(a) If an Investor Group (a “Selling Tag Investor”) proposes to Transfer Common Shares representing 20% or more of the outstanding Common Shares to a Third Party Purchaser, in one or a series of related transactions (other than in an Initial Public Offering), then such Selling Tag Investor shall offer each other Investor that has an Investor Percentage Interest of at least 1% (each, a “Tag-Along Rightholder”) the right to include in such Selling Tag Investor’s Transfer to the Third Party Purchaser the Tag-Along Rightholder’s pro rata portion of the Common Shares proposed to be Transferred by the Selling Tag Investor determined based on the relative ownership of Common Shares held by the Selling Tag Investor and Tag-Along Rightholders, at the same price and on the same terms and conditions described in the Tag-Along Notice.

(b) Prior to the consummation of any proposed Transfer described in Section 3.2(a) (a “Proposed Transfer”), the Selling Tag Investor proposing to make such Proposed Transfer shall offer to the other Tag-Along Rightholders the right to be included in the Proposed Transfer by sending written notice (a “Tag-Along Notice”) to the Company and the Tag-Along Rightholders, which notice shall (i) state the name of such Selling Tag Investor,

-11-

(ii) state the name and address of the proposed Third Party Purchaser, (iii) state the number of such Selling Tag Investor’s Common Shares proposed to be sold, (iv) state the proposed purchase price and form of consideration of payment and all other material terms and conditions of such sale, (v) include a calculation of the consideration to be received per Common Share by each Tag-Along Rightholder and (vi) include a representation that the Third Party Purchaser has been informed of the “tag-along” rights provided in this Section 3.2 and has agreed to purchase the Common Shares in accordance with the terms hereof. Such right shall be exercisable by written notice to the Selling Tag Investor (with a copy to the Company) given within five Business Days after delivery of the Tag-Along Notice (the “Tag-Along Notice Period”) specifying the number of Common Shares with respect to which such Tag-Along Rightholder has elected to exercise its rights under this Section 3.2. If the Third Party Purchaser elects to purchase less than all of the Common Shares offered for sale as a result of the Tag-Along Rightholders’ exercise of their “tag-along” rights provided in this Section 3.2, the Selling Tag Investor and each Tag-Along Rightholder exercising its rights under this Section 3.2(b) (a “Participating Tag-Along Rightholder”) shall have the right to include its pro rata portion of the Common Shares to be Transferred to the Third Party Purchaser, determined based on the relative ownership of Common Shares held by the Selling Tag Investor and Tag-Along Rightholders, on the same terms and conditions as the Selling Tag Investor in exchange for the pro rata portion of consideration to be received by the Selling Tag Investor. Failure by a Tag-Along Rightholder to respond within the Tag-Along Notice Period shall be regarded as a rejection of the offer made pursuant to the Tag-Along Notice and a waiver by such Tag-Along Rightholder of its rights under this Section 3.2 with respect to (but only with respect to) the applicable Tag-Along Notice.

(c) Each Participating Tag-Along Rightholder agrees (i) to make such representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements to the Third Party Purchaser as made by the Selling Tag Investor in connection with the tag-along Transfer and (ii) to accept substantially the same terms and conditions to the Transfer as are applicable to the Selling Tag Investor (including the same (but proportionate) consideration the Selling Tag Investor receives); provided, that (A) the representations, warranties, indemnities, covenants, conditions, escrow agreements and other provisions and agreements relating to such tag-along Transfer shall in no event be broader or more burdensome than those given by the Selling Tag Investor; (B) each Participating Tag-Along Rightholder shall only be obligated to make individual representations and warranties with respect to its title to and ownership of the applicable Common Shares, authorization, execution and delivery of relevant documents, enforceability of such documents against such Participating Tag-Along Rightholder, and other matters relating to such Participating Tag-Along Rightholder, but not with respect to any of the foregoing with respect to any other Investors or the Selling Tag Investor or their Common Shares or the Company and its Subsidiaries; (C) all representations and warranties in the applicable transaction agreement with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be made by the Selling Tag Investor or the Company and the Participating Tag-Along Rightholders shall be severally and not jointly liable with respect to any indemnification obligation with respect thereto, and any such indemnification obligation shall be pro rata based on the proceeds received by such Participating Tag-Along Rightholder, in each case, in an amount not to exceed the aggregate proceeds received by such Participating Tag-Along Rightholder; and (D) in no event shall any Participating Tag-Along Rightholder be required to enter into a non-compete, non-solicit or similar restrictive covenant.

-12-

(d) The tag-along rights set forth in this Section 3.2 shall apply to proposed Transfers of other equity Securities of the Company held by the Investors, mutatis mutandis.

Section 3.3 Drag-Along Right.

(a) If an Investor or group of Investors with an aggregate Investor Percentage Interest equal to or greater than 50% (the “Dragging Investor”) proposes to consummate a Company Sale to a Third Party Purchaser (a “Drag Third Party Purchaser”) in exchange for cash and/or freely transferable and marketable securities (such a transaction, a “Drag-Along Sale”), then such Dragging Investors shall have the right to require each Investor to include its Common Shares in such Company Sale and/or vote its Common Shares and take any other actions in furtherance thereof on the same terms and conditions applicable to the Dragging Investors, including by waiving any appraisal or similar rights with respect to the Drag-Along Sale and executing any action by written consent of the Investors. Such right shall be exercisable by written notice (a “Buyout Notice”) given to each Investor other than the Dragging Investors that shall state (i) that such Dragging Investors propose to effect the Drag-Along Sale to such Drag Third Party Purchaser, (ii) the name of the Drag Third Party Purchaser, and (iii) the purchase price the Drag Third Party Purchaser is paying for the Common Shares and that shall include a copy of any definitive agreements in connection with such Drag-Along Sale. Each such Investor agrees that, upon receipt of a Buyout Notice, such Investor shall be obligated to sell all of its Common Shares for the purchase price set forth in the Buyout Notice (on the same price and with the same (but proportionate) amount of consideration or choice of consideration given to all other Investors) and on the other terms and subject to the conditions of such transaction (and otherwise take all reasonably necessary action to cause consummation of the proposed transaction).

