used herein without definition shall have the respective meanings specified in the Merger Agreement); 
 WHEREAS, each
Stockholder beneficially owns the number of shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) set forth opposite the name of such Stockholder on Schedule A hereto (such shares of Common Stock,
together with any other shares of Common Stock as to which such Stockholder acquires beneficial ownership after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time, including any shares of Common Stock acquired by means of purchase, dividend, stock
split or distribution, or issued upon the exercise of any warrants or options, or the conversion of any convertible securities or otherwise, being collectively referred to herein as such Stockholder’s “Covered Shares”);

 WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has, prior to the execution of this Agreement, unanimously approved, for
purposes of Section 203 of the DGCL, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; and 
 WHEREAS, as a
condition to the willingness of Parent and Merger Sub to enter into the Merger Agreement and as an inducement and in consideration therefor, the Stockholders have agreed to enter into this Agreement; 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein and in the Merger Agreement,
and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 SECTION 1. Representations and Warranties

and its Covered Shares, as follows:

constitutes a valid and binding obligation of such Stockholder enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or
affecting creditors’ rights generally and general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). 

(d) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Stockholder, the performance by such Stockholder of such
Stockholder’s obligations hereunder nor the consummation by such Stockholder of the transactions contemplated hereby will (i) result in a material violation or breach of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a
default under, or conflict with (A) to the extent applicable, any provisions of the organizational documents of such Stockholder or (B) any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, lease, license, permit or other instrument or

federal, state, local or foreign statute, law, ordinance, rule, regulation, order, judgment, decree or legal requirement applicable to such Stockholder or any of such Stockholder’s Covered Shares (other than filings required pursuant to
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules promulgated thereunder). 
 (e) No broker, investment banker,
financial advisor or other Person is entitled to any broker’s, finder’s, financial advisor’s or other similar fee or commission in

the Company and as disclosed pursuant to the Merger Agreement). 
 (f) The Stockholder has received and reviewed a copy of the
Merger Agreement. The Stockholder understands and acknowledges that Parent and Merger Sub are entering into the Merger Agreement in reliance upon the Stockholder’s execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement.

corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, and each of Parent and Merger Sub has all requisite corporate power and corporate authority to execute and deliver this
Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, and has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement. 

(b) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of Parent and Merger Sub and constitutes a valid and binding
obligation of Parent and Merger Sub enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights

 (c) Neither the
execution and delivery of this Agreement by Parent and Merger Sub, the performance by Parent and Merger Sub of their obligations hereunder nor the consummation by Parent and Merger Sub of the transactions contemplated hereby will (i) result in
a material violation or breach of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, or conflict with (A) any provisions of the organizational documents of Parent or Merger Sub or (B) any note, bond,
mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, lease, license, permit or other instrument or obligation of any kind to which such Parent or Merger Sub is a party or by which Parent or Merger Sub or their assets are bound, or (ii) violate, or require

 SECTION 3. Tender of the Covered Shares. Each Stockholder hereby agrees that it shall
(i) tender its Covered Shares or cause to be tendered (and deliver any certificates evidencing such Covered Shares or an appropriate affidavit of lost certificate with respect thereto to the extent any of such certificates have been lost,
misplaced or destroyed), into the Offer promptly following the date the Offer is commenced, and in any event no later than ten (10) business days after the commencement of the Offer, free and clear of all Encumbrances and (ii) not withdraw
or cause to be withdrawn, its Covered Shares from the Offer at any time. If a Stockholder acquires Covered Shares after the date hereof, such Stockholder shall (A) tender, or cause to be tendered, such Covered Shares into the Offer on or before

 SECTION 4. Option. 

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, each Stockholder hereby grants to Parent a conditional option (the
“Option”) to purchase all of the right, title and interest of such Stockholder in and to such Stockholder’s Covered Shares at a price equal to the Offer Price. Parent may exercise an Option in whole, but not in part, with respect to
any Covered Shares not acquired by Merger Sub pursuant to the Offer if, but only if, (i) Merger Sub has acquired shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Offer and (ii) such Stockholder shall have failed to tender into the Offer such Covered
Shares or shall have withdrawn the tender of such Covered Shares into the Offer. Parent may exercise an Option at any time within the ten (10) days following the date when such Option first becomes exercisable. 

