 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 The undersigned (the “Investor”) hereby

 1. This Amended and Restated Subscription Agreement (this
“Agreement”) is between FNB United Corp., a North Carolina corporation (the “Company”), and the Investor listed on the signature page hereto, and is made as of the date of the Company’s acceptance hereof (the
“Acceptance Date”). 
 2. The Company is proposing to issue and sell to certain investors in a private offering
shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock” or “Common Shares”) at a purchase price of U.S. $0.16 per share (the “Per Share Purchase Price”). The Common Shares are being offered
only to Persons who are accredited investors within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to a private placement exemption from registration
under the Securities Act. 
 3. The Company and the Investor agree that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth
herein, the Investor will purchase from the Company and the Company will issue and sell to the Investor, the number of Common Shares equal to one of the following as indicated on the signature page hereto: (i) 4.99% of the Common Shares
outstanding at the Closing Date after giving effect to the issuance of Common Shares in the Other Private Placements, the TARP Exchange and the Granite Merger but excluding any issuance of Common Shares pursuant to outstanding Company Options and
the TARP Warrant (“Pro Forma Basis”) (rounded down to the nearest whole share) or (ii) the dollar amount subscribed as indicated on the signature page hereto divided by the Per Share Purchase Price (which in no case shall be
greater than 4.99% of the Common Shares outstanding on the Closing Date on a Pro Forma Basis), in each case pursuant to the Terms and Conditions for the Purchase of Common Shares attached hereto as Annex A and incorporated herein by reference as if
fully set forth herein. The Common Shares purchased by the Investor will be delivered in certificated form, registered in the Investor’s name and address as set forth below, and will be released by Registrar and Transfer Company, the
Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”), to the Investor at the Closing, or if uncertificated, the Transfer Agent will register such shares in the name of the Investor and deliver evidence of such registration to the
Investor. 
 4. In agreeing to purchase Common Shares pursuant hereto, the Investor is making the representations and warranties
set forth in the Terms and Conditions for the Purchase of Common Shares, including a representation and warranty that the Investor does not own Common Shares in excess of specified levels as set forth in Section 2.3(h) and has not taken certain
actions regarding a coordinated acquisition as set forth in Section 2.3(k). 

 5. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the
Terms and Conditions for the Purchase of Common Shares. 
 6. This Agreement amends and restates the Subscription Agreement

 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

2.1 Certain Terms.

reasonably be expected to (i) result in a material adverse effect on the assets, liabilities, business, condition (financial or otherwise) or results of operations of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or
(ii) materially impair or delay the ability of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries to perform its or their obligations under this Agreement to consummate the Closing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby; provided,
however, that in determining whether a Material Adverse Effect has occurred under clause (i), there shall be excluded any effect to the extent resulting from (A) actions or omissions of the Company or any Company Subsidiary expressly
required or contemplated by the terms of this Agreement, (B) changes after the date hereof in general economic conditions in the United States, including financial market volatility or downturn, (C) changes after the date hereof affecting

projections or forecasts with regard to the assets, liabilities, business, condition (financial or otherwise) or results of operations of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (but not the underlying causes of such failure);
provided further, however, that any circumstance, event, change, development or effect referred to in clauses (B), (C), (D) and (E) shall be taken into account in determining whether a Material Adverse Effect has
occurred or would reasonably be expected to occur to the extent that such circumstance, event, change, development or effect has a disproportionate effect on the Company and the Company Subsidiaries compared to other participants in the industries
or markets in which the Company and the Company Subsidiaries operate. 
 (b) As used in this Agreement, the term
“Previously Disclosed” (i) with regard to any party, means information set forth on its Disclosure Schedule corresponding or responsive to the provision of this Agreement to which such information relates; provided,
however, that if such information is disclosed in such a way as to make its relevance or applicability to another provision of this Agreement reasonably apparent on its face, such information shall be deemed to be responsive to such other
provision of this Agreement, and (ii) with regard to the Company, includes information publicly disclosed by the Company in (A) the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, as filed by it

factor disclosures contained in such documents under the heading “Risk Factors” and any disclosure of risks included in any “forward-looking statements” disclaimer or other statements that are similarly non-specific and are
predictive or forward-looking in nature). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the mere inclusion of an item in a Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed an admission that such item represents a material exception or material
fact, event or circumstance or that such item has had or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (c) For the avoidance of doubt, the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in this Agreement (i) as of the date of this Agreement are those of the Company and the Company
Subsidiaries, and as of the date of this Agreement none of Granite, Bank of Granite or any of Granite’s other Subsidiaries shall be deemed an Affiliate of the Company or Subsidiary of the Company and (ii) as of the Closing Date for
purposes of this Article 2 are those of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, including Granite, Bank of Granite and any of Granite’s other Subsidiaries; provided, that (i) prior to the Closing, the Company shall be entitled to amend
the Disclosure Schedules to include information included in Granite’s disclosure schedules to the Merger Agreement, and such amendment shall be deemed to amend the Disclosure Schedules for all purposes of this Agreement as of the Closing Date,

disclosures contained in such documents under the heading “Risk Factors” and any disclosure of risks included in any “forward-looking statements” disclaimer or other statements that are similarly non-specific and are predictive
or forward-looking in nature). 
 2.2 Representations and Warranties of the Company. Except as Previously
Disclosed, the Company hereby represents and warrants to the Investor, as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date (except for the representations and warranties that are as of a specific date, which shall be made as of that date)
that: 
 (a) Organization and Authority. Each of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries is a corporation or
other entity duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in all jurisdictions where its ownership or leasing of property or the
conduct of its business requires it to be so qualified except where any failure to be so qualified would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, and has the corporate or other organizational
power and authority to own its properties, rights and assets and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted. The Company has furnished to the Investor correct and complete copies of the articles of incorporation and bylaws (or similar
governing documents) as amended through the date of this Agreement for the Company and the Bank. The Company is duly registered as a bank holding company under the BHC Act. 
 (b) Company Subsidiaries. The Company has Previously Disclosed a true, complete and correct list of all of its subsidiaries as of the date of this Agreement (each, a “Company
Subsidiary” and, collectively, the “Company Subsidiaries”). Except for the Company Subsidiaries, the Company does not own beneficially or of record, directly or indirectly, more than five percent (5%) of any class of
equity securities or similar interests of any corporation, bank, business trust, association or similar organization, and is not, directly or indirectly, a partner in any partnership or party to any joint venture. The Company owns, directly or
indirectly, all of its interests in each Company Subsidiary free and clear of any and all Liens. The deposit accounts of the Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) to the fullest extent permitted by
the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the FDIC thereunder, and all premiums and assessments required to be paid in connection therewith have been paid when due (after giving effect to any applicable
extensions). As of the date of this Agreement, the Company beneficially owns all of the outstanding capital securities and has sole control of the Bank, and as of the Closing Date, the Company will, directly or indirectly, beneficially own all of
the outstanding capital securities and have sole control of the Bank, Granite and the Bank of Granite. 
 (c)
Capitalization. As of the date hereof, the authorized Capital Stock of the Company consists of (i) 150,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $2.50 per share, and (ii) 200,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $10.00 per
share (the “Company Preferred Stock”), 51,500 of which has been designated as “Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A.” As of the close of business on April 7, 2011 (the “Capitalization
Date”), there were 11,424,390 shares of Common Stock outstanding and 51,500 shares of TARP Preferred Stock and no other Company Preferred Stock outstanding. In addition, the Treasury holds a

