 ARTICLE 2 

REGISTRATION RIGHTS 

Section 2.01. Demand Registration. (a) If at any time after 180 days following the completion of the
First Public Offering, the Company shall receive a request from a Shareholder or group of Shareholders, in each case holding at least 40% of the Registrable Securities (the requesting Shareholder(s) shall be referred to herein as the
“Initial Requesting Shareholders”), that the Company effect the registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of such Initial Requesting Shareholder’s Registrable Securities, and specifying the intended method of
disposition thereof, then the Company shall give notice (a “Demand Notice”) of such requested registration (each such request shall be referred to herein as a “Demand Registration”) to the other Shareholders, which
notice shall be given not later than five Business Days prior to the anticipated filing date of the registration statement relating to such Demand Registration. Such other Shareholders may, upon notice received by the Company no later than two
Business Days after the date of notice of a Demand Registration, request that the Company also effect the registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of such other Shareholder’s Registrable Securities (such other requesting
Shareholders, together with the Initial Requesting Shareholder(s), shall be referred to herein as the “Requesting Shareholders”). Thereafter, subject to the restrictions in Section 2.01(e), the Company shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities for which the Requesting Shareholders have requested registration under this Section 2.01 to the extent necessary to permit the disposition of the
Registrable Securities so to be registered (in accordance with the intended methods thereof as aforesaid), provided that the Company shall be permitted to effect the registration under the Securities Act of any securities other
than the Registrable Securities (including for the benefit of Persons not party to this Agreement) as part of any Demand Registration; provided further that the Company shall not be obligated to effect a Demand Registration
unless the aggregate gross proceeds expected to be received from the sale of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Demand Registration equals or exceeds $20,000,000 or such lesser amount that constitutes all of the Requesting
Shareholder’s Registrable Securities (provided that such lesser amount is at least $10,000,000). In no event shall the Company be required to effect (i) more than one Demand Registration hereunder within any six-month period or
(ii) any Demand Registration if, at the time of such request, four or more Demand Registrations and Underwritten Takedowns (as defined below) have previously been effected ((i) and (ii) hereinafter collectively referred to as the
“Demand Registration Limitations”). 
 (b) At any time prior to the effective date of the registration statement
relating to a Demand Registration, a Shareholder may withdraw from the related registration by providing written notice to the Company. If sufficient Registrable Securities are so withdrawn such that the number of Registrable Securities to be
included in such Demand Registration does not meet the applicable threshold 

  
 5 

 
required for such Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.01(a), the Company may cease all efforts to effect such Demand Registration, and upon the Company ceasing all efforts to effect
registration, such Demand Registration shall be deemed revoked. A request, so revoked, shall be considered to be a Demand Registration for purposes of the Demand Registration Limitations unless (i) such revocation arose out of the fault of the
Company or (ii) the Requesting Shareholders reimburse the Company for all Registration Expenses (other than the expenses set forth under clause (v) of the definition of the term Registration Expenses) incurred prior to such revocation, pro
rata among such Requesting Shareholders on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities of such Requesting Shareholders that were to be included in such revoked Demand Registration. 

(c) The Company shall be liable for and shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any Demand Registration, regardless of whether
such registration is effected, unless the Requesting Shareholders elect to pay such Registration Expenses as described in the last sentence of Section 2.01(b). 

(d) A Demand Registration shall not be deemed to have occurred (other than as provided in Section 2.01(b)) unless the registration statement
relating thereto (i) has become effective under the Securities Act and (ii) has remained effective for a period of at least 30 days (or such shorter period in which all Registrable Securities of the Requesting Shareholders included in such
registration have actually been sold thereunder). 
 (e) If a Demand Registration involves a Public Offering and the managing underwriter
advises the Company and the Requesting Shareholder that, in its view, the number of shares of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration (including any securities that the Company proposes to be included that are not
Registrable Securities) exceeds the largest number of shares that can be sold without having an adverse effect on such offering, including the price at which such shares can be sold (the “Maximum Offering Size”), the Company
shall include in such registration, in the priority listed below, up to the Maximum Offering Size: 
 (i) first, all
Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by all Requesting Shareholders (allocated, if necessary for the offering not to exceed the Maximum Offering Size, pro rata among such Shareholders on the basis of the relative
number of Registrable Securities so requested to be included in such registration by each such Shareholder; provided, that Warrant Shares shall be treated as "Registrable Securities" and holders of Warrant Shares shall be treated as "Shareholders" for the purpose of this Section 2.01(e)(i) only); and 
 (ii)
second, any securities proposed to be registered by the Company (including for the benefit of any other Persons not party to this Agreement). 

