thereof to creditors of the Company, in any case for reason of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or the Company's
business, or in the event of any sale, receivership, insolvency or Bankruptcy Proceeding or assignment for the benefit of creditors, or

rights or remedies under or in connection with the Senior Debt, the Credit Agreement, the Other Documents, or otherwise available to Senior
Agent under applicable law; (b) that Class B Preferred Unit Holder will not assign or otherwise transfer the Junior Obligations

not have been paid to Class B Preferred Unit Holder, is received by Class B Preferred Unit Holder or any person on its behalf,
or provision is made for such payment or distribution, such payment or distribution shall be held for the benefit of and shall immediately
be paid or delivered directly to Senior Agent, with any necessary endorsement, for application to the payment of the Senior Debt; until
the Senior Debt shall have been fully paid cash and satisfied (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim
has been asserted); provided, however, the Senior Agent must provide written notice to the Class B Preferred Unit Holder within 60
days of Senior Agent’s actual knowledge that a cash payment or distribution was made in violation of the terms hereof that such
payment or distribution must be returned.

time of payment of, or renew, alter or increase the Senior Debt; (b) extend, modify or amend any agreement or any other document

with the Junior Obligations, or to affect the relative rights of Class B Preferred Unit Holder or any holder of the Junior Obligations
and creditors of the Company other than Senior Agent or holders of the Senior Debt, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent Class B
Preferred Unit Holder or any holders of the Junior Obligations from exercising all remedies against the Company otherwise permitted by
applicable law, subject to the rights of Senior Agent under the provisions of this Subordination Agreement and subject to the restrictions
set forth in Section 5 hereof.

 

10.            Obligations

    4

     

    

 

12.            Subrogation.
No payment or distribution to Senior Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Subordination Agreement shall entitle Class B Preferred

in writing to the exercise of such rights. After the payment of the Senior Debt in cash in full (other than contingent indemnification
obligations as to which no claim has been asserted) and provided no payments are voidable, Class B Preferred Unit Holder shall be
subrogated to the rights of Senior Agent to receive payments or distributions applicable to the Senior Debt to the extent the distributions
otherwise payable to Class B Preferred Unit Holder have been applied to the payment of the Senior Debt.

 

13.            Choice

WHEREAS, in connection with the Transactions and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Subscriber desires to subscribe for and purchase from the Issuer that number of shares of the Issuer’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Shares”), as set forth on the signature page hereto (the “Acquired Shares”), for a purchase price of $4.00 per share (the “Per Share Price”) and an aggregate purchase price set forth on the signature page hereto (the “Purchase Price”), and the Issuer desires to issue and sell to Subscriber the Acquired Shares in consideration of the payment of the Purchase Price by or on behalf of Subscriber to the Issuer on or prior to the Closing (as defined below); 
WHEREAS, the Issuer and Subscriber are executing and delivering this Subscription Agreement in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”);
WHEREAS, in connection with the Transactions, certain other “qualified institutional buyers” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) or institutional “accredited investors” (as such term is defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act) (each an “Other Subscriber”), have (severally and not jointly) entered into separate subscription agreements with the Issuer that are substantially similar to this Subscription Agreement (the “Other Subscription Agreements”), pursuant to which such investors have agreed to purchase Class A Shares on the Closing Date (as defined below) at the same Per Share Price as Subscriber (the “Other Acquired Shares”); 
WHEREAS, the aggregate amount of Class A Shares to be sold by the Issuer pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements equals 50 million Class A Shares;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the support agreements (in the form attached as Exhibit B to the Merger Agreement) (the “Support Agreements”) and certain of the Other Subscription Agreements, the Issuer has obtained from existing stockholders of the Issuer restrictions on transfer of, and voting obligations in respect of, all or a percentage of the Class A Shares held by such stockholders (the “Commitments”), as an inducement to Seller and the Issuer to enter into the Merger Agreement and to consummate the Transactions.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1.Subscription. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Subscriber hereby agrees to subscribe for and purchase, and the Issuer hereby agrees to issue and sell to Subscriber, upon the payment of the Purchase Price, the Acquired Shares (such subscription and issuance, the “Subscription”). 