  
 9 

 
warrant, dated February 13, 2009, to purchase 2,207,143 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $3.50 per share. As of the Closing Date, the authorized Capital Stock of the Company
shall be as set forth on Schedule 2.2(c)(i) (the “Capitalization Update”). As of the Closing Date, after giving effect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the authorized and issued Capital
Stock of the Company and the percentage ownership of the Investors, in each case shall be as set forth on Schedule 2.2(c)(ii). Since the Capitalization Date, except in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby,
including the Investment, the Other Private Placements, the TARP Exchange, the Granite Merger, the repurchase of the Bank Preferred Stock and the Warrant Offering, all as set forth on the Capitalization Update, the Company has not (i) issued or
authorized the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or Company Preferred Stock, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock or Company Preferred Stock, (ii) reserved for issuance any shares of
Common Stock or Company Preferred Stock or (iii) repurchased or redeemed, or authorized the repurchase or redemption of, any shares of Common Stock or Company Preferred Stock. As of the close of business on the Capitalization Date, other than
in respect of the TARP Warrant and awards outstanding under or pursuant to the Benefit Plans in respect of which an aggregate of 1,235,276 shares of Common Stock have been reserved for issuance, no shares of Common Stock or Company Preferred Stock
were reserved for issuance. All of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid, nonassessable and free of preemptive rights. None of the outstanding
shares of Capital Stock or other securities of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries was issued, sold or offered by the Company or any Company Subsidiary in violation of the Securities Act or the securities or blue sky laws of any state or
jurisdiction, or any applicable securities laws in the relevant jurisdictions outside of the United States. No bonds, debentures, notes or other indebtedness having the right to vote on any matters on which the shareholders of the Company may vote
(“Voting Debt”) are issued and outstanding. Section 2.2(c) of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth the following information with respect to each outstanding option to purchase shares of Common Stock (a “Company
Option”) or restricted stock award covering shares of Common Stock (or other right (or unit) covering shares of Common Stock) (“Company Restricted Stock”) under the FNB United Corp. 1993 Stock Compensation Plan and the FNB
United Corp. 2003 Stock Compensation Plan (the “Stock Plans”): (A) the name of each holder of Company Options or Company Restricted Stock; (B) the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Company Option or the
number of shares of Company Restricted Stock held by such holder, and as applicable for each Company Option or Company Restricted Stock, the date of grant, exercise or reference price, number of shares vested or not otherwise subject to repurchase
rights, reacquisition rights or other applicable restrictions as of the date of this Agreement, vesting schedule or schedule providing for the lapse of repurchase rights, reacquisition rights or other applicable restrictions, the type of Company
Option and the Stock Plan or other plan under which such Company Options or shares of Company Restricted Stock were granted or purchased; and (C) whether, in the case of a Company Option, such Company Option is intended to be an Incentive Stock
Option (within the meaning of the Code). The Company has made available to the Investor copies of each form of stock option agreement or stock award agreement evidencing outstanding Company Options or Company Restricted Stock, as applicable, and has
also delivered any other stock option agreements or stock award agreements to the extent there are variations from the applicable form of agreement (it being understood that differences disclosed pursuant to clauses (A) through (C)

  
 10 

 
of the immediately preceding sentence do not constitute variations for this purpose), specifically identifying the holder(s) to whom such variant forms apply. As of the date of this Agreement,
except for (x) the outstanding Company Options described in this Section 2.2(c) and listed on Section 2.2(c) of the Disclosure Schedule and (y) as set forth elsewhere in this Section 2.2(c), the Company does not have and is
not bound by any outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, commitments or agreements of any character calling for the purchase or issuance of, or securities or rights convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, any shares of
Common Stock or Company Preferred Stock or any other equity securities of the Company or Voting Debt or any securities representing the right to purchase or otherwise receive any shares of Capital Stock of the Company (including any rights plan or
agreement). Each Company Option under the Stock Plans (i) was granted in compliance with all applicable Laws and all of the terms and conditions of the Stock Plans pursuant to which it was issued, (ii) has an exercise or reference price
equal to or greater than the fair market value of a share of Common Stock at the close of business on the date of such grant, (iii) has a grant date identical to or following the date on which the Board of Directors or compensation committee
actually awarded such Company Option, (iv) otherwise is exempt from or complies with Section 409A of the Code so that the recipient of such Company Option is not subject to the additional taxes and interest pursuant to Section 409A of
the Code and (v) except for disqualifying dispositions, qualifies for the tax and accounting treatment afforded to such Company Option in the Company’s Tax Returns and the Company’s financial statements, respectively. 

(d) Authorization; No Conflicts; Shareholder Approval. 

(i) The Company has the corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder and
consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. Except for authorization by shareholder approval of the Shareholder Proposals as contemplated by this Agreement, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Company and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company and no further approval or authorization is required on the part of the Company or its shareholders. The
Board of Directors, by the unanimous vote of the directors present at the meeting at which such matters were considered, has approved the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Investment, the Other Private Placements, the TARP
Exchange, the Warrant Offering and the Granite Merger, and such approval is sufficient under Article IX, Paragraph (b) of the Company’s articles of incorporation to cause Article IX, Paragraph (a) of the Company’s articles of
incorporation to be inapplicable to the Granite Merger. No other corporate proceedings are necessary for the execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement, the performance by it of its obligations hereunder or the consummation by it of the
transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Company and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Investor, is the valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable
against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting
creditors’ rights or by general equity principles (whether applied in equity or at law). 

  
 11 

 (ii) Neither the execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement nor the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor compliance by the Company with any of the provisions hereof, will (A) violate, conflict with, or result in a breach of any provision of, or constitute a default (or an event which, with
notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) under, or result in the termination of, or result in the loss of any benefit or creation of any right on the part of any third party under, or accelerate the performance required by, or
result in a right of termination or acceleration of, or result in the creation of any liens, charges, adverse rights or claims, pledges, covenants, title defects, security interests and other encumbrances of any kind (“Liens”) upon
any of the properties or assets of the Company or any Company Subsidiary, under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of (1) the articles of incorporation or bylaws (or similar governing documents) of the Company and each Company
Subsidiary or (2) any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, deed of trust, license, lease, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries is a party or by which it may be bound, or to which the
Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries, or any of the properties or assets of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries may be subject, or (B) subject to receipt of the Requisite Shareholder Votes, violate any Law applicable to the
Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties or assets except in the case of clauses (A)(2) and (B) for such violations, conflicts and breaches as would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in
the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (iii) The only votes of the shareholders of the Company required to approve each
of the Share Issuance Proposal and the Articles Amendment Proposal is the approval by a majority of the votes cast on each proposal, provided that a quorum representing a majority of the outstanding votes entitled to vote thereon is satisfied in
each case, pursuant to Section 5635 of the NASDAQ Listing Rules and the bylaws of the Company. The shareholder vote described in the preceding sentence is referred to as the “Requisite Shareholder Votes.” 

