TRANSFER. 
 2.1 Restrictions on Transfer.

 3

pursuant to Rule 144, except in unusual circumstances. After its Initial Offering, the Company will not require any transferee pursuant to Rule 144 to be bound by the terms of this Agreement if the shares so transferred do not remain Registrable
Securities hereunder following such transfer. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) above, no such
restriction shall apply to a transfer by a Holder that is (A) a partnership transferring to its partners or former partners in accordance with partnership interests, (B) a corporation transferring to a wholly-owned subsidiary or a parent
corporation that owns all of the capital stock of the Holder, (C) a limited liability company transferring to its members or former members in accordance with their interest in the limited liability company, or (D) an individual
transferring to the Holder’s family member or trust for the benefit of an individual Holder; provided that in each case the transferee will agree in writing to be subject to the terms of this Agreement to the same extent as if such
transferee were an original Holder hereunder. 
 (c) Each certificate representing Shares or Registrable Securities shall
be stamped or otherwise imprinted with legends substantially similar to the following (in addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws): 
 THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED,
ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND UNTIL REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT OR UNLESS THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS COUNSEL THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED. 

THE SALE, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF A
CERTAIN INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT BY AND BETWEEN THE STOCKHOLDER AND THE COMPANY. COPIES OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY. 

(d) The Company shall be obligated to reissue promptly unlegended certificates at the request of any Holder thereof if the Company
has completed its Initial Offering or the Holder shall have obtained an opinion of counsel (which counsel may be counsel to the Company) reasonably acceptable to the Company to the effect that the securities proposed to be disposed of may lawfully
be so disposed of without registration, qualification and legend, provided that the second legend listed above shall be removed only at such time as the Holder of such certificate is no longer subject to any restrictions hereunder.

 (e) Any legend endorsed on an instrument pursuant to applicable state securities laws and the stop-transfer
instructions with respect to such securities shall be removed upon receipt by the Company of an order of the appropriate blue sky authority authorizing such removal. 

  
 4 








 2.2 Demand Registration. 

(a) Subject to the conditions of this Section 2.2, if the Company shall receive a written request from the Holders of a
majority of the Registrable Securities (the “Initiating Holders”) that the Company file a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the registration of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities then
outstanding (a “Qualified Public Offering”), then the Company shall, within thirty (30) days of the receipt thereof, give written notice of such request to all Holders, and subject to the limitations of this
Section 2.2, effect, as expeditiously as reasonably possible, the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities that all Holders request to be registered. 

(b) If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an
underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this Section 2.2 or any request pursuant to Section 2.4 and the Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in
Section 2.2(a) or Section 2.4(a), as applicable. In such event, the right of any Holder to include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the
inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form
with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities held by all Initiating Holders (which underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company).
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.2 or Section 2.4, if the underwriter advises the Company that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of securities to be underwritten (including Registrable Securities)
then the Company shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities that would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated to the Holders of such Registrable
Securities on a pro rata basis based on the number of Registrable Securities held by all such Holders (including the Initiating Holders); provided, however, that the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be
included in such underwriting and registration shall not be reduced unless all other securities of the Company are first entirely excluded from the underwriting and registration; and provided, further, that such allocation shall not operate
to reduce the aggregate number of Registrable Securities to be included in such registration if any Holder does not request inclusion of the maximum number of shares of Registrable Securities, assuming conversion, allocated to such Holder pursuant
to the above-described procedure, in which case the remaining portion of such Holder’s allocation shall be reallocated among those requesting Holders whose allocations did not satisfy their requests pro rata on the basis of the total number of
shares of Registrable Securities held by such Holders, and this procedure shall be repeated until all shares of Registrable Securities which may be included in the registration on behalf of the Holders have been so allocated. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no such reduction shall reduce the amount of securities of the selling Holders included in the registration below thirty percent (30%) of the total amount of securities included in such


  
 5 








 
registration, unless such offering is the Initial Offering and such registration does not include shares of any other selling stockholders, in which event any or all of the Registrable Securities
of the Holders may be excluded in accordance with the immediately preceding clause. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from the registration. 

(c) The Company shall not be required to effect a registration pursuant to this Section 2.2: 

(i) prior to the earlier of (A) the third anniversary of the date of this Agreement or (B) the expiration of the
restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 2.11 following the Initial Offering; 
 (ii) after the Company has
effected two (2) registrations pursuant to this Section 2.2, and such registrations have been declared or ordered effective; 
 (iii) during the period starting with the date of filing of, and ending on the date one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective date of the registration statement pertaining to the
Initial Offering (or such longer period as may be determined pursuant to Section 2.11 hereof); provided that the Company makes reasonable good faith efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; 

