Section 2

GENERAL; SECURITIES SUBJECT TO THIS AGREEMENT

2.1.

Grant of Rights . The Company hereby grants registration rights to the Designated Holders upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

Section 3

MANDATORY REGISTRATION

3.1.

Shelf Registration Statement . Not later than sixty (60) days after the Investor written demand (such 60th day, the “ Required Filing Date ”), the Company shall file with the SEC a registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act (a “ Shelf Registration Statement ”) on Form F-3 (or any successor form thereto), or if Form F-3 may not be used by the Company pursuant to applicable law, on Form F-1 (or any successor form thereto), with respect to the resale, from time to time, of all of the Registrable Securities held by the Designated Holders, provided that such demand is with respect to at least one million of such Registrable Securities. The disposition of Registrable Securities from the Shelf Registration Statement may occur, at any time, in one or more underwritten offerings, block transactions, broker transactions, at-market transactions or in such other manner or manners as may be specified by the applicable Designated Holders. Notwithstanding the above, if the Company is required to file the Registration Statement on a Form F-1, then the Company shall have ninety (90) days from the date of request from the Designated Holders to prepare and file the Registration Statement and the Required Filing Date shall be, in such case, the ninetieth (90th) day after the request from the Designated Holders

3.2.

Effective Shelf Registration Statement .

(a)

The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act, subject to the provisions of Sections 7.4 and 7.5 hereof, until the earlier of (i) such time as all Registrable Securities registered thereunder are eligible for sale by a Designated Holder in the open market in a single transaction pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act (or any similar provision then in force) without being subject to the volume limitations thereof or (ii) all Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 144 or otherwise pursuant an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (such period being the “ Effectiveness Period ”).

(b)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (other than Section 3.2(d) below), in the event the staff of the SEC (the “ Staff ”) or the SEC seeks to characterize any offering pursuant to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement as constituting an offering of securities by or on behalf of the Company such that Rule 415 is not available to the Company to register the resale of such Registrable Securities and, as a result, the Staff or the SEC does not permit such Registration Statement to become effective and used for resales in a manner that permits the continuous resale at the market by the Designated Holders participating therein (or as otherwise may be acceptable to each Designated Holder) without being named therein as an “underwriter,” then the Company shall reduce the number of shares to be included in such Registration Statement (in accordance with the following sentence) until such time as the Staff and the SEC shall so permit such Registration Statement to become effective as aforesaid. In making such reduction, the Company shall reduce the number of Registrable Securities to be included by all other Designated Holders on a pro rata basis (based upon the number of Registrable Securities otherwise required to be included for each such Designated Holder) unless the inclusion of shares by a particular Designated Holder or a particular set of Designated Holders results in the Staff or the SEC’s taking the position that the inclusion of such Registrable Securities by such Designated Holders would constitute a registration “by or on behalf of the Company,” in which event, the shares held by such Designated Holder or set of Designated Holders shall be the only shares subject to reduction. In addition, in the event that the Staff or the SEC requires any Designated Holder seeking to sell securities under a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement to be specifically identified as an “underwriter” (an “ Underwriter Identification ”) in order to permit such Registration Statement to become effective, and such Designated Holder (subject to Section 3.2(d) below) does not consent to being so named as an underwriter in such Registration Statement, then, in each such case, the Company shall reduce the total number of Registrable Securities to be registered on behalf of such Designated Holder, only to the extent necessary as would cause the Staff or the SEC not to require such Underwriter Identification or until such Designated Holder accepts such Underwriter Identification and the manner thereof. In the event of any reduction in Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 3.2(b), if requested by a Designated Holder holding Registrable Securities that were so excluded from such registration, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities to be registered to the greatest extent and at the earliest opportunity practicable and in any event not later than sixty (60) days after the earliest practicable date permitted under applicable guidance of the SEC and the Staff (and shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect additional registrations of Registrable Securities until all such securities have been included in additional Registration Statements).

(c)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, a Designated Holder shall have the right to require the Company to exclude all or any portion of such Designated Holder’s Registrable Securities from any Registration Statement, by written notice to the Company upon such Designated Holder’s reasonable belief that (i) inclusion of such Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement could subject such Designated Holder to underwriter liability, or (ii) the SEC or the Staff will impose material restrictions and terms on the disposition of such Registrable Securities. In such event, the Company shall be required to file a new Registration Statement for such excluded shares in accordance with Section 3.2(b).

