(b)    Number of Demand Registrations. The Stockholder and the other Investors shall be collectively entitled to request up to a total of two (2) Demand Registrations (each of which shall, if it is an underwritten registration, reduce the number of available Underwritten Shelf Take-Downs pursuant toSection 1.1(e), and, vice versa, each Underwritten Shelf Take-Down shall reduce the number of available Demand Registrations that are underwritten registrations);provided,however, that a registration shall not count as a Demand Registration for this purpose unless and until the Stockholder and the other Investors are able to register and sell at least 75% of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration;provided, that the Company shall not be required to comply with a Demand Registration unless the aggregate gross proceeds from such offering are reasonably expected to be at least the lesser of (x) one-hundred million dollars ($100 million) and (y) the aggregate gross proceeds (not less than $50 million) reasonably expected from an Underwritten Shelf Take-Down of the total number of Registrable Securities then held by the Stockholder or any other Investors.

An Investor may, by written notice to the Company, withdraw its Registrable Securities from a Demand Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement. Upon receipt of notices from all applicable Investors to such effect, the Company shall cease all efforts to seek effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement, unless the Company intends to effect a primary offering of securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Any withdrawn Registration Statement shall not count against the limitation on the number of such Investor’s Demand Registrations set forth inSection (b).

(d)    Selection of Underwriters. If a Demand Registration is an underwritten offering, the Stockholder or any other Investor requesting such underwritten offering shall have the right to select the investment banking firm(s) and manager(s) to administer such underwritten offering, subject to the approval of the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

-4-

thisclause (ii), among such Persons in such manner as the Company may determine. If more than one Investor (and, if applicable, Other Stockholders) is participating in such Demand Registration or Underwritten Shelf Take-Down and the managing underwriters of such offering determine that a limited number of Registrable Securities may be included in such offering without reasonably being expected to adversely affect the success of the offering (including the price, timing or distribution of the securities to be sold in such offering), then the Registrable Securities that are included in such offering shall be allocatedpro rata among the participating Investors (and, if applicable, Other Stockholders) on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities initially requested to be sold by each such Investor (and, if applicable, Other Stockholders) in such offering.

1.4    Restrictions on Registration.

(a)    Right to Defer or Suspend Registration. The Company may, at its option, (x) defer, suspend or delay any Demand Registration or (y) require the Stockholder and the other Investors to suspend any offerings of Registrable Securities (including any Underwritten Shelf Take-Down) pursuant to a Registration Statement if the Company determines in good faith (after consultation with external legal counsel) that proceeding with the filing, effectiveness or use of any Registration Statement would (A) require the Company to publicly disclose materialnon-public information in such Registration Statement so that it would not be materially misleading, the disclosure of which (i) would not be required to be made at such time but for the filing, effectiveness or use of such Registration Statement and (ii) would, in the good faith judgment of the Company, have a material adverse effect on the Company or (B) be expected to materially impede, delay or interfere with, or require premature disclosure of, any pending negotiation or plan of the Company to effect a merger, acquisition, disposition, financing, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction. In the case of clause (A), upon disclosure of such materialnon-public information, the Company shall (x) notify the Stockholder and the other Investors whose Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement; (y) terminate any deferment or suspension it has put into effect; and (z) take such actions necessary to permit registered sales of Registrable Securities as required or contemplated by this Agreement, including, if necessary, preparation and filing of a post-effective amendment or prospectus supplement so that the Registration Statement and any prospectus forming a part thereof will not include an untrue statement of material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.

(b)    Limitation on Deferrals and Suspensions. The Company shall not be permitted to defer registration or require the Stockholder and the other Investors to suspend an offering pursuant toSection 1.4(a) if the duration of any such deferral or suspension would individually exceed sixty (60) consecutive days or if the duration of all such deferrals or suspensions would in the aggregate exceed one hundred twenty (120) days in any twelve (12) month period.

(c)    Withdrawal. If the Company delays or suspends a Demand Registration, the Investor that initiated such Demand Registration shall be entitled to withdraw its Demand Registration Request and, if it does so, such Demand Registration Request shall not count against the limitation on the number of such Investor’s Demand Registrations set forth inSection 1.2(b).

If within five (5) Business Days (or, in the event of a natural catastrophe or other exigent circumstances requiring a capital raise, such fewer number of Business Days as the Company shall determine in its reasonable discretion) of the receipt of such a written request from the Company, the Stockholder or any other Investor fails to provide to the Company any information relating to the Stockholder or such Investor, as applicable, that is required by applicable Law to be disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Company may exclude the Stockholder’s and such Investor’s, as applicable, Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.

