        WHEREAS,
such Investors have required, as a condition to the purchase of the Series C-1 Preferred Stock pursuant to the Series C-1 Purchase
Agreement, that they be granted registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of their shares of Series C-1 Preferred Stock that are substantially the same as those granted under the Old Agreement to certain of the Investors with

Series C Preferred Stock.

the
Holder of the Registrable Shares issuable upon conversion thereof, and such Preferred Stock shall be deemed outstanding Registrable Shares hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this
Agreement shall require the Corporation actually to register any shares of Preferred Stock. 

        SECTION
2.    Request for Registration.    If at any time after the earlier to occur of (i) the fourth
anniversary of the date of this Agreement and (ii) the date six months after the closing of the first public offering of the Corporation's securities, the Corporation shall receive a written
request (specifying that it is being made pursuant to this Section 2) from one or more Holders that hold, in the aggregate, at least one-third of the then outstanding Registrable
Shares, that the Corporation file a registration statement under the Securities Act, or a similar document pursuant to any other statute then in effect corresponding to the Securities Act,
covering the registration of at least the lesser of (a) at least one third of the then outstanding Registrable Shares or (b) Registrable Shares the expected price to the public of which
equals or exceeds $5,000,000 (based on the market price or fair value on the date of such request), then the Corporation shall promptly notify all other Holders of such request and shall use its best
efforts to cause all Registrable Shares that Holders have requested be registered to be registered under the Securities Act on Form S-1 or any other available form the
use of which is approved by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares that are to be included in such registration. 

        Notwithstanding
the foregoing, (i) the Corporation shall not be obligated to effect a registration pursuant to this Section 2 during the period starting with the date sixty
(60) days prior to the Corporation's estimated date of filing of, and ending on a date six (6) months following the effective date of, a registration statement pertaining to an
underwritten public offering of securities for the account of the Corporation, provided that the Corporation is actively employing in good faith its best efforts to cause such registration statement
to become effective and that the Corporation's estimate of the date of filing such registration statement is made in good faith; (ii) the Corporation shall not be obligated to effect a
registration pursuant to this Section 2 within six (6) months after the effective date of a prior registration under this Section 2; and (iii) if the Corporation shall
furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the President of the Corporation stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors it would be seriously detrimental to the Corporation
or its stockholders for a registration statement to be filed in the near future, then the Corporation's obligation to use its best efforts to file a registration statement shall be deferred for
a period not to exceed ninety (90) days; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be
permitted to so defer its obligation more than once in any 12-month period. 

        The
Corporation shall not be obligated to effect more than two registrations on behalf of the Holders pursuant to this Section 2. 

        SECTION
3.    Corporation Registration.    If at any time the Corporation proposes to register any of its Common Stock
under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such securities for its own account or for the accounts of stockholders other than Holders, solely for cash on a form that would also
permit the registration of the Registrable Shares, the Corporation shall, each such time, promptly give each Holder written notice of such determination. Upon the written request of any Holder given
within thirty (30) days after giving of any such notice by the Corporation, the Corporation shall, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8, use its best efforts to cause to be
registered under the Securities Act all of the Registrable Shares that each such Holder has requested be registered; provided, that the Corporation
shall have the right to postpone or withdraw any registration statement relating to an offering in which the Holders are eligible to participate under this Section 3 without any liability or
obligation to the Holders under this Section 3. 

3

 

        SECTION
4.    Obligations of the Corporation.    Whenever required under Section 2, Section 3 or
Section 11 to use its best efforts to effect the registration of any Registrable Shares, the Corporation shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible: 

        (a)   Prepare
and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Shares and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become
effective, and, upon the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for a period of up to one hundred eighty
(180) days or, if earlier, until the distribution contemplated in the registration statement has been completed; provided,  however, that (i) such
180-day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period the Holder refrains from selling any
securities included in such registration at the request of an underwriter of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Corporation; and (ii) in the case of any registration of Registrable
Shares on Form S-3 which are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, subject to compliance with applicable SEC rules, such 180-day period shall be
extended for up to ninety (90) days, if necessary, to keep the registration statement effective until all such Registrable Shares are sold. 

        (b)   Prepare
and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as
may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement. 

        (c)   Furnish
to the selling Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and
such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Shares owned by them. 

