2. REGISTRATION.
a. Mandatory Registration.
(i) Initial Mandatory Registration. The Company
shall prepare, and, as soon as practicable but in no event later than 45 days
-2-
after the date of issuance of the relevant Preferred Shares, file with the SEC
an Initial Registration Statement or Initial Registration Statements (as is
necessary) on Form S-3 covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities
issuable pursuant to the Initial Preferred Shares (the "Initial Registrable
Securities"). In the event that Form S-3 is unavailable for such a registration,
the Company shall use such other form as is available for such a registration,
subject to the provisions of Section 2(e). The Initial Registration Statement or
Initial Registration Statements prepared pursuant hereto shall register for
resale at least that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of
(x) 2.0 and (y) the number of Initial Registrable Securities as of the date
immediately preceding the date the Registration Statement is initially filed
with the SEC, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2(f). The Company
shall use its best efforts to have the Initial Registration Statement(s)
declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable, but in no event later than
120 days after the issuance of the relevant Preferred Shares.
(ii) Put Mandatory Registration. The Company shall
prepare, and, as soon as practicable but in no event later than ten days after
the Put Share Notice Date (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement),
file with the SEC a Put Registration Statement or Put Registration Statements
(as is necessary) on Form S-3 covering the resale of all of the Registrable
Securities issuable pursuant to the Put Preferred Shares covered by the Put
Share Notice (the "Put Registrable Securities"). In the event that Form S-3 is
unavailable for such a registration, the Company shall use such other form as is
available for such a registration, subject to the provisions of Section 2(e).
Any Put Registration Statement prepared pursuant hereto shall register for
resale at least that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of
(x) 2.0 and (y) the number of Put Registrable Securities as of the date
immediately preceding the date such Additional Registration Statement is
initially filed with the SEC, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2(f).
The Company shall use its best efforts to have the Put Registration Statement(s)
declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable, but in no event later than
90 days after the Put Share Notice Date.
b. Piggy-Back Registrations. If at any time prior to the
expiration of the Registration Period (as hereinafter defined) the Company
proposes to file with the SEC a Registration Statement relating to an offering
for its own account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its
securities (other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (or their equivalents at such
time) relating to securities to be issued solely in connection with any
acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in
connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans) the Company shall
promptly send to each Investor who is entitled to registration rights under this
Section 2(b) written notice of the Company's intention to file a Registration
Statement and of such Investor's rights under this Section 2(b) and, if within
twenty (20) days after receipt of such notice, such Investor shall so request in
writing, the Company shall include in such Registration Statement all or any
part of the Registrable Securities such Investor requests to be registered,
subject to the priorities set forth in Section 2(b) below. No right to
registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 2(b) shall be
construed to limit any registration required under Section 2(a). The obligations
of the Company under this Section 2(b) may be waived by Investors holding a
majority of the Registrable Securities. If an offering in connection with which
an Investor is entitled to registration under this Section 2(b) is an
underwritten offering, then each Investor whose Registrable Securities are
-3-
included in such Registration Statement shall, unless otherwise agreed by the
Company, offer and sell such Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering
using the same underwriter or underwriters and, subject to the provisions of
this Agreement, on the same terms and conditions as other shares of Common Stock
included in such underwritten offering. If a registration pursuant to this
Section 2(b) is to be an underwritten public offering and the managing
underwriter(s) advise the Company in writing, that in their reasonable good
faith opinion, marketing or other factors dictate that a limitation on the
number of shares of Common Stock which may be included in the Registration
Statement is necessary to facilitate and not adversely affect the proposed
offering, then the Company shall include in such registration: (1) first, all
securities the Company proposes to sell for its own account, (2) second, up to
the full number of securities proposed to be registered for the account of the
holders of securities entitled to inclusion of their securities in the
Registration Statement by reason of demand registration rights, and (3) third,
the securities requested to be registered by the Investors and other holders of
securities entitled to participate in the registration, as of the date hereof,
drawn from them pro rata based on the number each has requested to be included
in such registration.
