entitled to be named as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement or to use the Prospectus forming a part thereof for resales of Registrable Securities unless such Holder is an Electing Holder. 
 (b) The Company shall use reasonable efforts: 
 (i) to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective in order to permit the Prospectus forming a part thereof to be usable by Holders for resales of Registrable Securities during the period from the date (the “Effective
Date”) such Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective until the earliest of: (A) the sale of all Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement; (B) the expiration of the period referred to in

signed Notice and Questionnaire to the Company in accordance with Section 3(a)(ii) hereof; and 
 (iii) if at any time the Securities,
pursuant to Article XII of the Indenture, are convertible into securities other than Common Stock, to cause, or to cause any successor under the Indenture to cause, such securities to be included in the Shelf Registration Statement no later
than the date on which the Securities may then be convertible into such securities. 
 (c) The Company may suspend the use of the Prospectus
for a period not to exceed 45 days in any 90-day period or an aggregate of 90 days in any 365-day period if the Board of Directors of the Company shall have determined in good faith that because of valid business reasons (not including avoidance of
the Company’s obligations hereunder), including the acquisition or divestiture of assets, pending corporate developments and similar events, it is in the best interests of the Company to suspend such use, and prior to suspending such use the
Company provides the Holders with written notice of such suspension, which notice need not specify the nature of the event giving rise to such suspension. 
 3. Registration Procedures. In connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, the following provisions shall apply: 
 (a) (i) Not less than 30 calendar days prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall mail or deliver the Notice and Questionnaire to the Holders. No Holder shall be entitled to be named as a selling securityholder in
the Shelf Registration Statement as of the Effective Time, and no Holder shall be entitled to use the Prospectus for resales of Registrable Securities at any time, unless such Holder has returned a completed and signed Notice and Questionnaire to
the Company by the deadline for response set forth therein; provided, however, Holders shall have at least 28 calendar days from the date on which the Notice and Questionnaire is first mailed or delivered to such Holders to return a
completed and signed Notice and Questionnaire to the Company. 
 (ii) After the Effective Time, the Company shall, upon the request of any
Holder who is not then an Electing Holder, promptly send a Notice and Questionnaire to such Holder. The Company shall not be required to take any action to name such Holder as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement or to enable
such Holder to use the Prospectus for resales of those Registrable Securities until such Holder has returned a completed and signed Notice and Questionnaire to the Company. Upon receipt of a completed and signed Notice and Questionnaire, the Company
shall as promptly as practicable thereafter, and in any event upon the later of (A) ten (10) business days after the date of the Company’s receipt of such Notice and Questionnaire or (B) if the use of the Prospectus has been
suspended by the Company under Section 2(c) hereof at the time of receipt of the Notice and Questionnaire, ten (10) business days after the expiration of the period during which the use of the Prospectus is suspended, (1) if required
by applicable law, file with the Commission a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or prepare and, if required by applicable law, file a supplement to the Prospectus or file any other required document so that the Holder
delivering such Notice and Questionnaire is named 

  

 5 

 
as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus in such a manner as to permit such Holder to deliver such
Prospectus to purchasers of the Registrable Securities in accordance with applicable law and, (2) if the Company shall file a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement, use reasonable efforts to cause such post-effective
amendment to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is practicable, but in any event by the date that is sixty (60) days after the date such post-effective amendment is required by this clause to be filed. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to file more than one post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement during any ninety (90) day period or during any period in which a post-effective amendment has been filed with
the Commission but not yet declared effective. 
 (iii) The term “Electing Holder” shall mean any Holder that has returned
a completed and signed Notice and Questionnaire to the Company in accordance with Section 3(a)(i) or 3(a)(ii) hereof and promptly provides to the Company all information required to be provided pursuant to Section 3(r) of this Agreement.

 (b) The Company shall (i) furnish to each then Electing Holder, prior to the Effective Time, a copy of the Shelf Registration
Statement initially filed with the Commission, and shall furnish to such Holders, prior to the filing thereof with the Commission, copies of each amendment thereto and each amendment or supplement, if any, to the Prospectus included therein, and
shall use reasonable efforts to reflect in each such document, at the Effective Time or when so filed with the Commission, as the case may be, such comments as such Holders and their respective counsel reasonably may propose, provided, however, that
the Company shall make the final decision as to the form and content of each such document, and (ii) name the then Electing Holders as selling securityholders in the Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (c) The Company shall promptly take such action as may be necessary so that (i) the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and the
Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto (and each report or other document incorporated therein by reference in each case) complies in all material respects with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the Rules and Regulations,
(ii) the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading and (iii) the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, does not at any time during the Registration Period include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in
order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 
 (d) The Company shall
promptly notify each Electing Holder in writing: 
 (i) when a Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto has been filed with the
Commission and when a Shelf Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; 
 (ii) of any written
request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to the Shelf Registration Statement or the Prospectus or for additional information; 
  

