 ARTICLE 2 
 REGISTRATION RIGHTS 
  

	Section 2.1	Demand Registration 

  

	 	(a)	Request for Registration 

  

	 	(i)	 At any time after the earlier of the consummation of a Qualified Public Offering or sixty (60) days after the date of this Agreement, any Holder
or group of Holders that, together with its or their Affiliates, holds more than fifteen percent (15%) of the Registrable Shares (collectively, a “Demanding Stockholder”) shall have the right to require the Company to file a
registration statement on Form S-1 or S-3 or any similar form or successor to such forms under the Securities Act, or any other appropriate form under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act for a public offering of all or part of its Registrable
Shares (a “Demand Registration”), by delivering to the Company written notice stating that such right is being exercised, naming the Demanding Stockholder(s) whose Registrable Shares are to be included in such registration,
specifying the aggregate number of the Demanding Stockholder’s Registrable Shares to be included in such registration and, subject to Section 2.1(c) hereof, describing the intended method of distribution thereof to the extent then
known (a 



  
 5 









	 	
“Demand Request”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any Demand Request involving an underwritten offering that is made prior to the earlier of the consummation of a
Qualified Public Offering or two (2) years after the date of this Agreement, the term “Demanding Stockholder” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the preceding sentence, except that the reference therein to “more than
fifteen percent (15%)” shall be deemed to be a reference to “fifty percent (50%) or more.” The Demanding Stockholders hereunder shall collectively have the right to require up to three (3) Long-Form Registrations and an
unlimited number of Short-Form Registrations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a Holder together with its Affiliates holds 25% or more of the Common Stock held by such Holder as of the date hereof, then such Holder shall also have
the right to require one (1) Demand Registration as a Demanding Stockholder. The number of Demand Registrations in the form of a Shelf Registration (as defined below) shall be unlimited. 


 

	 	(ii)	Subject to Section 2.1(f), the Company shall file the registration statement in respect of a Demand Registration as soon as practicable and, in any event,
within ninety (90) days after receiving a Demand Request (the “Required Filing Date”) on any form for which the Company then qualifies, and which form shall be available for the sale of the Registrable Shares in accordance with
the intended methods of distribution thereof, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to be declared effective by the SEC as promptly as practicable after such filing; provided that: 


 

	 	(A)	other than a Shelf Registration, the Company shall not be obligated to effect a Demand Registration pursuant to this Section 2.1(a) within ninety (90)
days after the effective date of a previous Demand Registration; and 

  

	 	(B)	the Company shall not be obligated to effect a Demand Registration pursuant to this Section 2.1(a) unless the Demand Request is for a number of Registrable
Shares with an expected market value that is equal to at least (x) $15 million as of the date of such Demand Request or is for one hundred percent of the Demanding Stockholder’s Registrable Shares with respect to any Long-Form Registration
or (y) $5 million as of the date of such Demand Request with respect to any Short-Form Registration. 

  

	 	(b)	Shelf Registration. 

 With
respect to any Demand Registration, subject to the availability of a registration statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form), the Company shall, upon written request from a Demanding Stockholder, agree to effect a registration of the Common Stock
in a continuous offering pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule) (a “Shelf Registration”), and, thereafter, 

  
 6 








 
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof. 

 

	 	(c)	Selection of Underwriters 

 At
the request of a majority of the Demanding Stockholder(s) making a Demand Request, the offering of Registrable Shares pursuant to such Demand Registration, including pursuant to a Shelf Registration that is a Demand Registration, shall be in the
form of a “firm commitment” underwritten offering. The Demanding Stockholders making such Demand Request shall select (i) the investment banking firm or firms to manage the underwritten offering and (ii) counsel to the
Requesting Holders; provided that, in the case of clause (i), such selection shall be subject to the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. No Holder may participate in any underwritten
registration pursuant to Section 2.1(a) unless such Holder (x) agrees to sell such Holder’s Registrable Shares on the basis provided in any underwriting agreement described above as agreed upon by the Company and accepts the
underwriters selected in accordance with the procedures described in this Section 2 and (y) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required
under the terms of such underwriting agreements; provided that no such Holder shall be required to make any representations or warranties in connection with any such registration other than representations and warranties as to (i) such
Holder’s ownership of his, her or its Registrable Shares to be transferred free and clear of all liens, claims, and encumbrances created by such Holder, (ii) such Holder’s power and authority to effect such transfer, and
(iii) such matters pertaining to such Holder’s compliance with securities laws with respect to the Registrable Shares as may be reasonably requested; provided, further that any obligation of such Holder to indemnify any
Person pursuant to any such underwriting agreement shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders selling Registrable Shares, and such liability shall be limited to the net amount received by such Holder from the sale of his, her or its
Registrable Shares pursuant to such registration (which amounts shall include the amount of cash or the fair market value of any assets, including Common Stock, received in exchange for the sale or exchange of such Registrable Shares or that are the
subject of a distribution), and the relative liability of each such Holder shall be in proportion to such net amounts; provided, further that this Section 2.1(c) shall not require any Holder of Registrable Shares to agree to any
lock up agreement, market standoff agreement or holdback agreement other than those permitted by Section 2.4 hereof. 
  

	 	(d)	Rights of Nonrequesting Holders 


Upon receipt of any Demand Request, the Company shall promptly (but in any event within ten (10) days) give written notice of such
proposed Demand Registration to all other Holders of Registrable Shares, who shall have the right, exercisable by written notice to the Company within fifteen (15) days of their 

  
 7 








 
receipt of the Company’s notice, to elect to include in such Demand Registration such portion of their Registrable Shares as they may request, so long as such Registrable Shares are proposed
to be disposed of in accordance with the method or methods of disposition requested pursuant to this Section 2.1. All Holders requesting to have their Registrable Shares included in a Demand Registration in accordance with the preceding
sentence together with all Demanding Stockholders shall be deemed to be “Requesting Holders” for purposes herein. 
  