        (d)   Use
its best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as
shall be reasonably appropriate for the distribution of the securities covered by the registration statement, provided that the Corporation shall not be required in connection therewith or as a
condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, and further provided that (anything in this Agreement to the
contrary notwithstanding with respect to the bearing of expenses) if any jurisdiction in which the securities shall be qualified shall require that expenses incurred in connection with the
qualification of the securities in that jurisdiction be borne by selling stockholders, then such expenses shall be payable by selling stockholders pro rata, to the extent required by such
jurisdiction. 

        (e)   Provide
a transfer agent for the Common Stock no later than the effective date of the first registration of any Registrable Shares. 

        (f)    Otherwise
use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. 

        (g)   Use
its best efforts either (i) to cause all such Registrable Shares to be listed on a national securities exchange (if such securities are not already so listed)
and on each additional national securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Corporation are then listed, if the listing of such securities is then permitted under the rules of such
exchange, or (ii) to secure designation of all such Registrable Shares as a Nasdaq "national market system security" within the meaning of Rule 11Aa2-1 of the SEC or, failing
that, to secure listing on Nasdaq for such Registrable Shares and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to arrange for at least two (2) market makers to register as such with
respect to Registrable Shares with the National Association of Securities Dealers. 

4

 

        (h)   Enter
into such customary agreements (including an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions as the selling Holders of Registrable Shares
shall reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Shares. 

        (i)    Make
available for inspection by any selling Holder of Registrable Shares, by any underwriter participating in any disposition to be effected pursuant to such
registration statement and by any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such selling Holder or any such underwriter, all pertinent financial and other records and pertinent corporate
documents and properties of the Corporation, and cause all of the Corporation's officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such selling Holder,
underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement. 

        (j)    Use
every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement or of any order preventing or
suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus and, if any such order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest reasonable time. 

        (k)   Make
such representations and warranties to the selling Holders of Registrable Shares and the underwriters as are customarily made by issuers to selling stockholders and
underwriters, as the case may be, in primary underwritten public offerings. 

        SECTION
5.    Furnish Information.    It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Corporation to take
any action pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the registration of any Holder's Registrable Shares that such Holder shall take such actions and furnish to the Corporation such information
regarding itself, the Registrable Shares held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities, as the Corporation shall reasonably request and as shall be required in connection with
any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this agreement, including, without limitation (i) in connection with an underwritten offering, enter into an appropriate
underwriting agreement containing terms and provisions then customary in agreements of that nature, (ii) enter into such custody agreements, powers of attorney and related documents at such
time and on such terms
and conditions as may then be customarily required in connection with such offering and (iii) distribute the Registrable Shares only in accordance with and in the manner of the distribution
contemplated by the applicable registration statement and prospectus. In addition, the Holders shall promptly notify the Corporation of any request by the Commission or any state securities commission
or agency for additional information or for such registration statement or prospectus to be amended or supplemented. 

        SECTION
6.    Expenses of Demand Registration.    All expenses incurred in connection with any registration pursuant
to Section 2 or Section 11 (excluding underwriters' discounts and commissions), including, without limitation, all registration and qualification fees, printers' and accounting fees,
fees and disbursements of counsel for the Corporation, and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one special counsel for the selling Holders collectively, shall be borne by the Corporation whether
or not the registration statement to which such registration expenses relate becomes effective; provided,  however, that the Corporation shall not be
required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2 if the
registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares to be registered (in which case all participating Holders shall bear such expenses
pro rata based upon the number of Registrable Shares that were to be included in the withdrawn registration), unless the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares agree to forfeit their right to
one demand registration pursuant to Section 2; provided further, however, that if at the time of such withdrawal, the Holders have learned of a
material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of the Corporation from that known to the Holders at the time of their request and have withdrawn the request with reasonable
promptness after 

5

 

learning
of such information, then the Holders shall not be required to pay any of such expenses and shall retain their rights pursuant to Section 2. 

        SECTION
7.    Corporation Registration Expenses.    All expenses (excluding underwriters' discounts and commissions)
incurred in connection with any registration pursuant to Section 3, including, without limitation, any additional registration and qualification fees and any additional fees and disbursements
of counsel to the Corporation that result from the inclusion of securities held by the selling Holders in such registration and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one special counsel for the
selling Holders collectively, shall be borne by the Corporation whether or not the registration statement to which such registration expenses relate becomes effective. 

        SECTION
8.    Underwriting Requirements.    