 6 

 (iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf
Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose; 
 (iv) if the Company receives any notification with respect
to the suspension of the qualification of the securities included in the Shelf Registration Statement for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose; and 
 (v) of the happening of any event or the existence of any state of facts that requires the making of any changes in the Shelf Registration Statement or
the Prospectus so that, as of such date, the Shelf Registration Statement and the Prospectus do not contain an untrue statement of a material fact and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading. 
 A notice
pursuant to clauses (ii) through (v) above may be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the requisite changes to the Prospectus have been made or such other action is taken to remedy the fact or event
that led to the suspension of the use of the Prospectus. 
 (e) The Company shall use reasonable efforts: (i) to prevent the issuance of
any order suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement; (ii) if issued, to obtain the withdrawal of any such order at the earliest practicable time; and (iii) to provide prompt notice to each Electing Holder of the
withdrawal of such order. 
 (f) The Company shall furnish to each Electing Holder, without charge, at least one copy of the Shelf
Registration Statement and all post-effective amendments thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and, if such Electing Holder so requests in writing, all reports, other documents and exhibits that are filed with or incorporated by
reference in the Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (g) The Company shall, during the Registration Period, deliver to each Electing Holder,
without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) and any amendment or supplement thereto as such Electing Holder may reasonably request. The Company consents (except during the periods specified in
Section 2(c) above or during the continuance of any event described in clauses (ii) through (v) of Section 3(d) above) to the use of the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the Electing Holders in
connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto during the Registration Period. 
 (h) The Company shall: (i) prior to any offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, register or qualify or cooperate with the Electing Holders and their respective counsel in
connection with the registration or qualification of such Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any Electing Holder may reasonably request;
(ii) keep such registrations or qualifications in effect and comply with such laws so as to permit the continuance of offers and sales in such jurisdictions for so long as may be necessary to enable any Electing Holder or 

  

 7 

 
underwriter, if any, to complete its distribution of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement; and (iii) take any and all
other actions necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of such Registrable Securities; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be obligated to (A) qualify as a foreign corporation or as
a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to so qualify but for this Section 3(h) or (B) file any general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.

 (i) Except with respect to Registrable Securities in book-entry only form, the Company shall cooperate with the Electing Holders to
facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, which shall be free of any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in
such names as the Electing Holders may request a reasonable period of time prior to sales of such Registrable Securities pursuant to and in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (j) Upon the occurrence of any fact or event contemplated by clauses (ii) through (v) of Section 3(d) above during the Registration
Period, the Company shall promptly prepare a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or an amendment or supplement to the related Prospectus or file any other required document or take such other action so that, (A) with
respect to clauses (ii) through (iv) of Section 3(d), the fact or event which has led to the suspension of the use of the Prospectus is remedied, and (B) with respect to clause (v) of Section 3(d), as thereafter
delivered to purchasers of the Registrable Securities included therein, the Prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If the Company provides notice to the Electing Holders of the occurrence of any fact or event contemplated by clauses (ii) through (v) of Section 3(d) above along with an
instruction to suspend the use of the Prospectus, the Electing Holder shall suspend the use of the Prospectus until the requisite changes to the Prospectus have been made or such other action is taken to remedy the fact or event that led to the
suspension of the use of the Prospectus. 
 (k) Not later than the Effective Time, the Company shall provide a CUSIP number for the
Registrable Securities that are debt securities. 
 (l) The Company will comply with all Rules and Regulations to the extent and so long as
they are applicable to the Shelf Registration Statement and will make generally available to its securityholders (or otherwise provide in accordance with Section 11(a) of the Securities Act) an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of
Section 11(a) of the Securities Act, no later than 45 days after the end of a 12-month period (or 90 days, if such period is a fiscal year) beginning with the first month of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after the
effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement, which statement shall cover such 12-month period. For purposes of this paragraph, the term “effective date” with respect to the Shelf Registration Statement shall have the meaning
assigned to it in paragraph (c) of Rule 158 (or any successor provision thereto) under the Securities Act. 
 (m) Not later than the
Effective Time, the Company shall cause the Indenture to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act. In connection with such qualification, the Company shall cooperate with the Trustee and the Holders (as defined in the Indenture) to effect such
changes to the Indenture as may be required for such Indenture to be so qualified in accordance with the 

