4.2 Registration
Rights.

(a) Registration.

(1) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon the written request of Investor, which may not be
delivered prior to September 13, 2009, requesting that the Company effect the registration under the Securities Act of at least $15 million of Investors Registrable Securities and specifying the number of Registrable Securities proposed
to be sold and intended method of disposition thereof, the Company thereupon will, as expeditiously as reasonably practicable, use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act pursuant to this Section 4.2 of
the Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by Investor (a Demand Registration); provided that in no event shall the Company be required to effect more than three Demand Registrations (each of which may
involve an underwritten offering) pursuant to this Section 4.2(a)(1). The Company may include in any such registration other securities for sale for its own account or for the account of any other person. If the Board, in its good faith
judgment, determines that (A) any registration of Registrable Securities should not be made or continued because it would materially interfere with any material financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or merger or similar material
transaction involving the Company, in each case, which is then under consideration by the Company or (B) it would require the disclosure of material non-public information concerning the Company which at the time is not, in the good faith
judgment of the Board (excluding the Investor Directors), in the best interests of the Company to disclose and is not, in the opinion of the Companys counsel, otherwise required to be disclosed (a Valid Business Reason), the
Company may postpone filing a registration statement relating to a Demand Registration (but not the preparation thereof) until such Valid Business Reason no

15



---

LOGO



longer exists, but in no event for more than 60 days during any 12-month period. The Company shall give written notice of its determination to postpone a registration statement and of the fact
that the Valid Business Reason for such postponement no longer exists, in each case, promptly after the occurrence thereof. If the Company gives the Holders notice of its determination to postpone a registration statement, the Holders shall have the
right, within 10 business days of receipt thereof, to withdraw their request for Demand Registration, in which case such request shall not be counted for purposes of this Section 4.2(a)(1). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
the Company may not postpone a filing under this Section 4.2 more than once in any 12-month period.

(2) Any
registration pursuant to this Section 4.2(a) may be effected by means of a shelf registration under the Securities Act (a Shelf Registration Statement) in accordance with the methods and distribution set forth in the Shelf Registration
Statement and Rule 415. If Investor or any other holder of Registrable Securities to whom the registration rights conferred by this Agreement have been transferred in compliance with this Agreement intends to distribute any Registrable Securities by
means of an underwritten offering it shall promptly so advise the Company and the Company shall take all reasonable steps to facilitate such distribution, including the actions required pursuant to Section 4.2(c). The underwriter(s) in any such
distribution shall be selected by the Company; provided, however, that such underwriter(s) shall be approved by holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be distributed, such approval not be unreasonably withheld.

(3) If a Demand Registration relates to an underwritten offering, and the managing underwriters advise the Company that in
their reasonable opinion the dollar amount or number of shares of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration and the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written
contractual piggy-back registration rights held by other stockholders of the Company who desire to sell exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares which can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of such offering
(including an adverse effect on the per share offering price) (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares, as applicable, the Maximum Number of Shares), the Company will include in such registration or prospectus only such
number of securities that in the reasonable opinion of such managing underwriters can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), which securities will be so
included in the following order of priority: (i) first, the Registrable Securities of Investor and all other Holders who have requested registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 4.2(a)(1), pro rata on the basis of the aggregate
number of such securities or shares requested to be included by each such person,

16

LOGO



(ii) second, the securities the Company proposes to sell and (iii) third, any other securities of the Company that have been requested to be so included, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(4) Whenever the Company proposes to register any of its securities, other than a Demand Registration pursuant
to Section 4.2(a)(1) or a Special Registration, and the registration form to be filed may be used for the registration or qualification for distribution of Registrable Securities, the Company will give prompt written notice to Investor and all other
Holders of its intention to effect such a registration (but in no event less than 15 days prior to the anticipated filing date) and will include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written
requests for inclusion therein within 10 days after the date of the Company’s notice (a Piggyback Registration). Any such person that has made such a written request may withdraw its Registrable Securities from such Piggyback
Registration by giving written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter, if any, on or before the second business day prior to the planned effective date of such Piggyback Registration. The Company may terminate or withdraw any
registration under this Section 4.2(a)(4) prior to the effectiveness of such registration, whether or not Investor or any other Holders have elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration.

(5) If the registration referred to in Section 4.2(a)(4) is proposed to be underwritten, the Company will so advise
Investor and all other Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 4.2(a)(4). In such event, the right of Investor and all other Holders to registration pursuant to this Section 4.2(a) will be conditioned upon such
persons’ participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such person’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting, and each such person will (together with the Company and the other persons distributing their securities through
such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company. If any participating person disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such person may
elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company, the managing underwriter and Investor.

(6) If a
Piggyback Registration relates to an underwritten primary offering on behalf of the Company, and the managing underwriter(s) advise the Company that in their reasonable opinion the dollar amount or number of securities requested to be included in
such registration, taken together with the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested under this Section 4.2(a)(6) and the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the written
contractual piggy-back registration right of other stockholders of the Company, exceeds the Maximum Number of Shares,

17

LOGO



the Company will include in such registration or prospectus only such number of securities that in the reasonable opinion of such managing underwriters can be sold without adversely affecting the
marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), which securities will be so included in the following order of priority: (i) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell and (ii) second, Registrable
Securities of Investor, all other Holders who have requested registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 4.2(a)(4), and securities of any other stockholder exercising contractual piggyback registration rights, pro rata on the basis of
the aggregate number of such securities or shares requested to be included by each such person, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(7) If a Piggyback Registration relates to an underwritten primary offering on behalf of any stockholders of the Company
(other than a Holder) who has exercised demand registration rights (the Demanding Other Holders), and the managing underwriter(s) advise the Company that in their reasonable opinion the dollar amount or number of securities requested to
be included in such registration, taken together with the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested under this Section 4.2(a)(7), and the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant
to the written contractual piggy-back registration right of other stockholders of the Company, exceeds the Maximum Number of Shares, the Company will include in such registration or prospectus only such number of securities that in the reasonable
opinion of such managing underwriters can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), which securities will be so included in the following order of priority:
(i) first, the securities proposed to be sold by the Demanding Other Holders, if any, (ii) second, Registrable Securities of Investor, all other Holders who have requested registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 4.2(a)(4), and
securities of any other stockholder exercising contractual piggyback registration rights, pro rata on the basis of the aggregate number of such securities or shares requested to be included by each such person and (iii) third, the securities the
Company proposes to sell, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Expenses of Registration. All
Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance hereunder 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 aggregate offering or sale price of the securities so registered. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay for expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section
4.2(a)(1), the request of which as been subsequently withdrawn by Investor or requesting Holder(s) unless (1) the withdrawal is based upon material adverse information concerning the Company that the Company had not publicly revealed at least 48