(e) Governmental Consents. No Governmental Consents are necessary for the execution and delivery of this Agreement or for
the sale by the Company of the Common Shares to the Investor pursuant to this Agreement. 
 (f) Litigation and Other
Proceedings. There is no pending or, to the Knowledge of the Company, threatened claim, action, suit, arbitration, complaint, charge or investigation or proceeding (each an “Action”) against the Company or any Company Subsidiary
or any of its assets, rights or properties which, if adversely determined, would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, nor is the Company or any Company Subsidiary a party or named as subject to
the provisions of any order, writ, injunction, settlement, judgment or decree of any court, arbitrator or government agency, or instrumentality, except as has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a
Material Adverse Effect. There is no Action by the Company or any Company Subsidiary pending or which the Company or any Company Subsidiary intends to initiate (other than collection claims in the ordinary course of business). No director or officer
of the Company is or has been the subject of any Action involving a claim of violation of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty as of the date hereof. There has not been, and to the Knowledge of
the Company, there is not pending or 

  
 12 

 
contemplated, any investigation by the SEC involving the Company or any current or former director or officer of the Company in his or her capacity as such. 

(g) Financial Statements. Each of the consolidated balance sheets of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and the

Company Subsidiaries have adopted and implemented an anti-money laundering program that contains adequate and appropriate customer identification verification procedures that comply with the USA PATRIOT Act and such anti-money laundering program

COVENANTS 

3.1 Confidentiality. The Investor acknowledges that the information being provided to it in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby is subject to the terms of the confidentiality agreement heretofore entered into between the Investor and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), the terms of which are incorporated herein by
reference. 
 3.2 Avoidance of Control. 
 (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall not, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries not to take any action (including any redemption, repurchase, or
recapitalization of Common Stock, or securities or rights, options or 

  
 31 

 
warrants to purchase Common Stock, or securities of any type whatsoever that are, or may become, convertible into or exchangeable into or exercisable for Common Stock in each case, where the
Investor is not given the right to participate in such redemption, repurchase or recapitalization to the extent of the Investor’s pro rata proportion), that would cause the Investor’s ownership of Voting Securities (together with the
ownership by the Investor’s Affiliates (as such term is used under the BHC Act) of Voting Securities) to increase to an amount in excess of 4.99% of any class of Voting Securities; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
deemed to have violated this Section 3.2(a) if it has given the Investor the opportunity to participate in such redemption, repurchase or recapitalization to the extent of the Investor’s pro rata proportion on the same terms as the other
participants in such redemption, repurchase or recapitalization and the Investor fails to so participate; provided further, however, that if any such redemption, repurchase or recapitalization would result in per share proceeds to the
Investor of less than the Purchase Price, the Company and the Investor will cooperate in good faith to take such actions as are necessary or advisable to negate any adverse effects arising from the Investor’s ownership of Voting Securities
exceeding 4.99%, including without limitation, with respect to the number of shares of Voting Securities the Investor holds in excess of 4.99% of such class of Voting Securities, the exchange of nonvoting capital stock for such Voting Securities or
the Investor’s grant to the Company of a proxy to vote such Voting Securities. 
 (b) The Investor shall not, and
shall cause its Affiliates not to, take, permit or allow any action that would cause (i) any Company Subsidiary to become a “commonly controlled insured depository institution” (as that term is defined for purposes of 12 U.S.C.
§1815(e), as may be amended or supplemented from time to time, and any successor thereto) with respect to any institution that is not a direct or indirect Company Subsidiary or (ii) the Investor’s ownership of Voting Securities
(together with the ownership by the Investor’s Affiliates (as such term is used under the BHC Act) of Voting Securities) to exceed 4.99% of any class of Voting Securities. 

(c) In the event that either party hereto breaches its obligations under this Section 3.2 or believes that it is reasonably
likely to breach such obligations, it shall notify the other party as promptly as practicable and shall cooperate in good faith with such other party to modify any ownership or other arrangements or take any other action, in each case, as is
necessary to cure or avoid such breach. 
 3.3 Reasonable Best Efforts. Upon the terms and subject to the
conditions herein provided, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each of the parties hereto agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to take or cause to be taken all action, to do or cause to be done and to assist and cooperate with the
other parties hereto in doing all things necessary, proper or advisable under Laws to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated hereby, including but not limited to: (a) the satisfaction of the conditions precedent to the
obligations of the parties hereto; (b) the obtaining of applicable Governmental Consents, and consents, waivers and approvals of any third parties; (c) the defending of any claim, action, suit, investigation or proceeding, whether judicial

 3.4 Preemptive Rights. 

(a) Sale of New Securities. After the Closing, until the later of the second anniversary of the Closing Date and the date
on which the Investor no longer owns, in the aggregate together with its Affiliates, either (A) all shares purchased by the Investor pursuant to this Agreement or (B) at least one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the outstanding Common
Shares (before giving effect to any issuances triggering provisions of this Section 3.4), at any time that the Company proposes to make any public or nonpublic offering or sale of any equity (including Common Stock, preferred stock or
restricted stock), or any securities, options or debt that is convertible or exchangeable into equity or that includes an equity component (such as an equity “kicker”) (including any hybrid security) (any such security, a “New
Security”), other than the issuance and sale of securities (i) in connection with the Warrant Offering, (ii) upon conversion of convertible securities issued in compliance with this Section 3.4, (iii) to employees,
officers, directors or consultants of the Company pursuant to employee benefit plans or compensatory arrangements approved by the Board of Directors (including upon the exercise of employee stock options granted pursuant to any such plans or
arrangements), (iv) pursuant to the Rights Plan or any other rights plan, (v) in connection with the exercise of the TARP Warrant, or (vi) as consideration in connection with any bona fide, arm’s length, direct or indirect
merger, acquisition or similar transaction or joint venture, strategic alliance, license agreement or other similar commercial transactions, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Granite Merger, the Investor shall first be afforded the
opportunity to acquire from the Company for the same price (except that, to the extent permitted by Law and the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Company, the Investor may elect to receive such securities in nonvoting form, convertible
into Voting Securities in a widely dispersed offering) and on the same terms as such securities are proposed to be offered to others, up to the amount of such New Securities to be offered in the aggregate required to enable it to maintain its
proportionate equivalent interest in the Common Stock immediately prior to any such issuance of New Securities. The New Securities that the Investor shall be entitled to purchase in the aggregate shall be determined by multiplying (x) the total
number or principal amount of such offered New Securities by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Common Shares held by the Investor (assuming full conversion or exercise of any securities convertible into or exercisable for
Common Stock) and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (assuming full conversion or exercise of any securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock and before giving effect to any issuances
triggering the provisions of this Section 3.4). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Investor have the right to purchase New Securities pursuant to this Section 3.4 to the extent that such purchase would
result in the Investor exceeding the ownership limitations set forth in Section 3.2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the provisions of this Section 3.4 shall not be applicable to any New Securities offered or issued at the
written direction of the applicable banking regulator of the Company or any insured depository institution subsidiary of the Company. 
 (b) Notice. In the event the Company proposes to offer or sell New Securities that are subject to the Investor’s rights under Section 3.4(a), it shall give the Investor written
notice of its intention, specifying the price (or range of prices), anticipated amount of securities, timing and other terms upon which the Company proposes to offer the same (including, in the case of a registered public offering and to the extent
possible, a copy of the prospectus included 

