ARTICLE II

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 2.1. Piggyback Registrations .

(a) Right to Piggyback . Whenever the Company proposes to register for sale under the Securities Act or publicly sell under a “shelf” registration statement any Company Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Company Shares) for its own account or the account of any stockholder of the Company (other than offerings pursuant to employee benefit plans or noncash offerings in connection with a proposed acquisition, exchange offer, recapitalization or similar transaction) and the registration form to be used may be used for the registration of Registrable Securities (a “ Piggyback Registration ”), the Company will give prompt written notice to the Holders and, subject to Section 2.1(b) hereof, shall use its reasonable best efforts to include in such transaction all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written request for inclusion therein within 15 days after receipt of the Company’s notice.

4

(b) Priority . If a registration or sale pursuant to this Section 2.1 involves an Underwritten Offering and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that in its good faith opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration or sale exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without having a material adverse effect on such offering, including the price at which such securities can be sold, then the Company will be required to include in such registration the maximum number of securities that such underwriter advises can be so sold, allocated (x) first, to the securities the Company proposes to sell and the securities of any other Person that, as of the date of this Agreement, is entitled to have such securities included in such registration on a priority basis ahead of the Registrable Securities pursuant to an Existing Registration Rights Agreement, and (y) second, to Registrable Securities which the Holders have requested to be included in such registration and securities held by any other Person which also have the right to be included in such registration and have requested to be so included, such amount to be allocated pro rata among such requesting Holders of Registrable Securities and such other Persons on the basis of the amount of securities requested by such Holders and such other Persons to be included in such offering.

(c) Withdrawal of Registrations . In the case of an offering initiated by the Company as a primary offering on behalf of the Company, nothing contained herein shall prohibit the Company from determining, at any time, not to file a registration statement or, if filed, to withdraw such registration or terminate or abandon the offering related thereto, without prejudice, however, to the rights of the Holders to request a registration pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof.

Section 2.2. Demand Registrations .

(a) Right to Request Shelf Registration . At any time after the date hereof when the Company is eligible to register Company Shares on Form S-3 (or a successor form), upon the written request of a Majority of Holders (the “ Initiating Holders ”) that the Company effect the registration under the Securities Act of all or part of such Initiating Holders’ Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration statement, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to either (i) promptly file a registration statement (which, if permitted, shall be an “automatic shelf registration statement” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) on Form S-3 or such other form under the Securities Act then available to the Company providing for the resale pursuant to Rule 415 from time to time of all or part of the Registrable Securities or (ii) amend an existing registration statement for the resale pursuant to Rule 415 from time to time of all or part of the Registrable Securities (in each case and together with the Prospectus, amendments and supplements to the shelf registration statement or Prospectus, including pre- and post-effective amendments, all exhibits thereto and all material incorporated by reference or deemed to be incorporated by reference, if any, in such shelf registration statement, the “ Shelf Registration Statement ”). If the Company files any shelf registration statement for its own benefit or for the benefit of the holders of any of its securities other than the Holders, the Company agrees that it shall use its reasonable best efforts to include in such registration statement such disclosures as may be required by Rule 430B under the Securities Act in order to ensure that the Holders may be added to such shelf registration statement at a later time through the filing of a Prospectus supplement rather than a post-effective amendment. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as promptly as reasonably practicable following such filing. The Company

5

shall maintain the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement for the maximum period permitted by SEC rules or such shorter period which shall terminate when all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold or otherwise cease to be Registrable Securities. The plan of distribution contained in the Shelf Registration Statement (or related Prospectus supplement) relating to the Company Shares shall be determined by Parent, if Parent or any of its Subsidiaries is a requesting Holder for such Shelf Registration Statement, or otherwise by the other requesting Holder or Holders. Subject to the conditions of Section 2.2(b) , each Holder shall be entitled to require the Company to effect a Fully Marketed Underwritten Offering pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement so long as the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in each such offering either (1) equals or exceeds 992,247 Company Shares (which amount shall be equitably adjusted in the case of stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, recapitalization, mergers, consolidations, combinations or exchanges of securities, split-ups, split-offs, spin-offs, liquidations or other similar changes in capitalization), or (2) represents all of the remaining Registrable Securities owned by the requesting Holder and its Affiliates. Except as provided in this Section 2.2 with respect to Underwritten Offerings, there shall be no limitation on the number of takedowns off the Shelf Registration Statement.

