business and are in good standing as a foreign corporation or other entity in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by them makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified

Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder.

participation, or any similar right to participate in the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents that have not been effectively waived as of the Closing Date.

into any such option, warrant, call, subscription or other right, arrangement or commitment. Except as set forth on Section 3.1(g) of the Disclosure Schedule,
the issuance and sale of the Shares will not obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other securities to any Person (other than the Purchasers) and will not trigger any anti-dilution or price adjustment rights. All of the
outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, have been issued in compliance in all material respects with all applicable federal and state securities laws, and none of such outstanding shares
was issued in violation of any preemptive rights or similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities which violation would have or would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

report for such fiscal year.

Subsidiaries (i) has prepared and filed all foreign, federal and state income and all other tax returns, reports and declarations required to be filed prior to the date hereof by any jurisdiction to which it is subject, which are correct and

payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply, except where the failure to so file or pay or set aside provisions for any such tax, assessment, charge or return would not reasonably

either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Section 3.1(k) of the Disclosure Schedule, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken any steps to seek protection pursuant to any law or statute relating to bankruptcy, insolvency,

person listed in the Annex to Executive Order No. 13224 (2001) issued by the President of the United States (Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism); (ii) is
named on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons maintained by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control; (iii) is a non-U.S. shell bank or is providing banking services indirectly to a non-U.S. shell bank; (iv) is a senior
non-U.S. political figure or an immediate family member or close associate of such figure; or (v) is otherwise prohibited from investing in the Company pursuant to applicable U.S. anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist and asset control laws,
regulations, rules or orders (categories (i) through (v), each a “Prohibited Purchaser”). The Purchaser agrees to provide the
Company, promptly upon request, all information that the Company reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable U.S. anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist and asset control laws, regulations, rules and orders. The Purchaser
consents to the disclosure to U.S. regulators and law enforcement authorities by the Company and its Affiliates and agents of such information about the Purchaser as the Company reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable
U.S. antimony laundering, anti-terrorist and asset control laws, regulations, rules and orders. If the Purchaser is a financial institution that is subject to the USA Patriot Act, the Purchaser represents that it has met all of its obligations
under the USA Patriot Act. The Purchaser acknowledges that if, following its investment in the Company, the Company reasonably believes that the Purchaser is a Prohibited Purchaser, the Company has the right or may be obligated to prohibit
additional investments, segregate the assets constituting the investment in accordance with applicable regulations or immediately require the Purchaser to transfer the Shares. The Purchaser further acknowledges that the Purchaser will have no
claim against the Company or any of its Affiliates or agents for any form of damages as a result of any of the foregoing actions.
The Company and each of the Purchasers acknowledge and agree that no party to this Agreement has made or
makes any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in this Article III and the Transaction Documents and that, except as otherwise provided herein, neither the
Company nor any Purchaser has relied on the accuracy or completeness of any information not contained in the Transaction Documents.
ARTICLE 4
OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
4.1 Transfer Restrictions.
(a) Compliance with Laws. Notwithstanding any
other provision of the Transaction Documents, each Purchaser covenants that the Shares may be disposed of only pursuant to an effective registration statement under, and in compliance with the requirements of, the Securities Act, or pursuant to
20
an available exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in
compliance with any applicable state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of the Shares other than (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement, (ii) to the Company, (iii) pursuant to Rule 144, or (iv) in connection
with a bona fide pledge, the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may include in-house legal counsel to the Purchaser), the form and substance of which
opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Shares under the Securities Act, and, as a condition of such transfer, any such transferee shall agree in
writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights of a Purchaser under this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement.
(b) Lock-Up Period; Certain Dispositions.
Each Purchaser shall not, directly or indirectly, during the 6-month period immediately following the Closing Date (the “Lock-Up Period”),
(A) sell, offer to sell, solicit offers to buy, dispose of, loan, pledge or grant any right with respect to (collectively, a “Disposition”) the Shares or (B) engage in any Short Sales or hedging transactions involving the Company’s securities. In addition, each Purchaser agrees
that for so long as it owns any Common Stock, it will not enter into any Short Sale of Shares executed at a time when such Purchaser has no equivalent offsetting long position in the Common Stock. For purposes of determining whether such Purchaser
has an equivalent offsetting long position in the Common Stock, shares that such Purchaser is entitled to receive within sixty (60) days (whether pursuant to contract or upon conversion or exercise of convertible securities) will be included as if
held long by such Purchaser. Each Purchaser covenants that neither it nor any Person acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will engage in any transactions in the Company’s securities (including, without limitation, any Short
Sales involving the Company’s securities) during the period from the date hereof until the earlier of such time as (i) the expiration of the Lock-Up Period or (ii) this Agreement is terminated in full pursuant to Section 6.16. Each Purchaser understands and acknowledges, severally and not jointly with any other Purchaser, that the Commission currently takes the position that covering a short position
