(c)            The rights of the Securityholders (other than a Securityholder exercising a demand pursuant to Section 3.1(a)) to participate in Underwritten Offerings as provided in this Section 3.1 are hereinafter referred to as “piggyback rights.”

 

3.2            Limitations on Demand and Piggyback Rights.

 

(a)            Any demand for an Underwritten Offering, and the exercise of any piggyback registration rights, will be subject to the constraints of any applicable lockup arrangements (with the Company or any underwriters), and any such demand must be deferred until such lockup arrangements no longer apply, and a demand for an Underwritten Offering hereunder may not be made more than once in any four (4)-month period. If a demand has been made for an Underwritten Offering, no further demands may be made so long as the related offering is still being pursued. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Securityholders will not have piggyback or other registration rights with respect to the following registered primary offerings by the Company: (i) a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans; (ii) a registration on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (or other similar successor forms then in effect under the Securities Act); (iii) a registration pursuant to which the Company is offering to exchange its own Securities for other Securities; (iv) a registration statement relating solely to dividend reinvestment or similar plans; (v) a shelf registration statement pursuant to which only the initial purchasers and subsequent transferees of debt securities of the Company or any Subsidiary that are convertible for common equity and that are initially issued pursuant to Rule 144A and/or Regulation S of the Securities Act may resell such notes and sell the common equity into which such notes may be converted; (vi) a registration where the Registrable Securities are not being sold for cash; (vii) an exchange registration; or (viii) a registration of Securities where the offering is a bona fide offering of debt securities, even if such Securities are convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Shares.

 

(b)            The Company may postpone the filing or effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement or suspend the effectiveness or use of any Shelf Registration Statement for a reasonable “blackout period” not in excess of ninety (90) days if the board of directors of the Company determines in good faith that such registration or offering: (i) could materially interfere with a bona fide business, reorganization, acquisition, divestiture or financing transaction of the Company or its Subsidiaries; (ii) could require disclosure of material, non-public information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential; or (iii) is reasonably likely to require premature disclosure of information, the premature disclosure of which could materially and adversely affect the Company; provided that the Company shall not delay the filing of any demanded registration statement more than once in any twelve (12)-month period (except that the Company shall be able to use this right more than once in any twelve (12)-month period if the Company is exercising such right during the 15-day period prior to the Company’s regularly scheduled quarterly earnings announcement and the total number of days of postponement in such twelve (12)-month period does not exceed ninety (90) days). The blackout period will end upon the earlier to occur of, (i) in the case of a bona fide business, reorganization, acquisition, divestiture or financing transaction, a date not later than ninety (90) days from the date such deferral commenced, and (ii) in the case of other disclosure of non-public information, the earlier to occur of (x) the filing by the Company of its next succeeding Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or (y) the date upon which such information is otherwise publicly disclosed or becomes public knowledge.

(i)            make such representations and warranties to the selling Securityholders and the underwriters, if any, in form, substance and scope as are customarily made by issuers to underwriters in similar Underwritten Offering;

 

(ii)            obtain opinions of counsel to the Company covering the matters customarily covered in opinions requested in sales of securities or Underwritten Offering;

 

(iii)            obtain “cold comfort” letters and updates thereof (including, without limitation, any such audits and comfort letters relating to financial statements pursuant to Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X and Article 11 thereunder) from the Company’s independent certified public accountants, if permissible, addressed to the underwriters, which letters shall be customary in form and shall cover matters of the type customarily covered in “cold comfort” letters to underwriters in connection with primary Underwritten Offerings; and

 

(h)            to the extent requested and customary for the relevant transaction, enter into a securities sales agreement with the Securityholders providing for, among other things, the appointment of such representative as agent for the selling Securityholders for the purpose of soliciting purchases of Registrable Securities, which agreement shall be customary in form, substance and scope and shall contain customary representations, warranties and covenants.

 

The above shall be done at such times as customarily occur in similar Underwritten Offerings.

