***REGISTRATIONS AND OFFERINGS ***
2.1 Shelf Registration.
2.1.1 Filing.
(a) Within thirty (30) calendar days following the Closing Date (the “Filing Deadline”), New TriGemX shall submit to or file with the Commission a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form S-1 (the “Form S-1 Shelf”) or a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form S-3 (the “Form S-3 Shelf”), if New TriGemX is then eligible to use a Form S-3 Shelf, in each case, covering the resale of all the Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) Business Days prior to such submission or filing) on a delayed or continuous basis as permitted by Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar provision adopted by the Commission then in effect) and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have such Shelf declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) the 60th calendar day (or 90th calendar day if the Commission notifies New TriGemX that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the earlier of (A) the filing of the Registration Statement and (B) the Filing Deadline, and (ii) the 5th Business Day after the date New TriGemX is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration
5
Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review by the Commission (such deadline the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided that if the Filing Deadline or Effectiveness Deadline falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Filing Deadline or Effectiveness Deadline, as the case may be, shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business; provided further that New TriGemX’s obligations to include the Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement are contingent upon each Holder furnishing to New TriGemX a completed questionnaire in customary form containing the information required by Commission rules for a Registration Statement regarding the Holder, the securities of New TriGemX held by such Holder, as may be reasonably requested by New TriGemX to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities, and executing such documents in connection with such registration as New TriGemX may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations. If the Commission is closed for operations due to a government shutdown, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended by the same number of Business Days on which the Commission remains closed. Such Shelf shall provide for the resale of the Registrable Securities included therein pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available (the “Plan of Distribution”) to, and requested by, any Holder named therein. New TriGemX shall maintain a Shelf in accordance with the terms hereof, and shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements as may be necessary to keep a Shelf continuously effective, available for use to permit the Holders named therein to sell their Registrable Securities included therein and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities. In the event New TriGemX files a Form S-1 Shelf, New TriGemX shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to convert the Form S-1 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement) to a Form S-3 Shelf as soon as practicable after New TriGemX is eligible to use Form S-3. New TriGemX’s obligations under this Section 2.1.1 shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section*** 3.4*. Any failure by New TriGemX to file the Registration Statement by the Filing Deadline or to cause such Registration Statement to become effective by the Effectiveness Deadline shall not otherwise relieve New TriGemX of its obligations to file or cause the Registration Statement to become effective as set forth above in this Section 2.1.1. Upon notification that any Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission, and within two (2) Business Days thereafter, New TriGemX shall file the final prospectus under Rule 424 of the Securities Act.
(b) New TriGemX will provide a copy of such portions of the draft of the Registration Statement that include Holder Information to such Holder for review and comment at least two (2) Business Days in advance of filing the Registration Statement; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall New TriGemX be required to delay or postpone the filing of such Registration Statement as a result of or in connection with a Holder’s review. With respect to the Holder Information, New TriGemX shall request such information at least five (5) Business Days prior to the anticipated initial filing date of the Registration Statement.
(c) In no event shall a Holder be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless requested by the Commission; provided that if the Commission requests that a Holder be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, such Holder will have an opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement, it being understood that such withdrawal shall not relieve New TriGemX of its obligation to register for resale the Registrable Securities at a later date.
2.1.2 Subsequent Shelf Registration. If any Shelf ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time while Registrable Securities are still outstanding, New TriGemX shall, subject to Section*** 3.4*, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Shelf to again become effective as promptly as is reasonably practicable under the Securities Act (including using its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to amend such Shelf as promptly as is reasonably practicable in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf or file an additional registration statement as a Shelf Registration (a “Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement”) registering the resale of all Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) Business Days prior to such filing) pursuant to the Plan of Distribution. If a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is filed, New TriGemX shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the filing thereof (it being agreed that the Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) if New TriGemX is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) at the most recent applicable eligibility determination date) and (ii) keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, available for use to permit the Holders named therein to sell their Registrable Securities included therein
6
and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 to the extent that New TriGemX is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on another appropriate form. New TriGemX’s obligations under this Section 2.1.2 shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section*** 3.4*.
2.1.3 Additional Registration Statement(s). Subject to Section 3.4, in the event that any Holder holds Registrable Securities that are not registered for resale on a delayed or continuous basis, New TriGemX, upon written request of such Holder at any time beginning thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Lock-up Period (if applicable), shall promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the resale of such Registrable Securities to be covered by filing a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement and cause the same to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing, and such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be subject to the terms hereof; provided, however, that New TriGemX shall only be required to cause such additional Registrable Securities to be so covered twice per calendar year for the Sponsor, TCG Crossover, and the Legacy SPAC Investors, and six times per calendar year for the TriGemX Holders (excluding any TriGemX Holders that are affiliated with TCG Crossover).
