Transaction to which this Confirmation relates. This Confirmation (notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein) shall be subject to an agreement in the form of the 1992 ISDA Master Agreement (Multicurrency—Cross Border) (the
“Master Agreement”) as if we had executed an agreement in such form (but without any Schedule and with the elections specified in the “ISDA Master Agreement” Section of this Confirmation) on the Trade Date of the
Transaction. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of that agreement and this Confirmation, this Confirmation will prevail for the purpose of the Transaction. The parties hereby agree that the Transaction evidenced by this

 3. Early Termination: 
 MLI may elect to early terminate this Transaction in whole or in part by delivering written notice (an “Early Termination Notice”)
to Party B specifying (i) the number of Shares subject to such early termination and (ii) the related Settlement Date. MLI’s payment obligation in respect of this Transaction shall be satisfied by the delivery of a number of Shares
equal to the number of Shares specified in such Early Termination Notice. The number of Shares specified as being due in respect of any early termination pursuant to this section will be deliverable on the third Clearance System Business Day
following the Settlement Date specified in the Early Termination Notice, subject to postponement and alternative cash settlement as described below opposite the caption “Regulatory Compliance”. An early termination of this Transaction
pursuant to this section shall be effective only with respect to the number of Shares specified in the Early Termination Notice and the Transaction otherwise shall remain in full force and effect. 
 Party B may request in writing that MLI exercise its right to early terminate the Transaction in whole or in part at any day, which request shall not be
unreasonably denied by MLI; provided that on the date of such request and as a condition to such early termination of the Transaction, Counterparty shall represent in writing to MLI that neither Counterparty nor any of its affiliates is in
possession of any material non-public information with respect to Counterparty or the Shares and make such other representations and warranties related to compliance with applicable laws as MLI shall determine are necessary or advisable. For the
avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that it shall be reasonable for MLI to deny any early termination request for reasons, including without limitation, relating to the unavailability or cost of stock borrow of the Shares or the facilitation by
MLI or its affiliates of transactions whereby investors in securities of Counterparty that are exchangeable or convertible into Shares are able to hedge their investments in such securities. 
 4. Staggered Settlement: 
 If MLI
determines reasonably and in good faith that the number of Shares required to be delivered to Party B hereunder on any Settlement Date would exceed 8.0% of all outstanding Shares, then MLI may, by notice to Party B on or prior to such Settlement
Date (a “Nominal Settlement Date”), elect to deliver the Shares comprising the related Settlement Amount on two or more dates (each, a “Staggered Settlement Date”) or at two or more times on the
Nominal Settlement Date as follows: 
  

	 	(1)	 in such notice, MLI will specify to Party B the related Staggered Settlement Dates (the first of which will be such Nominal Settlement Date and the last of which
will be no later than twenty (20) 

  

 4 

	 	 
Exchange Business Days following such Nominal Settlement Date) or delivery times and how it will allocate the Shares it is required to deliver hereunder
among the Staggered Settlement Dates or delivery times; 

  

	 	(2)	the aggregate number of Shares that MLI will deliver to Party B hereunder on all such Staggered Settlement Dates or delivery times will equal the number of Shares that MLI would
otherwise be required to deliver on such Nominal Settlement Date; and 

  

	 	(3)	the Physical Settlement terms will apply on each Staggered Settlement Date, except that the Shares comprising the Settlement Amount will be allocated among such Staggered Settlement
Dates or delivery times as specified by MLI in the notice referred to in clause (1) above. 

 Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, solely in connection with a Staggered Settlement Date, MLI shall be entitled to deliver Shares to Party B from time to time prior to the date on which MLI would be obligated to deliver them to Party B pursuant to the Physical
Settlement terms set forth above, and Party B agrees to credit all such early deliveries against MLI’s obligations hereunder in the direct order in which such obligations arise. No such early delivery of Shares will accelerate or otherwise
affect any of Party B’s obligations to MLI hereunder. 
 5. Matters Relating to Agent: 
 In connection with the Transaction confirmed hereby, the Agent, a broker-dealer registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended (the
“Exchange Act”), will be responsible for: (a) effecting the Transaction (though the Agent shall not be responsible for negotiating the terms of the Transaction), (b) issuing all required confirmations and statements
to Party B relating to the Transaction, (c) as between MLI and the Agent, extending or arranging for the extension of any credit to Party B in connection with the Transaction, (d) maintaining required books and records relating to the
Transaction, (e) complying, to the extent applicable, with Rule 15c3-1 under the Exchange Act and (f) unless otherwise permitted under applicable law or applicable interpretations thereof, receiving, delivering and safeguarding funds and
securities in compliance with Rule 15c3-3 under the Exchange Act. 
 The Agent is acting hereunder solely in its capacity as agent (and not
as principal or guarantor) in connection with the Transaction entered into between Party B and MLI, pursuant to instructions received from Party B and MLI, and shall have no responsibility or liability to Party B or MLI arising from any failure by
either of them to pay or perform any obligation hereunder. Each of Party B and MLI acknowledges the foregoing and agrees that it will proceed solely against the other to collect or recover any funds or securities owing to it in connection with or
arising from the Transaction. The Agent shall not be deemed to have endorsed or guaranteed the Transaction confirmed hereby and shall have no responsibility or liability to either Party B or MLI except for gross negligence or willful misconduct in
the performance of its duties as agent. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary that may be contained herein, all notices,
communications, demands or deliveries of funds or securities hereunder between Party B and MLI shall be effected through the Agent at the address and to the accounts set forth below:

 7. Other Provisions: 
  

			
	Regulatory Compliance:	  	Notwithstanding any contrary provisions in this Confirmation or the Agreement, the parties agree that if the delivery of Shares upon settlement (i) is or would be subject to any restriction
under any law, rule, regulation or order of any governmental authority or (ii) would subject MLI or Agent, in MLI’s good faith judgment, to liability or potential liability under applicable federal securities laws (any event or condition
described in clauses (i) or (ii), a “Legal Obstacle”), the parties will negotiate in good faith a procedure to effect settlement of such Shares in a manner that is not subject to such Legal Obstacle and that is satisfactory in form and
substance to their respective counsel. So long as such Legal Obstacle is applicable, the failure to make such delivery (or related payments or deliveries) shall not be an Event of Default. If the parties do not agree on a mutually satisfactory
procedure within ten (10) Exchange Business Days, settlement of this Transaction shall be effected by the payment of an amount in cash equal to the value of the number of Shares to be delivered as determined by the Calculation Agent in a
commercially reasonable manner.
		
	Compliance with Securities Laws:	  	Each party represents and agrees that it has complied, and will comply, in connection with this Transaction and all related sales and purchases of Shares, with the applicable provisions of the
Securities Act of 1933 as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, Rules 10b-5, 10b-18 and 13(e), as applicable, under the Exchange Act,
provided that each party shall be entitled to rely conclusively on any information communicated by the other party concerning such other party’s market activities.
		
		  	Each party acknowledges that the offer and sale of the Transaction to it is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof. Accordingly, Party
B represents and warrants to MLI that (i) it has the financial ability to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Transaction and is able to bear a total loss of its investment, (ii) it is an “accredited investor” as that term is
defined in Regulation D as promulgated under the Securities Act and (iii) the disposition of the Transaction is restricted under this Confirmation, the Securities Act and state securities laws.
		
	Party B Representations:	  	Party B further represents that:
		
		  	(a) each of its filings under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or other applicable securities laws that are required to be filed have been filed and that, as of the respective dates
thereof, and as of each of the three (3) Exchange Business Days preceding the Trade Date, they do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
statements made, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

  

 6 

			
		  	(b) if Party B were to have purchased a number of Shares equal to the Number of Shares on the Trade Date using Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated as broker, such purchase(s)
would have complied with (i) all laws and regulations applicable to Party B, (ii) the constitutional documents of Party B and (iii) all contractual obligations of Party B;
		
		  	(c) if Party B purchases any Shares pursuant to this Transaction, such purchase(s) will comply with (i) all laws and regulations applicable to Party B, (ii) the constitutional documents of Party
B and (iii) all contractual obligations of Party B;
		
		  	(d) Party B is not entering into this Agreement to create actual or apparent trading activity in the Shares (or any security convertible into or exchangeable for Shares) or to manipulate the
price of the Shares (or any security convertible into or exchangeable for Shares);
		
		  	(e) Party B is not, and after giving effect to this Transaction, will not be, required to register as an “investment company” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of
1940;
		
		  	(f) as of the Trade Date and the Prepayment Date, Party B is not “insolvent” (as such term is defined under Section 101(32) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.)
		
	Set Off:	  	 Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or Termination Event with respect to Counterparty as the Defaulting Party or the Affected Party
(“X”), MLI (“Y”) will have the right (but not be obliged) without prior notice to X or any other person to set-off or apply any obligation of X under an Equity Contract owed to Y (or any Affiliate of Y) (whether or not matured or
contingent and whether or not arising under this Agreement, and regardless of the currency, place of payment or booking office of the obligation) against any obligation of Y (or any Affiliate of Y) under an Equity Contract owed to X (whether or not
matured or contingent and whether or not arising under this Agreement, and regardless of the currency, place of payment or booking office of the obligation). Y will give notice to the other party of any set-off effected under this
section.
  
 “Equity Contract” shall mean for purposes of this
section any Transaction relating to Shares between X and Y that qualifies as ‘equity’ under applicable accounting rules. Amounts (or the relevant portion of such amounts) subject to set-off may be converted by Y into the Termination
Currency at the rate of exchange at which such party would be able, acting in a reasonable manner and in good faith, to purchase the relevant amount of such currency.
  
 If any obligation is unascertained, Y may in good faith estimate that obligation and set-off in respect of the estimate, subject to the relevant party accounting to the
other when the obligation is ascertained. Nothing in this section shall be effective to create a charge or other security interest. This section shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, combination of accounts, lien or
other right to which any party is at any time otherwise entitled (whether by operation of law, contract or otherwise).
  
 Notwithstanding any provision of the Agreement as incorporated in any Confirmation or any other existing or future agreement, Counterparty hereby waives any and all rights to set-off, whether arising under any
agreement, applicable law, or otherwise, except as provided herein.

		
		  	In the event of Counterparty’s bankruptcy, MLI waives any and all rights to set-off it has, whether arising under any agreement, applicable law or otherwise.

  

 7 

			
	Collateral:	  	No collateral is transferred in connection with this Transaction.
		
	Transfer:	  	MLI may transfer its rights or delegate its obligations under this Transaction with the prior written consent of Party B, provided that MLI may assign its rights and delegate its obligations
hereunder, in whole or in part, to any affiliate (an “Assignee”) of Merrill Lynch & Co. (“ML&Co.”), effective (the “Transfer Effective Date”) upon delivery to Party B of
both (i) an executed acceptance and assumption by the Assignee (an “Assumption”) of the transferred obligations of MLI under this Transaction (the “Transferred Obligations”) and (ii) an executed
guarantee (the “Guarantee”) of ML&Co. of the Transferred Obligations. On the Transfer Effective Date, (a) MLI shall be released from all obligations and liabilities arising under the Transferred Obligations and (b) the
Transferred Obligations shall cease to be Transactions(s) under the Agreement and shall be deemed to be Transactions(s) under the ISDA Master Agreement between Assignee and Party B, provided that, if at such time Assignee and Party B have not
entered into a Master Agreement, Assignee and Party B shall be deemed to have entered into a form of the 1992 ISDA Master Agreement (Multicurrency—Cross Border) and Schedule substantially in the form of the Master Agreement and Schedule between
Party B and MLI.
		
	Regulation:	  	MLI is regulated by The Securities and Futures Authority Limited and has entered into this Transaction as principal.
		
	Indemnification:	  	Party B agrees to indemnify MLI and its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and controlling parties (MLI and each person being an “Indemnified
Party”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities, joint and several, to which such Indemnified Party may become subject under any applicable law, or otherwise related to, arising out of any breach by Party B
of its representations, warranties and covenants pursuant to the Master Agreement and this Confirmation and will reimburse any Indemnified Party for all expenses (including reasonable and documented legal fees and expenses) as they are incurred in
connection with the investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto. Party B will not be liable under the
foregoing Indemnification provision to the extent that any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense is found in a final judgment by a court to have resulted from MLI’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

any judgment against ML or any action to enforce the same; or any other circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or a defense of a guarantor. ML covenants that this guarantee will not be discharged

 ML & Co. hereby certifies and warrants that this Guarantee constitutes the valid obligation of ML & Co. and complies with all applicable laws. 
 This Guarantee shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. 
 This Guarantee may be terminated at any time by notice by ML & Co. to the Company given in accordance with the notice provisions of the
Confirmation, effective upon receipt of such notice by the Company or such later date as may be specified in such notice; provided, however, that this Guarantee shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any obligation of ML under the
Confirmation. 
 This Guarantee becomes effective concurrent with the effectiveness of the Confirmation, according to its terms.

authorization, permit or filing with or notification to, any governmental or regulatory authority in the United States or any state thereof, except (x) in connection with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the HSR Act, or
(y) where the failure to obtain such consents, 

  

 12 

 
approvals, authorizations or permits, or to make such filings or notifications, would not prevent the Purchaser from being able to perform its obligations
under this Agreement, (ii) constitute a breach or violation of, or a default under, the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws or similar organizational documents of the Purchaser, or (iii) (x) now or with the passage of time
constitute a breach or violation of, or result in a default (or give rise to any right of termination, material amendment, cancellation or acceleration) under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture,

 Section 5.02 Consents and Approvals; HSR Act. 
 (a) From and after the date hereof, the Company and the Purchaser shall use their reasonable best efforts to obtain as promptly as practicable any consent or approval of any Person, including any regulatory authority,

Act with respect to the 

  

 13 

 
transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as practicable, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days following (but not including) the date

waiting periods under the HSR Act as soon as practicable. The Company shall pay all of the costs, expenses and filing fees incurred by the Purchaser in connection with obtaining approval pursuant to the HSR Act (which payment shall be in addition to
those fees and expenses of the Purchaser payable pursuant to Section 8.01). 
 Section 5.03 Notification of Certain Matters.

 (a) Promptly upon the Company’s receipt of any notice from Edge pursuant to Section 5.5 of the Edge Merger
Agreement, but in any event within one (1) Business Day thereafter, the Company shall provide the Purchaser with a copy of such notice; to the extent any such notice by Edge is orally made, then the Company shall provide the Purchaser with a
detailed description of the contents of such notice within the time period specified herein. 
 (b) If the Company is
obligated to provide a notice to Edge pursuant to Section 5.5 of the Edge Merger Agreement, the Company shall concurrently with the delivery of such notice to Edge provide the Purchaser with a copy of such notice; to the extent any such notice
by the Company to Edge is orally made, then the Company shall concurrently provide the Purchaser with a detailed description of the contents of such notice within the time period specified herein. 
 Section 5.04 Preemptive Rights. 
 (a) If after the Closing Date, and for so long as the Purchaser (together with its Affiliates) beneficially owns at least 5% of the Common Stock on a fully diluted basis, the Company proposes to sell any shares of its Capital Stock for cash
(including any convertible notes to be sold to financial institutions for resale pursuant to Rule 144A, but excluding (i) Excluded Stock, as such term is defined in the Certificate of Designation, or otherwise pursuant to an employee benefit
plan approved by the Board and (ii) shares of Common Stock being publicly offered in a bona fide underwritten offering) to any Person in a transaction or transactions, as the case may be, the Purchaser shall have the right to purchase, at the
same price per share and upon substantially similar terms and conditions as such securities are proposed to be offered to others, up to a number of shares of such Capital Stock (the “New Stock”) sufficient for it to maintain the
same percentage ownership of outstanding securities of such class of Capital Stock of the Company as the Purchaser owned immediately prior to such issuance. 
 (b) (i) In the event the Company intends to make a private offering of convertible notes or convertible preferred stock made to financial institutions for resale pursuant to Rule 144A, no later than five
(5) Business Days after the commencement of marketing with respect to such Rule 144A offering, it shall give the Purchaser prompt written notice of its intention (including a copy of the offering memorandum provided to investors pursuant to
such Rule 144A offering) describing, to the extent then known, the anticipated amount of securities, range of prices, timing and other material terms of such offering. The 

  

 14 

 
Purchaser shall have ten (10) calendar days from the date of receipt of any such notice to notify the Company in writing that it intends to exercise
such preemptive purchase rights and as to the amount of New Stock the Purchaser desires to purchase, up to the maximum amount calculated pursuant to Section 5.04(a). The failure to respond during such ten (10) calendar day period shall
constitute a waiver of the preemptive rights only in respect of such offering. 
 (ii) If the Company proposes to sell any shares of its
Capital Stock for cash to any Person in a transaction or transactions, as the case may be, that is neither an underwritten public offering nor a private offering of convertible notes or convertible preferred stock made to financial institutions for
resale pursuant to Rule 144A (excluding (i) Excluded Stock, as such term is defined in the Certificate of Designation, or otherwise pursuant to an employee benefit plan approved by the Board) (a “Private Placement”), the
Company shall give the Purchaser prompt written notice of its intention, describing, to the extent then known, the anticipated amount of securities, price and other material terms upon which the Company proposes to offer the same. The Purchaser
shall have ten (10) calendar days from the date of receipt of the notice required by the immediately preceding sentence to notify the Company in writing that it intends to exercise such preemptive purchase rights and as to the amount of New
Stock the Purchaser desires to purchase, up to the maximum amount calculated pursuant to Section 5.04(a). The failure of the Purchaser to respond during the ten (10) calendar day period referred to in the second preceding sentence shall
constitute a waiver of the preemptive rights in respect of such offering only. 
 (c) (i) If the Purchaser exercises its preemptive purchase
rights provided in Section 5.04(b)(ii), the closing of the purchase of the New Stock with respect to which such right has been exercised shall be conditioned on the consummation of the Private Placement giving rise to such preemptive purchase
rights and shall take place simultaneously with the closing of the Private Placement or on such other date as the Company and the Purchaser shall agree in writing; provided, that the actual amount of New Stock to be sold to the Purchaser pursuant to
its exercise of preemptive rights hereunder shall be reduced if the aggregate amount of Capital Stock sold in the Private Placement is reduced and, at the option of the Purchaser (to be exercised by delivery of written notice to the Company within
three (3) Business Days of receipt of notice of such increase), shall be increased if such aggregate amount of Capital Stock sold in the Private Placement is increased. In connection with its purchase of New Stock, the Purchaser shall execute
an instrument in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company containing the representations, warranties and agreements of the Purchaser that are required under the terms of the Private Placement. 
 (ii) If the Purchaser exercises its preemptive purchase rights provided in Section 5.04(b)(i), the Company shall offer the Purchaser, if such Rule
144A offering is consummated, the New Stock (as adjusted to reflect the actual size of such offering when priced) at the same price as the Capital Stock being offered is offered to the initial purchasers and shall provide written notice of such
price to the Purchaser as soon as practicable prior to such consummation. Contemporaneously with the execution of any purchase agreement entered into between the Company and initial purchasers of such Rule 144A offering, the Purchaser shall enter
into an instrument in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company acknowledging the Purchaser’s binding obligation to purchase the New Stock to be acquired by it upon the terms and conditions offered to the initial purchasers and
containing 

  

 15 

 
such additional representations, warranties and agreements of the Purchaser that are customary in private placement transactions, and the failure to enter
into such an instrument at or prior to such time shall constitute a waiver of the preemptive rights only in respect of such offering. 
 (d)
In the event the Purchaser fails to exercise its preemptive purchase rights provided in this Section 5.04 within the applicable ten (10) calendar day period, the Company shall thereafter be entitled during the period of 60 days following
the conclusion of the applicable period to sell or enter into an agreement (pursuant to which the sale of Capital Stock covered thereby shall be consummated, if at all, within 60 days from the date of such agreement) to sell the New Stock not
purchased pursuant to this Section 5.04 at the price and on the terms offered to the Purchaser. In the event the Company has not sold the New Stock or entered into an agreement to sell the New Stock within said 60-day period, the Company shall
not thereafter offer, issue or sell such New Stock without first offering such securities to the Purchaser in the manner provided in this Section 5.04. 
 Section 5.05 No Short Sales. The Purchaser will not, nor will any of its Affiliates, directly or indirectly engage in “short sales” of the Company’s Common Stock (including the purchase or
sale of derivative securities and the entering into swap or other arrangements that result in an economic benefit as a result of the decline in the price of the Company’s Common Stock) for so long as the Purchaser continues to hold shares of
Series B Preferred Stock. 
 Section 5.06 Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the proceeds it receives from the sale of the
Shares for reduction of indebtedness and other liabilities and for general corporate purposes. 
 Section 5.07 Access.