(b) The closing of any Drag-Along Sale pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall be held as promptly as practicable and at the time and place specified in the Buyout Notice, but in any event within nine months after the date the Buyout Notice is delivered to the Investors; provided, that such nine-month period may be extended at the election of the Dragging Investors for a period of up to 90 days to the extent necessary to obtain any regulatory approvals required in connection with the Drag-Along Sale (the “Drag-Along Outside Date”). Consummation of the Transfer of Common Shares by any Investor to the Drag Third Party Purchaser in a Drag-Along Sale (i) shall be conditioned upon consummation of the Transfer by each Dragging Investor to such Drag Third Party Purchaser of the Common Shares proposed to be Transferred by the Dragging Investor and (ii) may be effected by a Transfer of such Common Shares or the merger, consolidation or other combination of the Company with or into the Drag Third Party Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, in one or a series of related transactions. If the proposed Transfer with respect to the applicable Common Shares subject to the Buyout Notice does not meet the requirements of Section 3.3(a) prior to the Drag-Along Outside Date, such Dragging Investors shall be deemed to have forfeited their rights to require the other Investors to sell all of their Common Shares to such Drag Third Party Purchaser in connection with such Drag-Along Sale.

(c) In connection with any Transfer pursuant to a Buyout Notice, each Investor shall execute the applicable transaction agreement and make or provide the same representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities, agreements, escrows and holdback arrangements as the Dragging Investors make or provide in connection with the Drag-Along Sale

-13-

(such representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities, agreements, escrows and holdback arrangements to be set forth in the Buyout Notice); provided, that each Investor shall be obligated to make only individual representations and warranties with respect to its title to and ownership of the applicable Common Shares, authorization, execution and delivery of relevant documents, enforceability of such documents against such Investor, and other matters relating to such Investor, but not with respect to any of the foregoing with respect to any other Investors or their Common Shares or the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, further, that all representations and warranties in the applicable transaction agreement with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be made by the Dragging Investors or the Company and the other Investors shall be severally and not jointly liable with respect to any indemnification obligation with respect thereto, and any such indemnification obligation shall be pro rata based on the proceeds received by such Investors, in each case, in an amount not to exceed the aggregate proceeds received by such Investors; provided, further, in no event shall any Investor be required to enter into a non-compete, non-solicit or other similar restrictive covenant. Any transaction costs, including legal, accounting and investment banking fees and expenses incurred in connection with a Drag-Along Sale and for the benefit of all Investors (it being understood that costs incurred by or on behalf of an Investor for its sole benefit shall not be considered to be for the benefit of all Investors), shall be paid or reimbursed by the Company or the Drag Third Party Purchaser.

(d) Each Investor hereby grants to the Company (i) an irrevocable proxy coupled with an interest to vote, including in any action taken by written consent, such Investor’s Common Shares to approve any Drag-Along Sale pursuant to this Section 3.3 and (ii) an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest to execute and deliver in the name and on behalf of such Investor all such agreements, instruments and other documentation as is required to transfer such Investor’s Common Shares and to take any other actions in furtherance thereof, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.3(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may exercise the proxy and power of attorney granted by each Investor pursuant to this Section 3.3(d) at any time as may be necessary to consummate a Drag-Along Sale pursuant to this Section 3.3 only if such Investor fails to comply with the provisions of this Section 3.3 within five days of receiving notice of any such request.

Section 3.4 Right of First Offer.

(a) Transfer Notice. Other than the Glendon Investor, the Monarch Investor, the Owl Creek Investor, the Intermarket Investor or any of their respective Affiliates, no Investor (a “ROFO Transferor”) shall be permitted to Transfer Common Shares representing 1% or more of the outstanding Common Shares, in one or a series of related transactions (other than to any of its Affiliates, in any Transfer that is subject to or pursuant to Section 3.2, in a Drag-Along Sale or in an Initial Public Offering) to any Person (a “Proposed ROFO Transferee”), and any such proposed Transfer shall be null and void ab initio, unless, prior to the consummation of such Transfer, the ROFO Transferor delivers a written notice (a “ROFO Offer Notice”) at least ten Business Days prior to the date that such Transfer is to be consummated (provided, that such notice period (as it may be extended pursuant to this proviso, the “ROFO Offer Period”) shall be extended if the Board determines in good faith that any Qualifying Investor possesses material non-public information about the Company that would prevent such Qualifying Investor from purchasing Common Shares of the Company during the ROFO Offer Period) to each Qualifying Investor (or, at the election of the ROFO Transferor, to the Company for further delivery to each

-14-

Qualifying Investor) (each, a “ROFO Offeree”) that sets forth (i) the number of Common Shares proposed to be Transferred by the ROFO Transferor (the “Offer Shares”) and (ii) the purchase price per Common Share (the “Sale Price”), the form of consideration and the terms and conditions of payment offered by the Proposed ROFO Transferee, and any other material terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer (including a description of any non-cash consideration in sufficient detail to permit a valuation thereof) (collectively, the “ROFO Offer Terms”). Each ROFO Offer Notice shall constitute a binding, irrevocable and exclusive offer by such ROFO Transferor to sell to the ROFO Offerees (pro rata in accordance with their holdings of Common Shares as set forth below) the Offer Shares at the Sale Price on the material terms set forth in the Offer Notice.

