(b)    No holder of Shares (collectively, the “Confidential Investors”) shall disclose any information relating to the Company or any Subsidiary (the “Confidential Information”) without the prior written consent of the Board; provided that (i) Confidential Information may be disclosed if required by applicable law, regulation, legal process or any stock exchange or other self-regulatory organization (subject to the provisions of clause (c) below) and (ii) each Confidential Investor may disclose Confidential Information to its, and its Affiliates’, partners, members, advisors, employees, agents, accountants, attorneys and Affiliates and representatives thereof that are actively engaged in the monitoring or oversight of such Confidential Investor’s investment in the Company and its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Representatives”), so long as (x) such Representatives agree to keep such information confidential (or the Confidential Investor directs such Representative to keep such information confidential, in which case such Confidential Investors shall be liable for any failure on the part of its Representatives to so keep such information confidential), and to limit their use of such information to the use and monitoring of such Confidential Investor’s investment in the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided that such Representatives shall be entitled to report summary financial data to the current or prospective limited partners, members or other investors of a Stockholder, and (y) the sharing of such Confidential Information with such Representatives does not violate any applicable law or regulation. The term “Confidential Information” does not include information that (A) is or has become generally available to the public other than as a result of a direct or indirect disclosure by a Confidential Investor or any of its representatives in breach of the provisions hereof or (B) was within the possession of a Confidential Investor or any of its representatives from a source other than the Company prior to its being furnished to such Confidential Investor by or on behalf of the Company; provided, that in the case of (B) above, the source of such information was not known by such Confidential Investor to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with, or other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to, the Company with respect to such information.

(c)    In the event that any Confidential Investor is required by applicable law, regulation, legal process or any stock exchange or other self-regulatory organization, to disclose any of the Confidential Information, such Confidential Investor shall promptly notify the Company in writing so that the Company may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy. Nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent any Confidential Investor from honoring a subpoena (or governmental order) that seeks discovery of the Confidential Information if (A) a motion for a protective order, motion to quash and/or other motion filed to prevent the production or disclosure of the Confidential Information has been denied or is not made; provided, however, that such Confidential Investor shall disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information which such Confidential Investor’s legal counsel advises is required and that it exercise commercially reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the

5

remainder of the Confidential Information; or (B) the Company consents in writing to having the Confidential Information produced or disclosed pursuant to the subpoena (or governmental order). In no event will any Confidential Investor or any of its representatives oppose any action by the Company to obtain a protective order or other relief to prevent the disclosure of the Confidential Information or to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be afforded the Confidential Information. The Company shall promptly reimburse the Confidential Investor for any reasonable costs and expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred in connection with any action that the Confidential Investor may be required to take, or is requested by the Company to take, under this Section 1.04.

(c)    The Stockholders agree to cooperate in good faith and to use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to, and instruct their Director designees to expeditiously assist with, the Demand Sale, including by (i) agreeing not to exercise any rights of appraisal which may be available in connection with such Demand Sale, (ii) consenting to and raising no objections to such Demand Sale, (iii) executing any Share purchase agreement, merger agreement or other agreement customary and necessary with respect to such Demand Sale, and (iv) voting all of its Shares in favor of the transaction relating to such Demand Sale and against any alternative transaction; provided that (X) the terms of such agreements shall apply equally to all Stockholders; (Y) such agreements may require the Stockholders (and any investment funds which hold equity interests in a Stockholder) to refrain post-closing for up to five years from competing with the Company and its Subsidiaries in the paid membership warehouse club business in the United States and (Z) except as in accordance with Section 2.03(d), such agreements shall not permit recourse to the Stockholders.

(d)    In connection with a Demand Sale, to the extent that the Stockholders are to provide any indemnification or otherwise assume any other post-closing liabilities, the Stockholders shall do so severally and not jointly (and on a pro rata basis in accordance with the proceeds to be received by such Stockholder), other than with respect to any individual representation made by the Stockholders (which such individual representations shall be limited to capacity, ownership of the Shares to be sold by it (including its ability to convey title free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, adverse claims or similar restrictions), no conflicts with agreements to which it is a party, no conflicts with law, authority and enforceability on its part) and in no event will the Stockholders’ respective potential liability thereunder exceed the proceeds received by such Stockholder.

Section 2.04    Transfers and Counterparties to the Agreement. In each case of a Transfer by a Stockholder to a Permitted Transferee and in any other case necessitated by future amendments to this Agreement, a Transfer of any Shares by any Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement shall not become effective unless and until the Transferee (unless already a party to this Agreement) executes and delivers to the Company a counterpart to this Agreement.

10

Section 2.05    Transaction Expenses. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 9.16, each Stockholder shall bear its pro-rata share of the costs and expenses of any transaction in which it sells Shares (based upon the net proceeds received by such Stockholder in such transaction) to the extent such costs are incurred for the benefit of all holders of Shares and are not otherwise paid by the Company or the acquiring party.

