-6-

Securities”) unless in each case the Corporation shall have first offered to sell to each holder of Series H Preferred (each, a “Major Investor” and collectively, the “Major Investors”) its pro rata share of the Financing Securities, at a price and on such other terms as the Corporation proposes to offer such Financing Securities to other parties and which shall have been specified by the Corporation in writing (an “Offer”) delivered to the Major Investors, which Offer by its terms shall remain open and irrevocable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date the Offer is received by the Major Investors (or, if later, within five (5) days after the giving of any written notice of a material change in such Offer). As used in this Section 2.1, a Major Investor’s “pro rata share” shall be that amount of the Financing Securities that equals (x) the aggregate amount of Financing Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, multiplied by (y) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the conversion of all shares of Preferred Stock held by such Major Investor immediately prior to the Offer and (B) the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the conversion of all shares of Preferred Stock held by all Major Investors immediately prior to the Offer. The Offer will specify (i) the aggregate amount of Financing Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (ii) the calculation of the Major Investor’s pro rata share and (iii) the number of shares, principal amount or the like of the Financing Securities which such Major Investor may purchase.

2.2. Notice of a Major Investor’s intention to accept, in whole or in part, an Offer shall be evidenced by a writing signed by the Major Investor and delivered to the Corporation at or prior to the end of the 15-day period commencing with the date the Offer is received by the Major Investor (or, if later, within 5 days after the giving of any written notice of a material change in such Offer), setting forth such portion (specifying the number of shares, principal amount or the like) of the Financing Securities as the Major Investor elects to purchase (the “Notice of Acceptance”). If a Major Investor elects to purchase its full pro rata share of Financing Securities (each, an “Electing Investor”), then such Electing Investor shall have a right of over-allotment such that if any other Major Investor fails to purchase its pro rata share (the “Non-electing Investor”), such Electing Investor may purchase, on a pro rata basis with other Electing Investors, the Non-electing Investor’s pro rata share.

2.3. The Corporation shall have 180 days from the expiration of the foregoing 15-day period to sell all or any part of such Financing Securities as to which a Notice of Acceptance has not been given by the Major Investors (the “Remaining Securities”) to any other persons or entities, but only upon terms and conditions in all material respects, including without limitation, per share price and interest rates, which are no more favorable, in the aggregate, to such other persons or entities or less favorable to the Corporation than those set forth in the Offer. Upon the closing of the sale to such other persons or entities of all or any part of the Remaining Securities, which shall include payment of the purchase price to the Corporation in accordance with the terms of the Offer, if the Major Investor has timely submitted a Notice of Acceptance, it shall purchase from the Corporation, and the Corporation shall sell to the Major Investor, the Financing Securities in respect of which a Notice of Acceptance was delivered to the Corporation by the Preferred Investor, at the terms specified in the Offer. The purchase by the Major Investor of any Financing Securities is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the Corporation and the Major Investor of a purchase agreement and other customary documentation relating to such Financing Securities as is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Preferred Investor and its counsel.

-7-

2.4. After the expiration of the 180-day period referred to in Section 2.3, any Financing Securities not purchased by the Major Investors or by a person or entity in accordance with Section 2.3 may not be sold or otherwise disposed of until they are again offered to the Major Investors under the procedures specified in Sections 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 hereof.

2.5. Each Major Investor may assign its rights under this Section 2 to its Affiliates.

SECTION 3. Right of Co-Sale.

3.1. If any Transfer Stock subject to a Proposed Transfer is not purchased pursuant to Section 6 below and thereafter is to be sold to a Prospective Transferee, each Investor which proposes to engage in a Proposed Transfer, (“Transferring Investor”) shall provide to each Investor who owns Series H Preferred, Series F Preferred, Series E Preferred, Series D Preferred or Series C Preferred (each, a “ROFR/Co-Sale Investor”) a Proposed Transfer Notice. Each ROFR/Co-Sale Investor may elect to exercise its Right of Co-Sale and participate in the Proposed Transfer on a pro rata basis as set forth below and otherwise on the same terms and conditions specified in the Proposed Transfer Notice (provided that if the Proposed Transfer is a transfer of Common Stock and a ROFR/Co-Sale Investor wishes to sell Preferred Stock, the price set forth in the Proposed Transfer Notice shall be appropriately adjusted based on the conversion ratio of the Preferred Stock into Common Stock). Each ROFR/Co-Sale Investor who desires to exercise its Right of Co-Sale must give the Transferring Investor written notice to that effect within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Proposed Transfer Notice, and upon giving such notice, such Investor shall be deemed to have effectively exercised the Right of Co-Sale.

