(a) Filing.

The Company shall maintain the Shelf in accordance with the terms hereof, and shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements as may be necessary to keep such Shelf effective and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities. In the event the Company files a Form S-1 Shelf, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to convert the Form S-1 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration) to a Form S-3 Shelf as soon as practicable after the Company is eligible to use Form S-3.

Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be on Form S-3 to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be on another appropriate form and shall provide for the registration of such Registrable Securities for resale by the Holders in accordance with any reasonable method of distribution elected by the Demand Holders and the QPAC Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to file a Subsequent Shelf Registration if (i) the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities represents less than 5% of the then outstanding Common Stock and (ii) the Company is ineligible to use a Form S-3 Shelf; provided that the Company shall be required to file a Subsequent Shelf Registration if it thereafter becomes eligible to use a Form S-3 Shelf.

Holder or HGM Demand Holder may request to sell all or any portion of their Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering that is registered pursuant to the Shelf (each, an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”).

Each Demand Shelf Takedown Notice shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the expected price range (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown. Within three days after receipt of any Demand Shelf Takedown Notice (except with respect to an Underwritten Block Trade for the purpose of generating proceeds to repay the PIPE Financing or for the purpose of satisfying any collateral maintenance requirement pursuant to the PIPE Financing), the Company shall give written notice of such requested Underwritten Shelf Takedown to all other Holders of Registrable Securities (the “Company Shelf Takedown Notice”) and, subject to the provisions of Section 5 below, shall include in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within ten days after sending the Company Shelf Takedown Notice.

(e) Selection of Underwriters. Apollo and the HGM Group, acting together, (or the HGM Group, acting alone, with respect to an Underwritten Block Trade for the purpose of generating proceeds to repay the PIPE Financing or for the purpose of satisfying any collateral maintenance requirement pursuant to the PIPE Financing) shall have the right to select the investment banker(s) and manager(s) to administer the offering (which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks), subject to the Company’s prior approval which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(f) Other Registration Rights. The Company represents and warrants that it is not a party to, or otherwise subject to, any other agreement granting registration rights to any other Person with respect to any securities of the Company, including securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable into or for shares of any equity securities of the Company, except for (i) the provisions of Section 7.16(h) of the Business Combination Agreement, (ii) that certain Warrant Agreement, dated January 15, 2015, between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, providing for the registration of the resale of an aggregate of 17,500,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of an aggregate of 35,000,000 warrants to purchase Common Stock, each warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one-half of one share of Common Stock and (iii) registration rights pursuant to those certain Subscription Agreements, dated June 15, 2017, by and between the Company and Avenue PPF Opportunities Fund, L.P., Avenue Special Opportunities Fund II, L.P., Apollo Novitex Holdings, L.P., Cantor Xxxxxxxxxx & Co., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Delos Investment Fund, LP, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Ex-Sigma LLC, HOVS LLC and HandsOn Fund 4 I, LLC, Greenlight Capital Qualified, L.P., Greenlight Capital, L.P., Greenlight Capital (Gold), LP, Greenlight Capital Offshore Partners, Greenlight Reinsurance, Ltd., Greenlight Capital Offshore Master (Gold), Ltd., HandsOn Global Management, LLC, Halcyon Solutions Master Fund LP and HCN LP, Harperbee, LLC, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co.

3. Demand Registrations.

(a) Requests for Registration. At any time after the Effective Date, any Demand Holder (in such capacity, the “Requesting Holder”) may request (i) registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of the Registrable Securities held by such Requesting Holder on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration (a “Short-Form Registration”), if available, and (ii) registration under the Securities Act of all or any portion of the Registrable Securities held by such Requesting Holder on Form S-1 or similar long-form registration (a “Long-Form Registration”) if Short-Form Registration is not available (any registration under this Section 3(a), a “Demand Registration”); provided that, in the case of a Demand Registration, such Demand Holder will be entitled to make such demand only if the total offering price of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering (including piggyback shares and before deduction of underwriting discounts) is reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $25,000,000 (or in the case of the HGM Group, the remaining balance of the PIPE Financing if lower). Any Requesting Holder may request that any offering conducted under a Long-Form Registration or a Short-Form Registration be underwritten.