(b) Option of the ROFO Offerees. The ROFO Offer Notice delivered pursuant to Section 3.4(a) shall constitute, for a period of ten Business Days after the delivery thereof, a binding, irrevocable and exclusive offer to sell to the ROFO Offerees any or all of the Offer Shares on the ROFO Offer Terms (at the Sale Price set forth therein); provided, that if the ROFO Offer Terms provide for payment of any non-cash consideration, the ROFO Offerees may elect to pay the purchase price in respect of such non-cash consideration in cash in an amount that is equal to the fair market value of such non-cash consideration described in the ROFO Offer Terms, as determined in good faith and mutually agreed by the ROFO Transferor and the ROFO Offerees (provided, that if the ROFO Transferor and the ROFO Offerees are unable to so mutually agree within five days of the delivery of the ROFO Offer Notice, then the ROFO Transferor or any ROFO Offeree may commence the valuation process described in Section 3.4(d) and all periods set forth in this Section 3.4(b) shall be tolled for the duration of, and such periods (or the remaining portion thereof) shall recommence only on a final and binding determination of fair market value pursuant to, such valuation process); provided, further, that until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the ROFO Offer Period and (ii) the date that all ROFO Offerees have definitively responded in writing to such ROFO Offer Notice, the ROFO Transferor may not effect the proposed Transfer to the Proposed ROFO Transferee. To accept such offer, a ROFO Offeree (any such ROFO Offeree, a “Participating ROFO Offeree”) shall deliver written notice (a “ROFO Acceptance Notice”) to the ROFO Transferor on or prior to the end of the ROFO Offer Period setting forth (A) its binding acceptance of such offer (including, at the election of the Participating ROFO Offeree, the maximum number of Common Shares such Participating ROFO Offeree is willing to purchase (which maximum number may be less than, the same as, or more than such Participating ROFO Offeree’s pro rata share of the Offer Shares)) and (B) the planned date for purchase of the Offer Shares, which shall be a reasonable date within ten Business Days after the date of the ROFO Acceptance Notice (the “Planned ROFO Purchase Date”). The ROFO Transferor shall be obligated to sell to each Participating ROFO Offeree, and each Participating ROFO Offeree shall be obligated to purchase from the ROFO Transferor, such Participating ROFO Offeree’s pro rata share of the Offer Shares, which pro rata share shall be determined based on the proportion of Common Shares held by such Participating ROFO Offeree in relation to Common Shares held by all Participating ROFO Offerees; provided, that no Participating ROFO Offeree shall be required to purchase more than the maximum number of Common Shares set forth in such Participating ROFO Offeree’s ROFO Acceptance Notice, and any Common Shares in excess of such maximum amount shall be allocated pro rata among the other Participating ROFO Offerees. The closing of such purchase and sale shall occur on the Planned ROFO Purchase Date or at such time and place as the ROFO Transferor and the Participating ROFO Offerees may agree, pursuant to an agreement containing reasonable and customary representations and warranties and other terms and conditions.

-15-

(c) Ability to Sell of the ROFO Transferor. If (i) the ROFO Offerees do not deliver ROFO Acceptance Notices on or prior to the end of the ROFO Offer Period, (ii) the Participating ROFO Offerees have not paid the full Sale Price for the Offer Shares on such terms and conditions as may be agreed between the ROFO Transferor and the Participating ROFO Offerees, or, in the absence of such agreement, in accordance with the ROFO Offer Terms, or (iii) the ROFO Acceptance Notices are for fewer than all of the Offer Shares, the ROFO Transferor may, during the 30-day period immediately following the end of the ROFO Offer Period, Transfer the Offer Shares (or, in the case of clause (iii), the remaining Offer Shares) to the Proposed ROFO Transferee for no less than the Sale Price and for the same form of consideration, and on substantially similar terms and conditions of payment, set forth in the ROFO Offer Terms, and otherwise on terms and conditions no more favorable to the Proposed ROFO Transferee than the ROFO Offer Terms; provided, that if the ROFO Transferor does not consummate the Transfer of such Offer Shares in accordance with the foregoing within such 30-day period (which period may be extended to the extent necessary to allow the ROFO Transferor and/or any Proposed ROFO Transferee to obtain any required approval or clearance from any Governmental Entity and subject to the ROFO Transferor and Proposed ROFO Transferee using reasonable best efforts to obtain any such approval or clearance during such period), any attempt to Transfer such Offer Shares shall again be subject to the provisions of this Section 3.4.

(d) Valuation Process for Non-Cash Consideration. If any ROFO Offer Terms provide for payment of any non-cash consideration, then the ROFO Transferor, on the one hand, and the ROFO Offerees on the other hand, shall negotiate in good faith to determine the fair market value of such non-cash consideration. If they are unable to agree on such fair market value within five days after the delivery of the ROFO Offer Notice, then the ROFO Transferor, on the one hand, or any ROFO Offeree, on the other hand, may commence the valuation process described in this Section 3.4(d) by providing written notice to the other party (such notice, a “Valuation Process Notice”). In the event a Valuation Process Notice is delivered, then within five days thereafter, the ROFO Transferor, on the one hand, and the ROFO Offerees, on the other hand, shall each appoint an internationally recognized investment banking firm (an “Appointed Bank”) and shall instruct its Appointed Bank to determine, by no later than five days after being appointed, its best estimate of the fair market value of the non-cash consideration, based on the customary methodologies that such Appointed Bank in its professional experience deems relevant to such a determination. On the fifth day following delivery of the Valuation Process Notice or such earlier date as may be mutually agreed between the ROFO Transferor and the ROFO Offerees, each Appointed Bank shall present to the other parties and its Appointed Bank its determination of the fair market value of such non-cash consideration. In the event the fair market values determined by the Appointed Banks are within 10% of each other (determined by reference to the higher of the two), the fair market value shall be the average of those two estimates and such determination of the fair market value of the non-cash consideration shall be final and binding on the ROFO Transferor and the ROFO Offerees. In the event the fair market values determined by the Appointed Banks are not within 10% of one another (determined by reference to the higher of the two), the Appointed Banks shall mutually select an additional internationally recognized investment banking firm (the “Independent Bank”) to determine, by no later than five days after being appointed, its best estimate of the fair market value of the non-cash consideration, based on the customary methodologies that such Independent Bank in its professional experience deems relevant to such a determination. The fair market value of the non-cash consideration shall then be determined by the Independent Bank, and such resulting determination shall be final and binding on the ROFO Transferor and the ROFO Offerees.