(b) Limits on Underwritten Offerings . Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to effect an Underwritten Offering pursuant to this Section 2.2 on more than one occasion during any calendar year; provided , however , that if the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be included in such Underwritten Offering is reduced pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.2(d) , then such Underwritten Offering shall not be counted as an Underwritten Offering for purposes of this Section 2.2(b) .

(c) Right to Request Demand Registrations . At any time after the date hereof when the Company is not eligible to register Company Shares on Form S-3 (or a successor form), upon the written request of a Majority of Holders requesting that the Company effect the registration under the Securities Act of all or part of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration statement separate from a Shelf Registration Statement (a “ Demand Registration ”), the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to effect, as expeditiously as possible, the registration under the Securities Act of such number of Registrable Securities requested to be so registered; provided , that the Company shall not be required to file a registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.2(c) unless the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be included therein either (1) equals or exceeds 992,247 Company Shares (which amount shall be equitably adjusted in the case of stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, recapitalization, mergers, consolidations, combinations or exchanges of securities, split-ups, split-offs, spin-offs, liquidations or other similar changes in capitalization), or (2) represents all of the remaining Registrable Securities owned by the requesting Holder and its Affiliates. Promptly after receipt of any such request for Demand Registration, the Company shall give written notice of such request to each other Holder and to all other holders of Company Shares having rights to have their shares included in such registration and shall, subject to the provisions of Section 2.2(d) hereof, include in such registration all such Registrable Securities with respect to which all stockholders having such rights have requested to be so registered.

(d) Priority . If a requested registration pursuant to this Section 2.2 involves an Underwritten Offering and the managing underwriter shall advise the Company in writing that

6

in its good faith opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering without having a material adverse effect on such offering, including the price at which such securities can be sold, then the Company will be required to include in such registration the maximum number of securities that such underwriter advises can be so sold, allocated (x) first, to the securities of any Persons that are, as of the date of this Agreement, entitled to be included in such underwriting on a priority basis ahead of the Registrable Securities pursuant to an Existing Registration Rights Agreement and have so requested to be included in such registration, (y) second to Registrable Securities which the Initiating Holders have requested to be included in such registration pro rata among such Initiating Holders based on the total amount of Registrable Securities requested by such Initiating Holders to be included in such registration, and (z) third, to Registrable Securities which other Holders have requested to be included in such registration and securities held by any other Person which also have the right to be included in such registration and have requested to be so included, such amount to be allocated pro rata among such requesting Holders of Registrable Securities and such other Persons on the basis of the amount of securities requested by such Holders and such other Persons to be included in such offering.

(e) A registration will be deemed to be initiated by the Company if the Company provides written notice to the Holders of its intention to effect such a registration or sale pursuant thereto.

(f) Preemption of Demand Registration . Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Board of Directors of the Company determines in its good-faith judgment, (i) that the disclosures that would be required to be made by the Company in connection with such registration would be materially harmful to the Company because of transactions then being considered by, or other events then concerning, the Company, or would otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Company, then the Company may defer the filing (but not the preparation) of the registration statement which is required to effect any registration pursuant to this Section 2.2 for a reasonable period of time, but not in excess of 60 calendar days (or any longer period agreed to by the requesting Holder), or (ii) that registration at the time would require the inclusion of pro forma or other information, which requirement the Company is reasonably unable to comply with, then the Company may defer the filing (but not the preparation) of the registration statement which is required to effect any registration pursuant to this Section 2.2 for a reasonable period of time, but not in excess of 60 calendar days (or any longer period agreed to by the requesting Holder); provided , that at all times the Company is in good faith using reasonable best efforts to file the registration statement as soon as practicable. The Company shall provide prompt written notice to the Selling Holders of (x) any deferment of the filing of a registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.2(f) and (y) the Company’s decision to file such registration statement following such deferment. The Company may defer the filing of a particular registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.2(f) only twice during any 12-month period. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 2.2(f) , the Company may not defer the filing of a registration statement past the date that is the earliest of (a) the date that is five Business Days after the date upon which any matter, the disclosure of which the Company has determined would be materially harmful to the Company because of transactions then being considered by, or other events then concerning, the Company, is disclosed to the public or ceases to be material; provided that, if filing such registration statement at such time would require the inclusion of financial statements, pro forma or other information, which

