a Registration Statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act (or Form S-1, if the Company is not eligible to use Form S-3) covering the resale of Registrable Securities consisting of all of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock owned by the
Holders and such number of shares of Class A Common Stock that may be issued upon conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock equal to 19.9% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock as of the date of the Certificate of Designation
held by the Holders as of the date of the filing of such Annual Report on Form 10-K for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to SEC Rule 415. If the Company has breached such requirement pursuant to this Section 2.1, in addition to the Regular Dividends (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) that accumulate on the Convertible Preferred
Stock as set forth in the Certificate of Designations, (i) if such breach has been cured within 30 days, each Holder shall be entitled to an additional 2% per annum for one full Regular Dividend Period (as defined in the Certificate of
Designation) payable on the next Regular Dividend Payment Date (as defined in the Certificate of Designation); and (ii) for each additional 30 day period in which the Company has failed to
cure such breach, each Holder shall be entitled to an additional 2% per annum for an additional full Regular Dividend Period, until a Registration Statement has been filed in accordance with this Section
2.1.
2.2 Demand
Registration.
(a) Form
S-1 and S-3 Demand.
(i) If at any time after the Closing
but prior to the filing of the Registration Statement by the Company pursuant to Section 2.1, the Company receives a request from the Initiating Holder that the Company file a
Registration Statement on Form S-1 with respect to the resale of Registrable Securities having an anticipated aggregate offering price in excess of $20 million (but in any event limited to all shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and
such number of shares of Class A Common Stock that may be issued upon conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock equal to 19.9% of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock as of the date of the Certificate of Designation), then the
Company shall (1) within 10 days after the date such request is given, give notice thereof (the “Demand Notice”) to all Holders other than the Initiating Holder; and (2) as
soon as practicable, and in any event within 60 days after the date such request is given by the Initiating Holder, file a Registration Statement on Form S-1 under the Securities Act covering the resale of such Registrable Securities that the
Initiating Holder requested to be registered and any additional Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by any other Holders (but subject to the limits set forth herein) for an offering to be made on a continuous
basis pursuant to SEC Rule 415, as specified by notice given by each such Holder to the Company within 10 days of the date the Demand Notice is given, and in each case, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.2.
(ii) If at any time after the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed by the Company pursuant to Section 2.1 and the receipt by the Company of the Requisite Stockholder Approval (as defined in the
Certificate of Designations), the Company receives a request from the Initiating Holder that the Company file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act (or Form S-1, if the Company is not eligible to use Form S-3) with respect
to the resale of Registrable Securities not included in the Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2.1 having an anticipated aggregate offering price in excess of $20 million (but in any event limited to all shares of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock and such number of shares of Class A Common Stock that may be issued upon conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock equal to the product of (a) the average of the Last Reported Sale Price (as defined in the
Certificate of Designation) for the Class A Common Stock for the 90 Trading Days (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) immediately preceding the delivery of the Demand Notice required by this section) by (b) 0.70), then the Company shall
(1) within 10 days after the date such request is given, give a Demand Notice to all Holders other than the Initiating Holder; and (2) as soon as practicable, and in any event within 60 days after the date such request is given by the Initiating
Holder, file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act (or Form S-1, if the Company is not eligible to use Form S-3) covering the resale of such Registrable Securities that the Initiating Holder requested to be registered and
any additional Registrable
Securities requested to be included in such registration by any other Holders (but subject to the limits set forth herein) for
an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to SEC Rule 415, as specified by notice given by each such Holder to the Company within 10 days of the date the Demand Notice is given, and in each case, subject to the limitations set forth
in Section 2.2.
(b) Form S-3 Demand. If at any time when it is eligible to use Form S-3, the
Company receives a request from the Initiating Holder that the Company file a Registration Statement, including a shelf registration statement (and if at such time the Company is a WKSI, an automatic shelf registration statement) on Form S-3 with
respect to outstanding Registrable Securities of the Initiating Holder, then the Company shall (1) within 10 days after the date such request is given, give a Demand Notice to all Holders except the Initiating Holder; and (2) as soon as
practicable, and in any event within 30 days after the date such request is given by the Initiating Holder, file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act covering all Registrable Securities requested to be included in such
registration by any other Holders, as specified by notice given by each such Holder to the Company within 10 days of the date the Demand Notice is given, and in each case, subject to the limitations of Section
2.2 and Section 2.4.