(d)

If any such Registration Statement and related prospectus refer to any Designated Holder by name or otherwise as the holder of any securities of the Company and if in such holder’s sole and exclusive judgment, such holder is or might be deemed to be an underwriter or a controlling person of the Company, or that such reference could reasonably be expected to result in an Underwriting Identification requirement, such holder shall have the right to (i) require the insertion therein of language, in form and substance satisfactory to such holder and presented to the Company in writing, to the effect that the holding by such holder of such securities is not to be construed as a recommendation by such holder of the investment quality of the Company’s securities covered thereby and that such holding does not imply that such holder will assist in meeting any future financial requirements of the Company, or (ii) in the event that such reference to such holder by name or otherwise is not required by the Securities Act or any similar federal statute then in force, require the deletion of the reference to such holder.

3.3.

Event Payments . Should an Event (as defined below) occur then, upon each monthly anniversary of the occurrence of such Event (an “ Event Payment Date ”) until the applicable Event is cured, as relief for the damages suffered therefrom by the Designated Holder (the parties hereto agreeing that the liquidated damages provided for in this Section 3.3 constitute a reasonable estimate of the damages that may be incurred by the Designated Holder by reason of such Event and that such liquidated damages represent the exclusive monetary remedy for the Designated Holders for damages suffered due to such Event; provided, however , that this shall in no manner limit the Designated Holders’ entitlement to specific performance as provided for in Section 10.2), the Company shall pay to the Designated Holder an amount in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to one-twentieth of a percent (0.05%) of (i) the number of SEC Approved Registrable Securities then held by the Designated Holder as of the date of such Event, multiplied by (ii) the purchase price paid by the Designated Holder for such SEC Approved Registrable Securities then held, for each day that such Event continues, excluding the day on which such Event has been cured. The payments to which the Designated Holder shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 3.3 are referred to herein as “ Event Payments .” In the event the Company fails to make Event Payments to the Designated Holder within five (5) Business Days after an Event Payment Date, such Event Payments owed to the Designated Holder shall bear interest at the rate of one half percent (0.5%) per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full. All pro rated calculations made pursuant to this paragraph shall be based upon the actual number of days in such pro rated month. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in no event shall the Company be obligated to pay such liquidated damages in an aggregate amount that exceeds five percent (5.0%) of the purchase price paid by the Designated Holder for its Registrable Securities pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

For such purposes, each of the following shall constitute an “ Event ”:

(a) a Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to the Required Filing Date or is not declared effective on or prior to the Required Effectiveness Date except: (i) as provided for in Section 7.4 or (ii) in the event that the SEC or the Staff (whether by means of a comment letter provided by the SEC or the Staff relating to the Registration Statement or otherwise) makes a determination that the registration of the Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement may not be appropriately characterized as secondary offerings that are eligible to be made on a shelf basis under Rule 415 or that one or more of the Designated Holders should be subjected to Underwriter Identification; or

(b) on and after the effective date of a Registration Statement filed hereunder, a Designated Holder is not permitted to sell SEC Approved Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement (or a subsequent Registration Statement filed in replacement thereof) for any reason (other than the fault of such Designated Holder or in compliance with applicable rules and regulations such as insider trading policies) for more than forty five (45) days in any one hundred and eighty day (180) day period or for more than ninety (90) days in any twelve month period.

3.4.

Expenses . The Company shall bear all Registration Expenses in connection with this Section 3, whether or not the Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective.

Section 4

DEMAND REGISTRATION RIGHTS

4.1.

If, at any time after the Required Filing Date and prior to the expiration of the Effectiveness Period, (i) (A) additional Registrable Securities, which have not been included in the Shelf Registration Statement of the Company pursuant to Section 3.1 above, are issued or issuable to, or otherwise acquired by, the Designated Holder or its Affiliates or (B) a Registration Statement covering the sale of all of the Registrable Securities is not then effective and available for sales thereof by the Designated Holder, and (ii) the Company receives from the Designated Holder a written request (the “ Demand Request ”) stating that such Designated Holder is likely to be considered an Affiliate of the Company and requesting that the Company effect a registration with respect to at least one million of such Registrable Securities (which request shall state the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be disposed of and the intended methods of disposition of such shares by the Designated Holder), the Company shall as soon as practicable, file and use reasonable best efforts to effect up to three such registrations during the period from the Required Filing Date to the expiration of the Effectiveness Period (but not more frequently than once per 180 day period) and to permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all of such Registrable Securities.

