 ARTICLE II. REGISTRATION RIGHTS 

2.1. Required Registrations. 

(a) At any time after the date which is six (6) months after the closing of the Company’s first firm commitment underwritten public
offering of shares of Common Stock pursuant to a Registration Statement, a Stockholder or Stockholders holding at least 25% of the Registrable Shares may request, in writing, that the Company effect the registration on Form S-1 (or any successor
form) of Registrable Shares owned by such Stockholders having an aggregate offering price of at least $10,000,000 (based on the market price or fair value at the time of such request). If the Stockholders initiating the registration intend to
distribute the Registrable Shares by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company in their request. Upon receipt of any such request, the Company shall promptly give written notice of such proposed registration to all Stockholders.
Such Stockholders shall have the right, by giving written notice to the Company within ten (10) business days after the Company provides its notice, to elect to have included in such registration such of their Registrable Shares as such
Stockholders may request in such notice of election; provided, however, if the underwriter (if any) managing the offering determines that, because of marketing factors, not all of the Registrable Shares requested to be registered by
all of the Stockholders may be included in the offering, then all Stockholders who have requested registration shall participate in the registration pro rata based upon the number of Registrable Shares which they have requested to be so registered.
Thereupon, the Company shall, as expeditiously as possible, use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration on Form S-1 (or any successor form) of all Registrable Shares which the Company has been requested to so register. 

(b) At any time after the Company becomes eligible to file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form relating to secondary
offerings) and subject to paragraph (c) below, a Stockholder or Stockholders may request the Company, in writing, to effect the registration on Form S-3 (or such successor form), of Registrable Shares having an aggregate offering price of at
least $1,000,000 (based on the public market price at the time of such request). If the Stockholders initiating the registration intend to distribute the Registrable Shares by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company in their
request. Upon receipt of any such request, the Company shall promptly give written notice of such proposed registration to all Stockholders. Such Stockholders shall have the right, by giving written notice to the Company within ten
(10) business days after the Company provides its notice, to elect to have included in such registration such of their Registrable Shares as such Stockholders may request in such notice of election; provided, however, if the
underwriter (if any) managing the offering 

  
 3 

Table of Contents

 
determines that, because of marketing factors, not all of the Registrable Shares requested to be registered by all of the Stockholders may be included in the offering, then all Stockholders who
have requested registration shall participate in the registration pro rata based upon the number of Registrable Shares which they have requested to be so registered. Thereupon, subject to this Section 2.1(b), the Company shall, as expeditiously
as possible, use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration on Form S-3 (or such successor form) of all Registrable Shares which the Company has been requested to so register. The Company shall have the right to reasonably approve the
managing underwriter of any underwritten offering effected pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or this Section 2.1(b). 
 (c) The Company
shall not be required to effect more than two registrations pursuant to Section 2.1(a) and shall not be required to effect more than two registrations pursuant to Section 2.1(b) in any 12-month period; provided, however, that
such obligations shall be deemed satisfied only when a registration statement covering the applicable Registrable Shares shall have (i) become effective or (ii) been withdrawn at the request of the Stockholders requesting such registration
(other than as a result of information concerning the business or financial condition of the Company which is made known to the Stockholders after the date on which such registration was requested). 

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing obligations, if at the time of any request to register Registrable Shares pursuant to this Section 2.1,
the Company is engaged or has plans to engage within 30 days of the time of the request in a registered public offering of securities for its own account or is engaged in any other activity which, in the good faith determination of the
Company’s Board of Directors, would be adversely affected by the requested registration to the material detriment of the Company, then the Company may at its option direct that such request be delayed for a period not in excess of three months
from the effective date of such offering or the date of commencement of such other material activity, as the case may be, such right to delay a request to be exercised by the Company not more than once in any 12-month period. 

2.2. Incidental Registration. 

(a) Whenever the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement at any time and from time to time, it will, prior to such filing, give
written notice to all Stockholders of its intention to do so and, upon the written request of a Stockholder or Stockholders, given within ten (10) business days after the date that the Company provides such notice (which request shall state the
intended method of disposition of such Registrable Shares), the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable Shares which the Company has been requested by such Stockholder or Stockholders to register, to be registered
under the Securities Act to the extent necessary to permit their sale or other disposition in accordance with the intended methods of distribution specified in the request of such Stockholder or Stockholders; provided, however, that
the Company shall have the right to postpone or withdraw any registration effected pursuant to this Section 2.2 without obligation to any Stockholder. 

(b) In connection with any registration under this Section 2.2 involving an underwriting, the Company shall not be required to include any
Registrable Shares in such registration unless the holders thereof accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it. If in the opinion of the managing

  
 4 

Table of Contents

 
underwriter it is desirable because of marketing factors to limit the number of Registrable Shares to be included in the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the
registration only that number of Registrable Shares, if any, which the managing underwriter believes should be included therein; provided, however, that no persons or entities other than the Company, the Stockholders and other persons
or entities holding registration rights shall be permitted to include securities in the offering. If the number of Registrable Shares to be included in the offering in accordance with the foregoing is less than the total number of shares which the
holders of Registrable Shares have requested to be included, then the holders of Registrable Shares who have requested registration and other holders of securities entitled to include them in such registration shall participate in the registration
pro rata based upon their total ownership of shares of Common Stock (giving effect to the conversion into Common Stock of all securities convertible thereinto). If any holder would thus be entitled to include more securities than such holder
requested to be registered, the excess shall be allocated among other requesting holders pro rata in the manner described in the preceding sentence. 

2.3. Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required by the provisions of this Agreement
to use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration of any of the Registrable Shares under the Securities Act, the Company shall: 

(a) as expeditiously as possible prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Shares and use
its reasonable best efforts, including preparing and filing any amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus included therein, to cause that Registration Statement to become and remain effective for 180 days from the
effective date or such lesser period until all such Registrable Shares are sold; 
 (b) as expeditiously as possible furnish to each selling
Stockholder such reasonable numbers of copies of the prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as the selling Stockholder may reasonably request in order to
facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Shares owned by the selling Stockholder; 
 (c) as expeditiously as
possible use its best reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Shares covered by the Registration Statement under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such states as the selling Stockholders shall reasonably request, and do any and
all other acts and things that may be necessary or desirable to enable the selling Stockholders to consummate the public sale or other disposition in such states of the Registrable Shares owned by the selling Stockholders; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required in connection with this paragraph 2.3(c) to qualify as a foreign corporation or execute a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction; 

(d) in the case of an underwritten offering, enter into an underwriting agreement containing such terms as are customarily included in an
underwriting agreement for comparable offerings, including requirements that the Company’s counsel furnish a customary legal opinion and that the Company’s accountants furnish a customary comfort letter. 

