(ii) Except as disclosed on Section 4(e)(ii) of the Atlantic Capital Disclosure Schedule, neither Atlantic Capital nor any of its

manner relates to its capital adequacy, its ability to pay dividends, its credit, risk management or compliance policies, its internal controls, its management or its business, other than those of general application that apply to similarly situated
bank holding companies or their Subsidiaries (each, a “Atlantic Capital Regulatory Agreement”), nor has Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries been advised since January 1, 2013 by any Atlantic Capital Regulatory Agency or
other Governmental Entity that it is considering issuing, initiating, ordering or requesting any such Atlantic Capital Regulatory Agreement. 

(iii) During the period from the date of the declaration of effectiveness by the SEC of the Form S-4 to the Effective Time (the
“Atlantic Capital Reporting Period”), Atlantic Capital will have filed with or furnished to the SEC all registration statements, prospectuses, reports, schedules, information statements and proxy statements of Atlantic Capital
required to be filed with or furnished to the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) (including the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder)
(collectively, the “Atlantic Capital SEC Reports”). No such Atlantic Capital SEC Report, at the time filed or furnished (and, in the case of registration statements and proxy statements, on the dates of effectiveness and the dates
of the relevant meetings, respectively), will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or will omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made


  
 - 12 -

Neither Atlantic Capital nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to, or has any commitment to become a party to, any joint venture, partnership agreement or any similar contract (including any contract relating to any transaction, arrangement or
relationship between or among Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any unconsolidated affiliate, including any structured finance, special purpose or limited purpose entity or Person, on the other hand (such as any
arrangement described in Section 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act)) where the purpose or effect of such arrangement is to avoid disclosure of any material transaction involving Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries in
Atlantic Capital’s consolidated financial statements. 
 (vi) As of December 31, 2014, Atlantic Capital Bank met or exceeded the
standards necessary to be considered “well capitalized” under the FDIC’s regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. 

f. Financial Statements.  

(i) Since January 1, 2011, the financial statements of Atlantic Capital and its Subsidiaries have (A) been prepared from, and are
in accordance with, the books and records of Atlantic Capital and its Subsidiaries; (B) fairly present in all material respects the consolidated results of operations, cash flows, changes in shareholders’ equity and consolidated financial

(C) complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and with the published rules and regulations of the FDIC; and (D) have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied during the periods
involved, except, in each case, as indicated in such statements or in the notes thereto. The books and records of Atlantic Capital and its Subsidiaries have been, and are being, maintained in all material respects in accordance with GAAP and any
other applicable legal and accounting requirements and reflect only actual transactions. Ernst & Young LLP has served as independent registered public accountant for Atlantic Capital or its bank Subsidiary, as applicable, since 2007; such
firm has not resigned or been dismissed as independent public accountants of Atlantic Capital or its bank Subsidiary, as applicable, as a result of or in connection with any disagreements with Atlantic Capital or its bank Subsidiary, as applicable,
on a matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure. 
 (ii) Neither Atlantic
Capital nor any of its Subsidiaries has any material liability of any nature whatsoever (whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise 

  
 - 13 - 








 
and whether due or to become due) required under GAAP to be set forth on a balance sheet or in the notes thereto, except for those liabilities that are reflected or reserved against on the
consolidated balance sheet of Atlantic Capital for the period ended December 31, 2013 (including any notes thereto) and for liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice since December 31, 2013 or in
connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. 
 (iii) Since December 31, 2013, (i) through the date
hereof, neither Atlantic Capital nor any of its Subsidiaries nor, to the knowledge of the officers of Atlantic Capital, any director, officer, employee, auditor, accountant or representative of Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries has
received or otherwise had or obtained knowledge of any complaint, allegation, assertion or claim, whether written or oral, regarding the accounting or auditing practices, procedures, methodologies or methods of Atlantic Capital or any of its
Subsidiaries or their respective internal accounting controls, including any complaint, allegation, assertion or claim that Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in questionable accounting or auditing practices, and (ii) no
attorney or auditor representing Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries, whether or not employed by Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries, has reported evidence of a violation of securities laws, breach of fiduciary duty or similar
violation by Atlantic Capital or any of its officers, directors, employees or agents to the Board of Directors of Atlantic Capital or any committee thereof or to any director or officer of Atlantic Capital. 

(iv) The information contained in the budget or the pro forma financial information (including, without limitation, the most recent
projections and forecasts contained therein) set forth in Section 4(f)(iv) of the Atlantic Capital Disclosure Schedule that was provided by Atlantic Capital to the Investor, was based upon reasonable assumptions, and, to Atlantic Capital’s
Knowledge, such assumptions and such budget or pro forma financial information remain reasonable as of the date hereof and at the Closing Date. 

(v) Atlantic Capital and each of its Subsidiaries has established and maintains a system of internal controls (as provided for in
Section 36 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act) that is sufficient to provide reasonable assurance (i) regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
GAAP and financial statements for regulatory reporting purposes, (ii) that receipts and expenditures of Atlantic Capital and its Subsidiaries are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the Atlantic Capital Board,
and (iii) regarding prevention or timely detection of the unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Atlantic Capital’s and its Subsidiaries’ assets that could have a material effect on Atlantic Capital’s financial
statements. 
 (vi) Atlantic Capital has disclosed, based on its most recent evaluation of its disclosure controls and procedures prior to
the date of this Agreement, to Atlantic Capital’s auditors and the audit committee of the board of directors of Atlantic Capital and on Section 4(f)(vi) of the Atlantic Capital Disclosure Schedule (A) any significant
deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls over financial reporting that could adversely affect in any material respect Atlantic Capital’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial
information and (B) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves 

  
 - 14 - 








 
management or other employees who have a significant role in Atlantic Capital’s internal controls over financial reporting. For purposes of this Agreement, the terms “significant
deficiency” and “material weakness” shall have the meaning assigned to them in Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard 2, as in effect on the date of this Agreement. 

(vii) The allowance for loan and lease losses reflected in the audited consolidated financial statements of Atlantic Capital for the year
ending December 31, 2013 was, as of date thereof, calculated in all material respects in accordance with the requirements of GAAP as applied to banking institutions, and in the reasonable opinion of management, is adequate in all material
respects to provide for reasonably anticipated losses inherent in the Atlantic Capital’s and its Subsidiaries’ loan and lease portfolios; provided, however, that no representation or warranty is made in this Section 4(f)(vii) as to
the sufficiency of collateral securing or the collectability of such loans and leases. Neither Atlantic Capital nor any of its Subsidiaries has been advised by any Governmental Entity that its loan and lease losses reserves or methodology for
determining such reserves are inadequate. 
 (viii) During the Atlantic Capital Reporting Period, each of Atlantic Capital’s principal
executive officer and principal financial officer (or each former principal executive officer and each former principal financial officer, as applicable) will make all certifications required by Rule 15d-14 under the Exchange Act and Sections 302
and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act with respect to the Atlantic Capital SEC Reports, and the statements contained in such certifications will be true and accurate in all material respects. For purposes of this Agreement, “principal executive
officer” and “principal financial officer” shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. During the Atlantic Capital Reporting Period, Atlantic Capital will be in compliance with all applicable provisions of
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, except for any non-compliance that would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. 

g. Broker’s Fees. Neither Atlantic Capital nor any Atlantic Capital Subsidiary nor any of their respective officers or directors
has employed any broker or finder or incurred any liability for any broker’s fees, commissions or finder’s fees in connection with the Merger or related transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and this Agreement, other than as
set forth on Section 4(g) of the Atlantic Capital Disclosure Schedule and pursuant to letter agreements, true, complete and correct copies of which have been previously delivered to the Investor. Any fees due any such broker or finder
will be paid solely by Atlantic Capital. Atlantic Capital shall indemnify, pay, and hold the Investor harmless against any liability, loss or expense (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and out-of-pocket expenses) arising in
connection with any such right, interest or claim. 
 h. Absence of Certain Changes or Events. Since December 31, 2013, no
event or events have occurred that have had or are reasonably likely to have, either individually or in the aggregate with all other events, a Material Adverse Effect on Atlantic Capital. As used in this Agreement, the term “Material Adverse
Effect” means, with respect to Atlantic Capital or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, any fact, event, change, condition, development, circumstance or effect that, individually or in the aggregate, (A) is or would be
reasonably likely 

  
 - 15 -

in the southeastern United States, (IV) the failure by Atlantic Capital or FSGI to meet projections, forecasts, estimates or budgets (other than those set forth in Section 4(f)(iv) of the Atlantic Capital Disclosure Schedule),
provided, however, that the exception in this clause (IV) shall not prevent or otherwise affect a determination that any fact, event, change, condition, development, circumstance, or effect underlying such a failure has
resulted in, or contributed to, a Material Adverse Effect, (V) the direct effects of negotiating, entering into and compliance with this Agreement on the operating performance of Atlantic Capital or FSGI and its Subsidiaries, including the
effects on the employees and customers of FSGBank or Atlantic Capital Bank, as applicable, resulting from the public announcement of the Merger), (VI) changes, positive or negative, in the adjusted Federal long-term rate under section 382(f) of the
Code, whether as a result of changes in the Federal long-term rate determined under section 1274(d) of the Code or as a result of changes to the methodology for calculating such rate, or (VII) actions and omissions of Atlantic Capital or its
Subsidiaries taken with the prior written consent of the Investor), (B) materially impairs or would be reasonably likely to materially impair the ability of Atlantic Capital to timely consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement

any nature against Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries or any current or former director of Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation any lender liability claims, or otherwise challenging the validity or
propriety of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Merger Agreement, but excluding, in the case of current or former directors of Atlantic Capital proceedings not directly related to any such individual’s fiduciary duty to
Atlantic Capital. None of the proceedings, claims, actions or governmental or regulatory investigations set forth on Section 4(i)(i) of the Atlantic Capital Disclosure Schedule would reasonably be expected to have, either individually or
in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on Atlantic Capital. 
 (ii) There is no Injunction, judgment or regulatory restriction (other
than those of general application that apply to similarly situated bank holding companies or their Subsidiaries) imposed upon Atlantic Capital, any of its Subsidiaries or the assets of Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries. 

j. Taxes and Tax Returns.