The Stockholder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described inSection 1.7(a)(v),1.7(a)(vi)(B), 1.7(a)(vi)(C) or1.7(a)(vi)(D) hereof, to the extent that such event requires the discontinuance of the disposition of Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement or the related prospectus and such notice reasonably requests such discontinuance, that the Stockholder shall discontinue, and shall cause each Investor to discontinue, disposition of any Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement or the related prospectus until receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated bySection 1.7(a)(iii) hereof, which supplement or amendment shall be prepared and furnished as soon as practicable, or until the Stockholder and the other Investors are advised in writing by the Company that the use of the applicable prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any amended or supplemented prospectus or any additional or supplemental filings which are incorporated, or deemed to be incorporated, by reference in such prospectus (such period during which disposition is discontinued being an “Interruption Period”) and, if requested by the Company, the Stockholder shall, and shall cause each of the other Investors to, use its commercially reasonable efforts to destroy or return to the Company all copies then in its possession, other than permanent file copies then in such holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such request. As soon as practicable (and in any event no later than one (1) Business Day) after the Company has determined that the use of the applicable prospectus may

-12-

be resumed, the Company shall provide written notice to the Stockholder and the other Investors. In the event the Company invokes an Interruption Period hereunder, as soon as practicable (and in any event no later than one (1) Business Day) after the need for the Company to continue the Interruption Period ceases for any reason, the Company shall provide written notice to the Stockholder and the other Investors that such Interruption Period is no longer applicable. Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph to the contrary, no Interruption Period shall exceed sixty (60) days and, in any calendar year, no more than one hundred twenty (120) days in the aggregate may be part of an Interruption Period.

1.8    Registration Expenses.

(a)    The Company shall pay directly or promptly reimburse all costs, fees and expenses (other than Selling Expenses) incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with this Agreement, including, without limitation, (i) all SEC, FINRA and other registration and filing fees; (ii) all fees and expenses associated with filings to be made with, or the listing of any Registrable Securities on, any securities exchange orover-the-counter trading market on which the Registrable Securities are to be listed or quoted; (iii) all fees and expenses of complying with securities and blue sky laws (including fees and disbursements of counsel in connection therewith); (iv) all printing, messenger, telephone and delivery expenses (including the cost of distributing prospectuses in preliminary and final form as well as any supplements thereto); (v) all fees and expenses incurred in connection with any “road show” for underwritten offerings, including all costs of travel (commercial coach class only), lodging and meals and all costs to produce and disseminate an electronic “road show”; (vi) all transfer agent’s and registrar’s fees; (vii) all fees and expenses of counsel to the Company; (viii) all fees and expenses of the Company’s independent public accountants (including any fees and expenses arising from any special audits or “comfort letters”) and any other Persons retained by the Company in connection with or incident to any registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement; and (ix) all fees and expenses of underwriters (other than Selling Expenses) customarily paid by the issuers or sellers of securities (all such costs, fees and expenses, “Registration Expenses”). Each Investor shall pay the fees and expenses of any counsel engaged by such Investor and shall bear its respective Selling Expenses associated with a registered sale of its Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement.

(b)    The obligation of the Company to bear and pay the Registration Expenses shall apply irrespective of whether a registration, once properly demanded or requested, becomes effective or is withdrawn or suspended;provided, that the Registration Expenses for any Registration Statement withdrawn solely at the request of one or more Investor(s) (unless withdrawn following commencement of a suspension pursuant toSection 1.4(c)) shall be borne by such Investor(s).

1.9    Indemnification.

(a)    In connection with the registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, and hereby does indemnify and hold harmless, the Stockholder and the other Investors, their affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and partners and each Person who is a “controlling person” of the Stockholder or the other Investors (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) against, and pay and reimburse the Stockholder and the other Investors, affiliate,

-13-

director, officer, employee or partner or controlling person for any losses, claims, damages and liabilities (collectively, “Losses”) to which the Stockholder and the other Investors or any such affiliate, director, officer, employee or partner or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state blue sky or securities laws, any equivalentnon-U.S. securities Laws or otherwise, insofar as such Losses (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, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any “free writing prospectus” as such term is defined under Rule 433 under the Securities Act or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any document incorporated by reference therein or (ii) any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and the Company will pay and reimburse the Stockholder and the other Investors and each such affiliate, director, officer, employee, partner 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 Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Losses arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission, made in such Registration Statement, any such prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any “free writing prospectus” as such term is defined under Rule 433 under the Securities Act, or in any application, in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information prepared and furnished to the Company by the Stockholder, any other Investor or any such affiliate, director, officer, employee, partner and controlling person expressly for use therein andprovided,further, that the Company shall not be liable to the extent that any Losses arise out of or are based upon the use of any prospectus after such time as the Company has advised Stockholder or any other Investor in writing that a post-effective amendment or supplement thereto is required.