(b) Demand Registration Notices. All requests for Demand Registrations shall be made by giving written notice to the Company (the “Demand Registration Notice”). Each Demand Registration Notice shall specify (i) whether such Demand Registration shall be an underwritten offering, (ii) the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Demand Registration and (iii) the expected price range (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) of such Demand Registration. Within five days after receipt of any Demand Registration Notice (except with respect to an Underwritten Block Trade for the purpose of generating proceeds to repay the PIPE Financing or for the purpose of satisfying any collateral maintenance requirement pursuant to the PIPE Financing), the Company shall give written notice of such requested Demand Registration to all other Holders of Registrable Securities (the “Company Demand Registration Notice”) and, subject to the provisions of Section 5 below, shall include in such Demand Registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within 10 days after sending the Company Demand Registration Notice.

(c) Demand Registration Effectiveness. A registration shall not count as one of the permitted Demand Registrations until both (i) it has become effective (unless such Demand Registration has not become effective due solely to the fault of the Demand Holder requesting such registration) and (ii) the Demand Holder initially requesting such registration is able to register and sell pursuant to such registration at least 80% of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration either at the time of the registration or within 90 days thereafter; provided that a Demand Registration which is withdrawn at the sole request of

the Demand Holder who demanded such Demand Registration will count as a Demand Registration unless the Company is reimbursed by such Demand Holder for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Company in connection with such registration, including reasonable attorney and accounting fees.

(d) Short-Form Registrations. Demand Registrations shall be Short-Form Registrations whenever the Company is permitted to use an applicable short form. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to make Short-Form Registrations on Form S-3 (or any successor form) available for the sale of Registrable Securities.

(e) Restrictions on Demand Registrations.

(i) Except in connection with any Demand Registration made by the HGM Demand Holders for the purpose of generating proceeds to repay the PIPE Financing or for the purpose of satisfying any collateral maintenance requirement pursuant to the PIPE Financing, the Company shall not be obligated to effect (a) any Long-Form Registration within 90 days or (b) any Short-Form Registration within 45 days, in each case, after the effective date of a previous Demand Registration or a previous registration in which the Holders of Registrable Securities were given piggyback rights pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement and in which such Holders were able to register and sell at least 80% of the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included therein. In addition, except in connection with any Demand Registration made by the HGM Demand Holders for the purpose of generating proceeds to repay the PIPE Financing or for the purpose of satisfying any collateral maintenance requirement pursuant to the PIPE Financing, the Company shall not be obligated to effect any Demand Registration during the period starting with the date that is 60 days prior to the Board’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on the date that is 120 days (unless the underwriting agreement requires a longer period of time) after the effective date of, a Company initiated registration statement, provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration to become effective, and provided further that the aggregate number of days that any one or more Demand Registrations are suspended or delayed by operation of this Section 3(e)(i) shall not exceed 120 days in any 12-month period. In the event of any such suspension or delay, the Holder of Registrable Securities initially requesting a Demand Registration that is suspended by operation of this Section 3(e)(i) shall be entitled to withdraw such request and, if such request is withdrawn, such Demand Registration shall not count as one of the permitted Demand Registrations hereunder, and, notwithstanding the proviso in Section 3(c), the Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with such registration.

(ii) The Apollo Demand Holders and the HGM Demand Holders shall each be entitled to request up to five Demand Registrations. In addition, the HGM Demand Holders shall be entitled to request up to three Demand Registrations for the purpose of generating proceeds to repay the PIPE Financing or for the purpose of satisfying any collateral maintenance requirement pursuant to the PIPE Financing.

(f) Selection of Underwriters. The Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Demand Registration which is an underwritten offering (or the HGM Group, acting alone, with respect to an Underwritten Block Trade for the purpose