 (a) To the extent not restricted by a third-party agreement or applicable Law, subject to any necessary third-party
approvals, prior to the Closing, the Company shall, and shall, to the extent permitted by the Edge Merger Agreement, cause Edge to, allow the Purchaser and its officers, employees, representatives, consultants, attorneys, agents, lenders, bankers,
financial advisors and other advisors reasonable access during normal business hours, at the Purchaser’s sole risk and expense, to all facilities, properties, personnel, books and records of the Company and Edge and their respective
subsidiaries, as applicable; provided, that no investigation pursuant to this Section 5.07 shall affect any representation or warranty given by the Company hereunder; and provided, further, that notwithstanding the provision of information or
investigation by the any party hereto, no party shall be deemed to make any representation or warranty except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Purchaser agrees to conduct its investigation in a manner that does not interfere
unreasonably with the Company’s or Edge’s or their respective subsidiaries’ operations and with the prompt and timely discharge by such their respective employees of their duties. The Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold Edge and
its subsidiaries harmless from any and all claims and liabilities, including costs and expenses for loss, injury to or death of any representatives of Purchaser, and any loss, damage to or destruction of any property owned by Edge or its
subsidiaries or others (including claims or liabilities for loss of use of any property) resulting directly or indirectly from the action or inaction of any of the Purchaser’s representatives during any visit to the business or property sites
of Edge or its subsidiaries 

  

 16 

 
prior to the Closing, whether pursuant to this Section 5.07 or otherwise, but only to the extent that such claims, liabilities, losses or damages are
not due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Company, Edge or their respective employees, agents or representatives. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to, or cause Edge to, provide access to or
otherwise disclose information if such information is subject to, or such access or disclosure would jeopardize, the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or other applicable privilege concerning legal proceedings or governmental
investigations or which it is required to keep confidential by reason of contract or agreement with third parties or by reason of applicable Law. Following the Closing, the Purchaser, will be permitted the reasonable access set forth in this
Section 5.07, but only after complying with the requirements set forth in Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. 
 (b) Any information obtained by the Purchaser or its directors, officers, employees, representatives, consultants, attorneys, agents, lenders, bankers, financial advisors and other advisors under this
Section 5.07 shall be subject to the confidentiality and use restrictions contained in that certain letter agreement between Post Oak Energy Capital, LP and the Company dated November 6, 2007. 
 Section 5.08 Board Representation. 
 (a) For so long as the Purchaser either (i) beneficially owns at least 7% of the Common Stock on a fully diluted basis or (ii) holds at least half of the Series B Preferred Stock purchased under this Agreement (or securities
issued on the conversion of either such Series B Preferred Stock or securities into which such Series B Preferred Stock converted), the Company shall nominate and recommend that its stockholders elect one director designated by the Purchaser (the
“Purchaser Designee”). The Purchaser Designee shall receive notice of all meetings of any committee of the Board at the same time and in the same manner as the members of such committees of the Board, have full rights to attend all
meetings thereof (whether such meetings are formal or informal, are convened in person, telephonically, or by any other telecommunication means), and the Company shall provide the Purchaser Designee all materials distributed to any committee of the
Board and all other information related to the Company which is made available to, or which would otherwise be available upon reasonable request by, the committee members thereof. Any vacancy in the position of the Purchaser Designee shall only be
filled with another designee designated by the Purchaser in accordance with the terms hereof. Any vacancy created by any removal of the Purchaser Designee shall also only be filled at the direction of the Purchaser. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Section 5.08, the Purchaser shall have no right to nominate a Purchaser Designee to the Board pursuant to this Section if at such time the Holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to elect a director to the Board
pursuant to the Certificate of Designation or otherwise. The right of the Purchaser to nominate a Purchaser Designee as provided in this Section 5.08(a) shall not be assignable by the Purchaser. 
 (b) The Company and the Purchaser shall take or cause to be taken all lawful action necessary to ensure at all times as of and following the Closing Date
that the organizational documents of the Company are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Operative Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

of any Parity Stock or Junior Stock) by or on behalf of the Company (except by conversion into or exchange for shares of Parity Stock (if such issuance of Parity Stock has been approved in accordance with Section 4(b)) (in the case of Parity
Stock) or Junior Stock (in the case of Parity Stock or Junior Stock); provided that this restriction shall not apply to (i) the repurchase of Equity Securities from directors, employees, or consultants of the Company or any of its

for the payment thereof is set apart for such payment, on the Series A Preferred Stock, the Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock for all dividend payment
periods terminating on or prior to the date of such declaration, payment, redemption, purchase or acquisition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if full dividends have not been paid on the Series A Preferred Stock, the Preferred Stock and any Parity
Stock, dividends may be declared and paid on the Series A Preferred Stock, the Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock so long as the dividends are declared and paid pro rata so that the amounts of dividends declared per share on the Series A
Preferred Stock, the Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock will in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accumulated and unpaid dividends per share on the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the Preferred Stock and such other Parity Stock
bear to each other. 
 (d) Each Holder shall be entitled to any dividend or other distribution paid or made with respect to any share of
Common Stock to the same extent as if such Holder had converted its Preferred Stock and held such shares of Common Stock on the record date for such dividend or other distribution. Payments or other distributions under the preceding sentence shall
be paid or made to Holders concurrently with the related dividend or other distribution to holders of Common Stock. Except as provided in this Section 3(d) and Section 3(a), Holders shall not be entitled to any dividends or other
distributions on the Preferred Stock, whether payable in cash, property or stock.

then be converted at the Conversion Price if the Preferred Stock were converted at the record date for the determination of the stockholders entitled to vote on such matters or, if no such record date is established, at the date such vote is taken
or any written consent of stockholders is first executed. The Holders shall be entitled to notice of any stockholders’ meeting at the time and in the manner given to the holders of the Common Stock in accordance with the Bylaws of the Company,
as well as prior notice of all stockholder actions to be taken by legally available means in lieu of a meeting.

of Preferred Stock remain outstanding, and in addition to any other vote required by applicable law, unless a greater percentage shall then be required by applicable law, the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote or consent of the Holders
of at least a majority of the then outstanding Preferred Stock voting or consenting, as the case may be, separately as one class:

convertible into Senior Stock or Parity Stock;

otherwise) the Certificate of Incorporation, this Certificate of Designation or the Company’s Bylaws so as to affect adversely the specified rights, preferences, privileges or voting rights of Holders; 
 (iii) (a) effect any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, merger, sale, consolidation, or statutory share exchange (in each
case, other than a Change of Control) (each, a “Fundamental Transaction”), pursuant to which upon the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such Fundamental
Transaction would not, after giving effect to such Fundamental Transaction, Beneficially Own 50% or more of the total voting power of the Voting Stock of either the Company (or its successor by merger, consolidation or purchase of all or
substantially all of its assets), the surviving company in such merger, sale, consolidation or statutory share exchange or its or the Company’s parent, or (b) permit a Permitted Holder to become the Beneficial Owner, directly or indirectly
(including as a result of membership in a “group” (as such term is used in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act)), of more than 50% of the total voting power of the Voting Stock of the Company (or its successor by merger, consolidation
or purchase of all or substantially all of its assets) (for the purposes of this Section 4(a)(iii), any person or group shall be deemed to Beneficially Own any Voting Stock of the Company held by a parent entity, if such person or group
Beneficially Owns, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the total voting power of the Voting Stock of such parent entity); 
 (iv) permit the Common Stock to fail to be listed on a Principal Market; or 
 (v) until the Equity Threshold Date,
incur, or permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the Indentures) to, directly or indirectly, incur, any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) (each as defined in the Indentures), if after giving effect to such incurrence,
total outstanding Indebtedness of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries would exceed $1.9 billion or total outstanding Indebtedness of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries under Credit Facilities (including the Senior Secured Credit
Agreement (in each case, as defined in the Indentures)) of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries would exceed $1.2 billion; provided, however, that accrual of interest, accrual of dividends, the amortization of debt discount or the accretion of
accreted value, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness, and unrealized losses or charges in respect of Hedging Obligations (as defined in the Indentures) (including those resulting from the application of FAS 133) will not be
deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 4(b)(v); provided further that obligations arising upon entering into Hedging Obligations after the Issue Date that, at the time of entering into such Hedging Obligations,
are “out-of-the-money (off market)”, shall constitute incurrences of Indebtedness under the Company’s and its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Senior Secured Credit Agreement for purposes of this Section 4(b)(v) to the extent such
obligations exceed $170 million in the aggregate. 

 (c) The Company may authorize, increase the authorized amount of, or issue any class or series of Junior
Stock with or without voting rights, without the consent of the Holders, and in taking such actions the Company shall not be deemed for purposes of Section 4(b)(ii) to have affected adversely the rights, preferences, privileges or voting rights
of the Holders.

by the Certificate of Incorporation, the written consent, of the Holders of a majority of the then outstanding Preferred Stock. Each Preferred Director so elected shall serve for a term of one year (or, if the Board of Directors is divided into
classes, the length of time that such Preferred Director is entitled to serve determined by reference to the class that such Preferred Director is included in, which, at the time of determination of such class, shall be the class that would be
permitted to serve for the longest period of time) and until his or her successor is elected and qualified. The Preferred Director shall be entitled to receive notice of all meetings of any committee of the Board of Directors at the same time and in
the same manner as the members of such committees of the Board of Directors, have full rights to attend all meetings thereof (whether such meetings are formal or informal, are convened in person, telephonically, or by any other telecommunication
means), and the Company shall provide the Preferred Director all materials distributed to any committee of the Board of Directors and all other information related to the Company which is made available to, or which would otherwise be available upon
reasonable request by, the committee members thereof. Any vacancy in the position of a Preferred Director may be filled only by the Holders. Each Preferred Director may, during his or her term of office, be removed at any time, with or without
cause, by and only by the affirmative vote, at a special meeting of Holders of the Preferred Stock called for such purpose, or, to the extent permitted by the Certificate of Incorporation, the written consent, of the Holders of a majority of the
then outstanding Preferred Stock. 
 (ii) The Secretary of the Company (or such other person as may be required pursuant to the Certificate
of Incorporation) may, and upon the written request of the holders of record of at least 25% of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock (addressed to the Board of Directors and the Secretary of the Company, in each case, at the principal
office of the Company) shall, call a special meeting of the Holders for the election of the Preferred Director to be elected by them as herein provided. Such call shall be made by notice to each Holder by first-class mail, postage prepaid (return
receipt requested) at its address as it appears in the register of the Company and such notice shall be mailed at least ten (10) days but no more than fifteen (15) days before the date of the special meeting, or as required by law. Such
meeting shall be held at the earliest practicable date upon the notice required for special meetings of stockholders at the place designated by the Secretary of the Company. If such meeting shall not be called by a proper officer of the Company or a
proper member or members of the Board of Directors within ten (10) days after receipt of such written request by the Board of Directors and the Secretary of the Company (in the manner provided above), then the Holders of at least 25% of the
shares of 

 
Preferred Stock then outstanding may call such meeting at the expense of the Company (the reasonable expenses related thereto to be reimbursed to the Holders
as incurred), and such meeting may be called by such Holders upon the notice required for special meetings of stockholders and shall be held at the place designated in such notice. Any Holder that would be entitled to vote at any such meeting shall
have access to the stock books of the Company for the purpose of causing a meeting of Holders to be called pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4(d)(ii). 
 (iii) In case of a vacancy occurring in the office of any Preferred Director so elected pursuant to Section 4(d)(i) hereof, the Holders of a majority of the then outstanding Preferred Stock may, at a special
meeting of the Holders or by written consent, elect a successor to hold office for the unexpired term of such Preferred Director. 
 (e) In
exercising the separate class voting rights set forth in Sections 4(b) and 4(d), each share of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to one vote. 
 5.
Liquidation Rights. 
 (a) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company,
or its subsidiaries the assets of which constitute all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, in either case in a single or series of transactions by merger or otherwise (each a
“Liquidation Event”), subject to the payment or provision for payment of the debts and other liabilities of the Company, each Holder shall be entitled to receive and to be paid out of the remaining assets and funds of the
Company available for distribution to its stockholders, prior to the holders of Junior Stock an amount for each share of Preferred Stock then held by such Holder equal to the greater of (a) the Accreted Value plus accrued and unpaid dividends
as of the date of such Liquidation Event and (b) the amount that such Holder would have received if, immediately prior to such Liquidation Event, it had voluntarily converted its Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6. For purposes hereof,
any sale, conveyance, exchange or transfer (for cash, shares of stock, securities or other consideration) of all or substantially all the assets or business of the Company and its subsidiaries, or the merger or consolidation of the Company and/or
its subsidiaries into or with any other Person, in each case, that would constitute a Change of Control, shall be deemed a “Liquidation Event”. 
 (b) If any Liquidation Event occurs prior to the fifth anniversary of the Issue Date, each Holder shall be entitled to receive and to be paid out of the remaining assets and funds of the Company available for
distribution to its stockholders, prior to the holders of Junior Stock, an amount for each share of Preferred Stock then held by such Holder equal to the greater of (a) 105% of the Accreted Value plus accrued and unpaid dividends as of the date
of such transaction and (b) the amount that such Holder would have received if, immediately prior to such transaction, it had voluntarily converted its Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6. 
 (c) After the indefeasible payment in cash to the Holders of full preferential amounts provided for in this Section 5, Holders as such shall have no
right or claim to any of the remaining assets or funds of the Company. 

 (d) In the event the assets and funds of the Company available for distribution to Holders upon any
Liquidation Event shall be insufficient to pay in full all amounts to which such Holders are entitled pursuant to Section 5(a) and amounts to which holders of Parity Stock are entitled, no such distribution shall be made on account of any
shares of Preferred Stock or Parity Stock upon such Liquidation Event unless proportionate distributable amounts shall be paid on account of the shares of Preferred Stock, ratably, in proportion to the full distributable amounts for which Holders of
all Preferred Stock and of any Parity Stock are entitled upon such Liquidation Event with the amount allocable to each series of such stock determined on a pro rata basis of the aggregate liquidation preference of the outstanding shares of each such
series and accumulated and unpaid dividends to which each such series is entitled. 
 (e) The provisions of this Section 5 shall not in
any way limit the right of Holders to elect to convert their shares of Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 6 prior to or in connection with any Liquidation Event. However, following the occurrence of a Liquidation
Event and the payment in full to a Holder of its applicable liquidation preference, such holder shall cease to have any rights hereunder to participate in any future dividends or distributions made to the holders of Common Stock. 
 6. Conversion at the Option of Holders. 
 (a)
Each Holder shall have the right, at its option, exercisable at any time and from time to time from the Issue Date to convert, subject to the terms and provisions of this Section 6, any or all of such Holder’s shares of Preferred Stock. In
such case, the shares of Preferred Stock shall be converted into such whole number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is equal, subject to Section 6(c)(v), to the product of the number of shares of Preferred Stock being
so converted multiplied by the quotient of (i) the Accreted Value per share of Preferred Stock then in effect plus accrued and unpaid dividends as of such date divided by (ii) the Conversion Price then in effect. 
 (b) The conversion right of a Holder shall be exercised by the Holder by delivery to the Company and the Transfer Agent of written notice in the form of
Exhibit B (“Conversion Notice”), at any time during usual business hours of the Company and the Transfer Agent, that the Holder elects to convert all or a portion of the shares of Preferred Stock represented by its
related certificate and specifying the name or names (with address) in which a certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock are to be issued and (if so required by the Company or the Transfer Agent, if any) by a written instrument or
instruments of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company or the Transfer Agent, if any, duly executed by the Holder or its duly authorized legal representative. The Holder shall not be required to physically surrender certificates
representing the Preferred Stock to be converted with the Conversion Notice. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Preferred Stock converted by such Holder and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other
method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of certificates representing the Preferred Stock upon exercise. Immediately prior to the close of business on the date of receipt by the Company
and the Transfer Agent, if any, of the Conversion Notice, each converting Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Holder’s Preferred Stock being converted notwithstanding that the share
register of the Company shall then be closed or that certificates representing such 

 
Common Stock shall not then be actually delivered to such Holder. On the date of any conversion, all rights with respect to the shares of Preferred Stock so
converted (the “Conversion Date”), including the rights, if any, to receive notices, will terminate, except only the rights of Holders thereof to (i) receive certificates for the number of whole shares of Common Stock
into which such shares of Preferred Stock have been converted and cash, in lieu of any fractional shares as provided in Section 6(g) and (ii) exercise the rights to which they are entitled as holders of Common Stock. If the Conversion Date
shall not be a Business Day, then such Conversion Date shall be deemed to be the next succeeding Business Day. Upon receipt by the Company of copy of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall (i) as soon as practicable, but in any event within two
(2) Trading Days, provide a confirmation of receipt of such Conversion Notice to such Holder and the Transfer Agent, if any, which confirmation shall constitute an instruction to the Company and the Transfer Agent to process such Conversion
Notice in accordance with the terms herein and (ii) on or before the third (3rd) Trading Day following the date of receipt by the Company and the Transfer Agent of such Conversion Notice (the “Share Delivery Date”),
(a) provided the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled to the Holder’s or its designee’s
balance account with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system, or (b) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, issue and deliver to the address as specified in the
Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered and bearing restrictive legends, if applicable, in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled. If the number of shares of
Preferred Stock represented by the certificate(s) submitted for conversion is greater than the number of shares of Preferred Stock being converted, then the Company shall, as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Business
Days after receipt of the certificate(s) (the “Preferred Stock Delivery Date”) and at its own expense, instruct the Transfer Agent to issue and deliver to the Holder a new Preferred Stock certificate representing the number
of shares of Preferred Stock not converted. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of Preferred Stock shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common
Stock on the Conversion Date. 
 (c) The Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment as follows: 
 (i) Common Stock Issued at less than the Conversion Price. If and whenever, on or after the date this Certificate of Designation is
filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, the Company issues or sells, or is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of its Common Stock (other than Excluded Stock) for consideration per share less than the Conversion Price, then
immediately upon such issue or sale, the Conversion Price shall be reduced to the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such time by a fraction: 
 (A) the numerator of which shall be (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale (assuming the
conversion of all then outstanding Preferred Stock and the exercise or conversion to Common Stock of all then outstanding Options and Convertible Securities (other than Series A Preferred Stock)) plus (y) the number of shares of Common Stock
which the aggregate consideration received by the Company for the total 

 
number of additional shares of Common Stock so issued or sold (or deemed to be issued or sold) would purchase at the Conversion Price in effect immediately
prior to such issue or sale; and 
 (B) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after
such issue or sale or deemed issuance or sale (assuming the conversion of all then outstanding Preferred Stock and the exercise or conversion to Common Stock of all then outstanding Options and Convertible Securities (other than Series A Preferred
Stock)). 
 For purposes of this Section 6(c)(i), “Excluded Stock” means shares of Common Stock
(in each case as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, combinations or similar transactions), Options (as defined below) and Convertible Securities (as defined below) issued: 
 (i) pursuant to one or more Approved Plans, 
 (ii) upon conversion of the Preferred Stock or the Series A Preferred Stock, 
 (iii) in connection with any (A) stock splits,
stock dividends, recapitalizations or reorganizations for which an adjustment to the Conversion Price is made pursuant to Section 6(c)(iv), or (B) mergers or consolidations for which an adjustment to the Conversion Price is made pursuant
to Section 6(c)(v) and 
 (iv) as consideration in the Merger, including Options assumed in the Merger. 
 For purposes of this Section 6(c), outstanding shares of Preferred Stock will be deemed convertible at all times into shares of Common Stock, where
each share of Preferred Stock is deemed convertible into the greatest whole number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon conversion of such share of Preferred Stock if the Preferred Stock were then convertible at the Conversion
Price then in effect. 
 (ii) Options and Convertible Securities. For purposes of determining the adjusted Conversion
Price under Section 6(c)(i) or Section 6(c)(v), the following shall be applicable (it being acknowledged that the issuance of Excluded Stock shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 6(c)(ii)): 
 (A) If the Company in any manner issues or grants any options, warrants, or similar rights (“Options”) to purchase or acquire
Common Stock or Equity Securities convertible or exchangeable, with or without consideration, into or for Common Stock (“Convertible Securities”) and the price per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of
such Options or upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities is less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of the granting of such Options, then the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon the exercise of such Options or upon conversion or exchange of the total maximum amount of such Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company
for such price 

 
per share on the date of such issuance or grant. For purposes of this subparagraph, the “price per share for which Common Stock is issuable” shall
be determined by dividing (a) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the granting of such Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon exercise
of all such Options, plus, in the case of such Options which relate to Convertible Securities, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities and the
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, by (b) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities issuable upon the
exercise of such Options. No further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made when Convertible Securities are actually issued upon the exercise of such Options or when Common Stock is actually issued upon the exercise of such Options or the
conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities. Upon the expiration, repurchase or other termination without exercise or conversion of any Options or Convertible Securities for which an adjustment was made under Section 6 upon the
issuance or sale thereof, the Conversion Price, shall, upon such expiration, be readjusted and shall thereafter be such as it would have been had it been originally adjusted (or had the original adjustment not been required, as the case may be) on
the basis of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock, if any, actually issued or sold upon the exercise or conversion of such Options or Convertible Securities, and (ii) the consideration actually received by the Company upon such
exercise or conversion plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the Company for the issuance, or sale of all such Options or Convertible Securities whether or not exercised or converted; provided, however, that no such readjustment shall
have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price or decreasing the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock by an amount in excess of the amount of the adjustment initially made in respect of the issuance or
sale of such Options or Convertible Securities. 
 (B) If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the price
per share for which Common Stock is issuable upon such conversion or exchange is less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion
or exchange of such Convertible Securities shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company for such price per share on the date of such issuance or sale. For the purposes of this subparagraph, the “price per
share for which Common Stock is issuable” shall be determined by dividing (a) the total amount received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount
of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, by (b) the total maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such
Convertible 

 
Securities. No further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made when Common Stock is actually issued upon the conversion or exchange of such
Convertible Securities, and if any such issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any Options for which adjustments of the Conversion Price had been or are to be made pursuant to other provisions of this
Section 6(c), no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale. 
 (C) If any Options or
Convertible Securities for which an adjustment was made under Section 6 upon the issuance or sale thereof by its terms provides, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any increase or decrease in the amount of additional consideration
payable to the Company or increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise or conversion or exchange (by change of rate or otherwise) (other than in either case by action of antidilution provisions), upon the
occurrence of any such increase or decrease, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to reflect such increase or decrease insofar as it affects rights of acquisition, exchange or conversion which have not theretofore expired; provided, however,
that no such readjustment shall have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price or decreasing the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock by an amount in excess of the amount of the adjustment initially
made in respect of the issuance or sale of such Options or Convertible Securities. 
 (D) If any Common Stock, Option, or Convertible Security
is issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received for such Common Stock, Option, or Convertible Security shall be deemed to be the amount received by the Company for such Common Stock, Option, or
Convertible Security. In case any Common Stock, Options, or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration other than cash received by the Company shall be the fair value of such
consideration, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, as of the date of receipt. If any Common Stock, Option, or Convertible Security is issued in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving Company, the amount
of consideration for such Common Stock, Option, or Convertible Security shall be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving corporation as is attributable to such Common Stock, Option or
Convertible Security, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, as of the date of receipt. 
 (E) In case any Option is issued in
connection with the issue or sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising one integrated transaction in which no specific consideration is allocated to such Option by the parties to such transaction, the Option shall be deemed to
have been issued for a consideration of $0.01. 

 (F) The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time does not include shares owned or
held by or for the account of the Company or any subsidiary, and the disposition of any shares so owned or held shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock. 
 (iii) Qualified Offering. Notwithstanding anything in this Certificate of Designation to the contrary, if at any time after the
Issue Date the Company completes a Qualified Offering and the product of 1.2 and the purchase price per share of Common Stock paid (or deemed paid) by investors in any offering or private placement consummated in such Qualified Offering is less than
the Conversion Price then in effect (the “Existing Conversion Price”), the Existing Conversion Price shall immediately thereafter be reduced to the product of 1.2 and the lowest purchase price per share of Common Stock paid
in any such Qualified Offering; provided however, that in no event shall the amount of the reduction to the Existing Conversion Price pursuant to this section exceed 35% of the Existing Conversion Price; provided further, that if an issuance or
deemed issuance of Common Stock would result in a greater reduction in the Existing Conversion Price under the other provisions of this Section 6(c) than under this Section 6(c)(iii), then the Existing Conversion Price shall be adjusted
instead pursuant to such other applicable provision of this Section 6(c). 
 (iv) Subdivision or Combination of Common
Stock. If the Company at any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such
subdivision shall be proportionately reduced so that the conversion of the Preferred Stock after such time shall entitle the Holder to receive the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company which, if the
Preferred Stock had been converted immediately prior to such time, such Holder would have owned upon such conversion and been entitled to receive by virtue of such stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or other event, and if the Company at
any time combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased.

