securities (other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or their then equivalents relating to shares of Common Stock to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of an entity or business or shares of Common Stock issuable in connection with stock

 Section 3. “Demand” Registrations 
  
 Section 3.1 At any time commencing after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, each Holder (a “Demand Holder”) may
make a written request (each a “Demand Request”) for registration under the Securities Act (a “Demand Registration”) of all or part of the Registrable Securities held by such Holder; provided,

Each Demand Request shall specify the number of shares of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by such Demand Holder. 
  
 Section 3.2 Within 15 days after receipt of each Demand Request, the Corporation shall give written notice of such Demand Request to all
non-requesting Holders. Within 30 days after receipt of such notice, the non-requesting Holders shall provide written notice to the Corporation of their intention to have any or all of their Registrable Securities be included in the Demand
Registration. The Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file a Registration Statement registering such of the Registrable Securities as may be requested by any Holders thereof (including the Holder or Holders making the
initial Demand Request) with the Commission not later than 120 days after receipt of such Demand Request (the “Demand Filing Date”) and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to be declared effective by
the Commission as promptly as practicable after such filing. Both the Demand Request and any request to join in such Demand Request shall be considered a single Demand Request. Any inclusion of Registrable Securities owned by a Demand Holder
pursuant to a Demand Request (including a notice of a non-requesting holder to join a Demand Request) shall be deemed to have been effected pursuant to a single Demand Request.

 Demand Requests; provided, however, that if the Corporation meets the eligibility requirements for using Form S-3,
then this limitation shall not apply. In addition, no Holder shall be entitled to deliver a Demand Request within 90 days after the effectiveness of any Registration Statement filed (i) by the Corporation pursuant to an Underwritten Offering by
the Corporation or (ii) on behalf of any Demand Holder or any other holder of demand registration rights. 
  
 Section 3.4 A registration will not count as a Demand Registration until the Registration Statement registering the shares of such Demand
Request has been declared effective by the Commission (unless the Demand Holder withdraws all of its Registrable Securities and the Corporation has performed its obligations hereunder in all material respects, in which case such demand will count as
a Demand Registration). 
  
 Section 3.5 The
Corporation may defer the filing (but not the preparation) of a Registration Statement required by this Section 3 until a date not later than 90 days after the Demand Filing Date if: 
  
 (a) there is (i) material non-public information regarding the
Corporation which the Board reasonably determines not to be in the Corporation’s best interest to disclose and which the Corporation is not otherwise required to disclose or (ii) there is a significant business opportunity (including but
not limited to the acquisition or disposition of assets (other than in the ordinary course of business) or any merger, consolidation, tender offer or other similar transaction) available to the Corporation which the Board reasonably determines not
to be in the Corporation’s best interest to disclose; or 
  
 (b) prior to receiving the Demand Request, the Board had determined to effect an Underwritten Offering and the Corporation had taken substantial steps and is proceeding with reasonable diligence to effect such offering. 
  
 A deferral of the filing of a Registration Statement pursuant to this
Section 3.5 shall be lifted, and the requested Registration Statement shall be filed forthwith, if, (x) in the case of a deferral pursuant to clause (a)(i), the material non-public information is made public by the Corporation, (y) in
the case of a deferral pursuant to clause (a)(ii), the significant business opportunity is disclosed by the Corporation or is terminated, or (z) in the case of a deferral pursuant to clause (b), the proposed registration for the
Corporation’s account is abandoned. In order to defer the filing of a Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 3.5, the Corporation shall promptly (but in any event within 10 days), upon determining to seek such deferral, deliver to
each Demand Holder a certificate signed by an executive officer of the Corporation stating that the Corporation is deferring such filing pursuant to this Section 3.5 and an approximation of the anticipated delay. Within twenty (20) days
after receiving such certificate, the Demand Request may be withdrawn by those Persons representing a majority of the Registrable Securities being registered on the Registration Statement filed pursuant to such Demand Request upon providing written
notice to the Corporation; if withdrawn, the Demand Request shall be deemed not to have been made for purposes of this Annex A. 
  