  
 5 

Table of Contents

 (e) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all such Registrable Shares covered by such
registration statement to be listed on a national securities exchange or trading system and each securities exchange and trading system (if any) on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed; 

(f) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Shares registered pursuant to this Agreement and provide a CUSIP number for all
such Registrable Shares, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration; 
 (g) promptly make available for inspection
by the selling Stockholders, any managing underwriter(s) participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement, and any attorney or accountant or other agent retained by any such underwriter or selected by the selling
Stockholders, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents, and properties of the Company, and cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees, and independent accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by
any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant, or agent, in each case, as necessary or advisable to verify the accuracy of the information in such registration statement and to conduct appropriate due diligence in connection therewith; 

(h) notify each selling Stockholder, promptly after the Company receives notice thereof, of the time when such registration statement has been
declared effective or a supplement to any prospectus forming a part of such registration statement has been filed; and 
 (i) after such
registration statement becomes effective, notify each selling Stockholder of any request by the SEC that the Company amend or supplement such registration statement or prospectus. 

If the Company has delivered preliminary or final prospectuses to the selling Stockholders and after having done so the prospectus is amended
to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act, the Company shall promptly notify the selling Stockholders and, if requested, the selling Stockholder shall immediately cease making offers of Registrable Shares and return all prospectuses to
the Company. The Company shall promptly provide each selling Stockholder with revised prospectuses and, following receipt of the revised prospectuses, the selling Stockholder shall be free to resume making offers of the Registrable Shares. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each selling Stockholder shall cease making offers or sales pursuant to a “shelf” Registration
Statement during any Postponement Period (not to exceed 90 days in the aggregate in any 12-month period). A “Postponement Period” shall be any period in which there exists at the time material non-public information relating to the
Company disclosure of which, the Company, in its good faith judgment by the Board of Directors reasonably believes: 
 (i)
that the filing thereof at the time requested, or the offering of Registrable Shares pursuant thereto, would materially and adversely affect (A) a pending or scheduled public offering or private placement of the Company’s securities,
(B) an acquisition, merger, consolidation or similar transaction by or of the Company, or (C) pre-existing and continuing negotiations, discussions or pending proposals with respect to any of the foregoing transactions; and 

  
 6 

Table of Contents

 (ii) that the failure to disclose any material information with respect to the
foregoing would cause a violation of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. 
 If, after a Registration Statement becomes effective, the
Company becomes engaged in any activity which, in the good faith determination of the Company’s Board of Directors, involves information that would have to be disclosed in the Registration Statement but which the Company desires to keep
confidential for valid business reasons including any event giving rise to a Postponement Period, then the Company may at its option, by notice to such Stockholders, require that the Stockholders who have included Registrable Shares in such
Registration Statement cease sales of such Registrable Shares under such Registration Statement for a period not in excess of 90 days in the aggregate in any 12-month period. If, in connection therewith, the Company considers it appropriate for such
Registration Statement to be amended, the Company shall so amend such Registration Statement as promptly as practicable and such Stockholders shall suspend any further sales of their Registrable Shares until the Company advises them that such
Registration Statement has been amended. The time periods referred to in this Section 2.3 during which such Registration Statement must be kept effective shall be extended for an additional number of days equal to the number of days during
which the right to sell Registrable Shares was suspended pursuant to this paragraph. 
 2.4. Allocation of Expenses. The Company will
pay all Registration Expenses of all registrations under this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 2.4, the term “Registration Expenses” shall mean all expenses incurred by the Company in complying with this Article II,
including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, exchange listing fees, printing expenses, fees and expenses of counsel for the Company to represent the selling Stockholder(s), state Blue Sky fees and expenses, the expense of any
special audits incidental to or required by any such registration, and the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel for the selling Stockholders selected by the Stockholders holding a majority of the Registrable Shares to be registered, but
excluding underwriting discounts and selling commissions. 
 2.5. Indemnification and Contribution. 

(a) In the event of any registration of any of the Registrable Shares under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will
indemnify and hold harmless the seller of such Registrable Shares and the partners, members, officers, directors and stockholders of each such stockholder, each underwriter of such Registrable Shares, and each other person, if any, who controls such
seller or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such seller, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the Securities
Act, the Exchange Act, state securities or Blue Sky laws or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any
material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Shares were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or
supplement to such Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon the 

  
 7 

Table of Contents

 
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; and the Company will reimburse such seller,
underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by such seller, underwriter or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action;
provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or omission made in such Registration Statement,
preliminary prospectus or final prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company, in writing, by or on behalf of such seller, underwriter or controlling person specifically
for use in the preparation thereof. 
 (b) In the event of any registration of any of the Registrable Shares under the Securities Act
pursuant to this Agreement, each seller of Registrable Shares, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers and each underwriter (if any) and each person, if any, who controls the
Company or any such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company, such directors and officers, underwriter or controlling person
may become subject under the Securities Act, Exchange Act, state securities or Blue Sky laws or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Shares were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained in the Registration Statement,
or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, if
the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to such seller furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such seller specifically for use in connection with the preparation of such
Registration Statement, prospectus, amendment or supplement; provided, however, that the obligations of each such Stockholder hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the proceeds to such Stockholder of Registrable Shares sold
in connection with such registration. 
 (c) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 2.5 (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 be unreasonably withheld); 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 2.5, unless and except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by the failure of the Indemnified Party to provide timely notice. The Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such
party’s expense; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall pay such expense 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 the Indemnified Party and any other party 

  
 8 

Table of Contents

 
represented by such counsel in such proceeding. 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 of such claim or litigation, and no
Indemnified Party shall consent to entry of any judgment or settle such claim or litigation without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party. 

(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either
(i) any holder of Registrable Shares exercising rights under this Agreement, or any controlling person of any such holder, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 2.5 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a
final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this
Section 2.5 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any such selling Stockholder or any such controlling person in circumstances for which indemnification is
provided under this Section 2.5; then, in each such case, the Company and such Stockholder will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportions
so that such holder is responsible for the portion represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its Registrable Shares offered by the Registration Statement bears to the public offering price of all securities offered by such
Registration Statement, and the Company is responsible for the remaining portion; provided, however, that, in any such case, (A) no such holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the proceeds to it of all
Registrable Shares sold by it pursuant to such Registration Statement, and (B) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation, within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act, shall be entitled to contribution from
any person or entity who is not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 
 2.6. Indemnification with
Respect to Underwritten Offering. In the event that Registrable Shares are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement in an underwritten offering pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof, the Company agrees to enter into an underwriting agreement
containing customary representations and warranties with respect to the business and operations of an issuer of the securities being registered and customary covenants and agreements to be performed by such issuer, including, without limitation,
customary provisions with respect to indemnification by the Company of the underwriters of such offering. 