 (v) Reorganization, Mergers, Consolidations, or Sales of Assets. If at any time or from time to time there shall be
a capital reorganization of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision, combination, reclassification or exchange of shares, provided for elsewhere in this Section 6(c)), or a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another
entity then, as a part of such reorganization, merger, or consolidation, provision shall be made so that the Holders shall, after such reorganization, merger, or consolidation, be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Preferred Stock shares of
stock of the Company, or of the successor entity resulting from such merger or consolidation, other securities and/or property to which the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock at the then Conversion Price (as in effect
immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation) would have been entitled to receive upon such reorganization, merger or consolidation if such shares were then convertible at the Conversion Price at that time, and Common Stock
issuable in connection with a conversion of the Preferred Stock after such reorganization, merger or consolidation shall 

 
refer to the shares of stock, other securities and/or property to be issued in respect of Common Stock in connection with such reorganization, merger or
consolidation. If the holders of Common Stock have the right to elect the kind and amount of consideration receivable upon consummation of such transaction, then the Holders, in connection with such transaction and at the same time holders of Common
Stock are allowed to make such election, shall be given the right to make a similar election ,which election must be made in the same time frame as the election of holders of Common Stock with respect to the consideration into which the Preferred
Stock shall thereafter be convertible. 
 (d) Conversion Price Reset. In addition to adjustments to the Conversion Price pursuant to
Section 6(c), if the Equity Threshold Date has not occurred prior to July 1, 2010 and the Conversion Price in effect on such date exceeds $19.11 (such per share amount subject to appropriate adjustment for any stock split, reverse stock
split, stock dividend, recapitalization or similar event), the Conversion Price in effect on such date will be reduced to $19.11 (such per share amount subject to appropriate adjustment for any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization or similar event). 
 (e) Statement Regarding Adjustments. Whenever the Conversion Price shall be adjusted as
provided in Section 6(c) or Section 6(d), the Company shall forthwith file, at the office of the Transfer Agent, a statement showing in detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Conversion Price that shall be in effect after such
adjustment, and the Company shall also cause a copy of such statement to be sent by mail, first class postage prepaid, to each Holder at its address appearing on the Company’s records. Each such statement shall be signed by the Company’s
chief financial officer. Where appropriate, such copy may be given in advance and may be included as part of a notice required to be mailed under the provisions of Section 6(f). The Company shall, upon written request at any time of any Holder,
furnish or cause to be furnished to such Holder a certificate setting forth (i) all adjustments and readjustments to the Conversion Price, (ii) the Conversion Price at the time in effect, and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock
and the amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of such Holder’s shares of Preferred Stock if such shares were convertible at such time at the Conversion Price at that time in effect.

 (f) Notice to Holders. In the event the Company shall propose to take any action of the type described in clauses (i) (but
only if the action of the type described in clause (i) would result in an adjustment in the Conversion Price), (iv) or (v) of Section 6(c), the Company shall give notice to each Holder, in the manner set forth in
Section 6(e), which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the approximate date on which such action is to take place. Such notice shall also set forth such facts with respect thereto as shall be
reasonably necessary to indicate the effect on the Conversion Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable upon conversion of shares of the Preferred Stock. Except as otherwise provided
herein, such notice shall be given at least five days prior to the taking of such proposed action. 
 (g) No Fractional Shares. No
fractional shares or securities representing fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of any shares of Preferred Stock, whether voluntary or mandatory. If more than one share of Preferred Stock shall be surrendered for
conversion at one time by the same Holder, the number of full shares of Common Stock 

 
issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate then Accreted Value of the shares of Preferred Stock so surrendered, plus
accrued and unpaid dividends thereon as of such date. If the conversion of any share or shares of Preferred Stock results in a fraction, an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Market Value of the Common Stock on the Trading Day next
preceding the day of conversion shall be paid to such Holder in cash by the Company. 
 (h) Costs. The Company shall pay all
documentary, stamp, transfer or other transactional taxes attributable to the issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of any shares of the Preferred Stock or deemed issuances pursuant to this Section 6 or Section 7;
provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any federal or state income taxes, franchise or similar taxes or other taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificate for
such shares in a name other than that of the Holder in respect of which such shares are registered with the Company. 
 (i) Reservation of
Common Stock. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Preferred Stock, such number of shares of Common Stock
(the “Authorized Share Allocation”) equal to 110% of the shares of Common Stock necessary from time to time to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock at the Conversion Price then in effect and the
conversion of such Preferred Stock pursuant to its terms, and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, the Company
shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose. 
 7. Conversion at the Option of the Company. 
 (a) With 150% VWAP Condition. If, at any time after the later of (i) the second anniversary of the Issue Date and (ii) the date by which the Company shall have completed bona fide underwritten public offerings of its Common
Stock that have resulted in at least $250 million in aggregate net proceeds to the Company after the Issue Date (such later date, the “Company Conversion Threshold Date”), (a) a registration statement covering the resale
of the Common Stock underlying all of the outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock is effective under the Securities Act and the Holders are not then subject to any blackout or other limitations under the Registration Rights Agreement or otherwise
that would prevent the Holders from selling such Common stock thereunder (the “Registration Condition”), (b) the average of the Volume Weighted Average Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 Trading Days ending on the
Trading Date immediately before the Company elects to convert the Preferred Stock exceeds 150% of the then Conversion Price (such condition, the “150% VWAP Condition”), (c) the Holders are not restricted from selling
their shares of the Company pursuant to any “lock-up” provisions or agreements (the “Lock-Up Condition”), (d) so long as a Preferred Director is then a member of the Board of Directors, the officers and
directors of the Company are not then precluded under any insider trading or other similar policy from selling securities of the Company (the “Resale Condition”) and (e) the Common Stock is then listed on a Principal
Market (the “Listing Condition” and, together with the Registration Condition, the 150% VWAP Condition, the 

 
Lock-Up Condition and the Resale Condition, the “Company Conversion Conditions”), then the Company shall have the right, at its
option, to convert the Preferred Stock according to the following schedule and in the following amounts: (1) on any date after the Company Conversion Threshold Date, the Company may elect to convert up to the Forced Conversion Number of shares
of Preferred Stock (the date of such election being the “First Exercise Date”) so long as the Company Conversion Conditions are satisfied at such First Exercise Date; (2) on any date commencing with the 180th day following the First Exercise Date, the Company may elect to convert up to the Forced Conversion Number of shares of Preferred Stock (the date of such
election being the “Second Exercise Date”) so long as the Company Conversion Conditions are satisfied at such Second Exercise Date and (3) on any date commencing with the 180th day following the Second Exercise Date, the Company may elect to convert up to the Forced Conversion Number of shares of Preferred Stock (the date of such election being the
“Third Exercise Date”) so long as the Company Conversion Conditions are satisfied at such Third Exercise Date. In each case of clauses (1), (2) and (3) of the preceding sentence, the Preferred Stock to be converted
shall be convertible into that whole number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is equal, subject to Section 6(c)(v), to the product of the number of shares of Preferred Stock being so converted multiplied by the quotient
of (i) the Accreted Value then in effect plus accrued and unpaid dividends as of such date divided by (ii) the Conversion Price then in effect, with any resulting fractional shares of Common Stock to be settled in accordance with
Section 6(g). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have the right to elect to convert up to all of the outstanding Preferred Stock after the Company Conversion Threshold Date if, at the time of election, in addition to satisfying
all the Company Conversion Conditions, the Company shall, prior to the date of such election, have completed bona fide underwritten public offerings of its Common Stock that have resulted in at least $500 million in aggregate proceeds after the
Issue Date to any party selling in such public offering and the Common Stock to be issued on conversion shall represent less than 25% of the then Public Float (without taking into account the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred
Stock). 
 (b) Without 150% VWAP Condition. If, at any time following the
Company Conversion Threshold Date, (i) each of the Company Conversion Conditions (other than the 150% VWAP Condition) is satisfied, then the Company shall have the right, at its option, to convert the Preferred Stock according to the following
schedule and in the following amounts: (1) on any date after the Company Conversion Threshold Date, the Company may elect to convert up to the Forced Conversion Number of shares of Preferred Stock so long as the Company Conversion Conditions
(other than the 150% VWAP Condition) are satisfied at such First Exercise Date; (2) on any date commencing with the 180th day following the
First Exercise Date, the Company may elect to convert up to the Forced Conversion Number of shares of Preferred Stock so long as the Company Conversion Conditions (other than the 150% VWAP Condition) are satisfied at such Second Exercise Date and
(3) on any date commencing with the 180th day following the Second Exercise Date, the Company may elect to convert up to the Forced Conversion
Number of shares of Preferred Stock so long as the Company Conversion Conditions (other than the 150% VWAP Condition) are satisfied at such Third Exercise Date. In each case of clauses (1), (2) and (3) of the preceding sentence, the
Preferred Stock to be converted shall be convertible into that whole number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is equal, subject to Section 6(c)(v), to the product of the number of shares of Preferred Stock being so
converted multiplied by the quotient of (i) 150% of the Accreted Value 

 
per share then in effect plus accrued and unpaid dividends as of such date divided by (ii) the Conversion Price then in effect, with any resulting
fractional shares of Common Stock to be settled in accordance with Section 6(g); provided, that the Company shall have the right to substitute, for up to one-third of the shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon conversion under
this Section 7(b), cash in an amount equal to the product of (x) the then Current Market Price of the Common Stock and (y) the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable for which the Company has elected to substitute cash
in accordance with this proviso (collectively, the “Make Whole Consideration”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have the right to elect to convert up to all of the outstanding Preferred Stock after the
Company Conversion Threshold Date by issuing and delivering, as applicable, the Make Whole Consideration in consideration therefor if, at the time of election, in addition to satisfying the Company Conversion Conditions (other than the 150% VWAP
Condition), the Company shall, prior to the date of such election, have completed bona fide underwritten public offerings of its Common Stock that have resulted in at least $500 million in aggregate proceeds and the Common Stock to be issued on
conversion shall represent less than 25% of the then Public Float (without taking into account the Common Stock that at such time are issuable but are not yet issued upon conversion of the Preferred Stock). 
 (c) To exercise the mandatory conversion right described in Section 7(a) or Section 7(b), the Company must give irrevocable notice by issuing a
press release or by publication (with subsequent prompt notice) to the Holders (not more than one Trading Day after the date of the press release) confirming the Company’s election to convert the Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 7.
The conversion date will be a date selected by the Company (the “Mandatory Conversion Date”) and will be no more than three (3) Trading Days after the date on which the Company issues the press release described in this
Section 7(c). 
 (d) In addition to any information required by applicable law or regulation, the press release and notice of a
mandatory conversion described in Section 7(c) shall state, as appropriate: (i) the Mandatory Conversion Date; (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of each share of Preferred Stock to be converted;
(iii) the number of shares of Preferred Stock; (iv) that dividends on the Preferred Stock to be converted will cease to accrue on the Mandatory Conversion Date; and (v) the amount of the Make Whole Consideration, if applicable.

 (e) On and after the Mandatory Conversion Date, dividends will cease to accrue on the Preferred Stock called for a mandatory conversion
pursuant to Section 7(a) or Section 7(b) and all rights of Holders will terminate except for the right to receive the whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof, cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Common Stock in
accordance with Section 6(g) and/or the Make Whole Consideration. 
 (f) If fewer than all of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock
are to be converted by the Company pursuant to Section 7(a) or Section 7(b), shares of Preferred Stock to be converted shall be selected by the Company from the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, pro rata (as nearly as may be) on
the basis of total shares of Preferred Stock then held by each Holder. 

 8. Redemption. 
 (a) Redemption at Option of Holders. 
 (i) Subject to Section 8(a)(ii), if
requested by a Holder (an “Electing Holder”), such Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to require the Company from time to time to redeem all or any portion of such Holder’s Preferred Stock (a) on
or after the Voluntary Redemption Date, at a cash redemption price equal to the then Accreted Value of such Preferred Stock (plus accrued and unpaid dividends) to be redeemed or (b) on or after the seventh anniversary of the Issue Date (but
before the Voluntary Redemption Date), in exchange for that number of shares of Common Stock as equals the product of the number of shares of Preferred Stock being so redeemed multiplied by the quotient of (i) the Accreted Value then in effect
plus accrued and unpaid dividends as of such date divided by (ii) the Current Market Price on the Redemption Date, with any resulting fractional shares of Common Stock to be rounded up to the next full share (either of such value or the value
described in clause (a) being the “Voluntary Redemption Price”). 
 (ii) If the Company is unable
to redeem any shares of Preferred Stock then to be redeemed because such redemption would violate the applicable laws of the State of Delaware, then the Company shall redeem the shares of Preferred Stock that it is entitled to redeem pursuant to the
laws of the State of Delaware and shall redeem such other shares then subject to redemption as soon thereafter as redemption would not violate such laws. 
 (iii) The Electing Holders shall give the Company written notice of their election to have their Preferred Stock redeemed pursuant to this Section 8(a) at least thirty (30) days prior to any applicable date
selected by the Electing Holders (the “Redemption Date”) on which the Electing Holders desire to have shares of Preferred Stock so redeemed (the “Electing Holders Redemption Notice”). On or prior to
each Redemption Date, each holder of Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall surrender its certificate or certificates representing such redeemed shares to the Company, in the manner and at the place specified by the Company, and thereupon the
applicable Voluntary Redemption Price of such shares shall be payable to the order of the person whose name appears on such certificate or certificates as the owner thereof and each surrendered certificate shall be canceled. In the event less than
all the shares represented by any such certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued representing the unredeemed shares. 
 (b)
Change of Control Redemption. 
 (i) Upon a Change of Control occurring prior to the fifth anniversary of the Issue
Date, a Holder of the Preferred Stock shall have the right, but not the obligation, to require the Company to redeem such Holder’s Preferred Stock at a cash redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 105% of the Accreted Value per share
of Preferred Stock to be redeemed as of the date of such redemption (plus accrued and unpaid dividends) or (ii) the fair value of the consideration as of the date of such Change of Control, as 

 
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, that such Holder would have received if, immediately prior to such redemption, it had voluntarily
converted its Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6. 
 (ii) Upon a Change of Control occurring on or after the fifth
anniversary of the Issue Date, a Holder of the Preferred Stock shall have the right, but not the obligation (subject to Section 8(a)(ii)), to require the Company to redeem such Holder’s Preferred Stock at a cash redemption price equal to
the then Accreted Value of such Preferred Stock (plus accrued and unpaid dividends) to be redeemed. 
 (iii) Any Holder
requesting redemption of its Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 8(b) shall give the Company written notice of such election within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Change of Control Notice, which notice shall indicate the number of
shares of Preferred Stock that such Holder elects for the Company to redeem. Subject to the Company’s prior compliance with Sections 4.10, 4.15 and 4.16 of the Indentures (to the extent that any of the securities issued thereunder are then
outstanding and the covenants in such Sections of the Indentures are then in effect), the Company shall make payment of the redemption price payable under either Sections 8(b)(i) or (ii) hereof (the “Change of Control Redemption
Price”) within five Trading Days after the Company’s receipt of such notice (the “Change of Control Redemption Date”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the periods for the Company’s
obligations in respect of redemption will be extended to the extent necessary to comply with applicable securities laws and rules. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 8(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be prepayments of the Preferred Stock by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8(b), until the Change of Control Redemption Price is
paid in full, the shares of Preferred Stock submitted for redemption under this Section 8 may be converted pursuant to Section 6, in whole or in part, by the Holder into shares of Common Stock, or in the event the conversion date is after
the consummation of the Change of Control, equity interests of the successor entity substantially equivalent to the Company’s Common Stock pursuant to Section 6(c)(v). The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company’s
redemption of any portion of the Preferred Stock under this Section 8(b), a Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the
availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for each Holder. Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 8(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of such Holder’s
actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty. 
 (c) Subject to any contractual restrictions and applicable law, the
Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to give each Holder notice of any Change of Control no less than 30 days prior to the consummation of a Change of Control. Within ten days following the consummation of a Change of Control, the
Company shall provide written notice thereof to the Holders (the “Change of Control Notice”). 

 9. Certificates. 
 (a) Form and Dating. The Preferred Stock and the Transfer Agent’s certificate of authentication (if a Transfer Agent other than the Company is appointed) shall be substantially in the form set forth in
Exhibit A, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of this Certificate of Designation. The Preferred Stock certificate may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange or FINRA rule, agreements to
which the Company is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Company). Each Preferred Stock certificate shall be dated the date of its authentication. The terms of the
Preferred Stock certificate set forth in Exhibit A are part of the terms of this Certificate of Designation. 
 (b) Record Holders.
The Company and any Transfer Agent other than the Company may deem and treat the record Holder as the true and lawful owner thereof for all purposes, and neither the Company nor any such Transfer Agent shall be affected by any notice to the
contrary. 
 (c) Registration of Transfer. Upon the surrender of any certificate representing Preferred Stock to the Company or any
Transfer Agent other than the Company accompanied by a duly executed and completed certificate in the form of Exhibit C hereto which is hereby incorporated by reference in this Certificate of Designation, the Company shall, or shall cause
such Transfer Agent to, at the request of the record Holder of such certificate, execute and deliver (at the Company’s expense) a new certificate or certificates in exchange therefor, of Preferred Stock representing in the aggregate the number
of shares of Preferred Stock represented by the surrendered certificate. Each such new certificate shall be registered in such name and shall represent such number of shares of Preferred Stock as is requested by the Holder of the surrendered
certificate and shall be substantially identical in form to the surrendered certificate, and dividends shall accrue on the Preferred Stock represented by such new certificate from the date to which dividends have been fully paid on such Preferred
Stock represented by the surrendered certificate. 
 (d) Replacement Certificates. If a mutilated Preferred Stock certificate is

agree to customary indemnity provisions sufficient in the reasonable judgment of the Company and such Transfer Agent to protect the Company and such Transfer Agent from any loss which either of them may suffer if a Preferred Stock certificate is
replaced. The Company and such Transfer Agent may charge the Holder for their respective expenses in replacing a Preferred Stock certificate.

 (a) Requested Registration. 
 (i) Request for Registration. Subject to the conditions of this

 (1) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, qualification or compliance to all other Holders; and

 (2) subject to the limitations of this Section 2(a), prepare and file such registration as may be so requested as soon
as practicable, and in any event within forty-five (45) days of such request (including, without limitation, the execution of an undertaking to file post-effective amendments, appropriate qualification under applicable blue sky or other state
securities laws and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act), and to use its reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act by the Commission
as promptly as practicable after such filing as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable
Securities of any Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request received by the Company within ten (10) business days after written notice from the Company is given under Section 2(a)(i)(1) above;
provided that the Company shall not be obligated to effect, or take any action to effect, any such registration pursuant to this Section 2(a): 
 (A) In any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance,
unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act or applicable rules or regulations thereunder; 
 (B) After the Company has effected three (3) such registrations pursuant to this Section 2(a) and such registrations have been declared or ordered effective; 
  

 -3- 

 (C) If the Registrable Securities requested by all Holders to be registered pursuant to such request do
not have an anticipated aggregate public offering price (before any underwriting discounts and commissions) of more than $10,000,000; 
 (D)
If the Initiating Holder proposes to dispose of shares of Registrable Securities that may be immediately registered on Form S-3 pursuant to a request made pursuant to Section 2(c) below; 
 (E) If the Board of Directors, in its good faith judgment, determines that any registration of Registrable Securities requested pursuant to this
Section 2(a) (a “Requested Registration”) should not be made or continued because (a) at the time the Company receives the request, the Company or its subsidiaries is in possession of material non-public information,
disclosure of which would be required in such registration statement (but would not be required if such registration statement were not filed) and the Board of Directors determines in good faith that such disclosure would be materially detrimental
to the Company and its stockholders, (b) it could reasonably be expected to interfere with a material financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or merger or other material transaction involving the Company and such interference would be
materially detrimental to the Company, or (c) prior to receiving such request for registration, the Board of Directors of the Company had determined to effect a registered underwritten public offering of the Company’s equity securities for
the Company’s account (so long as at such time the Holders’ Registrable Securities would be eligible to be included pursuant to Section 2(b) in such offering) and the Company had taken substantial steps (including, but not limited to,
selecting and entering into a letter of intent with the managing Underwriter for such offering) and is proceeding with reasonable diligence to effect such offering (each, a “Valid Business Reason”), the Company may (x) postpone
filing a registration statement relating to a Requested Registration until such Valid Business Reason no longer exists, but in no event for more than sixty (60) days, and (y) in case a registration statement has been filed relating to a
Requested Registration, if the Valid Business Reason has not resulted from actions taken by the Company, the Company may cause such registration statement to be withdrawn and its effectiveness terminated or may postpone amending or supplementing
such registration statement (so long as the Initiating Holder shall have the rights set forth in this Section 2(a) within sixty (60) days of any such event). The Company shall give written notice of its determination to postpone or
withdraw a registration statement (provided that the Company shall not disclose any information that could be deemed material non-public information to any holder of Registrable Securities that are included in a registration statement that is
subject to such postponement or withdrawal) and of the fact that the Valid Business Reason for such postponement or withdrawal no longer exists, in each 

  

 -4- 

 
case, as soon as practicable after the occurrence thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company may not postpone or
withdraw a filing due to a Valid Business Reason under this Agreement more than once in any twelve (12) month period; or 
 (F) With
respect to Registrable Securities, if such Registrable Securities are already covered by an effective registration statement under the Securities Act. 
 (ii) The registration statement filed pursuant to the request of the Initiating Holder may, subject to the provisions of Section 2(a)(ii) below, include other securities of the Company which are held by Persons
who, by virtue of agreements with the Company, are entitled to include their securities in any such registration (“Other Stockholders”). In the event any Holder requests a registration pursuant to this Section 2(a) in
connection with a distribution of Registrable Securities to its partners, members or stockholders, the registration shall provide for the resale by such partners, if requested by such Holder. 
 (iii) The registration rights set forth in this Section 2 may not be assigned by a Holder, in whole or in part, except to a
transferee of Registrable Securities in a transaction or series of related transactions that (i) do not constitute a “sale” under the federal securities laws, or (ii) are not subject to the registration requirements of the
Securities Act by reason of an exemptions from such registration requirements afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or pursuant to Regulation D promulgated thereunder, (who shall be bound by all obligations of this Agreement) if such
transferee (a) is a subsidiary, parent, general partner, limited partner, retired partner, member or retired member, of a Holder that is a corporation, partnership, limited liability partnership or limited liability company, or (b) is a
member of a Holder’s immediate family or (c) is a trust for the benefit of an individual Holder, or (d) acquires at least 10% of the aggregate Registrable Securities originally issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (as adjusted
for stock splits, combinations and conversions of such Registrable Securities), (e) is an entity affiliated by common control with such Holder or (f) is a permitted transferee under Section 8.05 of the Purchase Agreement;
provided, however, (i) the transferor shall furnish to the Company written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned
and (ii) such transferee shall agree in writing reasonably acceptable to the Company to be subject to all restrictions set forth in this Agreement. 
 (iv) Underwriting. If the Initiating Holder intends to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by its request by means of an underwriting, it shall so advise the Company as a part of its request made
pursuant to Section 2(a)(i). The Company’s Board of Directors shall have the right to designate, in their sole and absolute discretion, the book-running managing Underwriter(s) with respect to any underwritten registration, or with respect
to any other underwritten public offering of Registrable Securities or other securities of the Company and shall select such additional Underwriters to be used in connection with the offering, if any. The Board of Directors shall also have the right
to select one or more co-managers for each such offering if the Board of Directors, subject to the approval of the Initiating Holder not to be unreasonably withheld, shall determine that any be necessary, and the underwriting fees related 

  

 -5- 

 
to any such offering shall be allocated among any such co-managers in such proportions as the Board of Directors shall determine. In the event of any such
offering, the representatives of the Underwriter(s), the Company and any Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in such offering will, subject to the proviso in Section 2(a)(v) below, enter into an agreement appropriate to the
circumstances, containing provision for, among other things, compensation, indemnification, contribution, lock-up agreements and representations and warranties which are usual and customary for similar agreements entered into by the Underwriter(s)
in similar transactions. In connection with such offering, the Company shall take all such actions as the Holders of a majority of number of shares of the Registrable Securities being sold or the underwriters, if any, reasonably request in order to
expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities, including making executive officers of the Company available to participate in, and cause them to cooperate with the underwriters in connection with, “road show” and
other customary marketing activities (including one-on-one meetings with prospective purchasers of the Registrable Securities). 
 (v) If Other Stockholders request inclusion of their securities in the underwriting, the Holders shall offer to include the securities of such Other Stockholders in the underwriting and may condition such offer on their acceptance of the
further applicable provisions of this Section 2. The Holders whose shares are to be included in such registration and the Company shall (together with all Other Stockholders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting)
enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the representative of the Underwriter(s) selected for such underwriting and complete and execute any questionnaires, indemnities, contribution, lock-up agreements and other documents
reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting agreement, and furnish to the Company such information in writing as the Company may reasonably request for inclusion in the registration statement; provided, however, that
(i) the Company shall cause such underwriting agreement to provide for indemnification or contribution obligations on the part of the Holders that are not materially greater than the obligations of the Holders under Section (f)(ii),
(ii) the obligation of the Holders to indemnify any Person pursuant to any such underwriting agreement shall be several, not joint and several, among the Holders selling Registrable Securities in such Registration, and the liability of each
such Holder will be in proportion thereto, and (iii) no Holder shall be required to make any representations or warranties, or provide any indemnity, in connection with any such Registration other than representations and warranties (or
indemnities with respect thereto) as to (A) such Holder’s ownership of its Registrable Securities to be transferred pursuant to such underwriting agreement free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances, (B) such Holder’s
power and authority to effect the sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such underwriting agreement, (C) such matters pertaining to compliance with securities laws by such Holder as may be reasonably requested by the representative of
the Underwriter or Underwriters and (D) such matters relating to written information furnished to the Company by such Holder specifically for use in the registration statement and prospectus (and any related documents) to be used by the Company
in connection with such Registration (such matters in this clause (D) being the “Required Indemnity” and, together with those matters in clauses (A), (B) and (C), the “Required Representations”).

