continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission within 120 days following the date
of filing thereof (the “Resale Shelf Effective Date”). The Resale Shelf Registration Statement shall be on an appropriate form and the registration statement and any form of prospectus included therein (or prospectus supplement
relating thereto) shall reflect the plan of distribution or method of sale as the Holders may from time to time notify the Company. The Company agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide notice to the Holders, including the form of
Notice and Questionnaire attached hereto as Exhibit A, on or prior to the date five (5) Business Days prior to the Resale Shelf Effective Date. 

At the time the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, each Holder that has delivered a duly completed and executed Notice
and Questionnaire to the Company on or prior to the date ten (10) Business Days prior to such time of effectiveness shall be named as a selling securityholder in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus in such a
manner as to permit such Holder to deliver such prospectus to purchasers of Registrable Securities in accordance with applicable law. If required by applicable law, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, after effectiveness of the Resale Shelf
Registration Statement, the Company shall file a supplement to such prospectus or amendment to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement not less than once a calendar quarter as necessary to name as selling securityholders therein any Holders that

Commission as promptly as reasonably practicable after the filing thereof.

 (c) Shelf Registration Effectiveness. Subject to Sections 2.1(d) and 3
hereof, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep any Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective for the period (the “Shelf Effectiveness Period”) beginning on the date on which a Shelf Registration
Statement is declared effective and ending on the date that all of the Registrable Securities registered under a Shelf Registration Statement cease to be Registrable Securities. During the period that a Shelf Registration Statement is effective, the
Company shall supplement or make amendments to the Shelf Registration Statement, if required by the Securities Act or if reasonably requested by the Holders (whether or not required by the form on which the securities are being registered),
including to reflect any specific plan of distribution or method of sale, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have such supplements and amendments declared effective, if required, as soon as practicable after filing. 

(d) Shelf Registration Subsequent Filings. The Company shall prepare and file such additional Registration Statements as necessary and
use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statements to be declared effective by the Commission so that a Shelf Registration Statement remains continuously effective, subject to Section 3, with respect to the
Registrable Securities as and for the period required under Section 2.1(c), as applicable (such subsequent Registration Statements to constitute a Resale Shelf Registration Statement or an Issuer Shelf Registration Statement, as the case
may be, hereunder). 
 (e) Selling Holders Become Party to Agreement. Each Holder acknowledges that by participating in its
registration rights pursuant to this Agreement, such Holder will be deemed a party to this Agreement and will be bound by its terms, notwithstanding such Holder’s failure to deliver a Notice and Questionnaire; provided, that any Holder
that has not delivered a duly completed Notice and Questionnaire shall not be entitled to be named as a Selling Holder in, or have the Registrable Securities held by it covered by, a Shelf Registration Statement. 

(f) Additional Rights Under the Consolidation Registration Rights Agreement. It is understood and agreed that all of the Registrable
Securities held by the Malkin Group pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to the rights to which the Malkin Group is entitled under Sections 2.1(c) (Underwritten Registered Resales), 2.1(d) (Underwriters), 2.2 (Underwritten
Demand Registration), 2.3 (Piggy-Back Rights), and 2.4 (Reduction of Offering) of the Consolidation Registration Rights Agreement; and such Registrable Securities shall be taken into account when such rights are exercised by the
Malkin Group in accordance with the Consolidation Registration Rights Agreement. 
 Section 3. Black-Out Periods. 

(a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 2.1(a), 2.1(b) or 4, the Company shall be permitted to postpone the filing
of the Registration Statement (including any Shelf Registration Statement), and from time to time to require Holders not to sell under the Registration Statement or to suspend the use or effectiveness thereof, for such times as the Company
reasonably may determine is necessary and advisable (but in no event shall the Company be entitled to exercise such right more than two times or for more than an aggregate of 150 days in any rolling 12-month period commencing on the date of this
Agreement, except as a result of a refusal by the Commission to declare any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement effective after the Company has used all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the post-effective amendment to be
declared effective by the Commission, in which case, the Company must terminate the black-out period immediately following the effective date of 

