 2.5 Legends. The
certificates representing Shares shall bear legends to the following effect: 
 “TRANSFER OF SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS
CERTIFICATE IS RESTRICTED BY A REGISTRATION RIGHTS AND STOCKHOLDERS’ AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF NOVEMBER 30, 2010, WHICH CONTAINS ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS AFFECTING THE RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE HOLDER OF SUCH SHARES. A COPY OF THE STOCKHOLDERS’
AGREEMENT IS ON FILE AT THE OFFICE OF THE CORPORATION.” 
 “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT
BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES 

  
 15 









 
ACT OF 1933 OR ANY STATE OR FOREIGN SECURITIES LAW. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, UNLESS (1) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IS IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT
THERETO OR (2) AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM IS AVAILABLE AND, IF REQUESTED BY THE CORPORATION, THE HOLDER DELIVERS TO THE CORPORATION AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION TO SUCH EFFECT OR (3) SOLD PURSUANT TO
RULE 144 UNDER SUCH ACT.” 
 Any certificate issued upon a Transfer thereof or in exchange therefor shall, except as otherwise
required to give effect to transactions permitted or required by this Agreement, bear substantially similar legends. The first legend referenced above shall be removed from certificates representing Shares upon termination of the applicability of
Section 2.1 and Section 2.3 thereto. The second legend referenced above shall be removed from certificates representing Shares when such Shares cease to be Restricted Shares. For purposes of the foregoing, “Restricted
Shares” means all Shares other than Shares (i) which have been sold in a Public Offering, (ii) with respect to which a sale has been made in reliance on and in accordance with Rule 144 (or any successor provision) under the

(c) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, unless their resale is covered by the Seadrift Class A/B Shelf Registration Statement,
the Company shall file with the Commission, no later than five (5) days after the Effective Time under the CG Merger Agreement, a registration statement on Form S-3ASR (or Form S-3 or any other form for which the Company then qualifies)

supplements thereto, and including any documents incorporated by reference therein, the “CG Class A/B Shelf Registration Statement”) and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the CG Class A/B Shelf Registration Statement to
be declared effective under the Securities Act immediately upon the filing thereof (in the case of a registration statement on Form S-3ASR) or within thirty (30) days after filing (in the case of a registration statement on any other form), and
keep the CG Class A/B Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented and amended as necessary to ensure that it is available for resales of Registrable Securities by each such Holder and ensure that it conforms with the
requirements of this Agreement and the policies, rules and regulations of the Commission as announced from time to time, for a period of the lesser of six (6) months after such Effective Time or such time as all of such Registrable Securities
have been sold under the CG Class A/B Registration Statement. In connection with sales under the CG Class A/B Shelf Registration Statement (or, if covered thereby, the Seadrift Class A/B Shelf Registration Statement):

 3.2 Demand Registration. 

(a) If at any time and from time to time after sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, Holders holding at
least a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding (the “Majority Holders”), make a written demand for a Public Offering in order to sell all or part of the Majority Holders’ Registrable Securities then outstanding
(a “Demand”), the Company shall (i) within ten (10) days after the date such Demand is given, give notice thereof (the “Demand Notice”) to all Holders other than the Majority Holders and (ii) use its
reasonable best efforts to register on Form S-3ASR (or Form S-3 or any other form for which the Company then qualifies), as soon as practicable (but in any event within seventy five (75) days after the Demand is given by the Majority
Holders; provided, that such seventy five (75) day period may be extended to the extent necessary to comply with any financial statement filing requirements resulting from an acquisition by the Company), the Registrable Securities requested to
be included in such registration by the Majority Holders and any additional Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by any other Holder, as specified by notice given by each such Holder to the Company within twenty
(20) days of the date the Demand Notice is given to such Holder, and in each case, subject to the limitations of Section 3.2(b). If so specified in the notice of Demand from the Majority Holders, such Public Offering shall be effected on a
firm commitment underwritten basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to (A) effect a Public Offering with respect to fewer than six million (6,000,000) Shares (as adjusted for any stock split, stock
dividend, combination, or other recapitalization or reclassification effected after the date hereof), unless the value of the Shares that is proposed to be sold in such Public Offering is greater than fifty million dollars ($50,000,000) (using the
closing price of the Common Stock on the last trading day prior to the date of the Demand), (B) effect more than four (4) Public Offerings under this Section 3.2(a) in total (of which no more than two (2) of such Public Offerings
may be Underwritten Offerings), or (C) effect more than one (1) Public Offering within any consecutive twelve (12) month period. If the Company undertakes a road show with respect to an Underwritten Offering or a registration for an
Underwritten Offering pursuant to this Section 3.2(a) becomes effective or is terminated or abandoned at the request of the selling Holders (for any reason other than (i) failure of the Company to pursue such registration as required
hereby or (ii) material adverse developments relating to the Company that make it inadvisable, in the reasonable opinion of the selling Holders, to proceed therewith) after the Registration Statement related thereto has been filed with the
Commission, the Company’s obligation to comply with such a Demand shall be deemed to have been satisfied, regardless of whether any related offer or sale is completed. The Company and each Holder participating in any Underwritten Offering shall
enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriters selected for such underwriting (subject to Section 3.4(a)(vi)). The Underwriters in any Underwritten Offering pursuant to a Demand for an Underwritten Offering shall
be mutually determined by the Company 

