owned subsidiary of SEACOR Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SEACOR”). 
 WHEREAS, the Executive
has served as the President and Chief Executive Officer and as director of the Company, and continues to serve as an employee of the Company; 
 WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive are not parties to an employment agreement or other contractual understanding regarding the employment of the Executive, and the employment of the Executive
is an “employment at will” and may be terminated at any time by either party for any reason; 
 WHEREAS, the
parties have determined by mutual agreement that the employment of Executive shall be terminated, and that the Executive shall continue in a consulting capacity with the Company, on the terms set forth in this Agreement; and 

WHEREAS, the parties agree to resolve any and all issues or disputes which may presently exist, or which may later arise out of
the circumstances surrounding the Executive’s employment with or termination from the Company. 
 NOW THEREFORE, in
consideration of the premises and the covenants herein, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Executive and the Company agree as follows: 
 1. Termination of Employment 
 The Executive’s employment with the
Company shall cease effective as of December 31, 2011, unless such employment terminates prior to such date as a result of death or Disability as defined in Section 3(g) below (the “Termination Date”). Effective as of the
Termination Date, the Executive shall have resigned from all his positions with the Company, SEACOR and their subsidiaries and affiliates (each entity individually, and collectively, the “Company Group”). From and after the
Termination Date, the Executive shall not hold any office or title with the Company Group, except as a consultant pursuant to Section 3 hereof. 
 2. Severance Payments and Benefits 
 (a) Severance Payment. Subject
to the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall pay to the Executive a severance amount equal to $1,500,000 (the “Severance Payment”). The Severance Payment shall be paid to the Executive in a single lump sum cash payment, less
applicable withholdings and deductions as provided herein, on January 3, 2012, provided that the Executive remains in compliance with the terms of this Agreement. 

 (b) Bonus Payments. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall pay the
Executive an annual bonus for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2011, in an amount equal to $350,000 (the “Bonus Payment”). The Bonus Payment shall be paid to the Executive in a lump sum cash payment, less
applicable withholdings and deductions as provided herein, at the same time during the 2012 calendar year as bonus payments are made generally to other senior management employees of the Company (the “Bonus Payment Date”), provided that
the Executive remains in compliance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, the Executive shall be entitled to the unpaid portion of his annual bonuses determined for the 2009 and 2010 fiscal years, which shall be paid (together
with accrued interest in accordance with the Company’s practice) by the Company as a lump sum cash payment on the Bonus Payment Date. 
 (c) Continued Health Benefits. For the eighteen (18) month period following the Termination Date, the Executive and his eligible dependents shall be entitled to continue to participate in the
Company’s health and dental insurance plans (collectively, “Health Plans”), at the Company’s sole expense/at the same contribution rates as active employees. The coverage will be arranged through COBRA continuation with
the Company’s third-party administrator, and will be deemed to satisfy the Company’ obligation to provide COBRA continuation coverage. The Executive shall be responsible for completing and submitting all applicable enrollment documents as
required by the administrator. The Executive’s participation in the Health Plans shall otherwise be subject to the terms and conditions of the Health Plans as applicable to employees generally from time to time, including the right of the
Company to amend or terminate the Health Plans. 
 (d) Equity Awards. The Executive has previously been granted awards of
restricted stock (the “Restricted Stock”) and stock options (the “Stock Options”) with respect to the common stock of SEACOR, pursuant to the terms of the SEACOR 2003 Stock Incentive Plan and the SEACOR 2007 Stock
Incentive Plan. Exhibit B hereto sets forth a list of the Executive’s Restricted Stock and Stock Options outstanding as of the date hereof. Effective upon the Release Effective Date (as defined in Section 4 hereof), (i) all shares of
Restricted Stock that have not previously become vested shall become vested and non-forfeitable, in accordance with the terms of the applicable award agreement upon a “termination without Cause,” and (ii) all shares subject to Stock
Options that have not previously become vested shall become vested and exercisable, in accordance with the terms of the applicable award agreement upon a “termination without Cause,” and shall remain exercisable for a period of three years
following the Release Effective Date (notwithstanding the 90-day exercise period set forth in the award agreements). Except to the extent modified hereby, the Restricted Stock and the Stock Options shall continue to be subject to the terms and
conditions as provided by the respective award agreements for each such award. 
 (e) No Additional Benefits. The
Executive acknowledges and agrees that, except as provided in this Section 2, the Executive’s participation as an active employee under any benefit plan, program, policy or arrangement sponsored or maintained by the Company Group shall
cease and be terminated as of the Termination Date. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Executive’s eligibility for and active participation in any of the tax-qualified plans maintained by the Company Group will end on the
Termination Date and the Executive will earn 

  
 2 

 
no additional benefits under those plans after that date. The Executive shall be treated as a terminated employee for purposes of all such benefit plans and programs effective as of the
Termination Date, and shall receive all payments and benefits due to him under such plans and programs in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof. 
 (f) Acknowledgement. The Executive understands and agrees that absent this Agreement, he would not otherwise be entitled to any payments and benefits as set forth in this Section 2 and
his right to receive the payments and benefits set forth herein shall be an unsecured contractual obligation of the Company and he shall have no greater rights than any other employee, consultant or general unsecured creditor of the Company.

 (g) Tax Withholding. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, all payments made by the Company to
the Executive pursuant to this Section 2 shall be reduced by applicable tax withholdings and any other deductions required by law. 

3. Consulting Services 

(a) Consulting Period. The Executive shall be retained by the Company as a consultant for the period commencing on January 1,
2012 and expiring on June 30, 2012 (the “Consulting Period”). 
 (b) Scope of Consulting Services.
During the Consulting Period, the Executive shall consult with the Company Group and its executive officers on an as-needed basis regarding the business and operations of the Company and the Company Group, as well as the transition of duties of the
Executive to a successor chief executive officer of the Company (the “Consulting Services”). The Executive shall report directly to, and shall perform the Consulting Services as directed by, the Executive Chairman of SEACOR, or such
other officer of director of the Company Group as may be determined from time to time by the Company, in its sole discretion. The Executive also will cooperate with the Company and its affiliates in any pending or future litigation or investigation
or other dispute concerning third parties in which the Executive, by virtue of his prior employment with the Company, has relevant knowledge or information. In connection with providing the Consulting Services, the Executive shall comply in full
with all applicable law, and rules and regulations and with the Company Group’s Code of Business Conduct & Ethics (as such Code applies to consultants of the Company). 

(c) Performance of Consulting Services. The Consulting Services shall be required at such times and such places as shall not result
in unreasonable inconvenience to the Executive, recognizing the Executive’s other business commitments that he may have to accord priority over the performance of the Consulting Services. In order to minimize interference with the
Executive’s other commitments, the Consulting Services, to the extent practicable and not prejudicial to the Company Group, may be rendered by personal consultation at his residence or office wherever maintained, or by correspondence through
mail, telephone, e-mail or other similar mode of communication at times most convenient to him. It is hereby understood and agreed that during the Consulting Period, the Executive shall have the right to engage in full-time or part-time employment
with other business enterprises; provided that the Executive does not breach the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 5 hereof. The parties hereto reasonably 

  
 3 

 
anticipate that the level of bona fide services that the Executive is to perform during the Consulting Period will not exceed more than twenty percent (20%) of the average level of bona fide
services performed over the immediately preceding 36-month period. 
 (d) Status as Independent Contractor. The Executive
acknowledges and agrees that his status at all times during the Consulting Period shall be that of an independent contractor, and that he may not, at any time, act as a representative for or on behalf of the Company Group for any purpose or
transaction, and may not bind or otherwise obligate the Company Group in any manner whatsoever without obtaining the prior written approval of an authorized representative of the Company Group therefor. The Executive hereby waives any rights to be
treated as an employee or deemed employee of the Company Group for any purpose during the Consulting Period, and that he shall not be entitled to the benefits of being an employee or deemed employee of the Company Group during the Consulting Period.
The Executive hereby acknowledges and agrees that, except as provided in Section 2(c) hereof, he shall not be eligible for, shall not actively participate in, and shall not otherwise accrue benefits under, any of the Company Group’s
benefit plans during the Consulting Period. 
 (e) Consulting Fees. In consideration for the Consulting Services, subject
to the terms hereof, the Company shall pay the Executive consulting fee of $29,166.67 per month or the pro-rata amount for any partial month based on the number of days during which the Executive was a consultant in such month (the
“Consulting Fees”). The Consulting Fees shall be paid to the Executive, in arrears, on or about the last business day of the month to which such Consulting Fees relate. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the Consulting
Fees shall not be deemed to be wages, and therefore, shall not be subject to any withholdings or deductions. The Executive will receive a Form 1099 with regard to the Consulting Fees, and the Executive shall be solely responsible for, and shall pay,
all taxes assessed on such fee under the applicable laws of any Federal, state, or local jurisdiction. 
 (f) Expenses.
The Company will be responsible for any reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Executive during the Consulting Period that are directly related to the provision of Consulting Services by the Executive in accordance with the
Company’s standard expense reimbursement policies applicable to independent contractors, provided that (i) the incurrence of such expenses are approved in advance by the Company, and (ii) appropriate receipts and vouchers for such
expenses are submitted to the Company within thirty (30) days after the expenses are incurred. 
 (g) Early
Termination. The Consulting Services shall terminate by reason of the Executive’s death or Disability, or by reason of the Executive’s election to terminate the Consulting Services. In the event of any such termination, the Consulting
Fees shall cease with the month in which the termination occurs. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall be defined as a physical or mental impairment which prevents the Executive from performing the Consulting Services,
as determined by the Company in its sole discretion.