7

requirement the Company is reasonably unable to comply with, then the Company may defer such filing for a reasonable period of time, but not in excess of 60 calendar days (or any longer period agreed to by the requesting Holders) so long as at all times the Company is in good faith using reasonable best efforts to file such registration statement as soon as practicable; or (b) such date that, if such deferment continued, would result in there being more than 120 days in the aggregate in any 12 month period during which the filing of one or more Registration Statements has been so deferred. The period during which a filing is so deferred hereunder is referred to as a “ Delay Period .”

Section 2.3. Holdback Agreements . To the extent requested by an underwriter of any Underwritten Offering, the Company agrees not to directly or indirectly, offer, sell, pledge, contract to sell (including any short sale), grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of any equity securities of the Company or enter into any hedging transaction relating to any equity securities of the Company during the 90 days beginning on the pricing date of any Underwritten Offering pursuant to any Registration Statement (except as part of such Underwritten Offering or pursuant to registrations on Form S-8 or S-4 or any successor forms thereto) unless the underwriter managing the offering otherwise agrees to a shorter period.

Section 2.4. Registration Procedures . If and whenever the Company is required to effect or cause the registration and the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to:

Section 2.8. Conversion of Other Securities . If any Holder offers any options, rights, warrants or other securities issued by it or any other person that are offered with, convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for any Registrable Securities, the Registrable Securities underlying such options, rights, warrants or other securities shall be eligible for registration pursuant to Sections 2.1 and 2.2 hereof, so long as such transfer of registration rights is effected in compliance with Section 2.10 hereof.

Section 2.9. Rule 144; Rule 144A . If and for so long as the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Company shall take such measures and file such information, documents and reports as shall be required by the SEC as a condition to the availability of Rule 144 or Rule 144A (or any successor provisions) under the Securities Act.

Section 2.10. Transfer of Registration Rights . (a) Any Seller may transfer all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to any transferee of Registrable Securities constituting not less than one percent (1%) of the outstanding Company Shares (each, a “ transferee ”); provided , however , that no such minimum share assignment requirement shall be necessary for an assignment by a Holder which is (A) a partnership to its partners in accordance with partnership interests, (B) a limited liability company to its members in accordance with their interest in the limited liability company, or (C) a corporation to its stockholders in accordance with their interests in the corporation. Any transfer of registration rights pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be effective upon receipt by the Company of (i) written notice from such

12

Holder stating the name and address of any transferee and identifying the amount of Registrable Securities with respect to which the rights under this Agreement are being transferred and the nature of the rights so transferred and (ii) written agreement from the transferee to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement. In connection with any such transfer, the term “Holder,” “Seller” or “Parent,” as used in this Agreement shall, where appropriate to assign such rights and obligations to such transferee, be deemed to refer to or include the transferee holder of such Registrable Securities. Parent and its Affiliates may exercise their rights hereunder in such proportion as they shall agree among themselves.

(b) After such transfer, each Holder shall retain its rights under this Agreement with respect to all other Registrable Securities owned by such Holder.

The Company shall not permit any officer, director, underwriter, broker or other Person acting on behalf of the Company to use any free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) in connection with any offering of Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of the Selling Holders, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Section 2.12. Other Registration Rights . If the Company at any time after the date hereof grants to any other holders of Company Shares or securities of the Company convertible into Company Shares any rights to request the Company to effect the registration under the Securities Act of any such Company Shares with any term more favorable to such holders than a term set forth in this Agreement, any term of this Agreement that is less favorable shall be deemed amended or supplemented to the extent necessary to provide the Holders such more favorable rights and benefits. The foregoing covenant shall not apply to registration on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any successor form promulgated for similar purposes.

Section 2.13. Indemnification .