(iv) if within thirty (30) days of receipt of a written request from Initiating Holders pursuant to Section 2.2(a), the
Company gives notice to the Holders of the Company’s intention to file a registration statement for its Initial Offe1ing within ninety (90) days; 
 (v) if the Company shall furnish to Holders requesting a registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.2 a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith
judgment of the board of directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such registration statement to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer such
filing for a period of not more than one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders; provided that such right to delay a request shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in any twelve
(12) month period; 
 (vi) if the Initiating Holders propose to dispose of shares of Registrable Securities that
may be immediately registered on Form S-3 pursuant to a request made pursuant to Section 2.4 below; or 
 (vii) in
any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance, unless the Company is already subject to
service in such jurisdiction. 
 2.3 Piggyback Registrations. The Company shall notify all Holders of Registrable
Securities in writing at least fifteen (15) days prior to the filing of any registration statement. under the Securities Act for purposes of a public offering of securities of the Company


  
 6 








 
(including, but not limited to, registration statements relating to secondary offerings of securities of the Company, but excluding Special Registration Statements) and will afford each such
Holder an opportunity to include in such registration statement all or part of such Registrable Securities held by such Holder. Each Holder desiring to include in any such registration statement all or any part of the Registrable Securities held by
it shall, within fifteen (15) days after the above-described notice from the Company, so notify the Company in writing. Such notice shall state the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities by such Holder and the number of
shares of such Holder’s Registrable Securities to be included in such registration statement. If a Holder decides not to include all of its Registrable Securities in any registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Holder shall
nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Company with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and
conditions set forth herein. 
 (a) Underwriting. If the registration statement of which the Company gives notice under
this Section 2.3 is for an underwritten offering, the Company shall so advise the Holders of Registrable Securities. In such event, the right of any such Holder to include Registrable Securities in a registration pursuant to this
Section 2.3 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute
their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, if the underwriter determines in good faith that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the number of shares that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated, first, to the Company
for securities being for its own account; second, to the Holders on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by the Holders, assuming conversion; and third, to any stockholder of the Company (other than
a Holder) requesting to include shares of Common Stock in such registration statement on a pro rata basis; provided, however, that such allocation shall not operate to reduce the aggregate number of Registrable Securities to be
included in such registration if any Holder does not request inclusion of the maximum number of shares of Registrable Securities, assuming conversion, allocated to such Holder pursuant to the above-described procedure, in which case the remaining
portion of such Holder’s allocation shall be reallocated among those requesting Holders whose allocations did not satisfy their requests pro rata on the basis of the total number of shares of Registrable Securities held by such Holders, and
this procedure shall be repeated until all shares of Registrable Securities which may be included in the registration on behalf of the Holders have been so allocated; and provided, further, that no such reduction shall reduce the amount of
securities of the selling Holders included in the registration below thirty percent (30%) of the total amount of securities included in such registration, unless such offering is the Initial Offering and such registration does not include
shares of any other selling stockholders, in which event any or all of the Registrable Securities of the Holders may be excluded in accordance with the immediately preceding clause. In no event will shares of any other selling stockholder be
included in such registration that would reduce the number of shares which may be included by Holders without the written consent of Holders of not less than a majority of the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the offering. If any Holder
disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the 

  
 7 








 
Company and the underwriter, delivered at least ten (10) business days prior to the effective date of the registration statement. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such
underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration. For any Holder which is a partnership, limited liability company or corporation, the partners, retired partners, members, retired members and stockholders of such Holder, or the
estates and family members of any such partners, retired partners, members and retired members and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing person shall be deemed to be a single “Holder,” and any pro rata reduction
with respect to such “Holder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such “Holder,” as defined in this sentence. 

(b) Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it
under this Section 2.3 whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. The Registration Expenses of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 2.5 hereof.

 2.4 Form S-3 Registration. In case the Company shall receive from any Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities a
written request or requests that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3 (or any successor to Form S-3) or any similar short-form registration statement and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the
Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders, the Company will: 
 (a) promptly give written notice of
the proposed registration, and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders of Registrable Securities; and 

(b) as soon as practicable, effect such registration and all such qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as
would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holder’s or Holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other
Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect
any such registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 2.4: 
 (i) if Form S-3 is not available for
such offering by the Holders; 
 (ii) if the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company
entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public of less than one million dollars ($1,000,000); 

(iii) if within thirty (30) days of receipt of a written request from any Holder or Holders pursuant to this
Section 2.4, the Company gives notice to such Holder or Holders of the Company’s intention to make a public offering within ninety (90) days, other than pursuant to a Special Registration Statement; 

(iv) if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company
stating that in the good faith judgment

of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such Form S-3 registration to be effected at such time, in which event the
Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3 registration statement for a period of not more than one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of the request of the Holder or Holders under this Section 2.4;
provided, that such right to delay a request shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in any twelve (12) month period; 
 (v) if the Company has already effected two (2) registrations on Form S-3 for the Holders pursuant to this Section 2.4; or 