4.2.

Expenses. The Company shall bear all Registration Expenses in connection with this Section 4, whether or not a Registration Statement becomes effective.

Section 5

INCIDENTAL OR “PIGGY-BACK” REGISTRATION

5.1.

Request for Incidental Registration . At any time after the date hereof until the end of the Effectiveness Period, if (i) the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering by the Company for its own account (other than a Registration Statement on Form F-4 or S-8 or any successor thereto), or (ii) the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering for the account of any shareholder of the Company other than any Designated Holder, then in each case the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to each of the Designated Holders at least fifteen (15) days before the anticipated filing date, and such notice shall specify, at minimum, the proposed date of filing of such Registration Statement, any proposed means of distribution of such Registrable Securities or other securities, any proposed managing underwriter or underwriters of such Registrable Securities or other securities and offer such Designated Holders the opportunity to register the number of Registrable Securities as each such Designated Holder may request (an “ Incidental Registration ”). The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts (within twenty (20) days of the notice by the Designated Holders provided for below in this sentence) to cause the managing underwriter or underwriters in the case of a proposed underwritten offering (the “ Company Underwriter ”) to permit each of the Designated Holders who have requested in writing to the Company within ten (10) Business Days of the giving of the notice by the Company to participate in the Incidental Registration to include its, his or her Registrable Securities in such offering on the same terms and conditions as the securities of the Company or the account of such other shareholder, as the case may be, included therein. In connection with any Incidental Registration under this Section 5.1 involving an underwritten offering, the Company shall not be required to include any Registrable Securities in such underwritten offering unless the Designated Holders thereof accept the terms of the underwritten offering as agreed upon between the Company, such other shareholders, if any, and the Company Underwriter. If the Company Underwriter determines that the registration of all or part of the Registrable Securities which the Designated Holders have requested to be included in an offering by the Company for its own account (other than a Registration Statement on Form F-4 or S-8 or any successor thereto) would materially adversely affect the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered or the price per security that will derive from such registration, then the Company shall be required to include in such Incidental Registration, to the extent of the amount that the Company Underwriter believes may be sold without causing such adverse effect, (i) all of the securities to be offered for the account of the Company, (ii) the Registrable Securities to be offered for the account of the Designated Holders pursuant to this SECTION 5, as a group, which Registrable Securities shall be allocated pro rata among such Designated Holders based on the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such offering by each such Designated Holder and (iii) other securities requested to be included in such offering; provided, however , that no such reduction shall reduce the shares of Registrable Securities held by the Designated Holders included in the registration to below 20% of the total amount of securities included in such registration, unless such adverse effect is related to any of the matters contemplated by Section 3.2(b) hereof, in which case such 20% floor shall not apply and such Registrable Securities may be excluded pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.2(b) hereof. If the Company Underwriter determines in writing that the registration of all or part of the Registrable Securities which the Designated Holders have requested to be included in an offering for the account of any shareholder of the Company other than any Designated Holders (“ Other Shareholders ”) would materially adversely affect the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered or the price per security that will derive from such registration, then the Company shall be required to include in such Incidental Registration, to the extent of the amount that the Company Underwriter believes may be sold without causing such adverse effect, (i) all of the securities to be offered for the account of such Other Shareholders, (ii) the Registrable Securities to be offered for the account of the Designated Holders pursuant to this SECTION 5, as a group, which Registrable Securities shall be allocated pro rata among such other Designated Holders based on the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such offering by each such Designated Holder, (iii) all of the securities to be offered for the account of the Company, and (iv) other securities requested to be included in such offering; provided, however , that no such reduction shall reduce the shares of Registrable Securities held by the Designated Holders included in the registration to below 40% of the total amount of securities included in such registration unless such adverse effect is related to any of the matters contemplated by Section 3.2(b) above, in which case such 40% floor shall not apply and such Registrable Securities may be excluded pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.2(b). For the avoidance of doubt, no registration pursuant to this Section 5.1 shall relieve the Company of its obligations to register Registrable Securities pursuant to Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 5.1.

