 Section 2. Demand Registrations. 
 2.1(a) Demand Registration. Subject to Sections 2.1(c) and 3 hereof, at any time after 18 months after the closing date of the IPO, each Holder may deliver to the Company a written notice (a
“Demand Registration Notice”) informing the Company of such Holder’s desire to have some or all of their Registrable Shares registered for sale by the Company (a “Demand Registration”). Each Demand Registration
Notice shall specify the number of Registrable Shares to be registered by the Company. Upon receipt of the Demand Registration Notice, if the Company has not already caused the Registrable Shares to be included as part of an existing Registration
Statement and related prospectus that the Company then has on file with, and has been declared effective by, the Commission and which remains in effect and not subject to any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission (in
which event the Company shall be deemed to have satisfied its registration obligation under this Section 2), then the Company will cause to be filed with the Commission as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving the Demand
Registration Notice, but in no event more than ninety (90) days following receipt of such notice, a new Registration Statement and related prospectus that complies as to form in all material respects with applicable Commission rules providing
for the sale by such Holder or group of Holders of the Registrable Shares (the “Demand Registration Statement”), and agrees (subject to Section 2.2 

  

 - 3 - 

 
hereof) to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Demand Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable
following the filing thereof (if it is not an automatically effective Registration Statement). The Company shall give written notice of the proposed filing of the Demand Registration Statement to all Holders of Registrable Shares as soon as
practicable, and each Holder of Registrable Shares who wishes to participate in such Demand Registration Statement shall notify the Company in writing within five (5) Business Days after the receipt by the Holder of the notice from the Company,
and shall specify in such notice the number of Registrable Shares to be included in the Demand Registration Statement. Subject to Section 3 hereof, the Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Demand Registration
Statement continuously effective (including the preparation and filing of any amendments and supplements necessary for that purpose) until the earlier of (i) the date that is two (2) years after the date of effectiveness of the Demand
Registration Statement, (ii) the date on which all of the Registrable Shares covered by such Demand Registration Statement are eligible for sale without registration pursuant to Rule 144 (or any successor provision) under the Securities Act
without volume limitations or other restrictions on transfer thereunder, or (iii) the date on which all Registrable Shares covered by such Demand Registration Statement are no longer Registrable Shares. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may at any time, in its sole discretion and prior to or after receiving a Demand Registration Notice from any
Holder, include all of any Holder’s Registrable Shares or any portion thereof in any Registration Statement, including by virtue of adding such Registrable Shares as additional securities to an existing Registration Statement pursuant to Rule
462(b) under the Securities Act (in which event the Company shall be deemed to have satisfied its registration obligation under this Section 2.1(a) so long as such Registration Statement remains effective and not the subject of any stop
order, injunction or other order of the Commission) (any such Registration Statement, an “Other Registration Statement”). Furthermore, notwithstanding any provision of this Section 2.1(a) to the contrary, the Company
shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to register pursuant to any Demand Registration Statement or Other Registration Statement, along with Registrable Shares that Holders have requested to be included in such Demand Registration Statement
in accordance with this Section 2.1(a), any or all additional Registrable Shares that are outstanding. 
 (b) Offers and
Sales. All offers and sales by a Holder under the Demand Registration Statement shall be completed within the period during which the Demand Registration Statement remains effective and not the subject of any stop order, injunction or other
order of the Commission. Upon notice that such Demand Registration Statement is no longer effective, no Holder will offer or sell the Registrable Shares under the Demand Registration Statement. If directed in writing by the Company, each Holder will
return (at the expense of the Company) all undistributed copies of the prospectus covering the Registrable Shares in its possession, other than permanent file copies in the possession of such Holder’s counsel, upon the expiration of such
period. 
 (c) Limitations on Demand Registration Rights. The Company shall not be obligated to effect any Demand Registration within
six (6) months after (i) the effective date of a previous Demand Registration Statement or (ii) a previous registration under which the Holders had piggy-back rights pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof wherein the Holders were
permitted to register at least 50% of the Registrable Shares requested to be included therein. 
 2.2(a) Piggy-Back Registration
Rights. From and after [—], 2011 (18 months after the closing of the IPO), if the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities by
the Company for its own account or for any of the other security holders of the Company for their account (other than a Demand Registration Statement (in which case the ability of a Holder to participate in such Demand Registration Statement shall
be governed by Section 2.1(a) hereof)), then the Company shall (a) give written notice of such proposed filing and/or 

