(2) No bonds, debentures, notes or other indebtedness having the right to vote (or convertible into or exchangeable for,

rights plan or agreement).

 6

(except as enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights or by general equity principles).
No other corporate proceedings are necessary for the execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, the performance by it of its obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation by it of the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than the Stockholder Approval with respect to the exchange of Series B Preferred for Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms of the Series B Certificate of Designations. The Board of
Directors has taken all necessary actions such that the restrictions set forth in Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law will not apply to any acquisition by the Purchaser of the Preferred Shares to be issued pursuant to this
Agreement or upon the conversion of the Preferred Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement. 
 (2) Neither the execution and
delivery by the Company of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, nor compliance by the Company with any of the provisions hereof or thereof (including the
conversion or exercise provisions of the Preferred Shares), will (A) violate, conflict with, or result in a breach of any provision of, or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a

any Company Subsidiary under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of (i) the certificate of incorporation of the Company (as amended or modified from time to time prior to the date hereof, the “Certificate of
Incorporation”) or bylaws of the Company (as amended or modified from time to time prior to the date hereof, the “Bylaws”) or the certificate of incorporation, charter, bylaws or other governing instrument of any Company
Subsidiary or (ii) any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, deed of trust, license, lease, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which the Company or any Company Subsidiary is a party or by which it may be bound, or to which the Company or
any Company Subsidiary or any of the properties or assets of the Company or any Company Subsidiary may be subject, or (B) violate any law, statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, permit, franchise or any judgment, ruling, order, writ, injunction
or decree applicable to the Company or any Company Subsidiary or any of their respective properties or assets, except in the case of clauses (A)(ii) and (B) for such violations, conflicts and breaches as would not, individually or in the

Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”) and other applicable antitrust Laws, in each case, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, including the issuance of Preferred Shares and
Common Stock to the Purchaser (upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock). Without limiting the foregoing, the Purchaser and the Company shall prepare and file a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Purchaser and the Company will have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable, each will consult with the other, in each case, subject to applicable laws relating to the exchange
of information, all the information relating to such other party, and any of their respective Affiliates, which appears in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party or any Governmental Entity in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In exercising the foregoing right, each of the parties hereto agrees to act reasonably and as promptly as practicable. Each party hereto agrees to keep the other party apprised of the status of matters
referred to in this Section 3.1. The Purchaser shall promptly furnish the Company, and the Company shall promptly furnish the Purchaser, to the extent permitted by Law, with copies of written communications received by it or its Subsidiaries
from any Governmental Entity in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 3.2 Reasonable Best Efforts to Close.
During the Pre-Closing Period, the Company and the Purchaser will use reasonable best efforts in good faith to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary under applicable laws so as to permit
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as practicable and otherwise to enable consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and shall cooperate reasonably with the other party hereto to that end, including in
relation to the satisfaction of the conditions to Closing set forth in Sections 1.3(a), (b) and (c) and cooperating in seeking to obtain any consent required from Governmental Entities.

 3.3 Stockholder Approval; Proxy Statement. The Company agrees to use its reasonable best
efforts to seek the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Common Stock voting as a single class (which, for this purpose, shall not include the votes of holders of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock), in accordance with
applicable Law, the By-laws and the NYSE Listed Company Manual, of the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock into Series A Preferred Stock (the “Stockholder Approval”) at the 2015 annual meeting of the stockholders of the
Company (the “Stockholder Meeting”), which shall be held as soon as reasonably practicable after the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, provided that if the Purchaser or an Affiliate of the Purchaser
commences the tender offer contemplated by the Tender Offer Letter of Intent, such meeting shall be scheduled promptly following consummation or termination of such tender offer. The preliminary proxy statement to be sent to the Company’s
stockholders in connection with the Stockholder Meeting (the “Proxy Statement”) shall include the recommendation of the Board of Directors that the stockholders vote in favor of the Stockholder Approval. If the Stockholder Approval
is not obtained at the Stockholder Meeting, then the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Stockholder Approval at the next occurring annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company. The Company shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to solicit from the stockholders proxies in favor of the Stockholder Approval and to obtain the Stockholder Approval. The Purchaser agrees to furnish to the Company all information concerning the Purchaser and its Affiliates as
the Company may reasonably request in connection with any stockholder meeting at which the Stockholder Approval is sought. The Company shall respond reasonably promptly to any comments received from the SEC with respect to any preliminary Proxy
Statement. The Company shall provide to the Purchaser, as promptly as reasonably practicable after receipt thereof, any written comments from the SEC or any written request from the SEC or its staff for amendments or supplements to the Proxy
Statement or any preliminary proxy statement as it relates to the Stockholder Approval and shall provide the Purchaser with copies of all correspondence between the Company, on the one hand, and the SEC and its staff, on the other hand, relating to
the Proxy Statement as it relates to the Stockholder Approval. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated above, prior to filing or mailing the Proxy Statement (or, in each case, any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to any
comments of the SEC or its staff with respect thereto as it relates to the Stockholder Approval, the Company shall provide the Purchaser with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such document or response. 

3.4 Authorized Common Stock. At any time that any Preferred Shares are outstanding, the Company shall from time to time take all lawful
action within its control to cause the authorized capital stock of the Corporation to include a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares of (a) Common Stock to satisfy the conversion requirements of all shares of the Series A
Preferred Stock then outstanding (assuming full conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock and giving effect to any adjustment to the Conversion Rate (as defined in the Series A Certificate) pursuant to Section 9 of the Series A Certificate)
and (b) Series A Preferred Stock to satisfy the conversion requirements of all shares of the Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding (giving effect to any adjustment of the Conversion Rate (as defined in the Series B Certificate) pursuant to
Section 9 of the Series B Certificate). All shares of Common Stock 

  
 19 








 
delivered upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be newly issued shares or shares held in treasury by the Company, shall have been duly authorized and validly issued and shall be
fully paid and nonassessable, and free and clear of any Liens (other than Liens incurred by the Purchaser, restrictions arising under applicable securities Laws or the Stockholder Rights Agreement). 

3.5 Series A Certificate. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall file in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware
the Series A Certificate in the form attached to this Agreement as Schedule A, with such changes thereto as the parties may agree. 

3.6 Series B Certificate. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall file in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware
the Series B Certificate in the form attached to this Agreement as Schedule B, with such changes thereto as the parties may agree. 

3.7 Certain Adjustments. If any occurrence from the date hereof until the Closing would have resulted in an adjustment to the
Conversion Rate (as defined in the Series A Certificate) pursuant to Section 9 of the Series A Certificate if the Series A Preferred Stock had been issued and outstanding since the date hereof, the Company shall adjust the Conversion Rate,
effective as of the Closing, in the same manner as would have been required by Section 9 of the Series A Certificate if the Series A Preferred Stock had been issued and outstanding since the date hereof. 

3.8 Confidentiality. Each party to this Agreement will hold, and will cause its respective Affiliates and their respective directors,
managers, officers, employees, agents, consultants and advisors to hold, in strict confidence, unless disclosure to a regulatory authority is necessary in connection with any necessary regulatory approval, examination or inspection or unless
disclosure is required by judicial or administrative process or by other requirement of law or the applicable requirements of any regulatory agency or relevant stock exchange (in which case, other than in connection with a disclosure in connection
with a routine audit or examination by, or document request from, a regulatory or self-regulatory authority, bank examiner or auditor, the party disclosing such information shall provide the other party with prior written notice of such permitted
disclosure), all non-public records, books, contracts, instruments, computer data and other data and information (collectively, “Information”) concerning the other party hereto furnished to it by or on behalf of such other party or
its representatives pursuant to this Agreement (except to the extent that such information can be shown to have been (1) previously known by such party from other sources, provided that such source was not known, after reasonable inquiry and
investigation, by such party to be bound by a contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to the other party, (2) in the public domain through no violation of this Section 3.8 by such party or (3) later lawfully
acquired from other sources by the party to which it was furnished), and neither party hereto shall release or disclose such Information to any other person, except its auditors, attorneys, financial advisors, financing sources and other consultants
and advisors. The Confidentiality Agreement, dated as of March 20, 2015 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), by and between GrafTech International Ltd. and Brookfield Capital Partners LLC shall remain in full force and effect.

 3.9 NYSE Listing of Shares. To the extent it has not already done so, the Company shall promptly apply to cause the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock to be approved for listing on the NYSE, subject to official notice of issuance. 

  
 20 








 3.10 State Securities Laws. During the Pre-Closing Period, the Company shall use its
reasonable best efforts to (a) obtain all necessary permits and qualifications, if any, or secure an exemption therefrom, required by any state or country prior to the offer and sale of Common Stock upon the conversion of the Preferred Shares
and/or the Preferred Shares and (b) cause such authorization, approval, permit or qualification to be effective as of the Closing and, as to such Common Stock, as of any conversion of the Preferred Shares. 

3.11 Negative Covenants. During the Pre-Closing Period, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall use their reasonable best efforts to
operate their businesses in the ordinary course, and, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), shall not: 

(a) declare, or make payment in respect of, any dividend or other distribution upon any shares of capital stock of the Company; 

(b) redeem, repurchase or acquire any capital stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, other than repurchases of capital stock from
employees, officers or directors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business pursuant to any of the Company’s agreements or plans in effect as of the date hereof; 

(c) amend the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws in a manner that would adversely affect the Purchaser either as a holder of Series A
Preferred Stock or with respect to the rights of the Purchaser under this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Stockholder Rights Agreement; or 

(d) authorize, issue or reclassify any capital stock, or securities exercisable for, exchangeable for or convertible into capital stock, of
the Company other than (i) the authorization and issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock and (ii) issuances of capital stock, or securities exercisable for, exchangeable for or convertible into capital
stock, of the Company to employees, officers and directors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business pursuant to any of the Company’s agreements or plans in effect as of the date hereof. 

3.12 Change of Control. The parties agree that in the event a Change of Control (as defined in the Series A Certificate) occurs on or
prior to the Closing Date (a “Pre-Closing Change of Control”), upon issuance of the Preferred Shares, the holders of the Preferred Shares shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase, by irrevocable, written notice to
the Company, all or any portion of such holder’s Preferred Shares at a purchase price per Preferred Share equal to the amount such holders would have received in the Pre-Closing Change of Control had they converted such shares into shares of
Common Stock immediately prior to the Pre-Closing Change of Control (i.e., the As-Converted Value of Preferred Stock per Annex 1 to the Series A Certificate) (the “Repurchase Price”). Within thirty (30) days following the
Pre-Closing Change of Control, the Company shall send notice by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to (a) if the Closing has occurred, the holders of record of Preferred Shares at their


  
 21 








 
respective last addresses appearing on the books of the Company or (b) if the Closing has not occurred, to the Purchaser in accordance with Section 6.6, stating (i) that a
Pre-Closing Change of Control has occurred, (ii) that all shares of Series A Preferred Stock tendered prior to a specified Business Day no earlier than thirty (30) days nor later than sixty (60) days from the date such notice is
mailed shall be accepted for repurchase; provided, that if the Closing has not occurred as of the date such notice is mailed, then such specified Business Day shall be no earlier than thirty (30) days nor later than sixty (60) days after
the Closing Date, and (iii) the procedures that the holders of the Preferred Shares must follow in order for their Preferred Shares to be repurchased, including the place or places where certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for
payment of the Repurchase Price. If such holders have not timely tendered their shares of Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with the foregoing sentence, such holders shall be deemed to have waived all rights to have their Preferred Shares
repurchased under this Section 3.12 and under the Series A Certificate with respect to such Pre-Closing Change of Control. 
 ARTICLE
IV 
 ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS 

4.1 Legend. 
 (a) The
Purchaser agrees that all certificates or other instruments representing the Preferred Shares subject to this Agreement (or the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof) will bear a legend substantially to the following effect: 

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS INSTRUMENT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF
ANY STATE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT WHILE A REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATING THERETO IS IN EFFECT UNDER SUCH ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT
OR SUCH LAWS. 
 THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO TRANSFER AND OTHER RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN A STOCKHOLDER
RIGHTS AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF [●], 2015, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE ISSUER. 
 (b) Upon request of the
applicable Brookfield Party (or any Permitted Transferee), upon receipt by the Company of an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that such legend is no longer required under the Securities Act and applicable state
laws, the Company shall promptly cause the first paragraph of the legend to be removed from any certificate for any Preferred Shares to be transferred in accordance with the terms of the Stockholder Rights Agreement. The Purchaser acknowledges that
the Preferred Shares and Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock have not been registered under the Securities Act or under any state securities laws and agrees that it will not


  
 22 








 
sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Preferred Shares or Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, except in compliance with the registration requirements or
exemption provisions of the Securities Act, any other applicable securities laws and the Stockholder Rights Agreement. 
 4.2 Tax
Matters. 
 (a) The Company and its paying agent shall be entitled to withhold taxes on all payments on the Preferred Shares or Common
Stock or other securities issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock to the extent required by law. Prior to the date of any such payment, the Purchaser (or any transferee) shall deliver to the Company or its paying agent a duly
executed, valid, accurate and properly completed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or an appropriate Internal Revenue Service Form W-8, as applicable. 

(b) Absent a change in law or Internal Revenue Service practice, or a contrary determination (as defined in Section 1313(a) of the United
States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)), the Purchaser and the Company agree not to treat the Preferred Shares (based on their terms as set forth in the Series A Certificate and Series B Certificate, as
applicable) as “preferred stock” within the meaning of Section 305 of the Code, and Treasury Regulation Section 1.305-5 for United States federal income tax and withholding tax purposes and shall not take any position
inconsistent with such treatment. 
 (c) The Company shall pay any and all documentary, stamp and similar issue or transfer tax due on
(x) the issuance of the Preferred Shares, (y) the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock or (z) the issuance of shares of Series A Preferred Stock upon conversion of the Series B Preferred
Stock. However, in the case of conversion of Series A Preferred Stock, the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or duty that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock or Series
A Preferred Stock in a name other than that of the holder of the shares to be converted, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issuance has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax or duty,
or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax or duty has been paid. 
 (d) The Purchaser and the Company agree to
cooperate with each other in connection with any redemption of part of the Preferred Shares and to use good faith efforts to structure such redemption so that such redemption may be treated as a sale or exchange pursuant to Section 302 of the
Code; provided that nothing in this Section 4.2(d) shall require the Company to purchase any of the Preferred Shares, and provided further that the Company makes no representation or warranty hereunder regarding the tax treatment of any
redemption of the Preferred Shares. 
 ARTICLE V 

INDEMNITY 
 5.1
Indemnification by the Company. From and after the Closing, the Company agrees to indemnify the Purchaser and its Affiliates and its and their officers, directors, managers, employees and agents (collectively, “Purchaser Related
Parties”) from, and hold each 

  
 23 








 
of them harmless against, any and all losses, damages, actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations, litigation or inquiries), demands and causes of action
(“Losses”), and, in connection therewith, and promptly upon demand, pay or reimburse each of them for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs, losses, liabilities, damages or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever
(including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and all other reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such matter that may be incurred by them or
asserted against or involve any of them), whether or not involving a Third Party Claim, incurred by or asserted against such Purchaser Related Parties, as a result of or arising out of (i) the failure of the representations or warranties made
by the Company contained in Section 2.1(a), 2.1(b), 2.1(c)(1), 2.1(e), 2.1(f)(1), 2.1(f)(4) or in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto to be true and correct or (ii) the breach of any of the covenants of the Company contained herein;
provided that in the case of the immediately preceding clause (i), such claim for indemnification relating to a breach of any representation or warranty is made prior to the expiration of such representation or warranty as set forth in
Section 5.5; provided, further, that for purposes of determining when an indemnification claim has been made, the date upon which a Purchaser Related Party shall have given written notice (stating in reasonable detail the basis of the claim for
indemnification) to the Company shall constitute the date upon which such claim has been made. 
 5.2 Indemnification by the
Purchaser. From and after the Closing, the Purchaser agrees to indemnify the Company and its officers, directors, managers, employees, and agents (collectively, “Company Related Parties”) from, and hold each of them harmless
against, any and all Losses, and, in connection therewith, and promptly upon demand, pay or reimburse each of them for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs, losses, liabilities, damages or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever
(including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and all other reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such matter that may be incurred by them or
asserted against or involve any of them), whether or not involving a Third Party Claim, incurred by or asserted against such Company Related Parties as a result of or arising out of (i) the failure of any of the representations or warranties
made by the Purchaser contained in Section 2.2(a), 2.2(b)(1) or 2.2(c) to be true and correct or (ii) the breach of any of the covenants of the Purchaser contained herein; provided that in the case of the immediately preceding clause (i),
such claim for indemnification relating to a breach of any representation or warranty is made prior to the expiration of such representation or warranty as set forth in Section 5.5; provided, further, that for purposes of determining when an
indemnification claim has been made, the date upon which a Company Related Party shall have given written notice (stating in reasonable detail the basis of the claim for indemnification) to the Purchaser shall constitute the date upon which such
claim has been made. 
 5.3 Indemnification Procedure. 

(a) A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a Third Party Claim may be asserted by written notice to the party from whom
indemnification is sought; provided, however, that failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall not preclude the indemnified party from any indemnification that it may claim in accordance with this Article V unless and to the extent the
Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure, except as otherwise provided in Sections 5.1 and 5.2. 