2.7. Information by Holder. Each Stockholder including Registrable Shares in any registration shall
furnish to the Company such information regarding such Stockholder and the distribution proposed by such Stockholder as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or
compliance referred to in this Agreement. 
 2.8. “Stand-Off” Agreement. Each Stockholder, if
requested by the Company and the managing underwriter of an offering by the Company of Common Stock or other securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration Statement, shall agree not to sell publicly or otherwise transfer or dispose of any
Registrable Shares or other securities of the Company held by such 

  
 9 

Table of Contents

 
Stockholder for a specified period of time (not to exceed 180 days, which period may be extended upon the request of the managing underwriter for a period of up to fifteen (15) days if the
Company issues or proposes to issue an earnings or other public release within fifteen (15) days of the expiration of the 180-day lockup period) following the effective date of such Registration Statement; provided, that: 

(a) all officers and directors of the Company, all holders of 1% or more of the Company’s equity securities and all selling stockholders
in such offering enter into similar agreements, and any discretionary modification, waiver or termination of the restrictions of such agreements (including this agreement) by the Company or the managing underwriter shall apply to all persons subject
to such agreements on a pro rata basis, based upon the number of shares held by each subject to such agreements; 
 (b) such agreement shall
only apply to the first Registration Statement covering Common Stock to be sold by or on behalf of the Company to the public in an underwritten offering; and 

(c) such agreement shall not apply to securities acquired in an open market transaction after such Registration Statement is declared
effective. 
 2.9. Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. The Company shall not, without the
prior written consent of Stockholders holding at least a majority of the Registrable Shares held by the Stockholders, enter into any agreement (other than this Agreement) with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company which
would allow such holder or prospective holder to include securities of the Company in any Registration Statement upon terms which are more favorable to such holder or prospective holder than the terms on which holders of Registrable Shares may

 ARTICLE III. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL 

3.1. Right of First Refusal. 

(a) So long as at least twenty percent (20%) of the Shares that have been issued remain outstanding, the Company shall not issue, sell or
exchange, agree to issue, sell or exchange, or reserve or set aside for issuance, sale or exchange, (i) any shares of its Common Stock, (ii) any other equity securities of the Company, including, without limitation, shares of preferred
stock, (iii) any option, warrant or other right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any equity securities of the Company, or (iv) any debt securities convertible into capital stock of the Company (collectively, the
“Offered Securities”), unless in each such case the Company shall have first complied with Article III of this Agreement. 

(b) The Company shall deliver to each Investor a written notice of any proposed or intended issuance, sale or exchange of Offered Securities
(the “Offer”), which Offer shall (i) identify and describe the Offered Securities, (ii) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the Offered
Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (iii) identify the persons or entities, if known, to which or with which the Offered Securities are to be offered, issued, sold or exchanged, and (iv) offer to issue and sell to or exchange with
such Investor (A) that number of the Offered Securities which represents the same percentage of the total Offered Securities as the number of shares of Common Stock into which all of the Company’s capital stock held by such Investor are
convertible represents of the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (including all shares of the Company’s capital stock convertible into Common Stock, counting such shares as if converted (the “Basic Amount”)) and
(B) such additional portion of the Offered Securities as such Investor shall indicate it will purchase or acquire should any other Investor subscribe for less than its Basic Amount (the “Undersubscription Amount”). Each
Investor shall have the right, for a period of 10 business days following delivery of the Offer, to accept the Offer in the manner provided in paragraph 3.1(c) below. The Offer by its terms shall remain open and irrevocable until the earlier of
the expiration of such 10-business-day period or the receipt by the Company of notice from all of the Investors. 
 (c) To accept an Offer,
in whole or in part, an Investor must deliver a written notice to the Company prior to the end of the 10-business-day period of the Offer, setting forth the portion of the Investor’s Basic Amount that such Investor elects to purchase and, if
such Investor shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, the Undersubscription Amount (if any) that such Investor elects to purchase (the “Notice of Acceptance”). If the Basic Amounts subscribed for by all Investors are less
than the total Basic Amounts, then each Investor who has set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of Acceptance shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts subscribed for, the Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed
for; provided, however, that should the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for exceed the difference between the total Basic Amounts and the Basic Amounts subscribed for (the “Available Undersubscription Amount”), each Investor
who has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount shall be entitled to purchase only that portion of the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Undersubscription Amount subscribed for by such Investor bears to the total Undersubscription
Amounts subscribed for by all Investors, subject to rounding by the Board of Directors to the extent it reasonably deems necessary.

Table of Contents

 (d) In the event that Notices of Acceptance are not given by such Investors in respect of all the
Offered Securities, the Company shall have 90 days from the expiration of the 10-day period set forth in Section 3.1(b) hereof, to issue, sell or exchange all or any part of such Offered Securities as to which a Notice of Acceptance has not
been given by the Investors (the “Refused Securities”), but only to the offerees or purchasers described in the Offer and only upon terms and conditions (including, without limitation, unit prices and interest rates) which are not
more favorable, in the aggregate, to the acquiring person or persons or less favorable to the Company than those set forth in the Offer. 

(e) In the event the Company shall propose to sell less than all of the Refused Securities, then each Investor may, at its sole option and in
its sole discretion, reduce the number or amount of the Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance to an amount that shall be not less than the number or amount of the Offered Securities that the Investor elected to purchase pursuant
to Section 3.1(c) hereof, multiplied by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of Offered Securities the Company actually proposes to issue, sell or exchange (including Offered Securities to be issued or sold
to Investors pursuant to Section 3.1(c) hereof prior to such reduction) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the amount of all Offered Securities. In the event that an Investor so elects to reduce the number or amount of Offered
Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not issue, sell or exchange more than the reduced number or amount of the Offered Securities unless and until such securities have again been offered to the Investors in accordance
with Section 3.1(b) hereof. 
 (f) Upon (i) the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all the Refused
Securities or (ii) such other date agreed to by the Company and Investors who have subscribed for over 66.67% of the Offered Securities subscribed for by the Investors, the Investors shall acquire from the Company, and the Company shall issue
to the Investors, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in the Notices of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to Section 3.1(e) hereof if the Investors have so elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer. The
purchase by the Investors of any Offered Securities is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company and the participating Investors of a purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities reasonably satisfactory
in form and substance to the participating Investors and the Company. 
 (g) Any Offered Securities not acquired by the Investors or other
persons in accordance with Section 3.1(d) hereof may not be issued, sold or exchanged until they are again offered to the Investors under the procedures specified in this Section 3.1. 