  
 18 









 
and the Majority Holders. 
 (b) In the event that the managing
Underwriters of any Underwritten Offering contemplated by Section 3.2(a) inform the Company in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that have been requested to be sold in such Underwritten Offering exceeds the
maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar
amount or maximum number of shares, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Shares”), then the Company shall include in such offering: (i) first, the Registrable Securities as to which the Underwritten Offering has been requested
by the Majority Holders that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares, allocated Pro Rata among the Majority Holders; (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause
(i), the Registrable Securities requested to be sold in such Underwritten Offering by the Holders other than the Majority Holders that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares, allocated Pro Rata among the Holders other than the
Majority Holders participating in such Underwritten Offering; and (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), equity securities proposed to be sold by the
Company for its own account and the equity securities of any other stockholder who has the right and who has requested to have equity securities included in such Underwritten Offering that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.

 (c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled to postpone for a reasonable
period of time (not to exceed ninety (90) days) the filing or effectiveness of, or suspend for a reasonable period of time (not to exceed ninety (90) days) the rights of the selling Holders to make offers or sales pursuant to, any
Registration Statement otherwise required to be prepared, filed and made and kept effective by it hereunder if there has been a determination by the Board that filing, amending or supplementing, or making offers or sales pursuant to, such
Registration Statement would have a material adverse effect on (i) any proposal or plan by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to engage in any financing, acquisition, divestiture, joint venture, merger, consolidation, tender offer or other
significant transaction or (ii) the pursuit or defense of any material third party Claim, and the Company advises the selling Holders of such postponement or suspension; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to so postpone
only one (1) time during any period of twelve (12) consecutive months. If so advised, the selling Holders shall comply therewith and, if in connection with such advice, the selling Holders receive material non-public information from the
Company, they shall keep such information confidential and shall not effect (or allow others for whom they could reasonably be expected to have responsibility to effect) transactions in securities of the Company until such information becomes public
or, if sooner, the expiration of such ninety (90) day period. The Company shall extend the period during which such registration shall be kept effective as provided in Section 3.2(a) by a number of days equal to the number of days in the
period commencing on and including the date of suspension of the rights of the selling Holders to make sales pursuant to such registration and ending on the date sales can recommence. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (i) the Company shall not be obligated to effect any registration
pursuant to Section 3.2(a) during the period starting with the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on the date that is ninety (90) days after the effective
date of, any other registration 

  
 19 









 
statement filed or to be filed by the Company (other than a registration of securities on, or which could otherwise be done in its entirety on, Form S-8 or any successor form of limited
purpose); provided, that the Company uses reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and that the Company may only exercise its rights under this Section 3.2(d) once in any twelve (12) month period and
(ii) unless participating in such other registration, the Principal Holders, NM and DM and their Transferees who hold Registrable Securities shall agree to be bound by and subject to any “market stand off,” “lockup” or
similar arrangement which may be requested by the underwriters of any securities of the Company and which the Company’s officers and directors, and stockholders entitled to registration rights that hold (directly or indirectly) at least 1% of
the Company’s outstanding Common Stock (a “Significant Stockholder”), are also so subject; provided, that in no event shall any such “market stand off,” “lockup” or similar arrangement commence earlier than
seven days prior to, or extend later than ninety (90) days following, the effective date of such registration; and provided, further, that no director, officer or Significant Stockholder shall be released from any such “market stand
off,” “lockup” or similar arrangement unless the Principal Holders, NM and DM and their transferees are also simultaneously released therefrom to the same extent. 

