The Shelf Registration Statement shall provide for the distribution or resale pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to the Holders.

(b)The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to remain effective, and to be supplemented and amended as promptly as practicable to the extent necessary to ensure that the Shelf Registration Statement is available or, if not available, that another Registration Statement is available, for the resale of all of the Registrable Securities by the Holders from time to time as permitted by Rule 415 until all of the Registrable Securities have ceased to be Registrable Securities or the earlier termination of this Agreement as to all Holders pursuant to Section 6.1.

(c)When effective, the Shelf Registration Statement (including the documents incorporated therein by reference) will comply as to form in all material respects with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of any prospectus contained in the Shelf Registration Statement, in the light of the circumstances under which such statements are made).

Section 2.2 Delay and Suspension Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company may (a) delay the filing or effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement or (b) suspend the Holders’ use of any prospectus that is a part of a Shelf Registration Statement upon written notice to each Holder whose Registrable Securities are included in such Shelf Registration Statement (in which event such Holder shall discontinue sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement but may settle any then-contracted sales of Registrable Securities), in each case, for a period of up to forty-five (45) consecutive days, if the Board determines, in its good faith judgment, (i) that such registration or offering would materially adversely interfere with any pending material financing or material acquisition, disposition, securities offering, merger, recapitalization, consolidation or reorganization or similar transaction involving the Company or (ii) that such registration or offering would require premature disclosure of material nonpublic information that is not otherwise then required by applicable law to be publicly disclosed, the premature disclosure of which could materially and adversely affect the Company (any such period, a “Suspension Period”); provided, however, that in no event shall any Suspension Periods collectively exceed an aggregate of ninety (90) days in any 12-month period; provided, further, that the number of days that the Company may so delay or suspend in accordance with this Section 2.2 in any 12-month period shall be reduced by the Section 2.3 Piggyback Registration Rights.

Subject to Section 2.3(c), if the Company at any time proposes to file an Underwritten Offering Filing for an Underwritten Offering of shares of Common Stock for its own

account or for the account of any other Persons who have been granted registration rights, other than the Holders (a “Piggyback Underwritten Offering”), it will give written notice of such Piggyback Underwritten Offering to each Holder (other than any Opt-Out Holder), which notice shall include the anticipated filing date of the Underwritten Offering Filing and, if known, the number of shares of Common Stock that are proposed to be included in such Piggyback Underwritten Offering. Such notice shall be given promptly (and in any event at least five (5) Business Days before the filing of the Underwritten Offering Filing or two (2) Business Days before the filing of the Underwritten Offering Filing in connection with a bought or overnight Underwritten Offering). Each such Holder shall keep such notice from the Company and the fact of such Piggyback Underwritten Offering strictly confidential and not use or disclose such notice or information to any Person other than such Holder’s legal counsel. Each such Holder shall then have three (3) Business Days (or one (1) Business Day in the case of a bought or overnight Underwritten Offering) after the date on which the Holders received notice pursuant to this Section 2.3(a) to request inclusion of Registrable Securities in the Piggyback Underwritten Offering (which request shall specify the maximum number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Holder and such other information as is reasonably required to effect the inclusion of such Registrable Securities) (any such Holder making such request, a “Piggybacking Holder”). If no request for inclusion from a Holder is received within such period, such Holder shall have no further right to participate in such Piggyback Underwritten Offering. Subject to Section 2.3(c), the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in the Piggyback Underwritten Offering all Registrable Securities that the Company has been so requested to include by the Piggybacking Holders; provided, however, that if, at any time after giving written notice of a proposed Piggyback Underwritten Offering pursuant to this Section 2.3(a), the Company or such other Persons who have been granted registration rights, as applicable, shall determine for any reason not to proceed with or to delay such Piggyback Underwritten Offering, the Company shall give written notice of such determination to the Piggybacking Holders and (i) in the case of a determination not to proceed, shall be relieved of its obligation to include any Registrable Securities in such Piggyback Underwritten Offering, and

(ii) in the case of a determination to delay, shall be permitted to delay inclusion of any Registrable Securities for the same period as the delay in including the shares of Common Stock to be sold for the Company’s account or for the account of such other Persons who have been granted registration rights, as applicable.

(d)Each Piggybacking Holder shall have the right to withdraw its request for inclusion of its Registrable Securities in any Piggyback Underwritten Offering at any time prior to the execution of an underwriting agreement with respect thereto by giving written notice to the Company of its request to withdraw.