  
 24 








 (b) Promptly after any Company Related Party or Purchaser Related Party (hereinafter, the
“Indemnified Party”) has received notice of any indemnifiable claim hereunder, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding by a third person, which the Indemnified Party believes in good faith is an indemnifiable claim
under this Agreement (each, a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall give the indemnitor hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) written notice of such Third Party Claim but failure or delay to so notify the
Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability it may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure or delay. Such notice shall state
the nature and the basis of such Third Party Claim to the extent then known. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume and control the defense of, and settle, at its own expense and by its own counsel, any such matter as long as the
Indemnifying Party pursues the same diligently and in good faith. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to assume and control the defense or settle such Third Party Claim, it shall promptly, and in no event later than ten (10) business days
after notice of such claim, notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in all reasonable respects in the defense thereof and/or the settlement
thereof. Such cooperation shall include, but shall not be limited to, furnishing the Indemnifying Party with any books, records and other information reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party and in the Indemnified Party’s possession or
control. Such cooperation of the Indemnified Party shall be at the cost of the Indemnifying Party. After the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party of its intention to undertake to defend or settle any such asserted liability, and for
so long as the Indemnifying Party diligently pursues such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any additional legal expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any defense or settlement of such asserted
liability; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall be entitled (i) at its own expense, to participate in the defense of such asserted liability and any negotiations of the settlement thereof and (ii) if (A) the
Indemnifying Party has, within fifteen (15) business days of when the Indemnified Party provides written notice of a Third Party Claim, failed to (y) assume the defense or settlement of such Third Party Claim and (z) notify the
Indemnified Party of such assumption, or (B) the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and counsel to the Indemnified Party shall have concluded that there may be reasonable defenses
available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party or if the interests of the Indemnified Party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the Indemnifying Party,
then, in each case, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select one (1) separate counsel and, upon prompt notice to the Indemnifying Party, to assume such settlement or legal defense and otherwise to participate in the defense of such
action, with the expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party as incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall
not settle any indemnified claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party, unless the settlement thereof imposes no liability or obligation on, and includes a complete release from liability of, and does not contain any admission of wrongdoing
by, the Indemnified Party. 
 5.4 Tax Matters. All indemnification payments under this Article V shall be treated as adjustments to
the Purchase Price for tax purposes, except as otherwise required by applicable Law. 

  
 25 








 5.5 Survival. The representations and warranties of the parties contained in this
Agreement shall survive for twelve (12) months following the Closing, except that (i) the representations and warranties of the Company contained in Sections 2.1(a), 2.1(b), 2.1(c)(1) and 2.1(e) will survive until the expiration of the
applicable statute of limitations, and (ii) the representations and warranties of the Purchaser contained in Sections 2.2(a), 2.2(b)(1) or 2.2(c) will survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. All of the covenants
or other agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement shall survive until fully performed or fulfilled, unless and to the extent that non-compliance with such covenants or agreements is waived in writing by the party entitled to such
performance. 
 5.6 Limitation on Damages. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, except in the case of fraud, no
party hereto shall have any liability to the other party in excess of the Purchase Price, and neither party shall be liable for any exemplary or punitive damages or any other damages to the extent not reasonably foreseeable arising out of or in
connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (in each case, unless any such damages are awarded pursuant to a Third Party Claim). 

ARTICLE VI 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 6.1
Expenses. Each of the parties will bear and pay all costs and expenses incurred by it or on its behalf in connection with the transactions contemplated pursuant to this Agreement; provided that, except as set forth in Section 4.2(c) that
the Company shall, upon the Closing of the transaction contemplated hereby, or thereafter, reimburse the Purchaser for its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket third-party costs and expenses incurred in connection with due diligence, the
negotiation and preparation of this Agreement and undertaking of the transactions contemplated pursuant to this Agreement, including any such costs and expenses incurred after the Closing (including fees and expenses of attorneys and accounting and
financial advisers in connection with the transactions contemplated pursuant to this Agreement); provided that the maximum amount of such reimbursable costs and expenses shall not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate. 

6.2 Amendment; Waiver. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be effective with respect to any party unless
made in writing and signed by an officer of a duly authorized representative of such party. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial
exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The conditions to each party’s obligation to consummate the Closing are for the sole benefit of such party and may be waived
by such party in whole or in part to the extent permitted by applicable law. No waiver of any party to this Agreement will be effective unless it is in a writing signed by a duly authorized officer of the waiving party that makes express reference
to the provision or provisions subject to such waiver. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. 

  
 26 








 6.3 Counterparts; Electronic Transmission. For the convenience of the parties hereto, this
Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, each such counterpart being deemed to be an original instrument, and all such counterparts will together constitute the same agreement. Executed signature pages to this Agreement may
be delivered by facsimile or other means of electronic transmission and such facsimiles or other means of electronic transmission will be deemed as sufficient as if actual signature pages had been delivered. 

6.4 Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware. The parties
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of Delaware for any actions, suits or proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby. The parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consent to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such action, suit or proceeding and irrevocably waive, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that they may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such action, suit or proceeding in any such court or that any such action, suit or proceeding which is brought in any such court has
been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such action, suit or proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees
that service of process on such party as provided in Section 6.6 shall be deemed effective service of process on such party. 
 6.5

 6.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Schedules hereto and the documents and
instruments referred to in this Agreement), together with the Fund Guarantee and the Confidentiality Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement among the parties and supersedes the Letter of Intent and all other prior agreements and understandings,
both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and transactions contemplated hereby. 
 6.8
Assignment. Neither this Agreement, nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other party,
provided, however, that (a) the Purchaser or any Brookfield Party may assign its rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, to one or more Permitted Transferees, after the Closing, subject to any conditions in
the Stockholder Rights Agreement, and (b) in the event of such assignment, the assignee shall agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, including the rights, interests and obligations so assigned; provided that no such
assignment will relieve the Purchaser of its obligations hereunder prior to the Closing; provided, further, that no Brookfield Party shall assign any of its obligations hereunder with the primary intent of avoiding, circumventing or eliminating such

 SCHEDULE A 

CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS 

OF THE 
 SERIES A
CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK, 
 PAR VALUE $0.01 PER SHARE, 

OF 
 GRAFTECH
INTERNATIONAL LTD. 
 Pursuant to Section 151 of the 

General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware 

The undersigned DOES HEREBY CERTIFY that the following resolution was duly adopted by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of
GrafTech International Ltd., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called the “Corporation”), with the designations, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and the qualifications,
limitations or restrictions thereof, having been fixed by the Board pursuant to authority granted to it under Article Sixth of the Corporation’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate”)
and in accordance with the provisions of Section 151 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware: 
 RESOLVED: That,
pursuant to authority conferred upon the Board by the Certificate, the Board hereby authorizes the issuance of up to 150,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Corporation and hereby fixes the
designations, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of such shares, in addition to those set forth in the Certificate, as follows: 

Section 1. Designation. The shares of such series shall be designated “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock,” and the
number of shares constituting such series shall be 150,000 (the “Series A Preferred Stock”). The number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased by resolution of the Board and the approval by the holders
of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, voting as a separate class; provided that no decrease shall reduce the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to a number less than the number of shares of such
series then outstanding. 
 Section 2. Currency. All Series A Preferred Stock shall be denominated in United States currency,
and all payments and distributions thereon or with respect thereto shall be made in United States currency. All references herein to “$” or “dollars” refer to United States currency. 

Section 3. Ranking. The Series A Preferred Stock shall, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up or
dissolution, rank senior to each other class or series of shares of the Corporation that the Corporation may issue in the future the terms of which do not expressly provide that such class or series ranks equally with, or senior to, the Series A
Preferred Stock, with respect to dividend rights and/or rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution, including, without limitation, the common stock of the Corporation, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) (such
junior stock being referred to hereinafter collectively as “Junior Stock”). 







 The Series A Preferred Stock shall, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation,
winding up or dissolution, rank equally with each other class or series of shares of the Corporation that the Corporation may issue in the future the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series shall rank equally with the Series A
Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution (“Parity Stock”). 

The Series A Preferred Stock shall, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution, rank junior to
each other class or series of shares of the Corporation that the Corporation may issue in the future, the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series shall rank senior to the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights
and rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution. The Series A Preferred Stock shall also rank junior to the Corporation’s existing and future Indebtedness. 

For the avoidance of doubt, the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) shall,
with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution, rank equally with the Series A Preferred Stock. 

Section 4. Dividends. 

(a) The holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board, out of any funds legally
available therefor, dividends per share of Series A Preferred Stock of an amount equal to (i) 7.0% per annum of the Stated Value (as herein defined) of each share of such Series A Preferred Stock then in effect, before any dividends shall
be declared, set apart for or paid upon the Junior Stock (the “Regular Dividends”), and (ii) the aggregate amount of any dividends or other distributions, whether cash, in kind or other property, paid on outstanding shares of
Common Stock on a per share basis based on the number of shares of Common Stock into which such share of Series A Preferred Stock could be converted on the applicable record date for such dividends or other distributions, assuming such shares of
Common Stock were outstanding on the applicable record date for such dividend or other distributions (the “Participating Dividends” and, together with the Regular Dividends, the “Dividends”). For purposes hereof,
the term “Stated Value” shall mean $1,000.00 per share of Series A Preferred Stock, as adjusted as described in Section 4(c) below. 

(b) Regular Dividends shall be payable quarterly in arrears on [January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1] of each
year (unless any such day is not a Business Day, in which event such Regular Dividends shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day, without accrual to the actual payment date), commencing on [July 1], 2015 (each such payment date being a
“Regular Dividend Payment Date,” and the period from the date of issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock to the first Regular Dividend Payment Date and each such quarterly period thereafter being a “Regular Dividend
Period”). The amount of Regular Dividends payable on the Series A Preferred Stock for any period shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. Participating Dividends shall be payable as and when
paid to the holders of shares of Common Stock (each such date being a “Participating Dividend Payment Date,” and, together with each Regular Dividend Payment Date, a “Dividend Payment Date”). 

(c) Regular Dividends shall begin to accrue from the Issue Date and, if not declared, shall be cumulative. Any Regular Dividend or portion
thereof undeclared and accrued but 

  
 2 








 
unpaid on any Regular Dividend Payment Date shall, (i) so long as Stockholder Approval (as defined in the Investment Agreement) has been obtained, be added to the Stated Value until, but
only until, such Regular Dividend or portion thereof is paid in cash in full or (ii) shall remain outstanding as accrued but unpaid dividends until, but only until, such Regular Dividend or portion thereof is paid in cash in full. If at any
time the Corporation does not pay any Regular Dividend in full on any scheduled Regular Dividend Payment Date, such Regular Dividends will accrue at an annual rate of 8.0% of the Stated Value from such scheduled Regular Dividend Payment Date to the
date that all accumulated Regular Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have been paid in cash in full, and thereafter will accrue at an annual rate of 7.0%. For the avoidance of doubt, Regular Dividends shall accumulate whether or not in any
Regular Dividend Period there have been funds of the Corporation legally available for the payment of such dividends. Participating Dividends are payable on a cumulative basis once declared, whether or not there shall be funds legally available for
the payment thereon. 
 (d) Except as otherwise provided herein, if at any time the Corporation pays less than the total amount of Dividends
then accrued but unpaid with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock, such payment shall be distributed pro rata among the holders thereof based upon the Stated Value on all shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by each such holder as of the
record date for such payment. When Dividends are not paid in full upon the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, all Dividends declared on Series A Preferred Stock and any other Parity Stock shall be paid pro rata so that the amount of Dividends so
declared on the shares of Series A Preferred Stock and each such other class or series of Parity Stock shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio as accrued but unpaid Dividends (for the full amount of dividends that would be payable for
the most recently payable dividend period if dividends were declared in full on non-cumulative Parity Stock) on the shares of Series A Preferred Stock and such other class or series of Parity Stock bear to each other. 

(e) When and if declared, the Regular Dividends shall be paid in cash. 

(f) The Corporation shall not declare or pay any dividends on shares of Common Stock unless the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock then
outstanding shall simultaneously receive Participating Dividends on a pro rata basis as if the shares of Series A Preferred Stock had been converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 7 immediately prior to the record date for
determining the stockholders eligible to receive such dividends. 
 (g) Each Dividend shall be payable to the holders of record of shares of
Series A Preferred Stock as they appear on the stock records of the Corporation at the Close of Business on such record dates (each, a “Dividend Payment Record Date”), which (i) with respect to Regular Dividends, shall be not
more than thirty (30) days nor less than ten (10) days preceding the applicable Regular Dividend Payment Date, and (ii) with respect to Participating Dividends, shall be the same day as the record date for the payment of dividends or
distributions to the holders of shares of Common Stock. 
 (h) From and after the time, if any, that the Corporation shall have failed to
pay all accrued but unpaid Regular Dividends for all prior Regular Dividend Periods and/or declared and unpaid Participating Dividends in accordance with this Section 4, no dividends shall be declared or paid or set apart for payment, or other
distribution declared or made, upon any Junior 

  
 3 








 
Stock, nor shall any Junior Stock be redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired for any consideration (nor shall any moneys be paid to or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of
any shares of any such Junior Stock) by the Corporation, directly or indirectly until all such Regular Dividends and/or Participating Dividends have been paid in full, without the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of
Series A Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to: 
 (1) purchases,
redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of Junior Stock in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more employees, officers, directors, managers or consultants of
or to the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries; 
 (2) an exchange, redemption, reclassification or conversion of any class
or series of Junior Stock for any class or series of Junior Stock; or 
 (3) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants,
options or other rights where the dividended stock or the stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks equal or junior to that stock. 

Section 5. Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up. 

(a) Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation (each, a “Liquidation”),
after satisfaction of all liabilities and obligations to creditors of the Corporation and before any distribution or payment shall be made to holders of any Junior Stock, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, out of
the assets of the Corporation or proceeds thereof (whether capital or surplus) legally available therefor, an amount per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to the greater of: 

(1) the Stated Value per share, plus an amount equal to any Regular Dividends accrued but unpaid thereon (whether or not
declared) plus declared but unpaid Participating Dividends, in each case, through the date of Liquidation; and 
 (2) the
payment such holders would have received had such holders, immediately prior to such Liquidation converted their shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock (at the then applicable Conversion Rate) pursuant to Section 7
immediately prior to such Liquidation, plus declared but unpaid Participating Dividends through the date of Liquidation. 
 (the greater of (1) and
(2) is referred to herein as the “Liquidation Preference”). Holders of Series A Preferred Stock will not be entitled to any other amounts from the Corporation after they have received the full amounts provided for in this
Section 5(a) and will have no right or claim to any of the Corporation’s remaining assets. 
 (b) If, in connection with any
distribution described in Section 5(a) above, the assets of the Corporation or proceeds thereof are not sufficient to pay in full the Liquidation Preference payable on the Series A Preferred Stock and the corresponding amounts payable on the
Parity Stock, then such assets, or the proceeds thereof, shall be paid pro rata in accordance with the full respective amounts which would be payable on such shares if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full. 

  
 4 








 (c) For purposes of this Section 5, the merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or
into any other corporation or other entity, or the sale, conveyance, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, shall not constitute a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation. 

Section 6. Voting Rights. 

(a) Except as otherwise required by law, the holders of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to (i) vote as a class
on all matters adversely affecting the rights of holders of Series A Preferred Stock, (ii) vote with the holders of the Common Stock on all matters submitted for a vote of holders of Common Stock (subject to the Stockholder Rights Agreement,
dated as of [●], 2015, by and between the Corporation and BCP IV Graftech Holdings LP (as may be amended from time to time, the “Stockholder Rights Agreement”) with respect to the election of directors), (iii) a
number of votes per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which each such share of Series A Preferred Stock is then convertible at the time of the related record date, (iv) notice of all
stockholders’ meetings (or pursuant to any action by written consent) in accordance with the Certificate and the Amended and Restated By-laws of the Corporation (the “By-Laws”) as if the holders of Series A Preferred Stock were
holders of Common Stock and (v) so long as (i) the Approved Holders (as defined in the Stockholder Rights Agreement) have the right to designate a director pursuant to the Stockholder Rights Agreement and (ii) the Approved Holders are
the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, vote as a class on the election of directors as described in Section 6(c). 

(b) For so long as the Outstanding Preferred Percentage is at least 25%, the Corporation shall not and shall not permit any direct or indirect
Subsidiary of the Corporation to, without first obtaining the written consent or affirmative vote at a meeting called for that purpose of holders of a majority of outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Majority
Holders”), take any of the following actions: 
 (1) Any change, amendment, alteration or repeal (including as a
result of a merger, consolidation, or other similar or extraordinary transaction) of any provisions of the Certificate or By-Laws that adversely amends, modifies or affects the rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers of the Series A
Preferred Stock; or 
 (2) Any authorization, issuance or reclassification of stock (other than the conversion of the Series
B Preferred Stock into the Series A Preferred Stock) that would rank equal or senior to the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to the redemption, liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation or with respect to dividend rights. 

(c) (i) For so long as the Majority Approved Holders (as defined in the Stockholder Rights Agreement) have the right to designate one
director pursuant to the Stockholder Rights Agreement, the Majority Holders shall have the right to elect one member of the board of 

  
 5 








 
directors of the Company at any meeting of stockholders of the Company at which directors are to be elected, designated or appointed, except such meetings for the purpose of filling vacancies or
newly created directorships, voting as a separate class or by execution of a written consent in lieu of such meeting, and (ii) for so long as the Majority Approved Holders have the right to designate two directors pursuant to the Stockholder
Rights Agreement, the Majority Holders shall have the right to elect two members of the board of directors of the Company at any meeting of stockholders of the Company at which directors are to be elected, designated or appointed, except such
meetings for the purpose of filling vacancies or newly created directorships, voting as a separate class or by execution of a written consent in lieu of such meeting. 