3.3 Piggy-Back Offerings. 
 (a) Subject to the other terms and conditions hereof (including the restrictions in Section 2.4(b)), at any time and from time to time after the Effective Time under the Seadrift Merger Agreement, if
the Company proposes to register shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act in connection with a Public Offering (excluding registrations in connection with a compensation arrangement, employee benefit plan or equity incentive plan of any kind
(including resale registrations of securities issued thereunder or in connection therewith), an exchange or tender offer of any kind or an acquisition or divestiture of any kind by the Company or its Subsidiaries of a business, product line, company
or assets) for sale for its own account or for the account of any other stockholder of the Company, each such time it will give written notice to each Holder of Registrable Securities of its intention to do so at least 20 days prior to the
anticipated filing date of the related registration statement. The Company shall include in such registration all of the Registrable Securities held by each Holder from whom the Company has received a written request for inclusion therein (subject
to the limitations contained in Section 2.4(b), to the extent applicable to such Holders) within ten (10) days after the receipt by such Holders of such written notice (the “Piggy-Back Shares”), to the extent required to
permit the disposition of the Piggy-Back Shares to the public. Each such request by a Holder shall specify the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be registered. The failure of any Holder to respond within such ten (10) day period
shall be deemed to be a waiver of such Holder’s rights under this Section 3.3(a) with respect to such registration. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to include in such Public Offering all Registrable Securities which the
Company has been so requested to include by the Holders, subject to Section 3.3(b); provided, that, if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to effect such a Public Offering and prior to the effective date of such
registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to proceed with such Public Offering or to delay such Public Offering, the Company shall give written notice of such determination to each Holder, and, thereupon: (i) in the case of a
determination not to proceed, shall not be obligated to include any of the Registrable Securities in, and proceed with, such Public Offering, and (ii) in the case of a determination to delay such Public Offering, shall delay including any of
the Registrable Securities for the same period as the delay in proceeding with such Public Offering. 

  
 20 









 (b) In the event that the Public Offering contemplated by Section 3.3(a) is an
Underwritten Offering and the managing Underwriters of such Underwritten Offering inform the Company in writing that the dollar amount or number of Shares that have been requested to be sold in such Underwritten Offering exceeds the Maximum Number
of Shares, then the Company shall include in such offering: 
 (i) in the event such Underwritten Offering was
proposed by the Company to sell its equity securities for its own account: (A) first, equity securities proposed to be sold by the Company for its own account, (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been
reached under the foregoing clause (A), Piggy-Back Shares which the Holders have requested be included in such Underwritten Offering allocated Pro Rata among such Holders, and (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not
been reached under the foregoing clause (B), the equity securities of any other stockholder who has the right and who has requested to have equity securities included in such Underwritten Offering that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum
Number of Shares, allocated Pro Rata among each such other participating stockholder; and 
 (ii) in the event
such Underwritten Offering was proposed by another stockholder who has the right to request an Underwritten Offering: (A) first, equity securities of such stockholder, (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not
been reached under the foregoing clause (A), equity securities proposed to be sold by the Company for its own account, (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B),
Piggy-Back Shares which the Holders have requested be included in such Underwritten Offering that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares, allocated Pro Rata among such Holders, and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum
Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (C), the equity securities of any other stockholder who has the right and who has requested to have equity securities included in such Underwritten Offering that can be sold without
exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares, allocated Pro Rata among each such other participating stockholder. 
 Each Holder with Registrable
Securities to be distributed by such Underwriters shall, subject to Section 3.4(a)(vi), be a party to the underwriting agreement between the Company and such Underwriters and any necessary or appropriate custody agreements, shall execute
appropriate powers of attorney, and shall take all such actions as are reasonably requested by the managing Underwriters in order to expedite or facilitate the registration or the disposition of its Company Stock. 

3.4 Registration Procedures. 
 (a) In connection with the registration of Company Stock pursuant to Section 3, the Company shall (subject to Sections 3.2(b) and 3.3(b)) use its reasonable best efforts to effect the
registration and sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof as expeditiously as practicable, and in connection therewith: 

(i) The Company shall prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such Registrable

however, that such one hundred twenty (120) day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period the Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in such registration refrains, at the request of an Underwriter, from selling
any securities included in such registration. 
 (ii) The Company shall, prior to filing a Registration Statement
or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish without charge to each Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in such registration, copies of such Registration Statement as proposed to be filed, each amendment and supplement
to such Registration Statement (in each case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as
are included in such registration as legal counsel for such Holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder. 

