INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT 

This Investor Rights Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of May 22, 2017 (the
“Effective Date”), between Superior Industries International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and TPG Growth III Sidewall, L.P. (the “Investor”). 

 WHEREAS, the Investor and the Company have entered into that certain Investment Agreement,
dated as of March 22, 2017 (the “Investment Agreement”), pursuant to which Investor has agreed to purchase, subject to the satisfaction and/or waiver of the conditions set forth therein, up to an aggregate of 140,202
shares of Series A Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock and up to 9,798 shares of Series B Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock, each par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (collectively, the “Preferred Stock”); and 

WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to Investor’s obligation to purchase such Preferred Stock that the Company enter into this
Agreement with the Investor to provide for certain rights and obligations of the Parties following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows: 
 Section 1. Board of
Directors. 
 (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, from and after the Effective Date and for so long as the
Investor Amount is at least 50%: 
 (i) the Investor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to designate one person to
be appointed or nominated, as the case may be, for election to the Board (including any successor, each, a “Nominee”) by giving written notice to the Company on or before the time such information is reasonably requested by
the Board or the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for inclusion in a proxy statement for a meeting of stockholders provided to the Investor, together with all information about the Nominee as shall reasonably requested by the Board or
the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee in order to make the determination referred to in Section 1(a)(iv); provided, however, the initial Nominee shall be appointed as set forth in Section 1(a)(ii).

 (ii) The Company and the Board shall take all necessary and desirable actions such that, as of the Effective Date, Ransom
Langford shall be appointed as a Director. 
 (iii) The Company will, as promptly as practicable, use its best efforts to
take all necessary and desirable actions (including, without limitation, calling special meetings of the Board and the stockholders and recommending, supporting and soliciting proxies) so that an Investor Director serves on the Board at all times,
subject to the Investor having designated a Nominee and providing the information set forth in Section 1(a)(i). 







 (iv) The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, use
its best efforts to promptly take all actions necessary to ensure that: (i) the Nominee is included in the Board’s slate of nominees to the stockholders of the Company for each election of Directors; and (ii) the Nominee is included
in the proxy statement prepared by management of the Company in connection with soliciting proxies for every meeting of the stockholders of the Company called with respect to the election of members of the Board, and at every adjournment or
postponement thereof, and on every action or approval by written consent of the stockholders of the Company or the Board with respect to the election of members of the Board. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Investor shall not be
entitled to designate any Nominee pursuant to Section 1.1(a)(i) to the Board if the Board or the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reasonably determines that (i) the election of such Nominee to the Board would cause the Company
to not be in compliance with applicable law (but, if the compliance relates to the lack of independence of the proposed Nominee, only, after first increasing the size of the Board and appointing any necessary independent Directors to fill such newly
created vacancies) or (ii) such Nominee has been involved in any of the events enumerated in Item 2(d) or (e) of Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act or Item 401(f) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act (to the extent
material to his or her ability or integrity to serve as a Director) or is subject to any order, decree or judgment of any Governmental Entity prohibiting service as a director of any public company. In any such case described in clauses (i) or
(ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, upon receipt of written notice from the Company stating the reason for such determination, which notice shall not be given more than three (3) days after receipt by the Company of notice of the
designation of the Nominee and receipt of the information regarding such Nominee referenced in Section 1(a)(i), the Investor shall withdraw the designation of such proposed Nominee and be permitted to designate a replacement therefor
(which replacement Nominee will also be subject to the requirements of this Section 1(a)(iv). Subject to applicable NYSE listing standards (or other applicable requirements of any relevant stock exchange on which the Company’s
equity securities are listed) or applicable law, in no event shall any Nominee’s actual or potential lack of independence resulting from its relationship with the Investor and the Investor’s Affiliates be considered to disqualify such
Nominee from being a member of the Board pursuant to this Section 1(a). If requested by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Investor shall consult with the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee regarding its potential
Nominee prior to designating any Nominee pursuant to Section 1(a)(i) and shall provide to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee such information about the Nominee as shall be reasonably requested by the Nominating and Governance
Committee, including information of the type that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee requests from the other directors of the Company. 

(v) If a vacancy occurs because of the death, disability, disqualification, resignation, or removal of an Investor Director or
for any other reason, the Investor shall be entitled to designate such person’s successor, and the Company will, as promptly as practicable following such designation, use its best efforts to take all necessary and desirable actions, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, within its control such that such vacancy shall be filled with such successor Nominee. 

