 ARTICLE II 

2.1 Demand Registration. 

(a) Request for Registration. At any time beginning six months after the completion of a Qualified IPO and from time to time
thereafter, FSEP VI (on behalf of the FS Stockholders) or Reed (on behalf of the Reed Stockholders) may make a written request for registration under the Securities Act of all or part of its Registrable Securities (a “Demand
Registration”); provided, that the Stockholder making the request is requesting that at least the Requisite Share Number of its shares be registered; provided further that the Company shall not be obligated to effect
more than two Demand Registrations for the FS Stockholders and two Demand Registrations for the Reed Stockholders. Any such request will specify the number of shares of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold and will also specify the intended
method of disposition thereof. The Company shall give written notice of such registration request within 10 days after the receipt thereof to all other Stockholders and Other Registration Rights Holders. If FSEP VI or Reed requests a Demand
Registration meeting all of the foregoing requirements, each of the other Stockholders (or their Permitted Transferees) and each of the Other Registration Rights Holders shall be entitled to submit to the Company, within 10 days after receipt of
notice of the request for a Demand Registration, a written request to join in such Demand Registration, and if such a follow-on request is made, thereupon the other Stockholders or Other Registration Rights
Holders who made such a follow-on request shall be entitled to include their Registrable Securities in such Demand Registration on a pro rata basis, determined based on the Pro Rata Share then held by FSEP VI
or Reed (including Permitted Transferees), the other Stockholders (including Permitted Transferees) and the Other Registration Rights Holders up to the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in such Demand Registration. The Company
shall not have any right to participate in a Demand Registration. 
 (b) Effective Registration. A registration will not count as a
Demand Registration (or request therefor) until the registration statement filed under the Securities Act with respect thereto has been declared effective by the SEC. 

(c) Underwritten Offering. If FSEP VI or Reed so elects, the offering of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand
Registration shall be in the form of an underwritten offering. The Company and the initiating Stockholder of the Demand Registration shall jointly select one or more nationally recognized firms of investment bankers to act as the managing
Underwriter or Underwriters in connection with such offering and shall jointly select any additional managers to be used in connection with the offering. 

(d) Required Delays. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 2.1 to the contrary, if any request
for Demand Registration is delivered at a time when (i) a Demand Registration has become effective in the previous 90 days, (ii) the Company has filed a Registration Statement with respect to an underwritten primary registration of Common
Stock on behalf of the Company that has become effective in the previous 90 days or has determined or is currently planning (and the Board has approved or is expected to approve such determination or plan) to file such a Registration Statement (so
long as a Registration Statement is filed with respect thereto within one month of the Stockholder’s or Stockholders’ request for Demand Registration), in which case the Company may require the Stockholder or Stockholders to postpone such
request 