(vi) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general
consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance. 
 (c) Subject to the
foregoing, the Company shall file a Form S-3 registration statement covering the Registrable Securities and other securities so requested to be registered as soon as practicable after receipt of the requests of the Holders. Registrations effected
pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall not be counted as demands for registration or registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.2. 
 2.5 Expenses of Registration. Except as specifically provided herein, all Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to
Section 2.2, 2.3 or 2.4 herein shall be borne by the Company. All Selling Expenses incurred in connection with any registrations hereunder, shall be borne by the holders of the securities so registered pro rata on the basis
of the number of shares so registered. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay for expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2.2 or 2.4, the request of which has been subsequently withdrawn by the Holders of a
majority of Registrable Securities to be registered, respectively, unless (a) the withdrawal is based upon material adverse information concerning the Company of which the Initiating Holders were not aware at the time of such request or
(b) the Holders of a majority of Registrable Securities agree to deem such registration to have been effected as of the date of such withdrawal for purposes of determining whether the Company shall be obligated pursuant to Section 2.2(c)
or 2.4(b)(v), as applicable, to undertake any subsequent registration, in which event such right shall be forfeited by all Holders. If the Holders are required to pay the Registration Expenses, such expenses shall be borne by the holders of
securities (including Registrable Securities) requesting such registration in proportion to the number of shares for which registration was requested. If the Company is required to pay the Registration Expenses of a withdrawn offering pursuant to
clause (a) above, then such registration shall not be deemed to have been effected for purposes of determining whether the Company shall be obligated pursuant to Section 2.2(c) or 2.4(b)(v), as applicable, to undertake any subsequent
registration. 
 2.6 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required to effect the registration of any Registrable
Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible: 
 (a) prepare and file with the SEC a
registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use all reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities


  
 9 








 
registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for up to thirty (30) days or, if earlier, until the Holder or Holders have completed the distribution related thereto;
provided, however, that at any time, upon written notice to the participating Holders and for a period not to exceed sixty (60) days thereafter (the “Suspension Period”), the Company may delay the filing or
effectiveness of any registration statement or suspend the use or effectiveness of any registration statement (and the Initiating Holders hereby agree not to offer or sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement during the
Suspension Period) if the Company reasonably believes that there is or may be in existence material nonpublic information or events involving the Company, the failure of which to be disclosed in the prospectus included in the registration statement
could result in a Violation (as defined below). In the event that the Company shall exercise its right to delay or suspend the filing or effectiveness of a registration hereunder, the applicable time period during which the registration statement is
to remain effective shall be extended by a period of time equal to the duration of the Suspension Period. The Company may extend the Suspension Period for an additional consecutive sixty (60) days with the consent of the holders of a majority
of the Registrable Securities registered under the applicable registration statement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No more than two (2) such Suspension Periods shall occur in any twelve (12) month period. In no event
shall any Suspension Period, when taken together with all prior Suspension Periods, exceed 120 days in the aggregate. If so directed by the Company, all Holders registering shares under such registration statement shall (i) not offer to sell
any Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement during the period in which the delay or suspension is in effect after receiving notice of such delay or suspension; and (ii) use their best efforts to deliver to the Company (at
the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holders’ possession, of the prospectus relating to such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Company shall not be required to file, cause to become effective or maintain the effectiveness of any registration statement other than a registration statement on Form S-3 that contemplates a distribution of securities on a delayed or
continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. 
 (b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by
such registration statement for the period set forth in subsection (a) above. 
 (c) Furnish to the Holders such number
of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned
by them. 
 (d) Use its reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement
under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders; provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or
to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions. 

  
 10 









 (e) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its
obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter(s) of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement.

 (f) Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus
relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or
omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing. The Company will use reasonable efforts to amend or supplement such prospectus
in order to cause such prospectus not to include any 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 not misleading in the light of the circumstances then
existing. 
 (g) Use its reasonable efforts to furnish, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the
underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, (i) an opinion, dated as of such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given
to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and (ii) a “comfort” letter, dated as of such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as
is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering addressed to the underwriters. 
 2.7 Delay of Registration; Furnishing Information. 
 (a) No Holder
shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Section 2. 

(b) It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to Section 2.2, 2.3 or
2.4 that the selling Holders shall furnish to the Company such information regarding themselves, the Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect the registration of
their Registrable Securities. 
 (c) The Company shall have no obligation with respect to any registration requested
pursuant to Section 2.2 or Section 2.4 if the number of shares or the anticipated aggregate offering price of the Registrable Securities to be included in the registration does not equal or exceed the number of shares or the anticipated
aggregate offering price required to originally trigger the Company’s obligation to initiate such registration as specified in Section 2.2 or Section 2.4, whichever is applicable. 