(iii) After the filing of a Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly, and in no event more than two
(2) business days after such filing, notify each Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration Statement of such filing, and shall further notify each such Holder promptly in writing in all events within two
(2) business days of the occurrence of any of the following: (A) when such Registration Statement becomes effective; (B) when any post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement becomes effective; (C) the issuance or
threatened issuance by the Commission of any stop order (and the Company shall take all actions required to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if entered); and (D) any request by the Commission for (1) any amendment or
supplement to such Registration Statement or any prospectus relating thereto or (2) additional information of the occurrence of an event requiring the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered
to the purchasers of the securities covered by such Registration Statement, such 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 not misleading. The Company shall promptly make available to each Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration Statement any such supplement or amendment. 

(iv) Before filing with the Commission a Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, the
Company shall furnish to each Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration Statement and to the legal counsel for any such Holders, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed sufficiently in advance of filing to
provide such Holder and their legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review such documents and comment thereon. 
 (v) The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (A) register or qualify the Registrable Securities under such securities or “blue sky” Laws of such jurisdictions (domestic or
foreign) as the Holders whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration Statement (in light of the intended plan of distribution) may reasonably request and (B) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities
covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other Governmental 

  
 22 









 
Entity as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company and do any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable such Holders to consummate
the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this
paragraph or subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or take any action which would subject it to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. 

(vi) The Company shall enter into customary agreements (including, if applicable, an underwriting agreement in customary
form) and take such other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities. No Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration Statement shall be required to
make any representations or warranties in the underwriting agreement except, if applicable, with respect to such Holder’s organization, good standing, authority, title to such Holder’s Common Stock, lack of conflict of such sale with such
Holder’s material agreements and organizational documents, with respect to written information relating to such Holder that it has furnished in writing expressly for inclusion in such Registration Statement, and any other customary
representations or warranties requested by the Underwriter(s) selected for such underwriting. 
 (vii) The
principal executive officer of the Company, the principal financial officer of the Company, the principal accounting officer of the Company and other appropriate officers and members of the management of the Company shall cooperate reasonably in any
offering of Registrable Securities hereunder, which cooperation shall include (A) the preparation of the Registration Statement with respect to such offering and all other offering materials and related documents, (B) participation in
meetings with Underwriter(s), prospective purchasers, attorneys, accountants and the Holders whose Registrable Securities are included in such registration, including participation in customary road shows, investor conferences and other similar
presentations and (C) facilitating the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold and not bearing any restricted legends. 

(viii) The Company shall make reasonably available for inspection by the Holders whose Registrable Securities are included
in such Registration Statement, any Underwriter(s) participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other professional retained by such Holders or any Underwriter, all information reasonably
requested by any Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration Statement or any Underwriter, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information so requested by any of them in connection
with such Registration Statement. 
 (ix) The Company shall furnish to each Holder whose Registrable Securities
are included in any Registration Statement a signed counterpart, addressed to such Holder, of (A) any opinion of counsel to the Company delivered to any Underwriter and (B) any comfort letter from the Company’s independent registered
public accountants delivered to any Underwriter, to the extent permitted by the professional standards governing the accounting profession at the time. 

  
 23 









 (x) The Company shall comply with all applicable rules and regulations of
the Commission and the Securities Act, and make available to its stockholders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement covering a period of twelve (12) months, beginning as soon as practicable (and in any event within three
(3) months after the effective date of the Registration Statement), which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder. 

(xi) The Company shall use its best efforts to cause all Holders’ Registrable Securities included in any registration
to be listed (or continue to be listed) on such exchanges or otherwise designated for trading in the same manner as similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or designated. 

(xii) If any such Registration Statement or comparable filing refers to any Holder by name and if such Holder, in its sole
and exclusive judgment, is or might be deemed to be an underwriter or a controlling Person of the Company, such Holder shall have the right to require (A) the insertion therein of language, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such
Holder and presented to the Company in writing, to the effect that the holding by such Holder of such shares of Company Stock is not to be construed as a recommendation by such Holder of the investment quality of the Company’s securities
covered thereby, and that such holding does not imply that such Holder shall assist in meeting any future financial requirements of the Company, or (B) in the event that such reference to such Holder by name or otherwise is not required by the
Securities Act or any similar federal or state statute then in force, the deletion of the reference to such Holder. 
 (b) The
Company shall bear all costs and expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to Section 3, and all expenses incurred in performing or complying with its other obligations under this Agreement, whether or not the Registration
Statement becomes effective, including: (i) all registration and filing fees; (ii) fees and expenses of compliance with securities or “blue sky” Laws (including fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with blue sky
qualifications of the Registrable Securities); (iii) printing expenses; (iv) the Company’s internal expenses (including all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees); (v) the fees and expenses incurred in connection
with the listing of the Registrable Securities as required by Section 3.4(a)(xi); (vi) Financial Industry Regulatory Authority fees; (vii) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and fees and expenses for independent
registered public accountants retained by the Company (including the expenses or costs associated with the delivery of any opinions or comfort letters requested pursuant to Section 3.4(a)(ix); (g) the fees and expenses of any special
experts retained by the Company in connection with such registration; (viii) the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel (one firm) selected by Majority Holders; and (ix) fees and expenses incurred by the Company or by any
Underwriter(s) if and to the extent that any Holder would otherwise be responsible therefor in connection with the marketing and disposition of Registrable Securities in an Underwritten Offering in the manner reasonably requested by the Underwriters
for such Underwritten Offering, including through the use of customary road shows, investor conferences and other similar presentations in accordance with Section 3.4(a)(vii). All Selling Expenses relating to Registrable Securities registered
pursuant to Section 3 shall be borne and paid by the Holder’s Pro Rata on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities registered on their behalf. 