  
 6 

 (f) Upon notice to the Requesting Shareholders, the Company may postpone effecting a Demand
Registration on two occasions during any period of twelve consecutive months for a reasonable time specified in the notice but not exceeding 90 days in the aggregate in any period of twelve consecutive months, if (i) the Board of Directors of
the Company reasonably determines in good faith that effecting the registration would materially and adversely affect an offering of securities of the Company the preparation of which had then been commenced, or (ii) the Company is in
possession of material non-public information the disclosure of which during the period specified in such notice the Board of Directors of the Company reasonably believes would not be in the best interests of the Company. 

Section 2.02. Piggyback Registration. (a) If the Company proposes to register any Common Shares under
the Securities Act (other than (i) a Shelf Registration, which will be subject to the provisions of Section 2.03; provided that any Underwritten Takedown will be subject to this Section 2.02, or (ii) a registration on Form S-8,
F-4 or S-4, or any successor or similar forms, relating to Common Shares issuable upon exercise of employee stock options or in connection with any employee benefit or similar plan of the Company or in connection with a direct or indirect
acquisition by the Company of another Person), whether or not for sale for its own account, the Company shall each such time give prompt notice at least five Business Days prior to the anticipated filing date of the registration statement relating
to such registration to each Shareholder, which notice shall set forth such Shareholder’s rights under this Section 2.02 and shall offer such Shareholder the opportunity to include in such registration statement the number of Registrable
Securities of the same class or series as those proposed to be registered as each such Shareholder may request (a “Piggyback Registration”). Any such Shareholder may, within two Business Days after the receipt of notice from the
Company, request that the Company also effect the registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of such Shareholder’s Registrable Securities. Thereafter, subject to the provisions of Section 2.02(b), the Company shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities that the Company has been so requested to register by all such Shareholders, to the extent necessary to permit the disposition of the
Registrable Securities so to be registered, provided that (A) if such registration involves a Public Offering, all such Shareholders requesting to be included in the Company’s registration must sell their Registrable
Securities to the underwriters selected as provided in Section 2.05(f) on the same terms and conditions as apply to the Company, and (B) if, at any time after giving notice of its intention to register any Common Shares pursuant to this
Section 2.02(a) and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register such securities, the Company shall give notice to all
such Shareholders and, thereupon, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration. No registration effected under this Section 2.02 shall relieve the Company of its obligations to
effect a Demand Registration to the extent required by Section 2.01 or a Shelf Registration to the extent required by Section 2.03. The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each Piggyback Registration. 

  
 7 

 (b) If a Piggyback Registration involves a Public Offering and the managing underwriter advises
the Company that, in its view, the number of Shares that the Company and such Shareholders intend to include in such registration exceeds the Maximum Offering Size, the Company shall include in such registration, in the following priority, up to the
Maximum Offering Size: 
 (i) first, so much of the Common Shares proposed to be registered for the account of the Company as
would not cause the offering to exceed the Maximum Offering Size, 
 (ii) second, all Registrable Securities requested to be
included in such registration by any Shareholders pursuant to this Section 2.02 (allocated, if necessary for the offering not to exceed the Maximum Offering Size, pro rata among such Shareholders on the basis of the relative number of shares of
Registrable Securities so requested to be included in such registration by each such Shareholder; provided, that Warrant Shares shall be treated as "Registrable Securities" and holders of Warrant Shares shall be treated as "Shareholders" for the purpose of this Section 2.02(b)(ii) only), and 
 (iii) third, any
securities proposed to be registered for the account of any other Persons with such priorities among them as the Company shall determine; 
 provided,
however, that in no event shall the number of Shareholders’ Registrable Securities included in any such registration be reduced to less than 20% of the Maximum Offering Size if the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included
therein by Shareholders exceeds such amount. 
 Section 2.03. Shelf Registration. (a) At any
time after the first anniversary of the First Public Offering, if the Company is eligible to use Form F-3 or Form S-3, a Shareholder or group of Shareholders, in each case holding at least 10% of the Registrable Securities (the requesting
Shareholder(s) shall be referred to herein as the “Initial Shelf Requesting Shareholders”), may request the Company to effect a registration of some or all of the Registrable Securities held by such Initial Shelf Requesting
Shareholders under a Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar rule) (a “Shelf Registration”). The Company shall give notice of such requested Shelf Registration to the other
Shareholders at least five Business Days prior to the anticipated filing date of the registration statement relating to such Shelf Registration. Such other Shareholders may, upon notice received by the Company no later than two Business Days after
the date of the notice of a Shelf Registration, request that the Company also effect a registration of some or all of the Registrable Securities held by such other Shareholders (such other requesting Shareholders, together with the Initial Shelf
Requesting Shareholders, the “Shelf Requesting Shareholders”). Thereafter, subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.01(e), the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect 