  
 2 








 (vi) If a Nominee is not elected because of such Nominee’s death,
disability, disqualification, withdrawal as a nominee or for any other reason, the Investor shall be entitled to designate promptly another Nominee and the Company will take all necessary and desirable actions within its control such that the
director position for which such Nominee was nominated shall not be filled pending such designation or the size of the Board shall be increased by one and such vacancy shall be filled with such successor Nominee as promptly as practicable following
such designation. 
 (vii) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the request of any Investor Director, the Company
shall enter into an indemnification agreement with such Investor Director, in the form entered into with the other members of the Board. The Company shall pay the reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Investor Director in
connection with his or her services provided to or on behalf of the Company, including attending meetings or events attended explicitly on behalf of the Company at the Company’s request; provided that such payments shall be consistent with the
Company’s policy for paying such expenses of other directors of the Company. 
 (viii) The Company shall
(i) purchase directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in an amount determined by the Board to be reasonable and customary and (ii) for so long as an Investor Director serves as a Director of the Company, maintain such
coverage with respect to such Director; provided that upon removal or resignation of such Director for any reason, the Company shall take all actions reasonably necessary to extend such directors’ and officers’ liability insurance
coverage for a period of not less than six (6) years from any such event in respect of any act or omission occurring at or prior to such event. 

(ix) For so long as any Investor Director serves as a Director of the Company, the Company shall not amend, alter or repeal any
right to indemnification or exculpation covering or benefiting any Director nominated pursuant to this Agreement as and to the extent consistent with applicable law, including but not limited to Article Six of the Certificate of Incorporation of the
Company and Article X of the Bylaws (whether such right is contained in the Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or another document) (except to the extent such amendment or alteration permits the Company to provide broader indemnification or
exculpation rights on a retroactive basis than permitted prior thereto). 
 (x) The Investor Director shall recuse himself or
herself from any decisions of the Board in accordance with applicable law. 
 (xi) Upon the Investor Amount being less than
50%, the Investor shall cause any Investor Director to tender his or her resignation from the Board. 

  
 3 








 (b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, from and after the Effective Date and
for so long as the Investor Amount is at least 10%, but less than 50%, the Investor may designate one Board observer (a “Board Observer”) to attend and participate in all meetings of the Board in a non-voting capacity. In
connection therewith, the Company shall simultaneously give such Board Observer copies of all notices, consents, minutes and other materials, financial or otherwise, which the Company provides to the Board, provided, however, that if the
Board Observer does not, upon the request of the Company, before attending any meetings of the Board, execute and deliver to the Company an agreement to abide by all Company policies applicable to members of the Board and a confidentiality agreement
reasonably acceptable to the Company, the Board Observer may be excluded from access to any material or meeting or portion thereof if the Board determines in good faith that such exclusion is reasonably necessary to protect highly confidential
proprietary information of the Company or confidential proprietary information of third parties that the Company is required to hold in confidence, or for other similar reasons. The Investor may recall the Board Observer and designate a replacement
Board Observer at any time. 
 Section 2. Information and Access. Following the Effective Date until the Investor Amount is no
longer at least 10%, the Company agrees to provide the Investor with all information that would be provided to the Investor Director if the Investor had a right to an Investor Director pursuant to Section 1 hereof, including the following: 

(a) within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, (i) an audited, consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its
subsidiaries as of the end of such fiscal year and (ii) audited, consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in shareholders’ equity of the Company and its subsidiaries for such fiscal
year; provided that this requirement shall be deemed to have been satisfied if on or prior to such date the Company files its annual report on Form 10-K for the applicable fiscal year with the SEC; 

(b) within 45 days after the end of each of the first three quarters of each fiscal year of the Company, (i) an unaudited, consolidated
balance sheet of the Company and its subsidiaries as of the end of such fiscal quarter and (ii) consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income and cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries for such fiscal
quarter; provided that this requirement shall be deemed to have been satisfied if on or prior to such date the Company files its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the applicable fiscal quarter with the SEC; and 