established prior to effectiveness of a resale registration statement with shares included in such registration statement would be a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act, as set forth in Division of Corporation Financing Compliance and
Disclosure Interpretation 239.10 regarding short selling.
(c) Legends. Certificates evidencing the
Shares shall bear any legend as required by the “Blue Sky” laws of any state and restrictive legends in substantially the following form until such time as they are not required under Section 4.1(d) (and a stock transfer order may be placed against transfer of the Shares):
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I)
IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR (B) AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR BLUE SKY LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS TRANSFER AGENT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT.
THE SHARES ARE SUBJECT TO A SIX (6)-MONTH LOCK-UP PERIOD, AS SET FORTH IN A SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT
AMONG THE COMPANY AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SHARES, COPIES OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY.
21
In addition, if the Company reasonably determines that any Purchaser is an Affiliate of the Company, the
certificate evidencing the Shares issued to such Purchaser shall bear a customary “Affiliates” legend.
(d) Removal of Legends. Subject to the
Company’s right to request an opinion of counsel as set forth in Section 4.1(a), the legends set forth in Section 4.1(c) above shall be removable and the Company shall remove such legends or any other legends and issue and cause to be issued to such holder by electronic delivery at the applicable balance
account at The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) evidence of a book entry position, free and clear of all restrictive and other
legends or instructions as provided in this Section 4.1(d), if, at any time following the expiration of the Lock-up Period, (i) such Shares are registered for
resale under the Securities Act and the Purchaser is selling pursuant to the effective registration statement registering the Shares for resale (provided that, the Purchaser agrees to only sell such Shares during such time that such registration
statement is effective and not withdrawn or suspended, and only as permitted by such registration statement), or (ii) such Shares are sold or transferred in compliance with Rule 144 (if the transferor is not an Affiliate of the Company), including
without limitation in compliance with the current public information requirements of Rule 144 if applicable to the Company at the time of such sale or transfer, and the holder and its broker have delivered customary documents reasonably requested
by the Transfer Agent and/or Company Counsel in connection with such sale or transfer. Any fees (with respect to the Transfer Agent, Company Counsel or otherwise) associated with the removal of such legend shall be borne by the Company. Following
the Effective Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), or at such other time as a legend is no longer required for certain Shares, the Company will no later than three (3) Trading Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the
Company or the Transfer Agent (with concurrent notice and delivery of copies to the Company) of a legended certificate representing such Shares (endorsed or with stock powers attached, signatures guaranteed, and otherwise in form necessary to
affect the reissuance and/or transfer, and together with such other customary documents as the Transfer Agent and/or Company Counsel shall reasonably request), deliver or cause to be delivered to the transferee of such Purchaser or such Purchaser,
as applicable, a certificate representing such Shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends. Certificates for Shares subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Purchasers, as applicable, by
crediting the account of the transferee’s or Purchaser’s prime broker with DTC.
(e) Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions.
The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its Transfer Agent, and any subsequent Transfer Agent, in the form of Exhibit E attached hereto
(the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”). The Company represents and warrants that no instruction other than the
Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions or instructions consistent therewith or otherwise contemplated hereby or thereby or by the other Transaction Documents or such other documents as the Transfer Agent may request in connection with any such
instructions will be given by the Company to its Transfer Agent in connection with this Agreement, and that the Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in and subject to
the terms of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and applicable law.
(f) Acknowledgement. Each Purchaser hereunder
acknowledges its primary responsibilities under the Securities Act and accordingly will not sell or otherwise transfer the Shares or any interest therein without complying with the requirements of the Securities Act. While the Registration
Statement remains effective, each Purchaser hereunder may sell the Shares in accordance with the plan of distribution contained in the Registration Statement and, if it does so, it will comply therewith and with the related prospectus delivery
requirements unless an exemption therefrom is available. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, agrees that if it is notified by the Company in
writing at any time that the Registration Statement registering the resale of the Shares is not effective or that the prospectus included in such Registration Statement no longer complies with the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act,
such Purchaser will refrain from selling such Shares until such time as such Purchaser
22
is notified by the Company that such Registration
Statement is effective or such prospectus is compliant with Section 10 of the Securities Act, unless such Purchaser is able to, and does, sell such Shares pursuant
to an available exemption from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act. Each Purchaser acknowledges that the delivery of the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions and any removal of any legends from certificates
representing the Shares as set forth in this Section 4.1 is predicated on the
Company’s reliance upon the Purchaser’s acknowledgement in this Section 4.1(f).
4.2 Acknowledgment of Dilution. The Company acknowledges that the issuance of the Shares may result in dilution of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Company further acknowledges that its obligations under the Transaction Documents, including without limitation its obligation to issue the Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents, are, subject to
the terms and conditions expressly set forth in this Agreement, unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of set off, counterclaim, delay or reduction, regardless of the effect of any such dilution or any claim the Company may
