Transaction”), the parties hereto agree to take all actions necessary to cause a meeting of Stockholders to be called promptly thereafter (but in no event later than 30 days after such Board of Directors approval), at which the Stockholders shall hold a vote (voting together as a single class and not as a separate series, and on an as-converted basis) to determine whether a majority in voting power of the Stockholders is in favor of the Merger Transaction. If a majority in voting power of the Stockholder Shares present and voting at such meeting vote in favor of the Merger Transaction, a second vote shall be held in compliance with the requirements of Section 86(2) of the Companies Law or other applicable voting requirement, and each Stockholder shall vote its Stockholder Shares in favor of the Merger Transaction. If a majority in voting power of the Stockholder Shares present and voting at such meeting vote against the Merger Transaction in the initial vote, then each Stockholder shall vote its Stockholder Shares against such Merger Transaction in such second vote.

ARTICLE III

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

3.1 Request for Registration.

(a) Subject to the terms of this Section 3.1, if the Company shall receive at any time after six (6) months after the effective date of the Qualified Public Offering, a written request from the Holders of fifty percent (50%) or more of the Registrable Securities then outstanding (for purposes of this Section 3.1, the “Initiating Holders”) that the Company file a registration statement under the Act covering the registration of Registrable Securities with anticipated aggregate proceeds of at least US$7,500,000, then the Company shall, within twenty (20) days of the receipt thereof, give written notice of such request to all known Holders, and subject to the terms of this Section 3.1, use all commercially reasonable efforts to effect, as soon as practicable, the registration under the Act of all Registrable Securities that the Holders request to be registered in a written request received by the Company within twenty (20) days of the mailing of the Company’s notice pursuant to this Section 3.1(a).

(b) If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this Section 3.1 and the Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in Section 3.1(a). In such event the right of any Holder to include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders and such Holder) to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders (which underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably

acceptable to the Company). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.1, if the underwriter advises the Company that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of securities underwritten (including Registrable Securities), then the Company shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities that would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated to the Holders of such Registrable Securities on a pro rata basis based on the number of Registrable Securities held by all such Holders (including the Initiating Holders); provided, however, that (i) in no event shall any Registrable Securities held by the Investor or the Series A Holders be excluded from such underwriting unless all other securities and Registrable Securities held by Common Holders are first excluded and (ii) in no event shall any Registrable Securities be excluded from such underwriting unless all other securities are first excluded. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from the registration. For purposes of the second preceding sentence concerning apportionment, for any selling shareholder that is a Holder of Registrable Securities and that is a venture capital fund, partnership or corporation, the affiliated venture capital funds, partners, retired partners and shareholders of such Holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons shall be deemed to be a single “selling Holder,” and any pro rata reduction with respect to such “selling Holder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities owned by all such related entities and individuals.

(i) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required under the Act; or

(ii) after the Company has effected two (2) registrations pursuant to this Section 3.1, and such registrations have been declared or ordered effective (and have not been subject to a “stop order” or otherwise withdrawn); or

(iii) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on a date one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective date of, a Company-initiated registration subject to Section 3.2 below, provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; or

(iv) if the Initiating Holders propose to dispose of Registrable Securities that may be registered on Form F-3 or Form S-3 pursuant to Section 3.3 or 3.4 hereof; or

(v) if the Company shall furnish to Holders requesting a registration statement pursuant to this Section 3.1, a certificate signed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for such registration statement to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders, provided that such right shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in any twelve (12)-month period and provided further that the Company shall not register any securities for the account of itself or any other shareholder during such ninety (90) day period (other than a registration relating solely to the sale of securities of participants in a Company stock plan, a registration relating to a corporate reorganization or transaction under Rule 145 of the Act, a registration on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration

statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities, or a registration in which the only Ordinary Shares or High-Vote Ordinary Shares being registered are Ordinary Shares or High-Vote Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of debt securities that are also being registered).

3.2 Piggyback Registrations.

(a) If (but without any obligation to do so) the Company proposes to register (including for this purpose a registration effected by the Company for shareholders other than the Holders) any of its stock or other securities under the Act in connection with the public offering of such securities (other than a registration relating solely to the sale of securities of participants in a Company stock plan, a registration relating to a corporate reorganization or transaction under Rule 145 of the Act, or a registration on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder written notice of such registration. Upon the written request of each Holder given within twenty (20) days after mailing of such notice by the Company in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 3.2(c), use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be registered under the Act all of the Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be registered.

(b) Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 3.2 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. The expenses of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 3.7 hereof.