	 	(e)	Priority on Demand Registrations 


No securities to be sold for the account of any Person (including the Company), other than a Requesting Holder, shall be included in a
Demand Registration if the managing underwriters (or, in an offering that is not underwritten, a nationally recognized investment bank) shall advise the Company and the Requesting Holders in writing that the aggregate amount of such securities
requested to be included in any offering pursuant to such Demand Registration would have an adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of any such offering, based on market conditions or otherwise (an “Adverse Effect”).
Furthermore, if the managing underwriters (or such investment bank) shall advise the Company and the Requesting Holders that, even after exclusion of all securities of other Persons pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the amount of
Registrable Shares proposed to be included in such Demand Registration by Requesting Holders is sufficiently large to cause an Adverse Effect, the Registrable Shares of the Requesting Holders to be included in such Demand Registration shall equal
the number of shares which the Requesting Holders are so advised can be sold in such offering without an Adverse Effect and such shares shall be allocated pro rata among the Requesting Holders on the basis of the number of Registrable Shares
requested to be included in such registration by each such Requesting Holder; provided, that if the number of Registrable Shares owned by the Demanding Stockholder to be included in the Demand Registration is less than 80% of the number
requested to be so included by such Demanding Stockholder, the Demanding Stockholder may withdraw such Demand Request by giving notice to the Company; if withdrawn, the Demand Request shall be deemed not to have been made for all purposes of this
Agreement and the Company shall pay all expenses of such withdrawn Demand Registration in accordance with Section 2.7 hereof. A Demand Registration shall not count as a Demand Registration until it has become effective, and any Demand
Registration shall not count as a Demand Registration unless the Demanding Stockholder is able to register and sell at least 80% of the Registrable Shares requested to be included by such Demanding Stockholder in such Demand Registration.

  

	 	(f)	Deferral of Filing 

 The Company
may defer the filing (but not the preparation) of a registration statement required by this Section 2.1 until after the Required Filing Date (i) for a period not to exceed one hundred eighty (180), if, at the time the Company
receives the Demand Request, there exists a Material Disclosure Event, or (ii) for 

  
 8 








 
a period not to exceed one hundred eighty (180), if, at the time the Company receives the Demand Request, the Board determines in its reasonable judgment that such Demand Registration would
(A) materially interfere with a significant acquisition, corporate organization or other similar transaction involving the Company or (B) render the Company unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange Act. A
deferral of the filing of a registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.1(f) shall be lifted, and the requested registration statement shall be filed forthwith, if, in the case of a deferral pursuant to clause (i) of the
preceding sentence, the Material Disclosure Event is disclosed or terminated, or, in the case of a deferral pursuant to clause (ii)(A) of the preceding sentence, the acquisition, corporate organization or similar transaction is abandoned, or, in the
cause of a deferral pursuant to clause (ii)(B) of the preceding sentence, such Demand Registration would no longer render the Company unable to comply with the Requirements under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. In order to defer the filing
of a registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.1(f), the Company shall promptly (but in any event within ten (10) days), upon determining to seek such deferral, deliver to each Requesting Holder a certificate signed by an
executive officer of the Company stating that the Company is deferring such filing pursuant to this Section 2.1(f), a general statement of the reason for such deferral and an approximation of the anticipated delay. Within
twenty (20) days after receiving such certificate, the Demanding Stockholder may withdraw such Demand Request by giving notice to the Company; if withdrawn, the Demand Request shall be deemed not to have been made for all purposes of this
Agreement and the Company shall pay all expenses of such withdrawn Demand Registration in accordance with Section 2.7 hereof. The Company may defer the filing of a particular registration statement pursuant to this
Section 2.1(f) only once in any consecutive twelve (12)-month period; provided that any deferral pursuant to this Section 2.1(f) shall be deemed to be a “Suspension Period” for purposes of
Section 2.6 and shall be subject to the limitations and obligations during Suspension Periods set forth in Section 2.6. Each Holder agrees to keep confidential the fact that the Company has exercised its rights under this
Section 2.1(f) and all facts and circumstances relating to such exercise until such information is made public by the Company. 
  

	 	(g)	Withdrawal and Cancellation 

 Any
Requesting Holder may withdraw its Registrable Shares from a Demand Registration at any time prior to effectiveness and any Demanding Stockholder shall have the right to cancel a proposed Demand Registration of Registrable Shares pursuant to this
Section 2.1(g). Upon such cancellation, the Company shall cease all efforts to secure registration and such Demand Registration shall not be counted as a Demand Registration under this Agreement for any purpose so long as the Demanding
Stockholder pay all expenses (including the expenses of the Company) of such cancelled Demand Registration. 

  
 9 









	 	(h)	Inclusion of Other Securities 


In any registration requested pursuant to this Section 2.1, the Company shall not be permitted to register securities other
than Registrable Shares for sale for the account of any Person (including the Company), unless permitted to do so by the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares to be sold in such registration. 

 

	Section 2.2	Piggyback Registrations 

  