Subsidiaries. Neither Atlantic Capital nor any of its Subsidiaries has participated in a “reportable transaction” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4(b)(1). Neither Atlantic Capital nor any of its Subsidiaries

Liability Act of 1980, as amended, pending or, to Atlantic Capital’s Knowledge, threatened against Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries. To the Knowledge of Atlantic Capital, there is no reasonable basis for, or circumstances that are

its Subsidiaries. Neither Atlantic Capital nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to any agreement, order, judgment, decree, letter or memorandum by or with any Governmental Entity or third party imposing any liability or obligation with respect to
any of the foregoing. Each of Atlantic Capital and its Subsidiaries, and, to Atlantic Capital’s Knowledge (except as set forth in written third-party environmental reports included in the relevant loan documentation regarding real property
securing a Loan made in the ordinary course of business to a third party that is not an affiliate of Atlantic Capital), any property in which Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries holds a security interest, is in material compliance with all
local, state or federal environmental, health or safety Laws, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended. Neither Atlantic Capital nor any of its Subsidiaries has assumed by contract any

owner or, in the case of participated loans, a co-owner with the other participant(s), of all individually identifiable personal information (“IIPI”) relating to customers, former customers and


  
 - 30 - 








 
prospective customers. For purposes of this Section 4(v), “IIPI” shall include any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. Neither Atlantic
Capital nor the Atlantic Capital Subsidiaries have any reason to believe that any facts or circumstances exist, which would cause the collection and use of such IIPI by Atlantic Capital to not comply with all applicable privacy policies, the Fair
Credit Reporting Act of 1970, as amended (the “Fair Credit Reporting Act”), the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (the “Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act”) and all other applicable state, federal and foreign privacy laws, and any

confidentiality of customer records and information; (ii) protect against any anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of such records; and (iii) protect against unauthorized access to or use of such records or
information, which could result in substantial harm or inconvenience to any customer. 
 w. Bank Secrecy Act; Patriot Act; Money
Laundering. Neither Atlantic Capital nor any Atlantic Capital Subsidiary has any reason to believe that any facts or circumstances exist, which would cause Atlantic Capital or the Atlantic Capital Subsidiaries to be deemed to be operating in
violation of the Bank Secrecy Act of 1970, as amended and its implementing regulations (31 C.F.R. Part 103) (the “Bank Secrecy Act”), the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and
Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Patriot Act”), any order issued with respect to anti-money laundering by the United States Department of the Treasury’s Office of
Foreign Assets Control, or any other applicable anti-money laundering law. Furthermore, the Board of Directors of Atlantic Capital and its Subsidiaries has adopted and implemented an anti-money laundering program that contains adequate and
appropriate customer identification verification procedures, that has not been deemed ineffective by any Governmental Authority and that meets the requirements of Sections 352 and 326 of the Patriot Act.

applicable provisions of the Community Reinvestment Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder. As of the date hereof, Atlantic Capital and Atlantic Capital Subsidiary’s most recent examination rating under the CRA was
“satisfactory” or better. Atlantic Capital knows of no fact or circumstance or set of facts or circumstances which would be reasonably likely to cause Atlantic Capital or any Atlantic Capital Subsidiary to receive any notice of
non-compliance with such provisions of the CRA or cause the CRA rating of Atlantic Capital or any Atlantic Capital Subsidiary to decrease below the “satisfactory” level. 

y. State Takeover Laws. The Atlantic Capital Board has rendered inapplicable to this Agreement and the Merger Agreement and the

from qualifying as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and (b) knows of no reason why all regulatory approvals from any Governmental Entity required for the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement should not be obtained on a timely basis. 
 aa. Transactions with Affiliates. All “covered
transactions” between Atlantic Capital and an “affiliate,” within the meaning of Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act and regulations promulgated thereunder, have been in compliance with such provisions. None of the
officers, directors, employees or Affiliates of Atlantic Capital or any Subsidiary of Atlantic Capital is presently a party to any contract, arrangement or transaction with Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries or to a presently contemplated
contract, arrangement or transaction (other than for services as employees, officers and directors), in any such case that would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act if
Atlantic Capital were required to file periodic reports pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. Depository relationships between Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any director or senior officer of
Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, are on customary market terms.

Continuity. Atlantic Capital has developed and implemented a contingency planning program to evaluate the impact of significant events that may adversely affect Atlantic Capital’s customers, assets, or employees. To the best of Atlantic

other Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the

 ff. Change in Control. Except as disclosed on Section 4(ff) of the Atlantic
Capital Disclosure Schedule, the issuance of the Investor Shares (and Backstop Securities, if applicable) to the Investor pursuant to this Agreement and the consummation of the Merger will not be deemed a “change of control” of Atlantic
Capital or any of its Subsidiaries, or trigger any rights under any “change of control” provision, under any agreement or arrangement to which Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, including, without limitation, any
employment, “change in control,” severance or other compensatory agreements and any benefit plan, which results in payments (or obligations in respect thereof) by Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries to the counterparty, or the
acceleration of vesting of benefits. 
 gg. Acknowledgment Regarding Investor’s Purchase. To Atlantic Capital’s Knowledge,
the Investor is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to the Agreement and the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The Investor is not acting as a financial advisor or
fiduciary of Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries (or in any similar capacity) with respect to this Agreement or the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and any advice given by the Investor or any of its
representatives or agents in connection with the Agreement and the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby is merely incidental to the Investor’s purchase of the Investor Shares (and Backstop Securities, if
applicable).
 hh. Most Favored Nation. Except as disclosed on Section 4(hh) of the Atlantic Capital Disclosure Schedule,
no other agreement or document executed by Atlantic Capital in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Merger Agreement contain rights or privileges, or otherwise benefits to the other party thereto in a manner, more
favorable, in the aggregate, in any material respect to the other party thereto than the rights, privileges and benefits established in favor of the Investor by the Transaction Documents. Section 4(hh) of the Atlantic Capital Disclosure
Schedule lists all agreements and documents (including any side letters, if any) entered into by Atlantic Capital or its Subsidiaries with shareholders of Atlantic Capital in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the
Merger Agreement. 
 ii. Disclosure. The Investor does not make any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in Section 5 hereof. 
 jj. Shell Company Status. Atlantic Capital
is not, and has never been, an issuer identified in Rule 144(i)(1) promulgated under the Securities Act. 
 kk. Opinion of Financial
Advisor. Before the execution of this Agreement, the Atlantic Capital Board has received an opinion from Macquarie Capital (USA), Inc. to the effect that, as of the date thereof and based upon and subject to the matters set forth therein, the
consideration to be paid by Atlantic Capital in the Merger pursuant to the Merger Agreement is fair, from a financial point of view, to Atlantic Capital. Such opinion has not been amended or rescinded as of the date of this Agreement. 

  
 - 33 - 








 5. Representations and Warranties of the Investor. The Investor hereby represents and
warrants as of the date hereof (except for the representations and warranties that speak as of a specific date, which are made as of such date), to Atlantic Capital that: 

a. Authority. The Investor has full right, power, authority and capacity to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Investor. 
 b. No Conflicts. The
execution, delivery and performance by the Investor of the Transaction Documents and the consummation by the Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including, without limitation, the purchase of the Investor Shares and Backstop
Securities, if applicable) do not and will not (i) conflict with or violate any provisions of the Investor’s organizational documents, (ii) conflict with, violate or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time
or both would result in a default) under any agreement, indenture or other instrument to which the Investor is a party, or (iii) conflict with or result in a violation of any law to which the Investor is subject, except in the case of clauses
(ii) and (iii) as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to materially impair the Investor’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. 

c. Shares Not Registered. The Investor acknowledges that the Investor Shares (and Backstop Securities, if applicable) have not been
registered under the Securities Act, or under any state securities laws, and is aware that the sale of the Investor Shares (and Backstop Securities, if applicable) to it is being made in reliance on a private placement exemption from registration
under the Securities Act. The Investor (i) is acquiring the Investor Shares (and Backstop Securities, if applicable) for its own account pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act for investment only and with no present
intention of distributing any of the Investor Shares (and Backstop Securities, if applicable) to any person (the foregoing representation and warranty does not limit the Investor’s right to sell such Investor Shares (and Backstop Securities, if
applicable) pursuant to an effective registration statement or otherwise in compliance with the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws); (ii) will not sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Investor Shares (and Backstop
Securities, if applicable) except in compliance with the registration requirements or exemption provisions of the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws; (iii) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters
as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its prospective investment in the Shares; (iv) is an “accredited investor” (as that term is defined by Rule 501 under the Securities Act); and (v) is not purchasing the
Investor Shares (and Backstop Securities, if applicable) as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding the Investor Shares (and Backstop Securities, if applicable) published in any newspaper, magazine or similar
media or broadcast over television or radio or presented at any seminar or any other general advertisement. The Investor understands that Atlantic Capital will rely upon the accuracy of the foregoing representations in connection with the sale of
the Investor Shares (and Backstop Securities, if applicable) to the Investor. 
 d. Access to Information. The Investor acknowledges
that it has been afforded the opportunity to ask such questions as it has deemed necessary of, and to receive 