3.2. Each ROFR/Co-Sale Investor who timely exercises such ROFR/Co-Sale Investor’s Right of Co-Sale by delivering the written notice provided for above in Section 3.1 may include in the Proposed Transfer all or any part of such ROFR/Co-Sale Investor’s Capital Stock equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the aggregate number of shares of Capital Stock subject to the Proposed Transfer by (ii) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the conversion of all shares of Preferred Stock held by such ROFR/Co-Sale Investor immediately before consummation of the Proposed Transfer and (B) the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the conversion of all shares of Preferred Stock held by all ROFR/Co-Sale Investors immediately before consummation of the Proposed Transfer, plus the number of shares of Common Stock and shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of all shares of Preferred Stock held by the Transferring Investor immediately before consummation of the Proposed Transfer. To the extent one or more ROFR/Co-Sale Investors exercise a Right of Co-Sale, the number of shares of Capital Stock that the Transferring Investor may sell in the Proposed Transfer shall be correspondingly reduced.

3.3. Each ROFR/Co-Sale Investor who timely exercises its Right of Co-Sale shall deliver to the Transferring Investor, no later than fifteen (15) days after such ROFR/Co-Sale Investor’s exercise of the Right of Co-Sale, one or more stock certificates, properly endorsed for transfer to the prospective transferee, representing the number of shares of Common Stock that such ROFR/Co-Sale Investor elects to include in the Proposed Transfer or the number of shares of Preferred Stock that is at such time convertible into the number of shares

-8-

of Common Stock that such ROFR/Co-Sale Investor elects to include in the Proposed Transfer; provided, however, that if the prospective transferee objects to the delivery of convertible Preferred Stock in lieu of Common Stock, such ROFR/Co-Sale Investor shall first convert the Preferred Stock into Common Stock and deliver Common Stock as provided above. The Corporation agrees to make any such conversion concurrent with and contingent upon the actual transfer of such shares to the prospective transferee.

3.4. Each stock certificate that a ROFR/Co-Sale Investor delivers to the Transferring Investor pursuant to this Section 3 will be transferred to the prospective transferee against payment therefor in consummation of the sale thereof pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in the Proposed Transfer Notice and the purchase and sale agreement, and the Transferring Investor shall concurrently therewith remit or direct payment to each ROFR/Co-Sale Investor of the portion of the sale proceeds to which such ROFR/Co-Sale Investor is entitled by reason of its participation in such sale. If any prospective transferee refuses to purchase securities subject to the Right of Co-Sale from any ROFR/Co-Sale Investor exercising its Right of Co-Sale hereunder, none of the ROFR/Co-Sale Investors or the Transferring Investor may sell any Capital Stock to such prospective transferee unless and until, simultaneously with such sale, such Transferring Investor purchases all Capital Stock subject to the Right of Co-Sale from the ROFR/Co-Sale Investor exercising its Right of Co-Sale on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Proposed Transfer Notice.

3.5. If any Proposed Transfer is not consummated within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Proposed Transfer Notice, the Transferring Investor(s) proposing the Proposed Transfer may not sell any Capital Stock unless they first comply in full with each provision of this Section 3. The exercise or election not to exercise any right by a ROFR/Co-Sale Investor hereunder shall not adversely affect such ROFR/Co-Sale Investor’s right to participate in any other sales of Capital Stock subject to Section 3.