-16-

(e) The provisions of this Section 3.4 shall automatically terminate in their entirety and be of no further force and effect on the listing of the Common Shares on a National Securities Exchange.

Section 3.5 Cooperation. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with any Investor desiring to Transfer any or all of its Common Shares in accordance with and permitted by this Article III.

Section 3.6 Tolling. All time periods specified in this Article III are subject to reasonable extension for the purpose of complying with requirements of applicable laws, rules or regulations, as determined by the Board.

ARTICLE IV

PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS

Section 4.1 Preemptive Rights. Subject to Section 4.8, if the Company of any of its Subsidiaries proposes to issue any Common Shares or other equity Securities, or any Securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for any Common Shares or other equity Securities (the “New Securities”) to any Person (the “Subject Purchaser”), each Investor that has an Investor Percentage Interest of at least 1% (each, a “Preemptive Rights Holder”) shall have the right (a “Preemptive Right”) to purchase such Investor’s pro rata share of the New Securities, which pro rata share shall be determined based on the proportion of Common Shares held by such Investor in relation to the Common Shares held by all Investors (the “Proportionate Percentage”), at the same price and on the same other terms proposed to be issued and sold.

Section 4.2 Preemptive Offer Notice. Not later than ten Business Days prior to any issuance of New Securities giving rise to Preemptive Rights under Section 4.1, the Company shall deliver to each Preemptive Rights Holder a notice (the “Preemptive Offer Notice”) that (i) includes the principal terms and conditions of the proposed issuance, including (A) the number of New Securities proposed to be issued, (B) the price per unit of the New Securities and (C) the proposed issuance date, (ii) sets forth such Preemptive Rights Holder’s Proportionate Percentage and (iii) offers to sell to such Preemptive Rights Holder its Proportionate Percentage of such New Securities and of such New Securities as shall not have been subscribed for by the other Preemptive Rights Holders (as hereinafter provided), in each case at the price and on the terms and conditions set forth therein. The Preemptive Offer Notice shall by its terms remain open for a period of ten Business Days from the date of delivery thereof (the “Election Period”) and shall specify the date on which the New Securities will be sold to accepting Preemptive Rights Holders (which shall be at least five Business Days but not more than 180 days after the date of delivery of the Preemptive Offer Notice). The failure of any Preemptive Rights Holder to respond to the Preemptive Offer Notice during the Election Period shall be deemed a waiver of such Preemptive Rights Holder’s Preemptive Rights with respect to the applicable Preemptive Offer Notice.

-17-

Section 4.3 Post-Issuance Notice. Notwithstanding the advance notice requirements set forth in Section 4.2, if the Board determines that special circumstances warrant, the Company may provide a Preemptive Offer Notice after the issuance of the New Securities (the “Issuance”), in which case the Company shall ensure that each Preemptive Rights Holder that elects to exercise its Preemptive Rights within the Election Period is offered the right to acquire from the Subject Purchaser (or from the Company, or the issuing Subsidiary of the Company, as applicable, following (if the Company so elects) a corresponding redemption from such Subject Purchaser), promptly following the Issuance, such Preemptive Rights Holder’s Proportionate Percentage of the New Securities that were issued in the Issuance and otherwise on the terms set forth in Section 4.1, Section 4.2, Section 4.4 and Section 4.5.

Section 4.4 Acceptance. Each Preemptive Rights Holder shall have the right, during the Election Period, to elect to purchase any or all of its Proportionate Percentage of the New Securities at the purchase price and on the terms stated in the Preemptive Offer Notice. Notice by any Preemptive Rights Holder of its acceptance, in whole or in part, of the offer set forth in such Preemptive Offer Notice (a “Notice of Acceptance”) shall be irrevocable and shall be signed by such Preemptive Rights Holder and delivered to the Company prior to the end of the Election Period, setting forth the number of New Securities such Preemptive Rights Holder elects to purchase.

Section 4.5 Underallotment. Each Preemptive Rights Holder shall have the additional right to offer in its Notice of Acceptance to purchase any of the New Securities not accepted for purchase by any other Preemptive Rights Holders, in which event such New Securities not accepted by such other Preemptive Rights Holders shall be deemed to have been offered to and accepted by the Preemptive Rights Holders exercising such additional right under this Section 4.5 pro rata in accordance with their respective Proportionate Percentages (determined without regard to those Preemptive Rights Holders not electing to purchase their full respective Proportionate Percentages) on the same terms and conditions as those specified in the Preemptive Offer Notice, but in no event shall any such electing Preemptive Rights Holder be allocated a number of New Securities in excess of the maximum number of New Securities such Preemptive Rights Holder has elected to purchase in its Notice of Acceptance.