  
 - 34 - 








 
answers from, representatives of Atlantic Capital and its Subsidiaries concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Investor Shares (and Backstop Securities, if applicable) and
Atlantic Capital’s and its Subsidiaries’ respective financial condition, results of operations, business, properties and management. The representations of the Investor contained in this Section 5.d shall not affect the ability of the
Investor to rely on the representations and warranties made by Atlantic Capital pursuant to Section 4 or the Investor’s rights to indemnification pursuant to Section 7. 

e. Acknowledgment Regarding Investor’s Purchase of Shares. The Investor is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length
purchaser with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and the Investor is not acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of Atlantic Capital (or in any similar capacity) with respect to the
Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The Investor is not acting in concert or as part of a group with any other person in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Except
for the Transaction Documents, the Investor is not party to any agreement, arrangement or understanding for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of, in each case, any shares of Atlantic Capital Common Stock or other securities of
Atlantic Capital or any option, warrant or other right to acquire any of the foregoing. 
 6. Other Agreements of the Parties. 

a. Conduct of Business Before the Closing Date. Except as expressly contemplated by or permitted by this Agreement, the Merger
Agreement, or with the prior written consent of the Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed during the period from the date of this Agreement to the Closing Date, Atlantic Capital shall, and shall cause
each of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, to: 
 (i) conduct its business in the ordinary course in all material respects; 

(ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain and preserve intact its business organization and its business relationships and retain
the services of its key officers and key employees; and 
 (iii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all
actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and assist and cooperate with the Investor in doing all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective in the most expeditious manner practicable, the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. 
 b. Atlantic Capital Forbearances. During the period from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time, except as
expressly contemplated or permitted by the Merger Agreement (including the exceptions to the covenants applicable to Atlantic Capital set forth in Atlantic Capital’s disclosure schedules to the Merger Agreement), Atlantic Capital shall comply
with the provisions of Section 5.2 of the Merger Agreement. 
 c. Publicity; Disclosure. Atlantic Capital and the Investor shall
consult with each other in issuing any other press releases with respect to the transactions contemplated 

  
 - 35 - 








 
hereby or by the Merger Agreement, and neither Atlantic Capital nor the Investor shall issue any such press release nor otherwise make any such public statement without the prior consent of
Atlantic Capital, with respect to any press release of the Investor, or without the prior consent of each Investor, with respect to any press release of Atlantic Capital, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, delayed or conditioned,
except if such disclosure is required by Law, in which case the disclosing party shall promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement or communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Atlantic Capital shall not publicly
disclose the name of any Investor, or include the name of the Investor in any filing with any Governmental Entity or the NASDAQ, without the prior written consent of the Investor, except to the extent such disclosure is required by law or the NASDAQ
rules and regulations, in which case Atlantic Capital shall provide the Investor with prior notice of such disclosure. Atlantic Capital shall provide the Investor and its counsel with draft copies of any filings or disclosures containing references
to the Investor or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and shall afford the Investor and its representatives reasonable opportunity to comment thereon. 

d. Reservation of Common Stock. As of the date hereof, Atlantic Capital has reserved, and Atlantic Capital shall continue to reserve
and keep available at all times, free of preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Atlantic Capital Common Stock for the purpose of enabling Atlantic Capital to issue the Investor Shares and, if applicable, the Backstop Securities pursuant
to this Agreement. 
 e. Most Favored Nation; Backstop Exclusivity. Atlantic Capital agrees that it and its Subsidiaries will not
enter into any agreement or understanding with any other investor between the date hereof and the earlier of the Closing and the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms in respect of the purchase of shares of capital stock of
Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries that contains rights or privileges, or otherwise benefits the other investor party thereto in a manner, more favorable, in the aggregate, in any respect to such other investor than the rights, privileges
and benefits established in favor of the Investor by the Transaction Documents; provided that the term “investor” as used in this Section 6(e) shall not be construed to include any officer, director or other employee of Atlantic
Capital or its Subsidiaries in such capacity for service in such capacity regardless of whether such individual is also a stockholder of Atlantic Capital. Atlantic Capital further agrees that it and its Subsidiaries will not, and will use its best
efforts to ensure that its directors, managers, officers, shareholders, and representatives do not, directly or indirectly, between the date hereof and the earlier of the Closing and the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms,
solicit any offer from, initiate or engage in any discussions or negotiations with, enter into any agreement, letter of intent or similar contract with or provide any information to, any corporation, partnership, person or other entity or group
concerning any possible proposal regarding a sale or issuance of any common equity (or common-equivalent equity) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or their respective successors), other than pursuant to the Transaction Documents, the
Merger Agreement, and the Patriot Securities Purchase Agreement (as defined in the Merger Agreement). 
 f. Use of Funds. Atlantic
Capital will use the net proceeds from the sale of Investor Shares and, if applicable, the Backstop Securities pursuant to this Agreement to fund the aggregate Per Share Cash Consideration to be issued in the Merger. 

  
 - 36 - 








 g. Registration Rights. Atlantic Capital shall provide for the registration for resale
under the Securities Act of the Investor’s Registrable Securities in accordance with the terms set forth on Schedule A hereto. 

h. Legend. 
 (i) The
Investor acknowledges that the certificate (or book-entry recordation) or other instruments representing the Investor Shares and, if applicable, the Backstop Securities (including shares underlying the Backstop Warrant) subject to this Agreement
will bear a legend (or restrictive code) substantially to the following effect: 
 “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS INSTRUMENT HAVE
NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT WHILE A REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATING THERETO IS IN EFFECT UNDER SUCH ACT AND
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT OR SUCH LAWS.” 
 (ii) Upon the request
of the Investor and the receipt by Atlantic Capital of an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to Atlantic Capital to the effect that the restriction referenced in the foregoing legend (or restrictive code) is no longer required in order to
ensure compliance with the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws, as the case may be, Atlantic Capital shall promptly (and in any event within three (3) business days) cause the legend to be removed from any certificate (or
restrictive code from any book entry recordation). 
 i. Furnishing of Information. Until the Investor no longer owns any of the
Investor Shares (and Backstop Securities, if applicable), Atlantic Capital covenants to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all Company Reports required to be filed by Atlantic Capital
after the date hereof. For purposes hereof, “Company Reports” means all material reports, registrations and statements, together with any required amendments thereto, required to be filed with the SEC, the Federal Reserve Board, the
FDIC, the OCC and any other applicable federal or state securities or banking authorities. 
 j. Integration. Except in connection
with the Sub Debt Issuance or other Alternate Senior Financing, Atlantic Capital shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that
would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Investor Shares (or Backstop Securities, if applicable) under applicable law or the rules and regulations of the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”). 

k. Anti-takeover Provisions. Atlantic Capital will not make or enforce any claim, or consent to the making or enforcement of such a
claim by any other person, that the Investor is an “Acquiring Person” (or like term) under any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or similar anti-takeover plan
or arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by Atlantic Capital, or that the Investor could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement, by virtue of receiving the Investor Shares (and Backstop Securities, if applicable)
under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Atlantic Capital and the Investor. 

  
 - 37 - 








 l. Tax Information. At or prior to the date hereof, Atlantic Capital shall have provided
the Investor with a true, correct and complete copy of Section 4.10(b) of the FSGI Disclosure Schedule. 
 7. Indemnification.

 a. Indemnification of Investor. Atlantic Capital will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Investor and its Affiliates and
their respective directors, officers, stockholders, members, partners, employees and agents (and any other persons or entities with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other
title), each Person who controls the Investor (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, stockholders, members, partners, employees and agents (and any other
Person with a functionally equivalent role of a person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling person (each, an “Indemnified Person”), from any and all losses, liabilities,
obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation, that any such Indemnified Person may suffer or incur
as a result of (i) any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by Atlantic Capital in this Agreement, or (ii) any legal, administrative, arbitral or other material proceedings, claims, actions or
governmental or regulatory investigations (collectively, an “Action”) instituted against an Indemnified Person in any capacity by any stockholder of or the Surviving Corporation with respect to any of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement. 
 b. Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any Indemnified Person of any notice of
any demand, claim or circumstances which would or might give rise to a claim or the commencement of any Action by a third party (a “Third-Party Claim”), in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Section 7,
such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify Atlantic Capital in writing, and Atlantic Capital shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof (in which case Atlantic Capital shall employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person
and assume the payment of all fees and expenses in connection with such Third-Party Claim); provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Person so to notify Atlantic Capital shall not relieve Atlantic Capital of its obligations hereunder except to
the extent that Atlantic Capital is actually and materially and adversely prejudiced by such failure to notify. If Atlantic Capital assumes the defense of any Third-Party Claim, all Indemnified Parties shall thereafter deliver to Atlantic Capital
copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third-Party Claim, and each Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate in the defense or prosecution of such Third-Party Claim. In any
such Third-Party Claim, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless: (i) Atlantic Capital and the Indemnified Person
shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel; (ii) Atlantic Capital shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim and/or to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person in such
Third-Party Claim; or (iii) in the reasonable judgment of counsel to such Indemnified 