  
 33 

 
in the registration statement filed with respect to such offering), at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the proposed offer, issuance or sale. The Investor shall have ten
(10) Business Days from the date of receipt of such a notice to notify the Company in writing that it intends to exercise its rights provided in this Section 3.4 and as to the amount of New Securities the Investor desires to purchase, up
to the maximum amount calculated pursuant to Section 3.4(a). Such notice shall constitute a nonbinding agreement of the Investor to purchase the amount of New Securities so specified at the price and other terms set forth in the Company’s
notice to it. The failure of the Investor to respond within such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to be a waiver of the Investor’s rights under this Section 3.4 only with respect to the offering described in the applicable
notice. 
 (c) Purchase Mechanism. If the Investor exercises its rights provided in this Section 3.4, the
closing of the purchase of the New Securities with respect to which such right has been exercised shall take place within thirty (30) days after the giving of notice of such exercise; provided that, if such issuance is subject to regulatory
approval, such thirty (30)-day period shall be extended until the expiration of ten (10) Business Days after all such approvals have been received, but in no event later than 90 days from the date of the Company’s initial notice pursuant
to Section 3.4(b). Each of the Company and the Investor agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to secure any regulatory or shareholder approvals or other consents, and to comply with any Law necessary in connection with the offer, sale
and purchase of such New Securities. 
 (d) Failure of Purchase. In the event the Investor fails to exercise its
rights provided in this Section 3.4 within the ten (10) Business Day period described in Section 3.4(b) or, if so exercised, the Investor is unable to consummate such purchase within the time period specified in Section 3.4(c)
because of its failure to obtain any required regulatory or shareholder consent or approval, the Company shall thereafter be entitled (during the period of ninety (90) days following the conclusion of the applicable period) to sell or enter
into an agreement (pursuant to which the sale of the New Securities covered thereby shall be consummated, if at all, within ninety (90) days from the date of said agreement) to sell the New Securities not elected to be purchased pursuant to
this Section 3.4 or that the Investor is unable to purchase because of such failure to obtain any such consent or approval, at a price and upon terms, taken together in the aggregate, no more favorable to the purchasers of such New Securities
than were specified in the Company’s notice to the Investor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such sale is subject to the receipt of any regulatory or shareholder approval or consent or the expiration of any waiting period, the time period
during which such sale may be consummated shall be extended until the expiration of ten (10) Business Days after all such approvals or consents have been obtained or waiting periods expired, but in no event shall such time period exceed one
hundred twenty (120) days from the date of the applicable agreement with respect to such sale. In the event the Company has not sold the New Securities or entered into an agreement to sell the New Securities within said ninety (90)-day period
(or sold and issued New Securities in accordance with the foregoing within ninety (90) days from the date of said agreement (as such period may be extended in the manner described above for a period not to exceed one hundred twenty
(120) days from the date of said agreement)), the Company shall not thereafter offer, issue or sell such New Securities without first offering such securities to the Investor in the manner provided above. 

  
 34 

 (e) Non-Cash Consideration. In the case of the offering of securities for
consideration in whole or in part other than cash, including securities acquired in exchange therefor (other than securities by their terms so exchangeable), the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as
determined by the Board of Directors; provided, however, that such fair value as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors shall not exceed the aggregate market price of the securities being offered as of the date the Board of
Directors authorizes the offering of such securities. 
 (f) Cooperation. The Company and the Investor shall
cooperate in good faith to facilitate the exercise of the Investor’s rights under this Section 3.4, including securing any required approvals or consents. 
 3.5 Most Favored Nation. 
 (a) Investors Other Than
Carlyle and Oak Hill. During the period from April 26, 2011 through the Closing, the Company shall not provide to any investors in the Other Private Placements, or any other capital raising transaction occurring during that period
(excluding Carlyle and Oak Hill), contract terms, rights or benefits more favorable, in form or substance, than those provided herein in connection with the Investment, unless the Investor is also provided with such terms, rights and benefits.

 (b) Carlyle and Oak Hill. During the period from April 26, 2011 through the Closing, the Company shall not
(i) amend the terms of either Investment Agreement to decrease the purchase price per share of Common Stock to be paid by Carlyle and/or Oak Hill or add additional securities as consideration for the payment of such purchase price per share, or
(ii) except as set forth in the Investment Agreements as amended through June 16, 2011, provide or agree to provide any other financial benefit to Carlyle or Oak Hill, unless the Investor is also provided with such terms, rights and
benefits. 
 3.6 Transfer Taxes. On the Closing Date, all stock transfer or other taxes (other than income or
similar taxes) that are required to be paid in connection with the sale and transfer of the Common Shares to be sold to the Investor hereunder will be, or will have been, fully paid or provided for by the Company, and all Laws imposing such taxes
will be or will have been complied with. 
 3.7 Legend. 

(a) The Investor agrees that all certificates or other instruments representing the Common Shares subject to this Agreement shall
bear a legend substantially to the following effect, until such time as they are not required under Section 3.7(b): 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS INSTRUMENT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR SECURITIES
LAWS OF ANY STATE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT WHILE A REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATING THERETO IS IN EFFECT UNDER SUCH ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE 

  
 35 

 
SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT OR SUCH LAWS. 
 (b) Upon request of the Investor, the Company shall promptly cause such legend to be removed from any certificate for any Common Shares to be so transferred if (i) such Common Shares are being
transferred pursuant to a registration statement in effect thereto or (ii) such Common Shares are being transferred pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state laws subject to receipt by the Company
of an opinion of counsel for the Investor reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that such legend is no longer required under the Securities Act and applicable state laws. The Investor acknowledges that the Common Shares have not been
registered under the Securities Act or under any state securities laws and agrees that it shall not sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Common Shares, except in compliance with the registration requirements or exemption provisions of the
Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws. 
 3.8 Registration Rights. 