3.2. Excluded Issuances. The rights of the Investors under this Article III shall not apply to: 

(a) shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to the Company’s Certificate of
Incorporation; 
 (b) shares of Common Stock issued or issuable as a dividend or distribution on Preferred Stock;

 (c) shares of Common Stock issued or issuable by reason of a dividend, stock split, split-up or
other distribution on shares of Common Stock that is covered by Article Fourth, Section B.5.5 or B.5.6 of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as the same may be amended from time to time; 

(d) up to 2,650,000 shares of Common Stock (inclusive of shares of Common Stock or options granted prior to the date of this Agreement under a
plan), or options exercisable therefor (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications, recapitalizations and other similar events affecting such shares), plus such additional number of shares as may be
approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, issued or issuable to officers, directors, consultants and employees of the Company or any subsidiary pursuant to any plan, agreement or arrangement approved by the Board of Directors of the
Company; 
 (e) securities issued solely in connection with the acquisition (whether by merger or otherwise) by the Company or any of its
subsidiaries of all or substantially all of the stock or assets of any other entity; provided, that such offering is approved by the Board of Directors of the Company; or 

(f) securities issued to financial institutions or lessors in connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar
transactions, provided, in each case, such is approved by holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding Shares voting together as a single class on an as-converted to Common Stock basis.

adverse effect on the Company.

 4.5. Other Investments. The Company acknowledges that the
Investor may be in the business of venture capital investing and therefore, may review the business plans and related proprietary information of many enterprises, including enterprises which may have products or services which compete directly or
indirectly with those of the Company. Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude or in any way restrict the Investor from investing or participating in any particular enterprise whether or not such enterprise has products or services which compete
with those of the Company. 
 4.6. Agreements with Employees. The Company shall require each present or
future employee or consultant who is an executive officer of the Company or has duties in the areas of technology, sales or marketing to enter into non-disclosure, non-competition and assignment of intellectual property agreement in such form as has

Incorporation, or elsewhere, as the case may be.

member or trust or partnership established for such family member, or (iii) if such Investor is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity, to any current or former partner (including general partner and limited

5.3. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable, so that the invalidity or

 Execution Version 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements, covenants and considerations contained herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 1. Amendments to the Rights Agreement. 

1.1 Preamble. The Preamble to the Rights Agreement is hereby replaced in its entirety to read as follows: 

“This Second Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement, as amended from time to time (this “Agreement”), is
entered into this 12th day of April, 2016, by and among Arsanis, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and the individuals and entities listed on Exhibit A attached hereto (together with any subsequent investors, or
transferees, who become parties hereto as “Investors” pursuant to Sections 5.2 and 5.7 below, the “Investors”).” 

1.2 Definitions. 
 (a)
The Rights Agreement is hereby amended such that the dollar amount “$28.95” as it appears in the definition of “Initial Public Offering” therein is hereby deleted and replaced with the dollar amount “$9.83.” 

(b) The Rights Agreement is hereby amended so that the defined term “Preferred Stock” set forth therein (or herein) shall include
the Series D Preferred Stock for all purposes thereunder (or hereunder), all terms defined in this Amendment shall apply as if set forth in full in the Rights Agreement, and in the event of any conflict between a term defined in the Rights Agreement
and this Amendment, the meaning set forth in this Amendment shall control. 
 1.3 Excluded Issuances. Section 3.2(d) of the
Rights Agreement is hereby replaced in its entirety to read as follows: 
 “up to 6,433,620 shares of Common Stock (inclusive of shares
of Common Stock or options granted prior to April 24, 2017 under a plan), or options exercisable therefor (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications, recapitalizations and other similar events
affecting such shares), plus such additional number of shares as may be approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, issued or issuable to officers, directors, consultants and employees of the Company or any subsidiary pursuant to any plan,
agreement or arrangement approved by the Board of Directors of the Company;” 
 1.4 Financial Statements. The Rights Agreement

hereby deleted and replaced with the number “60.”

amended such that a new sentence is added to Section 4.4 at the end thereof as follows:

in this Agreement will prevent or limit the Company from fulfilling its obligations under, or the rights of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation pursuant to, that certain letter agreement, dated on or about April 24, 2017, between the
Company and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (the “Letter Agreement”).”

1.6 Other Investments. Section 4.5 of the Rights Agreement is hereby replaced in its entirety to read as follows: 

“The Company acknowledges that the Investor may be in the business of venture capital investing (or in the case of the Bill &
Melinda Gates Foundation, is a charitable trust) and therefore, may review the business plans and related proprietary information of, or other confidential information relating to, many enterprises, including enterprises which may have products or
services which compete directly or indirectly with those of the Company. Nothing in this Agreement will preclude or in any way restrict the Investor from investing or participating in, or granting any funds or support to, any particular enterprise
whether or not such enterprise has products or services which compete with those of the Company.” 
 1.7 Transfer of Rights. The
Rights Agreement is hereby amended so that the first sentence of Section 5.2 is replaced in its entirety to read as follows: 

“This Agreement, and the rights and obligations of each Investor hereunder, may be assigned by such Investor (a) to any person or
entity to which such Investor transfers a number of shares of Preferred Stock equal to not less than five percent (5%) of the total number of shares of Preferred Stock held by such Investor (subject to adjustment for any stock dividend, stock
split, stock split-up, combination or shares or the like) immediately following the Initial Closing (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), (b) if the Investor is an individual, to any family member or trust or partnership established for such
family member, (c) if the Investor is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity, to any current or former partner (including general partner and limited partner), shareholder, member, or other affiliate of the
Investor, or (d) in the case of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, to a charitable trust or other entity a majority of the trustees of which are also trustees of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation; provided that, in
any case, the transferee is not a competitor of the Company as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, and provided further that a private equity fund, venture capital fund or charitable organization shall not be
considered a competitor of the Company for the purposes of this Section 5.2; provided further that such transferee shall provide written notice of such assignment to the Company and agree in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions set
forth herein as if he, she or it were an original Investor and thereafter such transferee shall be deemed an “Investor” for purposes of this Agreement.” 

1.8 Governing Law. The Rights Agreement is hereby amended such that the reference to “Subsection 5.6(b)” as it appears in
Section 5.5(a) thereof is hereby deleted and replaced with the reference to “Subsection 5.5(b),” and such that the reference to “Subsection 5.6(a)” in Section 5.5(b) thereof is hereby deleted and replaced with the

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT 

This Indemnification Agreement (“Agreement”) is made as of
[                    ], 20[        ] by and between Arsanis, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), and [                    ] (“Indemnitee”)[Solely with respect to officers and directors that execute this form of
indemnification agreement on or prior to the Company’s initial public offering: and shall be effective as of the effectiveness of a Registration Statement on Form S-1 relating to the initial
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of shares of the Company’s common stock]. 
  RECITALS 

WHEREAS, highly competent persons have become more reluctant to serve publicly-held corporations as directors or officers or in other
capacities unless they are provided with adequate protection through insurance or adequate indemnification against inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising out of their service to and activities on behalf of the corporation; 

