 -3-









 
Company has received notice to include in such Shelf Registration. The Company shall include in such Shelf Registration all Registrable Securities requested to be included therein in writing
within 20 days following the date the Company provides written notice to holders of Registrable Securities that it intends to file a registration statement in satisfaction of its obligations under this Section 1(a) (which written
notice to holders of Registrable Securities shall be provided by the Company not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to the date on which the Company intends to file the Shelf Registration with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission);
provided that no holder of Registrable Securities shall be entitled to include Registrable Securities in the Shelf Registration unless it has timely provided to the Company all information reasonably requested by the Company in connection
with the Shelf Registration. The Company shall pay the Registration Expenses in connection with such Shelf Registration. 
 (b)
Underwritten Take-Downs. The holders of Registrable Securities then included in the Shelf Registration Statement may on up to two occasions after the Shelf Registration becomes effective deliver a written notice (an “Underwritten
Take-Down Notice”) to the Company specifying that the sale of some or all of the Registrable Securities subject to the Shelf Registration will be conducted through an underwritten offering (an “Underwritten Take-Down”) and
specifying the amount of Registrable Securities proposed to be included in the Underwritten Take-Down; provided that no Underwritten Take-Down shall be permitted unless such Underwritten Take-Down is reasonably expected to result in aggregate
gross proceeds of at least $60 million. Upon receipt of an Underwritten Take-Down Notice, the Company will provide notice to all other holders of Registrable Securities included in the Shelf Registration offering to include in such Underwritten
Take-Down the number of Registrable Securities requested in writing to be included therein. Each holder of Registrable Securities included in the Shelf Registration will have five business days (or one business day in the case of an overnight or
bought underwritten offering) after the Underwritten Take-Down Notice has been delivered to request in writing the inclusion of such holder’s Registrable Securities in the Underwritten Take- Down. Each holder of Registrable Securities shall
have the right to withdraw such holder’s request for inclusion in such Underwritten-Takedown by giving written notice to the Company of such withdrawal at least one business day prior to the pricing of such Underwritten Take- Down. In the event
of an Underwritten Take-Down, the Company shall have the right to select the managing underwriter or underwriters to administer the offering; provided, however, that such managing underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably
acceptable to the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities proposed to be included in such Underwritten Take-Down. Any Underwritten Take-Down terminated or withdrawn prior to consummation at the request of the holders of a majority of the
Registrable Securities proposed to be included in such Underwritten Taken-Down shall count as one of the two Underwritten Take-Downs permitted under this Section 2(b); provided, however, that up to one Underwritten
Take-Down may be so terminated or withdrawn without being counted as one of the two Underwritten Take-Downs permitted under this Section 2(b). The Company shall pay the Registration Expenses in connection with the two permitted
Underwritten Take-Downs. 
 (c) Priority on Underwritten Take-Down. In connection with an Underwritten Take-Down, if the
managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of Registrable Securities and other securities requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number of Registrable Securities and other securities, if any,
which can be sold therein without adversely affecting the marketability, proposed offering price, timing or 

