for any reason to remain continuously effective as to all Registrable Securities for which it is required to be effective, or the Holders are not permitted to utilize the Prospectus therein to resell such Registrable Securities, for in any such
cases ten (10) Trading Days (which need not be consecutive days) in the aggregate during any 12-month period (any such failure or breach being referred to as an “Event,” and for purposes of clauses (i) and (iii) the date on which
such Event occurs, or for purposes of clause (ii) the date on which such five (5) Trading Day period is exceeded, or for purposes of clause (iv) the date on which such ten (10) Trading Day period is exceeded, being referred to as an “Event
Date”), then in addition to any other rights the Holders may have hereunder or under applicable law: (x) on each such Event Date the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to
1.5% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for any Registrable Securities then held by such Holder; and (y) on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have
been cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1.5% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement for any Registrable Securities then held by such Holder. If the Company fails to pay any liquidated damages pursuant to this Section in full within seven days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate
of 15% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Holder, accruing daily from the date such liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full.

  
 3. Registration Procedures 
  
 In connection with the Company’s registration
obligations hereunder, the Company shall: 

 (a) Not less than three Trading Days prior to the filing of the Registration Statement or
any related Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, the Company shall, (i) furnish to the Holders copies of all such documents proposed to be filed (including documents incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference to the extent
requested by such Person) which documents will be subject to the review of such Holders, and (ii) cause its officers and directors, counsel and independent certified public accountants to respond to such inquiries as shall be necessary, in the
reasonable opinion of respective counsel to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act. The Company shall not file the Registration Statement or any such Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto to which
the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities shall reasonably object in good faith. 
  
 (b) (i) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, to the Registration Statement and the
Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective as to the applicable Registrable Securities for the Effectiveness Period; (ii) cause the related Prospectus to be amended or
supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented or amended to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; (iii) respond as promptly as reasonably possible to any comments received from the Commission with respect to the Registration
Statement or any amendment thereto; and (iv) comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement during
the applicable period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Holders thereof set forth in the Registration Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus as so supplemented. 
  
 (c) Notify the Holders of Registrable Securities to be sold
as promptly as reasonably possible (and, in the case of (i)(A) below, not less than two Trading Days prior to such filing) and (if requested by any such Person) confirm such notice in writing promptly following the day (i) (A) when a Prospectus or
any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement is proposed to be filed; (B) when the Commission notifies the Company whether there will be a “review” of the Registration Statement and whenever the
Commission comments in writing on the Registration Statement (the Company shall upon request provide true and complete copies thereof and all written responses thereto to each of the Holders); and (C) with respect to the Registration Statement or
any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective; (ii) of any request by the Commission or any other Federal or state governmental authority during the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement for amendments or
supplements to the Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement covering any or all of the Registrable Securities or the initiation of any Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from
qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such purpose; and (v) of the occurrence of any event or passage of time that makes the financial statements
included in the Registration Statement ineligible 

 for inclusion therein or any statement made in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to the Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit 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, not misleading. 
  
 (d) Use its
commercially reasonable efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if issued, obtain the withdrawal of (i) any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification)
of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, at the earliest practicable moment. 
  
 (e) Furnish to each Holder, without charge, at least one conformed copy of the Registration Statement and each amendment thereto,
including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference to the extent requested by such Person, and all exhibits to the extent requested by such Person (including those previously
furnished or incorporated by reference) promptly after the filing of such documents with the Commission. 
  
 (f) Promptly deliver to each Holder, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of prospectus)
and each amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons may reasonably request in connection with resales by the Holder of Registrable Securities. The Company hereby consents to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by
each of the selling Holders in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, except after the giving on any notice pursuant to Section 3(b). 
  
 (g) Prior to any resale of Registrable Securities by a
Holder, use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from the Registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities
for the resale by the Holder under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any Holder reasonably requests in writing, to keep each of the registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective
during the Effectiveness Period and to do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement; provided, that the Company shall not
be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, subject the Company to any material tax in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or file a general consent to service of process
in any such jurisdiction. 
  