(d) not to deposit, and to cause their Affiliates not to deposit, except as provided in this Agreement, any Capital Stock owned by such Investor or Affiliate in a voting trust or subject any Capital Stock to any arrangement or agreement with respect to the voting of such Capital Stock, unless specifically requested to do so by the acquiror in connection with the Sale of the Corporation;

(e) to refrain from exercising any dissenters’ rights or rights of appraisal under applicable law at any time with respect to such Sale of the Corporation; and

(f) if the consideration to be paid in exchange for the Capital Stock pursuant to this Section 5 includes any securities and due receipt thereof by any Investor would require under applicable law (x) the registration or qualification of such securities or of any person as a broker or dealer or agent with respect to such securities or (y) the provision to any Investor of any information other than information as a prudent issuer would generally furnish in an offering made solely to “accredited investors” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, the Corporation may cause to be paid to any such Investor in lieu thereof, against surrender of the Capital Stock which would have otherwise been sold by such Investor, an amount in cash equal to the fair value (as determined in good faith by the Corporation) of the securities which such Investor would otherwise receive as of the date of the issuance of such securities in exchange for the Capital Stock.

5.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Investor will not be required to comply with Section 5.2.(b) above in connection with any proposed Sale of the Corporation (the “Proposed Sale”) unless:

(a) any representations and warranties to be made by such Investor in connection with the Proposed Sale are limited to representations and warranties related to authority, ownership and the ability to convey title to such Capital Stock, including but not limited to representations and warranties that (a) the Investor holds all right, title and interest in and to the Capital Stock such Investor purports to hold, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, (b) the obligations of the Investor in connection with the transaction have been duly authorized, if applicable, (c) the documents to be entered into by the Investor have been duly executed by the Investor and delivered to the acquirer and are enforceable against the Investor in accordance with their respective terms and (d) neither the execution and delivery of documents to be entered into in connection with the transaction, nor the performance of the Investor’s obligations thereunder, will cause a breach or violation of the terms of any agreement, law or judgment, order or decree of any court or governmental agency;

(b) the Investor is not required to agree (unless such Investor is an officer or employee of the Corporation) to any covenant not to compete or exclusivity covenant in connection with the Proposed Sale);

(c) the Investor shall not be liable for the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by any other person in connection with the Proposed Sale, other than the Corporation (except to the extent that funds may be paid out of an escrow established to cover breach of representations, warranties and covenants of the Corporation as well as breach by any Investor of any of identical representations, warranties and covenants provided by all Investors);

-13-

(d) the liability for indemnification, if any, of such Investor in the Proposed Sale and for the inaccuracy of any representations and warranties made by the Corporation or its Investors in connection with such Proposed Sale, is several and not joint with any other Person (except to the extent that funds may be paid out of an escrow established to cover breach of representations, warranties and covenants of the Corporation as well as breach by any Investor of any of identical representations, warranties and covenants provided by all Investors), and is pro rata in proportion to, and does not exceed, the amount of consideration paid to such Investor in connection with such Proposed Sale;

(e) liability shall be limited to such Investor’s applicable share (determined based on the respective proceeds payable to each Investor in connection with such Proposed Sale in accordance with the provisions of the Certificate) of a negotiated aggregate indemnification amount that applies equally to all Investors but that in no event exceeds the amount of consideration otherwise payable to such Investor in connection with such Proposed Sale, except with respect to claims related to fraud by such Investor, the liability for which need not be limited as to such Investor;

(f) upon the consummation of the Proposed Sale, (i) each holder of each class or series of the Corporation’s stock will receive the same form of consideration for their shares of such class or series as is received by other holders in respect of their shares of such same class or series of stock, (ii) each holder of a series of Preferred Stock will receive the same amount of consideration per share of such series of Preferred Stock as is received by other holders in respect of their shares of such same series, (iii) each holder of Common Stock will receive the same amount of consideration per share of Common Stock as is received by other holders in respect of their shares of Common Stock, and (iv) the aggregate consideration receivable by all holders of the Preferred Stock and Common Stock shall be allocated among the holders of Preferred Stock and Common Stock on the basis of the relative liquidation preferences to which the holders of each respective series of Preferred Stock and the holders of Common Stock are entitled in a Deemed Liquidation Event (assuming for this purpose that the Proposed Sale is a Deemed Liquidation Event) in accordance with the Certificate in effect immediately prior to the Proposed Sale; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the consideration to be paid in exchange for an Investor’s Capital Stock pursuant to this 5.2.(e) includes any securities and due receipt thereof by any Investor would require under applicable law (x) the registration or qualification of such securities or of any person as a broker or dealer or agent with respect to such securities or (y) the provision to any Investor of any information other than such information as a prudent issuer would generally furnish in an offering made solely to “accredited investors” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, the Corporation may cause to be paid to any such Investor in lieu thereof, against surrender of the Investor’s Capital Stock which would have otherwise been sold by such Investor, an amount in cash equal to the fair value (as determined in good faith by the Corporation) of the securities which such Investor would otherwise receive as of the date of the issuance of such securities in exchange for the Investor’s Capital Stock; and

