 W I T N E S S E T H: 

WHEREAS, the Company and the Trustee are parties to an Indenture, dated as of October 6, 2017 (the “Indenture”),
pursuant to which the Company issued its 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2024 (the “Notes”); 
 WHEREAS, the Company and
the Trustee are parties to the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 27, 2019 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), which amended the Indenture (the Indenture, as so amended, the “Original
Indenture” and the Original Indenture as amended by this Second Supplemental Indenture, the “Supplemented Indenture”); 

WHEREAS, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 24, 2019, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to
Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 15, 2019, and as it may be further amended from time to time, (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, Parent and Colt Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a
direct wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”); 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to the Merger Agreement and subject to the
terms and conditions therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), whereupon the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and the Company will continue as the surviving corporation in the
Merger and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent; 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to the Merger Agreement and subject to the terms and conditions
therein, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to
the Effective Time (other than the shares of Company Common Stock held by the Company, Merger Sub, Parent or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company or Parent) will be converted into the right to receive cash or shares of
common stock, par value $0.00001 of Parent (the “Parent Common Stock”) at the election of the holder thereof, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement (the “Consideration Election”);













 WHEREAS, Section 10.08(a) of the Indenture provides that (i) upon the occurrence
of any Share Exchange Event, then, at and after the effective time of the transaction, the Holder of each Note shall have the right to convert each $1.00 principal amount of Notes into, in lieu of Company Common Stock, the Reference Property, and
(ii) if holders of Common Stock shall have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received pursuant to such Share Exchange Event, the Reference Property shall be deemed to be the weighted average, per share of Common Stock, of
the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock that affirmatively make such an election (or, if no holders of Common Stock make such an election, the types and amounts of consideration actually received by holders of
Common Stock) and Section 10.08(b) of the Indenture provides that, in certain circumstances, a supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 10.08(a) shall be executed by an entity whose securities compose the Reference Property and shall
contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the holders of the Notes as the Board of Directors in good faith shall reasonably determine necessary; 

WHEREAS, Parent desires to fully and unconditionally guarantee (the “Note Guarantee”) all of the payment obligations of the
Company under the Notes and the Original Indenture so as to make available the exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Act and Rule
144(d)(3)(ii) of the Act, in each case, for shares of Parent Common Stock delivered upon conversion of the Notes following the Merger; 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Company and the Trustee may enter into indentures supplemental to the Original
Indenture for the purpose of, among other things, (i) adding a guarantor with respect to the Notes, or (ii) in connection with any Share Exchange Event, providing that the Notes become convertible into Reference Property, as required under
Section 10.08 of the Indenture, and to effect the related changes to the terms of the Notes required under Section 10.08 of the Indenture, in each case, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Original Indenture; 

WHEREAS, in connection with the execution and delivery of this Second Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee has received an Officer’s
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as contemplated by Sections 5.01(a)(vi), 9.06, 10.08(c), 13.04 and 13.05 of the Indenture; 
 WHEREAS,
the Company and Parent have requested and hereby request that the Trustee execute and deliver this Second Supplemental Indenture and have satisfied all requirements necessary to make this Second Supplemental Indenture a valid and binding instrument,
enforceable against each of the Company and the Parent in accordance with its terms. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing
and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company, Parent and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders as follows: 

ARTICLE I 
 DEFINITIONS 

Section 1.01    Definitions in this Second Supplemental Indenture. A term defined in the Original Indenture
has the same meaning when used in this Second Supplemental Indenture unless such term is otherwise defined herein or amended or supplemented pursuant to this Second Supplemental Indenture. The words “herein,” “hereof,”
“hereunder,” and words of similar import refer to this Second Supplemental Indenture as a whole and not to any particular Article, Section or other subdivision. 