of generating proceeds to repay the PIPE Financing or for the purpose of satisfying any collateral maintenance requirement pursuant to the PIPE Financing) shall have the right to select the investment banker(s) and manager(s) to administer the offering (which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks), subject to the approval of the Company, the Apollo Demand Holders and the HGM Demand Holders (except with respect to an Underwritten Block Trade for the purpose of generating proceeds to repay the PIPE Financing or for the purpose of satisfying any collateral maintenance requirement pursuant to the PIPE Financing), which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(g) Transfer of Demand Rights. The rights of a Holder under this Section 3 may be transferred, assigned or otherwise conveyed in whole or in part, to any transferee or assignee, including any distribution of shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock by New LLC to the holders of membership interests of New LLC, (other than a transfer pursuant to a registration statement or under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act) who, following such transfer, assignment or conveyance, holds at least 20% of the outstanding Common Stock held by such Holder as of the Effective Date, provided that the requirements of Section 14 are satisfied. For the avoidance of doubt, any transferee of an Apollo Demand Holder or HGM Demand Holder shall be deemed to be an Apollo Demand Holder or HGM Demand Holder, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement (provided that, in connection with any distribution of shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock by New LLC to the holders of membership interests of New LLC as contemplated by Section 14, such transferees shall only be an HGM Demand Holder if they are members of the HGM Group or otherwise designated as an HGM Demand Holder by New LLC). In the case of any such assignment, the applicable Demand Holder shall inform the Company how many remaining Demand Registrations the transferee shall have, which shall not exceed the maximum number set forth in Section 3(e)(ii).

4. Piggyback Takedowns.

(a) Right to Piggyback. Whenever the Company proposes to register any of its securities (whether or not following a request by a Demand Holder), including a registration pursuant to any registration rights agreement not prohibited by this agreement (a “Piggyback Registration”), or proposes to offer any Common Stock pursuant to a registration statement in an underwritten offering of Common Stock under the Securities Act (whether or not following a request by a Demand Holder) (together with a Piggyback Registration, a “Piggyback Takedown”), the Company shall give prompt written notice to all Holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to effect such Piggyback Takedown. In the case of a Piggyback Takedown that is an underwritten offering under a shelf registration statement, such notice shall be given not less than ten Business Days prior to the expected date of commencement of marketing efforts for such Piggyback Takedown. In the case of a Piggyback Takedown that is an underwritten offering under a registration statement that is not a shelf registration statement, such notice shall be given not less than ten Business Days prior to the expected date of filing of such registration statement. The Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 5 below, include in such Piggyback Takedown, as applicable, all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within five Business Days after sending the Company’s notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) the Company may determine not to proceed with any Piggyback Takedown upon written notice to the Holders of Registrable Securities requesting to include their Registrable Securities in such

Piggyback Takedown; provided, however, that nothing in this clause (i) shall impair the right of any Demand Holder to request that such registration be effected pursuant to Section 2 or Section 3; (ii) any Holder of Registrable Securities may withdraw its request for inclusion by giving written notice to the Company of its intention to withdraw that registration; provided, however, that the withdrawal shall be irrevocable and after making the withdrawal, a Holder shall no longer have any right to include its Registrable Securities in that Piggyback Takedown; and (iii) the provisions of this Section 4 shall not apply to any Underwritten Block Trade for the purpose of generating proceeds to repay the PIPE Financing or for the purpose of satisfying any collateral maintenance requirement pursuant to the PIPE Financing.

(b) Selection of Underwriters. If any Piggyback Takedown is an underwritten offering, the Company will have the sole right to select the investment banker(s) and manager(s), acceptable to the Apollo Demand Holder and the HGM Demand Holders, for the offering.

5. Priority.

(a) Priority on Primary Offerings and Offerings Initiated by Holders of Other Registration Rights. If the Company determines, after consultation with the Apollo Demand Holders, the HGM Demand Holders and the managing underwriter in any underwritten Piggyback Takedown that was not initiated by a Demand Holder pursuant to this Agreement, that less than all of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such underwritten offering can be sold in an orderly manner within a price range acceptable to the Company or the holders of the Company’s securities demanding such Piggyback Takedown pursuant to a registration rights agreement not prohibited by this agreement, as applicable, after consultation with the Apollo Demand Holders and the HGM Demand Holders, then the Company shall include in such underwritten Piggyback Registration the number which can be so sold in the following order of priority:

(i) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell;

(ii) second, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Piggyback Registration by New LLC for the purpose of generating proceeds to repay the PIPE Financing or for the purpose of satisfying any collateral maintenance requirement pursuant to the PIPE Financing; and

(iv) fourth, other securities requested to be included in such underwritten Piggyback Takedown.