(d) In the event of the death, disability, resignation or removal of a director elected, designated or appointed by the Majority Holders, the
Majority Holders may, to the extent the Majority Approved Holders (as defined in the Stockholder Rights Agreement) have the right to designate a director pursuant to the Stockholder Rights Agreement, elect or appoint a replacement director to fill
the resulting vacancy; provided that if a director elected by the Majority Holders is removed for cause, the replacement director will not be the same person who was removed. Other than for cause, a director elected, designated or appointed by the
Majority Holders may not be removed by the Board or the stockholders of the Corporation without the prior written consent of the Majority Holders. 

(e) The Corporation will at all times provide the directors elected by the Majority Holders with the same rights to indemnification that it
provides to the other members of the Board. The directors elected by the Majority Holders shall each receive director fees and rights to expense reimbursement that are no less favorable to them than the fees and reimbursement provided to any other
non-management director (in their capacity as directors). 
 Section 7. Conversion. 

(a) Conversion. At any time, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right, at such holder’s option, to convert any
or all of such holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock, and the shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be converted shall be converted into (i) a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of the aggregate Stated Value of the
shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be converted divided by $1,000 multiplied by the Conversion Rate then in effect, plus (ii) cash in lieu of fractional shares, as set out in Section 9(i), plus an amount in cash per share of Series A
Preferred Stock equal to accrued but unpaid dividends on such share from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to but excluding the applicable Conversion Date to the extent not added to Stated Value, out of funds legally
available therefor. 
 (b) Conversion Rate. The “Conversion Rate” means 200 shares, subject to adjustment in
accordance with the provisions of this Certificate of Designations. 
 (c) Conversion Procedures. A holder must do each of the
following in order to convert its shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 7: 
 (1) complete and
manually sign the conversion notice provided by the Conversion Agent, and deliver such notice to the Conversion Agent; 

  
 6 








 (2) deliver to the Conversion Agent the certificate or certificates representing
the shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be converted (or, if such certificate or certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost certificate affidavit and indemnity in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Corporation); 

(3) if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the
Corporation; and 
 (4) if required, pay any stock transfer, documentary, stamp or similar taxes not payable by the
Corporation pursuant to Section 7(g). 
 The “Conversion Date” means the date on which a holder complies in all
respects with the procedures set forth in this Section 7(c). 
 (d) Effect of Conversion. Effective immediately prior to the
Close of Business on the Conversion Date applicable to any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, dividends shall no longer accrue or be declared on any such shares of Series A Preferred Stock and such shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall cease to
be outstanding. 
 (e) Record Holder of Underlying Securities as of Conversion Date. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the
Common Stock and, to the extent applicable, cash, issuable upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock on a Conversion Date shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of such shares of Common Stock and/or cash as of the Close of
Business on such Conversion Date. As promptly as practicable on or after the Conversion Date and compliance by the applicable holder with the relevant conversion procedures contained in Section 7(c) (and in any event no later than three Trading
Days thereafter), the Corporation shall issue the number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion (and deliver payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares). Such delivery of shares of Common Stock and, if applicable, cash, shall be
made, at the option of the applicable holder, in certificated form or by book-entry. Any such certificate or certificates shall be delivered by the Corporation to the appropriate holder on a book-entry basis or by mailing certificates evidencing the
shares to the holders at their respective addresses as set forth in the conversion notice. If fewer than all of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by any holder hereto are converted pursuant to Section 7(b), then a new certificate
representing the unconverted shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be issued to such holder concurrently with the issuance of the certificates (or book-entry shares) representing the applicable shares of Common Stock. In the event that a holder
shall not by written notice designate the name in which shares of Common Stock and, to the extent applicable, cash to be delivered upon conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock should be registered or paid, or the manner in which such shares
and, if applicable, cash should be delivered, the Corporation shall be entitled to register and deliver such shares and, if applicable, cash in the name of the holder and in the manner shown on the records of the Corporation. 

(f) Status of Converted or Acquired Shares. Shares of Series A Preferred Stock duly converted in accordance with this Certificate of
Designations, or otherwise acquired by the 

  
 7 








 
Corporation in any manner whatsoever, shall be retired promptly after the acquisition thereof. All such shares shall upon their retirement and any filing required by the Delaware General
Corporation Law become authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without designation as to series until such shares are once more designated as part of a particular series by the Board pursuant to the provisions of the Certificate of
Incorporation. 
 (g) Taxes. 

(1) The Corporation and its paying agent shall be entitled to withhold taxes on all payments on the Series A Preferred Stock or
Common Stock or other securities issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock to the extent required by law. Prior to the date of any such payment, the Corporation shall request and, upon request, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock
shall deliver to the Corporation or its paying agent a duly executed, valid, accurate and properly completed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or an appropriate Internal Revenue Service Form W-8, as applicable. 

(2) Absent a change in law or Internal Revenue Service practice, or a contrary determination (as defined in
Section 1313(a) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)), each holder of Series A Preferred Stock and the Corporation agree not to treat the Series A Preferred Stock (based on their terms as
set forth in this Certificate of Designations) as “preferred stock” within the meaning of Section 305 of the Code, and Treasury Regulation Section 1.305-5 for United States federal income tax and withholding tax purposes and
shall not take any position inconsistent with such treatment. 
 (3) The Corporation shall pay any and all documentary, stamp
and similar issuance or transfer tax due on (x) the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock and (y) the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock. However, in the case of conversion of Series A
Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax or duty that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock in a name other than that of the
holder of the shares to be converted, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issuance has paid to the Corporation the amount of any such tax or duty, or has established to the satisfaction of the
Corporation that such tax or duty has been paid. 
 (4) Each holder of Series A Preferred Stock and the Corporation agree to
cooperate with each other in connection with any redemption of part of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock and to use good faith efforts to structure such redemption so that such redemption may be treated as a sale or exchange pursuant to
Section 302 of the Code; provided that nothing in this Section 7(g) shall require the Corporation to purchase any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, and provided further that the Corporation makes no representation or
warranty in this Section 7(g) regarding the tax treatment of any redemption of Series A Preferred Stock. 

  
 8 








 Section 8. Redemption and Repurchase. 

(a) Optional Redemption. 

(1) The Series A Preferred Stock may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at any time on or after the seventh anniversary of the
Issue Date, at the option of the Corporation, upon giving notice of redemption pursuant to Section 8(d), at a redemption price per share equal to the sum of the Stated Value per share of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed plus an
amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid dividends on such share of Series A Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to but excluding the date of redemption. 

(2) The Series A Preferred Stock may be redeemed in whole or in part, if, at any time after the fourth anniversary of the Issue
Date, the daily volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Common Stock equals or exceeds 175.0% of the Conversion Price then in effect for at least 40 Trading Days during a period of 60 consecutive Trading Days, at the option of
the Corporation, upon giving notice of redemption pursuant to Section 8(d), at a redemption price per share equal to the sum of the Stated Value per share of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed plus an amount per share equal to accrued
but unpaid dividends on such share of Series A Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to but excluding the date of redemption.

(3) For the avoidance of doubt, holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to convert all or a portion of the
Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 7(a) at any time prior to the date fixed for redemption. 
 (b) Repurchase at the
Option of the Holder Upon a Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to require the Corporation to repurchase, by irrevocable, written notice to the
Corporation, all or any portion of such holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a purchase price per share equal to the value calculated in accordance with the applicable formula as set forth on Annex 1 (the “Fair
Value”). 
 Within thirty (30) days of the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Corporation shall send notice by first class
mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the holders of record of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock at their respective last addresses appearing on the books of the Corporation stating (1) that a Change of Control has occurred, (2) that
all shares of Series A Preferred Stock tendered prior to a specified Business Day no earlier than thirty (30) days nor later than sixty (60) days from the date such notice is mailed shall be accepted for repurchase and (3) the
procedures that holders of the Series A Preferred Stock must follow in order for their shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be repurchased, including the place or places where certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for payment of the
repurchase price. Any notice mailed as provided in this subsection shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the holder receives such notice, but failure duly to give such notice by mail, or any defect in such notice or
in the mailing thereof, to any holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock designated for repurchase shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other shares of Series A Preferred Stock. 

  
 9 








 (c) Mandatory Redemption. For a six (6)-month period (the “Mandatory Redemption
Period”) beginning on the seventh anniversary of the Issue Date (the “Initial Mandatory Redemption Date”), a holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock may irrevocably elect to require the Corporation to repurchase all or
any portion of such holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with the next succeeding sentence by giving irrevocable, written notice to the Corporation at a repurchase price per share, payable in cash, equal to the sum of
(1) the Stated Value per share of the Series A Preferred Stock plus (2) an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid dividends from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to but excluding the date of repurchase;
provided that the Corporation shall provide written notice of the Initial Mandatory Redemption Date to each holder of record of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock not more than thirty (30) days in advance of the Initial Mandatory
Redemption Date; provided further, that if the Corporation fails to provide such notice in a timely manner, the Mandatory Redemption Period shall be extended until the date which is the six-month anniversary of the delivery of such notice but
in no event earlier than the Initial Mandatory Redemption Date. Such notice shall state the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be repurchased and the date of repurchase, which shall be at least five (5) but no more than twenty
(20) Business Days following the delivery of such notice. Any notice mailed as provided in this subsection shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the holder receives such notice, but failure duly to give such
notice by mail, or any defect in such notice or in the mailing thereof, to any holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock designated for repurchase shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other shares of Series A
Preferred Stock. 
 (d) Notice of Redemption at the Option of the Corporation. Notice of every redemption of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 8(a) shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the holders of record of the shares to be redeemed at their respective last addresses appearing on the books of the Corporation. Such
mailing shall be at least thirty (30) days and not more than sixty (60) days before the date fixed for redemption. Any notice mailed as provided in this Section 8(d) shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or
not the holder receives such notice, but failure duly to give such notice by mail, or any defect in such notice or in the mailing thereof, to any holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock designated for redemption shall not affect the validity of
the proceedings for the redemption of any other shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Each notice of redemption given to a holder shall state: (1) the redemption date; (2) the number of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed
and, if less than all the shares held by such holder are to be redeemed, the number of such shares to be redeemed from such holder; (3) the redemption price; and (4) the place or places where certificates for such shares are to be
surrendered for payment of the redemption price. For the avoidance of doubt, holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to convert all or a portion of the Series A Preferred Stock at any time prior to the date fixed for redemption.

 (e) Partial Redemption. In case of any redemption of part of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock at the time outstanding
pursuant to Section 8(a), the shares to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata. Subject to the provisions hereof, the Corporation shall have full power and 

  
 10 








 
authority to prescribe the terms and conditions upon which shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be redeemed from time to time. If fewer than all the shares represented by any certificate are
redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued representing the unredeemed shares without charge to the holder thereof. 
 (f) Effectiveness
of Redemption. If notice of redemption has been duly given under Section 8(d) and if on or before the redemption date specified in the notice all funds necessary for the redemption have been deposited by the Corporation, in trust for the
pro rata benefit of the holders of the shares called for redemption, with a bank or trust company doing business in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and having a capital and surplus of at least $500 million and selected by the
Board, so as to be and continue to be available solely therefor, then, notwithstanding that any certificate for any share so called for redemption has not been surrendered for cancellation, on and after the redemption date specified in the notice
dividends shall cease to accrue on all shares so called for redemption, all shares so called for redemption shall no longer be deemed outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares (including voting and consent rights) shall forthwith on
such redemption date specified in the notice cease and terminate, except that the right of the holders thereof to receive the amount payable on such redemption from such bank or trust company, without interest shall survive such cessation and
termination. Any funds unclaimed at the end of three years from the redemption date specified in the notice shall, to the extent permitted by law, be released to the Corporation, after which time the holders of the shares so called for redemption
shall look only to the Corporation for payment of the redemption price of such shares. 
 Section 9. Anti-Dilution
Provisions. 
 (a) Adjustments. The Conversion Rate will be subject to adjustment, without duplication, under the
following circumstances: 
 (1) the issuance of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution to all or substantially all
holders of Common Stock, to the extent that an equivalent Participating Dividend was not distributed to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, or a subdivision or combination of Common Stock or a reclassification of Common Stock into a greater or
lesser number of shares of Common Stock, in which event the Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula: 
  

 
 



 
 where, 

CR0 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Close of
Business on (i) the Record Date for such dividend or distribution, or (ii) the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification; 

CR1 = the new Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Close of
Business on (i) the Record Date for such dividend or distribution, or (ii) the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification; 

  
 11 








 OS0 = the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Close of Business on (i) the Record Date for such dividend or distribution or (ii) the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification; and 

OS1 = the number of shares of Common Stock that would be outstanding
immediately after, and solely as a result of, the completion of such event. 
 Any adjustment made pursuant to this clause (1) shall be
effective immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Trading Day immediately following the Record Date, in the case of a dividend or distribution, or the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification. If any such
event is declared but does not occur, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board announces that such event shall not occur, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such event had not been declared.

 (b) Calculation of Adjustments. All adjustments to the Conversion Rate shall be calculated by the Corporation to the nearest
1/10,000th of one share of Common Stock (or if there is not a nearest 1/10,000th of a share, to the next lower 1/10,000th of a share). No adjustment to the Conversion Rate will be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease
of at least one percent of the Conversion Rate; provided, however, that any such adjustment that is not required to be made will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment; provided, further that any such
adjustment of less than one percent that has not been made will be made upon any Conversion Date. 
 (c) When No Adjustment Required.

 (1) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9, the Conversion Rate will not be adjusted for the issuance of
Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or carrying the right to purchase any of the foregoing, or for the repurchase of Common Stock. 

(2) No adjustment of the Conversion Rate shall be made as a result of the issuance of, the distribution of separate
certificates representing, the exercise or redemption of, or the termination or invalidation of, rights pursuant to any stockholder rights plans. 

(3) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment to the Conversion Rate shall be made: 

(A) if such adjustment would cause the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock to be convertible in the aggregate into more than
19.9% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on the date hereof unless Stockholder Approval (as defined in the Investment Agreement) has been obtained; 

(B) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of
dividends or interest payable on securities of the Corporation and the investment of additional optional amounts in 

  
 12 








 
Common Stock under any plan in which purchases are made at market prices on the date or dates of purchase, without discount, and whether or not the Corporation bears the ordinary costs of
administration and operation of the plan, including brokerage commissions; 
 (C) upon the issuance of any shares of Common
Stock or options or rights to purchase such shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director, manager or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries or of any employee agreements or
arrangements or programs; 
 (D) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right, or
exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security outstanding as of the Issue Date; 
 (E) for a change in the par value of
the Common Stock; or 
 (F) for accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock. 

(d) Successive Adjustments. After an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 9, any subsequent event requiring an
adjustment under this Section 9 shall cause an adjustment to each such Conversion Rate as so adjusted. 
 (e) Multiple
Adjustments. For the avoidance of doubt, if an event occurs that would trigger an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 9 under more than one subsection hereof (other than where holders of Series A Preferred Stock are
entitled to elect the applicable adjustment, in which case such election shall control), such event, to the extent fully taken into account in a single adjustment, shall not result in multiple adjustments hereunder; provided, however,
that if more than one subsection of this Section 9 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment. 

(f) Other Adjustments. The Corporation may, but shall not be required to, make such increases in the Conversion Rate, in addition to
those required by this Section 9, as the Board considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or
warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reason. 
 (g)
Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as provided under this Section 9, the Corporation shall as soon as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of an event that requires such adjustment (or if the
Corporation is not aware of such occurrence, as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming so aware) or the date the Corporation makes an adjustment pursuant to Section 9(f): 

(1) compute the adjusted applicable Conversion Rate in accordance with this Section 9 and prepare and transmit to
the Conversion Agent an officer’s certificate setting forth the applicable Conversion Rate, the method of calculation thereof in reasonable detail, and the facts requiring such adjustment and upon which such adjustment is based; and 

(2) provide a written notice to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock of the occurrence of such event and a statement in
reasonable detail setting forth the method by which the adjustment to the applicable Conversion Rate was determined and setting forth the adjusted applicable Conversion Rate. 