        (a)   In
connection with any offering under Section 3 involving an underwriting of shares being issued by the Corporation, the Corporation shall not be required to
include any Holder's Registrable Shares in such underwriting unless such Holder accepts the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Corporation and the underwriters selected by it, and
then only in such quantity as will not, in the reasonable opinion of the underwriters, jeopardize the success of the offering by the Corporation. If the total amount of securities that all Holders
request to be included in an underwritten offering under
Section 3 exceeds the amount of securities that the underwriters reasonably believe compatible with the success of the offering, the Corporation may exclude some or all of the Registrable
Shares from such registration and underwriting, provided, however, that the number of Registrable Shares
of the Holders to be included in such underwriting and registration shall not be reduced unless all other securities (excluding those of the Corporation) are first entirely excluded from the
underwriting and registration. If there is a reduction of the number of Registrable Shares pursuant to this Section 8(a), such reduction shall be made pro rata based upon the aggregate number
of Registrable Shares required to be registered by such Holders. 

        (b)   With
respect to any underwriting of shares to be registered under Section 2 or Section 11, the selling Holders who initiate the request for registration
shall have the right to designate the managing underwriter or underwriters, subject to the consent of the Corporation. In connection with any underwritings of shares to be registered under
Section 3, the Corporation shall have the right to designate the managing underwriter or underwriters. In any such case, such consent of the Corporation or the Holders shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. 

        SECTION
9.    Delay of Registration.    No Holder shall have any right to take any action to restrain, enjoin, or
otherwise delay any registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Agreement. 

        SECTION
10.    Indemnification.    In the event any Registrable Shares are included in a registration statement under
this Agreement: 

        (a)   To
the extent permitted by law, the Corporation will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder requesting or joining in a registration, the partners, members, officers,
directors and stockholders of such Holder, legal counsel and accountants for such Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such
Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the 1934 Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they may become subject under the
Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based on (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of
any material fact contained in such registration statement, including, without limitation, any prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto,
(ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to 

6

 

make
the statements therein not misleading or (iii) any violation by the Corporation of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act applicable to the Corporation and relating to
action or inaction required of the Corporation in connection with any such registration; and will promptly reimburse each such Holder, underwriter, controlling person or other aforementioned person
for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action,  provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 10(a) shall not apply
to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Corporation (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) nor shall the Corporation be liable to any such Holder, underwriter, controlling person or other aforementioned person in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability
or action to the extent that it (i) arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in connection with such registration
statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, or amendments or supplements thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Corporation expressly for use in
connection with such registration by or on behalf of such Holder, underwriter, controlling person or other aforementioned person, (ii) is caused by the failure of such Holder to deliver a copy
of the final prospectus relating to such Registrable Shares, as then amended or supplemented, in connection with a purchase, if the Corporation had previously furnished copies thereof to such Holder
or (iii) is caused by such Holder's disposition of Registrable Shares during any period during which such Holder is obligated to discontinue any disposition of Registrable Shares under
Section 18. 

        (b)   To
the extent permitted by law, each Holder requesting or joining in a registration, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Corporation, each of
its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each person, if any, who controls the Corporation within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any underwriter (within
the meaning of the Securities Act) for the Corporation against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Corporation or any such director, officer, controlling person or underwriter may
become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in such registration statement, including any prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements
thereto or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the
extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information relating to
and furnished to the Corporation by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and will promptly reimburse the Corporation or any such director,
officer, controlling person or underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action;  provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 10(b) shall not apply
to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed) and provided further that no Holder shall have any liability under this Section 10(b) in excess of the net proceeds actually received by such Holder in the relevant public offering. 

7

  

        (c)   Promptly
after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 10 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in
respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 10, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have
the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually
satisfactory to the parties. The failure to notify an indemnifying party promptly of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to his ability to defend such action, shall relieve such
indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 10 to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by a delay of such notification, but the omission so to
notify the indemnifying party will not relieve him of any liability that he may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 10. 

        (d)   If
the indemnification provided for in this Section 10 is required by its terms but is for any reason held to be unavailable to or otherwise insufficient to hold
harmless an indemnified party under Section 10(a) or Section 10(b) in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein, then each applicable
indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Corporation and the selling Holders in connection with the statements or omissions described in such Section 10(a) or Section 10(b)
which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Corporation and the selling Holders shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the Corporation or the selling Holders and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid
or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 10,
any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim. The provisions set forth in Section 10(c) with respect
to notice of commencement of any action shall apply if a claim for contribution is to be made under this Section 10(d); provided,  however, that no
additional notice shall be required with respect to any action for which notice has been given under subsection Section 10(c)
for purposes of indemnification. The Corporation and the selling Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 10 were determined solely by pro
rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
Section 10(d), no Holder shall be required to contribute an amount in excess of the net proceeds actually received by such Holder in the relevant public offering. No person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 

        SECTION
11.    Registrations on Form S-3.    

