and that such Owned Shares are not currently subject to any voting agreement or proxy. 
 2. The undersigned agrees that,
prior to the termination of this letter agreement, the undersigned will not sell, gift or otherwise transfer or dispose of, or contract to sell, gift or otherwise transfer or dispose of, any of the Owned Shares, any interest in any of the Owned
Shares or voting rights with respect to the Owned Shares. 
 3. At the Stockholders Meeting (or at any subsequent meeting of
the stockholders of the Company called thereafter pursuant to the Merger Agreement or the Securities Purchase Agreement), the undersigned shall (i) appear in person or by proxy at such meeting or otherwise cause the Owned Shares to be counted
as present at such meeting for purposes of establishing a quorum, (ii) vote (or cause to be voted) the Owned Shares to approve (1) the Company’s consummation of the applicable transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement,

at law or in equity. The undersigned agrees and acknowledges that each of the Enforcement Parties are intended third party beneficiaries of this letter agreement and any of the Enforcement Parties have standing to enforce the provisions hereof
against the parties hereto as if the Enforcement Parties were each party hereto. Should suit be brought in connection with this letter agreement, the substantially prevailing party shall be entitled to recover any of its attorneys’ fees,

(i) the later of the termination of the Merger Agreement pursuant to its terms and the termination of the Securities Purchase Agreement pursuant to its terms or (ii) the date that is five (5) days following the Stockholders Meeting at
which the Transaction Proposals are approved in accordance with the rules and regulations of The NASDAQ Stock Market, LLC. 

10. This letter agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without
giving effect to the conflicts of laws principles that would otherwise apply thereunder. 
 11. This letter agreement may be
executed by the parties hereto in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Each party agrees that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby may be entered into electronically and that any electronic signature, whether digital or encrypted, used by any party is intended to authenticate this Agreement and to have the same force and effect as a manual signature. For purposes of this
Agreement, an electronic signature means any electronic symbol, designation or process attached to or logically associated with a record, contract, document or instrument and adopted by a party with the intent to sign such record, contract, document
or instrument. 
 12. In the event anyone or more of the provisions contained herein, or the application thereof in any
circumstance, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not be affected or impaired, and such
unreasonable, unlawful or unenforceable provision shall be interpreted, revised or applied in the manner that renders it lawful and enforceable to the fullest extent possible under law.