  
 - 6 - 








 
the post-effective amendment), if any of the following events shall occur (each such circumstance a “Suspension Event”): (i) a majority of the Board determines in good faith
that (A) the offer or sale of any Registrable Securities would materially impede, delay or interfere with any proposed financing, offer or sale of securities, acquisition, corporate reorganization or other material transaction involving the
Company, (B) after the advice of counsel, the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement would require disclosure of non-public material information not otherwise required to be disclosed under applicable law, or
(C) (x) the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving the confidentiality of such transaction, (y) disclosure would have a material adverse effect on the Company or the Company’s ability to consummate such
transaction, or (z) such transaction renders the Company unable to comply with Commission requirements, in each case under circumstances that would make it impractical or inadvisable, based on the advice of counsel, to cause the Registration
Statement (or such filings) to become effective or to promptly amend or supplement the Registration Statement on a post effective basis, as applicable; or (ii) a majority of the Board determines in good faith, upon the advice of counsel, that
it is in the Company’s best interest or it is required by law, rule or regulation to supplement the Registration Statement or file a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement in order to ensure that the prospectus included in the
Registration Statement (1) contains the information required under Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; (2) discloses any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or of the most recent
post-effective amendment) that, individually or in the aggregate, represents a fundamental change in the information set forth therein; or (3) discloses any material information with respect to the plan of distribution that was not disclosed in
the Registration Statement or any material change to such information. Upon the occurrence of any such suspension, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective or to promptly amend
or supplement the Registration Statement on a post effective basis or to take such action as is necessary to permit resumed use of the Registration Statement or filing thereof as soon as possible. 

The Company will provide written notice (a “Suspension Notice”) to the Holders and the Selling Holders’ Counsel, if any,
of the occurrence of any Suspension Event. If as a result of a Suspension Event, the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits 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 (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, each Holder agrees that (i) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Registrable
Securities under the Registration Statement until the Holder receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which the Company agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives
notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by the Company that it may resume such offers and sales, and (ii) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in the written notice
delivered by the Company unless otherwise required by law or subpoena. If so directed by the Company, each Holder will deliver to the Company (at the expense of the Company) all copies of the prospectus covering the Registrable Securities at the
time of receipt of the Suspension Notice, other than permanent file copies in the possession of such Holder’s counsel. The Holders may recommence effecting sales of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement (or such
filings) following further written notice to such effect (an “End of Suspension Notice”) from the Company, which End of Suspension Notice shall be given by the Company to the Holders and to the Selling Holders’ Counsel, if any,
promptly following the conclusion of any Suspension Event and its effect. 
 (b) In connection with any Registration Statement utilized by
the Company to satisfy its obligations under this Agreement, each Holder agrees to cooperate with the Company in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement, and each Holder agrees that it will (i) respond within ten
(10) Business Days to any written request by the Company to provide or verify information regarding the Holder or the Holder’s Registrable Securities (including the proposed manner of sale) that may be


  
 - 7 - 








 
required to be included in such Registration Statement and related prospectus pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Commission, and (ii) provide in a timely manner information
regarding the proposed distribution by the Holder of the Registrable Securities and such other information as may be requested by the Company from time to time in connection with the preparation of and for inclusion in the Registration Statement and
related prospectus. 
 (c) If all reports required to be filed by the Company pursuant to the Exchange Act have not been filed by the
required date taking into account any permissible extension, upon written notice thereof by the Company to the Holders, the rights of the Holders to offer, sell or distribute any Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement or to
require the Company take action with respect to the registration or sale of any Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement shall be suspended until the date on which the Company has filed such reports, and the Company shall use
commercially reasonable efforts, taking into account the circumstances of the Company at such time, to file the required reports as promptly as commercially practicable, and shall notify the Holders as promptly as practicable when such suspension is
no longer required. 
 (d) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, if the Company shall give a Suspension Notice with respect
to any Registration Statement pursuant to Section 3(a), the Company agrees that it shall extend the period of time during which such Registration Statement shall be maintained effective pursuant to this Agreement by the number of days
during the period from the date of receipt by the Holders of the Suspension Notice to and including the date of receipt by the Holders of the End of Suspension Notice and provide copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus necessary to resume
sales, with respect to each Suspension Event; provided, that, such period of time shall not be extended beyond the date that Class A Common Stock covered by such Registration Statement are no longer Registrable Securities.

be in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in “comfort” letters to Underwriters in connection with similar Underwritten Offerings;

other things, the appointment of such agent for the Selling Holders for the purpose of soliciting purchases of Registrable Securities, which agreement shall be in form, substance and scope customary for similar offerings; 

(E) if an underwriting agreement is entered into, cause the same to set forth indemnification provisions and procedures
substantially equivalent to the indemnification provisions and procedures set forth in Section 5 hereof with respect to the Underwriters and all other parties to be indemnified pursuant to said Section or, at the request of any
Underwriters, in the form customarily provided to such Underwriters in similar types of transactions; and 
 (F) deliver

representative, Underwriter, counsel or accountant in connection with a Registration Statement, and make such representatives of the Company available for discussion of such documents as shall be
reasonably requested by the Selling Holders’ Counsel; provided, however, that the Selling Holders’ Counsel, if any, and the representatives of any Underwriters will use commercially reasonable efforts, to the extent

Selling Holders’ Counsel, reasonably requests; not file any such document in a form to which any Underwriter shall not have previously been advised and furnished a copy of or to which any Underwriter shall reasonably object; reasonably consider
the Selling Holders’ Counsel’s comments, if any, in preparing the Registration Statement; not include in any amendment or supplement to such documents any information about the Selling Holders or any change to the plan of distribution of
Registrable Securities that would limit the method of distribution of the Registrable Securities unless Selling Holders’ Counsel has been advised in advance and has approved such information or change; and make the representatives of the

 (xx) cooperate and assist in any filings required to be made with the
FINRA and in the performance of any due diligence investigation by any Underwriter and its counsel (including any “qualified independent Underwriter” that is required to be retained in accordance with the rules and regulations of the
FINRA). 