have against any Purchaser and regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership of the other stockholders of the Company.
4.3 Form D and Blue Sky. The Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Shares as required under
Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to each Purchaser who requests a copy in writing promptly after such filing. The Company shall take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to qualify the Shares for
sale to the Purchasers at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such qualification), which, subject to the accuracy of the
Company’s and the Purchaser’s representations and warranties set forth herein, shall consist of the submission of all filings and reports relating to the offer and sale of the Shares pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D required under
applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States following the Closing Date, and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the Purchasers who request in writing such evidence.
4.4 No Integration. The Company shall not, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the
Affiliates of the Company shall not, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares in
a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Shares to the Purchasers, or that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares for purposes of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market
such that it would require shareholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless shareholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.
4.5 Indemnification.
(a) Indemnification of the Purchasers. In
addition to the indemnity provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, subject to this Section 4.8, the Company will indemnify and hold each Purchaser and its
directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees and agents (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title), each Person who controls
such Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, shareholders, agents, members, partners or employees (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role
of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling Person (each, a “Purchaser
Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of
investigation that any such Purchaser Party may suffer or incur, as a result of or relating to: (1) third party claims against such Purchaser relating to any breach of any of the
23
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other Transaction
Documents, and (2) third party claims against a Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, in any capacity, by any Person who is not an Affiliate, limited partner, or other investor of such Purchaser, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated
by the Transaction Documents (unless such action is based upon a breach of such Purchaser’s representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction Documents or any conduct by such Purchaser which constitutes fraud, gross negligence, willful
misconduct or malfeasance). The Company will not be liable to any Purchaser Party under this Agreement to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to (i) the failure of
such Purchaser Party to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Section 4.8 below respecting sale of the Shares, (ii) the inaccuracy of any
representations made by such Purchaser Party herein, or (iii) information regarding such Purchaser Party furnished in such Purchaser Party’s Accredited Investor Questionnaire to the Company by such Purchaser Party.
(b) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any Person (the “Indemnified Person”) of notice of any demand, claim or circumstances which would or might give rise to a claim or the commencement of any action, proceeding or investigation in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to
Section 4.8(a), such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Company in writing and the Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person and the
assumption of the payment of all fees and expenses; provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnified Person to so notify the Company shall not
relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Company is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure to notify. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel,
but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless: (i) the Company and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel; (ii) the Company shall have failed promptly
to assume the defense of such proceeding or the Company does not, upon assuming the defense of such proceeding, conduct the defense of such claim actively and diligently; or (iii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded
parties) include both such Indemnified Person and the Company, and such Indemnified Person shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest exists if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Person and the Company; (iv) the
claim is based upon any proceeding, indictment, allegation or investigation of a criminal nature; or (v) the claim seeks an injunction or non-monetary or equitable relief against the Indemnified Person, other than any such claim that is incidental
to the primary claim or claims and not material (in the case of clauses (ii)-(v), if such Indemnified Party notifies the Company in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Company, the Company shall not have the
right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of the Company). The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, delayed or conditioned. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, the Company shall not effect any settlement of any pending or threatened
proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability
arising out of such Proceeding and such settlement does not require any Indemnified Person to perform any covenant or refrain from engaging in any activity or include any non-monetary limitation on the actions of any Indemnified Person or any of
its Affiliates or any admission of fault, violation, culpability, malfeasance or nonfeasance by, or on behalf of, or liability on behalf of, any such Indemnified Person.
4.6 Listing of Securities. In the
time and manner required by the Principal Trading Market, the Company shall prepare and file with such Trading Market any additional shares listing application that may be required by such Trading Market covering all of the Shares and shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to take all steps necessary to maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing.
24
4.7 Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity.
On or before 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the date hereof, the Company shall issue a press release (the “Press Release”) reasonably acceptable to the Purchasers disclosing all material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby. On or before 5:30 p.m., New York City time, on the fourth Trading Day immediately following