  
 8 

 
the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities for which the Shelf Requesting Shareholders have requested registration under this Section 2.03 to the extent
necessary to permit the disposition of the Registrable Securities so to be registered on such Shelf Registration, provided that the Company shall be permitted to effect the registration under the Securities Act of any securities
other than the Registrable Securities (including for the benefit of Persons not party to this Agreement) as part of any Shelf Registration. The Company shall only be required to effectuate one Public Offering from such Shelf Registration (an
“Underwritten Takedown”) within any six-month period, which offering shall be deemed a Demand Registration for purposes of the Company’s obligation to effect no more than four Demand Registrations in the aggregate as set forth
in Section 2.01(a).  
 (b) The provisions of Section 2.01 shall apply mutatis mutandis to each Underwritten
Takedown except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.03, with references to “filing of the registration statement” or “effective date” being deemed references to filing of a prospectus or supplement for such offering,
references to “registration” being deemed references to the offering, references to “Demand Registration” being deemed references to “Shelf Registration” or “Underwritten Takedown” as applicable and references
to “Requesting Shareholders” being deemed references to “Shelf Requesting Shareholders”; provided that Shelf Requesting Shareholders shall only include Shareholders whose Registrable Securities are included in such Shelf
Registration or may be included therein without the need for an amendment to such Shelf Registration (other than an automatically effective amendment). So long as the Shelf Registration is effective, no Shareholder may request any Demand
Registration pursuant to Section 2.01 with respect to Registrable Securities that are registered or registrable without the need for an amendment (other than an automatically effective amendment) on such Shelf Registration. 

Section 2.04. Lock-Up Agreements. If any registration of Registrable Securities shall be effected in connection with a
Public Offering or any registration of securities by the Company shall be effected in connection with an underwritten public offering, each Shareholder agrees to not effect any public sale or distribution, including any sale pursuant to Rule 144, of
any Common Shares or other security of the Company (except as part of such Public Offering) during the period beginning 14 days prior to the effective date of the applicable registration statement or, in the case of an Underwritten Takedown, 14 days
prior to launch of the offering or such later date when the Shareholder receives notice thereof until the earlier of (i) such time as the Company and the lead managing underwriter shall agree and (ii) 90 days following the effective date
of the applicable registration statement or, in the case of a Shelf Registration, 90 days following the pricing of the offering, in each case as may be extended for purposes of compliance with NASD Rule 2711(f)(4), or any successor rule thereto
(such period, the “Lock-Up Period” for the applicable registration statement). 

  
 9 

 Section 2.05. Registration Procedures. Whenever Shareholders request that any
Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to Section 2.01, 2.02, or 2.03, subject to the provisions of such Sections, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such Registrable Securities in
accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof as promptly as practicable, and, in connection with any such request: 

(a) The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC within 120 days of such request or such later date
as necessary to comply with applicable law, a registration statement on any form for which the Company then qualifies or that counsel for the Company shall deem appropriate and which form shall be available for the sale of the Registrable Securities
to be registered thereunder in accordance with the intended method of distribution thereof, and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such filed registration statement to become and remain effective for a period of not less than 30 days, or
in the case of a Shelf Registration, three years (or such shorter period in which all of the Registrable Securities of the Shareholders included in such registration statement shall have actually been sold thereunder or cease to be Registrable
Securities). 
 (b) Prior to filing a registration statement or prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto (other than any report
filed pursuant to the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference therein), the Company shall, if requested, furnish to each participating Shareholder and each underwriter, if any, of the Registrable Securities covered by a registration statement
or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto copies of such registration statement, prospectus, amendment or supplement in the form as proposed to be filed, and thereafter the Company shall furnish to such Shareholder and underwriter, if
any, such number of copies of such registration statement, prospectus, amendment and supplement (in each case excluding all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein unless specifically requested), the prospectus included in
such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus and any summary prospectus) and any other prospectus filed under Rule 424, Rule 430A, Rule 430B or Rule 430C under the Securities Act as such Shareholder or underwriter may
reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Shareholder. 
 (c) After the filing
of the registration statement, the Company shall (i) cause the related prospectus to be supplemented by any required prospectus supplement and, as so supplemented, to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act, (ii) comply with
the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement during the applicable period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Shareholders thereof
set forth in such registration statement or supplement to such prospectus and (iii) promptly notify each Shareholder holding Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement of any stop order issued or threatened by the SEC or any
state securities commission and take all reasonable actions required to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if entered. 