	 	(a)	Right to Piggyback 

 Each time
the Company proposes to register any class of its common stock (other than pursuant to Section 2.1 or pursuant to an Excluded Registration) for sale to the public (whether for the account of the Company or the account of any security
holder of the Company) (a “Piggyback Registration”), the Company shall give prompt written notice to each Holder of Registrable Shares not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the anticipated filing date of the Company’s
registration statement. Such notice shall offer each such Holder the opportunity to include any or all of its Registrable Shares in such registration statement, subject to the limitations contained in Section 2.2(b) hereof. Each Holder
who desires to have its Registrable Shares included in such registration statement shall so advise the Company in writing (stating the number of shares desired to be registered) within fifteen (15) days after the receipt of such notice from the
Company. In the event the registration statement is not declared effective within ninety (90) days following the initial filing of such registration statement, unless a road show for an underwritten offering pursuant to such registration
statement is actually in progress at such time, the Company shall promptly provide a new written notice to all Holders of Registrable Shares giving them another opportunity to elect to include Registrable Shares in the pending registration
statement. Each Holder receiving such new written notice shall have the same rights afforded above. Subject to Section 2.2(b) below, the Company shall include in such registration statement all such Registrable Shares so requested to be
included therein; provided that the Company may at any time withdraw or cease proceeding with any such registration if it shall at the same time withdraw or cease proceeding with the registration of all other equity securities originally
proposed to be registered and shall provide each Requesting Holder with prompt written notice of such withdrawal or cessation; provided, further that any Holder shall have the right to withdraw such Holder’s request for inclusion of such
Holder’s Registrable Shares in any registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.2(a) by giving written notice to the Company of such withdrawal at least fifteen (15) days prior to such registration statement becoming

	 	(b)	Priority on Piggyback Registrations 

  

	 	(i)	 If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten offering and was initiated by the Company, and if the managing underwriters advise the Company that the
inclusion of Registrable Shares or other securities requested to be included in the registration statement would cause an Adverse Effect, then 



  
 10 










	 	
the Company shall be required to include in such registration statement, to the extent of the amount of securities that the managing underwriters advise may be sold without causing such Adverse
Effect, (A) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell; (B) second, the Registrable Shares requested to be included in such registration by any Holder thereof together with any other securities requested to be
included by any other holders of piggyback registration rights in such registration, pro rata among such Holders and such other holder of piggyback registration rights on the basis of the number of Registrable Shares and such other securities
requested to be registered by each such Holder or each such other holder of piggyback registration rights; and (C) third, any other securities requested to be included in such registration. If, as a result of the provisions of this
Section 2.2(b)(i), any Holder shall not be entitled to include all Registrable Shares in a registration that such Holder has requested to be so included, such Holder may withdraw such Holder’s request to include Registrable Shares
in such registration statement. 

  

	 	(ii)	If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten offering and was initiated by any of the other security holders of the Company (other than as set forth in
Section 2.1) (the “Secondary Offering Securityholders”), and if the managing underwriters advise the Company that the inclusion of Registrable Shares and securities held by the Secondary Offering Securityholders and any
other holders of piggyback registration rights requested to be included in the Registration Statement would cause an Adverse Effect, the Company shall include in such registration statement, to the extent of the amount of securities that the
managing underwriters advise may be sold without causing such Adverse Effect, (A) first, the other securities requested to be included by the Secondary Offering Securityholders, pro rata among such Secondary Offering
Securityholders on the basis of the number of such other securities requested to be registered by each such Secondary Offering Securityholder; (B) second, the Registrable Shares requested to be included in such registration by any Holder
thereof together with any other securities requested to be included by any other holders of piggyback registration rights in such registration, pro rata among such Holders and such other holders of piggyback registration rights on the basis
of the number of Registrable Shares and such other securities requested to be registered by each such Holder and each such other holder of piggyback registration rights; and (C) third, any other securities requested to be included in
such registration (including securities to be sold for the account of the Company). If, as a result of the provisions of this Section 2.2(b)(ii), any Holder shall not be entitled to include all Registrable Shares in a registration that
such Holder has requested to be so included, such Holder may withdraw such Holder’s request to include Registrable Shares in such registration statement. 


  
 11 










	 	(iii)	Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the provisions of Sections 2.2(b)(i) and (ii) shall not apply to a Piggyback Registration that is a Shelf
Registration. 

  

	 	(iv)	No Holder may participate in any registration statement in respect of a Piggyback Registration hereunder unless such Holder (x) agrees to sell such Holder’s
Registrable Shares on the basis provided in any underwriting agreement approved by the Company and (y) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents, each in customary
form, reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting agreements; provided that no such Holder shall be required to make any representations or warranties in connection with any such registration other than representations and
warranties as to (i) such Holder’s ownership of his, her or its Registrable Shares to be transferred free and clear of all liens, claims, and encumbrances created by such Holder, (ii) such Holder’s power and authority to effect
such transfer, and (iii) such matters pertaining to such Holder’s compliance with securities laws with respect to the Registrable Shares as may be reasonably requested; provided, further that any obligation of such Holder to
indemnify any Person pursuant to any such underwriting agreements shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders selling Registrable Shares, and such liability shall be limited to the net amount received by such Holder from the sale of
his, her or its Registrable Shares pursuant to such registration (which amounts shall include the amount of cash or the fair market value of any assets, including shares of Common Stock, received in exchange for the sale or exchange of such
Registrable Shares or that are the subject of a distribution), and the relative liability of each such Holder shall be in proportion to such net amounts; provided, further that this Section 2.2(b)(iv) shall not require any Holder of
Registrable Shares to agree to any lock up agreement, market standoff agreement or holdback agreement other than those permitted by Section 2.4 hereof. 


 

	 	(c)	Selection of Underwriters and Counsel 

 Subject to Section 2.1(c), if any Piggyback Registration is an underwritten offering initiated by the Company or another security holder of the Company, the Company or such other
securityholder shall select an investment banking firm or firms to manage the offering. The Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares included in any Piggyback Registration shall have the right to select one (1) counsel for the Requesting
Holders. 
  

	 	(d)	Effect on Demand Registrations 


No registration of the Registrable Shares effected under this Section 2.2 shall relieve the Company of its obligation to
effect a registration of Registrable Shares pursuant to Section 2.1. 

  
 12 










	Section 2.3	SEC Registration Statements 

  

	 	(a)	The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any Demand Registrations to be registered on Form S-3 (or any successor form), if applicable, once the
Company becomes eligible to use Form S-3. If the Company is not then eligible under the Securities Act to use Form S-3, such Demand Registrations shall be registered on the form for which the Company then qualifies. The Company shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to become and remain eligible to use Form S-3. 