nondisclosure agreement executed by it and, in addition, until such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are required to be publicly disclosed by the Company as described in this Section 4.7, such Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction).

of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.
6.5 Construction. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a
part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict
construction will be applied against any party. This Agreement shall be
27
construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise
favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents.
6.6 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement, or any rights or obligations hereunder, may not be assigned by the Company without the prior written consent of the Purchasers (other than by
merger or consolidation or to an entity which acquires the Company, including by way of acquiring all or substantially all of the Company’s assets). Any Purchaser may assign its rights hereunder in whole or in part to any Person to whom such
Purchaser assigns or transfers any Shares in compliance with the Transaction Documents and applicable law, provided such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred Shares, by the terms and conditions of this
Agreement that apply to the Purchasers.
6.7 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person.
6.8 Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement
and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all
Proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, employees or
agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the Boston Courts. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Boston Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any
transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally
subject to the jurisdiction of any such Boston Court, or that such Proceeding has been commenced in an improper or inconvenient forum. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served
in any such Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall
constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
6.9 Survival. The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the
Closing and the delivery of the Shares for a period of one (1) year from the Closing Date. Covenants to be performed after the Closing shall survive until performed or observed in accordance with their terms.
6.10 Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of
which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same
counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format
data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.
28
6.11 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or
unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid and enforceable
provision that is a reasonable substitute therefor and achieves that same or substantially the same effect or result, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement.
6.12 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein
or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any
loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agree to waive in any action for specific performance of any such obligation (other than in connection with any action for a temporary
restraining order) the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
6.13 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to
any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or a Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without
limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full
force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

subdivision, dividend or distribution payable in shares of Common Stock (or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly shares of Common Stock), reverse stock split, combination

6.15 Waiver of Conflicts. Each Purchaser acknowledges that: (a) it has read this
Agreement; (b) it has been represented in the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement by legal counsel of its own choice or has voluntarily declined to seek such counsel; and (c) it understands the terms and consequences of

the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such time. Nothing in this Section 6.16 shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any
breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under this Agreement or the other
Transaction Documents. Upon a termination in accordance with this Section 6.16, the Company and the Purchaser shall not have any further obligation or
liability (including arising from such termination) to the other. The Company and Purchasers may extend the term of this Agreement in accordance with the amendment provisions of Section 6.4 herein.

This Investor Questionnaire (“Questionnaire”) must be completed by each potential investor in connection with the offer and sale of the shares of the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, (the “Securities”), of Corindus Vascular Robotics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”).