 4. Release of Claims 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to make any payment to the Executive under this Agreement until (i) the Executive shall have executed
and delivered to the Company the release of claims attached hereto as Exhibit A, and (ii) such release of claims shall have become effective and irrevocable by the Executive under all applicable law and its terms within thirty
(30) days following the Termination Date (the date the release becomes effective and irrevocable, the “Release Effective Date”). 
 5. Restrictive Covenants 
 In consideration of his rights and benefits under
this Agreement, the Executive agrees as follows: 
 (a) Non-disclosure. As a part of this Agreement, the Executive
acknowledges that he is being compensated, in part, in consideration for not disclosing information about the Company Group. The Executive specifically acknowledges and agrees that: 

(i) “Company Information” shall include all of the Company Group’s trade secrets (that is, any
information that derives independent economic value from not being generally known or readily ascertainable by the public, whether or not written or stored in any medium); the identity, preferences and selling and purchasing tendencies of actual
Company Group suppliers and customers and their respective decision-makers; the Company’s marketing plans, information and/or strategies for the development and growth of the Company Group’s products, its business and/or its customer base;
the terms of the Company Group’s deals and dealings with its customers and suppliers; information regarding Company Group employees, including but not limited to their skills, training, contacts, prospects and abilities; the Company
Group’s training techniques and programs; the Company Group’s costs, prices, technical data, inventory position and data processing and management information systems, programs, and practices; the Company Group’s personnel policies
and procedures and any other information regarding human resources at the Company Group that the Executive obtained in the course of his employment with the Company. To ensure the continued secrecy of Confidential Information, the Executive agrees
that he will not divulge, furnish or make accessible to anyone, Company Information at any time (including both during and following the Consulting Period), except with the consent of or pursuant to the Company’s instructions or pursuant to
mandatory court order, subpoena or other legal process. 
 (ii) Upon the Termination Date, the Executive will
immediately turn over to the Company any and all Company Information. The Executive agrees that he has no right to retain any copies of Company Information for any reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection (ii),
during the Executive’s provision of Consulting Services, the Company Group may expressly permit the Executive to retain certain Company Information, and such retention shall not be a violation of this subsection (ii) for so long as
the Company Group permits the Executive to retain such 

  
 5 

 
information and provided that the Executive immediately turns over to the Company any and all such Confidential Information upon the conclusion of the Consulting Services. 

(b) Non-disparagement. The Executive agrees that he shall not make nor cause to be made any negative, adverse or derogatory
comments or communications that could constitute disparagement of any member of the Company Group or their respective officers of directors, or that may be considered to be derogatory or detrimental to the good name or business reputation of any of
the foregoing, including but not limited to the business affairs, financial condition or prospects of any of the Company Group, including comments to any media outlet, industry group, financial institution, client, customer or employee of the
Company Group. Nothing in this Section 5(b) shall be construed to prevent the Executive from providing information to any governmental agency to the extent required by law, or giving truthful testimony in response to direct questions
asked pursuant to a lawful subpoena or other legal process. 
 (c) Noncompetition. The Executive acknowledges that
the Executive has and will continue to perform services of a unique nature for the Company that are irreplaceable, and that the Executive’s performance of such services to a competing business will result in irreparable harm to the Company.
Accordingly, the Executive agrees that the Executive will not, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, control, be employed by (whether as an employee, consultant, independent contractor or otherwise, and whether or not for compensation) or
render services to any of the following entities: Milestone Aviation Group or any of its affiliates, subsidiaries and/or related entities (collectively, the “Prohibited Activities”) during the period from the date hereof until
September 30, 2012 (the “Restricted Period”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prohibit the Executive from being (i) a passive owner of not more than one percent (1%) of the equity securities of
Milestone Aviation Group or any entity that may acquire or merge with Milestone Aviation Group or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries after the Termination Date, so long as the Executive has no active participation in the business of such
corporation or (ii) employed by, or providing services to, a subsidiary, division or unit of any entity that engages in any such competing business so long as the Executive does not provide any services to such portion of the entity’s
business that engages such competing business. 
 (d) Nonsolicitation; Noninterference. During the Restricted
Period, the Executive agrees that the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, individually or on behalf of any other person, firm, corporation or other entity, (a) solicit, aid or induce any customer of the Company Group to purchase goods
or services then sold by the Company Group from another person, firm, corporation or other entity or assist or aid any other person or entity in identifying or soliciting any such customer, (b) solicit, aid or induce any employee,
representative or agent of the Company Group to leave such employment or retention or, in the case of employees, to accept employment with or render services to or with any other person, firm, corporation or other entity unaffiliated with the
Company Group, or hire or retain any such employee, or take any action to materially assist or aid any other person, firm, corporation or other entity in identifying, hiring or soliciting any such employee, or (c) interfere, or aid or induce
any other person or entity in interfering, with the relationship between the Company Group and any of their respective vendors, joint venturers or licensors. An employee, representative or agent shall be deemed covered by this
Section 5(d) while so employed or retained and for a period of six (6) months thereafter.

 6. Enforcement of Restrictions 

(a) Reasonableness. The Executive hereby acknowledges that: (i) the restrictions provided in this Agreement (including,
without limitation, those contained in Section 5 hereof) are reasonable in light of the necessity of the protection of the business of the Company Group; (ii) his ability to work and earn a living will not be unreasonably restrained
by the application of these restrictions; and (iii) if a court concludes that any restrictions in this Agreement are overbroad or unenforceable for any reason, the court shall modify the relevant provision to the least extent necessary and such
provision shall be enforced as modified. 
 (b) Injunctive and Other Relief. The Executive recognizes and agrees that
should he fail to comply with the restrictions set forth in this Agreement (including, without limitation, those contained in Section 5 hereof), which restrictions are vital to the protection of the Company Group’s business, the
Company Group will suffer irreparable injury and harm for which there is no adequate remedy at law. Therefore, the Executive agrees that in the event of the breach or threatened breach by him of any of the restrictive covenants in this Agreement,
the Company Group shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief against him and any other relief as may be awarded by a court having jurisdiction over the dispute. In the event of a breach by the Executive of such provisions, the
Company Group shall have the right to cease making any payments, or providing other benefits, under this Agreement. The rights and remedies enumerated in this Section 6 shall be independent of each other, and shall be severally enforced,
and such rights and remedies shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights or remedies available to the Company Group in law or in equity. 
 7. Return of Property 
 Concurrently with the Termination Date, the
Executive shall deliver to a designated Company representative all records, documents, hardware, software, and all other Company property and all copies thereof in the Executive’s possession. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that all such
materials are the sole property of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Executive will be entitled to remove, transfer and retain (i) papers and other materials of a personal nature, including without
limitation photographs, personal correspondence, personal diaries, personal calendars and rolodexes, personal phone books and files relating exclusively to his personal affairs, (ii) information the Executive reasonably believes may be needed
for the planning and preparation of the Executive’s personal tax returns and (iii) copies of compensation and benefit plans and agreements relating to the Executive’s employment with or termination from the Company. 

8. Miscellaneous 
 (a)
Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Release set forth the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement supersedes any and all prior understandings and agreements between the parties and
neither party shall have any obligation toward the other except as set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Executive agrees that the execution of this Agreement and the payments made hereunder shall constitute
satisfaction in full of the Company’s obligations to the Executive 

  
 7 

 
under any and all plans, programs or arrangements between of Company under which the Executive may be entitled to severance or similar payment and/or benefits. This Agreement may not be
superseded, amended, or modified except in writing signed by both parties. 
 (b) Severability and Reformation. Each of
the provisions of this Agreement constitutes independent and separable covenants. Any portion of this Agreement that is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be overly broad in scope, duration, or area of applicability or in conflict
with any applicable statute or rule will be deemed, if possible, to be modified or altered so that it is not overly broad or in conflict or, if not possible, to be omitted from this Agreement. The invalidity of any portion of the Agreement will not
affect the validity of the remaining sections of this Agreement. 
 (c) No Waiver. The failure of a party to insist upon
strict adherence to any term of this Agreement on any occasion shall not be considered a waiver thereof or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement. 

