Deferral of Filing. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Corporation may defer the filing of any registration statement otherwise required to be filed by it pursuant to Section 3 for up to 90 days if the Corporation notifies each requesting holder promptly after such request that the Corporation's Board of Directors has determined in its good faith judgment that the requested registration and offering would require disclosure of pending or contemplated matters or information, the disclosure of which would likely be detrimental to the Corporation or materially interfere with its or its subsidiaries business or a pending or contemplated material transaction involving the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries which period may be extended for up to an additional 90 days upon a subsequent determination by the Board of Directors in good faith that the conditions for deferral still exist. In addition to the foregoing deferral rights, the Corporation shall not be required to file any registration statement pursuant to Section 3 (i) within 90 days after the effectiveness of a registration statement relating to a Demand Registration or (ii) within 180 days (or such shorter period as may be permitted by the underwriters lock-up agreement, if any) after the effectiveness of a registration statement referred to in Section 4 unless the number of securities held by holders of Registrable Securities included in such prior registration statement referred to in this clause (ii) was less than 80% of the number of shares such holders requested to include in which event the period of delay under this clause (ii) shall be 90 days.