(c) access, to the extent requested by the Investor, to the offices and the properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, including its and
their books and records, all upon reasonable notice and at such times and as often as the Investor may reasonably request; provided that any access pursuant to this Section 2(c) shall be conducted in a manner
as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of the business of the Company and its subsidiaries; 
 provided that, the Company shall not
be obligated to provide such access or materials to the Investor to the extent the Company determines, in its reasonable judgment, that doing so would (A) materially violate any applicable law, judgment or contract or obligation of
confidentiality 

  
 4 








 
owing to a third party, (B) jeopardize the protection of an attorney-client privilege, attorney work product protection or other similar legal privilege, (C) be materially adverse to
the interests of the Company or any of its subsidiaries in any pending or threatened demand, action, suit, countersuit, arbitration, inquiry, proceeding or investigation by or before any Governmental Entity or any arbitration or mediation tribunal,
or (D) expose the Company to risk of liability for disclosure of personal information; provided that, in each case, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the maximum access such that clauses
(A) through (D) do not apply. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2, the Investor shall have the right to waive its right to receive information and/or access under
this Section 2 for such period of time as the Investor may specify and, upon receipt of written notice of such waiver, the Company agrees to no longer provide the Investor with information and/or access for the duration of the
period so specified. 
 Section 3. Registration Rights. 

(a) Shelf Registration. 

(i) Filing. The Company shall file prior to the one year anniversary of the Effective Date, a Registration Statement for
a Shelf Registration on Form S-3 (the “Form S-3 Shelf”) or, if the Company is ineligible to use a Form S-3 Shelf, a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form S-1 (the “Form S-1 Shelf,”
and together with the Form S-3 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration), the “Shelf”) covering the resale of the Registrable Securities on a delayed or continuous basis. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to
cause the Shelf to become effective by the one year anniversary of the Effective Date. The Shelf shall provide for the resale of Registrable Securities from time to time, and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and
requested by, the Investor. The Company shall maintain the Shelf in accordance with the terms hereof, and shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements as may be necessary to keep such
Shelf effective and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities. In the event the Company files a Form S-1 Shelf, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to
convert the Form S-1 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration) to a Form S-3 Shelf as soon as practicable after the Company is eligible to use Form S-3. 

(ii) Subsequent Shelf Registration. If any Shelf ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any
time while Registrable Securities are still outstanding, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable cause such Shelf to again become effective under the Securities Act (including obtaining
the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable amend such Shelf in a manner reasonably expected to result in the
withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf or file an additional registration statement as a Shelf Registration (a “Subsequent Shelf Registration”) registering the resale from time to time by
the Investor thereof of all securities that are Registrable Securities as of the time of such filing. If a Subsequent Shelf Registration is filed, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause such


  
 5 








 
Subsequent Shelf Registration to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the filing thereof (it being agreed that the Subsequent Shelf
Registration shall be an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement if the Company is a Well-Known Seasoned Issuer) and (ii) keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration continuously effective and usable until there are no longer any Registrable
Securities. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be on Form S-3 to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be on another appropriate form and shall provide for the
registration of such Registrable Securities for resale by the Investor in accordance with any reasonable method of distribution elected by the Investor. 

(iii) Requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns. At any time and from time to time after the Shelf has been declared
effective by the SEC, the Investor may request to sell all or any portion of its Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering that is registered pursuant to the Shelf (each, an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”);
provided that the Company shall only be obligated to effect an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if such offering shall include either (x) securities with a total offering price (including piggyback shares and before deduction of underwriting
discounts) reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $50 million or (y) all remaining Registrable Securities. All requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns shall be made by giving written notice to the Company (the “Demand
Shelf Takedown Notice”). Each Demand Shelf Takedown Notice shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the expected price range (net of underwriting discounts
and commissions) of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown. The Investor shall have the right to select the investment banker(s) and manager(s) to administer the offering (which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment
banks), subject to the Company’s prior approval which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. 
 (b) Demand
Registration. 
 (i) Requests for Registration. At any time after the Effective Date, the Investor may request
(i) registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of the Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration (a “Short-Form Registration”), if available, and (ii) registration
under the Securities Act of all or any portion of the Registrable Securities held by such Requesting Holder on Form S-1 or similar long-form registration (a “Long-Form Registration”) if Short-Form Registration is not
available (any registration under this Section 3(b), a “Demand Registration”); provided, that the Company shall only be obligated to effect an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if such offering shall include
either (x) securities with a total offering price (including piggyback shares and before deduction of underwriting discounts) reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $50 million or (y) all remaining Registrable Securities. The
Investor may request that any offering conducted under a Long-Form Registration or a Short-Form Registration be underwritten. All requests for Demand Registrations shall be made by giving written notice to the Company (the “Demand
Registration Notice”). Each Demand Registration Notice shall specify (i) whether such Demand Registration shall be an underwritten offering, (ii) the approximate number of 