(b) In the event that Parent is entitled to and wishes to exercise an Option, Parent shall send a written notice to the relevant
Stockholder(s) specifying the place and the date for the closing of such purchase, which date shall be not more than ten (10) days after the date of such notice; provided that in the event that prior notification to, or approval of, any
Governmental Authority is required in connection with the exercise of an Option or there shall be in effect any preliminary or final injunction or other order issued by any Governmental Authority prohibiting the exercise of an Option, the period of
time during which the date of the closing may be fixed shall be extended until the tenth (10th) day following the last date on which all required approvals shall have been obtained, all required waiting periods shall have expired or been
terminated and any such prohibition shall have been vacated, terminated or waived. 
 (c) At the closing of the purchase of a
Stockholder’s Covered Shares pursuant to exercise of an Option, simultaneously with the payment by the Parent of the purchase price for a Stockholder’s Covered Shares, such Stockholder shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Merger
Sub certificates representing such Covered Shares duly endorsed to the Parent or accompanied by stock powers or other transfer documents duly executed by the Company in blank, together with any necessary stock transfer stamps properly affixed, free
and clear of all Encumbrances. 
 (d) Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold
from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Section 
  

 4 

 
5 to a holder of Covered Shares such amounts as are required to be withheld under the Code, or any applicable provision of state, local or foreign tax law. To the extent that amounts are so
withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Covered Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. 

SECTION 5. Transfer of the Covered Shares; Other Actions. Prior to the termination of this Agreement, except as otherwise provided
herein, each Stockholder shall not: (i) transfer, assign, sell, gift-over, pledge, grant any Lien with respect to or otherwise dispose (whether by sale, merger, consolidation, liquidation, dissolution, dividend, distribution or otherwise) of,
or consent to any of the foregoing (each such action, a “Transfer”), any Covered Shares or any right or interest therein; (ii) enter into any contract, option or other agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to any
Transfer of Covered Shares; (iii) grant any proxy or power-of-attorney with respect to any of the Covered Shares; (iv) deposit any of the Covered Shares into a voting trust, or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to
any of the Covered Shares; or (v) take any other action that would restrict, limit or interfere in any material respect with the performance of such Stockholder’s obligations hereunder or the transactions contemplated hereby.

foundation established for the benefit of such Stockholder and/or for the benefit of one or more members of such Stockholder’s immediate family or established for charitable purposes, or upon the death of such Stockholder, or (B) if such
Stockholder is a partnership, limited liability company or trust, to one or more partners or members of such Stockholder or to an affiliated corporation under common control with such Stockholder or to any trustee or beneficiary of the trust,
provided that any Transfer permitted pursuant to (A) or (B) above shall be permitted only if, as a precondition to such transfer, the transferee of such Covered Shares agrees in writing with Parent and Merger Sub to be bound by the
terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 6. Covenant to Vote; Irrevocable Proxy. 

(a) Each Stockholder hereby agrees to vote all Shares as to which the Stockholder has sole or shared voting power (such Stockholder’s

 5

 (b) In furtherance of the agreements herein, each Stockholder hereby irrevocably grants to, and appoints, until the
termination of this Agreement, Parent and any person or persons designated in writing by Parent, and each of them individually, such Stockholder’s proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution), for and in the name, place and
stead of such Stockholder, to vote all its Vote Shares, or grant a consent or approval in respect of such Vote Shares, or execute and deliver a proxy to vote such Vote Shares, on the matters and in the manner specified in Section 6(a) of this
Agreement (but not on any other matters).

consideration of, the execution of the Merger Agreement by Parent, and that such irrevocable proxy is given to secure the performance of the duties of such Stockholder under this Agreement. Each Stockholder hereby further affirms that the
irrevocable proxy is coupled with an interest and may under no circumstances be revoked. Such Stockholder hereby ratifies and confirms all that such irrevocable proxy may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. Such irrevocable proxy is

 6

required under applicable law, approve the Merger and adopt the Merger Agreement (a “Renewed Recommendation”), the provisions of Sections 3 and 6 of this Agreement shall thereafter remain in full force and effect for so long as such

SECTION 13. Stockholder Capacity. It is understood that the Stockholder enters into this Agreement solely in such
Stockholder’s capacity as a stockholder of the Company. Nothing herein shall be construed as preventing or limiting a Stockholder, or a director, officer or employee of a Stockholder or Affiliate of a Stockholder, who is an officer or director
of the Company from taking (or omitting to take) any action in his capacity as a director or officer of the Company or otherwise fulfilling the obligations of such office (including the performance of obligations required by the fiduciary
obligations of such Stockholder, or director, officer or employee of a Stockholder or Affiliate of a Stockholder, acting solely in his or her capacity as an officer or director of the Company), but nothing in this Section 13 is intended to