2.1.4 Requests for Underwritten Offerings. Subject to Section*** 3.4*, at any time and from time to time beginning thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Lock-up Period (if applicable), the Sponsor and TCG Crossover, or a TriGemX Holder (any such Holder being in such case, a “Demanding Holder”) may request to sell all or any portion of its Registrable Securities in an Underwritten Offering that is registered pursuant to the Shelf; provided that New TriGemX shall only be obligated to effect an Underwritten Offering following the expiration of the Lock-up Period (if applicable) if such offering shall include Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by the Demanding Holder, either individually or together with other Demanding Holders, with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $50,000,000 (the “Minimum Takedown Threshold”). All requests for Underwritten Offerings shall be made by giving written notice to New TriGemX, which shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Offering. Subject to Section*** 2.4.4*, the initial Demanding Holder shall have the right to select the Underwriters for such offering (which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks), subject to New TriGemX’s prior approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Sponsor and TCG Crossover may demand not more than two (2) Underwritten Offerings pursuant to this Section*** 2.1.4* in any twelve (12) month period, and the TriGemX Holders (excluding any TriGemX Holders that are affiliated with TCG Crossover) may demand not more than two (2) Underwritten Offerings pursuant to this Section*** 2.1.4* in any twelve (12) month period, for an aggregate of not more than four (4) Underwritten Offerings pursuant to this Section*** 2.1.4* in any twelve (12) month period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, New TriGemX may effect any Underwritten Offering pursuant to any then effective Registration Statement, including a Form S-3, that is then available for such offering.
2.1.5 Reduction of Underwritten Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Offering, in good faith, advise New TriGemX, the Demanding Holders and the Holders requesting piggyback rights pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such Underwritten Offering (such Holders, the “Requesting Holders”) (if any) in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) desire to sell, taken together with all other New TriGemX Shares or other equity securities that New TriGemX desires to sell and all other New TriGemX Shares or other equity securities, if any, that have been requested to be sold in such Underwritten Offering pursuant to separate written contractual piggyback registration rights held by any other stockholders, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten Offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Securities”), then New TriGemX shall include in such Underwritten Offering, before including any New TriGemX Shares or other equity securities proposed to be sold by New TriGemX or by other holders of New TriGemX Shares or other equity securities, (i) first, the Registrable Securities of the Demanding Holders that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Demanding Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Offering and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that all of the Demanding Holders have requested be included in such Underwritten Offering), (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Registrable Securities of the Requesting Holders (if any) (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Requesting Holder (if any) has requested be included in such Underwritten Offering and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that all of the Requesting Holders have requested be included in such
7
Underwritten Offering) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities, (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the New TriGemX Shares or other equity securities that New TriGemX desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities, and (iv) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the New TriGemX Shares or other equity securities of persons other than Holders of Registrable Securities that New TriGemX is obligated to register in a Registration pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.
2.1.6 Withdrawal. Prior to the filing of the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement used for marketing such Underwritten Offering, a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating an Underwritten Offering shall have the right to withdraw from such Underwritten Offering for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification (a “Withdrawal Notice”) to New TriGemX and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of their intention to withdraw from such Underwritten Offering; provided that the Sponsor, TCG Crossover, or a TriGemX Holder may elect to have New TriGemX continue an Underwritten Offering if the Minimum Takedown Threshold would still be satisfied by the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Offering by the Sponsor, TCG Crossover, the TriGemX Holders or any of their respective Permitted Transferees, as applicable. If withdrawn, a demand for an Underwritten Offering shall constitute a demand for an Underwritten Offering by the withdrawing Demanding Holder for purposes of Section*** 2.1.4*, unless such Demanding Holder reimburses New TriGemX for all Registration Expenses with respect to such Underwritten Offering (or, if there is more than one Demanding Holder, a pro rata portion of such Registration Expenses based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Demanding Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Offering); provided that, if the Sponsor, TCG Crossover, or a TriGemX Holder elects to continue an Underwritten Offering pursuant to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence, such Underwritten Offering shall instead count as an Underwritten Offering demanded by the Sponsor, TCG Crossover, or such TriGemX Holder, as applicable, for purposes of Section*** 2.1.4*. Following the receipt of any Withdrawal Notice, New TriGemX shall promptly forward such Withdrawal Notice to any other Holders that had elected to participate in such Underwritten Offering. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, New TriGemX shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with an Underwritten Offering prior to its withdrawal under this Section*** 2.1.6*, other than if a Demanding Holder elects to pay such Registration Expenses pursuant to the second sentence of this Section*** 2.1.6*.