  
 6 








 
Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Demand Registration and (iii) the expected price range (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) of such Demand Registration. The
Investor shall have the right to select the investment banker(s) and manager(s) to administer the offering (which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks), subject to the approval of the Company, which shall not
be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. 
 (ii) Demand Registration Effectiveness. A registration shall not
count as one of the permitted Demand Registrations until both (i) it has become effective (unless such Demand Registration has not become effective due solely to the fault of the Investor) and (ii) the Investor is able to register and sell
pursuant to such registration at least 80% of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration either at the time of the registration or within 90 days thereafter; provided that a Demand Registration which is withdrawn
at the sole request of the Investor will count as a Demand Registration unless the Company is reimbursed by the Investor for all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Company in connection with such registration, including
reasonable attorney and accounting fees. 
 (iii) Short-Form Registrations. Demand Registrations shall be Short-Form
Registrations whenever the Company is permitted to use an applicable short form. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to make Short-Form Registrations on Form S-3 (or any successor form) available for the sale of Registrable Securities.

 (iv) Restrictions on Demand Registrations. The Investor shall be entitled to request up to three Demand
Registrations. In addition, the Company shall not be obligated to effect more than two Demand Registrations in any twelve-month period. 

(c) Piggyback Takedowns. Whenever the Company proposes to register any of its securities, including a registration pursuant to any
registration rights agreement between Company and holders of its securities (a “Piggyback Registration”), or proposes to offer any of its securities pursuant to a registration statement in an underwritten offering under the
Securities Act (together with a Piggyback Registration, a “Piggyback Takedown”), the Company shall give prompt written notice to the Investor of its intention to effect such Piggyback Takedown. In the case of a Piggyback
Takedown that is an underwritten offering under a shelf registration statement, such notice shall be given not less than ten Business Days prior to the expected date of commencement of marketing efforts for such Piggyback Takedown. In the case of a
Piggyback Takedown that is an underwritten offering under a registration statement that is not a shelf registration statement, such notice shall be given not less than ten Business Days prior to the expected date of filing of such registration
statement. The Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 3(d) below, include in such Piggyback Takedown, as applicable, all Registrable Securities requested to be included by the Investor within five Business Days after sending
the Company’s notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein: (i) the Company may determine not to proceed with any Piggyback Takedown upon written notice to the Investor; provided, however, that nothing in this
clause (i) shall impair the right of the Investor to request that such registration be effected pursuant to Section 3(a) or 3(b); and (ii) the Investor may withdraw its request for inclusion by giving written notice to
the Company of its intention to withdraw that registration; provided, however, that the withdrawal shall be 

  
 7 








 
irrevocable and after making the withdrawal, the Investor shall no longer have any right to include its Registrable Securities in that Piggyback Takedown. If any Piggyback Takedown is an
underwritten offering, the Company will have the sole right to select the investment banker(s) and manager(s), acceptable to the Investor, for the offering. 

(d) Priority. 

(i) Priority on Primary Offerings and Offerings Initiated by Holders of Other Registration Rights. If the Company
determines, and if ratified in writing, after consultation with the managing underwriter in any underwritten Piggyback Takedown that was not initiated by the Investor pursuant to this Agreement, that less than all of the Registrable Securities
requested to be included in such underwritten offering can be sold in an orderly manner within a price range acceptable to the Company or the holders of the Company’s securities demanding such Piggyback Takedown pursuant to registration rights
granted to other holders of the Company’s securities, as applicable, then the Company shall include in such underwritten Piggyback Registration the number which can be so sold in the following order of priority: 