 (vi) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2(a), if such representative advises the Holders in writing
that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, the securities of the Company held by Other Stockholders shall be excluded 

  

 -6- 

 
from such registration to the extent so required by such limitation. If, after the exclusion of such shares, further reductions are still required, the
number of shares included in the registration by each Holder shall be reduced on a pro rata basis (based on the number of shares held by such Holder) by such minimum number of shares as is necessary to comply with such request. No Registrable
Securities or any other securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of the underwriter’s marketing limitation shall be included in such registration. If any Other Stockholder who has requested inclusion in such registration as provided
above disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such Person may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company, the underwriter and the Initiating Holder. The securities so withdrawn shall also be withdrawn from registration. If
the underwriter has not limited the number of Registrable Securities or other securities to be underwritten, the Company and officers and directors of the Company may include its or their securities for its or their own account in such registration
if the representative so agrees and if the number of Registrable Securities and other securities which would otherwise have been included in such registration and underwriting will not thereby be limited. Until the earlier of the second anniversary
of the date hereof and the Equity Threshold Date (as defined in the certificate of designation with respect to the Preferred Stock), each Holder of Registrable Securities agrees, if requested by the Company and the Underwriter(s), not to sell or
otherwise transfer or dispose (except for standard exceptions agreed to by the representative of the Underwriter or Underwriters) of any Registrable Securities held by such Holder for a period of up to one hundred eighty (180) days (in the case
of the initial underwritten offering of Common Stock by the Company after the date hereof) or a period of up to ninety (90)days (in the case of any subsequent underwritten offering of Common Stock by the Company) following the effective date of a
registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act with respect to such underwritten offering, provided that all officers and directors of the Company and Other Stockholders with registration rights enter into agreements on
substantially the same terms. 
 (b) Company Registration. 
 (i) If at any time after the date hereof, the Company shall determine to register any of its equity securities for sale for cash, either
for its own account or for the account of Other Stockholders, other than a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, or a registration relating solely to a Rule 145 transaction under the Securities Act, or a registration on any
registration form which does not permit secondary sales or does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of Registrable Securities, the Company will: 

(1) promptly give to each of the Holders a written notice thereof (which shall include a list of the jurisdictions in which the Company
intends to attempt to qualify such securities under the applicable blue sky or other state securities laws); and 
 (2)
include in such registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests (other than Registrable
Securities 

  

 -7- 

 
already covered by an effective registration statement under the Securities Act), made by the Holders within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the
written notice from the Company described in clause (1) above, except as set forth in Section 2(b)(ii) below. Such written request may specify all or a part of the Holders’ Registrable Securities and shall describe the intended method
of disposition of the Registrable Securities by such Holders. In the event any Holder requests inclusion in a registration pursuant to this Section 2(b) in connection with a distribution of Registrable Securities to its partners, members or
stockholders, the registration shall provide for the resale by such partners, if requested by such Holder. 
 (3) At any time,
the Company may terminate or withdraw its registration statement referred to in this Section 2(b) and without any obligation to any Holder, whether or not any Holder has elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration. The
Company may suspend the effectiveness and use of any such registration statement at any time for an unlimited amount of time, whether or not any Holder has elected to include any Registrable Securities in such registration. 
 (ii) Underwriting. If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an
underwriting, the Company shall so advise each of the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 2(b)(i)(1) above. In such event, the right of each of the Holders to registration pursuant to this Section 2(b) shall
be conditioned upon such Holders’ participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holders’ Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. The Holders whose shares are to be included in such
registration shall (together with the Company and the Other Stockholders distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the representative of the Underwriter(s) selected for
underwriting by the Company and complete and execute any questionnaires, indemnities, contribution and lock-up agreements, and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting agreement, and furnish to the Company such
information in writing as the Company may reasonably request for inclusion in the registration statement; provided, however, that (i) the Company shall use all reasonable efforts to cause such underwriting agreement to provide for
indemnification or contribution obligations on the part of the Holders that are not materially greater than the obligations of the Holders under Section (f)(ii), (ii) the obligation of the Holders to indemnify any Person pursuant to any such
underwriting agreement shall be several, not joint and several, among the Holders selling Registrable Securities in such Registration, and the liability of each such Holder will be in proportion thereto, and (iii) no Holder shall be required to
make any representations or warranties other than the Required Representations, or provide any indemnity other than the Required Indemnity, in connection with any such Registration. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2(b), if
the representative determines in good faith that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, the number of securities that may be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated in the
following manner: first, to the Company with respect to sales for its own account; second, pro rata to the Holders and the Other Stockholders who by contractual right demanded such registration (“Demanding Stockholders”) based on
the respective

number of securities then held by the Holders and Demanding Stockholders that are requested to be covered by such registration; and third, pro rata to
officers, directors and Other Stockholders of the Company (other than Demanding Stockholders) based on the number of securities of the Company then held by such officers, directors and Other Stockholders; provided, however, that (A) until the
Equity Threshold Date, in no event shall the amount of Registrable Securities of the selling Holders included in the registration be reduced below fifty percent (50%) of the total amount of securities included in such registration by all other
selling stockholders and (B) on or after the Equity Threshold Date, in no event shall the amount of Registrable Securities of the selling Holders included in the registration be reduced below twenty-five percent (25%) of the total amount
of securities included in such registration. If any of the Holders or any officer, director or Other Stockholder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, he, she or it may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and
the underwriter, delivered at least five (5) business days prior to the effective date of the registration statement. 
 (iii) The Company’s Board of Directors shall have the right to designate, in their sole and absolute discretion, the book-running managing Underwriter(s) with respect to any underwritten registration effected pursuant to this
Section 2(b), or with respect to any other underwritten public offering of Registrable Securities or other securities of the Company pursuant to this Section 2(b) and shall select such additional Underwriters to be used in connection with
the offering, if any. The Board of Directors shall also have the right to select one or more co-managers for each such offering if the Board of Directors, in their sole and absolute discretion, shall determine that any be necessary, and the
underwriting fees related to any such offering shall be allocated among any such co-managers in such proportions as the Board of Directors shall determine. In the event of any such offering, the Underwriter(s), the Company and any Holder whose
Registrable Securities are included in such offering will, subject to the first proviso in Section 2(b)(ii) above, enter into an agreement appropriate to the circumstances, containing provision for, among other things, compensation,
indemnification and lock-up agreements, and representations and warranties, which are usual and customary for similar agreements entered into by the Underwriter(s) in similar transactions. In connection with such offering, the Company shall take all
such actions as the Holders of a majority of number of shares of the Registrable Securities being sold or the underwriters, if any, reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities, including
making executive officers of the Company available to participate in, and cause them to cooperate with the underwriters in connection with, “road show” and other customary marketing activities (including one-on-one meetings with
prospective purchasers of the Registrable Securities). 
 (c) Form S-3. If the Company meets the eligibility requirements for use of
Form S-3, the Company shall use best efforts to maintain its qualification for registration on Form S-3 for secondary sales. For so long as the Company meets the eligibility requirements for use of Form S-3, the Initiating Holder shall have the
right to collectively request three (3) registrations on Form S-3 (such requests shall be in writing and shall state the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be disposed of and the intended method of disposition of shares by such
holders), provided that the Company shall not be obligated to effect, or take any action to effect, any such registration pursuant to this Section 2(c): 
 (i) In any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or execute a general consent to
service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act or applicable rules or regulations thereunder;

  

 -9- 

 (ii) If the Registrable Securities requested by all Holders to be registered pursuant to
such request do not have an anticipated aggregate public offering price (before any underwriting discounts and commissions) of more than $5,000,000; 
 (iii) If the Board of Directors, in its good faith judgment, determines that any registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2(c) (an “S-3 Registration”) should not be made or
continued because of a Valid Business Reason, the Company may (x) postpone filing a registration statement relating to a S-3 Registration until such Valid Business Reason no longer exists, but in no event for more than sixty (60) days, and
(y) in case a registration statement has been filed relating to a S-3 Registration, if the Company reasonably believes that there is or may be in existence material nonpublic information or events involving the Company, the failure of which to
be disclosed in the prospectus, any preliminary prospectus or free writing prospectus and any amendment thereof or supplement thereto included in the registration statement could result in a Violation (as defined below), the Company may cause such
registration statement to be withdrawn and its effectiveness terminated or may postpone amending or supplementing such registration statement (so long as the Holders shall have the rights set forth in this Section 2(c) within sixty
(60) days of any such event). The Company shall give written notice of its determination to postpone or withdraw a registration statement (provided that the Company shall not disclose any information that could be deemed material non-public
information to any holder of Registrable Securities that are included in a registration statement that is subject to such postponement or withdrawal) and of the fact that the Valid Business Reason for such postponement or withdrawal no longer
exists, in each case, promptly after the occurrence thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company may not postpone or withdraw a filing due to a Valid Business Reason under this Agreement more than once in any
twelve (12) month period; or 
 (iv) If the Registrable Securities are already covered by an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act. 
 The Company shall give written notice to all Holders of the receipt of a request for registration pursuant to this
Section 2(c) and shall provide a reasonable opportunity for other Holders to participate in the registration, provided that if the registration is for an underwritten offering, the terms of Section 2(a)(ii) above shall apply to all
participants in such offering. Subject to the foregoing, the Company will use its best efforts to effect the registration as soon as practicable, and in any event within sixty (60) days of the Initiating Holder’s request, of all shares of
Registrable Securities on Form S-3 to the extent requested by the Holder or Holders thereof for 

  

 -10- 

 
purposes of disposition. In the event any Holder requests a registration pursuant to this Section 2(c) in connection with a distribution of Registrable
Securities to its partners, members or stockholders, the registration shall provide for the resale by such partners, if requested by such Holder. 
 (d) Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section 2 shall be borne by the Company. The Company shall not, however, be
required to pay for expenses relating to underwriting discounts and commissions for Registrable Securities sold by a Holder pursuant to an effective registration statement. 
 (e) Registration Procedures. In the case of each registration effected by the Company pursuant to this Section 2, the Company will keep the
Holders, as applicable, advised in writing as to the initiation of each registration and as to the completion thereof. At its expense, the Company will: 
 (i) prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement on the appropriate form under the Securities Act, which form shall be selected by the Company (provided, that if the Company meets the
eligibility requirements for use of Form S-3, such form shall be a Form S-3, and provided further, that, if the Company is then a Well-Known Seasoned Issuer and the Initiating Holder intends to offer the covered Registrable Securities
on a delayed or continuous basis, such form shall be an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement) and shall comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements and distribution methods of the applicable form and, if applicable, Rule 415
under the Securities Act and include all financial statements required by the Commission to be filed therewith; and use its best reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective for the applicable
period in accordance with Section 2(e)(iii) hereof; 
 (ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
post-effective amendments to each registration statement as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for the applicable period in accordance with Section 2(e)(iii) hereof; 
 (iii) keep such registration effective for a period of one hundred twenty (120) days or until the Holders (or in the case of a
distribution to the partners of such Holder, such partners) have completed the distribution described in the registration statement relating thereto, whichever first occurs; provided, however, that (1) the one hundred twenty
(120) day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period during which the Holders or partners, as applicable, are prohibited from selling any securities included in such registration due to any suspension of effectiveness
provided for in accordance with the provisions in Sections 2(a)(i)(2)(F) or 2(c)(iii) hereof; and (2) in the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 which are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, such
one hundred twenty (120) day period shall be extended until all such Registrable Securities are sold, provided that Rule 415, or any successor rule under the Securities Act, permits an offering on a continuous or delayed basis, or until the
Holders of all the unsold Registrable Securities may sell or transfer such Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 

  

 -11- 

 
144 under the Securities Act (or any other similar provision then in force) without any volume, manner of sale or current public information restrictions
thereunder, so long as, at the time of determination, such Holders (x) are not affiliates of the Company and (y) collectively own less than one percent (1%) of the outstanding Common Stock on a fully diluted basis; 
 (iv) prior to filing a registration statement or prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish to each Holder and each
underwriter, if any, of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, copies of such registration statement as proposed to be filed, and thereafter furnish to each such Holder and underwriter, if any, such number of copies of
such registration statement, and each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary
prospectus and any summary prospectus) and any other prospectus filed under Rule 424 or Rule 430A under the Securities Act and such other documents as such Holder or underwriter may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the
Registrable Securities owned by such Holder; 
 (v) notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration
at any time when 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, any preliminary prospectus or free writing prospectus and any amendment thereof or
supplement thereto included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits 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 then existing; 
 (vi) use its best efforts to obtain the withdrawal at the earliest
possible time of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the applicable registration statement and the elimination of any other impediment to the continued effectiveness of such registration statement; 
 (vii) subject to Section 2(a)(i)(2)(A) and Section 2(c)(i), use its best efforts to register or qualify the Registrable
Securities under all applicable state securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as any Holder of Registrable Securities covered by a registration statement shall reasonably request in writing by the time the applicable registration statement
is declared effective by the Commission and do any and all other acts and things that may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable each Holder to complete the disposition in each such jurisdiction of the Registrable Securities owned by such
Holder; 
 (viii) use reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by such registration to be listed on the
New York Stock Exchange, or if the Common Stock is not then listed on the New York Stock Exchange, on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed, or if the Common Stock is not then listed on a national
securities exchange, authorized for quotation on any automated quotation system on which the Common Stock is then quoted; 
  

 -12- 

 (ix) obtain a CUSIP number for all Registrable Securities, as the case may be, not later
than the effective date of a registration statement; and 
 (x) furnish, on the date that such Registrable Securities are
delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold through underwriters or, if such securities are not being sold through underwriters, on the date that the registration statement with respect to such securities becomes
effective, (1) an opinion, dated as of such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the
underwriters, if any, and to the Holders participating in such registration and (2) a letter, dated as of such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent
certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and if permitted by applicable accounting standards, to the Holders participating in such registration. 
 (f) Indemnification. 
 (i) The Company will indemnify each of the Holders, as applicable, each of its officers, directors and partners, each Person controlling each of the Holders and each of their respective successors and assigns, with
respect to each registration which has been effected pursuant to this Section 2, and each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls any underwriter, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any prospectus, preliminary prospectus, free writing prospectus and any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, offering circular or other
document (including any related registration statement, notification or the like) incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance, or based on 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, or any violation by the Company of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or any rule or regulation thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required
of the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance (collectively a “Violation”), and will reimburse each of the Holders, each of its officers, directors and partners, and each Person controlling
each of the Holders, each such underwriter and each Person who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating and defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action;
provided that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission based upon written information furnished to the Company
by the Holders and stated to be specifically for use therein. 
  

 -13- 

 (ii) Each of the Holders will, if Registrable Securities held by it are included in the
securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify the Company, each of its directors and officers and each underwriter, if any, of the Company’s securities covered by such a registration
statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter, each Other Stockholder and each of their officers, directors, and partners, and each person controlling such Other Stockholder against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities
(or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, free writing prospectus and any
amendment thereof or supplement thereto, offering circular or other document made by such Holder, any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements by such Holder
therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and such Other Stockholders, directors, officers, partners, persons, underwriters or control persons for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating and
defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement,
prospectus, preliminary prospectus, free writing prospectus and any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, offering circular or other document, or such violation is made, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
Company by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the obligations of each of the Holders hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds to such Holder of securities sold as contemplated
herein. 
 (iii) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 2(f) (the “Indemnified
Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall
permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, shall
be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld) and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense (unless the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there
may be a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in such action, in which case the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party), and provided further that the failure of any
Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 2(f) unless the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any
such claim or litigation shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such
Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Each Indemnified Party shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in writing and
as shall be reasonably required in connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom. 
  

 -14- 

 (iv) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2(f) is held by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and of the
Indemnified Party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and
of the Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue (or alleged untrue) statement of a material fact or the omission (or alleged omission) to state a material fact relates to information supplied by
the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 
 (v) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting
agreement entered into in connection with any underwritten public offering contemplated by this Agreement are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in this Agreement shall be controlling. 
 (g) Information by the Holders. 
 (i) Each of the Holders holding securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder and the distribution proposed by such Holder as the Company may reasonably
request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Section 2. 
 (ii) In the event that, either immediately prior to or subsequent to the effectiveness of any registration statement, any Holder shall distribute Registrable Securities to its partners, members, stockholders or other
permitted transferees, such Holder shall so advise the Company and provide such information as shall be necessary to permit an amendment to such registration statement to provide information with respect to such partners, members, stockholders or
other permitted transferees as selling security holders. Promptly following receipt of such information, the Company shall file an appropriate amendment to such registration statement reflecting the information so provided. 
 (h) Rule 144 Reporting. 
  

 -15- 

 With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may
permit the sale of restricted securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to: 
 (i) make and keep
public information available as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”); 
 (ii) use its best efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act at any time after it has become subject to
such reporting requirements; and 
 (iii) so long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to such Holder upon
request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports
and documents so filed as such Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing such Holder to sell any such securities without registration. 
 (i) Termination. The registration rights set forth in this Section 2 shall not be available to any Holder if all of the Registrable
Securities held by such Holder have been sold in a registration pursuant to the Securities Act or pursuant to Rule 144, or until all such Holder’s unsold Registrable Securities may be sold or transferred by such Holder pursuant to Rule 144
under the Securities Act (or any other similar provision then in force) without any volume, manner of sale or current public information restrictions thereunder, so long as, at the time of determination, such Holder (x) is not an affiliate of
the Company and (y) owns less than one percent (1%) of the outstanding Common Stock on a fully diluted basis. 
 (j)
Seniority. The Company shall not, without first obtaining the written consent of the Holders who hold a majority of the then outstanding Registrable Securities, assuming conversion of all then outstanding Preferred Stock into Common Stock,
grant future Registration rights on terms more favorable than the Registration rights granted pursuant to this Agreement.