(b) Priority on Offerings Initiated by Demand Holders. If the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in any underwritten offering initiated by a Demand Holder pursuant to this Agreement determine, after consultation with the Company and the managing underwriter in such offering, that less than all of the Registrable

Securities requested to be included in such underwritten offering can be sold in an orderly manner within a price range acceptable to such Holders, then the Company shall include in such underwritten offering the number which can be so sold in the following order of priority:

(i) first, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in accordance with this Agreement by New LLC for the purpose of generating proceeds to repay the PIPE Financing or for the purpose of satisfying any collateral maintenance requirement pursuant to the PIPE Financing;

(ii) second, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in accordance with this Agreement by the Apollo Demand Holders, the HGM Demand Holders, the QPAC Holders, the Third Party Holders and the holders entitled to participate in such Piggyback Takedown pursuant to a registration rights agreement not prohibited by this agreement, pro rata on the basis of the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Holders;

(iii) third, the securities the Company proposes to sell; and

(iv) fourth, other securities requested to be included in such underwritten offering.

6. Suspension Period.

(a) Suspension Period. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the Board determines in good faith that the registration and distribution of Registrable Securities (i) would reasonably be expected to materially impede, delay or interfere with, or require premature disclosure of, any material financing, offering, acquisition, merger, corporate reorganization, segment reclassification or discontinuance of operations that is required to be reflected in pro forma or restated financial statements that amends historical financial statement of the Company, or other significant transaction or any negotiations, discussions or pending proposals with respect thereto, involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or (ii) would require disclosure of non-public material information, the disclosure of which would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the Company, the Company shall be entitled to suspend, for not more than 60 days (a “Suspension Period”), the use of any Registration Statement or Prospectus and shall not be required to amend or supplement the Registration Statement, any related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference; provided that a Suspension Period may not suspend more than 30 days with respect to the use of any Registration Statement or Prospectus for the purpose of generating proceeds to repay the PIPE Financing or for the purpose of satisfying any collateral maintenance requirement pursuant to the PIPE Financing. The Company promptly will give written notice of any such Suspension Period to each Person that has securities registered on a Registration Statement filed hereunder.

(b) Limitations on Suspension Periods. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 6 to the contrary, the Company shall not be entitled to more than two Suspension Periods in any 12-month period.

7. Holdback Agreements.

(a) During the period commencing on the Effective Date and continuing until the calendar date that is six months following the Effective Date, no Holder shall offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of or distribute (“Transfer”) any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into, exercisable for, exchangeable for Common Stock, whether now owned or hereinafter acquired but excluding in all cases any PIPE Financing Shares, owned directly by the Holder (including securities held as a custodian) or with respect to which the Holder has beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the Commission (collectively, the “Restricted Shares”), except in the event the underwriters managing any Shelf Takedown or other underwritten public equity offering by the Company otherwise agree by written consent or pursuant to a Transfer permitted by Section 7(c). For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing restriction does not apply to shares of Common Stock purchased by the Holder for cash. The foregoing restriction is expressly agreed to preclude each Holder from engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition of the Restricted Shares even if such Restricted Shares would be disposed of by someone other than such Holder. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions include any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including any put or call option) with respect to any of the Restricted Shares of the applicable Holder or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from such Restricted Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the restrictions set forth in this Section 7(a) shall not apply to (i) an aggregate of 3,016,071 shares of Common Stock held by the QPAC Holders and the QPAC Founders, as designated by the QPAC Holders pursuant to the Forfeiture Agreement, which may be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise disposed of as of the Effective Date (the “Founder Shares”), (ii) any person who ceases to be employed by Novitex after the date of the Business Combination Agreement or (iii) any person who was a director of Novitex prior to the Closing (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) and is or was not a director of the Company immediately subsequent to the Closing.