Section 4.6 Closing. The closing of an issuance of New Securities pursuant to this Article IV shall take place on the proposed issuance date set forth in the Preemptive Offer Notice; provided, that consummation of any issuance may be extended beyond such date to the extent necessary to obtain any applicable governmental approval or other required approval or to satisfy other conditions set forth in the Preemptive Offer Notice. At the closing of such issuance, each Investor participating in the issuance shall be delivered the notes, certificates or other instruments (if any) evidencing the New Securities to be issued to such Investor, registered in the name of such Investor or its designated nominee, free and clear of any liens (other than any liens arising pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or applicable securities laws), with any transfer tax stamps affixed, against delivery by such Investor of the applicable consideration. Each Investor participating in such issuance shall take or cause to be taken all such reasonable actions as may be reasonably necessary or reasonably desirable in order to expeditiously consummate such Issuance pursuant to this Article IV and any related transactions, including executing, acknowledging and delivering consents, assignments, waivers and other documents or instruments and filing applications, reports, returns, filings and other documents or instruments with Governmental Entities.

-18-

Section 4.7 Post-Closing Sales. If Notices of Acceptance given by the Preemptive Rights Holders do not cover in the aggregate all of the New Securities, the Company may during the 180 days following the end of the Election Period sell to any other Person or Persons all or any part of the New Securities not covered by such Notices of Acceptance, but only on terms and conditions that are no more favorable, with respect to price or other material terms in the aggregate, to such Person or Persons or less favorable, with respect to price or other material terms in the aggregate, to the Company than those set forth in the Preemptive Offer Notice. If such sale is not consummated within such 180-day period for any reason, then the restrictions provided for in this Article IV shall again become effective.

Section 4.8 Excluded Transactions. The Preemptive Rights under this Article IV shall not apply to (a) issuances or sales of Securities to employees, officers, directors, managers or consultants of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to employee benefits or similar employee or management equity incentive plans or arrangements of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (b) issuance or sales to a Person in connection with an acquisition (or series of acquisitions), business combination or merger approved by the Board; (c) issuances of Securities to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (d) issuances of Securities pursuant to the exercise, exchange or conversion of convertible securities or options.

(a) Except as and to the extent as may be required by applicable law, regulation or legal process, without the prior written consent of the Board, the Investors shall not, and shall direct their officers, directors, agents, employees and other representatives not to, disclose or permit the disclosure of any Confidential Information; provided, that an Investor and its equity owners may disclose Confidential Information (i) (A) to its investors, limited partners or other similar Persons who are subject to obligations of confidentiality or (B) in confidential materials delivered to prospective investors, limited partners or other similar Persons who are subject to obligations of confidentiality; provided, that such Investor shall use reasonable best

-21-

efforts to, or cause its equity owners, to, enforce their respective rights in connection with a breach of such confidentiality obligations by any Person receiving Confidential Information pursuant to this clause (i); (ii) to a bona fide Qualified Prospective Investor; and (iii) to such Investor’s and its Affiliate’s respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors (including, without limitation, attorneys, accountants, consultants and financial advisors), in each case who have been advised as to the obligations of confidentiality set forth in this Agreement.

(b) If any Investor is required by applicable law, regulation or legal process (including the request of any regulator with jurisdiction over the Investor) to disclose any Confidential Information, it shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, first provide notice reasonably in advance to the Company with respect to the content of the proposed disclosure, the reasons that such disclosure is required and the time and place that the disclosure will be made. Such Investor shall cooperate, at the Company’s sole cost and expense, with the Company to obtain confidentiality agreements or arrangements with respect to any legally required disclosure and in any event shall disclose only such Confidential Information as is required by applicable law, regulation or legal process. The Investors’ obligations under this Section 6.2(b) shall not apply to disclosures made as part of an ordinary course audit or request for information from a regulator that is not specifically focused on the Company.

(b) Each Investor, individually and on behalf of the Company, expressly (i) acknowledges and agrees that no Investor nor any of its representatives (including any Director nominated by such Investor) shall have any duty to disclose to the Company or any other Investor any such business opportunities and renounces any expectancy or interest in such business opportunities, whether or not competitive with the Company’s businesses and whether or not the Company might be interested in such business opportunity for itself (except to the extent that (A) such representative is an officer, Director, consultant or employee of the Company or its Subsidiaries and (B) such opportunity was presented to such representative in his or her capacity as such); (ii) agrees that the terms of this Section 6.3, to the extent that they modify or limit a duty or other obligation (including fiduciary duties), if any, that an Investor, Director or other Person may have to the Company or any other Person under applicable law, rule or regulation, are reasonable in form, scope and content; and (iii) waives to the fullest extent permitted by Virginia Stock Corporation Act any duty or other obligation, if any, that an Investor, Director or other Person may have to the Company or another Person pursuant to applicable law, rule or regulation, to the extent necessary to give effect to the terms of this Section 6.3.

Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall enter into, modify (including by waiver) or terminate any transaction, agreement or arrangement with, or for the benefit of, any Related Person (other than employment or indemnification arrangements with officers or employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business) (any such transaction, agreement or arrangement or series of such related transactions, agreements or arrangements, a “Related Party Transaction”) unless such Related Party Transaction (a) is on terms and conditions at least as favorable to the Company or its Subsidiaries as could reasonably have been obtained in a comparable arms-length transaction by the Company with an unaffiliated party, as reasonably determined by a majority of the disinterested Directors and (b) has been approved by a majority of the disinterested Directors following disclosure to the Board of the material facts of the transaction and the interests of the Directors therein.