									
			

2.Closing.
(a)The closing of the Subscription contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) is contingent upon the substantially concurrent consummation of the Transactions and shall occur immediately prior thereto. Not less than five (5) business days prior to the scheduled closing date of the Transactions (the “Closing Date”), the Issuer shall provide written notice to Subscriber (the “Closing Notice”) of such Closing Date. Subscriber shall deliver to the Issuer no later than one (1) business day before the Closing Date (as specified in the Closing Notice or such other date as otherwise agreed to by the Issuer and Subscriber, the “Purchase Price Payment Date”) the Purchase Price for the Acquired Shares by wire transfer of U.S. dollars in immediately available funds (i) to the account specified by the Issuer in the Closing Notice, to be held in a third-party escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) designated by the Issuer prior to the Closing Date for the benefit of Subscriber until the Closing Date or (ii) in the case of a Subscriber that is (1) an “investment company” registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (2) that is advised by an investment adviser subject to regulation under the Investment Advisors Act of 1940, as amended, or (3) that its internal compliance policies and procedures so require it, to an account specified by the Issuer otherwise mutually agreed by Subscriber and the Issuer (“Alternative Settlement Procedures”). For the avoidance of doubt, mutually agreeable Alternative Settlement Procedures shall include, without limitation, Subscriber delivering to the Issuer on the Closing Date the Purchase Price for the Acquired Shares by wire transfer of U.S. dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by the Issuer in the Closing Notice against delivery to the undersigned of the Acquired Shares in book entry form as set forth in the following sentence.

Unless otherwise provided pursuant to Alternative Settlement Procedures, upon the transfer of the Subscriber’s Deliveries by the Issuer to Subscriber (or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions), the Issuer shall, or shall cause the escrow agent for the Escrow Account to, on the Closing Date, release the Purchase Price from the Escrow Account to the Issuer. In the event the closing of the Transactions does not occur within two (2) business days of the Closing Date specified in the Closing Notice, unless otherwise agreed by the Issuer and Subscriber, the Issuer shall, or shall cause the escrow agent for the Escrow Account to, promptly (but not later than two (2) business days thereafter) return the Purchase Price to Subscriber by wire transfer of U.S. dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by Subscriber, and any book entries or stock certificates shall be deemed cancelled.
(b)The Closing shall be subject to the satisfaction, or valid waiver by each of the parties hereto, of the conditions that, on the Closing Date:
(i)solely with respect to Subscriber, (A) the representations and warranties made by the Issuer (other than the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3(b), Section 3(c) and Section 3(g)) in this Subscription Agreement shall be true and correct as of the Closing Date (other than those representations and warranties expressly made as of an earlier date, which shall be true and correct as of such date), after giving effect to the consummation of the Transactions, except, in the case of this clause (B), for any failure of any such representation and warranty to be so true and correct (without giving effect to any qualification by materiality or Material Adverse Effect (as defined below) contained therein) that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (B) the representations and warranties made by the Issuer set forth in Section 3(b), Section 3(c) and Section 3(g) shall be true and correct in all respects as of the Closing Date (other than those representations and warranties expressly made as of an earlier date, which shall be true and correct in all respects as of such date and, solely in the case of Section 3(g), other than de minimis inaccuracies), in each case without giving effect to the consummation of the Transactions;
(ii)solely with respect to the Issuer, the representations and warranties made by Subscriber in this Subscription Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date (other than those representations and warranties expressly made as of an earlier date, which 
									