  

 8 

 
terms of the Trust Indenture Act; and the Company shall execute, and shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Trustee to execute, all documents that may be
required to effect such changes and all other forms and documents required to be filed with the Commission to enable such Indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner. In the event that any such amendment or modification referred to in this
Section 3(m) involves the appointment of a new trustee under the Indenture, the Company shall appoint a new trustee thereunder pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Indenture. 
 (n) The Company shall enter into such customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form in the event of an underwritten
offering) and take all other reasonable and appropriate action in order to expedite and facilitate the registration and disposition of the Registrable Securities. 
 (o) The Company shall: (i) make available for inspection by the Electing Holders, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, and any attorney, accountant or
other agent retained by such Electing Holders or any such underwriter, at reasonable times and in a reasonable manner, all relevant financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries; and
(ii) cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by such Electing Holders or any such underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement,
in each case, as is customary for similar due diligence examinations; provided that such inspection and information gathering shall be accomplished in a manner compliant with Regulation FD (including execution of appropriate confidentiality
agreements) and, to the greatest extent possible, be coordinated by one counsel designated by and on behalf of the Electing Holders and other parties. 
 (p) The Company will use reasonable efforts to cause the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
the Securities to be listed on the Nasdaq Global Market or other stock exchange or trading system on which the Common Stock primarily trades on or prior to the 60th calendar day following the Closing Date. 
 (q) In the event that any broker-dealer
registered under the Exchange Act shall underwrite, participate as a member of an underwriting syndicate or selling group or assist in the distribution of any Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement, whether as an Electing
Holder or as an underwriter, a placement or sales agent or a broker or dealer in respect thereof, or otherwise, the Company shall assist such broker-dealer in complying with the requirements of the NASD Rules, including, without limitation, by
(i) if the NASD Rules shall so require, engaging a “qualified independent underwriter” (as defined in Rule 2720 of the NASD Rules (or any successor provision thereto)) to participate in the preparation of the registration
statement relating to such Registrable Securities, to exercise usual standards of due diligence in respect thereto and to recommend the public offering price of such Registrable Securities, (B) indemnifying any such qualified independent
underwriter to the extent of the indemnification of underwriters provided in Section 5 hereof, and (C) providing such information to such broker-dealer as may be required in order for such broker-dealer to comply with the requirements of
the NASD Rules. 
  

 9 

 (r) The Company shall use reasonable efforts to take all other steps as are reasonably necessary to
effect the registration, offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement contemplated hereby. 
 (s) The Company may require each Electing Holder to furnish to the Company such information regarding the Electing Holder and the distribution of the Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request for
inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement, and the Company may exclude from such registration the Registrable Securities of any Electing Holder that unreasonably fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such
request. Each Holder named as a selling security holder in the Prospectus agrees to promptly furnish to the Company all information required to be disclosed in order to make information previously furnished to the Company by the Holder not
materially misleading. Any sale of Registrable Securities by any Holder shall constitute a representation and warranty by such Holder that the information relating to such Holder and its plan of distribution is as set forth in the Prospectus
delivered by such Holder in connection with such distribution, that such Prospectus does not as of the time of such sale contain any untrue statement of a material fact relating to or provided by such Holder or its plan of distribution and that such
Prospectus does not as of the time of such sale omit to state any material fact relating to or provided by such Holder or its plan of distribution necessary to make the statements in such Prospectus, in light of the circumstances in which they were
made, not misleading. 
 4. Registration Expenses. The Company will bear all Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the
performance of its obligations hereunder. The Company will also bear or reimburse the Electing Holders for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the Holders (which counsel shall be selected by a majority of the Electing Holders)
in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement. Each Electing Holder shall pay all underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any, and, subject to the preceding sentence, the expenses of its own counsel, relating to the sale
or disposition of such Electing Holder’s Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement. 
 5. Indemnification
and Contribution. 
 (a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Electing
Holder and each person, if any, who controls any Electing Holder within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities
(including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the
Shelf Registration Statement or any amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), or caused by any omission or alleged omission
to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged
untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to any Electing Holder furnished to the Company in writing by such Electing Holder expressly for use in the Shelf Registration Statement, any amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus,
the Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto. In connection with any 

  

