 (a) Each Holder acknowledges that the Shares have not been registered
under the Securities Act and may not be Transferred except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Each Holder covenants that the Shares will
only be disposed of pursuant to an effective registration statement under, and in compliance with the requirements of, the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities


  
 3 













 
Act, and in compliance with any applicable state and foreign securities laws. In connection with any Transfer of the Shares other than a Transfer (i) pursuant to an effective registration
statement, (ii) to the Company or (iii) pursuant to Rule 144, the Company may require the Holder to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the Holder and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of
which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such Transfer does not require registration under the Securities Act. 

(b) Each Holder agrees to the affixing, so long as is required by this Section 2.1, of the following legend on any certificate or
book-entry position evidencing any of the Shares: 
 THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM UNDER THE ACT AND THE RULES AND REGULATIONS THEREUNDER AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

 Certificates or book-entry positions evidencing the Shares shall not be required to contain such legend or any other legend (i) following any
sale of such Shares pursuant to an effective registration statement (including the Registration Statement described in Section 3.1) covering the resale of the Shares, (ii) following any sale of such Shares pursuant to Rule 144 or if the
Shares are transferrable by a person who is not an Affiliate of the Company or the applicable Holder pursuant to Rule 144 without any volume or manner of sale restrictions thereunder, (iii) if Holder is not an Affiliate of the Company, six
(6) months following the Closing, provided, however, that in the case of (i), (ii) and (iii), above, the Holder provides the Company with customary legal representation letters reasonably acceptable to the Company or (iv) if
the Holder provides the Company with a legal opinion reasonably acceptable to the Company to the effect that the legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act. Whenever such restrictions shall cease and terminate as to
any Shares, the Holder of such securities shall be entitled to receive from the Company upon a written request in writing, without expense, new securities of like tenor not bearing the legend set forth herein, and such new securities shall be issued
promptly, but in no event less than five (5) Business Days after a written request to remove such legends. 
 (c) Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, following registration of the Shares, each Holder agrees not to sell any Shares issued to such Holder if the sales of such shares would, when combined with the sale of any other Shares by such Holder in any one
(1) day period, exceed five percent (5%) of the average daily trading volume of the Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange over the five (5) trading days immediately preceding such date of sale; provided,
however, that if the aggregate number of Shares represents less than fifty percent (50%) of the average daily trading volume of the Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange over the five (5) trading days preceding the
Closing Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (the “Average Volume”), such resale volume limitations shall not apply. If the aggregate number of Shares issued to a Holder represents more than the Average Volume, the Company may
place such legends or stock transfer restrictions on the Shares as shall be appropriate for enforcing the provisions of this Section 2(c).

 ARTICLE III 

REGISTRATION AND PROCEDURES 

Section 3.1 S-3 Registration. 

(a) In compliance with the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-3ASR (or such other form that the Company is then eligible to use if not eligible to use Form S-3ASR) covering the resale as a secondary offering to be made on a continuous
basis pursuant to Rule 415 of all Registrable Securities. The registration statement (or new registration statement) required to be filed pursuant to this Section 3.1, amendments and supplements to such registration statement, including
post-effective amendments, all exhibits and all materials incorporated by reference in such registration statement other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or
S-8, is referred to herein as the “Registration Statement.” 
 (b) The Company
shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file the Registration Statement with the SEC no later than five (5) Business Days after the Closing Date; provided, however, that no filing of such Registration
Statement shall be required during any period in which the Company’s insider trading policy would prohibit executive officers of the Company from trading in the Company’s securities. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after such filing if not otherwise effective upon filing and to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective as promptly
as practical and in compliance with the Securities Act and usable for resale of Registrable Securities covered thereby from the date of its initial effectiveness until one (1) year following the Closing Date (such period, the
“Effectiveness Period”); provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall require the Company to maintain any Registration Statement once the Shares cease to be Registrable Securities. 

(c) It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 3.2
with respect to Registrable Securities of a Holder that the Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder as required under Section 3.4(a). 

Section 3.2 Registration Procedures; Company Obligations. The Company shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with Section 3.1, and in connection therewith shall have the following obligations: 

(a) No later than the first Business Day after the Registration Statement becomes effective, the Company shall file with the SEC the final
prospectus included therein pursuant to Rule 424. The Registration Statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, shall comply as to form and content with the
applicable requirements of the Securities Act and shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in
which they were made (in the case of any prospectus), not misleading. 