 Exhibit C 
 FORM OF CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATION FOR THE SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK 
 CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS
OF 
 5.75% SERIES A CUMULATIVE CONVERTIBLE PERPETUAL PREFERRED STOCK 
 OF CHAPARRAL ENERGY, INC. 
 Pursuant to Section 151 of the 
 General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware 
 Chaparral Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), certifies that pursuant to the authority contained in Article FOURTH of its Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the
“Certificate of Incorporation”), and in accordance with the provisions of Section 151 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), the Board of Directors of the Company [in a meeting
held] [by resolution adopted by unanimous written consent, pursuant to Section 141(f) of the DGCL,] on [                    ], duly
approved and adopted the following resolution, which resolution remains in full force and effect on the date hereof: 
 RESOLVED, that pursuant to the authority vested in the Board of Directors by the Certificate of Incorporation, the Board of Directors does hereby designate, create, authorize and provide for the issue of a series of the Company’s
preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, with a liquidation preference of $50 per share, plus an amount equal to the sum of all accumulated and unpaid dividends, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 15(ii) hereof, which shall be
designated as 5.75% Series A Cumulative Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) consisting of 2,875,000 shares, no shares of which have heretofore been issued by the Company, having the following
powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights, and qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof: 
 Section 1. Ranking. The Series A Preferred Stock will rank, with respect to payment of dividends and distribution of assets upon the liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Company: (i) senior to all
Junior Stock, (ii) on parity with all Parity Stock and (iii) junior to all Debt Obligations and Senior Stock. The Company’s ability to issue Capital Stock that ranks senior to its Series A Preferred Stock shall be subject to the
provisions of Section 4 hereof. 
 Section 2. Dividends. 
 (i) Each holder of shares of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock (together, the “Holders”) shall be entitled, when,
as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of assets of the Company legally available therefor, to receive cumulative dividends at the rate per annum of 5.75% per share on the liquidation preference thereof of $50 per share of Series A
Preferred Stock subject to adjustment as provided in Section 15(ii) hereof (such liquidation preference, as adjusted from time to time, the “Liquidation Preference”), payable in cash, payable quarterly in arrears (such rate,
the “Dividend Rate”). Dividends payable for each full dividend period will be computed by dividing the Dividend Rate by four and shall be payable in arrears on each Dividend Payment Date commencing on the Dividend Payment Date next

 
following the Effective Time of the Merger (the “First Dividend Payment Date”) for the quarterly period ending immediately prior to such
Dividend Payment Date, to the holders of record of Series A Preferred Stock at the close of business on the Dividend Record Date applicable to such Dividend Payment Date. Such dividends shall accumulate from the most recent date as to which
dividends shall have been paid or, if no dividends have been paid, from the Last Edge Payment Date (as defined below) (whether or not in any dividend period or periods there shall be assets of the Company legally available for the payment of such
dividends in whole or in part). The initial dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock, for the quarterly period commencing on the day after the quarterly period ending immediately prior to the Last Edge Payment Date and ending immediately prior to
the First Dividend Payment Date, shall be $0.71875 per share and shall be payable, when, as and if declared, on the First Dividend Payment Date. Each subsequent quarterly dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock, when, as and if declared, shall be
$0.71875 per share. Dividends payable for any partial dividend period shall be computed on the basis of days elapsed over a 360 day year consisting of twelve 30 day months. The most recent date as to which dividends shall have been paid on the 5.75%
Series A Cumulative Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock of Edge Petroleum Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Edge”), is referred to herein as (the “Last Edge Payment Date”). 
 (ii) No dividend will be declared or paid upon, or any sum set apart for the payment of dividends upon, any outstanding share of the
Series A Preferred Stock with respect to any dividend period unless all dividends for all preceding dividend periods have been declared and paid or declared and a sufficient sum of money or number of shares of Common Stock have been set apart for
the payment of such dividend, upon all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock. 
 (iii) The Company is only obligated
to pay a dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock if the Board of Directors declares the dividend payable and the Company has assets that legally can be used to the pay the dividend. 
 (iv) No dividends or other distributions (other than a dividend or distribution payable solely in shares of Parity Stock or Junior Stock
(in the case of Parity Stock) or Junior Stock (in the case of Junior Stock), rights issued under “poison pill” rights plans to purchase Junior Stock and cash paid in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with Section 13 hereof) may
be declared, made or paid, or set apart for payment upon, any Parity Stock or Junior Stock, nor may any Parity Stock or Junior Stock be redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired for any consideration (or any money paid to or made available for a
sinking fund for the redemption of any Parity Stock or Junior Stock) by or on behalf of the Company (except by conversion into or exchange for shares of Parity Stock or Junior Stock (in the case of Parity Stock) or Junior Stock (in the case of
Junior Stock)), unless all accumulated and unpaid dividends shall have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid, or are declared and a sum of cash sufficient for the payment thereof is set apart for such payment, on the Series A Preferred
Stock and any Parity Stock for all dividend payment periods terminating on or prior to the date of such declaration, payment, redemption, purchase or acquisition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if full dividends have not been paid on 

  

 2 

 
the Series A Preferred Stock and any Parity Stock, dividends may be declared and paid on the Series A Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock so long as the
dividends are declared and paid pro rata so that the amounts of dividends declared per share on the Series A Preferred Stock and such Parity Stock will in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accumulated and unpaid dividends per share on
the shares of Series A Preferred Stock and such other Parity Stock bear to each other. 
 (v) Holders shall not be entitled to
any dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock in excess of full cumulative dividends calculated pursuant to this Section 2. No interest, or sum of money in lieu of interest, shall be payable in respect of any dividend payment or payments on the
Series A Preferred Stock that may be in arrears. 
 (vi) With respect to dividends that have been declared for payment, a
Holder at the close of business on a Dividend Record Date will be entitled to receive the dividend payment on its Series A Preferred Stock on the next succeeding Dividend Payment Date notwithstanding the Company’s default in payment of the
dividend due on that Dividend Payment Date. 
 (vii) Dividends in arrears on the Series A Preferred Stock in respect of a
dividend period not declared for payment (“Delayed Dividends”) may be declared by the Board of Directors and paid on any date fixed by the Board of Directors, whether or not a Dividend Payment Date, to the Holders of record as they
appear on the stock register of the Company on a record date selected by the Board of Directors, which shall (a) not precede the date the Board of Directors declares the dividend payable and (b) not be more than 60 days prior to the date
the dividend is paid. 
 (viii) Holders will not have any right to receive dividends that may be declared on the Common Stock.
The right to receive dividends declared on the Common Stock will be realized only after conversion of a Holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock. 
 Section 3. Liquidation Preference. 
 (i) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, winding up or dissolution of the Company, each Holder shall be entitled to receive and to be paid out of the assets of the Company available for
distribution to stockholders of the Company, before any payment or distribution of assets is made to holders of the Common Stock or any other Junior Stock but after any payment or distribution in respect of Debt Obligations or Senior Stock, the
Liquidation Preference, plus accumulated and unpaid dividends (whether or not declared) thereon to the date fixed for liquidation, winding up or dissolution. 
 (ii) Neither the sale, conveyance or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets or business of the Company (other than in
connection with the liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of its business) nor the merger or consolidation of the Company into or with any other Person shall be deemed to be a liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, voluntary or involuntary, for
the purposes of this Section 3. 
  

 3 

 (iii) In the event the assets of the Company available for distribution to Holders upon
any liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, shall be insufficient to pay in full all amounts to which such Holders are entitled pursuant to Section 3(i) and amounts to which holders of Parity
Stock are entitled, no such distribution shall be made on account of any shares of Parity Stock upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up unless proportionate distributable amounts shall be paid on account of the shares of Series A Preferred
Stock and holders of Parity Stock, ratably, in proportion to the full distributable amounts for which Holders and holders of any Parity Stock are entitled upon such liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, with the amount allocable to each series of
such stock determined on a pro rata basis of the aggregate liquidation preference of the outstanding shares of each series and accumulated and unpaid dividends to which each series is entitled. 
 (iv) After the payment to the Holders of full preferential amounts provided for in Sections 3(i) and 3(iii) hereof, the Holders as such
shall have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Company. 
 Section 4. Voting Rights. 
 (i) Holders shall have no voting rights, except as set forth in this Section 4 or as expressly required by Delaware law from time to
time. 
 (ii) If and whenever (a) six full quarterly dividends, whether or not consecutive, payable on the Series A
Preferred Stock, are not paid or (b) the Company fails to pay the purchase price on the Fundamental Change Purchase Date for shares of Series A Preferred Stock following a Fundamental Change, then, in each case, the number of directors
constituting the Board of Directors will be increased by two and the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, voting as a single class with any other class or series of preferred stock having similar voting rights that are exercisable, shall have a
right to elect those additional directors to the Board of Directors until all accumulated and unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have been paid in full or until the purchase price for shares of Series A Preferred Stock following a
Fundamental Change has been paid in full, as the case may be. The directors so elected shall not be divided into the classes of the Board of Directors, but shall serve for annual terms. To exercise this right, any Holder may by written notice
request that the Board of Directors call a special meeting of the holders of the Company’s preferred stock for the purpose of electing the additional directors and, if such non-payment of dividends is continuing, the Board of Directors shall
call such meeting within 60 days after such written request. The terms of the directors so elected will continue until such time as all accumulated and unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have been paid in full or until the purchase
price for shares of Series A Preferred Stock following a Fundamental Change has been paid in full, as the case may be, and at such time, the number of directors will, without further action, be reduced by two. 
  

 4 

 (iii) So long as any shares of
Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, in addition to any other vote of stockholders of the Company required under applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation, the affirmative vote or consent of the Holders of at least 66 2/3% of the then outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock will be required to approve (a) any amendment of the
Certificate of Incorporation, by merger or otherwise, if the amendment would alter or change the powers, preferences, privileges or rights of the Series A Preferred Stock so as to affect the Holders adversely, (b) the issuance, authorization or
increase in the authorized amount of, or the issuance or authorization of any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing a right to purchase any class or series of Senior Stock or (c) any reclassification of any authorized stock of
the Company into any class or series of, or any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing a right to purchase, any Senior Stock; provided that no such vote shall be required for the Company to issue, authorize or increase the
authorized amount of, or issue or authorize any obligation or security convertible into or evidencing a right to purchase, any Parity Stock or Junior Stock. 
 (iv) In all cases where the Holders are entitled to vote, each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to one vote. When the
Holders are entitled to vote as a class with holders of any other class or series of preferred stock having similar voting rights that are exercisable, each class or series shall have the number of votes proportionate to the aggregate liquidation
preference of its outstanding shares. Holders shall generally not have any vote in a merger or consolidation, including in any such transactions in which the Series A Preferred Stock is converted into the right to receive cash or securities;
provided, however, that as described in Section 4(iii)(a), Holders shall be entitled to vote in mergers and consolidations that amend the powers, preferences, privileges or rights of the Holders so as to adversely affect them.

 Section 5. Forced Conversion; Limited Optional Redemption. 
 (i) On or after January 20, 2010, the Company may at any time, by providing not less than 15 nor more than 45 days’ notice,
cause the Series A Preferred Stock to be automatically converted at the applicable Conversion Rate (a “Forced Conversion”); provided that the Company may exercise this right only if the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock
for at least 20 Trading Days in a period of 30 consecutive Trading Days, including the last Trading Day of such 30-day period, ending on the Trading Day prior to the date the Company gives notice of its election to call a Forced Conversion (by press
release as described in Section 5(ii) hereof), equals or exceeds 130% of the Conversion Price on each such Trading Day. 
 (ii) To exercise its right to call a Forced Conversion, the Company must issue a press release prior to the close of business on the first Trading Day following any date on which the conditions described in Section 5(i) hereof are met,
announcing such election to call a Forced Conversion. The Company will also give notice by mail 

  

 5 

 
or by publication (with subsequent prompt notice by mail) to the Holders (not more than seven Business Days after the date of the press release) of the
election to call a Forced Conversion. The forced conversion date will be a date selected by the Company (the “Forced Conversion Date”) and will be no more than 45 days or less than 15 days after the date on which the Company issues
the press release described in this Section 5(ii). 
 (iii) In addition to any information required by applicable law or
regulation, the press release and notice of a Forced Conversion described in this Section 5 shall state, as appropriate: 
 (a) the Forced Conversion Date; 
 (b) the Conversion Rate and whether the conversion obligation will be satisfied in
cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock; and 
 (c) that dividends on the Series A
Preferred Stock to be converted will cease to accumulate on the Forced Conversion Date. 
 The provisions under Section 9 hereof shall
apply as if the Forced Conversion Date were the date on which the Company received notice of conversion; provided that the provisions related to conversion retraction described in Section 9(ii)(b) shall not apply. 
 (iv) On and after the Forced Conversion Date, dividends shall cease to accumulate on the Series A Preferred Stock to be converted, all
rights of Holders of such Series A Preferred Stock shall terminate and all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall automatically convert at the applicable Conversion Rate. The dividend payment with respect to the Series A Preferred
Stock for which a Forced Conversion Date occurs during the period between the close of business on any Dividend Record Date to the close of business on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date will be payable on such Dividend Payment Date to the
record holder of such share on such Dividend Record Date. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, with respect to a Forced Conversion, no payment or adjustment will be made upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock for
accumulated and unpaid dividends or for dividends with respect to the Common Stock issued upon such conversion. 
 (v) The
Company may not authorize, issue a press release announcing or give notice of any Forced Conversion pursuant to Section 5(i) hereof unless, prior to giving the forced conversion notice, all accumulated and unpaid dividends on the Series A
Preferred Stock for periods ended prior to the date of such press release or notice shall have been paid. 
 (vi) In addition
to the Company’s right to call a Forced Conversion as described in Section 5(i) hereof, if fewer than 15% of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued by the Company on the Issue Date (plus 15% of any additional shares 

  

 6 

 
issued by the Company pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option with respect to such issuance) are outstanding, the Company shall have the
right, at any time on or after January 20, 2010, at its option in accordance with this clause (vi), to redeem for cash all such outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, to the extent of lawfully available funds therefor, at a redemption
price per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to the Liquidation Preference plus an amount equal to accumulated and unpaid dividends to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, for each share of Series A Preferred Stock. If the Redemption Date falls
after a Dividend Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding Dividend Payment Date, (a) the Company shall pay the full amount of accumulated and unpaid dividends payable on such Dividend Payment Date only to the holder of record at the
close of business on the corresponding Dividend Record Date and (b) the purchase price payable on the Redemption Date shall include only the Liquidation Preference, but shall not include any amount in respect of dividends declared and payable
on such corresponding Dividend Payment Date. The provisions of Section 5(iv) and Section 5(v) shall apply to any such redemption as if the Redemption Date were the Forced Conversion Date. To exercise the redemption right for the Series A
Preferred Stock as set forth in this Section 5(vi), the Company shall issue a notice by press release setting forth a redemption date (the “Redemption Date”) for the Series A Preferred Stock, which shall be at least 15 days but
no more than 45 days after the date of such notice, followed by a notice by mail or by publication (with subsequent prompt notice by mail) to Holders not more than seven Business Days after the date of such press release notice; provided that
the Company may not issue a redemption notice or press release, or otherwise exercise its redemption right set forth in this Section 5(vi), if at such time 15% or more of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued by the Company on the Issue
Date (plus 15% of any additional shares issued by the Company pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option with respect to such issuance) are outstanding or the Company shall not have paid all accumulated and unpaid dividends on the
Series A Preferred Stock for all dividend periods ended prior to the date of such press release or notice. On and after the Redemption Date, all rights of Holders will terminate except for the right to receive the redemption price for the shares of
Series A Preferred Stock redeemed. For the avoidance of doubt, the designation of a Redemption Date by the Company pursuant to this Section 5(vi) shall not terminate any conversion right with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock as set forth
in Section 6 below. 
 Section 6. Conversion at the Option of the Holder. 
 (i) Subject to the Company’s right to call a Forced Conversion as described in Section 5(i) hereof, each share of Series A
Preferred Stock will be convertible at any time at the option of the Holder thereof into approximately 0.7581 shares of Common Stock based on an initial conversion price of $65.95 per share (as such conversion price may be adjusted, the
“Conversion Price”) subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 7 hereof. Upon conversion, the Company shall have the right to deliver, in lieu of shares of Common Stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of Common
Stock, as set forth in Section 9 hereof. The conversion rate per share of Series A Preferred Stock at any time (as such conversion rate may be adjusted, the 

  

 7 

 
“Conversion Rate”) is equal to $50 divided by the Conversion Price at such time rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth, with five one
hundred-thousandths rounded upward (e.g., .76545 would be rounded up to .7655). Upon any conversion at a Holder’s option, the Holder shall not receive any cash payment representing accumulated and unpaid dividends on the Series A
Preferred Stock, whether or not in arrears, except as set forth in Section 6(ii) hereof. 
 (ii) Holders of shares of
Series A Preferred Stock at the close of business on a Dividend Record Date will be entitled to receive the dividend payment, if declared and paid, on such shares on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion of such
shares following such Dividend Record Date. However, shares of Series A Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion during the period between the close of business on any Dividend Record Date and the close of business on the Business Day immediately
preceding the applicable Dividend Payment Date must be accompanied by a payment in cash of an amount equal to the dividend payable on such shares of Series A Preferred Stock on that Dividend Payment Date (a) unless the Company has specified a
Forced Conversion Date during such period and conversion occurs at any time after the Company has issued the press release announcing such Forced Conversion, (b) unless the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Purchase Date during such
period or (c) except to the extent of any accumulated and unpaid dividends (for dividend periods other than the current dividend payment period). A Holder on a Dividend Record Date who (or whose transferee) tenders any shares for conversion on
the corresponding Dividend Payment Date shall receive the dividend payable by the Company if declared and paid on the Series A Preferred Stock on that date, and the converting holder shall not be required to include payment in the amount of such
dividend upon surrender of shares of Series A Preferred Stock for conversion. 
 (iii) Subject to Section 15(i) hereof,
the conversion right of a Holder shall be exercised by the Holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock represented by physical certificates other than the Global Preferred Stock by the surrender to the Company of the certificates representing
shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be converted at any time during usual business hours at its principal place of business or the offices of its duly appointed Transfer Agent to be maintained by it, accompanied by written notice to the Company in
the form of Exhibit A that the Holder elects to convert all or a portion of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock represented by such certificate and specifying the name or names (with address) in which a certificate or certificates representing
shares of Common Stock are to be issued and (if so required by the Company or its duly appointed Transfer Agent) by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company or its duly appointed Transfer Agent
duly executed by the Holder or its duly authorized legal representative and, if required, by payment of funds equal to dividends payable on the next Dividend Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled and by transfer tax stamps or funds
therefor, if required pursuant to Section 15(vii) hereof. Such conversion notice is irrevocable, unless the Company elects to settle all or a portion of the Conversion Value in cash, in which event such conversion notice may be retracted during
the Conversion Retraction Period. If a Holder’s shares of Series A Preferred 

  

 8 

 
Stock are represented by Global Preferred Stock, such Holder must comply with the Depositary’s procedures for converting a beneficial interest in such
Global Preferred Stock and, if required, pay funds equal to dividends payable on the next Dividend Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled and, if required by Section 15(vii) hereof, pay all taxes or duties, if any. The date on which
a Holder satisfies the foregoing requirements for conversion is referred to herein as the “Conversion Date.” If the Company elects to satisfy its conversion obligation only in shares of Common Stock, it will deliver the shares of
Common Stock due upon conversion, together with any cash in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with Section 13 hereof, no later than the third Business Day following the Conversion Date, except as set forth in Section 8(iii) and
Section 8(iv) hereof. If the Company elects to satisfy any portion of its conversion obligation in cash, it will deliver the shares of Common Stock (if any) and cash due upon conversion on the third Business Day following the last Trading Day
of the related Cash Settlement Averaging Period. Immediately prior to the close of business on the Conversion Date, each converting Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Holder’s
Series A Preferred Stock notwithstanding that the share register of the Company shall then be closed or that certificates representing such Common Stock shall not then be actually delivered to such Holder. On the Conversion Date all rights with
respect to the shares of Series A Preferred Stock so converted, including the rights, if any, to receive notices, will terminate, except the rights of Holders thereof to: (a) receive certificates representing the number of whole shares of
Common Stock into which such shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been converted and cash, in lieu of any fractional shares, in accordance with Section 13 hereof; (b) receive Additional Shares, cash or Reference Property, as applicable,
payable upon a Fundamental Change, in accordance with Section 8(iv); and (c) exercise the rights to which they are entitled as holders of Common Stock. 
 Section 7. Anti-Dilution Adjustments. 
 (i) Anti-Dilution Adjustments. The Conversion
Price shall be subject to the following adjustments from time to time: 
 (a) Stock Dividends. In case the Company shall pay
or make a dividend or other distribution to all holders of Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price, as in effect at the opening of business on the Business Day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders of
the Company entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution, shall be decreased by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on
the date fixed for such determination and the denominator shall be the sum of such number of shares and the total number of shares constituting such dividend or other distribution, such decrease to become effective immediately after the opening of
business on the Business Day following the date fixed for such determination. 
  

 9 

 (b) Stock Purchase Rights. In case the Company shall issue to all holders of its Common
Stock rights, options or warrants, entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock for a period expiring within 60 days from the date of issuance of such rights, options or warrants at a price per share of common stock (or having
a conversion price per share) less than the Market Value as of the date fixed for the determination of stockholders of the Company entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants (other than pursuant to a dividend reinvestment, share purchase
or similar plan), the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the Business Day following the date fixed for such determination shall be decreased by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration expected to be received by the Company upon the exercise,
conversion or exchange of such rights, options or warrants (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution) would purchase at such Market Value and the denominator
of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase, either directly or indirectly,
such decrease to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the Business Day following the date fixed for such determination; provided, however, that no such adjustment of Conversion Price shall be made if the Holders would
be entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants without conversion and based on the applicable Conversion Rate; provided further, however, that if any of the foregoing rights, options or warrants is only exercisable upon the
occurrence of a Triggering Event, then the Conversion Price will not be adjusted until such Triggering Event occurs. 
 (c)
Stock Splits; Reverse Splits; Reclassifications and Combinations. In case outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided, split or reclassified into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of
business on the Business Day following the day upon which such subdivision, split or reclassification becomes effective shall be proportionately decreased, and, conversely, in case outstanding shares of Common Stock shall each be combined or
reclassified into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect at the opening of business on the Business Day following the day upon which such combination or reclassification becomes effective shall be proportionately
increased, such increase or decrease, as the case may be, to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the Business Day following the day upon which such subdivision, split, reclassification or combination becomes effective.