(A) first, the securities the Company and/or the holders of the Company’s securities demanding such Piggyback
Takedown pursuant to registration rights granted to such holders propose to sell; 
 (B) second, the Registrable
Securities requested to be included in such Piggyback Registration by the Investor; and 
 (C) third, other securities
requested to be included in such underwritten Piggyback Takedown. 
 (ii) Priority on Offerings Initiated by the
Investor. In any underwritten offering initiated by the Investor pursuant to this Agreement if the Investor determines, after consultation with the Company and the managing underwriter in such offering, that less than all of the securities of
the Company requested to be included in such underwritten offering, other than Registrable Securities, can be sold in an orderly manner within a price range acceptable to the Investor, then the Company shall include in such underwritten offering the
number which can be so sold in the following order of priority: 
 (A) first, the Registrable Securities requested to
be included in accordance with this Agreement by the Investor; 
 (B) second, the securities the Company and the
holders entitled to participate in such Piggyback Takedown pursuant to registration rights granted to other holders of the Company’s securities, pro rata on the basis of the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such holders; and

 (C) third, other securities requested to be included in such underwritten offering. 

  
 8 








 (e) Company Undertakings. Whenever Registrable Securities are registered or sold pursuant
to this Agreement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such Registrable Securities as soon as reasonably practicable in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and
pursuant thereto the Company shall as expeditiously as possible: 
 (i) before filing a Registration Statement or Prospectus
or any amendments or supplements thereto, at the Company’s expense, furnish to the Investor copies of all such documents, other than documents that are incorporated by reference, proposed to be filed and such other documents reasonably

 (ii)
notify the Investor of the effectiveness of each Registration Statement and 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

such other documents as such seller or such managing underwriters may reasonably request including in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller, and upon request, a copy of any and all transmittal letters
or other correspondence to or received from, the SEC or any other Governmental Entity relating to such offer; 
 (iv) use its

necessary to make the statements in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus relating thereto not misleading or otherwise requires the making of any changes in such Registration Statement, Prospectus, Free Writing
Prospectus or document, and, at the request of the Investor, the Company shall promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus, furnish a reasonable number of copies of such supplement or amendment to the

 (g) Indemnification and Contribution. 

(i) Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Investor and its Affiliates,
directors, officers, employees, members, managers and agents and each Person who controls the Investor within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any
losses, claims, expenses, damages and liabilities or whatever kind (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending same and the cost of enforcing any right to indemnification hereunder)
(collectively, “Losses”) to which they or any of them may become subject insofar as such Losses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (x) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in a Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or the Disclosure Package, or any preliminary, final or summary Prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus included in any such Registration Statement,
or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the 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
(y) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other federal law, any state or foreign securities law, or any rule or regulation promulgated under of the foregoing laws, relating to the offer
or sale of the Registrable Securities, and in any such case, the Company agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating, preparing or
defending any such Loss, claim, damage, liability, action or investigation (whether or not the indemnified party is a party to any proceeding); provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any case to the extent that any such
Loss arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information relating to the Investor furnished to the Company by
or on behalf of the Investor specifically for inclusion therein, including any notice and questionnaire. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have. 

(ii) Indemnification by the Investor. The Investor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each of its
Affiliates, directors, employees, members, managers and agents and each Person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and
all Losses to which they or any of them may become subject insofar as such Losses arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement as originally filed or in any
amendment thereof, or in the Disclosure Package or any Investor Free Writing Prospectus, preliminary, final or summary Prospectus included in any such Registration Statement, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are
based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent, that any such untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission is contained in any written information relating to the Investor furnished to the Company by or on behalf the Investor specifically for inclusion therein; provided, however, that the total
amount to be indemnified by the Investor pursuant to this Section 3(h)(ii) shall be limited to the net proceeds (after deducting underwriters’ discounts and commissions) received by such the Investor in the offering to which such
Registration Statement or Prospectus relates; 

  
 14 








 
provided further that the Investor shall not be liable in any case to the extent that prior to the filing of any such Registration Statement or Disclosure Package, or any amendment thereof or
supplement thereto, it has furnished in writing to the Company, information expressly for use in, and within a reasonable period of time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or Disclosure Package, or any amendment thereof or
supplement thereto which corrected or made not misleading information previously provided to the Company. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Investor may otherwise have. 