		2
	

shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date, and other than those representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect, which shall be true and correct in all respects as of the Closing Date), in each case without giving effect to the consummation of the Transactions;
(iii)solely with respect to the Issuer, Subscriber shall have delivered the Purchase Price in compliance with the terms of this Subscription Agreement;
(iv)no governmental authority having applicable jurisdiction shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any material judgment, order, law, rule or regulation (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) which is then in effect and has the effect of restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting or making illegal the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement;
(v)no suspension of the qualification of the Class A Shares for offering or sale or trading in any applicable jurisdiction, no suspension or removal from listing of the Acquired Shares on The Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”) and no initiation or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes or delisting, shall have occurred;
(vi)the Issuer’s stockholders shall have approved the issuance of the Acquired Shares and Other Acquired Shares as and if required by Nasdaq rules;
(vii)solely with respect to Subscriber, the Issuer shall have filed with Nasdaq a true and complete Notification Form: Listing of Additional Shares covering the Acquired Shares and Other Acquired Shares;
(viii)all conditions precedent to the closing of the Transactions set forth in the Merger Agreement shall have been satisfied or waived (as determined by the Merger Agreement and related documentation) (other than those conditions that may only be satisfied at the closing of the Transactions, but subject to satisfaction or waiver by such party of such conditions as of the closing of the Transactions), and the closing of the Transactions shall be scheduled to occur substantially concurrently with or immediately following the Closing; 
(ix)solely with respect to Subscriber, there shall have been no amendment, waiver or modification to the Other Subscription Agreements that materially benefits any Other Subscribers thereunder unless the Subscriber has been offered substantially the same benefits; and
(x)solely with respect to Subscriber, there has been no amendment, modification or supplement to the Merger Agreement that increases the aggregate consideration payable by the Issuer by more than 5% unless Subscriber has consented to such amendment, modification or supplement in writing.
(c)In addition to the conditions set forth in Section 2(b), the obligation of Subscriber to consummate the Closing shall be subject to the satisfaction or valid waiver by Subscriber of the condition that, on the Closing Date, the Issuer shall have performed, satisfied and complied with the covenants, agreements and conditions required by this Subscription Agreement to be performed, satisfied or complied with by the Issuer at or prior to the Closing, except where the failure of such performance or compliance would not reasonably be expected to prevent, materially delay, or materially impair the ability of the Issuer to consummate the Closing. 
(d)Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement, Subscriber and the Issuer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to reasonably assist and cooperate with the other party hereto in doing, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under applicable legal requirements to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

To the extent Subscriber has entered into a separate lock-up agreement with the Issuer in connection with Subscriber’s evaluation of the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement, the terms of any Other Lock-Up are not materially more advantageous to any Other Subscriber party thereto than to Subscriber under its lock-up agreement with the Issuer.

(u)Following the Closing, the Acquired Shares will not be subject to any Transfer Restriction. The term “Transfer Restriction” means any condition to or restriction on the ability of Subscriber to pledge, sell, assign or otherwise transfer the Acquired Shares under any organizational document or agreement of, by or with the Issuer, but excluding the restrictions on transfer described in Section 4(g) hereof with respect to the status of the Acquired Shares as “restricted securities” pending their registration for resale under the Securities Act in accordance with the terms of this Subscription Agreement.

To the extent Subscriber has entered into a Support Agreement, no other Commitments include terms and conditions that are materially more advantageous to any stockholder of the Issuer party thereto than Subscriber under its Support Agreement (it being understood that certain Other Commitments apply to all the Class A Shares held by the applicable stockholder and certain Other Commitments apply to 33% of the Class A Shares held by the applicable stockholder), and the terms of such other Commitments have not been amended, released, waived or otherwise modified following the date of this Subscription Agreement in any way that are materially more advantageous to any such other stockholder than Subscriber under its Support Agreement.

5.Registration Rights.
(a)The Issuer agrees that, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) calendar days after the Closing Date (the “Filing Date”), the Issuer will file with the Commission (at the Issuer’s sole cost and expense) a registration statement registering the resale of the Acquired Shares (the “Registration Statement”), and the Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) the 60th calendar day (or 90th calendar day if the Commission notifies the Issuer that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the Closing and (ii) the 5th business day after the date the Issuer is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review (such earlier date, the “Effectiveness Date”); provided, however, that if the Commission is closed for operations due to a government shutdown or otherwise, the Effectiveness Date shall be extended by the same amount of days that the Commission remains closed for operations, provided, further, that the Issuer’s obligations to include the Acquired Shares in the Registration Statement are contingent upon Subscriber furnishing in writing to the Issuer such information regarding Subscriber, the securities of the Issuer held by Subscriber, the intended method of disposition of the Acquired Shares (which shall be limited to non-underwritten public offerings) and such other information as shall be reasonably requested by the Issuer to effect the registration of the Acquired Shares, and Subscriber shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Issuer may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations, including providing that the Issuer shall be entitled to postpone and suspend the effectiveness or use of the Registration Statement during any customary blackout or similar period or as permitted under Section 5(c); provided, however, under no circumstances shall Subscriber be required to sign any type of lock-up agreement. Any failure by the Issuer to file the Registration Statement by the Filing Date or to effect such Registration Statement by the Effectiveness Date shall not otherwise relieve the Issuer of its obligations to file or effect the Registration Statement as set forth above in this Section 5. The Issuer will provide a draft of the Registration Statement to the undersigned for review at least three (3) business days in advance of filing the Registration Statement. In no event shall the undersigned be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless requested by the Commission; provided, that, if the Commission requests that the undersigned be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, the undersigned will have an opportunity to withdraw its Acquired Shares from the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Commission prevents the Issuer from including any or all of the shares proposed to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the Acquired Shares by the applicable stockholders or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale 
									