-14-

(g) subject to the immediately preceding paragraph, requiring the same form of consideration to be available to the holders of any single class or series of capital stock, if any holders of any capital stock of the Corporation are given an option as to the form and amount of consideration to be received as a result of the Proposed Sale, all holders of such capital stock will be given the same option; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 5.2.(f) shall entitle any holder to receive any form of consideration that such holder would be ineligible to receive as a result of such holder’s failure to satisfy any condition, requirement or limitation that is generally applicable to the Corporation’s Investors.

5.4. Proxy. Each Investor hereby grants to the Selling Investors (i) an irrevocable proxy, coupled with an interest, to Vote all Voting Securities owned by such Investor, and (ii) an irrevocable power of attorney, which is coupled with an interest, to take such other actions, in each case to the extent necessary to carry out the provisions of this Section 5 in the event of any breach by such Investor of its obligations hereunder.

SECTION 6. Right of First Refusal.

6.1. Grant. Subject to the terms of Section 7 below, each Investor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to the Corporation a Right of First Refusal to purchase all or any portion of Transfer Stock that such Transferring Investor may propose to transfer in a Proposed Transfer, at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as those offered to the Prospective Transferee.

6.2. Notice. Each Investor proposing to make a Proposed Transfer must deliver a Proposed Transfer Notice to the Corporation and each Investor not later than forty-five (45) days prior to the consummation of such Proposed Transfer. Such Proposed Transfer Notice shall contain the material terms and conditions (including price and form of consideration) of the Proposed Transfer, the identity of the prospective transferee and the intended date of the Proposed Transfer. To exercise its Right of First Refusal under this Section 6, the Corporation must deliver a Corporation Notice to the Transferring Investor and the Investors within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Proposed Transfer Notice specifying the number of shares of Transfer Stock to be purchased by the Corporation. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and any other agreement that may have been entered into by an Investor with the Corporation that contains a preexisting right of first refusal, the Corporation and the Investor acknowledge and agree that the terms of this Agreement shall control and the preexisting right of first refusal shall be deemed satisfied by compliance with Subsection 6.1 and this Subsection 6.2.

6.3. Grant of Secondary Refusal Right to Investors. Subject to the terms of Section 7 below, each Investor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to the ROFR/Co-Sale Investors a Secondary Refusal Right to purchase all or any portion of the Transfer Stock not purchased by the Corporation pursuant to the Right of First Refusal, as provided in this Subsection 6.3. If the Corporation does not provide the Corporation Notice exercising its Right of First Refusal with respect to all Transfer Stock subject to a Proposed Transfer, the Corporation must deliver a Secondary Notice to the Transferring Investor and to each other ROFR/Co-Sale Investor to that effect no later than fifteen (15) days after the Transferring Investor delivers the Proposed Transfer Notice to the Corporation. To exercise its Secondary Refusal Right, a ROFR/Co-Sale Investor must deliver an Investor Notice to the Transferring Investor and the Corporation within ten (10) days after the Corporation’s deadline for its delivery of the Secondary Notice as provided in the preceding sentence.

-15-

6.4. Undersubscription of Transfer Stock. If options to purchase have been exercised by the Corporation and the ROFR/Co-Sale Investors pursuant to Subsections 6.2 and 6.3 with respect to some but not all of the Transfer Stock by the end of the ten (10) day period specified in the last sentence of Subsection 6.3 (the “Investor Notice Period”), then the Corporation shall, within five (5) days after the expiration of the Investor Notice Period, send written notice (the “Corporation Undersubscription Notice”) to those ROFR/Co-Sale Investors who fully exercised their Secondary Refusal Right within the Investor Notice Period (the “Exercising Investors”). Each Exercising Investor shall, subject to the provisions of this Subsection 6.4, have an additional option to purchase all or any part of the balance of any such remaining unsubscribed shares of Transfer Stock on the terms and conditions set forth in the Proposed Transfer Notice. To exercise such option, an Exercising Investor must deliver an Undersubscription Notice to the Transferring Investor and the Corporation within ten (10) days after the expiration of the Investor Notice Period. In the event there are two (2) or more such Exercising Investors that choose to exercise the last-mentioned option for a total number of remaining shares in excess of the number available, the remaining shares available for purchase under this Subsection 6.4 shall be allocated to such Exercising Investors pro rata based on the number of shares of Transfer Stock such Exercising Investors have elected to purchase pursuant to the Secondary Refusal Right (without giving effect to any shares of Transfer Stock that any such Exercising Investor has elected to purchase pursuant to the Corporation Undersubscription Notice). If the options to purchase the remaining shares are exercised in full by the Exercising Investors, the Corporation shall reasonably promptly notify all of the Exercising Investors and the Transferring Investor of that fact.

