the Company shall supplement or make amendments to the Shelf Registration Statement, if required by the Securities Act or if reasonably requested by each Holder (whether or not required by the form on which the securities are being registered),
including to reflect any specific plan of distribution or method of sale, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have such supplements and amendments declared effective, if required, as soon as practicable after filing. Without

 3 

 Section 3. Registration on Request. 
  
 a. Request. If, at any time after the Filing Date, the Company (i) is not eligible to use Form S-3 or (ii) has failed
to file the Shelf Registration, any Holder or the Holders (individually or collectively, as the case may be, the “Demand Party”) may request in writing that the Company effect the registration under the Securities Act of all
of the Registrable Securities held by such Demand Party. Any such request will specify (i) the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold and (ii) the intended method of disposition thereof. Subject to the other provisions of this
Section 3, the Company shall promptly give written notice of such requested registration to each Holder that is not a Demand Party, and thereupon will, as expeditiously as possible, use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the
registration under the Securities Act of the Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by the Demand Party. 
  
 b. Registration Statement Form. The Company shall select the registration statement form for any registration pursuant to this Section 3;
provided, however, that if any registration requested pursuant to this Section 3 which is proposed by the Company to be effected by the filing of a registration statement on Form S-3 (or any successor or similar short-form
registration statement) shall be in connection with an underwritten public offering, and if the managing underwriter shall advise the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the use of another form of registration statement is of material
importance to the success of such proposed offering, then such registration shall be effected on such other form. 
  
 c. Effective Registration Statement. A registration requested pursuant to this Section 3 will not be deemed to have been effected: 
  
 (i) unless a registration statement with respect thereto
has become effective and remained effective in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement until the earlier of (x) such time as all of
such Registrable Securities cease to be Registrable Securities or (y) 180 days after the effective date of such registration statement, except with respect to any registration statement filed pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, in which
case the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such registration statement effective until such time as all of the Common Shares cease to be Registrable Securities; provided that if the failure of any such registration
statement to become or remain effective in compliance with this Section 3 is due solely to acts or omissions of the applicable Holders, such registration requested pursuant to this Section 3 will be deemed to have been effected;

  
 (ii) if after it has become effective, the
registration statement is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or other governmental agency or authority and does not thereafter become effective; or 
  
 (iii) if the conditions to closing specified in the
underwriting agreement, if any, entered into in connection with such registration are not satisfied or waived, other than by reason of a failure on the part of the Demand Party or other Holders. 
  
 d. Underwritten Offering. If, at the election of the Demand Party, a
requested registration pursuant to this Section 3 is to involve an underwritten offering, the investment banker(s), underwriter(s) and manager(s) for such registration shall be selected by the Company; provided that any such selection shall
be in compliance with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, in connection with any Holder’s participation in such offering. 
  

 4 

 e. Priority in Requested Registrations. If a requested registration pursuant to this Section
3 involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter(s) advises the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the number of securities to be included in such registration would be likely to have an adverse effect on the price, timing
or distribution of the securities to be offered in such offering as contemplated by the Holders (an “Adverse Effect”), then the Company shall include in such registration Registrable Securities requested to be included in
such registration by the Demand Party and all other Holders of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 3 on a pro rata basis based on the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included, to the extent that the
managing underwriter(s) believes that such Registrable Securities can be sold in such offering without having an Adverse Effect. If the managing underwriter of any underwritten offering shall advise the Holders participating in a registration
pursuant to this Section 3 that the Registrable Securities covered by the registration statement cannot be sold in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Demand Party, then the Demand Party shall have the right to notify the
Company that it has determined that the registration statement be abandoned or withdrawn, in which event the Company shall abandon or withdraw such registration statement; provided, however, that the Demand Party shall only be entitled
to require that the Company abandon or withdraw the registration statement on one occasion. 
  
 Section 4. Black-Out Periods. 
  
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall have the right, exercisable from time to time by delivery of a notice authorized by the Board, on not more than two occasions in any 12-month period, to require each Holder
not to sell pursuant to a registration statement or similar document under the Securities Act filed pursuant to this Agreement or to suspend the effectiveness thereof if at the time of the delivery of such notice, the Board has considered a plan to
engage no later than 60 days following the date of such notice in a firm commitment underwritten public offering or if the Board has reasonably and in good faith determined that such registration and offering, continued effectiveness or sale would
materially interfere with any material transaction involving the Company; provided, however, that in no event shall the black-out period extend for more than 60 days on any such occasion. The Company, as soon as practicable, shall (i)
give each Holder prompt written notice in the event that the Company has suspended sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 3, (ii) give each Holder prompt written notice of the completion of such offering or material
transaction and (iii) promptly file any amendment necessary for any registration statement or prospectus of each Holder in connection with the completion of such event. 
  