5.2.

Right to Terminate Registration . The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under Section 5.1 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Designated Holder has elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration. A Designated Holder shall have the right, by written notice to the Company, to exclude all or any portion of such Designated Holder’s Registrable Securities from any Registration Statement effected pursuant to this Section 5 at any time prior to its effectiveness.

5.3.

Expenses . The Company shall bear all Registration Expenses in connection with any Incidental Registration pursuant to this Section 5, whether or not such Incidental Registration becomes effective.

Section 6

UNDERWRITTEN OFFERINGS

6.1.

Market Underwritten Offering . The Designated Holders may distribute all or any portion of the Registrable Securities then held by them by means of an underwritten offering; provided, that : (i) a Majority Interest has requested such underwritten offering (the “ Electing Holders ”); (ii) the Electing Holders provide written notice to the Company and the other Designated Holders of their intention to distribute Registrable Securities by means of an underwritten offering; (iii) the managing underwriter or underwriters thereof shall be jointly designated by the Company and the Electing Holders; (iv) each Designated Holder participating in such underwritten offering (each a, “ Participating Holder ” and collectively, the “ Participating Holders ”) agrees to sell such Participating Holder’s Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Electing Holders entitled selecting the managing underwriter or underwriters hereunder; (v) each Participating Holder participating in such underwritten offering completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements; (vi) the Company shall be entitled to include securities in such underwritten offering amounting to not less than 20% of the aggregate offering; and (vii) the underwritten sale pursuant to this Section must be for a number of Registrable Securities, which based on the good faith determination by the Electing Holders, would result in gross proceeds of at least $20 million (excluding securities to be offered for the account of the Company).

6.2.

The Company agrees that in the event an underwritten offering pursuant to Section 6.1 is undertaken, the Company shall (without limitation to the obligations of the Company set forth in Section 7):

The Company shall also provide customary indemnities to any underwriters (or persons, including broker-dealers or agents deemed “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act) of the Registrable Securities, their officers, directors and employees and each Person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Designated Holders of Registrable Securities.

8.2.

Indemnification by Designated Holders . In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Designated Holder is participating pursuant to Section 3 or Section 5 hereof, each such Designated Holder shall promptly furnish to the Company in writing such information with respect to such Designated Holder as may be required by law or regulation for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or prospectus and all information required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Company by such Designated Holder not materially misleading or necessary to cause such Registration Statement or prospectus not to omit a material fact with respect to such Designated Holder necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading. Each Designated Holder agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, Affiliates, and each Person who controls the Company to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to the Designated Holders, but only if such untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information with respect to such Designated Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Designated Holder specifically for use in such Registration Statement or preliminary, final or summary prospectus or amendment or supplement, or a document incorporated by reference into any of the foregoing; provided , however , that the total amount to be indemnified by such Designated Holder pursuant to this Section 8.2 shall be limited to the net proceeds (after deducting the underwriters’ discounts and commissions) received by such Designated Holder in the offering to which the Registration Statement or prospectus relates.

8.3.

Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings . Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder (the “ Indemnified Party ”) agrees to give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party (the “ Indemnifying Party ”) after the receipt by the Indemnified Party of any written notice of the commencement of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation or threat thereof made in writing for which the Indemnified Party intends to claim indemnification or contribution pursuant to this Agreement; provided , however , that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any Liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party hereunder (except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced or otherwise forfeits substantive rights or defenses by reason of such failure). If notice of commencement of any such action is given to the Indemnifying Party as above provided, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it may wish, jointly with any other Indemnifying Party similarly notified, to assume the defense of such action at its own expense, with counsel chosen by it and reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be paid by the Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party agrees to pay the same, (ii) the Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense of such action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party or (iii) such parties have been advised in writing by such counsel that either (x) representation of such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct or (y) there may be one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, in any of such cases, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Party, it being understood, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) for all similarly-situated Indemnified Parties. No Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any settlement entered into without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the consent of such Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which such Indemnified Party is a party and indemnity has been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability for claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

8.4.

Contribution .

(a) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 from the Indemnifying Party is unavailable to an Indemnified Party hereunder in respect of any Liabilities referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions which resulted in such Liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative faults of such Indemnifying Party and 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 or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, 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 Liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.2, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding; provided , that the total amount to be contributed by such Designated Holder shall be limited to the net proceeds (after deducting the underwriters’ discounts and commissions) received by such Designated Holder in the offering.