Section 6.5 National Securities Exchange. If the Board resolves to apply to list the Common Shares on a National Securities Exchange, then, as promptly as practicable after such resolution, the Company, the Board and the Investors shall take all Necessary Action, including amending this Agreement and the Company Organizational Documents, to ensure that the Company complies with the governance and other listing standards of the applicable National Securities Exchange. In furtherance of the foregoing, if the Glendon Investor and/or Monarch Investor has an Investor Percentage Interest of at least 10% at such time, then the Glendon Investor and/or the Monarch Investor, as applicable, shall, as promptly as practicable after such resolution, ensure that at least one of the Glendon Directors and at least one of the Monarch Directors, respectively, qualifies as “independent” pursuant to the listing standards of the applicable National Securities Exchange.

ARTICLE VII

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 7.1 Demand Registration Rights.

(a) Following the listing of the Common Shares on a National Securities Exchange, on up to five separate occasions, Investors holding Registrable Securities representing (i) not less than 10% of the outstanding Common Shares or (ii) from and after the fifth anniversary of the date hereof, not less than 5% of the outstanding Common Shares may request in writing that the Company effect a registration of some or all of such Registrable Securities with an estimated fair market value of at least $100,000,000 on Form S-1 (or any successor form thereto) under the Securities Act in connection with a public offering of the Common Shares. The right of each Requesting Investor to have Registrable Securities included in an offering pursuant to this Section 7.1(a) shall be conditioned (if an underwritten offering) upon each Requesting Investor entering into (together with the Company) an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company (the “Company Underwriter”). Subject to Section 7.3, the Company shall, at its

-23-

own expense and as soon as reasonable practicable after such written request, but in any event within 90 days after the date such request is given by the Requesting Investors, (A) file a registration statement on Form S-1 (or any successor form thereto) for all Registrable Securities that the Company has been requested to register and (B) include in such offering the Registrable Securities of the other Investors (other than the Requesting Investors) who have requested in writing to participate in such underwritten offering pursuant to Section 7.2.

(b) Following the listing of the Common Shares on a National Securities Exchange and the Company becoming eligible for use of Form S-3 (or any successor form thereto) under the Securities Act in connection with a public offering of its Securities, any Investor of group of Investors may request, in writing, that the Company register, under the Securities Act on Form S-3 (or any successor form then in effect) (an “S-3 Registration”), all or a portion of the Registrable Securities held by such Requesting Investors comprising at least 5% of the outstanding Common Shares at the time of such request. If requested by such Requesting Investors, such S-3 Registration shall be for an offering on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) cause such registration pursuant to this Section 7.1(b) to become and remain effective as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than 45 days after it receives a request therefor and (ii) subject to Section 7.3, include in such offering the Registrable Securities of the other Investors (other than the Requesting Investors) who have requested in writing to participate in such S-3 Registration pursuant to Section 7.2. The Company shall not be required to conduct an underwritten offering pursuant to such S-3 Registration unless the estimated fair market value of Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering is at least $100,000,000.

(c) If the Board, in its good faith judgment, determines that any registration of Registrable Securities should not be made or continued because it would materially interfere with any material financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or merger or other material transaction involving the Company (a “Valid Business Reason”), the Company may (i) postpone filing a Registration Statement relating to a S-3 Registration until such Valid Business Reason no longer exists, but in no event for a period of more than 90 days on any one occasion or for a period of more than 180 days during any 12-month period, and (ii) in case a Registration Statement has been filed relating to a S-3 Registration, if the Valid Business Reason has not resulted from actions taken by the Company, the Company, upon the approval of a majority of the Board acting in good faith, may cause such Registration Statement to be withdrawn and its effectiveness terminated or may postpone amending or supplementing such Registration Statement. The Company shall give written notice to the Investors of its determination to postpone or withdraw a Registration Statement and of the fact that the Valid Business Reason for such postponement or withdrawal no longer exists, in each case, promptly after the occurrence thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company may not postpone or withdraw a filing due to a Valid Business Reason more than three times in any 12-month period.

(d) The Company shall not be required to effect any registration pursuant to Section 7.1(b) (i) within 90 days after the effective date of any other Registration Statement of the Company or (ii) if Form S-3 is not available for such offering by the Requesting Investor.

-24-

Section 7.2 Piggyback Registration Right. Following the listing of the Common Shares on a National Securities Exchange, at any time the Company proposes for any reason to register any of its Common Shares under the Securities Act (other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor thereto), including in an offering pursuant to Section 7.1, the Company shall give written notice to each Investor that has an Investor Percentage Interest of at least 1% (each, a “Participating Investor”) at least 20 Business Days prior to the proposed offering. Following the receipt of such notice, each Participating Investor shall be entitled, by delivery of a written request to the Company delivered no later than ten days following receipt of notice from the Company, to include all or any portion of its Registrable Securities in such offering (subject to Section 7.3). The right of each Participating Investor to have its Registrable Securities included in an offering pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall be conditioned (if an underwritten offering) upon each Participating Investor entering into (together with the Company) an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Company Underwriter. Subject to Section 7.3, the Company shall (within ten Business Days of the notice provided for above) cause the Company Underwriter to permit the Participating Investor to participate in a registration pursuant to this Section 7.2 to include their Registrable Securities in such offering on the same terms and conditions as the Common Shares being sold for the account of the Company or any other Investor.