 Section 3.6 If, in connection with any offering described in Section 3.1 of this Annex A, the managing underwriter shall
impose a limitation on the number of shares of Common Stock 
  

 A-4 








 which may be included in the Registration Statement because in its judgment, such limitation is necessary to effect an
orderly public distribution, then, in the discretion of such managing underwriter, the Corporation shall include in such Registration Statement only such portion of the Registrable Securities with respect to which such Holders have requested
inclusion pursuant hereto as such limitation permits. No shares of Registrable Securities shall be excluded from the Registration Statement unless all other securities of the Corporation (including any securities proposed to be registered by the
Corporation for its own account) have been so excluded. Any exclusion of Registrable Securities shall be made pro rata among such Holders seeking to include such shares, in proportion to the number of such shares owned by such Holders. 

 
 Section 4. Registration Procedures 
  
 Section 4.1. Whenever any Holder has requested that any
Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to this Annex A, the Corporation will use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities, and in furtherance thereof the Corporation shall:

 (c) (i) furnish to the Holders of Registrable Securities to be sold, their counsel and any managing underwriters, copies of all such documents

 (vii) of the receipt by the Corporation of any notification with respect to
the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such purpose; and 
  
 (viii) of the occurrence of any event that makes any statement made in the
Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to the Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that,
in the case of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not contain any 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; 
  
 (e) use its commercially reasonable efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if issued, obtain the withdrawal of (i) any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or (ii) any suspension

 A-6 








 post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement such information as the Corporation reasonably agrees should be
included therein and (ii) make all required filings of such Prospectus supplement or such post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after the Corporation has received notification of the matters to be incorporated in such Prospectus
supplement or post-effective amendment; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to take any action pursuant to this clause (f) that would, in the opinion of counsel for the Corporation, violate applicable law or be
materially detrimental to the business prospects of the Corporation; 
  
 (g) furnish to each Holder of Registrable Securities to be sold, their counsel and any managing underwriters, without charge, at least one conformed copy of each Registration Statement and each amendment thereto, including financial
statements and schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and all exhibits to the extent requested by such Person (including those previously furnished or incorporated by reference) promptly after the

Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto;

underwriter requests in writing, to keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective for at least 180 days and to do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such
jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or to

 (j) cooperate with the selling Holders and any managing underwriters to

Section 4(d)(viii) of this Annex A, as promptly as possible, prepare a supplement or amendment, including a post-effective amendment, to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any 
  

 A-7 








 document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and file any other required document so that, as
thereafter delivered, neither the Registration Statement nor such Prospectus will contain an 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 under which they were made, not misleading;

distribution of such Registrable Securities as is required by law to be disclosed in the Registration Statement, and the Corporation may exclude from such registration the Registrable Securities of any such Holder who unreasonably fails to furnish

proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement, such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus. In no event shall the liability
of any selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. 
  
 Section 8.3 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. 

 
 (a) If any Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person
entitled to indemnity hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party promptly shall notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing, and the
Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof; provided, that the
failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Annex A, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have proximately and materially adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party. 
  
 (b) An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in
any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and
expenses; or (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3) the named parties to any
such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were
to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying
Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written
consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party,
unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.

 (c) All fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent
incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten (10) Business Days of written notice thereof to the
Indemnifying Party (regardless of whether it is ultimately determined that an Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder; provided, that the Indemnifying Party may require such Indemnified Party to undertake to reimburse
all such fees and expenses to the extent it is finally judicially determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder). 
  
 Section 8.4 Contribution. 
  
 (a) If a claim for indemnification under Section 8.1 or 8.2 is unavailable to an Indemnified Party because of a failure or refusal of a Governmental
Authority to enforce such indemnification in accordance with its terms (by reason of public policy or otherwise), then each 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, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as
well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access
to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth herein, any reasonable
attorneys’ or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was
available to such party in accordance with its terms. In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities
giving rise to an indemnification or contribution obligation hereunder. 
  
 (b) The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable
considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, no Holder shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the proceeds actually
received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

 (c) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 8 are in addition to any
liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties. 
  
 Section 8.5 Rule 144. Following the IPO, the Corporation covenants that: 
  
 (a) it will file the reports required to be filed by the Corporation under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, so to enable the Holders to sell
Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; 
  
 (b) it shall cooperate with any Holder in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition by such Holder of any Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; 
  
 (c) it will take such action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the
extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell its Common Stock without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, including providing any
legal opinions; and 
  
 (d) upon the request of any Holder, it
shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements. 
  
 Section 9. Term of Registration Rights. 
  
 The rights of Holders with respect to the registration rights granted pursuant to this Annex A shall remain in effect, subject to the terms hereof,
so long as there are Registrable Securities or securities which are convertible or exchangeable for Registrable Securities issued and outstanding.