  
 5 













 (b) Subject to Section 3.2(h), the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such
amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective and usable for resale of the Registrable Securities
covered thereby at all times during the Effectiveness Period. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement that is not effective upon filing to become effective as soon as
practicable after such filing. No later than the first Business Day after a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement becomes effective, the Company shall file with the SEC the final prospectus or prospectus supplement included therein
pursuant to Rule 424. 
 (c) The Company shall as promptly as practicable notify the Holders of the time when the Registration Statement
becomes effective or an amendment or supplement to any prospectus forming a part of such Registration Statement has been filed. The Company shall furnish to the Holders, without charge, such documents, including copies of any preliminary prospectus
or final prospectus contained in the Registration Statement or any amendments or supplements thereto, as such Holder may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities covered by the
Registration Statement. 
 (d) The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify, and cooperate with the Holders
of Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement in connection with the registration or qualification of such Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of each state and other
jurisdiction of the United States as any such Holder reasonably requests in writing, and do any and all other things reasonably necessary or advisable to keep such registration or qualification in effect; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or take any action which would subject it to taxation or general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not then
so subject. 
 (e) The Company shall promptly notify (which notice shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the
prospectus) the Holders when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which any prospectus included in, or relating to, the Registration Statement, as then in
effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading (provided
that in no event shall such notice contain any material, non-public information), and, subject to Section 3.2(h), promptly prepare and file with the SEC a supplement to the related prospectus or amendment
to such Registration Statement or any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the Holders, the prospectus 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, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 

  
 6 













 (f) The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any
stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the
withdrawal of such order or suspension as soon as reasonably practicable and to notify the Holders of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such
purpose. 
 (g) The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration
Statement to be (1) listed on the New York Stock Exchange and (2) reflected in the stock ledger maintained by the Company’s transfer agent. 

(h) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at any time after the Registration Statement becomes effective the Company may
delay the disclosure of material, non-public information concerning the Company or any of its subsidiaries if the Board of Directors of the Company has a valid business reason for determining that disclosure
of such information is not in the best interests of the Company and such disclosure is not otherwise required (a “Grace Period”); provided, however, that the Company shall promptly (i) provide written notice to
the Holders of the Grace Period (provided that in no event shall such notice contain any material, non-public information) and the date on which the Grace Period will begin, (ii) use commercially
reasonable efforts to terminate a Grace Period as promptly as possible, and (iii) provide written notice to the Holders of the date on which the Grace Period ends; provided, further, that no Grace Period shall exceed thirty
(30) consecutive days and during any twelve (12) month period such Grace Periods shall not exceed an aggregate of sixty (60) days; provided, further, the Company shall not register any securities for its own account or
that of any other existing or prospective stockholder during such Grace Period. The provisions of Section 3.2(e) shall not be applicable during any Grace Period. Upon expiration of a Grace Period, the Company shall again be bound by the
provisions of Section 3.2(e) with respect to the information giving rise thereto unless such material, non-public information is no longer applicable. 

Section 3.3 Current Public Information. During the Effectiveness Period, the Company shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to (i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are defined in Rule 144, until all the Registrable Securities cease to be Registrable Securities, and so long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities,
furnish to such Holder upon request a written statement by the Company as to its satisfaction of the current public information requirements of Rule 144 and (ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required to
be filed by the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

 Section 3.4 Obligations of the Holders. 

(a) Each Holder shall furnish in writing to the Company such information regarding such Holder, the Registrable Securities held by such Holder
and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by such Holder as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute, or shall cause to be executed, such customary
documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request. In connection therewith, upon the execution of this Agreement, each Holder shall complete, execute and deliver to the Company a selling securityholder notice and
questionnaire in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. At least five (5) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each Holder of any additional information the
Company requires from such Holder, and such Holder shall provide such information to the Company at least three (3) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement. 

(b) Each Holder agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of
the Registration Statement. 
 (c) Upon receipt of written notice from the Company of any event of the kind described in Section 3.2(e)
or Section 3.2(f) or written notice of any Grace Period, each Holder shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until such Holder has received copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus or until such Holder is advised
in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed or that the Grace Period has ended. If so directed by the Company, such Holder shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to return to the Company (at the Company’s
expense) all copies of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession. 

(d) No Holder shall use any free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405) in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities without the
prior written consent of the Company. 
 (e) Each Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the prospectus delivery requirements
of the Securities Act as applicable to it or an exemption therefrom in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement. 

Section 3.5 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 in connection with the sale of any Registrable Securities shall be borne by the Holder(s) selling such Registrable Securities. 

Section 3.6 Transfer of Registration Rights. The rights contained in Section 3.1 hereof to cause the
Company to register the Registrable Securities, and the other rights set forth in this Article III, may be assigned or otherwise conveyed by any Holder to any transferee of the Registrable Securities if the Transfer was permitted under
Article II and the transferee agrees with the Company in writing to be bound by this Agreement.