(b)    In connection with any Registration Statement in which the Stockholder or any other Investor is participating, the Stockholder and each other Investor will furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or prospectus and will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors and officers, each underwriter and each other Person who is a “controlling person” of the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) against any Losses to which the Company 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 (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 the Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary 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, or (iii) the failure of such Investor to deliver a prospectus in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act, but, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii), only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is made in such Registration Statement, any such prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any application, in each case in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information prepared and furnished to the Company by the Stockholder or any other Investor expressly for use therein, and the Stockholder and any such other Investor will reimburse the Company and each such

-14-

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 several and not joint for the Stockholder and each other Investor and shall be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by the Stockholder and each other Investor, respectively, from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.

(c)    Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (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 (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will 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,provided that the indemnifying party will be liable for one additional counsel if in the reasonable judgment of counsel for 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 will 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 will 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 thisSection 1.9 is legally 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, will 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 relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party will be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the 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 the Stockholder and any other Investor will be obligated to contribute pursuant to thisSection 1.9(e) will be limited to an amount equal to the proceeds received by the Stockholder and each such other Investor, respectively, in respect 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 Stockholder and each other Investor 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).

-15-

1.10    Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No Person may participate in any underwritten offering pursuant to this Agreement unless such Person (i) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements in customary form approved by the Persons entitled under this Agreement to approve such arrangements and (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 Investor included in any underwritten offering shall be required to make any representations or warranties to the Company or the underwriters (other than representations and warranties regarding (A) such Investor’s ownership of its Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering, (B) such Investor’s power and authority to effect such Transfer and (C) such matters pertaining to such Investor’s compliance with securities laws as may be reasonably requested by the managing underwriter(s)) or to undertake any indemnification obligations to the Company or the underwriters with respect thereto, except to the extent otherwise provided inSection 1.9 hereof.

1.11    Rule 144 and 144A Reporting.

(a)    With a view to making available the benefits provided by Rule 144 which may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and keep public information available at any time when the Company is subject to such reporting requirements.

Upon request of the Stockholder or the other Investors, the Company will deliver to the Stockholder and the other Investors a written statement as to whether it has complied with such informational and reporting requirements and will, within the limitations of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 (as such rule may be amended from time to time) or any similar rule enacted by the SEC, instruct the transfer agent to remove the restrictive legend affixed to any Registrable Securities to enable such shares to be sold in compliance with Rule 144 (as such rule may be amended from time to time) or any similar rule enacted by the SEC.

(b)    For purposes of facilitating sales pursuant to Rule 144A, so long as the Company is not subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Stockholder, each Investor and any prospective purchaser of the Stockholder’s or any Investor’s securities will have the right to obtain from the Company, upon written request of the Stockholder prior to the time of sale, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents that the Company would have been required to file if the Company were subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act as the Stockholder, the Investors or prospective purchaser may reasonably request in writing in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing the Stockholder or any other Investor, as applicable, to sell any such securities without registration.

-16-

1.12    Miscellaneous.

(a)    No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company represents and warrants that it has not entered into, and agrees that it will not enter into, any agreement with respect to its securities that violates or subordinates or is otherwise inconsistent with the rights granted to the Investors under this Agreement.

(b)    Adjustments Affecting Registrable Securities. The Company will not on its own initiative, except to the extent required by applicable Law or an enforceable court order, propose any of the following actions to be taken by the general meeting of shareholders after the date of this Agreement with respect to Registrable Securities if such actions would materially and adversely affect the ability of the Stockholder or the other Investors to include the Registrable Securities in a registration undertaken pursuant to this Agreement: (i) implementing Transfer restrictions on Registrable Securities, (ii) implementing limits on dispositions of Registrable Securities, (iii) adopting restrictions on the nature of Transferees of Registrable Securities or (iv) implementing or adopting any similar restrictions or limitations with respect to the Transfer of Registrable Securities in violation of the terms of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, any actions which occur by operation of Law, pursuant to an enforceable court order or are taken by the general meeting of shareholders shall not be deemed to be a violation of thisSection 1.12(b).

(c)    DTC Eligibility. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities, concurrently with the registration of such Registrable Securities pursuant to thisARTICLE I, to be eligible for the depository and book-entry transfer services of The Depository Trust Company.

1.13    Subject to Transfer Restrictions. For the avoidance of doubt, any exercise by any Investor of its rights pursuant toSection 1.1 orSection 1.2 shall at all times be subject to the limitations set forth inSection 2.1.