  
 - 38 - 








 
Person, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. Atlantic Capital shall not be liable for any
settlement of any Third-Party Claim effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, delayed or conditioned, Atlantic Capital shall not effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Third-Party Claim in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder
by such Indemnified Person. 
 8. Termination. 

a. This Agreement may be terminated prior to the Closing: 

(i) by mutual written consent of the Investor and Atlantic Capital; 

(ii) by Atlantic Capital or the Investor, upon written notice to the other party, in the event that the Closing does not occur on or before
March 25, 2016; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8(a)(ii) shall not be available to any party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement shall have been
the cause of, or shall have resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or prior to such date; 
 (iii) by Atlantic Capital or the
Investor, upon written notice to the other party, in the event that any Governmental Entity shall have issued any order, decree or injunction or taken any other action restraining, enjoining or prohibiting any of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement or the Merger Agreement, and such order, decree, injunction or other action shall have become final and nonappealable; 

(iv) by Atlantic Capital or the Investor, upon written notice to the other party, if Atlantic Capital or any of its Affiliates receives
written notice from or is otherwise advised by a Governmental Entity that it will not grant (or intends to rescind or revoke if previously approved) any Atlantic Capital Requisite Regulatory Approval; 

(v) by the Investor, if the Investor is not in material breach of any of the terms of this Agreement, and there has been a material breach of
any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Atlantic Capital in this Agreement, or any such representation and warranty thereof shall have become untrue after the date of this Agreement, such that Section 3(c)(iii) or
(iv) would not be satisfied and such breach or condition is not curable or, if curable, is not cured within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof is given by the Investor to Atlantic Capital; or 

(vi) by the Investor, if the Merger Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms, or if any material term of the Merger
Agreement shall have been amended without the prior written consent of the Investor in a manner that would reasonably impair in any material respect the benefits to the Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby. 

  
 - 39 - 








 b. In the event of any termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 8(a), this
Agreement (other than this Section 8(b) and Section 9 (other than Section 9(a)) and all applicable defined terms, which shall remain in full force and effect) and the Corporate Governance Agreement (other than the expense
reimbursement provisions set forth therein with respect to reimbursable expenses incurred prior to the date of termination) shall forthwith become wholly void and of no further force and effect; provided that nothing herein shall relieve any party
from liability for willful breach of this Agreement. 
 9. Miscellaneous. 

a. Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. Each of the representations and warranties of Atlantic Capital and the
Investor set forth in this Agreement shall survive the Closing Date and the delivery of the Investor Shares (and Backstop Securities, if applicable) for a period of two years; provided that the representations and warranties in Sections 4(a), 4(b),
4(c)(i), 4(c)(ii)(A), 4(e) and 4(h) shall survive indefinitely. 
 b. Notices. All notices, requests, consents and other
communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered in person, by first-class registered or certified airmail (postage prepaid), by nationally recognized overnight express courier or by facsimile, and shall be deemed given
(i) if delivered in person, upon delivery, (ii) if delivered by first-class registered or certified airmail, three business days after so mailed, (iii) if delivered by a nationally recognized overnight courier, one business day after
so mailed, and (iv) if delivered by facsimile, upon electronic confirmation of receipt, and shall be delivered as addressed as follows:

 EXHIBIT A 

Opinion 
 [Omitted] 







 SCHEDULE A 

Registration Rights 
 Defined
terms used but not defined in this Schedule A shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the securities purchase agreement (including all schedules and exhibits thereto, the “Agreement”) to which this Schedule A
is attached. 
 1. Request for Registration. 

1.1. Registrations on Form S-1. Following the effective date of Atlantic Capital’s first registration statement under the
Securities Act or the Exchange Act, which for purposes hereof shall be the registration statement on Form S-4 filed in connection with the Merger, one or more holders of Registrable Securities (as defined below) may, by written notice to Atlantic
Capital, request that Atlantic Capital effect the registration on Form S-1 (unless Atlantic Capital is eligible at such time to file a Registration Statement on Form S-3) of a number of Registrable Securities for which the gross aggregate offering
price is reasonably expected to be at least $5.0 million. If the holders of Registrable Securities initiating such registration intend to distribute the Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering, they shall so state in their request.
Promptly after receipt of such notice, Atlantic Capital will give written notice of such requested registration to all other holders of Registrable Securities. Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities initially requesting the registration
shall be entitled to select the investment banking firm or firms to act as the managing underwriter or underwriters in connection with such offering, provided that, such selection shall be subject to the consent of Atlantic Capital, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Atlantic Capital will then, as provided in Section 4 hereof, effect the registration under the Securities Act of the Registrable Securities which Atlantic Capital has been requested to
register by such initiating holders of Registrable Securities, and all other Registrable Securities which Atlantic Capital has been requested to register by any other holders of Registrable Securities by notice delivered to Atlantic Capital within
ten (10) days after the giving of such notice by Atlantic Capital. 
 1.2. Registration on Form S-3. At any time after Atlantic
Capital becomes eligible to file a Registration Statement on Form S-3, one or more holders of Registrable Securities may, by written notice to Atlantic Capital, request that Atlantic Capital effect the registration on Form S-3 of a number of
Registrable Securities having an aggregate value (based on the market price of fair market value on the date of such request) of at least $5.0 million. If the holders of Registrable Securities initiating such registration intend to distribute the
Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering, they shall so state in their request. Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities initially requesting the registration shall be entitled to select the investment banking firm or firms to
act as the managing underwriter or underwriters in connection with such offering, provided that, such selection shall be subject to the consent of Atlantic Capital, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Promptly
after receipt of such notice, Atlantic Capital will give written notice of such requested registration to all other holders of Registrable Securities. Atlantic Capital will then, as provided in Section 4 hereof, effect the registration under
the Securities Act of the Registrable Securities which Atlantic Capital has been requested to register by such initiating holders of Registrable 

  
 A-1 








 
Securities, and all other Registrable Securities which Atlantic Capital has been requested to register by any other holders of Registrable Securities by notice delivered to Atlantic Capital
within ten (10) days after the giving of such notice by Atlantic Capital. 
 1.3. Postponement. Atlantic Capital shall not be
obligated to effect any registration within ninety (90) days after the effective date of a previous registration in which holders of Registrable Securities were permitted to register and actually sold all of the shares of Registrable Securities
requested to be included therein. Atlantic Capital shall not be obligated to effect or take any action to effect any registration pursuant to Section 1.1 or Section 1.2 during the period that is thirty (30) days before Atlantic
Capital’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on a date that is ninety (90) days after the effective date of, a registration statement initiated by Atlantic Capital, provided that Atlantic Capital is employing good
faith commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; provided that holders of Registrable Securities will have the piggyback registration rights set forth in Section 2 with respect to such
registration statement. Further, Atlantic Capital may postpone for a period of up to 45 days the filing of any registration required to be filed pursuant to this Section 1 to the extent the Board of Directors in good faith determines that such
postponement is necessary in the good faith judgment of the Atlantic Capital Board of Directors in order to avoid (i) the material interference with a significant financing, acquisition, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar
transaction; (ii) the premature disclosure of material information that Atlantic Capital has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential; or (iii) would render Atlantic Capital unable to comply with the requirements of the
Securities Act or Exchange Act; provided, however, that Atlantic Capital may not exercise such right of postponement within any period of 365 days more than once and during such postponement Atlantic Capital shall be prohibited from
filing a registration statement for its own account or for the account of any other holder of its securities. If Atlantic Capital elects to postpone the filing of a registration statement pursuant to this Section 1.3, the holders of Registrable
Securities may withdraw such request and upon such withdrawal, such request shall be deemed not to have been made for any purpose of this Agreement. 