(c) Underwriting Requirements. If the Registration in respect of which the Company gives notice under this Section 3.2 is for an underwritten offering, the Company shall so advise each Holder. In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of the Company’s shares, the Company shall not be required under this Section 3.2 to include any of the Holders’ securities in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it (or by other persons entitled to select the underwriters) and enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with such underwriters, and then only in such quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole reasonable discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. If the total amount of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by shareholders to be included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities sold other than by the Company that the underwriters determine in their sole reasonable discretion is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Registrable Securities, that the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering. In no event shall any Registrable Securities be excluded from such offering unless all other shareholders’ securities are first excluded. In the event that the underwriters determine that less than all of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered can be included in such offering, then the Registrable Securities that are included in such offering shall be apportioned pro rata among the selling Holders based on the number of Registrable Securities held by all selling Holders or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by all such selling Holders.

3.3 Non-Investor Registration.

In case the Company shall receive from the Holders of Registrable Securities (for purposes of this Section 3.3, the “Initiating Holders”) a written request or requests that the Company

effect a registration on Form F-3 or Form S-3 and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders, the Company shall:

(a) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders; and

(b) use all commercially reasonable efforts to effect, as soon as practicable, such registration and all such qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company, provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance, pursuant to this Section 3.3:

(i) if Form F-3 or Form S-3 is not available for such offering by the Holders;

(ii) if the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company to be included in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public (net of any underwriters’ discounts or commissions) of less than $1,000,000;

(iii) if the Company shall furnish to Holders requesting a registration statement pursuant to this Section 3.3, a certificate signed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for such registration statement to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders, provided that such right shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in any twelve (12) month period and provided further that the Company shall not register any securities for the account of itself or any other shareholder during such ninety (90) day period (other than a registration relating solely to the sale of securities of participants in a Company stock plan, a registration relating to a corporate reorganization or transaction under Rule 145 of the Act, or a registration on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities);

(iv) if the Company has, within the twelve (12) month period preceding the date of such request, already effected one registration on Form F-3 or Form S-3 for the Holders pursuant to this Section 3.3; or

(v) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance except as may be required by the Act.

(c) If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this Section 3.3 and the Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in Section 3.3(a). The provisions of Section 3.1(b) shall be applicable to such request (with the substitution of Section 3.3 for references to Section 3.1).

(d) Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a registration statement covering the Registrable Securities and other securities so requested to be registered as soon as

practicable after receipt of the request or requests of the Initiating Holders. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall not be counted as requests for registration effected pursuant to Section 3.1.

3.4 Investor Registration.

In case the Company shall receive from the Holders of Registrable Securities (for purposes of this Section 3.4, the “Initiating Holders”) a written request or requests that the Company effect a registration on Form F-3 or Form S-3 and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders, the Company shall:

(a) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders; and

(i) if Form F-3 or Form S-3 is not available for such offering by the Holders;

(iii) if the Company shall furnish to Holders requesting a registration statement pursuant to this Section 3.4, a certificate signed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for such registration statement to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders, provided that such right shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in any twelve (12) month period and provided further that the Company shall not register any securities for the account of itself or any other shareholder during such ninety (90) day period (other than a registration relating solely to the sale of securities of participants in a Company stock plan, a registration relating to a corporate reorganization or transaction under Rule 145 of the Act, or a registration on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities);

(iv) if the Company has, within the twelve (12) month period preceding the date of such request, already effected two registrations on Form F-3 for the Holders pursuant to this Section 3.4; or

(c) If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of

their request made pursuant to this Section 3.4 and the Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in Section 3.4(a). The provisions of Section 3.1(b) shall be applicable to such request (with the substitution of Section 3.4 for references to Section 3.1).

(d) Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a registration statement covering the Registrable Securities and other securities so requested to be registered as soon as practicable after receipt of the request or requests of the Initiating Holders. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall not be counted as requests for registration effected pursuant to Section 3.1.

3.5 Obligations of the Company.

Whenever required under this Article III to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

(a) prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective within ninety (90) days thereafter, and, upon the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for a period of up to one hundred twenty (120) days or, if earlier, until the distribution contemplated in the Registration Statement has been completed;

(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement;

(c) furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them;

(d) use all commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders, provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions;

(e) in the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter(s) of such offering;

(f) notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included 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 the light of the circumstances then existing, and, as promptly as practicable, prepare and file with the SEC an amendment to such prospectus or amend or supplement such prospectus such that such prospectus, as so amended, shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, and, as promptly as is practicable, furnish each Holder a reasonable number of copies of the supplement to or the amendment of such prospectus;