  

	 	(b)	All such registration statements shall comply with applicable requirements of the Securities Act, and, together with each prospectus included, filed or otherwise
furnished by the Company in connection therewith, shall not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.


  

	Section 2.4	Holdback Agreements

for such securities, except pursuant to Excluded Registrations, during the seven (7) days prior to the effective date of any registration statement in connection with a Demand Registration or Piggyback Registration and thereafter until the date
on which all of the Registrable Shares subject to such registration statement have been sold (not to exceed ninety (90) days, as required by the underwriters managing the offering, subject to one extension of no more than seventeen
(17) days if required by the underwriters managing the offering in connection with NASD Rule 2711(f) or any similar or successor provision) and (ii) if requested by the managing underwriters, to use reasonable efforts to cause each
director and executive officer to agree not to effect any public sale or distribution (including sales pursuant to Section 144) of any such securities during such period (except as part of such underwritten registration, if otherwise
permitted); provided that the foregoing described holdback shall not apply to the extent that the managing underwriters of such offering otherwise agree or, in the event a registration statement does not relate to an underwritten offering
with respect to clause (i), if the holders of a majority of such Registrable Shares consent thereto. 

  

	 	(b)	 If any Holders of Registrable Shares notify the Company in writing that they intend to effect an underwritten sale of Common Stock registered pursuant
to a Shelf Registration, the Company agrees (i) not to effect any public sale or distribution of its equity securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for its equity securities, except pursuant to Excluded
Registrations, during the seven (7) days prior to and during the ninety (90)-day period beginning on the filing of the prospectus supplement with respect to such offering (not to exceed ninety (90) days, as required by the
underwriters managing the offering, subject to one extension of no more than seventeen (17) days if required by the underwriters managing the offering in connection with




  
 13 










	 	
NASD Rule 2711(f) or any similar or successor provision); and (ii) if requested by the managing underwriters, to use reasonable efforts to cause each director and executive officer to agree
not to effect any public sale or distribution (including sales pursuant to Section 144) of any such securities during such period (except as part of such underwritten registration, if otherwise permitted); provided that the foregoing described
holdback shall not apply to the extent that the managing underwriters of such offering otherwise agree. 

  

	 	(c)	Each Holder of Registrable Shares agrees, in the event of an underwritten offering by the Company (whether for the account of the Company or otherwise), not to effect
any public sale or distribution of any Registrable Shares, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such Registrable Shares, including any sale pursuant to Rule 144 (except as part of such underwritten offering),
during the seven (7) days prior to and ending up to one hundred eighty (180) days in the case of an initial Public Offering and otherwise ninety (90) days after the date of the final prospectus; provided that each other Holder
of Registrable Shares is subject to substantially the same restrictions and each Holder of Registrable Shares shall be released from its obligations under this clause to the extent that any other Holder of Registrable Shares is released; and
provided further, that after a Qualified Public Offering, any Holder, upon notice to the Company that such Holder wishes to surrender such Holder’s rights under the Agreement, shall upon such notice and in accordance with
Section 3.1 no longer be subject to the obligations imposed by this Agreement, including without limitation this Section 2.4(c). 

  

	Section 2.5	Registration Procedures 


Whenever any Holder has requested that any Registrable Shares be registered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such Registrable Shares in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof as promptly as is practicable, and pursuant thereto the Company shall as expeditiously as possible,
but subject to the other provisions of this Agreement: 
  

	 	(a)	prepare and file with the SEC by the Required Filing Date a registration statement on the appropriate form under the Securities Act with respect to such Registrable
Shares and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable after the initial filing thereof; provided that as far in advance as practicable before filing such registration
statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, the Company shall furnish to the selling Holders copies of reasonably complete drafts of all such documents prepared to be filed (including exhibits and documents that are to be incorporated by
reference into the registration statement, amendment or supplement), and any such Holder shall have the opportunity to provide comments to any information contained therein and the Company shall make any corrections or other amendments reasonably
requested by such Holder with respect to such information prior to filing any such registration statement, amendment or supplement; 


  
 14 










	 	(b)	except in the case of a Shelf Registration, prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, post-effective amendments, and supplements to such registration statement and
the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for a period of not less than one hundred and eighty (180) days (or such lesser period as is necessary for the underwriters in an
underwritten offering to sell unsold allotments) and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods
of disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement; 

  

	 	(c)	in the case of a Shelf Registration, 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 Shares subject thereto for a period ending on the earlier of
(i) twenty-four (24) months after the effective date of such registration statement and (ii) the date on which all the Registrable Shares subject thereto have been sold pursuant to such registration statement;


  

	 	(d)	furnish to each Holder selling Registrable Shares and the underwriters, if any, of the securities being registered such number of copies of such registration statement,
each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus and any summary prospectus), any documents incorporated by reference therein and such other documents as such Holder
or underwriters may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Shares owned by such Holder or the sale of such securities by such underwriters (it being understood that, subject to this Section 2.5 and
the requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, the Company consents to the use of the prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto by each such Holder and the underwriters in connection with the offering and sale
of the Registrable Shares covered by the registration statement of which such prospectus, amendment or supplement is a part); 

  

	 	(e)	use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Shares under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions
as any Holder thereof or the managing underwriters reasonably request; use commercially reasonable efforts to keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the period in which such registration statement is
required to be kept effective; and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable each such Holder to consummate the disposition of the Registrable Shares owned by such Holder in such jurisdictions;
provided that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this subparagraph (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such
jurisdiction where it is not at such time so subject or (iii) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not at such time so subject; 