  
 5 













 
until the expiration of the 90-day period following the effective date of such registration; or (iii) in the opinion of a majority of the Board, such
registration would (x) require premature disclosure of material information that the Company has a valid reason for preserving as confidential and such disclosure would materially and adversely affect the Company, (y) render the Company
unable to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act or Exchange Act, or (z) adversely affect a material acquisition, disposition, merger or other similar material transaction involving the Company, or otherwise materially and adversely
affect the Company or the market for the Company’s Common Stock (it being understood that the ordinary effect of a Demand Registration on the market for securities does not meet the foregoing standard) (any of the foregoing, a “Material
Event Postponement”), the Company, with the prior authorization of the Board, may require the Stockholder to postpone such request for an appropriate period (not to exceed 90 days in any 12 month period); provided, however,
that the Company may not require such a postponement more than one time for the conditions described in clauses (i) or (ii) above in any 12 month period. In the event of a Material Event Postponement, the Company shall use its reasonable best
efforts to effect such registration as promptly as possible after removal of the reasons for the Material Event Postponement. 
 2.2
Registration on Form S-3. 
 (a) Request for Registration. If at such time after the
Company has qualified for the use of Form S-3 (or any successor form to Form S-3) promulgated under the Securities Act, FSEP VI (on behalf of the FS Stockholders) or
Reed (on behalf of the Reed Stockholders) may make a written request that the Company file a registration statement on Form S-3 for a public offering of shares of all or part of its or their Registrable
Securities (an “S-3 Registration”); provided, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration pursuant to this Section 2.2 if
(i) the Company effected two registration statements on Form S-3 pursuant to this Section 2.2 during the preceding 12-month period or
(ii) such S-3 Registration covers an offering of less than $10,000,000 of Registrable Securities. Any such request will specify the number of shares of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold and will
also specify the intended method of disposition thereof. The Company shall give written notice of such registration request within ten days after the receipt thereof to all other Stockholders and Other Registration Rights Holders. If FSEP VI (on
behalf of the FS Stockholders) or Reed (on behalf of the Reed Stockholders) requests an S-3 Registration meeting all of the foregoing requirements, each of the other Stockholders (or their Permitted
Transferees) and each of the Other Registration Rights Holders shall be entitled to submit to the Company, within 10 days after receipt of notice of such request for an S-3 Registration, a written request to
join in such S¬3 Registration, and if such a follow-on request is made, thereupon the other Stockholders or Other Registration Rights Holders who made such a
follow-on request shall be entitled to include Registrable Securities in such S-3 Registration on a pro rata basis, determined based on the Pro Rata Share then held by
the participating Stockholders (including Permitted Transferees) and the Other Registration Rights Holders up to the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in such S¬3 Registration. 

(b) Effective Registration. A registration will not count as a S-3 Registration (or request
therefor) until it has become effective. 

  
 6 













 (c) Underwritten Offering. If the Company or the initiating Stockholder of a S-3 Registration so elects, the offering of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such S-3 Registration shall be in the form of an underwritten offering. The Company and the
initiating Stockholder of the S-3 Registration shall jointly select one or more nationally recognized firms of investment bankers to act as the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in connection with such
offering and shall jointly select any additional managers to be used in connection with the offering. 
 (d) Required Delays.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 2.2 to the contrary, if any request for S-3 Registration is delivered at a time when (i) a Demand Registration has become
effective in the previous 90 days, (ii) the Company has filed a Registration Statement with respect to an underwritten primary registration of Common Stock on behalf of the Company that has become effective in the previous 90 days or has
determined or is currently planning (and the Board has approved or is expected to approve such determination or plan) to file such a Registration Statement (so long as a Registration Statement is filed with respect thereto within one month of the
Stockholder’s or Stockholders’ request for S-3 Registration), in which case the Company may require the Stockholder or Stockholders to postpone such request until the expiration of the 90-day period following the effective date of such registration, or (iii) in the opinion of a majority of the Company’s Board such registration would result in a Material Event Postponement, the Company,
with the prior authorization of the Board, may require the Stockholder to postpone such request for an appropriate period (not to exceed 90 days in any 12 month period); provided, however, that the Company may not require such a
postponement more than one time for the conditions described in clauses (i) or (ii) above in any 12 month period. In the event of a Material Event Postponement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect such registration as
promptly as possible after removal of the reasons for the Material Event Postponement. 
 2.3 Piggy-Back Registration. If at any time
after the closing of the Company’s Qualified IPO, the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act, with respect to an offering by the Company for its own account or for the account of any of its respective
security holders of any security of the same class as the Registrable Securities (other than a Registration Statement on Form S-4 or S-8 (or any substitute form that may
be adopted by the SEC), or a Registration Statement filed in connection with an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing security holders), which registration would permit the inclusion of such Registrable
Securities pursuant to this Section 2.3, then the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to the Stockholders and Other Registration Rights Holders as soon as practicable, and such notice shall offer such
Stockholders (and their Permitted Transferees) and Other Registration Rights Holders the opportunity to register such number of shares of Registrable Securities as each such Stockholder or Other Registration Rights Holder may request in writing
within 10 days of receipt of such notice (which request shall specify the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Stockholder or Other Registration Rights Holder and the intended method of distribution thereof) (a
“Piggy-Back Registration”). The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Piggy-Back
Registration to be included on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company included therein to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of distribution
thereof. Subject to Section 2.4(b), any Stockholder or Other Registration Rights Holder shall have the right to withdraw its request for inclusion of its Registrable Securities in any Piggy-Back Registration by giving
written notice to the Company of its request to withdraw within 10 days of its request for inclusion; provided, that the Registration Statement including such shares (a “Piggy-Back Registration Statement”) is not yet
effective. The Company may withdraw a Piggy-Back Registration Statement at any time prior to the time it becomes effective in its sole discretion.