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that, in order to attract and retain qualified
individuals, the Company will attempt to maintain on an ongoing basis, at its sole expense, liability insurance to protect persons serving the Company and its subsidiaries from certain liabilities. Although the furnishing of such insurance has been
a customary and widespread practice among United States-based corporations and other business enterprises, the Company believes that, given current market conditions and trends, such insurance may be available to it in the future only at higher
premiums and with more exclusions. At the same time, directors, officers, and other persons in service to corporations or business enterprises are being increasingly subjected to expensive and time-consuming litigation relating to, among other
things, matters that traditionally would have been brought only against the Company or business enterprise itself. The Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Certificate of
Incorporation”) requires indemnification of the officers and directors of the Company. Indemnitee may also be entitled to indemnification pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”). The Certificate
of Incorporation and the DGCL expressly provide that the indemnification provisions set forth therein are not exclusive, and thereby contemplate that contracts may be entered into between the Company and members of the board of directors, officers
and other persons with respect to indemnification; 
 WHEREAS, the uncertainties relating to such insurance and to indemnification have
increased the difficulty of attracting and retaining such persons; 
 WHEREAS, the Board has determined that the increased difficulty in
attracting and retaining such persons is detrimental to the best interests of the Company and its stockholders and that the Company should act to assure such persons that there will be increased certainty of such protection in the future; 

WHEREAS, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company contractually to obligate itself to indemnify, and to advance expenses on
behalf of, such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that they will serve or continue to serve the Company free from undue concern that they will not be so indemnified; 

WHEREAS, this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Certificate of Incorporation and any resolutions adopted pursuant
thereto, and shall not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder; and 

 [WHEREAS, Indemnitee is a representative of [•] [and its affiliated investment funds] (the
“Fund”), and has certain rights to indemnification and/or insurance provided by the Fund which Indemnitee and the Fund intend to be secondary to the primary obligation of the Company to indemnify Indemnitee as provided herein, with the
Company’s acknowledgement and agreement to the foregoing being a material condition to Indemnitee’s willingness to serve on the Board;] 

WHEREAS, Indemnitee does not regard the protection available under the Certificate of Incorporation and insurance as adequate in the present
circumstances, and may not be willing to serve as an officer or director without adequate protection, and the Company desires Indemnitee to serve in such capacity. Indemnitee is willing to serve, continue to serve and to take on additional service
for or on behalf of the Company on the condition that he be so indemnified. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the
covenants contained herein, the Company and Indemnitee do hereby covenant and agree as follows: 
 Section 1. Services to the
Company. Indemnitee agrees to serve as a [officer] [director] of the Company. Indemnitee may at any time and for any reason resign from such position (subject to any other contractual obligation or any obligation imposed by operation of law), in
which event the Company shall have no obligation under this Agreement to continue Indemnitee in such position. This Agreement shall not be deemed an employment contract between the Company (or any of its subsidiaries or any Enterprise) and
Indemnitee. Indemnitee specifically acknowledges that Indemnitee’s employment with the Company (or any of its subsidiaries or any Enterprise), if any, is at will, and the Indemnitee may be discharged at any time for any reason, with or without
cause, except as may be otherwise provided in any written employment contract between Indemnitee and the Company (or any of its subsidiaries or any Enterprise), other applicable formal severance policies duly adopted by the Board, or, with respect
to service as a director or officer of the Company, by the Certificate of Incorporation, the Company’s By-laws, and the DGCL. The foregoing notwithstanding, this Agreement shall continue in force after
Indemnitee has ceased to serve as an [officer] [director] of the Company, as provided in Section 16 hereof. 
 Section 2.
Definitions. As used in this Agreement: 
 (a) References to “agent” shall mean any person who is or was a director,
officer, or employee of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company or other person authorized by the Company to act for the Company, to include such person serving in such capacity as a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or other official of
another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise at the request of, for the convenience of, or to represent the interests of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company. 

(b) A “Change in Control” shall be deemed to occur upon the earliest to occur after the date of this Agreement of any of the
following events: 

  
 - 2 - 

 i. Acquisition of Stock by Third Party. Any Person (as defined below) is or becomes the
Beneficial Owner (as defined below), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing fifty (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities unless the change in relative Beneficial
Ownership of the Company’s securities by any Person results solely from a reduction in the aggregate number of outstanding shares of securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors; 

ii. Change in Board of Directors. During any period of two (2) consecutive years (not including any period prior to the execution of this
Agreement), individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board, and any new director (other than a director designated by a person who has entered into an agreement with the Company to effect a transaction described in Sections
2(b)(i), 2(b)(iii) or 2(b)(iv)) whose election by the Board or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who
either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the members of the Board; 

iii. Corporate Transactions. The effective date of a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other entity, other than a merger or
consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the
surviving entity or its ultimate parent, as applicable) more than 51% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation and with the power to elect at least a
majority of the board of directors or other governing body of such surviving entity or its ultimate parent, as applicable; 
 iv.
Liquidation. The approval by the stockholders of the Company of a complete liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; and 

v. Other Events. There occurs any other event of a nature that would be required to be reported in response to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of
Regulation 14A (or a response to any similar item on any similar schedule or form) promulgated under the Exchange Act (as defined below), whether or not the Company is then subject to such reporting requirement. 

For purposes of this Section 2(b), the following terms shall have the following meanings: 

(A) “Exchange Act” shall mean the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended from time to time. 

(B) “Person” shall have the meaning as set forth in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act; provided, however,
that Person shall exclude (i) the Company, (ii) any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company, and (iii) any corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the
Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of the Company. 

  
 - 3 - 

 (C) “Beneficial Owner” shall have the meaning given to such term in
Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that Beneficial Owner shall exclude any Person otherwise becoming a Beneficial Owner by reason of the stockholders of the Company approving a merger of the
Company with another entity. 
 (c) “Corporate Status” describes the status of a person who is or was a director, officer, employee
or agent of the Company or of any other corporation, limited liability company, partnership or joint venture, trust or other enterprise which such person is or was serving at the request of the Company. 

(d) “Disinterested Director” shall mean a director of the Company who is not and was not a party to the Proceeding in respect of
which indemnification is sought by Indemnitee. 
 (e) “Enterprise” shall mean the Company and any other corporation, limited
liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise of which Indemnitee is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, trustee, partner, managing member, employee, agent or fiduciary. 