        (a)   If
(i) the Corporation shall receive a written request (specifying that it is being made pursuant to this Section 11) from one or more Holders that the
Corporation file a registration statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form to Form S-3 regardless of its designation) for a public offering of
Registrable Shares the reasonably anticipated aggregate price to the public of which would equal or exceed $1,000,000, and (ii) the Corporation is a registrant entitled to use
Form S-3 (or any successor form to Form S-3) to register such shares, then the Corporation shall promptly notify all other Holders of such request and shall use
its best efforts to cause all 

8

 

Registrable
Shares that Holders have requested be registered to be registered on Form S-3 (or any successor form to Form S-3). 

        (b)   Notwithstanding
the foregoing, (i) the Corporation shall not be obligated to effect a registration pursuant to this Section 11 during the period starting
with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Corporation's estimated date of filing of, and ending on a date six (6) months following the effective date of, a registration statement
pertaining to an underwritten public offering of securities for the account of the Corporation, provided that the Corporation is actively employing in good faith its best efforts to cause such
registration statement to become effective and that the Corporation's estimate of the date of filing such registration statement is made in good faith; (ii) the Corporation shall not be
obligated to effect a registration pursuant to this Section 11 within six (6) months after the effective date of a prior registration under this Section 11; and (iii) if
the Corporation shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the President of the Corporation stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors it would be seriously
detrimental to the Corporation or its stockholders for a registration statement to be filed in the near future, then the Corporation's obligation to use its best efforts to file a registration
statement shall be deferred for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days; provided, however, that
the Corporation shall not be permitted to so defer its obligation more than once in any 12-month period. 

        (c)   The
Holders' rights to registration under this Section 11 are in addition to, and not in lieu of, their rights to registration under Section 2 and
Section 3 of this Agreement. 

        SECTION
12.    Limitation on Corporation Offerings.    The Corporation shall not register securities for sale for its
own account (or, except as permitted by Section 14, any securities other than Registrable Shares) in any registration requested pursuant to Section 2 or Section 11 unless
permitted to do so by the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares as to which registration has been requested unless the inclusion of securities for the account of the
Corporation would not require a reduction in the number of Registrable Shares to be included in such registration, as determined by the managing underwriter. 

        SECTION
13.    Reports Under Securities Exchange Act of 1934.    With a view to making available to the Holders the
benefits of Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time
permit a Holder to sell securities of the Corporation to the public without registration, the Corporation agrees to use its best efforts to: 

        (a)   make
and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times subsequent to ninety (90) days after the
effective date of the first registration statement covering an underwritten public offering filed by the Corporation; 

        (b)   file
with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents, if any, required of the Corporation under the Securities Act and the 1934 Act; and 

        (c)   furnish
to any Holder forthwith upon request a written statement by the Corporation that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 (at any time
after ninety (90) days after the effective date of said first registration statement filed by the Corporation), and of the Securities Act and the 1934 Act (at any time after it has become
subject to such reporting requirements), a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Corporation, and such other reports and documents so filed by the Corporation as may be reasonably
requested in availing any such holder to take advantage of any rule or regulation of the SEC permitting the selling of any such securities without registration. 

        SECTION
14.    Limitations in Connection with Future Grants of Registration Rights.    Without the prior written
consent of the Holders of at least a majority in voting power of then outstanding Registrable Shares held by Investors, the Corporation shall not grant rights to any person or entity: 

9

 

(a) to
cause the Corporation to register any of such person's or entity's securities of the Corporation; (b) to include such person's or entity's securities of the Corporation in any
registration statement filed under Section 2 or Section 11 hereof; (c) to include such person's or entity's securities of the Corporation in any registration statement described
in Section 3 hereof, unless, in the case of each of (a), (b) and (c), under the terms of such agreement, such person or entity may include such securities in any such registration only
to the extent that the inclusion of his or its securities will not reduce the amount of Registrable Shares of the Holders which is included in such registration; or (d) otherwise to cause the
registration of such person's or entity's securities of the Corporation in any manner which are superior to or pari passu with the registration rights
granted herein to the Holders. 

