RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by the Option until the date of the issuance of the shares for which the Option has been exercised (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date the shares are issued, except as provided in Section 9. If the Participant is an Employee, the Participant understands and acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in a separate, written employment agreement between a Participating Company and the Participant, the Participant’s employment is “at will” and is for no specified term. Nothing in this Option Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Service of a Participating Company or interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to terminate the Participant’s Service as a Director, an Employee or Consultant, as the case may be, at any time.

Right to Piggyback Whenever the Company proposes to register any Equity Securities under the Securities Act (other than a registration (i) pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (or other registration solely relating to an offering or sale to employees or directors of the Company pursuant to any employee share plan or other employee benefit arrangement), (ii) pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-4 (or similar form that relates to a transaction subject to Rule 145 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto), (iii) in connection with any dividend or distribution reinvestment or similar plan or (iv) pursuant to a registration in which the Company is offering to exchange its own securities for other securities), whether for its own account or for the account of one or more stockholders of the Company (other than the Investors) (a “Piggyback Registration”), the Company shall give prompt written notice to each Investor of its intention to effect such a registration (but in no event less than ten (10) days prior to the proposed date of filing of the applicable Registration Statement) and, subject to Sections 1.5(b), 1.5(c) and 2.1, shall include in such Registration Statement and in any offering of Equity Securities to be made pursuant to such Registration Statement that number of Registrable Securities requested to be sold in such offering by such Investor for the account of such Investor, provided that the Company has received a written request for inclusion therein from such Investor no later than five (5) business days after the date on which the Company has given notice of the Piggyback Registration to Investors. The Company may terminate, delay or withdraw a Piggyback Registration prior to the effectiveness of such registration at any time in its sole discretion and, thereupon, (x) in the case of a determination to terminate or withdraw any registration, the Company shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities under this Section 1.5 in connection with such registration and (y) in the case of a determination to delay registration, the Company shall be permitted to delay registering any Registrable Securities under this Section 1.5 for the same period as the delay in registering the other equity securities covered by such registration. If a Piggyback Registration is effected pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 or the then-appropriate form for an offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto (a “Piggyback Shelf Registration Statement”), the Investors shall be notified by the Company of and shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in any offering pursuant to such Piggyback Shelf Registration Statement (a “Piggyback Shelf Take-Down”), subject to the same limitations that are applicable to any other Piggyback Registration as set forth above.

Shareholder Rights With respect to the foreign securities held pursuant to this Section 4, the Custodian will use reasonable commercial efforts to facilitate the exercise of voting and other shareholder rights, subject always to the laws, regulations and practical constraints that may exist in the country where such securities are issued. The Fund acknowledges that local conditions, including lack of regulation, onerous procedural obligations, lack of notice and other factors may have the effect of severely limiting the ability of the Fund to exercise shareholder rights.
Transfer of Shares After Registration Each Purchaser agrees that it will not effect any disposition of the Shares or its right to purchase the Shares that would constitute a sale within the meaning of the Securities Act, except as contemplated in the Registration Statement referred to in Section 7.1 or as otherwise permitted by law, and that it will promptly notify the Company of any changes in the information set forth in the Registration Statement regarding the Purchaser or its plan of distribution.
No Rights as a Stockholder This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company, nor to any other rights whatsoever except the rights herein set forth.
