The foregoing restrictions in clauses (1) and (2) (x) shall not be applicable to any Transfer to or other agreement or transaction with an Affiliate of any Holder; provided that such Transfer shall be conditioned upon the transferee executing and delivering to the Company a written acceptance of all the terms and conditions of this Section 2 and (y) may be waived by the Company in its sole discretion with respect to any specific Transfer, agreement or transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transferee of any transferred Shares shall be subject to the ownership limitations and transfer restrictions set forth in the Company's Charter.

Section 3.Registration Rights.
(a)Shelf Registration Statement.
(1)The Company shall use its best efforts to prepare and file with the SEC prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, a Shelf Registration Statement with respect to resales of all Registrable Securities, subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 2(a). Unless such Shelf Registration Statement shall become automatically effective, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to become or be declared effective by the SEC for all of the Registrable Securities covered thereby prior to the expiration of the Initial Lock-Up Period. To the extent the Company is a WKSI at the time that the Shelf Registration Statement is to be filed, the Company shall file an automatic Shelf Registration Statement which covers such Registrable Securities.

(2)The Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement (or a successor Registration Statement filed with respect to the Registrable Securities) continuously effective (including by filing a new Shelf Registration Statement if the initial Shelf Registration Statement expires) in order to permit the Prospectus forming a part therof to be lawfully delivered and the Shelf Registration Statement useable for resale of the Registrable Securities, subject to Section 2 and Section 7, so long as there are any Registrable Securities outstanding (the “Effectiveness Period”).
(b)Shelf Offerings. Subject to Section 7, upon the written request of a Holder (“Shelf Offering Notice”) to the Company made at any time after the Lock-Up Period and from time to time during the Effectiveness Period, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to facilitate a “takedown” of Registrable Securities off of the Shelf Registration Statement by such Holder (“Shelf Offering”) by amending or supplementing the Prospectus related to the Shelf Registration Statement as may be reasonably requested by such Holder as promptly as reasonably practicable upon receipt of the Shelf Offering Notice. The Holders shall give the Company prompt written notice of the consummation of a sale effected in any Shelf Offering. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event any Shelf Offering is a Qualified Offering, such offering shall be subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in Section 3(c) below. Neither the Company nor any stockholder of the Company (other than the Holders) may include securities in any offering requested under Section 3(a), (b), (c) or (d) of this Agreement.
(c)Underwritten Offerings.
(1)Subject to Section 7, at any time after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period and from time to time during the Effectiveness Period, a Holder may notify the Company in writing that such Holder desires to sell its Registrable Securities by means of a Qualified Offering (a “Qualified Offering Notice”) and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to facilitate such Qualified Offering, including the actions required by Section 4; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect, or take any action to effect, a Qualified Offering if:
(1)the value of the Registrable Securities to be sold in the Qualified Offering (based on the closing price of the Registrable Securities on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the Qualified Offering Notice) shall be less than $25 million;
(2)such Qualified Offering Notice is received before the expiration of any lock-up period required by the underwriters in any prior Qualified Offering, if such lock-up period is not waived by the underwriters;
(3)at the time the Company receives a Qualified Offering Notice, the Company is actively undertaking an underwritten offering of its stock and the Company has previously delivered a notice to the Holders of its intention to undertake such proposed underwritten offering; provided that immediately following the date the Company ceases to actively pursue or has completed such offering, subject to Section 5.1(b), the Company shall again be obligated to effect a Qualified Offering pursuant to this Section 3(c) unless the Holder has withdrawn its request for a Qualified Offering; or
(4)at the time the Company receives a Qualified Offering Notice, the Company is in active discussions with underwriters regarding an underwritten offering of Common Stock and it is reasonably likely that such an underwritten offering will be promptly initiated by the Company, but the Company has not yet