  
 11 









 2.8 Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a
registration statement under Sections 2.2, 2.3 or 2.4: 
 (a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will
indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the partners, members, officers, and directors of each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the
meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a “Violation”) by the Company: (i) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement or incorporated by reference therein, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, any issuer free writing prospectus
(as defined in Rule 433 of the Securities Act), any issuer information (as defined in Rule 433 of the Securities Act) filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act or any other document incident to such registration,
qualification, or compliance prepared by or on behalf of the Company or issued or referred to by the Company, or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule, or regulation promulgated under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law in connection with the offering covered by such registration statement; and the Company will reimburse each such Holder, partner, member, officer, director, underwriter or controlling
person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this
Section 2.8(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the
Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly
for use in connection with such registration by such Holder, partner, member, officer, director, underwriter or controlling person of such Holder. 
 (b) To the extent permitted by law, each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration qualifications or compliance is
being effected, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, its officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, any underwriter and any other Holder selling securities under
such registration statement or any of such other Holder’s partners, directors or officers or any person who controls such Holder, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which the Company or any such director,
officer, controlling person, underwriter or other such Holder, or partner, director, officer or controlling person of such other Holder may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration
statement or incorporated by reference therein, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required
to be stated 

  
 12 









 
therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act (collectively, a “Holder
Violation”), in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Holder Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder under an instrument duly executed by such Holder and
stated to be specifically for use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer, controlling person, underwriter or other
Holder, or partner, officer, director or controlling person of such other Holder in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if it is judicially determined that there was such a Holder Violation;
provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.8(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the
Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided further, that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 2.8 exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder. 

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 2.8 of notice of the commencement of any action
(including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 2.8, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof
and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to
the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses thereof to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel
retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the
indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 2.8 to the extent, and only to the extent, prejudicial to its
ability to defend such action, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 2.8. 

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.8 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to
an indemnified party with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable law contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the
other in connection with the Violation(s) or Holder Violation(s) that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified
party shall be determined by a court of law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or
by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, that in no event shall any contribution by a Holder hereunder exceed
the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder. 
 (e) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this
Section 2.8 shall survive completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement and, with respect to liability arising from an offering to which this Section 2.8 would apply that is covered by a registration
filed before termination of this Agreement, such termination. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any
settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

 2.9 Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register
Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2 may be assigned by a Holder to a transferee or assignee of Registrable Securities (for so long as such shares remain Registrable Securities) that (a) is a subsidiary, parent, general
partner, limited partner, retired partner, member or retired member of a Holder that is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company, (b) is a Holder’s family member or trust for the benefit of an individual Holder, or
(c) acquires at least two hundred thousand (200,000) shares of Registrable Securities (as adjusted for stock splits, combinations and the like occurring after the date of this Agreement); provided, however,
(i) the transferor shall, within ten (10) days after such transfer, furnish to the Company written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being
assigned and (ii) such transferee shall agree to be subject to all restrictions set forth in this Agreement. 

2.10 Limitation on Subsequent Registration Rights. Other than as provided in Section 5.10, after the date of this Agreement,
the Company shall not enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company that would grant such holder rights to demand the registration of shares of the Company’s capital stock, or to include such
shares in a registration statement that would reduce the number of shares includable by the Holders. 
 2.11
“Market Stand-Off” Agreement. Each Holder hereby agrees that such Holder shall not sell, transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic
effect as a sale, any Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company held by such Holder (other than those included in the registration) during the 180-day period following the effective date of the Initial Offering (or such longer period, not to
exceed 34 days after the expiration of the 180-day period, as the underwriters or the Company shall request in order to facilitate compliance with FINRA Rule 2711 or NYSE Member Rule 472 or any successor or similar rule or regulation); provided that
all officers and directors of the Company and holders of at least one percent (1%) of the Company’s voting securities are bound by and have entered into similar agreements. The obligations described in this Section 2.11 shall not
apply to (i) shares acquired in the open market following the Initial Offering if the sale of such shares would not result in a Section 16 filing, (ii) shares acquired in the Initial Offering unless the lead underwriters of the
offering require they be subject to this provision, or (iii) a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-1 or Form S-8 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future, or a registration relating solely to a
transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future. 

  
 14 









 2.12 Agreement to Furnish Information. Each Holder agrees to execute and deliver such
other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the underwriter that are consistent with the Holder’s obligations under Section 2.11 or that are necessary to give further effect thereto. In addition, if requested by the
Company or the representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company, each Holder shall provide, within ten (10) days of such request, such information as may be required by the Company or such representative
in connection with the completion of any public offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act. The obligations described in Section 2.11 and this Section 2.12 shall not apply
to a Special Registration Statement. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the shares of Common Stock (or other securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of said day period. Each Holder agrees that
any transferee of any shares of Registrable Securities shall be bound by Sections 2.11 and 2.12. The underwriters of the Company’s stock are intended third party beneficiaries of Sections 2.11 and 2.12 and shall have the right, power and
authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto. 
 2.13 Rule 144 Reporting. With a
view to making available to the Holders the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to:

 (a) Make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144 or any
similar or analogous rule promulgated under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date of the first registration filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public; 