 Each Holder agrees by acquisition of the Registrable Securities that upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the
happening of any event of the kind described in this Section 3, such Holder will forthwith discontinue its disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement relating to such Registrable Securities until such
Holder’s receipt of the notice of completion of such event. 
  
 Section 5. Registration Procedures. 
  
 a. In
connection with the filing of any registration statement as provided in this Agreement, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably practicable: 
  
 (i) prepare and, in any event within 30 days after the end of the period within which a request for registration may be given to the
Company, file with the Commission the requisite registration statement (including a prospectus therein and any supplement thereto) to effect such registration and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become
effective; provided, however, that before filing such registration statement or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company will furnish to each Holder copies of all such documents proposed to be filed; 
  

 5 

 (ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such
registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness of such registration and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities
covered by such registration statement during the period in which such registration statement is required to be kept effective; 
  
 (iii) furnish to each Holder of the securities being registered, without charge, such number of conformed copies of such registration

registration statements (including each complete prospectus and any summary prospectus) and any other prospectus filed under Rule 424 under the Securities Act in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents,
including documents incorporated by reference, if any, as each Holder may reasonably request, to the extent such other documents are not available on the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System; 
  
 (iv) use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or
qualify all Registrable Securities under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions as each Holder and the underwriters of the securities being registered, if any, shall reasonably request, to keep such registration or
qualification in effect for so long as such registration statement remains in effect, and take any other action which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable each Holder to consummate the disposition in such jurisdiction of the securities
owned by each Holder, except that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to do business as a foreign company or to register as a broker or dealer in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to
qualify but for this Section 5(a)(iv), or to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction, or to be subject to any material tax obligation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject; 
  
 (v) promptly notify each Holder at any time when the
Company becomes aware that a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes 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 not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made, and, at the request of each
Holder, promptly prepare and furnish to each Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such 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 not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made; 
  
 (vi) use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply or
continue to comply in all material respects with the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder so as to enable each Holder to sell its Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act, as further agreed to in Section 9 hereof; 
  

 6 

 (vii) make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an
earnings statement covering the period of at least 12 months, but not more than 18 months, beginning with the first calendar month after the effective date of such registration statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of
Section 11(a) of the Securities Act; 
  
 (viii)
provide a transfer agent and registrar and a CUSIP number for all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement not later than the effective date of such registration statement; 
  
 (ix) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate
with each Holder to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold and not bearing any Securities Act legend; and enable certificates for such Registrable Securities to be issued for
such number of shares and registered in such names as each Holder may reasonably request in writing at least three Business Days prior to any sale of Registrable Securities; 
  
 (x) use its commercially reasonable efforts to list all Registrable Securities covered by such registration
statement on any securities exchange or national quotation system on which any such class of securities is then listed or quoted and cause to be satisfied all requirements and conditions of such securities exchange or national quotation system to
the listing or quoting of such securities that are reasonably within the control of the Company including, without limitation, registering the applicable class of Registrable Securities under the Exchange Act, if appropriate, and using commercially
reasonable efforts to cause such registration to become effective pursuant to the rules of the Commission in accordance with the terms hereof; 
  
 (xi) in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition by each Holder of any Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Holder to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Registrable Securities to be sold and not bearing any
Securities Act legend, and enable certificates for such Registrable Securities to be for such number of shares and registered in such name as each Holder may reasonably request in writing at least three Business Days prior to any sale of Registrable
Securities; 
  
 (xii) notify each Holder,
promptly after it shall receive notice thereof, of the time when such registration statement, or any post-effective amendments to the registration statement, shall have become effective, or a supplement to any prospectus forming part of such
registration statement has been filed or when any document is filed with the Commission which would be incorporated by reference into the prospectus; 
  
 (xiii) notify each Holder of any request by the Commission for the amendment or supplement of such registration statement or prospectus
for additional information; 
  
 (xiv) advise
each Holder, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of (x) the issuance of any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement by the Commission suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement or the
initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose and use all commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement or to obtain its withdrawal if such stop order, injunction
or other order or requirement should be issued, (y) the suspension of the registration of the subject shares of the Registrable Securities in any state or jurisdiction, and (z) the removal of any such stop order, injunction or other order or

Company) to make available the executive officers of the Company to participate with the Holders and any underwriters in “road shows” or other selling efforts that may be reasonably requested by the Holders in connection with the methods
of distribution for the Registrable Securities; and 
  