 10 

 
underwritten offering permitted hereunder, the Company will also indemnify the underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such
underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Electing Holders, if requested by such Electing Holders. 
 (b) Indemnification by the Electing Holders. Each Electing Holder agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, the directors of the Company, the officers of the Company who sign the Shelf Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of
the Exchange Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Shelf Registration Statement or any amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished
any amendments or supplements thereto), or caused by 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, but only with reference to information
relating to such Electing Holder furnished to the Company in writing by such Electing Holder expressly for use in the Shelf Registration Statement, any amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus or any amendments or supplements
thereto. In no event shall the liability of any Electing Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such Electing Holder from the sale of such Electing Holder’s Registrable Securities (after
deducting any fees, discounts and commissions applicable thereto) pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement. 
 (c) Indemnification
Procedures. In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Section 5, such person (the “indemnified
party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such
proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have
mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same
counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or
related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are
incurred. In the case of any such separate firm for the Electing Holders and such control persons of any Electing Holders, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Electing Holders holding a majority of the Registrable Securities covered by
the Shelf Registration Statement. In the case of any such separate firm for the Company and such directors, officers and control persons of the Company, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Company. The indemnifying party shall not be
liable for any settlement of any 

  

 11 

 
proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party
agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to
reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its
written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with
such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or
could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such
proceeding. 
 (d) Contribution Agreement. To the extent the indemnification provided for in paragraph (a) or paragraph
(b) of this Section 5 is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such
indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying
party or parties on the one hand and of the indemnified party or parties on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Electing Holders on the other hand 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 Company or by the Electing Holders and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission. The Electing Holders’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 5(d) are several in proportion to the respective principal amount of Registrable Securities of each such Electing Holder that were registered
pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, and not joint. 
 (e) Contribution Amounts. The Company and the Electing Holders
agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Electing Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation
that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 5(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 5(d) shall be
deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section 5, no Electing Holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which Registrable Securities sold by such Electing Holder exceeds the amount of any damages that such Electing Holder
has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be
entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 
  

 12 

 (f) Remedies Not Exclusive. The remedies provided for in this Section 5 are not exclusive and
shall not limit any rights or remedies that may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity. 
 (g) Survival of
Provisions. The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 5 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on
behalf of any Electing Holder or any person controlling any Electing Holder, or by or on behalf of the Company, its officers or directors or any person controlling the Company and (iii) any sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the
Shelf Registration Statement. 
 6. Underwritten Offering. Any Holder who desires to do so may sell Registrable Securities (in whole
or in part) in an underwritten offering; provided that (i) the Electing Holders of at least 33-1/3% in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Securities then covered by the Shelf Registration Statement shall request such an
offering and (ii) at least such aggregate principal amount of such Registrable Securities shall be included in such offering; and provided further that the Company shall not be obligated to cooperate with more than one underwritten
offering during the Registration Period. Upon receipt of such a request, the Company shall provide all Holders written notice of the request, which notice shall inform such Holders that they have the opportunity to participate in the offering. In
any such underwritten offering, the Managing Underwriters will be selected by, and the underwriting arrangements with respect thereto (including the size of the offering) will be approved by, the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities
to be included in such offering; provided, however, that such Managing Underwriters and underwriting arrangements must be reasonably satisfactory to the Company. No Holder may participate in any underwritten offering contemplated
hereby unless (a) such Holder agrees to sell such Holder’s Registrable Securities to be included in the underwritten offering in accordance with any approved underwriting arrangements, (b) such Holder completes and executes all
reasonable questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, lock-up letters and other documents required under the terms of such approved underwriting arrangements, and (c) if such Holder is not then an Electing Holder,
such Holder returns a completed and signed Notice and Questionnaire to the Company in accordance with Section 3(a)(ii) hereof within a reasonable amount of time before such underwritten offering. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon receipt of a
request from the Managing Underwriters or a representative of holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be included in an underwritten offering to prepare and file an amendment or supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement and
Prospectus in connection with an underwritten offering, the Company may delay the filing of any such amendment or supplement for up to 30 days if the Board of Directors of the Company shall have determined in good faith that the Company has a bona
fide business reason for such delay. 
 7. Additional Interest. 
 (a) The occurrence of any of the following will constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder: 
  