hours prior to the request or that the Company had not otherwise notified Investor or Holders of at the time of such request, (2) unless the withdrawal is pursuant to receipt of the
Company’s notice of its determination to postpone a registration statement for a Valid Business Reason pursuant to Section 4.2(a)(1) or (3) Investor or a majority of the Holders agree to forfeit their right to one requested registration
pursuant to Section 4.2(a)(1) in which event such right shall be forfeited by all Holders.

(c) Obligations of
the Company. Whenever required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities or facilitate the distribution of Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably practicable:

(1) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on any form for which the Company then qualifies or that

expenses (including without limitation reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of attorneys and other professionals incurred in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such losses, claims, damages actions,
liabilities, costs and expenses) results from an untrue statement or omission made in such registration statement, including any such preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any such amendments or supplements thereto, in
reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder Indemnitee expressly for use in connection with such registration statement, including any such preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained
therein or any such amendments or supplements thereto. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Holder Indemnitee and shall survive the transfer of Registrable Securities by any
seller.

(2) Each Holder agrees to indemnify the Company, each person, if any, that controls the Company within
the meaning of the Securities Act, and their respective officers, directors, general or limited partners, members, shareholders, employees, agents, representatives and Affiliates, and each person who participates as an underwriter in an underwritten
offering of Registrable Securities and each person that controls such underwriter (each, a Company Indemnitee), against any and all losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs and expenses

(including without limitation reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of attorneys and other professionals incurred in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or
paying any such losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs and expenses), joint or several, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any registration statement, including
any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto or any documents incorporated therein by reference or contained in any free writing prospectus (as such term is defined in Rule 405) prepared
by the Company or authorized by it in writing for use by such Holder (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or any omission to state therein 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, to the extent that the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such Company Indemnitee expressly for use
in connection with such registration statement, including any such preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any such amendments or supplements thereto. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any
investigation made by or on behalf of any Company Indemnitee and shall survive the transfer of Registrable Securities by any seller.

(3) Promptly after receipt by any person of any notice of any loss, claim, damage, action, liability, costs of expenses in
respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 4.2(g)(1) or Section 4.2(g)(2), such person (the Indemnified Party) shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any other person for indemnification hereunder,
notify such other person (the Indemnifying Party) in writing of the loss, claim, damage, action, liability, costs of expenses; provided, however, that the failure by the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not
relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which the Indemnifying Party may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder, except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnified Party is
seeking indemnification with respect to any claim or action brought against the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in such claim or action, and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with all other
Indemnifying Parties, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume control of the defense of such claim or
action, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided,
however, that in any action in which both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party are named as defendants, the Indemnified

Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (but no more than one such separate counsel) to represent the Indemnified Party and its controlling persons who may be subject to liability
arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party, with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by such Indemnifying Party if, based upon the written opinion of
counsel of such Indemnified Party, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the
Indemnified Party, consent to entry of judgment or effect any settlement of any claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such
Indemnified Party, unless such judgment or settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding.

(4) If for any reason the indemnification provided for in Section 4.2(g)(1) or Section 4.2(g)(2) is unavailable to the
Indemnified Party with respect to any losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs or expenses contemplated by Section 4.2(g)(1) and Section 4.2(g)(2) or is insufficient to hold the Indemnified Party harmless as contemplated by Section
4.2(g)(1) or Section 4.2(g)(2), as the case may be, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as result of such losses, claims, damages, action, liabilities, costs or expenses in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnified Party, on the one hand, and of the
Indemnifying Party, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other factors, whether the untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Holder
Indemnitee and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; the Company and each Holder agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant
to this Section 4.2(g)(4) 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 this Section 4.2(g)(4). 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. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Article IV to the contrary, each
Holder’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to the amount of any net proceeds actually received by such Holder.

Registration) covering any of its equity securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the period not to exceed ten days prior and 90 days following the effective date of such offering, if

Securities to whom the registration rights conferred by this Agreement have been transferred in compliance with Section 4.2(h) hereof.

(2) Holders’ Counsel means one counsel for the selling Holders chosen by Holders holding a majority
interest in the Registrable Securities being registered.

(3) register, registered, and
registration shall refer to a registration effected by preparing and (a) filing a registration statement in compliance with the Securities Act and applicable rules and regulations thereunder, and the declaration or ordering of
effectiveness of such registration statement or (b) filing a prospectus and/or prospectus supplement in respect of an appropriate effective registration statement on Form S-3.

(4)
Registrable Securities means the Securities (and any shares of capital stock or other equity interests issued or issuable to any Holder with respect to such Securities by way of stock dividends or stock splits or in connection with a
combination of shares, recapitalization, merger, reorganization, reclassification or similar transaction), provided that, once issued, such Securities will not be Registrable Securities when (i) they are sold pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act, (ii) they are sold pursuant to Rule 144, (iii) they are sold in a private transaction in which the transferor’s rights under this Agreement are not assigned or, (iii) they shall have ceased to be
outstanding.