 (xvi) if such offering is an underwritten offering, enter into such agreements (including an underwriting agreement in such form, scope, and substance as is customary in underwritten offerings) and take all such other appropriate and
reasonable actions requested by Holders (including those reasonably requested by the managing underwriter(s)) in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities, and in such connection, (x) use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain opinions of counsel to the Company and updates thereof (which opinions (in such form, scope and substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the managing underwriters and one common counsel to Holders), addressed to each Holder
and each of the underwriters as to the matters customarily covered in opinions requested in underwritten offerings; (y) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain “comfort” letters and updates thereof from the independent certified
public accountants of the Company (and, if necessary, any other independent certified public accountants of any subsidiary of the Company or of any business acquired by the Company for which financial statements and financial data are, or are
required to be, included in the Registration Statement), addressed to each Holder (unless such accountants shall be prohibited from so addressing such letters by applicable standards of the accounting profession) and each of the underwriters, such

information regarding itself (and any of its Affiliates), the Registrable Securities to be sold, the intended method of distribution of such Registrable Securities and such other information requested by the Company as is necessary or advisable for
inclusion in the registration statement relating to such offering pursuant to the Securities Act. Such writing shall expressly state that it is being furnished to the Company for use in the preparation of a registration statement, preliminary
prospectus, supplementary prospectus, final prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, as the case may be. 
  
 Each Holder agrees by acquisition of the Registrable Securities that (i) upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the

 Section 6. Indemnification. 
  
 a. Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, its partners, officers, directors, trustees, stockholders, employees, agents and investment advisers, and each Person, if any, who
controls each Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, together with the partners, officers, directors, trustees, stockholders, employees, agents and investment advisers of such controlling person, against any losses,
claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees), joint or several, to which each Holder or any such indemnitees may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any federal or
state law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered and sold under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein,
or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a 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, or any violation of the Securities Act or state securities laws or rules thereunder by the Company relating to any action or inaction by the Company in connection with such registration, and the Company will
reimburse each Holder for any reasonable legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, liability, action or proceedings; provided, however, that the Company
shall not be liable in any such case to a Holder to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged statement or omission
or alleged omission made in such registration statement, any such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such
Holder specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation thereof; and provided, further, that the Company shall not be liable to such Holder or any other Person who controls each Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act
or the Exchange Act in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of such Person’s or any underwriter’s failure to send or give a copy of the
final prospectus or supplement to the Persons asserting an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of Registrable Securities to such Person if such statement or
omission was corrected in such final prospectus or supplement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of each Holder or any such controlling Person and shall survive the transfer of
such securities by each Holder. 
  
 b. Indemnification by each
Holder. Each Holder agrees to indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in Section 6(a)) the Company, each member of the Board, each officer, employee, agent and investment adviser of the Company
and each other Person, if any, who controls any of the foregoing within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, with respect to any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in or omission or alleged omission to
state a material fact from such registration statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, if such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission was made in reliance 

  

 9 

 
upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder regarding such Holder giving such indemnification specifically
stating that it is for use in the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation
made by or on behalf of the Company or any such Board member, officer, employee, agent, investment adviser or controlling Person and shall survive the transfer of such securities by any Holder. The obligation of a Holder to indemnify will be several
and not joint, among the Holders and the liability of each such Holder of Registrable Securities will be in proportion to and limited in all events to the net amount received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such
registration statement. 
  
 c. Notices of Claims, etc.
Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 6, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof
is to be made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to the latter of the commencement of such action; provided, however, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the
indemnifying party of its obligations under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action is brought against an
indemnified party, unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to assume the
defense thereof, for itself, if applicable, together with any other indemnified party similarly notified, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party
shall not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the latter in connection with the defense thereof. 
  
 d. Indemnification Payments. To the extent that the indemnifying party does not assume the defense of an action brought against the indemnified
party as provided in Section 6(c), the indemnified party (or parties if there is more than one) shall be entitled to the reasonable legal expenses of one common counsel for the indemnified party (or parties). In such event, however, the
indemnifying party will not be liable for any settlement effected without the written consent of such indemnifying party. The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the
course of an investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred. The indemnifying party shall not settle any claim without the consent of the indemnified party unless such settlement involves a
complete release of such indemnified party without any admission of liability by the indemnified party. 
  
 e. Contribution. If, for any reason, the foregoing indemnity is unavailable, or is insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party, then the
indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of the expense, loss, damage or liability, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the
one hand and the indemnified party on the other (determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or the
indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission) or (ii) if the allocation provided by subclause (i) above is not permitted by
applicable law or provides a lesser sum to the indemnified party than the amount hereinafter calculated, in the proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, but also the
relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. No indemnified party guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any indemnifying party who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation, and 

  

 10 

 
the liability for contribution of each Holder will be in proportion to and limited in all events to the net amount received by each Holder from the sale of
Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement. 
  
