 ARTICLE II. 
 REGISTRATION RIGHTS 
 Section 2.1 Demand Registration.

 (a) The Holders shall have the right after the IPO Date to request in writing (a “Request”) (which
request shall specify the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Holders and the intended method of distribution thereof, including in a Rule 415 Offering, if Covisint is then eligible to register such Registrable Securities on
Form S-3 (or a successor form) for such offering) that Covisint register such portion of such Holders’ Registrable Securities as shall be specified in the Request (a “Demand Registration”) by filing with the Commission, as soon
as practicable thereafter, but not later than the 45th day (or the 75th day if the applicable registration form is other than Form S-3) after the receipt of such a Request by Covisint, a registration statement (a “Demand Registration
Statement”) covering such Registrable Securities, and Covisint shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have such Demand Registration Statement become effective with the Commission concurrently with filing or as soon as practicable
thereafter, but in no event later than the 90th day (or the 105th day if the applicable registration form is other than Form S-3) after the receipt of such a Request, and, subject to Section 2.4, to keep such Demand Registration
Statement Continuously Effective for a period of at least twenty-four (24) months, in the case of a Rule 415 Offering, or, in all other cases, for a period of at least 180 days following the date on which such Demand Registration Statement is
declared effective (or for such shorter period which will terminate when all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Demand Registration Statement shall have been sold pursuant thereto), including, if necessary, by filing with the Commission a
post-effective amendment or a supplement to the Demand Registration Statement or the related prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or by filing any other required document or otherwise supplementing or amending the Demand
Registration Statement, if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by Covisint for such Demand Registration Statement or by the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities or blue sky
laws, or any rules and regulations thereunder; provided that such period during which the Demand Registration Statement shall remain Continuously Effective shall, in the case of an Underwritten Offering, and subject to
Section 2.4, be extended for such period (if any) as the underwriters shall reasonably require, including to satisfy, in the judgment of counsel to the underwriters, any prospectus delivery requirements imposed by applicable law.

 (b) Covisint shall not be obligated to effect more than two (2) Demand Registrations in any calendar year. For purposes
of the preceding sentence, a Demand Registration shall not be deemed to have been effected (and, therefore, not requested for purposes of paragraph (a) above), (i) unless a Demand Registration Statement with respect thereto has become
effective, (ii) if after such Demand Registration Statement has become effective, the offer, sale or distribution of Registrable Securities thereunder is prevented by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or
other governmental agency or court for any reason not attributable to any Holder and such effect is not thereafter eliminated or (iii) if the conditions to closing specified in the purchase agreement or underwriting agreement entered into in
connection with such registration are not satisfied or waived other than by reason of a failure on the part of any Holder. If Covisint shall have complied with its obligations under ARTICLE II, a right to a Demand Registration pursuant to
this Section 2.1 shall be deemed to have been satisfied upon the earlier of (x) the date as of which all of the Registrable Securities included therein shall have been sold to the underwriters or distributed pursuant to the Demand
Registration Statement and (y) the date as of which such Demand Registration Statement shall have been effective for an aggregate period of at least twenty-four (24) months, in the case of a Rule 415 Offering, or, in all other cases, for a
period of at least 180 days following the effectiveness of such Demand Registration Statement. 

  
 6 








 (c) Any request made pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall be addressed to the
attention of the Secretary of Covisint, and shall specify the number of Registrable Securities to be registered (which shall be not less than the lesser of (x) five percent (5%) of the total number of Registrable Securities outstanding or
(y) the remaining balance of the Registrable Securities then held by the Holders). 
 (d) Each Holder shall be permitted to
withdraw all or, subject to compliance with the parenthetical in Section 2.1(c) above, part of such Holder’s Registrable Securities from a Demand Registration at any time prior to the effective date thereof and each Holder shall
have the right to withdraw such Holder’s Request at any time prior to the execution of an underwriting agreement with respect thereto by giving written notice to Covisint of such Holder’s request to withdraw. 

