AGREEMENT

In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF NOTES AND WARRANT.

1.1 Issuance of Notes. On the terms of and subject to the conditions specified in this Agreement, the Company hereby agrees to issue and sell to the Purchasers, severally and not jointly, and each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company, the Notes on the terms and conditions included herein in such principal amounts at each Closing (as defined below) as set forth on the Schedule of Purchasers attached as Exhibit A hereto. The Company’s obligations to the Purchasers shall be evidenced by the Notes delivered to the Purchasers on the date of the applicable Closing.

1.2 Interest Rate. Interest shall accrue solely to the extent as set forth in the Notes.

1.3 Term. All outstanding principal and interest due under any Note shall be due and payable as set forth therein. Payment of all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of any Note and all interest thereon shall be pari passu in right of payment and in all other respects to the other Notes. If the Company pays all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of any Note or any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, such payment shall be made at the same time as and pro rata with payment on each other Note.

1.4 No Usury. This Agreement and each Note issued pursuant to the terms of this Agreement are hereby expressly limited so that in no event whatsoever, whether by reason of deferment or advancement of loan proceeds, acceleration of maturity of the loan evidenced hereby, or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Purchasers hereunder for the loan, use, forbearance or detention of money exceed the maximum interest rate permitted by the laws of the State of California. If

at any time the performance of any provision hereof or any Note involves a payment exceeding the limit of the price that may be validly charged for the loan, use, forbearance or detention of money under applicable law, then automatically and retroactively, ipso facto, the obligation to be performed shall be reduced to such limit, it being the specific intent of the Company and the Purchasers hereof that all payments under this Agreement or any Note are to be credited first to interest as permitted by law, but not in excess of (i) the agreed rate of interest set forth in the Note, or (ii) that permitted by law, whichever is the lesser, and the balance toward the reduction of principal. The provisions of this Section 1.4 shall never be superseded or waived and shall control every other provision of this Agreement and any Note.

1.5 Warrant Issuance. On the terms of and subject to the conditions specified in this Agreement, the Company further agrees to issue and sell to the Purchasers, severally and not jointly, and each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company, the Warrants on the terms and conditions included herein at each Closing for the aggregate purchase price set forth on the Schedule of Purchasers attached as Exhibit A hereto. The number of shares of stock that the Investor shall be entitled to purchase upon exercise of the Warrant shall be determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Warrant.

1.6 Warrant Purchase Price. In consideration for the issuance of the Warrants, at each Closing, the Purchasers shall pay to the Company by check or wire transfer an amount for each Warrant equal to 0.01% of the principal amount of each Note it is issued.

(a) Neither the Purchasers nor any affiliated company has rendered any services to the Company in connection with this Agreement;

3. CONVERSION.

3.1 Qualified Financing. If, after the date hereof and prior to conversion pursuant to Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4 or 3.5, a Qualified Financing occurs, the entire unpaid principal amount and unpaid accrued interest (if any) of each Note shall be automatically converted into that number of shares of the series of the Company’s preferred stock issued in the Qualified Financing (the “New Preferred Stock”) equal to the quotient of (i) the outstanding principal amount plus unpaid accrued interest (if any) divided by (ii) the price per share paid by the investors purchasing New Preferred Stock in the Qualified Financing. For purposes of the Loan Documents, “Qualified Financing” shall mean the issuance and sale by the Company of New Preferred Stock in consideration of which the Company receives aggregate gross proceeds of not less than forty million dollars ($40,000,000) (including conversion of the Notes) and “New Investor” shall mean a venture capital, institutional or corporate investor that is not, immediately prior to the closing of the Qualified Financing, (i) a holder of the preferred stock of the Company and (ii) that invests at least five million dollars ($5,000,000) in the Qualified Financing. For purposes of clarity, the issuance of forty million dollars ($40,000,000) in Notes (including the April 2011 Bridge Notes, as defined below) shall not (or the conversion of any such notes into equity shall not) constitute a Qualified Financing. Shares of New Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes shall be issued on the same terms and conditions as the shares sold to the investors in the Qualified Financing.