 Section 7. Market Stand-Off Agreement. Each Holder hereby agrees that it shall not, to the extent requested by the Company or an underwriter of securities of the Company, directly or indirectly sell, offer to sell (including without
limitation any short sale), grant any option or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Registrable Securities (other than to donees or partners of each Holder who agree to be similarly bound) within seven days prior to and for up to 90 days following
the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act (except the Shelf Registration Statement filed for the benefit of the Holders pursuant to this Agreement) or the date of an underwriting agreement with
respect to an underwritten public offering of the Company’s securities (the “Stand-Off Period”); provided, however, that: 
  

a. with respect to the Stand-Off Period, such agreement shall not be applicable to the Registrable Securities to be sold on each Holder’s behalf
to the public in an underwritten offering pursuant to such registration statement; 
  
 b. all executive officers and directors of the Company then holding Common Stock of the Company shall enter into similar agreements; and 
  
 c. each Holder shall be allowed any concession or proportionate release allowed to any (i) officer or (ii) director of the
Company that entered into similar agreements. 
  
 In order to
enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company shall have the right to place restrictive legends on the certificates representing the Registrable Securities subject to this Section 7 and to impose stop transfer instructions with respect to the
Registrable Securities and such other Common Shares of each Holder (and the Registrable Securities or securities of every other person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end of such period. 
  
 Once a registration statement covering the Registrable Securities is
effective, the provisions of this Section 7 shall be of no further force and effect. 
  
 Section 8. Lock-Up Agreement. The Company agrees (except pursuant to registration statements on Forms S-4 or S-8), if timely requested in writing by the underwriters in a public offering of Registrable
Securities, not to (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, hedge, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Common Stock or any other equity security of
the Company (or any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security of the Company) or warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or any other equity security of the Company (or any security convertible into
or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security of the Company), or file or cause to be declared effective a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to the offer and sale of any shares of Common Stock or any other equity
security of the Company (or any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security of the Company), or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic
consequences of ownership of Common Stock or any other equity security of the Company (or any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security of the Company), or warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or
any other equity security of the Company (or any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security of the Company), whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise,
during the time period beginning seven days prior to the effective date of the registration statement for Registrable Securities or, in the case of a 

  

 11 

 
Shelf Registration Statement, the date of an underwriting agreement and ending on the date thereafter reasonably requested by the underwriter (not to exceed
90 days thereafter), without the prior written consent of the underwriters. 
  
 Section 9. Covenants Relating To Rule 144. At such times as the Company is obligated to file reports in compliance with either Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company covenants that it will file
any reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and that it will take such further action as each Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable each Holder to sell
Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (i) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time or (ii) any similar rule or regulation
hereafter adopted by the Commission. Upon the request of each Holder, the Company will deliver to each Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. 
  
 Section 10. Miscellaneous. 
  

a. Termination; Survival. The rights of each Holder under this Agreement shall terminate upon the date that all of the Registrable Securities
held by each Holder may be sold during any three-month period in a single transaction or series of transactions without volume limitations under Rule 144 (or any successor provision) under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
obligations of the parties under Section 6 and paragraphs (d), (e) and (g) of this Section 10 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 
  
 b. Expenses. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration statement prepared and/or filed
pursuant to this Agreement (including any prospectus or prospectus supplement) shall be borne by the Company, whether or not any registration statement related thereto becomes effective. 
  
 c. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and
the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more such counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to each of the other parties.

jurisdiction of the State of New York. The parties hereby waive and agree not to assert in any litigation concerning this Agreement the doctrine of forum non conveniens.

 13 

 
any particular provision of this Agreement, and Section, paragraph or other references are to the Sections, paragraphs, or other references to this Agreement
unless otherwise specified, (iii) the word “including” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall mean “including, without limitation,” unless the context otherwise requires or unless otherwise specified, (iv)

provisions.

parties recognize that various other rights rendered under this Agreement are unique and, accordingly, the parties shall, in addition to such other remedies as may be available to them at law or in equity, have the right to enforce the rights under

	Title:2005 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

 Exhibit 4.2 
  

TRANSWITCH CORPORATION 
  
 2005 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN 
  
 Article 1 — Purpose. 
  
 This 2005 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) is intended to encourage stock ownership by all Eligible Employees (as defined in Article 3) of TranSwitch
Corporation (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, and its participating subsidiaries (as defined in Article 17) so that they may share in the growth of the Company by acquiring or increasing their proprietary interest in the Company.
The Plan is designed to encourage Eligible Employees to remain in the employ of the Company and its participating subsidiaries. The Plan is intended to constitute an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423(b) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). 
  
 Article 2 — Administration of the Plan. 
  
 The Plan
may be administered by a committee appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Committee”). The Committee shall consist of not less than two members of the Company’s Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may from
time to time remove members from, or add members to, the Committee. Vacancies on the Committee, howsoever caused, shall be filled by the Board of Directors. The Committee may select one of its members as Chairman, and shall hold meetings at such
times and places as it may determine. Acts by a majority of the Committee, or acts reduced to or approved in writing by a majority of the members of the Committee, shall be the valid acts of the Committee. 
  