        SECTION
15.    Transfer of Registration Rights.    The registration rights and obligations of any Holder (and of any
transferee of any Holder, or its transferees, of the rights under this Agreement in accordance with this Section 15) under this Agreement with respect to any Registrable Shares may be
transferred to any transferee who acquires (otherwise than in a registered public offering) at least five percent (5%) of the Registrable Shares then held by such Holder;  provided, however, that the transfer of registration rights to any Affiliate of any Holder will not be
subject to such requirement as to minimum shareholding; provided, further, that (a) such rights
and obligations may not be transferred to any entity
whose primary line of business is directly competitive with the primary line of business of the Corporation, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors (b) the Corporation shall be
given written notice by the Holder at the time of any permitted transfer stating the name and address of the transferee and identifying the securities with respect to which the rights and obligations
under this Agreement are being assigned and (c) the transferee shall execute an agreement to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 15, an "Affiliate" of
any Holder (or any transferee of any Holder) means any general or limited partner of any Holder (or transferee) that is a partnership, any member of any Holder that is a limited liability company or
any person or entity that, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, such Holder or transferee. 

        SECTION
16.    Mergers, Etc.    The Corporation shall not, directly or indirectly, enter into any merger,
consolidation or reorganization in which the Corporation shall not be the surviving corporation unless the proposed surviving corporation shall, prior to such merger, consolidation or reorganization,
agree in writing to assume the obligations of the Corporation under this Agreement, and for that purpose references hereunder to "Registrable Shares" shall be deemed to be references to the securities
which the Holders would be entitled to receive in exchange for Registrable Shares under any such merger, consolidation or reorganization; provided,  however,
 that the provisions of this Agreement shall not apply in the event of any merger, consolidation or reorganization in which the Corporation is
not the surviving corporation if the holders of Registrable Shares are entitled to receive in exchange therefor (i) cash, or (ii) securities of the acquiring corporation which may be
immediately sold to the public without registration under the Securities Act. 

        SECTION
17.    Stand-Off Agreement.    Each Holder, if requested by the Corporation and the managing
underwriter of an offering by the Corporation of Common Stock pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act, shall agree, by executing and delivering such form of agreement as the
Corporation and such underwriter shall reasonably request, not to sell publicly or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Registrable Shares or other securities of the Corporation held by such Holder
prior to the effective date of such registration statement for a specified period of time immediately following the effective date of such registration statement, such period of time not to exceed one
hundred eighty (180) days; provided that: 

        (a)   such
one-hundred eighty (180) day period may be extended on one occasion by the managing underwriter to the extent necessary to prevent the managing
underwriter(s) from violating Section 2711(f)(4) of the rules of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. 

10

 

(e.g.,
as the result of the publication or other distribution of a research report or public appearance concerning the Company); 

        (b)   such
agreement shall apply only to the initial public offering of the Corporation's securities; 

        (c)   such
agreement shall not apply to resales of the Corporation's securities purchased by a Holder in a public market, and 

        (d)   all
persons who hold shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, which in aggregate represent one
percent (1%) or more of the shares of Common Stock then outstanding (which 1% shall include all securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, on an as
converted, exchanged or exercised basis) (any such person, a "1% Stockholder"), and all officers and directors of the Corporation, enter into similar agreements. 

        Any
discretionary waiver or termination of the restrictions of such agreements (including this Agreement) by the Corporation or the managing underwriter (other than discretionary waivers
or releases up to an amount of $50,000 due to financial hardship) shall apply to all persons subject to such agreements on a pro rata basis, based upon the number of shares held by such persons. 

        SECTION
18.    Future Events.    The Corporation will notify each Holder participating in a registration of the
occurrence of any of the following events of which the Corporation is actually aware, and when so notified, each Holder will immediately discontinue any disposition of Registrable Shares until
notified by the Corporation that such event is no longer applicable: 

        (a)   the
issuance by the Commission or any state securities commission or agency of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement or the
initiation of any proceedings for that purpose (in which case the Corporation will make reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any such order or the cessation of any such proceedings); or 

        (b)   the
existence of any fact which makes untrue any material statement made in the registration statement or prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or
which requires the making of any changes in the registration statement or prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference in order to make the statements therein not misleading (in which
case the Corporation will make reasonable efforts to amend the applicable document to correct the deficiency). 