(b) The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8.4 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 Section 8.4(a). No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

10.2.

Remedies . The Designated Holders, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, shall be entitled to specific performance of their rights under this Agreement. The Company agrees that monetary damages alone (including those specified in Section 3.3) would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

10.3.

Notices . All notices, demands and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in the manner provided for under the Purchase Agreement.

10.4.

10.10.

WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL . BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS OR REMEDIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies which may be available to the Investor Director, the indemnity granted by the Company to the Investor Director in Clause 2 shall not extend to any Expenses incurred by the Investor Director:

to the Company;

Company’s liability

4.1.

If the Company makes any payment pursuant to this Agreement in respect of any of the matters against which the Investor Director is indemnified in Clause 2, and if it is subsequently determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or an arbitral tribunal (where such determination is final and is binding on the Investor Director) that liability would attach to the Investor Director in respect of any fraud, dishonesty, gross negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust, then the Investor Director shall promptly repay to the Company all amounts paid by the Company under this Agreement in connection with such matter.

Continuation of obligations

5.1.

The indemnity under this Agreement shall cease to be valid and enforceable in respect of acts or omissions of the Investor Director (within the scope of cover of the indemnity set out in Clauses 2 and 3 above) from the date of termination, resignation or cessation in any manner whatsoever of the Investor Director from being a Director.

5.2.

For the avoidance of doubt, and as an independent stipulation, the indemnity set out in Clauses 2 and 3 above shall continue to apply, and survive cessation of the indemnity pursuant to this Clause, in respect of all relevant acts and omissions of the Investor Director prior to cessation.

Advancement of Expenses

6.1.

The Company shall, unless prohibited by applicable law, advance any Expenses incurred by or on behalf of the Investor Director in connection with any Claim within ten (10) Business Days after the delivery by the Investor Director to the Company of a statement or statements requesting such advances, together with a reasonably detailed written explanation of the basis therefore and an itemization of legal fees and disbursements in reasonable detail, from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of any Claim. Such advances shall be unsecured and interest free. The Investor Director shall qualify for advances, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, solely upon the execution and delivery to the Company of an undertaking providing that the Investor Director shall repay the advance to the extent that it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction from which there is no further right to appeal that the Investor Director is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company under the provisions of this Agreement or applicable law.

6.2.

If the Company shall be obligated under Clause 6.1 to pay the Expenses of any Claim against the Investor Director, then subject to Clauses 6.3, 6.4 and 6.5, the Company shall be entitled to assume the defence of such Claim upon the delivery to the Investor Director of written notice of its election to do so.

6.3.

If the Company elects to assume the defence of such Claim as per Clause 6.2, then unless the plaintiff or plaintiffs in such Claim include one or more Persons holding, together with his, her or its Affiliates, in the aggregate, a majority of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding voting securities, the Company shall assume such defence using a single law firm selected by the Company to represent the Investor Director and other present and former directors or officers of the Company who are parties to such Claim. The retention of such law firm by the Company shall be subject to prior written approval by the Investor Director, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If the Company elects to assume the defence of such Claim and the plaintiff or plaintiffs in such Claim include one or more Persons holding, together with his, her or its Affiliates, in the aggregate, a majority of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding voting securities, then the Company shall assume such defence using a single law firm selected by the Investor Director.

6.4.

After (a) in the case of retention of any such law firm selected by the Company, delivery of the required notice to the Investor Director, approval of such law firm by the Investor Director and the retention of such law firm by the Company, or (b) in the case of retention of any such law firm selected by the Investor Director, the completion of such retention, the Company will not be liable to the Investor Director under this Agreement for any Expenses of any other law firm incurred by the Investor Director after the date that such first law firm is retained by the Company with respect to the same Claim, unless (i) the retention of a law firm by the Investor Director has been previously authorized by the Company, (ii) the Investor Director shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between either (1) the Company and the Investor Director or (2) the Investor Director and another present or former director or officer of the Company also represented by such law firm in the conduct of any such defence, or (iii) the Company shall not, in fact, have retained a law firm to prosecute the defence of such Claim, or failed to have defended such Claim in good faith, in each of which cases, the Expenses of the law firm retained by the Investor Director shall be at the expense of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Clauses 6.3 and 6.4, the Investor Director shall have the right to retain a separate law firm in any such Claim at the Investor Director’s sole expense.