(iii) Notification. If any Person shall be entitled to indemnification under this Section 3(h) (each, an
“Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall give prompt notice to the party required to provide indemnification (each, an “Indemnifying Party”) of any claim or of the commencement of any
proceeding as to which indemnity is sought. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, exercisable by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party as promptly as reasonably practicable after the receipt of written notice from such Indemnified
Party of such claim or proceeding, to assume, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, the defense of any such claim or litigation, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to such
Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party will not (so long as it shall continue to have the right to defend, contest, litigate and settle the matter in question in accordance with this
Section 3(h)(iii)) be liable to such Indemnified Party hereunder for any legal expenses and other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that an
Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such claim or litigation, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless the Indemnifying Party shall have failed within a
reasonable period of time to assume such defense and the Indemnified Party is or would reasonably be expected to be materially prejudiced by such delay. The failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall relieve an
Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 3(h) only to the extent that the failure to give such notice is materially prejudicial or harmful to such Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such action. No Indemnifying
Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the prior written consent of each Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), consent to entry of 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. The indemnity agreements contained in this
Section 3(h) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any claim, loss, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. The indemnification set forth in this Section 3(h) shall be in addition to any other indemnification rights or agreements that an Indemnified Party may have. An Indemnifying Party who is not entitled to,
or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any
Indemnified Party a conflict of interest may exist between such Indemnified Party and any other Indemnified Parties with respect to such claim. 

  
 15 








 (iv) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this
Section 3(h) is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party, other than pursuant to its terms, with respect to any Losses or action referred to therein, then, subject to the limitations contained
in this Section 3(h), the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses or action in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other, in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses or action, as well as any other
relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any
untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made (or omitted) by, or 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 any such action, statement or omission. The Company and the Investor agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Section 3(h)(iv) was determined solely upon pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding sentence of this
Section 3(h)(iv). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount the Investor will be obligated to contribute pursuant to this Section 3(h)(iv) will be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds received by the Investor in
respect of the Registrable Securities sold pursuant to the registration statement which gives rise to such obligation to contribute. 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. 
 (h) Rule 144. With a
view to making available to the Investor the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, the Company covenants that it will (x) make available information necessary to comply with Rule 144, if available with respect to resales of
the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, at all times, and (y) take such further action as the Investor may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable it to sell Registrable Securities without
registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (if available with respect to resales of the Registrable Securities), as such rule may be amended from time to
time. Upon the reasonable request of the Investor, the Company will deliver to it a written statement as to whether it has complied with such information requirements, and, if not, the specific reasons for non-compliance. 

Section 4. Preemptive Rights. 

(a) For the purposes of this Section 4, “Excluded Issuance” shall mean (i) the issuance of
shares of any Equity Securities (including upon exercise of options) to directors, officers, employees, consultants or other agents of the Company as approved by the Board in connection with their employment or performance of services, (ii) the
issuance of any Equity Securities in connection with any “business combination” (as defined in the rules and regulations 

  
 16 








 
promulgated by the SEC) or otherwise in connection with bona fide acquisitions of securities or substantially all of the assets of another Person, business unit, division or business, in each
case, to the sellers in such transaction as consideration thereof, (iii) the issuance of any securities pursuant to the conversion, redemption or exchange of Preferred Stock issued to the Investor and (iv) the issuance of any shares of a
subsidiary of the Company to the Company or a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. 
 (b) For so long as the Investor Amount is at least
50%, if the Company proposes to issue Equity Securities of any kind, other than in an Excluded Issuance, then the Company shall: 

(i) give written notice to the Investor no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the closing of such issuance or, if
the Company reasonably expects such issuance to be completed in less than five (5) Business Days, such shorter period (which shall be as given as promptly as commercially practicable but in any event not less than three (3) Business Days
prior to such closing), setting forth in reasonable detail (A) the designation and all of the material terms and provisions of the securities proposed to be issued (the “Proposed Securities”), including, to the extent
applicable, the voting powers, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof and interest rate and maturity, (B) the price and other terms of the proposed
sale of such securities and (C) the amount of such securities proposed to be issued; provided that, following the delivery of such notice, the Company shall deliver to the Investor any such information the Investor may reasonably
request in order to evaluate the proposed issuance, except that, in connection with a public offering, the Company shall not be required to deliver any information that has not been or will not be provided or otherwise made available to the proposed
purchasers of the Proposed Securities; and 
 (ii) offer to issue and sell to the Investor, on such terms as the Proposed
Securities are issued and upon full payment by the Investor, a portion of the Proposed Securities equal to a percentage determined by dividing: (x) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned, on an as-converted basis, by the
Investor, by (y) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of the Proposed Securities, on an as-converted basis. 