(g) promptly notify each Holder of Registrable Securities (i) when a registration statement relating to Registrable Securities has become effective or any supplement to or amendment of any prospectus forming a part of such registration statement has been filed, (ii) when a receipt is obtained for a final prospectus relating to Registrable Securities, (iii) when any amendment of or supplement to a prospectus relating to Registrable Securities shall have been filed, (iv) of any request by the SEC to amend or supplement such registration statement or prospectus or for additional information, (v) of the issuance by the SEC of any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus or prospectus, and (vi) of the suspension of the qualification of such securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the institution of any proceedings for any such purposes; provided, however, that notice of any documents described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) shall be deemed delivered when such materials become publicly available;

(h) cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Article III to be listed on a national exchange or trading system and on each securities exchange and trading system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed;

(i) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration;

(j) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the lifting of any order that might be issued preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus or prospectus;

(k) use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, (i) opinions, dated as of such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such prospectus, in form and substance as is customarily given to the underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and (ii) a letter, dated as of such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any; and

(l) cooperate in reasonable marketing efforts, including participation by senior executives of the Company in any “roadshow” or similar meeting with potential investors, in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article III, the Company shall be entitled to postpone or suspend, for a reasonable period of time (provided that such right shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in any twelve (12) month period) the filing, effectiveness or use of, or trading under, any registration statement if the Company shall determine that any such filing or the sale of any securities pursuant to such registration statement would:

(i) in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, materially impede, delay or interfere with any material pending or proposed financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or other similar transaction involving the Company for which the Board of Directors has authorized negotiations;

(ii) in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, materially adversely impair the consummation of any pending or proposed material offering or sale of any class of securities by the Company; or

(iii) in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, require disclosure of material non-public information that, if disclosed at such time, would be materially harmful to the interests of the Company and its shareholders; provided, however, that

during any such period all executive officers and directors of the Company are also prohibited from selling securities of the Company (or any security of any of the Company’s subsidiaries or affiliates).

In the event of the suspension of effectiveness of any registration statement pursuant to this Section 3.5, the applicable time period during which such registration statement is to remain effective shall be extended by that number of days equal to the number of days during which the effectiveness of such registration statement was suspended.

3.6 Information from Holder.

The Company may require the Holders, in connection with a prospectus relating to Registrable Securities, to furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities.

3.7 Expenses of Registration.

All expenses other than underwriting discounts and commissions incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 hereof, including (without limitation) all registration, filing and qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the selling Holders as a group (not to exceed $50,000 for each registration made pursuant to Section 3.1 and not to exceed $10,000 for each registration made pursuant to Sections 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4) shall be borne by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.3 or Section 3.4 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered (in which case all participating Holders shall bear such expenses pro rata based upon the number of Registrable Securities that were to be included in the withdrawn registration), unless, in the case of a registration requested under Section 3.1, the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities held by the Holders agree to forfeit their right to one demand registration pursuant to Section 3.1 and provided, however, that if at the time of such withdrawal, Holders have learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of the Company from that known to such Holders at the time of their request and have withdrawn the request with reasonable promptness following disclosure by the Company of such material adverse change, then the Holders shall not be required to pay any of such expenses and shall retain their rights pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.3 or 3.4 hereof.

3.8 Delay of Registration.

No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Article III.

3.9 Indemnification.

In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement under this Article III:

(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the partners, members, officers, directors and shareholders of each Holder, legal counsel and accountants for each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Act) for

such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities laws or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Act, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a “Violation”): (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) 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, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities laws or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities laws, and the Company will reimburse each such Holder, underwriter, controlling person or other aforementioned 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 as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 3.9(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation that occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by any such Holder, underwriter, controlling person or other aforementioned person; provided further, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder or underwriter or other aforementioned person, or any person controlling such Holder or underwriter, from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities purchased shares in the offering, if a copy of the most current prospectus was not sent or given by or on behalf of such Holder or underwriter or other aforementioned person to such person, if required by law so to have been delivered, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the shares to such person, and if the prospectus (as so amended or supplemented) would have cured the defect giving rise to such loss, claim, damage or liability.

(b) To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act, legal counsel and accountants for the Company, any underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in such registration statement and any controlling person of any such underwriter or other Holder, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities laws or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities laws, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will reimburse any person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.9(b) for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 3.9(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is

effected without the consent of the Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and provided that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 3.9(b) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 3.9 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 3.9, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties that may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflict (as reasonably determined by the indemnified party) between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of liability to the indemnified party under this Section 3.9 to the extent of such prejudice, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 3.9.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 3.9 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that no contribution by any Holder, when combined with any amounts paid by such Holder pursuant to Section 3.9(b), shall exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(e) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 3.9 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement under this Article III, and otherwise.