delivered a written notice to the Holders in accordance with Section 3(c)(i)(3); provided, however, that the Company shall not be entitled to invoke either Section 3(c)(i)(3) or (4) (x) unless the Company has complied with Section 3(e) with respect to its offering and also is not permitting the use of any registration statement with respect to any securities of the Company to be sold by any other stockholders of the Company or (y) if the Company has completed two (2) sales of Common Stock in any rolling 365-day period in which Common Stock is sold (I) to an underwriter on a firm commitment basis for offering and sale to the public, (II) in an offering that is a “bought deal” with one or more investment banks or (III) in a block trade with a broker-dealer;
provided, further, the Company shall not be entitled to invoke either Section 3(c)(i)(3) or (4) (and, if invoked, such Section shall cease to have effect) at any time that the Holders shall have been subject to an aggregate of 120 or more Block Out Days in any rolling 365-day period or if either Section has been invoked during any rolling 6-month period.
(2)In connection with each Qualified Offering pursuant to this Section 3(c), the Holders will determine the lead book runner(s), who shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company, and such other matters affecting the structure and marketing of the Qualified Offering.
(3)The rights of the Holders set forth in this Section 3(c) shall terminate if the Holders cease to own, in the aggregate, 1% or more of the outstanding Common Stock.
(4)Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions or anything else to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to undertake more than two (2) Qualified Offerings pursuant to this Section 3(c) (excluding any Qualified Offering in respect of which the Company is not required to enter into an underwriting agreement, purchase agreement or other similar agreement or take any action referenced in Section 4(m)) and provided further that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any Qualified Offering if the occurrence of such Qualified Offering would result in more than two Qualified Offerings being effected in any rolling 365-day period.
(d)Demand Registration.
(1)Subject to Section 7, upon the written request of a Holder (the “Demand Registration Request”) made at any time after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period and from time to time thereafter during the Effectiveness Period, if the Company is not eligible to file a Shelf Registration Statement or the Company has not used its best efforts to have a Shelf Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC or the Shelf Registration Statement shall cease to be effective, the Company shall file with the SEC, no later than 45 days after such written request, a Registration Statement with respect to all of the Registrable Securities held by the Holders. The Holder submitting the Demand Registration Request shall concurrently provide written notice of the proposed registration to all other Holders and such Holders shall promptly provide the Company with information required by Section 3(f). For the avoidance of doubt, if a Holder intends to sell Registrable Securities covered by the Demand Registration Request by means of a Qualified Offering, it shall so advise the Company as part of its Demand Registration Request and the conditions and limitations set forth in Section 3(c) shall apply.
(2)The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC for all of the Registrable Securities covered thereby as soon as reasonably practicable following the filing thereof,

but in no event later than 75 days after the filing of such Registration Statement.
(e)Piggyback Registration
(1)If at any time following the Lock-Up Period, (x) the Company shall determine to register any of its capital stock either (A) for its own account, or (B) for the account of other holders of securities of the Company (other than (I) a registration relating solely to employee or director benefit or distribution reinvestment plans), (II) a registration relating solely to a Rule 145 transaction under the Securities Act, (III) a registration on any registration form which may not be used for the registration or qualification of Registrable Securities or does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a Registration Statement or (IV) a new universal shelf registration statement solely for its own account, or (y) shares of capital stock are to be sold in an underwritten offering (whether or not for the account of the Company), the Company will, subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 3(e):
(1)promptly give to each of the Holders a written notice thereof; and
(2)subject to Section 3(e)(ii) below and any transfer restrictions to which any Holder may be subject, including the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 2, include in such registration and/or underwritten offering, all of the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests, made by the Holders. Such written request may specify all or less than all of the Holder's Registrable Securities and shall be received by the Company within five (5) Business Days after written notice from the Company is given under Section 3(e)(i)(1) above.
(2)Underwriting. In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Common Stock or other equity securities of the Company under this Section 3(e), the Company shall not be required under this Section 3(e) to include any of the Holders' Registrable Securities in such underwriting unless such Holder accepts the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it (or by other Persons entitled to select the underwriters); provided, however, that such underwriting agreement shall be in customary form and shall not provide for indemnification or contribution obligations on the part of any Holder greater than the obligations of the Holders under Section 6(b) or Section 6(d) of this Agreement. If any Holder who has requested inclusion in such registration disapproves of the terms of the underwriting agreement, such Holder shall not be required to enter into such underwriting agreement and shall withdraw from such registration by providing written notice to the Company and the underwriters. If the total amount of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by Selling Holders and other stockholders of the Company with similar piggyback registration rights to be included in an offering pursuant to this Section 3(e) exceeds the maximum amount of securities that the underwriters determine in their reasonable opinion can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering then the Company shall be required to include in such offering only that number of such Registrable Securities, if any, which the underwriters determine in their reasonable opinion, will not adversely affect the marketability of the offering (the Registrable Securities so included, if any, to be apportioned pro rata among the Selling Holders according to the total amount of securities requested to be included therein owned by each Selling Holder or in such other proportions if mutually agreed to by such Selling Holders); provided that, until the date which is 18 months after the date