(e) Covisint may not include in a Demand Registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 shares of Covisint Capital Stock for the
account of Covisint or any Subsidiary of Covisint, but, if and to the extent required by a contractual obligation, may, subject to compliance with Section 2.1(f), include shares of Covisint Capital Stock for the account of any other
Person who holds shares of Covisint Capital Stock entitled to be included therein; provided, however, that if the Underwriters’ Representative of any offering described in this Section 2.1 shall have informed Covisint
in writing that in its judgment there is a Maximum Number of shares of Covisint Capital Stock that all Holders and any other Persons desiring to participate in such Demand Registration may include in such offering, then Covisint shall include in
such Demand Registration: (i) first, the number of securities that such underwriters advise can be so sold without materially and adversely affecting the success or pricing of such offering, allocated pro rata among the Holders, if necessary,
on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities required to be included therein by each such Holder, and (ii) second, such additional number of securities that such underwriters advise can be so sold without materially and adversely
affecting the success or pricing of such offering, allocated pro rata among any other Person who holds shares of Covisint Capital Stock entitled to be included therein, on the basis of the number of shares of Capital Stock requested to be included
in such offering by such other Person. 
 (f) No Holder may participate in any Underwritten Offering under this
Section 2.1 and no other Person shall be permitted to participate in any such offering pursuant to this Section 2.1 unless it completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, custody agreements,
underwriting agreements and other customary documents required under the customary terms of such underwriting arrangements. In connection with any Underwritten Offering under this Section 2.1, each participating Holder and Covisint and,
except in the case of a Rule 415 Offering hereof, each other Person shall be a party to the underwriting agreement with the underwriters and may be required to make certain customary representations and warranties and provide certain customary
indemnifications for the benefits of the underwriters; provided that the Holders shall not be required to make representations and warranties with respect to Covisint or their business and operations and shall not be required to agree to any
indemnity or contribution provisions less favorable to them than as are set forth herein.

 Section 2.2 Piggyback Registration. 

(a) In the event that Covisint at any time after the IPO Date proposes to register any Covisint Capital Stock, any other of its equity
securities or securities convertible into or exchangeable for its equity securities (collectively, including Covisint Capital Stock, “Other Securities”) under the Securities Act, either in connection with a primary offering for cash
for the account of Covisint, a secondary offering or a combined primary and secondary offering (such registration of Other Securities, a “Registration”), (other than (i) a Registration under Section 2.1(a) hereof,
(ii) a Registration pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-8 or Form S-4 or similar forms that relate to a transaction subject to Rule 145 under the Securities Act, (iii) any form that does not include substantially the same
information, other than information relating to the selling holders or their plan of distribution, as would be required to be included in a Registration Statement covering the sale of Registrable Securities, (iv) in connection with any dividend
reinvestment or similar plan, (v) for the sole purpose of offering securities to another entity or its security holders in connection with the acquisition of assets or securities of such entity or any similar transaction, or (vi) a
Registration in which the only Covisint Capital Stock being registered is Covisint Capital Stock issuable upon conversion of debt securities which are also being registered) Covisint will each time it intends to effect such a registration, give
written notice (a “Covisint Notice”) to all Holders of Registrable Securities at least ten (10) business days prior to the initial filing of a registration statement with the Commission pertaining thereto, informing such
Holders of its intent to file such registration statement and of the Holders’ right to request the registration of the Registrable Securities held by the Holders. Upon the written request of the Holders made within seven (7) business days
after any such Covisint Notice is given (which request shall specify the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Holder and the intended distribution thereof; provided, however, if (i) the Registrable Securities
intended to be disposed of are shares of Covisint common stock and (ii) the applicable registration is intended to effect a primary offering of shares of Covisint common stock for cash for the account of Covisint, such request shall specify
only the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Holder), Covisint will use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which Covisint has been so requested to
register by the Holders to the extent required to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended methods of distribution thereof or, in the case of a registration which is intended to effect a primary offering for cash for the account of
Covisint, in accordance with Covisint’s intended method of distribution) of the Registrable Securities so requested to be registered, including, if necessary, by filing with the Commission a post-effective amendment or a supplement to the
registration statement filed by Covisint or the related prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or by filing any other required document or otherwise supplementing or amending the registration statement filed by Covisint, if
required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by Covisint for such registration statement or by the Securities Act, any state securities or blue sky laws, or any rules and regulations thereunder;
provided, however, that if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any Other Securities and prior to the Effective Date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, Covisint
shall determine for any reason not to register or to delay such registration of the Other Securities, Covisint shall give written notice 

