(e) Investment Representations. 

(i) Holder qualifies as an “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) and is acquiring the Arrowhead Warrant and the shares underlying the Arrowhead Warrant hereunder for its own account and with no intention of distributing or selling the Arrowhead
Warrant or the shares underlying the Arrowhead Warrant except pursuant to a registration or an available exemption under applicable law. Holder understands that neither Arrowhead Warrant or the shares of common stock underlying the Arrowhead Warrant
have not been (and are not being) registered under the Securities Act by reason of their contemplated issuance in transaction(s) exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2)
thereof (including the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder), and that the reliance of the Corporation on such exemption from registration is predicated in part on the representations and warranties of Holder hereunder. 

(ii) Holder agrees that it will not sell or otherwise dispose of the Arrowhead Warrant or any of the shares underlying the
Arrowhead Warrant unless such sale or other disposition has been registered or is exempt from registration under the Securities Act and has been registered or qualified or is exempt from registration or qualification under applicable securities laws
of any State. 
 (iii) Holder understands that a restrictive legend consistent with the foregoing set forth in
Section 10(a) of this Agreement has been or will be placed on the Arrowhead Warrant and any certificates evidencing the shares underlying the Arrowhead Warrant to be issued to it hereunder, and related stop transfer instructions will be noted

 (iv) Holder represents that it is not an Affiliate (as defined herein) of
the Corporation and will covenant and agree that if it becomes an Affiliate, it will promptly provide notice to the Corporation of such status and comply with insider trading laws and policies and the applicable “control securities”
provisions of Rule 144 in addition to any other obligations set forth in this Agreement. 
 (v) Holder has such
knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risk of an investment in the Arrowhead Warrant and the shares underlying the Arrowhead Warrant. Holder acknowledges that it has had access to
all information concerning the Corporation and Calando and their respective businesses, assets, liabilities, financial statements, and obligations which have been requested and has been provided the opportunity to ask questions of and receive
answers from the Corporation and/or Calando to fully and effectively evaluate the Exchange and the transactions contemplated herein. Holder understands that a new holding period for purposes of Rule 144 under the Securities Act will be triggered
with respect to the Arrowhead Warrant and the shares underlying the Warrant, and such Holder is able to bear the economic risk of loss of the investment in such securities and is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.

Agreement.

covenants and agreements made by the Corporation to the Holder in this Agreement. The Corporation hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Holder and its officers, principals, Affiliates, trustees, agents and representatives, as
applicable, (each, a “Holder Indemnified Party”), against any and all Losses which any Holder Indemnified Party may suffer, sustain or incur by reason of or in connection with or arising under (i) any inaccuracy or breach of
representation or warranty of the Corporation contained in this Agreement; or (ii) the breach of this Agreement or any covenant or agreement made by the Corporation in this Agreement. This right to indemnification is in addition to any other
