The maximum aggregate liability of either party pursuant to its indemnification obligations under this Article VI shall not exceed the portion of the aggregate purchase price paid by the Purchaser hereunder.

Section 6.2 Indemnification Procedure. Any party entitled to indemnification under this Article VI (an “Indemnified Party”) will give written notice to the indemnifying party of any matters giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided, that the failure of any party entitled to indemnification hereunder to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Article VI except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any action, proceeding or claim is brought against an Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnification is sought hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, unless in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party a conflict of interest between it and the Indemnifying Party may exist with respect of such action, proceeding or claim, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. In the event that the indemnifying party advises an Indemnified Party that it will contest such a claim for indemnification hereunder, or fails, within thirty (30) days of receipt of any indemnification notice to notify, in writing, such person of its election to defend, settle or compromise, at its sole cost and expense, any action, proceeding or claim (or discontinues its defense at any time after it commences such defense), then the Indemnified Party may, at its option, defend, settle or otherwise compromise or pay such action or claim.

The Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party which relates to such action or claim.

If the indemnifying party elects to defend any such action or claim, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in such defense with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent. Notwithstanding anything in this Article VI to the contrary, the indemnifying party shall not, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof which imposes any future obligation on the Indemnified Party or which does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim. The indemnification required by this Article VI shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred, so long as the Indemnified Party irrevocably agrees to refund such moneys if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such party was not entitled to indemnification. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (a) any cause of action or similar rights of the Indemnified Party against the indemnifying party or others, and (b) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law. The indemnification procedures set forth in this Section 6.2 shall govern all indemnification matters arising pursuant to Section 7.5.

ARTICLE VII

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 7.1 Registration Rights. The Company hereby grants the following registration rights to holders of the Preferred Shares.

(a) On one occasion subsequent to the date the Company has completed an offering of securities pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act by the SEC, upon a written request therefor from holders of more than 50% of the Conversion Shares issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Preferred Shares, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement under the Securities Act (on Form SB-2 registration statement or such other form that it is eligible to use) registering the Registrable Securities which are the subject of such request for unrestricted public resale by the holder thereof. Upon the receipt of such request, the Company shall promptly give written notice to all other record holders of the Registrable Securities that such registration statement is to be filed and shall include in such registration statement Registrable Securities for which it has received written requests within ten (10) days after the Company gives such written notice. The Company will register not less than a number of shares of Common Stock in the aforedescribed registration statement that is equal to 120% (or if such percentage is not permitted under the Securities Act, the maximum amount permitted under the Securities Act) of the Conversion Shares (collectively the “Registrable Securities”) for which registration is requested pursuant to this Section 7. In addition, the Company may defer a registration under this Section 7.1 (a) for up to six (6) months if (i) the Board determines it would not be in the best interests of the Company to register such Common Stock at this time or (ii) the Company is advised by its counsel that undertaking the registration under this Section 7.1(a) would accelerate the disclosure of a material development involving the Company.

(b) If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act for sale to the public, whether for its own account or for the account of other security holders or both, except with respect to registration statements on Forms X-0, X-0 or another form not available for registering the Registrable Securities for sale to the public, provided the Registrable Securities are not otherwise registered for resale by the Purchaser pursuant to an effective registration statement, each such time it will give at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice to the record holder of the Registrable Securities of its intention so to do. Upon the written request of the holder, received by the Company within ten (10) days after the giving of any such notice by the Company, to register any of the Registrable Securities not previously registered, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities as to which registration shall have been so requested to be included with the securities to be covered by the registration statement proposed to be filed by the Company, all to the extent required to permit the sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities so registered by the holder of such Registrable Securities (the “Seller” or “Sellers”). In the event that any registration pursuant to this Section 7.1(b) shall be, in whole or in part, an underwritten public offering of common stock of the Company, the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in such an underwriting may be reduced by the managing underwriter if and to the extent that the Company and the underwriter shall reasonably be of the opinion that such inclusion would adversely affect the marketing of the securities to be sold by the Company therein; provided, however, that the Company shall notify the Seller in writing of any such reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, or Section 7.4 hereof, the Company may withdraw or delay or suffer a delay of any registration statement referred to in this Section 7.1(b) without thereby incurring any liability to the Seller. The rights to effect a piggyback registration pursuant to this Section 7.1(b) shall only be exercisable on one occasion by the holders of Registrable Securities and the exercise of such rights by any one holder shall extinguish the rights of that holder and any other holder of Registrable Securities from exercising any rights under this Section 7.1(b).

(c) If, at the time any written request for registration is received by the Company pursuant to Section 7.1(a), the Company has determined to proceed with the actual preparation and filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act in connection with the proposed offer and sale for cash of any of its securities for the Company’s own account and the Company actually does file such other registration statement, such written request shall be deemed to have been given pursuant to Section 7.1(b) rather than Section 7.1(a), and the rights of the holders of Registrable Securities covered by such written request shall be governed by Section 7.1(b).