(b) Holders of Registrable Securities. In connection with any Shelf Takedown or other underwritten public offering of equity securities by the Company (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any Underwritten Block Trade for the purpose of generating proceeds to repay the PIPE Financing or for the purpose of satisfying any collateral maintenance requirement pursuant to the PIPE Financing), subject to Section 7(c), no Holder of more than 5% of the equity securities of the Company, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, shall Transfer any Restricted Shares (other than those Registrable Securities included in such registration pursuant to this Agreement), without the prior written consent of the Company, during the seven days prior to and the 90-day period beginning on the date of pricing of such Shelf Takedown or other underwritten public offering (the “Lock-Up Period”), except in the event the underwriters managing the Shelf Takedown or other underwritten public equity offering by the Company otherwise agree by written consent or pursuant to a Transfer permitted by Section 7(c). Each such Holder agrees to execute a lock-up agreement in favor of the Company’s underwriters to such effect (in each case on substantially the same terms and conditions as all such Holders) and, in any event, that the Company’s underwriters in any relevant Shelf Takedown or other underwritten public offering shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 7(b); provided that each such Holder shall only be required to

execute such lock-up if the directors and executive officers of the Company have executed a lock-up on terms at least as restrictive with respect to the relevant Shelf Takedown or other underwritten public offering. The provisions of this Section 7(b) will no longer apply to a Holder once such Holder ceases to hold Registrable Securities or 5% or less of the equity securities of the Company.

(c) Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 7, a Holder may Transfer Restricted Shares (i) as a bona fide gift; (ii) to any trust or entity wholly owned by one or more trusts for the direct or indirect benefit of (A) the Holder or its stockholders, partners, members or beneficiaries or (B) of any individual related to such Holder or to the stockholders, partners, members or beneficiaries of such Holder, by blood, marriage or adoption and not more remote than first cousin; (iii) if a Holder is a corporation, limited liability company, partnership or trust, such Holder may Transfer Restricted Shares to any wholly-owned subsidiary thereof, or to the Affiliates, stockholders, partners, members or beneficiaries of such Holder; (iv) pursuant to any take-over bid, acquisition, sale or merger involving the Company; (v) with the prior written consent of the Company and each other Holder; provided that in each case such distributees or transferees agree to be bound by the restrictions set forth in this Section 7. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 7, a Holder may Transfer shares of Common Stock pursuant to (1) any pledge made by New LLC in connection with the PIPE Financing, (2) any Transfer made by New LLC in connection with a default under the PIPE Financing, (3) any Transfer by New LLC for the purpose of generating proceeds to repay the PIPE Financing or for the purpose of satisfying any collateral maintenance requirement pursuant to the PIPE Financing, or (4) any distribution of shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock by New LLC to the holders of membership interests of New LLC upon repayment of the PIPE Financing, provided that the requirements of Section 14 are satisfied in connection with such distribution.

(d) The Company. In connection with any Shelf Takedown, the Company shall not effect any public sale or distribution of its equity securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities (except pursuant to registrations on Form S-8 or Form S-4 under the Securities Act), during the seven days prior to and the 90-day period beginning on the date of pricing of such Shelf Takedown or such other period provided in the underwriting, placement or similar agreement executed in connection with such Shelf Takedown.

All Selling Expenses relating to Registrable Securities registered shall be borne by the selling Holders of such Registrable Securities pro rata on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities sold.

10. Indemnification; Contribution.

(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Registrable Securities, the Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, members, managers and agents of each such Holder and each Person who controls any such Holder within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any losses, claims, expenses, damages and liabilities or whatever kind (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending same and the cost of enforcing any right to indemnification hereunder) (collectively, “Losses”) to which they or any of them may become subject insofar as such Losses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or the Disclosure Package, or any preliminary, final or summary Prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus included in any such Registration Statement, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other federal law, any state or foreign securities law, or any rule or regulation promulgated under of the foregoing laws, relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities, and in any such case, the Company agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such Loss, claim, damage, liability, action or investigation (whether or not the indemnified party is a party to any proceeding); provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any case to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information relating to such Holder furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any such Holder specifically for inclusion therein, including any notice and questionnaire. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.

(b) Indemnification by the Holders. Each Holder severally (and not jointly) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each of its Affiliates, directors, employees, members, managers and agents and each Person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all Losses to which they or any of them may become

subject insofar as such Losses arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in the Disclosure Package or any Holder Free Writing Prospectus, preliminary, final or summary Prospectus included in any such Registration Statement, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent, that any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission is contained in any written information relating to such Holder furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion therein; provided, however, that the total amount to be indemnified by such Holder pursuant to this Section 10(b) shall be limited to the net proceeds (after deducting underwriters’ discounts and commissions) received by such Holder in the offering to which such Registration Statement or Prospectus relates; provided, further, that a Holder shall not be liable in any case to the extent that prior to the filing of any such Registration Statement or Disclosure Package, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, such Holder has furnished in writing to the Company, information expressly for use in, and within a reasonable period of time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or Disclosure Package, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto which corrected or made not misleading information previously provided to the Company. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any such Holder may otherwise have.