  
 -4-









 
method of distribution of the offering, the Company shall include in such Underwritten Take-Down prior to the inclusion of any securities which are not Registrable Securities the number of
Registrable Securities requested to be included which, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold, without any such adverse effect, pro rata among the respective holders thereof on the basis of the amount of Registrable Securities owned by
each such holder. Any Persons other than holders of Registrable Securities who participate in an Underwritten Take-Down and who are not entitled to reimbursement of their Registration Expenses must pay their share of the Registration Expenses as
provided in Section 5(b). 
 Section 3. Holdback Agreements in Connection with Underwritten Takedowns.
If requested by the Company in connection with an Underwritten Take-Down, each holder of Registrable Securities participating in the Underwritten Take-Down shall enter into customary lock-up agreements with the managing underwriter(s) of such
Underwritten Take- Down in a form reasonably satisfactory to the holders of a majority of such Registrable Securities and subject to customary exceptions; provided that the holders of Registrable Securities shall not be required to enter into
a lock-up agreement that (i) provides for a lock-up period exceeding 90 days from the date of the final prospectus (the “Holdback Period”) relating to such Underwritten Take-Down (subject to Section 3(a) below) or
(ii) is on terms less favorable to the holders of Registrable Securities than the lock-up agreement entered into by the Sponsors or any other Person in connection with such Underwritten Take-Down. Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees as
follows in connection with any such lock-up agreement: 
 (a) in the event that (i) the Company issues an earnings release
or discloses other material information or a material event relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries occurs during the last 17 days of the Holdback Period or (ii) prior to the expiration of the Holdback Period the Company announces that it
will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning upon the expiration of such period, then to the extent necessary for a managing or co-managing underwriter of a registered offering hereunder to comply with FINRA Rule 2711(f)(4), the
Holdback Period shall be extended until 18 days after the earnings release or disclosure of other material information or the occurrence of the material event, as the case may be (a “Holdback Extension”). 

(b) The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the shares of Common Stock (or other securities) subject to the
restrictions set forth in this Section 3 until the end of such Holdback Period, including any Holdback Extension. 

Section 4. Registration Procedures. 
 (a) In connection with the Shelf Registration, the Company shall: 

(i) in accordance with the Securities Act and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, prepare and
file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement, and all amendments and supplements thereto and related prospectuses, with respect to such Registrable Securities and use reasonable best efforts to cause such registration

for the underwriters a prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with sale of Registrable Securities by an underwriter or dealer) and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all

fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, at the request of any such seller, the Company shall prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable
Securities, such prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided, that at any time, upon written notice to the participating
holders of Registrable Securities and for a period not to exceed 60 days thereafter (the “Suspension Period”), the Company may suspend the use or effectiveness of any registration statement (and the holders of Registrable Securities

than in the case of any investment bank participating as an underwriter in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such investment bank, with respect to each of whom no
confidentiality agreement shall be required pursuant to this clause (x));

each Person who controls such holder or any of such other Persons (within the meaning of the Securities Act) (the “Indemnified Parties”) against all losses, claims, actions, damages, liabilities and expenses (including with respect
to actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, and including reasonable attorney fees and expenses) caused by, resulting from, arising out of, based upon or related to any of the following statements, omissions or violations (each a
“Violation”) by the Company: (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in (A) any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus or Free-Writing Prospectus, or any amendment thereof
or supplement thereto or (B) any application or other document or communication (in this Section 6, collectively called an “application”) executed by or on behalf of the Company or based upon written information
furnished by or on behalf of the Company filed in any jurisdiction in order to qualify any securities covered by such registration under the securities laws thereof, (ii) any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act or any other similar federal or state securities laws or any rule or regulation promulgated
thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance. In addition, the Company will reimburse such Indemnified Party for any legal or
any other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such losses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such losses result from, arise out
of, are based upon, or relate to an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission, made in such registration statement, any such prospectus, preliminary prospectus or Free-Writing Prospectus or any amendment or
supplement thereto, or in any application, in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information prepared and furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Party expressly for use therein. In connection with an underwritten
offering, the Company shall indemnify such underwriters, their officers and directors, and each Person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification
of the Indemnified Parties. 
 (b) By Each Security Holder. In connection with any registration statement or Underwritten
Take-Down in which a holder of Registrable Securities is participating, each such holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such registration statement or
prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives, and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses,
claims, damages, liabilities and expenses resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any