 (h) If requested by
the Holders, cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be delivered 

 to a transferee pursuant to the Registration Statement, which certificates shall be free, to the extent
permitted by the Purchase Agreement, of all restrictive legends, and to enable such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as any such Holders may request. 
  
 (i) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section
3(b)(v), as promptly as reasonably possible, prepare a supplement or amendment, including a post-effective amendment, to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated
therein by reference, and file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered, neither the Registration Statement nor such Prospectus will 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, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 
  
 (j) Comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission. 
  
 The Company may require each selling Holder to furnish to the Company a certified statement as to the number of shares of
Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and, if required by the Commission, the person thereof that has voting and dispositive control over the Shares. 
  

4. Registration Expenses. All fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this Agreement by the Company shall be borne
by the Company whether or not any Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to the Registration Statement. The fees and expenses referred to in the foregoing sentence shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including,
without limitation, fees and expenses (A) with respect to filings required to be made with the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed for trading, and (B) in compliance with applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws), (ii)
printing expenses (including, without limitation, expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Securities and of printing prospectuses if the printing of prospectuses is reasonably requested by the holders of a majority of the Registrable
Securities included in the Registration Statement), (iii) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, (iv) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, (v) Securities Act liability insurance, if the Company so desires such insurance, and (vi)
fees and expenses of all other Persons retained by the Company in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, the Company shall be responsible for all of its internal expenses incurred in
connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit and
the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities on any securities exchange as required hereunder. 
  
 5. Indemnification 
  
 (a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, indemnify and hold
harmless each Holder, the officers, directors, agents and employees of each of them, each Person who controls any such 

 Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the
officers, directors, agents and employees of each such controlling Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, to the extent arising out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Prospectus
or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that (1) such untrue statements or
omissions are based solely upon information regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Holder or such Holder’s proposed method of
distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement, such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto (it being
understood that the Holder has approved Annex A hereto for this purpose) or (2) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type specified in Section 3(b)(ii)-(v), the use by such Holder of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the
Company has notified such Holder in writing that the Prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder of the Advice contemplated in Section 6(d). The Company shall notify the Holders promptly of the institution, threat or
assertion of any Proceeding of which the Company is aware in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
  
 (b) Indemnification by Holders. Each Holder shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its
directors, officers, agents and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling
Persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, to the extent arising out of or based upon: (x) such Holder’s failure to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities
Act or (y) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or
relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (i) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained
in any information so furnished in writing by such Holder to the Company specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement or such Prospectus or (ii) to the extent that (1) such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information
regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Holder or such Holder’s proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was
reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement (it being understood that the Holder has approved Annex A hereto for this purpose), such Prospectus or such form 

 of Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (2) in the case of an occurrence of an event
of the type specified in Section 3(b)(ii)-(v), the use by such Holder of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company has notified such Holder in writing that the Prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder
of the Advice contemplated in Section 6(d). In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving
rise to such indemnification obligation. 
  
 (c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the
Person from whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnified Party and the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof; provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or
liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have prejudiced
the Indemnifying Party. 
  
 An Indemnified Party
shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying
Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding;
or (3) the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to
exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the
Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be
liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any
Indemnified Party is a 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. 
  
 All reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party
(including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten
Trading Days of written notice thereof to 

 the Indemnifying Party; provided, that the Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the
Indemnifying Party for that portion of such fees and expenses applicable to such actions for which such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder, determined based upon the relative faults of the parties. 
  
 (d) Contribution. If a claim for indemnification
under Section 5(a) or 5(b) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party (by reason of public policy or otherwise), then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as
well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such 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 of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access
to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5(c), any reasonable
attorneys’ or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was
available to such party in accordance with its terms. 
  
 The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable
considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5(d), no Holder shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the proceeds actually
received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission, except in the case of fraud by such Holder. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties. 
  
 6. Miscellaneous 
  
 (a) No Piggyback on Registrations. The Company may
not include securities of the Company in a Registration Statement other than the Registrable Securities, and the Company shall not after the date hereof enter into any agreement providing any such right to any of its security holders. The Company
shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain waivers of piggyback registration rights from existing security holders that have such rights and would otherwise be entitled to exercise them with respect to a Registration Statement. Except as set
forth in the SEC Reports, no Person has any right to cause the Company to effect the registration under the Securities Act of any securities of the Company. The Company shall not file any other registration statement until after the Effective Date.