 2.4 Reduction of Offering. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, if the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of an offering described in
Section 2.1, Section 2.2 or Section 2.3 determine that the size of the offering that the Stockholders, the Company or any other Persons intend to make is such that the
success of the offering or the price at which the offering would reasonably be expected to occur would be adversely affected by inclusion of the Registrable Securities requested to be included, then (i) with respect to a Demand Registration or
an S-3 Registration, if the size of the offering is the basis of such Underwriter’s or Underwriters’ determination, the Company shall not be required to include in such registration an amount of
Registrable Securities requested to be included in such offering equal to the Excess Amount, such reduction to be allocated pro rata among all Selling Holders according to the Pro Rata Share of such Selling Holders, and (ii) in the case of a
Piggy-Back Registration, if securities are being offered for the account of other Persons as well as the Company, the securities the Company seeks to include shall have priority over securities sought to be included by any other Person (including
the Stockholders and Other Registration Rights Holders) and, with respect to the Registrable Securities intended to be offered by Stockholders or Other Registration Rights Holders, any reduction in the amount of securities to be offered by such
Stockholders or Other Registration Rights Holders will be allocated pro rata among all Stockholders or Other Registration Rights Holders according to their Pro Rata Share (it being understood that with respect to the Stockholders and Other
Registration Rights Holders, such reduction may be all of such class of securities). 
 (b) If, as a result of the proration provisions of
Section 2.4(a), any Stockholder or Other Registration Rights Holder shall not be entitled to include all Registrable Securities in a Demand Registration, S-3 Registration or
Piggy-Back Registration that such Stockholder or Other Registration Rights Holder has requested to be included, such Stockholder or Other Registration Rights Holder may elect to withdraw his request to include Registrable Securities in such
registration (a “Withdrawal Election”); provided, however, that a Withdrawal Election shall be irrevocable and, after making a Withdrawal Election, a Stockholder or Other Registration Rights Holder shall no longer have any right to
include Registrable Securities in the registration as to which such Withdrawal Election was made. 
 ARTICLE III 

3.1 Filings; Information. Whenever FSEP VI (on behalf of the FS Stockholders) or Reed (on behalf of the Reed Stockholders) requests
that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to Section 2.1 or Section 2.2, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities in
accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof as quickly as practicable, and in connection with any such request: 
 (a) The
Company shall, subject to Section 2.1(d) or Section 2.2(d), as applicable, as expeditiously as practicable prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement on any form for which the Company
then qualifies and which form shall be available for the sale 

  
 8 













 
of the Registrable Securities to be registered thereunder in accordance with the intended method of distribution thereof, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such filed registration
statement to be declared effective as expeditiously as practicable thereafter, and use reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to remain effective until the earlier of (i) 90 days from the date such Registration Statement was
declared effective or (ii) the date on which the sale of Registrable Securities has been completed. If the Company receives multiple requests for registration in accordance with this Agreement, then, except as provided in
Section 2.1(a) or Section 2.2(a), such requests shall be given priority based upon the order in which they were received. 

(b) The Company shall, prior to filing any Registration Statement, prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish to each Selling
Holder and one counsel representing all the Selling Holders and each Underwriter, if any, of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement, copies of each such document as proposed to be filed, together with exhibits thereto,
which documents, in the case of a Demand Registration or S-3 Registration, will be subject to review and comment by one counsel representing all the Selling Holders (and the Company will make such changes and
additions thereto as reasonably requested), and thereafter furnish to each Selling Holder, such counsel and Underwriter, if any, such number of copies of such Registration Statement, each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all
exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as such Selling Holder or Underwriter may reasonably request
in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Selling Holder pursuant to such Registration Statement. 