1.4. Number of Requests. 

1.4.1. Section 1.1 Registrations. Atlantic Capital shall not be required to effect more than two
(2) registrations pursuant to Section 1.1 in any period of twelve (12) months. No registration of Registrable Securities under Section 1.1 shall be deemed to be a registration for any purpose of this Section 1.4.1 which
shall not have become and remained effective in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. 
 1.4.2.
Section 1.2 Registrations. Atlantic Capital shall not be required to effect more than three (3) registrations pursuant to Section 1.2 in any period of twelve (12) months (exclusive of Block Trade Offerings contemplated by
Section 3.1.1 and defined below). Each registration requested pursuant to Section 1.2 shall be effected by the filing of a registration statement on Form S-3 (or any other form which includes substantially the same information as would be
required to be included in a registration statement on such form as currently constituted), unless the Form S-3 is not available as a result of actions of or inaction by Atlantic Capital in which case such registration shall be on Form S-1 without
regard to the limitation on registrations on Form S-1 set forth on Section 

  
 A-2 








 
1.4.1. No registration of Registrable Securities under Section 1.2 shall be deemed to be a registration for any purpose of this Section 1.4.2 which shall not have become and remained
effective in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. 
 1.5. Payment of Expenses. Atlantic Capital hereby agrees to pay all
Registration Expenses (defined below) in connection with all registrations effected pursuant to Sections 1.1 and 1.2. “Registration Expenses” means all expenses incident to performance of or compliance with Sections 1, 2 and 3 by
Atlantic Capital, including without limitation all registration and filing fees, all listing fees, all fees and expenses of complying with securities or blue sky laws, all printing and automated document preparation expenses, all messenger and
delivery expenses, the fees and disbursements of counsel for Atlantic Capital and of its independent public accountants, including the expenses of any special audits required by or incident to such performance and compliance, and the reasonable fees
and disbursements of one counsel for the Participating Holders on whose behalf Registrable Securities are being registered, but excluding underwriting discounts and commissions and applicable transfer taxes, if any, which shall be borne by the
sellers of the Registrable Securities in all cases. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if a registration attempted under Sections 1.1 or 1.2 to which Atlantic Capital would be responsible for the Registration Expenses of the Holders is
not consummated solely as a result of the withdrawal of the Holders requesting such registration, unless such Holders reimburse the Registration Expenses incurred by Atlantic Capital, such Registration Statement will count as a completed
registration for purposes of the maximum number of registrations that Atlantic Capital is required to consummate in the aggregate or in any twelve-month period, as may be applicable. 

1.6. Resale Rights. If a holder of Registrable Securities requests a registration pursuant to this Section 1 in connection with a
distribution of Registrable Securities to its partners, members, or stockholders, the registration shall provide for resale by such partners, members, or stockholders. 

2. Piggyback Registration. If Atlantic Capital at any time proposes to register any of its equity securities under the Securities Act, for its own
account or for the account of any holder of its securities, on a form which would permit registration of Registrable Securities for sale to the public under the Securities Act, or proposes to register any securities in a so-called
“unallocated” or “universal” shelf registration statement and such registration would permit registration of Registrable Securities thereunder, Atlantic Capital will each such time give notice to all holders of Registrable
Securities of its intention to do so. Such notice shall describe such securities and specify the form, manner and other relevant aspects of such proposed registration. Any such holder may, by written response delivered to Atlantic Capital within
twenty (20) days after the giving of any such notice by Atlantic Capital, request that all or a specified part of the Registrable Securities held by such holder be included in such registration. Atlantic Capital thereupon will as a part of its
filing of such form cause to be included in such registration under the Securities Act all Registrable Securities which Atlantic Capital has been so requested to register by the holders of Registrable Securities. Atlantic Capital shall be under no
obligation to complete any offering of its securities it proposes to make under this Section 2 and shall incur no liability to any holder of Registrable Securities for its failure to do so. No registration of Registrable Securities effected
under this Section 2 shall relieve Atlantic Capital of any of its obligations to effect registrations of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 1.1 or 1.2. If a registration under this Section 2 is initiated as (x) a primary
firm commitment underwritten 

  
 A-3 








 
offering on behalf of Atlantic Capital or (y) for the account of any person (other than a holder of Registrable Securities) exercising a contractual right to demand registration, and the
managing underwriter advises Atlantic Capital, such other holders and the holders of Registrable Securities (if any holders of Registrable Securities have elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration) in writing that in its opinion
the number of shares of Atlantic Capital Common Stock proposed to be included in such registration, including all Registrable Securities and all other shares of Atlantic Capital Common Stock proposed to be included in such underwritten offering,
exceeds the number of shares of Atlantic Capital Common Stock which can be sold in such offering and/or that the number of shares of Atlantic Capital Common Stock proposed to be included in any such registration would adversely affect the price per
share of the Atlantic Capital Common Stock to be sold in such offering, Atlantic Capital shall include in such registration (i) first, the number of shares of Atlantic Capital Common Stock that Atlantic Capital or, in the case of clause
(y) any person (other than a holder of Registrable Securities) exercising a contractual right to demand registration proposes to sell; (ii) second, the number of shares of Atlantic Capital Common Stock requested to be included therein by
holders of Registrable Securities, allocated pro rata among all such holders on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities owned by each such holder or in such manner as they may otherwise agree; and (iii) third, the number of shares of
Atlantic Capital Common Stock requested to be included therein by holders of Atlantic Capital Common Stock (other than holders of Registrable Securities), allocated among such holders in such manner as they may agree. 

2.1. Excluded Transactions. Atlantic Capital shall not be obligated to effect any registration of Registrable Securities under this
Section 2 incidental to the registration of any of its securities in connection with any mergers, acquisitions or exchange offers or in connection with any dividend reinvestment plans or stock option or other employee benefit plans. 

2.2. Payment of Expenses. Atlantic Capital hereby agrees to pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each registration of
Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this Section 2. 
 3. Registration Procedures. 

3.1. Company Obligations. If and whenever Atlantic Capital is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under
the Securities Act as provided in Sections 1 or 2 hereof, Atlantic Capital shall as expeditiously as reasonably possible: 

3.1.1. Registration Statement. Use its best efforts to prepare and (in the case of a registration pursuant to
Section 1 hereof, promptly and in any event within 60 days after a request for registration is delivered to Atlantic Capital under Section 1.1 or within 30 days after a request for registration is delivered to Atlantic Capital under
Section 1.2) file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and cause such registration statement to become effective as soon as possible thereafter. Such registration statement shall be for an
offering to be made on a continuous or delayed basis (“Shelf Registration Statement”) if Atlantic Capital is eligible for the use thereof and holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement
(the “Majority Participating Holders”) have requested a Shelf Registration Statement. At any time during which Atlantic Capital has an effective Shelf Registration 

  
 A-4 








 
Statement with respect to Registrable Securities, by notice to Atlantic Capital specifying the intended method or methods of disposition thereof, such holder thereof may make a written request (a
“Shelf Takedown Request”) to Atlantic Capital to effect a public offering pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement, including an Underwritten Shelf Takedown or Block Trade Offering, of all or a portion of such holder’s
Registrable Securities that are covered by such Shelf Registration Statement, and as soon as practicable Atlantic Capital shall amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement for such purpose. Atlantic Capital shall not be obligated to take
any action to effect any Underwritten Shelf Takedown if a registration effected pursuant to Section 1.1 or an Underwritten Shelf Takedown was consummated within the preceding 90 days (unless otherwise consented to by Atlantic Capital). 

3.1.2. Amendments and Supplements to Registration Statement. 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 and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of
all Registrable Securities and other securities, if any, covered by such registration statement until such time as all such Registrable Securities have been disposed of by the seller or sellers thereof in accordance with the intended methods of
disposition set forth in such registration statement. 
 3.1.3. Cooperation. Use its best efforts to cooperate as may
be reasonably requested by the seller of such Registrable Securities (sometimes referred to as a “Participating Holder”) in the disposition of the Atlantic Capital Common Stock covered by such registration statement, including
without limitation (i) in the case of an underwritten offering causing key executives of Atlantic Capital to participate under the direction of the managing underwriter in a “road show” scheduled by such managing underwriter in such
locations and of such duration as in the reasonable judgment of such managing underwriter are appropriate for such underwritten offering and (ii) take all such other actions as any such holder or the managing underwriter or underwriters, if
any, reasonably requests in order to expedite or facilitate the registration and disposition of such Registrable Securities. 

3.1.4. Furnishing of Copies of Registration Statements and Other Documents. Furnish to each seller of such Registrable
Securities such number of conformed copies of such registration statement and of each such amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits), such number of copies of the prospectus included in such registration statement
(including each preliminary prospectus and any summary prospectus), each in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, such documents incorporated by reference in such registration statement or prospectus and such other documents as
such seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities of such seller covered by such registration statement. 

3.1.5. State Securities Laws. Use its best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities under such
securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions as the sellers shall reasonably request, and do any and all other acts and things which may be 

  
 A-5 








 
necessary or advisable to enable each seller to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities of such seller covered by such registration statement;
provided, however, that Atlantic Capital shall not be obligated to file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign corporation or subject Atlantic Capital to taxation in any jurisdiction in which it is not so
qualified or would not otherwise be so subject. 
 3.1.6. Opinion of Counsel; Comfort Letter. Use commercially
reasonable best efforts to obtain all legal opinions, auditors consents, comfort letters, negative assurance letters and experts cooperation as may be required, including furnishing to each underwriter of Registrable Securities on the date that the
registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities becomes effective, (i) an opinion, dated as of such date, of counsel for Atlantic Capital and (ii) a “cold comfort” letter, dated as of such date, signed by the
independent public accountants of Atlantic Capital, in each case in form, scope and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering. 

3.1.7. Notice of Prospectus Defects. Immediately notify each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto 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 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 not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, and at the request
of any such seller prepare, file with the SEC (as applicable) and furnish to such seller a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of
such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the
circumstances then existing. 
 3.1.8. Stop Orders. In the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the
effectiveness of such registration statement, or any order suspending or preventing the use of any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of any Registrable Securities included in such registration statement for sale in any jurisdiction,
use its best efforts promptly to obtain the withdrawal of such order. 
 3.1.9. General Compliance with Federal Securities
Laws; Section 11(a) Earning Statement. Otherwise use best efforts to comply with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and all other applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make available to its securities holders, as soon as
reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve (12) months after the effective date of such registration statement, which earning statement shall satisfy Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and any
applicable regulations thereunder, including Rule 158. 

