2. Participation Rights.

2.1. Definitions. As used in this Section 2, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

(a) “New Securities” means (i) any capital stock of the Company whether or not currently authorized, (ii) all rights, options, or warrants to purchase capital stock, and (iii) all securities of any type whatsoever that are, or may become, convertible into capital stock; provided, however, that the term “New Securities” shall not include (1) the Series E Preferred Stock issued or to be issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Senior Preferred Stock or Series SRN Preferred Stock; (2) those certain warrants to purchase Common Stock issued pursuant to (A) the Purchase Agreement or (B) that certain Securities Purchase Agreement by and among the Company and the other parties thereto, dated as of April 10, 2015, if any, or shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of any such warrants; (3) shares of Common Stock, or options to purchase such shares, that are issued or granted to directors, employees or consultants of the Company pursuant to a stock incentive plan approved by the Board of Directors, including a majority of the Preferred Directors; (4) securities issued as a result of any stock split, stock dividend, or reclassification by the Company, distributable on a pro rata basis to all holders of such class of securities; (5) securities reissued to employees or consultants of the Company following the Company’s acquisition of such securities pursuant to restricted stock arrangements with individuals who have terminated their relationship with the Company or shares subject to options which have been cancelled; (6) securities issued to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology or persons designated by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology pursuant to the MIT License Agreement (as defined in the Purchase Agreement); (7) securities issued to a financing institution in connection with a commercial credit arrangement, equipment financing or similar financing arrangement approved by a majority of the Board of Directors, including a

5

majority of the Preferred Directors; (8) securities issued in connection with the bona fide acquisition of a business, product or technology by the Corporation approved by a majority of the Board of Directors, including a majority of the Preferred Directors; and (9) securities issued in connection with any bona fide sponsored research, collaboration, joint venture, technology license, development, OEM, marketing or other similar agreements or strategic partnerships approved by a majority of the Board of Directors, including a majority of the Preferred Directors.

(b) “Purchaser” shall include, for the purposes of this Section 2 only, each Licensor Shareholder.

2.2. Participation Right. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to purchase, on a pro rata basis, all or any part of New Securities which the Company may, from time to time, propose to sell and issue, subject to the terms and conditions set forth below. Each Purchaser’s pro rata share shall equal a fraction of the New Securities being issued, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock held or Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Senior Preferred Stock or other convertible securities (other than the Series SRN Preferred Stock and disregarding the special conversion ratios set forth in Section 3.3(a)(i)(1) or Section 3.3(b)(i)(2) of the Company Charter in effect on the date hereof) then held by such Purchaser, and the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of then outstanding Senior Preferred Stock or other convertible securities then outstanding (other than the Series SRN Preferred Stock and disregarding the special conversion ratios set forth in Section 3.3(a)(i)(1) or Section 3.3(b)(i)(2) of the Company Charter in effect on the date hereof). For the purposes of this Section 2, a Purchaser may apportion its pro rata share among itself and any of its general partners, officers, and other affiliates in such proportions as it deems appropriate.

2.3. Exercise of Right. In the event the Company intends to issue New Securities, it shall give each Purchaser written notice of such intention, describing the type of New Securities to be issued, the price thereof, and the general terms upon which the Company proposes to effect such issuance (the “Sale Notice”). Each Purchaser shall have twenty (20) days from the date of the delivery of any Sale Notice to agree to purchase all or part of its pro rata share of such New Securities for the price and upon the general terms and conditions specified in the Sale Notice by giving written notice to the Company stating the quantity of New Securities to be so purchased (“Exercise Notice”); provided, however, that in the event that the transaction described in a Sale Notice involves in whole or in part the payment of non-cash consideration, or the payment of consideration over time, the Purchasers shall have the right to elect, upon exercise of their rights set forth in this Section 2, to pay to the Company in full consideration for the New Securities the present cash value of the consideration described in the Sale Notice as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith.

2.4. Overallotment. In the event any Purchaser fails to exercise its right to purchase its pro rata share of New Securities, each Purchaser who delivered an Exercise Notice for such Purchaser’s total pro rata share of New Securities (an “Overallotment Purchaser”) shall have a right to purchase such Overallotment Purchaser’s pro rata share of the New Securities with respect to which Purchasers have failed to exercise their rights hereunder (“Remaining New Securities”). In such case, within twenty five (25) days after the delivery of the Sale Notice, the Company shall provide written notice (“Overallotment Notice”) to each Overallotment

6

Purchaser, which shall state the total amount of Remaining New Securities, and the pro rata portion of such Remaining New Securities which each Overallotment Purchaser is entitled to purchase. Each Overallotment Purchaser wishing to purchase any Remaining New Securities shall amend such Overallotment Purchaser’s Exercise Notice in writing within five (5) days from the date of delivery of the Overallotment Notice. For the purpose of this Section 2.4, an Overallotment Purchaser’s pro rata share of the Remaining New Securities shall be calculated as provided in Section 2.2, except that the denominator of the fraction shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of shares of Senior Preferred Stock held by all of the Overallotment Purchasers.