 13 

 (i) the Company fails to file a Shelf Registration Statement with the Commission on or prior to the
120th day following the Closing Date; 
 (ii) such Shelf Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission on or prior to
the 210th day following the Closing Date; 
 (iii) the Company fails to file a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement,
or the post-effective amendment is not declared effective, within the periods required by Section 3(a)(ii) hereof; or 
 (iv) the Shelf
Registration Statement ceases to be effective (or the Company prevents or restricts Holders from effecting sales pursuant thereto) for more than 45 days, whether or not consecutive, in any 90-day period, or for more than 90 days, whether or not
consecutive, during any 365-day period. In calculating the 45 or 90 day period, days on which the Company has been obligated to pay Additional Interest in respect of a prior Event of Default under this clause (iv) within the applicable 90-day
or 365-day period, as the case may be, shall not be included. 
 (b) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Company shall be
required to pay additional interest (“Additional Interest”) to each Holder of Registrable Securities in respect of the Registrable Securities at a rate per annum equal to one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the aggregate principal
amount of Registrable Securities held by such Holder, from and including the Default Date (as hereinafter defined) to but excluding the Default Termination Date (as hereinafter defined) (the “Default Period”); provided,
however, that if the Default Period exceeds 90 days, from and after the 91st day after the Default Date such Additional Interest shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to one-half of one percent (0.50%) of the aggregate principal amount of
Registrable Securities. The term “Default Date” shall mean: (i) with respect to clause (i) of Section 7(a) above, the 121st calendar day following the Closing Date; (ii) with respect to clause (ii) of
Section 7(a) above, the 211th calendar day following the Closing Date; (iii) with respect to clause (iii) of Section 7(a) above, the first day following the date upon which the post-effective amendment was required to be filed or
declared effective, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 3(a)(ii) above; and (iv) with respect to clause (iv) of Section 7(a) above, the 46th day of such 90-day period or the 91st day of such 365-day period, as the case may
be. The term “Default Termination Date” shall mean (x) with respect to clauses (i) through (iii) of Section 7(a) above, the date the Shelf Registration Statement or the post-effective amendment, as the case may
be, is either so filed or so filed and subsequently declared effective, as the case may be, and (y) with respect to clause (iv) of Section 7(a) above, the date the Shelf Registration Statement again becomes effective or the Holders of
Registrable Securities are again able to make sales under the Shelf Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Additional Interest shall accrue as to any Registrable Security from and after the earlier of (1) the date such
security is no longer a Registrable Security and (2) the expiration of the Registration Period. 
 (c) Any amounts to be paid as
Additional Interest shall be paid semi-annually in arrears, with the first semi-annual payment due on the first Interest Payment Date (as defined in the Indenture), as applicable, following the applicable Default Date. In determining the amount of
Additional Interest to be paid with respect to shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Securities, the rate set forth in Section 7(b) hereof shall be applied to the Conversion Price(s) (as defined in the Indenture) in effect during
the applicable Default Period. 
  

 14 

 (d) Except as provided in Section 8(a) hereof, the Additional Interest shall be the exclusive
monetary remedy available to the Holders for Events of Default. In no event shall the Company be required to pay Additional Interest in respect of more than one Event of Default at any one time or in excess of the applicable maximum amount of
one-half of one percent (0.5%) set forth above, regardless of whether one or multiple Events of Default exist. 
 8. Miscellaneous.

 (a) Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge that there would be no adequate remedy at law if the Company fails to
perform any of its obligations hereunder and that the Initial Purchaser and the Holders from time to time may be irreparably harmed by any such failure, and accordingly agree that the Initial Purchaser and such Holders, in addition to any other
remedy to which they may be entitled at law or in equity and without limiting the remedies available to the Electing Holders under Section 7 hereof, shall be entitled to compel specific performance of the obligations of the Company under this
Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in any court of the United States or any State thereof having jurisdiction. 
 (b) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, except by the
Company and the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Registrable Securities then outstanding (provided that holders of Common Stock issued upon conversion of Securities shall not be deemed holders of
Common Stock, but shall be deemed to be holders of the aggregate principal amount of Securities from which such Common Stock was converted). Each Holder of Registrable Securities outstanding at the time of any such amendment, waiver or consent or
thereafter shall be bound by any amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent effected pursuant to this Section 8(b). 
 (c)
Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be given as provided in the Indenture. 
 (d)
Parties in Interest. The parties to this Agreement intend that all Holders of Registrable Securities shall be entitled to receive the benefits of this Agreement and that any Electing Holder shall be bound by the terms and provisions of this
Agreement by reason of such election with respect to the Registrable Securities which are included in a Shelf Registration Statement. All the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon, shall inure to the benefit of and shall be
enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto and any Holder from time to time of the Registrable Securities. In the event that any transferee of any Holder shall acquire Registrable Securities, in any manner, whether by
gift, bequest, purchase, operation of law or otherwise, such transferee shall, without any further writing or action of any kind, be entitled to receive the benefits of and, if an Electing Holder, be conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound by
and to perform all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement to the aforesaid extent. 
  