Priority of Rights. If the Managing Underwriter of the Piggyback Underwritten Offering shall inform the Company of its belief that the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Piggyback Underwritten Offering, when added to the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be offered by the Company or such other Persons who have been granted registration rights would adversely affect such offering, then the Company shall include in such Piggyback Underwritten Offering, to the extent of the total number of securities which the Company is so advised can be sold in such offering without so adversely affecting such offering (the “Maximum Piggyback Number of Shares”), shares of Common Stock in the following priority: (i) if the Piggyback Underwritten Offering is initiated for the account of

the Company, (1) first, the Company Securities; (2) second, to the extent that the number of Company Securities is less than the Maximum Piggyback Number of Shares, the Holder Securities proposed to be included, pro rata among the Holders based on the number of shares of Common Stock each requested to be included, and (3) third, to the extent that the number of Company Securities plus the number of Holder Securities proposed to be included is less than the Maximum Piggyback Number of Shares, the shares of Common Stock that other Persons who have been granted registration rights propose to include, pro rata among such other Persons based on the number of shares of Common Stock each requested to be included and (ii) if the Piggyback Underwritten Offering is initiated for the account of any Other Holder(s), (1) first, the Other Holder Securities for whose account the Piggyback Underwritten Offering is initiated, pro rata among such Other Holders based on the number of shares of Common Stock each requested to be included, (2) second, to the extent that the number of securities of such Other Holders is less than the Maximum Piggyback Number of Shares, the Holder Securities and any Other Holder Securities for whose account the Piggyback Underwritten Offering was not initiated, pro rata among such Holders and Other Holders based on the number of shares of Common Stock each requested to be included, (3) third, to the extent that the number of securities of such Other Holders and such Holders and Other Holders is less than the Maximum Piggyback Number of Shares, the shares of Common Stock that other Persons who have been granted registration rights propose to include, pro rata among such other Persons based on the number of shares of Common Stock each requested to be included, and (4) fourth, to the extent that the aggregate number of securities in immediately preceding clauses (1)-(3) is less than the Maximum Piggyback Number of Shares, any Company Securities.

(e)At-the-Market Offerings. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.3 to the contrary, no Holder shall have any right to include any securities in any offering by the Company of securities executed pursuant to any “at the market” program that the Company may have in effect from time to time on or after the date of this Agreement.

(f)Termination of Piggyback Registration Rights. The rights granted to Holders to participate in a Piggyback Underwritten Offering pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall terminate automatically upon such Holder, together with its Affiliates ceasing to hold at least [To include half of the number of shares issued at Closing] shares of Registrable Securities. Such Holder shall as promptly as possible notify the Company in writing when such Holder, together with its Affiliates, hold less than [To include half of the number of shares issued at Closing] shares of Registrable Securities.

Section 2.4    Participation in Underwritten Offerings.

No Holder may sell Registrable Securities in any Underwritten Offering contemplated by Section 2.3 unless it agrees to sell such Registrable Securities on the same basis provided in the underwriting or other distribution arrangements approved by the Company or, to the extent of an Underwritten Offering initiated by Other Holders, such Other Holders and completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, lockups and other customary documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such arrangements; provided, however, that no Holder shall be required to make any representations or warranties to the Company or any underwriter (other than representations and warranties regarding such Holder’s ownership of its Registrable Securities to be sold or

transferred, such Holder’s power and authority to effect such transfer, and such matters pertaining to compliance with securities laws as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the underwriters, and such other representations, warranties and other provisions relating to such Holder’s participation in such Underwritten Offering as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters) or to undertake any indemnification obligations to the Company with respect thereto, except as otherwise provided in Article III.

(g)In connection with any Piggyback Underwritten Offering in which any Piggybacking Holder includes Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2.3, such Piggybacking Holder agrees if reasonably requested by the Managing Underwriter, not to effect any public sale or distribution of the Registrable Securities for a period following completion of such Underwritten Offering no longer than the duration of the shortest restriction generally imposed by the underwriters of such public sale or distribution on the Company or on its executive officers and directors or any stockholder of the Company on whom a restriction is imposed. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Holder participating in such offering shall be required to sign a lock-up agreement that contains restrictions that are more restrictive than the restrictions contained in the lock-up agreements executed by any other holder of Common Stock participating in such offering, and (b) each Holder shall be released, pro rata, from any lock-up agreement entered into pursuant to this Section 2.3(b) in the event and to the extent that the Managing Underwriter or the Company permit any discretionary waiver or termination of the restrictions of any lock-up agreement pertaining to any executive officer, director or participating holder of Common Stock.