  
 - 12 - 








 The Company may (as a condition to a Holder’s participation in a Registration) require each
Holder of Registrable Securities to furnish to the Company such information regarding the Holders and the proposed distribution by such Holder of such Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing. 

Each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event or the discovery of any facts of the type
described in Section 4(a)(v) hereof, such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement relating to such Registrable Securities until such Holder’s receipt of the copies
of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 4(a)(x) hereof, or until such Holder is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Registration Statement may be resumed, and, if so directed by the Company,
such Holder will deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies in such Holder’s possession, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities
current at the time of receipt of such notice. 
 Section 5. Indemnification. 

(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, and the respective officers,
directors, partners, trustees, executors, employees, representatives and agents of any such Person, and each Person (a “Controlling Person”), if any, who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or
Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act) any of the foregoing Persons, as follows: 
 (i) against any and all loss, liability,
claim, damage, judgment, actions, other liabilities and expense whatsoever (the “Liabilities”), as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement
(or any amendment or supplement thereto) pursuant to which Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act, including all documents incorporated therein by reference, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or
the omission or alleged omission therefrom at such date of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; 

(ii) against any and all Liabilities, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation,
or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided,
that (subject to Section 5(d) below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company; and 

(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the fees at standard non-premium rates and disbursements
of counsel chosen by any indemnified party), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever
based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under subparagraph (i) or (ii) above; 

  
 - 13 - 








 provided, however, that this indemnity and hold harmless agreement shall not apply to any
Liabilities to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder expressly for use in a
Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto). Such indemnity and hold harmless agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of
the Holders or any such Controlling Person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by the Holders. 
 (b) Indemnification by
the Holders. Each Holder severally (based on the number of its Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Agreement), but not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the other selling Holders, and each of their
respective officers, directors, partners, employees, trustees, executors, representatives and agents, and each of their respective Controlling Persons, against any and all Liabilities described in the indemnity contained in Section 5(a)
hereof, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any prospectus included therein (or any amendment or supplement
thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information with respect to such Holder furnished to the Company by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or such prospectus (or any amendment
or supplement thereto); provided, however, that no such Holder shall be liable for any claims hereunder in excess of the amount of net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such
Registration Statement. 
 (c) Notices of Claims, etc. Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable
to each indemnifying party of any action or proceeding commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure so to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder
to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity and hold harmless agreement. An indemnifying party may
participate at its own expense in the defense of such action; provided, however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. In no event
shall the indemnifying party or parties be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but
similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. Subject to Section 5(d) below, no indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without
its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with such consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party shall indemnify and hold harmless such indemnified parties from and
against any loss or liability (to the extent stated above) by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any
judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whosoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this
Section 5 (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out
of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 

  
 - 14 - 








 (d) Indemnification Payments. If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an
indemnifying party consent to any settlement of the nature contemplated by Sections 5(a)(ii) or 5(c), such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for such settlement, including any such related fees and expenses
of counsel, effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request; (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of
the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into; and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have responded to such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such
settlement. 
 (e) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 5 is for any reason unavailable to
or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any Liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such Liabilities incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Holders on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Liabilities, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations; provided, however, that no Holder shall be liable for any claims hereunder in excess of the amount of net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration
Statement. 
 The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Holders on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Holders and the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 
 The Company and the Holders agree that
it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to
above in this Section 5. The aggregate amount of Liabilities incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 5 shall be deemed to include any such legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such
indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any 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. 

Section 6. Market Stand-Off Agreement. Each Holder hereby agrees that it shall not, directly or indirectly sell, offer to sell
(including without limitation any short sale), pledge, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of or otherwise dispose of or transfer any
Registrable Securities or other Class A Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Class A Common Stock then owned by such Holder (other than to permitted transferees of the Holders who agree to be
similarly bound) for up to 90 days following the date of an underwriting agreement with respect to an underwritten public offering of the Company’s securities as requested by the managing underwriter of such Underwritten Offering;
provided, however, that: 
 (a) the restrictions above shall not apply to Registrable Securities sold on the Holders’
behalf to the public in an Underwritten Offering pursuant to a Registration Statement; 

  
 - 15 - 








 (b) all officers and directors of the Company then holding Class A Common Stock or
securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Class A Common Stock enter into similar agreements for not less than the entire time period required of the Holders hereunder; and 

(c) the Holders shall be allowed any concession or proportionate release allowed to any (i) officer, (ii) director, (iii) other
holder of the Company’s Class A Common Stock that entered into similar agreements (with such proportion being determined by dividing the number of shares being released with respect to such officer, director or other holder of the
Company’s Class A Common Stock by the total number of issued and outstanding shares held by such officer, director or holder). 