 (b) Compliance. Each Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the
prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. 
  
 (c) Discontinued Disposition. Each Holder agrees by its acquisition of such Registrable Securities
that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 3(b), such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement until such
Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented Prospectus and/or amended Registration Statement or until it is advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus may be resumed, and,
in either case, has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in such Prospectus or Registration Statement. The Company may provide appropriate stop orders to enforce
the provisions of this paragraph. 
  
 (d)
Piggy-Back Registrations. If at any time during the Effectiveness Period there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a
registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then
equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with the stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall send
to each Holder a written notice of such determination and, if within ten (10) days after the date of such notice, any such Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such
Registrable Securities such Holder requests to be registered, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of registration rights. 
  
 (e) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended,
modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Company and each Holder of the then outstanding Registrable Securities. 
  
 (f) Lock-up. If the Company delivers to the holders
of Registrable Securities a certificate signed by an officer of the Company stating that the managing underwriter of a registered public offering of securities by the Company (the “Offering”) has reasonably requested that such
holders refrain from selling or otherwise transferring or disposing of any Registrable Securities or other securities of the Company then held by such holders for a specified period of time during the Offering then, beginning on the later of (i) the
10th business day after receipt of such certificate from the Company and (ii) the 

 commencement of the Offering (which shall be the effective date of the registration statement for such
Offering), such holders shall refrain from selling or otherwise transferring or disposing of any Registrable Securities or other Company securities then held by such holders for a specified period of time that is customary under the circumstances
(not to exceed 45 days) following the effective date of the registration statement for such Offering; provided, however, that no holder of Registrable Securities shall be restrained from selling or otherwise transferring or disposing of Registrable
Securities under this Section 6(f) unless the directors and officers of the Company are also so restrained. 
  
 (g) Suspension of Trading. At any time after the Registrable Securities are covered by an effective Registration Statement, the
Company may deliver to the holders of such Registrable Securities a certificate (the “Suspension Certificate”) approved by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and signed by an officer of the Company stating that the
effectiveness of and sales of Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement would: 
  
 (i) materially interfere with any transaction that would require the Company to prepare financial statements under the Securities Act that
the Company would otherwise not be required to prepare in order to comply with its obligations under the Exchange Act, or 
  
 (ii) require public disclosure of any transaction of the type discussed in Section 6(g)(i) prior to the time such disclosure might
otherwise be required. 
  
 Beginning ten (10)
business days after the receipt of a Suspension Certificate by holders of Registrable Securities, the Company may, in its discretion, require such holders of Registrable Securities to refrain from selling or otherwise transferring or disposing of
any Registrable Securities or other Company securities then held by such holders for a specified period of time that is customary under the circumstances (not to exceed 30 days). Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Company shall be permitted
to cause holders of Registrable Securities to so refrain from selling or otherwise transferring or disposing of any Registrable Securities or other securities of the Company on only one occasion during each twelve consecutive month period that the
Registration Statement remains effective. The Company may impose stop transfer instructions to enforce any required agreement of the holders under this Section 6(e). If the holders of Registrable Securities are restrained from selling or otherwise
transferring or disposing of Registrable Securities under this Section 6(g) for a period that exceeds 30 consecutive days, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1.5% of the
aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for any Registrable Securities then held by such Holder, for each 30 day period during which the holders of Registrable Securities are so restrained. 

 (h) Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or
permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number provided for below
prior to 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a Trading Day, (ii) the Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number provided for below later than 6:30 p.m. (New York City
time) on any date and earlier than 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on such date, (iii) the Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such
notice is required to be given. The address for such notices and communications shall be delivered and addressed as set forth in the Purchase Agreement 
  
 (i) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns
of each of the parties and shall inure to the benefit of each Holder. Each Holder may assign their respective rights hereunder in the manner and to the Persons as permitted under the Purchase Agreement. 
  
 (j) Execution and Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile
transmission, such signature shall create a valid binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature were the original thereof. 