  
 13 








 (h) Conversion Agent. The Conversion Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or
responsibility to any holder of Series A Preferred Stock to determine whether any facts exist that may require any adjustment of the applicable Conversion Rate or with respect to the nature or extent or calculation of any such adjustment when made,
or with respect to the method employed in making the same. The Conversion Agent shall be fully authorized and protected in relying on any officer’s certificate delivered pursuant to Section 9(h) and any adjustment contained therein and the
Conversion Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment unless and until it has received such certificate. The Conversion Agent shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of
Common Stock, or of any securities or property, that may at the time be issued or delivered with respect to any Series A Preferred Stock; and the Conversion Agent makes no representation with respect thereto. The Conversion Agent, if other than the
Corporation, shall not be responsible for any failure of the Corporation to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock pursuant to the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or
covenants of the Corporation contained in this Section 9. 
 (i) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be
delivered to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock upon conversion. In lieu of fractional shares otherwise issuable, holders of Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive an amount in cash equal to the fraction of a share of Common
Stock, multiplied by the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the applicable Conversion Date. In order to determine whether the number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered to a holder of Series A Preferred
Stock upon the conversion of such holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock will include a fractional share (in lieu of which cash would be paid hereunder), such determination shall be based on the aggregate number of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock of such holder that are being converted on any single Conversion Date. 
 (j) Reorganization Events. In the event of:

 (1) any reclassification, statutory exchange, merger, consolidation or other similar business combination of the
Corporation with or into another Person, in each case, pursuant to which the Common Stock (but not the Series A Preferred Stock) is changed or converted into, or exchanged for, cash, securities or other property of the Corporation or another person;

 (2) any sale, transfer, lease or conveyance to another Person of all or substantially all the property and assets of the
Corporation, in each case pursuant to which the Common Stock (but not the Series A Preferred Stock) is converted into cash, securities or other property; or 

(3) any statutory exchange of securities of the Corporation with another Person (other than in connection with a merger or
acquisition) or reclassification, recapitalization or reorganization of the Common Stock (but not the Series A Preferred Stock) into other securities, 

  
 14 








 (each of which is referred to as a “Reorganization Event”), each share of Series A Preferred
Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Reorganization Event will, without the consent of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock and subject to Section 9(k), remain outstanding but shall become convertible into, out of funds legally
available therefor, the number, kind and amount of securities, cash and other property (the “Exchange Property”) (without any interest on such Exchange Property and without any right to dividends or distribution on such Exchange
Property which have a record date that is prior to the applicable Conversion Date) that the holder of such share of Series A Preferred Stock would have received in such Reorganization Event had such holder converted its share of Series A Preferred
Stock into the applicable number of shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the effective date of the Reorganization Event, assuming that such holder is not a Person with which the Corporation consolidated or into which the Corporation merged or
which merged into the Corporation or to which such sale or transfer was made, as the case may be (any such Person, a “Constituent Person”), or an Affiliate of a Constituent Person to the extent such Reorganization Event provides for
different treatment of Common Stock held by Affiliates of the Corporation and non-Affiliates; provided that if the kind or amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such Reorganization Event is not the same for each share
of Common Stock held immediately prior to such Reorganization Event by a Person other than a Constituent Person or an Affiliate thereof, then for the purpose of this Section 9(j), the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property
receivable upon such Reorganization Event will be deemed to be the weighted average, as determined by the Corporation in good faith, of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock. Any notice mailed as provided in
this subsection shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the holder receives such notice, but failure duly to give such notice by mail, or any defect in such notice or in the mailing thereof, to any holder of shares of
Series A Preferred Stock designated for repurchase shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other shares of Series A Preferred Stock. 

(k) Exchange Property Election. In the event that the holders of the shares of Common Stock have the opportunity to elect the form of
consideration to be received in such transaction, the Exchange Property that the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive shall be determined by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock
on or before the earlier of (i) the deadline for elections by holders of Common Stock and (ii) two Business Days before the anticipated effective date of such Reorganization Event. The number of units of Exchange Property for each share of
Series A Preferred Stock converted following the effective date of such Reorganization Event shall be determined from among the choices made available to the holders of the Common Stock and based on the per share amount as of the effective date of
the Reorganization Event, determined as if the references to “share of Common Stock” in this Certificate of Designations were to “units of Exchange Property.” 

(l) Successive Reorganization Events. The above provisions of Section 9(j) and Section 9(k) shall similarly apply to
successive Reorganization Events and the provisions of Section 9 shall apply to any shares of Capital Stock (or capital stock of any other issuer) received by the holders of the Common Stock in any such Reorganization Event. 

  
 15 








 (m) Reorganization Event Notice. The Corporation (or any successor) shall, no less than
twenty (20) Business Days prior to the occurrence of any Reorganization Event, provide written notice to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock of such occurrence of such event and of the kind and amount of the cash, securities or other
property that constitutes the Exchange Property. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the operation of this Section 9. 

(n) The Corporation shall not enter into any agreement for a transaction constituting a Reorganization Event unless (i) such agreement
provides for or does not interfere with or prevent (as applicable) conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock into the Exchange Property in a manner that is consistent with and gives effect to this Section 9, and (ii) to the extent that
the Corporation is not the surviving corporation in such Reorganization Event or will be dissolved in connection with such Reorganization Event, proper provision shall be made in the agreements governing such Reorganization Event for the conversion
of the Series A Preferred Stock into stock of the Person surviving such Reorganization Event or such other continuing entity in such Reorganization Event, or in the case of a Reorganization Event described in Section 9(j)(2), an exchange of
Series A Preferred Stock for the stock of the Person to whom the Corporation’s assets are conveyed or transferred, having voting powers, preferences, and relative, participating, optional or other special rights as nearly equal as possible to
those provided in this Certificate of Designations. 
 Section 10. Reservation of Shares. The Corporation shall at all times
when the Series A Preferred Stock shall be outstanding reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, for issuance upon the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock, such number of its authorized but unissued Common Stock as will from time
to time be sufficient to permit the conversion of all outstanding Series A Preferred Stock. Prior to the delivery of any securities which the Corporation shall be obligated to deliver upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Corporation
shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations which require action to be taken by the Corporation.

 Annex 1 

Fair Value Calculations 
 Annex 1

  
 The basis for the Fair Value Top-Up Payment
will be the Black Scholes Option Valuation methodology as described below: 
 Call Value (CV) = SN (d1) – Ke–rtN(d2) 

where by, 
 S = The Change of Control
price 
 K = The conversion price 

t = The time to option expiration (put date) 

r = ln(1+r’) where r’ = US Treasury with closest
maturity to option expiration (put date) 
 N = The Normal Distribution of d1 amd d2 where, as defined below, 
  





 
 s = Volatility of the underlying
security 
 The Fair Value Top-Up Payment will then be calculated as follows: 

Fair Value Top-Up Payment = Net Option Value * Conversion Ratio * Preferred Shares Outstanding  

* (% of Fair Value Top – Up Applicable Percentage) 

where by, 
 Net Option Value = Call
Value – In the Money Value where, 
 In the Money Value = S – K 

 
 



 
 Fair Value Top – Up Applicable Percentage = one of the following scenarios: 

 

	(i)	Change of Control on or after 2nd anniversary of the date of the Investment Agreement: 


Fair Value Top – Up Applicable Percentage = 100% 
  

	(ii)	Change of Control before 2nd anniversary of the date of the Investment Agreement not initiated by an Approved Holder (as defined in the Investment Agreement) or any of their respective Affiliates (as defined
in the Investment Agreement): 

 Fair Value Top – Up Applicable Percentage = 100% 

 

	(iii)	Change of Control before 2nd anniversary of the date of the Investment Agreement initiated by Approved Holder (as defined in the Investment Agreement) or any of their respective Affiliates (as defined in the
Investment Agreement): 

 Fair Value Top – Up Applicable Percentage = 25% 

 

	(iv)	Change of Control during Go-Shop Period (or Go-Shop Extension) (each as defined in that certain letter of intent, dated as of April 29, 2015, by and between the Company and Brookfield Capital Partners Ltd.
regarding a proposed tender offer for the outstanding shares of the Common Stock) 

 Fair Value Top – Up Applicable
Percentage = 0% 
 A holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock would be entitled to the amount such holder would have received had they
converted such shares into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such transaction.

Preferred Stock,” and the number of shares constituting such series shall be [●] (the “Series B Preferred Stock”). The number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased by resolution of the Board
and the approval by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, voting as a separate class; provided that no decrease shall reduce the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock to a number less than
the number of shares of such series then outstanding. 
 Section 2. Currency. All Series B Preferred Stock shall be denominated
in United States currency, and all payments and distributions thereon or with respect thereto shall be made in United States currency. All references herein to “$” or “dollars” refer to United States currency. 

Section 3. Ranking. The Series B Preferred Stock shall, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up or
dissolution, rank senior to each other class or series of shares of the Corporation that the Corporation may issue in the future the terms of which do not expressly provide that such class or series ranks equally with, or senior to, the Series B
Preferred Stock, with respect to dividend rights and/or rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution, including, without limitation, the common stock of the Corporation, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) (such
junior stock being referred to hereinafter collectively as “Junior Stock”). 
  

	1 	NTD: The number of shares shall equal the difference between 150,000 and the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued. 








 The Series B Preferred Stock shall, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation,
winding up or dissolution, rank equally with each other class or series of shares of the Corporation that the Corporation may issue in the future the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series shall rank equally with the Series B
Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution (“Parity Stock”). 

The Series B Preferred Stock shall, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution, rank junior to
each other class or series of shares of the Corporation that the Corporation may issue in the future, the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series shall rank senior to the Series B Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights
and rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution. The Series B Preferred Stock shall also rank junior to the Corporation’s existing and future Indebtedness. 

For the avoidance of doubt, the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Corporation (the “Series A Preferred Stock”)
shall, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution, rank equally with the Series B Preferred Stock. 

Section 4. Dividends. 

(a) The holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board, out of any funds legally
available therefor, dividends per share of Series B Preferred Stock of an amount equal to (i) 7.0% per annum of the Stated Value (as herein defined) of each share of such Series B Preferred Stock then in effect, before any dividends shall
be declared, set apart for or paid upon the Junior Stock (the “Regular Dividends”), and (ii) the aggregate amount of any dividends or other distributions, whether cash or other property (but excluding dividends in kind), paid
on outstanding shares of Common Stock on a per share basis based on the number of shares of Common Stock a share of Series A Preferred Stock could be converted into on the applicable record date for such dividends or other distributions, assuming
such shares of Common Stock were outstanding on the applicable record date for such dividend or other distributions (the “Participating Dividends” and, together with the Regular Dividends, the “Dividends”). For
purposes hereof, the term “Stated Value” shall mean $1,000.00 per share of Series B Preferred Stock, as adjusted as described in Section 4(c) below. 

(b) Regular Dividends shall be payable quarterly in arrears on [January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1] of each
year (unless any such day is not a Business Day, in which event such Regular Dividends shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day, without accrual to the actual payment date), commencing on [July 1], 2015 (each such payment date being a
“Regular Dividend Payment Date”, and the period from the date of issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock to the first Regular Dividend Payment Date and each such quarterly period thereafter being a “Regular Dividend
Period”). The amount of Regular Dividends payable on the Series B Preferred Stock for any period shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. Participating Dividends shall be payable as and when
paid to the holders of shares of Common Stock (each such date being a “Participating Dividend Payment Date,” and, together with each Regular Dividend Payment Date, a “Dividend Payment Date”). 

  
 2 








 (c) Regular Dividends shall begin to accrue from the Issue Date and, if not declared, shall be
cumulative. Any Regular Dividend or portion thereof undeclared and accrued but unpaid on any Regular Dividend Payment Date shall be added to the Stated Value until, but only until, such Regular Dividend or portion thereof is paid in cash in full. If
at any time the Corporation does not pay any Regular Dividend in full on any scheduled Regular Dividend Payment Date, such Regular Dividends will accrue at an annual rate of 8.0% of the Stated Value from such scheduled Regular Dividend Payment Date
to the date that all accumulated Regular Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock have been paid in cash in full, and thereafter will accrue at an annual rate of 7.0%. For the avoidance of doubt, Regular Dividends shall accumulate whether or not in
any Regular Dividend Period there have been funds of the Corporation legally available for the payment of such dividends. Participating Dividends are payable on a cumulative basis once declared, whether or not there shall be funds legally available
for the payment thereon. 
 (d) Except as otherwise provided herein, if at any time the Corporation pays less than the total amount of
Dividends then accrued but unpaid with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock, such payment shall be distributed pro rata among the holders thereof based upon the Stated Value on all shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by each such holder as of
the record date for such payment. When Dividends are not paid in full upon the shares of Series B Preferred Stock, all Dividends declared on Series B Preferred Stock and any other Parity Stock shall be paid pro rata so that the amount of Dividends
so declared on the shares of Series B Preferred Stock and each such other class or series of Parity Stock shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio as accrued but unpaid Dividends (for the full amount of dividends that would be payable
for the most recently payable dividend period if dividends were declared in full on non-cumulative Parity Stock) on the shares of Series B Preferred Stock and such other class or series of Parity Stock bear to each other. 

(e) When and if declared, the Regular Dividends shall be paid in cash. 

(f) The Corporation shall not declare or pay any dividends on shares of Common Stock unless the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock then
outstanding, other than in the case of a dividend payable on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, shall simultaneously receive Participating Dividends on a pro rata basis as if the shares of Series B Preferred Stock had been converted into
shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 7 immediately prior to the record date for determining the stockholders eligible to receive such dividends. 

(g) Each Dividend shall be payable to the holders of record of shares of Series A Preferred Stock as they appear on the stock records of the
Corporation at the Close of Business on such record dates (each, a “Dividend Payment Record Date”), which (i) with respect to Regular Dividends, shall be not more than thirty (30) days nor less than ten (10) days
preceding the applicable Regular Dividend Payment Date, and (ii) with respect to Participating Dividends, shall be the same day as the record date for the payment of dividends or distributions to the holders of shares of Common Stock. 

(h) From and after the time, if any, that the Corporation shall have failed to pay all accrued but unpaid Regular Dividends for all prior
Regular Dividend Periods and/or declared and unpaid Participating Dividends in accordance with this Section 4, no dividends shall be 

  
 3 








 
declared or paid or set apart for payment, or other distribution declared or made, upon any Junior Stock, nor shall any Junior Stock be redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired for any
consideration (nor shall any moneys be paid to or made available for a sinking fund for the redemption of any shares of any such Junior Stock) by the Corporation, directly or indirectly until all such Regular Dividends and/or Participating Dividends
have been paid in full, without the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to: 

(1) purchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of Junior Stock in connection with any employment contract, benefit
plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more employees, officers, directors, managers or consultants of or to the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries; 

(2) an exchange, redemption, reclassification or conversion of any class or series of Junior Stock for any class or series of
Junior Stock; or 
 (3) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the dividended stock or
the stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks equal or junior to that stock. 

Section 5. Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up. 

(a) Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation (each, a “Liquidation”),
after satisfaction of all liabilities and obligations to creditors of the Corporation and before any distribution or payment shall be made to holders of any Junior Stock, each holder of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, out of
the assets of the Corporation or proceeds thereof (whether capital or surplus) legally available therefor, an amount per share of Series B Preferred Stock equal to the greater of: 

(1) the Stated Value per share, plus an amount equal to any Regular Dividends accrued but unpaid thereon (whether or not
declared) plus declared but unpaid Participating Dividends, in each case, through the date of Liquidation; and 
 (2) the
payment such holders would have received had their shares of Series B Preferred Stock been converted into Series A Preferred Stock (at the then applicable Conversion Rate), pursuant to Section 7, immediately prior to such Liquidation, plus
declared but unpaid Participating Dividends through the date of Liquidation. 
 (the greater of (1) and (2) is referred to herein as the
“Liquidation Preference”). Holders of Series B Preferred Stock will not be entitled to any other amounts from the Corporation after they have received the full amounts provided for in this Section 5(a) and will have no right or
claim to any of the Corporation’s remaining assets. 
 (b) If, in connection with any distribution described in Section 5(a)
above, the assets of the Corporation or proceeds thereof are not sufficient to pay in full the Liquidation Preference payable on the Series B Preferred Stock and the corresponding amounts payable on the Parity Stock, then such assets, or the
proceeds thereof, shall be paid pro rata in accordance with the full respective amounts which would be payable on such shares if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full. 

  
 4 








 (c) For purposes of this Section 5, the merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or
into any other corporation or other entity, or the sale, conveyance, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, shall not constitute a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation. 

Section 6. Voting Rights. 

(a) The holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock will not have any voting rights, including the right to elect any directors, except
(i) the right to vote as a class on all matters adversely affecting the rights of holders of Series B Preferred Stock or (ii) any other voting rights required by law. 

(b) For so long as the Outstanding Preferred Percentage is at least 50%, the Corporation shall not and shall not permit any direct or indirect
Subsidiary of the Corporation to, without first obtaining the written consent or affirmative vote at a meeting called for that purpose of holders of a majority of outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock and Series A Preferred Stock, voting
together as a single class, take any of the following actions: 
 (1) Any change, amendment, alteration or repeal (including
as a result of a merger, consolidation, or other similar or extraordinary transaction) of any provisions of the Certificate or By-Laws that adversely amends, modifies or affects the rights, preferences, privileges or voting powers of the Series B
Preferred Stock; or 
 (2) Any authorization, issuance or reclassification of stock that would rank equal or senior to the
Series B Preferred Stock with respect to the redemption, liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation or with respect to dividend rights. 

Section 7. Conversion. 

(a) Mandatory Conversion. Effective as of the close of business on the Stockholder Approval Date, each share of Series B Preferred
Stock shall automatically, without any action of the holder, convert into one share of Series A Preferred Stock, plus an amount in cash per share of Series B Preferred Stock equal to accrued but unpaid dividends on such share from and including the
immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to but excluding the date of such conversion, out of funds legally available therefor. No Holder may convert shares of Series B Preferred Stock other than pursuant to this Section 7(a). 

(b) Conversion Procedures. 