(c) At any time, and from time-to-time, during the
period during which a shelf registration statement is effective (except during a Demand Suspension, as defined below), the Initiating Holder may notify the Company in writing (the “Takedown
Request”), of the intent to sell Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement (in whole or in part) in an offering (a “Shelf Offering”). Such
Takedown Request shall specify the aggregate number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered in such Shelf Offering. Within 10 days after receipt by the Company of such Takedown Request, the Company shall deliver a written notice (a
“Takedown Notice”) to each other Holder informing each such other Holder of its right to include Registrable Securities in such Shelf Offering. As soon as reasonably
practicable and in any event no later than 5 Business Days after receipt of a Takedown Notice (and no later than 2 Business Days after the receipt of such Demand Notice in the case of a “bought deal,” a “registered direct offering” or an
“overnight transaction” where no preliminary prospectus is used), each such other Holder shall have the right to request in writing that the Company include all or a specific portion of the Registrable Securities held by such other Holder in such
Shelf Offering and the Company shall include such Registrable Securities in such Shelf Offering.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, (i) if the SEC or any SEC guidance sets forth a limitation on the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such
Registration Statement will be reduced to the extent applicable (which reduction shall be pro rata among all such selling shareholders whose securities are included in such Registration Statement); and (ii) in no event shall the Company be
permitted to name any Holder or such Holder’s Affiliate as an underwriter without the prior written consent of such Holder.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing obligations, if the
Company furnishes to Holders requesting a Registration Statement or Takedown Request pursuant to this Section 2.2 a certificate signed by the Company’s chief executive officer stating
that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its stockholders
for such Registration Statement, including any shelf registration statement, to either become effective or remain effective for as long as such
Registration Statement otherwise would be required to remain effective, or for the prospectus supplement, related to the Registration Statement to be filed pursuant to the Takedown Request, to be filed because such action would: (i) materially
interfere with a significant acquisition, corporate reorganization, or other similar transaction involving the Company; (ii) require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure; (iii) render the Company unable to comply with requirements under the
Securities Act or Exchange Act; or (iv) in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, otherwise be materially detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such Registration Statement or prospectus supplement to be filed (a “Demand Suspension”), then the Company shall have the right to defer taking action with respect to such filing or notify the Holders to suspend the use of the Registration
Statement that has already been declared effective, as applicable, and any time periods with respect to filing or effectiveness thereof shall be tolled correspondingly, for a period of not more than 60 days (or 30 days in the case of clause (iv)
after the request of the Initiating Holder is given) during any calendar year; provided, however, that the Company may not
invoke this right more than twice in any 12-month period, and at least 30 days must elapse between each Demand Suspension. If a Demand Suspension is made because the Registration Statement or Takedown Request would require the Company to make an
Adverse Disclosure, such Demand Suspension shall terminate at such time as the public disclosure of such information is made. The Company shall immediately notify the Holders upon the termination of any Demand Suspension, without any further
request from a Holder.
(f) The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to
take any action to effect, any registration pursuant to Section 2.2: (i) during the period that is 60 days before the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending
on a date that is 90 days after the effective date of, a Company-initiated registration; provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith commercially reasonable efforts to
cause such Registration Statement to become effective and may only exercise this right once in any 12-month period; or (ii) after the Company has effected up to one registration requested by the Initiating Holder pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(i), up to one registration requested by the Initiating Holder pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(ii) and up to three
registrations requested by the Initiating Holder pursuant to Section 2.2(b). A registration shall not be counted as “effected” for purposes of Section 2.2 until such time as the applicable Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC and, in the case of a registration pursuant to Section 2.2(a),
remains effective for not less than 180 days (or such shorter period as shall terminate when all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold or withdrawn) (the “Demand Period”). No registration pursuant to Section 2.2 shall be deemed to have been effected if during the Demand Period such registration is interfered
with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or other governmental agency or court.
(g) Any Holders that have requested its Registrable
Securities be included in any registration pursuant to Section 2.2 may withdraw all or any portion of its Registrable Securities from such registration at any time prior to the
effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement. The Company shall continue all efforts to secure effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement in respect of the Registrable Securities of any other Holder that has requested
inclusion in the demand registration pursuant to Section 2.2 so long as the Initiating
Holder has requested and not withdrawn all of his Registrable Securities to be included in such registration; provided, however, if the Initiating Holder has requested for all of his Registrable Securities to be withdrawn from such registration, the Company shall immediately cease all efforts to secure effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement, even if one or more other Holders have requested for Registrable Securities to be included in such applicable Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.2, and such withdrawn registration shall not count towards the limitation on registrations set forth in Section 2.2(e) so long as the applicable Registration Statement has not been filed or submitted to the SEC.