(f) “Expenses” shall include all reasonable attorneys’ fees, retainers, court costs, transcript costs, fees of experts and other
professionals, witness fees, travel expenses, duplicating costs, printing and binding costs, telephone charges, postage, delivery service fees, any federal, state, local or foreign taxes imposed on Indemnitee as a result of the actual or deemed
receipt of any payments under this Agreement, ERISA excise taxes and penalties, and all other disbursements or expenses of the types customarily incurred in connection with prosecuting, defending, preparing to prosecute or defend, investigating,
being or preparing to be a witness in, or otherwise participating in, a Proceeding. Expenses also shall include (i) Expenses incurred in connection with any appeal resulting from any Proceeding, including without limitation the premium,
security for, and other costs relating to any cost bond, supersedeas bond, or other appeal bond or its equivalent, and (ii) for purposes of Section 14(d) only, Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the interpretation,
enforcement or defense of Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement, by litigation or otherwise. The parties agree that for the purposes of any advancement of Expenses for which Indemnitee has made written demand to the Company in accordance
with this Agreement, all Expenses included in such demand that are certified by affidavit of Indemnitee’s counsel as being reasonable shall be presumed conclusively to be reasonable. Expenses, however, shall not include amounts paid in
settlement by Indemnitee or the amount of judgments or fines against Indemnitee. 
 (g) “Independent Counsel” shall mean a law
firm, or a member of a law firm, that is experienced in matters of corporation law and neither presently is, nor in the past five years has been, retained to represent: (i) the Company or Indemnitee in any matter material to either such party
(other than with respect to matters concerning the Indemnitee under this Agreement, or of other indemnitees under similar indemnification agreements), or (ii) any other party to the Proceeding giving rise to a claim for indemnification
hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Independent Counsel” shall not include any person who, under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, would have a conflict of interest in representing either the
Company or Indemnitee in an action to determine Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement. The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of the Independent Counsel referred to above and to fully indemnify such counsel against any
and all Expenses, claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its engagement pursuant hereto. 

  
 - 4 - 

 (h) The term “Proceeding” shall include any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit, claim, counterclaim, cross claim, arbitration, mediation, alternate dispute resolution mechanism, investigation, inquiry, administrative hearing or any other actual, threatened or completed proceeding, whether brought in the right of the
Company or otherwise and whether of a civil, criminal, administrative, legislative, or investigative (formal or informal) nature, including any appeal therefrom, in which Indemnitee was, is or will be involved as a party, potential party, non-party witness or otherwise by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was a director or officer of the Company, by reason of any action taken by him (or a failure to take action by him) or of any action (or
failure to act) on his part while acting pursuant to his Corporate Status, in each case whether or not serving in such capacity at the time any liability or Expense is incurred for which indemnification, reimbursement, or advancement of Expenses can
be provided under this Agreement. If the Indemnitee believes in good faith that a given situation may lead to or culminate in the institution of a Proceeding, this shall be considered a Proceeding under this paragraph. 

(i) Reference to “other enterprise” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise
tax assessed with respect to any employee benefit plan; references to “serving at the request of the Company” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company which imposes duties on, or involves services
by, such director, officer, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the participants
and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Company” as referred to in this Agreement. 

Section 3. Indemnity in Third-Party Proceedings. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 3 if Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or a participant in any Proceeding, other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor. Pursuant to this Section 3, Indemnitee
shall be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law against all Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of
such Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on his behalf in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a
manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and, in the case of a criminal Proceeding had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. The parties hereto intend that this Agreement
shall provide to the fullest extent permitted by law for indemnification in excess of that expressly permitted by statute, including, without limitation, any indemnification provided by the Certificate of Incorporation, the By-laws, vote of its stockholders or disinterested directors or applicable law. 

  
 - 5 - 

 Section 4. Indemnity in Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. The Company
shall indemnify Indemnitee in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4 if Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or a participant in any Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor.
Pursuant to this Section 4, Indemnitee shall be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue
or matter therein, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. No indemnification for Expenses shall be made under this Section 4 in respect of any
claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been finally adjudged by a court to be liable to the Company, unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court (as hereinafter defined) or any court in which the Proceeding was brought
shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification. 

Section 5. Indemnification for Expenses of a Party Who is Wholly or Partly Successful. Notwithstanding any other provisions of
this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and to the extent that Indemnitee is a party to (or a participant in) and is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any Proceeding or in defense of any claim, issue or matter
therein, in whole or in part, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or
otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with or related to each
successfully resolved claim, issue or matter to the fullest extent permitted by law. For purposes of this Section and without limitation, the termination of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice,
shall be deemed to be a successful result as to such claim, issue or matter. 
 Section 6. Indemnification For Expenses of a
Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his Corporate Status, a witness or otherwise asked to participate in any
Proceeding to which Indemnitee is not a party, he shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection therewith. 

Section 7. Partial Indemnification. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the
Company for some or a portion of Expenses, but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion thereof to which Indemnitee is entitled. 

Section 8. Additional Indemnification. 

(a) Notwithstanding any limitation in Sections 3, 4, or 5, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law if Indemnitee is a party to or threatened to be made a party to any Proceeding (including a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor) against all Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement
(including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of such Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the
Proceeding. 

  
 - 6 - 

 (b) For purposes of Section 8(a), the meaning of the phrase “to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law” shall include, but not be limited to: 
 i. to the fullest extent permitted by the
provision of the DGCL that authorizes or contemplates additional indemnification by agreement, or the corresponding provision of any amendment to or replacement of the DGCL, and 

ii. to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by any amendments to or replacements of the DGCL adopted after the date of
this Agreement that increase the extent to which a corporation may indemnify its officers and directors. 
 Section 9.
Exclusions. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated under this Agreement to make any indemnification payment in connection with any claim made against Indemnitee: 

(a) for which payment has actually been made to or on behalf of Indemnitee under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision, except with
respect to any excess beyond the amount paid under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision; or 
 (b) for (i) an accounting of
profits made from the purchase and sale (or sale and purchase) by Indemnitee of securities of the Company within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act (as defined in Section 2(b) hereof) or similar provisions of state statutory
law or common law, or (ii) any reimbursement of the Company by the Indemnitee of any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation or of any profits realized by the Indemnitee from the sale of securities of the Company, as
required in each case under the Exchange Act (including any such reimbursements that arise from an accounting restatement of the Company pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), or the
payment to the Company of profits arising from the purchase and sale by Indemnitee of securities in violation of Section 306 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act); or 

(c) except as provided in Section 14(d) of this Agreement, in connection with any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by
Indemnitee, including any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee against the Company or its directors, officers, employees or other indemnitees, unless (i) the Board authorized the Proceeding (or any part of any
Proceeding) prior to its initiation or (ii) the Company provides the indemnification, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the Company under applicable law. 

Section 10. Advances of Expenses. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary (other than Section 14(d)),
the Company shall advance, to the extent not prohibited by law, the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) not initiated by Indemnitee, and such advancement shall be made within thirty
(30) days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements requesting such advances from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of any Proceeding. Advances shall be unsecured and interest free. Advances shall be
made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay the Expenses and without regard to Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification under the other provisions of this Agreement. In accordance with Section 14(d), advances
shall include any and all reasonable Expenses incurred pursuing an 

  
 - 7 - 

 
action to enforce this right of advancement, including Expenses incurred preparing and forwarding statements to the Company to support the advances claimed. The Indemnitee shall qualify for
advances upon the execution and delivery to the Company of this Agreement, which shall constitute an undertaking providing that the Indemnitee undertakes to repay the amounts advanced (without interest) to the extent that it is ultimately determined
that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. No other form of undertaking shall be required other than the execution of this Agreement. This Section 10 shall not apply to any claim made by Indemnitee for which indemnity is
excluded pursuant to Section 9. 
 Section 11. Procedure for Notification and Defense of Claim. 