Promptly after receipt of notice of the commencement of any action or claim involving any Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 3.2, such Person (the “Indemnified Party”) shall notify the Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing (provided that the failure of the Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article III, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice), and the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in such Proceeding and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof 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 other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that (a) if the Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense or employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, (b) if such Indemnified Party who is a defendant in any Proceeding that is also brought against the Indemnifying Party reasonably shall have concluded that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such Indemnified Party that are not available to the Indemnifying Party or (c) if the interests of the Indemnified Party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the

interests of the Indemnifying Party, then, in any such case, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to assume its own defense (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 that there may be legal defenses available to such party or parties that 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 reasonable expenses therefor. If such defense is assumed by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the Indemnified Party without consent of the Indemnifying Party (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). No Indemnifying Party shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect the settlement of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder unless such settlement or judgment includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such action or claim.

Section 3.4    Contribution.

(a)If the indemnification provided for in this Article III is unavailable to an Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses in respect of which indemnity is to be provided hereunder, then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall to the fullest extent permitted by law contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses as between the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other hand in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such party in connection with the statements or omissions or actions that resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that in no event shall a Holder be required to contribute an aggregate amount in excess of the dollar amount of proceeds (net of such Holder’s Selling Expenses) received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification. The relative fault of the

Company (on the one hand) and a Holder (on the other hand) shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company and each Holder agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Article III were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 3.4(a). The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the Losses, referred to in Section 3.4(a) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such Loss which is the subject of Section 3.4(a). No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission that may permit the resale of the Registrable Securities without registration, the Company agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to:

(a)make and keep public information regarding the Company available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, at all times from and after the date hereof;

(b)file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act at all times from and after the date hereof;

(c)so long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish unless otherwise available via the Commission’s EDGAR filing system, to such Holder forthwith upon request a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed as such Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing such Holder to sell any such securities without registration; and

(d)take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request to enable the Holders to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitations of the exemption provided by Rule 144, including, without limitation, delivering customary legal opinions, consents, certificates, resolutions and instructions to the Company’s transfer agent without unreasonable delay, and in each case as may be reasonably requested from time to time by the Holder, and otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Holder and Holder’s broker in their efforts to effect such sale of securities pursuant to Rule 144.

All or any portion of the rights and obligations of any Holder under this Agreement may be transferred or assigned by such Holder only in accordance with this Article V. The rights to cause the Company to include Registrable Securities in any registration statement contemplated by this Agreement may be transferred or assigned by any Holder with a transfer of Registrable Securities to any Affiliate of such Holder that is not a portfolio company; provided, however, that the Company is given written notice prior to any said transfer or assignment, stating the name and address of each such transferee and identifying the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned and as a condition to the effectiveness of such transfer, each such transferee or assignee assumes in writing responsibility for its portion of the obligations of such Holder under this Agreement whereupon such transferee shall become a “Holder” for all purposes of this Agreement. The Company may not transfer or assign any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Registrable Securities, except that the Company may assign this Agreement at any time in connection with a sale or acquisition of the Company, whether by

merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, or similar transaction.

Section 6.1 Termination. This Agreement shall terminate as to any Holder when such Holder no longer owns any shares of Common Stock that constitute Registrable Securities; provided, however, that Article III and this Article VI shall survive any termination hereof.

Section 6.2 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement, or any application thereof, is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect under any law, this Agreement shall be reformed to the extent necessary to conform, in each case consistent with the intention of the parties, to such law, and, to the extent such provision cannot be so reformed, then such provision (or the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable application thereof) shall be deemed deleted from (or prohibited under) this Agreement, as the case may be, and the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein (and any other application of such provision) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 6.3 Captions. The captions in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be considered a part of or affect the construction or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 6.4 Remedies. In the event of actual or potential breach by the Company of any of its obligations under this Agreement, each Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and under this Agreement, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not provide adequate compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this Agreement and further agrees that, in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

Section 6.5    Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a)This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws that would direct the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.

(b)THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANOTHER IN ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF, IN RELATION TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 6.6 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the permitted successors and assigns of each of the parties hereto, including subsequent Holders to the extent permitted herein.

Section 6.7 Notices. All notices, requests and other communications to any party under or otherwise in connection with this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) if delivered in person; (b) if transmitted by electronic mail (“e-mail”) (following appropriate confirmation of receipt by return email, including an automated confirmation of receipt; provided, however, that each notice party shall use reasonable best efforts to confirm receipt of any such email correspondence promptly upon receipt of such request); (c) if sent by certified or registered United States mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested), or