(1) In the event of conversion pursuant to Section 7(a), the Corporation shall deliver as promptly as practicable written
notice to each holder specifying (A) the Stockholder Approval Date; and (B) the place or places where certificates or evidence of book-entry notation for such shares of Series B Preferred Stock are to be surrendered for issuance of
certificates or evidence of book-entry notation representing shares of Series A Preferred Stock; and 

  
 5 








 Unless the shares of Series A Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion are to be
issued in the same name as the name in which such shares of Series B Preferred Stock are registered, each share surrendered for mandatory conversion shall be accompanied by instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, duly
executed by the holder thereof or such holder’s duly authorized attorney and an amount sufficient to pay any transfer or similar tax in accordance with Section 7(f). 

The “Conversion Date” shall be the Stockholder Approval Date. 

(c) Effect of Conversion. Effective immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Conversion Date applicable to any shares of
Series B Preferred Stock, dividends shall no longer accrue or be declared on any such shares of Series B Preferred Stock and such shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall cease to be outstanding. 

(d) Record Holder of Underlying Securities as of Conversion Date. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the Series A Preferred
Stock and, to the extent applicable, cash, issuable upon conversion of Series B Preferred Stock on a Conversion Date shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock and/or cash as of the Close of
Business on such Conversion Date. As promptly as practicable on or after the Conversion Date (and in any event no later than three Trading Days thereafter), the Corporation shall issue the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock issuable upon
conversion. Such delivery of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and, if applicable, cash, shall be made in certificated form or by book-entry. Any such certificate or certificates shall be delivered by the Corporation to the appropriate holder on a
book-entry basis or by mailing certificates evidencing the shares to the holders at their respective addresses as set forth in the conversion notice. In the event that a holder shall not by written notice designate the name in which shares of Series
A Preferred Stock to be delivered upon conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock should be registered or paid, or the manner in which such shares and, if applicable, cash, should be delivered, the Corporation shall be entitled to register and
deliver such shares and, if applicable, cash, in the name of the holder and in the manner shown on the records of the Corporation. 
 (e)
Status of Converted or Acquired Shares. Shares of Series B Preferred Stock duly converted in accordance with this Certificate of Designations, or otherwise acquired by the Corporation in any manner whatsoever, shall be retired promptly after
the acquisition thereof. All such shares shall upon their retirement and any filing required by the Delaware General Corporation Law become authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without designation as to series until such shares are
once more designated as part of a particular series by the Board pursuant to the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation. 
 (f)
Taxes. 
 (1) The Corporation and its paying agent shall be entitled to withhold taxes on all payments on the Series B
Preferred Stock or the Series A Preferred Stock or other securities issued upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock to the extent required 

  
 6 








 
by law. Prior to the date of any such payment, the Corporation shall request and, upon request, each holder of Series B Preferred Stock shall deliver to the Corporation or its paying agent a duly
executed, valid, accurate and properly completed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or an appropriate Internal Revenue Service Form W-8, as applicable. 

(2) Absent a change in law or Internal Revenue Service practice, or a contrary determination (as defined in
Section 1313(a) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)), each holder of Series B Preferred Stock and the Corporation agree not to treat the Series B Preferred Stock (based on their terms as
set forth in this Certificate of Designations) as “preferred stock” within the meaning of Section 305 of the Code, and Treasury Regulation Section 1.305-5 for United States federal income tax and withholding tax purposes and
shall not take any position inconsistent with such treatment. 
 (3) The Corporation shall pay any and all documentary, stamp
and similar issuance or transfer tax due on (x) the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock and (y) the issuance of shares of Series A Preferred Stock upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. However, in the case of conversion of
Series B Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax or duty that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of shares of Series A Preferred Stock in a name other than that of the holder
of the shares to be converted, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issuance has paid to the Corporation the amount of any such tax or duty, or has established to the satisfaction of the
Corporation that such tax or duty has been paid. 
 (4) Each holder of Series B Preferred Stock and the Corporation agree to
cooperate with each other in connection with any redemption of part of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock and to use good faith efforts to structure such redemption so that such redemption may be treated as a sale or exchange pursuant to
Section 302 of the Code; provided that nothing in this Section 7(f) shall require the Corporation to purchase any shares of Series B Preferred Stock, and provided further that the Corporation makes no representation or
warranty in this Section 7(f) regarding the tax treatment of any redemption of Series B Preferred Stock. 
 Section 8.
Redemption and Repurchase. 
 (a) Optional Redemption. 

(1) The Series B Preferred Stock may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at any time on or after the seventh anniversary of the
Issue Date, at the option of the Corporation, upon giving notice of redemption pursuant to Section 8(d), at a redemption price per share equal to the sum of the Stated Value per share of the Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed plus an
amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid dividends on such share of Series B Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to but excluding the date of redemption. 

  
 7 








 (2) The Series B Preferred Stock may be redeemed in whole or in part, if, at any
time after the fourth anniversary of the Issue Date, the daily volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Common Stock equals or exceeds 175.0% of the Conversion Price then in effect for at least 40 Trading Days during a period
of 60 consecutive Trading Days, at the option of the Corporation, upon giving notice of redemption pursuant to Section 8(d), at a redemption price per share equal to the sum of the Stated Value per share of the Series B Preferred Stock to be
redeemed plus an amount per share equal to accrued but unpaid dividends on such share of Series B Preferred Stock from and including the immediately preceding Dividend Payment Date to but excluding the date of redemption. 

(3) For the avoidance of doubt, the Series B Preferred Stock shall convert into Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to
Section 7(a) upon occurrence of the Stockholder Approval Date prior to any date fixed for redemption. 
 (b) Repurchase at the
Option of the Holder Upon a Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, each holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the right to require the Corporation to repurchase, by irrevocable, written notice to the
Corporation, all or any portion of such holder’s shares of Series B Preferred Stock at a purchase price per share equal to the value calculated in accordance with the applicable formula as set forth on Annex 1 (the “Fair
Value”). 
 Within thirty (30) days of the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Corporation shall send notice by first class
mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the holders of record of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock at their respective last addresses appearing on the books of the Corporation stating (1) that a Change of Control has occurred, (2) that
all shares of Series B Preferred Stock tendered prior to a specified Business Day no earlier than thirty (30) days nor later than sixty (60) days from the date such notice is mailed shall be accepted for repurchase and (3) the
procedures that holders of the Series B Preferred Stock must follow in order for their shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be repurchased, including the place or places where certificates for such shares are to be surrendered for payment of the
repurchase price. Any notice mailed as provided in this subsection shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the holder receives such notice, but failure duly to give such notice by mail, or any defect in such notice or
in the mailing thereof, to any holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock designated for repurchase shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other shares of Series B Preferred Stock. 

(c) Mandatory Redemption. If the Stockholder Approval is not obtained by the date that is the later of (i) the date that is 180
days from the date of the Investment Agreement and (ii) the date that is 90 days from the Tender Offer Closing, a holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock may thereafter irrevocably elect to require the Corporation to repurchase all or any
portion of such holder’s shares of Series B Preferred Stock by giving irrevocable, written notice to the Corporation (a “Redemption Notice”) at a repurchase price per share, payable in cash, equal to the greater of (x) the
Stated Value and (y) the average trading price of the Common Stock for the 20 Trading Days immediately preceding the date of the Redemption Notice multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock into which a share of Series A
Preferred Stock would have been convertible. 

  
 8 








 (d) Notice of Redemption at the Option of the Corporation. Notice of every redemption of
shares of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 8(a) shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the holders of record of the shares to be redeemed at their respective last addresses appearing on the books of the
Corporation. Such mailing shall be at least thirty (30) days and not more than sixty (60) days before the date fixed for redemption. Any notice mailed as provided in this Section 8(d) shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly
given, whether or not the holder receives such notice, but failure duly to give such notice by mail, or any defect in such notice or in the mailing thereof, to any holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock designated for redemption shall not
affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other shares of Series B Preferred Stock. Each notice of redemption given to a holder shall state: (1) the redemption date; (2) the number of shares of the Series B Preferred
Stock to be redeemed and, if less than all the shares held by such holder are to be redeemed, the number of such shares to be redeemed from such holder; (3) the redemption price; and (4) the place or places where certificates for such
shares are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price. 
 (e) Partial Redemption. In case of any redemption of part of the
shares of Series B Preferred Stock at the time outstanding pursuant to Section 8(a), the shares to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata. Subject to the provisions hereof, the Corporation shall have full power and authority to prescribe
the terms and conditions upon which shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be redeemed from time to time. If fewer than all the shares represented by any certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued representing the unredeemed
shares without charge to the holder thereof. 
 (f) Effectiveness of Redemption. If notice of redemption has been duly given under
Section 8(d) and if on or before the redemption date specified in the notice all funds necessary for the redemption have been deposited by the Corporation, in trust for the pro rata benefit of the holders of the shares called for
redemption, with a bank or trust company doing business in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and having a capital and surplus of at least $500 million and selected by the Board, so as to be and continue to be available solely therefor,
then, notwithstanding that any certificate for any share so called for redemption has not been surrendered for cancellation, on and after the redemption date specified in the notice dividends shall cease to accrue on all shares so called for
redemption, all shares so called for redemption shall no longer be deemed outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares (including voting and consent rights) shall forthwith on such redemption date specified in the notice cease and
terminate, except that the right of the holders thereof to receive the amount payable on such redemption from such bank or trust company, without interest shall survive such cessation and termination. Any funds unclaimed at the end of three years
from the redemption date specified in the notice shall, to the extent permitted by law, be released to the Corporation, after which time the holders of the shares so called for redemption shall look only to the Corporation for payment of the
redemption price of such shares.

 Section 9. Anti-Dilution Provisions. 

(a) Reorganization Events. In the event of: 

(1) any reclassification, statutory exchange, merger, consolidation or other similar business combination of the Corporation
with or into another Person, in each case, pursuant to which the Series A Preferred Stock is changed or converted into, or exchanged for, cash, securities or other property of the Corporation or another person; 

(2) any sale, transfer, lease or conveyance to another Person of all or substantially all the property and assets of the
Corporation, in each case pursuant to which the Series A Preferred Stock is converted into cash, securities or other property; or 

(3) any statutory exchange of securities of the Corporation with another Person (other than in connection with a merger or
acquisition) or reclassification, recapitalization or reorganization of the Series A Preferred Stock into other securities, 
 (each of which is referred to
as a “Reorganization Event”), each share of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Reorganization Event will, without the consent of the holders of Series B Preferred Stock and subject to Section 9(b),
remain outstanding but shall become convertible into, out of funds legally available therefor, the number, kind and amount of securities, cash and other property (the “Exchange Property”) (without any interest on such Exchange
Property and without any right to dividends or distribution on such Exchange Property which have a record date that is prior to the applicable Conversion Date) that the holder of such share of Series B Preferred Stock would have received in such
Reorganization Event had such holder converted its share of Series B Preferred Stock into the applicable number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock immediately prior to the effective date of the Reorganization Event, assuming that such holder is
not a Person with which the Corporation consolidated or into which the Corporation merged or which merged into the Corporation or to which such sale or transfer was made, as the case may be (any such Person, a “Constituent Person”),
or an Affiliate of a Constituent Person to the extent such Reorganization Event provides for different treatment of Series A Preferred Stock held by Affiliates of the Corporation and non-Affiliates; provided that if the kind or amount of
securities, cash and other property receivable upon such Reorganization Event is not the same for each share of Series A Preferred Stock held immediately prior to such Reorganization Event by a Person other than a Constituent Person or an Affiliate
thereof, then for the purpose of this Section 9(j), the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such Reorganization Event will be deemed to be the weighted average, as determined by the Corporation in good faith,
of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock. Any notice mailed as provided in this subsection shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the holder receives such notice, but failure
duly to give such notice by mail, or any defect in such notice or in the mailing thereof, to any holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock designated for repurchase shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other
shares of Series B Preferred Stock. 
 (b) Exchange Property Election. In the event that the holders of the shares of Series A
Preferred Stock have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in such transaction, the Exchange Property that the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled 

  
 10 








 
to receive shall be determined by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock on or before the earlier of (i) the deadline for elections by holders of
Series A Preferred Stock and (ii) two Business Days before the anticipated effective date of such Reorganization Event. The number of units of Exchange Property for each share of Series B Preferred Stock converted following the effective date
of such Reorganization Event shall be determined from among the choices made available to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and based on the per share amount as of the effective date of the Reorganization Event, determined as if the
references to “share of Series A Preferred Stock” in this Certificate of Designations were to “units of Exchange Property.” 

(c) Successive Reorganization Events. The above provisions of Sections 9(a) and Section 9(b) shall similarly apply to successive
Reorganization Events and the provisions of Section 9 shall apply to any shares of Capital Stock (or capital stock of any other issuer) received by the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock in any such Reorganization Event. 

(d) Reorganization Event Notice. The Corporation (or any successor) shall, no less than twenty (20) Business Days prior to the
occurrence of any Reorganization Event, provide written notice to the holders of Series B Preferred Stock of such occurrence of such event and of the kind and amount of the cash, securities or other property that constitutes the Exchange Property.
Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the operation of this Section 9. 
 (e) The Corporation shall not enter into any
agreement for a transaction constituting a Reorganization Event unless (i) such agreement provides for or does not interfere with or prevent (as applicable) conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock into the Exchange Property in a manner that
is consistent with and gives effect to this Section 9, and (ii) to the extent that the Corporation is not the surviving corporation in such Reorganization Event or will be dissolved in connection with such Reorganization Event, proper
provision shall be made in the agreements governing such Reorganization Event for the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock into stock of the Person surviving such Reorganization Event or such other continuing entity in such Reorganization
Event, or in the case of a Reorganization Event described in Section 9(a)(2), an exchange of Series B Preferred Stock for the stock of the Person to whom the Corporation’s assets are conveyed or transferred, having voting powers,
preferences, and relative, participating, optional or other special rights as nearly equal as possible to those provided in this Certificate of Designations. 

Section 10. Reservation of Shares. The Corporation shall at all times when the Series B Preferred Stock shall be outstanding
reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, for issuance upon the conversion of Series B Preferred Stock, such number of its authorized but unissued Series A Preferred Stock as will from time to time be sufficient to permit the
conversion of all outstanding Series B Preferred Stock. Prior to the delivery of any securities which the Corporation shall be obligated to deliver upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall comply with all applicable
laws and regulations which require action to be taken by the Corporation. 
 Section 11. Notices. Except as otherwise
provided herein, any and all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is 


  
 11 








 
delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number specified in this Section prior to or at the Close of Business on a Business Day and electronic confirmation of receipt is received by the sender,
(ii) the next Business Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number specified in this Section on a day that is not a Business Day or later than the Close of Business on
any Business Day, (iii) the Business Day following the date of mailing, if sent by nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given. The addresses for
such communications shall be: (i) if to the Corporation, attention: Chief Executive Officer and General Counsel, or (ii) if to a holder of Series B Preferred Stock, to the address or facsimile number appearing on the Corporation’s
stockholder records or such other address or facsimile number as such holder may provide to the Corporation in accordance with this Section 11. 

Section 12. Certain Definitions. As used in this Certificate of Designations, the following terms shall have the following
meanings, unless the context otherwise requires: 
 “Affiliate” with respect to any person, any person directly or
indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with, such other person; provided, however, that (i) portfolio companies in which any person or any of its Affiliates has an investment shall not be deemed an Affiliate
of such person, or (ii) the Corporation, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of the Corporation’s other controlled Affiliates, in each case, will not be deemed to be Affiliates of the Brookfield Group for purposes of this Certificate of
Designations. For purposes of this definition, “control” (including, with correlative meanings, the terms “controlled by” and “under common control with”) when used with respect to any person, means the possession,
directly or indirectly, of the power to cause the direction of management or policies of such person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise. 

“Beneficially Own” shall mean “beneficially own” as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act or any successor
provision thereto. 
 “Brookfield Group” means Brookfield Capital Partners Ltd. and any of its Affiliates, any successor

 Annex 1 

Fair Value Calculations 
 Annex 1

  
 The basis for the Fair Value Top-Up Payment
will be the Black Scholes Option Valuation methodology as described below: 
 Call Value (CV) = SN(d1) – Ke–rtN(d2) 

where by, 
 S = The Change of Control
price 
 K = The conversion price 

t = The time to option expiration (put date) 

r = ln(1+r’) where r’ = US Treasury with closest maturity to option expiration (put date)

 N = The Normal Distribution of d1 amd d2 where, as defined below, 
  
 



 
 s = Volatility of the underlying security

 The Fair Value Top-Up Payment will then be calculated as follows: 

Fair Value Top-Up Payment = Net Option Value * Conversion Ratio * Preferred Shares Outstanding 

* (% of Fair Value Top – Up Applicable Percentage) 

where by, 
 Net Option Value = Call
Value – In the Money Value where, 
 In the Money Value = S – K 

 
 



 
 Fair Value Top – Up Applicable Percentage = one of the following scenarios: 

 

	(i)	Change of Control on or after 2nd anniversary of the date of the Investment Agreement: 


Fair Value Top – Up Applicable Percentage = 100% 
  

	(ii)	Change of Control before 2nd anniversary of the date of the Investment Agreement not initiated by an Approved Holder (as defined in the Investment Agreement) or any of their respective Affiliates (as defined
in the Investment Agreement): 

 Fair Value Top – Up Applicable Percentage = 100% 

 

	(iii)	Change of Control before 2nd anniversary of the date of the Investment Agreement initiated by Approved Holder (as defined in the Investment Agreement) or any of their respective Affiliates (as defined in the
Investment Agreement): 

 Fair Value Top – Up Applicable Percentage = 25% 

 

	(iv)	Change of Control during Go-Shop Period (or Go-Shop Extension) (each as defined in that certain letter of intent, dated as of April 29, 2015, by and between the Company and Brookfield Capital Partners Ltd.
regarding a proposed tender offer for the outstanding shares of the Common Stock) 

 Fair Value Top – Up Applicable
Percentage = 0% 
 A holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock would be entitled to the amount such holder would have received had they
converted such shares into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such transaction.