(d) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and any rights herein granted are personal to the parties hereto and will not be
assigned, sublicensed, encumbered, pledged or otherwise transferred by either party without the prior written consent of the other party, and any attempt at violative assignment, sublicense, encumbrance or any other transfer, whether voluntary or by
operation of law, will be void and of no force and effect, except that this Agreement may be assigned to by the Company to any successor in interest to the business of the Company. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit
of the Company, its successors, affiliates and any person or other entity that succeeds to all or substantially all of the business, assets or property of the Company. This Agreement and all of the Executive’s rights hereunder shall inure to
the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s heirs and estate. 
 (e) No Conflict; Governing Law. Each party
represents that the performance of all of the terms of this Agreement will not result in a breach of, or constitute a conflict with, any other agreement or obligation of that party. This Agreement is made in, governed by, and is to be construed and
enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. The Executive agrees that any legal action or proceeding brought under or in connection with this Agreement or the

 6. ADEA Revocation Period. The Executive may revoke this General Release
within a period of seven days after execution of this General Release. The Executive agrees that any such revocation is not effective unless it is made in writing and delivered to the attention of the Secretary of the Company by the end of the

executed by both parties (the “Effective Date”). 
 7. Representations by the Executive. The
Executive confirms that no claim, charge, or complaint against any of the Released Parties, brought by him, exists before any federal, state, or local court or administrative agency. The Executive represents and warrants that he has no knowledge of
any improper or illegal actions or omissions by the Company, nor does he know of any basis on which any third party or governmental entity could assert such a claim. This expressly includes any and all conduct that potentially could give rise to
claims under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (Public Law 107-204). 
 8. No Right to File Action or Proceeding. The
Executive agrees that he will not, unless otherwise prohibited by law, at any time hereafter, voluntarily participate in as a party, or permit to be filed by any other person on his behalf or as a member of any alleged class of persons, any action

 COMPLETE GENOMICS, INC. 
 Common Stock 

(par value $0.001 per share) 
 At Market Issuance Sales Agreement 
 March 8, 2012 

MLV & Co. LLC 
 1251 Avenue of the
Americas 
 41st Floor 
 New
York, New York 10020 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 Complete Genomics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), confirms its agreement (this “Agreement”) with MLV & Co. LLC (the “MLV”), as
follows: 
 1. Issuance and Sale of Shares. The Company agrees that, from time to time during the term of this Agreement,
on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, it may issue and sell through MLV, shares (the “Placement Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”);
provided however, that in no event shall the Company issue or sell through MLV such number of Shares that (a) exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock registered pursuant to the effective Registration Statement (as defined below)
pursuant to which the offering will be made, or (b) exceeds the number of authorized but unissued shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the lesser of (a) and (b), the “Maximum Amount”). Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the parties hereto agree that compliance with the limitations set forth in this Section 1 on the amount of Placement Shares issued and sold under this Agreement shall be the sole responsibility of the Company and that
MLV shall have no obligation in connection with such compliance. The issuance and sale of Placement Shares through MLV will be effected pursuant to the Registration Statement (as defined below) filed by the Company and declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), although nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as requiring the Company to use the Registration Statement to issue Common Stock. 

The Company has filed, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”) and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “Securities Act Regulations”), with the Commission a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-178728), including a base prospectus, relating to
certain securities, including the Placement Shares, to be issued from time to time by the Company, and which incorporates by reference documents that the Company has filed or will file in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “Exchange Act Regulations”). The Company has prepared a prospectus supplement specifically relating to the offer and sale of
some or all of the Placement Shares to be issued in a Placement (as defined below) (each, a “Prospectus Supplement”) to the base prospectus included as part of such registration statement. The Company will furnish to

 
MLV, for use by MLV, copies of the prospectus included as part of such registration statement, as supplemented by a Prospectus Supplement, relating to the Placement Shares. Except where the
context otherwise requires, such registration statement, including all documents filed as part thereof or incorporated by reference therein, and including any information contained in a Prospectus (as defined below) subsequently filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act Regulations or deemed to be a part of such registration statement pursuant to Rule 430B of the Securities Act Regulations, is herein called the “Registration
Statement.” The base prospectus, including all documents incorporated therein by reference, included in the Registration Statement, as it may be supplemented by a Prospectus Supplement, in the form in which such prospectus and/or Prospectus
Supplement(s) have most recently been filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act Regulations, together with the then issued Issuer Free Writing Prospectus(es) (as defined below), is herein called
the “Prospectus.” Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein, and any
reference herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing after the execution hereof of any
document with the Commission deemed to be incorporated by reference therein (the “Incorporated Documents”). 

For purposes of this Agreement, all references to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or to any amendment or supplement thereto
shall be deemed to include the most recent copy filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval System, or if applicable, the Interactive Data Electronic Application system when used by the Commission
(collectively, “EDGAR”). 
 2. Placements. Each time that the Company wishes to issue and sell Placement
Shares hereunder (each, a “Placement”), it will notify MLV by email notice (or other method mutually agreed to in writing by the Parties) of the number of Placement Shares, the time period during which sales are requested to be
made, any limitation on the number of Placement Shares that may be sold in any one day and any minimum price below which sales may not be made (a “Placement Notice”), the form of which is attached hereto as Schedule 1. The
Placement Notice shall originate from any of the individuals from the Company set forth on Schedule 3 (with a copy to each of the other individuals from the Company listed on such schedule), and shall be addressed to each of the individuals
from MLV set forth on Schedule 3, as such Schedule 3 may be amended from time to time. The Placement Notice shall be effective unless and until (i) MLV declines to accept the terms contained therein for any reason, in its sole
discretion, (ii) the entire amount of the Placement Shares thereunder have been sold, (iii) the Company suspends or terminates the Placement Notice or (iv) this Agreement has been terminated under the provisions of Section 13.
The amount of any discount, commission or other compensation to be paid by the Company to MLV in connection with the sale of the Placement Shares shall be calculated in accordance with the terms set forth in Schedule 2. It is expressly acknowledged
and agreed that neither the Company nor MLV will have any obligation whatsoever with respect to a Placement or any Placement Shares unless and until the Company delivers a Placement Notice to MLV and MLV does not decline such Placement Notice
pursuant to the terms set forth above, and then only upon the terms specified therein and herein. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Sections 2 or 3 of this Agreement and the terms of a Placement Notice, the terms of the Placement
Notice will control.

 3. Sale of Placement Shares by MLV. 

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, for the period specified in the Placement Notice, MLV will use its commercially
reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable state and federal laws, rules and regulations and the rules of The NASDAQ Global Market (the “Exchange”), to sell the Placement Shares up to
the amount specified, and otherwise in accordance with the terms of such Placement Notice. MLV will provide written confirmation to the Company no later than the opening of the Trading Day (as defined below) immediately following the Trading Day on
which it has made sales of Placement Shares hereunder setting forth the number of Placement Shares sold on such day, the compensation payable by the Company to MLV pursuant to Schedule 2 with respect to such sales, and the Net Proceeds (as
defined below) payable to the Company, with an itemization of the deductions made by MLV (as set forth in Section 5(b)) from the gross proceeds that it receives from such sales. Subject to the terms of the Placement Notice, MLV may sell
Placement Shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act Regulations, including without limitation sales made directly on the Exchange, on any other existing
trading market for the Common Stock or to or through a market maker. Subject to the terms of a Placement Notice, MLV may also sell Placement Shares by any other method permitted by law and the rules of the Exchange, including but not limited to
privately negotiated transactions, with the Company’s consent. “Trading Day” means any day on which Common Stock are purchased and sold on the Exchange. 
 (b) During the term of this Agreement, neither MLV nor any of its affiliates or subsidiaries shall engage in (i) any short sale of any security of the Company, (ii) any sale of any security of
the Company that MLV does not own or any sale which is consummated by the delivery of a security of the Company borrowed by, or for the account of, MLV or (iii) any market making, bidding, purchasing, stabilization or other trading activity
with regard to the Common Stock, or attempting to induce another person to do any of the foregoing, if such activity would be prohibited under Regulation M or other anti-manipulation rules under the Securities Act. Neither MLV nor any of its
affiliates or subsidiaries, shall engage in any proprietary trading or trading for MLV’s (or its affiliates’ or subsidiaries’) own account. 
 4. Suspension of Sales. The Company or MLV may, upon notice to the other party in writing (including by email correspondence to each of the individuals of the other Party set forth on Schedule 3,
if receipt of such correspondence is actually acknowledged by any of the individuals to whom the notice is sent, other than via auto-reply) or by telephone (confirmed immediately by verifiable facsimile transmission or email correspondence to each
of the individuals of the other Party set forth on Schedule 3), suspend any sale of Placement Shares; provided, however, that such suspension shall not affect or impair any party’s obligations with respect to any Placement Shares sold
hereunder prior to the receipt of such notice. Each of the parties agrees that no such notice under this Section 4 shall be effective against any other party unless it is made to one of the individuals named on Schedule 3 hereto, as such
Schedule may be amended from time to time.

 5. Sale and Delivery to MLV; Settlement. 

(a) Sale of Placement Shares. On the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained and subject to the terms
and conditions herein set forth, upon MLV’s acceptance of the terms of a Placement Notice, and unless the sale of the Placement Shares described therein has been declined, suspended, or otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, MLV, for the period specified in the Placement Notice, will use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices to sell such Placement Shares up to the amount specified, and otherwise in
accordance with the terms of such Placement Notice. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) there can be no assurance that MLV will be successful in selling Placement Shares, (ii) MLV will incur no liability or obligation to the
Company or any other person or entity if it does not sell Placement Shares for any reason other than a failure by MLV to use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and
regulations to sell such Placement Shares as required under this Agreement and (iii) MLV shall be under no obligation to purchase Placement Shares on a principal basis pursuant to this Agreement, except as otherwise agreed by MLV and the
Company. 
 (b) Settlement of Placement Shares. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable
Placement Notice, settlement for sales of Placement Shares will occur on the third (3rd) Trading Day (or such earlier day as is industry practice for regular-way trading) following the date on which such sales are made (each, a “Settlement Date”). The amount of
proceeds to be delivered to the Company on a Settlement Date against receipt of the Placement Shares sold (the “Net Proceeds”) will be equal to the aggregate sales price received by MLV, after deduction for (i) MLV’s
commission, discount or other compensation for such sales payable by the Company pursuant to Schedule 2 hereof, and (ii) any transaction fees imposed by any governmental or self-regulatory organization in respect of such sales.