6.5. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the total number of shares of Transfer Stock that the Corporation and the ROFR/Co-Sale Investors have agreed to purchase in the Corporation Notice, Investor Notices and Undersubscription Notices is less than the total number of shares of Transfer Stock, then the Corporation and the ROFR/Co-Sale Investors shall be deemed to have forfeited any right to purchase such Transfer Stock, and the Transferring Investor shall be free to sell all, but not less than all, of the Transfer Stock to the Prospective Transferee on terms and conditions substantially similar to (and in no event more favorable than) the terms and conditions set forth in the Proposed Transfer Notice, it being understood and agreed that (i) any such sale or transfer shall be subject to the other terms and restrictions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the terms and restrictions set forth in Sections 3 and Subsection 10.13; (ii) any future Proposed Transfer shall remain subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including this Section 6; and (iii) such sale shall be consummated within forty-five (45) days after receipt of the Proposed Transfer Notice by the Corporation and, if such sale is not consummated within such forty-five (45) day period, such sale shall again become subject to the Right of First Refusal and Secondary Refusal Right on the terms set forth herein.

6.6. Consideration; Closing. If the consideration proposed to be paid for the Transfer Stock is in property, services or other non-cash consideration, the fair market value of the consideration shall be as determined in good faith by the Board and as set forth in the Corporation Notice. If the Corporation or any ROFR/Co-Sale Investor cannot for any reason

-16-

pay for the Transfer Stock in the same form of non-cash consideration, the Corporation or such ROFR/Co-Sale Investor may pay the cash value equivalent thereof, as determined in good faith by the Board and as set forth in the Corporation Notice. The closing of the purchase of Transfer Stock by the Corporation and the ROFR/Co-Sale Investors shall take place, and all payments from the Corporation and the ROFR/Co-Sale Investors shall have been delivered to the Transferring Investor, by the later of (i) the date specified in the Proposed Transfer Notice as the intended date of the Proposed Transfer; and (ii) forty-five (45) days after delivery of the Proposed Transfer Notice.

SECTION 7. Exempt Transfers.

7.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, the provisions of Sections 3 and 6 shall not apply (a) in the case of an Investor that is an entity, upon a transfer by such Investor to its Affiliates, stockholders, members, partners or other equity holders, (b) to a repurchase of Transfer Stock from an Investor by the Corporation at a price no greater than that originally paid by such Investor for such Transfer Stock and pursuant to an agreement containing vesting and/or repurchase provisions approved by a majority of the Board, or (c) in the case of an Investor that is a natural person, upon a transfer of Transfer Stock by such Investor made for bona fide estate planning purposes, either during his or her lifetime or on death by will or intestacy to his or her spouse, child (natural or adopted), or any other direct lineal descendant of such Investor (or his or her spouse) (all of the foregoing collectively referred to as “family members”), or any other person approved by unanimous consent of the Board, or any custodian or trustee of any trust, partnership or limited liability company for the benefit of, or the ownership interests of which are owned wholly by such Investor or any such family members, or (in the case of an Investor that is a trust) solely to any beneficiary of such trust, any family members of any such beneficiary or any other trust established solely for the benefit of any such beneficiary or family member thereof; or (d) to the sale by the Investor of up to 1% of the Transfer Stock held by such Investor as of the date that such Investor first became party to this Agreement; provided that in the case of clause(s) (a), (c), or (d), such Investor shall deliver prior written notice to the Investors of such pledge, gift or transfer and such shares of Transfer Stock shall at all times remain subject to the terms and restrictions set forth in this Agreement and such transferee shall, as a condition to such issuance, deliver a counterpart signature page to this Agreement as confirmation that such transferee shall be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement as an Investor (but only with respect to the securities so transferred to the transferee), including the obligations of an Investor with respect to Proposed Transfers of such Transfer Stock pursuant to Sections 3 and 6; and provided further in the case of any transfer pursuant to clause (a) or (c) above, that such transfer is made pursuant to a transaction in which there is no consideration actually paid for such transfer.