3.10 Reports Under the Exchange Act.

With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form F-3 or Form S-3, the Company agrees to:

(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times after the effective date of the Qualified Public Offering;

(b) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Act and the Exchange Act; and

(c) furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the first registration statement filed by the Company), the Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form F-3 or Form S-3 (at any time after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, provided, however, that if the SEC has granted confidential treatment for any exhibits filed with any such filings, the Company need only provide to the Holders the redacted form of such exhibits as approved by the SEC, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant to such form.

3.11 Assignment of Registration Rights.

The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Article III may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder to a transferee or assignee of such securities that (i) is subsidiary, affiliate, parent, partner, limited partner, retired partner or shareholder of a Holder, (ii) is a Holder’s family member or trust for the benefit of an individual Holder, or (iii) after such assignment or transfer, holds at least 100,000 shares of Registrable Securities (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and other recapitalizations), provided: (a) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned; (b) such transferee or assignee agrees in writing to be bound by and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 5.2 hereof; and (c) such assignment shall be effective only if immediately following such transfer the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Act.

3.12 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights.

From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities held by Holders (other than the Common Holders), enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company that would allow such holder or prospective holder (a) to include such securities in any registration filed under Section 3.1, Section 3.2, 3.3 or Section 3.4 hereof, unless under the terms of such agreement, such holder or prospective holder may include such securities in any such registration only to the extent that the inclusion of such securities will not reduce the amount of the Registrable Securities of the Holders that are included, (b) to demand registration of their securities or (c) have any registration rights the terms of which are more favorable than the registration rights granted to Holders.

3.13 Termination of Registration Rights.

No Holder shall be entitled to exercise any right provided for in this Article III (i) after five (5) years following the consummation of the Qualified Public Offering or (ii) as to any Holder, such earlier time after the Qualified Public Offering at which such Holder (A) can sell all shares held by it in compliance with Rule 144(k) or (B) holds one percent (1%) or less of the Company’s

outstanding Ordinary Shares and all Registrable Securities held by such Holder (together with any affiliate of the Holder with whom such Holder must aggregate its sales under Rule 144) can be sold in any three (3) month period without registration in compliance with Rule 144.

ARTICLE IV

ARTICLE V

QUALIFIED PUBLIC OFFERING

5.1 Limitation on Qualified Public Offering.

In no event shall (a) more than 15% of the then-Fully-Diluted Number (taking into account the shares to be sold in the Qualified Public Offering) be sold by the Company as part of or in connection with the Qualified Public Offering, and no securities other than the Ordinary Shares will be offered in the Qualified Public Offering or (b) the Investor sell any of its Stockholder Shares as part of or in connection with the Qualified Public Offering.

5.2 Market Stand-Off.

(a) Each Stockholder hereby agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter, during the period commencing on the date of the final prospectus relating to any public offering of the Company’s capital stock and ending on the date specified by the Company and the managing underwriter (such period not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days in the case of the Qualified Public Offering and ninety (90) days in the case of any

other public offering of capital stock) (i) lend, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, or otherwise transfer any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Stockholder Shares held immediately prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement for such offering, or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that Transfers to another, in whole or part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Stockholder Shares, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is settled by delivery of Stockholder Shares or other securities, in cash or otherwise. The foregoing provisions of this Section 5.2(a) shall not apply to the sale of any shares to an underwriter pursuant to an underwriting agreement, and shall only be applicable to the Stockholders if all officers, directors and greater than two percent (2%) shareholders of the Company enter into similar agreements. Each Stockholder further agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters in a public offering that are consistent with this Section 5.2(a) or that are necessary to give further effect thereto.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions in the paragraph above shall not apply (it being understood and agreed, however, that restrictions other than the one in this Section 5.2(a) may continue to apply) to a transfer by a Stockholder of its Stockholder Shares (i) as a bona fide gift or gifts, provided that the donee or donees thereof agrees with the parties hereto to comply with the terms and conditions of Section 7.3 hereof (including by agreeing to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein), or (ii) to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of such Stockholder or the immediate family of such Stockholder, provided that the trustee of the trust agrees with the parties hereto to comply with the terms and conditions of Section 7.3 hereof (including by agreeing to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein), and provided further that any such transfer referred to in (i) and (ii) shall not involve a disposition for value. For purposes of this Section 5.2(a), “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin. In addition, if the Stockholder is a corporation, the restrictions in the first paragraph of this Section 5.2(a) shall not apply (it being understood and agreed, however, that restrictions other than the one in this Section 5.2(a) may continue to apply) to a transfer by a corporation of capital stock of the Company to any wholly-owned subsidiary of such corporation, or, if the Stockholder is a limited liability company, to the transfer by the limited liability company to a member or affiliated limited liability company, or, if the Stockholder is a partnership, to the transfer by the partnership to a partner or affiliated partnership; provided, however, that in any such case, it shall be a condition to the transfer that the transferee agrees with the parties hereto to comply with the terms and conditions of Section 7.3 hereof (including by agreeing to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein), and provided further that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value.