		12
	

such number of Acquired Shares which is equal to the maximum number of Acquired Shares as is permitted by the Commission. In such event, the number of Acquired Shares or other Acquired Shares to be registered for the undersigned and each Other Subscriber named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling shareholders (except to the extent otherwise required by the Commission). In the event the Issuer amends the Registration Statement in accordance with the foregoing, the Issuer will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by the Commission, one or more registration statements to register the resale of those Registrable Securities (as defined below) that were not registered on the initial Registration Statement, as so amended. The Issuer will use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the continuous effectiveness of the Registration Statement until all such securities cease to be Registrable Securities (as defined below) or such shorter period upon which each undersigned party with Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement have notified the Issuer that such Registrable Securities have actually been sold. The Issuer will provide all customary and commercially reasonable cooperation necessary to enable the undersigned to resell Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), as applicable, qualify the Registrable Securities for listing on the primary stock exchange on which its Class A Shares are then listed, update or amend the Registration Statement as necessary to include Registrable Securities and provide customary notice to holders of Registrable Securities. “Registrable Securities” shall mean, as of any date of determination, the Acquired Shares and any other equity security of the Issuer issued or issuable with respect to the Acquired Shares by way of share split, dividend, distribution, recapitalization, merger, exchange, replacement or similar event or otherwise. As to any particular Registrable Securities, once issued, such securities shall cease to be Registrable Securities at the earliest of:  (A) when the undersigned ceases to hold any Registrable Securities; (B) the date all Registrable Securities held by the undersigned may be sold without restriction under Rule 144, including without limitation, any volume and manner of sale restrictions which may be applicable to affiliates under Rule 144, and without the requirement for the Issuer to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the requirements of Rule 144(i)(2)); (C) when they shall have ceased to be outstanding; or (D) four (4) years from the date of effectiveness of the Registration Statement.
(b)In the case of the registration, qualification, exemption or compliance effected by the Issuer pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, the Issuer shall, upon reasonable request, inform Subscriber as to the status of such registration, qualification, exemption and compliance. At its expense the Issuer shall:
(i)except for such times as the Issuer is permitted hereunder to suspend the use of the prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such registration, and any qualification, exemption or compliance under state securities laws which the Issuer determines to obtain, continuously effective with respect to Subscriber, and to keep the applicable Registration Statement or any subsequent shelf registration statement free of any material misstatements or omissions, for as long as Subscriber continues to hold Registrable Securities;
(ii)advise Subscriber, as promptly as practicable but in any event, within two (2) business days:
(1)when a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when such Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;
(2)of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose;
(3)of the receipt by the Issuer of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Acquired Shares included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and
(4)subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration 
									
		13
	

Statement or prospectus included therein so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (and in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Issuer shall not, when so advising Subscriber of such events, provide Subscriber with any material, nonpublic information regarding the Issuer other than to the extent that providing notice to Subscriber of the occurrence of the events listed in (1) through (4) above may constitute material, nonpublic information regarding the Issuer;
(iii)use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable;
(iv)upon the occurrence of any event contemplated in Section 5(b)(ii)(4), except for such times as the Issuer is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, the Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Acquired Shares included therein, such prospectus will not include any 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;
(v)use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Acquired Shares to be listed on the primary securities exchange or market, if any, on which the Class A Shares issued by the Issuer have been listed; and
(vi)use its commercially reasonable efforts to take all other steps reasonably necessary to effect the registration of the Acquired Shares contemplated hereby and, for so long as Subscriber holds Acquired Shares, to enable Subscriber to sell the Acquired Shares under Rule 144.
(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subscription Agreement, the Issuer shall be entitled to delay the filing or postpone the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, and from time to time to require Subscriber not to sell under the Registration Statement or to suspend the effectiveness thereof, if the negotiation or consummation of a transaction by the Issuer or its subsidiaries is pending or an event has occurred, which negotiation, consummation or event, the Issuer’s board of directors reasonably believes, would require additional disclosure by the Issuer in the Registration Statement of material information that the Issuer has a bona fide business purpose for keeping confidential and the non-disclosure of which in the Registration Statement would be expected, in the reasonable determination of the Issuer’s board of directors, would be expected to cause the Registration Statement to fail to comply with applicable disclosure requirements (each such circumstance, a “Suspension Event”); provided, however, that the Issuer may not delay or suspend the Registration Statement on more than two occasions or for more than forty five (45) consecutive calendar days, or more than ninety (90) total calendar days, in each case during any twelve (12)-month period. Upon receipt of any written notice from the Issuer of the happening of any Suspension Event during the period that the Registration Statement is effective or if as a result of a Suspension Event the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, Subscriber agrees that (i) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Acquired Shares under the Registration Statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until Subscriber receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which the Issuer agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by the Issuer that it may resume such offers and sales, and (ii) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by the Issuer unless otherwise required by law or subpoena. If so directed by the Issuer, Subscriber will deliver to the Issuer or, in Subscriber’s sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Acquired Shares in Subscriber’s possession; provided, however, that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Acquired Shares shall not apply (i) to the 
									