(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 10 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 10, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve the indemnifying party from liability under Section 10(a) or Section 10(b) above unless and to the extent such action and such failure results in material prejudice to the indemnifying party and forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses; and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in Section 10(a) or Section 10(b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and, except as provided in the next sentence, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election to so assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s rights in the prior sentence, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ one firm of separate counsel (and one local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable, documented fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if:

(i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with an actual or potential conflict of interest;

(ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party;

(iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within 10 days after notice of the institution of such action or such earlier time as may be necessary to pursue appropriate defenses, rights, and remedies; or

(iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party.

No indemnifying party shall, in connection with any one action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general circumstances or allegations, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties. An indemnifying party shall not be liable under this Section 10 to any indemnified party regarding any settlement or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent is consented to by such indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise that (x) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff therein, to such indemnified party, of a full and final release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation or (y) includes a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such indemnified party.

(d) Contribution.

(i) In the event that the indemnity provided in Section 10(a) or Section 10(b) above is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, then each applicable indemnifying party agrees to contribute to the aggregate Losses to which such indemnifying party may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on the one hand and by the indemnified party on the other from the offering of the Common Stock. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to

information supplied by the indemnifying party on the one hand or the indemnified party on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(ii) The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 10(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders of Registrable Securities or any agents or underwriters or all of them were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 10(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the Losses (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section 10(d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such action or claim.

(iii) For purposes of this Section 10, each Person who controls any Holder of Registrable Securities, agent or underwriter within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of any such Holder, agent or underwriter shall have the same rights to contribution as such Holder, agent or underwriter, and each Person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and each officer and director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this Section 10(d).

(e) The provisions of this Section 10 will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Holder of Registrable Securities or the Company or any of the officers, directors or controlling Persons referred to in this Section 10 hereof, and will survive the transfer of Registrable Securities.

(f) To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 10 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (i) no Person involved in the sale of Registrable Securities which Person is guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) in connection with such sale shall be entitled to contribution from any Person involved in such sale of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration.

11. Participation in Underwritten Offering/Sale of Registrable Securities.

(a) No Person may participate in any underwritten offering hereunder unless such Person (i) agrees to enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form and provide the representations and warranties, and indemnities to the underwriters and the Company and to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any such underwriting agreement and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting

arrangements; provided that no Holder of Registrable Securities included in any underwritten offering shall be required to make any representations or warranties to the Company or the underwriters (other than representations and warranties regarding (A) such Holder’s ownership of its Registrable Securities to be sold or transferred free and clear of liens, (B) such Holder’s power and authority to effect, and lack of conflicts in effecting, such transfer and (C) such matters pertaining to compliance with securities laws as may be reasonably requested) or to undertake any indemnification obligations to the Company, except as otherwise provided in Section 10(b) hereof, or to the underwriters, except to the extent of the indemnification being given to the Company and its controlling persons in Section 10(b) hereof.

(b) Each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice contemplated in Section 6(a), such Holder will promptly discontinue the disposition of its Registrable Securities pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement.

12. Rule 144.

With a view to making available to the Holders of Registrable Securities the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, the Company covenants that it will (a) make available information necessary to comply with Rule 144, if available with respect to resales of the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, at all times, and (b) take such further action as such Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (if available with respect to resales of the Registrable Securities), as such rule may be amended from time to time. Upon the reasonable request of any Holder of Registrable Securities, the Company will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such information requirements, and, if not, the specific reasons for non-compliance.

13. Private Placement

Except for Section 7(a) and Section 7(b), the Company agrees that nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the Holders, at any time and from time to time, from selling or otherwise transferring Registrable Securities pursuant to a private placement or other transaction which is not registered pursuant to the Securities Act. To the extent requested by a Holder, the Company shall take all reasonable steps to assist and cooperate with such Holder to facilitate such sale or transfer, including providing reasonable due diligence access to potential purchasers.