 
 (k) Governing Law. All questions concerning the
construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law
thereof. 
  
 (l) Cumulative Remedies. The
remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. 
  
 (m) Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to
be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto
shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared
to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable. 

 (n) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only
and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof. 
  
 (o) Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser hereunder is several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser hereunder, and no Purchaser
shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other agreement or document delivered at any closing, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or
thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert with respect to such obligations or the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be
joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

 ANNEX A 
  
 Plan of Distribution 
  
 The Selling Stockholders and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of Common
Stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when
selling shares: 
  

	 	•	ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; 

  

	 	•	block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

  

	 	•	purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; 

  

	 	•	an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; 

  

	 	•	privately negotiated transactions; 

  

	 	•	settlement of short sales; 

  

	 	•	broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share; 

  

	 	•	a combination of any such methods of sale; and 

  

	 	•	any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. 

  
 The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus. 
  
 Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other
brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The
Selling Stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved. 
  
 The Selling Stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they
default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other
applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of Selling Stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as Selling Stockholders under this prospectus. 

 The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be
deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may
be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders have informed the Company that it does not have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Common
Stock. 
  
 The Company is required to pay all fees and expenses
incident to the registration of the shares. 
  
 The Company has
agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT DATED JANUARY 13, 2004

 2. Registration. 
  
 (a) On or prior to the Filing Date, the Company shall

Form S-3 (except if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, in which case the Registration shall be on another appropriate form in accordance herewith). The Registration Statement required
hereunder shall contain (except if otherwise directed by the Holders) the “Plan of Distribution” attached hereto as Annex A. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be
declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof, but in any event not later than the Effectiveness Date, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Registration Statement continuously
effective under the Securities Act until the date which is two years after the Closing Date or such later date when all Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement (a) have been sold pursuant to the Registration Statement or an
exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or (b) may be sold without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k) as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed to
the Company’s transfer agent (the “Effectiveness Period”). 

 (b) If: (i) a Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to its Filing Date;
provided, however, that if a Holder fails to provide the Company with any information that is required to be provided in the Registration Statement with respect to such Holder, then the Filing Date shall be extended until five (5)
Trading Days following the date of receipt by the Company of such required information, or (ii) the Company fails to file with the Commission a request for acceleration in accordance with Rule 461 promulgated under the Securities Act, within five
(5) Trading Days of the date that the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that a Registration Statement will not be “reviewed,” or not subject to further review, or (iii) a Registration
Statement filed or required to be filed hereunder is not declared effective by the Commission on or before the Effectiveness Date, or (iv) after a Registration Statement is first declared effective by the Commission, it ceases for any reason to
remain continuously effective as to all Registrable Securities for which it is required to be effective, or the Holders are not permitted to utilize the Prospectus therein to resell such Registrable Securities, for in any such cases ten (10) Trading
Days (which need not be consecutive days) in the aggregate during any 12-month period (any such failure or breach being referred to as an “Event,” and for purposes of clauses (i) and (iii) the date on which such Event occurs, or for
purposes of clause (ii) the date on which such five (5) Trading Day period is exceeded, or for purposes of clause (iv) the date on which such ten (10) Trading Day period is exceeded, being referred to as an “Event Date”), then in
addition to any other rights the Holders may have hereunder or under applicable law: (x) on each such Event Date the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1.5% of the aggregate
purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for any Registrable Securities then held by such Holder; and (y) on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such
date) until the applicable Event is cured, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1.5% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for
any Registrable Securities then held by such Holder. If the Company fails to pay any liquidated damages pursuant to this Section in full within seven days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 15% per annum (or
such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Holder, accruing daily from the date such liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. 
  
 3. Registration Procedures 
  
 In connection with the Company’s registration
obligations hereunder, the Company shall: 
  
 (a)
Not less than three Trading Days prior to the filing of the Registration Statement or any related Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, the Company shall, (i) furnish to the Holders copies of all such documents proposed to be filed
(including documents incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference to the extent requested by such Person) which documents will be subject to the review of such Holders, and (ii) cause its officers and directors, counsel and independent certified
public accountants to respond to such inquiries as shall be necessary, in the reasonable opinion 

 of respective counsel to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act. The
Company shall not file the Registration Statement or any such Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto to which the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities shall reasonably object in good faith. 
  
