documents): 
 “THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. SUCH SHARES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, OR PLEDGED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR UNLESS THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHER EVIDENCE SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS COUNSEL THAT SUCH
REGISTRATION IS NOT 

  
 4 

 
REQUIRED.” 
 “THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE TRANSFERRED
ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE STOCKHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.” 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE, INCLUDING A LOCK-UP PERIOD IN
THE EVENT OF A PUBLIC OFFERING, AS SET FORTH IN THE INVESTORS RIGHTS AGREEMENT, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY.” 

(c) The Company shall promptly reissue unlegended certificates at the request of any Holder thereof if the Holder shall have obtained an

1.3 Requested Registration. 

(a) Request for Registration. If the Company shall receive from Initiating Holders a written request that the Company effect any
registration or qualification under the Securities Act covering the registration of Registrable Securities which would have an aggregate offering price of not less than $5,000,000, the Company will: 

(i) Within twenty (20) days of the receipt thereof, deliver written notice of the proposed registration or qualification to all other
Holders; and 
 (ii) as soon as practicable, use its reasonable best efforts to effect such registration, qualification, or compliance
(including, without limitation, the execution of an undertaking to file post-effective amendments, appropriate qualification under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws, and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued
under the Securities Act and any other governmental requirements or regulations) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Registrable Securities as are specified in such
request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request delivered to the Company within twenty (20) days after delivery of such written
notice from the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any such registration, qualification, or compliance pursuant to this Section 1.3: 

(A) Prior to one hundred and eighty (180) days following the effective date of the IPO; 

(B) After the Company has effected two (2) such registrations pursuant to this Section 1.3, such registrations have been
declared or ordered effective, and the securities offered pursuant to such registrations have been sold; 

  
 5 

 (C) During the period starting with the date ninety (90) days prior to the Company’s
estimated date of filing of, and ending on a date one hundred and eighty (180) days after the effective date of, a registration initiated by the Company; provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to
cause such registration statement to become effective and that the Company’s estimate of the date of filing such registration statement is made in good faith; 

(D) In any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting
such registration, qualification or compliance unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act; 

(E) If the Company furnishes to the Initiating Holders a certificate signed by the Company’s chief executive officer stating that in the
good faith judgment of the Board, it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such registration statement to either become effective or remain effective for as long as such registration statement otherwise would be
required to remain effective (a “Determination Certificate”), then the Company’s obligation to use its reasonable best efforts to register, qualify, or comply under this Section 1.3 shall be deferred for a period
not to exceed ninety (90) days from the delivery of the written request from the Initiating Holders; provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than twice in any twelve (12) month period. The
Board’s reason for the deferral of such registration shall include, but shall not be limited to, any action that would (i) materially interfere with a significant acquisition, corporate reorganization, or other similar transaction
involving the Company; (ii) require premature disclosure of material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential; (iii) would adversely impact the initiation of research coverage on the
Company; or (iv) render the Company unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange Act 
 (F) If the
Initiating Holders propose to dispose of shares of Registrable Securities which may be immediately registered on Form S-3 pursuant to a request made under Section 1.4 hereof. 

Subject to the foregoing clauses (A) through (F), the Company shall file a registration statement covering the Registrable Securities so requested to be
registered as soon as practicable after receipt of the request or requests of the Initiating Holders. The registration statement filed pursuant to the request of the Initiating Holders may, subject to the provisions of Sections 1.3(c) and
Section 1.13 hereof, include other securities of the Company with respect to which registration rights have been granted, and may include securities being sold for the account of the Company. 

(b) Underwriting. If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an
underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to Section 1.3(a), the Company shall include such information in the notice delivered to the other Holders pursuant to Section 1.3(a)(i),
and the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to this Section 1.3 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting
to the extent provided herein. A Holder may 

  
 6 

 
elect to include in such underwriting all or a part of the Registrable Securities held by such Holder. 