14. Transfer of Registration Rights.

The rights of a Holder hereunder may be transferred, assigned, or otherwise conveyed on a pro rata basis in connection with any transfer, assignment, or other conveyance of Registrable Securities to any transferee or assignee, including any distribution of shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock by New LLC to the holders of membership interests of New LLC, (other than a transfer pursuant to a registration statement or under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, and except with respect to transfers of Demand Registration rights which may be transferred in whole and not in part as provided in Section 3(g)); provided that all

of the following additional conditions are satisfied with respect to any transfer, assignment or conveyance of rights hereunder: (a) such transfer or assignment is effected in accordance with applicable securities laws; (b) such transferee or assignee agrees in writing to become subject to the terms of this Agreement by executing a joinder or similar document; and (c) the Company is given written notice by such Holder of such transfer or assignment, stating the name and address of the transferee or assignee, identifying the Registrable Securities with respect to which such rights are being transferred or assigned and specifying whether or not the Demand Registration rights pursuant to Section 3 have been assigned. Any transfer, assignment or other conveyance of the rights of a Holder in breach of this Agreement shall be void and of no effect. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the assignment of any rights hereunder by New LLC to a lender in connection with the PIPE Financing.

15. Amendment, Modification and Waivers; Further Assurances.

(a) Amendment. This Agreement may be amended with the consent of the Company and the Company may take any action herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by it, only if the Company shall have obtained the written consent of each of the Apollo Demand Holders, the HGM Demand Holders and the QPAC Holders to such amendment, action or omission to act; provided that no such amendment, action or omission that adversely affects, alters or changes the rights of any Holder in a manner disproportionate to other similarly situated Holders shall be effective against such Holder without the prior written consent of such Holder.

(b) Consents and Actions of Demand Holders. Subject to Section 3(g), if any action or consent is requested of the Apollo Demand Holders or the HGM Demand Holders, such action may be taken and any such consent shall be deemed granted if and only if holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities held by the Apollo Demand Holders and holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities held by the HGM Demand Holders s take such action or grant such consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Apollo Demand Holder or HGM Demand Holder may request a Demand Registration, in accordance with the terms of Section 3(a).

(c) Effect of Waiver. No waiver of any terms or conditions of this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any other breach of such terms and conditions or any other term or condition, nor shall any failure to enforce any provision hereof operate as a waiver of such provision or of any other provision hereof. No written waiver hereunder, unless it by its own terms explicitly provides to the contrary, shall be construed to effect a continuing waiver of the provisions being waived and no such waiver in any instance shall constitute a waiver in any other instance or for any other purpose or impair the right of the party against whom such waiver is claimed in all other instances or for all other purposes to require full compliance with such provision. The failure of any party to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of such provision and shall not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce each provision of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

(d) Further Assurances. Each of the parties hereto shall execute all such further instruments and documents and take all such further action as any other party hereto may reasonably require in order to effectuate the terms and purposes of this Agreement.

16. Miscellaneous.

(a) Adjustments. If, and as often as, there are any changes in the Common Stock by way of stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification, or through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or sale, or by any other means, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the provisions of this Agreement, as may be required, so that the rights, privileges, duties and obligations hereunder shall continue with respect to the Common Stock as so changed.

(b) Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto (including any trustee in bankruptcy) whether so expressed or not. In addition, whether or not any express assignment has been made, the provisions of this Agreement which are for the benefit of purchasers or Holders of Registrable Securities are also for the benefit of, and enforceable by, any subsequent Holder of Registrable Securities. No assignment or delegation of this Agreement by the Company, or any of the Company’s rights, interests or obligations hereunder, shall be effective against any Holder without the prior written consent of such Holder.

(c) Remedies; Specific Performance. Any Person having rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically, to recover damages caused by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights existing in their favor. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement and that any party may in its sole discretion apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive relief (without posting any bond or other security) in order to enforce or prevent violation of the provisions of this Agreement and shall not be required to prove irreparable injury to such party or that such party does not have an adequate remedy at law with respect to any breach of this Agreement (each of which elements the parties admit). The parties hereto further agree and acknowledge that each and every obligation applicable to it contained in this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable against it and hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of their respective obligations hereunder. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies available under this Agreement or otherwise.