  

 - 4 - 

 
offering to all Holders of Registrable Shares as soon as practicable but in no event less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the anticipated filing
date of the Registration Statement, which notice shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing underwriter(s), if any, of the
offering, and (b) offer to the Holders of Registrable Shares in such notice the opportunity to register the sale of such number of Registrable Shares as such Holders may request in writing within five (5) Business Days following receipt of
such notice (a “Piggy-Back Registration”). If at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement filed in connection with such
registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register or to delay registration of such securities, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to each Holder of Registrable Shares and, (x) in
the case of a determination not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Shares in connection with such registration, and (y) in the case of a determination to delay registering, shall be permitted to delay
registering any Registrable Shares for the same period as the delay in registering such other securities. The Company shall cause all of the Registrable Shares requested to be included in a non-underwritten registration to be included in such
registration, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the managing underwriter(s) of an Underwritten Offering to permit the Registrable Shares requested to be included in a Piggy-Back Registration on the same terms and conditions as
any similar securities of the Company included therein and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Shares in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All Holders of Registrable Shares proposing to
distribute their securities through a Piggy-Back Registration that involves an underwriter(s) shall (i) enter into an underwriting agreement in reasonable and customary form with the underwriter(s) selected for such Piggy-Back
Registration and (ii) complete and execute all questionnaires, powers-of-attorney, indemnities, opinions and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting agreement.
 (b) Reduction of Offering. If the managing underwriter(s) for a Piggy-Back Registration that is to be an Underwritten Offering advises
the Company and the Holders of Registrable Shares that in their opinion the dollar amount or number of shares of Common Stock or other securities that the Company desires to sell, taken together with shares of Common Stock or other securities, if
any, as to which registration has been demanded pursuant to written contractual arrangements with Persons other than the Holders of Registrable Shares hereunder, the Registrable Shares as to which registration has been requested under this
Section 2.2, and the shares of Common Stock or other securities, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other stockholders of the Company, exceeds the
maximum dollar amount or maximum number of securities that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar
amount or maximum number of securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Threshold”), then the Company shall include in any such registration: 
 (x) if the registration is undertaken for the Company’s account: (i) first, the shares of Common Stock or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum
Threshold; (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Threshold has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the shares of Common Stock or other securities, if any, comprised of Registrable Shares as to which registration has been
requested pursuant to the terms hereof pro rata in accordance with the number of Registrable Shares which such Holders have requested be included in such Underwritten Offering, regardless of the number of Registrable Shares or other
securities held by each such Person (such proportion is referred to herein as “Pro Rata Adjusted”) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Threshold; and (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Threshold has not been
reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the shares of Common Stock or other securities for the account of other Persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights with such
Persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Threshold; and 
  

 - 5 - 

 (y) if the registration is a “demand” registration undertaken at the demand of Persons other
than the Holders of Registrable Shares hereunder, (i) first, the shares of Common Stock or other securities for the account of such demanding Persons that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Threshold; (ii) second, to the extent that
the Maximum Threshold has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the shares of Common Stock or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Threshold; (iii) third, to the extent that
the Maximum Threshold has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the shares of Common Stock or other securities, if any, comprised of Registrable Shares as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the terms
hereof, Pro Rata Adjusted, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Threshold; and (iv) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Threshold has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the shares of Common Stock
or other securities, if any, for the account of other Persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights with such Persons that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Threshold.