(c) After the filing of the Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly notify each Selling Holder of Registrable Securities covered by
such Registration Statement of any stop order issued or threatened by the SEC and promptly take all reasonable actions required to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if entered. 

(d) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities under such other securities
or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as any Selling Holder reasonably (in light of such Selling Holder’s intended plan of distribution) requests and (ii) cause such Registrable Securities to be registered with or
approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities in the United States as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company and do any and all other acts and things that may be reasonably necessary or advisable to
enable such Selling Holder to consummate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Selling Holder; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to (A) qualify generally to do business in any
jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this paragraph (d), (B) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (C) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it would not

 9 













 
Registrable Securities or otherwise used in connection with the sale thereof, such prospectus will comply with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder and
will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and promptly make available to each Selling Holder copies of any such
supplement or amendment. 
 (f) The Company shall enter into customary agreements (including, if applicable, an underwriting agreement and lock-up agreement in customary forms) and take such other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities. 

(g) The Company shall promptly deliver to each Selling Holder of such Registrable Securities and each Underwriter, if any, subject to
restrictions imposed by the United States federal government or any agency or instrumentality thereof, copies of all written correspondence between the SEC and the Company, its counsel or auditors with respect to the Registration Statement (or, in
the case of substantive unwritten correspondence, a description thereof) and make available for inspection by any Selling Holder of such Registrable Securities, any Underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement
and any attorney, accountant or other professional retained by any such Selling Holder or Underwriter (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all pertinent financial and other records, corporate documents and properties of the Company
(collectively, the “Records”), subject to each Selling Holder, on behalf of itself and its agents, entering into a customary confidentiality agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company, and to restrictions imposed by
any governmental authority governing access to classified information, as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to conduct a reasonable due diligence investigation, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all
information reasonably requested by any Inspectors in connection with such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, records that the Company determines, in good faith, to be confidential and which it notifies the Inspectors are
confidential or that the provision of such records would forfeit attorney-client privilege shall not be disclosed by the Inspectors unless (i) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in such
registration statement or (ii) to the extent it is required by a court or administrative order or other legal process or by applicable law; provided that each Selling Holder of such Registrable Securities further agrees that it will,
upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought pursuant to clause (ii), give notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of the Records deemed confidential. Each Selling
Holder of such Registrable Securities agrees that information obtained by it solely as a result of such inspections shall be deemed confidential and shall not be used by it or its agents as the basis for any transactions in the securities of the
Company or its Affiliates unless and until such is made generally available to the public. 
 (h) The Company shall otherwise use reasonable
best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering a period of 12 months, beginning within three months after the
effective date of the registration statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder. 

  
 10 













 (i) The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities
to be listed on each national securities exchange or automated quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then traded, listed or quoted (if any). 

(j) The Company may require each Selling Holder of Registrable Securities to promptly furnish in writing to the Company such information
regarding the distribution of the Registrable Securities and the Selling Holder as the Company may from time to time reasonably request and such other information as may be legally required in connection with such registration. 

(k) The Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and other members of the management of
the Company shall reasonably cooperate in any offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2.1 or Section 2.2, including, without limitation, participation in meetings with potential investors, preparation of materials for such
investors, and making management of the Company available for “road show” presentations and similar selling efforts. 
 Each
Selling Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3.1(e) hereof, such Selling Holder will immediately discontinue disposition of
Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until such Selling Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by
Section 3.1(e) hereof (such period during which a Selling Holder is required to refrain from disposition of Registrable Securities, a “Suspension Period”), and, if so directed by the Company, such Selling
Holder will deliver to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Selling Holder’s possession, of the most recent prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event the
Company shall give such notice, the Company shall extend the period during which such Registration Statement shall be maintained effective (including the period referred to in Section 3.1(a) hereof) by the number of days
during the period from and including the date of the giving of notice pursuant to Section 3.1(e) hereof to the date when the Company shall make available to the Selling Holders of Registrable Securities covered by such
Registration Statement a prospectus supplemented or amended to conform with the requirements of Section 3.1(e) hereof.