 15 

 (e) Third Party Beneficiaries. The Initial Purchaser (even if the Initial Purchaser is not a
Holder of Registrable Securities) shall be a third party beneficiary to the agreements made hereunder between the Company, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, and shall have the right to enforce such agreements directly to the
extent it deems such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect its rights or the rights of Holders hereunder. Each Holder of Registrable Securities shall be a third party beneficiary to the agreements made hereunder between the Company, on the
one hand, and the Initial Purchaser, on the other hand, and shall have the right to enforce such agreements directly to the extent it deems such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect its rights hereunder. 
 (f) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company has not entered into and the Company will not after the date of this Agreement enter into any
agreement which is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders of Registrable Securities in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not and will not for the term of
this Agreement in any way conflict with the rights granted to the holders of the Company’s other issued and outstanding securities under any such agreements. 
 (g) Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

 (h) Headings. The headings of the sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be
deemed a part of this Agreement. 
 (i) Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE. 
 (j) Partial Enforceability.
The invalidity or unenforceability of any section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other section, paragraph or provision hereof. If any section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement
is for any reason determined to be invalid or unenforceable, there shall be deemed to be made such minor changes (and only such minor changes) as are necessary to make it valid and enforceable. 
 (k) Entire Agreement. This Agreement is intended by the parties as a final expression of their agreement and intended to be a complete and
exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein. There are no restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein with
respect to the registration rights granted by the Company with respect to the Registrable Securities. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter. 
 (l) Survival. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other provisions set forth in this Agreement or made
pursuant hereto shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of the Company or any Electing Holder, any director, officer or partner of the Company or any
such Holder, or any controlling person of any of the foregoing, and shall survive the transfer and registration of the Registrable Securities of any such Holder.

 Thomas Weisel Partners LLC 
 One Montgomery Street, Suite 3700 
 San Francisco, California 94104 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 Introduction. Ambassadors International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), proposes to issue and sell to you (“you,” or the “Initial Purchaser”) an

(iii) the cost of printing or producing this Agreement, the Indenture, the blue sky and legal investment memoranda, closing documents (including any compilations thereof) and any other documents in connection with the offer, purchase, sale and

the representatives and officers of the Company and any such consultants and the cost of any aircraft chartered with prior approval of the Company in connection with the road show; and (xii) all other costs and expenses incident to the
performance by the Company of the obligations of the Company hereunder for which provision is not otherwise made in this Section. It is understood, however, that except as provided in this Section, Section 8 entitled “Indemnity and
Contribution,” and the last paragraph of Section 12 below, the Initial Purchaser will pay all of its costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of its counsel and any advertising expenses connected with any offers they may make.

 8. Indemnity and Contribution. 
 8.1 Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Initial Purchaser and each person, if any, who controls the Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such
action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Disclosure Package, either Offering Circular (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or
supplements thereto) or any Supplemental Offering Materials, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to the Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company in writing by the Initial Purchaser expressly for use therein.

  

 SB-24 

 8.2 Indemnification by the Initial Purchaser. The Initial Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Company, the directors of the Company, the officers of the Company and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act from and
against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Disclosure Package, either Offering Circular (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any Supplemental Offering Materials,
or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only with reference to information relating to the Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company in writing by
the Initial Purchaser expressly for use therein. 
 8.3 Indemnification Procedures. In case any proceeding (including any governmental
investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Section 8, such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity
may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any
others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the
fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any
such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between
them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more
than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. In the case of any such separate firm for the Initial Purchaser and such control
persons of the Initial Purchaser, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Initial Purchaser. In the case of any such separate firm for the Company and such directors, officers and control persons of the Company, such firm shall be designated
in writing by the Company. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying
party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party
to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its
written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance
with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or 

  

 SB-25 

 
threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such
indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding. 
 8.4 Contribution Agreement. To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 8.1 or Section 8.2 hereof is unavailable to an
indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such section, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Initial
Purchaser on the other hand from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by Section 8.4(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits
referred to in Section 8.4(i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Initial Purchaser on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Initial Purchaser on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed to be in
the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchaser, in each case as set forth in the
Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Circular, bear to the aggregate offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Initial Purchaser on the other hand 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 Company or by the Initial Purchaser and the parties’ relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 
 8.5 Contribution
Amounts. The Company and the Initial Purchaser agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to Section 8.4 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take
account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 8.4. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 8.4 shall be deemed to include,
subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, the
Initial Purchaser shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchaser exceeds the amount of any damages that the Initial Purchaser has otherwise been
required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution
from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 
  