 (d) Cash Distributions. In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, make distributions to all holders of its
Common Stock exclusively in cash (excluding any dividend or distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, or any distribution consisting of cash 

  

 10 

 
in part which is provided for in Section 7(i)(f) hereof) immediately after the close of business on such date for determination, the Conversion Price
shall be adjusted by dividing the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for determination of the stockholders of the Company entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction, (A) the
numerator of which shall be equal to the Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of the date fixed for such determination and (B) the denominator of which shall be equal to the Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of the date fixed for
such determination less the per share amount of the dividend or distribution. 
 (e) Common Stock Repurchase Premiums. In the
case that a tender or exchange offer made by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company for all or any portion of the Common Stock shall expire and such tender or exchange offer (as amended through the expiration thereof) shall require the payment
to stockholders of the Company (based on the acceptance, up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer, of Purchased Shares (as defined below)) of an aggregate consideration having a Fair Market Value (as determined in
good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution) per share of the Common Stock that exceeds the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the last date
on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, then, immediately prior to the opening of business on the Business Day after the last day (such day, the “Expiration Time”) tenders could have been
made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (as amended through the expiration thereof), the Conversion Price shall be decreased by multiplying the Conversion Price immediately prior to the close of business on the Expiration Time by a fraction
(1) the numerator of which shall be equal to (x) the product of (I) the Market Value as of the date of the Expiration Time and (II) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any Purchased Shares (as defined below))
on the Expiration Time less (y) the amount of cash plus the Fair Market Value (determined as aforesaid) of the aggregate consideration payable to stockholders of the Company pursuant to the tender or exchange offer (assuming the acceptance, up
to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer, of Purchased Shares (as defined below)), and (2) the denominator of which shall be equal to the product of (x) the Market Value as of the Expiration Time and
(y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any Purchased Shares (as defined below)) on the Expiration Time less the number of all shares validly tendered, not withdrawn and accepted for payment on the Expiration Time (such
validly tendered shares, up to any such maximum, being referred to as the “Purchased Shares”). 
 (f) Debt,
Asset or Security Distributions. In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness, assets or securities (but excluding any dividend or distributions referred to in
Section 7(i)(a), 7(i)(b), 7(i)(c), 7(i)(d) or 7(ii)), the Conversion Price shall be decreased by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination 

  

 11 

 
of stockholders of the Company entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Market Value of a share of Common
Stock as of the date fixed for such determination less the then Fair Market Value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution) of the portion of the assets or
evidences of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock and the denominator of which shall be the Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of the date fixed for such determination, such adjustment to become effective
immediately prior to the opening of business on the Business Day following the date fixed for the determination of stockholders of the Company entitled to receive such distribution. 
 (ii) Right and Warrants. If the Company distributes rights or warrants (other than those referred to above in Section 7(i)(b) hereof)
pro rata to the holders of Common Stock, so long as such rights or warrants have not expired or been redeemed by the Company, the Holder of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive upon such
conversion, in addition to the shares of Common Stock then issuable upon such conversion (the “Conversion Shares”), a number of rights or warrants to be determined as follows: 
 (a) if such conversion occurs on or prior to the date for the distribution to the holders of rights or warrants of separate certificates
evidencing such rights or warrants (the “Distribution Date”), the same number of rights or warrants to which a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Conversion Shares is entitled at the time of such
conversion in accordance with the terms and provisions applicable to the rights or warrants; and 
 (b) if such conversion
occurs after the Distribution Date, the same number of rights or warrants to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such Series A Preferred Stock was convertible immediately prior to such Distribution Date would have been
entitled on such Distribution Date had such Series A Preferred Stock been converted immediately prior to such Distribution Date in accordance with the terms and provisions applicable to the rights and warrants. 
 The Conversion Price shall not be subject to adjustment on account of any declaration, distribution or exercise of such rights or warrants. 
 (iii) De Minimis Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no adjustment under this Section 7 shall be made to
the Conversion Price unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent (1.0%) of the Conversion Price then in effect. Any lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time of and
together with the next subsequent adjustment, if any, which, together with any adjustment or adjustments so carried forward, shall amount to an increase or decrease of at least one percent (1.0%) of such Conversion Price; provided,
however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, all such carried forward adjustments shall be made at the time the Company shall have 

  

 12 

 
designated a Forced Conversion Date or upon giving a Fundamental Change Notice, and at the time of conversion of Series A Preferred Stock. No adjustment
under this Section 7 shall be made if such adjustment will result in a Conversion Price that is less than the par value of the Common Stock. All adjustments to the Conversion Price shall be calculated to the nearest 1/100th of a share of Common
Stock (or if there is not a nearest 1/100th of a share to the next lower  1/100th of a share). 
 (iv) Tax-Related Adjustments. The
Company may make such decreases in the Conversion Price, in addition to those required by this Section 7, as the Board of Directors considers advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock
resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes. 
 (v) Stockholder Rights Plans. Upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Holders shall receive, in addition to the shares of
Common Stock and any cash for fractional shares in accordance with Section 13 hereof, if any, the rights issued under any future stockholder rights plan the Company may establish whether or not such rights are separated from the Common Stock
prior to conversion. A distribution of rights pursuant to a stockholder rights plan will not result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to Section 7(i)(b), 7(i)(f) or 7(ii) provided that the Company has provided for the
Holders to receive such rights upon conversion. 
 (vi) Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted in
accordance with this Section 7, the Company shall (a) compute the Conversion Price in accordance with this Section 7 and prepare and transmit to the Transfer Agent an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the Conversion Price, the
method of calculation thereof in reasonable detail, and the facts requiring such adjustment and upon which such adjustment is based and (b) as soon as practicable following the occurrence of an event that requires an adjustment to the
Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 7 (or if the Company is not aware of such occurrence, as soon as practicable after becoming so aware), the Company or, at the request and expense of the Company, the Transfer Agent shall provide a
written notice to the Holders of the occurrence of such event and a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the method by which the adjustment to the Conversion Price was determined and setting forth the adjusted Conversion Price. 

(vii) Reversal of Adjustment. If the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them
to receive a dividend or other distribution, and shall thereafter (and before the dividend or distribution has been paid or delivered to stockholders) legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution, then thereafter no
adjustment in the Conversion Price then in effect shall be required by reason of the taking of such record. 
 (viii)
Exceptions to Adjustment. The applicable Conversion Price shall not be adjusted: 
 (a) upon the issuance of any shares of
Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Company’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan;

  

 13 

 (b) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or options or rights to purchase
those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; 
 (c) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible
security outstanding as of the Issue Date (including any shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued upon the exercise of any underwriter over-allotment option); 
 (d) for a change in the par value or no par value of Common Stock; or 
 (e) for accumulated and unpaid dividends. 
 Section 8. Fundamental Change. 
 (i) Within ten Trading Days after the Effective Date of
a Fundamental Change (or, in the case of a Fundamental Change described in clause (b) of the definition of such term, within ten Trading Days prior to the anticipated Effective Date of such Fundamental Change) (the “Fundamental Change
Notice Date”), the Company shall give notice of such Fundamental Change in accordance with Section 11(ii) hereof to each record holder of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Fundamental Change Notice”). Such Fundamental
Change Notice shall state: 
 (a) the events causing the Fundamental Change; 
 (b) the Effective Date or anticipated Effective Date of such Fundamental Change; 
 (c) the purchase price and whether that price will be paid in cash, shares of Common Stock, or a combination of cash and shares of Common
Stock; 
 (d) the name and address of the Transfer Agent; and 
 (e) if applicable, the expected determination of the number of Additional Shares to be added to the Conversion Rate as set forth pursuant
to Section 8(iv) below. 
 Simultaneously with the Fundamental Change Notice, the Company shall issue a press release and publish a notice containing
the foregoing information in a newspaper of general circulation in The City of New York or publish the information on its website or through such other public medium as the Company may use at that time and deliver a copy of such notice to the
Transfer Agent. 
  

 14 

 (ii) Upon the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock in connection with a Fundamental
Change, a Holder will be entitled to receive a cash payment for all accumulated and unpaid dividends. If the Effective Date is a date that is prior to the close of business on any Dividend Record Date, however, the Holder will not be entitled to
receive any portion of the dividend payable for such period on such converted shares on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date. If the Effective Date is a date that is after the close of business on any Dividend Record Date and prior to the close
of business on the corresponding Dividend Payment Date, all dividends, including accumulated and unpaid dividends, whether or not in arrears, with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock converted on such date, will be payable on such Dividend
Payment Date to the record Holder of such shares on such Dividend Record Date. 
 (iii) Purchase or Exchange Upon a
Fundamental Change. 
 (a) Upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, Holders shall have the right, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Certificate of Designations (including, without limitation, the availability of legally available funds to the Company), to require the Company to repurchase all of, or any portion of, such Holders’ shares of Series A
Preferred Stock. The Company shall purchase such Series A Preferred Stock at a price equal to 100% of the Liquidation Preference plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends, to, but excluding, the date that is not less than 30 nor more than 60 days
after the Company mails notice of the occurrence of such Fundamental Change (the “Fundamental Change Purchase Date”). If the Fundamental Change Purchase Date falls after a Dividend Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding
Dividend Payment Date, (1) the Company shall pay the full amount of accumulated and unpaid dividends payable on such Dividend Payment Date only to the holder of record at the close of business on the corresponding Dividend Record Date and
(2) the purchase price payable on the Fundamental Change Purchase Date shall include only the Liquidation Preference, but shall not include any amount in respect of dividends declared and payable on such corresponding dividend payment date.

 (b) The Company may, subject to legally available funds, elect to pay the purchase price in cash, shares of Common Stock,
or a combination of cash and Common Stock. If the Company elects to pay all or a portion of the purchase price in shares of Common Stock, such shares of Common Stock shall be valued at a discount of 5% below the average of the daily Volume-Weighted
Average Price per share for the ten consecutive Trading Days ending on the third Trading Day prior to the Fundamental Change Purchase Date; provided, however, that the Company shall not pay the purchase price in shares of Common Stock or a
combination of shares of Common Stock and cash unless (1) the Company shall have given a timely Fundamental Change Notice including its intention to pay the purchase price or a specified percentage of the 

  

 15 

 
purchase price with shares of Common Stock and (2) such shares of Common Stock are registered under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, in each
case, if required. 
 (c) To exercise the right to require the Company to repurchase shares of Series A Preferred Stock as set
forth under 9(ii)(a) herein, Holders must deliver a written notice (the “Fundamental Change Purchase Notice”) to the Transfer Agent prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change
Purchase Date. The Fundamental Change Purchase Notice must state: 
 (1) if certificated shares of Series A Preferred Stock
have been issued, the Series A Preferred Stock certificate numbers, or if not, such information as may be required under the Depositary’s applicable procedures; 
 (2) the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be purchased; and 
 (3) that the Company is to purchase such Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Series A Preferred Stock
and this Certificate of Designations. 
 (d) Holders may withdraw any Fundamental Change Purchase Notice by a written notice
of withdrawal delivered to the Transfer Agent prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Purchase Date. The notice of withdrawal must state: 
 (1) the number of the withdrawn shares of Series A Preferred Stock; 
 (2) if certificated shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been issued, the Series A Preferred Stock certificate numbers, or if not,
such information as may be required under the Depositary’s applicable procedures; and 
 (3) the number, if any, of
shares of Series A Preferred Stock that remain subject to the Fundamental Change Purchase Notice. 
 (e) Holders must either
effect book-entry transfer or deliver the Series A Preferred Stock to be purchased, together with necessary endorsements, to the office of the Transfer Agent after delivery of the Fundamental Change Purchase Notice to receive payment of the
fundamental change purchase price. Holders shall receive payment in cash or shares of Common Stock, as applicable, on the later of the Fundamental Change Purchase Date or the time of book-entry transfer or the delivery of the Series A Preferred
Stock. If the Transfer Agent holds cash or securities sufficient to pay the fundamental change purchase price of the Series A Preferred Stock on the 

  

 16 

 
Business Day following the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, then, immediately after the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, whether or not book-entry transfer
of the Series A Preferred Stock is made or whether or not the Series A Preferred Stock is delivered to the Transfer Agent or the Depositary: 1) the shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall cease to be outstanding; 2) dividends shall cease to accrue;
and 3) all other rights of such Holders shall terminate. 
 (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be
required to purchase shares of Series A Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change if (1) a third party agrees to purchase the shares of Series A Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change in the manner, at the
times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Certificate of Designations applicable to a purchase of shares of Series A Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change and (2) the third party purchases
the shares of Series A Preferred Stock on such basis. 
 (iv) Adjustment to the Conversion Rate Upon a Fundamental Change.

 (a) If a Holder converts its Series A Preferred Stock at any time beginning on the Fundamental Change Notice Date after a
notice is given to Holders regarding a Fundamental Change described in clause (b) of the definition of that term, and ending at the close of business on the 30th Trading Day immediately following the Effective Date of such Fundamental Change,
the Company will increase the applicable Conversion Rate by a number of additional shares (the “Additional Shares”) for such Series A Preferred Stock as described in Section 8(iv)(b) hereof; provided that (a) such
increase in the Conversion Rate shall not take place if such Fundamental Change is not consummated and (b) the Company shall issue shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Rate (without such increase) on or prior to the fifth Business Day
following the Conversion Date and the Additional Shares described in Section 8(iv)(b) hereof will be issued after the later to occur of (i) the fifth Business Day following the Effective Date of such Fundamental Change and (ii) the
fifth Business Day following the relevant Conversion Date. On and after the Effective Date, Holders entitled to receive Additional Shares pursuant to this Section 8(iv)(a) shall, as set forth under Section 10 below, receive Reference
Property based on the number of Additional Shares set forth above. 
 (b) The number of Additional Shares will be determined
by reference to the table below, based on the Effective Date and the price of the Common Stock (the “Stock Price”). If the consideration (excluding cash payments for fractional shares or pursuant to statutory appraisal rights) for
the Common Stock consists solely of cash, then the Stock Price will be the cash amount paid per share of the Common Stock. Otherwise, the Stock Price will be the average of the Closing Sale Price per share of the Common Stock for the five
consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the Effective Date of such Fundamental Change. 
  

 17 

 (c) The following table sets forth the number of Additional Shares per share of Series A
Preferred Stock to be added to the Conversion Rate in connection with the Fundamental Change referred to in Section 8(iv)(a):

 The Stock Prices set forth in the table will be adjusted as of any date on which the Conversion Price of the
Series A Preferred Stock is adjusted. The adjusted Stock Prices will equal the Stock Prices applicable immediately prior to the adjustment divided by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Conversion Price immediately prior to the adjustment to
the Conversion Price and the denominator of which is the Conversion Price as so adjusted. 
 (v) The exact Stock Price and
Effective Date may not be set forth in the table, in which case: 
 (1) if the Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the
table or the Effective Date is between two Effective Dates in the table, the number of Additional Shares will be determined by straight-line interpolation between the Additional Share amounts set forth for the higher and lower Stock Prices and the
two Effective Dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year; 
 (2) if the Stock Price is in excess of $199.12 per share
(subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Price), no Additional Shares will be added to the Conversion Rate; and 
 (3) if the Stock Price is less than or equal to $52.77 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Price), no Additional Shares will be added to the Conversion Rate. 
 Section 9. Settlement Upon Conversion. 
 (i) Pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Section 9, upon a conversion the Company shall have the right to deliver the Conversion Value, in lieu of shares of Common Stock, in cash or a combination of cash
and shares of Common Stock, provided that the Company may only elect to deliver cash if its credit facilities in existence at that time permit such payment and assets are legally available to pay such amounts. Unless the Company has elected
to call a Forced Conversion, it shall not be required to notify Holders of its method for settling its conversion obligation relating to the Conversion Value until the Series A Preferred Stock is submitted for conversion. 
  

 18 

 (ii) If the Company receives a conversion notice from a Holder of Series A Preferred
Stock, the following procedures shall apply: 
 (a) During the Settlement Notice Period, the Company shall notify any Holders
of Series A Preferred Stock exercising a conversion right, if the Company elects to settle any portion of its conversion obligation in whole or in part in cash. If the Company elects to settle the Conversion Value in a combination of cash and shares
of Common Stock, it shall specify the percentage of the Conversion Value relating to the Series A Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion that will be paid in cash. Any portion of the Conversion Value which the Company does not elect to settle in
cash shall be settled in shares of Common Stock (except that the Company shall pay cash in lieu of issuing any fractional shares). The Company shall treat all Holders converting on the same Trading Day in the same manner. The Company shall not,
however, have any obligation to settle conversion obligations arising on different Trading Days in the same manner. For example, the Company may choose on one Trading Day to settle in shares of Common Stock only and choose on another Trading Day to
settle in cash or a combination of shares of Common Stock and cash. 
 (b) If the Company timely elects to pay cash for any
portion of the Conversion Value, Holders may retract the conversion notice at any time during the Conversion Retraction Period; provided that no such retraction may be made (and a conversion notice shall be irrevocable) if the Company does
not elect to deliver cash in lieu of shares of Common Stock (other than cash in lieu of fractional shares). 
 (c) Settlement
amounts shall be computed as follows: 
 1) If the Company elects to satisfy a conversion solely in shares of Common Stock
(other than with respect to fractional shares), it shall deliver to the Holder, for each share of Series A Preferred Stock, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the applicable Conversion Rate. 
 2) If the Company elects to satisfy a conversion solely in cash, it shall deliver to the Holder, for each share of Series A Preferred
Stock, cash in an amount equal to the Conversion Value. 
 3) If the Company elects to satisfy the conversion obligation in a
combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, it shall deliver to the Holder, for each share of Series A Preferred Stock: 
 (i) a cash amount (the “Cash Amount”) (excluding any cash paid for fractional shares) equal to the product of (a) the Conversion Value and (b) the percentage of the conversion obligation to be satisfied in cash;
and 
 (ii) a number of shares of common stock equal to the difference between: (a) the applicable Conversion Rate; minus
(b) the number 

  

 19 

 
of shares of common stock equal to the quotient of (x) the Cash Amount divided by (y) the arithmetic average of the Volume-Weighted Average Price
of the Common Stock on each Trading Day during the Cash Settlement Averaging Period. 
 Section 10. Recapitalizations, Reclassifications
and Changes in the Company’s Stock. 
 (i) In the event of any reclassification of Common Stock (other than a change in
par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value), or any consolidation or merger of the Company (other than with a Subsidiary of the Company) with or into another Person or any merger of another Person with or into
the Company (other than, in any of the cases described above, a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the resulting or surviving Person and which does not result in any reclassification or change of outstanding Common Stock), or any sale
or other disposition to another Person (other than to a subsidiary of the Company) of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (computed on a consolidated basis) other than in connection with a liquidation or winding up of the Company
(any of the foregoing, a “Transaction”), upon conversion of its shares of Series A Preferred Stock on and after the related effective date for such Transaction, a Holder will be entitled to receive the kind and amount of securities
(of the Company or another issuer), cash and other property receivable upon such Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series A Preferred Stock were convertible into immediately prior to such
Transaction, after giving effect to any adjustment event (the “Reference Property”). The provisions of this Section 10(i) and any equivalent thereof in any such securities similarly shall apply to successive Transactions. For
purposes of this paragraph, the type and amount of Reference Property to which a holder of Common Stock would have been entitled in the case of a reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or other disposition that causes the Common Stock to be
converted into the right to receive more than a single type of consideration, determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election, shall be deemed to be (a) the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by
the holders of Common Stock that affirmatively make such an election or (b) if no holders of Common Stock make such an election, the types and amount of consideration actually received by such holders. 
 (ii) This provision does not limit the rights of Holders in the event of a Fundamental Change, including the Company’s obligation to
increase the Conversion Rate by the additional number of shares in connection with a conversion or the Company’s right to elect to adjust the conversion obligation pursuant to Section 9 hereof. 
 Section 11. Notices. 
 (i) When the Company is required, pursuant to this Certificate of Designations, to give notice to Holders by issuing a press release, rather than directly to holders, the Company shall do so in a public medium that is customary for such

  

 20 

 
press release; provided, however, that in such cases, publication of a press release through the Dow Jones News Service shall be considered sufficient
to comply with such notice obligation. 
 (ii) When the Company is required, pursuant to this Certificate of Designations, to
give notice to Holders without specifying the method of giving such notice, the Company may do so by sending notice via first class mail or by overnight courier to the Holders of record as of a reasonably current date or by publication, as provided
in Section 11(iii) hereof. 
 (iii) When the Company is required, pursuant to this Certificate of Designations, to give
notice by publication, the Company shall do so by publishing a notice in the national edition of The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times or a newspaper of national circulation chosen in good faith by the Company. 
 (iv) When the Company is required to give notice herein to any Holder within a specified number of Trading Days prior to a specified
event, the Company will identify such Trading Days in good faith based on its reasonable expectations for the application of the definition of “Trading Days” set forth herein. Any notice issued in reliance on such identification will
satisfy the Company’s obligation with respect to the timing of such notice, notwithstanding any subsequent events that may cause such days to fail to be Trading Days. 
 Section 12. Form. 
 (i)
The shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be issued in the form of one or more permanent global shares (each, a share of “Global Preferred Stock”) in definitive, fully registered form with the global legend (the “Global
Stock Legend”) as set forth on the form of Series A Preferred Stock Certificate attached hereto as Exhibit B, which is hereby incorporated in and expressly made a part of the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock. 
 (ii) Each share of Global Preferred Stock may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rules, agreements to
which the Company is subject, if any, or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement is in a form acceptable to the Company). The shares of Global Preferred Stock shall be deposited on behalf of the Holders represented
thereby with the Transfer Agent as custodian for the Depositary, and registered in the name of the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary, duly executed by the Company and countersigned and registered by the Transfer Agent as hereinafter
provided. 
 (iii) The aggregate number of shares represented by each share of Global Preferred Stock may from time to time be
increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Transfer Agent and the Depositary or its nominee as hereinafter provided. This Section 12 shall apply only to a share of Global Preferred Stock deposited with or on behalf of the
Depositary. The Company shall execute and the Transfer Agent shall, in accordance with this Section 12, countersign 

  

 21 

 
and deliver initially one or more shares of Global Preferred Stock that (a) shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co. or other nominee of
the Depositary and (b) shall be delivered by the Transfer Agent to Cede & Co. or pursuant to instructions received from Cede & Co. or held by the Transfer Agent as custodian for the Depositary pursuant to an agreement between
the Depositary and the Transfer Agent. 
 (iv) Members of, or participants in, the Depositary (“Agent
Members”) shall have no rights under this Certificate of Designations with respect to any share of Global Preferred Stock held on their behalf by the Depositary or by the Transfer Agent as the custodian of the Depositary, or under such
share of Global Preferred Stock, and the Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Transfer Agent and any agent of the Company or the Transfer Agent as the absolute owner of such share of Global Preferred Stock for all purposes whatsoever.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Transfer Agent or any agent of the Company or the Transfer Agent from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary
or impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices of the Depositary governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any shares of Global Preferred Stock. 
 (v) Owners of beneficial interests in shares of Global Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to receive physical delivery of certificated
shares of Series A Preferred Stock, unless (x) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the shares of Global Preferred Stock or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency
registered under the Exchange Act and, in either case a successor is not appointed within 90 days or (y) the Company in its discretion determines not to have any of the Series A Preferred Stock represented by the shares of Global Preferred
Stock. Any Series A Preferred Stock that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence is exchangeable for certificated shares of Series A Preferred Stock issuable for such number of shares and registered in such names as the Depositary shall
direct. Subject to the foregoing, the shares of Global Preferred Stock are not exchangeable, except for shares of Global Preferred Stock representing the same aggregate number of shares and registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee.

 (vi)(a) An Officer shall sign the share of Global Preferred Stock for the Company, in accordance with the Company’s
bylaws and applicable law, by manual or facsimile signature. 
 (b) If an Officer whose signature is on a share of Global
Preferred Stock no longer holds that office at the time the Transfer Agent countersigns the share of Global Preferred Stock, the share of Global Preferred Stock shall be valid nevertheless. 
 (c) A share of Global Preferred Stock shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Transfer Agent manually countersigns such
share of Global Preferred Stock. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that such 

  

 22 

 
share of Global Preferred Stock has been authenticated under the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock. Each share of Global Preferred Stock shall be dated
the date of its authentication. 
 Section 13. Fractional Shares. 
 No fractional shares of Common Stock or securities representing fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued to Holders upon conversion. In lieu of
any fraction of a share of Common Stock that would otherwise be issuable in respect of the aggregate number of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock surrendered by a Holder upon a conversion, such Holder shall have the right to receive an amount in
cash (computed to the nearest cent) equal to the same fraction of (a) in the case of any payment of a stock dividend or payment in connection with an increased Conversion Rate, the Closing Sale Price on the Trading Day next preceding the
issuance of such Common Stock or (b) in the case of Common Stock issuable upon conversion, the Closing Sale Price on the Trading Day next preceding the Conversion Date.