 (c) Delivery of Placement Shares. On or before each Settlement Date, the Company will, or will cause its transfer
agent to, electronically transfer the Placement Shares being sold by crediting MLV’s or its designee’s account (provided MLV shall have given the Company written notice of such designee a reasonable time prior to the Settlement Date) at
The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit and Withdrawal at Custodian System or by such other means of delivery as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto which in all cases shall be freely tradable, transferable, registered shares
in good deliverable form. On each Settlement Date, MLV will deliver the related Net Proceeds in same day funds to an account designated by the Company on, or prior to, the Settlement Date. The Company agrees that if the Company, or its transfer
agent (if applicable), defaults in its obligation to deliver Placement Shares on a Settlement Date, the Company agrees that in addition to and in no way limiting the rights and obligations set forth in Section 11(a) hereto, it will
(i) hold MLV harmless against any loss, claim, damage, or reasonable documented expense (including reasonable documented legal fees and expenses), as incurred, arising out of or in connection with such default by the Company or its transfer
agent (if applicable), and (ii) pay to MLV (without duplication) any commission, discount, or other compensation to which it would otherwise have been entitled absent such default. 

  
 4 

 (d) Limitations on Offering Size. Under no circumstances shall the Company
cause or request the offer or sale of any Placement Shares in a Placement if, after giving effect to the sale of such Placement Shares in such Placement, the aggregate gross sales proceeds of Placement Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement would
exceed the lesser of (A) together with all sales of Placement Shares under this Agreement to date, the Maximum Amount, (B) the amount available for offer and sale under the currently effective Registration Statement, (C) the aggregate
amount specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement(s) and (D) the amount authorized from time to time to be issued and sold under this Agreement by the Company’s board of directors, a duly authorized committee thereof or a duly
authorized executive committee, and notified to MLV in writing. Under no circumstances shall the Company cause or request the offer or sale of any Placement Shares pursuant to this Agreement at a price lower than the minimum price authorized from
time to time by the Company’s board of directors, a duly authorized committee thereof or a duly authorized executive committee, and notified to MLV in writing. Further, under no circumstances shall the Company cause or permit the aggregate
offering amount of Placement Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement to exceed the Maximum Amount. 
 6. Representations and
Warranties of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with MLV that as of the date of this Agreement and as of each Applicable Time (as defined below), unless such representation, warranty or agreement specifies a
different date or time: 
 (a) Registration Statement and Prospectus. The Company and, assuming no act or omission on the
part of MLV that would make such statement untrue, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement meet the requirements for and comply with the conditions for the use of Form S-3 under the Securities Act. The Registration Statement has been filed
with the Commission and has been declared effective under the Securities Act. The Prospectus Supplement(s) will name MLV as the agent in the section entitled “Plan of Distribution.” The Company has not received, and has no notice of, any
order of the Commission preventing or suspending the use of the Registration Statement, or threatening or instituting proceedings for that purpose. The Registration Statement and, assuming no act or omission on the part of MLV that would make such
statement untrue, the offer and sale of Placement Shares as contemplated hereby meet the requirements of Rule 415 under the Securities Act and comply in all material respects with said Rule. Any statutes, regulations, contracts or other
documents that are required to be described in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or to be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement have been so described or filed. Copies of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, and any such
amendments or supplements and all documents incorporated by reference therein that were filed with the Commission on or prior to the date of this Agreement have been delivered, or are available through EDGAR, to MLV and its counsel. The Company has
not distributed and, prior to the later to occur of each Settlement Date and completion of the distribution of the Placement Shares, will not distribute any offering material in connection with the offering or sale of the Placement Shares other than
the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (as defined below) to which MLV has consented, any such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Common Stock is currently listed on the
Exchange under the trading symbol “GNOM”. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, including the Incorporated Documents, the Company has not, in the 12 months preceding the date hereof, received notice from the Exchange to the

  
 5 

 
effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, including the Incorporated Documents, or the
Prospectus, the Company has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future continue to be in compliance with all such listing and maintenance requirements. 
 (b) No Misstatement or Omission. The Registration Statement, when it became effective, and the Prospectus, and any amendment or supplement thereto, on the date of such Prospectus or amendment or
supplement, conformed and will conform in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act. At each Settlement Date, the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, as of such date, will conform in all material respects with the
requirements of the Securities Act. The Registration Statement, when it became effective, did not, and as updated by a Prospectus Supplement, will not, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The Prospectus and any amendment and supplement thereto, on the date thereof and at each Applicable Time (defined below), did not or will not include an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The documents incorporated by reference in the Prospectus or any Prospectus Supplement
did not, and any further documents filed and incorporated by reference therein will not, when filed with the Commission, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated in such document or
necessary to make the statements in such document, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The foregoing shall not apply to, and the Company neither makes nor shall make any representation or warranty in respect of,
statements in, or omissions from, any such document made in reliance upon, and in conformity with, information furnished to the Company by MLV specifically for use in the preparation thereof. 

(c) Conformity with Securities Act and Exchange Act. The Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, and the documents incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, when such documents were or are filed with the Commission under the
Securities Act or the Exchange Act or became or become effective under the Securities Act, as the case may be, conformed or will conform in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as applicable.

 (d) Financial Information. The consolidated financial statements of the Company included or incorporated by reference
in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses, if any, together with the related notes and schedules, present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of the
dates indicated and the consolidated results of operations, cash flows and changes in stockholders’ equity of the Company for the periods specified and have been prepared in compliance with the requirements of the Securities Act and Exchange
Act, as applicable, and in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis (except (i) as may be otherwise noted therein, (ii) in the case of unaudited interim
financial statements, to the extent that they may not include footnotes required by GAAP or may be condensed or summary statements and (iii) for such adjustments which will not be material, either individually or in the aggregate) during the
periods involved; the other financial 

  
 6 

 
data with respect to the Company contained or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses, if any, are accurately and fairly
presented and prepared on a basis consistent with the financial statements and books and records of the Company; there are no financial statements (historical or pro forma) that are required to be included or incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement, or the Prospectus that are not included or incorporated by reference as required; the Company does not have any material liabilities or obligations, direct or contingent (including any off-balance sheet obligations), not
described in the Registration Statement (including the exhibits thereto and Incorporated Documents), and the Prospectus which are required to be described in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (including Exhibits thereto and Incorporated
Documents); and all disclosures contained or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses, if any, regarding “non-GAAP financial measures” (as such term is defined by the
rules and regulations of the Commission) comply in all material respects with Regulation G of the Exchange Act and Item 10 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, to the extent applicable. 

(e) Conformity with EDGAR Filing. The Prospectus delivered to MLV for use in connection with the sale of the Placement Shares
pursuant to this Agreement will be identical to the versions of the Prospectus created to be transmitted to the Commission for filing via EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T. 

(f) Organization. The Company is, and will be, duly organized, validly existing as a corporation and in good standing under the
law of Delaware. The Company is, and will be, duly qualified as a foreign corporation for transaction of business and in good standing under the laws of each other jurisdiction in which its ownership or lease of property or the conduct of its
business requires such qualification, and has corporate power and authority necessary to own or hold its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, except where the failure to be so
qualified or in good standing or have such power or authority would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect or would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the assets, business, operations,
earnings, properties, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects, stockholders’ equity or results of operations of the Company, or prevent or materially interfere with consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (a “Material
Adverse Effect”). 
 (g) Subsidiaries. As of the date of the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form
10-K, the Company has no significant subsidiaries (as such term is defined in Rule 1-02 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Commission). 
 (h) No Violation or Default. The Company is not in violation of its charter or by-laws or similar organizational documents. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, the
Company is not (i) in default, and no event has occurred that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a default, in the due performance or observance of any term, covenant or condition contained in any indenture, mortgage,
deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company is subject; or (ii) in violation of any law or statute or
any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or arbitrator or governmental or regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Company, except, in the 

  
 7 

 
case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, for any such violation or default that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, to the Company’s knowledge, no other party under any material contract or other agreement to which it is a party is in default in any respect thereunder where such default
would have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (i) No Material Adverse Change. Subsequent to the respective dates as of which
information is given in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses, if any (including any document deemed incorporated by reference therein), there has not been (i) any Material Adverse Effect,
(ii) other than this Agreement, any transaction which is material to the Company, (iii) any obligation or liability, direct or contingent (including any off-balance sheet obligations), incurred by the Company, which is material to the
Company, (iv) any material change in the capital stock (other than (a) as a result of the sale of Placement Shares, (b) as described in a proxy statement filed on Schedule 14A or a Registration Statement on Form S-4 and otherwise
publicly announced, (c) changes in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company due to the issuance of shares upon the exercise or conversion of securities exercisable for, or convertible into, shares of Common Stock
outstanding on the date hereof, or the vesting of restricted stock units, or (d) the issuance of options or warrants to purchase Common Stock of the Company or the issuance of restricted stock of the Company, in each case, pursuant to the
Company’s stock option plans) or outstanding long-term indebtedness of the Company (other than drawdowns from credit facilities existing on the date hereof) or (v) any dividend or distribution of any kind declared, paid or made on the
capital stock of the Company, other than in each case above in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise disclosed in the Registration Statement or Prospectus (including any document deemed incorporated by reference therein). 