7.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, the provisions of Section 6 shall not apply to the sale of any Transfer Stock (a) to the public in an offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act; or (b) pursuant to a Deemed Liquidation Event.

7.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Investor shall transfer any Transfer Stock to (a) any entity which, in the determination of the Board, directly or indirectly competes with the Corporation; or (b) any customer, distributor or supplier of the Corporation, if the Board should determine that such transfer would result in such customer, distributor or supplier receiving information that would place the Corporation at a competitive disadvantage with respect to such customer, distributor or supplier.

-17-

SECTION 8. “Market Stand-Off” Agreement.

8.1. Each Investor hereby agrees that, for a period of duration specified by the Corporation and an underwriter of common stock or other securities of the Corporation (such period not to exceed 180 days) following the effective date of the first registration statement of the Corporation filed under the Securities Act, which covers securities to be sold on the Corporation’s behalf to the public in an underwritten offering, it shall not, to the extent requested by the Corporation and its underwriter, directly or indirectly sell, offer to sell, contract to sell (including, without limitation, 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 Corporation held by it at any time during such period except Registrable Securities included in such registration; provided, however, that such agreement shall not be required unless all officers and directors of the Corporation and all other persons with registration rights (whether or not pursuant to this Agreement) enter into similar agreements. Any discretionary waiver or termination of the restrictions of any or all of such agreements by the Corporation or the underwriters shall apply pro rata to all Investors subject to such agreements, based on the number of shares subject to such agreements, subject to customary exceptions. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Corporation may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Registrable Securities of each Investor (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end of such period.

SECTION 9. Reverse Stock Split.

9.1. If the Corporation does not complete a firm-commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act prior to December 31, 2019, the Corporation and the Investors each agree in good faith to take all actions necessary to effect a reverse stock split on terms and at a time reasonably acceptable to the Requisite Majority, including H.I.G., provided however that this Section 9.1 may be waived solely by the written consent of H.I.G.

SECTION 10. Miscellaneous.

10.1. Voting Agreement. In the event that the taking of any one or more of the actions listed in Article Fourth, Section 7 of the Certificate (an “Approved Action”) would require a separate vote by the holders of either of the Series A-3 Preferred or the Series B-3 Preferred under Section 242(b)(2) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, then, in such event, each holder of Series A-3 Preferred and Series B-3 Preferred, as applicable, hereby agrees, with respect to all shares of Series A-3 Preferred or Series B-3 Preferred over which he, she or it exercises voting or dispositive authority, to Vote all of such Series A-3 Preferred or Series B-3 Preferred in favor of the Approved Action if the holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding Senior Preferred, voting together as a single class, Vote to approve the taking of such Approved Action.

-18-

10.2. Assignment of Rights. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the parties’ respective successors, assigns and legal representatives; provided, however, that the rights of the Investors hereunder are only assignable to a assignee or transferee (i) who acquires all of the securities of the Corporation purchased by an Investor or at least ten percent (10%) of such class and series of securities or (ii) who is a partner or retired partner of a partnership, and it shall be a requirement of such transfer that such assignee shall then become a party to this Agreement.

10.3. Term. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the closing of a firmly underwritten initial public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or (ii) the acquisition of the Corporation by another entity by means of any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, any reorganization, merger or consolidation) or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, unless the Corporation’s stockholders of record as constituted immediately prior to such acquisition or sale will, immediately after such acquisition or sale (by virtue of securities issued as consideration for the Corporation’s acquisition or sale or otherwise) hold at least 50% of the voting power of the surviving or acquiring entity.

