of the Registrable Securities request in writing that the Issuer effect a registration with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities then outstanding where the price to the public of the offering is $10.0 million or more, the Issuer may be required to provide notice to all holders of Registrable Securities and to use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such registration; provided, however, that the Issuer will not be required to effect such a registration if, within the preceding 12 months, the Issuer has already effected two registrations for the holders of Registrable Securities in response to the demand registration rights, subject to certain exceptions. In addition, if the holders of at least 20% of the Registrable Securities request in writing that we effect a registration with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities then outstanding where the price to the public of the offering is $3.0 million or more, the Issuer may be required to provide notice to all holders of Registrable Securities and to use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such registration; provided, however, that the Issuer will not be required to effect such a registration if, within the preceding 12 months, the Issuer has already effected two registrations on Form S-3 for the holders of Registrable Securities. All of these registration rights will expire, with respect to any particular holder, (i) five years after the closing date of the IPO, or (b) such time at which such holder can sell all shares held by it in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

Other than as described in this Schedule 13D, to the best of the Reporting Persons knowledge, there are no other contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the persons named in Item 2 and between such persons and any person with respect to any securities of the Issuer.