hereof (the “Anniversary Date”), unless all Registrable Securities requested by Selling Holders are included in such offering, no securities of any other stockholder of the Company shall be included in such offering. After the Anniversary Date, securities of any other stockholder with similar piggyback registration rights may be included in an offering pursuant to this Section 3(e), such securities to be apportioned pro rata among the Selling Holders and such other stockholders according to the total amount of securities requested to be included therein.
(3)In the case of an offering initiated by the Company as a primary offering on behalf of the Company, nothing contained herein shall prohibit the Company from determining, at any time, not to file a registration statement or, if filed, to withdraw such registration or terminate or abandon the offering related thereto.
(f)Further Information
It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Section 3 with respect to the Registrable Securities of any Holder that such Holder furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the potential method of disposition (which may be an underwritten offering or one or more other methods permitted by law) of such securities and such other information relating to such Holder as the Company may reasonably request as shall be required to effect the registration of such Holder's Registrable Securities. Each Holder agrees to furnish such information to the Company and to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested to enable the Company to comply with the provisions of this Agreement.
(g)Expenses of Registration
The Company shall bear all Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement and the Company's performance of its other obligations under the terms of this Agreement.

(b)In the event of a public sale of the Company's equity securities by the Company in an underwritten offering, whether or not the Holders participate therein but subject to the Company's compliance with Section 3(e), the Holders hereby agree not to effect any sale or distribution (including, without limitation, any offer to sell, contract to sell, short sale, or any option to purchase) of any securities (except, in each case, as part of such underwritten offering, if applicable) that are the same or similar to those being offered in connection with such public sale, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for such securities, during the period beginning five (5) days before, and ending sixty (60) days (or such lesser period as may be permitted by the Company or such managing underwriter or underwriters) after, the effective date of the Registration Statement filed in connection with such underwritten offering, to the extent notified in writing by the Company or the managing underwriter or underwriters; provided that if any other holder of Company securities is released from similar “lock-up” obligations with respect to such an underwritten offering and the aggregate of securities so released is greater than 250,000 shares, then the Holders shall also be released from their “lock-up” obligations in an amount of securities equal to the amount of securities so released for such other securityholders, such release pro rata among the Holders based on the number of their Shares subject to the “lock-up.” Each Holder also agrees to execute an agreement evidencing the restrictions in this Section 5(b) in customary form, which form is satisfactory to the Company and the underwriters; provided that the executive officers and directors of the Company shall enter into similar agreements for not less than the entire period required of the Holders hereunder. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the securities subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of the required period. This Section 5(b) shall not be applicable if the Holders do not own, in the aggregate, 5% or more of the Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the underwritten offering.
Section 6.Indemnification.
(a)Indemnification by the Company.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company agrees to indemnify each of the Holders and each of its officers, directors, managers, partners, members, employees, agents, representatives and Affiliates, each underwriter (within the meaning of the Securities Act), and each Person, if any, that controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act) a Holder or an underwriter, (each, an “Indemnitee”), against any and all losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs and expenses (including without limitation reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of attorneys and other professionals), joint or several, as incurred, arising out of or based upon (i) any violation or alleged violation by the Company, its officers, directors,