  
 8 








 
of such determination to each Holder of Registrable Securities and, thereupon, (i) in the case of a determination not to register, Covisint shall be relieved of its obligation to register
any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses incurred in connection therewith or from Covisint’s obligations with respect to any subsequent registration) and
(ii) in the case of a determination to delay such registration, Covisint shall be permitted to delay registration of any Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration statement for the same period as the delay in
registering such Other Securities. 
 (b) Each Holder shall be permitted to withdraw all or part of such Holder’s
Registrable Securities from a Registration at any time prior to the effective date thereof and each Holder shall have the right to withdraw such Holder’s request for inclusion, pursuant to this Section 2.2, of its Registrable
Securities in any Underwritten Offering at any time prior to the execution of an underwriting agreement with respect thereto by giving written notice to Covisint of such Holder’s request to withdraw. 

(c) If, in connection with a registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.2, the Underwriters’ Representative of
the offering registered thereon shall inform Covisint in writing that in its opinion there is a Maximum Number of shares of Covisint Capital Stock that may be included therein and if such registration statement relates to an offering initiated by
Covisint of Covisint Capital Stock being offered for the account of Covisint, Covisint shall include in such registration: (i) first, the number of shares Covisint proposes to offer (“Covisint Securities”), (ii) second, up
to the full number of Registrable Securities held by Holders of Registrable Securities that are requested to be included in such registration (Registrable Securities that are so held being sometimes referred to herein as “Compuware
Securities”) to the extent necessary to reduce the respective total number of shares of Covisint Capital Stock requested to be included in such offering to the Maximum Number recommended by such Underwriters’ Representative (and in the
event that such Underwriters’ Representative advises that less than all of such Compuware Securities may be included in such offering, the Holders of Registrable Securities may withdraw their request for registration of their Registrable
Securities under this Section 2.2 and not less than 90 days subsequent to the Effective Date of the registration statement for the registration of such Other Securities request that such registration be effected as a registration under
Section 2.1 to the extent permitted thereunder), and (iii) third, up to the full number of the Other Securities (other than Covisint Securities), if any, in excess of the number of Covisint Securities and Compuware Securities to be
sold in such offering to the extent necessary to reduce the respective total number of shares of Covisint Capital Stock requested to be included in such offering to the Maximum Number recommended by such Underwriters’ Representative (and, if
such number is less than the full number of such Other Securities, such number shall be allocated pro rata among the holders of such Other Securities (other than Covisint Securities) on the basis of the number of securities requested to be included
therein by each such holder). 
 (d) If, in connection with a registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.2,
the Underwriters’ Representative of the offering registered thereon shall inform Covisint in writing that in its opinion there is a Maximum Number of shares of Covisint Capital Stock that may be included therein and if such registration
statement relates to an offering initiated by any Person other than Covisint (the “Other Holders”), Covisint shall include in such registration the 

  
 9 








 
number of securities (including Registrable Securities) that such underwriters advise can be so sold without materially and adversely affecting the success or pricing of such offering, allocated
pro rata among the Other Holders and the Holders of Registrable Securities on the basis of the number of securities (including Registrable Securities) requested to be included therein by each Other Holder and Holder of Registrable Securities.