(h) In the event any Holder requests to participate in
a registration pursuant to this Section 2.2 in connection with a distribution of Registrable Securities to its partners or members, the registration shall provide for resale by such
partners or members, if requested by the Holder.
(i) For purposes of this Section 2.2, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to qualify for registration on Form S-3 for secondary sales and, during such time as the Company is so qualified, shall effect any registration
of secondary sales on Form S-3 after such qualification.
(j) For avoidance of doubt, nothing in the Agreement
provides any Holder with the right to demand a Registration Statement (or inclusion in any Registration Statement) involving an Underwritten Offering.
2.3 Company
Offering.
(a) If the Company proposes to offer (including, for
this purpose, a registration effected by the Company for its stockholders other than the Holders) any of its securities under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such securities (including an “at-the market offering,” a
“bought deal” or a “registered direct offering”) solely for cash (other than in an Excluded Registration), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder notice of such offering (a “Company Offering”). Such notice shall specify, as applicable, the amount of Class A Common Stock to be registered, the proposed filing date of the registration statement or applicable prospectus supplement and the
proposed minimum offering price of the Class A Common Stock, in each case, to the extent then known. In the case of an offering under a shelf registration statement previously filed or to be filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 415 under the
Securities Act, including where the Company qualifies as a WKSI, such notice shall be sent as promptly as reasonably practicable and in any event no later than 10 days prior to the expected date of filing of such registration statement or
commencement of marketing efforts for such offering (and no later than 5 days prior in the case of a “bought deal,” a “registered direct
offering” or an “overnight transaction” where no preliminary prospectus is used). In the case of a Company Offering under a registration statement to be
filed that is not a shelf registration statement, such notice shall be given as promptly as reasonably practicable and, in any event, no later than 10 days prior to the expected date of filing of such registration statement. Upon the written
request of each Holder given within 5 Business Days after such notice is given by the Company (except that each Holder shall have 2 Business Days after the Company gives such notice to request inclusion of Registrable Securities in the Company
Offering in the case of a “bought deal,” a “registered direct offering” or an “overnight transaction” where no preliminary prospectus is used), the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section
2.4, as promptly as reasonably practicable cause to be registered or include in the prospectus supplement, as applicable, all of the Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be included in such registration.
The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any offering initiated by it under this Section 2.3 before the effective date of such offering, whether or not any Holder has
elected to include Registrable Securities in such offering. The expenses of such withdrawn offering shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 2.6.
(b) No offering of Registrable Securities effected
pursuant to a request under this Section 2.3 shall be deemed to have been effected pursuant to Section 2.2 or shall relieve
the Company of its obligations under Section 2.2.
(c) Each Holder shall be permitted to withdraw all or
part of its Registrable Securities in an offering under this Section 2.3 by giving written notice to the Company of its request to withdraw; provided that (i) such request must be made in writing prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or, in the case of a public offering, at least 5 Business Days prior to the earlier of the anticipated
filing of the “red xxxxxxx” Prospectus, if applicable, and the anticipated pricing or trade date; and (ii) such withdrawal shall be irrevocable and, after making such withdrawal, the Holder shall no longer have any right to include Registrable
Securities in such offering as to which such withdrawal was made.