 (b) (i) Prepare and file with the Commission such
amendments, including post-effective amendments, to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective as to the applicable Registrable Securities
for the Effectiveness Period; (ii) cause the related Prospectus to be amended or supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented or amended to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; (iii) respond as promptly as reasonably possible
to any comments received from the Commission with respect to the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto; and (iv) comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the disposition
of all Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement during the applicable period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Holders thereof set forth in the Registration Statement as so amended or in such
Prospectus as so supplemented. 
  
 (c) Notify the
Holders of Registrable Securities to be sold as promptly as reasonably possible (and, in the case of (i)(A) below, not less than two Trading Days prior to such filing) and (if requested by any such Person) confirm such notice in writing promptly
following the day (i) (A) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement is proposed to be filed; (B) when the Commission notifies the Company whether there will be a “review” of
the Registration Statement and whenever the Commission comments in writing on the Registration Statement (the Company shall upon request provide true and complete copies thereof and all written responses thereto to each of the Holders); and (C) with
respect to the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective; (ii) of any request by the Commission or any other Federal or state governmental authority during the period of effectiveness of the
Registration Statement for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending
the effectiveness of the Registration Statement covering any or all of the Registrable Securities or the initiation of any Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the
qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such purpose; and (v) of the occurrence of any event or passage of time that
makes the financial statements included in the Registration Statement ineligible for inclusion therein or any statement made in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference
untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to the Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit 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, not misleading. 

 (d) Use its commercially reasonable efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if issued,
obtain the withdrawal of (i) any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, at
the earliest practicable moment. 
  
 (e) Furnish
to each Holder, without charge, at least one conformed copy of the Registration Statement and each amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference to the
extent requested by such Person, and all exhibits to the extent requested by such Person (including those previously furnished or incorporated by reference) promptly after the filing of such documents with the Commission. 
  
 (f) Promptly deliver to each Holder, without charge, as many
copies of the Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of prospectus) and each amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons may reasonably request in connection with resales by the Holder of Registrable Securities. The Company hereby
consents to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto,
except after the giving on any notice pursuant to Section 3(b). 
  
 (g) Prior to any resale of Registrable Securities by a Holder, use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders in connection with the registration or qualification
(or exemption from the Registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for the resale by the Holder under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any Holder reasonably requests in writing, to
keep each of the registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the Effectiveness Period and to do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable
Securities covered by the Registration Statement; provided, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, subject the Company to any material tax in any such
jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. 
  
 (h) If requested by the Holders, cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing
Registrable Securities to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to the Registration Statement, which certificates shall be free, to the extent permitted by the Purchase Agreement, of all restrictive legends, and to enable such Registrable Securities
to be in such denominations and registered in such names as any such Holders may request. 

 (i) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 3(b)(v), as promptly as
reasonably possible, prepare a supplement or amendment, including a post-effective amendment, to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and
file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered, neither the Registration Statement nor such Prospectus will 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, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 
  
 (j) Comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission. 
  
 The Company may require each selling Holder to furnish to the Company a certified statement as to the number of shares of
Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and, if required by the Commission, the person thereof that has voting and dispositive control over the Shares. 
  

4. Registration Expenses. All fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this Agreement by the Company shall be borne
by the Company whether or not any Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to the Registration Statement. The fees and expenses referred to in the foregoing sentence shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including,
without limitation, fees and expenses (A) with respect to filings required to be made with the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed for trading, and (B) in compliance with applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws), (ii)
printing expenses (including, without limitation, expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Securities and of printing prospectuses if the printing of prospectuses is reasonably requested by the holders of a majority of the Registrable
Securities included in the Registration Statement), (iii) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, (iv) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, (v) Securities Act liability insurance, if the Company so desires such insurance, and (vi)
fees and expenses of all other Persons retained by the Company in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, the Company shall be responsible for all of its internal expenses incurred in
connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit and
the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities on any securities exchange as required hereunder. 
  