employees, agents or representatives of this Agreement, the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law applicable to the Company and any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder relating to action or inaction of the Company under the terms of this Agreement or in connection with any Registration Statement or Prospectus or offering of securities under any Registration Statement, (ii) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (iii) any third party claim based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Prospectus, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to such Indemnitee or any Person who participates as an underwriter in the offering or sale of Registrable Securities or any other Person, if any, who controls such underwriter (within the meaning of the Securities Act), in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such Registration Statement or in any such Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with information regarding such Indemnitee or its plan of distribution or ownership interests which was furnished in writing to the Company for use in connection with such Registration Statement or the Prospectus contained therein by such Indemnitee.
(b)Indemnification by Holders.
Each of the Holders (severally and not jointly), to the fullest extent permitted by law, agrees to indemnify the Company, each of its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and Affiliates, and each Person, if any, who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any and all losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs and expenses arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in a Registration Statement, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, if and to the extent that such statement or omission occurs from reliance upon and in conformity with written information regarding any Holder, or such Holder's plan of distribution or ownership interest, which was furnished to the Company by such Holder for use therein, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Prospectus, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, if and to the extent that such statement or omission occurs from reliance upon and in conformity with written information regarding such Holder, his, her or its plan of distribution or his, her or its ownership interests, which was furnished to the Company by such Holder for use therein; provided, however, that the obligations of each of the Holders hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds received by such Holder giving rise to such indemnification obligation upon the sale of the Registrable Securities.
(c)Indemnification Procedures.
Any party entitled to indemnification under this Agreement shall notify promptly the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement of any action or proceeding with respect to which a claim for indemnification may be made hereunder, but the failure of any indemnified party to provide such notice shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder,

except to the extent the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced thereby and shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than hereunder. In case any action or proceeding is brought against an indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, unless in the reasonable opinion of outside counsel to the indemnified party a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist in respect of such claim, to assume the defense thereof (alone or jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified), to the extent that it chooses, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party that it so chooses, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that (i) if the indemnifying party fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently the action or proceeding within twenty (20) business days after receiving notice from such indemnified party that the indemnified party believes it has failed to do so; or (ii) if such indemnified party who is a defendant in any action or proceeding which is also brought against the indemnifying party shall have reasonably concluded, based on the advice of counsel, that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such indemnified party which are not available to the indemnifying party; or (iii) if representation of both parties by the same counsel is otherwise inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct, then, in any such case, the indemnified party shall have the right to assume or continue its own defense as set forth above (but with no more than one firm of counsel for all indemnified parties in each jurisdiction, except to the extent any indemnified party or parties reasonably shall have concluded, based on the opinion of counsel, that there may be legal defenses available to such party or parties which are not available to the other indemnified parties or to the extent representation of all indemnified parties by the same counsel is otherwise inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct) and the indemnifying party shall be liable for any expenses therefor. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the indemnified party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or (to the knowledge of the indemnifying party) threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (A) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (B) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
(d)Contribution.
If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnitee with respect to any losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs or expenses referred to therein or is insufficient to hold the Indemnitee harmless as contemplated therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and the Indemnitee, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs or expenses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and of the Indemnitee, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other factors, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact relates