 ARTICLE II 

EFFECT OF MERGER ON CONVERSION RIGHT 

Section 2.01    Parent to Provide Parent Common Stock. Parent hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to
be bound by the terms of the Supplemented Indenture applicable to it and to issue shares of Parent Common Stock as necessary to satisfy the Company’s obligations with respect to any Notes validly surrendered for conversion pursuant to Article X
of the Indenture. 
 Section 2.02    Conversion Right. (a) The Company and Parent expressly agree that,
in accordance with Section 10.08 of the Indenture, at and after the Effective Time, the Holder of each Note that was outstanding as of the Effective Time shall have the right to convert each $1.00 principal amount of such Note into a number of
Units of Reference Property equal to the Conversion Rate and the term “Settlement Amount” shall be interpreted accordingly. The Conversion Rate immediately following the Effective Time will be 0.138998325 Units of Reference Property for
each $1.00 principal amount of Notes (prior to giving effect to any Make-Whole Applicable Increase). 
 “Unit of Reference Property” shall mean,
collectively, the weighted average per share of Common Stock of the (i) number of shares of Parent Common Stock and (ii) amount of cash received as consideration in the Merger by the holders of Common Stock that affirmatively make the
Consideration Election. 
 (b) The provisions of the Original Indenture, as modified herein, including without limitation, (i) all
references and provisions respecting the terms “Common Stock,” “Conversion Price,” “Conversion Rate,” “Conversion Shares,” “Daily Conversion Value,” “Daily VWAP,” “Ex-Dividend Date,” “Last Reported Sale Price,” “Observation Period,” “Settlement Amount,” “VWAP Market Disruption Event,” and “VWAP Trading Day” shall
continue to apply, mutatis mutandis, to the Holders’ right to convert their Notes into Units of Reference Property. The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted as a result of events occurring subsequent to the date hereof with respect to the
Reference Property as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments of the Conversion Rate provided for in Article X of the Indenture. 

ARTICLE III 
 PARENT GUARANTEE 

Section 3.01     Guarantee. Subject to the provisions of this Article III, Parent hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally guarantees, on a senior unsecured basis, to the Holders and to the Trustee the full and punctual payment (whether at stated maturity, by declaration of acceleration, upon required
repurchase, upon conversion or otherwise) of the principal of, the Settlement Amount, if any, premium, if any, and interest on, and all other amounts payable under, each Note, and the full and punctual payment of all other amounts payable by the
Company under the Supplemented Indenture. Upon failure by the Company to pay punctually any such amount, Parent shall forthwith on demand pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the manner specified in the Supplemented Indenture. 

Section 3.02     Guarantee Unconditional. The obligations of Parent hereunder are unconditional and absolute
and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, will not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by: 

(a)    any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of the Company under
the Supplemented Indenture or any Note, by operation of law or otherwise; 
 (b)    any modification or amendment of or
supplement to the Supplemented Indenture or any Note; 












 (c)     any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of
the Company, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Company or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Company contained in the Supplemented Indenture or any Note;

 (d)    the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which Parent may
have at any time against the Company, the Trustee or any other Person, whether in connection with the Supplemented Indenture or any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein prevents the assertion of any such claim by separate suit
or compulsory counterclaim; 
 (e)    any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Company for any
reason of the Supplemented Indenture or any Note, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by the Company of the principal of or interest on any Note or any other amount payable by the Company under the
Supplemented Indenture; or 
 (f)    any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Company, the Trustee
or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to Parent’s obligations hereunder. 

Section 3.03     Discharge; Reinstatement. Parent’s obligations hereunder will remain in full force and
effect until the principal of, premium, if any, the Settlement Amount, if any, and interest on the Notes and all other amounts payable by the Company under the Supplemented Indenture have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of the
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note or any other amount payable by the Company under the Supplemented Indenture is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the
Company or otherwise, Parent’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment will be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time. 

Section 3.04     Waiver by the Guarantor. Parent irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand,
protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Company or any other Person. 

Section 3.05     Subrogation and Contribution. Upon making any payment with respect to any obligation of the
Company under this Article, Parent will be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Company with respect to such obligation, provided that Parent may not enforce either any right of subrogation, or any right to receive payment in the
nature of contribution, or otherwise, from any other Guarantor, with respect to such payment so long as any amount payable by the Company hereunder or under the Notes remains unpaid. 

Section 3.06     Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the
Company under the Supplemented Indenture or the Notes is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Supplemented Indenture are nonetheless
payable by Parent hereunder forthwith on demand by the Trustee or the Holders. 
 Section 3.07     Execution and
Delivery of Guarantee. The execution by Parent of this Second Supplemental Indenture evidences the Note Guarantee, whether or not the person signing as an officer of Parent still holds that office at the time any payment under the Note Guarantee
is due. 
 Section 3.08     Release of Guarantee. The Note Guarantee will terminate upon defeasance or
discharge of the Notes, as provided in Article VIII of the Indenture. Upon delivery by the Company to the 












 
Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the foregoing effect, the Trustee will execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of Parent
from its obligations under the Note Guarantee.