Section 7.3 Cutback. If the Company reasonably determines (after consultation with the relevant underwriter) that the number of Common Shares requested to be included in an underwritten offering contemplated by Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 exceeds the amount that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the distribution of the Common Shares being offered, then the Company shall reduce the number of Common Shares to be included in such offering as follows:

(a) in the case of an underwritten offering contemplated by Section 7.1, by (i) first only including Common Shares being sold for the account of the Requesting Investors, with each Requesting Investor entitled to include its pro rata share based on the number of Common Shares proposed to be included by such Requesting Investor, (ii) second, to the extent that all Common Shares being sold for the account of the Requesting Investors can be included, then only including the total number of Common Shares of the Participating Investors in such offering as the Company so determines can be included (in addition to all Common Shares being sold for the account of the Requesting Investors) with each Participating Investor entitled to include its pro rata share based on the number of Common Shares proposed to be included by such Participating Investor and (iii) third, to the extent that all Common Shares being sold for the account of the Requesting Investors and the Participating Investors can be included, then only including the total number of Common Shares being sold for the account of the Company that the Company so determines can be included; and

(b) in the case of an underwritten offering contemplated by Section 7.2, by (i) first only including the Common Shares being sold for the account of the Company that the Company so determines can be included and (ii) second, to the extent that all Common Shares being sold for the account of the Company can be included, then only including the total number of Common Shares of the Participating Investors in such offering as the Company so determines can be included (in addition to all Common Shares being sold for the account of the Company) with each Participating Investor entitled to include its pro rata share based on the number of Common Shares proposed to be included by such Participating Investor.

-25-

Section 7.4 Holdback Agreements.

(a) To the extent not inconsistent with applicable law and requested by the underwriter, in the case of an underwritten public offering by the Company or by the Investors pursuant to this Agreement, each Investor that has an Investor Percentage Interest of at least 1% agrees not to effect any public sale or distribution of any Common Shares or of any Securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Shares, including a sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or offer to sell, contract to sell (including any short sale), grant any option to purchase or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale of Common Shares, in each case, during the 180 day period (or such lesser period as the underwriter may agree) beginning on the effective date of the Registration Statement (except as part of such registration) for such public offering.

(b) The Company agrees not to effect any public sale or distribution of any of its Securities, or any Securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such Securities (except pursuant to registrations on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor thereto), during the period beginning on the effective date of any Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 7.1 in which the Investors are participating and ending on the earlier of (i) the date on which all Registrable Securities on such registration statement are sold and (ii) 180 days (or such lesser period as the underwriter may agree) after the effective date of such Registration Statement.

Section 7.5 Registration Procedures. Whenever registration of Common Shares has been requested pursuant to Section 7.1 or Section 7.2, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration and sale of such Common Shares in accordance with the intended method of distribution thereof as promptly as practicable, and in connection with any such request, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable:

(a) prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement on any form for which the Company then qualifies or which counsel for the Company shall deem appropriate and which form shall be available for the sale of such Common Shares in accordance with the intended method of distribution thereof, and cause such Registration Statement to become effective; provided, that (i) before filing a Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company shall provide one legal counsel selected by holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be included in such Registration Statement (“Investors’ Counsel”) with an adequate and appropriate opportunity to review and comment on such Registration Statement and each prospectus included therein (and each amendment or supplement thereto) to be filed with the SEC, subject to such documents being under the Company’s control, and (ii) the Company shall promptly notify the Investors’ Counsel and each seller of Common Shares of any stop order issued or threatened by the SEC and promptly take all action required to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if entered;

(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective for the lesser of (i) 180 days and (ii) such shorter period terminating when all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold; provided, that if a Requesting Investor has requested that an S-3 Registration be for an offering on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, then the Company shall keep such Registration Statement effective until all Common Shares covered by such Registration Statement have been sold;

-26-

(c) furnish to each seller of Common Shares, prior to filing a Registration Statement, a reasonable number of copies of such Registration Statement as is proposed to be filed, and thereafter such number of copies of such Registration Statement, each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case, including all exhibits thereto), and the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and any prospectus filed under Rule 424 under the Securities Act as each such seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities held by such seller;

(d) register or qualify such Common Shares under any “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions as any seller of Common Shares may request, and continue such qualification in effect in such jurisdiction for as long as permissible pursuant to the laws of such jurisdiction, or for as long as any such seller requests or until all of such Common Shares are sold, whichever is shortest, and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable any such seller to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller; provided, that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 7.5(d), (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (iii) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction;

(e) notify each seller of Common Shares at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, upon discovery that, or upon the happening of any event as a result of which, the prospectus included in such Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and the Company shall promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus and furnish to each seller of Common Shares a reasonable number of copies of such supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, after delivery to the purchasers of such Common Shares, such prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

(f) enter into and perform customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Company Underwriter) and take such other actions as are prudent and reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Common Shares, including causing its officers to participate in “road shows” and other information meetings organized by the Company Underwriter;

(g) upon execution of confidentiality agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, which shall be consistent with the due diligence and disclosure obligations under securities laws applicable to the Company and the Investors, make available at reasonable times for inspection by any managing underwriter participating in any disposition of such Common Shares pursuant to a Registration Statement, Investors’ Counsel and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any managing underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries

-27-

as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility, and cause the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ officers, directors and employees, and the independent public accountants of the Company, to supply all information reasonably requested by any such Person in connection with such Registration Statement;

(h) if such sale is pursuant to an underwritten offering, obtain comfort letters dated the effective date of the Registration Statement and the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement from the Company’s independent public accountants in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by comfort letters as Investors’ Counsel or the managing underwriter reasonably requests;

(i) furnish, at the request of any seller of Common Shares on the date such Common Shares are delivered to the underwriters for sale pursuant to such registration or, if such Common Shares are not being sold through underwriters, on the date the Registration Statement with respect to such Common Shares becomes effective, an opinion, dated such date, of counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the seller making such request, covering such legal matters with respect to the registration in respect of which such opinion is being given as the underwriters, if any, and such seller may reasonably request and are customarily included in such opinions;

(j) comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make generally available to its Security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable but no later than 15 months after the effective date of the Registration Statement, an earnings statement covering a period of 12 months beginning after the effective date of the Registration Statement, in a manner which satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder;

-28-

Section 7.7 Notice to Discontinue. Each Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 7.5(e), such Investor shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Common Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Common Shares until such Investor’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 7.5(e) and, if so directed by the Company, such Investor shall deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense), or destroy, all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Investor’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Common Shares that is current at the time of receipt of such notice. If the Company gives any such notice, the Company shall extend the period during which such Registration Statement shall be maintained effective pursuant to this Agreement (including the period referred to in Section 7.5(b)) by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to Section 7.5(e) to and including the date when sellers of such Common Shares under such Registration Statement shall have received the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by and meeting the requirements of Section 7.5(e).