  
 24 









 (c) Each Holder shall provide such information as may reasonably be requested by the
Company, or the managing Underwriter, if any, in connection with the preparation of any Registration Statement pursuant to Section 3, including amendments and supplements thereto, in order to effect the registration of any Registrable
Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 3 and in connection with the Company’s obligation to comply with federal and applicable state securities Laws. At least ten (10) business days prior to the first anticipated
filing date of any such Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each Holder of the information the Company requires from such Holder and each such Holder shall provide such information to the Company at least four (4) business days
prior to such first anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement. The Company shall have the right to exclude any Holder that does not comply with the Company’s request for information pursuant to this Section 3.4(c) from the
requisite Registration Statement and to preclude such Holder from selling Registrable Securities thereunder. 
 3.5 Rule
144. So long as the Company is subject to the requirements of Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company covenants that it will take reasonable efforts to file on a timely basis any reports required to be filed by it under the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act (or, if the Company is subject to the requirements of Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act but is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Holder of Registrable Securities,
make publicly available such information) and it will take such further action so as to enable Holders to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (a) Rule
144, or (b) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the Commission. Upon the request of any Holder, the Company will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether the Company has complied with Rule 144. 

3.6 Indemnification. 
 (a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each selling Holder, each “affiliate” (for purposes of this Section 3.6, within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) of
such Holder, each of their respective directors, officers, employees and general partners (and the directors, officers, employees and general partners thereof) and each “controlling person” (for purposes of this Section 3.6, within
the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) thereof (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Seller Indemnified Party may
become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, whether or not such Seller Indemnified Party is a party
thereto) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement, any preliminary, final or summary prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto, or any
document incorporated therein by reference, prepared, filed, published, delivered or furnished by the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 3 or (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and will reimburse such Seller Indemnified Party for any and all legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or proceeding; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any Seller Indemnified Party in any such case
to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action, proceeding or expense (A) arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact or omission or alleged omission to state therein
a 

  
 25 









 
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, made in any such
registration statement, in any such preliminary, final or summary prospectus, in any such amendment or supplement, or in any such document incorporated by reference, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information with respect to such
Seller Indemnified Party furnished to the Company by such Seller Indemnified Party expressly for use in the preparation thereof or (B) relates to any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or final prospectus as amended or supplemented, as
the case may be, and results from the fact that such Seller Indemnified Party sold such securities to a person to whom there was not sent or given, at or prior to the written confirmation of such sale, a copy of the final prospectus or of the final
prospectus as then amended or supplemented, whichever is most recent, if the Company has previously timely furnished a reasonable number of copies thereof to such Seller Indemnified Party or the underwriters, brokers or dealers through whom such
sale was made. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Seller Indemnified Party and shall survive the Transfer of Shares by a Holder. 

(b) Each selling Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each other selling Person under such Registration Statement,
each affiliate of the Company and such other selling Person, each of their respective directors, officers, employees and general partners (and the directors, officers, employees and general partners thereof) and each controlling person thereof
(collectively, the “Company Indemnified Parties”) against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Company Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act,
common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, whether or not such Company Indemnified Party is a party thereto) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission described in clause (A) of Section 3.6(a) or any circumstance described in clause (B) of Section 3.6(a). Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of
any investigation made by or on behalf of such Company Indemnified Party and shall survive the Transfer of Shares by a Holder. The liability of any Holder for any indemnification under this Section 3.6(b) shall not exceed an amount equal to the
net proceeds received by such Holder in connection with the sale of the relevant Registrable Securities. 
 (c) Promptly after
receipt by an Indemnified Party of written notice of the commencement of any Claim or Proceeding with respect to which a claim for indemnification may be made pursuant to this Section 3.6, such Indemnified Party will give written notice to the
indemnifying Person thereof; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the indemnifying Person of its obligations under Section 3.6(a) or 3.6(b), except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually
prejudiced by such failure. In case any Proceeding is brought against an Indemnified Party, unless in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and indemnifying Person may exist in respect
of the claim to which such Proceeding relates and separate counsel is not employed as described below, the indemnifying Person will be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense thereof, jointly with any other indemnifying Person, to the
extent that it may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and after notice from the indemnifying Person to such Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying Person will not be
liable to such Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of 