 (e) No Holder may participate in any Underwritten Offering under this Section 2.2 and no other Person shall be
permitted to participate in any such offering pursuant to this Section 2.2 unless it completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, custody agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents
required under the customary terms of such underwriting arrangements. In connection with any Underwritten Offering under this Section 2.2, each participating Holder and Covisint and each such other Person shall be a party to the
underwriting agreement with the underwriters of such offering and may be required to make certain customary representations and warranties and provide certain customary indemnifications for the benefits of the underwriters; provided that the
Holders shall not be required to make representations and warranties with respect to Covisint or their business and operations and shall not be required to agree to any indemnity or contribution provisions less favorable to them than as are set
forth herein. 
 (f) The registration rights granted pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.2 shall be in
addition to the registration rights granted pursuant to Section 2.1. No registration of Registrable Securities effected under this Section 2.2 shall relieve Covisint of its obligation to effect a registration of Registrable
Securities pursuant to Section 2.1. 
 Section 2.3 Expenses. Except as provided herein, Covisint shall
pay all Registration Expenses in connection with all registrations of Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Holder of Registrable Securities and Covisint shall be responsible for its own internal administrative and similar
costs, which shall not constitute Registration Expenses. 
 Section 2.4 Blackout Period. Covisint shall be entitled
to elect that a registration statement not be usable, or that the filing thereof be delayed beyond the time otherwise required, for a reasonable period of time (a “Blackout Period”), if Covisint reasonably determines in good faith
that the registration and distribution of Registrable Securities (or the use or filing of the Registration Statement or related prospectus) would interfere with any pending material financing, merger, acquisition, consolidation, recapitalization,
corporate reorganization or any other material corporate development involving Covisint or any of its Subsidiaries or would require premature disclosure thereof that would be detrimental to Covisint, and Covisint promptly gives the Holders of
Registrable Securities written notice of such determination, and if requested by Holders and to the extent such action would not violate applicable law, Covisint will promptly deliver to the Holders a general statement of the reasons for such
postponement or restriction on use and to the extent practicable an approximation of the anticipated delay, and promptly gives the Holders of Registrable Securities written notice at the conclusion of such Blackout Period. For the avoidance of
doubt, the Parties agree that an election by Covisint that a registration statement for the registration and distribution of Registrable Securities shall not be usable, or shall be delayed, during a Blackout Period shall not act to reduce the period
during which such registration statement shall remain effective pursuant to the terms of this ARTICLE II. 

  
 10 









 Section 2.5 Selection of Underwriters. If any Rule 415 Offering or any offering
pursuant to a Demand Registration Statement is an Underwritten Offering, Compuware will select a managing underwriter or underwriters to administer the offering, which managing underwriter shall be reasonably satisfactory to Covisint. Covisint shall
have the right to select a managing underwriter or underwriters to administer any Underwritten Offering contemplated by Section 2.2. 
 Section 2.6 Obligations of Covisint. If and whenever Covisint is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act as provided in this ARTICLE
II, Covisint shall as promptly as practicable:

disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition set forth in such registration statement and (ii) the expiration of one hundred eighty (180) days after such registration statement becomes effective; provided,
however, that such one hundred eighty (180) day period shall be extended for such number of days that equals the number of days elapsing from (x) the date the written notice contemplated by paragraph (f) below is given by
Covisint to (y) the date on which Covisint delivers to Holders of Registrable Securities the supplement or amendment contemplated by paragraph (f) below; 
 (c) furnish to Holders of Registrable Securities and to any underwriter of such Registrable Securities such number of conformed copies of such registration statement and of each such amendment and

conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, such documents incorporated by reference in such registration statement or prospectus, and such other documents, as Holders of Registrable Securities or such underwriter may reasonably request,
and a copy of any and all transmittal letters or other correspondence to or received from the Commission or any other governmental agency or self-regulatory body or other body having jurisdiction (including any domestic or foreign securities
exchange) relating to such offering; 
 (d) use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify all Registrable
Securities covered by such registration statement under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Holders of such Registrable Securities or any underwriter to such Registrable Securities shall request, and use commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain all appropriate registrations, permits and consents in connection therewith, and do any and all other acts and things which may be necessary or advisable to enable the Holders of Registrable Securities or any such
underwriter to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of its Registrable 