c. Allocation of Registrable Securities. The initial number of
Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement and each increase
in the number of Registrable Securities included therein shall be allocated pro
rata among the Investors based on the number of Registrable Securities held by
each Investor at the time the Registration Statement covering such initial
number of Registrable Securities or increase thereof is declared effective by
the SEC. In the event that an Investor sells or otherwise transfers any of such
Person's Registrable Securities, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata
portion of the then remaining number of Registrable Securities included in such
Registration Statement for such transferor. Any shares of Common Stock included
in a Registration Statement and which remain allocated to any Person which
ceases to hold any Registrable Securities shall be allocated to the remaining
Investors, pro rata based on the number of Registrable Securities then held by
such Investors.
d. Legal Counsel. Subject to Section 5 hereof, the Buyers
holding a majority of the Registrable Securities shall have the right to select
one legal counsel to review and oversee any offering pursuant to this Section 2
("Legal Counsel"), which shall be Katten Muchin & Zavis or such other counsel as
thereafter designated by the holders of a majority of Registrable Securities.
The Company shall reasonably cooperate with Legal Counsel in performing the
Company's obligations under this Agreement.
e. Ineligibility for Form S-3. In the event that Form S-3 is
not available for any registration of Registrable Securities hereunder, the
Company shall (i) register the sale of the Registrable Securities on another
appropriate form and (ii) undertake to register the Registrable Securities on
Form S-3 as soon as such form is available, provided that the Company shall
maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement then in effect until
such time as a Registration Statement on Form S-3 covering the Registrable
Securities has been declared effective by the SEC.
-4-
f. Sufficient Number of Shares Registered. In the event the
number of shares available under a Registration Statement filed pursuant to
Section 2(a) is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities or an
Investor's allocated portion of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Section
2(c), the Company shall amend the Registration Statement, or file a new
Registration Statement (on the short form available therefor, if applicable), or
both, so as to cover at least 200% of such Registrable Securities (based on the
then current market price of the Common Stock), in each case, as soon as
practicable, but in any event not later than fifteen (15) days after the
necessity therefor arises. The Company shall use it best efforts to cause such
amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as
practicable following the filing thereof. For purposes of the foregoing
provision, the number of shares available under a Registration Statement shall
be deemed "insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities" if at any
time the number of Registrable Securities issued or issuable upon conversion of
the Preferred Shares is greater than the quotient determined by dividing (i) the
number of shares of Common Stock available for resale under such Registration
Statement by (ii) 1.5. For purposes of the calculation set forth in the
foregoing sentence, any restrictions on the convertibility of the Preferred
Shares shall be disregarded and such calculation shall assume that the Preferred
Shares are then convertible into shares of Common Stock at the then prevailing
Conversion Rate (as defined in the Company's Certificate of Designations).
g. Effect of Failure to Obtain and Maintain Effectiveness of
Registration Statement. If the Registration Statement covering the resale of all
of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares
covered by such Registration Statement and required to be filed by the Company
pursuant to this Agreement is not (i) filed within 45 days of the Initial
Closing Date or within ten days of the Put Share Notice Date as the case may be
(each, a "Scheduled Filing Date"), (ii) declared effective by the SEC on or
before the date which is 120 days after the Initial Closing Date or on or before
90 days after the Put Share Notice Date, as the case may be (each, a "Scheduled
Effective Date"), or (iii) if after the Registration Statement has been declared
effective by the SEC, other than days during an Allowable Grace Period (as
defined in Section 3(v)), available for the sales of all such shares of Common
Stock to be made pursuant to the respective Registration Statement (whether
because of a failure to keep the Registration Statement effective, to disclose
such information as is necessary for sales to be made pursuant to the
Registration Statement, to register sufficient shares of Common Stock or
otherwise), then, as partial relief for the damages to any holder by reason of
any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the underlying shares of
Common Stock (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies
available at law or in equity), the Company shall pay to each holder of
Preferred Shares an amount in cash per Preferred Share held (which relates to a
Registration Statement which was not declared effective on or before its
Scheduled Effective Date or pursuant to which sales cannot be made) equal to the
sum of:
(i) $150, if the Registration Statement is not
filed by the Scheduled Filing Date;
(ii) $150, if the Registration Statement is not
declared effective by the Scheduled Effective Date;
-5-
(iii) $5 multiplied by the sum of (x) the number of
days after the Scheduled Filing Date during which such Registration
Statement is not filed with the SEC, plus (y) the number of days after
the Scheduled Effective Date during which the Registration Statement is
not declared effective by the SEC, plus (z) the number of days (other
than days during an Allowable Grace Period) that sales cannot be made
pursuant to the Registration Statement after the Registration Statement
has been declared effective by the SEC.