  
 26 









 
investigation. If, in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, having common counsel would result in a conflict of interest between the interests of such Indemnified Party and the
indemnifying Person, then such Indemnified Party may employ separate counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnifying Person to represent or defend such Indemnified Party in such Proceeding, it being understood, however, that the indemnifying
Person shall not be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one (1) separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such Indemnified Parties (and not more than one (1) separate firm of local counsel at any time for all such
Indemnified Parties) in such Proceeding. No indemnifying Person will consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified
Parties of a release from all liability in respect of such Claim or Proceeding. An indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding or Claim effected without its prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld. 
 (d) If recovery is not available under the indemnification provisions of this Section 3.6 for any reason other
than as expressly specified herein, the Persons entitled to indemnification by the terms hereof shall be entitled to contribution as to all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses specified in such indemnification provisions except to the
extent that contribution is not permitted under Section 11(f) of the Securities Act. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective Persons are entitled, there shall be considered the relative benefits received by each Person
from the sale of the relevant securities (taking into account the portion of the proceeds realized by each), their relative fault in connection with the statements, omissions or circumstances which resulted in losses, claims, damages, expenses or
liabilities, including their knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the Claim was asserted and the opportunity to correct and prevent any misstatement, omission or circumstance, and any other equitable
considerations appropriate under the circumstances. The liability of any Holder for any contribution under this Section 3.6(d) shall not exceed an amount equal to the net proceeds received by such Holder in connection with the sale of the
relevant Registrable Securities. 
 (e) The obligations of the parties under this Section 3.6 shall be in addition to any
liability which any party may otherwise have to any other party. If the underwriting agreement relating to any Public Offering covered by this Section 3 provides for indemnification and contribution of the type described in this
Section 3.6, then such provisions shall supersede and replace this Section 3.6 (other than this Section 3.6(e)) insofar as it specifically provides for indemnification or contribution between the same Persons with respect to such
Public Offering. An underwriting agreement which primarily provides for indemnification and contribution by selling securityholders and the Company, on the one hand, and underwriters, on the other hand (but not between the Company, on the one hand,
and securityholders, on the other hand), shall not supersede or replace this Section 3.6. 
 3.7 Termination of
Registration Rights. The provisions of Section 3 (other than Section 3.6) shall terminate on the earlier of (a) the date that the Holders no longer Beneficially own any Registrable Securities and (b) the consummation of a
Change in Control unless the Company (or any successor thereof as a result of the Change in Control) is a reporting Company under the Exchange Act. 

  
 27 









 3.8 Amendment of Registration Rights. The provisions of this Section 3 may be
amended, modified or waived by an instrument in writing executed by the Company and the Majority Holders, and any such amendment, modification or waiver shall bind all Holders. 
 Section 4. Board Rights 
 4.1 Board Nomination Right.