 The interpretation and construction by the Committee of any provisions of the Plan or of any
option granted under it shall be final, unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors. The Committee may from time to time adopt such rules and regulations for carrying out the Plan as it may deem best, provided that any such rules and
regulations shall be applied on a uniform basis to all employees under the Plan. No member of the Board of Directors or the Committee shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any option granted
under it. 
  
 In the event the Board of Directors fails to appoint or refrains
from appointing a Committee, the Board of Directors shall have all power and authority to administer the Plan. In such event, the word “Committee” wherever used herein shall be deemed to mean the Board of Directors. 
  
 Article 3 — Eligible Employees. 
  
 All employees of the Company or any of its participating subsidiaries whose customary
employment is more than 20 hours per week and for more than five months in any calendar year and who have completed at least one (1) year of employment (each an “Eligible Employee”) shall be eligible to receive options under the Plan to
purchase common stock of the Company, and all Eligible Employees shall have the same rights and privileges hereunder. Persons who are Eligible Employees on the first business day of any Payment Period (as defined in Article 5) shall receive their
options as of such day. Persons who become Eligible Employees after any date on which options are granted under the Plan shall be granted options on the first day of the next succeeding Payment Period on which options are granted to Eligible
Employees under the Plan. In no event, however, may an employee be granted an option if such employee, immediately after the option was granted, would be treated as owning stock possessing five percent or more of the total combined voting power or
value of all classes of stock of the Company or of any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation, as the terms “parent corporation” and “subsidiary corporation” are defined in Section 424(e) and (f) of the Code. For purposes
of determining stock ownership under this paragraph, the stock attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code shall apply, and stock which the employee may purchase under outstanding options shall be treated as stock owned by the employee.

 Article 4 — Stock Subject to the Plan. 
  
 The stock subject to the options under the Plan shall be shares of the Company’s authorized but unissued common stock, par value $.001
per share (the “Common Stock”), or shares of Common Stock reacquired by the Company, including shares purchased in the open market. The aggregate number of shares which may be issued pursuant to the Plan is 1,000,000, subject to adjustment
as provided in Article 12. If any option granted under the Plan shall expire or terminate for any reason without having been exercised in full or shall cease for any reason to be exercisable in whole or in part, the unpurchased shares subject
thereto shall again be available under the Plan. 
  
 Article 5 —
Payment Period and Stock Options. 
  
 The first Payment Period during
which Eligible Employee’s payroll deductions will be accumulated under the Plan shall commence on July 1, 2005 and shall end on December 31, 2005. For the remainder of the duration of the Plan, Payment Periods shall consist of the six-month
periods commencing on January 1 and ending on June 30 and commencing on July 1 and ending on December 31 of each calendar year. 
  
 Twice each year, on the first business day of each Payment Period, the Company will grant to each Eligible Employee who is then a participant in the Plan an option to
purchase on the last day of such Payment Period, at the Option Price hereinafter provided for, a maximum of 1,000 shares, on condition that such employee remains eligible to participate in the Plan throughout the remainder of such Payment Period.
The participant shall be entitled to exercise the option so granted only to the extent of the participant’s accumulated payroll deductions on the last day of such Payment Period. If the participant’s accumulated payroll deductions on the
last day of the Payment Period would enable the participant to purchase more than 1,000 shares except for the 1,000-share limitation, the excess of the amount of the accumulated payroll deductions over the aggregate purchase price of the 1,000
shares shall be promptly refunded to the participant by the Company. In no event will interest accrue on payroll deductions or any amount refunded to the participant. The Option Price per share for each Payment Period shall be [the lesser of (i) 85%
of the average market price of the Common Stock on the first business day of the Payment Period and (ii) 85% of the average market price of the Common Stock on the last business day of the Payment Period, in either event rounded up to avoid
fractions of a dollar other than 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4. The foregoing limitation on the number of shares subject to option and the Option Price shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Article 12. 
  
 For purposes of the Plan, the term “average market price” on any date means (i) the
average (on that date) of the high and low prices of the Common Stock on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is traded, if the Common Stock is then traded on a national securities exchange; or (ii) the last reported
sale price (on that date) of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market, if the Common Stock is not then traded on a national securities exchange; or (iii) the average of the closing bid and asked prices last quoted (on that date) by an established
quotation service for over-the-counter securities, if the Common Stock is not reported on the Nasdaq Stock Market; or (iv) if the Common Stock is not publicly traded, the fair market value of the Common Stock as determined by the Committee after
taking into consideration all factors which it deems appropriate, including, without limitation, recent sale and offer prices of the Common Stock in private transactions negotiated at arm’s length. 
  
 For purposes of the Plan, the term “business day” means a day on which there is
trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market or the aforementioned national securities exchange, whichever is applicable pursuant to the preceding paragraph; and if neither is applicable, a day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday in the State of
Connecticut. 
  