2.5. Closing. The closing of the purchase of New Securities by the Purchasers exercising their rights hereunder (“Participating Purchasers”) shall take place at such location, date and time as the parties purchasing such New Securities shall agree. At the closing, the Company shall deliver to the Participating Purchasers certificates representing all of the New Securities purchased and such other agreements executed by the Company which grant any rights or privileges to the Participating Purchasers as are being granted to the other purchasers in such issuance, and in any event, at the request of the Participating Purchasers, a duly executed certificate reasonably satisfactory to the Participating Purchasers containing a representation and warranty that, upon issuance or transfer of such securities to the Participating Purchasers, the Participating Purchasers will be the legal and beneficial owners of such securities with good title thereto, free and clear of all mortgages, liens, charges, security interests, adverse claims, pledges, encumbrances and demands whatsoever, and that the Company has the absolute right to issue or transfer such securities to the Participating Purchasers without the consent or approval of any other person. At the closing, the Participating Purchasers shall deliver to the Company payment for the New Securities and such agreements executed by the other purchasers in such issuance which include representations by such purchasers to the Company or restrict such purchaser’s rights with respect to the New Securities, and, at the request of the Company, a duly executed certificate reasonably satisfactory to the Company containing such representations and warranties of the Participating Purchasers with respect to federal and state securities laws. The certificates representing the equity securities may contain a legend stating that they are issued subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws.

2.6. Failure to Exercise Right. In the event the Purchasers fail to fully exercise the foregoing participation right with respect to any New Securities within the periods specified by Sections 2.3 and 2.4 above, the Company may within one hundred twenty (120) days after the delivery of the Sale Notice sell any or all of such New Securities not agreed to be purchased by the Purchasers, at a price and upon general terms no more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified in the Sale Notice. In the event the Company has not closed the sale of such New Securities within such 120-day period, the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any New Securities without first offering such New Securities to the Purchasers in the manner provided in Section 2.3.

2.7. Waiver and Termination of Participation Rights. The participation rights established in this Section 2 may be waived with and only with the written consent of the Company and the Purchasers holding at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3 %) of the Registrable Securities (as defined below) held by all Purchasers (which waiver shall apply to all

7

Purchasers holding Registrable Securities, it being agreed that a waiver of the provisions of this Section 2 with respect to a particular transaction shall be deemed to apply to all Purchasers if such waiver does so by its terms, notwithstanding the fact that certain Purchasers may nonetheless, by agreement with the Company, purchase securities in such transaction). The provisions of this Section 2 shall not apply to, and shall terminate immediately prior to the execution of, (i) a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act (as defined below) covering the offer and sale of the Company’s Common Stock to the public, for the account of the Company, and having an aggregate offering price to the public of not less than $30,000,000 (a “Qualified Public Offering”) and (ii) a transaction that qualifies as a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company under the Company Charter, as it may be amended from time to time.

pursuant to Section 3.2(a) and the Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in Section 3.2(a)(i). The underwriter will be selected by the Company and shall be reasonably acceptable to a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders. In such event, the right of any Preferred Stock Holder to include Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Preferred Stock Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Preferred Stock Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders and such Preferred Stock Holder) to the extent provided herein. All Preferred Stock Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company as provided in Section 3.5(e)) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.2, if the underwriter advises the Initiating Holders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Initiating Holders shall so advise all Preferred Stock Holders of Registrable Securities which would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated among all Preferred Stock Holders thereof, including the Initiating Holders, in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the amount of Registrable Securities of the Company owned by each Preferred Stock Holder; provided, however, that the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in such underwriting shall not be reduced unless all other securities are first entirely excluded from the underwriting.

(d) In addition, the Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any registration pursuant to this Section 3.2 after the Company has effected two (2) registrations on Form S-1 pursuant to this Section 3.2 and such registration statements have been declared or ordered effective and the sales of Registrable Securities under such registration statements have closed.

(e) No incidental right under this Section 3.2 shall be construed to limit any registration required under Section 3.3 or Section 3.4 herein.

3.3. “Piggy-Back” Registration.

(a) If (but without any obligation to do so) the Company proposes to register (including for this purpose a registration effected by the Company for stockholders other than the Holders) any of its stock or other securities under the Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash, other than (i) the initial registration of any series or class of the Company’s securities, (ii) a registration relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a

10

stock plan, (iii) a registration on any form which does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities, or (iv) a registration on Form S-4 (or any successor form) relating solely to a transaction pursuant to the SEC’s Rule 145, the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder written notice of such registration. Upon the written request by a Holder given to the Company within twenty (20) days after such notice by the Company provided in accordance with Section 6.4, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 3.3(b), cause to be registered under the Act all of the Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be registered.

