 OTHER COVENANTS OF THE SHAREHOLDER 
 SECTION 1.1. Voting of Shares. From
the date hereof until termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof (the “Term”), at any meeting of the shareholders of the Company, however called, and at any adjournment or postponement thereof, and in any
action by consent of the shareholders of the Company, the Shareholder shall (A) appear at such meeting or otherwise cause its Shares to be counted as present thereat for purposes of establishing a quorum and (B) vote (or cause to be voted)
its Shares in favor of the Proposals and such other matters as may be necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement. 
 SECTION 1.2. No Inconsistent Arrangements. Except as contemplated by this Agreement or as described in Schedule 1.2, the Shareholder shall not during the Term (i) transfer, or consent
to any transfer of, any or all of the Shareholder’s Shares or any interest therein, or create or permit to exist any lien or other encumbrance on such Shares, (ii) enter into any contract, option or other agreement or understanding with

 SECTION 1.3. Proxy; Reliance. The Shareholder hereby revokes any and
all prior proxies or powers of attorney in respect of any of the Shareholder’s Shares and constitutes and appoints David M. Greenhouse and Austin W. Marxe, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, at any time during the Term, as its

 The Shareholder hereby
represents and warrants to the Company and the Investors as follows: 
 SECTION 2.1. Due Authorization, etc. The
Shareholder has the legal capacity to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement, to appoint the Proxy and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Shareholder
and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Shareholder, enforceable against the Shareholder in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws and except
that the availability of equitable remedies, including specific performance, is subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding for such remedy may be brought.

performance of this Agreement by the Shareholder will not, require any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or filing with or notification to, any governmental or regulatory authority (other than any necessary filing under the Exchange
Act), domestic or foreign, except where the failure to obtain such consents, approvals, authorizations or permits, or to make such filings or notifications, would not prevent or delay the performance by the Shareholder of the Shareholder’s
obligations under this Agreement. 
 SECTION 2.3. Ownership of Shares. After giving effect to the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the Shareholder will be the record and beneficial owner of the Shares set forth opposite its name on Schedule I hereto. On the date hereof, such Shares constitute all of the Shares owned of record or

(i) with the prior written consent of the Required Investors, (ii) upon the approval of the Proposals by the Company’s shareholders at the Shareholders Meeting at which a quorum was present and acting throughout, or
(iii) automatically and without any required action of the parties hereto upon termination of the Purchase Agreement in accordance with its terms. No such termination of this Agreement shall relieve any party hereto from any liability for any
breach of this Agreement prior to termination. 
 SECTION 3.3. Third Party Beneficiary. The Investors are express third
party beneficiaries of this Agreement and shall have the right to enforce the provisions hereof against the parties hereto as if the Investors were a party hereto. No amendment, modification or waiver of the terms of this Agreement shall be

 SECTION 3.5. No
Waiver. The failure of any party hereto to exercise any right, power or remedy provided under this agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity, or to insist upon compliance by any other party hereto with its
obligations hereunder, or any custom or practice of the parties at variance with the terms hereof, shall not constitute a waiver by such party of its right to exercise any such or other right, power or remedy or to demand such compliance.

 SECTION 3.6. Specific Performance. The Shareholder acknowledges that if the
Shareholder fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement, immediate and irreparable harm or injury would be caused to the Company and the Investors for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy. In such event, the
Shareholder agrees that the Company and each Investor shall have the right, in addition to any other rights it may have, to specific performance of this Agreement. Accordingly, should the Company or any Investor institute an action or proceeding
seeking specific enforcement of the provisions hereof, the Shareholder hereby waives the claim or defense that the Company or such Investor has an adequate remedy at law and hereby agrees not to assert in any such action or proceeding the claim or
defense that such a remedy at law exists.