2.2 Piggyback Registration.
2.2.1 Piggyback Rights. Subject to Section*** 2.4.3*, if any Holder proposes to conduct a registered offering of, or if New TriGemX proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Registration of, equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into equity securities, for the account of stockholders of New TriGemX (or by New TriGemX and by the stockholders of New TriGemX including, without limitation, an Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section*** 2.1*), other than a Registration Statement (or any registered offering with respect thereto) (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-4 (or similar form that relates to a transaction subject to Rule 145 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto), (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of New TriGemX, (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, (v) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to New TriGemX’s existing securityholders, (vi) for a rights offering, (vii) for an equity line of credit or an at-the-market offering of securities, (viii) a Block Trade or (ix) an Other Coordinated Offering, then New TriGemX shall give written notice of such proposed offering to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but not less than five (5) days before the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement or, in the case of an Underwritten Offering pursuant to a Shelf Registration, the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement used for marketing such offering, which notice shall (A) describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, in such offering, and (B) offer to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities the opportunity to include in such registered offering such number of Registrable Securities as such Holders may request in writing within seven (7) days after receipt of such written notice (such registered offering, a “Piggyback Registration”); provided, in the case of an “overnight” or “bought” offering, such requests must be made by the Holders within two (2) Business Days after delivery of any such notice by New TriGemX; provided further that if New TriGemX has been advised in writing by the managing Underwriter(s) that the inclusion of Registrable Securities for sale for the benefit of the Holders will have an adverse effect on the price, timing, or distribution of New TriGemX
8
Shares in an Underwritten Offering, then (1) if no Registrable Securities can be included in the Underwritten Offering in the opinion of the managing Underwriter(s), New TriGemX shall not be required to offer such opportunity to such Holders or (2) if any Registrable Securities can be included in the Underwritten Offering in the opinion of the managing Underwriter(s), then the amount of Registrable Securities to be offered for the accounts of Holders shall be determined based on the provisions of Section*** 2.2.2*. Subject to the foregoing proviso and to Section*** 2.2.2*, New TriGemX shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggyback Registration and, if applicable, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of such Piggyback Registration to permit the Registrable Securities requested by the Holders pursuant to this Section*** 2.2.1* to be included therein on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of New TriGemX included in such registered offering and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof.

(a) if the Registration or registered offering is undertaken for New TriGemX’s account, New TriGemX shall include in any such Registration or registered offering (A) first, the New TriGemX Shares or other equity securities that New TriGemX desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to Section*** 2.2.1*, pro rata, based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Offering and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Holders have requested to be included in such Underwritten Offering, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the New TriGemX Shares or other equity securities, if any, as to which Registration or a registered offering has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggyback registration rights of persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities;
(b) if the Registration or registered offering is pursuant to a demand by persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, then New TriGemX shall include in any such Registration or registered offering (A) first, the New TriGemX Shares or other equity securities, if any, of such requesting persons or entities, other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to Section*** 2.2.1*, pro rata, based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Offering and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Holders have requested to be included in such Underwritten Offering, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the New TriGemX Shares or other equity securities that New TriGemX desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the New TriGemX Shares or other equity securities, if any, as to which Registration or a registered offering has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggyback registration rights of persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and
9
(c) if the Registration or registered offering is an Underwritten Offering pursuant to a request by one or more Holders of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section*** 2.1* hereof, then New TriGemX shall include in any such Registration or registered offering securities in the priority set forth in Section*** 2.1.5*.
2.2.3 Piggyback Registration Withdrawal. Any Holder of Registrable Securities (other than a Demanding Holder, whose right to withdraw from an Underwritten Offering, and related obligations, shall be governed by Section*** 2.1.6*) shall have the right to withdraw from a Piggyback Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to New TriGemX and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of his, her or its intention to withdraw from such Piggyback Registration prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Piggyback Registration or, in the case of a Piggyback Registration pursuant to a Shelf Registration, the filing of the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement with respect to such Piggyback Registration used for marketing such transaction. New TriGemX (whether on its own good faith determination or as the result of a request for withdrawal by persons or entities pursuant to separate written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement filed with the Commission in connection with a Piggyback Registration (which, in no circumstance, shall include a Shelf) at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (other than Section*** 2.1.6*), New TriGemX shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the Piggyback Registration prior to its withdrawal under this Section*** 2.2.3*.