incurred in connection with the registration thereunder, whether or not such registration becomes effective: (i) all registration and filing fees, (ii) all fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws, (iii) all

connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities, (vi) all fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and all fees and expenses of the Company’s independent registered public account firm and other auditors retained by the

and agents, and each Person, if any, who controls such Selling Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability and any action in respect
thereof to which such Selling Holder, its officers, directors and agents, and any such controlling Person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based
upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or
supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus, or arises out of, or is based upon, any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and
shall reimburse each Selling Holder, its officers, directors and agents, and each such controlling Person for any legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by that Selling Holder, its officers, directors and agents, or any such controlling Person
in investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. The Company also agrees to indemnify any Underwriters of the Registrable Securities, their officers and directors and each Person who
controls such Underwriters on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification of the Selling Holders provided in this Section 4.1. 

(b) The indemnity agreement contained in Section 4.1(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such
loss, claim, damage or liability and any action in respect thereof if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), nor shall the Company be liable in any
such case for any loss, claim, damage, liability and any action in respect thereof to the extent that it arises from or is based upon written information relating to the Indemnified Party furnished expressly for use in connection with such
registration by such Person, nor shall the Company be liable to any Person for any such loss, claim, damage or liability and any action in respect thereof to the extent it arises from or is based upon (a) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities delivered by such Person after such Person had received written notice from the Company pursuant to
Section 3.1(e) that such Registration Statement or prospectus contained such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact and stating specifically that a Suspension Period is then in effect, (b) any
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading after such Person has received written notice from the Company pursuant to
Section 3.1(e) that such Registration Statement or prospectus contained such omission or alleged omission and stating specifically that a Suspension Period is then in effect, or (c) the failure of such Person to
deliver any preliminary or final prospectus, or any amendments or supplements thereto, required under applicable securities laws, including the Securities Act, to be so delivered.

 4.2 Indemnification by Selling Holders. Each Selling Holder agrees, severally but not
jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers, directors and agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same
extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to such Selling Holder, but only with reference to information related to such Selling Holder furnished in writing by such Selling Holder or on such Selling Holder’s behalf expressly for use in
any Registration Statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus. Each Selling Holder also agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Underwriters of the Registrable
Securities, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such Underwriters on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification of the Company provided in this Section 4.2. In no event, however, shall
any indemnity obligation under this Section 4.2 exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Selling Holder. 

4.3 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant
to Section 4.1 or Section 4.2 (an “Indemnified Party”) of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the Indemnified Party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be
made against the Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (an “Indemnifying Party”) promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the claim or the commencement of such action provided that the failure to notify the
Indemnifying Party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an Indemnified Party except to the extent of any actual prejudice resulting therefrom. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an Indemnified Party, and it
shall notify the Indemnifying Party thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified Indemnifying Party, to assume 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 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; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ 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, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be for the
account of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed otherwise or (ii) based upon the advice of counsel of such Indemnified Party representation of both parties by the
same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflict of interests between them, in which case the Indemnifying Party shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expense of one counsel for the Indemnified Party. The
Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), but if settlement is made with such consent or if an
Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder and there is a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against any loss, claim, damage, or liability by reason of such
settlement or judgment. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, 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 settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding.

 4.4 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Article IV is
unavailable to, or is insufficient to hold harmless, the Indemnified Parties in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities 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 statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that no person
found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) by a court of competent jurisdiction shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged
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. Each Selling Holder’s obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 4.4 are several in that proportion which the net proceeds of the offering received by such Selling Holding bears to the total net
proceeds of the offering received by all the Selling Holders, and not joint. 
 The Company and the Selling Holders agree that it would not
be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the
immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations
set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.4, no
Selling Holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the net proceeds from the offering received by such Selling Holder. 

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

ARTICLE V 
 5.1
Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No Person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such Person (a) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements
approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, lock-up agreements and
other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements and this Agreement.