(b) File with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and
the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); and 
 (c) So long as a Holder
owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to such Holder forthwith upon request: a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144 of the Securities Act, and of the Exchange Act (at any time
after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company filed with the Commission; and such other reports and documents as a Holder may reasonably request in connection with
availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing it to sell any such securities without registration. 
 2.14
Termination of Registration Rights. The right of any Holder to request registration or inclusion of Registrable Securities in any registration pursuant to Section 2.2, Section 2.3, or Section 2.4 hereof shall terminate upon the
earlier of: (i) the date three (3) years following an Initial Offering; or (ii) such time as such Holder holds less than 1% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock (treating all shares of Preferred Stock on an as converted
basis), the Company has completed its Initial Offering and all Registrable Securities of the Company issuable or issued upon conversion of the Shares held by and issuable to such Holder 

  
 15 









 
(and its affiliates) may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 during any ninety (90) day period. Upon such termination, such shares shall cease to be “Registrable Securities” hereunder for
all purposes. 
 SECTION 3. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY. 
 3.1 Basic Financial Information and Reporting. 
 (a) The Company
will maintain true books and records of account in which full and correct entries will be made of all its business transactions pursuant to a system of accounting established and administered in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles consistently applied (except as noted therein or as disclosed to the recipients thereof), and will set aside on its books all such proper accruals and reserves as shall be required under generally accepted accounting principles
consistently applied. 
 (b) Unless waived by Holders holding a majority of the Registrable Securities, as soon as
practicable after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, and in any event within one hundred twenty (120) days thereafter, the Company will furnish such Investor a balance sheet of the Company, as at the end of such fiscal year, and a
statement of income and a statement of cash flows of the Company, for such year, all prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied (except as noted therein or as disclosed to the recipients thereof) and
setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous fiscal year, all in reasonable detail. Such financial statements shall be accompanied by a report and opinion thereon by independent public accountants selected by the
Company’s Board of Directors. 
 (c) So long as an Investor (with its affiliates) owns not less than two million
(2,000,000) shares of Registrable Securities (as adjusted for stock splits, dividends, combinations and the like occurring after the date of this Agreement) (a “Major Investor”), the Company will furnish each such Major
Investor: (i) at least thirty (30) days prior to the beginning of each fiscal year an annual budget and operating plans for such fiscal year (and as soon as available, any subsequent written revisions thereto); and (ii) as soon as
practicable after the end of each month, and in any event within twenty (20) days thereafter, a balance sheet of the Company as of the end of each such month, and a statement of income and a statement of cash flows of the Company for such month
and for the current fiscal year to date, including a comparison to plan figures for such period, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied (except as noted thereon), with the exception that such
statements need not contain all the notes that may be required under generally accepted accounting principles and year-end audit adjustments may not have been made. 
 (d) Notwithstanding Section 5.5 hereof, this Section 3.1 may be amended, or any provision waived with and only with the written consent of the Company and the Major Investors holding a
majority of the Registrable Securities held by all Major Investors, or as permitted by Section 5.5. 
 3.2 Inspection
Rights. Each Major Investor shall have the right to visit and inspect any of the properties of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, and to discuss the affairs, 

  
 16 









 
finances and accounts of the Company or any of its subsidiaries with its officers, and to review such information as is reasonably requested all at such reasonable times and as often as may be
reasonably requested; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated under this Section 3.2 with respect to a competitor of the Company or with respect to information which the Board of Directors determines in good faith is
confidential or attorney-client privileged and should not, therefore, be disclosed. Notwithstanding Section 5.5 hereof, this Section 3.2 may be amended, or any provision waived with and only with the written consent of the Company and the
Major Investors holding a majority of the Registrable Securities held by all Major Investors, or as permitted by Section 5.5. 
 3.3 Confidentiality of Records. Each Investor agrees to use the same degree of care as such Investor uses to protect its own confidential information to keep confidential any information furnished
to such Investor hereof that the Company identifies as being confidential or proprietary (so long as such information is not in the public domain), except that such Investor may disclose such proprietary or confidential information (i) to any
partner, member, subsidiary or parent of such Investor as long as such partner, member, subsidiary or parent is advised of and agrees or has agreed to be bound by the confidentiality provisions of this Section 3.3 or comparable restrictions;
(ii) at such time as it enters the public domain through no fault of such Investor; (iii) that is communicated to it free of any obligation of confidentiality; (iv) that is developed by Investor or its agents independently of and
without reference to any confidential information communicated by the Company; (v) in response to any order or requirement of any court or other governmental body, provided that such Board Observer provides the Company with prompt notice of
such court order or requirement to the Company to enable the Company to seek a protective order or otherwise to prevent or restrict such disclosure; (vi) in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or rights under this Agreement; or
(vii) to comply with applicable law. 
 3.4 Reservation of Common Stock. The Company will at all times
reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock, all Common Stock issuable from time to time upon such conversion. 