(c) Procedures. If the Company shall request inclusion in any registration pursuant to this Section 1.3 of securities
being sold for its own account, or if other persons shall request inclusion in any registration pursuant to this Section 1.3, the Initiating Holders shall, on behalf of all Holders, offer to include such securities in the underwriting
and may condition such offer on their acceptance of the applicable provisions of this Section 1 (including without limitation Section 1.14). The Company shall (together with all Holders or other persons proposing to
distribute their securities through such underwriting) enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Company (which managing underwriter
shall be reasonably acceptable to at least a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1.3, if the managing underwriter advises the Initiating Holders in writing that marketing
factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the number of shares to be included in the underwriting or registration shall be allocated as set forth in Section 1.13. If any person who has requested inclusion
in such registration as provided above disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such person shall be excluded therefrom by written notice delivered by the Company or the managing underwriter. Any Registrable Securities and/or other securities
so excluded or withdrawn shall also be withdrawn from registration. 
 (d) Withdrawal of Registration. In the event that the Holders
of a majority of the Registrable Securities for which registration has been requested pursuant to this Section 1.3 determine for any reason not to proceed with the registration at any time before the registration statement has been
declared effective by the Commission (other than a withdrawal by the Holders based upon material adverse information relating to the Company that is different from the information known or available to the Holders requesting registration at the time
of their request for registration under Section 1.3), the requested registration shall count towards the two (2) registration threshold set forth herein. 

1.4 Registration on Form S-3. 

(a) Qualification on Form S-3. After the IPO, the Company shall use its best efforts to qualify for registration on Form S-3 or any
comparable or successor form. To that end the Company shall register (whether or not required by law to do so) its Common Stock under the Exchange Act in accordance with the provisions of the Exchange Act following the effective date of the first
registration of any securities of the Company on Form S-1 or any comparable or successor form or forms. 
 (b) Request for Registration
on Form S-3. After the Company has qualified for the use of Form S-3, if the Company shall receive from Form S-3 Initiating Holders a written request that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3, the Company will: 

(i) promptly deliver written notice of the proposed registration to all other Holders; and 

  
 7 

 (ii) as soon as practicable, use its best efforts to effect such registration, qualification, or
compliance (including, without limitation, the execution of an undertaking to file post-effective amendments, appropriate qualification under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws, and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations
issued under the Securities Act and any other governmental requirements or regulations) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Registrable Securities as are specified in such
request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request delivered to the Company within twenty (20) days after delivery of such written
notice from the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any such registration, qualification, or compliance pursuant to this Section 1.4: 

(A) After the fifth anniversary of the IPO; 

(B) After the Company has effected two (2) such registrations pursuant to this Section 1.4 within the twelve month period
preceding a request from the Form S-3 Initiating Holders. A registration shall not be counted as “effected” for purposes of this Section 1.4(b)(ii)(B) until such time as the applicable registration statement has been declared
effective by the SEC; 
 (C) During the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s estimated date of
filing of, and ending on a date one hundred and eighty (180) days after the effective date of, a registration initiated by the Company; provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such
registration statement to become effective and that the Company’s estimate of the date of filing such registration statement is made in good faith; 

(D) In any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting
such registration, qualification, or compliance unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act; 

(E) If the Company furnishes to the Initiating Holders a Determination Certificate, then the Company’s obligation to use its best
efforts to register, qualify, or comply under this Section 1.4 shall be deferred for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days from the date of delivery of the written request from the Initiating Holders; provided,
however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than twice in any twelve (12) month period. 
 (c) Underwriting;
Procedure. If a registration requested under this Section 1.4 is for an underwritten offering, the provisions of Sections 1.3(b) and 1.3(c) shall apply to such registration. 

1.5 Company Registration. 

(a) Notice of Registration. If the Company shall determine to register any of its securities, either for its own account or the
account of a security holder or holders other 

  
 8 

 
than (A) a registration pursuant to Sections 1.3 or 1.4 hereof, (B) a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, (C) a registration relating solely to a
Rule 145 transaction, or (D) a registration on any registration form that does not permit secondary sales, the Company will: 
 (i)
promptly deliver to each Holder written notice thereof; and 
 (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to include in such registration (and
any related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), except as set forth in Section 1.5(b) below, and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests made by
any Holder and delivered to the Company within twenty (20) days after the written notice is delivered by the Company. Such written request may include all or a portion of a Holder’s Registrable Securities. 

(b) Underwriting; Procedures. If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an
underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 1.5(a)(i). In such event, the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to this Section 1.5 shall be
conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting
shall (together with the Company and the other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into and perform their obligations under an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter selected for
such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1.5, if the managing underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the managing
underwriter may exclude all Registrable Securities from, or limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in, the registration and underwriting, subject to the provisions of Section 1.13. The Company shall so advise all
holders of securities requesting registration, and the number of shares of securities that are entitled to be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated as set forth in Section 1.13. If any person who has requested
inclusion in such registration as provided above disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such person shall be excluded therefrom by written notice delivered by the Company or the managing underwriter. Any Registrable Securities and/or other
securities so excluded or withdrawn shall also be withdrawn from registration. 
 (c) Right to Terminate Registration. The Company
shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 1.5 prior to the effectiveness of such registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. 