        SECTION
19.    Notices.    All notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder ("Notices") to any party
shall be contained in a written instrument addressed to such party at the address set forth below or such other address as may hereafter be designated in writing by the addressee to the addressor

Exhibit 10.2(c)    
    

STOCK RESTRICTION AGREEMENT  

        This Stock Restriction Agreement is entered into as of [            ], 200 , by
 SIRTRIS PHARMACEUTICALS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and  [            ]
(the "Purchaser"). 

RECITALS  

        WHEREAS, on the date hereof the Company will issue to the Purchaser and the Purchaser will purchase from the Company [X] shares (the
"Purchased Shares") of the Company's Common Stock for $0.001 per share (the "Purchase Price"); and 

        WHEREAS,
in consideration for the issuance of the Purchased Shares, the Purchaser has agreed to the imposition of contractual restrictions with respect to the Purchased Shares, and the
Purchaser and the Company have agreed that this Agreement shall govern the right of the Company to repurchase the Purchased Shares in certain circumstances; and 

        WHEREAS,
capitalized terms not defined above are defined in Section 11 of this Agreement. 

        NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants set forth herein, the parties hereby agree as follows: 

SECTION 1. RIGHT OF REPURCHASE.  

        (a)    Scope of Repurchase Right.    Until they vest in accordance with Subsection
(b) below, the Purchased Shares shall be Restricted Shares and shall be subject to the Company's Right of Repurchase. The Company, however, may decline to exercise its Right of Repurchase or
may exercise its Right of Repurchase only with respect to a portion of the Restricted Shares. The Company may exercise its Right of Repurchase only during the Repurchase Period following the
termination of the Purchaser's Service. If the Right of Repurchase is exercised, the Company shall pay the Purchaser an amount equal to the Purchase Price for each of the Restricted Shares being
repurchased. 

        (b)    Lapse of Repurchase Right.    

        (i)    The
Right of Repurchase shall lapse with respect to 25% of the Purchased Shares on the date hereof. The Right of Repurchase shall lapse with respect to an additional
1.5625% of the Purchased Shares on each of the next 48 monthly anniversaries thereafter provided that the Purchaser has performed continuous Service from the date hereof through such date. 

        (ii)   If
the Company is subject to a Change of Control before the Purchaser's Service terminates, then the Right of Repurchase shall lapse with respect to all of the then
Restricted Shares. 

        (iii)  If
the Company terminates the Purchaser's Service without Cause, then the Right of Repurchase shall lapse with respect to all of the then Restricted Shares. 

        (iv)  If
the Purchaser's Service terminates as a result of the death or disability of the Purchaser, then the Right of Repurchase shall lapse with respect to 14.0625% of the
then Restricted Shares, or if less than 14.0625% of the Purchased Shares are then Restricted Shares, all of the then Restricted Shares. 

        (c)    Escrow.    Upon execution of this Agreement, the certificate(s) for Restricted Shares
shall be deposited in escrow with the Company to be held in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Any additional or exchanged securities or other property described in Subsection
(f) below shall immediately be delivered to the Company to be held in escrow. All ordinary cash dividends on Restricted Shares (or on other securities held in escrow) shall be paid directly to
the Purchaser and shall not be held in escrow. Restricted Shares, together with any other assets held in escrow under this Agreement, shall be (i) surrendered to the Company for repurchase upon
exercise of the Right of Repurchase or (ii) released to the Purchaser upon his or her request to the extent that the Shares have 

 

ceased
to be Restricted Shares (but not more frequently than once every six months). In any event, all Purchased Shares that have ceased to be Restricted Shares, together with any other vested assets
held in escrow under this Agreement, shall be released within 180 days after the the termination or lapse of the Purchaser's Service. 

        (d)    Exercise of Repurchase Right.    The Repurchase Right shall be exercised by written
noticed signed by an officer of the Company and delivered to the Purchaser in accordance with the notice provisions to Section 8 hereof during the Repurchase Period. Such notice shall fix a
time and date for the closing of the repurchase which shall be no more than thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice. The closing shall be held at the principal office of the Company
unless otherwise agreed to by the Company and the Purchaser. At the closing, the Company shall pay to the holder of the Restricted Shares the purchase price determined under Subsection
(a) above for the Restricted Shares being repurchased. Payment shall be made in cash or cash equivalents and/or by canceling indebtedness to the Company incurred by the Purchaser in the
purchase of the Restricted Shares. The certificate(s) representing the Restricted Shares being repurchased shall be delivered to the Company and/or released from escrow properly endorsed for transfer. 