(a) Indemnitee shall notify the Company in writing of any matter with respect to which Indemnitee intends to seek indemnification or
advancement of Expenses hereunder as soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt by Indemnitee of written notice thereof. The written notification to the Company shall include a description of the nature of the Proceeding and the facts
underlying the Proceeding. To obtain indemnification under this Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is
reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification following the final disposition of such Proceeding. The omission by Indemnitee to notify the Company hereunder will not relieve the Company from
any liability which it may have to Indemnitee hereunder or otherwise than under this Agreement, and any delay in so notifying the Company shall not constitute a waiver by Indemnitee of any rights under this Agreement. The Secretary of the Company
shall, promptly upon receipt of such a request for indemnification, advise the Board in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification. 

(b) The Company will be entitled to participate in the Proceeding at its own expense. 

Section 12. Procedure Upon Application for Indemnification. 

(a) Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to Section 11(a), a determination, if required by applicable law, with
respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto shall be made in the specific case: (i) if a Change in Control shall have occurred, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee; or
(ii) if a Change in Control shall not have occurred, (A) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board, (B) by a committee of Disinterested Directors designated by a majority vote of
the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board, (C) if there are no such Disinterested Directors or, if such Disinterested Directors so direct, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which
shall be delivered to Indemnitee or (D) if so directed by the Board, by the stockholders of the Company; and, if it is so determined that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, payment to Indemnitee shall be made within ten (10) days
after such determination. Indemnitee shall cooperate with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable
advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any costs

  
 - 8 - 

 
or Expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company
(irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification) and the Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom. The Company promptly will advise Indemnitee in writing with respect to
any determination that Indemnitee is or is not entitled to indemnification, including a description of any reason or basis for which indemnification has been denied. 

(b) In the event the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 12(a)
hereof, the Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 12(b). If a Change in Control shall not have occurred, the Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board, and the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee
advising him of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. If a Change in Control shall have occurred, the Independent Counsel shall be selected by Indemnitee (unless Indemnitee shall request that such selection be made by the Board, in
which event the preceding sentence shall apply), and Indemnitee shall give written notice to the Company advising it of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. In either event, Indemnitee or the Company, as the case may be, may, within
ten (10) days after such written notice of selection shall have been given, deliver to the Company or to Indemnitee, as the case may be, a written objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted
only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of
such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If such written objection is so made and substantiated, the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless
and until such objection is withdrawn or the Delaware Court has determined that such objection is without merit. If, within twenty (20) days after the later of submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to
Section 11(a) hereof and the final disposition of the Proceeding, no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition the Delaware Court for resolution of any objection which shall
have been made by the Company or Indemnitee to the other’s selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by such court or by such other person as such court shall designate, and the
person with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 12(a) hereof. Upon the due commencement of any judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to
Section 14(a) of this Agreement, Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further responsibility in such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing). 

Section 13. Presumptions and Effect of Certain Proceedings. 

(a) In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person or persons or entity making such
determination shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if Indemnitee has submitted a request for indemnification in accordance with Section 11(a) of this
Agreement, and the Company shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption in connection with the making by any person, persons or entity of any determination contrary to that presumption.
Neither the failure of the 

  
 - 9 - 

 
Company (including by its directors or Independent Counsel) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any action pursuant to this Agreement that indemnification is proper in the
circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Company (including by its directors or Independent Counsel) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a
defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. 
 (b) Subject to
Section 14(e), if the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 12 of this Agreement to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification shall not have made a determination within sixty (60) days after
receipt by the Company of the request therefor, the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such indemnification,
absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a
prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law; provided, however, that such 60-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional thirty (30) days, if the person,
persons or entity making the determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith requires such additional time for the obtaining or evaluating of documentation and/or information relating thereto; and provided, further, that
the foregoing provisions of this Section 13(b) shall not apply (i) if the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by the stockholders pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement and if (A) within fifteen
(15) days after receipt by the Company of the request for such determination the Board has resolved to submit such determination to the stockholders for their consideration at an annual meeting thereof to be held within seventy-five
(75) days after such receipt and such determination is made thereat, or (B) a special meeting of stockholders is called within fifteen (15) days after such receipt for the purpose of making such determination, such meeting is held for
such purpose within sixty (60) days after having been so called and such determination is made thereat, or (ii) if the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 12(a) of
this Agreement. 
 (c) The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or
conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that
Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his
conduct was unlawful. 
 (d) For purposes of any determination of good faith, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if
Indemnitee’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Enterprise, including financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the directors or officers of the Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the
advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with the reasonable care by the Enterprise. The
provisions of this Section 13(d) shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the other circumstances in which the Indemnitee may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Agreement. 

  
 - 10 - 

 (e) The knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any director, officer, trustee, partner,
managing member, fiduciary, agent or employee of the Enterprise shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under this Agreement. 

Section 14. Remedies of Indemnitee. 

(a) Subject to Section 14(e), in the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 12 of this Agreement that
Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement, (iii) no determination of entitlement to indemnification shall have been
made pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement within ninety (90) days after receipt by the Company of the request for indemnification, (iv) payment of indemnification is not made pursuant to Section 5, 6 or 7 or the last
sentence of Section 12(a) of this Agreement within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor, (v) payment of indemnification pursuant to Section 3, 4 or 8 of this Agreement is not made within ten
(10) days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, or (vi) in the event that the Company or any other person takes or threatens to take any action to declare this Agreement void or unenforceable,
or institutes any litigation or other action or Proceeding designed to deny, or to recover from, the Indemnitee the benefits provided or intended to be provided to the Indemnitee hereunder, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication by a court
of his entitlement to such indemnification or advancement of Expenses. Alternatively, Indemnitee, at his option, may seek an award in arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American
Arbitration Association. Indemnitee shall commence such proceeding seeking an adjudication or an award in arbitration within 180 days following the date on which Indemnitee first has the right to commence such proceeding pursuant to this
Section 14(a); provided, however, that the foregoing clause shall not apply in respect of a proceeding brought by Indemnitee to enforce his rights under Section 5 of this Agreement. The Company shall not oppose
Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication or award in arbitration. 
 (b) In the event that a determination shall have been made
pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo
trial, or arbitration, on the merits and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse determination. In any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14 the Company shall have the burden of proving
Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses, as the case may be. 
 (c) If a determination shall have been made
pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14, absent (i) a
misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such
indemnification under applicable law. 