1.6 Registration Procedures. In the case of each registration, qualification, or compliance effected by the Company pursuant to this
Section 1, the Company will keep each Holder advised in writing as to the initiation of each registration, qualification, and compliance and as to the completion thereof and, at its expense, the Company will use its reasonable best
efforts to: 
 (a) Prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such securities and use its reasonable
best efforts to cause such registration statement 

  
 9 

 
to become and remain effective for at least ninety (90) days or until the distribution described in the registration statement has been completed, whichever occurs first; provided,
however, that (i) such ninety (90) day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period the Holder refrains from selling any securities included in such registration at the request of an underwriter of common stock
or other securities of the Company, and (ii) in the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 which are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, such ninety (90) day period shall be extended, if
necessary, up to one hundred eighty (180) days to keep the registration statement effective until all such Registrable Securities are sold, however in no event longer than one year from the effective date of the registration statement and
provided that if Rule 415, or any successor rule under the Securities Act, permits an offering on a continuous or delayed basis, and provided further that if applicable rules under the Securities Act governing the obligation to file a post-effective
amendment permit, in lieu of filing a post-effective amendment which (A) includes any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act or (B) reflects facts or events representing a material or fundamental change in the
information set forth in the registration statement, the incorporation by reference of information required to be included in (A) and (B) above shall be contained in periodic reports filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act in the registration statement; 
 (b) Furnish to the Holders participating in such registration and to the underwriters of the
securities being registered such reasonable number of copies of the registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, and such other documents as such underwriters may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public offering of
such securities; 
 (c) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the
prospectus used in connection with such registration statements as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement; 

(d) Notify each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or incomplete in the light of the circumstances then existing, and at the request of any such seller, prepare and furnish to such seller a
reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchaser of such shares, such prospectus shall not include 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 or incomplete in the light of the circumstances then existing; 

(e) Use its reasonable best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities
or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders, provided that the Company shall

any, and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities and (ii) a letter, dated such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent
certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities (to the extent the then-applicable standards of professional
conduct permit said letter to be addressed to the Holders). 
 1.7 Information by Holder. The Holder or Holders of Registrable
Securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder or Holders, the Registrable Securities held by them, and the distribution proposed by such Holder or Holders as the Company may request in
writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification, or compliance referred to in this Section 1, and the refusal to furnish such information by any Holder or Holder shall relieve the Company of its
obligations in this Section 1 with respect to such Holder or Holders. Furthermore, the Company shall have no obligation with respect to any registration requested pursuant to Section 1.3 or Section 1.4 of this
Agreement if, as a result of the application of the preceding sentence, the number of shares or the anticipated aggregate offering price of the Registrable Securities to be included in the registration does not equal or exceed the number of shares

underwriter, if any, and each person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of 

  
 11

based on any untrue statement of a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular, or other document, or any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and such Holders, Other Stockholders, directors, officers, partners, members and stockholders, persons, underwriters, or control persons for any legal or any other expenses reasonably
incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability, proceeding or action, as such expenses are incurred, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is made
in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular, or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use therein, provided, however,
that the obligations of such Holder hereunder shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claims, losses, damages, or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) if such settlement is effected without the consent of such
Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); and 

  
 12 

 
provided that in no event shall the aggregate indemnification and contribution obligations of any Holder under this Section 1.8 exceed the gross proceeds received by such Holder in
such offering, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such Holder. 
 (c) Each party entitled to indemnification under this
Section 1.8 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual
knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct
the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense; provided, however, that
an Indemnified Party (together with all other Indemnified Parties that may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnifying
Party, if representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel
in such action; and provided further that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 1 unless the failure to give such notice is
materially prejudicial to an Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such action. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment
or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Each Indemnified Party
shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.