 5.2 Rule 144. The Company covenants that, after it becomes subject to the reporting
obligations of the Exchange Act, it shall use reasonable best efforts to file any reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act and that it shall take such further action as any Stockholder (or Permitted Transferee) may reasonably
request, all to the extent reasonably required from time to time to enable Stockholders (and Permitted Transferees) to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by
(a) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time, or (b) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the request of any Stockholder (or Permitted Transferee), the Company shall
deliver to such Stockholder (or Permitted Transferee) a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. 
 5.3
Holdback Agreements. 
 (a) In connection with any registration statement filed by the Company for an underwritten public offering,
each Stockholder of Registrable Securities (whether or not such Stockholder is participating in such registration) (i) agrees not to effect any sale or distribution of the security being registered or of a similar security of the Company, or
any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, including a sale pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A under the Securities Act, during the seven days prior to and during the 180 days (in the case of the
Company’s Qualified IPO) or 90 days (in the case of other underwritten public offerings) beginning on and continuing after the effective date of such registration statement (except as part of such registration) or such shorter period as may be
reasonably requested by the managing underwriter, and (ii) agrees to enter into customary lock-up agreements reasonably requested by the Company or the managing underwriter which are consistent with the
foregoing or which are necessary to give further effect thereto. Each such holdback period in clause (i) and lock-up agreement described in clause (ii) shall apply equally to all Stockholders.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions contained in any underwriting agreement entered into in connection with any underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the
underwriting agreement shall control. 
 (b) With respect to a Demand Registration effected pursuant to
Section 2.1 or an S-3 Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof, the Company agrees not to effect any sale or distribution of any securities
similar to those being registered in accordance with Section 2.1 or Section 2.2 hereof, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during such period as
is reasonably required by the Underwriter beginning on and continuing after the effective date of any registration statement (except as part of a registration statement where the Stockholder making such Demand Registration or S-3 Registration consents) or the commencement of a public distribution of Registrable Securities; provided, however, that the provisions of this paragraph (b) shall not prevent the conversion or
exchange of any securities pursuant to their terms into or for other securities and shall not prevent the issuance of securities by the Company pursuant to any Registration Statement on Form S-4 or S-8 (or any substitute form that may be adopted by the SEC) or a Registration Statement filed in connection with an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing security holders,
under any employee benefit, stock option or stock subscription plans or in private placements. 

  
 15 













 5.4 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date of this
Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of FSEP VI, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company that would grant any registration rights to third parties that are more
favorable than or inconsistent with the rights granted hereunder. 
 5.5 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement, and all obligations
and rights hereunder, shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that no rights of any Stockholder under this Agreement may be assigned to any Person
other than to a Permitted Transferee of such Stockholder, and no such Permitted Transferee shall be allowed to further transfer or assign such rights to any third Person; and provided, further, that prior to (and as a condition
precedent to the effectiveness of) any assignment or other transfer from a Stockholder to a Permitted Transferee thereof, such Permitted Transferee shall enter into a written agreement with such Stockholder and the Company (which shall also be for
the benefit of the other parties hereto and all other Permitted Transferees), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, agreeing to be bound by all terms and conditions of this Agreement which are applicable to such Stockholder.

 5.6 No Waivers; Amendments. 

(a) 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 rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies
provided by law. 
 (b) This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented only with the written consent of FSEP and Reed. Any such
amendment, modification or supplement so consented to in writing shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns (if any). 

(c) Any provision of this Agreement may be waived if, but only if, such waiver is in writing and is signed by the party against whom the
enforcement of such waiver is sought. 
 5.7 Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Agreement
must be in writing and will be deemed duly given, unless otherwise expressly indicated to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) when personally delivered, (ii) upon receipt of a telephonic facsimile transmission with a confirmed telephonic
transmission answer back or (iii) one (1) business day after having been dispatched by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, addressed to the parties or their permitted assigns at the addresses set forth on Exhibit A (or at
such other address or number as is given in writing by either party to the other). 
 5.8 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be
construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any conflicts or choice of law principles that would require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. 

  
 16 













 5.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and
understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings, written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof. 

5.10 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or
provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdictions, it being intended that all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. 

5.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic
transmission), each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