Section 2.06    Legends. Each certificate (if certificated) evidencing the Shares acquired by the Stockholders will bear the following legends reflecting the restrictions on the Transfer of such securities contained in this Agreement:

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF OR EXCHANGED UNLESS SUCH TRANSFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, PLEDGE, ENCUMBRANCE, HYPOTHECATION OR OTHER DISPOSITION OR EXCHANGE COMPLIES WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2011, AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, AMONG THE COMPANY AND THE STOCKHOLDERS PARTY THERETO, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY AND ANY TRANSFER IN VIOLATION OF SUCH STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT SHALL BE NULL AND VOID.”

Section 2.07    Regulatory Matters. No Stockholder shall Transfer any equity interests in the Company prior to receipt of all regulatory or legal approvals that, based on advice of counsel, are required for such Transfer. To the extent that any regulatory or legal filings are so required in connection with such proposed Transfer, the Company shall cooperate and use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain or, if applicable, assist such Stockholders in obtaining, such approvals. For the avoidance of doubt, commercially reasonable efforts of the Company under this Section 2.07 shall include the payment by the Company of reasonable fees and expenses of the Company or its subsidiaries related to such regulatory or legal filings.

ARTICLE III.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

Section 3.01    Requested Registration.

11

Investor shall provide notice to the Company and the other Stockholder of its election to cause an Initial Public Offering, and as part of such notice the Initiating Investor will notify the Company and the other Stockholder of whether it intends to include any of the Registrable Securities held by such Initiating Investor in such Initial Public Offering and the Company will, as soon as practicable, use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect such Registration (including, without limitation, filing post-effective amendments, appropriate qualification under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all of the Equity Securities of the Company and, in the event that such Initiating Investor intends to include all or a part of the Registrable Securities held by such Initiating Investor in such Initial Public Offering, all or such portion of such Registrable Securities of the Initiating Investor as are specified in such request, together with, solely if the Initiating Investor has elected to include all or a part of the Registrable Securities held by such Initiating Investor in such Initial Public Offering, all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of the other Stockholder joining in such request as are specified in a written request of such other Stockholder received by the Company within fifteen (15) Business Days after written notice from the Initiating Investor is given to such other Stockholder pursuant to this sentence.

(b)    Request for Registration.

(i)    Following the occurrence of an Initial Public Offering, subject to Section 3.08, an Initiating Investor may elect to cause the Company to effect a Registration with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities held by such Initiating Investor on Form S-1 (or any successor form) in an amount greater than $25 million dollars (an “S-1 Demand”). In the event such Initiating Investor provides notice to the Company of its election to cause an S-1 Demand, the Company will (A) promptly give written notice of the proposed Registration to the other Stockholder; and (B) as soon as practicable, use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect such Registration (including, without limitation, filing post-effective amendments, appropriate qualification under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Registrable Securities of the Initiating Investor as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of the other Stockholder joining in such request as are specified in a written request of such other Stockholder received by the Company within fifteen (15) Business Days after written notice from the Company is given under Section 3.01(b)(i)(A) above.

(ii)    If the Company shall receive from an Initiating Investor, at any time after the Company is eligible to register Registrable Securities on Form S-3, a written request that the Company effect a Registration with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities held by such Initiating Investor on Form S-3 in an amount greater than five million dollars ($5,000,000), the Company will (A) promptly give written notice of the proposed Registration to the other Stockholder, and (B) as soon as practicable, use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect such Registration (including, without limitation, filing post-effective amendments, appropriate

12

qualification under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Registrable Securities of the Initiating Investor as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of the other Stockholder joining in such request as are specified in a written request of the other Stockholder received by the Company within fifteen (15) Business Days after written notice from the Company is given under Section 3.01(b)(ii)(A) above; provided that the Company shall not be obligated to effect, or take any action to effect, any such Registration pursuant to this Section 3.01(b)(ii) after the Company has effected three (3) such Registrations requested by such Initiating Investor pursuant to this Section 3.01(b)(ii) during the previous twelve (12) month period.

(iii)    If the Registration pursuant to Section 3.01(b)(ii) is for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor provisions) (a “Shelf Registration”), the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to maintain continuously in effect, supplement and amend, if necessary, the Shelf Registration, as required by the instructions applicable to such registration form or by the Securities Act, until there are no remaining Registrable Securities;

(iv)    If at any time, the Shelf Registration ceases to be effective, the Company shall file, not later than 30 days after such prior Shelf Registration ceased to be effective, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause to become effective a new Shelf Registration as soon as practicable. If, after any Shelf Registration has become effective, it is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other governmental agency or authority, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any prospectus and, if any such order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of any such order at the earliest possible moment.

