WHEREAS, the Company is proposing to issue and sell to the Investor (the “Offering”) $40 million of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), in connection with the Company’s initial public offering of Common Stock (“IPO”), pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement;

WHEREAS, the closing of the Offering shall take place concurrently with the closing of the IPO (such date, the “Closing Date”) and at a price per share equal to the initial public offering price per share that the Common Stock is sold to the public in the IPO (the “IPO Price”);

WHEREAS, the shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”) are being offered to the Investor pursuant to a private placement exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); and

WHEREAS, in order to effect the IPO, the Company shall enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. LLC (“Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx”) and X.X.

1.1 Purchase and Sale. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company hereby agrees to sell to the Investor, and the Investor hereby agrees to purchase from the Company, $40 million of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Investment Amount”), free of restrictions on transfer and any other liens, restrictions or encumbrances, other than restrictions on transfer under applicable state and federal securities laws and the Lock-Up Agreement (defined below), at the IPO Price. The number of Shares shall equal the number of shares determined by dividing the Investment Amount by the IPO Price (rounded down to the nearest whole share). The total purchase price to be paid by the Investor for the Shares is equal to (i) the number of Shares multiplied by (ii) the IPO Price (the “Purchase Price”).

1.2 Closing. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Shares (the “Closing”) shall occur, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of each of the conditions set forth in Sections 4 and 5 of this Agreement (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the fulfillment or waiver of those conditions), concurrently with the Closing. At the Closing, (i) the Company shall cause the Company’s transfer agent to deliver the Shares to the Investor registered in the name of the Investor, together with an email confirmation from the Company’s transfer agent of such registration at Closing (with written evidence of such registration to follow promptly after Closing to be dated as of the Closing Date), evidencing that the Shares have been issued and registered in the name of the Investor, and (ii) the Purchase Price for the Shares shall be delivered by or on behalf of the Investor to the Company.

Payment by the Investor of the Purchase Price to the Company shall be made at the Closing by wire transfer of immediately available funds equal to the aggregate purchase price for the Shares to an account specified in writing by the Company no later than ten (10) business days in advance of the Closing. For purposes of this Agreement, “business day” means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which banking institutions are generally authorized or required by law to close in New York, New York or Tokyo, Japan. Payment of the Purchase Price for the Shares shall be made against delivery to the Investor of the Shares, which Shares shall be uncertificated and shall be registered in the name of the Investor on the books of the Company by the Company’s transfer agent.

1.4 Most Favorable Terms. From the date hereof until and including the Closing Date, the Company shall not (i) issue or sell any shares of its Common Stock at a price lower than the IPO Price, (ii) issue, register for sale or sell any equity interests on terms (including pricing terms) more favorable to any investor than the terms and conditions of the purchase and sale of the Shares under this Agreement, or (iii) agree to do any of the foregoing.

3.8 Restricted Securities.

In this connection, the Investor represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act.

INVESTORS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THEY MAY BE REQUIRED TO BEAR THE FINANCIAL RISKS OF THIS INVESTMENT FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD OF TIME. THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY PROPOSED TRANSFER OR RESALE IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.”

(b) “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO A LOCK-UP PERIOD AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE ISSUER’S REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILED UNDER THE ACT, AS AMENDED, AS SET FORTH IN AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SECURITIES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE ISSUER’S PRINCIPAL OFFICE. SUCH LOCK-UP PERIOD IS BINDING ON TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES.”

3.10 Lock-Up Agreement. The Investor hereby confirms that it has executed and delivered to the Underwriters the lock-up agreement provided by the Company (the “Lock-Up Agreement”).

7.6 Indemnity. Each of the Company and the Investor (an “Indemnifying Party”) shall indemnify and hold each other and their directors, officers, employees, advisors and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and against any losses, claims or damages, including but not limited to any investigative, legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amounts paid in settlement of, any pending legal action or proceeding resulting from or arising out of: (i) the breach of any representation or warranty of such Indemnifying Party contained in this Agreement; or (ii) the violation or nonperformance, partial or total, of any covenant or agreement of such Indemnifying Party contained in this Agreement.

7.7 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 Investor.

7.8 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, portions of such provision, or such provision in its entirety, to the extent necessary, shall be severed from this Agreement, and such court will replace such illegal, void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the same economic, business and other purposes of the illegal, void or unenforceable provision. The balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

7.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents referred to herein constitute the entire agreement among the parties. No party shall be liable or bound to any other party in any manner with regard to the subjects hereof or thereof by any warranties, representations or covenants except as specifically set forth herein or therein.

7.10 Specific Performance. The parties to this Agreement hereby acknowledge and agree that the Company would be irreparably injured by a breach of this Agreement by the Investor, and the Investor would be irreparably injured by a breach of this Agreement by the Company, and that money damages are an inadequate remedy for an actual or threatened breach of this Agreement because of the difficulty of ascertaining the amount of damage that will be suffered by the aggrieved party in the event that this Agreement is breached. Therefore, each of the parties to this Agreement agree to the granting of specific performance of this Agreement and injunctive or other equitable relief in favor of the aggrieved party as a remedy for any such breach, without proof of actual damages, and the parties to this Agreement further waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with any such remedy. Such remedy shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedy for breach of this Agreement, but shall be in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity to the aggrieved party.

7.11 Public Disclosure. On or before March 31, 2022, the Company shall file an amendment to the Registration Statement including the preliminary prospectus to reflect the transactions contemplated hereby, which shall reference the investment by the Investor. No other written release, announcement or filing concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be issued, filed or furnished, as the case may be, by any party without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except as such release, announcement

or filing as may be required by law or the rules or regulations of any securities exchange, in which case the party required to make the release or announcement shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, allow the other party reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance. The provisions of this Section shall not restrict the ability of a party to summarize or describe the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in the Registration Statement or any registration statements, reports, schedules, forms, prospectuses, proxy statements and other documents filed with or furnished to the SEC so long as the other party is provided a reasonable opportunity to review such disclosure in advance; provided that, the Investor shall have the right to review and consent to the portions of any such disclosure which refers to the names of the Investor and any of its affiliated persons or entities, including the preliminary prospectus and the amendment to the Registration Statement referenced in the first sentence of this paragraph (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

7.12 Rule 144. (a) With a view to making available to the Investor the benefits of Rule 144 or any similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may permit the Investor to sell the Shares to the public without registration, for so long as the Investor holds the Shares, the Company shall (i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, (ii) file and submit all reports, Interactive Data Files and other materials required to be filed or submitted by Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements and the filing or submission of such reports, Interactive Data Files and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144, and (iii) furnish to the Investor so long as such the Investor owns the Shares acquired hereunder, promptly upon reasonable written request, (x) a written statement by the Company, if true, that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and (y) such other information as may reasonably be requested to enable the Investor to sell the Shares under Rule 144 without registration.

(b) In connection with any sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of the Shares by the Investor pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to any other exemption under the Securities Act such that the Shares held by the Investor become freely tradable, if requested by the Investor, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Company’s transfer agent for the Shares to remove any restrictive legends related to the book entry account holding such Shares and to make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry Shares sold or disposed of without restrictive legends within two (2) trading days of any such request therefor from the Investor. In connection therewith, if required by the Company’s transfer agent, at the Company’s expense, the Company shall promptly cause an opinion of counsel to be delivered to and maintained with the Company’s transfer agent, together with any other authorizations, certificates and directions required by the Company’s transfer agent that authorize and direct the Company’s transfer agent to issue such Shares without any such restrictive legend.