(j) Capitalization. The issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company have been validly issued, are fully paid and
non-assessable and, other than as disclosed in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, are not subject to any preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or similar rights. The Company has an authorized, issued and outstanding capitalization as
set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as of the dates referred to therein (other than the grant of additional options under the Company’s existing stock option plans, or changes in the number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock of the Company due to the issuance of shares upon the exercise or conversion of securities exercisable for, or convertible into, Common Stock outstanding on the date hereof or as a result of the issuance of Placement Shares) and such
authorized capital stock conforms to the description thereof set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus. The description of the Common Stock in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus is complete and accurate in all material
respects. Except as disclosed in or contemplated by the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as of the date referred to therein, the Company did not have outstanding any options to purchase, or any rights or warrants to subscribe for, or any
securities or obligations convertible into, or exchangeable for, or any contracts or commitments to issue or sell, any shares of capital stock or other securities. 
 (k) Authorization; Enforceability. The Company has corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and perform the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly
authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and is a valid and 

  
 8 

 
binding agreement of the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that (i) enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles and (ii) the indemnification and contribution provisions of Section 11 hereof may be limited by federal or state securities laws and public
policy considerations in respect thereof. 
 (l) Authorization of Placement Shares. The Placement Shares, when issued and

the conduct of its business as described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (the “Permits”), except where the failure to possess, obtain or make the same would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, the Company has not received written notice of any proceeding relating to revocation or modification of any such Permit or has any
reason to believe 

  
 10 

 
that such Permit will not be renewed in the ordinary course, except where the failure to obtain any such renewal would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. 
 (s) Market Capitalization. The aggregate market value of the outstanding voting and
non-voting common equity (as defined in Securities Act Rule 405) of the Company held by persons other than affiliates of the Company (pursuant to Securities Act Rule 144, those that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries,

sold on the Exchange within the 60 days prior to the date hereof, on which the Company is filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 times (y) the number of Non-Affiliate Shares). 

(t) No Material Defaults. Neither the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries has defaulted on any installment on indebtedness for
borrowed money or on any rental on one or more long-term leases, which defaults, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has not filed a report pursuant to Section 13(a) or
15(d) of the Exchange Act since the filing of its last Annual Report on Form 10-K, indicating that it (i) has failed to pay any dividend or sinking fund installment on preferred stock or (ii) has defaulted on any installment on

Placement Shares.

taxes shown thereon through the date hereof, to the extent that such taxes have become due and are not being contested in good faith, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as
otherwise disclosed in or contemplated by the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, no tax deficiency has been determined adversely to the Company which has had, or would reasonably be expected

  
 11 

 
to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has no knowledge of any federal, state or other governmental tax deficiency, penalty or assessment which has been
or might be asserted or threatened against it which could have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (y) Title to Personal
Property. Except as set forth in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, the Company has good and valid title to all personal property described in the Registration Statement or Prospectus as being owned by it that is material to the
business of the Company free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and claims, except those that (i) do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company or (ii) would not reasonably be
expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect. Any real property described in the Registration Statement or Prospectus as being leased by the Company is held by it under valid and existing leases, except those that
(A) do not materially interfere with the use made or proposed to be made of such property by the Company or (B) would not be reasonably expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(z) Intellectual Property. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, to the Company’s knowledge,
the Company owns or possesses adequate enforceable rights to use all patents, patent applications, trademarks (both registered and unregistered), service marks, trade names, trademark registrations, service mark registrations, copyrights, licenses
and know-how (including trade secrets and other unpatented and/or unpatentable proprietary or confidential information, systems or procedures) (collectively, the “Intellectual Property”), necessary for the conduct of its business as
conducted as of the date hereof, except to the extent that the failure to own or possess adequate rights to use such Intellectual Property would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except
as disclosed in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or otherwise disclosed in writing to MLV, the Company has not received any written notice of any claim of infringement or conflict which asserted Intellectual Property rights of others,
which infringement or conflict, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, would result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or otherwise disclosed in writing to MLV, there are no pending,
or to the Company’s knowledge, threatened judicial proceedings or interference proceedings challenging the Company’s rights in or to or the validity of the scope of any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ patents, patent
applications or proprietary information. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or otherwise disclosed in writing to MLV no other entity or individual has any right or claim in any of the Company’s patents, patent
applications or any patent to be issued therefrom by virtue of any contract, license or other agreement entered into between such entity or individual and the Company or by any non-contractual obligation, other than by written licenses granted by
the Company. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or otherwise disclosed in writing to MLV, the Company has not received any written notice of any claim challenging the rights of the Company in or to any Intellectual
Property owned, licensed or optioned by the Company which claim, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, would result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (aa) Environmental Laws. Except as set forth in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, the Company: (i) is in compliance with any and all applicable federal, state, local

and foreign laws, rules, regulations, decisions and orders relating to the protection of human health and safety, the environment or hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, pollutants or

the Registration Statement and the Prospectus; and (iii) has not received notice of any actual or potential liability for the investigation or remediation of any disposal or release of hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, pollutants or
contaminants, except, in the case of any of clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above, for any such failure to comply or failure to receive required permits, licenses, other approvals or liability as would not, individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (bb) Disclosure Controls. The Company maintains a system of
internal accounting controls designed to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations; (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability; (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; and (iv) the recorded
accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. The Company is not aware of any material weaknesses in its internal control over financial
reporting (other than as set forth in the Prospectus). Since the date of the latest audited financial statements of the Company included in the Prospectus, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that
has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (other than as set forth in the Prospectus). The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company and each of its Subsidiaries is made known to the certifying officers
by others within those entities. The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing date of the most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K
(such date, the “Evaluation Date”). The Company presented in its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their
evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls (as such term is defined in Item 307(b) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act) or, to the
Company’s knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect the Company’s internal controls (other than as set forth in the Prospectus). To the knowledge of the Company, the Company’s “internal controls over financial
reporting” and “disclosure controls and procedures” are effective. 
 (cc) Sarbanes-Oxley. There is and
has been no failure on the part of the Company or, to the knowledge of the Company, any of the Company’s directors or officers, in their capacities as such, to comply with any applicable provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder. Each of the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer of the Company (or each former principal executive officer of the Company and each former principal financial officer of the Company as
applicable) has made all certifications required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act with respect to all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it or furnished

  
 13 

 
by it to the Commission. For purposes of the preceding sentence, “principal executive officer” and “principal financial officer” shall have the meanings given to such terms in
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

fees, brokerage commissions or similar payments in connection with the transactions herein contemplated, except as may otherwise exist with respect to MLV pursuant to this Agreement.

is threatened which would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect

 (gg) Operations. The
operations of the Company is and has been conducted at all times in compliance with applicable financial record keeping and reporting requirements of the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act of 1970, as amended, the money laundering
statutes of all jurisdictions to which the Company is subject, the rules and regulations thereunder and any related or similar rules, regulations or guidelines, issued, administered or enforced by any governmental agency (collectively, the
“Money Laundering Laws”), except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; and no action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator
involving the Company with respect to the Money Laundering Laws is pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened. 

(hh) Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. There are no transactions, arrangements and other relationships between and/or among the
Company, and/or, to the knowledge of the Company, any of its affiliates and any unconsolidated entity, including, but not limited to, any structured finance, special purpose or limited purpose entity (each, an “Off Balance Sheet
Transaction”) that would reasonably be expected to affect materially the Company’s liquidity or the availability of or requirements for its capital resources, including those Off Balance Sheet Transactions described in the
Commission’s Statement about Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations (Release Nos. 33-8056; 34-45321; FR-61), required to be described in the Prospectus which have not been described as
required. 
 (ii) Underwriter Agreements. The Company is not a party to any agreement with an agent or underwriter for
any other “at-the-market” or continuous equity transaction.

each material employee benefit plan, within the meaning of Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), that is maintained, administered or contributed to by the Company or any of
its affiliates for employees or former employees of the Company has been 

  
 14 

 
maintained in material compliance with its terms and the requirements of any applicable statutes, orders, rules and regulations, including but not limited to ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the “Code”); no prohibited transaction, within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, has occurred which would result in a material liability to the Company with respect to
any such plan, excluding transactions effected pursuant to a statutory or administrative exemption; and for each such plan that is subject to the funding rules of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA, no “accumulated
funding deficiency” as defined in Section 412 of the Code has been incurred, whether or not waived, and the fair market value of the assets of each such plan (excluding for these purposes accrued but unpaid contributions) exceeds the
present value of all benefits accrued under such plan determined using reasonable actuarial assumptions. 
 (kk) Margin
Rules. Neither the issuance, sale and delivery of the Placement Shares nor the application of the proceeds thereof by the Company as described in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus will violate Regulation T, U or X of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System or any other regulation of such Board of Governors.