2.2.4 Unlimited Piggyback Registration Rights. For purposes of clarity, subject to Section*** 2.1.6*, any Piggyback Registration effected pursuant to Section*** 2.2* hereof shall not be counted as a demand for an Underwritten Offering under Section*** 2.1.4* hereof.

Each such participating Holder agrees to execute a customary lock-up agreement in favor of the Underwriters to such effect (in each case on substantially the same terms and conditions as all such Holders); provided, that such agreement shall not be materially more restrictive than any similar agreement entered into by the directors and executive officers of New TriGemX; provided, further, that such agreement shall not be required unless all Holders participating in such Underwritten Offering are required to enter into similar agreements; provided, further, that such agreement shall provide that any early release of any Holder, director or executive officer from the provisions of the terms of such agreement shall be on a pro rata basis among all Holders so bound.
2.4 Block Trades; Other Coordinated Offerings.
2.4.1 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article II, but subject to Section*** 3.4*, when an effective Shelf is on file with the Commission, following the expiration of the Lock-up Period (if applicable), if a Demanding Holder wishes to engage in (a) an underwritten registered offering not involving a “road show,” commonly known as a “block trade” (a “Block Trade”), or (b) an “at the market” or similar registered offering through a broker, sales agent or distribution agent, whether as agent or principal (an “Other Coordinated Offering”), in each case, (x) with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed $30,000,000 in the aggregate or (y) with respect to all remaining Registrable Securities held by the Demanding Holder, then such Demanding Holder shall notify New TriGemX of the Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering at least five (5) Business Days prior to the day such offering is to commence and New TriGemX shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering; provided that the Demanding Holders representing a majority of the Registrable Securities wishing to engage in the Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering shall use commercially reasonable efforts to work with New TriGemX and any Underwriters, brokers, sales agents or placement agents prior to making such request in order to facilitate preparation of the registration statement, prospectus and other offering documentation related to the Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering.
2.4.2 Prior to the filing of the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement used in connection with a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering, a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering shall have the right to submit a Withdrawal Notice to New TriGemX, the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) and any brokers, sales agents or placement agents (if any) of their intention to withdraw from such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, New TriGemX shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering prior to its withdrawal under this Section*** 2.4.2*.
10
2.4.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Section*** 2.2* shall not apply to a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering initiated by a Demanding Holder pursuant to this Agreement.
2.4.4 The Demanding Holder in a Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering shall have the right to select the Underwriters and any brokers, sales agents or placement agents (if any) for such Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering (in each case, which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks).
2.4.5 The Sponsor and TCG Crossover may demand no more than two (2) Block Trades or Other Coordinated Offerings pursuant to this Section*** 2.4* in any twelve (12) month period, and the TriGemX Holders (excluding any TriGemX Holders that are affiliated with TCG Crossover) may demand no more than six (6) Block Trades or Other Coordinated Offerings pursuant to this Section*** 2.4* in any twelve (12) month period. For the avoidance of doubt, any Block Trade or Other Coordinated Offering effected pursuant to this Section*** 2.4* shall not be counted as a demand for an Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section*** 2.1.4* hereof.
**ARTICLE III **
***NEW TRIGEMX PROCEDURES ***
3.1 General Procedures. If at any time New TriGemX is required to effect the Registration of Registrable Securities hereunder, New TriGemX shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect such Registration to permit the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended plan of distribution thereof, and pursuant thereto New TriGemX shall:
3.1.1 prepare and file with the Commission as soon as reasonably practicable a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective until all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement are sold in accordance with the intended plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement or have ceased to be Registrable Securities;
3.1.2 prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement, and such supplements to the Prospectus, as may be reasonably requested by any Holder that holds Registrable Securities registered on such Registration Statement or any Underwriter of Registrable Securities or as may be required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by New TriGemX or by the Securities Act or rules and regulations thereunder to keep the Registration Statement effective until all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement are sold in accordance with the intended plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus or have ceased to be Registrable Securities;

11
3.1.4 prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may request (or provide evidence satisfactory to such Holders that the Registrable Securities are exempt from such registration or qualification) and (ii) take such action as may be necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of New TriGemX and do any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that New TriGemX shall not be required to qualify generally to do business or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify or take any action to which it would be subject to general service of process or taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then otherwise so subject;
3.1.5 cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each national securities exchange on which similar securities issued by New TriGemX are then listed;
3.1.6 provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Securities no later than the effective date of such Registration Statement;
3.1.7 advise each seller of such Registrable Securities, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance of any stop order by the Commission suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose and promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal if such stop order should be issued;
