(the “Company”) entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with Odin 3, LLC, Odin 4, LLC, WB Atlas LLC, Neoplux No. 1 Private Equity (collectively, the “Financial Investors”) and Magnus Holdings Co., Ltd. (“Magnus”) that provides Magnus and the Financial Investors “demand” registration rights and customary “piggyback” registration rights and that will require the Company to file a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 covering all shares subject to the Registration Rights Agreement once the Company is eligible to use a Form S-3. The Registration Rights Agreement also provides that the Company will pay certain expenses relating to such registrations and indemnify the registration rights holders against certain liabilities that may arise under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments the registration rights holders may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

 

The Registration Rights Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated herein by reference. The terms of the Registration Rights Agreement are substantially the same as the terms set forth in the form of such agreement previously filed as Exhibit 10.19 to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-212116), as amended (the “Registration Statement”).