(c) The Investor will have the option exercisable by written notice to the Company, to accept the Company’s offer and commit to purchase
any or all of the Equity Securities offered to be sold, which notice must be given on or prior to the Business Day immediately prior to the date of the closing of the issuance of such Equity Securities (or, if notice of all such terms has not been
given prior to the Business Day immediately prior to the such closing date, at any time prior to such closing date) (the failure of the Investor to respond within such time period shall be deemed a waiver of its rights under
this Section 4 with respect to the applicable issuance of Equity Securities). Such notice to the Company shall constitute a binding commitment by the Investor to purchase the amount of Equity Securities so specified at the
price and other terms set forth in the Company’s notice to the Investor. The closing of the exercise of such subscription right shall take place simultaneously with the closing of the sale of the Proposed Securities giving rise to such
subscription right; provided, however, that the closing of 

  
 17 








 
any purchase by the Investor may be extended beyond the closing of the sale of the Proposed Securities giving rise to such preemptive right to the extent necessary to (i) obtain required
approvals from any Governmental Entity or (ii) permit the Investor to receive proceeds from calling capital pursuant to commitments made by its (or its Affiliated investment funds’) limited partners. Upon the expiration of the offering
period described above, the Company will be free to sell such Proposed Securities that the Investor has not elected to purchase during the 120 days following such expiration on terms and conditions no more favorable to the purchasers thereof than
those offered to the Investor in the notice delivered in accordance with this Section 4. Any Proposed Securities offered or sold by the Company after such 120-day period must be reoffered to issue or sell to the Investor pursuant to
this Section 4. 
 (d) The election by the Investor not to exercise its subscription rights under
this Section 4 in any one instance shall not affect its right as to any subsequent proposed issuance. 
 (e) If the
proposed issuance by the Company of securities which gave rise to the exercise by the Investor of its preemptive rights pursuant to this Section 4 shall be terminated or abandoned by the Company without the issuance of any securities,
then the purchase rights of the Investor pursuant to this Section 4 shall also terminate as to such proposed issuance by the Company (but not any subsequent or future issuance), and any funds in respect thereof paid to the Company by the
Investor in respect thereof shall be refunded in full. 
 (f) In the case of an issuance subject to this Section 4 for
consideration in whole or in part other than cash, including securities acquired in exchange therefor (other than securities by their terms so exchangeable), the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair market value thereof as
reasonably determined in good faith by the Board. 
 Section 5. Transfer Restrictions. 

(a) During the period commencing on the Effective Date and continuing until the calendar date that is one year following the Effective Date,
the Investor shall not Transfer any Preferred Stock or any securities into which Preferred Stock is convertible into, redeemable for or exchangeable for Preferred Stock, including Common Stock, whether now owned or hereinafter acquired, owned
directly by the Investor or with respect to which the Investor has beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the SEC (collectively, the “Restricted Shares”), except in the event the Company otherwise agrees by
written consent or pursuant to a Transfer permitted by Section 5(b). Following the expiration of the one-year period referenced in the preceding sentence, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5(b), the Investor may
not Transfer any Preferred Stock or any securities into which Preferred Stock is convertible into, redeemable for or exchangeable for Preferred Stock, including Common Stock, to (i) any Competitor or (ii) any Person that would, to the
Investor’s knowledge, hold 25% or more of the Common Stock (on an as-converted basis) as a result of such transfer. 
 (b)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 5, the Investor may Transfer Restricted Shares (i) as a bona fide gift; (ii) to any trust or entity wholly owned by one or more trusts for the direct or
indirect benefit of (A) the Investor or its stockholders, partners, members or beneficiaries or (B) of any individual related to the 

  
 18 








 
stockholders, partners, members or beneficiaries of the Investor, by blood, marriage or adoption and not more remote than first cousin; (iii) to any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Investor,
or to the Affiliates, stockholders, partners, members or beneficiaries of the Investor; or (iv) pursuant to any take-over bid, offer, acquisition, sale or merger involving the Company involving all or substantially all of the Common Stock;
provided that in each case such distributees or transferees agree to be bound by the terms and restrictions set forth in this Agreement. 