		14
	

extent Subscriber is required to retain a copy of such prospectus (a) in order to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, self-regulatory or professional requirements or (b) in accordance with a bona fide pre-existing document retention policy or (ii) to copies stored electronically on archival servers as a result of automatic data back-up.
(d)Subscriber may deliver written notice (including via email in accordance with Section 9(n), an “Opt-Out Notice”) to the Issuer requesting that Subscriber not receive notices from the Issuer otherwise required by this Section 5; provided, however, that Subscriber may later revoke any such Opt-Out Notice in writing. Following receipt of an Opt-Out Notice from Subscriber (unless subsequently revoked), (i) the Issuer shall not deliver any such notices to Subscriber and Subscriber shall no longer be entitled to the rights associated with any such notice and (ii) each time prior to Subscriber’s intended use of an effective Registration Statement, Subscriber will notify the Issuer in writing at least two (2) business days in advance of such intended use, and if a notice of a Suspension Event was previously delivered (or would have been delivered but for the provisions of this Section 5(d)) and the related suspension period remains in effect, the Issuer will so notify Subscriber, within one (1) business day of Subscriber’s notification to the Issuer, by delivering to Subscriber a copy of such previous notice of Suspension Event, and thereafter will provide Subscriber with the related notice of the conclusion of such Suspension Event promptly following its availability.
(e)Indemnification.
(i)The Issuer shall, notwithstanding the termination of this Subscription Agreement, indemnify, defend and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, Subscriber, its directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, partners, members, managers, stockholders, investment advisors and sub-advisors, each person who controls Subscriber (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and each affiliate of Subscriber (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, that arise out of or are based upon (A) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement (or incorporated by reference therein), prospectus included in any Registration Statement (“Prospectus”) or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or document incorporated by reference therein or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Issuer by or on behalf of such Subscriber expressly for use therein. The Issuer shall notify Subscriber promptly of the institution, threat or assertion (to the Issuer’s knowledge) of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the Transactions; provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this Section 5(e) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Issuer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), nor shall the Issuer be liable for any Losses to the extent they arise out of or are based upon a violation which occurs (A) in connection with any failure of such person to deliver or cause to be delivered a Prospectus made available by the Issuer in a timely manner or (B) in connection with any offers or sales effected by or on behalf of Subscriber in violation of this Subscription Agreement.
(ii)In connection with any Registration Statement in which Subscriber is participating, Subscriber shall furnish to the Issuer in writing such information as the Issuer reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus. In connection with any Registration Statement in which Subscriber is participating, Subscriber agrees, severally and not jointly with any Other Subscriber or other investor that is a party to the Other Subscription Agreements, to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, the Issuer, its directors and officers and agents and employees and each person or entity who controls the Issuer (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act) against any Losses, resulting from or arising out of any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or 
									