(5) Registration Expenses mean all expenses incurred by the Company in effecting any
registration pursuant to this Agreement (whether or not any registration or prospectus becomes effective or final) or otherwise complying with its obligations under this Section 4.2, including, without limitation, all registration, filing and
listing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses, expenses incurred in connection with any road show, rating agency fees, the reasonable fees and disbursements of a single law
firm acting as Holders’ Counsel, the reasonable fees and disbursements of the Company’s counsel, expenses of the Company’s independent accountants in connection with any regular or special reviews or audits or comfort
letters incident to or required by any such registration, and any reasonable fees and disbursements of underwriters customarily paid by the issuers, including liability insurance if the Company so desires, but shall not include Selling Expenses.

(6) Rule 144, Rule 405 and Rule 415 mean, in each case, such rule
promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor provision), as the same shall be amended from time to time.

(8) Selling Expenses mean all underwriting discounts, selling commissions and stock transfer taxes applicable
to the sale of Registrable Securities and fees and disbursements of counsel for any Holder (other than the fees and disbursements of Holders’ Counsel included in Registration Expenses).

(k) Without limiting any of the remedies available to any Holder at law or in equity, the parties agree that the failure
of the Company to effect any registration shall not result in any cash settlement of any Warrant.

4.3
Allocation. A portion of the aggregate amount funded by Investor to the Company (the Issue Price) shall be allocated to the Warrant and deemed to be the purchase price paid by Investor in respect of the Warrant. As promptly as
practicable but

28

in no event more than 30 days after the Closing Date, the parties shall agree in writing the allocation of the Issue Price to the Loans and to the Warrant. Neither the Company nor Investor shall

ARTICLE V

MISCELLANEOUS

5.1 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; except that the Company shall bear and, upon Investor’s request, reimburse Investor for all of the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of Investor and its Affiliates incurred in
connection with their review of the Company and its Affiliates, the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement and the funding and other actions undertaken to consummate the transactions contemplated pursuant to this Agreement (including the
reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys, accountants, consultants and other advisors and HSR Act filing fees incurred by or on behalf of Investor or its Affiliates in connection with the transactions contemplated pursuant to this Agreement).

5.2 Amendment; Waiver. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be effective with

Registrable Securities (or Warrants exercisable therefor)). 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, as the case may be, 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.

5.3 Counterparts and Facsimile. 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
electronic means and such electronic signature pages will be deemed as sufficient as if physical signature pages had been delivered.

5.4 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State

brought in any federal or state court of competent jurisdiction located in the Borough of Manhattan in the State of New York, and each party hereto irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction and
venue in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and in the courts hearing appeals therefrom unless no federal subject matter jurisdiction exists, in which event, each party hereto irrevocably consents to jurisdiction
and venue in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, and in the courts hearing appeals therefrom. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise,
in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve process in accordance with this Agreement, that it
or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of
judgment or otherwise), and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that the suit, action or proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper, or that this
Agreement, or the subject matter hereof or thereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts and further irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the benefit of any defense that would hinder, fetter or delay the levy,
execution or collection of any amount to which the party is entitled pursuant to the final judgment of any court having jurisdiction. Each party expressly acknowledges that the foregoing waiver is intended to be irrevocable under the laws of the
State of New York and of the United States of America.

the Company (with a copy thereof to be furnished to the Company) to be bound by the terms of this Agreement (any such transferee shall be included in the term Investor), and (ii) as provided in Section 4.2; provided, further, that no
such assignment shall relieve Investor of its obligations set forth in Section 3.2(b).

5.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person (including the officers and
directors of the parties hereto) or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof, or the application of such provision to persons or circumstances other than
those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, will remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is
not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon a suitable and equitable substitute provision to effect the original intent of the parties.

5.11 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing contained in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to
confer upon any person other than the parties hereto, any benefit right or remedies, except that the provisions of Section 4.2 shall inure to the benefit of the persons to whom the registration rights conferred by this Agreement have been
transferred in compliance with Section 4.2(h) hereof.

5.12 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence in the

each party shall coordinate with the party whose consent is required with respect to any such news release or public disclosure.

5.14 Specific Performance. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that each party would not have an adequate remedy at
law for money damages, and irreparable damage would occur, 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 any party shall
be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement by the other party and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement against the other party, this being in addition to any other remedy to which
either such party is entitled at law or in equity, and each party waives (a) the defense in any action for an injunction or other equitable relief that a remedy at law would be adequate and (b) agrees that any such action for injunctive relief or
specific performance may be brought in (and hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of) any federal or state court in the State of New York.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, American Apparel, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its successors and
assigns, the Issuer), hereby certifies that Lion Capital (Guernsey) II Limited or its registered assigns is entitled to subscribe for and purchase, during the Term (as hereinafter defined), in whole or in part, up to sixteen million
(16,000,000) shares (subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided) of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Common Stock of the Issuer, at an exercise price per share equal to the Warrant Price then in effect, subject,
however, to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. Capitalized terms used in this Warrant and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings specified in Section 11 hereof.

1. Term. The term of this Warrant shall commence on the Original Issue Date and shall expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City
time, on March 13, 2016 (such period being the Term).

2. Method of Exercise; Payment;
Issuance of New Warrant; Transfer and Exchange.

(a) Time of Exercise. The purchase rights represented by this
Warrant may be exercised in whole at any time or in part during the Term.

(b) Method of Exercise. The Holder
hereof may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, by the surrender of this Warrant (with the exercise form attached hereto duly executed) at the principal office of the Issuer, and by the payment to the Issuer of an amount of consideration
therefor equal to the Warrant Price in effect on the date of such exercise multiplied by the number of shares of Warrant Stock with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised, payable at such Holders election (i) by certified
or official bank check or by wire transfer to an

account
designated by the Issuer, (ii) by cashless exercise in accordance with the provisions of subsection (c) of this Section 2, or (iii) by a combination of the foregoing methods of payment selected by the Holder of this
Warrant.