 

12

 

 

5.4            Due Diligence. In connection with each Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities to be sold by Securityholders, the Company will, in accordance with customary practice, cooperate with such Securityholders to make available for inspection by underwriters and any counsel or accountant retained by such underwriters all relevant financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and cause appropriate officers, managers, employees, outside counsel and accountants of the Company to supply all information reasonably requested by any such underwriter, counsel or accountant in connection with their due diligence exercise, including through in-person meetings, but subject to customary privilege constraints and confidentiality obligations.

 

5.5            Information from Securityholders. Each Securityholder that holds Registrable Securities will promptly furnish to the Company such information regarding itself as is required to be included in the Shelf Registration Statement or is otherwise required by FINRA or the SEC in connection with such Shelf Registration Statement or Underwritten Offering, and such information regarding the ownership of Registrable Securities by such Securityholder and the proposed distribution by such Securityholder of such Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing. If a Securityholder does not provide the information reasonably requested by the Company pursuant to this Section 5.5, the Company shall have the right to exclude from the Shelf Registration Statement or Underwritten Offering the Registrable Securities of such Securityholder.

 

5.6            Expenses. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration statement or registered offering covering Registrable Securities held by the Securityholders will be borne by the Company. All Selling Expenses attributable to the sale of Registrable Securities sold for the account of the Securityholders shall be borne by the Securityholders of the securities included in such registered offering.

 

Article VI
INDEMNIFICATION

 

6.1            Indemnification by the Company. In the event of any registration under the Securities Act by any registration statement pursuant to rights granted in this Agreement of Registrable Securities held by Securityholders, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless Securityholders, their officers, directors and affiliates, and each underwriter of such securities and each other Person, if any, who Controls any Securityholder or such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (including reasonable documented legal fees and costs of court), joint or several, to which Securityholders or such underwriter or controlling Person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, including any amount paid in settlement of any litigation commenced or threatened, and shall promptly reimburse such Persons, as and when incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating any claims and defending any actions, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or any actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, any blue sky laws, securities laws or other applicable laws of any state or country in which such Shares are offered and relating to action taken or action or inaction required of the Company in connection with such offering, or arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact: (a) contained, on its applicable effective date, in any registration statement under which such securities were registered under the Securities Act or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing, or which arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; or (b) included in any preliminary prospectus, if used prior to the effective date of such registration statement, or in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have filed with the SEC any amendment or supplement to the final prospectus), or which arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements in such prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and will reimburse Securityholders and each such underwriter and each such controlling Person for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage or liability; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any Securityholder or its underwriters or controlling Persons in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement or prospectus or such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of any Securityholder or any such underwriter specifically for use in the preparation thereof.

 

13

 

 

6.2            Indemnification by Securityholders. Each Securityholder as a condition to including Registrable Securities in such registration statement will indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in Section 6.1 hereof) the Company, each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who shall sign the registration statement, and any Person who Controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, (a) with respect to any statement or omission from such registration statement, or any amendment or supplement to it, if such statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company in writing by such Securityholder specifically regarding such Securityholder for use in the preparation of such registration statement or amendment or supplement, and (b) with respect to compliance by such Securityholder with applicable laws in effecting the sale or other disposition of the securities covered by such registration statement.

 