(a) Requests for Registration. Subject to the following paragraphs of this Section 3(a), one or more Shareholders shall have the
right, by delivering or causing to be delivered a written notice to the Company, to require the Company to register pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, under and in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act, the offer, sale and
distribution of the number of Registrable Securities requested to be so registered pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on Form S-3 (which, unless all Shareholders delivering such notice request otherwise, shall be (i) filed pursuant to Rule
415 under the Securities Act and (ii) if the Company is a Well-Known Seasoned Issuer at the time of filing such registration statement with the SEC, designated by the Company as an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement), if the Company is then
eligible for such short-form, or any similar or successor short-form registration (“Short-Form Registrations”) or, if the Company is not then eligible for such short form registration, on Form S-1 or any similar or successor
long-form registration (“Long-Form Registrations”) (any such written notice, a “Demand Notice” and any such registration, a “Demand Registration”), as soon as reasonably practicable after delivery
of such Demand Notice, but, in any event, the Company shall be required to make the initial filing of the Registration Statement within 30 days following receipt of such Demand Notice in the case of a Short-Form Registration or within 90 days
following receipt of such Demand Notice in the case of a Long-Form Registration; provided, however, that, unless a Shareholder requests to have registered all of its Registrable Securities, a Demand Notice for a Marketed Offering may
only be made if the sale of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered by such Shareholders is reasonably expected to result in aggregate gross cash proceeds in excess of $50,000,000 (without regard to any underwriting discount or
commission). Following receipt of a Demand Notice for a Demand Registration in accordance with this Section 3(a), the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file a Registration Statement in accordance with such Demand Notice as
promptly as reasonably practicable and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof. 

No Demand Registration shall be deemed to have occurred for purposes of this Section 3(a), and any Demand Notice delivered in connection
therewith shall not count as a Demand Notice for purposes of Section 3(e), if (x) the Registration Statement relating thereto (and covering not less than all Registrable Securities specified in the applicable Demand Notice for sale in
accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution specified in such Demand Notice) (i) does not become effective, or (ii) is not maintained effective for the period required pursuant to this Section 3 or (y) the
offering of the Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement is subject to a stop order, injunction, or similar order or requirement of the SEC during such period or (z) the conditions to closing specified in any underwriting
agreement, purchase agreement, or similar agreement entered into in connection with the registration relating to such request are not satisfied other than as a result of the Shareholders’ actions. 

  
 4 








 All requests made pursuant to this Section 3 will specify the number of Registrable
Securities to be registered and the intended method(s) of disposition thereof. 
 Except as otherwise agreed by all Shareholders with
Registrable Securities subject to a Demand Registration, the Company shall maintain the continuous effectiveness of the Registration Statement with respect to any Demand Registration until such securities cease to be Registrable Securities or such
shorter period upon which all Shareholders with Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement have notified the Company that such Registrable Securities have actually been sold. 

Within five business days after receipt by the Company of a Demand Notice pursuant to this Section 3(a), the Company shall deliver a
written notice of any such Demand Notice to all other holders of Registrable Securities, and the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 3(b), include in such Demand Registration all such Registrable Securities with respect to which
the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein (whether or not any of the Shareholders have exercised its, his or her conversion rights) within 10 business days after the date that such notice has been delivered; provided that such
holders must agree to the method of distribution proposed by the Shareholders who delivered the Demand Notice and, in connection with any underwritten registration, such holders (together with the Company and the other holders including securities
in such underwritten registration) must enter into an underwriting agreement in the form reasonably approved by the Company and the Shareholders holding the majority of the Registrable Securities. 

(b) Priority on Demand Registration. If any of the Registrable Securities registered pursuant to a Demand Registration are to be sold
in an underwritten offering, and the managing underwriter(s) advise the holders of such securities in writing that in its good faith opinion the total number or dollar amount of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in such offering is such as
to adversely affect the price, timing or distribution of such offering (including securities proposed to be included by other holders entitled to include such securities in such Registration Statement pursuant to incidental or piggyback registration
rights), then there shall be included in such underwritten offering the number or dollar amount of Registrable Securities that in the opinion of such managing underwriter(s) can be sold without adversely affecting such offering, and such number of
Registrable Securities shall be allocated as follows: 
 (i) first, pro-rata among the Shareholders of Registrable
Securities that have requested to participate in such Demand Registration on the basis of the percentage of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Registration Statement by such holders; 

(ii) second, pro-rata among any other holders entitled to include such securities in such Registration Statement
pursuant to piggyback registration rights; and 
 (iii) third, the securities for which inclusion in such Demand
Registration, as the case may be, was requested by the Company. 

  
 5 








 No Securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of the managing underwriter’s
marketing limitations shall be included in such offering. 
 (c) Postponement of Demand Registration. The Company shall be entitled
to postpone (but not more than once in any 12-month period), for a reasonable period of time not in excess of 75 days, the filing (but not the preparation) of a Registration Statement if the Company delivers to the Shareholders requesting
registration a certificate signed by an executive officer certifying that such registration and offering would (i) require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or (ii) materially interfere with any bona fide material financing,
acquisition, disposition or other similar transaction involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries then under consideration. Such certificate shall contain a statement of the reasons for such postponement and an approximation of the anticipated
delay. The Shareholders receiving such certificate shall keep the information contained in such certificate confidential subject to the same terms set forth in Section 6(o). If the Company shall so postpone the filing of a Registration
Statement, the Shareholders requesting such registration shall have the right to withdraw the request for registration by giving written notice to the Company within 10 days of the anticipated termination date of the postponement period, as provided
in the certificate delivered to the applicable Shareholders and, for the avoidance of doubt, upon such withdrawal, the withdrawn request shall not constitute a Demand Notice; provided that in the event such Shareholders do not so withdraw the
request for registration, the Company shall continue to prepare a Registration Statement during such postponement such that, if it exercises its rights under this Section 3(c), it shall be in a position to and shall, as promptly as practicable
following the expiration of the applicable deferral or suspension period, file or update and use its reasonable efforts to cause the effectiveness of the applicable deferred or suspended Registration Statement. 

(d) Cancellation of a Demand Registration. Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities that are to be registered in a
particular offering pursuant to this Section 3 shall have the right to notify the Company that they have determined that the registration statement be abandoned or withdrawn, in which event the Company shall abandon or withdraw such
registration statement; provided, that such Demand Notice underlying such abandonment or withdrawal shall not be deemed to be a Demand Notice for purposes of Section 3(e) if such Demand Notice is abandoned or withdrawn in response to a
material adverse change regarding the Company or a material adverse change in the financial markets generally. 
 (e) Number of Demand
Notices. In connection with the provisions of this Section 3, the Shareholders collectively shall have (i) three Demand Notices in connection with Marketed Offerings, which they are permitted to deliver (or cause to be delivered) to
the Company hereunder; provided, that in connection therewith the Company shall cause its officers to use their reasonable best efforts to support the marketing of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement (including
participation in “road shows”), and (ii) three additional Demand Notices (other than in connection with a Marketed Offering), which they are permitted to deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Company hereunder;
provided, that (A) in connection therewith the Company shall not be obligated to cause its officers to support the marketing of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement and such officers will not be obligated to
participate in any “road shows,” and (B) the Shareholders may not make more than two Demand Registration requests in any 365-day period. 

  
 6 








 Section 4. Piggyback Registration; Shelf Take Down. 

(a) Right to Piggyback. Except with respect to a Demand Registration, the procedures for which are addressed in Section 3, if the
Company proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of Common Stock, whether or not for sale for its own account and whether or not an underwritten offering or an underwritten registration (other
than a registration statement (i) on Form S-4, Form S-8 or any successor forms thereto or (ii) filed to effectuate an exchange offer or any employee benefit or dividend reinvestment plan), then the Company shall give prompt written notice
of such filing no later than five business days prior to the filing date (the “Piggyback Notice”) to all of the holders of Registrable Securities. The Piggyback Notice shall offer such holders the opportunity to include (or cause to
be included) in such registration statement the number of Registrable Securities as each such holder may request (each, a “Piggyback Registration”). Subject to Section 4(b), the Company shall include in each such Piggyback
Registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein (each a “Piggyback Request”) within 10 business days after notice has been given to the applicable holder.
The Company shall not be required to maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement for a Piggyback Registration beyond the earlier to occur of (x) 180 days after the effective date thereof and (y) consummation of the
distribution by the holders of the Registrable Securities (other than those making Piggyback Requests) included in such Registration Statement. 

(b) Priority on Piggyback Registrations. If any of the Registrable Securities to be registered pursuant to the registration giving rise
to the rights under this Section 4 are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the managing underwriter(s) of a proposed underwritten offering to permit holders of Registrable Securities
who have timely submitted a Piggyback Request in connection with such offering to include in such offering all Registrable Securities included in each holder’s Piggyback Request on the same terms and subject to the same conditions as any other
shares of capital stock, if any, of the Company included in the offering. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the managing underwriter(s) of such underwritten offering advise the Company in writing that it is their good faith opinion the total number
or dollar amount of securities that such holders, the Company and any other Persons having rights to participate in such registration, intend to include in such offering is such as to adversely affect the price, timing or distribution of the
securities in such offering, then there shall be included in such underwritten offering the number or dollar amount of securities that in the opinion of such managing underwriter(s) can be sold without so adversely affecting such offering, and such
number of Registrable Securities shall be allocated as follows: (i) first, all securities proposed to be sold by the Company for its own account; (ii) second, all Registrable Securities requested to be included in such
registration by the Shareholders pursuant to Section 4, pro rata among such holders on the basis of the percentage of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Registration Statement by such holders; and
(iii) third, all other securities requested to be included in such Registration Statement by other holders of securities entitled to include such securities in such Registration Statement pursuant to piggyback registration rights;
provided that any Shareholder may, prior to the earlier of the (i) effectiveness of the Registration Statement and (ii) time at which the offering price and/or underwriter’s discount are determined with the managing
underwriter(s), withdraw its request to be included in such registration pursuant to this Section 4. 

  
 7 








 (c) Shelf-Take Downs. At any time that a shelf registration statement covering Registrable
Securities pursuant to Section 3 or Section 4 (or otherwise) is effective, if any Shareholder delivers a notice to the Company (each, a “Take-Down Notice”) stating that it intends to sell all or part of its Registrable
Securities included by it on the shelf registration statement (each, a “Shelf Offering”), then, the Company shall amend or supplement the shelf registration statement as may be necessary in order to enable such Registrable
Securities to be distributed pursuant to the Shelf Offering (taking into account the inclusion of Registrable Securities by any other holders pursuant to this Section 4(c)). In connection with any Shelf Offering, including any Shelf Offering
that is a Marketed Offering: 
 (i) such proposing holder(s) shall also deliver the Take-Down Notice to all other holders of
Registrable Securities included on such shelf registration statement and permit each such holder to include its Registrable Securities included on the shelf registration statement in the Shelf Offering if such holder notifies the proposing holder(s)
and the Company within five days after delivery of the Take-Down Notice to such holder; and 
 (ii) if the Shelf Offering is
underwritten, in the event that the managing underwriter(s) of such Shelf Offering advise such holders in writing that it is their good faith opinion the total number or dollar amount of securities proposed to be sold exceeds the total number or
dollar amount of such securities that can be sold without having an adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the Registrable Securities to be included, then the managing underwriter(s) may limit the number of Registrable Securities
which would otherwise be included in such Shelf Offering in the same manner as described in Section 3(b) with respect to a limitation of shares to be included in a registration; 

provided, however, that each Shelf Offering that is a Marketed Offering initiated by a Shareholder shall be deemed to be a demand subject to the
provisions of Section 3(a) (subject to Section 3(d)), and shall decrease by one the number of Demand Notices the Shareholders are entitled to pursuant to Section 3(e)(i). 

Section 5. Restrictions on Public Sale by Holders of Registrable Securities. 

(a) If any registration pursuant to Section 3 or Section 4 of this Agreement shall be in connection with any: (i) Marketed
Offering (including with respect to a Shelf Offering pursuant to Section 4(c) hereof), the Company will cause each of its executive officers and directors to sign a customary “lock-up” agreement containing provisions consistent with
those contemplated pursuant to Section 5(b); and (ii) underwritten offering (including with respect to a Shelf Offering pursuant to Section 4(c) hereof), the Company will also not effect any public sale or distribution of any common
equity (or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for common equity) (other than a registration statement (A) on Form S-4, Form S-8 or any successor forms thereto or (B) filed solely in connection with an exchange offer
or any employee benefit or dividend reinvestment plan) for its own account, within 90 days (plus, a then customary “booster shot” extension to the extent required to permit research analysts to publish research reports compliant with
Rule 139 under the Securities Act pursuant to FINRA Rule 2711 (or a successor thereto)) after the date of the Prospectus for such offering except as may otherwise be agreed with the holders of the Registrable Securities in such offering. 

  
 8 








 (b) Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees with all other holders of Registrable
Securities and the Company in connection with any underwritten offering made pursuant to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 3 or Section 4, as applicable, if requested in writing by the managing underwriter or underwriters
in such offering, it will not (i) subject to customary exceptions, effect any public sale or distribution of any of the Company’s securities (except as part of such underwritten offering), including a sale pursuant to Rule 144 or any swap
or other economic arrangement that transfers to another Person any of the economic consequences of owning Common Stock, or (ii) give any Demand Notice during the period commencing on the date of the Prospectus pursuant to which such
underwritten public offering may be made and continuing for not more than 90 days after the date of such Prospectus (or Prospectus supplement if the offering is made pursuant to a “shelf” registration), plus a then customary “booster
shot” extension to the extent required to permit research analysts to publish research reports compliant with Rule 139 under the Securities Act pursuant to FINRA Rule 2711 (or a successor thereto). In connection with any underwritten offering
made pursuant to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 3 or Section 4, the Company, or, if Shareholders will be selling more Registrable Securities in the offering than the Company, Shareholders holding a majority of the
Registrable Securities shall be responsible for negotiating all “lock-up” agreements with the underwriters and, in addition to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5, the Shareholders agree to execute the form so negotiated;
provided, that the form so negotiated is reasonably acceptable to the Company or the Shareholders, as applicable, and consistent with the agreement set forth in this Section 5 and that the Company’s executive officers and directors
shall also have executed a form of agreement substantially similar to the agreement so negotiated, subject to customary exceptions applicable to natural persons. 

Section 6. Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required to effect the registration of any Registrable
Securities under the Securities Act as provided in Section 3 or Section 4, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect such registration to permit the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended
method or methods of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall cooperate in the sale of the securities and shall use its reasonable best efforts, as promptly as practicable to the extent applicable, to: 

(a) prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement or Registration Statements on such form as shall be available for the sale
of the Registrable Securities by the holders thereof or by the Company in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof and in accordance with this Agreement, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration
Statement to become effective and to remain effective as provided herein; provided, however, that before filing a Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto (including documents that would be
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference), the Company shall furnish or otherwise make available to the holders of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement, their counsel and the managing underwriters,
if any, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the reasonable review and comment of such counsel, and such other documents reasonably requested by such counsel, including any comment letter from the
SEC,  

  
 9 








 
and, if requested by such counsel, provide such counsel reasonable opportunity to participate in the preparation of such Registration Statement and each Prospectus included therein and such other
opportunities to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act, including reasonable access to the Company’s books and records, officers, accountants and other advisors. The Company shall not file any such
Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto (including such documents that, upon filing, would be incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein) with respect to a Demand Registration to which the
holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement, their counsel, or the managing underwriters, if any, shall reasonably object, in writing, on a timely basis, unless, in the opinion of the Company’s
counsel, such filing is necessary to comply with applicable law; 
 (b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective
amendments to each Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective during the period provided herein and comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to
the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement; and cause the related Prospectus to be supplemented by any Prospectus supplement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the
disposition of the securities covered by such Registration Statement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (or any similar provisions then in force) under the Securities Act; 

(c) notify each selling holder of Registrable Securities, its counsel and the managing underwriters, if any, promptly, and (if requested by
any such Person) confirm such notice 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 any request by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related Prospectus or for additional information, (iii) of the issuance by
the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, (iv) if at any time the Company has reason to believe that the representations and warranties of the
Company contained in any agreement (including any underwriting agreement) contemplated by Section 6(n) below cease to be true and correct, (v) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the
qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose, and (vi) if the Company has knowledge of the happening of any
event that makes any statement made in such Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in such
Registration Statement, Prospectus or documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein, not misleading, and that in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (which notice shall notify the selling holders only of the occurrence of such an event and shall provide no additional information regarding such event to the extent such information would
constitute material non-public information); 

  
 10 








 (d) prevent the issuance or obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of a
Registration Statement, or the lifting of any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction at the earliest date reasonably practicable; 

(e) if requested by the managing underwriters, if any, or the holders of a majority of the then outstanding Registrable Securities being sold
in connection with an underwritten offering, promptly include in a Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as the managing underwriters, if any, and such holders may reasonably request in order to permit the intended
method of distribution of such securities and make all required filings of such Prospectus supplement or such post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after the Company has received such request; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be required to take any actions under this Section 6(e) that are not, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, in compliance with applicable law; 