  
 A-6 








 3.1.10. Underwriting Agreement. In the event of any underwritten offering,
enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. 

3.1.11. Exchange Listing. Use its best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities
exchange or over-the-counter market on which any equity security of Atlantic Capital is then listed or, if Atlantic Capital does not have a class of equity securities listed on a national securities exchange or over-the-counter market, apply for
qualification and use its best efforts to qualify such Registrable Securities for listing on the New York Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ Global Market or the NASDAQ Global Select Market or comparable trading system. 

3.1.12. Due Diligence. Make available for inspection by any seller of Registrable Securities, any underwriter
participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such seller or underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of
Atlantic Capital, and cause Atlantic Capital’s officers, directors, employees and independent accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such
registration statement, in each case subject to the requirement that recipients execute appropriate and reasonable confidentiality agreements if requested by Atlantic Capital. 

3.1.13. Transfer Agent. Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Securities not later than the
effective date of such registration statement. 
 3.1.14. Legend. Use best efforts to cause Atlantic Capital’s
transfer agent to reissue promptly unlegended certificates or other evidence of ownership at the request of any holder thereof if the holder shall have obtained an opinion of counsel, which counsel may be counsel to Atlantic Capital, reasonably
acceptable to Atlantic Capital to the effect that the securities proposed to be disposed of may be lawfully disposed of without registration. 

3.2. Seller Information. Atlantic Capital may require each seller of Registrable Securities as to which any registration is being
effected to furnish Atlantic Capital such information regarding such seller and the distribution of such securities as Atlantic Capital may from time to time reasonably request in writing and which shall be required by the Securities Act (or similar
state laws) or by the SEC in connection therewith, and Atlantic Capital may exclude from any Registration Statement any Holder that fails to deliver such information in a timely manner. 

3.3. Conversion only Upon Consummation of Offering. No holder of Registrable Securities shall be required by this Agreement to convert
any Registrable Security into Atlantic Capital Common Stock except at the applicable closing or closings of an underwritten registered offering and except upon the sale of such Registrable Security in the case of other registered offerings. 

3.4. Discontinue Selling. Each seller of Registrable Securities agrees that, upon written notice of (i) the happening of any event
as a result of which the prospectus included in any 

  
 A-7 








 
registration statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) the issuance of a stop
order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement, such seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until such seller is advised in writing by Atlantic Capital that
the use of the prospectus may be resumed and if applicable is furnished with a supplemented or amended prospectus as contemplated by Section 3.1.7 hereof. 

4. Additional Procedures in Connection with Underwritten Offerings; Cutbacks. 

4.1. Registrations Upon Request Pursuant to Section 1. In the case of a registration pursuant to Section 1, whenever the
Majority Participating Holders shall request that such registration shall be effected pursuant to an underwritten offering, such registration shall be so effected, and only securities which are to be distributed by the underwriters, which
underwriters shall be designated by the Majority Participating Holders and shall be reasonably acceptable to Atlantic Capital, may be included in such registration. If requested by such underwriters, Atlantic Capital and each participating seller
will enter into an underwriting agreement with such underwriters for such offering containing such representations and warranties by Atlantic Capital and such participating sellers and such other terms and provisions as are customarily contained in
underwriting agreements with respect to secondary distributions, including, without limitation, customary indemnity and contribution provisions. 

4.2. Piggyback Registrations Pursuant to Section 2. In connection with the exercise of any registration rights granted to holders
of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2 hereof, if the registration is to be effected by means of an underwritten offering of Atlantic Capital Common Stock on a firm commitment basis, Atlantic Capital may condition participation in such
registration by such holders upon inclusion of the Registrable Securities being so registered in such underwriting. The holders of Registrable Securities participating in any registration pursuant to Section 2 shall be parties to the
underwriting agreement entered into by Atlantic Capital and any other selling stockholders in connection therewith containing such representations and warranties by Atlantic Capital and such participating sellers and such other terms and provisions
as are customarily contained in underwriting agreements with respect to secondary distributions, including, without limitation, customary indemnity and contribution provisions; provided, however, that the liability of each
Participating Holder in respect of any indemnification, contribution or other obligation of such Participating Holder arising under such underwriting agreement (i) shall be limited to losses arising out of or based upon an untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, any such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement, incorporated document or other such disclosure document or
other document or report, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information (such information shall be limited to such Participating Holder’s name, address and applicable holdings) furnished to Atlantic Capital by or on behalf of such
Participating Holder expressly for inclusion therein and (ii) shall not in any event exceed an amount equal to the net proceeds to such Participating Holder (after deduction of all underwriters’ discounts and commissions) from the
disposition of the Registrable Securities disposed of by such Participating Holder pursuant to such registration. 
 4.3. Cutbacks.


  
 A-8 








 4.3.1. Section 1 Cutbacks. If the managing underwriter advises Atlantic Capital that
the number of shares to be included in a registration pursuant to Section 1 should be limited due to market conditions, (i) all shares other than Registrable Securities shall first be excluded, and (ii) thereafter, if additional
shares must be excluded from such registration, all Participating Holders, shall share pro rata in the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be excluded from such registration pursuant to this clause (ii), such sharing to be based on the
respective numbers of Registrable Securities owned by such Participating Holders. 
 4.3.2. Section 2 Cutbacks. If the managing
underwriter advises Atlantic Capital that the number of shares to be included in a registration pursuant to Section 2 should be limited due to market conditions, (i) all shares of securities held by shareholders of Atlantic Capital other
than holders of Registrable Securities (other than a holder of Registrable Securities) exercising a contractual right to demand registration giving rise to such registration shall first be excluded, (ii) next, if additional shares must be
excluded from such registration, all Participating Holders shall share pro rata in the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be excluded from such registration pursuant to this clause (ii), such sharing to be based on the respective numbers
of Registrable Securities owned by such Participating Holders, and (iii) thereafter, if additional shares must be excluded from such registration, shares to be sold for the account of Atlantic Capital shall be excluded; provided,
however, that no exclusion provided for herein shall reduce the amount of Registrable Securities to be included in such registration to an amount that is less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the total amount of shares to be included in
such registration based on aggregate market value. 
 4.4 Lockup. Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees that in connection
with any firm commitment public offering of the Atlantic Capital Common Stock or other equity securities, and upon the request of the managing underwriter in such offering, such holder shall not, without the prior written consent of such managing
underwriter, during the period commencing the effective date of such registration and ending on the date specified by such managing underwriter (such period not to exceed 180 days in the case of an initial public offering (“IPO”) or
90 days in the case of any registration other than an IPO), (a) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, hedge the beneficial ownership of or otherwise dispose of,
directly or indirectly, any shares of Atlantic Capital Common Stock or any securities convertible into, exercisable for or exchangeable for shares of Atlantic Capital Common Stock, or (b) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers
to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (a) or (b) above is to be settled by delivery of Atlantic Capital Common Stock or such
other securities, in cash or otherwise. The foregoing provisions of Section 4.4 shall not apply to sales of Registrable Securities to be included in such offering pursuant to Section 1.1, Section 1.2 or Section 2, and shall be
applicable to the holders of Registrable Securities only if Atlantic Capital, all officers and directors of Atlantic Capital as well as all stockholders owning more than 5% of Atlantic Capital’s outstanding Common Stock are subject to the same
restrictions. Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the managing underwriter which are consistent with the foregoing or which are necessary to give
further effect thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 4.4, each holder of Registrable Securities shall be released, pro rata, from any lock-up agreement entered into pursuant to this Section 4.4 in the

 5. Indemnification and Contribution. 

5.1. Indemnities of Atlantic Capital. In the event of any registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant
to Section 1 or 2, and in connection with any registration statement or any other disclosure document produced by or on behalf of Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with any such registration, Atlantic Capital will, and
hereby does, indemnify and hold harmless each holder of Registrable Securities, their respective direct and indirect partners, members, stockholders, directors, advisory board members, officers, representatives on the Board of Directors, and each
other Person, if any, who controls or is alleged to control any such holder of Registrable Securities, within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each such Person being referred to herein as a
“Covered Person”), against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof), joint or several, to which such Covered Person may be or become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange
Act, any other securities or other law of any jurisdiction, common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained or incorporated by reference in any such registration statement under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus included therein, or any related summary prospectus,
free writing prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein, (ii) 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 (iii) any violation or alleged violation of any federal, state, foreign or common law rule or regulation applicable to Atlantic Capital or any of its Subsidiaries and relating to action or inaction in
connection with any such registration, disclosure document or other document or report, and will reimburse such Covered Person for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss,
claim, damage, liability, action or proceeding; provided, however, that Atlantic Capital shall not be liable to any such holder of Registrable Securities in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or
proceeding to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, any such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary
prospectus, amendment or supplement, incorporated document or other such disclosure document or other document or report, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to Atlantic Capital relating to such holder by or on
behalf of such holder expressly for use in connection therewith. The indemnities of Atlantic Capital contained in this Section 5.1 shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Covered Person
and shall survive any transfer of Registrable Securities. 

