December 19, 2011, among Silicon Valley Bank, the Company as Secured Guarantor and the subsidiaries of the Company named therein, as amended (collectively, and as may be further amended and/or modified and in effect from time to time, the
“Loan Agreement”).

 THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES THAT, for good and valuable consideration, SILICON VALLEY BANK (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. Reference is made to Section 5.4 of this Warrant whereby Silicon Valley Bank shall transfer this Warrant
to its parent company, SVB Financial Group. 
 SECTION 1. EXERCISE. 

1.1 Method of Exercise. Holder may at any time and from time to time 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 shares of the Class are 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 the Class 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 shares of the Class are not then 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 shall deliver to Holder a certificate representing 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 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. 

  
 2 

 (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 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, 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 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 additional shares of the Class or other 

  
 3 

 
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, Class and/or number of Shares, the Company, at the
Company’s expense, shall notify Holder in writing within a reasonable time setting forth the adjustments to the Warrant Price, Class and/or number of Shares and facts upon which such adjustment is based. The Company shall, upon written request
from Holder, furnish Holder with a certificate of its Chief Financial Officer, including computations of such adjustment and the Warrant Price, Class and number of Shares in effect upon the date of such adjustment. 

2.5 Special Adjustment for Private Financing. In the event that, on or before the first anniversary of Issue Date hereof, the Company
consummates a sale and issuance for cash of shares of the Class or of any other class or series of its capital stock to one or more investor purchasers in a transaction not registered under the Act (excluding: (i) sales and issuances to
employees, officers, directors and consultants of the Company or any affiliate thereof pursuant to a stock grant to such persons or the exercise by such persons of stock purchase options, which grants or options were granted under an equity
incentive plan approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, and (ii) issuances by the Company as payment of the purchase or acquisition price in a merger or acquisition involving the Company) at an effective price per share (the
“Financing Price”) less than the Warrant Price in effect on and as of the date of such consummation, the Warrant Price shall automatically be adjusted to equal the Financing Price, subject to further adjustment thereafter
from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. 

  
 4 

 2.6 Exchange Cap. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not
issue any Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant if the issuance of such Shares would exceed the aggregate number of shares of the Class which the Company may issue upon exercise of this Warrant without breaching the Company’s obligations
under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) (the number of Shares which may be issued without violating such Rule, the “Exchange Cap”), except that such limitation shall not apply in the event that the Company (A) obtains the
approval of its shareholders as required by such Rule for issuances of Shares in excess of the Exchange Cap, or (B) obtains a written opinion from outside counsel to the Company that such shareholder approval is not required, which opinion
shall be reasonably satisfactory to Holder. 
 SECTION 3. REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY. 

3.1 Representations and Covenants. 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

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

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);

Class; or
