 AMENDMENT

 NOW, THEREFORE, the parties to this Amendment do hereby amend the Agreement as follows: 
 Section 2.1 Section 2.1 of the Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows: 
 “2.1 Right to Piggyback. Whenever the Company proposes to register any of its equity securities under the Securities Act or equivalent
foreign securities laws (other than (a) pursuant to a Demand Registration or (b) in connection with registration on Form F-4, Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any successor or similar form or foreign securities law equivalents) and
the registration form to be used may be used for the registration of Registrable Securities (a “Piggyback Registration”), the Company will give prompt written notice to all holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to
effect such a registration and, subject to Sections 2.3 and 2.4 below, will include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within 15 days after the
delivery of the Company’s notice; provided, however, that in the case of an Initial Public Offering, the timing for the Company’s giving of written notice to all holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to effect a
registration, the timing for holders of Registrable Securities to request inclusion for their Registrable Securities in such registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Company shall be required to include in such
registration may be as otherwise agreed by the Company and the Majority Sponsors (provided that any reduction in the number of Registrable Securities that the Company shall, as between holders of Registrable Securities, be on a pro rata basis based
on the number of Registrable Securities owned by each such holder). Each such Company notice shall specify the approximate number of Company equity securities to be registered and the anticipated per share price range for such offering, except in
the case of an Initial Public Offering as may be otherwise agreed by the Company and the Majority Sponsors.”