(b) In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock, the Company shall not be required under this Section 3.3 to include any of the Holders’ securities in such underwriting unless such Holders accept 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), and then only in such quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. If the total amount of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities to be sold (other than by the Company) that the underwriters determine in their sole discretion is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Registrable Securities, which the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering; provided, however, there shall first be excluded from such registration statement all shares of Common Stock sought to be included therein by (i) any director, consultant, officer, or employee of the Company or any subsidiary other than the Founders and their Permitted Transferees and (ii) stockholders exercising any contractual or incidental registration rights subordinate and junior to the rights of the Preferred Stock Holders. If after such shares are excluded, the underwriters shall determine in their sole discretion that the number of securities which remain to be included in the offering exceeds the amount of securities to be sold that the underwriters determine is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Registrable Securities to be included, if any, shall be apportioned pro rata among the Holders providing notice of their desire to participate in the offering according to the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned by each selling Holder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by such Holders. For purposes of the preceding sentence concerning apportionment, for any selling Holder which is a partnership or corporation, the partners, retired partners, and stockholders of such Holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons shall be deemed to be a single “selling Holder,” and any pro-rata reduction with respect to such “selling Holder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such “selling Holder,” as defined in this sentence.

(c) No incidental right under this Section 3.3 shall be construed to limit any registration required under Section 3.2 or Section 3.4 herein.

3.4. Form S-3 Registration. In case the Company shall receive from Preferred Stock Holders a written request that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3, subject to the limitations and qualifications set forth in Section 3.4(b), and any related qualification or

11

compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned by such Preferred Stock Holder or Preferred Stock Holders, the Company agrees:

(a) to promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders; and

(b) as soon as practicable after receiving such a request, to effect such registration and all such qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Preferred Stock Holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification, or compliance pursuant to this Section 3.4 if (i) Form S-3 is not available for such offering by the Holders; (ii) the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public of less than $2,000,000; (iii) the Company furnishes to the Holders a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such Form S-3 registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3 registration statement for a period of not more than sixty (60) days after receipt of the request of the Preferred Stock Holders under this Section 3.4, provided, however, that the Company shall not utilize this right more than once in any eighteen (18) month period; or (iv) the Company has effected two (2) registrations on Form S-3 (or its then equivalent) pursuant to this Section 3.4 during such calendar year and such registrations have been declared or ordered effective and the sales of Registrable Securities under such registration statement have closed.

3.5. Obligations of the Company. Whenever required under this Section 3 to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible (but subject to providing counsel to the Holders with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on all documents):

(a) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for a period of up to one hundred twenty (120) days or, if earlier, until the distribution contemplated in the Registration Statement has been completed; provided, however, that (i) such 120-day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period the Holder refrains from selling any securities included in such registration at the request of an underwriter of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company and (ii) in the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 which are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, such 120-day period shall be extended,

12

if necessary, to keep the registration statement effective until all such Registrable Securities are sold; provided, that SEC Rule 415, or any successor rule under the Act, permits an offering on a continuous or delayed basis; and provided further that applicable rules under the Act governing the obligation to file a post-effective amendment permit, in lieu of filing a post-effective amendment which (i) includes any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Act or (ii) reflects facts or events representing a material or fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement, the incorporation by reference of information required to be included in (i) and (ii) above to be contained in periodic reports filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act in the registration statement.

(b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement in accordance with each Holder’s intended method of disposition.

(e) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement.

(f) Promptly notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Act as a result of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing.

(g) Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed.

(h) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration.

(i) Furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 3, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale in connection with a registration pursuant to this Section 3, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, copies of (i) the opinion, dated as of such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration given to the underwriters in such underwritten public offering, which opinion shall be in such form as is reasonably satisfactory to counsel to the underwriters, and (ii) the letter dated as of such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, to the underwriters in such underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, which letter shall be in such form as is reasonably satisfactory to counsel to the underwriters.

3.6. Furnish 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 selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect the registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities.