In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company shall have the right to place restrictive legends on the certificates representing the
securities subject to this Section 6 and to impose stop transfer instructions with respect to the Registrable Securities and such other securities of each Holder (and the securities of every other Person subject to the foregoing
restriction) or to assign a different CUSIP number therefor until the end of such period. 
 Section 7. Termination; Survival.
The rights of each Holder under this Agreement shall terminate upon the date that such Holder ceases to hold any Registrable Securities and with respect to the Company upon the end of the Shelf Effectiveness Period with respect to any Shelf
Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations of the parties under Sections 5 and 8 of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect following such time. 

Section 8. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Registration Expenses. The Company shall pay all expenses incident to the performance by the Company of its registration
obligations under Section 2 above, including, without limitation, (i) all expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, printing and distribution of any Registration Statement and prospectus and all amendments and
supplements thereto, (ii) all stock exchange, Commission and state securities registration, listing and filing fees, (iii) all fees and expenses of complying with securities or “blue sky” laws, (iv) all FINRA fees,
(v) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and fees and expenses for the independent certified public accountants retained by the Company (including the expenses or costs associated with the delivery of any opinions or comfort
letters), (vi) all internal expenses of the Company (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers performing legal or accounting duties); and (vii) the fees and expenses of any person, including special experts,
retained by the Company in connection with the preparation of any Registration Statement. Except as required in this Section 8, the Company shall have no obligation to pay (i) any fees, discounts or commissions attributable to the sale of
Registrable Securities; (ii) any Holder’s out-of-pocket expenses relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or (iii) any transfer taxes relating to the registration for sale of the Registrable Securities. 

(b) Covenants Relating To Rule 144. For so long as the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15 of the
Exchange Act, the Company covenants that it will file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the Commission thereunder. If the
Company ceases to be so required to file such reports, the Company covenants that it will upon the request of any Holder of Registrable Securities (a) make publicly available such information as is necessary to permit sales pursuant to
Rule 144 under the Securities Act, (b) deliver such information to a prospective purchaser as is necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and it will take such further action as any Holder of
Registrable Securities may reasonably request, and (c) take such further action that is reasonable in the circumstances, in each case to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell its Registrable Securities without
registration under the Securities Act within the 

  
 - 16 - 








 
limitation of the exemptions provided by (i) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such Rule may be amended from time to time, (ii) Rule 144A under the Securities Act, as such
rule may be amended from time to time, or (iii) any similar rules or regulations hereafter adopted by the Commission. Upon the request of any Holder of Registrable Securities, the Company will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to
whether it has complied with such requirements (at any time after 90 days after the effective date of the first Registration Statement filed by the Company for an offering of its Class A Common Stock to the general public) and of the Securities
Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act), a copy of the most recent annual and quarterly report(s) of the Company, and such other reports, documents or stockholder
communications of the Company, and take such further actions consistent with this Section 8(b), as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing a Holder to sell any such
Registrable Securities without registration. 
 (c) Participation in Underwritten Offerings. No Person may participate in any
Underwritten Offerings hereunder unless such Person (a) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and
(b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements and these registration rights provided for in this
Agreement. Except as provided in the Consolidation Registration Rights Agreement, the Company shall select the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in connection with any Underwritten Offering. 

(d) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company has not entered into and the Company will not after the date of this Agreement enter into
any agreement which is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions of this Agreement. The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not and will
not for the term of this Agreement in any way conflict with the rights granted to the holders of the Company’s other issued and outstanding securities under any such agreements. 

(e) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived at any time only by the written agreement of the
Company and the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities; provided, however, that the provisions of this Agreement may not be amended or waived without the consent of each Holder of Registrable Securities adversely affected
by such amendment or waiver if such amendment or waiver adversely affects a portion of the Registrable Securities but does not so adversely affect all of the Registrable Securities; provided, further, that the provisions of the
preceding provision may not be amended or waived except in accordance with this sentence. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any such Holder of any provision or condition of this Agreement must be made in
writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in writing. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon each Holder of Registrable Securities and the Company. 

(f) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand delivery,
registered first-class mail, facsimile or any courier guaranteeing overnight delivery.