Section 7.2 Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required by the provisions of Section 7.1(a) to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:

(a) subject to the timelines provided in this Agreement, prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement required by Section 7, with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective for the period of the distribution contemplated thereby (determined as herein provided, and subject to the matters for which the Board of Directors could delay the filing of such registration statement pursuant to the last sentence of Section 7.1(a)), promptly provide to the holders of the Registrable Securities copies of all filings and Commission letters of comment and notify the Purchaser (by telecopier and by e-mail addresses provided by the Purchaser) on or before 6:00 PM EST on the same business day that the Company receives notice that (i) the Commission has no comments or no further comments on the Registration Statement, and (ii) the registration statement has been declared effective;

(b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective until such registration statement has been effective for a period of nine (9) months, and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement in accordance with the Sellers’ intended method of disposition set forth in such registration statement for such period;

(c) furnish to the Sellers, at the Company’s expense, such number of copies of the registration statement and the prospectus included therein (including each preliminary prospectus) as such persons reasonably may request in order to facilitate the public sale or their disposition of the securities covered by such registration statement or make them electronically available;

(d) use its commercially reasonable best efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under the securities or “blue sky” laws of New York and such jurisdictions as the Sellers shall request in writing, provided, however, that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to transact business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified or to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction;

(e) if applicable, list the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement with any securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed;

(f) notify the Seller within one (1) business day of the Company’s becoming aware that a prospectus relating thereto that is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event of which the Company has knowledge as a result of which the prospectus contained in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing or which becomes subject to a Commission, state or other governmental order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement covering any of the Shares; and

(g) provided same would not be in violation of the provision of Regulation FD under the Exchange Act, make available for inspection by the Sellers, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Seller or underwriter, all publicly available, non-confidential financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all publicly available, non-confidential information reasonably requested by the Seller, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement.

(h) In order to have their shares included in any Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 7, each Seller must agree to the terms of any underwriting agreement executed by the Company in connection therewith, including but not limited to the terms of any lock-ups, holdbacks and prohibitions on the use of any free writing prospectuses.

Section 7.3 Provision of Documents. In connection with each registration described in this Section 7, each Seller will furnish to the Company in writing such information and representation letters with respect to itself and the proposed distribution by it as reasonably shall be necessary in order to assure compliance with federal and applicable state securities laws.

Section 7.4 Expenses. All expenses incurred by the Company in complying with Section 7, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses (if required), fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or “blue sky” laws, fees of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., transfer taxes, and fees of transfer agents and registrars, are called “Registration Expenses.” All underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities are called “Selling Expenses.” All Registration Expenses arising in connection with a registration pursuant to Section 7(a) will be paid by the Purchaser. In the event of a registration pursuant to this Section 7(b), the Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with such registration statement. In either case, each Seller shall be responsible for the Selling Expenses related to the Registrable Securities it owns.

Section 7.5 Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) In the event of a registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 7, the Company will, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless the Seller, each officer of the Seller, each director of the Seller, each underwriter of such Registrable Securities thereunder and each other person, if any, who controls such Seller or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Seller, or such underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement under which such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 7, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon 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 in light of the circumstances when made, and will subject to the provisions of Section 7.6(c) reimburse the Seller, each such underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any Seller to the extent that any such damages arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or omission (A) made in any preliminary prospectus if (i) the Seller failed to send or deliver a copy of the final prospectus delivered by the Company to the Seller with or prior to the delivery of written confirmation of the sale by the Seller to the person asserting the claim from which such damages arise and (ii) the final prospectus would have corrected such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or such omission or alleged omission, or (B) 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 so made in conformity with information furnished by any such Seller, or any such controlling person in writing specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus.

(b) In the event of a registration of any of the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 7, the Seller will, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, each officer of the Company who signs the registration statement, each director of the Company, each underwriter and each person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, against all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or such officer, director, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 7, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon 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 will reimburse the Company and each such officer, director, underwriter and controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, provided, however, that the Seller will be liable hereunder in any such case if and only 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 reliance upon and in conformity with information pertaining to such Seller, as such, furnished in writing to the Company by such Seller specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus, and provided, further, however, that the liability of the Seller hereunder shall be limited to the net proceeds actually received by the Seller from the sale of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement.

(c) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in the event of joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either (i) a Seller, or any controlling person of a Seller, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 7.5 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 7.5 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of the Seller or controlling person of the Seller in circumstances for which indemnification is not provided under this Section 7.5; then, and in each such case, the Company and the Seller will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion so that the Seller is responsible only for the portion represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its securities offered by the registration statement bears to the public offering price of all securities offered by such registration statement, provided, however, that, in any such case, (y) the Seller will not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such securities sold by it pursuant to such registration statement; and (z) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

Section 7.6 Effect of Registration. For purposes of determining the value of the Company in connection with the vesting of Restricted Shares or the release of Earn Out Shares, the fair market value of the Company shall be deemed to be equal upon the closing of the sale of the registered offering, to the product of (i) the volume weighted average per share price of the Common Stock (as quoted by Bloomberg, L.P.) for the first five Trading Days for Common Stock and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the fifth Trading Day after such closing, on a fully diluted basis (which shall not include any unvested Restricted Shares, unreleased Earn Out Shares or unvested convertible securities), and after such date shall be valued in the same manner except the price per share on any day shall equal the volume weighted average price per share of the Common Stock for the previous five Trading Days. A Valuation of the Company shall be deemed to occur on the close of business on the fifth Trading Day after the closing of the sale of the registered offering and on an ongoing basis thereafter (each a “Valuation Time”). Any shares of Common Stock that would be eligible to vest at the Valuation Time shall immediately vest and shall vest accordingly on an ongoing basis thereafter. “Trading Day” shall mean any day during which the principal exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock is traded or quoted shall be open for business.