(oo) No Misstatement or Omission in an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus. Each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, as of each Applicable
Time (as defined in Section 25 below), did not, does not and will not include any information that conflicted, conflicts or will conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, including any
incorporated document deemed to be a part thereof that has not been superseded or modified. The foregoing sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus based upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Company by MLV specifically for use therein. 
 (pp) No Conflicts. Neither the execution of
this Agreement, nor the issuance, offering or sale of the Placement Shares, nor the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated herein and therein, nor the compliance by the Company with the terms and provisions hereof and thereof will

7. Covenants of the Company. The Company covenants and agrees with MLV that: 

(a) Registration Statement Amendments. After the date of this Agreement and during any period in which a Prospectus relating to
any Placement Shares is required to be delivered by MLV under the Securities Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 under the Securities Act), (i) the Company will notify MLV promptly of the
time when any subsequent amendment to the Registration Statement, other than documents incorporated by reference, has been filed with the Commission and/or has become effective or any subsequent supplement to the Prospectus has been filed and of any
request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information, (ii) the Company will prepare and file with the Commission, within a reasonable period following MLV’s
request, any amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or Prospectus that, in MLV’s reasonable opinion, may be necessary or advisable in connection with the distribution of the Placement Shares by MLV (provided, however, that the
failure of MLV to make such request shall not relieve the Company of any obligation or liability hereunder, or affect MLV’s right to rely on the representations and warranties made by the Company in this Agreement and provided, further, that
the only remedy MLV shall have with respect to the failure to make such filing shall be to cease making sales 

  
 17 

 
under this Agreement until such amendment or supplement is filed); (iii) the Company will not file any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Prospectus relating to the
Placement Shares or a security convertible into the Placement Shares unless a copy thereof has been submitted to MLV within a reasonable period of time before the filing and MLV has consented thereto, provided that such consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (provided, however, that the failure of MLV to provide such consent shall not relieve the Company of any obligation or liability hereunder, or affect MLV’s right to rely on the representations and
warranties made by the Company in this Agreement and provided, further, that the only remedy MLV shall have with respect to the failure by the Company to obtain such consent shall be to cease making sales under this Agreement) and the Company will
furnish to MLV at the time of filing thereof a copy of any document that upon filing is deemed to be incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement or Prospectus, except for those documents available via EDGAR; and (iv) the Company
will cause each amendment or supplement to the Prospectus to be filed with the Commission as required pursuant to the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act or, in the case of any document to be incorporated therein by reference,
to be filed with the Commission as required pursuant to the Exchange Act, within the time period prescribed (the determination to file or not file any amendment or supplement with the Commission under this Section 7(a), based on the
Company’s reasonable opinion or reasonable objections, shall be made exclusively by the Company). 
 (b) Notice of
Commission Stop Orders. The Company will advise MLV, promptly after it receives notice or obtains knowledge thereof, of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, of the
suspension of the qualification of the Placement Shares for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for any such purpose; and it will promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the
issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal if such a stop order should be issued. The Company will advise MLV promptly after it receives any request by the Commission for any amendments to the Registration Statement or any amendment or
supplements to the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or for additional information related to the offering of the Placement Shares or for additional information related to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free
Writing Prospectus. 
 (c) Delivery of Prospectus; Subsequent Changes. During any period in which a Prospectus relating
to the Placement Shares is required to be delivered by MLV under the Securities Act with respect to the offer and sale of the Placement Shares, (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 under the
Securities Act), the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply in all material respects with all requirements imposed upon it by the Securities Act, as from time to time in force, and to file on or before their respective due
dates all reports and any definitive proxy or information statements required to be filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14, 15(d) or any other provision of or under the Exchange Act. If the Company has omitted
any information from the Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 430A under the Securities Act, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with the provisions of and make all requisite filings with the Commission pursuant to said Rule
430A and to notify MLV promptly of all such filings. If during such period any event occurs as a result of 

  
 18 

 
which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light
of the circumstances then existing, not misleading, or if during such period it is necessary to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus to comply with the Securities Act, the Company will promptly notify MLV to suspend the
offering of Placement Shares during such period and the Company will promptly amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus (at the expense of the Company) so as to correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance.

 (d) Listing of Placement Shares. During any period in which the Prospectus relating to the Placement Shares is
required to be delivered by MLV under the Securities Act with respect to the offer and sale of the Placement Shares, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the listing of the Company’s Common Stock on the Exchange
and to qualify the Placement Shares for sale under the securities laws of such jurisdictions as MLV reasonably designates and to continue such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Placement Shares; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith to qualify as a foreign corporation or dealer in securities or file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction. 

(e) Delivery of Registration Statement and Prospectus. The Company will furnish to MLV and its counsel (at the expense of the
Company) copies of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus (including all documents incorporated by reference therein) and all amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement or Prospectus that are filed with the Commission during any
period in which a Prospectus relating to the Placement Shares is required to be delivered under the Securities Act (including all documents filed with the Commission during such period that are deemed to be incorporated by reference therein), in
each case as soon as reasonably practicable and in such quantities as MLV may from time to time reasonably request and, at MLV’s request, will also furnish copies of the Prospectus to each exchange or market on which sales of the Placement
Shares may be made; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to furnish any document (other than the Prospectus) to MLV to the extent such document is available on EDGAR. 

(f) Earnings Statement. The Company will make generally available to its security holders as soon as practicable, but in any event
not later than 15 months after the end of the Company’s current fiscal quarter, an earnings statement covering a 12-month period that satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) and Rule 158 of the Securities Act. 

(g) Use of Proceeds. The Company will use the Net Proceeds as described in the Prospectus in the section entitled “Use of
Proceeds.” 
 (h) Notice of Other Sales. Without the prior written consent of MLV, the Company will not, directly or
indirectly, offer to sell, sell, contract to sell, grant any option to sell or otherwise dispose of any Common Stock (other than the Placement Shares offered pursuant to this Agreement) or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common
Stock, warrants or any rights to purchase or acquire, Common Stock during the period beginning on the fifth (5th) Trading Day immediately prior to the date on which any Placement Notice is delivered to MLV hereunder and ending on the fifth
(5th) Trading Day immediately following the final 

  
 19 

 
Settlement Date with respect to Placement Shares sold pursuant to such Placement Notice (or, if the Placement Notice has been terminated or suspended prior to the sale of all Placement Shares
covered by a Placement Notice, the date of such suspension or termination); and will not directly or indirectly in any other “at-the-market” or continuous equity transaction offer to sell, sell, contract to sell, grant any option to sell
or otherwise dispose of any Common Stock (other than the Placement Shares offered pursuant to this Agreement) or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, warrants or any rights to purchase or acquire, Common Stock prior to the
termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that such restrictions will not be required in connection with the Company’s issuance or sale of (i) Common Stock, options to purchase Common Stock or Common Stock issuable upon the
exercise of options, pursuant to any employee or director stock option or benefits plan, stock ownership plan or dividend reinvestment plan of the Company (but not Common Stock subject to a waiver to exceed plan limits in its dividend reinvestment
plan) whether now in effect or hereafter implemented; (ii) Common Stock issuable upon conversion of securities or the exercise of warrants, options or other rights in effect or outstanding, and disclosed in filings by the Company available on
EDGAR or otherwise in writing to MLV; (iii) Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock, offered and sold in a privately negotiated transaction to vendors, customers, strategic partners or potential strategic
partners who are qualified institutional buyers or are “accredited investors” within the meaning of such term under paragraph (a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3), (a)(7) or (a)(8) of Rule 501 under the Securities Act and otherwise conducted in a manner
so as not to be integrated with the offering of Common Stock hereby and (iv) Common Stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock, in a registered underwritten public offering or registered direct offering.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, nothing herein shall be construed to restrict the Company’s ability, or require the consent of MLV, to file a registration statement under the Securities Act. 

(i) Change of Circumstances. The Company will, at any time during the pendency of a Placement Notice advise MLV promptly after it
shall have received notice or obtained knowledge thereof, of any information or fact that would alter or affect in any material respect any opinion, certificate, letter or other document required to be provided to MLV pursuant to this Agreement.

 (j) Due Diligence Cooperation. During the term of this Agreement, the Company will cooperate with any reasonable due
diligence review conducted by MLV or its representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, providing information and making available documents and senior corporate officers, during regular
business hours and at the Company’s principal offices, as MLV may reasonably request. 
 (k) Required Filings Relating
to Placement of Placement Shares. The Company agrees that on such dates as the Securities Act shall require, the Company will (i) file a prospectus supplement with the Commission under the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) under the
Securities Act (the date of each and every filing under Rule 424(b), a “Filing Date”), which prospectus supplement will set forth, within the relevant period, the amount of Placement Shares sold through MLV, the Net Proceeds to the
Company and the compensation payable by the Company to MLV with respect to such Placement Shares, and (ii) deliver such number of copies of each such prospectus supplement to each exchange or market on which such sales were effected as may be
required by the rules or regulations of such exchange or market. 