  
 10 

 (d) The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as any Shareholder holding such Registrable Securities reasonably (in light of such
Shareholder’s intended plan of distribution) requests; provided that the Company shall not be required to (A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this
Section 2.05(d), (B) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (C) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction. 

(e) The Company shall as promptly as practicable notify each Shareholder holding such Registrable Securities covered by such registration
statement, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the occurrence of an event requiring the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered
to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and
promptly prepare and make available to each such Shareholder and file with the SEC any such supplement or amendment. 
 (f) The Company
shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to select an underwriter or underwriters in connection with any Public Offering resulting from any exercise of a Demand Registration or Underwritten Takedown. In connection with any Public Offering, the
Company shall enter into customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such all other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in any
such Public Offering, including if necessary in the judgment of Company counsel, the engagement of a “qualified independent underwriter” in connection with the qualification of the underwriting arrangements with FINRA. 

(g) Upon execution of confidentiality agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall, in
connection with a Public Offering make available for inspection by any Shareholder and any underwriter participating in such Public Offering and any attorney, accountant or other professional (the retention of which is reasonable under the
circumstances) retained by any such Shareholder or underwriter (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the
“Records”) as shall be reasonably necessary or desirable to enable any of the Inspectors to exercise its due diligence responsibility, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information
reasonably requested by any Inspectors in connection with such Public Offering. Records that the Company determines in good faith to be  

  
 11 

 
confidential and that it notifies the Inspectors are confidential shall not be disclosed by the Inspectors unless (i) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a
material misstatement or omission in the registration statement related to such Public Offering or (ii) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Shareholder agrees
that information obtained by it as a result of such inspections shall be deemed confidential and shall not be used by it or its Affiliates as the basis for any market transactions in the Common Shares unless and until such information is made
generally available to the public. Each Shareholder further agrees that, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in a court of competent jurisdiction, it shall give notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to
undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of the Records deemed confidential. 
 (h) In connection with any Public Offering, the
Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish to each underwriter, if any, a signed counterpart, addressed to such underwriter, of (i) an opinion or opinions of counsel to the Company and (ii) a comfort letter or comfort
letters from the Company’s independent public accountants, each in customary form and covering such matters of the kind customarily covered by opinions or comfort letters, as the case may be, as the managing underwriter(s) therefor reasonably
requests. 
 (i) The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and
make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement or such other document covering a period of 12 months, beginning within three months after the effective date of the registration statement, which
earnings statement satisfies the requirements of Rule 158 under the Securities Act. 
 (j) The Company may require each Shareholder promptly
to furnish in writing to the Company such information regarding the distribution of the Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request and such other information as may be legally required in connection with such
registration. In connection with a Shelf Registration, any Shareholder that does not provide such information within two Business Days of a request by the Company may have its Registrable Securities excluded from such Shelf Registration. 

(k) Each Shareholder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section
2.05(e), such Shareholder shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such Registrable Securities until such Shareholder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or
amended prospectus contemplated by Section 2.05(e), and, if so directed by the Company, such Shareholder shall deliver to the Company all copies, other than any permanent file copies then in such Shareholder’s possession, of the most recent
prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such 

  
 12 

 
notice. If the Company shall give such notice, the Company shall extend the period during which such registration statement shall be maintained effective (including the period referred to in
Section 2.05(a)) by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of notice pursuant to Section 2.05(e) to the date when the Company shall make available to such Shareholder a prospectus supplemented or amended to
conform with the requirements of Section 2.05(e). 
 (l) The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to list all Registrable
Securities sold pursuant to an offering conducted pursuant to this Agreement on any securities exchange or quotation system on which the Common Shares are then listed or traded. 

(m) In any Public Offering conducted pursuant to a Demand Registration, the Company shall have appropriate officers of the Company
(i) prepare and make presentations at any “road shows” and before analysts and (ii) otherwise use their reasonable efforts to cooperate as reasonably requested by the underwriters in the offering, marketing or selling of the
Registrable Securities. 
 (n) Each Shareholder agrees that, in connection with any offering conducted pursuant to this Agreement, it will
not prepare or use or refer to, any “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act) without the prior written authorization of the Company (which authorization shall not be unreasonably withheld) and will not
distribute any written materials in connection with the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to any Public Offering conducted hereunder other than the prospectus and any such free writing prospectus so authorized. 