6.3            Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action involving a claim referred to in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2, the indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made or may be made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to such indemnifying party of the commencement of the action. The failure of any indemnified party to give notice shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations in this Article VI, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by the failure to give notice. If any such action is brought against an indemnified party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense of the action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election to assume defense of the action, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses incurred by the latter in connection with the action’s defense other than reasonable costs of investigation. An indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any action or proceeding and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at such indemnified party’s expense unless (a) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, which authorization shall not be unreasonably withheld; (b) the indemnifying party has not assumed the defense and employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party within thirty (30) days after notice of any such action or proceeding; or (c) the named parties to any such action or proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have been advised by such counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to the indemnified party that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action or proceeding on behalf of the indemnified party), it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to all local counsel which is necessary, in the good faith opinion of both counsel for the indemnifying party and counsel for the indemnified party in order to adequately represent the indemnified parties) for the indemnified party and that all such reasonable fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred upon written request and presentation of invoices. Whether or not a defense is assumed by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its consent (not to be unreasonably withheld). No indemnifying party will consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which (a) does not include as an unconditional term the giving by the claimant or plaintiff, to the indemnified party, of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation; or (b) involves the imposition of equitable remedies or the imposition of any non-financial obligations on the indemnified party.

 

14

 

 

6.4            Contribution. If the indemnification required by this Article VI from the indemnifying party is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any indemnifiable losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (a) the relative benefit of the indemnifying and indemnified parties, and (b) if the allocation in clause (a) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefit referred to in clause (a) and also the relative fault of the indemnified and indemnifying parties, in connection with the actions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by a party shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by it bear to the total amounts (including, in the case of any underwriter, any underwriting commissions and discounts) received by each other party. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or parties, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damage, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The Company and Securityholders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6.4 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the prior provisions of this Section 6.4.

 

15

 

 

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6.4, no indemnifying party shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the securities were offered to the public by such indemnifying party exceeds the amount of any damages which such indemnifying party has otherwise been required to pay by reason of an untrue statement or omission. 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 a fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

Article VII
OTHER AGREEMENTS

 

7.1            Assignment. No Securityholder shall assign all or any part of this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company (which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that without the prior written consent of the Company, any Securityholder may, in connection with its sale or other transfer of Registrable Securities (including any Series A Convertible Preferred Stock convertible into Registrable Securities) to any Person (subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Certificate of Designation) assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of such Registrable Securities to any Person if such Person becomes a party hereto by executing and delivering an assignment and joinder agreement to the Company, substantially in the form of Exhibit A to this Agreement, provided that such Registrable Securities remain Registrable Securities following such sale or other transfer. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding on the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

 

7.2            Merger or Consolidation. In the event the Company engages in a merger or consolidation in which the Registrable Securities are converted into securities of another company that remain Registrable Securities, appropriate arrangements will be made so that the registration rights provided under this Agreement continue to be provided to Securityholders by the issuer of such securities.

 

7.3            Limited Liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, neither the members, general partners, limited partners or managing directors, or any directors or officers of any members, general or limited partner, advisory director, nor any future members, general partners, limited partners, advisory directors or managing directors, if any, of any Securityholder shall have any personal liability for performance of any obligation of such Securityholder under this Agreement in excess of the respective capital contributions of such members, general partners, limited partners, advisory directors or managing directors to such Securityholder. No officer, director or employee of the Company shall have any personal liability for the performance of any obligation of the Company under this Agreement.

 

7.4            Rule 144. If the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company will file any reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and it will take such further action as any Securityholder may reasonably request, so as to enable such Securityholder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitations of the exemptions provided by (a) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such Rule may be amended from time to time, or (b) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the request of any Securityholder, the Company will deliver to such Securityholder a written statement (with e-mail being sufficient) as to whether it has complied with such requirements, including using commercially reasonable efforts to cause counsel to the Company to deliver customary legal opinions in connection with the removal of any restrictive legends in connection with a sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 7.4 shall not in any way limit or otherwise modify any applicable restrictions on transfer set forth in any lock-up arrangement, the Securities Purchase Agreement or Certificate of Designation.

 

16

 

 

7.5            In-Kind Distributions. If any Securityholder seeks to effectuate an in-kind distribution of all or part of its Registrable Securities to its direct or indirect equityholders, the Company will, subject to applicable lockups, reasonably cooperate with such Securityholder and the Company’s transfer agent to facilitate such in-kind distribution in the manner reasonably requested by such Securityholder.