(b) In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop transfer instructions with respect to the ordinary shares of each Stockholder (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end of such period.

5.3 Investor Restrictions.

(a) Without limiting Section 5.2 hereof, if the Investor shall have exercised the Warrant within thirty (30) Business Days following the consummation of the Qualified Public Offering, the Investor shall not Transfer its Stockholder Shares prior to the one-year anniversary of the consummation of the Qualified Public Offering.

(b) From the date of the consummation of the Qualified Public Offering until the twenty-four (24) month anniversary thereof, the Investor shall not (and shall cause each of its affiliates and each of their respective employees, officers, directors, representatives and agents not to)

solicit, initiate, entertain, consider, encourage or accept the submission of any inquiry, proposal or offer relating to the acquisition (whether by merger, purchase of stock, purchase of assets or otherwise) of the Company (i) by any third-party or any Stockholder or affiliate thereof or (ii) as part of an acquisition which would result in the Company no longer being subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act.

5.4 Investor Standstill.

If (i) the Qualified Public Offering is consummated, (ii) the Warrant expires unexercised or is otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms thereof and (iii) the Investor (together with its affiliates) collectively beneficially owns less than 50% of the then-outstanding ordinary shares (including, for purposes of such calculation, the preferred shares on an as-converted basis), then from and after such expiration or termination until the second anniversary thereof, without the prior written consent of the Company, the Investor shall not, nor shall it permit any of its affiliates to, individually or collectively, directly or indirectly, acquire or offer to acquire or agree to acquire from any person, directly or indirectly, by purchase or merger, through the acquisition of control of another person, or otherwise, beneficial ownership of any equity securities of the Company, or direct or indirect rights (including convertible securities) or options to acquire such beneficial ownership; provided, however, that no such acquisition, offer to acquire or agreement to acquire shall be deemed to occur solely due to (a) a stock split, reverse stock split, reclassification, reorganization or other transaction, such as a rights offering, by the Company affecting any class of the outstanding capital stock of the Company generally or (b) a stock dividend or other pro rata distribution by the Company to holders of its outstanding capital stock; and provided, further, however, that this Section 5.4 shall terminate (and the obligations and restrictions hereunder shall cease and be of no further force or effect) upon the earliest to occur of (x) the IAC Control Date, (y) the date on which a Stockholder or an affiliate thereof (other than the Investor or any affiliate thereof) makes a bona fide offer to purchase or otherwise acquire (or consummates a purchase or acquisition if not announced prior thereto) an amount of ordinary shares (or securities exercisable for or convertible into ordinary shares) equal to the number of ordinary shares that, when added together with all other ordinary shares acquired by such Stockholder since the date hereof, would represent 5% or more of the then-Fully-Diluted Number or (z) the date on which a third party (other than a Stockholder or any affiliate thereof) makes a bona fide offer to purchase or otherwise acquire (or consummates a purchase or acquisition if not announced prior thereto) an amount of ordinary shares (or securities exercisable for or convertible into ordinary shares) which would result in such third party holding ordinary shares representing 5% or more of the then-Fully-Diluted Number.

Each Stockholder agrees that such Stockholder will not, directly or indirectly, Transfer any Stockholder Shares now or hereafter at any time owned by such Stockholder (or any interest therein) to (each, a “Transferee”) any person, except as permitted by this Agreement. The Company shall not transfer upon its books any Stockholder Shares to any person prohibited by this Agreement and any purported transfer in violation hereof shall be null and void and of no effect.

7.2 Compliance with Securities Laws.

No Stockholder shall Transfer any Stockholder Shares, and the Company shall not transfer on its books any Stockholder Shares, unless (i) the Transfer is pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act and is in compliance with any applicable foreign and state securities or blue sky laws, (ii) such Stockholder shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, to the extent reasonably requested by the Company, which opinion of counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that no such registration is required because of the availability of an exemption from registration under the Act and applicable foreign law, (iii) such Transfer is made by a Stockholder that is an individual to any member of his or her immediate family or any trust solely for the benefit of such Stockholder or any member of his or her immediate family, or (iv) such transfer of Stockholder Shares is to an affiliate (for so long as such affiliate remains an affiliate thereof) and/or partner of such Stockholder which is a partnership and/or member of such Stockholder which is a limited liability company, provided such transferee agrees with the parties hereto to comply with the terms and conditions of Section 7.3 hereof.