(c) In connection with any Shelf Takedown, the Company shall not effect any public sale or distribution of its Equity Securities, or any
securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities (except pursuant to registrations on Form S-8 or Form S-4 under the Securities Act), and shall cause its officers and directors not to Transfer any Equity Securities,
except in the event the underwriters managing the Demand Registration or Shelf Takedown consent to such shorter period, during the seven days prior to and the 90-day period beginning on the date of pricing of such Demand Registration or Shelf
Takedown or such other period provided in the underwriting, placement or similar agreement executed in connection with such Demand Registration or Shelf Takedown. 

Section 6. Additional Agreements. 

(a) For so long as the Investor Amount is at least 50%, the Company shall not adopt any plan of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
Company or file any voluntary petition for bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings unless holders of at least a majority the outstanding Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class, consent thereto. 

(b) The Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to hold a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders to approve (i) the
conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock into Series A Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock or (ii) the issuance of additional shares of Series A Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock pursuant to the Certificate of Designations, Preferences
and Rights of such series, as applicable, within 120 days following the Effective Date and the proxy statement related to such special meeting will include the Board’s recommendation that the stockholders of the Company vote in favor of such
proposal. If the stockholders of the Company do not approve such conversion, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain stockholder approval at the next annual meeting of stockholders and each subsequent annual meeting thereafter.

 (c) At all times while the Investor Amount is greater than 10%, without the prior approval of the Company, or as otherwise expressly
permitted by this Agreement, the Investor shall not, directly or indirectly, and shall cause its Affiliates not to acquire, offer to acquire, agree to acquire or make a public proposal to acquire, by purchase or otherwise, any Equity Securities of
the Company or any of its subsidiaries, any securities convertible into or exchangeable for any Equity Securities of the Company, or any right to vote or to direct the voting of any Equity Securities of the Company; provided that the
restrictions in this clause (i) shall not apply to (x) purchases or acquisitions permitted by Section 5(b), (y) acquisitions of Equity Securities of the Company issued in connection with stock dividends,
stock splits, recapitalizations or similar transactions (including any Equity Securities issued as a dividend, coupon or other distribution on shares of the Preferred Stock) and (z) issuances by the Company of Equity Securities of the Company
or options, warrants or other rights to acquire Equity Securities of the Company (or the exercise thereof) to any Director, as compensation for his or her membership on the Board.

 Section 11. No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement shall be
deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any party. 

Section 12. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended or shall be construed to
confer upon, or give to, any person or entity other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns any remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement or any terms, covenants or conditions hereof, and all of the terms,
covenants, conditions, promises and agreements contained in this Agreement shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. 

Section 13. Further Assurances. Each of the parties hereby agrees that it will hereafter execute and deliver any further document,
agreement, instruments of assignment, transfer or conveyance as may be necessary or desirable to effectuate the purposes hereof. 

Section 14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, and may be delivered by means of facsimile
or electronic transmission in portable document format, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and shall be binding upon the party who executed the same, but all of such counterparts shall constitute the same agreement. 

Section 15. Governing Law. All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of
this Agreement and the exhibits and schedules hereto shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State
of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York. 

Section 16. Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably waive any and all rights to trial by jury in any
legal proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement. Any action or proceeding whatsoever between the parties hereto relating to this Agreement shall be tried in a court of competent jurisdiction by a judge sitting without a jury. 

Section 17. Complete Agreement; Inconsistent Agreements. This Agreement represents the complete agreement between the parties
hereto as to all matters covered hereby, and supersedes any prior agreements or understandings between the parties. 
 Section 18.
Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein
shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The
parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

 Section 19. Amendment and Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, no modification, amendment or waiver of any provision
of this Agreement shall be effective against the Company or the Investor unless such modification is approved in writing by the Company 

  
 26 








 
and the Investor. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed as a waiver of such provisions and shall not affect the right of such
party thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. 
 Section 20. Termination.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Investor Amount ceases to be equal to or greater than 10%, then this Agreement shall expire and terminate automatically; provided, however, that Sections 1(a)(vii),
1(a)(viii), 3 (for so long as any Registrable Securities remain), 5(c), 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17, 18 and 19 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement.