 SB-26 

 8.6 Remedies Not Exclusive. The remedies provided for in this Section 8 are not exclusive and
shall not limit any rights or remedies that may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity. 
 8.7 Survival of
Provisions. The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 8 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the Company contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect
regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Initial Purchaser or any person controlling the Initial Purchaser or by or on behalf of the Company, its officers or directors or any
person controlling the Company and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Securities. 
 9. Effectiveness. This Agreement
shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto. 
 10. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to
Survive. All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or in certificates of officers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries submitted pursuant hereto shall remain operative and in full force and effect,
regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Initial Purchaser or its Affiliates or selling agents, any person controlling the Initial Purchaser, its officers or directors, any person controlling the Company and
(ii) delivery of and payment for the Securities. 
 11. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination by notice
given by you to the Company, if (a) after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) there has been, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the date as of which information is given in
the Preliminary Offering Circular, the Disclosure Package or the Final Offering Circular (exclusive of any amendments or supplements thereto subsequent to the date of this Agreement), any material adverse change, or prospective material adverse
change, or any development that could result in a material adverse change, in or affecting the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business, operations or prospects, of the Company and its subsidiaries, in each case whether or not
arising in the ordinary course of business, (ii) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on or by, as the case may be, any of the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Global Market, the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., the Chicago Board of Options Exchange, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange or the Chicago Board of Trade, (iii) trading of any securities of the Company shall have been suspended on any exchange or
in any over-the-counter market, (iv) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York or California shall have been declared by either federal or New York or California state authorities, (v) there shall have occurred any
outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that, in your judgment, is material and adverse, or (vi) in the judgment of the Initial Purchaser, there shall have occurred any material adverse
change, or prospective material adverse change, or any development that could result in a material adverse change, in or affecting the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business, operations or prospects, of the Company and its
subsidiaries, in each case whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, and (b) in the case of any of the events specified in Sections 11(a)(i)-11(a)(vi), such event, individually or together with any other
such event, makes it, in your judgment, impracticable to market the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Circular. 
  

 SB-27 

 12. Reimbursement. If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Initial Purchaser because of any
failure or refusal on the part of the Company to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Company shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Company will
reimburse the Initial Purchaser for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and disbursements of its counsel) reasonably incurred by the Initial Purchaser in connection with this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder. 

13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if
the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

 SCHEDULE 1.34(b) 
 On April 25, 2006, one of the Company’s subsidiaries acquired certain assets of Delta Steamboat Company, Inc., including three vessels, the Delta Queen, the American Queen and the Mississippi Queen. The
Delta Queen Steamboat Company has a collective bargaining agreement with the American Maritime Officers union (“AMO”), which was not assumed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries in connection with the purchase of certain assets from
the Delta Queen Steamboat Company. On November 28, 2006, a grievance was noticed by AMO to Ambassadors International and Ambassadors Cruise Group as well as the Delta Steamboat Company and Delaware North Companies (the parent entity of Delta
Queen Steamboat Company) for failure to honor the collective bargaining agreement with AMO. The Company’s last communication in this regard was to inform the AMO that it has no current bargaining relationship with the AMO, nor a duty or
obligation to arbitrate. The arbitration of this matter is scheduled for the first week of May 2007 in New York City and the Company will not be a party to the arbitration proceedings.

 SCHEDULE 1.34(c) 
 In March 2007, the Company was informed that an employee on its vessel, the American Queen, has been handing out union authorization cards.

representatives of the independent public accountants of the Company and its subsidiaries at which the contents of the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Circular and related matters were discussed and, on the basis of the foregoing, nothing
has come to such counsel’s attention that would lead such counsel to believe that (i) as of the Applicable Time and as of the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, as the case may be, the Disclosure Package (except for the financial
statements and schedules and other financial data included or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom, as to which such counsel need make no statement) included any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (ii) that the Final Offering Circular or any amendment or supplement thereto
(except for financial statements and schedules and other financial data included or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom as to which such counsel need make no statement), at the time the Final Offering Circular was issued, at the
time any such amended or supplemented Offering Circular was issued and as of the Closing Date or the Option Closing Date, 

  

 A-3 

 
as the case may be, included or includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 
 In rendering such
opinion, such counsel may rely as to matters of fact (but not as to legal conclusions) to the extent they deem proper, on certificates of responsible officers of the Company and public officials. Such opinion shall not state that it is to be
governed or qualified by, or that it is otherwise subject to, any treatise, written policy or other document relating to legal opinions, including, without limitation, the Legal Opinion Accord of the ABA Section of Business Law (1991).