Section 2.06. Participation In Public Offering. No Shareholder may participate in any Public Offering hereunder unless such
Shareholder (a) agrees to sell such Shareholder’s Registrable Securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Company 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 the provisions of this Agreement in respect of registration rights. 

Section 2.07. Rule 144 Sales; Cooperation By The Company. If any Shareholder shall transfer any Registrable Securities
pursuant to Rule 144, the Company shall cooperate, to the extent commercially reasonable, with such Shareholder and shall provide to such Shareholder such information as such Shareholder shall reasonably request. Without limiting the foregoing, the
Company shall at any time after any of the Company’s Common Shares are registered under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act: (i) make and keep available public information, as those terms are contemplated by Rule 144; (ii) timely
file with the SEC all reports and other documents required to be filed under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and (iii) furnish to each  

  
 13 

 
Shareholder forthwith upon request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent
annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other information as such Shareholder may reasonably request in order to avail itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing such Shareholder to sell any Registrable Securities without
registration. 
 ARTICLE 3 

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION 

Section 3.01. Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Shareholder holding
Registrable Securities covered by a registration statement, and all officers, directors and employees of such Shareholder, and each Person, if any, who controls such Shareholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or
Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable and documented expenses of investigation and reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and expenses)
(collectively, “Damages”) caused by or relating to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities (as
amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus, or caused by or relating to any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such Damages are caused by or related to any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission so made based upon information furnished in
writing to the Company by such Shareholder or on such Shareholder’s behalf expressly for use therein. The Company also agrees to indemnify any underwriters of the Registrable Securities, their officers and directors and each Person who controls
such underwriters within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification of the Shareholders provided in this Section 3.01. 

Section 3.02. Indemnification by Participating Shareholders. (a) Each Shareholder holding Registrable Securities
covered by a registration statement agrees, severally but not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers, directors and agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity from the Company to such Shareholder provided in Section 3.01, but only with respect to information furnished in writing by such Shareholder or on such
Shareholder’s behalf expressly for use in any registration statement or prospectus relating to the Registrable Securities, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus. Each such Shareholder also agrees to indemnify and
hold harmless underwriters of the Registrable Securities, their officers and directors  

  
 14 

 
and each Person who controls such underwriters within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act on substantially the same basis as that of the
indemnification of the Company provided in this Section 3.02. 
 Section 3.03. Undertaking. As a condition to including
Registrable Securities in any registration statement filed in accordance with Article 2, the Company may require that it shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from any underwriter to indemnify and hold it harmless to the
extent customarily provided by underwriters with respect to similar securities 
 Section 3.04. Liability. No
Shareholder shall be liable for indemnification obligations under Section 3.02 for any Damages in excess of the net proceeds realized by such Shareholder in the sale of Registrable Securities of such Shareholder to which such Damages relate.

 Section 3.05. Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any proceeding (including any governmental investigation)
shall be brought or asserted against any Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.02 such Person (an “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the Person against whom such
indemnity may be sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and
shall assume the payment of all reasonable and documented fees and expenses, provided that the failure of any Indemnified Party so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except
to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure to notify. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the
expense of such Indemnified Party unless (a) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (b) in the reasonable judgment of such Indemnified Party representation of both
parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, including one or more defenses or counterclaims that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party. It
is understood that, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in
addition to one local counsel per jurisdiction) at any time for all such Indemnified Parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. In the case of any such separate firm for the Indemnified Parties, such firm
shall be designated in writing by the Indemnified Parties. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, 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. Without the prior written consent of the
Indemnified Party, no Indemnifying Party shall effect any 

  
 15 

 
settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified
Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such proceeding. 

Section 3.06. Contribution. (a) If the indemnification provided for in Section 3.01 or 3.02 is unavailable to the
Indemnified Parties in respect of any Damages, then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying the Indemnified Parties, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Damages as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying
Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been
taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission.
The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Damages shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, any reasonable attorneys’ or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in
connection with any proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in Sections 3.01 or 3.02 was available to such party in accordance with its terms. 