  
 11 









 
Securities covered by such registration statement; provided, that Covisint shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to do business as a foreign corporation in any
such jurisdiction wherein it is not so qualified or to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction; 
 (e)
(i) use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish to each Holder of Registrable Securities included in such registration (each, a “Selling Holder”) and to any underwriter of such Registrable Securities an opinion of counsel
for Covisint addressed to each Selling Holder and dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement (if any) (or if such offering is not underwritten, dated the Effective Date of the registration statement) and (ii) use
commercially reasonable efforts to furnish to each Selling Holder a “cold comfort” letter addressed to each Selling Holder and signed by the independent public accountants who have audited the financial statements of Covisint included in
such registration statement, in each such case covering substantially the same matters with respect to such registration statement (and the prospectus included therein) as are customarily covered in opinions of issuer’s counsel and in
accountants’ letters delivered to underwriters in underwritten public offerings of securities and such other matters as the Selling Holders may reasonably request and, in the case of such accountants’ letter, with respect to events
subsequent to the date of such financial statements; 
 (f) as promptly as practicable, notify the Selling Holders in writing
(i) at any time when a prospectus or, prior to such time as a final prospectus is available, an issuer free writing prospectus relating to a registration made pursuant to Section 2.1 or Section 2.2 contains an 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, not misleading due to the occurrence of any event
and (ii) of any request by the Commission or any other regulatory body or other body having jurisdiction for any amendment of or supplement to any registration statement or other document relating to such offering, and in either such case, at
the request of the Selling Holders prepare and furnish to the Selling Holders a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus or, prior to such time as a final prospectus is available, such issuer free writing
prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading; 
 (g) if
reasonably requested by the lead or managing underwriters, use commercially reasonable efforts to list all such Registrable Securities covered by such registration on each securities exchange and automated inter-dealer quotation system on which a
class of common equity securities of Covisint is then listed; 
 (h) to the extent reasonably requested by the lead or managing
underwriters, send appropriate officers of Covisint to attend any “road shows” scheduled in connection with any such registration, with all out-of-pocket costs and expense incurred by Covisint or such officers in connection with such
attendance to be paid by Covisint; 
 (i) furnish or cause to be furnished for delivery in connection with the closing of any
offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration effected pursuant to Section 2.1

Obligations of Selling Holders. Each Selling Holder agrees by having its securities treated as Registrable Securities hereunder that, upon receipt of written notice from Covisint specifying that the prospectus relating to a registration made
pursuant to Section 2.1 or Section 2.2 contains an 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, not misleading due to the occurrence of any event, such Selling Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until such Selling Holder is advised by Covisint that the use of the
prospectus may be resumed and is furnished with a supplemented or amended prospectus as contemplated by Section 2.6(f) hereof, and, if so directed by Covisint, such Selling Holder will deliver to Covisint all copies of the prospectus
covering such Registrable Securities then in such Selling Holder’s possession at the time of receipt of such notice. 

Section 2.8 Underwriting; Due Diligence. 
 (a) If requested by the underwriters for any Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration requested under this ARTICLE II, Covisint shall enter into an underwriting
agreement in a form reasonably satisfactory to Covisint with such underwriters for such offering, which agreement will contain such representations and warranties by Covisint and such other terms and provisions as are customarily contained in
underwriting agreements with respect to secondary distributions, including, without limitation, indemnification and contribution provisions substantially to the effect and to the extent provided in Section 2.9, and agreements as to the
provision of opinions of counsel and accountants’ letters to the effect and to the extent provided in Section 2.6(e). The Selling Holders on whose behalf the Registrable Securities are to be distributed by such underwriters shall be
a party to any such underwriting agreement and the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, Covisint to and for the benefit of such underwriters, shall also be made to and for the benefit of such Selling Holders.
Such underwriting agreement shall also contain such representations and warranties by such Selling Holders and such other terms and provisions as are customarily contained in underwriting agreements with respect to secondary distributions,
including, without limitation, indemnification and contribution provisions substantially to the effect and to the extent provided in Section 2.9. 
 (b) In connection with the preparation and filing of each registration statement registering Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to this ARTICLE II, Covisint shall give the
Holders of such Registrable Securities and the underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel and accountants, such reasonable and customary access to its books and records and such opportunities to discuss the business of Covisint with its
officers and the independent public accountants who have certified the financial statements of Covisint as shall 