  
 15 










	 	(f)	promptly notify each Holder of such Registrable Shares and each underwriter, if any, in writing (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or
post-effective amendment has been filed and, with respect to a registration statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective; (ii) of the issuance by any state securities or other regulatory authority of any order
suspending the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Shares under state securities or “blue sky” laws or the initiation or threat of initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; and (iii) if
such registration statement or related prospectus, at the time it or any amendment thereto became effective or at any time such prospectus is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or
omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, upon the discovery by the Company of such material misstatement or omission or of the happening of any event as a result of
which the Company believes there would be such a material misstatement or omission; provided that, in the case of clause (iii), promptly after delivery of such notice, the Company shall, as the case may be, (x) prepare and file with the
SEC a post-effective amendment to such registration statement and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such amendment to become effective so that such registration statement, as so amended, shall not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (y) prepare and furnish a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as
thereafter deliverable to the purchasers of such Registrable Shares, such prospectus shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading; 

  

	 	(g)	permit (i) any selling Holder that, in such Holder’s reasonable judgment, may be deemed to be an underwriter or a controlling person of the Company (in each
case, within the meaning of the Securities Act) and (ii) any selling Holder holding, or representing Holders of, a majority of the Registrable Shares included in such registration statement, to participate in the preparation of such
registration statement or related prospectus and reasonably incorporate any information about such Holder furnished to the Company by such Holder that, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, should be included; 


 

	 	(h)	 make reasonably available senior management of the Company, as selected by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares included in such
registration, to assist in the marketing of the Registrable Shares covered by such registration, including the participation of such members of the Company’s senior management in road show presentations and other customary marketing activities,
including “one on one” meetings with prospective purchasers of the Registrable Shares to be sold in the underwritten offering and otherwise to facilitate, 



  
 16 










	 	
cooperate with, and participate in each proposed offering contemplated herein and customary selling efforts related thereto, in each case to the same extent as if the Company were engaged in a
primary registered offering of its capital stock; provided that such assistance does not unduly interfere with the normal operations of the Company in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practice; 


 

	 	(i)	otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, including the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and
make generally available to the Company’s security holders an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder, as soon as reasonably practicable, but no later than thirty
(30) days after the end of the twelve (12)-month period beginning with the first day of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of a registration statement, which earnings statement shall cover said twelve
(12)-month period; provided that such requirement shall be deemed satisfied if the Company timely files complete and accurate information on Forms 10-Q, 10-K and 8-K under the Exchange Act as required thereby and otherwise complies with Rule 158
under the Securities Act; 

  

	 	(j)	in the case of an underwritten offering, if requested by the managing underwriters or any selling Holder, promptly incorporate in a prospectus supplement or
post-effective amendment such information as the managing underwriters or such selling Holder reasonably requests to be included therein, including with respect to the Registrable Shares being sold by such selling Holder, the purchase price being
paid therefor by the underwriters and with respect to any other terms of the underwritten offering of the Registrable Shares to be sold in such offering, and promptly make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective
amendment; 

  

	 	(k)	cooperate with the selling Holders and the managing underwriters to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing securities sold under
any registration statement, which certificates shall not bear any restrictive legends unless required under applicable law, and enable such securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the managing underwriters or such
selling Holders may request and keep available and make available to the Company’s transfer agent prior to the effectiveness of such registration statement a supply of such certificates; 


 

	 	(l)	 promptly make available for inspection by any selling Holder and any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to any registration
statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent or representative retained by any such selling Holder or underwriter (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and
properties of the Company (collectively, the “Records”), as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility, and cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees and independent
accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by any such Inspector in connection with such registration 



  
 17 










	 	
statement; provided that, unless the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in the registration statement or the release of such Records is
ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction, the Company shall not be required to provide any information under this subparagraph (l) if (i) the Company reasonably determines in good faith, after
consultation with outside counsel, that to do so would cause the Company to forfeit an attorney-client privilege that was applicable to such information or (ii) if either (A) the Company has requested and been granted from the SEC
confidential treatment of such information contained in any filing with the SEC or documents provided supplementally or otherwise or (B) the Company reasonably determines in good faith that such Records are confidential and so notifies the
Inspectors in writing, unless prior to furnishing any such information with respect to clause (ii) such selling Holder requesting such information agrees to enter into a confidentiality agreement in customary form and subject to customary
exceptions; and provided, further that each selling Holder agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in a court of competent jurisdiction, give notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its
expense, to undertake appropriate action and to prevent disclosure of the Records deemed confidential; 

  

	 	(m)	furnish to each selling Holder and underwriter, if any, copies of (i) an opinion or opinions of counsel to the Company and updates thereof covering the matters
customarily covered in opinions requested in underwritten offerings and (ii) a comfort letter or comfort letters and updates thereof from the Company’s independent public accountants, each in customary form and covering such matters of the
type customarily covered by comfort letters by underwriters in connection with underwritten offerings; 

  

	 	(n)	cause the Registrable Shares included in any registration statement to be listed on each securities exchange or quotation system, if any, on which similar securities
issued by the Company are then listed or quoted; 

  

	 	(o)	provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Shares registered hereunder not later than the effective date of the registration statement related thereto;


  

	 	(p)	use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Registrable Shares covered by such registration statement to be registered with or approved by such other Governmental
Authorities as may be necessary to enable the sellers thereof to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Shares; 

  

	 	(q)	notify each selling Holder promptly of any written comments by the SEC or any request by the SEC for the amending or supplementing of such registration statement or
prospectus or for additional information; 

  

	 	(r)	 if applicable, enter into an underwriting agreement for such offering, such agreement to contain such representations and warranties by the Company and




  
 18 










	 	
such other terms and provisions as are customarily contained in underwriting agreements with respect to that offering, including indemnities and contribution to the effect and to the extent
provided in Section 2.8 and the provision of opinion of counsel and accountants’ letters to the effect and to the extent provided in Section 2.5(n) and enter into any other such customary agreements and take all such
other actions as the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares covered by the registration statement or the underwriters, if any, reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Shares. The selling
Holders shall be parties to any such underwriting agreement, and the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of such underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of
such selling Holders; 

  