(c) Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if the Per Share Market
Value of one share of Common Stock on the date of exercise is greater than the Warrant Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant by payment of cash, the Holder may exercise all or a portion of this
Warrant by a cashless exercise and shall receive the number of shares of Common Stock equal to an amount (as determined below) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Issuer together with the properly endorsed exercise form (in
the form attached hereto) in which event the Issuer shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula:

X = Y  (A)(Y) B

Where

X =

the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant by cashless
exercise.

Y =

the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of all of the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant
is being exercised by cashless exercise, the portion of the Warrant being so exercised.

A =

the Warrant Price.

B =

the Per Share Market Value on (i) the Trading Day immediately prior to the date of exercise in the event that such
exercise occurs prior to the close of trading on such date of exercise or (ii) on the date of exercise in the event that such exercise occurs after the close of trading on such date of exercise.

(d) Issuance of Stock Certificates. In the event of any exercise of this Warrant in accordance with and subject to the
terms and conditions hereof, certificates for the shares of Warrant Stock so purchased shall be dated the date of such exercise and delivered to the Holder hereof within a reasonable time, not exceeding three (3) Trading Days after such
exercise (the “Delivery Date) or, at the request of the Holder (provided that the Warrant Stock is then freely tradeable under Rule 144 under the Securities Act), issued and delivered to the Depository Trust Company (“DTC)
account of the Holder or its designee on the Holder’s behalf via the Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission System (“DWAC) within a reasonable time, not exceeding three (3) Trading Days after such exercise, and the Holder hereof
shall be deemed for all purposes to be the holder of the shares of Warrant Stock so purchased as of the date of such exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Issuer or its transfer agent shall only be obligated to issue and
deliver the shares to the DTC on a holders behalf via DWAC if the Issuer and its transfer agent are participating in DTC through the DWAC system. The Holder shall deliver this original Warrant, or an indemnification undertaking with respect to
such Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or destruction, at such time that this Warrant is fully exercised. With respect to partial exercises of this Warrant, the Issuer shall keep written records of the number of shares of Warrant Stock
exercised as of each date of exercise.

(e)
Transferability of Warrant. Subject to Section 2(g) hereof, this Warrant (together with all rights and obligations hereunder) may be transferred by a Holder, in whole or in part, without the consent of the Issuer. If transferred pursuant to
this paragraph, this Warrant may be transferred on the books of the Issuer by the Holder hereof in person or by duly authorized attorney, and new Warrant(s) shall be made and delivered by the Issuer to reflect such transfer, upon surrender of this
Warrant at the principal office of the Issuer, properly endorsed (by the Holder executing an assignment in the form attached hereto) and upon payment of any necessary transfer tax imposed upon such transfer. This Warrant is exchangeable at the
principal office of the Issuer for Warrants to purchase the same aggregate number of shares of Warrant Stock, each new Warrant to represent the right to purchase such number of shares of Warrant Stock as the Holder hereof shall designate at the time
of such exchange. All new Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges (i) shall be dated the Original Issue Date, (ii) shall be identical to this Warrant except as to the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable pursuant thereto and
(iii) shall be delivered to the Holder within a reasonable time, not exceeding three (3) Trading Days after written notice to the Issuer of such Holder’s request for such transfer or exchange. All expenses (other than transfer taxes)
and charges related to the preparation, execution and delivery of any new Warrants by the Issuer pursuant to this Section 2(e) shall be paid by the Issuer.

(f) Continuing Rights of Holder. The Issuer will, at the time of or at any time after each exercise of this Warrant, upon
the request of the Holder hereof, acknowledge in writing the extent, if any, of its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder all rights to which such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the terms of this
Warrant, provided that if any such Holder shall fail to make any such request, the failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Issuer to afford such rights to such Holder.

(g) Compliance with Securities Laws.

(i) The Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant and the shares of Warrant Stock to be
issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and for investment, and that the Holder will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any shares of
Warrant Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof except pursuant to an effective registration statement, or an exemption from registration, under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

(ii) Except as provided in paragraph (iii) below, this Warrant and all certificates representing shares of Warrant
Stock issued upon exercise hereof shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

THIS WARRANT AND THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR THE ISSUER
SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHER EVIDENCE OF ASSURANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE

3



---

LOGO



PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED.

(iii) The Issuer agrees to reissue this Warrant or certificates representing any of the Warrant Stock, without the legend
set forth above if at such time, prior to making any transfer of any such securities, the Holder shall give written notice to the Issuer describing the manner and terms of such transfer. Such proposed transfer will not be effected until:
(a) either (i) the Issuer has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect that the registration of such securities under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such proposed transfer,
(ii) a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition has been filed by the Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission and has become effective under the Securities Act and the Holder has represented
that the Warrant Stock has been or will be sold, (iii) the Issuer has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer that such registration and qualification under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws are not
required, or (iv) the Holder provides the Issuer with reasonable assurances acceptable to the Issuer that such security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; and (b) either (i) the Issuer has received an opinion
of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect that registration or qualification under the securities or “blue sky laws of any state is not required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (ii) compliance
with applicable state securities or “blue sky laws has been effected or a valid exemption exists with respect thereto. The Issuer will respond to any such notice from a Holder within three (3) Trading Days. In the case of any
proposed transfer under this Section 2(g), the Issuer will use reasonable efforts, at the Holder’s expense, to comply with any such applicable state securities or “blue sky laws, but shall in no event be required, (x) to
qualify to do business in any state where it is not then qualified, or (y) to take any action that would subject it to tax or to the general service of process in any state where it is not then subject. The restrictions on transfer contained in
this Section 2(g) shall be in addition to, and not by way of limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer contained in any other section of this Warrant. Whenever a certificate representing the Warrant Stock is required to be issued to the
Holder without a legend, in lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Warrant Stock, the Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Warrant Stock to the Holder by crediting
the account of the Holder’s prime broker with DTC through its DWAC system (to the extent not inconsistent with any provisions of this Warrant). Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Issuer or its transfer agent shall only be
obligated to issue and deliver the shares to the DTC on a holder’s behalf via DWAC if such exercise is in connection with a sale and the Issuer and its transfer agent are participating in DTC through the DWAC system.