(a) Registration. 
 (i) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company covenants and agrees that as promptly as practicable after (and in any event no more than thirty (30) days after) the Closing
Date (the “Filing Deadline”), the Company shall have prepared and filed with the SEC one or more Shelf Registration Statements covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities (or, if permitted by the rules of the SEC,
otherwise designate an existing Shelf Registration Statement filed with the SEC to cover such Registrable Securities), and, to the extent the Shelf Registration Statement has not theretofore been declared effective or is not automatically effective
upon such filing, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be declared or become effective as soon as practicable (and in any event no later than the Effectiveness Deadline) and to keep such Shelf
Registration Statement continuously effective and in compliance with the Securities Act and usable for resale of such Registrable Securities until the date that is six months from the Closing Date (the “Registration Termination
Date”) (including by refiling such Shelf Registration Statement (or a new Shelf Registration Statement) if the initial Shelf Registration Statement expires); provided, however, that in the event that the Company breaches its obligations
under Section 3.8(i)(i), the Registration Termination Date shall be extended until the earlier of the time at which the Company cures such breach and the date that is one year from the Closing Date. The Company shall register the resale of the
Registrable Securities on Form S-1 or such other form it is eligible to use. 
 (ii) Any registration pursuant to
Section 3.8(a)(i) shall be effected by means of an offering to be made on a continuous basis under the Securities Act (a “Shelf Registration Statement”) in accordance with the methods and distribution set forth in the Shelf
Registration Statement and Rule 415. 
 (iii) If the Company proposes to register any of its securities, whether or not for its
own account (including, without limitation, pursuant to the exercise by any Lead 

  
 36 

 
Investor of its demand registration rights pursuant to Section 3.13(a)(ii) of the applicable Investment Agreement), other than (x) a registration pursuant to Section 3.8(a)(i),
(y) a registration pursuant to Section 3.13(a)(i) of an Investment Agreement that is not in connection with an underwritten offering or (z) a Special Registration, and the registration form to be filed may be used for the registration
or qualification for distribution of Registrable Securities, the Company shall give prompt written notice to the Investor and all other Holders of its intention to effect such a registration (but in no event less than ten (10) Business Days
prior to the anticipated filing date) and shall include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within five (5) Business Days after the date of the
Company’s notice (a “Piggyback Registration”). Any such person that has made such a written request may withdraw its Registrable Securities from such Piggyback Registration by giving written notice to the Company and the
managing underwriter, if any, on or before the fifth Business Day prior to the planned effective date of such Piggyback Registration. The Company may terminate or withdraw any registration under this Section 3.8(a)(iii) prior to the
effectiveness of such registration, whether or not the Investor or any other Holders have elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration. 
 (iv) If the registration referred to in Section 3.8(a)(iii) is proposed to be underwritten, the Company shall so advise the Investor and all other Holders as a part of the written notice given
pursuant to Section 3.8(a)(iii). In such event, the right of the Investor and all other Holders to registration pursuant to this Section 3.8(a) shall be conditioned upon such persons’ participation in such underwriting and the
inclusion of such persons’ Registrable Securities in the underwriting, and each such person shall (together with the Company and the other persons distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in
customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company. If any participating person disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such Person may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the
Company, the managing underwriter and the Investor. 
 (v) In the event that a Piggyback Registration under
Section 3.8(a)(iii) relates to an underwritten offering and the managing underwriters advise the Company that in their reasonable opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number which can be sold
without adversely affecting the marketability of such offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), the Company shall include in such registration or prospectus only such number of securities that in the reasonable opinion
of such underwriters can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), which securities shall be so included in the following order of priority: (1) first,
solely in the case of a Piggyback Registration under Section 3.8(a)(iii) relating to a primary offering on behalf of the Company, any securities the Company proposes to sell for its own account, (2) second, Common Stock and other
securities of the Company held by the Treasury, (3) third, Registrable Securities of the Holders and securities of all other holders of Common Shares who have requested registration of securities pursuant to the Agreements, pro rata on the
basis of the aggregate number of such securities or shares owned by each such Person, and (4) fourth, any other securities of the Company that have been requested to be so included, subject to the terms of the Transaction Documents. 

  
 37 

 (b) Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection
with any registration, qualification or compliance hereunder shall be borne by the Company. All Selling Expenses incurred in connection with any registrations hereunder shall be borne by the Holders selling in such registration pro rata on the basis
of the aggregate number of securities or shares being sold. 
 (c) Obligations of the Company. The Company shall
use its reasonable best efforts, for so long as there are Registrable Securities outstanding, to take such actions as are under its control to not become an ineligible issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act). In addition, whenever
required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities or facilitate the distribution of Registrable Securities pursuant to an effective Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably practicable:

 (i) file a final prospectus with the SEC, as required by Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act; 

(ii) provide to each Holder a copy of any disclosure regarding the plan of distribution of the selling Holders, in each case, with
respect to such Holder, at least three (3) Business Days in advance of any filing with the SEC of any registration statement or any amendment or supplement thereto that includes such information; 

(iii) prepare and file with the SEC a prospectus supplement with respect to a proposed offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to an
effective registration statement and, subject to this Section 3.8(c), keep such registration statement effective or such prospectus supplement current; 
 (iv) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the applicable registration statement and the prospectus or prospectus supplement used in connection with such registration statement
as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement; 
 (v) furnish to the Holders and any underwriters such number of correct and complete copies of the applicable registration statement and each such amendment and supplement thereto (including in each case
all exhibits) and of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable
Securities owned or to be distributed by them; 
 (vi) 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 or any managing underwriter(s), to keep such registration or qualification in effect for so
long as such registration statement remains in effect, and to take any other action which may be reasonably necessary to enable such seller to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the securities owned by such Holder; provided, that
the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition 

  
 38 

 
thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions; 

(vii) notify each Holder of Registrable Securities 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 applicable prospectus, 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 in light of the circumstances then existing (which notice shall not contain any material non-public information); 
 (viii) give prompt written notice to the Holders (which notice shall not contain any material, non-public information): 
 (A) when any registration statement filed pursuant to Section 3.8(a) or any amendment thereto has been filed with the SEC (except for any amendment effected by the filing of a document with the SEC
pursuant to the Exchange Act) and when such registration statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; 
 (B) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to any registration statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information; 

(C) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement or the initiation of any
proceedings for that purpose; 
 (D) of the receipt by the Company or its legal counsel of any notification with respect to the
suspension of the qualification of the Common Stock for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; 
 (E) of the happening of any event that requires the Company to make changes in any effective registration statement or the prospectus related to the registration statement in order to make the statements
therein not misleading (which notice shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes have been made); and 
 (F) if at any time the representations and warranties of the Company contained in any underwriting agreement contemplated by Section 3.8(c)(xii) cease to be true and correct; 