10.4. Waivers and Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or waived at any time, unless such amendment, modification or waiver is first approved in writing by (a) the Requisite Majority and (b) the Corporation; provided, however, that (i) if any amendment, modification or waiver would apply to an Investor (each, an “Adversely Affected Investor”) in a fashion different than how such amendment, modification or waiver applies to all Investors, then such amendment, modification or waiver shall not be effective as to such Adversely Affected Investor unless consented to by such Adversely Affected Investor, (ii) any amendment, modification or waiver of Section 4.1.(a)(i)(A), Section 4.1.(b) (insofar as it relates to the Sun Mountain Director), or of this clause (ii) shall require the approval of Sun Mountain if at the time of such amendment, modification or waiver, Sun Mountain is entitled to designate a Senior Preferred Director pursuant to Section 4.1.(a)(i)(A), (iii) any amendment, modification or waiver of Section 4.1.(a)(i)(B), Section 4.1.(b) (insofar as it relates to the Tullis Director), or of this clause (iii) shall require the approval of Tullis if at the time of such amendment, modification or waiver, Tullis is entitled to designate a Senior Preferred Director pursuant to Section 4.1.(a)(i)(B), (iv) any amendment, modification or waiver of Section 4.1.(a)(i)(C), Section 4.1.(b) (insofar as it relates to the PCM/Hunt Director) or of this clause (iv) shall require the approval of PCM/Hunt if at the time of such amendment, modification or waiver, PCM/Hunt is entitled to designate a Senior Preferred Director pursuant to Section 4.1.(a)(i)(C), (v) any amendment, modification or waiver of Section 4.1(a)(i)(D), Section 4.1(b) (insofar as it relates to the H.I.G. Director), Section 4.1(g), or of this clause (v) shall require the approval of H.I.G. if at the time of such amendment, modification or waiver, H.I.G. is entitled to designate a Senior Preferred Director pursuant to Section 4.1(a)(i)(D), or (v) any amendment, modification or waiver of Section 4.1(a)(iii), Section 4.1(a)(iv), Section 4.1(b) (in so far as it relates to an Independent Director or the Additional Director) or of this clause (v) shall require the consent of the Requisite Majority. Any amendment, modification or waiver so effected shall be binding upon the Corporation, each of the parties hereto and any assignee of any such party. In addition, the Corporation may waive performance of any obligation owing to it, as to some or all of the Investors, or agree to accept alternatives to such performance, without obtaining the consent of any Investor. No waiver of any breach of this Agreement extended by any party hereto to any other party shall be construed as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any other party hereto or with respect to any subsequent breach.

-19-

10.5. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regards to conflict of laws principles. Each of the Corporation and the Investors: (i) agrees that any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be instituted exclusively in New York Supreme Court, County of New York, or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, (ii) waives any objection which it may have or hereafter to the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding, and (iii) irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of the New York Supreme Court, County of New York, and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in any such suit, action or proceeding.

10.6. Effectiveness; Entire Agreement; Waiver of Preemptive Rights. This Agreement shall become effective concurrently with the consummation of the purchase and sale of the Series H Preferred under the Series H Purchase Agreement at the Closing. This Agreement and the other documents delivered in connection herewith constitute the full and entire understanding of the parties with regard to the subjects hereof and thereof. Upon execution of this Agreement by the Corporation, Burrell Diversified Investments, LLC, and the Existing Investors owning at least 52% of the issued and outstanding shares of Series G Preferred, Series F Preferred, Series E Preferred, Series D Preferred, Series C Preferred and the Series B-3 Preferred, voting together as a single class, the Prior Agreement shall thereafter be of no further force and effect and is hereby amended in its entirety and restated herein, and all provisions of rights granted and covenants made in the Prior Agreement are hereby waived, released and superseded in their entirety and shall have no further force or effect including, without limitation, all preemptive rights or rights of first offer and any notice period associated therewith otherwise applicable to the transactions contemplated by the Series H Purchase Agreement.

All Notices shall be deemed effectively given: (x) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (y) three (3) days after having been sent by first class mail, postage prepaid, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested and (z) one (1) day after deposit with an overnight courier service.

10.8. Severability. In case any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

-20-

The parties hereto hereby declare that it is impossible to measure in money the damages which will accrue to a party hereto or to their heirs, personal representatives, successors or assigns by reason of the failure of a party to perform any of the obligations under this Agreement and agree that the terms of this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable.