 (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 1.8 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable
to an Indemnified Party with respect to any claim, loss, damage, liability, or expense referred to therein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnified Party as a result of such claim, loss, damage, liability, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnified party on the other in connection with
the statements or omissions that resulted in such claim, loss, damage, liability, or expense, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the Indemnified Party shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact related to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified Party 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 1.8
were based solely upon the number of entities from whom contribution was requested or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. In no event shall the aggregate indemnification
and contribution obligations of any Holder under this Section 1.8 exceed the 

  
 13 

 
gross proceeds received by such Holder in such offering, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such Holder. 

(e) The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, and liabilities referred to above in this
Section 1.8 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim, subject to the provisions of
Section 1.8(c). No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting
agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control. 

(g) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 1.8 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable
Securities in a registration statement. 
 1.9 Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses, other than underwriting
commissions and taxes, shall be borne by the Company, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of one special counsel for all of the Holders registering securities in any given registration; provided however, that the fees and disbursements
of such special counsel for any registration pursuant to Section 1.4 shall not exceed $15,000 per registration without the Company’s prior written consent. All Selling Expenses relating to securities registered on behalf of the
Holders shall be borne by the holders of the registered securities included in such registration pro rata on the basis of the number of shares so registered. 

1.10 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may at
any time permit the sale of the Restricted Securities to the public without registration after such time as a public market exists for the Common Stock of the Company, the Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to: 

(a) Make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times after the effective date
that the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act; 
 (b) File with the Commission
in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); and 

(c) So long as a Holder owns any Restricted Securities, to furnish to the Holder forthwith upon request a written statement by the Company as
to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 and of any other reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), a copy of the most recent
annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents of the Company and other information in the possession of or 

  
 14 

 
reasonably obtainable by the Company as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing a Holder to sell any such securities without
registration. 
 1.11 Transfer of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register securities granted to any party
hereto under Section 1 may be assigned by a Holder only to a transferee or assignee of not less than fifty thousand (50,000) Registrable Securities (as appropriately adjusted for stock splits and the like), provided that the Company
is given written notice at the time of or within a reasonable time after said assignment, stating the name and address of the transferee or assignee and identifying the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned,
and, provided further, that the assignee, transferee or recipient of such rights assumes in writing the obligations of such Holder under this Section 1, and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement in a form reasonably
satisfactory to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such minimum share assignment requirement shall be necessary for an assignment by a Holder which is (A) a partnership to its partners or former partners in accordance with
partnership interests, (B) a limited liability company to its members or former members in accordance with their interest in the limited liability company, (C) a corporation to its shareholders in accordance with their interests in the
corporation, or (D) an Affiliate of a Holder, or (E) a trust for the benefit of an individual Holder or of the Holder’s Immediate Family. 

1.12 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date hereof, the Company shall not, without the prior written
consent of Holders who in the aggregate hold more than sixty-seven percent (67%) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding that are held by the Series B Holders, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any
securities of the Company that would allow such holder or prospective holder (i) to include such securities in any registration unless, under the terms of such agreement, such holder or prospective holder may include such securities in any such
registration only to the extent that the inclusion of such securities will not reduce the number of the Registrable Securities of the Holders that are included; or (ii) allow such holder or prospective holder to initiate a demand for
registration of any securities held by such holder or prospective holder; provided that this limitation shall not apply to any additional Investor who becomes a party to this Agreement in accordance with Section 4.13. 

1.13 Procedure for Underwriter Cutbacks. In any circumstance in which all of the Registrable Securities and other shares of Common
Stock of the Company with registration rights (the “Other Shares”) requested to be included in a registration on behalf of Holders or Other Stockholders cannot be so included as a result of limitations of the aggregate number
of shares of Registrable Securities and Other Shares that may be so included, the number of shares of Registrable Securities and Other Shares that may be so included shall be allocated among the Holders and Other Stockholders requesting inclusion of
shares pro rata based upon the total number of Registrable Securities or Other Shares held by such Holders and Other Stockholders, respectively; provided, however, that such allocation shall not operate to reduce the aggregate number
of Registrable Securities or Other Shares to be included in such registration if any Holder or Other Stockholder does not request inclusion of the maximum number of shares of Registrable Securities or Other Shares allocated to such Holder or Other
Stockholder pursuant to the above-described procedure, in which case the remaining portion of his allocation shall be 