(h) No Rights as Stockholder. A Warrant does not entitle the Holder thereof to any of the rights of a stockholder of the
Issuer, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends or other distributions, exercise any preemptive rights to vote or to consent or to receive notice as stockholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of
directors of the Issuer or any other matter.

3. Stock Fully
Paid; Reservation and Listing of Shares; Covenants.

(a) Stock Fully Paid. The Issuer represents, warrants,
covenants and agrees that all shares of Warrant Stock which may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant or otherwise hereunder will, when issued in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges (other than liens or charges created by the Holder and any income taxes attributable to the issuance and delivery of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant). The Issuer agrees that the
shares of Warrant Stock so issued will be deemed to have been issued to the Holder as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant and payment of the Warrant Price are delivered to the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this
Warrant, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Issuer may then be closed or certificates representing such shares of Warrant Stock may not be actually delivered on such date. The Issuer further covenants and agrees that during the
period within which this Warrant may be exercised, the Issuer will at all times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of this Warrant a number of shares of Common Stock equal to at least the aggregate number of
shares of Common Stock necessary to provide for the exercise of this Warrant, as such necessary number of shares of Common Stock may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 4 hereof.

(b) Reservation. If any shares of Common Stock required to be reserved for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant or as
otherwise provided hereunder require registration or qualification with any governmental authority under any federal or state law before such shares may be so issued, the Issuer will in good faith use its best efforts as expeditiously as possible at
its expense to cause such shares to be duly registered or qualified. If the Issuer shall list or cause to have quoted any shares of Common Stock on any securities exchange or market it will, at its expense, list or cause to have quoted thereon,
maintain and increase when necessary such listing or quotation, of, all shares of Warrant Stock from time to time issued upon exercise of this Warrant or as otherwise provided hereunder, and, to the extent permissible under the applicable securities
exchange rules, all unissued shares of Warrant Stock which are at any time issuable hereunder, so long as any shares of Common Stock shall be so listed or quoted. The Issuer will also so list or cause to have quoted on each securities exchange or
market, and will maintain such listing or quotation of, any other securities which the Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant if at the time any securities of the same class shall be listed or quoted on
such securities exchange or market by the Issuer.

(c) Covenants.

(i) The Issuer shall not by any action including, without limitation, amending the certificate of incorporation or the
by-laws of the Issuer, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant,
but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of the Holder hereof against dilution (to the extent specifically
provided herein) or impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Issuer will (A) not permit the par value, if any, of its Common Stock to exceed the then effective Warrant Price, (B) not amend or modify any provision
of the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Issuer in any manner that would adversely affect the rights of the Holders of the Warrants, (C) take all such action as may be

5



---

LOGO



reasonably
necessary in order that the Issuer may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances and restrictions (other than as provided herein) upon the exercise of this
Warrant, and (D) use its best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from its stockholders and any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be reasonably necessary to enable the Issuer to perform its
obligations under this Warrant.

(ii) The Issuer covenants that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to
timely file all reports and other documents required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act other than Form 8-K reports (or, if the Issuer is not subject to such reporting requirements, it will, upon the request of any Holder, make publicly
available such information as necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act), and it will use commercially reasonable efforts to take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, in each case to the extent
required from time to time to enable such holder to sell the Warrants without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (A) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such rules may be amended from
time to time, or (B) any successor rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Upon the written request of any Holder, the Issuer will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has
complied with such requirements.

(d) Loss, Theft, Destruction of Warrants. Upon receipt of evidence
satisfactory to the Issuer of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer or, in
the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Issuer will make and deliver, in lieu of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant, a new Warrant of like tenor and representing the right to purchase the
same number of shares of Common Stock.

4. Adjustment of Warrant Price and Number of Shares Issuable Upon
Exercise. The Warrant Price and the Warrant Share Number shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 4. The Issuer shall give the Holder notice of any event described below which requires an adjustment pursuant
to this Section 4 in accordance with the notice provisions set forth in Section 5.

(a)
Recapitalization, Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. In case the Issuer after the Original Issue Date shall do any of the following (each, a Triggering Event): (i) consolidate or merge with or into any
other Person and the Issuer shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) permit any other Person to consolidate with or merge into the Issuer and the Issuer shall be the continuing or surviving
Person but, in connection with such consolidation or merger, any Capital Stock of the Issuer shall be changed into or exchanged for securities of any other Person or cash or any other property, or (iii) effect a share exchange or similar
transaction with any other Person, or (iv) transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other Person, or (v) effect a capital reorganization or reclassification of its Capital Stock (other than any transaction
covered by Section 4(b) hereof), then, and as a condition to each such Triggering Event, proper and adequate provision shall be made so that, upon the basis and the terms and in the manner provided in this Warrant, the Holder of this Warrant
shall be entitled upon the exercise hereof at

6



---

LOGO



any time after
the consummation of such Triggering Event, to the extent this Warrant is not exercised in full prior to such Triggering Event, to receive at the Warrant Price in effect at the time immediately prior to the consummation of such Triggering Event in
lieu of the Common Stock issuable upon such exercise of this Warrant prior to such Triggering Event, the number or amount of the securities, cash and property to which such Holder would have been entitled upon the consummation of such Triggering
Event if such Holder had exercised the rights represented by this Warrant immediately prior thereto (including the right of a shareholder to elect the type of consideration it will receive upon a Triggering Event), subject to adjustments (subsequent
to such corporate action) as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for elsewhere in this Section 4. In determining the kind and amount of cash, securities or other property receivable upon exercise of this Warrant following
the consummation of such Triggering Event, if the holders of Common Stock have the right to elect the kind or amount of consideration receivable upon consummation of such Triggering Event, then the Holder shall have the right to make a similar
election upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to the kind and amount of cash, securities and/or other property which the Holder will receive upon exercise of this Warrant.