 No employee shall be granted an option which permits the
employee’s right to purchase stock under the Plan, and under all other Section 423(b) employee stock purchase plans of the Company and any parent or subsidiary corporations, to accrue at a rate which exceeds $25,000 of fair market value of such
stock (determined on the date or dates that options on such stock were granted) for each calendar year in which such option is outstanding at any time. The purpose of the limitation in the preceding sentence is to comply with Section 423(b)(8) of
the Code. If the participant’s accumulated payroll deductions on the last day of the Payment Period would otherwise enable the participant to purchase Common Stock in excess of the Section 423(b)(8) limitation described in this paragraph, the
excess of the amount of the accumulated payroll deductions over the aggregate purchase price of the shares actually purchased shall be promptly refunded to the participant by the Company, without interest. 

 Article 6 — Exercise of Option. 
  
 Each Eligible Employee who continues to be a participant in the Plan on the last day of a Payment Period shall be deemed to have exercised
his or her option on such date and shall be deemed to have purchased from the Company such number of full shares of Common Stock reserved for the purpose of the Plan as the participant’s accumulated payroll deductions on such date will pay for
at the Option Price, subject to the 1,000-share limit of the option and the Section 423(b)(8) limitation described in Article 5. If the individual is not a participant on the last day of a Payment Period, then he or she shall not be entitled to
exercise his or her option. Only full shares of Common Stock may be purchased under the Plan. Unused payroll deductions remaining in a participant’s account at the end of a Payment Period by reason of the inability to purchase a fractional
share shall be promptly refunded to the participant by the Company without interest. 
  
 Article 7 — Authorization for Entering the Plan. 
  
 An Eligible Employee may elect to enter the Plan by filling out, signing and delivering, in manual or electronic format, to the Company an authorization: 
  
 A. Stating the whole percentage to be deducted regularly from the employee’s pay; 
  
 B. Authorizing the purchase of stock for the employee in each Payment Period in accordance
with the terms of the Plan; and 
  
 C. Specifying the exact name or names in which
stock purchased for the employee is to be issued as provided under Article 11 hereof. 
  
 Such authorization must be received by the Company at least ten days before the first day of the next succeeding Payment Period and shall take effect only if the employee is an Eligible Employee on the first business day of such Payment
Period. 
  
 Unless a participant files a new authorization or withdraws from the
Plan, the deductions and purchases under the authorization the participant has on file under the Plan will continue from one Payment Period to succeeding Payment Periods as long as the Plan remains in effect. 
  
 The Company will accumulate and hold for each participant’s account the amounts deducted
from his or her pay. No interest will be paid on these amounts. 
  
 Article
8 — Maximum Amount of Payroll Deductions. 
  
 An employee may
authorize payroll deductions in an amount (expressed as a whole percentage) not less than one percent (1%) but not more than five percent (5%) of the employee’s total cash compensation, including base pay or salary and any overtime, or
commissions. Total cash compensation will exclude bonus payments or other incentive compensation as determined in the Company’s sole discretion. 
  
 Article 9 — Change in Payroll Deductions. 
  
 Deductions may not be increased or decreased during a Payment Period. However, a participant may withdraw in full from the Plan. 
  
 Article 10 — Withdrawal from the Plan. 
  
 An employee may withdraw from the Plan (in whole but not in part) at any time by delivering
a withdrawal notice to the Company no later than ten business days prior to the last day of the Payment Period, in which case the Company will promptly refund the entire balance of the employee’s deductions not previously used to purchase stock
under the Plan. 

 To re-enter the Plan, an Eligible Employee who has previously withdrawn must file a new authorization at least ten
business days before the first day of the next Payment Period in which he or she wishes to participate. The Eligible Employee’s re-entry into the Plan becomes effective at the beginning of such Payment Period, provided that he or she is an
Eligible Employee on the first business day of the Payment Period. 
  
 Article 11 — Issuance of Stock. 
  
 Certificates for
stock issued to participants shall be delivered or electronic transfer will be effected as soon as practicable after each Payment Period by the Company’s transfer agent. 
  
 Stock purchased under the Plan shall be issued only in the name of the participant, or if the participant’s authorization so specifies,
in the name of the participant and another person of legal age as joint tenants with rights of survivorship. 
  
 Article 12 — Adjustments. 
  