  
 -10-









 
omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or
omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such holder; provided that the obligation to indemnify shall be individual, not joint and several, for each holder and shall be limited to the net amount of
proceeds received by such holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement. 
 (c)
Claim Procedure. Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice
shall impair any Person’s right to indemnification hereunder only to the extent such failure has materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest
between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the
indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled
to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim,
unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. In such instance, the conflicted indemnified parties
shall have a right to retain one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel), chosen by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in the registration if such holders are indemnified parties, at the expense of the
indemnifying party. 
 (d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is held by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to, or is insufficient to hold harmless, an indemnified party or is otherwise unenforceable with respect to any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to herein, then the indemnifying
party shall contribute to the amounts paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or action 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 hand 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 that the maximum
amount of liability in respect of such contribution shall be limited, in the case of each seller of Registrable Securities, to an amount equal to the net proceeds actually received by such seller from the sale of Registrable Securities effected
pursuant to such registration. 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. The
parties hereto agree that it would not be just or equitable if the contribution pursuant to this Section 6(d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account such
equitable considerations. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, 

  
 -11-









 
liabilities or expenses referred to herein shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending
against any action or claim which is the subject hereof. 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 is not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation. 
 (e) Release. No indemnifying party shall, except with the consent of the indemnified
party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or
litigation. 
 (f) Non-exclusive Remedy; Survival. The indemnification and contribution provided for under this Agreement
shall be in addition to any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any indemnified party may have pursuant to law or contract and shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the
indemnified party or any officer, director employee, partner, member, stockholder, representative, agent or controlling Person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of Registrable Securities and the termination or expiration of
this Agreement. 
 Section 7. Participation in Underwritten Registrations and Suspended Distributions. 

(a) Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No Person may participate in any underwritten offering hereunder unless such
Person (i) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Person or Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements (including, without limitation, pursuant to any
over-allotment or “green shoe” option requested by the underwriters; provided that no holder of Registrable Securities shall be required to sell more than the number of Registrable Securities such holder has requested to include) and
(ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements and customary for similar transactions. Each
holder of Registrable Securities participating in an underwritten offering hereunder shall execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company and the lead managing underwriter(s) that are consistent with such
holder’s obligations under Section 3, Section 4 and this Section 7(a) or that are necessary to give further effect thereto. To the extent that any such agreement is entered into pursuant to, and consistent
with, Section 3 and this Section 7(a), the respective rights and obligations created under such agreement shall supersede the respective rights and obligations of the holders, the Company and the underwriters created pursuant to
this Section 7(a). 
 (b) Suspended Distributions. Each Person that is participating in any registration
under this Agreement, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 4(a)(vi), shall immediately discontinue the disposition of its Registrable Securities pursuant to the
registration statement until such Person’s receipt of the copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus as contemplated by Section 4(a)(vi). In the event the Company has given any such notice, the Expiration Date shall be extended

pursuant to this Section 7(b) to and including the date when each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement shall have received the copies of the
supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 4(a)(vi). 
 Section 8. General Provisions.

 (a) Amendments and Waivers. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of this Agreement may be amended,
modified or waived only with the prior written consent of the Company and holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities; provided that no such amendment, modification or waiver that would materially and adversely affect a holder or
group of holders of Registrable Securities in a manner materially different than any other holder or group of holders of Registrable Securities shall be effective against such holder or group of holders of Registrable Securities without the consent
of the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities so affected. The failure or delay of any Person to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed as a waiver of such provisions and shall not affect the right
of such Person thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. A waiver or consent to or of any breach or default by any Person in the performance by that Person of his, her or its obligations under
this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by that Person of the same or any other obligations of that Person under this Agreement. 

(b) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and
valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited, invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or regulation in any jurisdiction, such prohibition, invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement in such jurisdiction or in any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction
as if such prohibited, invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. 
 (c) Entire
Agreement. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement, together with the Joinder Agreement dated the date hereof to the Amended and Restated Stockholder Rights Agreement dated November 14, 2007, contains the complete agreement and
understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and preempts any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties hereto, written or oral, which may have related to the
subject matter hereof in any way. 
 (d) Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement
shall bind and inure to the benefit and be enforceable by the Company and its successors and assigns and the holders of Registrable Securities and their respective successors and permitted assigns (whether so expressed or not). In addition, whether
or not any express assignment has been made, the provisions of this Agreement which are for the benefit of holders of Registrable Securities are also for the benefit of, and enforceable by, any subsequent holder of Registrable Securities.