2.4 Obligations
of the Company. Whenever required under this Section 2 to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably
possible:
(a) prepare and file a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective, and, to keep such Registration Statement effective for a period of up to 180 days or, if earlier, until the distribution contemplated in the Registration Statement has
been completed, provided, however, that in the case of an automatic Registration Statement on Form S-3, where the Company
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Registration Statement effective for three years from the date of effectiveness, which period may be extended, at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities
registered thereunder, until the earlier of (A) the effective date of the new Registration Statement; or (B) 180 days after the third anniversary of the initial effective date of the prior automatic Registration Statement on Form S-3; in each case,
subject to compliance with applicable SEC rules;
(b) (i) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements to
such Registration Statement, and the Prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement, as may be necessary to comply with the Securities Act in order to enable the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement
through the applicable periods during which the Company is obligated to maintain the effectiveness of such Registration Statement; (ii) cause the related Prospectus to be amended or supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as so
supplemented or amended to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act; and (iii) respond to
any comments received from the SEC with respect to each Registration Statement or any amendment thereto;
(c) that, to the extent practicable, at least 5 Business Days prior to filing any registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or
supplements thereto, the Company shall furnish to the holders of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement and their counsel, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed;
(d) furnish to the selling Holders such numbers of
copies (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may be electronic copies) of the signed Registration Statement, any post-effective amendment thereto, a Prospectus, including a preliminary Prospectus, as required by the Securities Act, any amendments
or supplements thereto, any Free Writing Prospectus, and such other documents as the Holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate their disposition of their Registrable Securities;
(e) use commercially reasonable efforts to register and
qualify the securities covered by such Registration Statement under such other securities or blue-sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the selling Holders; provided
that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be
required by the Securities Act;
(f) cooperate with each Holder participating in the
disposition of such Registrable Securities and their respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with FINRA;
(g) if the Company is eligible under the relevant
provisions of Rule 430B under the Securities Act, if the Company files any shelf Registration Statement, include in such shelf Registration Statement such disclosures as may be required by Rule 430B under the Securities Act (referring to the
unnamed selling security holders in a generic manner by identifying the initial offering of the securities to the Holders) in order to ensure that the Holders may be added to such shelf Registration Statement at a later time through the filing of
a Prospectus supplement rather than a post-effective amendment;
(h) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all
such Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement to be listed on a national securities exchange or trading system and each securities exchange and trading system (if any) on which similar securities issued by the Company are
then listed;
(i) (1) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all
Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Agreement and provide a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration; and (2) cooperate with any selling Holders to
facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of book-entry interests representing Registrable Securities to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to a Registration Statement, which book-entry interests shall be free of all restrictive legends
indicating that the Registrable Securities are unregistered or unqualified for resale under the Securities Act, Exchange
(j) notify each selling Holder, promptly after the
Company receives notice thereof, of the time when such Registration Statement has been declared effective or a supplement to any Prospectus forming a part of such Registration Statement has been filed;
(k) after such Registration Statement becomes effective,
promptly notify each selling Holder of any (i) request by the SEC that the Company amend or supplement such Registration Statement or Prospectus; or (ii) stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement, issued
or threatened in writing by the SEC in connection therewith, and use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it or obtain withdrawal of it as soon as practicable if entered; and
(l) promptly notify each seller of Registrable
Securities covered by such registration, upon discovery by an executive officer of the Company that the prospectus included in such registration, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and promptly thereafter prepare and file with the SEC and furnish to such seller a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of
such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers or prospective purchasers of such securities, such prospectus shall not include 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 light of the circumstances under which they are made.
2.5 Furnish
Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Section 2 with respect to the Registrable Securities
of any selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as is reasonably required to effect the
registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities. All penalties set forth in Section 2 shall be tolled to the extent that the Company is unable to file a Registration Statement
because a selling Holder has not responded to such request in a commercially timely manner.
2.6 Expenses
of Registration. All expenses incurred in connection with registrations pursuant to Section 2 shall be borne and paid by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2.2 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Initiating Holder (in which case all selling Holders shall bear such expenses pro rata based upon the
number of Registrable Securities that were to be included in the withdrawn registration); provided further, that if, at the
time of such withdrawal, the Holders shall have learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of the Company from that known to the Holders at the time of their request and have withdrawn the request with
reasonable promptness after learning of such information then the Holders shall not be required to pay any of such expenses and shall not forfeit their right to one registration pursuant to Section
2.2(a).
2.7 Delay
of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any registration pursuant to this Agreement as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the
interpretation or implementation of this Section 2.
2.8 Indemnification.
If any Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement under this Section 2:
(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will
indemnify, defend, and hold harmless each selling Holder, and the partners, members, officers, directors, and stockholders of each such Holder; one legal counsel and one accountant for the Initiating Holder, and each Person, if any, who controls
such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any Damages, and the Company will pay to each such Holder, controlling Person, or other aforementioned Person any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred
thereby in connection with investigating or defending any claim or proceeding from which Damages may result, as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.8(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim or proceeding if such
settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), nor shall the Company be liable for any Damages to the extent that they arise out of or are based upon actions
or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of any such Holder, controlling Person, or other aforementioned Person expressly for use in connection with such registration.