 (c) Withdrawal. Any Holder of Registrable Shares may elect to withdraw such Holder’s request for inclusion of Registrable
Shares in any Piggy-Back Registration by giving written notice to the Company of such request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. The Company (whether on its own determination or as the result of a withdrawal by
Persons making a demand pursuant to written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement at any time prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement without thereby incurring any liability to the Holders of Registrable
Shares. Notwithstanding any such withdrawal, the Company shall pay all expenses incurred by the Holders of Registrable Shares in connection with such Piggy-Back Registration as provided in Section 8(a). 
 Section 3. Black-Out Periods. 
 a. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.1(a) or 2.2(a), the Company shall be permitted to postpone the filing of the Registration Statement, and from time to time to require Holders not to sell under the
Registration Statement or to suspend the use or effectiveness thereof, for such times as the Company reasonably may determine is necessary and advisable (but in no event for more than an aggregate of 120 days in any rolling 12-month period
commencing on the date of this Agreement or more than 90 consecutive days, except as a result of a refusal by the Commission to declare any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement effective after the Company has used all commercially
reasonable efforts to cause the post-effective amendment to be declared effective by the Commission, in which case, the Company must terminate the black-out period immediately following the effective date of the post-effective amendment), if any of
the following events shall occur (each such circumstance a “Suspension Event”): (i) a majority of the Board determines in good faith that (A) the offer or sale of any Registrable Shares would materially impede, delay or
interfere with any proposed financing, offer or sale of securities, acquisition, corporate reorganization or other material transaction involving the Company, (B) after the advice of counsel, the sale of Registrable Shares pursuant to the
Registration Statement would require disclosure of non-public material information not otherwise required to be disclosed under applicable law, and (C) (x) the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving the confidentiality of
such transaction, (y) disclosure would have a material adverse effect on the Company or the Company’s ability to consummate such transaction, or (z) such transaction renders the Company unable to comply with Commission requirements,
in each case under circumstances that would make it impractical or inadvisable to cause the Registration Statement (or such filings) to become effective or to promptly amend or supplement the Registration Statement on a post effective basis, as
applicable; or (ii) a majority of the Board determines in good faith, upon the advice of counsel, that it is in the Company’s 

  

 - 6 - 

 
best interest or it is required by law, rule or regulation to supplement the Registration Statement or file a post-effective amendment to the Registration
Statement in order to ensure that the prospectus included in the Registration Statement (1) contains the information required under Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; (2) discloses any facts or events arising after the effective
date of the Registration Statement (or of the most recent post-effective amendment) that, individually or in the aggregate, represents a fundamental change in the information set forth therein; or (3) discloses any material information with
respect to the plan of distribution that was not disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information. Upon the occurrence of any such suspension, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the
Registration Statement to become effective or to promptly amend or supplement the Registration Statement on a post effective basis or to take such action as is necessary to make resumed use of the Registration Statement as soon as possible.

 The Company will provide written notice (a “Suspension Notice”) to the Holders and the Selling Holders’ Counsel, if
any, of the occurrence of any Suspension Event. If as a result of a Suspension Event, the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, each Holder agrees that (i) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the
Registrable Shares under the Registration Statement until the Holder receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which the Company agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and
receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by the Company that it may resume such offers and sales, and (ii) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in the
written notice delivered by the Company unless otherwise required by law or subpoena. If so directed by the Company, each Holder will deliver to the Company (at the expense of the Company) all copies of the prospectus covering the Registrable Shares
at the time of receipt of the Suspension Notice, other than permanent file copies in the possession of such Holder’s counsel. The Holders may recommence effecting sales of the Registrable Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement (or such
filings) following further written notice to such effect (an “End of Suspension Notice”) from the Company, which End of Suspension Notice shall be given by the Company to the Holders and to the Selling Holders’ Counsel, if any,
promptly following the conclusion of any Suspension Event and its effect. 
 b. In connection with any Registration Statement utilized by the
Company to satisfy its obligations under this Agreement, each Holder agrees to cooperate with the Company in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement, and each Holder agrees that it will (i) respond within ten
(10) Business Days to any written request by the Company to provide or verify information regarding the Holder or the Holder’s Registrable Shares (including the proposed manner of sale) that may be required to be included in such
Registration Statement and related prospectus pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Commission, and (ii) provide in a timely manner information regarding the proposed distribution by the Holder of the Registrable Shares and such other
information as may be requested by the Company from time to time in connection with the preparation of and for inclusion in the Registration Statement and related prospectus. 
 c. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, if the Company shall give a Suspension Notice with respect to any Registration Statement
pursuant to this Section 3, the Company agrees that it shall extend the period of time during which such Registration Statement shall be maintained effective pursuant to this Agreement by the number of days during the period from the
date of receipt by the Holders of the Suspension Notice to and including the date of receipt by the Holders of the End of Suspension Notice and provide copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus necessary to resume sales, with respect to each
Suspension Event; provided, that, such period of time shall not be extended beyond the date that Common Stock covered by such Registration Statement are no longer Registrable Shares.