(b) The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 3.06 were determined by pro
rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3.06, no Shareholder shall be
required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the proceeds actually received by such Shareholder from the sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages that
such Shareholder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, except in the case of fraud by such Shareholder. Each Shareholder’s obligation to contribute pursuant to
this Section 3.06 is several in the proportion that the proceeds of the offering received by such Shareholder bears to the total proceeds of the offering received by all such Shareholders and not joint. 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. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this
Article 3 are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties.

Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in
no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in

THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES THAT, for good and valuable consideration, [SQUARE 1 BANK][OXFORD FINANCE LLC] [THREE POINT CAPITAL, LLC] ([“Oxford”][“Bank”] [“Three Point”]and, together with any successor or permitted assignee or transferee of this Warrant or of any shares issued upon exercise hereof, “Holder”) is entitled to purchase the number of fully paid and non-assessable shares (the “Shares”) of the above-stated Type/Series of Stock (the “Class”) of the above-named company (the “Company”) at the above-stated Warrant Price, all as set forth above and as adjusted pursuant to Section 2 of this Warrant, subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Warrant.

 

SECTION 1.         EXERCISE.

 

1.1          Method of Exercise.  Holder may at any time and from time to time prior to the Expiration Date exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, by delivering to the Company the original of this Warrant together with a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached hereto as Appendix 1 and, unless Holder is exercising this Warrant pursuant to a cashless exercise set forth in Section 1.2, a check, wire transfer of same-day funds (to an account designated by the Company), or other form of payment acceptable to the Company for the aggregate Warrant Price for the Shares being purchased.

 

1.2          Cashless Exercise.  On any exercise of this Warrant, in lieu of payment of the aggregate Warrant Price in the manner as specified in Section 1.1 above, but otherwise in accordance with the requirements of Section 1.1, Holder may elect to receive Shares equal to the value of this Warrant, or portion hereof as to which this Warrant is being exercised.  Thereupon, the Company shall issue to the Holder such number of fully paid and non-assessable Shares as are computed using the following formula:

 

X = Y(A-B)/A

 

where:

 

X =                             the number of Shares to be issued to the Holder;

 

Y =                             the number of Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised (inclusive of the Shares surrendered to the Company in payment of the aggregate Warrant Price);

 

 

A =                             the Fair Market Value (as determined pursuant to Section 1.3 below) of one Share; and

 

B =                             the Warrant Price.

 

1.3          Fair Market Value.  If the Company’s common stock is then traded or quoted on a nationally recognized securities exchange, inter-dealer quotation system or over-the-counter market (a “Trading Market”), the fair market value of a Share shall be the closing price or last sale price of a share of common stock reported for the Business Day immediately before the date on which Holder delivers this Warrant together with its Notice of Exercise to the Company.  If the Company’s common stock is not traded in a Trading Market, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine the fair market value of a Share in its reasonable good faith judgment.

 

1.4          Delivery of Certificate and New Warrant.  Within a reasonable time after Holder exercises this Warrant in the manner set forth in Section 1.1 or 1.2 above, the Company or its agent shall deliver to Holder a certificate representing (or reflect in book entry form with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar) the Shares issued to Holder upon such exercise and, if this Warrant has not been fully exercised and has not expired, a new warrant of like tenor representing the Shares not so acquired.

 

1.5          Replacement of Warrant.  On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form, substance and amount to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender of this Warrant to the Company for cancellation, the Company shall, within a reasonable time, execute and deliver to Holder, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor and amount.

 

1.6          Treatment of Warrant Upon Acquisition of Company.

 

(a)           Acquisition.  For the purpose of this Warrant, “Acquisition” means any transaction or series of related transactions involving: (i) the sale, lease, exclusive license, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (ii) any merger or consolidation of the Company into or with another person or entity (other than a merger or consolidation effected exclusively to change the Company’s domicile), or any other corporate reorganization, in which the stockholders of the Company in their capacity as such immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or reorganization, own shares representing less than a majority of the Company’s (or the surviving or successor entity’s) outstanding voting power immediately after such merger, consolidation or reorganization (or, if such Company stockholders beneficially own a majority of the outstanding voting power of the surviving or successor entity as of immediately after such merger, consolidation or reorganization, such surviving or successor entity is not the Company); or (iii) any sale or other transfer by the stockholders of the Company of shares representing at least a majority of the Company’s then-total outstanding combined voting power.