  
 A-10 








 5.2. Indemnities to Atlantic Capital. In the event of any registration of Registrable
Securities pursuant to Section 1 or 2, each seller of Registrable Securities in such registration will, and hereby does, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless Atlantic Capital, each director of Atlantic Capital, each officer of
Atlantic Capital who shall sign such registration statement and each other Person (other than such seller), if any, who controls Atlantic Capital within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act,
with respect to any statement in or omission from such registration statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus included therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, any free writing prospectus, or any document
incorporated by reference therein, or any other such disclosure document (including without limitation reports and other documents filed under the Exchange Act and any document incorporated by reference therein) or other document or report, if such
statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information relating to such seller furnished to Atlantic Capital by or on behalf of such seller expressly for use in connection therewith. Such indemnity contained in
this Section 5.2 shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of Atlantic Capital or any such director, officer or controlling Person and shall survive any transfer of Registrable Securities. 

5.3. Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action or
proceeding involving a claim of the type referred to in the foregoing provisions of this Section 5, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party, give written notice to each such
indemnifying party of the commencement of such action; provided, however, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice to such indemnifying party as provided herein shall not relieve such indemnifying party of its
obligations under the foregoing provisions of this Section 5, except and solely to the extent that such indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action is brought against an indemnified party,
each indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense thereof, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to the extent that it may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified
party, and after notice from an indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, such indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred
by the latter in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if the indemnified party in good faith determines that there may be a conflict between the positions of such indemnifying party and the indemnified party in
conducting the defense of such action or that there may be defenses available to such indemnified party different from or in addition to those available to such indemnifying party, then (i) counsel for the indemnified party shall conduct the
defense of the indemnified party to the extent in good faith determined by such counsel to be necessary to protect the interests of the indemnified party and such indemnifying party shall employ separate counsel for its own defense, (ii) the
indemnified party shall be entitled to have counsel chosen by such indemnified party participate in, but not conduct, the defense and (iii) the indemnifying party shall bear the legal expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the conduct
of, and the participation in, the defense as referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above. If, within a reasonable time after receipt of the notice, such indemnifying party shall not have elected to assume the defense of the action, such
indemnifying party shall be responsible for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense of the action, suit, investigation, inquiry or proceeding. No indemnifying party will consent to
entry of 

  
 A-11 








 
any judgment or enter into any settlement which 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, and no indemnified party shall consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed. 
 5.4. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Sections 5.1 or 5.2 hereof is unavailable to a
party that would have been an indemnified party under any such Section in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each party that would have been an indemnifying
party thereunder shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such indemnifying party on the one hand and such indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof). The relative fault shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such indemnifying party or such indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission. The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5.4 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 preceding sentence. The amount paid or payable by a contributing party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to above in this
Section 5.4 shall include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. 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. 

5.5. Limitation on Liability of Holders of Registrable Securities. The liability of each seller of Registrable Securities in respect of
any indemnification or contribution obligation of such seller arising under this Section 5 shall not in any event exceed the lesser of (i) that proportion of the total of such losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities indemnified
against equal to the proportion of the total Registrable Securities sold under such registration held by such seller, and (ii) an aggregate amount equal to the net proceeds to such seller (after deduction of all underwriters’ discounts and
commissions) from the disposition of the Registrable Securities disposed of by such seller pursuant to such registration. 

  
 A-12 








 6. Reports under Exchange Act. With a view to making available to the holders of
Registrable Securities the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a holder of Registrable Securities to sell securities of
Atlantic Capital to the public without registration, and with a view to making it possible for holders of Registrable Securities to register the Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, Atlantic Capital agrees to:

 (c) furnish to any holder of Registrable Securities

requirements), or as to its qualification as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form S-3 (at any time after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of Atlantic Capital and such other
reports and documents so filed by Atlantic Capital and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any holder of Registrable Securities of any rule or regulation of the SEC which permits the selling of any such
securities without registration or pursuant to such form, including without limitation, an opinion of counsel that any restrictive legend may be removed. 

7. Assignment of Registration Rights. The consent of Atlantic Capital shall not be required for an assignment by any holder of
Registrable Securities to (a) any person or entity to which Registrable Securities are transferred by such holder, or (b) to any Affiliate of such holder, of the rights set forth in this Schedule A. Any transferee to whom rights
under this Schedule A are transferred shall (i) as a condition to such transfer, deliver to Atlantic Capital a written instrument by which such transferee agrees to be bound by the obligations imposed upon holders of Registrable
Securities under this Schedule A and (ii) be deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities hereunder. 
 8. Limitation on
Subsequent Registration Rights; Termination of Registration Rights. 
 8.1. Atlantic Capital shall not, without the prior written
consent of the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of Atlantic Capital that (i) grants registration or similar rights to any
person or entity that are prior in right or inconsistent with the rights granted the Investor by this Agreement (ii) would allow such holder or prospective holder to make a demand registration at any time when holders of Registrable Securities
are not able to fully exercise their rights hereunder or (iii) reduce the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in any registration. 

8.2. The rights granted to each holder of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Schedule A with respect to any request or requests
for registration made by such holder will survive until such holder no longer owns any Registrable Securities.

when (i) they are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, (ii) they cease to be outstanding; (iii) they have been otherwise transferred and may be resold without subsequent registration under the
Securities Act and any restrictive legend or stop transfer restrictions have been removed; or (iv) at such time as they are eligible to be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without restriction (including, without limitation, volume restrictions and the
need for current public information). 
 9.3. “Underwritten Shelf Takedown” means an underwritten offer and sale of

 6. No Rights as Stockholders; Transfer Books. This
Warrant does not entitle the Warrantholder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the date of exercise hereof. The Company will at no time close its transfer books against transfer of this Warrant in any manner
which interferes with the timely exercise of this Warrant. 
 7. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for Shares to
the Warrantholder upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Warrantholder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificates, all of which taxes and expenses shall be

name and address of the Warrantholder as the registered holder of this Warrant. This Warrant may be surrendered for exchange or exercise in accordance with its terms, at the office of the Company, and the Company shall be entitled to rely in all
respects, prior to written notice to the contrary, upon such registry. 
 10. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. Upon
receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of a bond, indemnity or security reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall make and deliver, in lieu of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant, a new Warrant of like tenor and
representing the right to purchase the same aggregate number of Shares as provided for in such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant. 

11. Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right
required or granted herein shall not be a business day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day that is a business day. 

12. Rule 144 Information. The Company covenants that it will use its reasonable best efforts to timely file all reports and other
documents required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC thereunder (or, if the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any
Warrantholder, make publicly available such information as necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act), and it will use reasonable best efforts to take such further action as any Warrantholder may reasonably request, in
each case to the extent required from time to time to enable such holder to, if permitted by the terms of this Warrant and the Purchase Agreement, sell this Warrant without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the
exemptions provided by (A) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time, or (B) any successor rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the written request of any Warrantholder, the Company

 13. Adjustments and Other Rights. The Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows; provided, that if more than one subsection of this Section 13 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the
largest adjustment and no single event shall cause an adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section 13 so as to result in duplication: 

(A) Stock Splits, Subdivisions, Reclassifications or Combinations. If the Company shall (i) declare and pay a dividend or make a
distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or (iii) combine or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares, the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be
proportionately adjusted so that the Warrantholder after such date shall be entitled to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock which such holder would have owned or been entitled to receive in respect of the shares of Common Stock subject to
this Warrant after such date had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such date. In such event, the Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such subdivision,
combination or reclassification shall be adjusted to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment and (2) the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to the record or effective date, as the case may be, for the dividend, distribution, subdivision, combination or reclassification giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the
Warrant determined pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. 
 (B) Certain Issuances of Common Shares or Convertible
Securities. If the Company shall issue shares of Common Stock (or rights or warrants or other securities exercisable or convertible into or exchangeable (collectively, a “conversion”) for shares of Common Stock) (collectively,
“convertible securities”) (other than in Permitted Transactions (as defined below) or a transaction to which subsection (A) of this Section 13 is applicable) without consideration or at a consideration per share (or having
a conversion price per share) that is less than 90% of the Market Price on the last trading day preceding the date of the agreement on pricing such shares (or such convertible securities) then, in such event: 

(A) the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to the date of the agreement on pricing of such shares
(or of such convertible securities) (the “Initial Number”) shall be increased to the number obtained by multiplying the Initial Number by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the sum of (x) the number of shares
of Common Stock of the Company outstanding on such date and (y) the number of additional shares of Common Stock issued (or into which convertible securities may be exercised or convert) and (B) the denominator of which shall be the sum of
(I) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date and (II) the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration receivable by the Company for the total number of shares of Common Stock so issued (or into which
convertible securities may be exercised or convert) would purchase at the Market Price on the last trading day preceding the date of the agreement on pricing such shares (or such convertible securities); and 

  
 B-7 








 (B) the Exercise Price payable upon exercise of the Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying such
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the date of the agreement on pricing of such shares (or of such convertible securities) by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant prior to such date and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately after the adjustment described in clause (A) above. 