 5. Indemnification 
  
 (a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, indemnify and hold
harmless each Holder, the officers, directors, agents and employees of each of them, each Person who controls any such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors,
agents and employees of each such controlling Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) and
expenses (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, to the extent arising 

 out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the
Registration Statement, any Prospectus or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except to the extent, but only to the extent,
that (1) such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Holder or such
Holder’s proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement, such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or in any amendment
or supplement thereto (it being understood that the Holder has approved Annex A hereto for this purpose) or (2) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type specified in Section 3(b)(ii)-(v), the use by such Holder of an outdated or
defective Prospectus after the Company has notified such Holder in writing that the Prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder of the Advice contemplated in Section 6(d). The Company shall notify the Holders promptly
of the institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding of which the Company is aware in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
  
 (b) Indemnification by Holders. Each Holder shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its
directors, officers, agents and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling
Persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, to the extent arising out of or based upon: (x) such Holder’s failure to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities
Act or (y) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or
relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (i) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained
in any information so furnished in writing by such Holder to the Company specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement or such Prospectus or (ii) to the extent that (1) such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information
regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Holder or such Holder’s proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was
reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement (it being understood that the Holder has approved Annex A hereto for this purpose), such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or in any
amendment or supplement thereto or (2) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type specified in Section 3(b)(ii)-(v), the use by such Holder of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company has notified such Holder in writing that
the Prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder of the Advice contemplated in Section 6(d). In no event shall the liability of 

 any selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by
such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. 
  
 (c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity
hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to
assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof; provided, that the failure of any Indemnified
Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which
determination is not subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have prejudiced the Indemnifying Party. 
  
 An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but
the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to
assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3) the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified
Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if
such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and the reasonable
fees and expenses of one separate counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent. No Indemnifying Party shall,
without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a 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. 
  
 All reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not
inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten Trading Days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party; provided, that the Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying
Party for that portion of such fees and expenses applicable to such actions for which such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder, determined based upon the relative faults of the parties. 

 (d) Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under Section 5(a) or 5(b) is
unavailable to an Indemnified Party (by reason of public policy or otherwise), then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such
Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of such 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 of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity
to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5(c), any reasonable attorneys’ or other
reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party in
accordance with its terms. 
  
 The parties hereto
agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the
immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5(d), no Holder shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the proceeds actually received by such Holder from the
sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, except in the
case of fraud by such Holder. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties. 
  
 6. Miscellaneous 
  
 (a) No Piggyback on Registrations. The Company may
not include securities of the Company in a Registration Statement other than the Registrable Securities, and the Company shall not after the date hereof enter into any agreement providing any such right to any of its security holders. The Company
shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain waivers of piggyback registration rights from existing security holders that have such rights and would otherwise be entitled to exercise them with respect to a Registration Statement. Except as set
forth in the SEC Reports, no Person has any right to cause the Company to effect the registration under the Securities Act of any securities of the Company. The Company shall not file any other registration statement until after the Effective Date.

 (b) Compliance. Each Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the
prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. 
  
 (c) Discontinued Disposition. Each Holder agrees by its acquisition of such Registrable Securities
that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 3(b), such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement until such
Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented Prospectus and/or amended Registration Statement or until it is advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus may be resumed, and,
in either case, has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in such Prospectus or Registration Statement. The Company may provide appropriate stop orders to enforce
the provisions of this paragraph. 
  
 (d)
Piggy-Back Registrations. If at any time during the Effectiveness Period there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a
registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then
equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with the stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall send
to each Holder a written notice of such determination and, if within ten (10) days after the date of such notice, any such Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such
Registrable Securities such Holder requests to be registered, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of registration rights. 
  
 (e) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended,
modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Company and each Holder of the then outstanding Registrable Securities. 
  