  
 15 

 
reallocated among those requesting Holders and Other Stockholders whose allocations did not satisfy their requests pro rata on the basis of total number of shares of Registrable Securities and
Other Shares held by such Holders and Other Stockholders, and this procedure shall be repeated until all shares of Registrable Securities and Other Shares which may be included in the registration on behalf of the Holders and Other Stockholders have
been so allocated. The Company shall not limit the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in a registration pursuant to this Agreement in order to include shares of stock issued to founders of the Company or to employees,
officers, directors, or consultants pursuant to the Company’s equity incentive plans, or in the case of registrations under Sections 1.3 or 1.4 hereof, in order to include in such registration securities registered for the
Company’s own account. 
 1.14 Market Stand-off Agreement. Each Holder hereby agrees that it will not, without the prior written
consent of the managing underwriter, during the period commencing on the date of the final prospectus relating to the registration by the Company for its own behalf of shares of its Common Stock or any other equity securities under the Securities
Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 or Form S-3, and ending on the date specified by the Company and the managing underwriter (such period not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days, or such other period as may be requested by the
Company or an underwriter to the extent necessary to comply with applicable regulatory requirements, including, without limitation, the restrictions contained in Rule 2711(f)(4) of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. or NYSE Rule
472(f)(4), or any successor provisions or amendments thereto), offer; pledge; sell; contract to sell; sell any option or contract to purchase; purchase any option or contract to sell; grant any option, right, or warrant to purchase; or otherwise
transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable (directly or indirectly) for Common Stock held immediately before the effective date of the registration
statement for such offering. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 1.14 shall only apply to the Company’s IPO and for one year following the effective date of the Company’s IPO. The foregoing
provisions of this Section 1.14 shall (a) not apply to the sale of any shares to an underwriter pursuant to an underwriting agreement, or the transfer of any shares to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the Holder or an
Immediate Family Member of the Holder, provided that the trustee of the trust agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein, and provided further that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, and (b) be
applicable to the Holders only if all officers and directors of the Company are subject to the same restrictions and the Company uses commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a similar agreement from all stockholders individually owning more than
one percent (1%) of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock (after giving effect to conversion into Common Stock of all outstanding Preferred Stock). The underwriters in connection with such registration are intended third party
beneficiaries of this Section 1.14 and shall have the right, power, and authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto. Each Holder further agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested
by the underwriters in connection with such registration that are consistent with this Section 1.14 or that are necessary to give further effect thereto. The obligations described in this Section 1.14 shall not apply to a
registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-1 or Form S-8 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future, or a registration relating solely to a transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the
future. 

  
 16 

 1.15 Termination of Rights. The rights of any particular Holder to cause the Company to
register securities under Sections 1.3, 1.4 and 1.5 shall terminate with respect to such Holder on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the effective date of the Company’s IPO. 

2. Secondary Offering with Future Financings. Holders of Series B Stock holding at least one-third (1/3) of the Series B Stock
sold pursuant to the Purchase Agreement shall have the right to request that all or a portion of their Series B Stock (for purposes of this Section 2, the “Secondary Shares”) be included in the offering of
securities in any future private, equity financing by the Company, above the capital requirements for the Company with respect to such financing; provided that: (i) the Company will only have an obligation to use its commercially
reasonable efforts, which shall not include the payment by the Company of any fee or the provision of any discount to effect the sale of such Secondary Shares; (ii) that the Secondary Shares will not be subject to the Company Consent Right or
the Company Right of First Refusal (as such rights are provided for in that certain Right of First Refusal, Offer and Co-Sale Agreement being entered into between the Company and certain of the holders of Series B Stock, as amended from time to time
(the “ROFR Agreement”)) or such right of first refusal in favor of the stockholders of the Company in the ROFR Agreement to the extent that the Company does not exercise the Company Right of First Refusal in whole or in part;
and (iii) such request shall not be made more than once, provided that all Secondary Shares requested to be sold are actually sold at the time of the first request. The parties further acknowledge that the Company may use its judgment on the
timing of requesting such new investor to acquire the Secondary Shares, and this Section is not a guarantee that the sale of such Secondary Shares will be consummated if the Purchaser declines to purchase such Secondary Shares. 