 EXHIBIT B 
 FORM OF LOCK-UP AGREEMENT 
 March     , 2007 
 Thomas Weisel Partners LLC 
 One Montgomery Street, Suite 3700 
 San Francisco, California 94104 
 Re: Lock-Up
Agreement 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 The
undersigned is an owner of record or beneficially of certain shares of Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of Ambassadors International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), or
securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock. The undersigned understands that you propose to enter into a Purchase Agreement with the Company providing for an offering (the “Offering”) of $85,000,000
aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 of the Company (the “Securities”), plus an option for up to $15,000,000 additional aggregate principal amount of the Securities. The Securities will be convertible into
shares of Common Stock. The undersigned recognizes that the Offering will be of benefit to the undersigned and will benefit the Company by, among other things, raising funds for the repayment of indebtedness, to fund future growth, for general
corporate purposes and for working capital. The undersigned acknowledges that you are relying on the representations and agreements of the undersigned contained in this letter in carrying out the Offering and in entering into arrangements with the
Company with respect to the Offering. 
 To induce you to continue your efforts in connection with the Offering, the undersigned hereby
agrees that, without your prior written consent (which consent may be withheld in your sole discretion), the undersigned will not, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending 90 days after the date of the final offering circular
relating to the Offering (the “Final Offering Circular”), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to
purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, or (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that
transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other
securities, in cash or otherwise[; provided, however, that the foregoing restriction shall not apply to the sale of shares received upon the exercise of options existing on the date hereof if such exercise and sale is in connection with the
undersigned terminating his or her service as a director of the Company][; provided further that the foregoing restriction shall not apply to the sale of shares pursuant to that certain Option Agreement, dated as of July 26, 2006, by and
between Ueberroth Family Trust, dated June 27, 1986 and Joseph J. Ueberroth Revocable Trust, dated March 5, 1997]. In addition, the undersigned agrees that, without your prior written consent (which consent may be withheld in its sole
discretion), the 

  

 B-1 

 
undersigned will not, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending 90 days after the date of the Final Offering Circular, make any demand
for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock. With respect to the Offering, the undersigned waives any registration rights
relating to registration under the Securities Act of any Common Stock or other securities owned either of record or beneficially by the undersigned, including any rights to receive notice of the Offering. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if: 
 (1)
during the last 17 days of the 90-day lock-up period, the Company issues an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs; or 
 (2) prior to the expiration of the 90-day lock-up period, the Company announces that it will release earnings results or becomes aware that material news or a material event will occur during the 16-day period
beginning on the last day of the 90-day lock-up period, 
 the restrictions imposed by this lock-up agreement shall continue to apply until the expiration of
the 18-day period beginning upon the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event, as applicable, unless Thomas Weisel Partners LLC waives, in writing, such extension. 
 The undersigned hereby acknowledges and agrees that written notice of any extension of the 90-day lock-up period pursuant to the previous paragraph will
be delivered by Thomas Weisel Partners LLC to the Company and that any such notice properly delivered will be deemed to have been given to, and received by, the undersigned. The undersigned further agrees that, prior to engaging in any transaction
or taking any other action that is subject to the terms of this lock-up agreement during the period from the date of this lock-up agreement to and including the 34th day following the expiration of the initial 90-day lock-up period, it will give
notice thereof to the Company and will not consummate such transaction or take any such action unless it has received written confirmation from the Company that the 90-day lock-up period (as may have been extended pursuant to the previous paragraph)
has expired. 
 The foregoing restrictions are expressly agreed to preclude the undersigned from engaging in any hedging or other transaction
which is designed to or reasonably expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition of the Common Stock even if such Common Stock would be disposed of by someone other than the undersigned. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions would
include without limitation any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including without limitation any put option or put equivalent position or call option or call equivalent position) with respect to any of the Common Stock or with
respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from such Common Stock. 
 The undersigned
understands that whether or not the Offering actually occurs depends on a number of factors, including stock market conditions. The Offering will only be made pursuant to a Purchase Agreement, the terms of which are subject to negotiation among the
Company and you. 
  

 B-2 

 The undersigned agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s
transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock held by the undersigned except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions. 
 This lock-up agreement is irrevocable and will be binding on the undersigned and the respective successors, heirs, personal representatives, and assigns of the
undersigned. This lock-up agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