underwriter to consummate the disposition in each such jurisdiction of such Registrable Shares owned by such Holder; provided, however, that the Company shall not be

the same manner as an End of Suspension Notice), (5) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Shares, for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening
of any proceeding for such purpose and (6) of the filing of a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement; 
 (vi) furnish Selling Holders’ Counsel, if any, copies of any comment letters relating to the selling Holders received from the Commission or any other request by the Commission or any state securities authority for amendments or

indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, and the respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives and agents of any such Person, and each Person (a “Controlling Person”), if any, who controls (within the meaning
of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) any of the foregoing Persons, as follows: 
 (i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage, judgment, actions, other liabilities and expense whatsoever (the “Liabilities”), as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in any Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) pursuant to which Registrable Shares were registered under the Securities Act, including all documents incorporated therein by reference, or the omission
or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or 

  

 - 12 - 

 
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
any prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom at such date 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 Liabilities, as incurred, 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 5(d) below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company; and 
 (iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by any indemnified party), 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 subparagraph (i) or (ii) above; 
 provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not
apply to any Liabilities to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Holders expressly for use
in a Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto). 
 b.
Indemnification by the Holders. Each Holder severally, but not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the other selling Holders, and each of their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, representatives
and agents, and each of their respective Controlling Persons, against any and all Liabilities described in the indemnity contained in Section 5(a) hereof, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged
untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any prospectus included therein (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information with respect to
such Holder furnished to the Company by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or such prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto); provided, however, that no such Holder shall be
liable for any claims hereunder in excess of the amount of net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Shares pursuant to such Registration Statement. 
 c. Notices of Claims, etc. Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action
or proceeding commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure so to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially
prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of such action;
provided, however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. In no event shall the indemnifying party or parties be liable for the fees
and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of
the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent 

  

 - 13 - 

 
of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding
by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whosoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 5 (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential
parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) 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.
Indemnification Payments. If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any
settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 5(a)(ii) effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request,
(ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in
accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. 
 e. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this
Section 5 is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any Liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such Liabilities
incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Holders on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in
such Liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. 
 The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the
Holders on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such 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 the Holders and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. 
 The Company and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which
does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 5. The aggregate amount of Liabilities incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 5 shall be deemed to
include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party 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 or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. 
 No Person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 
 For purposes of this Section 5, each Person, if any, who controls the a Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or
Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as a Holder, and each director of the Company, 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 shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.

