Collin Texas Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Rights Agreement is a legal document executed between Visible Genetics, Inc. and the purchasers of common shares of the company. This amendment specifically relates to the registration rights granted to the purchasers of the company's common shares based in Collin County, Texas. The purpose of this amendment is to modify and further clarify the registration rights previously granted to the purchasers according to the initial Registration Rights Agreement. It aims to provide additional protections and advantages to the purchasers related to the registration and offering of the common shares. Key provisions of Collin Texas Amendment No. 2 may include: 1. Expanded Registration Period: This amendment may extend the previously agreed-upon registration period, allowing the purchasers a longer timeframe for the registration and public offering of their common shares. 2.

Demand Registration: If included, this amendment may provide purchasers with the ability to demand that Visible Genetics, Inc. register their common shares for sale in a public offering. This can be crucial for purchasers who seek liquidity or want to offload their shares. 4.

It could outline who will bear the costs, such as filing fees, legal fees, and marketing expenses associated with the public offering. 5.