7.3 Agreement to be Bound.

No Transfer of Stockholder Shares by a Stockholder shall be effective (and the Company shall not transfer on its books any Stockholder Shares) unless (i) the certificates representing such Stockholder Shares issued to the Transferee shall bear the legend set forth on Schedule 7.3 hereto, if required, and (ii) the Transferee shall have executed and delivered to the Company, as a condition precedent to such Transfer, an instrument or instruments in form and substance satisfactory to the Company confirming that the Transferee agrees to be bound by the terms of

7.4 Tag-Along Rights for the Non-Investor Stockholders

(a) Right to Participate in Sale.

If at any time after the IAC Control Date, the Investor proposes to enter into an agreement to sell or otherwise dispose of for value any Stockholder Shares (except for any disposition to a controlled affiliate of the Investor) in one or more related transactions which will result in the Transfer of capital stock representing at least fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of all outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company (such sale or other disposition for value being referred to as a “Tag-Along Sale”), then the Investor shall afford the other Stockholders (each individually a “Tag-Along Stockholder” and, collectively, the “Tag-Along Stockholders”) the opportunity to participate proportionately in such Tag-Along Sale on the same terms and conditions provided to the Investor, including the time of payment and the form of consideration, in accordance with this Section 7.4. The number of Stockholder Shares that each Tag-Along Stockholder will be entitled to include in such Tag-Along Sale (the “Tag-Along Allotment”) shall be determined by multiplying (i) the number of Stockholder Shares held of record by such Tag-Along Stockholder as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the Tag-Along Notice Date (as hereinafter defined) by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which shall equal the number of Stockholder Shares proposed by the Investor to be sold or otherwise disposed of pursuant to the Tag-Along Sale and the denominator of which shall equal the total number of Stockholder Shares held of record by the Investor as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the Tag-Along Notice Date. The Tag-Along Allotment of each Stockholder shall be subject to reduction pursuant to the final sentence of the first paragraph of Section 7.4(c).

(b) Sale Notice.

The Investor shall provide each Tag-Along Stockholder and the Company with written notice (the “Tag-Along Sale Notice”) not more than thirty (30) days nor less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the proposed date of the Tag-Along Sale (the “Tag-Along Sale Date”). Each Tag-Along Sale Notice shall set forth: (i) the name and address of each proposed Transferee of Stockholder Shares in the Tag-Along Sale; (ii) the number of Stockholder Shares proposed to be Transferred by the Investor; (iii) the proposed amount and form of consideration to be paid for such Stockholder Shares and the terms and conditions of payment offered by each proposed Transferee; (iv) the aggregate number of Stockholder Shares held of record by the Investor as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the date of the Tag-Along Notice (the “Tag-Along Notice Date”); (v) the Tag-Along Stockholder’s Tag-Along Allotment, which shall be based upon the number of Stockholder Shares held of record by such Tag-Along Stockholder as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the Tag-Along Notice Date, assuming the Tag-Along Stockholder elected to sell the maximum number of Stockholder Shares possible (such allotment subject to reduction on a pro rata basis depending upon the total number of Stockholder Shares the Transferee is willing to acquire); and (vi) the Tag-Along Sale Date.

Any Tag-Along Stockholder wishing to participate in the Tag-Along Sale shall provide written notice (the “Tag-Along Notice”) to the Investor no less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Tag-Along Sale Date. The Tag-Along Notice shall set forth the number of Stockholder Shares that such Tag-Along Stockholder elects to include in the Tag-Along Sale, which shall not exceed such Tag-Along Stockholder’s Tag-Along Allotment. The Tag-Along Notice given by any Tag-Along Stockholder shall constitute such Tag-Along Stockholder’s binding agreement to sell the Stockholder Shares specified in the Tag-Along Notice on the terms and conditions applicable to the Tag-Along Sale; provided, however, that in the event that there is any material change in the terms and conditions of such Tag-Along Sale applicable to the Tag-Along Stockholder (including, but not limited to, any decrease in the purchase price that occurs other than pursuant to an adjustment mechanism set forth in any agreement relating to the Tag-Along Sale) after such Tag-Along Stockholder gives its Tag-Along Notice, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Investor shall provide further notice thereof and the Tag-Along Stockholder shall have the right to withdraw from participation in the Tag-Along Sale with respect to all of its Stockholder Shares affected thereby. If the proposed Transferee does not consummate the purchase of all of the Stockholder Shares requested to be included in the Tag-Along Sale by any Tag-Along Stockholder on the same terms and conditions applicable to the Investor, then the Investor shall not consummate the Tag-Along Sale of any of its Stockholder Shares to such Transferee, unless the Stockholder Shares of the Investor and the Tag-Along Stockholders to be sold are reduced or limited pro rata in proportion to the respective number of Stockholder Shares to actually be sold in any such Tag-Along Sale and all other terms and conditions of the Tag-Along Sale are the same for the Investor and the Tag-Along Stockholders.