  
 13 









 
be necessary, in the opinion of such Holders and such underwriters or their respective counsel, to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act; provided
that such Holders and the underwriters and their respective counsel and accountants shall use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate any such investigation of the books and records of Covisint and any such discussions with Covisint’s
officers and accountants so that all such investigations occur at the same time and all such discussions occur at the same time. 
 Section 2.9 Indemnification by Covisint. 
 (a) In the case of each
offering of Registrable Securities made pursuant to this ARTICLE II, Covisint agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, each Selling Holder, each underwriter of Registrable Securities so offered and each Person,
if any, who controls any of the foregoing Persons within the meaning of the Securities Act and the officers, directors, affiliates, employees and agents of each of the foregoing, against any and all losses, liabilities, costs (including reasonable
attorney’s fees and disbursements), claims and damages, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, including any amount paid in settlement of any litigation commenced or threatened,
insofar as such losses, liabilities, costs, claims and damages (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, whether or not such indemnified Person is a party thereto) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement by Covisint or alleged
untrue statement by Covisint of a material fact contained in the registration statement (or in any preliminary or final prospectus included therein or issuer free writing prospectus related thereto) or in any offering memorandum or other offering
document relating to the offering and sale of such Registrable Securities prepared by Covisint or at its direction, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or in any document incorporated by reference therein, or any omission by Covisint or
alleged omission by Covisint to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or
on behalf of any Selling Holder or any other holder and shall survive the transfer of such securities. 
 (b) The indemnity set
forth in Section 2.9(a) above is in addition to any liability that Covisint may otherwise have to each Selling Holder, or other holder or underwriter of the Registrable Securities or any controlling person of the foregoing and the
officers, directors, affiliates, employees and agents of each of the foregoing. 
 (c) In the case of an offering with respect
to which a Selling Holder has designated the lead or managing underwriters (or a Selling Holder is offering Registrable Securities directly, without an underwriter), the indemnity set forth in Section 2.9(a) does not apply to any loss,
liability, cost, claim or damage arising out of or relating to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission in any preliminary prospectus or offering memorandum if a copy of a final prospectus or offering
memorandum was not sent or given by or on behalf of any underwriter (or such Selling Holder or other holder, as the case may be) to such Person asserting such loss, liability, cost, claim or damage at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale
of the Registrable Securities as required by the Securities Act and such untrue statement or omission had been corrected in such final prospectus or offering memorandum. 

  
 14 









 (d) Notwithstanding Section 2.9(a) above, Covisint shall not be liable to any
Person to the extent that any loss, liability, cost, claim or damage arises out of or relates to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or any omission, if such statement or omission shall have been made in reliance upon and in conformity
with information furnished to Covisint in writing by or on behalf of any Selling Holder, any other holder of securities whose securities are included in such registration statement or any underwriter, as the case may be, specifically for use in the
registration statement (or in any preliminary or final prospectus included therein or issuer free writing prospectus related thereto), offering memorandum or other offering document, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto. 

Section 2.10 Indemnification by the Selling Shareholders. 