Attn: Xx. Xxxxxxx Xxxxx
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is made to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of March ___, 2019 (the “Agreement”), by and among Corindus Vascular Robotics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the purchasers named therein (collectively, and including permitted transferees, the “Holders”), pursuant to which the Company is issuing to the Holders shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”).
By this letter, you are irrevocably authorized and directed to issue an aggregate of [●] shares of the
Company’s Common Stock (the “Shares”). The Shares should be issued in the names and denominations specified on Schedule I hereto, in either book entry or stock certificate form, as indicated on Schedule
I. The Shares have not been registered and are, therefore, “restricted shares.” Accordingly, the Shares should bear the following restricted legend:
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT OR (B) AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR BLUE SKY LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL
REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS TRANSFER AGENT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT.
The Shares are also subject to certain restrictions on transfer in accordance with the Agreement during
the six (6)-month period following the closing of the sale of the Shares (the “Lock-Up Period”). Accordingly, the Shares should
bear the following restricted legend:
THE SHARES ARE SUBJECT TO A SIX (6)-MONTH LOCK-UP PERIOD, AS SET FORTH IN A
SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT AMONG THE COMPANY AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SHARES, COPIES OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY.
The Shares may be issued to any Holder in certificate form (each, a “Certificate” and collectively, the “Certificates”)
upon request. Any Certificate issued should contain the aforementioned legend.
E-1
This letter shall also serve as our irrevocable authorization and direction to you (provided that you
are the transfer agent of the Company at such time and the conditions set forth in this letter are satisfied), subject to any stop transfer instructions that we may issue to you from time to time, if any, to issue shares of Common Stock upon
transfer or resale of the Shares.
You acknowledge and agree that so long as (i) you have received written confirmation from the Company’s
legal counsel that a registration statement covering resales of the Shares has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and a copy of
such registration statement, and (ii) the Lock-Up Period has expired, then, unless otherwise required by law, you shall use your commercially reasonable efforts to issue the certificates representing the Shares registered in the names of such
Holders or transferees, as the case may be, within three (3) Business Days of your receipt of a notice of transfer of Shares, and such certificates shall not bear any legend restricting transfer of the Shares thereby and should not be subject to
any stop-transfer restriction.
A form of written confirmation from the Company’s outside legal counsel that a registration statement
covering resales of the Shares has been declared effective by the Commission under the Securities Act (which confirmation shall be delivered to you upon effectiveness of the registration statement) is attached hereto as Annex A.
Please be advised that the Holders are relying upon this letter as an inducement to enter into the
Agreement and, accordingly, each Holder is a third party beneficiary to these instructions.
Please execute this letter in the space indicated to acknowledge your agreement to act in accordance with
these instructions.

Re: Corindus Vascular Robotics, Inc.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Corindus Vascular Robotics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated as of [●], 2019, with the buyers named therein (collectively, the “Purchasers”)
pursuant to which the Company issued to the Purchasers shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common
Stock”). Pursuant to that certain Registration Rights Agreement of even date, the Company agreed to register the resale of the Common Stocks (the “Registrable Securities”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In
connection with the Company’s obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, on [___], 2019, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333- )
(the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) relating to the Registrable Securities which names each of the Purchasers as a selling stockholder thereunder and set forth as Exhibit A hereto.
In connection with the foregoing, we advise you that a member of the Commission’s staff has advised us
by telephone that the Commission has entered an order declaring the Registration Statement effective under the Securities Act at ____ [a.m.][p.m.] on [___], 2019, and we have no knowledge, after telephonic inquiry of a member of the staff, that any
stop order suspending its effectiveness has been issued or that any proceedings for that purpose are pending before, or threatened by, the Commission and the Registrable Securities are available for resale under the Securities Act pursuant to the
Registration Statement. Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that as of the date of this opinion, the Registrable Securities have been duly authorized and, when issued by you, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and
are registered for resale under the Securities Act under the effective Registration Statement and, following the expiration of the Lock-Up Period (as defined in the Agreement), may be issued without a restrictive legend.
This letter shall serve as our standing notice to you that, following the expiration of the Lock-Up
Period, the Common Stock may be freely transferred by the Purchasers pursuant to the Registration Statement. You need not require further letters from us to effect any future legend-free issuance or reissuance of shares of Common Stock upon the
expiration of the Lock-Up Period to the Purchasers or the transferees of the Purchasers, as the case may be, as contemplated by the Company’s Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions dated [●], 2019, provided at the time of such reissuance, the
Company has not otherwise notified you that the Registration Statement is unavailable for the resale of the Registrable Securities. This letter shall serve as our standing instructions with regard to this matter.