 Section 6. Market Stand-Off Agreement. Each Holder hereby agrees that it shall not, directly
or indirectly sell, offer to sell (including without limitation any short sale), pledge, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of or
otherwise dispose of or transfer any Registrable Shares or other Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock then owned by such Holder (other than to permitted transferees of the Holders who agree
to be similarly bound) for up to 180 days following the date of an underwriting agreement with respect to an underwritten public offering of the Company’s securities; provided, however, that: 
 a. the restrictions above shall not apply to Registrable Shares sold on the Holders’ behalf to the public in an Underwritten Offering pursuant to a
Registration Statement; 
 b. all officers and directors of the Company then holding Common Stock or securities convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock enter into similar agreements for not less than the entire time period required of the Holders hereunder; and 
 c. the Holders shall be allowed any concession or proportionate release allowed to any (i) officer, (ii) director, (iii) other holder of the Company’s Common Stock that entered into similar
agreements (with such proportion being determined by dividing the number of shares being released with respect to such officer, director or other holder of the Company’s Common Stock by the total number of issued and outstanding shares held by
such officer, director or holder). 
 In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company shall have the right to place restrictive
legends on the certificates representing the securities subject to this Section 6 and to impose stop transfer instructions with respect to the Registrable Shares and such other securities of each Holder (and the securities of every other
Person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end of such period. 
 Section 7. Termination; Survival. The rights
of each Holder under this Agreement shall terminate upon the date that all of the Registrable Shares cease to be Registrable Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations of the parties under Sections 5 and 8 of this Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect following such time. 
 Section 8. Miscellaneous. 
 a. Registration Expenses. The Company shall pay all expenses incident to the performance by the Company of its registration obligations under
Section 2 above, including, without limitation, (i) all expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, printing and distribution of any Registration Statement and prospectus and all amendments and supplements thereto,
(ii) all stock exchange, Commission and state securities registration, listing and filing fees, (iii) all fees and expenses of complying with securities or “blue sky” laws, (iv) all FINRA fees, (v) fees and
disbursements of counsel for the Company and fees and expenses for the independent certified public accountants retained by the Company (including the expenses or costs associated with the delivery of any opinions or comfort letters), (vi) all
internal expenses of the Company (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers performing legal or accounting duties); and (vii) the fees and expenses of any person, including special experts, retained by the Company
in connection with the preparation of any Registration Statement. In connection with each registration initiated hereunder (whether a Demand Registration or a Piggy-Back Registration), the Company shall reimburse the Holders covered by such
registration or sale for the reasonable fees and disbursements of the Selling Holders’ Counsel. Each Holder shall be responsible for the payment of any brokerage and sales commissions, fees and disbursements of the Holder’s counsel,
accountants and other advisors, and any transfer taxes relating to the sale or disposition of the Registrable Shares by such Holder pursuant to this Agreement. The Company shall have no 

  

 - 15 - 

 
obligation to pay any other costs or expenses in the course of the transactions contemplated hereby, including underwriting discounts or selling commissions
attributable to the Registrable Shares being sold by the Holders thereof, which underwriting discounts or selling commissions shall be borne by such Holders. In addition, in an Underwritten Offering, all selling stockholders and the Company shall
bear the expenses of the underwriters, pro rata, in proportion to the respective amount of shares each is selling in such offering. 
 b. Covenants Relating To Rule 144. For so long as the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15 of the Securities Act, the Company covenants that it will file the reports required to be filed by it
under the Securities Act and Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the Commission thereunder. If the Company ceases to be so required to file such reports, the Company covenants that it will upon
the request of any Holder of Registrable Shares (a) make publicly available such information as is necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, (b) deliver such information to a prospective purchaser as is
necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and it will take such further action as any Holder of Registrable Shares may reasonably request, and (c) take such further action that is reasonable in the
circumstances, in each case to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell its Registrable Shares without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (i) Rule 144 under
the Securities Act, as such Rule may be amended from time to time, (ii) Rule 144A under the Securities Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time, or (iii) any similar rules or regulations hereafter adopted by the Commission.
Upon the request of any Holder of Registrable Shares, the Company will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements (at any time after 90 days after the effective date of the first Registration
Statement filed by the Company for an offering of its Common Stock to the general public) and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act), a copy of the most
recent annual and quarterly report(s) of the Company, and such other reports, documents or stockholder communications of the Company, and take such further actions consistent with this Section 8(c), as a Holder may reasonably
request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing a Holder to sell any such Registrable Shares without registration. 
 c. No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company has not entered into and the Company will not after the date of this Agreement enter into any agreement which is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders of Registrable Shares
pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions of this Agreement. The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not and will not for the term of this Agreement in any way conflict with the rights granted to the holders of the
Company’s other issued and outstanding securities under any such agreements. 
 d. Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this
Agreement may be amended or waived at any time only by the written agreement of the Company and the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares; provided, however, that the provisions of this Agreement may not be amended or waived
without the consent of the Holders of all the Registrable Shares adversely affected by such amendment or waiver if such amendment or waiver adversely affects a portion of the Registrable Shares but does not so adversely affect all of the Registrable
Shares; provided, further, that the provisions of the preceding provision may not be amended or waived except in accordance with this sentence. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any such
Holder of any provision or condition of this Agreement must be made in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in writing. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon each
Holder of Registrable Shares and the Company.

for such injuries precisely and that, in the event of any such failure, a Holder may obtain such relief as may be required to specifically enforce the Company’s obligations under Section 2 hereof.

when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