        (e)    Termination of Rights as Stockholder.    If the Right of Repurchase is exercised in
accordance with this Section 1 and the Company makes available the consideration for the Restricted Shares being repurchased, then the person from whom the Restricted Shares are repurchased
shall no longer have any rights as a holder of the Restricted Shares (other than the right to receive payment of such consideration). Such Restricted Shares shall be deemed to have been repurchased
pursuant to this Section 1, whether or not the certificate(s) for such Restricted Shares have been delivered to the Company or the consideration for such Restricted Shares has been accepted. 

        (f)    Additional or Exchanged Securities and Property.    Subject to the provisions of 1(b),
in the event of a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity, any other corporate reorganization, a stock split, the declaration of a stock dividend, the declaration of an
extraordinary dividend payable in a form other than stock, a spin-off, an adjustment in conversion ratio, a recapitalization or a similar transaction affecting the Company's outstanding
securities, any
securities or other property (including cash or cash equivalents) that are by reason of such transaction exchanged for, or distributed with respect to, any Restricted Shares shall immediately be
subject to the Right of Repurchase. Appropriate adjustments to reflect the exchange or distribution of such securities or property shall be made to the number and/or class of the Restricted Shares.
Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the price per share to be paid upon the exercise of the Right of Repurchase, provided that the aggregate purchase price payable for the Restricted Shares
shall remain the same. In the event of a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity or any other corporate reorganization, the Right of Repurchase may be exercised by the
Company's successor. 

        (g)    Transfer of Restricted Shares.    The Purchaser shall not transfer, assign, encumber or
otherwise dispose of any Restricted Shares without the Company's written consent, except as provided in the following sentence. The Purchaser may transfer Restricted Shares to one or more members of
the Purchaser's Immediate Family or to a trust established by the Purchaser for the benefit of the Purchaser and/or one or more members of the Purchaser's Immediate Family, provided in either case
that the Transferee agrees in writing on a form prescribed by the Company to be bound by all provisions of this Agreement. If the Purchaser transfers any Restricted Shares, then this Agreement shall
apply to the Transferee to the same extent as to the Purchaser. 

        (h)    Assignment of Repurchase Right.    The Board of Directors may freely assign the
Company's Right of Repurchase, in whole or in part. Any person who accepts an assignment of the Right of Repurchase from the Company shall assume all of the Company's rights and obligations under this
Section 1. 

2

 

SECTION 2. OTHER RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER.  

        (a)    Purchaser Representations.    Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company
as follows: 

        (i)    The
Purchaser acquired and holds the Purchased Shares for investment for his or her account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any
"distribution" thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act. 

        (ii)   The
Purchaser understands that the Purchased Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom and that the Purchased
Shares must be held indefinitely, unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or the Purchaser obtains
an opinion of counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company and its counsel, that such registration is not required. The Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the Company is
under no obligation to register the Purchased Shares. 

        (iii)  The
Purchaser is aware of the adoption of Rule 144 by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act, which permits limited public resales of
securities acquired in a non-public offering, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including (without limitation) the availability of certain current public information about
the issuer, the resale occurring only after the holding period required by Rule 144 has been satisfied, the sale occurring through an unsolicited "broker's transaction," and the amount of
securities being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations. The Purchaser acknowledges and understands that the conditions for resale set forth in Rule 144 have not
been satisfied and that the Company has no plans to satisfy these conditions in the foreseeable future. 

        (iv)  The
Purchaser will not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Purchased Shares in violation of the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the rules
promulgated thereunder, including Rule 144 under the Securities Act. The Purchaser agrees that he or she will not dispose of the Purchased Shares unless and until he or she has complied with
all requirements of this Agreement applicable to the disposition of Purchased Shares and he or she has provided the Company with written assurances, in substance and form satisfactory to the Company,
that (A) the proposed disposition does not require registration of the Purchased Shares under the Securities Act or all appropriate action necessary for compliance with the registration
requirements of the Securities Act or with any exemption from registration available under the Securities Act (including Rule 144) has been taken and (B) the proposed disposition will
not result in the contravention of any transfer restrictions applicable to the Purchased Shares under the securities laws or regulations of any State. 