3.1.8 notify the selling Holders at any time when a Prospectus relating to such Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes a Misstatement, and then to correct such Misstatement as set forth in Section*** 3.4*;
3.1.9 in the event of an Underwritten Offering, a Block Trade, an Other Coordinated Offering, or sale by a broker, placement agent or sales agent pursuant to such Registration, in each of the following cases to the extent customary for a transaction of its type, permit a representative of the Holders, the Underwriters or other financial institutions facilitating such Underwritten Offering, Block Trade, Other Coordinated Offering or other sale pursuant to such Registration, if any, and any attorney, consultant or accountant retained by such Holders or Underwriter to participate, at each such person’s or entity’s own expense, in the preparation of the Registration Statement, and cause New TriGemX’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such representative, Underwriter, financial institution, attorney, consultant or accountant in connection with the Registration; provided, however, that such representatives, Underwriters or financial institutions agree to confidentiality arrangements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to New TriGemX, prior to the release or disclosure of any such information;
3.1.10 obtain a “cold comfort” letter (including a bring-down letter dated as of the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration) from New TriGemX’s independent registered public accountants in the event of an Underwritten Offering or a Block Trade pursuant to such Registration (subject to such placement agent or sales agent providing such certification or representation reasonably requested by New TriGemX’s independent registered public accountants and New TriGemX’s counsel) in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by “cold comfort” letters for a transaction of its type as the managing Underwriter may reasonably request, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the participating Holders;
3.1.11 in the event of an Underwritten Offering or a Block Trade pursuant to such Registration, on the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration, to the extent customary for a transaction of its type, obtain an opinion and negative assurance letter, dated such date, of counsel representing New TriGemX for the purposes of such Registration, addressed to the participating Holders, the broker, placement agent or sales agent, if any, and the Underwriters, if any, covering such legal matters with respect to the Registration in respect of which such opinion is being given as the participating Holders, broker, placement agent, sales agent or Underwriter may reasonably request and as are customarily included in such opinions and negative assurance letters;
12
3.1.12 in the event of any Underwritten Offering or a Block Trade, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting or other purchase or sales agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing Underwriter of such offering or sale;
3.1.13 make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve (12) months beginning with the first day of New TriGemX’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the Registration Statement which satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any successor rule then in effect), which requirement will be deemed satisfied if New TriGemX timely files Forms 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K as may be required to be filed under the Exchange Act and otherwise complies with Rule 158 under the Securities Act;
3.1.14 with respect to an Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section*** 2.1.4*, use its commercially reasonable efforts to make available senior executives of New TriGemX to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested by the Underwriter in such Underwritten Offering; and
3.1.15 otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the participating Holders, consistent with the terms of this Agreement, in connection with such Registration.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, New TriGemX shall not be required to provide any documents or information to an Underwriter, broker, sales agent or placement agent if such Underwriter, broker, sales agent or placement agent has not then been named with respect to the applicable Underwritten Offering or other offering involving a registration as an Underwriter, broker, sales agent or placement agent, as applicable.
3.2 Registration Expenses. The Registration Expenses of all Registrations shall be borne by New TriGemX. It is acknowledged by the Holders that the Holders shall bear all incremental selling expenses relating to the sale of Registrable Securities, such as Underwriters’ commissions and discounts, brokerage fees, Underwriter marketing costs and, other than as set forth in the definition of “Registration Expenses,” all fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing the Holders.
3.3 Requirements for Participation in Registration Statement and Underwritten Offerings. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any Holder does not provide New TriGemX with its requested Holder Information, New TriGemX may exclude such Holder’s Registrable Securities from the applicable Registration Statement or Prospectus if New TriGemX determines, based on the advice of counsel, that it is necessary or advisable to include such information in the applicable Registration Statement or Prospectus and such Holder continues thereafter to withhold such information. In addition, no person or entity may participate in any Underwritten Offering or other offering for equity securities of New TriGemX pursuant to a Registration initiated by New TriGemX hereunder unless such person or entity (i) agrees to sell such person’s or entity’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting, sales, distribution or placement arrangements approved by New TriGemX and (ii) completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting or other agreements and other customary documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting, sales, distribution or placement arrangements; provided that such Holder shall only be subject to the restrictions set forth in any such lock-up agreements if the directors and officers of New TriGemX are subject to a lock-up obligation to the Underwriters managing the offering and the length of such lock-up for such Holder shall be no longer than the shortest lock-up of any such directors and officers; provided, further, that if New TriGemX or the Underwriters managing the offering waive or shorten the lock-up period for any of New TriGemX’s officers, directors or stockholders, then (i) all Holders subject to such lock-up shall receive notice of such waiver or modification no later than two (2) Business Days following such waiver or modification, and (ii) such lock-up will be similarly waived pro rata or shortened for each such Holder. For the avoidance of doubt, the exclusion of a Holder’s Registrable Securities as a result of this Section*** 3.3* shall not affect the registration of the other Registrable Securities to be included in such Registration.