(ix) use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance or obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any
registration statement referred to in Section 3.8(c)(viii)(C) at the earliest practicable time; 
 (x) upon the occurrence
of any event contemplated by Section 3.8(c)(vii) or 3.8(c)(viii)(E) and subject to the Company’s rights under Section 3.8(d), the Company shall promptly prepare a post-effective amendment to such registration statement or a supplement
to the related prospectus or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the Holders, the prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or 

  
 39 

 
omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; 

(xi) use reasonable best efforts to procure the cooperation of the Company’s transfer agent in settling any offering or sale of
Registrable Securities; 
 (xii) in the event of an underwritten offering pursuant to Section 3.8(a)(i) or
Section 3.8(a)(iii), enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form, scope and substance and take all such other actions reasonably requested by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold in connection therewith
or by the managing underwriter(s), if any, to expedite or facilitate the underwritten disposition of such Registrable Securities, and in connection therewith in any underwritten offering (including making members of management and executives of the
Company available to participate in “road shows,” similar sales events and other marketing activities), (A) make such representations and warranties to the Holders that are selling shareholders and the managing underwriter(s), if any,
with respect to the business of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, and the Shelf Registration Statement, prospectus and documents, if any, incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, in each case, in customary form,
substance and scope, and, if true, confirm the same if and when requested, (B) use its reasonable best efforts to furnish the underwriters with opinions of counsel to the Company, addressed to the managing underwriter(s), if any, covering the
matters customarily covered in such opinions requested in underwritten offerings, (C) use its reasonable best efforts to obtain “cold comfort” letters from the independent certified public accountants of the Company (and, if
necessary, any other independent certified public accounts of any business acquired by the Company for which financial statements and financial data are included in the applicable registration statement) who have certified the financial statements
included in such registration statement, addressed to each of the managing underwriter(s), if any, such letters to be in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in “cold comfort” letters, (D) if an
underwriting agreement is entered into, the same shall contain indemnification provisions and procedures customary in underwritten offerings, and (E) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the Holders of a
majority of the Registrable Securities being sold in connection therewith, their counsel or the managing underwriter(s), if any, to evidence the continued validity of the representations and warranties made pursuant to clause (A) above and to
evidence compliance with any customary conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or other agreement entered into by the Company; 
 (xiii) make available for inspection by a representative of Holders that are selling shareholders, the managing underwriter(s), if any, and any attorneys or accountants retained by such Holders or
managing underwriter(s), at the offices where normally kept, during reasonable business hours, financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the officers, directors and employees of the Company
to supply all information, in each case, reasonably requested by any such representative, managing underwriter(s), attorney or accountant in connection with such Shelf Registration Statement; 

(xiv) cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which the same class of securities issued by the
Company are then listed or, if the same class of securities is not then listed on any securities exchange, use its reasonable best efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities of such class to be listed on the NASDAQ; 

  
 40 

 (xv) if requested by Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being registered
and/or sold in connection therewith, promptly include in a prospectus supplement or amendment such information as the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being registered and/or sold in connection therewith may reasonably request in
order to permit the intended method of distribution of such securities and make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or such amendment as soon as practicable after the Company has received such request; 

(xvi) timely provide to its security holders earning statements satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act
and Rule 158 thereunder; and 
 (xvii) in the event the SEC informs the Company that all of the Registrable Securities then
outstanding cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, the Company agrees to promptly (A) inform each of the Holders thereof and use its commercially
reasonable efforts to file amendments to the initial registration statement as required by the SEC and/or (B) withdraw the initial registration statement and file a new registration statement, in either case covering the maximum number of
Registrable Securities permitted to be registered by the SEC, on Form S-3, Form S-1 or such other form available to the Company to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering; provided, however, that prior to filing such
amendment or new registration statement, the Company shall be obligated to use its reasonable best efforts to advocate with the SEC for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the SEC Guidance, including without
limitation, Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation 612.09. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities or other securities of the Company permitted to
be registered on a particular Registration Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that the Company used diligent efforts to advocate with the SEC for the registration of all or a greater number of Registrable Securities), the number
of Registrable Securities or other shares of Common Stock to be registered on such registration statement will be reduced in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 3.8(a)(v). In the event the Company amends the initial
registration statement or files a new registration statement, as the case may be, under clauses (A) or (B) above, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC, as promptly as allowed by the SEC or SEC
Guidance provided to the Company or to registrants of securities in general, one or more registration statements on Form S-3, Form S-1 or such other form available to the Company to register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not
registered for resale on the initial registration statement, as amended, or the new registration statement. 
 (d)
Suspension of Sales. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a registration statement, prospectus or prospectus supplement contains or may contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omits or may omit to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or that circumstances exist that make inadvisable the use of such registration statement, prospectus or prospectus supplement, each Holder of
Registrable Securities shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement until such Holder has received copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus or prospectus supplement, or until such
Holder is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus and, if applicable, prospectus 

  
 41 

 
supplement may be resumed, and, if so directed by the Company, such Holder shall deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such
Holder’s possession, of the prospectus and, if applicable, prospectus supplement covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice (each such suspension, a “Suspension Period”). No single
Suspension Period shall exceed thirty (30) consecutive days and the aggregate of all Suspension Periods shall not exceed ninety (90) days during any twelve (12) month period. 

(e) Termination of Registration Rights. A Holder’s registration rights as to any securities held by such Holder (and
its Affiliates, partners, members and former members) shall not be available unless such securities are Registrable Securities. 

(f) Furnishing Information. 
 (i) Neither the Investor nor any Holder shall use any free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405) in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of the
Company. 
 (ii) It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to
Section 3.8(c) as to a selling Holder that such selling Holder, and the underwriters, if any, shall furnish to the Company such information regarding themselves, the Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method of disposition of
such securities as shall be required to effect the registered offering of their Registrable Securities. 
 (g)
Indemnification. 
 (i) The Company agrees to indemnify each Holder and, if a Holder is a person other than an
individual, such Holder’s officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and Affiliates, and each Person, if any, that controls a Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act (each, an “Indemnitee”), against any and
all Losses, joint or several, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any
amendments or supplements thereto or any documents incorporated therein by reference or contained in any free writing prospectus (as such term is defined in Rule 405) prepared by the Company or authorized by it in writing for use by such Holder (or
any amendment or supplement thereto), or any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that
the Company shall not be liable to such Indemnitee in any such case to the extent that any such Loss is based solely upon (i) an untrue statement or omission made in such registration statement, including any such preliminary prospectus or
final prospectus contained therein or any such amendments or supplements thereto or contained in any free writing prospectus (as such term is defined in Rule 405) prepared by the Company or authorized by it in writing for use by such Holder (or any
amendment or supplement thereto), in reliance upon and in conformity with information regarding such Indemnitee or its plan of distribution or ownership interests which was furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnitee expressly for use in
connection with such registration statement, including any such preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any such amendments or 