3.5 Board Observer Rights. The Company shall permit one representative of Lightspeed Venture Partners VIII, L.P.
(“Lightspeed”) (the “Board Observer”), the right to attend all meetings of the Board (whether in person, telephonic or otherwise) in a non-voting, observer capacity and
receive all information distributed to the Board (the “Board Observer Rights”); provided, however, that (a) if in the opinion of counsel to the Company, exclusion of the Board Observer, or withholding of
the information to be provided to the Board Observer in connection with the Board Observer Rights, is reasonably necessary to preserve attorney-client privilege with respect to a material matter or (b) if the Board reasonably determines that
exclusion of the Board Observer, or withholding of the information to be provided to the Board Observer in connection with the Board Observer Rights, is necessary in order to protect highly confidential information the disclosure of which to the
Board Observer would be materially injurious to the Company in such circumstances, then the Company shall have the right to exclude such Board Observer from only those portions of meetings of the Board or the committees thereof in which such
information is discussed, or withhold such information from such Board Observer, in each case to the extent deemed necessary by the Board. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.10 hereof, the Board Observer shall keep all confidential
information  

  
 17 









 
regarding the Company that the Board Observer receives in connection with the Board Observer Rights in strict confidence, except information (i) that is communicated to it free of any
obligation of confidentiality, (ii) that enters the public domain through no fault of the Board Observer, (iii) that is developed by the Board Observer or Lightspeed or their respective agents independently of and without reference to any
confidential information communicated by the Company, (iv) in response to any order or requirement of any court or other governmental body, provided that such Board Observer provides the Company with prompt notice of such court order or
requirement to the Company to enable the Company to seek a protective order or otherwise to prevent or restrict such disclosure; (v) in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or rights under this Agreement; or (vi) to comply
with applicable law. Lightspeed is entitled to appoint a Board Observer for so long as it holds at least 2,000,000 shares of Series B Stock, as adjusted for any dividends, split-ups, recapitalizations, reclassifications, combination of shares or the
like occurring after the date of this Agreement. Initially, the Board Observer shall be Barry Eggers. 
 3.6 Stock Vesting.
Unless otherwise approved by the Board of Directors, all stock options and other stock equivalents issued after the date of this Agreement to employees, directors, consultants and other service providers shall be subject to vesting as follows:
(a) twenty-five percent (25%) of such stock shall vest at the end of the first year following the earlier of the date of issuance or such person’s services commencement date with the Company, and (b) seventy-five percent
(75%) of such stock shall vest over the remaining three (3) years. 
 3.7 Proprietary Information and Inventions
Agreement. The Company shall require all employees and consultants to execute and deliver a Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement substantially in a form approved by the Company’s counsel or Board of Directors. 

3.8 Directors’ Liability and Indemnification. The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws shall provide
(a) for elimination of the liability of director to the maximum extent permitted by law and (b) for indemnification of directors for acts on behalf of the Company to the maximum extent permitted by law. In addition, the Company shall enter
into and use its best efforts to at all times maintain indemnification agreements with each of its directors to indemnify such directors to the maximum extent permissible under applicable law. 

3.9 Qualified Small Business. For so long as any of the Shares are held by an Investor (or a transferee in whose hands such Shares
are eligible to qualify as “Qualified Small Business Stock” as defined in Section 1202(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)), the Company will use its reasonable
efforts to comply with the reporting and record keeping requirements of Section 1202 of the Code, any regulations promulgated thereunder and any similar state laws and regulations. 

3.10 Use of Information. The Company acknowledges that the Investors and their affiliates, members,
equity holders, director representatives, partners, employees, agents and other related persons are engaged in the business of investing in private and public companies in a wide range of industries, including the industry segment in which the
Company operates (the “Company Industry Segment”). Accordingly, the Company and the Investors acknowledge and agree that a Covered Person shall: 

(a) have no duty to the Company to refrain from participating as a director, board observer, investor or otherwise with respect to
any company or other person or entity that is engaged in the Company Industry Segment or is otherwise competitive with the Company, and 

  
 18 









 (b) in connection with making investment decisions, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, have no obligation of confidentiality or other duty to the Company to refrain from using any information, including, but not limited to, market trend and market data, which comes into such Covered Person’s
possession, whether as a director, investor or otherwise (the “Information Waiver”), provided that the Information Waiver shall not apply, and therefore such Covered Person shall be subject to such obligations and duties as
would otherwise apply to such Covered Person under applicable law, if the information at issue (i) constitutes material non­public information concerning the Company, or (ii) is covered by a contractual obligation of confidentiality to
which the Company is subject. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.10 to the contrary,

 SECTION 4. RIGHTS OF FIRST REFUSAL. 