 Upon the happening of any of the following described events, a participant’s rights under options granted under the Plan shall be adjusted as hereinafter provided: 
  
 A. In the event that the shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided or combined into a greater or smaller number of shares or if, upon a
reorganization, split-up, liquidation, recapitalization or the like of the Company, the shares of Common Stock shall be exchanged for other securities of the Company, each participant shall be entitled, subject to the conditions herein stated, to
purchase such number of shares of Common Stock or amount of other securities of the Company as were exchangeable for the number of shares of Common Stock that such participant would have been entitled to purchase except for such action, and
appropriate adjustments shall be made in the purchase price per share to reflect such subdivision, combination or exchange; and 
  
 B. In the event the Company shall issue any of its shares as a stock dividend upon or with respect to the shares of stock of the class which shall at the time be subject
to option hereunder, each participant upon exercising such an option shall be entitled to receive (for the purchase price paid upon such exercise) the shares as to which the participant is exercising his or her option and, in addition thereto (at no
additional cost), such number of shares of the class or classes in which such stock dividend or dividends were declared or paid, and such amount of cash in lieu of fractional shares, as is equal to the number of shares thereof and the amount of cash
in lieu of fractional shares, respectively, which the participant would have received if the participant had been the holder of the shares as to which the participant is exercising his or her option at all times between the date of the granting of
such option and the date of its exercise. 
  
 Upon the happening of any of the
foregoing events, the class and aggregate number of shares set forth in Article 4 hereof which are subject to options which have been or may be granted under the Plan and the limitations set forth in the second paragraph of Article 5 shall also be
appropriately adjusted to reflect the events specified in paragraphs A. and B. above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any adjustments made pursuant to paragraphs A. or B. shall be made only after the Committee, based on advice of counsel for the
Company, determines whether such adjustments would constitute a “modification” (as that term is defined in Section 424 of the Code and other interpretative guidance from the Internal Revenue Service). If the Committee determines that such
adjustments would constitute a modification, it may refrain from making such adjustments. 
  
 If the Company is to be consolidated with or acquired by another entity in a merger, a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or otherwise (an “Acquisition”), the Committee or
the board of directors of any entity assuming the obligations of the Company hereunder (the “Successor Board”) shall, with respect to options then outstanding under the Plan, either (i) make appropriate provision for the
continuation of such options by arranging for the substitution on an equitable basis for the shares then subject to such options either (a) the consideration payable with respect to the outstanding shares of the Common Stock in connection with the
Acquisition, (b) shares of stock of the successor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary of such corporation, or (c) such other securities as the Successor Board deems appropriate, the fair market value of which shall not materially exceed the fair
market value of the shares of Common Stock subject to such options immediately preceding the Acquisition; or (ii) terminate each participant’s options in exchange for a cash payment equal to the excess of (a) the fair market value on the date
of 

 
the Acquisition, of the number of shares of Common Stock that the participant’s accumulated payroll deductions as of the date of the Acquisition could
purchase, at an option price determined with reference only to the first business day of the applicable Payment Period and subject to the 1,000 share limit, Code Section 423(b)(8) and fractional-share limitations on the amount of stock a participant
would be entitled to purchase, over (b) the result of multiplying such number of shares by such option price. 
  
 The Committee or Successor Board shall determine the adjustments to be made under this Article 12, and its determination shall be conclusive. 
  
 Article 13 — No Transfer or Assignment of Employee’s Rights. 
  
 An employee’s rights under the Plan are the employee’s alone and may not be
transferred or assigned to, or availed of by, any other person other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any option granted under the Plan to an employee may be exercised, during the employee’s lifetime, only by the employee.

  
 Article 14 — Termination of Employee’s Rights.

  
 Whenever a participant ceases to be an Eligible Employee because of
retirement, voluntary or involuntary termination, resignation, layoff, discharge, death or for any other reason, his or her rights under the Plan shall immediately terminate, and the Company shall promptly refund, without interest, the entire
balance of his or her payroll deduction account under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, eligible employment shall be treated as continuing intact while a participant is on military leave, sick leave or other bona fide leave of absence, for up
to 90 days, or for so long as the participant’s right to re-employment is guaranteed either by statute or by contract, if longer than 90 days. 
  
 If a participant’s payroll deductions are interrupted by any legal process, a withdrawal notice will be considered as having been received from the participant on
the day the interruption occurs. 
  
 Nothing in the Plan, or the grant of a option
hereunder, shall confer upon a participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or shall affect the right of the Company to terminate the employment of the participant, with or without cause. 
  
 Article 15 — Termination and Amendments to Plan. 
  
 Unless terminated sooner as provided below, the Plan shall terminate on December 31, 2014.
The Plan may be terminated at any time by the Company’s Board of Directors but such termination shall not affect options then outstanding under the Plan. It will terminate in any case when all or substantially all of the unissued shares of
stock reserved for the purposes of the Plan have been purchased. If at any time shares of stock reserved for the purpose of the Plan remain available for purchase but not in sufficient number to satisfy all then unfilled purchase requirements, the
available shares shall be apportioned among participants in proportion to the amount of payroll deductions accumulated on behalf of each participant that would otherwise be used to purchase stock, and the Plan shall terminate. Upon such termination
or any other termination of the Plan, all payroll deductions not used to purchase stock will be refunded, without interest. 
  