to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the Indemnitee and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, however, that in no event shall the obligation of any indemnifying party to contribute under this Section 6(d) exceed the amount that such indemnifying party would have been obligated to pay by way of indemnification if the indemnification provided for under Section 6 had been available under the circumstances. The Company and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. In addition, no Person shall be obligated to contribute hereunder for any amounts in payment for any settlement of any action or claim, effected without such Person's written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(e)For purposes of this Section 6, no Indemnitee guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any indemnifying party who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The indemnification provided by this Section 6 shall be a continuing right to indemnification and shall survive the registration and sale of any securities by any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder and the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
Section 7.Suspension of Registration Requirement; Restriction on Sales.
(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall have the right to defer the filing, or suspend the use by the Holders, of a Registration Statement for a reasonable period of time not in excess of 60 days (each, a “Suspension Period”) if the Company furnishes the Holders with a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Financial Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be detrimental to the Company and its stockholders not to defer the filing, or suspend the use by the Holders, of a Registration Statement because such filing or use would: (i) materially interfere with a material pending financing, acquisition, disposition, corporate reorganization, merger, or other material transaction involving or being contemplated by the Company or (ii) require the Company to make premature disclosure of material non-public information not otherwise then required to be disclosed by law to be publicly disclosed, the premature disclosure of which would materially and adversely affect the Company. The Suspension Period will terminate prior to the expiration stated in the certificate referenced above (x) in the case of clause (i) above, if such registration or use would cease to materially interfere with any such transaction (whether because such transaction shall have been disclosed, abandoned or otherwise) and (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the date upon which such information is otherwise disclosed or the disclosure of such information would cease to materially and adversely affect the Company. In no event shall there be more than one Suspension Period during any rolling six-month period, and the number of days covered by one or more Suspension Periods shall not exceed one hundred and twenty (120) days in any rolling 365-day period. The right pursuant to this Section 7(a) shall be exercisable by the Company only if the Company is, during any Suspension Period, also is not permitting the use of any registration statement with respect to any securities of the Company to be sold by the Company (other than sales pursuant to an underwritten offering (subject to the Company's compliance with Section 3(e)) or a Company-sponsored dividend reinvestment plan or employee benefit plans) or by any other stockholders of the Company (whether or not in an underwritten offering).

(b)Each Holder agrees that, following the effectiveness of any Registration Statement relating to Registrable Securities of such Holder, such Holder will not effect any dispositions of any of the Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement or any filings under any state securities laws at any time after such Holder has received notice from the Company to suspend dispositions as a result of the occurrence of any Suspension Period. The Holders will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in the written notice delivered by the Company unless otherwise required by law or subpoena. The Holders may recommence effecting dispositions of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or such filings, and all other obligations which are suspended as a result of a Suspension Period shall no longer be so suspended, following further notice to such effect from the Company, which notice shall be given by the Company promptly after the conclusion of any such Suspension Period.
Section 8.Additional Shares.
The Company, at its option, may register, under any Registration Statement and any filings under any state securities laws filed pursuant to this Agreement, any number of unissued, or other shares of Common Stock of or owned by the Company and any of its subsidiaries or any shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company owned by any other security holder or security holders of the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not enter into any agreement with respect to the Company's securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of Registrable Securities under this Agreement and no such agreement is currently in effect.
Section 9.No Other Obligation to Register.
Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Company shall have no obligation to the Holders to register the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act.
Section 10.In-Kind Distributions.
Following the Lock-Up Period, if any Holder seeks to effectuate an in-kind distribution of all or part of its Registrable Securities to its direct or indirect equityholders, the Company will use its reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Holder and the Company's transfer agent to facilitate such in-kind distribution in the manner reasonably requested by such Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such direct or indirect equityholder receiving an in-kind distribution of Registrable Securities shall be subject to the ownership limitations and transfer restrictions set forth in the Company's Charter.
Section 11.Miscellaneous.
(a)Amendments and Waivers.
The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified, or supplemented or waived without the prior written consent of the Company and Holders holding in excess of two-thirds of the aggregate of the outstanding Registrable Securities.
(b)Notices.

No Person other than the parties hereto and their successors and assigns is intended to be a beneficiary of this Agreement.

(k)Entire Agreement.
