right on one or more occasions (subject to certain exceptions, up to a maximum
of seven times) to cause the Company, on or after the Closing Date and to and
including the date that is the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date, to
register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the sale by Capricorn II
of the shares of Common Stock purchased by Capricorn II in the Acquisition.