The payments to which a holder shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 2(g)
are referred to herein as "Registration Delay Payments." Registration Delay
Payments shall be paid within five business days of the earlier of (i) the last
day of the month in which such payments were incurred or (ii) the date that the
violation which caused such payment is cured. In the event the Company fails to
make Registration Delay Payments in a timely manner, such Registration Delay
Payments shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (prorated for partial
months) until paid in full. If the Company fails to pay the Registration Delay
Payments, including any interest thereon, within 15 business days of the date
incurred, then the holder entitled to such payments shall have the right at any
time, so long as the Company continues to fail to make such payments, to require
the Company, upon written notice, to immediately issue, in lieu of the
Registration Delay Payments, including any interest thereon, the number of
shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (X) the sum of the Registration
Delay Payments and all interest accrued thereon divided by (Y) the Conversion
Price in effect on such Conversion Date as is specified by the holder in writing
to the Company.
3. RELATED OBLIGATIONS.
Whenever an Investor has requested that any Registrable Securities be
registered pursuant to Section 2(b) or at such time as the Company is obligated
to file a Registration Statement with the SEC pursuant to Section 2(a) or 2(g),
the Company will use its best efforts to effect the registration of the
Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition
thereof and, pursuant thereto, the Company shall have the following obligations:
a. The Company shall promptly prepare and file with the SEC a
Registration Statement with respect to the Initial Registrable Securities (on or
prior to the 45th day after the Initial Closing Date) and with respect to the
Put Registrable Securities (on or prior to the date which is ten days after a
Put Share Notice Date) for the registration of Registrable Securities pursuant
to Section 2(a) and use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement
relating to the Registrable Securities to become effective as soon as possible
after such filing (but, in the case of the Initial Registrable Securities, in no
event later than 120 days after the Initial Closing Date, in the case of the Put
Registrable Securities and in no event later than 90 days after the Put Share
Notice Date), and keep such Registration Statement effective pursuant to Rule
415 at all times until the earlier of (i) the date as of which the Investors may
sell all of the Registrable Securities without restriction pursuant to Rule
144(k) promulgated under the 1933 Act (or successor thereto) or (ii) the date on
which (A) the Investors shall have sold all the Registrable Securities and (B)
-6-
none of the Preferred Shares is outstanding (the "Registration Period"), which
Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and
prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or
necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which
they were made, not misleading.
b. The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such
amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a
Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such
Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424
promulgated under the 1933 Act, as may be necessary to keep such Registration
Statement effective at all times during the Registration Period, and, during
such period, comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the
disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by such
Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities
shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of
disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in such Registration
Statement. In the case of amendments and supplements to a Registration Statement
which are required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to
this Section 3(b)) by reason of the Company filing a report on Form 10-K, Form
10-Q or Form 8-K or any analogous report under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the "1934 Act"), the Company shall file such amendments or supplements
with the SEC on the same day on which the 1934 Act report is filed which created
the requirement for the Company to amend or supplement the Registration
Statement.
c. The Company shall permit Legal Counsel to review and
comment upon a Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto
at least seven (7) days prior to their filing with the SEC, and not file any
document in a form to which Legal Counsel reasonably objects. The Company shall
not submit a request for acceleration of the effectiveness of a Registration
Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto without the prior approval of
Legal Counsel, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company
shall furnish to Legal Counsel, without charge, (i) any correspondence from the
SEC or the staff of the SEC to the Company or its representatives relating to
any Registration Statement, (ii) promptly after the same is prepared and filed
with the SEC, one copy of any Registration Statement and any amendment(s)
thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents
incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits and (iii) upon the
effectiveness of any Registration Statement, one copy of the prospectus included
in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto.