(c)    Underwriting.

(i)    If an Initiating Investor intends to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by its request by means of an underwriting, it shall so advise the Company as a part of its request made pursuant to Section 3.01(a) or Section 3.01(b) or prior to the takedown of any Registrable Securities registered pursuant to Section 3.01(b)(ii) and in each case the Company shall have the right to select the managing underwriter or underwriters to administer the Registration; provided that such managing underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to each Stockholder participating in such Registration if both Stockholders are participating in such Registration, or solely to the Stockholder participating in such Registration if the other Stockholder is not participating in such Registration. For the avoidance of doubt, the Board shall have the right to select the managing underwriter or underwriters to administer the Registration in an Initial Public Offering.

(ii)    If the Stockholder that is not an Initiating Investor requests inclusion of Registrable Securities in any Registration or underwriting contemplated by Section 3.01(a) or Section 3.01(b), the Initiating Investor may condition such offer on such other Stockholder’s acceptance of the further applicable provisions of this Article III. The Initiating Investor whose Registrable Securities are to be included in such Registration shall (together with the other Stockholder proposing to distribute its Registrable Securities through such underwriting) complete and execute all questionnaires, indemnities, powers of attorney and other documents required for such underwriting and enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form, with the representative of the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting.

(iii)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.01, if, in any Registration contemplated by Section 3.01(a) or Section 3.01(b), the managing underwriter advises the Company and the Stockholders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of Registrable Securities to be underwritten, the number of Registrable Securities included in the Registration by the Initiating Investor and the other Stockholder shall in each case be reduced on a pro rata basis (based on the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be included in such Registration), by such minimum number of Registrable Securities as is necessary to comply with such request. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Equity Securities being Registered by the Company for its own account in an Initial Public Offering pursuant to Section 3.01(a) shall be excluded. No Registrable Securities or any other securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of the underwriter’s marketing limitation shall be included in such Registration. If the other Stockholder who has requested inclusion in such Registration as provided above disapproves of the terms of the underwriting (including the terms of any indemnification required of such other Stockholder in the underwriting agreement related to such Registration), such Person may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company, the underwriter and the Initiating Investor. The securities so withdrawn shall also be withdrawn from Registration.

Section 3.02    Company Registration.

(a)    Following the consummation of an Initial Public Offering, if the Company shall determine to Register any of its Equity Securities either for its own account (other than a Registration (x) relating solely to employee stock or benefit plans, (y) relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction, or (z) on any registration form which does not permit secondary sales or does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of Registrable Securities) or for the account of other holders of Equity Securities of the Company or to sell registered securities from a Shelf Registration in an underwritten offering, the Company will:

(i)    promptly give to each Stockholder a written notice thereof;

(ii)    promptly give to each Stockholder a written notice of any underwriting of a shelf takedown; and

14

(iii)    include in such Registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests, made by the Stockholders within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the last written notice from the Company described in clause (i) above; provided that in the case of a shelf takedown such request shall be made in time to be included in the shelf takedown. Such written request may specify all or a part of the Stockholder’s Registrable Securities.

(b)    Underwriting.

(i)    If the Registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Stockholders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 3.02(a)(i). In such event, the right of each Stockholder to include its Registrable Securities in such Registration pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall be conditioned upon such Stockholder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Stockholder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. Each Stockholder whose Registrable Securities are to be included in such Registration shall (together with the Company) agrees to sell such Stockholder’s Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any customary underwriting arrangements approved by the Company and complete and execute all customary questionnaires, power of attorney, indemnities and other documents, in each case in customary form, required for such underwriting arrangements and enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the representative of the underwriter or underwriters selected for underwriting by the Company.

(ii)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.02, if the representative of the underwriter or underwriters determines that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of Registrable Securities to be underwritten, the representative may (subject to the allocation priority set forth below) exclude from such Registration and underwriting some or all of the Registrable Securities which would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto. The Company shall so advise all Stockholders requesting Registration, and the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the Registration and underwriting by each of the Stockholders shall be reduced, on a pro rata basis (based on the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be in included in such Registration), by such minimum number of shares as is necessary to comply with such limitation. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Equity Securities being Registered by the Company for its own account shall be excluded. If any of the Stockholders disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, it may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter. Any Registrable Securities or other securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration.

Section 3.03    Company Control. The Stockholders shall not be permitted to sell any securities pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.02 at any time that the Board determines in good faith that it would be materially detrimental to the Company or its stockholders for sales of securities to be made; provided that all Stockholders shall be treated consistently in connection with each such determination; and provided further, that the Company shall promptly notify each

15

Stockholder in writing of any such action and provided further, that any such delay may not last more than sixty (60) days and such delays may not be in effect more than one hundred and twenty (120) days during any three hundred and sixty-five (365) day period.

