Notwithstanding any such withdrawal, the Company shall pay all expenses incurred by the holders of Exercise Shares in connection with such Piggy-Back Registration as provided in subsection (d), below. |
| (c) | Information. The Company may request a holder of Exercise Shares to furnish the Company such information with respect to such holder and such holder’s proposed distribution of the Exercise Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement as the Company may, from time-to-time, reasonably request in writing or as shall be required by law or by the SEC in connection therewith, and such holders shall furnish the Company with such information. |
| (d) | Fees and Expenses. All fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this Section 6 by the Company shall be borne by the Company whether or not any Exercise Shares are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement.