		15
	

omission is contained (or not contained in the case of an omission) in and are based on any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by or on behalf of Subscriber expressly for use therein; provided, however, that in no event shall the aggregate liability of Subscriber (including, for the avoidance of doubt, under Section 5(e)(v)) be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by Subscriber from the sale of Acquired Shares pursuant to such Registration Statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation.
(iii)Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (1) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (2) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who elects not to assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (plus local counsel) for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of legal counsel to any indemnified party a conflict of interest exists between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement 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 or includes any admission as to fault, culpability or failure to act on the party of such indemnified party.
(iv)The indemnification provided under this Subscription Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director, employee, agent, affiliate or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Acquired Shares.
(v)If the indemnification provided under this Section 5(e) from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any Losses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by (or not made by, in the case of an omission), or relates to information supplied by (or not supplied by, in the case of an omission), such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the Losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 5(e)(i), 5(e)(ii), and 5(e)(iii), any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 5(e)(v) from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
(f)Piggyback Rights.  Subscriber agrees that each New Holder (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) and the Seller and each 5% Insider (as defined in the Shareholders Agreements) shall have piggyback registration rights in respect of any Registration Statement that is filed pursuant to this Section 5, pursuant to and in accordance with Section 5.6 of the Registration Rights Agreement and Section 8 of the Shareholder Agreements, respectively, and that the provisions of each of the Registration Rights Agreement and the Shareholder Agreements shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the exercise of any such piggyback registration rights by any such New Holder, the Seller or any such 5% Insider in respect of any such Registration Statement.
									
		16
	

6.Termination.  This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect (except for those provisions expressly contemplated to survive termination of this Subscription Agreement), and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof (except with respect to those provisions expressly contemplated to survive termination of this Subscription Agreement), upon the earlier to occur of (a) such date and time as the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (c) if any of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 2 of this Subscription Agreement are not satisfied (or waived, to the extent waivable) on or prior to the earlier of the Closing Date or October 14, 2022 (the “Outside Date”), or become incapable of being satisfied on or prior to the earlier of the Closing Date or the Outside Date, and, as a result thereof, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement are not consummated at the Closing, or (d) the Outside Date; provided, that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful breach hereof prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover Losses, liabilities or damages arising from such breach; provided, further, that Subscriber may, by written notice to the Issuer, extend the Outside Date beyond October 14, 2022. The Issuer shall promptly notify Subscriber in writing (with email being sufficient) of the termination of the Merger Agreement. Upon the termination hereof, any monies paid by Subscriber to the Issuer in connection herewith shall promptly (and in any event within one (1) business day) be returned in full to Subscriber by wire transfer of U.S. dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by Subscriber, without any deduction for or on account of any tax withholding, charges or set-off, whether or not the Transactions shall have been consummated.
7.Additional Agreements of Subscriber.
(a)Subscriber agrees that none of the Seller, the Company or any of the Placement Agents shall be liable to Subscriber for any action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them or have any liability or obligation (including without limitation, for or with respect to any losses, claims, damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, costs, expenses or disbursements incurred by Subscriber, the Issuer or any other person or entity), whether in contract, tort or otherwise, to Subscriber, or to any person claiming through Subscriber, in respect of the Subscription.

(r)The Issuer hereto agrees, and the Subscriber acknowledges such agreement for the express benefit of the Placement Agent, its respective affiliates and its respective representatives that:
									
		22
	

(i)neither the Placement Agents nor any of their affiliates or any of their representatives (1) have any duties or obligations other than those specifically set forth herein or in the engagement letter among the Issuer and each Placement Agent (each an “Engagement Letter”, and collectively, the “Engagement Letters”); (2) shall be liable for any improper payment made in accordance with the information provided by the Issuer; (3) makes any representation or warranty, or has any responsibilities as to the validity, accuracy, value or genuineness of any information, certificates or documentation delivered by or on behalf of the Issuer pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or the Merger Agreement or any agreement contemplated therein, or in connection with any of the Transactions; or (4) shall be liable (x) for any action taken, suffered or omitted by any of them in good faith and reasonably believed to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Subscription Agreement, the Merger Agreement or any agreement contemplated therein, or (y) for anything which any of them may do or refrain from doing in connection with this Subscription Agreement, the Merger Agreement or any agreement contemplated therein, except for such party’s own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. 
(s)The Placement Agents, their affiliates and their representatives shall be entitled to (1) rely on, and shall be protected in acting upon, any certificate, instrument, opinion, notice, letter or any other document or security delivered to any of them by or on behalf of the Issuer, and (2) be indemnified by the Issuer for acting as Placement Agents hereunder pursuant the indemnification provisions set forth in the Engagement Letters.