 ARTICLE IV 

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION 

Section 4.1 Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in the Registration
Statement: 
 (a) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Registrable Securities and such Holder’s officers,
directors, employees, partners, members, agents (including brokers), representatives and Affiliates and each person, if any, who controls such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each, a “Holder
Indemnitee”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities
(or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively, a “Violation”): (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained
in the Registration Statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto or any documents incorporated therein by reference, (ii) an omission or alleged omission to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made (in the case of any prospectus), not misleading, and (iii) a violation or alleged
violation by the Company or its agents of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act applicable to the Company or its agents and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with the
Registration Statement, and the Company will pay to each such Holder Indemnitee, as accrued, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by he, she or it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability,
action or expense; provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this Section 4.1(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or expense 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 for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or expense to the extent that it arises out
of or is based upon a Violation which occurs (A) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by a Holder to the Company, (B) in connection with any failure of such person to deliver or cause to be delivered a
prospectus made available by the Company in a timely manner, (C) in connection with any offers or sales effected by or on behalf of any Holder Indemnitee in violation of Section 3.4(c) of this Agreement, or (D) as a result of offers
or sales effected by or on behalf of any Holder Indemnitee by means of a free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405) that was not authorized in writing by the Company. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any
investigation made by or on behalf of any such Holder Indemnitee, and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Holder, and any termination of this Agreement. 

(b) Each Holder, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each of its officers, directors, employees,
agents, representatives and Affiliates and persons, if any, who control the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each, a “Company Indemnitee”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
expenses to which any of the Company Indemnitees may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are
based upon any (i) untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact regarding such Holder and provided in writing by 

  
 9 













 
such Holder which is contained in the Registration Statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made (in the case of any prospectus), not misleading, in each
case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, preliminary or final prospectus, amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder to the Company, (iii) a violation or alleged violation by a Holder of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act applicable to such
Holder and relating to action or inaction required of such Holder in connection with the registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities or (iv) in connection with any offer or sales effected by or on behalf of such Holder in
violation of Section 3.4(c) of this Agreement, and each Holder will pay, as accrued, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any Company Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 4.1(b), in connection with investigating or defending
any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or expense as a result of a Holder’s untrue statement or omission or violation; provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this Section 4.1(b) shall not apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or expense if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the amount any Holder will be obligated to pay pursuant to this Section 4.1(b) and Section 4.2 will be limited to an amount equal to the gross proceeds actually received by such Holder for the sale of the Registrable
Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement which gives rise to such obligation to indemnify and/or contribute (less the aggregate amount of any damages which such Holder has otherwise been required to pay in respect of such loss, liability,
claim, damage, or expense or any substantially similar loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense arising from the sale of such Registrable Securities). Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or
on behalf of any such Company Indemnitee, and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Holder, and any termination of this Agreement. 

(c) Promptly after receipt by a party to this Agreement entitled to indemnity hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”) under this
Section 4.1 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any party to this Agreement from whom indemnification may be sought
under this Section 4.1 (an “Indemnifying Party”), deliver to the Indemnifying Party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the
Indemnifying Party so desires, jointly with any other Indemnifying Party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party
(together with all other Indemnified Parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the Indemnifying Party,
if (i) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim within seven (7) days after receipt of notice of the claim and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, as the case may be; or
(ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party, representation of such Indemnified Party by such counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing 


  
 10 













 
interests (including the availability of differing legal defenses) between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. It is understood that the
Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for fees or expenses of more than one separate counsel at any time for all such Indemnified Parties. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully with
the Indemnifying Party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the Indemnifying Party and shall furnish to the Indemnifying Party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party which relates to
such action or claim. The Indemnifying Party shall keep the Indemnified Party reasonably apprised of the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No Indemnifying Party will, except with the consent of the
Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of
such action or claim. No Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not unreasonably
withhold, delay or condition its consent. The failure to deliver written notice to the Indemnifying Party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such Indemnifying Party of any liability to the Indemnified
Party under this Section 4.1, except to the extent such failure to give notice has a material adverse effect on the ability of the Indemnifying Party to defend such action. 

Section 4.2 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 4.1 is held by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to therein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense 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 that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. 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 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount any Holder will be obligated to severally
and not jointly contribute pursuant to this Section 4.2, together with Holder’s liability under Section 4.1(b), will be limited to an amount equal to the gross proceeds received by a Holder for the sale of the Registrable Securities
pursuant to the Registration Statement which gives rise to such obligation to contribute and/or indemnify (less the aggregate amount of any damages which such Holder has otherwise been required to pay in respect of such loss, liability, claim,
damage, or expense or any substantially similar loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense arising from the sale of such Registrable Securities). No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution hereunder from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