 (a) Promptly after the occurrence of the Effective Time under both the Seadrift Merger Agreement and the CG Merger Agreement,
upon written request of the Nominators to the Company, the Company shall, if the Principal Holders, NM and DM, and their Related Parties, hold and own, of record and Beneficially, in the aggregate at least 12,000,000 Shares (as adjusted for any
stock split, stock dividend, combination, or other recapitalization or reclassification effected after the date hereof) at the time of such request, take or cause to be taken any and all such actions so that the size of the Board is increased by one
(1) director and NM is elected by the Board as a member of the Board. If NM (or a then prior designee described below in this sentence) ceases to be a member of the Board, and as long as the Principal Holders, NM and DM, and their Related
Parties, shall have continuously held and owned, of record and Beneficially, in the aggregate at least 12,000,000 Shares (as adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, combination, or other recapitalization or reclassification effected after the
date hereof) from the date of the first election of a Board Nominee through the date of such request, the Nominators shall have the right, by written request of the Nominators to the Company, to nominate another designee reasonably acceptable to the
Board to become a member of the Board; provided, that no such designee need be elected to the Board unless at least three (3) years have past since NM (or such then prior designee) was elected to the Board; provided, further, that
notwithstanding that three (3) years shall not have past, if NM (or such then prior designee) has ceased to be a member of the Board due to death, disability or retirement at or after the age of 74, then the Nominators shall have the right to
nominate a replacement designee reasonably acceptable to the Board to become a member of the Board (NM or any such designee, the “Board Nominee”). If such a nomination is made, the Company shall take or cause to be taken any and all
such actions so that such designee is elected by the Board as a member of the Board. 
 (b) If the Board Nominee shall have been
elected as a member of the Board pursuant to Section 4.1(a), and as long as the Principal Holders, NM and DM, and their Related Parties, shall have continuously held and owned, of record and Beneficially, in the aggregate at least 12,000,000
Shares (as adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, combination, or other recapitalization or reclassification effected after the date hereof) from the date of such election through the December 31 immediately preceding each meeting of
stockholders of the Company at which directors are to be re-elected, then the Company shall take or cause to be taken any and all such actions (including nominating for election, recommending for election, soliciting proxies (and, if applicable
written consents) for election) so that the Board Nominee is nominated and recommended for re-election to the Board at each such meeting, in the same manner and to the same extent that such action is taken in respect of the other nominees of the
Board. Such right shall terminate immediately at such time as the Principal Holders, NM and DM, and their Related Parties, cease for any reason to hold and own, of record and Beneficially, in the aggregate at least 12,000,000 Shares (as adjusted for
any stock split, stock dividend, combination, or other recapitalization or reclassification effected after the date hereof). Upon and at any time following termination of such right, the Company may in its sole discretion cease taking any and all
such 

  
 28 









 
actions, the Board may in its sole discretion withdraw any nomination or recommendation for re-election previously made and the Board Nominee may resign from the Board. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (i) the Board Nominee shall not be required to be elected, or
nominated or recommended for re-election, to the Board unless such Board Nominee meets the requirements for an “independent director” under the listing rules of the New York Stock Exchange or any other principal exchange or market on which
Common Stock is then listed, satisfies the requirements set forth in the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines and Nominating and Governance Committee Charter as reasonably determined by the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board,
is not prohibited from serving as a director of the Company under Section 8 of the Clayton Antitrust Act or any other applicable Law and is not affiliated or associated with or related to (A) a material competitor of the Company and its
Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) or (B) a customer, supplier or other supply chain participant of the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) where membership of a Board Nominee on the Board could reasonably be expected, in the
reasonable judgment of the Board, to result in a material burden or disadvantage to the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) and (ii) the Board Nominee shall resign from the Board upon request by the Board if (A) the Board
Nominee fails at any time to satisfy the criteria set forth in the preceding sentence or cause for his removal exists as contemplated by the certificate of incorporation of the Company or (B) the Principal Holders, NM and DM, and their Related
Parties, cease at any time for any reason to hold and own, of record and Beneficially, in the aggregate at least 12,000,000 Shares (as adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, combination, or other recapitalization or reclassification effected
after the date hereof). Such a request by the Board may be made at any time after the occurrence of an event described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence. Nothing herein shall excuse the Board Nominee from tendering his resignation from
the Board or restrict the Board from accepting any such resignation when and as provided in the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines. 
 (d) The Board Nominee, for so long as he serves as a member of the Board and for three (3) years thereafter, shall keep all Information of the Company, its Subsidiaries and its and their
Representatives confidential and not disclose or use any of such Information except in connection with performing his duties as a member of the Board. At any time after he ceases to be a member of the Board for any reason, upon written notice from
the Company, the Board Nominee shall, at his election, either (i) promptly destroy at his expense all of such Information (in any form other than oral) in his possession (including all copies) and confirm such destruction to the Company in
writing or (ii) promptly deliver to the Company at his expense all of such Information (in any form other than oral) in his possession (including all copies). All of such Information in oral form will continue to be subject to this
Section 4.1(d). If the Board Nominee becomes required by Law to disclose any of such Information, the Board Nominee will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, as promptly as possible give written notice to that effect to the Company. The
Company, in its sole discretion, shall be entitled to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy. If the Company seeks such an order or remedy, the Board Nominee will, upon request, use all reasonable efforts to fully cooperate with the
Company at its expense. Regardless of whether such protective order or other remedy is obtained, the Board Nominee will furnish only that portion of such Information which he is legally required to furnish. If such a protective order or remedy is
not obtained, the Board Nominee will exercise reasonable best efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Information. If such a protective order or other remedy is obtained, the Board Nominee will exercise
reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that such Information is furnished in accordance with and subject to such protective order or 

  
 29 









 
remedy. To the extent that the Board Nominee furnishes Information in accordance with this Section 4.1(d), such furnishing will not constitute a breach of this Section 4.1(d).