(b) Stock Dividends, Subdivisions and Combinations. If at any time the Issuer shall:

(i) make or issue, or set a record date for the holders of the Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive,
a dividend payable in, or other distribution of, shares of Common Stock,

(ii) subdivide or reclassify its
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, or

(iii) combine or
reclassify its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock,

then
(1) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after the occurrence of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification
shall be adjusted to equal the number of shares of Common Stock which a record holder of the same number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such record date or effective date would own or be entitled
to receive after such date, and (2) the Warrant Price then in effect shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such record date or effective date multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for
which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the new number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after such adjustment as determined in accordance with this
Section 4(b).

(c) Certain Other Distributions. If at any time the Issuer shall make or issue, or set a
record date for the holders of the Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive, any dividend or other distribution of:

(i) cash (other than a regular cash dividend payable out of surplus or net profits legally available for the payment of
dividends under the laws of the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Issuer on a quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis pursuant to a publicly announced dividend policy),

7

LOGO



(ii) any
evidences of indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries, or any shares of Capital Stock of any Person or any other securities or property of any nature whatsoever of any Person (other than cash, Common Stock Equivalents or Additional
Shares of Common Stock), or

(iii) any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of
indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries, any shares of Capital Stock of any Person or any other securities or property of any nature whatsoever of any Person (other than cash, Common Stock Equivalents or Additional Shares of Common
Stock),

then (1) the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be
adjusted to equal the product of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such adjustment multiplied by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the Per Share Market Value of Common
Stock at the date of taking such record and (B) the denominator of which shall be such Per Share Market Value minus the amount allocable to one share of Common Stock of any such cash so distributable and of the Fair Market Value of any and all
such evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock, other securities or property or warrants or other subscription or purchase rights so distributable, and (2) the Warrant Price then in effect shall be adjusted to equal (A) the Warrant Price
then in effect multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by (B) the new number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately after such adjustment. A reclassification of the Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value) into shares of Common Stock and shares of any other class of stock
shall be deemed a distribution by the Issuer to the holders of its Common Stock of such shares of such other class of stock within the meaning of this Section 4(c) and, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be changed into a larger or
smaller number of shares of Common Stock as a part of such reclassification, such change shall be deemed a subdivision, combination or reclassification, as the case may be, of the outstanding shares of Common Stock within the meaning of
Section 4(b).

(d) Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock.

(i) In the event the Issuer shall at any time following the Original Issue Date sell or issue any Additional Shares of
Common Stock (otherwise than as provided in the foregoing subsections (a) through (c) of this Section 4) without consideration or at a price per share that is lower than the Per Share Market Value on the last Trading Day immediately
preceding the earlier of the date of announcement of such sale or issuance and the date on which the price for such sale or issuance is agreed or fixed, then the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately
after such sale or issuance shall be adjusted to equal the number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such sale or issuance by a fraction, (i) the numerator
of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such sale or issuance and (ii) the denominator of which shall be (x) the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received for
such sale or issuance would purchase at such Per Share Market Value plus (y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such sale or issuance. In such event, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted to that price
determined by multiplying the Warrant Price then in effect by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock

8

LOGO



issuable upon
the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment, and the denominator of which is the new number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence; provided, however,
the Issuer shall not enter into any transaction that would result in the Warrant Price to be adjusted pursuant to this Section 4(d) below $1.93 (the Floor Price), or such higher price that would apply so as not to require approval
of the issuance of the Warrant, the adjustments provided in this Section 4(d) or Section 4(e) or the corresponding issuance of shares of Common Stock hereunder by the Issuer’s stockholders under the NYSE Alternext U.S. requirements
or the applicable requirements of any other securities exchange or market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted or by any other Governmental Authority on of the date of such issuance (Issuer Stockholder Approval), unless
Issuer Stockholder Approval is obtained for the adjustments provided in this Section 4(d) and Section 4(e) and the corresponding issuance of shares of Common Stock hereunder (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, this
Section 4(d) shall not be construed to prohibit the Warrant Price, Floor Price or such other price from being adjusted to reflect any other adjustments made in accordance with this Section 4 (other than adjustments pursuant to this
Section 4(d) or Section 4(e))).

(ii) No adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which
this Warrant shall be exercisable shall be made under paragraph (i) of this Section 4(d) upon the issuance of any Additional Shares of Common Stock which are issued pursuant to the exercise of any Common Stock Equivalents, if any such
adjustment shall previously have been made upon the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents (or upon the issuance of any warrant or other rights therefor) pursuant to Section 4(e).

(e) Issuance of Common Stock Equivalents. If at any time the Issuer shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock
for the purpose of entitling them to receive a distribution of, or shall in any manner (whether directly or by assumption in a merger in which the Issuer is the surviving corporation) issue or sell, any Common Stock Equivalents, whether or not the
rights to exchange or convert thereunder are immediately exercisable, and the price per share for which the Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange shall be less than the Per Share Market Value on the last Trading Day immediately
preceding the earliest of such record date, the date of announcement of such sale or issuance and the date on which the price for such sale or issuance is agreed or fixed, or if, after any such issuance of Common Stock Equivalents, the price per
share for which Additional Shares of Common Stock may be issuable thereafter is amended or adjusted, and such price as so amended or adjusted shall be less than the Per Share Market Value on the last Trading Day immediately preceding the date of
such amendment or adjustment, then the Warrant Price then in effect shall be adjusted as provided in Section 4(d). For purposes of the adjustment provided for in Section 4(d), the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or
exchange of any such Common Stock Equivalent purchase shall be deemed to be issued and outstanding as of the date of such sale and issuance of such Common Stock Equivalent. No further adjustments of the number of shares of Common Stock for which
this Warrant is exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect shall be made upon the actual issue of such Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such Common Stock Equivalents.