Section 3.04    Expenses of Registration; Cooperation.

(a)    All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any Registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Article III shall be borne by the Company, except that the costs and expenses of more than one special counsel to any Stockholder shall be borne by such Stockholder.

(b)    The Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective directors and officers shall cooperate with the Stockholders (including, but not limited to, participation in any “road-show” or similar equity marketing meetings and the preparation of the materials related thereto) and use their commercially reasonable efforts to consummate such Registration in a timely manner.

Section 3.05    Registration Procedures. In the case of each Registration effected by the Company pursuant to this Article III, the Company will keep the Stockholders, as applicable, advised in writing as to the initiation of each Registration and as to the completion thereof. At its expense, the Company will, subject to the terms of this Article III:

(a)    keep such Registration that has become effective continuously current and effective, and not subject to any stop order, injunction or other similar order or requirement of the Commission, until the earlier of (x) the expiration of the Required Period and (y) the date on which all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration (i) have been disposed of pursuant to such Registration or (ii) cease to be Registrable Securities. In the event of any stop order, injunction or other similar order or requirement of the Commission or any other governmental or regulatory authority relating to any Registration, the Required Period for such Registration will be extended by the number of days during which such stop order, injunction or similar order or requirement is in effect. No request for Registration for purposes of Section 3.01(a) or (b) shall be deemed to have been effected while (x) such Registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or other governmental or regulatory authority or (y) the conditions to closing specified in the underwriting agreement, if any, entered into in connection with such Registration are not satisfied other than by reason of a wrongful act, misrepresentation or breach of such applicable underwriting agreement by the Initiating Investor.

(b)    furnish such number of prospectuses, offer documents and other documents incident thereto as each of the Stockholders, as applicable, from time to time may reasonably request;

(c)    notify each Stockholder of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act or other applicable law 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

16

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;

(d)    furnish, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold through underwriters or, if such securities are not being sold through underwriters, on the date that the registration statement with respect to such securities becomes effective, (i) an opinion and negative assurance letter, dated as of such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such Registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the Stockholders participating in such Registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Stockholders participating in such Registration 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 and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the Stockholders participating in such Registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and if permitted by applicable accounting standards, to the Stockholders participating in such Registration;

(e)    before filing any registration statement, prospectus, offer document and other documents incident or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company shall furnish to and afford each Stockholder covered by such document, and its advisors, and the managing underwriters, if any, a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on copies of all such documents (including copies of all exhibits thereto) proposed to be filed;

(f)    make available upon reasonable advance notice for inspection by any Stockholder of such Registrable Securities, any underwriter participating in any such distribution and any attorney, accountant or other professional retained by any such Stockholder or underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to conduct a “reasonable” investigation for purposes of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and other applicable antifraud and securities laws and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to make available for inspection all information reasonably requested by such Stockholders in connection with such Offer Document;

(a)    To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify each of the Stockholders, as applicable, each of its officers, directors and partners, and each Person controlling each of the Stockholders, with respect to each Registration which has been effected pursuant to this Article III, and each underwriter for such Stockholders, if any, and each person who controls any underwriter, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any of the following (each, a “Violation”): (x) any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any marketing materials, prospectus, offering circular or other document (including any related registration statement, notification or the like) incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance, (y) any 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 (z) any violation by the Company of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or any rule or regulation thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any such Registration, qualification or compliance; and will reimburse each of the Stockholders, each of its officers, directors and partners, and each Person controlling each of the Stockholders, each such underwriter and each Person who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating and defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action; provided that the Company will not be liable in any such case to any Stockholder, underwriter or controlling person to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon information furnished to the Company by the Stockholder, underwriter or controlling person seeking to be indemnified, where such information is specifically provided in writing for use in such prospectus, offering circular or other document.

(b)    Each of the Stockholders will, if Registrable Securities held by it are included in the securities as to which such Registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify the Company, each of its directors and officers and each underwriter, if any, of the Company’s securities covered by such a registration statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter, each other Stockholder and each of their officers, directors, and partners, and each person controlling such other Stockholder against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other offering document made in writing by such Stockholder for the express purpose of inclusion in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements by such Stockholder therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and such Other Stockholder, directors, officers, partners, persons, underwriters or control persons for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and

18

in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Stockholder and stated to be specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the obligations of each of the Stockholders hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds to such Stockholder of securities sold in such offering as contemplated herein.

(c)    Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 3.06 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld) and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense (unless the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in such action, in which case the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party); provided further that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article III except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Each Indemnified Party shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.

(d)    If the indemnification provided for in this Section 3.06 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 which resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. 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 (or alleged 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)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with any underwritten public offering contemplated by this Agreement are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in such underwriting agreement shall be controlling.

19

The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the shares (or securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of said period.