 (e) The Board Nominee, for so long as he serves as a member of the Board, shall be entitled to the same rights, privileges
and compensation as the other members of the Board in their capacity as such, including with respect to indemnfication, insurance coverage and reimbursement for meeting participation and related expenses. 

(f) The Board Nominee and the Nominators shall provide prompt written notice at such time as any event occurs of which they are aware
that would reasonably be expected to terminate the obligation of the Company to nominate or renominate the Board Nominee (including the Board Nominee’s failure to meet the qualifications set forth in Section 4.1(c)). 

(g) The obligations of the Company under this Section 4 shall terminate upon the consummation of a Change in Control; provided,
however, that, for purposes of this Section 4 only, the percentage thresholds in clause (a) and (b) of the definition of Change in Control shall be 67% (and not 35%). 

(h) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, neither the Company nor the Board shall have any obligations under this
Section 4.1 if any Person shall have breached his obligations under Section 2 in any material respect and, if such a breach shall have occurred, the Board Nominee shall be deemed to have tendered his resignation as a member of the Board to
the Board, which it may accept at any time. 
 (i) The Company represents that it is not aware of any reason why the Board
Nominee would not meet the qualifications set forth in Section 4.1(c). 
 Section 5. Termination 

5.1 Termination. This Agreement shall terminate by mutual written consent of the parties (including Persons who have become Holders
but excluding Persons who have ceased to be Holders and to have any other rights and obligations under this Agreement).

 6.5 Amendments; Waiver. 

(a) This Agreement may be amended, modified or waived only by an instrument in writing executed by all of the parties (including Persons
who have become Holders but excluding Persons who have ceased to be Holders and to have any other rights and obligations under this Agreement in accordance with Section 2), or their respective successors or assigns; provided that an executed
instrument in writing by the Majority Holders (calculated based on the number of Registrable Securities beneficially held) shall bind all of Holders for purposes of this Section 6.5; and provided further that Holders of Registrable Securities
immediately after the Effective Time not party to this Agreement as of the date hereof may execute counterparts to this Agreement without the consent or additional signatures of Holders party hereto, and upon the Company’s receipt of such
additional Holder’s executed signature pages hereto, such additional Holders shall be deemed to be a party hereto and such additional signature pages shall be a part of this Agreement. 

(b) No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall
any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies
provided by applicable Laws. 
 6.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of
which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties. 

6.7 Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (a) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all
prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and (b) is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties any rights or remedies. No Person other than the
parties (which includes Persons who become Holders as provided in Section 2.2) and the Indemnified Parties shall be, or be deemed to be, a third party beneficiary or otherwise have any rights under this Agreement. 

6.8 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware,
regardless of the Laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of Laws thereof. 
 6.9
Successors’ Assignment. Except as otherwise provided in the definition of “Company” this Agreement shall bind the parties and their successors and assigns and inure to the benefit of the parties and their permitted assigns.
Neither this Agreement nor any rights or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this
Agreement shall be void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Holder may assign all or any portion of its registration rights under this Agreement to (a) any Transferee of Registrable Securities owned by such Holder who is a Related Party of such
Holder and (b) to any other Transferee of at least 1,500,000 Registrable Securities (as adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, combination, or other recapitalization or reclassification effected after the date hereof) owned by such
Holder, in each case so long as such Transfer is effected in accordance with Section 2 and such Transferee becomes a “Holder” in accordance with Section 2.

 6.10 Consent to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto (a) consents to submit
itself to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any federal court within the District of Delaware in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
(b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court and (c) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any federal court within the District of Delaware. Any judgment from any such court described above may, however, be enforced by any party in
any other court in any other jurisdiction. 
 6.11 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS
REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS
AGREEMENT, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 6.11. 
 6.12 Injunctive Relief.
Each of the parties agrees, on behalf of itself, its Affiliates and its Related Parties, that money damages for a breach hereof by it or them is unlikely to be calculable, that such a breach is likely to cause irreparable harm to the aggrieved
Person and that remedies at Law are likely to be inadequate to protect the aggrieved Person against any actual or threatened breach hereof. Accordingly, each of the parties agrees, on behalf of itself, its Affiliates and its Related Parties, that
the other parties may seek injunctive relief in favor of the aggrieved Person in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, without proof of actual damages and without the requirement of posting bond or other security. Such relief shall not
be the exclusive remedy for a breach or threatened breach hereof, but shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies available at Law, in equity or otherwise to the aggrieved Person.