  
 42 

 
supplements thereto, or (ii) offers or sales effected by or on behalf such Indemnitee “by means of” (as defined in Rule 159A) a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in
Rule 405) that was not authorized in writing by the Company. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an Indemnitee and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by
the Holders. 
 (ii) If any proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall promptly
notify the Company in writing, and the Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee and the payment of all reasonable fees and expenses incurred in
connection with defense thereof; provided, that the failure of any Indemnitee to give such notice shall not relieve the Company of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent that it shall be finally determined by
a court of competent jurisdiction that such failure shall have materially and adversely prejudiced the Company in its ability to defend such action. An Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such proceeding and to
participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnitee or Indemnitees unless: (1) the Company has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; (2) the Company shall have
failed promptly to assume the defense of such proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee in any such proceeding; or (3) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both
such Indemnitee and the Company, and such Indemnitee shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest exists if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnitee and the Company; provided, that the Company shall not be liable for the
fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all Indemnitees. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any such proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, effect any settlement of any pending proceeding in respect of which any Indemnitee is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release
of such Indemnitee from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, all fees and expenses of the Indemnitee (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in
connection with investigating or preparing to defend such proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section 3.8(g)(ii)) shall be paid to the Indemnitee, as incurred, within thirty (30) days of written notice thereof to the Company;
provided, that the Indemnitee shall promptly reimburse the Company for that portion of such fees and expenses applicable to such actions for which such Indemnitee is finally judicially determined to not be entitled to indemnification hereunder.

 (iii) If the indemnification provided for in Section 3.8(g)(i) is unavailable to an Indemnitee with respect to any
Losses or is insufficient to hold the Indemnitee harmless as contemplated therein, then the Company, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such Losses in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnitee, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and of the Indemnitee, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other factors, whether the untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material
fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Indemnitee and 

  
 43 

 
the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; the Company and each Holder agree that it would not be just
and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 3.8(g)(iii) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 3.8(g)(i). No
Indemnitee guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from the Company if the Company was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 

(iv) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 3.8(g) are in addition to any liability that the Company
may have to the Indemnitees and are not in diminution or limitation of the indemnification provisions under Article 5 of this Agreement. 
 (h) Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights of the Investor to registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3.8(a) may be assigned by the Investor to a transferee or
assignee of Registrable Securities if (i) either (A) there is transferred to such transferee no less than $10,000,000 in Registrable Securities or (B) such transferee is an Affiliate of the Investor, and (ii) such transfer is
permitted under the terms hereof; provided, however, that the transferor shall, within ten (10) days after such transfer, furnish to the Company written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the number
and type of Registrable Securities that are being assigned. 
 (i) Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making
available to the Investor and Holders the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to:

 (i) make and keep adequate current public information with respect to the Company available, as those terms are understood

Offering), shall be equitably adjusted and/or the shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Investor at the Closing under this Agreement shall be equitably substituted with shares of other stock or securities or property (including cash), in each
case, to provide the Investor with substantially the same economic benefit from this Agreement as the Investor had prior to the applicable transaction. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the Purchase Price
or any component thereof, or the aggregate percentage of shares to be purchased by the Investor, be changed by the foregoing.

or around the same time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to such Persons, including upon exercise of any such options. 
 3.10 Preservation of Tax Benefits Until the first day of a taxable year of the Company as to which the Board of Directors determines that no Tax Benefit of the Company, or any direct or
indirect subsidiary thereof, may be carried forward, the Company shall not take any action with respect to its stock or any “options” (within the meaning of Section 1.382-4(d) of the Treasury Regulations) to acquire its stock
following the Closing, unless the Company shall have first received an unqualified opinion (based on reasonable assumptions and factual representations) of nationally recognized tax counsel or a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue
Service, in either case to the effect that such action would not cause an “ownership change” of the Company (within the meaning of Section 382(g) of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations), taking into account the maximum
reasonably expected effect of the exercise of any outstanding “options” (as defined above). 
 3.11
Granite Merger; Carlyle Investment; Oak Hill Investment. From the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Closing Date or the date this Agreement is terminated: 

(a) the Company shall notify the Investor of (i) any amendment to or waiver of any material terms or conditions of the Merger
Agreement, the Carlyle Investment Agreement or the Oak Hill Investment Agreement, and (ii) any knowledge of the Company of any action or proceeding threatened in writing, instituted or pending relating to the transactions contemplated thereby;
and 
 (b) the Company shall make available to the Investor any amendments, modifications, or supplements to the Merger
Agreement, the Carlyle Investment Agreement and the Oak Hill Investment Agreement and all schedules, annexes and exhibits thereto. 
 3.12 Exchange Listing. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Common Shares to be issued pursuant to this Agreement to be approved for listing on NASDAQ, subject to
official notice of issuance, as promptly as possible and in any event prior to the Closing. 

  
 47 

 3.13 Continued Listing. From and after the Closing, the Company shall take all
steps necessary to prevent the Common Shares from being delisted from NASDAQ, including, without limitation, effecting a reverse stock split of the Common Stock, if necessary, to comply with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5550(a)(1).

the Exchange Act, it will furnish to the Holders and prospective purchasers of the Common Stock designated by the Holders, upon their request, any information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

events or circumstances) unless such claim (or series of related claims arising from the same underlying facts, events or circumstances) involves Losses in excess of $50,000 (the “De Minimis Amount”) (nor shall any such claim or
series of related claims that do not meet the De Minimis Amount be applied to or considered for purposes of calculating the aggregate amount of the Losses by any of the Investor Indemnified Parties for which the Company has responsibility under
clause (ii) of this Section 5.1(b)); and (ii) until the aggregate amount of the Investor Indemnified Parties’ Losses for which the Investor Indemnified Parties are finally determined to be otherwise entitled to indemnification

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, except with respect to claims that the Lead Investors are not
capable of asserting, no claims may be made under Section 5.1(a) by any Investor Indemnified Party unless (i) the Lead Investors have asserted such a claim under the comparable indemnity provisions set forth in Article V of the Investment
Agreements (or shall have otherwise been compensated by the Company in respect of any matter that could have been asserted as such a claim), and (ii) such claims (including the type and amount of recovery sought by such claim) are the same
claims as the Lead Investor claims with recovery to be shared ratably (excluding sharing recovery with any Lead Investor who has already been compensated by the Company).

any Investor Specified Representations) (i) with respect to any claim (or series of related claims arising from the same underlying facts, events or circumstances) unless such claim (or series of related claims arising from the same underlying
facts, events or circumstances) involves Losses in excess of the De Minimis Amount (nor shall any such claim or series of related claims that do not meet the De Minimis Amount be applied to or considered for purposes of calculating the aggregate
amount of the Losses by any of the Company Indemnified Parties for which the Investor has responsibility under clause (ii) of this Section 5.2(b)); and (ii) until the aggregate amount of the Company Indemnified Parties’ Losses
for which the Company Indemnified Parties are finally determined to be otherwise entitled to indemnification under Section 5.2(a) exceeds the Deductible, after which the Investor shall be obligated for all of the Company Indemnified
Parties’ Losses for which the Company Indemnified Parties are finally determined to be otherwise entitled to 

  
 50 

 
indemnification under Section 5.2(a)(1) that are in excess of such Deductible. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Investor shall not be required to indemnify,
defend or hold harmless the Company Indemnified Parties against, or reimburse the Company Indemnified Parties for, any Losses pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(1) in a cumulative aggregate amount exceeding the aggregate purchase paid by the Investor
to the Company pursuant to Section 1.1 hereof (other than Losses arising out of the inaccuracy or breach of any of the Investor Specified Representations). 
 (c) For purposes of Section 5.2(a), in determining whether there has been a breach of a representation or warranty, the parties hereto shall ignore any “materiality” or similar
qualifications. 
 5.3 Notification of Claims. 