d. The Company shall furnish to each Investor whose
Registrable Securities are included in any Registration Statement, without
charge, (i) promptly after the same is prepared and filed with the SEC, at least
one copy of such Registration Statement and any amendment(s) thereto, including
financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by
reference and all exhibits, the prospectus included in such Registration
Statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and, with regards to such
Registration Statement(s), any correspondence by or on behalf of the Company to
the SEC or the staff of the SEC and any correspondence from the SEC or the staff
-7-
of the SEC to the Company or its representatives, (ii) upon the effectiveness of
any Registration Statement, ten (10) copies of the prospectus included in such
Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such other
number of copies as such Investor may reasonably request) and (iii) such other
documents, including copies of any preliminary or final prospectus, as such
Investor may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the
disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Investor.
e. The Company shall use its best efforts to (i) register and
qualify the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement under
such other securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions in the United
States as Legal Counsel or any Investor reasonably requests, (ii) prepare and
file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including post-effective
amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be
necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period,
(iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations
and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and
(iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the
Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that
the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition
thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not
otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(e), (y) subject itself
to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to
service of process in any such jurisdiction. The Company shall promptly notify
Legal Counsel and each Investor who holds Registrable Securities of the receipt
by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the
registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale
under the securities or "blue sky" laws of any jurisdiction in the United States
or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threatening of any
proceeding for such purpose.
f. In the event Investors who hold a majority of the
Registrable Securities being offered in the offering select underwriters for the
offering, the Company shall enter into and perform its obligations under an
underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, including, without
limitation, customary indemnification and contribution obligations, with the
underwriters of such offering.
g. As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such
event, the Company shall notify Legal Counsel and each Investor in writing of
the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in a
Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a
material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading, and promptly prepare a supplement or
amendment to such Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or
omission, and deliver ten (10) copies of such supplement or amendment to Legal
Counsel and each Investor (or such other number of copies as Legal Counsel or
such Investor may reasonably request). The Company shall also promptly notify
Legal Counsel and each Investor in writing (i) when a prospectus or any
prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when a
Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective
(notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to Legal Counsel and each
Investor by facsimile on the same day of such effectiveness and by overnight
-8-
mail), (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to a
Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information, and (iii)
of the Company's reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to a
Registration Statement would be appropriate.
h. The Company shall use its best efforts to prevent the
issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of a
Registration Statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any of the
Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or
suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at
the earliest possible moment and to notify Legal Counsel and each Investor who
holds Registrable Securities being sold (and, in the event of an underwritten
offering, the managing underwriters) of the issuance of such order and the
resolution thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat
of any proceeding for such purpose.
i. At the request of any Investor, the Company shall furnish
to such Investor, on the date of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement
and thereafter from time to time on such dates as an Investor may reasonably
request (i) a letter, dated such date, from the Company's independent certified
public accountants in form and substance as is customarily given by independent
certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering,
addressed to the underwriters, and (ii) an opinion, dated as of such date, of
counsel representing the Company for purposes of such Registration Statement, in
form, scope and substance as is customarily given in an underwritten public
offering, addressed to the Investors.
j. The Company shall make available for inspection by (i) any
Buyer, (ii) Legal Counsel, (iii) any underwriter participating in any
disposition pursuant to a Registration Statement, (iv) one firm of accountants
or other agents retained by the Investors, and (v) one firm of attorneys
retained by such underwriters (collectively, the "Inspectors") all pertinent
financial and other records, and pertinent corporate documents and properties of
the Company (collectively, the "Records"), as shall be reasonably deemed
necessary by each Inspector, and cause the Company's officers, directors and
employees to supply all information which any Inspector may reasonably request;
provided, however, that each Inspector shall agree to sign a confidentiality
agreement covering the Records (in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company )
and shall hold in strict confidence and shall not make any disclosure (except to
an Investor) or use of any Record or other information which the Company
determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which determination the
Inspectors are so notified, unless (a) the disclosure of such Records is
necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration
Statement or is otherwise required under the 1933 Act, (b) the release of such
Records is ordered pursuant to a final, non-appealable subpoena or order from a
court or government body of competent jurisdiction, or (c) the information in
such Records has been made generally available to the public other than by
disclosure in violation of this or any other agreement of which the Inspector
has knowledge. Each Investor agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure
of such Records is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent
jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Company and allow
the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent
disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, the Records deemed
confidential.