3. Affirmative Covenants of the Company. The Company hereby covenants and agrees, so long as any Investor holds (i) five percent
(5%) of the Series B Stock issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (or Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Series B Stock or a combination of such converted Common Stock and Series B Stock), or (ii) two percent (2%) of the
then outstanding capital stock of the Company (on an as converted to Common Stock basis) (in each case, a “Qualifying Investor”), as follows: 

3.1 Financial Information. The Company will furnish to Qualifying Investors the following reports: 

(a) As soon as practicable after the end of each fiscal year, and in any event within 180 days thereafter, audited consolidated balance
sheets of the Company and its subsidiaries, if any, as of the end of such fiscal year, and audited consolidated statements of income and cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries, if any, for such year, prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles consistently applied and setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the previous fiscal year, all in reasonable detail and audited and certified by independent public accountants of national
standing; 
 (b) As soon as practicable, but in any event within 45 days after the end of each of calendar quarter of each fiscal year of
the Company, unaudited consolidated balance sheets of the Company and its subsidiaries, if any, as of the end of such quarterly period, and unaudited consolidated statements of income and cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries, if any, for
such quarterly period, prepared in accordance with generally accepted 

  
 17 

 
accounting principles consistently applied and setting forth in each case in comparative form the figures for the corresponding quarterly periods of the previous fiscal year, subject to changes
resulting from normal year-end audit adjustments, all in reasonable detail, and a summary of how the Company’s year-to-date figures compare to the most recent Board approved budget (including a brief explanation of any material variances),
except such financial statements need not contain the notes required by generally accepted accounting principles; 
 (c) As soon as
practicable, but in any event within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter of each fiscal year of the Company, a statement showing the number of shares of each class and series of capital stock and securities convertible
into or exercisable for shares of capital stock outstanding at the end of the period, the Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of any outstanding securities convertible or exercisable for Common Stock and the exchange ratio or exercise
price applicable thereto, and the number of shares of issued stock options and stock options not yet issued but reserved for issuance, if any, all in sufficient detail as to permit the Qualifying Investors to calculate their respective percentage
equity ownership in the Company, and certified by the chief financial officer or chief executive officer of the Company as being true and correct; 

(d) As soon as practicable after the discovery of any material adverse event, and in any event within ten (10) business days after such
discovery, a written statement outlining such material adverse event and the Company’s proposed response. For purposes hereof, “material adverse event” means any event or condition that is materially adverse to the business,
operations, properties (including intangible properties), financial condition, results of operations, assets and liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole. 

3.2 Operating Plan and Budget. As soon as practicable upon approval or adoption by the Board, but in any event at least 30 days prior
to the end of each fiscal year, the Company will furnish to Qualifying Investors the Company’s monthly budget and operating plan (including projected income statements, cash flows and balance sheets on a monthly basis for the ensuing fiscal
year, together with underlying assumptions and a brief qualitative description of the Company’s plan in support of that budget) for the ensuing fiscal year. 

3.3 Company Confidential Information. Each Investor agrees that such Investor will keep confidential and will not disclose, divulge, or
use for any purpose (other than to monitor its investment in the Company) any confidential information obtained from the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (including notice of the Company’s intention to file a registration
statement), unless such confidential information (a) is known or becomes known to the public in general other than as a result of a breach of this Section 3.3 by or on behalf of such Investor or its Affiliate (including any
disclosure by an Affiliate that would have been a breach of this Agreement if such Affiliate had been a party to this Agreement), (b) is or has been independently developed or conceived by the Investor without use of the Company’s
confidential information, or (c) is or has been made known or disclosed to the Investor by a third party without a breach of any obligation of confidentiality such third party may have to the Company; provided, however, that an Investor may
disclose confidential information (i) to its attorneys, accountants, consultants and other professionals to the extent necessary to obtain their services in connection with monitoring its investment in the Company; (ii) to any prospective
purchaser of any Registrable Securities from such Investor, if such prospective purchaser agrees 

  
 18 

 
to be bound by the provisions of this Section 3.3; (iii) to any existing or prospective Affiliate, partner, member, management company, or stockholder of an Investor or of any
investment vehicle advised or managed by the management company (or an Affiliate thereof) of such Investor (or any employee, legal counsel, accountant, or other representative of any of the foregoing), in the ordinary course of business, provided
that such Investor informs such Person that such information is confidential and directs such Person to maintain the confidentiality of such information; or (iv) as may otherwise be required by law, provided that the Investor promptly notifies
the Company of such disclosure, and such Investor only discloses any confidential information to the extent so required by law, and provides reasonable cooperation with the Company in any request or proceedings by the Company to prevent disclosure
of such information. 
 3.4 Termination of Covenants. The covenants set forth in this Section 3 shall terminate and be of
no further force or effect after the date on which the Company is required to file reports with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. 

4. Miscellaneous. 
 4.1
Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of California, regardless of any laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of law. 