(a) Indemnification by the Company . The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, each Selling Holder whose Registrable Securities are covered by a Registration Statement or Prospectus, the officers, directors, partners, members, managers and employees of each of them, each Person who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) each such Selling Holder and the officers, directors, partners, members, managers and employees of each such controlling Person, and each underwriter (including any Holder that is deemed to be an underwriter pursuant to any SEC comments or policies), if any, and each Person who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) such underwriter, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable costs of preparation and reasonable attorneys’ fees and any other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or Action), judgments, fines, penalties, charges and amounts paid in settlement (collectively, “ Losses ”), as incurred, arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any applicable Registration Statement or any amendment of or supplement thereto, or the omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and (ii) any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact

13

contained in any preliminary or final Prospectus, any document incorporated by reference therein or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided , that the Company will not be liable to a Selling Holder or underwriter, as the case may be, in any such case to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) by such Selling Holder or underwriter, as the case may be, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such Registration Statement (or in any preliminary or final Prospectus contained therein, any document incorporated by reference therein or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related thereto), or any amendment of or supplement to any of the foregoing or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with the Holder Information furnished to the Company by such Selling Holder expressly for inclusion in such document; and provided , further , that the Company will not be liable to any Person who participates as an underwriter in any underwritten offering or sale of Registrable Securities, or to any Person who is a Selling Holder in any non-underwritten offering or sale of Registrable Securities, or any other Person, if any, who controls such underwriter or Selling Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act, under the indemnity agreement in this Section 2.13 with respect to any preliminary Prospectus or the final Prospectus (including any amended or supplemented preliminary or final Prospectus), as the case may be, to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such underwriter, Selling Holder or controlling Person results from the fact that such underwriter or Selling Holder sold Registrable Securities to a Person to whom there was not sent or given, at or prior to the written confirmation of such sale, a copy of the final Prospectus as then amended or supplemented, whichever is most recent, if the Company has previously furnished copies thereof to such underwriter or selling Holder and such final Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, has corrected any such misstatement or omission (such failure to send or deliver, a “ Delivery Failure ”). Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Holder and shall survive the transfer of such securities. The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have to a Holder.

(b) Indemnification by Selling Holders . In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Selling Holder is participating by registering Registrable Securities, such Selling Holder agrees, severally and not jointly with any other Person, to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Company, the officers, directors and employees of the Company, and each Person who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) the Company, and each underwriter, if any, and each Person who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) such underwriter, from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising out of or based on (i) any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such Registration Statement (or in any preliminary or final Prospectus contained therein, any document incorporated by reference therein or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related thereto) or any amendment of or supplement to any of the foregoing, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a final or preliminary Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, in each case solely to the extent that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission)

14

is made in such Registration Statement (or in any preliminary or final Prospectus contained therein, any document incorporated by reference therein or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related thereto), or any amendment of or supplement to any of the foregoing or other document, in reliance upon and in conformity with the Holder Information furnished to the Company by such Selling Holder expressly for inclusion in such document (for purposes of this Section 2.13(b) , any information relating to any underwriter that is contained in a Registration Statement or Prospectus shall not be deemed to be information relating to a Selling Holder), or (ii) a Delivery Failure (other than any Delivery Failure related to an Underwritten Offering); provided , that no Selling Holder will be liable to any Person who participates as an underwriter in any underwritten offering or sale of Registrable Securities or any other Person, if any, who controls such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, under the indemnity agreement in this Section 2.13 with respect to any preliminary Prospectus or the final Prospectus (including any amended or supplemented preliminary or final Prospectus), as the case may be, to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such underwriter or controlling Person results from the fact that such underwriter sold Registrable Securities to a Person to whom there was not sent or given, at or prior to the written confirmation of such sale, a copy of the final Prospectus as then amended or supplemented, whichever is most recent, if the Company has previously furnished copies thereof to such underwriter and such final Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, has corrected any such misstatement or omission. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any of its directors, officers, employees or controlling Persons. The Company may require as a condition to its including Registrable Securities in any Registration Statement filed hereunder that the holder thereof acknowledge its agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement (including this Section 2.13 ) applicable to it.