-9-
k. The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any
disclosure of information concerning an Investor provided to the Company unless
(i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state
securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid
or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement, (iii) the
release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other final,
non-appealable order from a court or governmental body of competent
jurisdiction, or (iv) such information has been made generally available to the
public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement or any other
agreement. The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of
such information concerning an Investor is sought in or by a court or
governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt
written notice to such Investor and allow such Investor, at the Investor's
expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain
a protective order for, such information.
l. The Company shall use its best efforts either to (i) cause
all the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be listed
on each securities exchange on which securities of the same class or series
issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such
Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange, or
(ii) secure designation and quotation of all the Registrable Securities covered
by the Registration Statement on The Nasdaq National Market and, without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, to arrange for at least two market
makers to register with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
("NASD") as such with respect to such Registrable Securities. The Company shall
pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under
this Section 3(l).
m. The Company shall cooperate with the Investors who hold
Registrable Securities being offered and, to the extent applicable, any managing
underwriter or underwriters, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery
of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legend) representing the
Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to a Registration Statement and
enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may
be, as the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, or, if there is no
managing underwriter or underwriters, the Investors may reasonably request and
registered in such names as the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, or
the Investors may request.
n. The Company shall provide a transfer agent and registrar of
all such Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of such
Registration Statement.
o. If requested by the managing underwriters or an Investor,
the Company shall (i) immediately incorporate in a prospectus supplement or
post-effective amendment such information as the managing underwriters and the
Investors agree should be included therein relating to the sale and distribution
of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with
respect to the number of Registrable Securities being sold to such underwriters,
the purchase price being paid therefor by such underwriters and any other terms
of the underwritten (or best efforts underwritten) offering of the Registrable
Securities to be sold in such offering; (ii) make all required filings of such
prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as notified of the
-10-
matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective
amendment; and (iii) supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement
if requested by a shareholder of such Registrable Securities.
p. The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the
Registrable Securities covered by the applicable Registration Statement to be
registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities
as may be necessary to consummate the disposition of such Registrable
Securities.
q. The Company shall make generally available to its security
holders as soon as practical, but not later than 90 days after the close of the
period covered thereby, an earnings statement (in form complying with the
provisions of Rule 158 under the 1933 Act) covering a twelve-month period
beginning not later than the first day of the Company's fiscal quarter next
following the effective date of the Registration Statement.
r. The Company shall otherwise use its best efforts to comply
with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC in connection with any
registration hereunder.
s. Within two (2) business days after the Registration
Statement which includes the Registrable Securities is ordered effective by the
SEC, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to
deliver, to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities (with copies to
the Investors whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration
Statement) confirmation that the Registration Statement has been declared
effective by the SEC in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.
t. For each calendar quarter beginning in the quarter in which
the initial Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to Section 2(a)
is declared effective and thereafter so long as any Preferred Shares are
outstanding, the Company shall deliver (or cause its transfer agent to deliver)
to each Investor a written report notifying the Investors of any occurrence
which prohibits the Company from issuing Common Stock upon conversion of the
Preferred Shares. The report shall also specify (i) the total number of
Preferred Shares outstanding as of the end of the quarter, (ii) the total number
of shares of Common Stock issued upon all conversions of Preferred Shares prior
to the end of the quarter, (iii) the total number of shares of Common Stock
which are reserved for issuance upon conversion of the Preferred Shares as of
the end of the quarter, and (iv) the total number of shares of Common Stock
which may thereafter be listed or issued by the Company upon conversion of the
Preferred Shares before the Company would exceed the Exchange Cap (as defined in
the Certificate of Designations). The Company (or its transfer agent) shall
deliver the report for each quarter to each Investor prior to the tenth day of
the calendar month following the quarter to which the report relates. In
addition, the Company (or its transfer agent) shall provide, within 15 days
after delivery to the Company of a written request by an Investor, any of the
information enumerated in clauses (i) - (iv) of this Section 3(t) as of the date
of the request.