(a) Any Person that may be entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”) shall
promptly notify the party or parties liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, including any pending or threatened claim or demand by a
third party that the Indemnified Party has determined has given or could reasonably give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement (including a pending or threatened claim or demand asserted by a third party against the Indemnified
Party) (each, a “Third Party Claim”), describing in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such claim or demand; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice
shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Agreement except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. The parties agree that notices for claims in respect of a breach of
a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement must be delivered prior to the expiration of any applicable survival period specified in Section 6.1 for such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement; provided, that if, prior to such
applicable date, a party hereto shall have notified the other parties hereto in accordance with the requirements of this Section 5.3(a) of a claim for indemnification under this Agreement (whether or not formal legal action shall have been
commenced based upon such claim), such claim shall continue to be subject to indemnification in accordance with this Agreement notwithstanding the passing of such applicable date. 

(b) Upon receipt of a notice of a claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 5.3(a) in respect of a
Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may, by notice to the Indemnified Party delivered within twenty (20) Business Days of the receipt of notice of such Third Party Claim, assume the defense and control of any Third Party Claim, with its
own counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party and at its own expense. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ counsel on its own behalf for, and otherwise participate in the defense of, any such Third Party Claim, but the
fees and expenses of its counsel will be at its own expense unless (1) the employment of counsel by the Indemnified Party at the Indemnifying Party’s expense has been authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party, as applicable,
(2) the Indemnified Party reasonably believes there may be a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in the conduct of the defense of such Third Party Claim, (3) the Indemnified Party reasonably
believes there are legal defenses available to it that are different from, additional to or inconsistent with those available to the 

  
 51 

 
Indemnifying Party, or (4) the Indemnifying Party has not in fact employed counsel to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of the
commencement of such Third Party Claim, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of such Indemnified Party’s counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that in the event any Investor
Indemnified Party is similarly situated with any other “Investor Indemnified Party” under any of the other Agreements with respect to any Third Party Claim, and does not have any conflict of interest with such Person in the conduct of the
defense of such Third Party Claim or have legal defenses available to it that are different from, additional to or inconsistent with those available to such Person, such Investor Indemnified Party shall be required to employ the same counsel as such
Person and the Company shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of only one such counsel for such Investor Indemnified Party and such other Person or Persons (assuming any of clauses (1) through (4) is satisfied). The Indemnified
Party may take any actions reasonably necessary to defend such Third Party Claim prior to the time that it receives a notice from the Indemnifying Party as contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence. The Indemnified Party shall, and shall
cause each of their Affiliates and representatives to, use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the
Indemnified Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), consent to a settlement, compromise or discharge of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim, unless such settlement, compromise, discharge or entry of any
judgment does not involve any statement, finding or admission of any fault, culpability, failure to act, violation of Law or admission of any wrongdoing by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnifying Party shall (i) pay or cause
to be paid all amounts arising out of such settlement or judgment concurrently with the effectiveness of such settlement or judgment (unless otherwise provided in such judgment), (ii) not encumber any of the material assets of any Indemnified
Party or agree to any restriction or condition that would apply to or materially adversely affect any Indemnified Party or the conduct of any Indemnified Party’s business and (iii) obtain, as a condition of any settlement, compromise,
discharge, entry of judgment (if applicable), or other resolution, a complete and unconditional release of each Indemnified Party in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party from any and all liabilities in respect of such
Third Party Claim. An Indemnified Party shall not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any claim or demand for which it is seeking indemnification from the Indemnifying Party or admit to any liability with
respect to such claim or demand without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that such consent shall not be required if the Indemnifying Party has not fulfilled
any material obligations under this Section 5.3(b). 
 (c) In the event any Indemnifying Party receives a notice of
a claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 5.3(a) that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) Business Days following its receipt of such
notice whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement. The Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with and assist the Indemnifying Party in determining the validity of any such claim for
indemnity by the Indemnified Party. 
 5.4 Indemnification Payment. In the event a claim or any Action for
indemnification hereunder has been finally determined, the amount of such final determination 

  
 52 

 
shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party on demand in immediately available funds; provided, however, that any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket
expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party as a result of such claim or Action shall be reimbursed promptly by the Indemnifying Party upon receipt of an invoice describing such costs incurred by the Indemnified Party. A claim or an Action, and the
liability for and amount of damages therefor, shall be deemed to be “finally determined” for purposes of this Agreement when the parties hereto have so determined by mutual agreement or, if disputed, when a final non-appealable
governmental order has been entered into with respect to such claim or Action. 
 5.5 Exclusive Remedies. Each
party hereto acknowledges and agrees that following the Closing, the indemnification provisions hereunder shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the parties hereto for any breach of the representations, warranties or covenants contained in the
this Agreement. No investigation of the Company by the Investor, or of the Investor by the Company, whether prior to or after the date of this Agreement, shall limit any Indemnified Party’s exercise of any right hereunder or be deemed to be a
waiver of any such right. The parties agree that any indemnification payment made pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

hereof. 
 6.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or
circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it has been held

Investors under any Agreement. The decision of the Investor to purchase the Common Shares pursuant to this Agreement has been made by the Investor independently of any other non-affiliated Investors and independently of any information, materials,
statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company, which may have been made or given by any other non-affiliated
Investor or by any agent or employee of any other non-affiliated Investors, and neither the Investor nor any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any other Investors (or any other Person) relating to or arising from any such
information, materials, statement or opinions. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken by the Investor pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute any of the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture
or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that any of the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group, and the Company will not assert any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. The Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an additional
party in any proceeding for such purpose. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement is between the Company and the Investor, solely, and not between the Company and the Investors collectively and not

party hereto (including any person negotiating or executing this Agreement on behalf of a party hereto) shall have any liability or obligation with respect to this Agreement or with respect to any claim or cause of action, whether in tort, contract
or otherwise, that may arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company agrees that, whether or not this Agreement is terminated, to the
extent it has incurred Losses or damages in connection with this Agreement, 

  
 61 

 
(a) the maximum liability of the Investor shall be limited to the Purchase Price payable pursuant to Section 1.1 and (b) the Investor shall not be liable for any special, indirect,
exemplary, consequential or punitive damages in connection with this Agreement.