If a Tag-Along Notice from any Tag-Along Stockholder is not received by the Investor prior to the ten (10) Business Day period specified above, such Investor shall have the right to consummate the Tag-Along Sale without the participation of such Tag-Along Stockholder, but only on terms and conditions which are no more favorable in any material respect to the Investor than as stated in the Tag-Along Sale Notice and only if such Tag-Along Sale occurs on a date within sixty (60) days of the Tag-Along Sale Date, subject to extension for receipt of any required third-party consents or approvals. If such Tag-Along Sale does not occur within such sixty (60) day period (as extended), the Stockholder Shares that were to be subject to such Tag-Along Sale thereafter shall continue to be subject to all of the restrictions contained in this Section 7.4.

(d) Delivery of Certificates; Other Agreements.

On the Tag-Along Sale Date, each Tag-Along Stockholder shall deliver a certificate or certificates for the Stockholder Shares to be sold by such Tag-Along Stockholder in connection with the Tag-Along Sale, duly endorsed for transfer with signatures guaranteed, to the Transferee in the manner and at the address indicated in the Tag-Along Notice against delivery of the purchase price for such Shares, and shall enter into any other agreements with the Investor and the Transferee reasonably requested in connection with the Transfer, in each case as a condition to such Tag-Along Stockholder’s right to participate in the Tag-Along Sale.

(e) Termination upon Qualified Public Offering.

This Section 7.4 shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the consummation of the Qualified Public Offering.

7.5 Tag-Along Rights for the Investor

(a) Right to Participate in Sale.

If at any time after the Warrant expires unexercised or is otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms thereof, the Company or any Stockholder or any group of Stockholders (other than the Investor) (the “Transferor”) proposes to enter into an agreement to sell or otherwise dispose of for value any Stockholder Shares in one or more related transactions which will result in the Transfer of capital stock representing at least five percent (5%) or more of the combined voting power of all outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company (such sale or other disposition for value being referred to as a “Transferor Tag-Along Sale”), then the Transferor shall afford the Investor the opportunity to participate proportionately in such Transferor Tag-Along Sale on the same terms and conditions provided to the Transferor, including the time of payment and the form of consideration, in accordance with this Section 7.5. The number of Stockholder Shares that the Investor will be entitled to include in such Transferor Tag-Along Sale (the “Tag-Along Allotment”) shall be determined by multiplying (i) the number of Stockholder Shares held of record by the Investor as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the Tag-Along Notice Date (as hereinafter defined) by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which shall equal the number of Stockholder Shares proposed by the Transferor to be sold or otherwise disposed of pursuant to the Transferor Tag-Along Sale and the denominator of which shall equal the total number of Stockholder Shares held of record by the Transferor as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the Tag-Along Notice Date. The Tag-Along Allotment of the Investor shall be subject to reduction pursuant to the final sentence of the first paragraph of Section 7.5(c).

(b) Sale Notice.

The Transferor shall provide the Investor and the Company with written notice (the “Transferor Tag-Along Sale Notice”) not more than thirty (30) days nor less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the proposed date of the Transferor Tag-Along Sale (the “Transferor Tag-Along Sale Date”). Each Transferor Tag-Along Sale Notice shall set forth: (i) the name and address of each proposed Transferee of Stockholder Shares in the Transferor Tag-Along Sale and the name and address of the Transferor(s); (ii) the number of Stockholder Shares proposed to be Transferred by the Transferor; (iii) the proposed amount and form of consideration to be paid for such Stockholder Shares and the terms and conditions of payment offered by each proposed Transferee; (iv) the aggregate number of Stockholder Shares held of record by the Transferor as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the date of the Transferor Tag-Along Notice (the “Transferor Tag-Along Notice Date”); (v) the Investor’s Tag-Along Allotment, which shall be based upon the number of Stockholder Shares held of record by the Investor as of the close of business on the day immediately prior to the Transferor Tag-Along Notice Date, assuming the Investor elected to sell the maximum number of Stockholder Shares possible (such allotment subject to reduction on a pro rata basis depending upon the total number of Stockholder Shares the Transferee is willing to acquire); and (vi) the Transferor Tag-Along Sale Date.