4.1 Subsequent Offerings. Subject to applicable securities laws, each Major Investor shall have a right of first refusal to
purchase up to its pro rata share of all Equity Securities, as defined below, that the Company may, from time to time, propose to sell and issue after the date of this Agreement, other than the Equity Securities excluded by
Section 4.6 hereof. Each Major Investor’s pro rata share is equal to the ratio of (a) the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock (including all shares of Common Stock issuable or issued upon
conversion of the Shares or upon the exercise of outstanding warrants or options) of which such Major Investor is deemed to be a holder immediately prior to the issuance of such Equity Securities to (b) the total number of shares of the
Company’s outstanding Common Stock (including all shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Shares or upon the exercise of any outstanding warrants or options) immediately prior to the issuance of the Equity Securities.
The term “Equity Securities” shall mean (i) any Common Stock, Preferred Stock or other security of the Company, (ii) any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, with or without
consideration, any Common Stock, Preferred Stock or other security (including any option to purchase such a convertible security), (iii) any security carrying any warrant or right to subscribe to or purchase any Common Stock, Preferred Stock or
other security or (iv) any such warrant or right. 
 4.2 Exercise of Rights. If the Company proposes to issue
any Equity Securities, it shall give each Major Investor written notice of its intention, describing the Equity Securities, the price and the terms and conditions upon which the Company proposes to issue the same. Each Major Investor shall have
fifteen (15) days from the giving of such notice to agree to purchase its pro rata share of the Equity Securities for the price and upon the terms and conditions specified in the notice by giving written notice to the
Company and stating therein the quantity of Equity Securities to be purchased. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to offer or sell such Equity Securities to any Major Investor who would cause the Company to be in
violation of applicable federal securities laws by virtue of such offer or sale. 
 4.3 Overallotment and Issuance of
Equity Securities to Other Persons. In the event that the Major Investors fail to exercise fully their pro rata share of the Equity Securities, then the Company shall promptly notify in writing the Major Investors who do so
elect to exercise fully their pro rata share of the Equity Securities and shall offer such Major Investors the right to acquire such unsubscribed shares on a pro rata basis. The Major Investors shall have
five (5) days after receipt of such notice to notify the Company of its election to purchase all or a portion thereof of the unsubscribed shares. The Company shall have ninety (90) days thereafter to sell the Equity Securities in respect
of which the Major Investors’ rights were not exercised, at a price not lower, and upon general terms and conditions not materially more favorable to the purchasers thereof, than specified in the Company’s notice to the Major Investors
pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof. If the Company has not sold such Equity Securities within ninety (90) days of the notice provided pursuant to Section 4.2, the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any Equity Securities, without
first offering such securities to the Major Investors in the manner provided above. 

  
 20 









 4.4 Termination and Waiver of Rights of First Refusal. The rights of first refusal
established by this Section 4 shall not apply to, and shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the effective date of the registration statement pertaining to the Company’s Initial Offering or (ii) an Acquisition. Notwithstanding
Section 5.5 hereof, the rights of first refusal established by this Section 4 may be amended, or any provision waived with and only with the written consent of the Company and the Major Investors holding a majority of the Registrable
Securities held by all Major Investors, or as permitted by Section 5.5. 
 4.5 Assignment of Rights of First
Refusal. The rights of first refusal of each Major Investor under this Section 4 may be assigned to the same parties, subject to the same restrictions as any transfer of registration rights pursuant to Section 2.9. 

4.6 Excluded Securities. The rights of first refusal established by this Section 4 shall have no application to any of the
following Equity Securities: 
 (a) shares of Common Stock and/or options, warrants or other Common Stock purchase
rights and the Common Stock issued pursuant to such options, warrants or other rights (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and the like after the date hereof) issued or to be issued after the date hereof to
employees, officers or directors of, or consultants or advisors to, the Company or any subsidiary, pursuant to stock purchase or stock option plans or other arrangements that are approved by the Board of Directors (including at least one director
elected by the holders of Series A Preferred Stock); 
 (b) stock issued or issuable pursuant to any rights or
agreements, options, warrants or convertible securities outstanding as of the date of this Agreement; and stock issued pursuant to any such rights or agreements granted after the date of this Agreement, so long as the rights of first refusal
established by this Section 4 were complied with, waived, or were inapplicable pursuant to any provision of this Section 4.6 with respect to the initial sale or grant by the Company of such rights or agreements; 

(c) any Equity Securities issued for consideration other than cash pursuant to a merger, consolidation, acquisition or similar
business combination approved by the Board of Directors (including at least one director elected by the holders of Series A Preferred Stock); 
 (d) any Equity Securities issued in connection with any stock split, stock dividend or recapitalization by the Company; 
 (e) any Equity Securities issued pursuant to any equipment loan or leasing arrangement, real property leasing arrangement, or debt financing from a bank or similar financial institution approved by
the Board of Directors (including at least one director elected by the holders of Series A Preferred Stock); 
 (f) any
Equity Securities that are issued by the Company pursuant to a bona fide public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act; 
 (g) any Equity Securities issued in connection with strategic transactions involving the Company and other entities, including, without limitation (i) joint ventures, manufacturing, marketing
or distribution arrangements or (ii) technology transfer or 

  
 21 









 
development arrangements; provided that the issuance of shares therein is not primarily for equity financing purposes and has been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors
(including at least one director elected by the holders of Series A Preferred Stock); and 
 (h) any Equity Securities
issued by the Company pursuant to the terms of Section 1.2 of the Purchase Agreement. 
 SECTION 5. MISCELLANEOUS. 