3.2 Conversion Upon Change of Control. If , after the date hereof and prior to conversion pursuant to Sections 3.1, 3.3, 3.4 or 3.5, a Change of Control occurs, immediately prior to the effective date of such Change of Control, the entire unpaid principal amount and unpaid accrued interest (if any) of each Note shall be automatically converted into that number of shares of a new series of preferred stock (the “Series X Preferred”) equal to the quotient of (i) the outstanding principal amount plus accrued interest (if any) divided by (ii) the Series C-2 Original Issue Price (as defined in the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Restated Certificate”)). Prior to the effective date of such Change of Control, the Company shall amend its Restated Certificate to authorize the Series X Preferred. The Series X Preferred Stock shall have rights, preferences and privileges identical to the Company’s existing Series C-1 Preferred Stock and Series C-2 Preferred Stock (together, the “Preferred Stock”) and shall be pari passu with such Preferred Stock, provided, however, that upon a Liquidation Event (as defined in the Restated Certificate), before any distribution or payment is made to the holders of Preferred Stock or the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”), the Series X Preferred shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company legally available for distribution an amount per share of Series X Preferred Stock equal to three times the Series C-2 Original Issue Price. For purposes of the Loan Documents, “Change of Control” shall mean (i) a merger with or into or consolidation with any other corporation, limited liability company or other entity (other than a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) or any other transaction or series of related transactions in which in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the Company’s voting power is transferred; or (ii) a sale, lease, exclusive license or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets or intellectual property of the Company in a single transaction or series of related transactions; provided, however, that a Change of Control of the Company shall not include any transaction or series of transactions principally for bona fide equity financing purposes in which cash is received by the Company or any successor or indebtedness of the Company is cancelled or converted or a combination thereof. The Company shall provide each of the Purchasers written notice no less than twenty (20) days’ notice prior to the effective date of such Change of Control transaction.

3.3 Conversion upon Initial Public Offering. If, after the date hereof and prior to conversion pursuant to Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5, an Initial Public Offering occurs, immediately prior to the closing of such Initial Public Offering, the entire unpaid principal amount and unpaid accrued interest (if any) of each Note shall be automatically converted into that number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock equal to the quotient of (i) the outstanding principal amount of the note plus accrued

4

interest (if any) divided by (ii) the price to the public of the shares of Common Stock to be sold in the Initial Public Offering. For purposes of the Loan Documents, “Initial Public Offering” shall mean the Company’s first firm commitment underwritten public offering of its Common Stock pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

3.4 Optional Conversion. If, after the date hereof and prior to conversion pursuant to Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 or 3.5, the Company consummates an equity financing, other than a Qualified Financing (a “Non-Qualified Financing”), each Holder shall have the option to covert its respective Note(s) into a number of shares of equity securities issued in the Non-Qualified Financing, equal to the quotient of (i) the outstanding principal amount of the note plus unpaid accrued interest (if any) divided by (ii) the lowest price per share paid by the investor in the Non-Qualified Financing. In addition, upon the election of the Purchaser Majority, the entire unpaid principal amount and unpaid accrued interest (if any) of each Note shall be automatically converted into that number of shares of equity securities issued in the Non-Qualified Financing in the same manner as specified in the foregoing sentence.

3.5 Conversion at Maturity. If the Notes have not been previously converted prior to the Maturity Date (as such term is defined in the Notes), upon the written election of the Purchaser Majority the entire unpaid principal amount and unpaid accrued interest (if any) of each Note shall be automatically converted into that number of shares of the Company’s Series C-2 Preferred equal to the quotient of (i) the outstanding principal amount plus unpaid accrued interest (if any) divided by (ii) the Series C-2 Original Issue Price.

3.6 Mechanics and Effect of Conversion. No fractional shares of the Company’s capital stock will be issued upon conversion of the Notes. In lieu of any fractional share to which a holder of a Note would otherwise be entitled, the Company will pay to such holder in cash the amount of the unconverted principal balance and accrued interest balance (if any) of such Note that would otherwise be converted into such fractional share. Upon conversion of the Notes pursuant to this Section 3, each holder shall surrender its Note(s), duly endorsed, at the principal offices of the Company or any transfer agent of the Company or provide evidence and indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of its Note(s). At its expense, the Company will, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver to such holder, at such principal office, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares to which such holder is entitled upon such conversion and a check or wire transfer payable to such holder for any cash amounts payable as described herein. Upon conversion of the Notes, the Company will be forever released from all of its obligations and liabilities under the Loan Documents including without limitation the obligation to pay the principal amount and accrued interest of the Notes.

3.7 Further Assurances. Each Purchaser understands that the conversion of the Notes into, and the sale and purchase of, equity securities of the Company may require such Purchaser’s execution of, among other things, (i) written actions for the amendment of the Company’s Restated Certificate, to increase the existing authorized capital stock of the Company and/or authorize a new series of preferred stock, and (ii) certain agreements relating to the purchase and sale of such securities as well as registration, co-sale and voting rights, if any, relating to such equity securities, and each Purchaser hereby agrees to execute such written actions and agreements and to take such further actions necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby upon request by the Company after the time of conversion.

