The definition of the term "CS Required Minimum" in Section 1 of the Registration Rights Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: ""CS Required Minimum" means, as of any date, the sum of (1) the maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock then issued or potentially issuable in the future upon the conversion in full of all First Shares and all Second Shares and (2) two times the maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock then issued or potentially issuable in the future upon the exercise in full of all Warrants, assuming that any previously unexercised Warrants are held until the tenth anniversary of Closing or, if earlier, until expired." 3. Effectiveness Period. The last sentence of Section 2(a) of the Registration Rights Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: "The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Conversion Shares Registration Statement and the Note Shares Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof, but in any event, with respect to the Conversion Shares Registration Statement only, prior to the Required Effectiveness Date, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act (subject to Section 3(m)) until, with respect to the Note Shares Registration Statement, the date which is two years after the date that the Note Shares Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission and, with respect to the Conversion Shares Registration Statement, the date which is ten years after the date that the Conversion Shares Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission, or, in each case, such earlier date when all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold or may be sold in any calendar quarter pursuant to Rule 144(k) (as the context requires, the "Effectiveness Period")." 4.