  
 20 

 (l) Representation Dates; Certificate. On the date of this Agreement and each time
the Company: 
 (i) files the Prospectus relating to the Placement Shares or amends or supplements (other than a prospectus
supplement relating solely to an offering of securities other than the Placement Shares) the Registration Statement or the Prospectus relating to the Placement Shares by means of a post-effective amendment, sticker, or supplement but not by means of
incorporation of documents by reference into the Registration Statement or the Prospectus relating to the Placement Shares; 

(ii) files an annual report on Form 10-K under the Exchange Act (including any Form 10-K/A containing amended financial information or a
material amendment to the previously filed Form 10-K); 
 (iii) files its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q under the Exchange Act;
or 
 (iv) files a current report on Form 8-K containing amended financial information (other than information
“furnished” pursuant to Items 2.02 or 7.01 of Form 8-K or to provide disclosure pursuant to Item 8.01 of Form 8-K relating to the reclassification of certain properties as discontinued operations in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 144) under the Exchange Act; 
 (Each date of filing of one or more of the documents
referred to in clauses (i) through (iv) shall be a “Representation Date”) 
 the Company shall furnish MLV (but in
the case of clause (iv) above only if MLV reasonably determines that the information contained in such Form 8-K is material) with a certificate, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 7(l). The requirement to provide a certificate under
this Section 7(l) shall be waived for any Representation Date occurring at a time at which no Placement Notice is pending, which waiver shall continue until the earlier to occur of the date the Company delivers a Placement Notice
hereunder (which for such calendar quarter shall be considered a Representation Date) and the next occurring Representation Date; provided, however, that such waiver shall not apply for any Representation Date on which the Company files its annual
report on Form 10-K. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company subsequently decides to sell Placement Shares following a Representation Date when the Company relied on such waiver and did not provide MLV with a certificate under this
Section 7(l), then before the Company delivers the Placement Notice or MLV sells any Placement Shares, the Company shall provide MLV with a certificate, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 7(l), dated the date of the Placement Notice.

 (m) Legal Opinion. No later than (1) ten (10) Trading Days after the date of this Agreement and
(2) five (5) Trading Days after each Representation Date with respect to which the Company is obligated to deliver a certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 7(l) for which no waiver is applicable, the Company shall cause to be
furnished to MLV written opinions of Latham & Watkins LLP (“Company Counsel”), or other counsel satisfactory to 

  
 21 

 
MLV, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to MLV and its counsel; provided, however, the Company shall be required to furnish to MLV no more than one opinion hereunder per calendar
quarter; provided, further, that in lieu of such opinions for subsequent periodic filings under the Exchange Act, counsel may furnish MLV with a letter (a “Reliance Letter”) to the effect that MLV may rely on a prior opinion
delivered under this Section 7(m) to the same extent as if it were dated the date of such letter (except that statements in such prior opinion shall be deemed to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended or supplemented
as of the date of the Reliance Letter). 
 (n) Comfort Letter. No later than (1) ten (10) Trading Days after
the date of this Agreement and (2) five (5) Trading Days after each Representation Date, other than pursuant to Section 7(l)(iii), with respect to which the Company is obligated to deliver a certificate in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit 7(l) for which no waiver is applicable, the Company shall cause its independent accountants to furnish MLV letters (the “Comfort Letters”), dated the date the Comfort Letter is delivered, which shall meet the
requirements set forth in this Section 7(n); provided, that if requested by MLV, the Company shall cause a Comfort Letter to be furnished to MLV within ten (10) Trading Days of the date of occurrence of any material transaction or event,
including the restatement of the Company’s financial statements. The Comfort Letter from the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm shall be in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to MLV, (i) confirming that
they are an independent registered public accounting firm within the meaning of the Securities Act and the PCAOB, (ii) stating, as of such date, the conclusions and findings of such firm with respect to the financial information and other
matters ordinarily covered by accountants’ “comfort letters” to underwriters in connection with registered public offerings (the first such letter, the “Initial Comfort Letter”) and (iii) updating the Initial
Comfort Letter with any information that would have been included in the Initial Comfort Letter had it been given on such date and modified as necessary to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, as amended and supplemented to the
date of such letter. 
 (o) Market Activities. The Company will not, directly or indirectly, (i) take any action
designed to cause or result in, or that constitutes or might reasonably be expected to constitute, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of shares of Common Stock or
(ii) sell, bid for, or purchase shares of Common Stock in violation of Regulation M, or pay anyone any compensation for soliciting purchases of the Placement Shares other than MLV. 

(p) Investment Company Act. The Company will conduct its affairs in such a manner so as to reasonably ensure that it will not be
or become, at any time prior to the termination of this Agreement, an “investment company,” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act. 
 (q) No Offer to Sell. Other than an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus approved in advance by the Company and MLV in its capacity as agent hereunder, neither MLV nor the Company (including its agents
and representatives, other than MLV in their capacity as such) will make, use, prepare, authorize, approve or refer to any written communication (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act), required to be filed with the Commission, that
constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy Placement Shares hereunder. 

  
 22 

 (r) Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Company and the Subsidiaries will maintain and keep
accurate books and records reflecting their assets and maintain internal accounting controls in a manner designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for
external purposes in accordance with GAAP and including those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the
Company, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, (iii) that receipts and expenditures of the
Company are being made only in accordance with management’s and the Company’s directors’ authorization and (iv) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition
of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on its financial statements. The Company and the Subsidiaries will maintain such controls and other procedures, including, without limitation, those required by Sections 302 and 906 of
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and the applicable regulations thereunder that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized
and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, including, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files
or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure and to ensure that material information relating to the Company or the Subsidiaries is made known to them by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which such periodic reports are
being prepared. 
 8. Representations and Covenants of MLV. MLV represents and warrants that it is duly registered as a
broker-dealer under FINRA, the Exchange Act and the applicable statutes and regulations of each state in which the Placement Shares will be offered and sold, except such states in which MLV is exempt from registration or such registration is not
otherwise required. MLV shall continue, for the term of this Agreement, to be duly registered as a broker-dealer under FINRA, the Exchange Act and the applicable statutes and regulations of each state in which the Placement Shares will be offered
and sold, except such states in which MLV is exempt from registration or such registration is not otherwise required, during the term of this Agreement. MLV will comply with all applicable law and regulations, including but not limited to Regulation
M, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including without limitation, the issuance and sale through MLV of the Placement Shares. 
 9. Payment of Expenses. 
 (a) The Company will pay all expenses incident to
the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, including (i) the preparation, filing, including any fees required by the Commission, and printing of the Registration Statement (including financial statements and exhibits) as
originally filed and of each amendment and supplement thereto and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in such number as MLV shall deem necessary, (ii) the printing and delivery to MLV of this Agreement and such other documents as may be
required in connection with the offering, purchase, sale, issuance or delivery of the Placement Shares, 

  
 23 

 
(iii) the preparation, issuance and delivery of the certificates, if any, for the Placement Shares to MLV, including any stock or other transfer taxes and any capital duties, stamp duties or
other duties or taxes payable upon the sale, issuance or delivery of the Placement Shares to MLV, (iv) the fees and disbursements of the counsel, accountants and other advisors to the Company, (v) the fees and expenses of the transfer
agent and registrar for the Common Stock, (vi) the filing fees incident to any review by FINRA of the terms of the sale of the Placement Shares and (viii) the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Placement
Shares on the Exchange. 
 (b) If this Agreement is terminated by MLV in accordance with the provisions of Section 13(a)
hereof, the Company shall reimburse MLV for all of their out-of-pocket expenses relating to such termination, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for MLV. 

10. Conditions to MLV’s Obligations. The obligations of MLV hereunder with respect to a Placement will be subject to the
continuing accuracy and completeness of the representations and warranties made by the Company herein, to the due performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder, to the completion by MLV of a due diligence review reasonably satisfactory to
it in its reasonable judgment, and to the continuing satisfaction (or waiver by MLV in its sole discretion) of the following additional conditions: 
 (a) Registration Statement Effective. The Registration Statement shall have become effective and shall be available for the (i) resale of all Placement Shares issued to MLV and not yet sold by
MLV and (ii) sale of all Placement Shares contemplated to be issued by any Placement Notice. 
 (b) No Material
Notices. None of the following events shall have occurred and be continuing: (i) receipt by the Company of any request for additional information from the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority during the period of
effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the response to which would require any post-effective amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus; (ii) the issuance by the Commission or any other federal or state
governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the
qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Placement Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; or (iv) the occurrence of any event that makes any material statement
made in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any material document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in the Registration Statement, the
Prospectus or documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any materially 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 not misleading and, that in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any materially 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
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 

  
 24 

 (c) No Misstatement or Material Omission. MLV shall not have advised the Company that
the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, contains an untrue statement of fact that in MLV’s reasonable opinion is material, or omits to state a fact that in MLV’s reasonable opinion is material and
is required to be stated therein or is necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. 
 (d) Material Changes.
Except as contemplated in the Prospectus, or disclosed in the Company’s reports filed with the Commission, there shall not have been any material adverse change in the authorized capital stock of the Company or any Material Adverse Effect or
any development that could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect, or a downgrading in or withdrawal of the rating assigned to any of the Company’s securities (other than asset backed securities) by any rating organization or
a public announcement by any rating organization that it has under surveillance or review its rating of any of the Company’s securities (other than asset backed securities), the effect of which, in the case of any such action by a rating
organization described above, that, in each case, in the reasonable judgment of MLV (without relieving the Company of any obligation or liability it may otherwise have), is so material as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the
offering of the Placement Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus. 
 (e) Legal Opinion. MLV
shall have received the opinions of Company Counsel required to be delivered pursuant to Section 7(m) on or before the date on which such delivery of such opinions are required pursuant to Section 7(m). 