	 	(s)	make every reasonable effort to prevent the entry of any order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement and, in the event of the issuance of any such
stop order, or of any order suspending or preventing the use of any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of any security included in such registration statement for sale in any jurisdiction, the Company shall use commercially
reasonable efforts promptly to obtain the withdrawal of such order; 

  

	 	(t)	provide a CUSIP number for all Registrable Shares not later than the effective date of the registration statement with respect thereto; 


 

	 	(u)	in connection with an underwritten offering make such representations and warranties to the selling Holders of such Registrable Shares and the underwriters with respect
to the Registrable Shares and the registration statement as are customarily made by issuers to underwriters in primary underwritten offerings and deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by each seller of Registrable
Shares covered by the registration statement and by the underwriters to evidence compliance with such representations and warranties and with any customary conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or other agreement entered into by the
Company; and 

  

	 	(v)	advise each selling Holder, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance or threat of issuance of any stop order by the SEC
suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose and promptly use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal at
the earliest possible moment if such stop order should be issued. 

  

	Section 2.6	Suspension of Dispositions 


Each Holder agrees by acquisition of any Registrable Shares that, upon receipt of any notice (a “Suspension Notice”) from
the Company of the happening of any Material Disclosure Event, such Holder shall promptly discontinue such Holder’s disposition of Registrable Shares until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus, or
until it is advised in writing by the Company (the “Advice”) that the use of the prospectus may be 

  
 19 









 
resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated by reference in the prospectus, and, if so directed by the Company, such Holder shall deliver to
the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Shares current at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event the Company shall give any Suspension
Notice, the time period regarding the effectiveness of registration statements set forth in Sections 2.5(b) and 2.5(c) hereof shall be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of
the Suspension Notice to and including the date when each seller of Registrable Shares covered by such registration statement shall have received the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus or the Advice (such period, a “Suspension
Period”). The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts and take such actions as are reasonably necessary to render the Advice as promptly as practicable and shall as promptly as practicable after the expiration of the Suspension
Period prepare a post-effective amendment or supplement to the registration statement or the prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference, or file any required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the
Registrable Shares included therein, the prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be entitled to more than two (2) Suspension Periods during any consecutive twelve (12)-month period, which Suspension Periods shall have durations of not
more than one hundred twenty (120) days in the aggregate; provided that a Suspension Period shall automatically expire upon the public disclosure of the information to which the Material Disclosure Event relates. 

 

	Section 2.7	Registration Expenses 


The Company shall pay all reasonable, out-of-pocket fees and expenses incident to any Demand Registration or Piggyback Registration,
including all expenses incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with this Article 2, all registration and filing fees, all internal fees and expenses of the Company (including any allocation of salaries of employees of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries or other general overhead expenses of the Company and its Subsidiaries or other expenses related to the preparation of financial statements or other data normally prepared by the Company and its Subsidiaries in the
ordinary course of business and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), all fees and expenses associated with filings required to be made with any applicable Governmental Authority, as may be required by the

 20 









 
connection with such registration and the reasonable fees and expenses of any one (1) counsel for all Holders participating in such registration shall be paid for by the Company, which
counsel shall be selected in accordance with Section 2.1(c) or Section 2.2(c), as applicable. Any underwriting discounts, commissions, fees or stock transfer taxes attributable to the sale of the Registrable Shares shall be
borne by the Holders pro rata on the basis of the number of shares so registered whether or not any registration statement becomes effective, and the fees and expenses of any counsel, accountants, or other persons retained or employed by any
Holder (other than as set forth in the preceding sentence) shall be borne by such Holder. 
  

	Section 2.8	Indemnification 

  

	 	(a)	The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each seller of Registrable Shares, its Affiliates and their
respective employees, advisors, agents, representatives, partners, members, officers, and directors, each other Person who participates as an underwriter, broker or dealer in any offering or sale of securities and each other Person who controls such
seller or any such participating Person (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and any agent or investment advisor thereof (collectively, the “Covered Persons”) against, and reimburse, (i) any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, other than to the extent limited by Section 2.8(c) and (d)), based upon, arising out of, related to
or resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement, any Disclosure Statement, any prospectus, preliminary prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus included therein or any amendment
or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein, or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) any and all losses,
claims, damages, liabilities and expenses whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation or investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim
whatsoever based upon, arising out of, related to or resulting from any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission; and (iii) any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel)
as may be reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing, or defending against any litigation, or investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon, arising out of, related
to or resulting from any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission, or such violation of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, to the extent that any such expense or cost is not paid under clauses (i) or
(ii) above; except (A) insofar as any such statements or omissions are caused by or contained in written information furnished to the Company by such seller or any Covered Person specifically for inclusion in such registration statement,
prospectus, preliminary prospectus, any Disclosure Package, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, amendment or supplement thereto or (B) to the extent that any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense is incurred by a seller of Registrable Shares as
a result of selling such Registrable Shares during a Suspension Period. 


  
 21 










	 	(b)	In connection with any registration statement in which a seller of Registrable Shares is participating pursuant to this Article 2, each such seller shall
furnish to the Company such written information and affidavits regarding such seller, the Registrable Shares and the intended distribution thereof as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such registration statement or
prospectus and as shall be reasonably required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance required in connection with this Article 2 and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each such seller shall
indemnify the Company, and its officers and directors and each other Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or
several (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, other than to the extent limited by Section 2.8(c) and (d)), based upon, arising out of, related to or resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of
a material fact contained in any registration statement, any prospectus, preliminary prospectus, Disclosure Package or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus included therein or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference
therein, or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission is contained in any written information furnished by such seller or any Covered Person specifically stating that it has been provided for inclusion in such registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, Disclosure
Package or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, or document incorporated by reference therein; provided that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such sellers of Registrable
Shares, and the liability of each such seller of Registrable Shares shall be in proportion to, and shall be limited to, the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of Registrable Shares pursuant to such registration statement.