Section 7.8 Registration Expenses. The Company shall pay all expenses arising from or incident to its performance of, or compliance with, this Agreement, up to a maximum aggregate amount of $100,000 per offering, including (i) SEC, stock exchange and FINRA registration and filing fees, (ii) all fees and expenses incurred in complying with securities or “blue sky” laws (including reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to any underwriter incurred in connection with “blue sky” qualifications of the Common Shares as may be set forth in any underwriting agreement), (iii) all printing, messenger and delivery expenses, (iv) the fees, charges and expenses of counsel to the Company and of its independent public accountants and any other accounting fees, charges and expenses incurred by the Company (including any expenses arising from any comfort letters or any special audits incident to or required by any registration or qualification) and the reasonable legal fees, charges and expenses of a single counsel to the Investors incurred by such Investors participating in any registration as a group, and (v) any liability insurance or other premiums for insurance obtained in connection with any S-3 Registration pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, regardless of whether such Registration Statement is declared effective.

Section 7.9 Indemnification; Contribution.

(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Investor, its partners, directors, officers, Affiliates and each Person who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) such Investor from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses (including amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromises and settlements, as fines and penalties and legal or other costs and reasonable expenses of investigating or defending against any claim or alleged claim) (collectively, “Liabilities”), arising out of or based upon any untrue, or allegedly untrue, statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or arising out of or based upon 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 in the case of any prospectus, in light of the circumstances such statements were made), except insofar as any such Liability arises out of or is

-29-

based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission contained in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus or final prospectus in reliance and in conformity with information concerning any Investor furnished in writing to the Company by such Investor expressly for use therein, including the information furnished to the Company pursuant to Section 7.9(b). The Company shall also provide customary indemnities to any underwriters of the Registrable Securities, their officers, directors and employees and each Person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Investors.

(b) Indemnification by the Investors. In connection with any Registration Statement in which any Investor is participating pursuant to Section 7.1 or Section 7.2, each Investor shall promptly furnish to the Company in writing such information with respect to such Investor as the Company may reasonably request or as may be required by law for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or prospectus and all information required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Company by such Investor not materially misleading or necessary to cause such Registration Statement not to omit a material fact with respect to such Investor necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading. Each Investor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its partners, directors, officers, Affiliates, any underwriter retained by the Company and each Person who controls the Company or such underwriter (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) from and against any and all Liabilities arising out of or based upon any untrue, or allegedly untrue, statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or arising out of or based upon 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 in the case of any prospectus, in light of the circumstances such statements were made), but if and only to the extent that such Liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged omission or alleged untrue statement or omission contained in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus or final prospectus in reliance and in conformity with information concerning such Investor furnished in writing by such Investor expressly for use therein, provided, however, that the total amount to be indemnified by each Investor pursuant to this Section 7.9(b) shall be limited to such Investor’s pro rata portion of the net proceeds (after deducting the underwriters’ discounts and commissions) received by such Investor in the offering to which the Registration Statement or prospectus relates.

(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any Person entitled to indemnification under this Section 7.9 (the “Indemnified Party”) agrees to give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party (the “Indemnifying Party”) after the receipt by the Indemnified Party of any written notice of the commencement of any Proceeding or investigation or threat thereof made in writing for which the Indemnified Party intends to claim indemnification or contribution pursuant to this Agreement; provided, that the failure so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any Liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party hereunder (except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced or otherwise forfeits substantive rights or defenses by reason of such failure). If notice of commencement of any such action is given to the Indemnifying Party as above provided, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it may wish, jointly with

-30-

any other Indemnifying Party similarly notified, to assume the defense of such action at its own expense, with counsel chosen by it and reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be paid by the Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party agrees to pay the same, (ii) the Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense of such action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party or (iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party and the Indemnified Party has been advised by such counsel that either (A) representation of such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct or (B) there may be one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party. In any of such cases, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Party, it being understood, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Parties. No Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any settlement entered into without its written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). No Indemnifying Party shall, without the consent of such Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which such Indemnified Party is a party and indemnity has been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability for claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.9 from the Indemnifying Party is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party hereunder in respect of any Liabilities referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and Indemnified Party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Liabilities, as well as other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the Liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.9(a), Section 7.9(b) and Section 7.9(c), any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or Proceeding; provided, that the total amount to be contributed by any Investor shall be limited to the net proceeds (after deducting the underwriters’ discounts and commissions) received by the Investor in the offering.

(e) Fraud. The Parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to Section 7.9(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(b) In addition to the approval required by Section 8.3(a):

(i) any amendment, modification or supplement of this Agreement or the Company Organizational Documents that on its face is disproportionately and materially adverse to the rights or obligations of any group of Investors as compared to any other group of Investors shall require the written approval of Investors holding not less than a majority of the Common Shares held by such disproportionately affected Investors;