        (v)   The
Purchaser was furnished with, and had access to, such information as he or she considered necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to invest in the Purchased
Shares, and the Purchaser had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the issuance of the Purchased Shares. 

        (vi)  The
Purchaser is aware that his or her investment in the Company is a speculative investment that has limited liquidity and is subject to the risk of complete loss. The
Purchaser is able, without impairing his or her financial condition, to hold the Purchased Shares for an indefinite period and to suffer a complete loss of his or her investment in the Purchased
Shares. 

        (b)    Securities Law Restrictions.    Regardless of whether the Shares under this Agreement
have been registered under the Securities Act or have been registered or qualified under the securities laws of any state, the Company at its discretion may impose restrictions upon the sale, pledge
or other transfer of the Purchased Shares (including the placement of appropriate legends on stock certificates or the imposition of stop-transfer instructions) if, in the judgment of the
Company, such restrictions are 

3

 

necessary
or desirable in order to achieve compliance with the Securities Act, the securities laws of any state or any other law. 

        (c)    Market Stand-Off.    In connection with any underwritten public offering by
the Company of its equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act, including the Company's initial public offering, the Purchaser shall not directly
or indirectly sell, make any short sale of, loan, hypothecate, pledge, offer, grant or sell any option or other contract for the purchase of, purchase any option or other contract for the sale of, or
otherwise dispose of or transfer, or agree to engage in any of the foregoing transactions with respect to, any Purchased Shares without the prior written consent of the Company or its underwriters.
Such restriction (the "Market Stand-Off") shall be in effect for such period of time following the date of the final prospectus for the offering as may be requested by the Company or such
underwriters. In no event, however, shall such period exceed 180 days. The Market Stand-Off shall in any event terminate two years after the date of the Company's initial public
offering. In the event of the declaration of a stock dividend, a spin-off, a stock split, an adjustment in conversion ratio, a recapitalization or a similar transaction affecting the
Company's outstanding securities without receipt of consideration, any new, substituted or additional securities which are by reason of such transaction distributed with respect to any Shares subject
to the Market Stand-Off, or into which such Shares thereby become convertible, shall immediately be subject to the Market Stand-Off. In order to enforce the Market
Stand-Off, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Purchased Shares until the end of the applicable stand-off period. The Company's
underwriters shall be beneficiaries of the agreement set forth in this Subsection (c). This Subsection (c) shall not apply to Shares registered in the public offering under the Securities Act,
and the Purchaser shall be subject to this Subsection (c) only if the directors and officers of the Company are subject to similar arrangements. 

        (d)    Rights of the Company.    The Company shall not be required to (i) transfer on
its books any Purchased Shares that have been sold or transferred in contravention of this Agreement or (ii) treat as the owner of Purchased Shares, or otherwise to accord voting, dividend or
liquidation rights to, any transferee to whom Purchased Shares have been transferred in contravention of this Agreement. 

SECTION 3. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.  

        Except as otherwise expressly provided to the contrary, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and its
successors and assigns and be binding upon the Purchaser and the Purchaser's legal representatives, heirs, legatees, distributees, assigns and transferees by operation of law, whether or not any such
person has become a party to this Agreement or has agreed in writing to join herein and to be bound by the terms, conditions and restrictions hereof. 

SECTION 4. NO RETENTION RIGHTS.  

        Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Purchaser any right to continue in Service for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise
restrict in any way the rights of the Company (or any Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining the Purchaser) or of the Purchaser, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate
his or her Service at any time and for any reason, with or without cause. 

SECTION 5. TAX ELECTION.  

        The imposition of the Right of Repurchase under this Agreement may result in adverse tax consequences that may be avoided or mitigated by filing an election under
Code Section 83(b). Such election may be filed only within 30 days after the date of this Agreement. The form for making the Code Section 83(b) election is attached to this
Agreement as Exhibit I. The Purchaser should consult  

4

 

 with his or her tax advisor to determine the tax consequences of executing this Agreement and the advantages and disadvantages of filing the Code Section 83(b) election. The Purchaser
acknowledges that it is his or her sole responsibility, and not the Company's, to file a timely election under Code Section 83(b), even if the Purchaser requests the Company or its
representatives to make this filing on his or her behalf.

SECTION 6. LEGEND.  

        All certificates evidencing Purchased Shares shall bear the following legends (in addition to any legend(s) otherwise required by any other agreement or
applicable law): 

"THE