  

	 	(c)	 Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which
it seeks indemnification; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not limit the rights of such Person or relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have under subsection (a) and (b) above unless and
only to the extent that failure to give such notice materially prejudices the indemnifying party; and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and any indemnifying parties
may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have
the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim at the expense of such indemnified person, unless (x) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses or (y) the indemnifying party shall
have failed to assume the 



  
 22 










	 	
defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person. If such defense is not assumed by the indemnifying party when permitted hereunder, the indemnified party shall be
entitled to assume and control such defense and to settle and agree to pay in full such claim without the consent of the indemnifying party without prejudice to the ability of the indemnified party to enforce its claim for indemnification against
the indemnifying party hereunder. 

  

	 	(d)	Except as otherwise provided in the preceding paragraph, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party
without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If such defense is assumed by the indemnifying party pursuant to the provisions hereof, such indemnifying party shall not settle or otherwise compromise the applicable
claim (i) unless (A) such settlement or compromise contains a full and unconditional release of the indemnified party and (B) such settlement or compromise does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or
a failure to act by or on behalf of the indemnified party or (ii) if such settlement or compromise provides for injunctive or other non-monetary relief, in each case, unless the indemnified party otherwise consents in writing. An indemnifying
party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one (1) 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 of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be
obligated to pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such additional counsel or counsels. 

  

	 	(e)	 Each party hereto agrees that, if for any reason the indemnification provisions contemplated by Section 2.8(a) or
Section 2.8(b) are unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
benefits received by the indemnifying party and the indemnified party from the offering of Registrable Shares (taking into account the portion of the proceeds of the offering realized by each such party, or (ii) if the allocation provided by
clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, or provides a lesser sum to the indemnified party than the amount hereinafter calculated in this clause (ii), in such proportion as is appropriate not only to reflect the relative benefits referred
to in clause (i), but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, respectively, in connection with the actions or omissions that resulted in the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other
relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged
omission to state a material fact relates to information 



  
 23 










	 	
supplied by such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.8(e) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders or any underwriters or all of them were treated as
one (1) entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 2.8(e). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of
the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include (subject to any limitation set forth thereon) any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with investigating or, except as provided in Section 2.8(c) and (d), defending any such action, proceeding or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.8(e), no Holder
shall be required to contribute an amount greater than the dollar amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holder with respect to the sale of any Registrable Shares exceeds the amount of damages that such Holder has otherwise been required
to pay by reason of any and all untrue or alleged untrue statements of material fact or omissions or alleged omissions of material fact made in any registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment supplement thereto, or
any document incorporated by reference therein, related to such sale of Registrable Shares. 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. The Holders’ obligations in this Section 2.8(e) to contribute shall be several in proportion to the amount of Registrable Shares registered by them and not joint and
several. 

 If indemnification is available under this Section 2.8, the indemnifying parties shall
indemnify each indemnified party to the fullest extent provided in Section 2.8(a) and Section 2.8(b) without regard to the relative fault of said indemnifying party or indemnified party or any other equitable consideration
provided for in this Section 2.8(e) subject, in the case of the Holders, to the limits set forth in Section 2.8(b). 
  

	 	(f)	The indemnification and contribution provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the
indemnified party or any officer, director, or controlling Person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities and the termination of this Agreement. 


 

	 	(g)	As used in this Section 2.8, the terms “officers” and “directors” shall include the direct or indirect partners, members
or managers of Holders of Registrable Shares that are partnerships or limited liability companies, as the case may be. 


  
 24 










	Section 2.9	Transfer of Registration Rights 

 Provided that the Company is given prompt written notice by the Holder of Registrable Shares of any transfer of Registrable Shares by such Holder of Registrable Shares stating the name and address of the
transferee of such Registrable Shares and identifying the securities with respect to which the rights under this Article 2 are being assigned, the rights of such Holder of Registrable Shares under this Article 2 may be transferred in
whole or in part at any time to any such transferee, so long as such transfer of securities is in accordance with all applicable state and federal securities laws and regulations, with the Certificate, with this Agreement and the provisions of any
other instruments executed by and among each of the parties hereto (including the Stockholders Agreement), and such transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement by executing and delivering a Joinder Agreement in the form
of Exhibit A hereto (the “Joinder Agreement”). The Company shall be responsible for the expenses of registration in accordance with Section 2.7 of any transferee or assignee pursuant to this
Section 2.9 to the same extent as the original transferor. 
  

	Section 2.10	Rule 144 

 The Company
shall timely file (taking into account all valid extensions) the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (or, if the Company is not required to file such reports, shall, upon the request of the Holders, make
publicly available information substantially similar to the type of information that would be required if the Company was subject to rules under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act) and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take such
further action as the Holders may reasonably request, in each case to the extent required from time to time to enable the Holders to sell Common Stock without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by
Rule 144. Upon the reasonable request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such parties a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such
other reports and documents so filed by the Company as may be reasonably requested by any Holder in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC permitting the selling of any the securities without registration and shall, at its expense,
forthwith upon the request of any such Holder, deliver to such Holder a certificate, signed by the Company’s principal financial officer, stating (a) the Company’s name, address and telephone number (including area code), (b) the
Company’s Internal Revenue Service identification number, (c) the Company’s SEC file number, (d) the number of shares of each class of capital stock outstanding as shown by the most recent report or statement published by the
Company, and (e) whether the Company has filed the reports required to be filed under the Exchange Act for a period of at least ninety (90) days prior to the date of such certificate and has filed the most recent annual report required to
be filed thereunder. 
  