(b) To the extent permitted by law, each selling
Holder, severally and not jointly, will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Company, and each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the Registration Statement, each Person (if any) who controls the Company within the meaning
of the Securities Act, and legal counsel and accountants for the Company, any other Holder selling securities in such Registration Statement, and any controlling Person of any such Holder, against any Damages, in each case only to the extent that
such Damages arise out of or are based upon actions or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of such selling Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each
such selling Holder will pay to the Company and each other aforementioned Person any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred thereby in connection with investigating or defending any claim or proceeding from which Damages may result, as such
expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.8(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim or proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned, or delayed); and provided, further, that in no event shall the aggregate amounts payable by such Holder by way
of indemnity or contribution under Section 2.8(b) and Section 2.8(d) exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such
Holder, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such Holder.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party
under this Section 2.8 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action) for which a party may be entitled to indemnification hereunder, such indemnified
party will, if a claim in respect
thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 2.8, give the
indemnifying party notice of the commencement thereof. The indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in such action and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, participate jointly with any other indemnifying party to which
notice has been given, and to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however,
that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties that may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party,
if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in
such action. The failure to give notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 2.8, to the extent that such failure actually and materially prejudices the indemnifying party’s ability to defend such action. The failure to give notice to the indemnifying party
will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 2.8.
(d) To provide for just and equitable contribution to
joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either: (i) any party otherwise entitled to indemnification hereunder makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 2.8
but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such
case, notwithstanding the fact that this Section 2.8 provides for indemnification in such case; or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any party
hereto for which indemnification is provided under this Section 2.8, then, and in each such case, such parties will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or
expenses to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of each of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the statements, omissions, or
other actions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability, or expense, as well as to reflect any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact, or the omission or alleged omission of a material fact, relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party
and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, however, that, in any such case (x) no Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by such Holder pursuant to such
Registration Statement; and (y) no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation;
and provided, further, that in no event shall any Holder’s liability pursuant to this Section 2.8(d), when combined with the amounts paid or payable by such Holder pursuant to Section 2.8(b), exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such
Holder, except in the case of willful misconduct or fraud by such Holder.
(e) The obligations of the Company and Holders under
this Section 2.8 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration under this Section 2,
and otherwise shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
2.9 Reports
Under Exchange Act. With a view to making available to the Holder the benefits of SEC Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public
without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the Company shall:
(a) make and keep available adequate current public
information, as those terms are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144;
(b) use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the
SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after the Company has become subject to such reporting requirements); and
(c) furnish to the Holder, so long as the Holder owns
any Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request (i) to the extent accurate, a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144, the Securities Act, and the Exchange Act, or that it qualifies
as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form S-3 (at any time after the Company so qualifies); and (ii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing the Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC that
permits the selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant to Form S-3 (at any time after the Company so qualifies to use such form).
2.10 Limitations
on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding, enter into any
agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company that would allow such holder or prospective holder to include such securities in any registration unless, under the terms of such agreement, such holder or
prospective holder may include such securities in any such registration only to the extent that the inclusion of such securities will not reduce the number of the Registrable Securities of the Holders that are included.
2.11 Termination
of Registration Rights. The right of any Holder to request registration or inclusion of Registrable Securities in any registration shall terminate at such time as SEC Rule 144(b)(1) under the Securities Act (or any successor
provision) is available for the sale of all of such Holder’s shares without any need to comply with the public information requirements of SEC Rule 144(b)(1) (or any successor provision) or any such shares are sold pursuant to SEC Rule 144.
3. Miscellaneous.
3.1 Successors
and Assigns. The rights under this Agreement may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder to a transferee of Registrable Securities that (a) is an Affiliate of such Holder; (b) is a Holder’s Immediate
Family Member or trust for the benefit
3.2 Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in 2 or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including
pdf or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, e.g., xxx.xxxxxxxx.xxx) or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and
effective for all purposes.
3.3 Titles
and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.

sent by electronic mail or facsimile during the recipient’s normal business hours, and if not sent during normal business hours, then on the recipient’s next Business Day; (c) 5 days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return
receipt requested, postage prepaid; or (d) 1 Business Day after the Business Day of deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, freight prepaid, specifying next-day delivery, with written verification of receipt. All communications
shall be sent to the respective parties at their addresses as set forth on Schedule A hereto, or to the principal office of the Company and to the attention of the Chief Executive
Officer, in the case of the Company, or to such email address, facsimile number, or address as subsequently modified by written notice given in accordance with this Section 3.4.