COURT, AND HEREBY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION THAT ANY SUCH COURT IS AN IMPROPER OR INCONVENIENT FORUM FOR THE RESOLUTION OF SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. 
 (j) Descriptive Headings; Interpretation. The descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement. The use of the word
“including” in this Agreement shall be by way of example rather than by limitation. 
 (k) No Strict
Construction. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any party. 

(l) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signature of more
than one party, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 
 (m) Electronic

and delivered by means of a photographic, photostatic, facsimile or similar reproduction of such signed writing using a facsimile machine or electronic mail shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and shall
be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute
original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No party hereto or to any 

  
 -15-









 
such agreement or instrument shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or electronic mail to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or
communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or electronic mail as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract and each such party forever waives any such defense. 

(n) Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, each of the Company and each
holder of Registrable Securities shall execute and deliver any additional documents and instruments and perform any additional acts that may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and perform the provisions of this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby. 
 (o) Intentionally Omitted. 

(p) Rule 144. In order to make available to the Participating Lenders the benefits of Rule 144 under the Securities Act
(“Rule 144”), the Company shall (i) use reasonable best efforts to make and keep current public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times following the date the Company first
becomes subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) the Exchange Act, (ii) use reasonable best efforts to file all reports and other documents required, if any, to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act and the rules and regulations adopted thereunder at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements, and (iii) deliver, upon request of any holder of Registrable Securities, a written certification to such holder as to
whether the Company has complied with the information and other requirements of Rule 144 and this Section 8(p). On or prior to the date that is 180 days after the date the Company issues the Common Stock in connection with the
Conversion, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to deliver to its transfer agent a legal opinion on behalf of the Company from counsel to the Company to the effect that the Registrable Securities may thereafter be resold pursuant to Rule
144 by holders of Registrable Securities to the extent the conditions of such rule have been satisfied (it being understood that such opinion shall address Rule 144 only and shall not address any lockup agreements or contractual restrictions to
which the Registrable Securities may be subject). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the holders of Registrable Securities acknowledge and agree that such legal opinion may assume that, at the time of any sale of Registrable
Securities, the transferring holder of such Registrable Securities (i) is not an Affiliate of the Company and has not been an Affiliate of the Company for a period of at least 90 days immediately before the sale and (ii) has satisfied the
holding period requirement set forth in Rule 144(d)(i) or 144(d)(ii), as applicable, and such legal opinion may be conditioned upon certification by the transferring holder of such Registrable Securities to the Company and the transfer agent of the
foregoing facts and certification by the Company to the transfer agent at the time of sale that the current public information condition set forth in Rule 144(c) has been met in the event the holding period condition in Rule 144(d)(i) is satisfied
but the holding period condition in Rule 144(d)(ii) has not been satisfied at the time of such sale. Such legal opinion shall remain in effect until such time as the Company or counsel issuing such opinion notifies the transfer agent that Rule 144
is no longer so available. In addition to the foregoing, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to take such other measures from time to time as are necessary or as the holders of Registrable Securities may otherwise reasonably request to
ensure that such Registrable Securities may be resold pursuant to Rule 144 to the extent available (including through the facilities of any securities exchange), that settlements of such sales of Registrable Securities can be made in a timely manner
regular way, and that acquirors of such Registrable Securities acquire such securities within the customary settlement cycle and free of restrictive legends and other restrictions on transfer.

 (q) Remedies. The parties to this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce their rights
under this Agreement specifically to recover damages caused by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights existing in their favor. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that a breach of this Agreement
would cause irreparable harm and money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any such breach and that, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing hereunder, any party shall be entitled to specific performance and/or other injunctive
relief from any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce or prevent violation of the provisions of this Agreement. 
 (r) Effective Time. This Agreement only shall become effective at and as of the Conversion and concurrently with the issuance of the Common Stock to the Participating Lenders upon the Conversion.
Without limiting the foregoing, if the Conversion is not completed and does not occur, then this Agreement shall have no force or effect.