 The Committee or the Board of Directors may from time to time adopt amendments to the Plan provided that, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, no
amendment may (i) increase the number of shares that may be issued under the Plan; (ii) change the class of employees eligible to receive options under the Plan, if such action would be treated as the adoption of a new plan for purposes of Section
423(b) of the Code; or (iii) cause Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to become inapplicable to the Plan. 
  
 Article 16 — Limits on Sale of Stock Purchased under the Plan. 
  
 The Plan is intended to provide shares of Common Stock for investment and not for resale. The Company does not, however, intend to restrict
or influence any employee in the conduct of his or her own affairs. An employee may, therefore, sell stock purchased under the Plan at any time the employee chooses, subject to compliance with any applicable federal or state securities laws and
subject to any restrictions imposed under Article 21 to ensure that tax 

 
withholding obligations are satisfied. THE EMPLOYEE ASSUMES THE RISK OF ANY MARKET FLUCTUATIONS IN THE PRICE OF THE STOCK. 
  
 Article 17 — Participating Subsidiaries. 
  
 The term “participating subsidiary” shall mean any present or future subsidiary of
the Company, as that term is defined in Section 424(f) of the Code, which is designated from time to time by the Board of Directors to participate in the Plan. The Board of Directors shall have the power to make such designation before or after the
Plan is approved by the stockholders. 
  
 Article 18 — Optionees Not
Stockholders. 
  
 Neither the granting of an option to an employee nor
the deductions from his or her pay shall constitute such employee a stockholder of the shares covered by an option until such shares have been actually purchased by the employee. 
  
 Article 19 — Application of Funds. 
  
 The proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Common Stock pursuant to options granted under the Plan will be used for general
corporate purposes. 
  
 Article 20 — Notice to Company of Disqualifying
Disposition. 
  
 By electing to participate in the Plan, each participant
agrees to notify the Company in writing immediately after the participant transfers Common Stock acquired under the Plan, if such transfer occurs within two years after the first business day of the Payment Period in which such Common Stock was
acquired. Each participant further agrees to provide any information about such a transfer as may be requested by the Company or any subsidiary corporation in order to assist it in complying with the tax laws. Such dispositions generally are treated
as “disqualifying dispositions” under Sections 421 and 424 of the Code, which have certain tax consequences to participants and to the Company and its participating subsidiaries. 
  
 Article 21 —Withholding of Additional Income Taxes. 
  
 By electing to participate in the Plan, each participant acknowledges that the Company and
its participating subsidiaries are required to withhold taxes with respect to the amounts deducted from the participant’s compensation and accumulated for the benefit of the participant under the Plan, and each participant agrees that the
Company and its participating subsidiaries may deduct additional amounts from the participant’s compensation, when amounts are added to the participant’s account, used to purchase Common Stock or refunded, in order to satisfy such
withholding obligations. Each participant further acknowledges that when Common Stock is purchased under the Plan the Company and its participating subsidiaries may be required to withhold taxes with respect to all or a portion of the difference
between the fair market value of the Common Stock purchased and its purchase price, and each participant agrees that such taxes may be withheld from compensation otherwise payable to such participant. It is intended that tax withholding will be
accomplished in such a manner that the full amount of payroll deductions elected by the participant under Article 7 will be used to purchase Common Stock. However, if amounts sufficient to satisfy applicable tax withholding obligations have not been
withheld from compensation otherwise payable to any participant, then, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Company may withhold such taxes from the participant’s accumulated payroll deductions and apply the net amount to the
purchase of Common Stock, unless the participant pays to the Company, prior to the exercise date, an amount sufficient to satisfy such withholding obligations. Each participant further acknowledges that the Company and its participating subsidiaries
may be required to withhold taxes in connection with the disposition of stock acquired under the Plan and agrees that the Company or any participating subsidiary may take whatever action it considers appropriate to satisfy such withholding
requirements, including deducting from compensation otherwise payable to such participant an amount sufficient to satisfy such withholding requirements or conditioning any disposition of Common Stock by the participant upon the payment to the
Company or such subsidiary of an amount sufficient to satisfy such withholding requirements. 

 Article 22 — Governmental Regulations. 
  
 The Company’s obligation to sell and deliver shares of Common Stock under the Plan is subject to the approval of any governmental
authority required in connection with the authorization, issuance or sale of such shares. 
  
 Government regulations may impose reporting or other obligations on the Company with respect to the Plan. For example, the Company may be required to identify shares of Common Stock issued under the Plan on its stock
ownership records and send tax information statements to employees and former employees who transfer title to such shares. 
  
 Article 23 — Governing Law. 
  
 The validity and construction of the Plan shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.

  
 Article 24 — Approval of Board of Directors and Stockholders of the
Company. 
  
 The Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors on March 17,
2005 and was approved by the stockholders of the Company as of May 19, 2005.