13
3.4 Suspension of Sales; Restrictions on Registration Rights.
3.4.1 Upon receipt of written notice from New TriGemX that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until it has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood that New TriGemX hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as reasonably practicable after the time of such notice), or until it is advised in writing by New TriGemX that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed.
3.4.2 Subject to Section*** 3.4.4*, if the negotiation or consummation of a transaction by New TriGemX or its subsidiaries is pending or an event has occurred, which negotiation, consummation or event the New TriGemX Board reasonably believes, upon the advice of counsel, would require additional disclosure by New TriGemX in the applicable Registration Statement of material non-public information that New TriGemX has a bona fide business purpose for keeping confidential and the nondisclosure of which in the Registration Statement would be expected, in the reasonable determination of the New TriGemX Board, upon the advice of counsel, to cause the Registration Statement to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements (such circumstance, a “Suspension Event”), New TriGemX may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders (which notice shall not contain any material non-public information regarding New TriGemX and shall not be subject to any duty of confidentiality), delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement. In the event New TriGemX exercises its rights under this Section*** 3.4.2*, the Holders agree, immediately upon receipt of such notice, to discontinue offers and sales of Registrable Securities under the applicable Registration Statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144 or any other applicable exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act) until the applicable Holder receives copies of a supplemental or amended Prospectus correcting any Misstatement and notice that any applicable post-effective amendment has become effective or is otherwise notified by New TriGemX that such offers and sales may be resumed (which notice shall not contain any material non-public information regarding New TriGemX and shall not be subject to any duty of confidentiality).
3.4.3 Subject to Section*** 3.4.4*, (a) during the period starting with the date thirty (30) days prior to New TriGemX’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on a date ninety (90) days after the effective date of, a New TriGemX-initiated Registration and provided that New TriGemX continues to actively employ, in good faith, all commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the applicable Shelf Registration, or (b) if, pursuant to Section*** 2.1.4*, Holders have requested an Underwritten Offering and New TriGemX and the Holders are unable to obtain the commitment of Underwriters to firmly underwrite such offering, New TriGemX may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay any other registered offering pursuant to Section*** 2.1.4* or 2.4.
3.4.4 The right to delay or suspend any filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement pursuant to Section*** 3.4.2* or a registered offering pursuant to Section*** 3.4.3* shall not be exercised by New TriGemX, in the aggregate, on more than two (2) occasions or for more than sixty (60) consecutive calendar days or more than ninety (90) total calendar days, in each case during any twelve (12)-month period.
3.5 Reporting Obligations. As long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, New TriGemX, at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, covenants to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by New TriGemX after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to promptly furnish the Holders with true and complete copies of all such filings; provided that any documents publicly filed or furnished with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR shall be deemed to have been furnished or delivered to the Holders pursuant to this Section*** 3.5*. New TriGemX further covenants that it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell New TriGemX Shares held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule then in effect). Upon the request of any Holder, New TriGemX shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.
3.6 Restrictive Legend Removal.
3.6.1 At any time and from time to time in connection with a bona fide sale of Registrable Securities effected in compliance with the requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act or through any broker-dealer sale transactions described in the plan of distribution set forth within any prospectus and pursuant to the Registration Statement of which such prospectus forms a part, New TriGemX shall, subject to the receipt of customary documentation required from the holder of the applicable Registrable
14
Securities and broker in connection therewith and compliance with applicable laws, (i) promptly instruct its transfer agent to remove any restrictive legends applicable to the Registrable Securities being sold and (ii) cause its legal counsel to deliver the necessary legal opinions, if any, to the transfer agent in connection with the instruction under subclause (i). New TriGemX shall be responsible for the fees of its transfer agent, its legal counsel (including for purposes of giving the opinion referenced herein) and all fees of The Depository Trust Company associated with such issuance, and the Holder shall be responsible for its fees or costs associated with such removal of such restrictive legends (including its legal fees or costs of its legal counsel).