(f) Superseding Adjustment. If, at any time after any adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this
Warrant is exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect shall have been made pursuant to Section 4(e) as the result of any sale or issuance of

9



---

LOGO



Common Stock
Equivalents, and (i) such Common Stock Equivalents, or the right of conversion or exchange in such Common Stock Equivalents, shall expire, and all or a portion of such or the right of conversion or exchange with respect to all or a portion of
such Common Stock Equivalents, as the case may be, shall not have been exercised, or (ii) the consideration per share for which shares of Common Stock are issuable pursuant to such Common Stock Equivalents changes, then such previous adjustment
shall be rescinded and annulled and the Additional Shares of Common Stock which were deemed to have been issued by virtue of the computation made in connection with the adjustment so rescinded and annulled shall no longer be deemed to have been
issued by virtue of such computation. Upon the occurrence of an event set forth in this Section 4(f), there shall be a recomputation made of the effect of such Common Stock Equivalents on the basis of: (i) treating the number of Additional
Shares of Common Stock theretofore actually issued or issuable pursuant to the previous exercise of Common Stock Equivalents or any such right of conversion or exchange, as having been issued on the date or dates of any such exercise and for the
consideration actually received and receivable therefor, and (ii) treating any such Common Stock Equivalents which then remain outstanding as having been granted or issued immediately after the time of such change of the consideration per share
for which Additional Shares of Common Stock are issuable under such Common Stock Equivalents; whereupon a new adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect shall be
made, which new adjustment shall supersede the previous adjustment so rescinded and annulled.

(g) Other
Provisions applicable to Adjustments under this Section. The following provisions shall be applicable to the making of adjustments of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and the Warrant Price then in effect
provided for in this Section 4:

(i) Computation of Consideration. To the extent that any Additional
Shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents (or any warrants or other rights therefor) shall be issued for cash consideration, the consideration received by the Issuer therefor shall be the amount of the cash received by the Issuer
therefor, or, if such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are offered by the Issuer for subscription, the subscription price, or, if such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are sold to
underwriters or dealers for public offering without a subscription offering, the initial public offering price (in any such case subtracting any amounts paid or receivable for accrued interest or accrued dividends and without taking into account any
compensation, discounts or expenses paid or incurred by the Issuer for and in the underwriting of, or otherwise in connection with, the issuance thereof). In connection with any merger or consolidation in which the Issuer is the surviving
corporation (other than any consolidation or merger in which the previously outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer shall be changed to or exchanged for the stock or other securities of another corporation), the amount of consideration
received by the Issuer in respect of its issuance of any Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents in such merger or consolidation shall be deemed to be the Fair Market Value of such portion of the assets and business of the
nonsurviving corporation as the Board may determine to be attributable to such Additional Shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, as the case may be. The consideration for any Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to any
warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase the same shall be the consideration received by the Issuer for issuing such warrants or other rights plus the additional consideration payable to the

10



---

LOGO



Issuer upon
exercise of such warrants or other rights. The consideration for any Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of any Common Stock Equivalents shall be the consideration received by the Issuer for issuing warrants or other
rights to subscribe for or purchase such Common Stock Equivalents, plus the consideration paid or payable to the Issuer in respect of the subscription for or purchase of such Common Stock Equivalents, plus the additional consideration, if any,
payable to the Issuer upon the exercise of the right of conversion or exchange in such Common Stock Equivalents. In the event any consideration received by the Issuer for any securities consists of property other than cash or securities acquired in
exchange therefor, the value thereof at the time of issuance or as otherwise applicable shall be equal to the Fair Market Value of such property or such securities. In the event Common Stock is issued with other shares or securities or other assets
of the Issuer for consideration which covers both, the consideration computed as provided in this Section 4(g)(i) shall be allocated among such securities and assets as determined in good faith by the Board.

(ii) Timing of Adjustments. The adjustments required by this Section 4 shall be made whenever and as often as any
specified event requiring an adjustment shall occur, except that any adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable that would otherwise be required may be postponed (except in the case of a subdivision,
combination or reclassification of shares of the Common Stock, as provided for in Section 4(b)) up to but not beyond the date of exercise if such adjustment either by itself or with other adjustments not previously made adds or subtracts less
than one-half percent (0.5%) of the shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the making of such adjustment; provided, however, that the Issuer upon request shall deliver to the Holder a due bill or other
appropriate instrument evidencing the Holder’s right to receive such additional shares, upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment. Any adjustment representing a change of less than such minimum amount (except as aforesaid)
which is postponed shall be carried forward and made as soon as such adjustment, together with other adjustments required by this Section 4 and not previously made, would result in a minimum adjustment or on the date of exercise. For the
purpose of any adjustment, any specified event shall be deemed to have occurred at the close of business on the date of its occurrence.

(iii) Fractional Interests. In computing adjustments under this Section 4, fractional interests in Common Stock shall
be taken into account to the nearest one one-hundredth (1/100th) of a share and calculations of dollar amounts shall be made to the nearest one-tenth (1/10th) of a cent.

(iv) When Adjustment Not Required. If the Issuer shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of
entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution or subscription or purchase rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution to stockholders thereof, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution, subscription
or purchase rights, then thereafter no adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking of such record and any such adjustment previously made in respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled.

(v) Adjustment for Unspecified Actions. If the Issuer takes any action affecting the Common Stock, other than actions
described in this Section 4, which in the

11



---

LOGO



opinion of the
Board would materially and adversely affect the exercise rights of the Holder, the Warrant Price and/or the number of shares of Common Stock received upon exercise of the Warrant shall be adjusted for the Holder’s benefit, to the extent
permitted by law, in such manner, and at such time, as the Board after consultation with the Holder shall reasonably determine to be equitable in the circumstances.

(vi) Proceedings Prior to Any Action Requiring Adjustment. As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which
would require an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4, the Issuer shall take any action which is necessary, including obtaining regulatory, NYSE Alternext U.S. (or any other applicable securities exchange or market) or stockholder approvals or
exemptions, in order that the Issuer may thereafter validly and legally issue as fully paid and nonassessable all shares of Common Stock that the Holder is entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 4, it being
understood that the Issuer shall not be required to seek the consent of any Holder prior to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.