-11-
u. The Company shall take all other reasonable actions
necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by the Investors of Registrable
Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement.
v. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 3(g),
at any time after the applicable Registration Statement has been declared
effective by the SEC, the Company may delay the disclosure of material
non-public information concerning the Company the disclosure of which at the
time is not, in the good faith opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company
and its counsel, in the best interest of the Company and, in the opinion of
counsel to the Company, otherwise required (a "Grace Period"); provided, that
the Company shall promptly (i) notify the Investors in writing of the existence
of material non-public information giving rise to a Grace Period (provided that
in each notice the Company will not disclose the content of such material
non-public information to the Investors) and the date on which the Grace Period
will begin, and (ii) notify the Investors in writing of the date on which the
Grace Period ends; and, provided further, that all Grace Periods shall not
exceed an aggregate of 30 days in any consecutive 365 day period with no more
than 15 consecutive days and during any consecutive 365 day period, there shall
be an aggregate of not more than two Grace Periods (an "Allowable Grace
Period"). For purposes of determining the length of a Grace Period above, the
Grace Period shall begin on and include the date the holders receive the notice
referred to in clause (i) and shall end on and include the later of the date the
holders receive the notice referred to in clause (ii) and the date referred to
in such notice. The provisions of Sections 2(g) and 3(h) hereof shall not be
applicable during the period of any Allowable Grace Period. Upon expiration of
the Grace Period, the Company shall again be bound by the first sentence of
Section 3(g) with respect to the information giving rise thereto unless such
material non-public information is no longer applicable. In the event there is a
Grace Period, the Maturity Date (as defined in the Certificate of Designations)
shall be delayed by two (2) days for each day in the Grace Period as provided in
the Certificate of Designations.
4. OBLIGATIONS OF THE INVESTORS.
a. At least seven (7) business days prior to the first
anticipated filing date of a Registration Statement, the Company shall notify
each Investor in writing of the information the Company requires from each such
Investor if such Investor elects to have any of such Investor's Registrable
Securities included in such Registration Statement. It shall be a condition
precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration
pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of a
particular Investor that such Investor shall furnish to the Company such
information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the
intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it as shall
be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities
and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the
Company may reasonably request.
b. Each Investor, by such Investor's acceptance of the
Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably
requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of any
-12-
Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Investor has notified the Company
in writing of such Investor's election to exclude all of such Investor's
Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.
c. In the event any Investor elects to participate in an
underwritten public offering pursuant to Section 2, each such Investor agrees to
enter into and perform such Investor's obligations under an underwriting
agreement, in usual and customary form, including, without limitation, customary
indemnification and contribution obligations (only with respect to violations
which occur in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in
writing to the Company by such Investor expressly for use in the Registration
Statement for such underwritten public offering), with the managing underwriter
of such offering and take such other actions as are reasonably required in order
to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities, unless
such Investor notifies the Company in writing of such Investor's election to
exclude all of such Investor's Registrable Securities from such Registration
Statement.
d. Each Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from
the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(h)
or the first sentence of 3(g), such Investor will immediately discontinue
disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement(s)
covering such Registrable Securities until such Investor's receipt of the copies
of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(h) or the
first sentence of 3(g). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company
shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to a
transferee of an Investor in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of
Designations in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect
to which an Investor has entered into a contract for sale prior to the
Investor's receipt of a notice from the Company of the happening of any event of
the kind described in Section 3(h) or the first sentence of 3(g) and for which
the Investor has not yet settled.
e. No Investor may participate in any underwritten
registration hereunder unless such Investor (i) agrees to sell such Investor's
Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements
approved by the Investors entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements, (ii)
completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities,
underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms
of such underwriting arrangements, and (iii) agrees to pay its pro rata share of
all underwriting discounts and commissions.
5. EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION.
All reasonable expenses, other than underwriting discounts and
commissions, incurred in connection with registrations, filings or
qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3, including, without limitation, all
registration, listing and qualifications fees, printers and accounting fees, and
fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and fees and disbursements of
Legal Counsel, shall be paid by the Company, provided, however, the fees and
expenses of Legal Counsel which the Company is required to pay pursuant to this
Section 5 shall not exceed, when aggregated with fees and expenses paid pursuant
to Section 4(i) of the Securities Purchase Agreement, $50,000.
-13-
6. INDEMNIFICATION.
In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a
Registration Statement under this Agreement:
a. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will,
and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Investor who holds
such Registrable Securities, the directors, officers, partners, employees,
agents, representatives of, and each Person, if any, who controls any Investor
within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "1934 Act"), and any underwriter (as defined in the 1933 Act) for
the Investors, and the directors and officers of, and each Person, if any, who
controls, any such underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934
Act (each, an "Indemnified Person"), against any losses, claims, damages,
liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, attorneys' fees,
amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several, (collectively,
"Claims") incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim,
suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by
or before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency,
body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified
party is or may be a party thereto ("Indemnified Damages"), to which any of them
may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether
commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i)
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a
Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing
made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities
or other "blue sky" laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are
offered ("Blue Sky Filing"), or the omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of
a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus if used prior to the
effective date of such Registration Statement, or contained in the final
prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment
thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission
to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made
therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were
made, not misleading, (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of
the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any
state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer
or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement or
(iv) any violation of this Agreement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i)
through (iv) being, collectively, "Violations"). The Company shall reimburse
each Indemnified Person promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and
payable, for any legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in
connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement
contained in this Section 6(a): (i) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified
Person arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon
and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such
Indemnified Person or underwriter for such Indemnified Person expressly for use
in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or any such
amendment thereof or supplement thereto, if such prospectus was timely made
-14-
available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(d); (ii) with respect to any
preliminary prospectus, shall not inure to the benefit of any such person from
whom the person asserting any such Claim purchased the Registrable Securities
that are the subject thereof (or to the benefit of any person controlling such
person) if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the
preliminary prospectus was corrected in the prospectus, as then amended or
supplemented, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company
pursuant to Section 3(d), and the Indemnified Person was promptly advised in
writing not to use the incorrect prospectus prior to the use giving rise to a
violation and such Indemnified Person, notwithstanding such advice, used it;
(iii) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on a failure of
the Investor to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made
available by the Company, if such prospectus was timely made available by the
Company pursuant to Section 3(d); and (iv) shall not apply to amounts paid in
settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written
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 Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer or
disposition of the Registrable Securities by the Investors.
b. In connection with any Registration Statement in which an
Investor is participating, each such Investor agrees to severally and not
jointly indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same
manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, each
of its officers who signs the Registration Statement, each Person, if any, who
controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act
(collectively and together with an Indemnified Person, an "Indemnified Party"),
against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become
subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or
Indemnified Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case
to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such
Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement; and,
subject to Section 6(d), such Investor will reimburse any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or
defending any such Claim; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement
contained in this Section 6(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution
contained in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any
Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of such
Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further,
however, that the Investor shall be liable under this Section 6(b) for only that
amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to
such Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such
Registration Statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect
regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party
and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors
pursuant to Section 9. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(b) with
respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any
Indemnified Party if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained
in the preliminary prospectus was corrected on a timely basis in the prospectus,
as then amended or supplemented.
-15-
c. The Company shall be entitled to receive indemnities from
underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry
professionals participating in any distribution, to the same extent as provided
above, with respect to information such persons so furnished in writing
expressly for inclusion in the Registration Statement.
d. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or
Indemnified Party under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any
action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving
a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in
respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section
6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement
thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and,
to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other
indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof
with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified
Person or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be; provided, however, that an
Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own
counsel with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in
the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the
representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party
and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential
differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any
other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Company shall
pay reasonable fees for only one separate legal counsel for the Investors, and
such legal counsel shall be selected by the Investors holding a majority in
interest of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement to
which the Claim relates. The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person shall
cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation
or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall
furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the
Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person which relates to such action or claim.