 

(b)           Treatment of Warrant at Acquisition.  In the event of an Acquisition in which the consideration to be received by the Company’s stockholders consists solely of cash, solely of Marketable Securities (as defined below) or a combination of cash and Marketable Securities (a “Cash/Public Acquisition”), either (i) Holder shall exercise this Warrant pursuant to Section 1.1 and/or 1.2 and such exercise will be deemed effective immediately prior to and contingent upon the consummation of such Acquisition or (ii) if Holder elects not to exercise the Warrant, this Warrant will expire immediately prior to the consummation of such Acquisition.

 

(c)           The Company shall provide Holder with written notice of its request relating to the Cash/Public Acquisition (together with such reasonable information as Holder may reasonably require regarding the treatment of this Warrant in connection with such contemplated Cash/Public Acquisition giving rise to such notice), which is to be delivered to Holder not less than seven (7) Business Days prior to the closing of the proposed Cash/Public Acquisition.  In the event the Company does not provide such notice, then if, immediately prior to the Cash/Public Acquisition, the fair market value of one Share (or other security issuable upon the exercise hereof) as determined in accordance with Section 1.3 above would be greater than the Warrant Price in effect on such date, then this Warrant shall automatically be deemed on and as of such date to be exercised pursuant to Section 1.2 above as to all Shares (or such other securities) for which it shall not previously have been exercised, and the Company shall promptly notify the Holder of the number of Shares (or such other securities) issued upon such exercise to the

 

 

Holder and Holder shall be deemed to have restated each of the representations and warranties in Section 4 of the Warrant as the date thereof.

 

(d)           Upon the closing of any Acquisition other than a Cash/Public Acquisition defined above, the acquiring, surviving or successor entity shall assume the obligations of this Warrant, and this Warrant shall thereafter be exercisable for the same securities and/or other property as would have been paid for the Shares issuable upon exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant as if such Shares were outstanding on and as of the closing of such Acquisition, subject to further adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.

 

(e)           As used in this Warrant, “Marketable Securities” means securities meeting all of the following requirements: (i) the issuer thereof is then subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and is then current in its filing of all required reports and other information under the Act and the Exchange Act; (ii) the class and series of shares or other security of the issuer that would be received by Holder in connection with the Acquisition were Holder to exercise this Warrant on or prior to the closing thereof is then traded in a Trading Market, and (iii) following the closing of such Acquisition, Holder would not be restricted from publicly re-selling all of the issuer’s shares and/or other securities that would be received by Holder in such Acquisition were Holder to exercise or convert this Warrant in full on or prior to the closing of such Acquisition, except to the extent that any such restriction (x) arises solely under federal or state securities laws, rules or regulations, and (y) does not extend beyond six (6) months from the closing of such Acquisition.

 

SECTION 2.         ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SHARES AND WARRANT PRICE.

 

2.1          Stock Dividends, Splits, Etc.  If the Company declares or pays a dividend or distribution on the outstanding shares of the Class payable in common stock or other securities or property (other than cash), then upon exercise of this Warrant, for each Share acquired, Holder shall receive, without additional cost to Holder, the total number and kind of securities and property which Holder would have received had Holder owned the Shares of record as of the date the dividend or distribution occurred.  If the Company subdivides the outstanding shares of the Class by reclassification or otherwise into a greater number of shares, the number of Shares purchasable hereunder shall be proportionately increased and the Warrant Price shall be proportionately decreased.  If the outstanding shares of the Class are combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares, the Warrant Price shall be proportionately increased and the number of Shares shall be proportionately decreased.

 

2.2          Reclassification, Exchange, Combinations or Substitution.  Upon any event whereby all of the outstanding shares of the Class are reclassified, exchanged, combined, substituted, or replaced for, into, with or by Company securities of a different class and/or series, then from and after the consummation of such event, this Warrant will be exercisable for the number, class and series of Company securities that Holder would have received had the Shares been outstanding on and as of the consummation of such event, and subject to further adjustment thereafter from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.  The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges, combinations substitutions, replacements or other similar events.

 

2.3          No Fractional Share.  No fractional Share shall be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and the number of Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share.  If a fractional Share interest arises upon any exercise of the Warrant, the Company shall eliminate such fractional Share interest by paying Holder in cash the amount computed by multiplying the fractional interest by (i) the fair market value (as determined in accordance with Section 1.3 above) of a full Share, less (ii) the then-effective Warrant Price.

 

2.4          Notice/Certificate as to Adjustments.  Upon each adjustment of the Warrant Price and/or number of Shares, the Company or its agent, at the Company’s expense, shall notify Holder in writing within a reasonable time setting forth the adjustments to the Warrant Price and/or number of Shares and facts upon which such adjustment is based.  The Company or its agent shall, upon written request from Holder, furnish Holder with a certificate of an officer of the Company, including computations of such adjustment and the Warrant Price and number of Shares in effect upon the date of such adjustment.