(vii) Adjustment Rules. Any adjustments pursuant to this Section 4 shall be made successively whenever an event
referred to herein shall occur. If an adjustment in Warrant Price made hereunder would reduce the Warrant Price to an amount below par value of the Common Stock, then such adjustment in Warrant Price made hereunder shall reduce the Warrant Price to
the par value of the Common Stock.

(h) Form of Warrant after Adjustments. The form of this Warrant need not be
changed because of any adjustments in the Warrant Price or the number and kind of Securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant.

(i) Escrow of Warrant Stock. If after any property becomes distributable pursuant to this Section 4 by reason of the
taking of any record of the holders of Common Stock, but prior to the occurrence of the event for which such record is taken, and the Holder exercises this Warrant, any shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise by reason of such adjustment shall
be deemed the last shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercised (notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary herein) and such shares or other property shall be held in escrow for the Holder by the Issuer to be issued to the
Holder upon and to the extent that the event actually takes place, upon payment of the current Warrant Price. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary herein, if the event for which such record was taken fails to occur or is rescinded,
then such escrowed shares shall be cancelled by the Issuer and escrowed property returned.

5. Notice of
Adjustments. Whenever the Warrant Price or Warrant Share Number shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4 hereof (for purposes of this Section 5, each an adjustment), the Issuer shall cause its Chief Financial Officer to prepare
and execute a certificate setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated (including a description of the basis on which the Board made any
determination hereunder), and the Warrant Price and Warrant Share Number after giving effect to such adjustment, and shall cause copies of such certificate to be delivered to the Holder of this Warrant no later than promptly (and in no event later
than one business day) after each event giving rise to an adjustment. Any dispute between the Issuer and the Holder of this Warrant with respect to the matters set forth in such certificate

12



---

LOGO



shall, at the
option of the Holder of this Warrant or the Issuer, be resolved pursuant to the Appraisal Procedure. In the event of a transfer of all or a portion of this Warrant pursuant to the terms hereof resulting in multiple Holders of portions of this
Warrant, a majority in interest of Holders shall act on behalf of all Holders with respect to any disputes, including, but not limited to, with respect to the Appraisal Procedure.

6. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Warrant Stock will be issued in connection with any exercise hereof, but in
lieu of such fractional shares, the Issuer shall round the number of shares to be issued upon exercise up or down to the nearest whole number of shares.

against either party hereto, including any action for provisional or conservatory measures or action to enforce any judgment entered by any court in respect of any thereof, may be brought in any federal or state court of competent jurisdiction
located in the Borough of Manhattan in the State of New York, and each party hereto irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction and venue in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and in the courts hearing appeals

process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that the suit,
action or proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper, or that this letter agreement, or the subject matter hereof or thereof, may not be enforced in or by such
courts and further irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the benefit of any defense that would hinder, fetter or delay the levy, execution or collection of any amount to which the party is entitled pursuant to the
final judgment of any court having jurisdiction. Each party expressly acknowledges that the foregoing waiver is intended to be irrevocable under the laws of the State of New York and of the United States of America.

ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS LETTER AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS
CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that each party would not have an adequate
remedy at law for money damages, and irreparable damage would occur, in the event that any of the provisions of this letter agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed
that any party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this letter agreement by the other party and to enforce specifically

the terms and
provisions of this letter agreement against the other party, this being in addition to any other remedy to which either such party is entitled at law or in equity, and each party waives (a) the defense in any action for an injunction or other

ARTICLE II

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 2.1 No Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assignable by operation of law (other than in connection with a
merger, consolidation or similar transaction) or otherwise (any attempted assignment in contravention hereof being null and void); provided that in the event that Mr. Charney or Investor desires to transfer all or any portion of his or its
shares of Common Stock or Warrants to any of his or its Affiliates (other than the Company), it shall be a condition of the effectiveness of such transfer that, and such transfer shall only be effective if, such transferee agrees in writing (with a
copy thereof to be furnished to the other party hereto) to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, except as expressly provided in this Section 2.1 with respect to transfers to Affiliates, this Agreement shall not,
and does not purport to, impose any restrictions or obligations with respect to the transfer by any person of any shares of Common Stock, Warrants or other securities of the Company.

Section 2.2 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 or, if such party is an individual, 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. No waiver of any party to this Agreement, as the case may be, will be
effective unless it is in a writing signed by a duly authorized officer of the waiving party or, if such party is an individual, such 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.

Section 2.3 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws
of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed in that State. All actions and proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined exclusively in any state or federal court in
Delaware. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, any claim that it is not personally subject to
the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve process in accordance with this Agreement, that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced
in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment

prior to
judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that the suit, action or proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the
venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper, or that this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof or thereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts and further irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the
benefit of any defense that would hinder, fetter or delay the levy, execution or collection of any amount to which the party is entitled pursuant to the final judgment of any court having jurisdiction. Each party expressly acknowledges that the
foregoing waiver is intended to be irrevocable under the laws of the State of Delaware and of the United States of America.

Section 2.4 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.

Section 2.5 Specific Performance. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that each party would
not have an adequate remedy at law for money damages, and irreparable damage would occur, 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 any party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement by the other party and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement against the other party, this being
in addition to any other remedy to which either such party is entitled at law or in equity, and each party waives (a) the defense in any action for an injunction or other equitable relief that a remedy at law would be adequate and
(b) agrees that any such action for injunctive relief or specific performance may be brought in (and hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of) any federal or state court in the State of Delaware.

Section 2.6 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any person (including the
officers and directors of the parties hereto) or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof, or the application of such provision to persons or circumstances
other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, will remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions
contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon a suitable and equitable substitute provision to effect the original
intent of the parties.

Section 2.7 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing contained in this Agreement,
expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any person other than the parties hereto, any benefit, right or remedies.

Section 2.8 Counterparts and Facsimile. 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
