pending against, or, to the actual knowledge of the Stockholder, threatened in writing against the Stockholder or any of the Stockholder’s properties or assets (including any Shares beneficially owned by the Stockholder) before or by any
Governmental Body that would reasonably be expected to prevent or otherwise materially impair the ability of the Stockholder to perform the obligations of the Stockholder under this Agreement.

 5 













 
right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or

any party’s rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned or delegated by such party without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any attempted assignment or delegation of this Agreement or any of such rights or obligations by

injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Any and all remedies herein expressly conferred
upon Parent and Purchaser will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon Parent or Purchaser, and the exercise by Parent or Purchaser of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise
of any other remedy. 
 6.7    Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. 

(a)    This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without
giving effect to any laws, rules or provisions that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. In any action between any of the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby, each of the parties irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur
and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties
shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in
equity. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not 

  
 6 













 
exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available. The Stockholder hereby agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail in accordance with
Section 6.1 shall be effective service of process for any proceeding arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. 

(b)    THE STOCKHOLDER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO
INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS
AGREEMENT. THE STOCKHOLDER CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF PARENT OR PURCHASER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT PARENT OR PURCHASER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE
THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (II) THE STOCKHOLDER UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATION OF THIS WAIVER, (III) THE STOCKHOLDER MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (IV) THE STOCKHOLDER HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY,
AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

descriptive headings herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. 

6.9    Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party
hereto, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. 

6.10    Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in
any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If a
final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit such term or
provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this
Agreement shall be valid and enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and
enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term or provision. 

6.11    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an
original, but all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and the 

  
 7 













 
same agreement. This Agreement or any counterpart may be executed and delivered by facsimile copies or delivered by electronic communications by portable document format (.pdf), each of which
shall be deemed an original.

the drafting party shall not be applied in the construction or interpretation of this Agreement. 
 (c)    As used in
this Agreement, the words “include” and “including,” and variations thereof, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” 

(d)    Except as otherwise indicated, all references in this Agreement to “Sections” and
“Schedules” are intended to refer to Sections of this Agreement and Schedules to this Agreement. 

(e)    The bold-faced headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, shall not be deemed to
be a part of this Agreement and shall not be referred to in connection with the construction or interpretation of this Agreement. 

6.13    Further Assurances. The Stockholder will execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all
further documents and instruments and use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Legal Requirements, to perform its
obligations under this Agreement. 
 6.14    No Agreement Until Executed. This Agreement shall not be effective
unless and until (a) the Merger Agreement is executed by all parties thereto and (b) this Agreement is executed by all parties hereto. 

6.15    Capacity as Stockholder. The Stockholder signs this Agreement solely in the Stockholder’s capacity as
a stockholder and warrantholder of the Company, and not in the Stockholder’s capacity as a director, officer or employee of the Company. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing herein shall in any way restrict a director or
officer of the Company (including any director or officer who is an Affiliate of the Stockholder) in the taking of any actions (or failure to act) in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Company, or in the exercise of his or her
fiduciary duties as a director or officer of the Company, or prevent or be construed to create any obligation on the part of any director or officer of the Company from taking any action in his or her capacity as such director or officer, and no
action taken in any such capacity as an officer or director of the Company shall be deemed to constitute a breach of this Agreement.