4.2 Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding
upon, the successors, assigns, heirs, executors, and administrators of the parties hereto. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and assigns
any rights, remedies, obligations, or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided by this Agreement. 

4.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Purchase Agreement and the other documents delivered pursuant hereto and thereto constitute
the full and entire understanding and agreement among the parties with regard to the subjects hereof and thereof. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.10 below, neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be amended, waived,
discharged or terminated other than by a written instrument signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination is sought, unless otherwise provided. 

4.4 Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be mailed by
registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or otherwise delivered by hand or by messenger, addressed (a) if to an Investor, addressed to such Investor as set forth on Exhibit A, or at such other address,
facsimile number or email as such Investor shall have furnished to the Company in writing in accordance with this Section, or (b) if to any other holder of any Shares, at such address as such holder shall have furnished the Company in writing,
or, until any such holder so furnishes an address to the Company, then to the address of the last holder of such Shares who has so furnished an address in writing to the Company, or (c) if to the Company, at its address set forth on the
signature page of this Agreement addressed to the attention of the Corporate Secretary, or at such other address 

  
 19 

 
as the Company shall have furnished in writing to the Investors in accordance with this Section. Unless specifically stated otherwise, if notice is provided by mail, it shall be deemed to be
delivered upon proper deposit in a mailbox, and if notice is delivered by hand or by messenger, it shall be deemed to be delivered upon actual delivery. 

4.5 Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to any Investor upon any breach or
default of the Company under this Agreement shall impair any such right, power, or remedy of such party, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default
thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent, or approval of any kind or character on the part of any
party of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any party of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing or as
provided in this Agreement. All remedies, either under this Agreement or by law or otherwise afforded to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative. 

4.6 Dispute Resolution Fees. If any action at law or in equity is necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement, the
prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees, costs, and disbursements in addition to any other relief to which such party may be entitled. 

4.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and signatures may be delivered by facsimile, each of
which may be executed by less than all parties, each of which shall be enforceable against the parties actually executing such counterparts, and all of which together shall constitute one instrument. 

4.8 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal,
unenforceable, or void, portions of such provision, or such provision in its entirety, to the extent necessary, shall be severed from this Agreement and the balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. 

4.9 Titles and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in
construing or interpreting this Agreement. 
 4.10 Amendment and Waiver. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived
(either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with the written consent of the Company, and any individual Investor or group of Investors holding, in the aggregate, (i) least 65% of the outstanding
Series A Stock, voting together as a class (on an as converted to Common Stock basis); and (ii) at least 67% of the outstanding Series B Preferred Stock. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon
each Investor and the Company. In addition, the Company may waive performance of any obligation owing to it, as to some or all of the Investors, or agree to accept alternatives to such performance, without obtaining the consent of any Investor. 

  
 20 

 4.11 Rights of Investors. Each party to this Agreement shall have the absolute right to
exercise or refrain from exercising any right or rights that such party may have by reason of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the right to consent to the waiver or modification of any obligation under this Agreement, and such party
shall not incur any liability to any other party or other holder of any securities of the Company as a result of exercising or refraining from exercising any such right or rights. 

4.12 Aggregation of Stock. All shares of Preferred Stock and Common Stock of the Company held or acquired by affiliated entities or
persons shall be aggregated for the purpose of determining the availability of any rights under this Agreement. 
 4.13 Additional
Investors. In the event the Company issues additional shares of its Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, any purchaser of such shares of such Series B Preferred Stock, who is not already a party to this Agreement, shall
become a party to this Agreement and shall be deemed to be an “Investor” hereunder upon executing and delivering a counterpart signature page to this Agreement or a joinder thereto. Exhibit A hereto may be updated from time to time
unilaterally by the Company after the date hereof to reflect any such subsequent Investors.

declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable, or void, portions of such provision, or such provision in its entirety, to the extent necessary, shall be severed from this Amendment and the balance of this Amendment shall
be enforceable in accordance with its terms. 
 5.4 Titles and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Amendment are used
for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Amendment.

Registrable Securities held by the Series B Holders, voting together as a class on an as converted to Common Stock basis. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon each Investor and the Company. The

State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of 

  
 6 

 
the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. In furtherance of the foregoing, the internal laws of the State of Delaware shall control the interpretation and construction of

of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any claim that (A) the Action in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such Action is improper or
(C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each of the parties further agrees that no party to this Agreement shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in