(d) Notices. All notices or other communications required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand, facsimile, electronic mail or postage prepaid mail (registered or certified) or nationally recognized overnight courier service and shall be deemed given when so delivered by hand, facsimile or electronic mail, or if mailed, three days after mailing (one Business Day in the case of overnight courier service), and shall be given to such party at the address or facsimile number specified for such party on Schedule I hereto. If any time period for giving notice or taking action hereunder expires on a day which is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday in the State of New York or the jurisdiction in which the Company’s principal office is located, the time period shall automatically be extended to the Business Day immediately following such Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday.

(e) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company shall not hereafter enter into any agreement with respect to its securities which is inconsistent with or violates the rights granted to the Holders of Registrable Securities in this Agreement.

(f) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, and may be delivered by means of facsimile or electronic transmission in portable document format, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and shall be binding upon the party who executed the same, but all of such counterparts shall constitute the same agreement.

(g) Descriptive Headings; Interpretation; No Strict Construction. The descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a substantive part of this Agreement. Whenever required by the context, any pronoun used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular forms of nouns, pronouns, and verbs shall include the plural and vice versa. Reference to any agreement, document, or instrument means such agreement, document, or instrument as amended or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, and, if applicable, hereof. The words “include,” “includes” or “including” in this Agreement shall be deemed to be followed by “without limitation.” The use of the words “or,” “either” or “any” shall not be exclusive. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. All references to laws, rules, regulations and forms in this Agreement shall be deemed to be references to such laws, rules, regulations and forms, as amended from time to time or, to the extent replaced, the comparable successor thereto in effect at the time. All references to agencies, self-regulatory organizations or governmental entities in this Agreement shall be deemed to be references to the comparable successors thereto from time to time.

(h) Delivery by Facsimile and Electronic Means. This Agreement, the agreements referred to herein, and each other agreement or instrument entered into in connection herewith or therewith or contemplated hereby or thereby, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine or other electronic means, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or other electronic means to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or other electronic means as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract and each such party forever waives any such defense.

(i) Arm’s Length Agreement. Each of the parties to this Agreement agrees and acknowledges that this Agreement has been negotiated in good faith, at arm’s length, and not by any means prohibited by law.

(j) Sophisticated Parties; Advice of Counsel. Each of the parties to this Agreement specifically acknowledges that (i) it is a knowledgeable, informed, sophisticated Person capable of understanding and evaluating the provisions set forth in this Agreement and (ii) it has been fully advised and represented by legal counsel of its own independent selection and has relied wholly upon its independent judgment and the advice of such counsel in negotiating and entering into this Agreement.

(k) Attorneys’ Fees. In the event of litigation or other proceedings in connection with or related to this Agreement, the prevailing party in such litigation or proceeding shall be entitled to reimbursement from the opposing party of all reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of investigation in connection with such litigation or proceeding.

(l) FWP Consent. No Holder shall use a Holder Free Writing Prospectus without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(m) Notification of Status. Each Holder shall provide written notice to the Company within ten Business Days from the first day on which the Holder no longer holds Registrable Securities.

(n) Governing Law. This Agreement and the exhibits and schedules hereto shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) to the extent such rules or provisions would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.

(o) Submission to Jurisdiction. Any action, suit or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby must be brought and determined in the Supreme Court of the State of New York (or, solely if such courts decline jurisdiction, in United States District Court for the Southern District of New York), and each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts for itself and with respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, in any such action, suit or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such, action, suit or proceeding in any such court or that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(p) Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH

OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVER, (C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 16(p).

(q) Complete Agreement. This Agreement and any certificates, documents, instruments and writings that are delivered pursuant hereto, represent the complete agreement between the parties hereto as to all matters covered hereby, and supersedes any prior agreements or understandings among the parties.

(r) Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

(s) Termination. The obligations of any Holder and of the Company with respect to such Holder, other than those obligations contained in Section 10, shall terminate as soon as both (i) such Holder no longer holds any Registrable Securities and (ii) such Holder is no longer an Affiliate of the Company or otherwise subject to the volume limitations set forth in Rule 144(e) promulgated under the Securities Act or any successor provision.

(t) Amendment and Restatement. The QPAC Registration Rights Agreement is hereby terminated and shall be of no further force and effect and this Agreement shall amend and restate in full the Novitex Registration Rights Agreement.