If the Investor desires to participate in the Transferor Tag-Along Sale, it shall provide written notice (the “Transferor Tag-Along Notice”) to the Transferor no less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Transferor Tag-Along Sale Date. The Transferor Tag-Along Notice shall set forth the number of Stockholder Shares that the Investor elects to include in the Transferor Tag-Along Sale, which shall not exceed the Investor’s Tag-Along Allotment. The Transferor Tag-Along Notice given by the Investor shall constitute the Investor’s

binding agreement to sell the Stockholder Shares specified in the Transferor Tag-Along Notice on the terms and conditions applicable to the Transferor Tag-Along Sale; provided, however, that in the event that there is any material change in the terms and conditions of such Transferor Tag-Along Sale applicable to the Investor (including, but not limited to, any decrease in the purchase price that occurs other than pursuant to an adjustment mechanism set forth in any agreement relating to the Transferor Tag-Along Sale) after the Investor gives its Transferor Tag-Along Notice, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Transferor shall provide further notice thereof and the Investor shall have the right to withdraw from participation in the Transferor Tag-Along Sale with respect to all of its Stockholder Shares affected thereby. If the proposed Transferee does not consummate the purchase of all of the Stockholder Shares requested to be included in the Transferor Tag-Along Sale by the Investor on the same terms and conditions applicable to the Transferor, then the Transferor shall not consummate the Transferor Tag-Along Sale of any of its Stockholder Shares to such Transferee, unless the Stockholder Shares of the Transferor and the Investor to be sold are reduced or limited pro rata in proportion to the respective number of Stockholder Shares to actually be sold in any such Transferor Tag-Along Sale and all other terms and conditions of the Transferor Tag-Along Sale are the same for the Transferor and the Investor.

If a Transferor Tag-Along Notice from the Investor is not received by the Transferor prior to the ten (10) Business Day period specified above, such Transferor shall have the right to consummate the Transferor Tag-Along Sale without the participation of the Investor, but only on terms and conditions which are no more favorable in any material respect to the Transferor than as stated in the Transferor Tag-Along Sale Notice and only if such Transferor Tag-Along Sale occurs on a date within sixty (60) days of the Transferor Tag-Along Sale Date, subject to extension for receipt of any required third-party consents or approvals. If such Transferor Tag-Along Sale does not occur within such sixty (60) day period (as extended), the Stockholder Shares that were to be subject to such Transferor Tag-Along Sale thereafter shall continue to be subject to all of the restrictions contained in this Section 7.5.

(d) Delivery of Certificates; Other Agreements.

On the Transferor Tag-Along Sale Date, the Investor shall deliver a certificate or certificates for the Stockholder Shares to be sold by the Investor in connection with the Transferor Tag-Along Sale, duly endorsed for transfer with signatures guaranteed, to the Transferee in the manner and at the address indicated in the Transferor Tag-Along Notice against delivery of the purchase price for such Stockholder Shares, and shall enter into any other agreements with the Transferor and the Transferee reasonably requested in connection with the Transfer, in each case as a condition to the Investor’s right to participate in the Transferor Tag-Along Sale.

(e) Termination upon Qualified Public Offering.

This Section 7.5 shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the consummation of the Qualified Public Offering.

7.6 First Option Rights.

(a) From and after (i) the date hereof, with respect to the Stockholders other than the Investor and (ii) the date the Warrant expires unexercised or is otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms thereof, with respect to the Investor, until, in each case, the Qualified Public Offering, if at any time a Stockholder proposes to sell or otherwise Transfer for value (except for any Transfer to a controlled affiliate thereof) all or any part of the Stockholder Shares held by it, the Stockholder shall provide written notice (the “Sale Notice”) to the Company

setting forth such proposal to sell or otherwise Transfer for value such Stockholder Shares, which Sale Notice shall set forth the proposed price and terms. Upon the giving of such Sale Notice, the Company shall have the option (the “Purchase Option”) to purchase all, but not less than all, of such Stockholder Shares specified in the Sale Notice, on such proposed price and terms. The Company shall have ten (10) days from receipt of the Sale Notice to provide written notice (the “Acceptance Notice”) to the Stockholder of its desire to exercise such Purchase Option. The Acceptance Notice given by the Company shall constitute a binding agreement by the Company to purchase the Stockholder Shares specified in the Acceptance Notice on the proposed price and terms.

(b) The closing of the purchase by the Company shall be held on a Business Day within forty-five (45) days after the giving of the relevant Acceptance Notice, at the principal offices of the Company in the Cayman Islands, or at such other time and place as may be mutually agreed to by the Company and the Stockholder.

(c) If no Acceptance Notice is delivered within the period specified above by the Company with respect to all (but not less than all) of the Stockholder Shares included in the Sale Notice, the Stockholder shall have the right to consummate a sale or sales of the Stockholder Shares covered by the Sale Notice to a third party but only at a price and upon terms no less favorable in any material respect to the Stockholder than those contained in the Sale Notice and only if such sale occurs on a date within forty-five (45) days of the expiration of the applicable ten-day period described above, subject to extension for receipt of any required third-party consents or approvals; provided, however, that in the event the Stockholder has not so transferred such Stockholder Shares to a third party within such 45-day period (as extended), then such Stockholder Shares thereafter shall continue to be subject to all of the restrictions contained in this Section.