(a) In the case of each offering made pursuant to this Agreement, each Selling Holder, by exercising its registration rights hereunder,
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, and to cause each underwriter of Registrable Securities included in such offering (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in Section 2.9(a) to agree to indemnify and hold harmless to
the extent permitted by law, Covisint, each other underwriter who participates in such offering, each other Selling Holder or other holder with securities included in such offering and in the case of an underwriter, such Selling Holder or other
holder, and each Person, if any, who controls any of the foregoing within the meaning of the Securities Act and the officers, directors, affiliates, employees and agents of each of the foregoing, against any and all losses, liabilities, costs
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements), claims and damages, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, including any amount paid in settlement of any litigation
commenced or threatened, insofar as such losses, liabilities, costs, claims and damages (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof, whether or not such indemnified Person is a party thereto) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement by such Selling Holder or underwriter, as the case may be, of a material fact contained in the registration statement (or in any preliminary or final prospectus included therein or issuer free writing prospectus related
thereto) or in any offering memorandum or other offering document relating to the offering and sale of such Registrable Securities prepared by Covisint or at its direction, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or in any document
incorporated by reference therein, or any omission by such Selling Holder or underwriter, as the case may be, or alleged omission by such Selling Holder or underwriter, as the case may be, to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that such statement or omission shall have been made in reliance on or in conformity with information furnished to Covisint in writing by or on
behalf of such Selling Holder or underwriter, as the case may be, specifically for use in such registration statement (or in any preliminary or final prospectus included therein or issuer free writing prospectus related thereto), offering memorandum
or other offering document or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto. 
 (b) The indemnity set forth in
Section 2.10(a) above is in addition to any liability which such Selling Holder or underwriter, as the case may be, may otherwise have to Covisint, or controlling persons and the officers, directors, affiliates, employees, and agents of
each of the foregoing 

  
 15 









 (c) In the case of an offering made pursuant to this Agreement with respect to which
Covisint has designated the lead or managing underwriters (or Covisint is offering securities directly, without an underwriter), the indemnity set forth in Section 2.10(a) does not apply to any loss, liability, cost, claim, or damage
arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission in any preliminary prospectus or offering memorandum if a copy of a final prospectus or offering memorandum was not sent or given by or on
behalf of any underwriter (or Covisint, as the case may be) to such Person asserting such loss, liability, cost, claim or damage at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the Registrable Securities as required by the Securities Act and
such untrue statement or omission had been corrected in such final prospectus or offering memorandum. 
 Section 2.11
Indemnification Procedures. Each Party indemnified under Section 2.9(a) or Section 2.10(a) above shall, promptly after receipt of notice of a claim or action against such indemnified party in respect of which indemnity
may be sought hereunder, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or action; provided that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party on account
of the indemnity contained in Section 2.9(a) or Section 2.10(a) above except to the extent that the indemnifying party was actually prejudiced by such failure, and in no event shall such failure relieve the indemnifying party
from any other liability that it may have to such indemnified party. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall have notified the indemnifying party thereof, unless in such indemnified party’s
reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified party and indemnifying party may exist in respect of such claim, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any
other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such
claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under Section 2.9(a) or Section 2.10(a) for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with
the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. Any indemnifying party against whom indemnity may be sought under Section 2.9(a) or Section 2.10(a) shall not be liable to indemnify an indemnified party if
such indemnified party settles such claim or action without the consent of the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party may not agree to any settlement of any such claim or action, other than solely for monetary damages for which the indemnifying
party shall be responsible hereunder, the result of which any remedy or relief shall be applied to or against the indemnified party, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. In any action hereunder as to which the indemnifying party has assumed the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, the indemnified party shall continue to be entitled to participate in the defense
thereof, with counsel of its own choice, but the indemnifying party shall not be obligated hereunder to reimburse the indemnified party for the costs thereof. 
 Section 2.12 Contribution. If an indemnification provided for in Section 2.9(a) or Section 2.10(a) shall for any reason be unavailable (other than in accordance with
its terms) to an indemnified party in respect of any loss, liability, cost, claim or damage referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, cost, claim or 