6.5.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Clauses 6.2, 6.3 and 6.4, the Company shall not be entitled to assume the defence of any Claim brought by or in the right of the Company or as to which the Investor Director shall have made the conclusion provided for in (ii) of Clause 6.4. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Clauses 6.2, 6.3 and 6.4, in the case of (1) any Claim that is or relates to or has arisen in connection with a criminal action or proceeding, or (b) a Claim that seeks injunction or equitable relief against the Investor Director, the Investor Director shall be entitled to conduct the defence of the Claim with counsel of his choice and to make all decisions with respect thereto, in which case the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the Company.

Notification and conduct of claims

7.1.

The Investor Director will, as soon as reasonably practicable and to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or legal process, notify the Company in writing of any Claim which may give rise to a claim or demand by the Investor Director against the Company under this Agreement setting out as much information as is available to the Investor Director (including details of the person(s) making the Claim, the circumstances which gave rise to it and an estimate of the amount of the Claim), provided that a delay in giving such notification shall not deprive the Investor Director of any right to be indemnified under this Agreement unless, and then only to the extent that, (a) such delay is materially prejudicial to the defence of such Claim, or (b) such claim or demand by the Investor Director against the Company as regards a Claim which has been settled without the Company’s prior written consent which was not unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

7.2.

The Company shall not settle, compromise or consent to any Claim, including, without limitation, any Claim in which it takes the position that the Investor Director is not entitled to indemnification in connection with such settlement, nor shall the Company settle any claim which would impose any fine or impose any obligation on the Investor Director or which would not otherwise provide the Investor Director with an express, unconditional and final release from all Claims, in each case, without the Investor Director’s prior written consent. The Investor Director shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent to any proposed settlement.

7.3.

The Company shall be entitled by notice to the Investor Director to assume sole conduct of all matters relating to any Claim in accordance with the provisions of Clause 6.2.

7.4.

The Investor Director shall do all such things as the Company may reasonably request in order to permit the Company fully to exercise its rights under Clauses 7.2 and 7.3, and in particular shall:

7.4.1.

provide the Company with such information and copies of such documents relating to any Claim as the Company may reasonably request;

7.4.2.

not, without the prior written consent of the Company, make any admission in relation to any Claim, nor settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment (or offer to do so), with respect to any Claim; and

7.4.3.

assist the Company as it may require in resisting, defending or settling such Claim.

7.5.

Without prejudice to Clause 7.2, if the Investor Director is notified in advance of the Company’s intention to settle or compromise a Claim and reasonably objects to the terms of such settlement or compromise, the Investor Director shall have the right to assume the conduct of the defence of the Claim unless the terms thereof provide the Investor Director with an express, unconditional and final release from all claims.

Directors’ and officers’ liability insurance

8.1.

For the duration of the Investor Director’s appointment as a director of the Company, the Investor Director shall be covered by any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy taken out by the Company pursuant to and subject to the terms of such policy from time to time in force and to the Company’s policy on such insurance from time to time.

Subrogation

9.1.

If the Company makes any payment under this Agreement, it shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to any right the Investor Director may have for recovery of the amounts so paid from any third-party. The Investor Director agrees to execute all documents required and do all other acts necessary to effect the foregoing provisions and permit the Company to enforce the rights so subrogated.

9.2.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company hereby acknowledges that the Investor Director has certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by the Investor and certain of its Affiliates (collectively, the “ Investor Indemnitors ”). The Company hereby agrees that:

9.2.1.

it is the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to the Investor Director are primary and any obligation of the Investor Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by the Investor Director are secondary);

9.2.2.

it shall be required to advance the full amount of the indemnity granted in Clause 2, without regard to any rights that the Investor Director may have against the Investor Indemnitors; and

9.2.3.

it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Investor Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Investor Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof.

The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Investor Indemnitors on behalf of the Investor Director with respect to any Claim for which the Investor Director has sought indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing and the Investor Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Investor Director against the Company. The Company and the Investor Director agree that the Investor Indemnitors are express third-party beneficiaries of the terms of this Clause 9.2.