Payments, transfers, deliveries, exchanges and other matters relating to beneficial interests in global security certificates may be subject to various policies and procedures adopted by the Depositary from time to time including procedures for the
payment of funds equal to dividends payable to which a Holder is not entitled upon conversion and taxes or duties, if any. 
 (ii) The liquidation preference and the annual dividend rate set forth herein each shall be subject to equitable adjustment whenever there shall occur a stock split, combination, reclassification or other similar event involving the Series

payable in respect of the issue or delivery of shares of Common Stock or other securities or property upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant thereto; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax
that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of shares of Common Stock or other securities or property in a name other than that of the Holder of the Series A Preferred Stock to be converted and no such issue or
delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issue or delivery has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax or established, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company, that such tax has been paid or is not applicable.

 (ix) The Series A Preferred Stock is not entitled to any preemptive or subscription rights in respect of any securities of
the Company. 
 (x) Whenever possible, each provision hereof shall be interpreted in a manner as to be effective and valid
under applicable law, but if any provision hereof is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating or otherwise adversely
affecting the remaining provisions hereof. If a court of competent jurisdiction should determine that a provision hereof would be valid or enforceable if a period of time were extended or shortened or a particular percentage were increased or
decreased, then such court may make such change as shall be necessary to render the provision in question effective and valid under applicable law. 
 (xi) Series A Preferred Stock may be issued in fractions of a share which shall entitle the Holder, in proportion to such Holder’s fractional shares, to exercise voting rights, receive dividends, participate in
distributions and have the benefit of all other rights of Holders of Series A Preferred Stock. 
  

 31 

 (xii) Subject to applicable escheat laws, any monies set aside by the Company in respect
of any payment with respect to shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, or dividends thereon, and unclaimed at the end of two years from the date upon which such payment is due and payable shall revert to the general funds of the Company, after which
reversion the Holders of such shares shall look only to the general funds of the Company for the payment thereof. Any interest accumulated on funds so deposited shall be paid to the Company from time to time.

and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, other than those specifically set forth in this Certificate of Designations or the Certificate of Incorporation.

voting powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights of Series A Preferred Stock and qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof shall, nevertheless, remain in full force and effect, and no voting
powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights of Series A Preferred Stock and qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof herein set forth shall be deemed dependent upon any other such voting powers,
preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights of Series A Preferred Stock and qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof unless so expressed herein. 
 (xvi) Shares of Series A Preferred Stock that (a) have not been issued on or
before [            ]2 or (b) have been issued and
reacquired in any manner, including shares of Series A Preferred Stock purchased or redeemed or exchanged or converted, shall (upon compliance with any applicable provisions of the laws of Delaware) have the status of authorized but unissued shares
of preferred stock of the Company undesignated as to series and may be designated or redesignated and issued or reissued, as the case may be, as part of any series of preferred stock of the Company, provided that any issuance of such shares
as Series A Preferred Stock must be in compliance with the terms hereof.

or destroyed, a new Series A Preferred Stock certificate of like tenor and representing an equivalent amount of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, but only upon receipt of evidence of such loss, theft or destruction of such Series A Preferred Stock
certificate and bond and indemnity, if requested, satisfactory to the Company and the Transfer Agent.

and by virtue of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (“DGCL”), hereby certifies as follows pursuant to Sections 242 and 245 of the DGCL: 
 1. The original Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation (the “Original Certificate”) was filed in the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Secretary of State”) on September 14,
2005. 
 2. The Original Certificate was amended and restated on September 26, 2006 (the “Amended and Restated Certificate”).

 1

each series shall be such as are fixed by the Board of Directors, authority so to do being hereby expressly granted, and as are stated and expressed in a resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors providing for the issue of such
series of Preferred Stock (herein called the “Directors’ Resolution”). Such Directors’ Resolution may (i) limit the number of shares of such series that may be issued, (ii) provide for a sinking fund for the purchase or
redemption of shares of such series and specify the terms and conditions governing the operations of any such fund, (iii) grant voting rights to the holders of shares of such series, (iv) impose conditions or restrictions upon the creation
of indebtedness of the Corporation or upon the issuance of additional Preferred Stock or other capital stock ranking on a parity therewith, or prior thereto, with respect to dividends or distribution of assets upon liquidation, (v) impose
conditions or restrictions upon the payment of dividends upon, or the making of other distributions to, or the acquisition of, shares ranking junior to the Preferred Stock or to any series thereof with respect to dividends or distributions of assets
upon liquidation, (vi) state the time or times, the price or prices or the rate or rates of exchange and other terms, conditions and adjustments upon which shares of any such series may be made convertible into, or exchangeable for, at the

(vii) grant such other special rights and impose such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereon as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors, to the extent not inconsistent with this Article FOURTH and to the full extent now or
hereafter permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware. 
 (2) Except as expressly provided by law, or except as may be provided in any
Directors’ Resolution, the Preferred Stock shall have no right or power to vote on any question or in any proceeding or to be represented at, or to receive notice of, any meeting of stockholders of the Corporation. 
 (3) Preferred Stock that is redeemed, purchased or retired by the Corporation shall assume the status of authorized but unissued Preferred Stock and may
thereafter, subject to the provisions of any Directors’ Resolution providing for the issue of any particular series of Preferred Stock, be reissued in the same manner as authorized but unissued Preferred Stock. 
 B. Common Stock. All shares of the Common Stock of the Corporation shall be identical and, except as otherwise required by law or as otherwise provided
in the Directors’ Resolution or Resolutions, if any, adopted by the Board of Directors with respect to any series of Preferred Stock, the holders of the Common Stock shall exclusively possess all voting power, and each share of Common Stock
shall have one vote. 
  

 2 

 FIFTH: In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by law, subject to any limitations contained
elsewhere in this Certificate of Incorporation, bylaws of the Corporation may be adopted, amended or repealed by a majority of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, but any bylaws adopted by the Board of Directors may be amended or repealed by
the stockholders entitled to vote thereon. Election of directors need not be by written ballot. 
 SIXTH: The business and affairs of the Corporation shall
be managed by and under the direction of the Board of Directors. In addition to the powers and authorities conferred upon the Board of Directors by the DGCL or by the other provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation, the Board of Directors is
hereby authorized and empowered to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be exercised or done by the Corporation, subject to the provisions of the DGCL, this Certificate of Incorporation and any bylaws of the Corporation;
provided, however, that no bylaws hereafter adopted by the Corporation, or any amendments thereto, shall invalidate any prior act of the Board of Directors that would have been valid if such bylaws or amendment had not been adopted. 
 The number of directors shall be fixed from time to time exclusively by resolution adopted by a
majority of the directors then in office, but shall consist of not fewer than three (3) nor more than ten (10) directors, subject, however, to increases above ten (10) members as may be required in order to permit the holders of any
series of Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation to elect directors under specified circumstances. Subject to the preceding sentence, the maximum number of directors may not be increased by the Board of Directors to exceed ten (10) without
the affirmative vote of 66- 2/3% of the members of the entire Board of Directors. 
 The directors, other than those who may be elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, shall be divided into three classes as nearly equal
in size as is practicable. The Board of Directors shall by resolution designate the Class I, Class II and Class III directors, whose terms shall expire at the annual meetings of stockholders in 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively. At each annual
stockholders’ meeting after the adoption of this Certificate of Incorporation, each director to replace those of a class whose terms expire at such annual meeting shall be elected to hold office until the third succeeding annual meeting of
stockholders and shall serve until that director’s respective successor shall have been duly elected and qualified or until that director’s earlier death, resignation or removal. If the number of directors is hereafter changed, any newly
created directorships or decrease in directorships shall be so apportioned among the classes as to make all classes as nearly equal in number as is practicable, but each director then continuing to serve as such shall nevertheless continue as a
director of the class of which that director is a member until the expiration of that director’s term or until that director’s earlier death, resignation or removal. 
 No director may be removed before the expiration of his term of office except for cause and then only by the affirmative vote of the holders of not less
than a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of the Corporation entitled to vote 

  

 3 

 
generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. The Board of Directors may not remove any director, and no recommendation by the
Board of Directors that a director be removed may be made to the Stockholders unless such recommendation is set forth in a resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than 66-2/3% of the number of directors then in office. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, whenever the holders of any class or series of Preferred Stock are entitled to elect one or more directors by this Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of such class or series may remove such director(s) with or without cause
(unless otherwise provided in the terms of the class or series of Preferred Stock entitled to elect such director) before the expiration of his term of office by the affirmative vote of holders of not less than a majority (or such other percentage
as is specified in the terms of the class or series of Preferred Stock electing such director) of all outstanding shares of such class or series of Preferred Stock. 
 Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of
the stockholders of the Corporation and may not be effected by any consent in writing by such stockholders. 
 SEVENTH: A director of the Corporation shall
not be personally liable either to the Corporation or to any of its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its
stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for any matter in respect of which such director shall be liable under Section 174 of Title 8 of
the DGCL or any amendment thereto or successor provision thereof, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. Neither amendment nor repeal of this Article SEVENTH nor the adoption of any provision
of the Certificate of Incorporation inconsistent with this Article SEVENTH shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this Article SEVENTH in respect of any matter occurring, or any cause of action, suit or claim that, but for this Article SEVENTH,
would accrue or arise, prior to such amendment, repeal or adoption of any inconsistent provision. If the DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a
director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended. 
 EIGHTH: To the maximum extent
permitted by Delaware law in effect from time to time, the Corporation shall indemnify and, without requiring a preliminary determination of the ultimate entitlement to indemnification, shall pay or reimburse reasonable expenses in advance of final
disposition of a proceeding to (a) any individual who is a present or former director or officer of the Corporation and who is made a party to the proceeding by reason of his service in that capacity or (b) any individual who, while a
director of the Corporation and at the request of the Corporation, serves or has served another corporation, real estate investment trust, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or any other enterprise as a director, officer,
partner or trustee of such corporation, real estate investment trust, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise and who is made a party to the proceeding by reason of 

  

 4 

 
his service in that capacity against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses actually incurred by them, unless it is established
that (i) the act or omission of the director or officer was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and (A) was committed in bad faith or (B) was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty, (ii) the director or
officer actually received an improper personal benefit, or (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, the director or officer had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. The Corporation may, with the approval of
its Board of Directors, provide such indemnification and advance for expenses to a person who served a predecessor of the Corporation in any of the capacities described in (a) or (b) above and to any employee or agent of the Corporation or
a predecessor of the Corporation. 
 The Corporation shall, as a condition to advancing expenses to a director or officer, obtain a written
undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay the amount paid or reimbursed by the Corporation if it shall ultimately be determined that such persons are not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation under Delaware law or any
applicable contract. 
 Neither the amendment nor repeal of this Article EIGHTH, nor the adoption or amendment of any other provision of this
Certificate of Incorporation inconsistent with this Article EIGHTH shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this Article EIGHTH in respect of any matter occurring, or any cause of action, suit or claim that, but for this Article EIGHTH, would accrue
or arise, prior to such amendment, repeal or adoption of an inconsistent provision. 
 The Corporation shall have the power to purchase and
maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, employee benefit plan trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether of not the Corporation
would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of this Article EIGHTH or otherwise. 
 NINTH: The Corporation is
to have perpetual existence.

the mandatory provisions of the DGCL or the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, such provisions of the DGCL and the Certificate of Incorporation, as the case may be, will be controlling.

Records. The books and records of the Corporation may be kept at the Corporation’s principal office in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma or at such other locations within or outside the State of Delaware as may from time to time be designated by the

 Meetings of Stockholders 
 Section 2.1. Annual Meetings. An annual meeting of the Corporation’s
stockholders (the “Stockholders”) shall be held each calendar year for the purposes of (i) electing directors as provided in Article III and (ii) transacting such other business as may properly be brought before the
meeting. Each annual meeting shall be held on such date (no later than 13 months after the date of the last annual meeting of Stockholders) and at such time as shall be designated by the Board of Directors and stated in the notice or waivers of
notice of such meeting. 

 Section 2.2. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Stockholders, for any purpose or
purposes, may be fixed at any time by the Chairman of the Board (if any) or the Chief Executive Officer and shall be called by the Secretary within ten (10) days after the written request, or by resolution adopted by the affirmative vote, of a
majority of the total number of directors then in office, which request or resolution shall fix the date, time and place, and state the purpose or purposes, of the proposed meeting. Except as provided by applicable law, these Bylaws or the
Certificate of Incorporation, Stockholders shall not be entitled to call a special meeting of Stockholders or to require the Board of Directors or any officer to call such a meeting or to propose business at such a meeting. Business transacted at
any special meeting of Stockholders shall be limited to the purposes stated in the notice or waivers of notice of such meeting. 
 Section 2.3. Place of Meetings. The Board of Directors may designate the place of meeting (either within or without the State of Delaware) for any meeting of Stockholders. If no designation is made by the Board of Directors, the
place of meeting shall be held at the principal executive office of the Corporation. In addition, the Board of Directors may determine that the meeting shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communications
as authorized by these Bylaws. 
 Section 2.4. Notice of Meetings. 
 (a) Written notice of each meeting of Stockholders shall be delivered to each Stockholder of record entitled to vote thereat, which notice shall
(i) state the place, if any, date and time of the meeting, the means of remote communications, if any, by which Stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at any such meeting and, in the case of a special
meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, and (ii) be given not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting. 
 (b) Each notice of a meeting of Stockholders shall be given as provided in Section 9.1, except that if no address appears on the Corporation’s books or stock transfer records with respect to any Stockholder,
notice to such Stockholder shall be deemed to have been given if sent by first-class mail or telecommunication to the Corporation’s principal executive office or if published at least once in a newspaper of general circulation in the county
where such principal executive office is located. 
 (c) If any notice addressed to a Stockholder at the address of such Stockholder
appearing on the books of the Corporation is returned to the Corporation by the United States Postal Service marked to indicate that the United States Postal Service is unable to deliver the notice to the Stockholder at such address, all further
notices to such Stockholder at such address shall be deemed to have been duly given without further mailing if the same shall be available to such Stockholder upon written demand of such Stockholder at the principal executive office of the
Corporation for a period of one year from the date of the giving of such notice. 
 (d) Any previously scheduled meeting of the Stockholders
may be postponed by resolution of the Board of Directors upon public notice given prior to the time previously scheduled for such meeting.

 Section 2.5. Voting List. At least 10 days before each meeting of Stockholders, the Secretary
or other officer or agent of the Corporation who has charge of the Corporation’s stock ledger shall prepare a complete list of the Stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting, arranged in alphabetical order and showing, with respect to each
Stockholder, his address and the number of shares registered in his name. Such list shall be open to the examination of any Stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least 10 days
prior to the meeting: (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the
principal place of business of the Corporation. If the list is made available on an electronic network, then the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to Stockholders. If the meeting is to held at a
place, the list shall be produced and kept at the time of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any Stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall
also be open to the examination of any Stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonable accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting. The stock
ledger of the Corporation shall be the only evidence as to who are the Stockholders entitled to examine any list required by this Section 2.5 or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of Stockholders and the number of shares held by them.

 Section 2.6. Quorum and Adjournment. The holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of the
Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Voting Stock”), present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of Stockholders, except as otherwise provided by
applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws. If a quorum is present at any meeting of Stockholders, such quorum shall not be broken by the withdrawal of enough Stockholders to leave less than a quorum and the Stockholders may
continue to transact business until adjournment, provided that any action taken (other than adjournment) is approved by at least a majority of the shares required to constitute a quorum. If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of
Stockholders, the holders of a majority of the voting stock represented at such meeting or, if no Stockholder entitled to vote is present at such meeting, any officer of the Corporation may adjourn such meeting from time to time until a quorum shall
be present. Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, the chairman of any meeting of Stockholders shall have the right, acting in his sole discretion, to adjourn such meeting from time to time. 
 Section 2.7. Adjourned Meetings. When a meeting of Stockholders is adjourned to another time or place, unless otherwise provided by these
Bylaws, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time, place, if any, thereof, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed present in person and vote at such adjourned
meeting, are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken; provided, however, if an adjournment is for more than 30 days or if after an adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned
meeting shall be given to each Stockholder entitled to vote thereat. At any adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present in person or by proxy, the Stockholders entitled to vote thereat may transact any business which might have been
transacted at the meeting as originally noticed. 
  

 3 

 Section 2.8. Voting. 
 (a) Election of directors at all meetings of Stockholders shall be by written ballot, unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation; if
authorized by the Board of Directors, such requirement of a written ballot shall be satisfied by a ballot submitted by electronic transmission, provided that any such electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information
from which it can determined that electronic transmission was authorized by the Stockholder or proxy holder. Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares
present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, all matters other than the election of
directors submitted to the Stockholders at any meeting shall be decided by the vote of the holders of a majority of the stock having voting power present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the subject matter. Except as
otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or by applicable law, (i) no Stockholder shall have any right of cumulative voting and (ii) each outstanding share, regardless of class, shall be entitled to one vote on each matter
submitted to a vote at a meeting of Stockholders. 
 (b) Shares standing in the name of another corporation (whether domestic or foreign) may
be voted by such officer, agent or proxy as the bylaws of such corporation may prescribe or, in the absence of such provision, as the board of directors of such corporation may determine. Shares standing in the name of a deceased person may be voted
by the executor, personal representative or administrator of such deceased person, either in person or by proxy. Shares standing in the name of a guardianship, conservatorship or trust may be voted by the appropriate fiduciary, either in person or
by proxy, but no fiduciary shall be entitled to vote shares held in such fiduciary capacity without a transfer of such shares into the name of such fiduciary. Shares standing in the name of a receiver may be voted by such receiver. A Stockholder
whose shares are pledged shall be entitled to vote such shares, unless in the transfer by the pledgor on the books of the Corporation he has expressly empowered the pledgee to vote thereon, in which case only the pledgee (or his proxy) may represent
the stock and vote thereon. 
 (c) If shares or other securities having voting power stand of record in the name of two or more persons
(whether fiduciaries, members of a partnership, joint tenants, tenants in common, tenants by the entirety or otherwise) or if two or more persons have the same fiduciary relationship respecting the same shares, unless the Secretary is given written
notice to the contrary and is furnished with a copy of the instrument or order appointing them or creating the relationship wherein it is so provided, their acts with respect to voting shall have the following effect: 
 (i) if only one votes, his act binds all; 
 (ii) if more than one votes, the act of the majority so voting binds all; and 
 (iii) if more
than one votes but the vote is evenly split on any particular matter, each faction may vote the securities in question proportionately or any person voting the shares, or a beneficiary, (if any) may apply to the Delaware Court of Chancery or such
other court as may have jurisdiction to appoint an additional person to act with the person so voting the shares, which shall then be voted as determined by a majority such persons and the person so appointed by the court. 
  

 4 

 If the instrument so filed shows that any such tenancy is held in unequal interests, a majority or even-split for the
purpose of the paragraph (c) shall be a majority or even-split in interest. 
 Section 2.9. Proxies. 
 (a) At any meeting of Stockholders, each Stockholder having the right to vote thereat may be represented and vote either in person or by proxy executed in
writing by such Stockholder or by his duly authorized attorney-in-fact. Each such proxy shall be filed with the Secretary of the Corporation at or before the beginning of each meeting at which such proxy is to be voted. Unless otherwise provided
therein, no proxy shall be valid after three years from the date of its execution. Each proxy shall be revocable unless expressly provided therein to be irrevocable and coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power or
unless otherwise made irrevocable by applicable law. 
 (b) A proxy shall be deemed signed if the Stockholder’s name is placed on the
proxy (whether by manual signature, telegraphic transmission or otherwise) by the Stockholder or his attorney-in-fact. In the event any proxy shall designate two or more persons to act as proxies, a majority of such persons present at the meeting
(or, if only one shall be present, then that one) shall have and may exercise all the powers conferred by the proxy upon all the persons so designated unless the proxy shall otherwise provide. 
 (c) Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these Bylaws, the Board of Directors may, in advance of any
meeting of Stockholders, prescribe additional regulations concerning the manner of execution and filing of proxies (and the validation of same) which may be voted at such meeting. 
 Section 2.10. Record Date. For the purpose of determining the Stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of Stockholders
(or any adjournment thereof) or to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action,
the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date on which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors or be more than 60 nor less than 10 days prior to the date of such meeting
nor more than 60 days prior to any other action. If no record date is fixed, (i) the record date for determining Stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of Stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next
preceding the day on which notice is given or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held and (ii) the record date for determining Stockholders for any other purpose shall be at
the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto. A determination of Stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of Stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the
meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting. 
  

 5 

 Section 2.11. Conduct of Meetings; Agenda. 
 (a) Meetings of the Stockholders shall be presided over by the officer of the Corporation whose duties under these Bylaws require him to do so;
provided, however, if no such officer of the Corporation shall be present at any meeting of Stockholders, such meeting shall be presided over by a chairman to be chosen by a majority of the voting power of the shares entitled to vote at the
meeting who are present in person or by proxy. At each meeting of Stockholders, the officer of the Corporation whose duties under these Bylaws require him to do so shall act as secretary of the meeting; provided, however, if no such officer
of the Corporation shall be present at any meeting of Stockholders, the chairman of such meeting shall appoint a secretary. The order of business at each meeting of Stockholders shall be as determined by the chairman of the meeting, including such
regulation of the manner of voting and the conduct of discussion as seems to him in order. 
 (b) The Board of Directors may, in advance of
any meeting of Stockholders, adopt an agenda for such meeting, adherence to which the chairman of the meeting may enforce. 
 Section 2.12. Inspectors of Election; Opening and Closing of Polls. 
 (a) Before any meeting of Stockholders, the Board
of Directors may, and if required by law shall, appoint one or more persons to act as inspectors of election at such meeting or any adjournment thereof. If any person appointed as inspector fails to appear or fails or refuses to act, the chairman of
the meeting may, and if required by law or requested by any Stockholder entitled to vote or his proxy shall, appoint a substitute inspector. If no inspectors are appointed by the Board of Directors, the chairman of the meeting may, and if required
by law or requested by any Stockholder entitled to vote or his proxy shall, appoint one or more inspectors at the meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, inspectors shall be appointed consistent with the mandatory provisions of Section 231 of
the DGCL. 
 (b) Inspectors may include individuals who serve the Corporation in other capacities (including as officers, employees, agents
or representatives); provided, however, that no director or candidate for the office of director shall act as an inspector. Inspectors need not be Stockholders. 
 (c) The inspectors shall (i) determine the number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation outstanding and the voting power of each, the number of shares represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum
and the validity and effect of proxies and (ii) receive votes or ballots, hear and determine all challenges and questions arising in connection with the right to vote, count and tabulate all votes and ballots, determine the results and do such
acts as are proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all Stockholders. On request of the chairman of the meeting, the inspectors shall make a report in writing of any challenge, request or matter determined by them and shall execute a
certificate of any fact found by them. The inspectors shall have such other duties as may be prescribed by Section 231 of the DGCL. 
 (d) The chairman of the meeting may, and if required by the DGCL shall, fix and announce at the meeting the date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the Stockholders will vote at the meeting.