3.5 Amendments
and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance, and either retroactively or prospectively) only with the written
consent of the Company and the Initiating Holder; provided that any provision hereof may be waived by any waiving party on such party’s own behalf, without the consent of any other
party. The Company shall give prompt notice of any amendment or termination hereof or waiver hereunder to any party hereto
3.6 Severability.
In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement is for any reason held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this
Agreement, and such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision shall be reformed and construed so that it will be valid, legal, and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
3.7 Entire
Agreement. This Agreement (including any Schedules and Exhibits hereto) constitutes the full and entire understanding and agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and any other written or oral
agreement relating to the subject matter hereof existing between the parties is expressly canceled.
3.8 Governing
Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflicts of law principles of such State that may lead to the application of
the laws of any other jurisdiction. The parties (a) hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware sitting in New Castle County and to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court
sitting in Wilmington, Delaware for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement; (b) agree not to commence any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement except
in the courts of the State of Delaware sitting in New Castle County or the United States District Court sitting in Wilmington, Delaware; and (c) hereby waive, and agree not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise, in any such
suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an
inconvenient forum, that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by such court.
3.9 WAIVER
OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS, THE SECURITIES OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF OR
THEREOF. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE),
BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. THIS SECTION HAS BEEN FULLY DISCUSSED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THESE PROVISIONS WILL NOT BE SUBJECT TO
3.10 Delays
or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to any party under this Agreement, upon any breach or default of any other party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power, or
remedy of such nonbreaching or nondefaulting party, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of or acquiescence to any such breach or default, or to any similar breach or default thereafter occurring, nor shall any waiver of any single breach or
default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. All remedies, whether under this Agreement or by law or otherwise afforded to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative.
3.11 Other
Interpretive Matters. For purposes of this Agreement, (a) when calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the
reference date in calculating such period is excluded, and if the last day of such period is a non-Business Day, the period in question ends on the next succeeding Business Day; (b) unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this
Agreement to any “Article,” “Section” or “Exhibit” are to the corresponding Article, Section or Exhibit of this Agreement; (c) the word “including,” or any variation thereof, means “including, without limitation” and does not limit any general
statement that it follows to the specific or similar items or matters immediately following it; and (d) all references to dollar amounts are expressed in United States Dollars. As used herein, the singular shall include the plural, the plural
shall include the singular and any use of the male or female gender shall include the other gender, all wherever the same shall be applicable and when the context shall admit or require.
3.12 No
Recourse. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary that may be expressed or implied in this Agreement, and notwithstanding the fact that any Holder or its Affiliates or any of its or their successors or permitted assignees may be
a partnership or a limited liability company, the Company, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, covenants, agrees and acknowledges that no Person other than the Holders and their respective successors and permitted assignees shall have any
obligation hereunder, and that it has no rights of recovery against, and no recourse hereunder against, any former, current or future director, officer, agent, advisor, attorney, representative, Affiliate, manager or employee of any Holder (or
any of its successors or assignees), against any former, current or future general or limited partner, manager, member or stockholder of any Holder or any Affiliate thereof or against any former, current or future director, officer, agent,
advisor, attorney, representative, employee, Affiliate, assignee, general or limited partner, stockholder, manager or member of any of the foregoing, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate veil, by the enforcement of any
judgment or assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, or by virtue of any statute, regulation or other applicable law.
3.13 Specific
Performance. The rights of each party to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby are agreed to be unique, and recognizing that the remedy at law for any breach or threatened breach by a party hereto of the agreements and
conditions set forth herein would be inadequate, and further recognizing that any such breach or threatened breach
would cause immediate, irreparable and permanent damage to the parties, the extent of which would be impossible or difficult to ascertain, the parties
hereto agree that in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, and in addition to any and all remedies at law or otherwise provided herein, any party hereto may specifically enforce the terms of this Agreement and may obtain temporary
and/or permanent injunctive relief (including a mandatory injunction) without the necessity of proving actual damage or the lack of an adequate remedy at law and, to the extent permissible under applicable rules, provision and statutes, a
temporary injunction may be granted immediately upon the commencement of any suit hereunder regardless of whether the breaching party or parties have actually received notice thereof. Such remedy shall be cumulative and not exclusive, and shall
be in addition to any other remedy or remedies available to the parties.