 

 

SECTION 3.         REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.

 

3.1          Representations and Warranties.  The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Holder as follows:

 

(a)           All Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant shall, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and free of any liens and encumbrances except for restrictions on transfer provided for herein or under applicable federal and state securities laws.  The Company covenants that it shall at all times cause to be reserved and kept available out of its authorized and unissued capital stock such number of shares of the Class and other securities as will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of this Warrant.

 

3.2          Notice of Certain Events.  If the Company proposes at any time to:

 

(a)           declare any dividend or distribution upon the outstanding shares of the Class or common stock, whether in cash, property, stock, or other securities and whether or not a regular cash dividend;

 

(b)           offer for subscription or sale pro rata to the holders of the outstanding shares of the Class any additional shares of any class or series of the Company’s stock (other than pursuant to contractual pre-emptive rights);

 

(c)           effect any reclassification, exchange, combination, substitution, reorganization or recapitalization of the outstanding shares of the Class; or

 

(d)           effect an Acquisition or to liquidate, dissolve or wind up;

 

then, in connection with each such event, the Company shall give Holder:

 

(1)           at least seven (7) Business Days prior written notice of the date on which a record will be taken for such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights (and specifying the date on which the holders of outstanding shares of the Class will be entitled thereto) or for determining rights to vote, if any, in respect of the matters referred to in (a) and (b) above; and

 

(2)           in the case of the matters referred to in (c) and (d) above at least seven (7) Business Days prior written notice of the date when the same will take place (and specifying the date on which the holders of outstanding shares of the Class will be entitled to exchange their shares for the securities or other property deliverable upon the occurrence of such event).

 

Reference is made to Section 1.6(c) whereby this Warrant will be deemed to be exercised pursuant to Section 1.2 hereof if the Company does not give written notice to Holder of a Cash/Public Acquisition as required by the terms hereof.  Company will also provide information requested by Holder that is reasonably necessary to enable Holder to comply with Holder’s accounting or reporting requirements.

 

SECTION 4.         REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OF THE HOLDER.

 

The Holder represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

 

4.1          Purchase for Own Account.  This Warrant and the securities to be acquired upon exercise of this Warrant by Holder are being acquired for investment for Holder’s account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the public resale or distribution within the meaning of the Act.  Holder also represents that it has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring this Warrant or the Shares.

 

4.2          Disclosure of Information.  Holder is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has received or has had full access to all the information it considers necessary or appropriate to make an informed investment decision with respect to the acquisition of this Warrant and its

 

 

underlying securities.  Holder further has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of this Warrant and its underlying securities and to obtain additional information (to the extent the Company possessed such information or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense) necessary to verify any information furnished to Holder or to which Holder has access.

 

4.3          Investment Experience.  Holder understands that the purchase of this Warrant and its underlying securities involves substantial risk.  Holder has experience as an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that Holder can bear the economic risk of such Holder’s investment in this Warrant and its underlying securities and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in this Warrant and its underlying securities and/or has a preexisting personal or business relationship with the Company and certain of its officers, directors or controlling persons of a nature and duration that enables Holder to be aware of the character, business acumen and financial circumstances of such persons.

 

4.4          Accredited Investor Status.  Holder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D promulgated under the Act.

 

4.5          The Act.  Holder understands that this Warrant and the Shares issuable upon exercise hereof have not been registered under the Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the Holder’s investment intent as expressed herein.  Holder understands that this Warrant and the Shares issued upon any exercise hereof must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Act and qualified under applicable state securities laws, or unless exemption from such registration and qualification are otherwise available.  Holder is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Act.

 

4.6          No Voting Rights.  Holder, as a Holder of this Warrant, will not have any voting rights until the exercise of this Warrant.

In the event that, upon the Expiration Date, the fair market value of one Share (or other security issuable upon the exercise hereof) as determined in accordance with Section 1.3 above is greater than the Warrant Price in effect on such date, then this Warrant shall automatically be deemed on and as of such date to be exercised pursuant to Section 1.2 above as to all Shares (or such other securities) for which it shall not previously have been exercised, and the Company or its agent shall, within a reasonable time, deliver a certificate representing (or reflect in book entry form with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar) the Shares (or such other securities) issued upon such exercise to Holder.