For purposes of the foregoing, the aggregate consideration receivable by the Company in connection with the issuance of such shares of Common
Stock or convertible securities shall be deemed to be equal to the sum of the net offering price (including the Fair Market Value of any non-cash consideration and after deduction of any related expenses payable to third parties) of all such
securities plus the minimum aggregate amount, if any, payable upon exercise or conversion of any such convertible securities into shares of Common Stock; and “Permitted Transactions” shall mean issuances (i) as consideration
for or to fund the acquisition of businesses and/or related assets, (ii) in connection with employee benefit plans and compensation related arrangements in the ordinary course and consistent with past practice approved by the Board of
Directors, (iii) in connection with a public or broadly marketed offering and sale of Common Stock or convertible securities for cash conducted by the Company or its affiliates pursuant to registration under the Securities Act or Rule 144A
thereunder on a basis consistent with capital raising transactions by comparable financial institutions and (iv) in connection with the exercise of preemptive rights on terms existing as of the Issue Date. Any adjustment made pursuant to this
Section 13(B) shall become effective immediately upon the date of such issuance. 
 (C) Other Distributions. In case the Company
shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all holders of shares of its Common Stock of securities, evidences of indebtedness, assets, cash, rights or warrants (excluding dividends of its Common Stock and other dividends or
distributions referred to in Section 13(A)), in each such case, the Exercise Price in effect prior to such record date shall be reduced immediately thereafter to the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior
to the reduction by the quotient of (x) the Market Price of the Common Stock on the last trading day preceding the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common Stock
is listed or admitted to trading without the right to receive such distribution, minus the amount of cash and/or the Fair Market Value of the securities, evidences of indebtedness, assets, rights or warrants to be so distributed in respect of one
share of Common Stock (such amount and/or Fair Market Value, the “Per Share Fair Market Value”) divided by (y) such Market Price on such date specified in clause (x); such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a
record date is fixed. In such event, the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be increased to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant before such adjustment, and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the distribution giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. In
the event that such distribution is not so made, the Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant then in effect shall be readjusted, effective as of the date when the Board of Directors determines not to


  
 B-8 








 
distribute such shares, evidences of indebtedness, assets, rights, cash or warrants, as the case may be, to the Exercise Price that would then be in effect and the number of Shares that would
then be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant if such record date had not been fixed. 
 (D) Certain Repurchases of Common Stock. In
case the Company effects a Pro Rata Repurchase of Common Stock, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date of such Pro Rata Repurchase by a
fraction of which the numerator shall be (i) the product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such Pro Rata Repurchase and (y) the Market Price of a share of Common Stock on the trading day
immediately preceding the first public announcement by the Company or any of its Affiliates of the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase, minus (ii) the aggregate purchase price of the Pro Rata Repurchase, and of which the denominator shall
be the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Pro Rata Repurchase minus the number of shares of Common Stock so repurchased and (ii) the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the
trading day immediately preceding the first public announcement by the Company or any of its Affiliates of the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase. In such event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant
shall be increased to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment, and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Pro
Rata Repurchase giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. For the avoidance of doubt, no increase to the Exercise Price or decrease in the number of Shares
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made pursuant to this Section 13(D). 
 (E) Business Combinations. In case of
any Business Combination or reclassification of Common Stock (other than a reclassification of Common Stock referred to in Section 13(A)), the Warrantholder’s right to receive Shares upon exercise of this Warrant shall be converted into
the right to exercise this Warrant to acquire the number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) which the Common Stock issuable (at the time of such Business Combination or reclassification) upon exercise of this Warrant
immediately prior to such Business Combination or reclassification would have been entitled to receive upon consummation of such Business Combination or reclassification; and in any such case, if necessary, the provisions set forth herein with
respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Warrantholder shall be appropriately adjusted so as to be applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, to the Warrantholder’s right to exercise this Warrant in exchange for any shares of
stock or other securities or property pursuant to this paragraph. In determining the kind and amount of stock, securities or the property receivable upon exercise of this Warrant following the consummation of such Business Combination, if the
holders of Common Stock have the right to elect the kind or amount of consideration receivable upon consummation of such Business Combination, then the consideration that the Warrantholder shall be entitled to receive upon exercise shall be deemed
to be the types and amounts of consideration received by the majority of all holders of the shares of common stock that affirmatively make an election (or of all such holders if none make an election). 

(F) Rounding of Calculations; Minimum Adjustments. All calculations under this Section 13 shall be made to the nearest one-tenth
(1/10th) of a cent or to 

  
 B-9 








 
the nearest one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share, as the case may be. Any provision of this Section 13 to the contrary notwithstanding, no adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number
of Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable shall be made if the amount of such adjustment would be less than $0.01 or one-tenth (1/10th) of a share of Common Stock, but any such amount shall be carried forward and an adjustment with
respect thereto shall be made at the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate $0.01 or 1/10th of a share of Common Stock, or more. 

(G) Timing of Issuance of Additional Common Stock Upon Certain Adjustments. In any case in which the provisions of this Section 13
shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event, the Company may defer until the occurrence of such event (i) issuing to the Warrantholder of this Warrant exercised after such record date and
before the occurrence of such event the additional shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise by reason of the adjustment required by such event over and above the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise before giving effect to
such adjustment and (ii) paying to such Warrantholder any amount of cash in lieu of a fractional share of Common Stock; provided, however, that the Company upon request shall deliver to such Warrantholder a due bill or other
appropriate instrument evidencing such Warrantholder’s right to receive such additional shares, and such cash, upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment. 

(H) Other Events. For so long as the Warrantholder holds this Warrant or any portion thereof, if any event occurs as to which the
provisions of this Section 13 are not strictly applicable or, if strictly applicable, would not, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, fairly and adequately protect the purchase rights of the Warrants in
accordance with the essential intent and principles of such provisions, then the Board of Directors shall make such adjustments in the application of such provisions, in accordance with such essential intent and principles, as shall be reasonably
necessary, in the good faith opinion of the Board of Directors, to protect such purchase rights as aforesaid. The Exercise Price or the number of Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable shall not be adjusted in the event of a change in the par
value of the Common Stock or a change in the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company. 
 (I) Statement Regarding Adjustments.
Whenever the Exercise Price or the number of Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable shall be adjusted as provided in Section 13, the Company shall forthwith file at the principal office of the Company a statement showing in reasonable
detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Exercise Price that shall be in effect and the number of Shares into which this Warrant shall be exercisable after such adjustment, and the Company shall also cause a copy of such statement to be
sent by mail, first class postage prepaid, to each Warrantholder at the address appearing in the Company’s records. 
 (J) Notice of
Adjustment Event. In the event that the Company shall propose to take any action of the type described in this Section 13 (but only if the action of the type described in this Section 13 would result in an adjustment in the Exercise
Price or the number of Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable or a change in the type of securities or property to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant), the Company shall give notice to the


  
 B-10 








 
Warrantholder, in the manner set forth in Section 13(J), which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the approximate date on which such action is
to take place. Such notice shall also set forth the facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect on the Exercise Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be
deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant. In the case of any action which would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at least 10 days prior to the date so fixed, and in case of all other action, such notice shall be given
at least 15 days prior to the taking of such proposed action. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of any such action. 

(K) Proceedings Prior to Any Action Requiring Adjustment. As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an
adjustment pursuant to this Section 13, the Company shall take any action which may be necessary, including obtaining regulatory, New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ Stock Market or other applicable national securities exchange or stockholder
approvals or exemptions, in order that the Company may thereafter validly and legally issue as fully paid and nonassessable all shares of Common Stock that the Warrantholder is entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this
Section 13. 
 (L) Adjustment Rules. Any adjustments pursuant to this Section 13 shall be made successively whenever an
event referred to herein shall occur. If an adjustment in Exercise Price made hereunder would reduce the Exercise Price to an amount below par value of the Common Stock, then such adjustment in Exercise Price made hereunder shall reduce the Exercise
Price to the par value of the Common Stock. 
 14. No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its Charter or through any
reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the
Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Warrantholder. 

15. Governing Law. This Warrant will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York
applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such State. Each of the Company and the Warrantholder agrees (a) to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts in the State of New York in the Borough of
Manhattan for any civil action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Warrant or the transactions contemplated hereby, and (b) that notice may be served upon the Company at the address in Section 20 below and upon the
Warrantholder at the address for the Warrantholder set forth in the registry maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 19 hereof. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Company and the Warrantholder hereby unconditionally
waives trial by jury in any civil legal action or proceeding relating to the Warrant or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 

16. Binding Effect. This Warrant shall be binding upon any successors or assigns of the Company. 

  
 B-11 








 17. Amendments. This Warrant may be amended and the observance of any term of this Warrant
may be waived only with the written consent of the Company and the Warrantholder. 
 18. Prohibited Actions. The Company agrees that
it will not take any action which would entitle the Warrantholder to an adjustment of the Exercise Price if the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable after such action upon exercise of this Warrant, together with all shares of Common Stock
then outstanding and all shares of Common Stock then issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding options, warrants, conversion and other rights, would exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock then authorized by its Charter. 

19. Notices. Any notice, request, instruction or other document to be given hereunder by any party to the other will be in writing and
will be deemed to have been duly given (a) on the date of delivery if delivered personally, or by facsimile, upon confirmation of receipt, or (b) on the second business day following the date of dispatch if delivered by a recognized next
day courier service. All notices hereunder shall be delivered as set forth below, or pursuant to such other instructions as may be designated in writing by the party to receive such notice.