 Section 2.13. Procedures for Bringing Business before Annual Meetings. 
 (a) Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at an annual meeting of Stockholders except in accordance
with the procedures hereinafter set forth in this Section 2.13; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 2.13 shall be deemed to preclude discussion by any Stockholder of any business properly brought before any annual
meeting of Stockholders in accordance with such procedures. 
 (b) At any annual meeting of Stockholders, only such business shall be
conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, business (other than business relating to any nomination of directors, which is governed by Section 3.6) must be
(i) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors (or any duly authorized committee thereof), (ii) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction
of the chairman of the meeting or Board of Directors (or any duly authorized committee thereof) or (iii) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a Stockholder of record entitled to vote in the election of directors generally, in
compliance with the provisions of this Section 2.13 and a proper subject to be brought before such meeting. In addition to any other applicable requirements, for business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a Stockholder (other
than business relating to any nomination of directors, which is governed by Section 3.6), the Stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary. To be timely, a Stockholder’s notice must be delivered to or
mailed and received at the principal executive office of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the 120th day and not sooner than the close of business on the 180th day prior to the first anniversary of the date of the preceding
year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that if no annual meeting was held in the previous year or the date of the annual meeting of Stockholders has been changed by more than 30 calendar days from the date contemplated at the time of
the previous year’s proxy statement, the notice must be received by the Corporation not later than the later of the close of business on the 120th day prior to the first anniversary of the date of the preceding year’s annual meeting or the
10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Corporation. The first anniversary of the 2008 annual meeting of Stockholders shall be deemed to be [May 10], 2009. Any meeting of
Stockholders which is adjourned and will reconvene within 30 days after the meeting date as originally noticed shall, for purposes of any Stockholder’s notice contemplated by this paragraph (b), be deemed to be a continuation of the original
meeting, and no business may be brought before such adjourned meeting by any Stockholder unless timely notice of such business was given to the Secretary of the Corporation for the meeting as originally noticed. In no event shall the public
disclosure of an adjournment of an annual meeting of Stockholders constitute a new time period for the giving of a Stockholder’s notice as described above. 
 (c) Each notice given by a Stockholder as contemplated by paragraph (b) above other than a proposed nomination of any person for election or reelection as a director (which is addressed in Section 3.6) shall
set forth, as to each matter the Stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting: (i) the nature of the proposed business with reasonable particularity, including the exact text of any proposal to be presented for adoption and any
supporting statement, which proposal and supporting statement shall not in the aggregate exceed 500 words, and his reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting; (ii) any material interest of 

  

 7 

 
the Stockholder in such business; (iii) the name, principal occupation and record address of the Stockholder; (iv) the class and number of shares
of the Corporation which are held of record or beneficially owned by the Stockholder; (v) the dates upon which the Stockholder acquired such shares of stock and documentary support for any claims of beneficial ownership; and (vi) such
other matters as may be required by the Certificate of Incorporation. 
 (d) The foregoing right of a Stockholder to propose business for
consideration at an annual meeting of Stockholders shall be subject to such conditions, restrictions and limitations as may be imposed by the Certificate of Incorporation. Nothing in this Section 2.13 shall entitle any Stockholder to propose
business for consideration at any special meeting of Stockholders. 
 (e) The chairman of any meeting of Stockholders shall determine whether
business has been properly brought before the meeting and, if the facts so warrant, may refuse to transact any business at such meeting which has not been properly brought before the meeting. 
 (f) Notwithstanding any other provision of these Bylaws, the Corporation shall be under no obligation to include any Stockholder proposal in its proxy
statement or otherwise present any such proposal to Stockholders at a meeting of Stockholders if the Board of Directors reasonably believes that the proponents thereof have not complied with Sections 13 and 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the Corporation shall not be required to include in its proxy statement to Stockholders any Stockholder proposal not required to be
included in its proxy statement to Stockholders in accordance with the Exchange Act and such rules or regulations. 
 (g) Nothing in this
Section 2.13 shall be deemed to affect any rights of Stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act. 
 (h) Reference is made to Section 3.6 for procedures relating to the nomination of any person for election or reelection as a director of the
Corporation. 
 ARTICLE III 
 Board of Directors — Powers, Number, Nominations, 
 Resignations, Removal, Vacancies and Compensation 

Section 3.1. Management. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by and under the direction of the Board of
Directors. 
 Section 3.2. Number. The number of directors shall be fixed from time to time exclusively by resolution adopted by
a majority of the directors then in office, but shall consist of not less than three (3) nor more than ten (10) directors, subject, however, to increases above ten (10) members as may be required in order to permit the holders of any
series of preferred stock issued by the Corporation to elect directors under specified circumstances. Subject to the preceding sentence, the maximum number of directors may not be increased by the Board of Directors to exceed ten (10) without
the affirmative vote of 66-2/3% of the members of the entire Board of Directors. 
  

 8 

 Section 3.3. Qualification. A director need not be a Stockholder or a resident of the State
of Delaware. Each director must have attained twenty-one (21) years of age. 
 Section 3.4. Classes of Directors. Subject to
the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock to elect additional directors under specified circumstances, the Board of Directors shall be divided into three classes designated as Class I, Class II and Class III. The number of directors
in each class shall be the whole number contained in the quotient arrived at by dividing the authorized number of directors by three, and if a fraction is also contained in such quotient then if such fraction is one-third (1/3), the extra director
shall be a member of Class I, and if the fraction is two-thirds (2/3), one of the extra directors shall be a member of Class I and the other member of Class II. In the event of any increase or decrease in the authorized number of directors,
(i) each director then serving as such shall nevertheless continue as a director of the class of which he is a member and (ii) the newly created or eliminated directorships resulting from such increase or decrease shall be apportioned by
the Board of Directors among the three classes of directors so as to ensure that no one class has more than one director more than any other class. To the extent possible, consistent with the foregoing rule, any newly created directorships shall be
added to those classes whose terms of office are to expire at the latest dates following such allocation, and any newly eliminated directorships shall be subtracted from those classes whose terms of office are to expire at the earliest dates
following such allocation, unless otherwise provided from time to time by resolution adopted by the Board of Directors. 
 Section 3.5.
Election; Term of Office(a) Subject to the Certificate of Incorporation and Sections 3.9 and 3.10 of these Bylaws, each director elected at an annual meeting of Stockholders to succeed a director whose term is expiring shall hold office until
the third annual meeting of Stockholders after his election or until his successor is elected and qualified or until his earlier death, resignation or removal; provided, however, the term of office of directors initially appointed to Class I
shall expire at the annual meeting of Stockholders in 2009, the term of office of directors initially appointed to Class II shall expire at the annual meeting of Stockholders in 2010 and the term of office of directors initially appointed to Class
III shall expire at the annual meeting of Stockholders in 2011. Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, whenever the holders of any one or more classes or series of preferred stock issued by the Corporation shall have the right,
voting, separately by class or series, to elect directors at an annual meeting or the election, term or office, filling of vacancies and other features of such directorships shall be governed by the Certificate of Incorporation applicable thereto.

 (b) Directors shall be elected by Stockholders only at annual meetings of Stockholders, except that if any such annual meeting is not held
or if any director to be elected thereat is not elected, such director may be elected at any special meeting of Stockholders held for that purpose. 
 (c) No decrease in the number of directors constituting the number of directors then in office shall have the effect of shortening the term of any incumbent director. 
  

 9 

 Section 3.6. Nominations 
 (a) Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, only persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures hereinafter set forth in
this Section 3.6 shall be eligible for election as directors of the Corporation. 
 (b) Nominations of persons for election to the Board

requirements (if any) set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 3.6 and in the Certificate of Incorporation; provided, however, Stockholders may not nominate

 At the request of the Board of Directors, any person nominated by the Board of Directors for election as a
director shall furnish to the Secretary of the Corporation that information required to be set forth in a Stockholder’s notice of nomination which pertains to the nominee. 
 (d) The foregoing right of a Stockholder to nominate a person for election or reelection to the Board of Directors shall be subject to such conditions,
restrictions and limitations as may be imposed by the Certificate of Incorporation. 
 (e) Nothing in this Section 3.6 shall be deemed

 (f) The chairman of a meeting of Stockholders shall have the power and duty to determine whether a nomination was made in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 3.6 and, if any nomination is not

Resignations. Any director may resign at any time by giving written notice to the Board of Directors or the Secretary. Such resignation shall take effect at the date of receipt of such notice or at any later time specified therein. Acceptance
of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. When one or more directors shall resign from the Board of Directors, effective at a future date, a majority of the directors then in office, excluding those who have so resigned, shall
have the power to fill such vacancy or vacancies, the vote thereon to take effect when such resignation or resignations shall become effective, and each Director so chosen shall hold office for the unexpired portion of the term of the Director whose
place shall be vacated and until his successor shall have been duly elected and qualified. 
  

 11 

 Section 3.8. Removal. No director may be removed before the expiration of his term of office
except for cause and then only by the affirmative vote of the holders of not less than a majority of the voting power of all outstanding Voting Stock, voting together as a single class. The Board of Directors may not remove any director, and no
recommendation by the Board of Directors that a director be removed may be made to the Stockholders unless such recommendation is set forth in a resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than 66-2/3% of the number of directors then in
office. Notwithstanding the foregoing, whenever the holders of any class or series of preferred stock are entitled to elect one or more directors by the Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of such class or series may remove such director(s)
with or without cause before the expiration of his term of office by the affirmative vote of holders of not less than a majority of all outstanding shares of such class or series of preferred stock. 
 Section 3.9. Vacancies. 
 (a) In
case any vacancy shall occur on the Board of Directors because of death, resignation or removal, such vacancy may be filled by a majority of the directors remaining in office (though less than a quorum) or by the sole remaining director. The
director so appointed shall serve for the unexpired term of his predecessor or until his successor is elected and qualified or until his earlier death, resignation or removal. If there are no directors then in office, an election of directors may be
held in the manner provided by applicable law. 
 (b) Any newly created directorship resulting from any increase in the number of directors
constituting the total number of directors which the Corporation would have if there were no vacancies may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office (though less than a quorum), or by the sole remaining director. Each director so
appointed shall hold office until his successor is elected and qualified or until his earlier death, resignation or removal. 
 (c) Except as
expressly provided in these Bylaws or the Certificate of Incorporation or as otherwise provided by law, Stockholders shall not have any right to fill vacancies on the Board of Directors, including newly created directorships. 
 (d) If, as a result of a disaster or emergency (as determined in good faith by the then remaining directors), it becomes impossible to ascertain whether
or not vacancies exist on the Board of Directors and a person is or persons are elected by the directors, who in good faith believe themselves to be a majority of the remaining directors, or the sole remaining director, to fill a vacancy or
vacancies that such remaining directors in good faith believe exists, then the acts of such person or persons who are so elected as directors shall be valid and binding upon the Corporation, although it may subsequently develop that at the time of
the election (i) there was in fact no vacancy or vacancies existing on the Board of Directors or (ii) the directors, or the sole remaining director, who so elected such person or persons did not in fact constitute a majority of the
remaining directors. 
 Section 3.10. Subject to Rights of Holders of Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions
of this Article III, if the resolutions of the Board of Directors creating any series of preferred stock of the Corporation entitle the holders of such preferred stock, voting separately by series, to elect additional directors under specified
circumstances, then all provisions of such resolutions relating to the nomination, election, term of office, removal, filling of vacancies and other features of such directorships shall, as to such directorships, govern and control over any
conflicting provisions of this Article III. 
  

 12 

 Section 3.11. Compensation. The Board of Directors shall have the authority to fix, and from
time to time to change, the compensation of directors. Each director shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Corporation for his reasonable expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Board of Directors (or any committee thereof) and meetings

Legends. The Board of Directors shall have the power and authority to provide that certificates representing shares of stock of the Corporation bear such legends and statements (including, without limitation, statements relating to the
powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the shares represented by such certificates) as the Board of Directors deems appropriate in connection
with the requirements of federal or state securities laws or other applicable laws. 
 Section 7.4. Lost, Stolen or Destroyed
Certificates. The Board of Directors, the Secretary and the Treasurer each may direct a new certificate or certificates to be issued in place of any certificate or certificates theretofore issued by the Corporation alleged to have been lost,
stolen or destroyed, in each case upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the owner of such certificate, or his legal representative. When authorizing such issue of a new certificate or certificates, the Board of Directors, the Secretary or
the Treasurer, as the case may be, may, in its or his discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate or certificates, or his legal representative, to advertise the
same in such manner as the Board of Directors, the Secretary or the Treasurer, as the case may be, shall require and/or to furnish the Corporation a bond in such form and substance and with such surety as the Board of Directors, the Secretary or the
Treasurer, as the case may be, may direct as indemnity against any claim, or expense resulting from any claim, that may be made against the Corporation with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed. 
 Section 7.5. Registration and Transfer of Shares. The Board of Directors may appoint one or more transfer agents for the Corporation’s

 21 

 
authorize such agent or agents to make, all such rules and regulations as are expedient governing the issue, transfer and registration of shares of capital
stock of the Corporation and any certificates representing such shares. The capital stock of the Corporation shall be transferable only on the books of the Corporation either (a) if such shares are certificated, by the surrender to the
Corporation or its transfer agent of the old stock certificate therefore duly endorsed or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignment or authority to transfer, or (b) if such shares are uncertificated, upon proper instructions from
the holder thereof, in each case with such proof of authenticity of signature as the Corporation or its transfer agent may reasonably require. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of a security (whether certificated or
uncertificated), the Corporation shall treat the registered owner of such security as the person exclusively entitled to vote, receive notifications and dividends, and otherwise to exercise all rights and powers of such security. 
 Section 7.6. Registered Stockholders. The Corporation shall be entitled to treat the holder of record of any share of stock of the
Corporation as the holder in fact thereof and, accordingly, shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim or interest in such share on the part of any other person, whether or not the Corporation shall have express or other notice
thereof, except as expressly provided by the laws of the State of Delaware. 
 Section 7.7. Regulations. The Board of Directors
shall have the power and authority to make all such rules and regulations as they may deem expedient concerning the issue, transfer and registration or the replacement of certificates for shares of stock of the Corporation. The Board of Directors
may (i) appoint and remove transfer agents and registrars of transfers and (ii) require all stock certificates to bear the signature of any such transfer agent and/or any such registrar of transfers. 
 Section 7.8. Stock Options, Warrants, etc. Unless otherwise expressly prohibited in the resolutions of the Board of Directors creating any
class or series of preferred stock of the Corporation, the Board of Directors shall have the power and authority to create and issue (whether or not in connection with the issue and sale of any stock or other securities of the Corporation) warrants,
rights or options entitling the holders thereof to purchase from the Corporation any shares of capital stock of the Corporation of any class or series or any other securities of the Corporation for such consideration and to such persons, firms or
corporations as the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may determine, setting aside from the authorized but unissued stock of the Corporation the requisite number of shares for issuance upon the exercise of such warrants, rights or options.
Such warrants, rights and options shall be evidenced by one or more instruments approved by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors shall be empowered to set the exercise price, duration, time for exercise and other terms of such warrants,
rights and options; provided, however, that the consideration to be received for any shares of capital stock subject thereto shall not be less than the par value thereof. 
 Section 7.9. Authority upon Liquidation or Dissolution. Subject to applicable law and the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, any
vote or votes authorizing liquidation of the Corporation or proceeding for its dissolution may provide, subject to (i) any agreements among and between Stockholders, (ii) the rights of creditors and (iii) rights expressly provided for
particular classes or series of stock, for the distribution pro rata among the Stockholders of assets of the Corporation, wholly or in part in kind, whether such assets be in 

  

 22 

 
cash or other property, and may authorize the Board of Directors of the Corporation to determine the value of the different assets of the Corporation for the
purpose of such liquidation and may divide, or authorize the Board of Directors of the Corporation to divide, such assets or any part thereof among the Stockholders in such manner that every Stockholder will receive a proportionate amount in value
(determined as aforesaid) of cash or property of the Corporation upon such liquidation or dissolution even though each Stockholder may not receive a strictly proportionate part of each such asset. 
 ARTICLE VIII 
 Indemnification

 Section 8.1. Third Party Actions. The Corporation (i) shall, to the maximum extent permitted from time to time under
the laws of the State of Delaware, indemnify every person who is or was a party or is or was threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
(other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries or is or was serving at the request of the
Corporation or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries as a director, officer or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, and (ii) may, to the maximum extent permitted
from time to time under the laws of the State of Delaware, indemnify every person who is or was a party or is or was threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was an employee or agent of the Corporation or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries or is or was serving
at the request of the Corporation or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries as an employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against expenses (including counsel fees),
judgments, fines and amounts paid or owed in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by such person or rendered or levied against such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner
such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit
or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, in itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which such person reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, that the person had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. 
 Section 8.2. Actions By or in the Right of the Corporation. The Corporation (i) shall, to the maximum extent permitted from time to time
under the laws of the State of Delaware, indemnify every person who is or was a party or who is or was threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment
in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries
as a director, officer or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit 

  

 23 

 
plan or other enterprise, and (ii) may, to the maximum extent permitted from time to time under the laws of the State of Delaware, indemnify every
person who is or was a party or who is or was threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or
was an employee or agent of the Corporation or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries as an employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against expenses (including counsel fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such
person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation; provided, however, that no indemnification shall be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter
as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnification. 
 Section 8.3. Determination. Any indemnification under Sections 8.1 and 8.2 (unless ordered by a
court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because the person has met the
applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.2, as applicable. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination, (i) by a majority vote of the directors
who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (ii) by a committee if designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (iii) if there are no such directors, or if
such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (iv) by the Stockholders. 
 Section 8.4.
Expenses. Expenses incurred by a director or officer of the Corporation or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final
disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as
authorized in this Article VIII. Such expenses incurred by other employees and agents of the Corporation and other persons eligible for indemnification under this Article VIII may be paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the Board of
Directors deems appropriate. 
 Section 8.5. Non-exclusivity. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or
granted pursuant to, this Article VIII shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any provision of law, the Certificate of Incorporation, the certificate
of incorporation or bylaws or other governing documents of any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Corporation, under any agreement, vote of Stockholders or disinterested directors or under any policy or policies of insurance maintained by the
Corporation on behalf of any person or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding any of the positions or having any of the relationships referred to in this Article VIII. 
  

 24 

 Section 8.6. Enforceability. The provisions of this Article VIII (i) are for the benefit
of, and may be enforced directly by, each director or officer of the Corporation the same as if set forth in their entirety in a written instrument executed and delivered by the Corporation and such director or officer and (ii) constitute a
continuing offer to all present and future directors and officers of the Corporation. The Corporation, by its adoption of these Bylaws, (A) acknowledges and agrees that each present and future director and officer of the Corporation has relied
upon and will continue to rely upon the provisions of this Article VIII in becoming, and serving as, a director or officer of the Corporation or, if requested by the Corporation, a director, officer or fiduciary or the like of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, (B) waives reliance upon, and all notices of acceptance of, such provisions by such directors and officers and (C) acknowledges and agrees that no present or
future director or officer of the Corporation shall be prejudiced in his right to enforce directly the provisions of this Article VIII in accordance with their terms by any act or failure to act on the part of the Corporation. 
 Section 8.7. Insurance. The Board of Directors may authorize the Corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who
is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise
against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this
Article VIII. 
 Section 8.8. Survival. The provisions of this Article VIII shall continue as to any person who has ceased to be
a director or officer of the Corporation and shall inure to the benefit of the estate, executors, administrators, heirs, legatees and devisees of any person entitled to indemnification under this Article VIII. 
 Section 8.9. Amendment. No amendment, modification or repeal of this Article VIII or any provision hereof shall in any manner terminate,
reduce or impair the right of any past, present or future director or officer of the Corporation to be indemnified by the Corporation, nor the obligation of the Corporation to indemnify any such director or officer, under and in accordance with the
provisions of this Article VIII as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising, in whole or in part, from a state of facts extant on the date of, or relating to matters occurring prior to,
such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted. 
 Section 8.10. Definitions.
For purposes of this Article VIII, (i) other than Section 8.8, reference to any person shall include the estate, executors, personal representatives, administrators, heirs, legatees and devisees of such person, (ii) “employee
benefit plan” and “fiduciary” shall be deemed to include, but not be limited to, the meaning set forth, respectively, in sections 3(3) and 21(A) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, (iii) references
to the judgments, fines and amounts paid or owed in settlement or rendered or levied shall be deemed to encompass and include excise taxes required to be paid pursuant to applicable law in respect of any transaction involving an employee benefit
plan and (iv) references to the Corporation shall be deemed to include any predecessor corporation or entity and any constituent corporation or entity absorbed in a merger, consolidation or other 

  

 25 

 
reorganization of or by the Corporation which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors,
officers, employees, agents and fiduciaries so that any person who was a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of such predecessor or constituent corporation or entity, or served at the request of such predecessor or constituent
corporation or entity as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article
VIII with respect to the Corporation as such person would have with respect to such predecessor or constituent corporation or entity if its separate existence had continued. 
 ARTICLE IX 
 Notices and Waivers 
 Section 9.1. Methods of Giving Notices. Whenever, by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, notice is required to
be given to any Stockholder, any director or any member of a committee of the Board of Directors and no provision is made as to how such notice shall be given, personal notice shall not be required and such notice may be given (i) in writing,
by mail, postage prepaid, addressed to such Stockholder, director or committee member at his address as it appears on the books or (in the case of a Stockholder) the stock transfer records of the Corporation or (ii) by any other method
permitted by law (including, but not limited to, overnight courier service or “electronic transmission” as defined under and in accordance with Section 232 of the DGCL). Any notice required or permitted to be given by mail shall be
deemed to be delivered and given at the time when the same is deposited in the United States mail as aforesaid. Any notice required or permitted to be given by overnight courier service shall be deemed to be delivered and given one business day
after delivery to such service with all charges prepaid and addressed as aforesaid. Any notice required or permitted to be given by electronic transmission shall be deemed to be delivered and given: (i) if by facsimile telecommunication, when
directed to a number at which the Stockholder, director or committee member has consented to receive notice; (ii) if by electronic mail, when directed to an electronic mail address at which the Stockholder, director or committee member has

Incorporation or these Bylaws, a waiver thereof in writing signed by the person or persons entitled to said notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be equivalent to the giving of such notice. Attendance of a Stockholder
(whether in person or by proxy), director or committee member at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where such person attends for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the ground
that the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.