(f) furnish or make available to each selling holder of Registrable Securities, its counsel and each managing underwriter, if any, without
charge, at least one conformed copy of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and Prospectus supplements, if applicable, and each post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements (but excluding schedules, all documents
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and all exhibits, unless requested in writing by such holder, counsel or underwriter); provided that the Company may furnish or make available any such documents in electronic
format; 
 (g) deliver to each selling holder of Registrable Securities, its counsel, and the underwriters, if any, without charge, as many
copies of the Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of Prospectus) and each amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons may reasonably request from time to time in connection with the distribution of the Registrable Securities;
provided that the Company may furnish or make available any such documents in electronic format (other than, in the case of a Marketed Offering, upon the request of the managing underwriters thereof for printed copies of any such Prospectus
or Prospectuses); and the Company, subject to the last paragraph of this Section 6, hereby consents to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling holders of Registrable Securities and the
underwriters, if any, in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus and any such amendment or supplement thereto; 

(h) prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, register or qualify or cooperate with the selling holders of Registrable
Securities, the underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from such registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or
“blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any seller or underwriter reasonably requests in writing and to keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the period such
Registration Statement is required to be kept effective pursuant to this Agreement and to take any other action that may be necessary or advisable to enable such holders of Registrable Securities to consummate the disposition of such Registrable
Securities in such jurisdiction; provided, however, that the Company will not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where would not otherwise be 

  
 11 








 
required to qualify but for this Agreement or (ii) take any action that would subject it to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be subject but
for this Agreement; 
 (i) cooperate with, and direct the Company’s transfer agent to cooperate with, the selling holders of
Registrable Securities and the managing underwriters, if any, to facilitate the timely settlement of any offering or sale of Registrable Securities, including the preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any legends) or book-entry (not
bearing stop transfer instructions) representing Registrable Securities to be sold after receiving written representations from each holder of such Registrable Securities that the Registrable Securities represented by the certificates so delivered
by such holder will be transferred in accordance with the Registration Statement and, in connection therewith, if reasonably required by the Company’s transfer agent, the Company shall promptly after the effectiveness of the registration
statement cause an opinion of counsel as to the effectiveness of any Registration Statement to be delivered to and maintained with its transfer agent, together with any other authorizations, certificates and directions required by the transfer agent
which authorize and direct the transfer agent to issue such Registrable Securities without restriction upon sale by the holder of such shares of Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement; 

(j) upon the occurrence of, and its knowledge of, any event contemplated by Section 6(c)(vi) above, prepare a supplement or
post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to
the Purchaser of the Registrable Securities being sold thereunder, such that the Registration Statement will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein, not misleading, and the Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; 
 (k) prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement relating to the
Registrable Securities, provide a CUSIP number for the Registrable Securities; 
 (l) provide and cause to be maintained a transfer agent
and registrar for all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement from and after a date not later than the effective date of such Registration Statement; 

(m) cause all shares of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement to be listed on a national securities exchange if shares
of the particular class of Registrable Securities are at that time listed on such exchange, as the case may be, prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement; 

(n) enter into such agreements (including underwriting agreements in form, scope and substance as is customary in underwritten offerings and
such other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting agreements, including customary legal opinions and auditor “comfort” letters) and take all such other actions reasonably requested by the holders of a majority
of the Registrable Securities being sold in connection therewith (including those reasonably requested by the managing underwriters, if any) to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities; 

  
 12 








 (o) in connection with a customary due diligence review, make available for inspection by a
representative of the selling holders of Registrable Securities, any underwriter participating in any such disposition of Registrable Securities, if any, and any counsel or accountants retained by such selling holders or underwriter (collectively,
the “Offering Persons”), at the offices where normally kept, during reasonable business hours, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, and cause the
officers, directors and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries to supply all information and participate in customary due diligence sessions in each case reasonably requested by any such representative, underwriter, counsel or accountant in
connection with such Registration Statement, provided, however, that any information that is not generally publicly available at the time of delivery of such information shall be kept confidential by such Offering Persons unless
(i) disclosure of such information is required by court or administrative order or in connection with an audit or examination by, or a blanket document request from, a regulatory or self-regulatory authority, bank examiner or auditor,
(ii) disclosure of such information, in the reasonable judgment of the Offering Persons, is required by law or applicable legal process (including in connection with the offer and sale of securities pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
SEC), (iii) such information is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a non-permitted disclosure or failure to safeguard by such Offering Persons in violation of this Agreement or (iv) such information
(A) was known to such Offering Persons (prior to its disclosure by the Company) from a source other than the Company when such source, to the knowledge of the Offering Persons, was not bound by any contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of
confidentiality to the Company with respect to such information, (B) becomes available to the Offering Persons from a source other than the Company when such source, to the knowledge of the Offering Persons, is not bound by any contractual,
legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to the Company with respect to such information or (C) was developed independently by the Offering Persons or their respective representatives without the use of, or reliance on, information
provided by the Company. In the case of a proposed disclosure pursuant to (i) or (ii) above, such Person shall be required to give the Company written notice of the proposed disclosure prior to such disclosure (except in the case of
(ii) above when a proposed disclosure was or is to be made in connection with a Registration Statement or Prospectus under this Agreement and except in the case of clause (i) above when a proposed disclosure is in connection with a routine
audit or examination by, or a blanket document request from, a regulatory or self-regulatory authority, bank examiner or auditor); and 

(p) cooperate with each seller of Registrable Securities and each underwriter or agent participating in the disposition of such Registrable
Securities and their respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with the FINRA, including the use reasonable best efforts to obtain FINRA’s pre-clearance or pre-approval of the Registration Statement and applicable
Prospectus upon filing with the SEC. 
 Each holder of Registrable Securities as to which any registration is being effected shall furnish
to the Company in writing such information required in connection with such registration regarding such seller and the distribution of such Registrable Securities as the Company may, from time to time, reasonably request in writing as a condition
for any 

  
 13 








 
Registrable Securities to be included in the applicable registration hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, failure of any holder of Registrable Securities to furnish the Company with such
information as requested by the Company pursuant to the preceding sentence shall relieve the Company of any obligation hereunder to include the applicable Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement with respect to which such information
was requested. 
 Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees if such holder has Registrable Securities covered by such Registration
Statement that, upon receipt of any written notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 6(c) (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v), such holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable
Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement or Prospectus until such holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(j), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the
use of the applicable Prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in such Prospectus; provided, however, that the time
periods under Section 3 with respect to the length of time that the effectiveness of a Registration Statement must be maintained shall automatically be extended by the amount of time the holder is required to discontinue disposition of such
securities. 
 Section 7. Registration Expenses. All fees and expenses incurred by the Company and incident to the performance
of or compliance with this Agreement by the Company (including without limitation (i) all registration and filing fees (including fees and expenses with respect to (A) all SEC, stock exchange or trading system and FINRA registration,

holders of Registrable Securities, shall be borne by the Company, whether or not any Registration Statement is filed or becomes effective. All underwriters’ discounts and selling commissions, in each case related to Registrable Securities
registered in accordance with this Agreement, shall be borne by the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration pro rata among each other on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities so registered. In
addition, the Company shall be responsible for all of its internal expenses incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and
employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit and the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities on any securities exchange as required hereunder. 

  
 14 








 Section 8. Indemnification. 

(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall, without limitation as to time, indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, each holder of Registrable Securities whose Registrable Securities are covered by a Registration Statement or Prospectus, the officers, directors, partners, members, managers, shareholders, accountants, attorneys, agents and
employees of each of them, each Person who controls each such holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, partners, members, managers, shareholders,
accountants, attorneys, agents and employees of each such controlling person, each underwriter, if any, and each Person who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) such
underwriter, from and against any and all reasonably foreseeable losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including costs of preparation and reasonable attorneys’ fees and any legal or other fees or expenses actually incurred by such party
in connection with any investigation or Proceeding), expenses, judgments, fines, penalties, charges and amounts paid in settlement (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, in each case arising out of or based upon any untrue statement
(or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any Prospectus, offering circular, any amendments or supplements thereto, “issuer free writing prospectus” (as such term is defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act) or
other document (including any related Registration Statement, notification, or the like) incident to any such registration, qualification, or compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder applicable to the Company and (without
limitation of the preceding portions of this Section 8(a)) will reimburse each such holder, each of its officers, directors, partners, members, managers, shareholders, accountants, attorneys, agents and employees and each Person who controls
each such holder and the officers, directors, partners, members, managers, shareholders, accountants, attorneys, agents and employees of each such controlling person, each such underwriter, and each Person who controls any such underwriter, for any
reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal and any other expenses actually incurred in connection with investigating and defending or, subject to the last sentence of this Section 8(a), settling any such Loss or action, provided that
the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission by such holder or underwriter, but only if such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission
(or alleged omission) is made in such Registration Statement, Prospectus, offering circular, or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information regarding such holder of Registrable Securities furnished to the Company by
such holder of Registrable Securities or its authorized representatives expressly for inclusion therein. It is agreed that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 8(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Loss or
action if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). 

(b) Indemnification by Holder of Registrable Securities. Each holder of Registrable Securities shall indemnify, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, severally and not jointly with any other holders of Registrable Securities, the Company, its Subsidiaries, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of


  
 15 








 
the Exchange Act) and each their respective officers, directors, partners, members, managers, shareholders, accountants, attorneys, agents and employees from and against all Losses arising out of
or based on any untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Registration Statement, Prospectus, offering circular, any amendments or supplements thereto, “issuer free writing prospectus” (as such term is defined in Rule 433 under
the Securities Act) or other document, or any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and to reimburse the Company, its Subsidiaries, each Person who
controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and each their respective officers, directors, partners, members, managers, shareholders, accountants, attorneys, agents and
employees for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal or any other expenses actually incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such Loss or action, subject to the immediately following proviso, settling any such Loss or
action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is made in such Registration Statement, Prospectus, offering circular, any amendments or supplements thereto, “issuer free writing
prospectus” (as such term is defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act) or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information regarding such holder of Registrable Securities furnished to the Company by such holder of
Registrable Securities or its authorized representatives expressly for inclusion therein; provided, however, that the foregoing obligations shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Losses (or actions in respect
thereof) if such settlement is effected without the consent of such holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); and provided, further, that the liability of such holder of Registrable Securities shall be limited to the
net proceeds received by such selling holder from the sale of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement. 
 (c)
Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any Person shall be entitled to indemnity hereunder (each, an “Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall give prompt notice to the party from which such indemnity is sought
(each, an “Indemnifying Party”) of any claim or of the commencement of any Proceeding with respect to which such Indemnified Party seeks indemnification or contribution pursuant hereto; provided, however, that the
delay or failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation or liability except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been materially prejudiced by such delay or failure. The Indemnifying
Party shall have the right, exercisable by giving written notice to an Indemnified Party promptly after the receipt of written notice from such Indemnified Party of such claim or Proceeding, to, unless in the Indemnified Party’s reasonable
judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, assume, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, the defense of any such claim or Proceeding, with counsel reasonably satisfactory
to such Indemnified Party; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such claim or Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such
counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless: (i) the Indemnifying Party agrees to pay such fees and expenses; or (ii) the Indemnifying Party fails promptly to assume, or in the event of a conflict of interest cannot
assume, the defense of such claim or Proceeding or fails to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding, in which case the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to assume
the defense of such claim or proceeding at the Indemnifying Party’s expense; provided, further, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with 

  
 16 








 
any one such claim or Proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related claims or Proceedings in the same jurisdiction, arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be
liable for the fees and expenses of more than one firm of attorneys (together with appropriate local counsel) at any time for all of the Indemnified Parties. Whether or not such defense is assumed by the Indemnifying Party, such Indemnifying Party
will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld). The Indemnifying Party shall not consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not
include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, from all liability in respect of such claim or
litigation for which such Indemnified Party would be entitled to indemnification hereunder. All fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing
to defend such proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section 8) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, promptly upon receipt of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party (regardless of whether it is ultimately
determined that an Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder, provided, that the Indemnifying Party may require such Indemnified Party to undertake to reimburse all such fees and expenses to the extent it is finally
judicially determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification under this Section 8). 
 (d) Contribution. If
the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable to an Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses (other than in accordance with its terms), then each applicable Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified
Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Party, on
the other hand, in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and 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 Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent any such action, statement or omission.

 The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by
pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), an Indemnifying
Party that is a selling holder of Registrable Securities shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount that such Indemnifying Party has otherwise been, or would otherwise be, required to pay pursuant to Section 8(b) by
reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 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. 

  
 17 








 (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and
contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control. 

Section 9. Rule 144. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to: (i) file the reports required to be filed by it under
the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner, to the extent required from time to time to enable all holders to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitations of the exemption provided
by Rule 144; and (ii) so long as any Registrable Securities are outstanding, furnish holders thereof upon request (A) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities
Act, and of the Exchange Act and (B) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company (except to the extent the same is available on EDGAR). 

Section 10. Underwritten Registrations. In connection with any underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers
and managers shall be selected by the Shareholders holding the majority of Registrable Securities included in any Demand Registration, including any Shelf Offering, initiated by such Shareholders, subject to the reasonable satisfaction of the
Company. 
 Section 11. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified
or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given without the written consent of the Shareholders holding a majority of the Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent
to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of holders of Registrable Securities whose securities are being sold pursuant to a Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly
affect the rights of other holders of Registrable Securities may be given by holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold by such holders pursuant to such Registration Statement. 

(b) Notices. All notices required to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to be duly given if personally
delivered, telecopied and confirmed, or mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, or overnight delivery service with proof of receipt maintained, at the following address (or any other address that any such party may designate by written
notice to the other parties): If to the Company, to the address of its principal executive offices. If to any Shareholder, at such Shareholder’s address as set forth on the records of the Company. Any such notice shall, if delivered personally,
be deemed received upon delivery; shall, if delivered by telecopy, be deemed received on the first business day following confirmation; shall, if delivered by overnight delivery service, be deemed received the first business day after being sent;
and shall, if delivered by mail, be deemed received upon the earlier of actual receipt thereof or five business days after the date of deposit in the United States mail. 

(c) Successors and Assigns; Shareholder Status. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and
permitted assigns of each of the parties, 

  
 18 








 
including subsequent holders of Registrable Securities acquired, directly or indirectly, from the Shareholders in compliance with any restrictions on transfer or assignment; provided,
however, that (x) the Company may not assign this Agreement (in whole or in part) without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities and (y) such successor or assign shall not be entitled to
such rights unless the successor or assign shall have executed and delivered to the Company an Addendum Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto (which shall also be executed by the Company) promptly following the acquisition
of such Registrable Securities, in which event such successor or assign shall be deemed a Shareholder for purposes of this Agreement; provided, however, that a Shareholder may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement upon
written notice to the Company (i) if such assignment is in connection with (1) a transfer or sale of all or substantially all of the Registrable Securities held by such Shareholder or (2) a transfer or sale of at least one million
shares of Common Stock or Registrable Securities that represent at least one million shares of Common Stock on an “as-converted basis” (as adjusted after the date hereof for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and similar
transactions) or (ii) to any of its partners, members, equityholders, or Affiliates or one or more private equity funds sponsored or managed by an Affiliate. For the avoidance of doubt, if any Shareholder assigns some or all of its rights
hereunder to deliver a Demand Notice or a Take-Down Notice to any permitted assignee, such Shareholder shall, if such rights to deliver Demand Notices or Take-Down Notices are subject to limitations pursuant to this Agreement, including
Section 3(e) and the provisos to Section 4(c), no longer be entitled to exercise such rights, but only to the extent not assigned, and the exercise of such Demand Notice or Take-Down Notice by such assignee shall be subject to the
provisions of this Agreement, including Section 3(e) and the provisos to Section 4(c). Except as provided in Section 8 with respect to an Indemnified Party, nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be
construed to give any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under, in or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained. 

(d) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts and delivered by facsimile, pdf or other electronic
transmission with the same effect as if all signatory parties had signed and delivered the same original document, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 

(e) Headings; Construction. The section and paragraph headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall
not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Unless the context requires otherwise: (i) pronouns in the masculine, feminine and neuter genders shall be construed to include any other gender, and words in the singular
form shall be construed to include the plural and vice versa; (ii) the term “including” shall be construed to be expansive rather than limiting in nature and to mean “including, without limitation,”; (iii) references to
sections and paragraphs refer to sections and paragraphs of this Agreement; and (iv) the words “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder” and words of similar import refer to
this Agreement as a whole, including Exhibit A hereto, and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited. 
 (f)
Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. 