The decision of Subscriber to purchase the Acquired Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement has been made by Subscriber independently of any Other Subscriber or any other investor and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Issuer, the Company or any of their respective subsidiaries which may have been made or given by any Other Subscriber or investor or by any agent or employee of any Other Subscriber or investor, and neither Subscriber nor any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any Other Subscriber or investor (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions.  The decision of each Other Subscriber to purchase Other Acquired Shares pursuant to an Other Subscription Agreement has been made by such Other Subscriber independently of Subscriber and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Issuer, the Company or any of their respective subsidiaries which may have been made or given by Subscriber.  Nothing contained herein or in any Other Subscription Agreement, and no action taken by Subscriber or investor pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Subscriber and any Other Subscribers or other investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that Subscriber and any Other Subscribers or other investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements.  Subscriber acknowledges that no Other Subscriber has acted as agent for Subscriber in connection with making its investment hereunder and no Other Subscriber will be acting as agent of Subscriber in connection with monitoring its investment in the Acquired Shares or enforcing its rights under this Subscription Agreement.  Subscriber shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Subscription Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any Other Subscriber or investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
(u)In connection with all aspects of this Subscription Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby and the Transaction, the Issuer acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the purchase and sale of the Acquired Shares constitute an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Issuer, on the one hand, and Subscriber, on the other hand, and the Issuer is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) in connection with the process leading to this Subscription Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby and the Transactions, Subscriber is and has been acting solely as a principal and not as a financial 
									
		23
	

advisor, agent or fiduciary, for the Issuer or the Issuer’s affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, employees or creditors or any other person, (iii) neither Subscriber nor any of its affiliates has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in the Issuer or the Issuer’s affiliates’ favor with respect to any of this Subscription Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby, the process leading hereto or the Transactions (irrespective of whether Subscriber or any of its affiliates have advised or are currently advising the Issuer or any of its affiliates on other matters) and neither Subscriber nor any of its affiliates has any obligation to the Issuer or any of the Issuer’s affiliates with respect to the Other Subscription Agreements or the Transactions, (iv) Subscriber and its affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from the Issuer and its affiliates and neither Subscriber nor any of its affiliates shall have any obligation to disclose any of such interests, and (v) neither Subscriber nor any of its affiliates has provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to this Subscription Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the Transactions, and the Issuer has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent the Issuer deemed appropriate.  The Issuer waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it may have against Subscriber and its affiliates with respect to any breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty as a consequence of this Subscription Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or the Transactions.
(v)The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Subscription Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.  The language used in this Subscription Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.  Unless the context otherwise requires, (i) all references to Sections, Schedules or Exhibits are to Sections, Schedules or Exhibits contained in or attached to this Subscription Agreement, (ii) each accounting term not otherwise defined in this Subscription Agreement has the meaning assigned to it in accordance with GAAP, (iii) words in the singular or plural include the singular and plural and pronouns stated in either the masculine, the feminine or neuter gender shall include the masculine, feminine and neuter, (iv) the use of the word “including” in this Subscription Agreement shall be by way of example rather than limitation, and (v) the word “or” shall not be exclusive.
(w)If Subscriber is a Massachusetts Business Trust, a copy of the Agreement and Declaration of Trust of Subscriber or any affiliate thereof is on file with the Secretary of State of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and notice is hereby given that the Subscription Agreement is executed on behalf of the trustees of Subscriber or any affiliate thereof as trustees and not individually and that the obligations of the Subscription Agreement are not binding on any of the trustees, officers or stockholders of Subscriber or any affiliate thereof individually but are binding only upon Subscriber or any affiliate thereof and its assets and property.
(x)This Subscription Agreement may only be enforced against, and a claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Subscription Agreement may only be brought by the expressly named party hereto and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party.  Except to the extent a named party, no present, former or future Affiliate, officer, director, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, agent, attorney or other Representative of any party or their Affiliates shall have any Liability (whether in contract, in tort or otherwise) for any obligations or Liabilities of any party which is not otherwise expressly identified as a party, and no recourse shall be brought or granted against any of them, by virtue of or based upon any alleged misrepresentation or inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations, warranties, agreements or covenants of any party under this Subscription Agreement for any claim based upon, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement or in respect of any representations made or alleged to have been made in connection therewith.