	Section 2.11	Preservation of Rights 


From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not (a) enter into any agreement with any Holder or prospective holder
of any securities of the Company providing for the granting to the holder of registration rights that are more favorable in any material respect than or are otherwise inconsistent with the rights granted hereunder and which does not expressly


  
 25 









 
provide that the Holders in this Agreement shall be treated pari passu or with priority with respect to such other holders have priority over such new holders of securities of the Company
in any subsequent registration statement or (b) with respect to its securities, enter into any agreement or arrangement, take any action, or permit any change to occur that violates or subordinates the rights expressly granted to the Holders in
this Agreement. 
  

	Section 2.12	Applicability of Rights to Holders in the Event of an Acquisition 

 In the event the Company merges into, consolidates with, sells substantially all of its assets to or otherwise becomes an Affiliate of a Person pursuant to a transaction or series of related transactions
in which members of the Holders receive equity securities of such Person (or of any Affiliate of such Person) in exchange for shares of Common Stock held by such Holders, all of the rights of the Holders set forth in this Agreement shall continue in
full force and effect and shall apply to the Person the equity securities of which are received by such Holders pursuant to such transaction or series of related transactions. The Company agrees that the Company shall not enter into any agreement
that has the effect set forth in the first clause of the preceding sentence unless such Person agrees to be bound by the foregoing provision. 
  

	Section 2.13	Deemed Underwriters 

 To
the extent that, in connection with a registration of any of the Registrable Shares under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2, any selling Holder is deemed to be an underwriter of Registrable Shares pursuant to any
SEC comments or policies, the Company agrees that (1) the indemnification and contribution provisions contained in Section 2.8 shall be applicable to the benefit of such selling Holder in its role as deemed underwriter in addition
to its capacity as Holder and (2) such selling Holder shall be entitled to conduct the due diligence which it would normally conduct in connection with an offering of securities registered under the Securities Act, including receipt of
customary opinions and comfort letters. 
 ARTICLE 3 

TERMINATION 
  

	Section 3.1	Termination 

 A particular
Registrable Share shall cease to be a Registrable Share when: (a) a registration statement covering such Registrable Share has been declared effective under the Securities Act by the SEC and such Registrable Share has been disposed of pursuant
to such effective registration statement, (b) the sale to the public of such Registrable Share pursuant to Rule 144, or (c) such Registrable Share is proposed to be sold or distributed by a Person not entitled to the registration rights
granted by this Agreement. The registration rights of a Holder in all of such Holder’s Registrable Shares shall cease to apply to such Holder and all such Registrable Shares (x) during any period when the entire amount of the Registrable
Shares owned by a Holder may be sold in a single sale pursuant to Rule 144 or (y) at any time after one hundred eighty (180) days following a Qualified Public Offering effective upon such Holder’s election by written notice to the
Company to no longer be a Party to this Agreement; provided, that if such Holder is subject to a holdback obligation pursuant to Section 2.4 at the time of such election, this clause (y) shall be effective at the time such
obligation terminates. Upon the 

  
 26 









 
effectiveness of a Holder’s election under clause (y) of the preceding sentence, without limiting the effect of such election, such Holder shall not have any further obligations under
Section 2.4(c). In connection with clauses (x) and (y) of this Section 3.1, such Holder shall no longer be required for purposes of amending this Agreement and shall no longer be deemed a Holder of Registrable
Shares for purposes of receiving any required notices hereunder. For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 3.1, the Company shall, promptly upon the request of any Holder, furnish to such Holder evidence of the number of
Registrable Shares then outstanding. This Agreement may be terminated at any time by the written agreement of holders of at least 75% of all Registrable Shares then outstanding. 

ARTICLE 4 

MISCELLANEOUS 
  

	Section 4.1	Whole Agreement 

 This
Agreement, together with the Stockholders Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

  

	Section 4.2	Successors and Assigns 


Except as otherwise provided herein, no party hereto may assign, directly or indirectly, by operation of law or otherwise, any of its
respective rights or delegate any of its responsibilities, liabilities or obligations under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of each other party hereto. 

 

	Section 4.3	Amendment and Waiver 


Except as otherwise provided herein and other than as a result of the execution and delivery of a Joinder Agreement, no amendment,
alteration or modification of this Agreement or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective against the Company or the Holders unless such amendment, alteration, modification or waiver is approved in writing by the Company and the
Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares; provided, however, that no amendment, alteration, modification or waiver of the rights of any Holder who has a right to a Demand Registration may be made without such Holder’s prior written
consent if such amendment, alteration, modification or waiver would have an Adverse Effect on such Holder’s rights under this Agreement. The failure of any party to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of
such provision and shall not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce each provision of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. 
  

	Section 4.4	Severability 

 If any
provision of this Agreement, including any phrase, sentence, clause, Section or subsection, is inoperative or unenforceable for any reason, such circumstances shall not have the effect of rendering the provision in question inoperative or
unenforceable in any other case or circumstance, or of rendering any other provision or provisions herein contained invalid, inoperative, or unenforceable to any extent whatsoever. If any provision of this Agreement shall be adjudged to be
excessively broad as to duration, geographical scope, activity or subject, the 

  
 27 









 
parties hereto intend that such provision shall be deemed modified to the minimum degree necessary to make such provision valid and enforceable under applicable law and that such modified
provision shall thereafter be enforced to the fullest extent possible. 
  

	Section 4.5	Remedies 

 The Parties
agree that money damages or other remedy at law would not be a sufficient or adequate remedy for any breach or violation of, or a default under, this Agreement by them and that, in addition to all other remedies available to them, each of them shall
be entitled to an injunction restraining such breach, violation or default or threatened breach, violation or default and to any other equitable relief including, without limitation, specific performance without bond or other security being
required. 
  

	Section 4.6	No Third Party Beneficiaries 

 Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended or shall be construed to give any person other than the Parties (including any permitted transferees that hereafter become Parties in accordance
with Section 2.9) to this Agreement, or any of their respective successors and permitted assigns any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of any agreement or provision contained herein.

Agreement may be executed in several counterparts (including by facsimile, .pdf or other electronic transmission), each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.