  
 19 








 (g) Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected,
impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their reasonable best efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or
restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid,
illegal, void or unenforceable. 
 (h) Entire Agreement. This Agreement, that certain Confidentiality Agreement, dated as of
March 20, 2015, by and between the Company and Brookfield Capital Partners LLC, that certain Stockholder Rights Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and between the Company and the Purchaser, the Investment Agreement, the Certificate of
Designations and that certain Certificate of Designations of the Company, setting forth the rights, privileges, preferences and restrictions of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, dated as of the date hereof, are intended by the parties as a
final expression of their agreement, and are intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein and therein. There are no restrictions,
promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein and therein, with respect to the registration rights granted by the Company with respect to Registrable Securities. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements
and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement shall not supersede the transfer restrictions in that certain Stockholder Rights Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and
between the Company and the Purchaser. 
 (i) Securities Held by the Company or its Subsidiaries. Whenever the consent or approval of
holders of a specified percentage of Registrable Securities is required hereunder, Registrable Securities held by the Company or its subsidiaries shall not be counted in determining whether such consent or approval was given by the holders of such
required percentage. 
 (j) Specific Performance; Further Assurances. The parties hereto recognize and agree that money damages may
be insufficient to compensate the holders of any Registrable Securities for breaches by the Company of the terms hereof and, consequently, that the equitable remedy of specific performance of the terms hereof will be available in the event of any
such breach. The parties hereto agree that in the event the registrations and sales of Registrable Securities are effected pursuant to the laws of any jurisdiction outside of the United States, such parties shall use their respective reasonable best
efforts to give effect as closely as possible to the rights and obligations set forth in this Agreement, taking into account customary practices of such foreign jurisdiction, including executing such documents and taking such further actions as may
be reasonably necessary in order to carry out the foregoing. 
 (k) Term. This Agreement shall terminate with respect to a
Shareholder on the date on which such Shareholder ceases to hold Registrable Securities; provided, that, such Shareholder’s rights and obligations pursuant to Section 8, as well as the Company’s obligations to pay expenses
pursuant to Section 7, shall survive with respect to any registration statement in 

  
 20 








 
which any Registrable Securities of such Shareholders were included. From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the consent of the Shareholders holding a majority
of the Registrable Securities, enter into any agreement with any Person giving, including any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company, any registration rights (i) the terms of which are more favorable than, senior to or
conflict with, the registration rights granted to the Shareholders hereunder or (ii) permitting such Person to exercise a demand registration right during the period expiring on the second anniversary of the date hereof; provided, that,
the Company may enter into an agreement granting such rights if such agreement provides the Shareholders with piggyback rights consistent with those granted to the Shareholders pursuant to Section 4, and, if such agreement contains any
underwriter cutbacks consistent with Section 4(b), then the Shareholders shall participate with such other holders on a pro rata basis; and provided, further, that the Company may enter into an agreement granting such demand
rights in connection with the issuance of securities of the Company pursuant to (i) a bona fide material acquisition, disposition or other similar transaction involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) the terms of any
employment agreement or arrangement or employee benefit plan of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) an exchange of indebtedness of the Company into equity and (iv) a proposed resale of convertible securities of the Company by any
holder thereof, in each case, to the extent that the entering into of such an agreement is customary in a transaction of the type contemplated. 

(l) Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of
the courts of the State of New York located in New York County and the federal courts of the United States of America located in New York County, and appropriate appellate courts therefrom, over any dispute arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, and each party hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such dispute or proceeding may be heard and determined in such courts. The parties hereby irrevocably waive, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby brought in such court or
any defense of inconvenient forum for the maintenance of such dispute. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a judgment in any such dispute may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. This
consent to jurisdiction is being given solely for purposes of this Agreement and is not intended to, and shall not, confer consent to jurisdiction with respect to any other dispute in which a party to this Agreement may become involved. 

Each of the parties hereto hereby consents to process being served by any party to this Agreement in any suit, action, or proceeding of the
nature specified in the paragraph above by the mailing of a copy thereof in the manner specified by the provisions of Section 11(b). 

EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT.

 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, representations, warranties and
agreements contained in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows: 

ARTICLE I 
 GOVERNANCE 

1.1 Board of Directors. 

(a) (i) For so long as the Approved Holders hold at least twenty-five percent (25%) but less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the
Original Preferred Shares, the Majority Approved Holders shall have the right to designate for nomination one (1) member of the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”); provided, that if the holders of the shares of
Series A Preferred Stock are entitled pursuant to Section 6 of the Series A Certificate to elect one (1) director, the designee provided for herein shall be the nominee for such position and (ii) for so long as the Approved Holders
hold at least seventy-five percent (75%) or more of the Original Preferred Shares, the Majority Approved Holders shall have the right to designate for nomination two (2) members of the Board; provided, that if the holders of the shares of
Series A Preferred Stock are entitled pursuant to Section 6 of the Series A Certificate to elect two (2) directors, the designees provided for herein shall be the nominees for such positions. In the event the Approved Holders do not hold
at least twenty-five percent (25%) or seventy-five percent (75%) of the Original Preferred Shares, as applicable, (i) the Approved Holders shall promptly (x) cause 

  
 -1- 








 
all members of the Board designated by the Majority Approved Holders for nomination to the Board (or one (1) member of the Board, if the Approved Holders hold at least twenty-five percent
(25%) but less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the Original Preferred Shares) to immediately tender their resignations from the Board, and (y) if such member or members of the Board do not resign, take all actions necessary to
remove the member or members from the Board to the extent permitted by applicable Law and (ii) the Approved Holders hereby expressly authorize the Company to remove such members (or one (1) member chosen by the Majority Approved Holders,
if the Approved Holders hold at least twenty-five percent (25%) but less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the Original Preferred Shares), to the extent permitted by applicable Law. 

(b) The Board shall recommend that such designees be included in the slate of nominees in the class to be elected or appointed to the Board
at the next (and each applicable subsequent) annual or special meeting of stockholders by (i) the Preferred Stockholders pursuant to Section 6(a)(v) of the Series A Certificate so long as such class vote exists and thereafter,
(ii) such other class to be elected or appointed to the Board at the next (and each applicable subsequent) annual or special meeting of the stockholders, subject in each case to such designee’s satisfaction of all applicable requirements
regarding service as a director of the Company under applicable Law and NYSE rules (or the rules of the principal market on which the Common Stock is then listed) regarding service as a director and such other criteria and qualifications for service
as a director applicable to all directors of the Company as in effect on the date thereof; provided, however, that in no event shall any such designee’s relationship with the Approved Holders or their Affiliates (or any other actual or
potential lack of independence resulting therefrom) be considered to disqualify such designee from being a member of the Board pursuant to this Section 1.1. 

(c) For so long as the Majority Approved Holders have the right to designate directors for nomination pursuant to Section 1.1(a):

 (i) the Company or the Board shall (i) to the extent necessary cause the Board to have sufficient vacancies to permit such persons
to be added as members of the Board, (ii) nominate such persons for election to the Board and (iii) recommend that the Company’s stockholders vote in favor of the persons designated for nomination by the Majority Approved Holders in
all subsequent stockholder meetings. In the event of the death, disability, resignation or removal of any person designated by the Majority Approved Holders as a member of the Board, subject to the continuing satisfaction of the applicable threshold
set forth in Sections 1.1(a), the Majority Approved Holders may designate a person satisfying the criteria and qualifications set forth in Section 1.1(b) to replace such person and the Company shall cause such newly designated
person to fill such resulting vacancy. So long as any person designated by the Majority Approved Holders as a member of the Board is eligible to be so designated in accordance with this Section 1.1, the Company shall not take any action
to remove such person as such a director without cause without the prior written consent of the Majority Approved Holders; 
 (ii) the
Board shall appoint at least one (1) of such designees as a member of each committee of the Board (excluding the special committee formed to handle the 2015 annual meeting of stockholders and any committee formed to review or approve of
transactions or matters involving conflicts of interest with a Holder), subject to compliance with NYSE 

  
 -2- 








 
(or the rules of the principal market on which the Common Stock is then listed) and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules regarding qualification and independence and the publicly
disclosed qualifications of such committee established by the Board prior to the date of this Agreement; 
 (iii) the Company or the Board
shall not delegate the general powers of the Board to any committee that does not include at least one (1) of the Majority Approved Holders’ designees to the Board as a member except the special committee formed to handle the 2015 annual
meeting of stockholders and any committee formed to review or approve of transactions or matters involving conflicts of interest with a Holder. 

(iv) each of the Majority Approved Holders’ designees for the Board shall be entitled to compensation consistent with the compensation
received by other members of the Board, including any fees and equity awards, and reimbursement for reasonable, out-of-pocket and documented expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Board and its committees; and 

(v) the Company shall provide the Majority Approved Holders’ designees for the Board with the same rights to indemnification and
advancement that it provides to the other members of the Board. 
 (d) For as long as the Approved Holders hold more than zero percent (0%)
but less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Original Preferred Shares, the Majority Approved Holders shall have the right to designate one (1) observer to the Board, with the person so designated subject to the approval of the Board,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, who shall have (i) the right to attend all meetings of the Board as an observer (but whose presence shall not be counted towards the Board’s quorum), (ii) the right to receive advance
notice of each meeting, including such meeting’s time and place, at the same time and in the same manner as such notice is provided to the members of the Board and (iii) the right to receive copies of all materials, including notices,
minutes, consents and regularly compiled financial and operating data distributed to the members of the Board at the same time as such materials are distributed to the Board; provided, however, the Company shall have the right to exclude such
observer or withhold such information to the extent such observer’s presence or receipt of such information could reasonably be expected to result in the loss of attorney-client privilege or any other privilege or a violation of antitrust,
export control or other Laws, breach of any confidentiality agreement or any other adverse consequence to the Company. The Board observer shall be bound by all applicable fiduciary duties and confidentiality, conflicts of interests, trading and
disclosure and other governance requirements of a director on the Board. 
 (e) For so long as twenty-five percent (25%) of the
Original Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Company shall not, without the prior written approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, increase the size of the Board in excess of eleven (11).

 ARTICLE II 

OTHER COVENANTS 
 2.1
Preemptive Rights. 
 (a) So long as a Stockholder and its Affiliates who are Permitted Transferees, collectively, hold at least
twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock (including Series A Preferred Stock issued upon conversion of Series B Preferred Stock), the Stockholders shall be entitled to the preemptive rights set forth in this
Section 2.1 with respect to any issuance of Common Stock or Equity-based Securities by the Company and, with respect to an issuance in connection with the sale of Equity-based Securities in an initial public offering, its current and
future Subsidiaries (each a “Group Company” and collectively, the “Group Companies”), other than a Permitted Issuance (a “Preemptive Rights Issuance”). 

(b) If the Company at any time or from time to time effects a Preemptive Rights Issuance, the Company shall give written notice to the
Stockholders a reasonable period in advance of such issuance (but in no event later than ten (10) days prior to such issuance), which notice shall set forth the number and type of the securities to be issued, the issuance date, the offerees or
transferees, the price per security, and all of the other material terms and conditions of such issuance, which shall be deemed updated by delivery or filing of documentation with such material terms and conditions for such issuance to the
Stockholders (including a pricing term sheet or free writing prospectus, in the case of a public offering). Each Stockholder may, by irrevocable written notice to the Company (a “Preemptive Rights Notice”) delivered no later than
five (5) days after delivery of such Company notice, commit itself to purchase (or designate an Affiliate thereof to purchase) up to such number of securities as necessary to maintain such Stockholder’s Percentage Ownership of the Company
as of immediately prior to such Preemptive Rights Issuance, in the amount specified in such Preemptive Rights Notice (which amount shall not exceed the number of securities necessary to maintain the Stockholder’s Percentage Ownership of the
Company as of immediately prior to such Preemptive Rights Issuance), on the same terms and conditions as such Preemptive Rights Issuance (it being understood and agreed that the price per security that such Stockholder shall pay shall be the same as
the price per security set forth in the Preemptive Rights Notice). If a Stockholder exercises its preemptive rights hereunder with respect to such Preemptive Rights Issuance, the Company shall issue to such Stockholder (or its designated Affiliates)
the number of securities specified in such Preemptive Rights Notice in accordance with the terms of the issuance, but in no event earlier than fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Preemptive Rights Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, in the
event that the issuance of Common Stock or Equity-based Securities in a Preemptive Rights Issuance involves the purchase of a package of securities that includes Common Stock or Equity-based Securities and other securities in the same Preemptive
Rights Issuance, each Stockholder shall only have the right to acquire its applicable pro rata portion of such other securities, together with its applicable pro rata portion of such Common Stock or Equity-based Securities, in the same manner
described above (as to amount, price and other terms). 
 (c) The election by a Stockholder not to exercise its preemptive rights hereunder
in any one instance shall not affect its right as to any future Preemptive Rights Issuances. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything contained in
this Section 2.1, to the extent a Preemptive Rights Issuance is being made only to investors that are “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501 under Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, then,


  
 -4- 








 
at the option of the Board, in its sole discretion, any Stockholder may be excluded from the offer to purchase any securities pursuant to this Section 2.1 and shall have no rights
under this Section 2.1 with respect to such Preemptive Rights Issuance to the extent it is not an “accredited investor”. 

(e) If the Board determines in good faith that circumstances require the Company to effect a Preemptive Rights Issuance without first
complying with the terms set forth in this Section 2.1, the Company shall be permitted to do so without complying with the terms set forth in this Section 2.1 in connection with such Preemptive Rights Issuance;
provided, that as promptly as practicable following such Preemptive Rights Issuance, the Company permits each Stockholder to purchase its proportionate amount of the applicable securities in the manner contemplated by this
Section 2.1. 
 (f) If the underwriter or placement agent with respect to a Preemptive Rights Issuance advises the Board that,
in its or their opinion, a Stockholder’s purchase of a portion of the securities that are to be issued in such Preemptive Rights Issuance is likely to adversely affect such offering, including, but not limited to, with respect to the price,
timing or distribution of the securities offered or the market for the securities offered, then the Company shall be permitted to effect such Preemptive Rights Issuance without complying with the terms of this Section 2.1 with respect to
such Stockholder and such Stockholder shall not have any preemptive rights with respect thereto. 
 (g) Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the Company shall not be required to issue any securities pursuant to this Section 2.1, and may modify the voting or other rights of such securities, in each case to the extent that the issuance of such
securities to a Stockholder would constitute noncompliance with NYSE rules (or the rules of the principal market on which the Common Stock is then listed) regarding approval by stockholders or would require such approval. 

2.2 Information Rights. 

(a) Following the Closing and for as long as the Majority Approved Holders have the right to designate at least one (1) director for
nomination pursuant to Section 1.1(a), and subject to Section 5.4, (i) the Company shall provide the Approved Holders with unaudited monthly (as soon as reasonably possible after they become available but in no event
before they are sent to the Board) management financial statements, quarterly (as soon as reasonably possible after they become available but in no event before they are sent to the Board) financial statements and audited (by a nationally recognized
accounting firm) annual (as soon as reasonably possible after they become available but in no event before they are sent to the Board) financial statements, in each case, prepared in accordance with GAAP as in effect from time to time, which
statements shall include the consolidated balance sheets of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows and (ii) subject to reasonable restrictions imposed by the
Company to comply with antitrust, export control and other Laws and to avoid disclosure to competitors, suppliers and vendors, the Company shall permit the Approved Holders or any authorized representatives designated by the Approved Holders
reasonable access to visit and inspect any of the properties of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including its and their books of accounting and other records, 

  
 -5- 








 
and to discuss its and their affairs, finances and accounts with its and their officers, all upon reasonable notice and at such reasonable times and as often as the Approved Holders may
reasonably request. Any investigation pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be conducted during normal business hours and in such manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of the Company and its Subsidiaries. 

(b) Following the Closing and for as long as the Approved Holders have the right to designate at least one (1) director for nomination
pursuant to Section 1.1(a), subject to Section 5.4, the Company shall provide to the Approved Holders all written information that is provided to the Board at substantially the same time at which such information is first
delivered or otherwise made available in writing to the Board; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to provide information to the extent it could reasonably be expected to result in the loss of privilege or a violation of
antitrust, export control or other Laws. 
 (c) Nothing herein shall require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to disclose any
information to the extent (i) prohibited by applicable Law, (ii) that the Company reasonably believes such information to be competitively sensitive or proprietary information or (iii) that such disclosure would reasonably be expected
to cause a violation of any agreement to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or would cause a risk of loss of privilege to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (provided that the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to
make appropriate substitute arrangements under circumstances where the restrictions in clauses (i), (ii) and/or (iii) apply). 

2.3 Transfer Restrictions. Without the prior written consent of the Company in its sole discretion, no Stockholder may Transfer any
shares of Convertible Preferred Stock or any shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock to any Persons listed on Exhibit A attached hereto (“Prohibited Transferees”); provided
that no such restriction shall apply to a Transfer in a widely distributed registered public offering. Prohibited Transferees shall also include the Subsidiaries and Affiliates of each person listed on Exhibit A.

5.5 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid
under Applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any Applicable Law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any
other provision or the effectiveness or validity of any provision in any other jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been
contained herein. 
 5.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, all of which shall be
considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that each party need not sign the same counterpart. 

5.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the documents and the instruments referred to in this Agreement), together with the
Confidentiality Agreement, the Investment Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement among the parties or to which they are subject and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral,
between the parties with respect to the subject matter of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. 
 5.8 Governing Law;
Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware (excluding choice-of-law principles of

party to enforce any provision of,

or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought exclusively in the federal courts of the United States of
America located in the State of Delaware. Each of the parties hereto submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any such court in any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of, or in
connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and hereby irrevocably waives the benefit of jurisdiction derived from present or future domicile or otherwise in such action or proceeding. Each party hereto irrevocably
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court
has been brought in an inconvenient forum. 
 5.9 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND
ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 

5.10 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage may occur if any provision of this Agreement is not
performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and
provisions hereof in any court set forth in Section 5.8, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. 

5.11 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer any rights upon any Person other than the parties hereto and
each such party’s respective heirs, successors and permitted assigns, all of whom shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement.