5.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of California in all respects as
such laws are applied to agreements among California residents entered into and to be performed entirely within California, without reference to conflicts of laws or principles thereof. The parties agree that any action brought by either party under
or in relation to this Agreement, including without limitation to interpret or enforce any provision of this Agreement, shall be brought in, and each party agrees to and does hereby submit to the jurisdiction and venue of, any state or federal court
located in the County of Santa Clara, California. 
 5.2 Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors, and administrators and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each
person who shall be a holder of Registrable Securities from time to time; provided, however, that prior to the receipt by the Company of adequate written notice of the transfer of any Registrable Securities specifying the full
name and address of the transferee, the Company may deem and treat the person listed as the holder of such shares in its records as the absolute owner and holder of such shares for all purposes, including the payment of dividends or any redemption
price. 
 5.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Exhibits and Schedules hereto constitute the full and entire
understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects hereof and supersedes in its entirety the Prior Agreement, which shall have no further force or effect and no party shall be liable or bound to any other in any manner by
any oral or written representations, warranties, covenants and agreements except as specifically set forth herein and therein. Each party expressly represents and warrants that it is not relying on any oral or written representations, warranties,
covenants or agreements outside of this Agreement. 
 5.4 Severability. In the event one or more of the provisions
of this Agreement should, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be construed
as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. In such event, the parties shall negotiate, in good faith, a legal, valid and enforceable substitute provision which most nearly effects, to the extent possible,
the same economic, business or other purposes of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision. A court of competent jurisdiction may replace such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision
that will achieve, to the extent possible, the same economic, business and other purposes of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision. 

  
 22 









 5.5 Amendment and Waiver. 

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided, this Agreement may be amended or modified, and the obligations of the Company and the
rights of the Holders under this Agreement may be waived, only upon the written consent of the Company and the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding Registrable Securities. 

(b) For the purposes of determining the number of Holders or Investors entitled to vote or exercise any rights hereunder, the
Company shall be entitled to rely solely on the list of record holders of its stock as maintained by or on behalf of the Company. 
 5.6 Delays or Omissions. It is agreed that no delay or omission to exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to any party, upon any breach, default or noncompliance by another party under this
Agreement shall impair any such right, power, or remedy, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach, default or noncompliance, or any acquiescence therein, or of any similar breach, default or noncompliance thereafter occurring. It
is further agreed that any waiver, permit, consent, or approval of any kind or character on any party’s part of any breach, default or noncompliance under the Agreement or any waiver on such party’s part of any provisions or conditions of
this Agreement must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. All remedies, either under this Agreement, by law, or otherwise afforded to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative.

 5.7 Notices. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively
given: (a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (b) when sent by confirmed electronic mail or facsimile if sent during normal business hours of the recipient; if not, then on the next business day, (c) five
(5) days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid or (d) one (1) day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written
verification of receipt. All communications shall be sent to the party to be notified at the address as set forth on the signature pages hereof or Exhibit A hereto or at such other address or electronic mail address as such party may designate by
ten (10) days advance written notice to the other parties hereto, provided, however, that for notices to Artis Capital Management, a copy shall be sent to Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, P.C., Attention: Todd Carpenter, 650 Page Mill
Road, Palo Alto, CA 94304. 
 5.8 Attorneys’ Fees. In the event that any suit or action is instituted under
or in relation to this Agreement, including without limitation to enforce any provision in this Agreement, the prevailing party in such dispute shall be entitled to recover from the losing party all fees, costs and expenses of enforcing any right of
such prevailing party under or with respect to this Agreement, including without limitation, such reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and accountants, which shall include, without limitation, all fees, costs and expenses of appeals.

 5.9 Titles and Subtitles. The titles of the sections and subsections of this Agreement are for convenience of
reference only and are not to be considered in construing this Agreement. 
 5.10 Additional Investors.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Company shall issue additional shares of its Series E Preferred Stock pursuant to  

  
 23 









 
the Purchase Agreement, any purchaser of such shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall become a party to this Agreement by executing and delivering an additional counterpart signature
page to this Agreement and shall be deemed an “Investor,” a “Holder” and a party hereunder without any additional consent of any other Holder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
if the Company shall issue Equity Securities in accordance with Section 4.6 (c) and (e) of this Agreement, any purchaser of such Equity Securities may become a party to this Agreement by executing and delivering an additional
counterpart signature page to this Agreement and shall be deemed an “Investor,” a “Holder” and a party hereunder without any additional consent of any other Holder. 

5.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of
which together shall constitute one instrument. 
 5.12 Aggregation of Stock. All shares of Registrable Securities
held or acquired by affiliated entities or persons or persons or entities under common management or control shall be aggregated together for the purpose of determining the availability of any rights under this Agreement. 

5.13 Pronouns. All pronouns contained herein, and any variations thereof, shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine or
neutral, singular or plural, as to the identity of the parties hereto may require.