The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person
fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement
negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any
settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its written
consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably
withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without
the consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person, consent to entry of
any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not
include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff
to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person of a release from all liability
in respect to such claim or litigation. Following indemnification as provided
for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the
Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms
or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made.
The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a
reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such
indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified
Party under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is
prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.
-16-
e. The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be
made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the
investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages
are incurred.
f. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in
addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or
Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any
liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.
7. CONTRIBUTION.
To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is
prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum
contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable
under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that:
(i) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable
Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by
such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.
8. REPORTS UNDER THE 1934 ACT.
As long as any Preferred Shares or Registrable Securities
remain outstanding, the Company, with a view to making available to the
Investors the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act or any other
similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Investors
to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration ("Rule
144"), agrees to use its best efforts to:
a. make and keep public information available, as those terms
are understood and defined in Rule 144;
b. file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act so long as
the Company remains subject to such requirements (it being understood that
nothing herein shall limit the Company's obligations under Section 4(c) of the
Securities Purchase Agreement) and the filing of such reports and other
documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and
c. furnish to each Investor so long as such Investor owns
Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, (i) a written statement by the
Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the
1933 Act and the 1934 Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly
report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the
Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to
permit the Investors to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without
registration.
-17-
9. ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.
The rights under this Agreement shall be automatically
assignable by the Investors to any transferee of all or any portion of
Registrable Securities if: (i) the Investor agrees in writing with the
transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of such agreement is
furnished to the Company within a reasonable time after such assignment; (ii)
the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer or assignment,
furnished with written notice of (a) the name and address of such transferee or
assignee, and (b) the securities with respect to which such registration rights
are being transferred or assigned; (iii) immediately following such transfer or
assignment the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or
assignee is restricted under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws;
(iv) at or before the time the Company receives the written notice contemplated
by clause (ii) of this sentence the transferee or assignee agrees in writing
with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions contained herein; and (v)
such transfer shall have been made in accordance with the applicable
requirements of the Securities Purchase Agreement.
10. AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.
Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the observance
thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and
either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the
Company and Investors who then hold two-thirds of the Registrable Securities.
Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 10 shall be
binding upon each Investor and the Company. No such amendment shall be effective
to the extent that it applies to less than all of the holders of the Registrable
Securities. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or
consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of this Agreement
unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to this
Agreement.
11. MISCELLANEOUS.
a. A Person is deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities
whenever such Person owns or is deemed to own of record such Registrable
Securities. If the Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or
elections from two or more Persons with respect to the same Registrable
Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or
election received from the registered owner of such Registrable Securities.
-18-
b. Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications
required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement must be in

consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by
mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under
this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient
service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed

EXHIBIT A
FORM OF NOTICE OF EFFECTIVENESS
OF REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Attn:
Re: Immunomedics, Inc.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We are counsel to Immunomedics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), and have represented the Company in connection with that certain
Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") entered into by and
among the Company and the buyers named therein (collectively, the "Holders")
pursuant to which the Company issued to the Holders shares of its Series F
Convertible Preferred Shares, par value $.01 per share, (the "Preferred Shares")
convertible into shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.01 per share
(the "Common Stock"). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company also has
entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Holders (the "Registration
Rights Agreement") pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to
register the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights
Agreement), including the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the
Preferred Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act").
In connection with the Company's obligations under the Registration Rights
Agreement, on ____________ ___, 1998, the Company filed a Registration Statement
on Form S-3 (File No. 333-_____________) (the "Registration Statement") with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") relating to the Registrable
Securities which names each of the Holders as a selling stockholder thereunder.
In connection with the foregoing, we advise you that a member of the
SEC's staff has advised us by telephone that the SEC has entered an order
declaring the Registration Statement effective under the 1933 Act at [ENTER TIME
OF EFFECTIVENESS] on [ENTER DATE OF EFFECTIVENESS] and we have no knowledge,
after telephonic inquiry of a member of the SEC's staff, that any stop order
suspending its effectiveness has been issued or that any proceedings for that
purpose are pending before, or threatened by, the SEC and the Registrable
Securities are available for resale under the 1933 Act pursuant to the
Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
[ISSUER'S COUNSEL]