  
 16 









 
damage (i) as between Covisint and the Selling Holders on the one hand and the underwriters on the other, in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received
by Covisint and the Selling Holders on the one hand and the underwriters on the other hand or, if such allocation is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits but also the
relative fault of Covisint and the Selling Holders on the one hand and the underwriters on the other with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, liability, cost, claim or damage as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations and (ii) as between Covisint on the one hand and each Selling Holder on the other, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of Covisint and of each Selling Holder in connection with such statements or
omissions as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by Covisint and the Selling Holders on the one hand and the underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total proceeds
from the offering (net of underwriting discounts and commissions but before deducting expenses) received by Covisint and the Selling Holders bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the underwriters, in each case as set
forth in the table on the cover page of the prospectus. The relative fault of Covisint and the Selling Holders on the one hand and of the underwriters on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by Covisint and the Selling Holders or by the underwriters. The relative fault of Covisint on the one hand and of each Selling
Holder on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such
party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission, but not by reference to any indemnified party’s stock ownership in Covisint. The amount paid or
payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, cost, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 2.12 shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 2.12,
any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Covisint and the Selling Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant
to this Section 2.12 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred
to in this paragraph. 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 2.13 Several Obligations of the Selling Shareholders. The obligation to indemnify or contribute under
Section 2.10(a) and Section 2.12 shall be several, and not joint, among the Selling Holders who furnished or failed to furnish the information in a registration statement (or in any preliminary or final prospectus included
therein or issuer free writing prospectus related thereto) or in any offering memorandum or other offering document relating to the offering and sale of Registrable Securities that resulted in any loss, liability, claim or damages. The liability of
each such Selling Holder shall be limited to such Selling Holder’s proportionate amount of the aggregate gross proceeds received by all such Selling Holders from the sale of such Registrable Securities and shall not in any event exceed the
gross proceeds received by such Selling Holder from such sale. 

  
 17 









 Section 2.14 Additional Registrations or Qualifications. Indemnification and
contribution similar to that specified in Section 2.9(a), Section 2.10(a) and Section 2.12 (with appropriate modifications) shall be given by Covisint, the Selling Holders and any underwriters with respect to any
required registration or other qualification of securities under any state law or regulation or governmental authority. 

Section 2.15 Rule 144 and Form S-3. Covisint shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the conditions to the
availability of Rule 144 set forth in paragraph (c) thereof shall be satisfied. Upon the request of any Holder of Registrable Securities, Covisint will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such
requirements. Covisint further agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all conditions to the availability of Form S-3 (or any successor form) under the Securities Act for the filing of registration statements under this Agreement to
be met as soon as reasonably practicable after the IPO Date. 
 Section 2.16 Holdback Agreement. 

(a) If so requested by the Underwriters’ Representative in connection with an offering of securities covered by a registration
statement filed by Covisint, whether or not Registrable Securities of the Holders are included therein, each Holder shall agree not to effect any sale or distribution of Covisint Capital Stock, including any sale under Rule 144, without the prior
written consent of the Underwriters’ Representative (otherwise than through the registered public offering then being made), within seven (7) days prior to or ninety (90) days (or such lesser period as the Underwriters’
Representative may permit) after the Effective Date of the registration statement (or the commencement of the offering to the public of such Registrable Securities in the case of Rule 415 Offerings). The Holders shall not be subject to the
restrictions set forth in this Section 2.16 for longer than an aggregate of ninety-seven (97) days during any 12-month period. 
 (b) If so requested by the Underwriters’ Representative in connection with an offering of any Registrable Securities, Covisint shall agree not to effect any sale or distribution of Covisint Capital
Stock, without the prior written consent of the Underwriters’ Representative (otherwise than through the registered public offering then being made or in connection with any acquisition or business combination transaction and other than in
connection with stock options and employee benefit plans and compensation), within seven (7) days prior to or ninety (90) days (or such lesser period as the Underwriters’ Representative may permit) after the Effective Date of the
registration statement (or the commencement of the offering to the public of such Registrable Securities in the case of Rule 415 Offerings) and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and enforce similar agreements from any other Persons
if requested by the Underwriters’ Representative; provided that Covisint or such Persons shall not be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 2.16 for longer than an aggregate of ninety-seven (97) days
during any twelve (12) month period. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything else in this Section 2.16 to the contrary,
no Holder shall be precluded from distributing to any or all of its stockholders any or all of the Registrable Securities.