3.7. Expenses of Demand and S-3 Registrations. The Company shall pay all expenses other than underwriting discounts and commissions incurred in connection with registrations, filings, or qualifications pursuant to Sections 3.2 and 3.4, including (a) all registration, filing, and qualification fees (including filing fees with the SEC, fees due to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) and fees due for listing on any stock exchange, including Nasdaq); (b) printers and accounting fees; (c) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company; and (d) the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the selling Holders; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 3.2 or 3.4 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the Registrable Securities then held by Preferred Stock Holders to be registered (in which case all Preferred Stock Holders participating in the aborted registration shall bear such expenses), unless the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the Registrable Securities then held by Preferred Stock Holders agree to forfeit their rights to a registration under Section 3.2; provided further, however, that if at the time of such withdrawal, the Preferred Stock Holders have either (i) learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of the Company from that known to the Preferred Stock Holders at the time of their request or (ii) been informed by the underwriters of such registration that more than twenty percent (20%) of the Registrable Securities requested for registration shall not be includable therein due to market factors, and in either such case the Preferred Stock Holders have withdrawn the request with reasonable promptness following such disclosure, then the Preferred Stock Holders shall not be required to pay such expenses and shall retain their rights pursuant to Sections 3.2 and 3.4.

3.8. Expenses of “Piggy-Back” Registration. The Company shall pay all expenses incurred in connection with any registration, filing, or qualification of Registrable Securities with

14

3.9. Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Section 3.

3.10. Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement under this Section 3:

(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Act) for such Holder, and each person (if any) who controls such Holder (a “Controlling Person”) or underwriter within the meaning of the Act or the 1934 Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Act, the 1934 Act, or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions, or violations (collectively a “Violation”) (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Act, the 1934 Act, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Act, the 1934 Act, or any state securities law; and the Company will pay to each such Holder, underwriter, or Controlling Person, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 3.10(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by any such Holder, underwriter, or Controlling Person.

(b) To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder severally and not jointly will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each person (if any) who controls the Company within the meaning of the Act, any underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in such registration statement, and any controlling person of any such underwriter or other Holder, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject under the Act, the 1934 Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon (i) any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for

15

use in connection with such registration or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by such Holder of the Act, the 1934 Act, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Act, the 1934 Act, or any state securities law; and each such Holder will pay, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.10(b), in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 3.10(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of such indemnifying Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and further provided that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 3.10(b) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such indemnifying Holder.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 3.10 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 3.10, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel and participate in the defense, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 3.10, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 3.10.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 3.10 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party, on the one hand, and of the indemnified party, on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

16

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

(f) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 3.10 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement under this Section 3, and otherwise.

3.11. Reports Under Securities Exchange Act of 1934. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of SEC Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the Company agrees to use its best efforts:

(a) to make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144, at all times from and after the ninetieth (90th) day following the effective date of the first registration statement filed by the Company for the offering of its securities to the general public;

(b) to take such action, including the voluntary registration of its Common Stock under Section 12 of the 1934 Act, as is necessary to enable the Holders to utilize Form S-3 for the sale of their Registrable Securities, such action to be taken as soon as practicable after the end of the fiscal year in which the first registration statement filed by the Company for the offering of its securities to the general public is declared effective;

(c) to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Act and the 1934 Act; and

(d) to furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144 (at any time on or after the ninetieth (90th) day following the effective date of the first registration statement filed by the Company), the Act and the 1934 Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form S-3 (at any time after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC which permits the selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant to such form.

3.12. “Market Stand-Off” Agreement. Each Holder hereby agrees that, during the period of duration (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days, which period may be extended upon the request of the managing underwriter, to the extent required by any FINRA rules, for an additional 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) specified by the Company and an underwriter of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Act, such Holder shall not, to the extent requested by the Company and such underwriter,

17

directly or indirectly sell, offer to sell, contract to sell (including any short sale), grant any option to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of (other than to donees who agree to be similarly bound) any securities of the Company held by it at any time during such period except Common Stock included in such registration; provided, however, that all officers and directors of the Company enter into similar agreements. The Company agrees that it shall not release any Holder (or any officer or director referred to hereinabove) from the obligations imposed pursuant to this Section 3.12 unless all Holders are so released on a proportionate basis relative to their ownership of Registrable Securities.

In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Registrable Securities of a Holder (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end of such period.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations described in this Section 3.12 shall not apply to a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-1 or Form S-8 or similar forms which may be promulgated in the future, or a registration relating solely to a SEC Rule 145 transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms which may be promulgated in the future.

3.13. Termination of Registration Rights. No Holder shall be entitled to exercise any right provided for in this Section 3 after the earlier of (i) five (5) years following the consummation of the sale of securities pursuant to a registration statement filed by the Company under the Act in connection with the initial firm commitment underwritten offering of its securities to the general public, or (ii) when the Registrable Securities held by such Holder (together with any Affiliate of such Holder with whom such Holder must aggregate its sales under SEC Rule 144) could be sold without restriction under SEC Rule 144(b)(1) within a ninety (90) day period.

Section 3. No Other Amendments; Conflicts. No term or provision of the Agreement shall be affected by this Amendment, unless specifically set forth herein and any term or provision not affected by this Amendment shall remain in full force and effect following the date hereof. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the Agreement and the terms of this Amendment, the terms of this Amendment shall control.

Section 4. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of law principles that would result in the application of any law other than the law of the State of New York.