(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings . If any Person shall be entitled to indemnity hereunder (an “ indemnified party ”), such indemnified party shall give prompt notice to the party from which such indemnity is sought (the “ indemnifying party ”) of any claim or of the commencement of any Action with respect to which such indemnified party seeks indemnification or contribution pursuant hereto; provided , however , that the delay or failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any obligation or liability except to the extent that the indemnifying party has been actually and materially prejudiced by such delay or failure. The indemnifying party shall have the right, exercisable by giving written notice to an indemnified party promptly after the receipt of written notice from such indemnified party of such claim or Action, to assume, at the indemnifying party’s expense, the defense of any such Action, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided , however , that an indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless: (i) the indemnifying party agrees to pay such fees and expenses; (ii) the indemnifying party fails promptly to assume, or in the event of a conflict of interest cannot assume, the defense of such Action or fails to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, in which case the indemnified party shall also have the right to employ counsel and to assume the defense of such Action; or (iii) in the indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such Action; provided , further , 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

15

allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one firm of attorneys (together with appropriate local counsel) at any time for all of the indemnified parties, or for fees and expenses that are not reasonable. Whether or not such defense is assumed by the indemnifying party, such indemnified party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its consent. The indemnifying party shall not consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by all claimants or plaintiffs to such indemnified party of a release, in form and substance satisfactory to the indemnified party, from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation.

(d) Contribution .

(i) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.13 is unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any Losses (other than in accordance with its terms), then each applicable indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and such indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party, on the one hand, and indemnified party, on the other hand, 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 taken 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 any such action, statement or omission.

(ii) The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.13(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph.

(iii) 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.

(iv) The obligation of any Selling Holder obliged to make contribution pursuant to this Section 2.13(d) shall be several and not joint.

(e) Additional Provisions .

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, an indemnifying party that is a Holder shall not be required to indemnify or contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the gross proceeds, after underwriting discounts and commissions but before expenses, from the sale of the Registrable Securities sold by such Holder in the applicable offering exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay pursuant to Section 2.13(b) .

16

(ii) The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director, manager, partner or controlling Person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities.

(iii) The indemnification and contribution required by this Section 2.13 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 Loss is incurred.

(iv) To the extent that any of the Selling Holders is, or would be expected to be, deemed to be an underwriter of Registrable Securities pursuant to any SEC comments or policies or any court of law or otherwise, the Company agrees that (i) the indemnification and contribution provisions contained in this Section 2.13 shall be applicable to the benefit of the Selling Holders in their role as deemed underwriter in addition to their capacity as a Selling Holder (so long as the amount for which any other Selling Holder is or becomes responsible does not exceed the amount for which such Selling Holder would be responsible if the Selling Holder were not deemed to be an underwriter of Registrable Securities) and (ii) the Selling Holders and their representatives shall be entitled to conduct the due diligence which they would normally conduct in connection with an offering of securities registered under the Securities Act, including receipt of customary opinions and comfort letters.

ARTICLE III

MISCELLANEOUS

(b) Nature of Holders’ Obligations . The obligations of each Holder under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Holder, and no Holder shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Holder under this Agreement, other than as expressly set forth herein. Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Holder pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, shall be deemed to constitute the Holders as a partnership, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Holders are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

17

Section 3.2. Termination . This Agreement shall terminate upon such time as there are no Registrable Securities, except for the provisions of Sections 2.7 , 2.13 and this Article III , which shall survive such termination.

Section 3.3. Amendment and Waiver . This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of the Company and Parent. Each Holder shall be bound by any amendment authorized by this Section 3.3 whether or not the Registrable Securities held by such Holder have been marked to indicate such amendment. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed as a waiver of such provisions and shall not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

Section 3.4. Severability . If any provision of this Agreement shall be declared by any court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, all other provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected and shall remain in full force and effect.

Section 3.5. Entire Agreement . Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement, together with the several agreements and other documents and instruments referred to herein or therein or annexed hereto or thereto, embody the complete agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede and preempt any understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties, written or oral, prior to the date this agreement is first executed by the parties hereto.

Section 3.6. Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures were upon the same instrument, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered (by telecopy, electronic delivery or otherwise) to the other parties. Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile transmission, by electronic mail in “portable document format” (“.pdf”) form, or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document, will have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing the original signatures.

Section 3.7. Remedies . (a) Each party hereto acknowledges that monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy in the event that any of the covenants or agreements in this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its terms, and it is therefore agreed that, in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right it may have, the non-breaching party will have the right to seek an injunction, temporary restraining order or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction enjoining any such breach or threatened breach and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof. Each party hereto agrees not to oppose the granting of such relief in the event a court determines that such a breach has occurred, and to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy.

(b) All rights, powers and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any thereof by any party shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by such party.