(f) Comfort Letter. MLV shall have received the Comfort Letter required to be delivered pursuant to Section 7(n) on or before
the date on which such delivery of such letter is required pursuant to Section 7(n). 
 (g) Representation
Certificate. MLV shall have received the certificate required to be delivered pursuant to Section 7(l) on or before the date on which delivery of such certificate is required pursuant to Section 7(l). 

(h) No Suspension. Trading in the Common Stock shall not have been suspended on the Exchange and the Common Stock shall not have
been delisted from the Exchange. 
 (i) Other Materials. On each date on which the Company is required to deliver a
certificate pursuant to Section 7(l), the Company shall have furnished to MLV such appropriate further information, certificates and documents as MLV may reasonably request. All such opinions, certificates, letters and other documents will be
in compliance with the provisions hereof. The Company will furnish MLV with such conformed copies of such opinions, certificates, letters and other documents as MLV shall reasonably request. 

(j) Securities Act Filings Made. All filings with the Commission required by Rule 424 under the Securities Act to have been filed
prior to the issuance of any Placement Notice hereunder shall have been made within the applicable time period prescribed for such filing by Rule 424. 

  
 25 

 (k) Approval for Listing. The Company shall, to the extent required by the Exchange,
have filed an application for listing of the Placement Shares on the Exchange at, or prior to, the issuance of any Placement Notice. 
 (l) No Termination Event. There shall not have occurred any event that would permit MLV to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13(a). 

11. Indemnification and Contribution. 
 (a) Company Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless MLV, its partners, members, directors, officers, employees and each person, if any, who controls MLV within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act as follows: 
 (i) against any and all
loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, joint or several, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment
thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact included in any related Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; 
 (ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and
expense whatsoever, as incurred, joint or several, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever
based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that (subject to Section 11(d) below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company, which consent shall not
unreasonably be delayed or withheld; and 
 (iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the reasonable
documented fees and disbursements of counsel), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim
whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above, 

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out
of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made solely in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by MLV expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment
thereto), or in any related Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto). 
 (b)
MLV Indemnification. MLV agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its directors and each officer of the Company who signed the Registration 

  
 26 

 
Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all loss,
liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in Section 11(a), as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or
any amendments thereto) or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to MLV and furnished to the Company in writing by MLV expressly for use therein. 

(c) Procedure. Any party that proposes to assert the right to be indemnified under this Section 11 will, promptly after
receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party or parties under this Section 11, notify each such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action,
enclosing a copy of all papers served, but the omission so to notify such indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from (i) any liability that it might have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 11
and (ii) any liability that it may have to any indemnified party under the foregoing provision of this Section 11 unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses by the
indemnifying party. If any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of its commencement, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it elects by delivering
written notice to the indemnified party promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of the action from the indemnified party, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense of the action, with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense, the indemnifying party will not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal or other
expenses except as provided below and except for the reasonable costs of investigation subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense. The indemnified party will have the right to employ its own counsel in any such
action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such counsel will be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the employment of counsel by the indemnified party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party,
(2) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party,
(3) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of
such action on behalf of the indemnified party) or (4) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel to assume the defense of such action within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the action, in each of
which cases the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties. It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related
proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one separate firm admitted to practice in such jurisdiction at any one time for all such indemnified party or parties. All such
fees, disbursements and other charges will be reimbursed by the indemnifying party within a reasonable period after the indemnifying party receives a written invoice relating to fees, disbursements and other charges in reasonable detail. An
indemnifying party will not, in any event, be liable for any settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent. No 

  
 27 

 
indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of each indemnified party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or
proceeding relating to the matters contemplated by this Section 11 (whether or not any indemnified party is a party thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (1) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party
from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (2) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 

(d) Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided
for in the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 11 is applicable in accordance with its terms but for any reason is held to be unavailable from the Company or MLV, the Company and MLV will contribute to the total losses, claims, liabilities,
expenses and damages (including any investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted, but after deducting any contribution
received by the Company from persons other than MLV, such as persons who control the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, officers of the Company who signed the Registration Statement and directors of the Company, who also may be liable
for contribution) to which the Company and MLV may be subject in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and MLV on the other hand. The relative benefits received by the
Company on the one hand and MLV on the other hand shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the sale of the Placement Shares (net of the commissions paid to MLV but before deducting expenses) received by the Company
bear to the total compensation received by MLV (before deducting expenses) from the sale of Placement Shares on behalf of the Company. If, but only if, the allocation provided by the foregoing sentence is not permitted by applicable law, the
allocation of contribution shall be made in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in the foregoing sentence but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and MLV, on the other hand,
with respect to the statements or omission that resulted in such loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations with respect to such offering. Such relative fault shall
be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or MLV, the intent of the
parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and MLV agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 11(d) were
to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim,
liability, expense, or damage, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 11(d) shall be deemed to include, for the purpose of this Section 11(d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified
party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim to the extent consistent with Section 11(c) hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11(d), MLV shall not be required to contribute any
amount in excess of the commissions received by it under this Agreement and no person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who
was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 11(d), any person who 

  
 28 

 
controls a party to this Agreement within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any officers, directors, partners, employees or agents of MLV, will have the same rights to contribution as that
party, and each officer and director of the Company who signed the Registration Statement will have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the provisions hereof. Any party entitled to contribution, promptly after
receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made under this Section 11(d), will notify any such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission
to so notify will not relieve that party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have under this Section 11(d) except to the extent that the failure to so notify such other party materially
prejudiced the substantive rights or defenses of the party from whom contribution is sought. Except for a settlement entered into pursuant to the last sentence of Section 11(c) hereof, no party will be liable for contribution with respect to
any action or claim settled without its written consent if such consent is required pursuant to Section 11(c) hereof. 

12. Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in Section 11 of
this Agreement and all representations and warranties of the Company herein or in certificates delivered pursuant hereto, or of MLV herein, shall survive, as of their respective dates, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of
MLV, any controlling persons, or the Company (or any of their respective officers, directors or controlling persons), (ii) delivery and acceptance of the Placement Shares and payment therefor or (iii) any termination of this Agreement.

 13. Termination. 
 (a) MLV may terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Company, as hereinafter specified at any time (1) if there has been, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the date as of which
information is given in the Prospectus, any Material Adverse Effect, or any development that has occurred that is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect has occurred or, in the sole judgment of MLV, is so material and adverse and makes
it impractical or inadvisable to market the Placement Shares or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Placement Shares, (2) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States or the international
financial markets, any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, in each case the
effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of MLV, impracticabe or inadvisable to market the Placement Shares or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Placement Shares, (3) if trading in the Common Stock has been suspended or
limited by the Commission or the Exchange, or if trading generally on the Exchange has been suspended or limited, or minimum prices for trading have been fixed on the Exchange, (4) if any suspension of trading of any securities of the Company
on any exchange or in the over-the-counter market shall have occurred and be continuing, (5) if a major disruption of securities settlements or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred and be continuing, or (6) if a
banking moratorium has been declared by either U.S. Federal or New York authorities. Any such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 9 (Payment of Expenses), Section 11
(Indemnification and Contribution), Section 12 (Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery), Section 18 (Applicable Law and Time; 

  
 29 

 
Waiver of Jury Trial) and Section 19 (Consent to Jurisdiction) hereof shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such termination. If MLV elects to terminate this Agreement as

or will be created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, irrespective of whether or not MLV has advised or is advising the Company on other matters, and MLV has no obligation to the Company with respect to the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement; 
 (b) it is capable
of evaluating and understanding, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; 
 (c) MLV has not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and it has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax
advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate; 
 (d) it is aware that MLV and its affiliates are engaged in a broad range of
transactions which may involve interests that differ from those of the Company and MLV has no obligation to disclose such interests and transactions to the Company by virtue of any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship or otherwise; and

 (e) it waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims it may have against MLV for breach of fiduciary duty or
alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the sale of Placement Shares under this Agreement and agrees that MLV shall not have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to it in respect of such a fiduciary
duty claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on its behalf or in right of it or the Company, employees or creditors of Company, other than in respect of MLV’s obligations under this Agreement and to keep information provided by
the Company to MLV and MLV’s counsel confidential to the extent not otherwise publicly-available.