  
 - 11 - 

 (d) The Company shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, be precluded from asserting
in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14 that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator
that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement. It is the intent of the Company that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Indemnitee not be required to incur legal fees or other Expenses associated with the interpretation,
enforcement or defense of Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement by litigation or otherwise because the cost and expense thereof would substantially detract from the benefits intended to be extended to the Indemnitee hereunder. The Company
shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify Indemnitee against any and all Expenses and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall (within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor) advance, to the extent not
prohibited by law, such Expenses to Indemnitee, which are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any action brought by Indemnitee for indemnification or advance of Expenses from the Company under this Agreement or under any directors’ and
officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company if, in the case of indemnification, Indemnitee is wholly successful on the underlying claims; if Indemnitee is not wholly successful on the underlying claims, then such
indemnification shall be only to the extent Indemnitee is successful on such underlying claims or otherwise as permitted by law, whichever is greater. 

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no determination as to entitlement of Indemnitee to indemnification under this
Agreement shall be required to be made prior to the final disposition of the Proceeding. 
 Section 15. Non-exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Insurance; Subrogation. 
 (a) The rights of indemnification and
to receive advancement of Expenses as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, the By-laws, any agreement, a vote of stockholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict any right of
Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in his Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent that a change in Delaware law, whether by statute or judicial decision,
permits greater indemnification or advancement of Expenses than would be afforded currently under the Certificate of Incorporation and this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater
benefits so afforded by such change. No right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder
or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy. 

(b) To the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, employees,
or agents of the Enterprise, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any such director, officer, employee or agent under such policy or
policies. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to the 

  
 - 12 - 

 
terms hereof, the Company has director and officer liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of such claim or of the commencement of a Proceeding, as the case may be, to
the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of
such Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies. 
 (c) In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Company shall be
subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the
Company to bring suit to enforce such rights. 
 (d) The Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment of amounts
otherwise indemnifiable (or for which advancement is provided hereunder) hereunder if and to the extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise. 

(e) The Company’s obligation to indemnify or advance Expenses hereunder to Indemnitee who is or was serving at the request of the Company
as a director, officer, trustee, partner, managing member, fiduciary, employee or agent of any other corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise shall be reduced by any amount
Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification or advancement of Expenses from such other corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. 

Section 16. Duration of Agreement. This Agreement shall continue until and terminate upon the later of: (a) ten (10) years
after the date that Indemnitee shall have ceased to serve as a [officer] [director] of the Company or (b) one (1) year after the final termination of any Proceeding then pending in respect of which Indemnitee is granted rights of
indemnification or advancement of Expenses hereunder and of any proceeding commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 14 of this Agreement relating thereto. The indemnification and advancement of expenses rights provided by or granted pursuant
to this Agreement shall be binding upon and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise to all or substantially all of
the business or assets of the Company), shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or of any other Enterprise, and shall inure to the benefit of Indemnitee and his or her spouse,
assigns, heirs, devisees, executors and administrators and other legal representatives. 
 Section 17. Severability. If any
provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (a) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement (including without
limitation, each portion of any Section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and
shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law; (b) such provision or provisions shall be deemed reformed to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law and to give the maximum effect to the intent of the parties hereto;
and (c) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of any Section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself
invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested thereby.

 Section 18. Enforcement. 

(a) The Company expressly confirms and agrees that it has entered into this Agreement and assumed the obligations imposed on it hereby in order
to induce Indemnitee to serve as a director or officer of the Company, and the Company acknowledges that Indemnitee is relying upon this Agreement in serving as a director or officer of the Company. 

(b) This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and
replaces all prior agreements and understandings, oral, written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, including any indemnification agreement previously entered into between the Company and the
Indemnitee; provided, however, that this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Certificate of Incorporation, the By-laws and applicable law, and shall not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor
to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder. 
 Section 19. Modification and Waiver. No supplement, modification
or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions of this Agreement nor shall
any waiver constitute a continuing waiver. 
 Section 20. Notice by Indemnitee. Indemnitee agrees promptly to notify the Company
in writing upon being served with any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information or other document relating to any Proceeding or matter which may be subject to indemnification or advancement of Expenses covered hereunder. The
failure of Indemnitee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of any obligation which it may have to the Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise. 

Section 21. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and
shall be deemed to have been duly given if (a) delivered by hand and receipted for by the party to whom said notice or other communication shall have been directed, (b) mailed by certified or registered mail with postage prepaid, on the
third business day after the date on which it is so mailed, (c) mailed by reputable overnight courier and receipted for by the party to whom said notice or other communication shall have been directed or (d) sent by facsimile transmission,
with receipt of oral confirmation that such transmission has been received: 
 (a) If to Indemnitee, at the address indicated on the
signature page of this Agreement, or such other address as Indemnitee shall provide to the Company.

 or to any other
address as may have been furnished to Indemnitee by the Company. 

  
 - 14 - 

 Section 22. Contribution. To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, if
the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is unavailable to Indemnitee for any reason whatsoever, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount incurred by Indemnitee, whether for judgments, fines,
penalties, excise taxes, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement and/or for Expenses, in connection with any claim relating to an indemnifiable event under this Agreement, in such proportion as is deemed fair and reasonable in light of all of the
circumstances of such Proceeding in order to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, as a result of the event(s) and/or transaction(s) giving cause to such Proceeding;
and/or (ii) the relative fault of the Company (and its other directors, officers, employees and agents), on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, in connection with such event(s) and/or transaction(s). 

Section 23. Applicable Law and Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement and the legal relations among the parties shall be governed
by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Except with respect to any arbitration commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 14(a) of this Agreement, the
Company and Indemnitee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agree that any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be brought only in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware
Court”), and not in any other state or federal court in the United States of America or any court in any other country, (ii) consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court for purposes of any action or proceeding
arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, (iii) appoint, to the extent such party is not otherwise subject to service of process in the State of Delaware, irrevocably RL&F Service Corp., 920 North King Street, 2nd Floor, Wilmington, New Castle County, Delaware 19801 as its agent in the State of Delaware as such party’s agent for acceptance of legal process in connection with any such action or proceeding
against such party with the same legal force and validity as if served upon such party personally within the State of Delaware, (iv) waive any objection to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in the Delaware Court, and
(v) waive, and agree not to plead or to make, any claim that any such action or proceeding brought in the Delaware Court has been brought in an improper or inconvenient forum. 

Section 24. Identical Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall for all
purposes be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. Only one such counterpart signed by the party against whom enforceability is sought needs to be produced to evidence the existence of this
Agreement. 
 Section 25. Miscellaneous. Use of the masculine pronoun shall be deemed to include usage of the feminine pronoun
where appropriate. The headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this Agreement or to affect the construction thereof.