All action on the Purchaser’s part required for the lawful execution and delivery of the Loan Documents has been taken.

The Purchaser also represents it was not organized solely for the purpose of acquiring the Securities.

5.3 Accredited Investor. The Purchaser represents that it is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of the Securities Act.

8

5.4 Foreign Investors. If the Purchaser is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), the Purchaser hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Securities or any use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Securities, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any government or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale or transfer of the Securities.

The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that such discussions, as well as any written information issued by the Company, (i) were intended to describe the aspects of the Company’s business which the Company believes to be material, but were not necessarily an exhaustive description, and (ii) may have contained forward-looking statements involving known and unknown risks and uncertainties which may cause the Company’s actual results in future periods or plans for future periods to differ materially from what was anticipated and that no representations or warranties were or are being made with respect to any such forward-looking statements or the probability of achieving any of the results projected in any of such forward-looking statements. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the representations and warranties of the Company in Section 4 of this Agreement or the right of the Purchaser to rely thereon.

5.7 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with the Purchaser in reliance upon the Purchaser’s representation to the Company, which by the Purchaser’s execution of this Agreement the Purchaser hereby confirms, that the Securities to be received by the Purchaser will be acquired for investment for the Purchaser’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that the Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. The Purchaser further represents that it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to the Securities.

5.8 Restricted Securities. The Purchaser understands that the Securities are characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such Securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, the Purchaser represents that it is familiar with Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act.

Each Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that if a Purchaser holds, at the time of delivery of the Issuance Notice (as defined in the Restated Certificate), an aggregate of at least 60,000 shares of the Company’s Series C-1 Preferred Stock (the “Series C-1 Preferred”) or the Company’s Series C-2 Preferred Stock (the “Series C-2 Preferred”) (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations and the like) and fails to purchase (a) in the Initial Closing and (b) the Second Closing, if any, a Note in the principal amount set forth on Exhibit A under “Initial Closing Note Amount” and “Second Closing Note Amount,” as applicable, then (i) all of the total shares of Series C-1 Preferred and Series C-2 Preferred then-held by such Purchaser shall automatically be converted into shares of the Company’s Common Stock on a 10-for-1 basis in accordance with Article IV.D.5(p) of the Restated Certificate and (ii) to the extent that the Series C-1 Preferred Conversion Price (as defined in the Restated Certificate) or Series C-2 Conversion Price (as defined in the Restated Certificate) has been adjusted pursuant to a previously Qualifying Dilutive Issuance (as defined in the Restated Certificate) the conversion of the Series C-1 Preferred and/or Series C-2 Preferred, as applicable, shall apply as if no such previous adjustment(s) had been applied to the Series C-1 Conversion Price or Series C-2 Conversion Price, and (iii) all rights with respect to the Series C-1 Preferred and/or Series C-2 Preferred converted pursuant to Article IV.D.5(p) of the Restated Certificate will terminate at the time of such conversion (notwithstanding the failure of the holder or holders thereof to surrender the certificates for such shares on or prior to such time), except only the rights of the holders thereof, upon surrender of the certificate or certificates therefor, to receive a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable on such conversion. Any person or entity to whom shares of Series C-1 Preferred and/or Series C-2 Preferred are transferred by a Purchaser, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, shall be bound by this Section 5.10, and such shares shall remain subject to the conversion provisions hereunder and under the Restated Certificate, as may be amended from time to time, until such time as all Notes that the transferring Purchaser was required to purchase at the Closings are purchased. In addition, in the event that a Purchaser fails to purchase Notes in the principal amount allocated to it in the Initial Closing or Second Closing such Notes shall be made available for the Purchasers who participate in such Closing to purchase on a pro rata basis (based on the principal amount of the Notes such participating Investors have purchased in the Initial Closing or Second Closing, as applicable).

5.11 Legends. The Purchaser understands that the Securities, and any securities issued in respect thereof or exchange therefor, may bear one or all of the following legends:

(a) “THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT OR QUALIFICATION RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION OR QUALIFICATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.”

(b) “THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO, AND MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN COMPLIANCE WITH, THAT CERTAIN CONVERTIBLE NOTE AND WARRANT PURCHASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE HOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER.”

10

(c) Any legend required by the blue sky laws of any state to the extent such laws are applicable to the securities represented by the certificate or other document so legended, and any legends placed on the New Preferred Stock in connection with the Qualified Financing or such other equity securities issued upon conversion of the Notes.