3.6.2 While a Registration Statement is effective, New TriGemX shall cause its counsel, or counsel acceptable to the transfer agent, to issue to the transfer agent a “blanket” legal opinion to allow the legend on the Registrable Securities to be removed upon a bona fide sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to the plan of distribution set forth within any Prospectus and pursuant to such effective Registration Statement in accordance with this Section 3.6. Without limiting the foregoing, from and after the date on which such Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission, New TriGemX shall, within two (2) Business Days following receipt of a written request from a Holder accompanied by customary representations and other documentation from such Holder reasonably acceptable to New TriGemX and its transfer agent, instruct its transfer agent to remove all restrictive legends from the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement. Upon request, New TriGemX shall provide the applicable Holder with contact information for the person responsible for New TriGemX’s account at the transfer agent to facilitate transfers made pursuant to this Section 3.6. New TriGemX shall be responsible for the fees of its transfer agent and its legal counsel (including for purposes of giving the opinion referenced herein) associated with such issuance, and the applicable Holder shall be responsible for its own fees or costs associated therewith (including its legal fees or costs of its legal counsel).
3.6.3 With a view to making available to each Holder of Registrable Securities the benefits of Rule 144 that permit the Holder to sell securities of New TriGemX to the public without registration, New TriGemX agrees, for so long as any Holder holds Registrable Securities, to:
(a) use commercially reasonable efforts to make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144; and
(b) use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of New TriGemX under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act including such reports and other documents as may be required pursuant to the applicable provisions of Rule 144, for so long as New TriGemX remains subject to such requirements.
**ARTICLE IV **
***INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION ***
4.1 Indemnification.
4.1.1 New TriGemX agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its directors, trustees, officers, partners, members, managers, stockholders, affiliates, employees, advisers and agents, each person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and each affiliate of such Holder (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act), against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented outside attorneys’ fees and expenses) that arise out of, are caused by, based upon or relate to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in or incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of a Prospectus, in light of the circumstances in which they were made), or any violation or alleged violation by New TriGemX of the Securities Act, Exchange Act, or any state securities laws or rule or regulation thereunder, except insofar as and only to the extent that such untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission, or alleged omission are caused by or contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing to New TriGemX by such Holder expressly for use therein.
4.1.2 In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish (or cause to be furnished) to New TriGemX in writing such information and affidavits as New TriGemX reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus (the “Holder Information”) and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify New TriGemX, its directors, officers and agents and each person or entity who controls New TriGemX (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented outside attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained or incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of a Prospectus, in light of the circumstances in which they were made), but only to the extent that such untrue statement is contained in (or not contained in, in the case of an omission) any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities, and the liability of each such Holder of Registrable Securities shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each person or entity who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of New TriGemX.
15
4.1.3 Any person or entity entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s or entity’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (plus one local counsel if necessary in the reasonable judgment of the indemnified party) for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement includes a statement or admission of fault and culpability on the part of such indemnified party or which settlement 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.
4.1.4 The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person or entity of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities. New TriGemX and each Holder of Registrable Securities participating in an offering also agree to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution to such party in the event New TriGemX’s or such Holder’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.
4.1.5 If the indemnification provided under Section 4.1 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and documented out-of-pocket expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and documented out-of-pocket expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by (or not made by, in the case of an omission), or relates to information supplied by (or not supplied by in the case of an omission), such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided, however, that the liability of any Holder under this Section*** 4.1.5* shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section*** 4.1.5* 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 this Section*** 4.1.5*. No person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section*** 4.1.5* from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

5.2.4 This Agreement shall not confer any rights or benefits on any persons or entities that are not parties hereto, other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement.
5.2.5 No assignment by any party hereto of such party’s rights, duties and obligations hereunder shall be binding upon or obligate New TriGemX unless and until New TriGemX shall have received (i) written notice of such assignment as provided in Section 5.1 hereof and (ii) the written agreement of the assignee, in a form reasonably satisfactory to New TriGemX, to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement (which may be accomplished by an addendum or certificate of joinder to this Agreement, including the joinder in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto). Any transfer or assignment made other than as provided in this Section 5.2 shall be null and void.
5.3 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts (including by facsimile or electronic mail or in .pdf) and by different parties in separate counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document. All counterparts so executed and delivered shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same agreement.