 (f) Lock-up. If the Company delivers to the holders
of Registrable Securities a certificate signed by an officer of the Company stating that the managing underwriter of a registered public offering of securities by the Company (the “Offering”) has reasonably requested that such
holders refrain from selling or otherwise transferring or disposing of any Registrable Securities or other securities of the Company then held by such holders for a specified period of time during the Offering then, beginning on the later of (i) the
10th business day after receipt of such certificate from the Company and (ii) the commencement of the Offering
(which shall be the effective date of the registration statement for such Offering), such holders shall refrain from selling or otherwise transferring or disposing of any Registrable Securities or other Company securities then 

 held by such holders for a specified period of time that is customary under the circumstances (not to
exceed 45 days) following the effective date of the registration statement for such Offering; provided, however, that no holder of Registrable Securities shall be restrained from selling or otherwise transferring or disposing of Registrable
Securities under this Section 6(f) unless the directors and officers of the Company are also so restrained. 
  
 (g) Suspension of Trading. At any time after the Registrable Securities are covered by an effective Registration Statement, the
Company may deliver to the holders of such Registrable Securities a certificate (the “Suspension Certificate”) approved by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and signed by an officer of the Company stating that the
effectiveness of and sales of Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement would: 
  
 (i) materially interfere with any transaction that would require the Company to prepare financial statements under the Securities Act that
the Company would otherwise not be required to prepare in order to comply with its obligations under the Exchange Act, or 
  
 (ii) require public disclosure of any transaction of the type discussed in Section 6(g)(i) prior to the time such disclosure might
otherwise be required. 
  
 Beginning ten (10)
business days after the receipt of a Suspension Certificate by holders of Registrable Securities, the Company may, in its discretion, require such holders of Registrable Securities to refrain from selling or otherwise transferring or disposing of
any Registrable Securities or other Company securities then held by such holders for a specified period of time that is customary under the circumstances (not to exceed 30 days). Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Company shall be permitted
to cause holders of Registrable Securities to so refrain from selling or otherwise transferring or disposing of any Registrable Securities or other securities of the Company on only one occasion during each twelve consecutive month period that the
Registration Statement remains effective. The Company may impose stop transfer instructions to enforce any required agreement of the holders under this Section 6(e). If the holders of Registrable Securities are restrained from selling or otherwise
transferring or disposing of Registrable Securities under this Section 6(g) for a period that exceeds 30 consecutive days, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1.5% of the
aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for any Registrable Securities then held by such Holder, for each 30 day period during which the holders of Registrable Securities are so restrained. 
  
 (h) Notices. Any and all notices or other
communications or deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at
the facsimile number provided for below 

 prior to 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a Trading Day, (ii) the Trading Day after the date of
transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number provided for below later than 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any date and earlier than 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on such date, (iii) the
Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given. The address for such notices and communications shall be
delivered and addressed as set forth in the Purchase Agreement 
  
 (i) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties and shall inure to the benefit of each Holder. Each
Holder may assign their respective rights hereunder in the manner and to the Persons as permitted under the Purchase Agreement. 
  
 (j) Execution and Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall
be deemed to be an original and, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid binding obligation of the party
executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature were the original thereof. 
  
 (k) Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be
governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. 
  
 (l) Cumulative Remedies. The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any
remedies provided by law. 
  
 (m)
Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set
forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or
substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and
restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable. 
  
 (n) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the
meaning hereof. 
  
 (o) Independent Nature of
Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser hereunder is several and not joint with the obligations of 

 any other Purchaser hereunder, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of
the obligations of any other Purchaser hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other agreement or document delivered at any closing, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers
as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each
Purchaser shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for
such purpose.

 ANNEX A 
  
 Plan of Distribution 
  
 The Selling Stockholders and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of Common
Stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when
selling shares: 
  

	 	•	ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; 

  

	 	•	block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

  

	 	•	purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; 

  

	 	•	an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; 

  

	 	•	privately negotiated transactions; 

  

	 	•	settlement of short sales; 

  

	 	•	broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share; 

  

	 	•	a combination of any such methods of sale; and 

  

	 	•	any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. 

  
 The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus. 
  
 Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other
brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The
Selling Stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved. 
  
 The Selling Stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they
default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other
applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of Selling Stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as Selling Stockholders under this prospectus. 

 The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be
deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may
be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders have informed the Company that it does not have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Common
Stock. 
  
 The Company is required to pay all fees and expenses
incident to the registration of the shares. 
  
 The Company has
agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