5.4 Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement, and any claim or cause of action hereunder based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement (whether based on law, in equity, in contract, in tort or any other theory) or the negotiation, execution, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of laws that would otherwise require the application of the law of any other state. The parties agree that all disputes, legal actions, suits and proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement must be brought exclusively in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, to the extent such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware), or, if it has or can acquire jurisdiction, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (collectively the “Designated Courts”). Each party hereby consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Designated Courts. No legal action, suit or proceeding with respect to this Agreement may be brought in any other forum. Each party hereby irrevocably waives all claims of immunity from jurisdiction, and any objection which such party may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding in any Designated Court, including any right to object on the basis that any dispute, action, suit or proceeding brought in the Designated Courts has been brought in an improper or inconvenient forum or venue. Each of the parties also agrees that delivery of any process, summons, notice or document to a party hereof in compliance with Section 5.1 of this Agreement shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in a Designated Court with respect to any matters to which the parties have submitted to jurisdiction as set forth above.
17
5.5 TRIAL BY JURY. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR ANY AFFILIATE OF ANY OTHER SUCH PARTY, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS OR OTHERWISE. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT.
5.6 Amendments and Modifications. Upon the written consent of (a) New TriGemX and (b) the Holders of a majority of the total Registrable Securities, compliance with any of the provisions, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement may be waived, or any of such provisions, covenants or conditions may be amended or modified; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment hereto or waiver hereof shall also require the written consent of (i) TCG Crossover so long as TCG Crossover and its affiliates hold, in the aggregate, Registrable Securities representing at least five percent (5%) of the outstanding New TriGemX Shares and (ii) a TriGemX Holder, for so long as such TriGemX Holder and its affiliates hold, in the aggregate, Registrable Securities representing at least five percent (5%) of the outstanding New TriGemX Shares; and provided, further, that any amendment hereto or waiver hereof that adversely affects one Holder, solely in its capacity as a holder of the shares of capital stock of New TriGemX, in a manner that is materially different from the other Holders (in such capacity) shall require the consent of the Holder so affected. No course of dealing between any Holder or New TriGemX and any other party hereto or any failure or delay on the part of a Holder or New TriGemX in exercising any rights or remedies under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any Holder or New TriGemX. No single or partial exercise of any rights or remedies under this Agreement by a party shall operate as a waiver or preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder by such party.
5.7 Other Registration Rights. Other than as provided in the (i) Private Placement Shares Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 4, 2026, between New TriGemX and the Sponsor and (ii) any subscription agreement entered into by New TriGemX and the investors party thereto in connection with a PIPE Investment, New TriGemX represents and warrants that no person or entity, other than a Holder of Registrable Securities, has any right to require New TriGemX to register any securities of New TriGemX for sale or to include such securities of New TriGemX in any Registration Statement filed by New TriGemX for the sale of securities for its own account or for the account of any other person or entity. New TriGemX hereby agrees and covenants that it will not grant rights to register any New TriGemX Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for New TriGemX Shares) pursuant to the Securities Act that are more favorable, pari passu or senior to those granted to the Holders hereunder without (a) the prior written consent of (i) TCG Crossover, for so long as TCG Crossover and its affiliates hold, in the aggregate, Registrable Securities representing at least five percent (5%) of the outstanding New TriGemX Shares and (ii) a TriGemX Holder, for so long as such TriGemX Holder and its affiliates hold, in the aggregate, Registrable Securities representing at least five percent (5%) of the outstanding New TriGemX Shares or (b) granting economically and legally equivalent rights to the Holders hereunder such that the Holders shall receive the benefit of such more favorable or senior terms and/or conditions. Further, New TriGemX represents and warrants that this Agreement supersedes any other registration rights agreement or agreement with similar terms and conditions and in the event of a conflict between any such agreement or agreements and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.
5.8 Term. This Agreement shall terminate on the earlier of (a) the fifth (5th) anniversary of the date of this Agreement and (b) with respect to any Holder, on the date that such Holder no longer holds any Registrable Securities. The provisions of Section*** 3.5* and Article IV shall survive any termination.
5.9 Holder Information. Each Holder agrees, if requested in writing, to represent to New TriGemX the total number of Registrable Securities held by such Holder in order for New TriGemX to make determinations hereunder.
18
5.10 Severability. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. Accordingly, if any particular provision of this Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable for any reason, such provision, as to such jurisdiction, shall be ineffective, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such provision could be more narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in such jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be so narrowly drawn, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
5.11 Entire Agreement; Restatement. This Agreement constitutes the full and entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to such subject matter. Upon the Closing, the Original RRA shall no longer be of any force or effect.
5.12 Adjustments. If, and as often as, there are any changes in the Registrable Securities by way of stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification, or through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or sale, or by any other means, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the provisions of this Agreement, as may be required, so that the rights, privileges, duties and obligations hereunder shall continue with respect to the Registrable Securities as so changed.
