Each member of the Group shall be responsible for the accuracy and completeness of his or its own disclosure therein, and is not responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the information concerning the other members, unless such member knows or has reason to know that such information is inaccurate.

2. So long as this agreement is in effect, each of the undersigned shall provide written notice to Xxxxxx Frome Xxxxxxx LLP (“Xxxxxx”) and Xx.

For purposes of this agreement, the term “beneficial ownership” shall have the meaning of such term set forth in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act.

3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as this agreement is in effect, each of the Nominees agrees to provide Camac advance written notice prior to effecting any purchase, sale, acquisition or disposition of any securities of the Company which he has, or would have, direct or indirect beneficial ownership so that Camac has an opportunity to review the potential implications of any such transaction in the securities of the Company and pre-clear any such potential transaction in the securities of the Company by any such Nominee. Each of the Nominees agrees that he shall not undertake or effect any purchase, sale, acquisition or disposition of any securities of the Company without the prior written consent of Camac.

4. Each of the undersigned agrees to form the Group for the purpose of (i) soliciting proxies for the election of certain persons nominated for election to the Board at the Annual Meeting (including those nominated by Xxxxx), (ii) taking such other actions as the parties deem advisable and (iii) taking all other action necessary or advisable to achieve the foregoing.

5. Camac shall have the right to pre-approve all expenses incurred in connection with the Group’s activities and agrees to pay directly all such pre-approved expenses.

6. Each of the undersigned agrees that any filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, press release, Company communication or shareholder communication proposed to be made or issued by the Group or any member of the Group in connection with the Group’s activities set forth in Section 4 shall be as directed by Xxxxx.

7. The relationship of the parties hereto shall be limited to carrying on the business of the Group in accordance with the terms of this agreement. Such relationship shall be construed and deemed to be for the sole and limited purpose of carrying on such business as described herein. Nothing herein shall be construed to authorize any party to act as an agent for any other party, or to create a joint venture or partnership, or to constitute an indemnification. Except as provided in Section 2 and Section 3, nothing herein shall restrict any party’s right to purchase or sell securities of the Company, as he or it deems appropriate, in his or its sole discretion, provided that all such transactions are made in compliance with all applicable securities laws and the provisions of this agreement.

8. This agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same instrument, which may be sufficiently evidenced by one counterpart.

9. This agreement is governed by and will be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. In the event of any dispute arising out of the provisions of this agreement or their investment in the Company, the parties hereto consent and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York located in the Borough of Manhattan or the courts of the State of New York located in the County of New York.

10. The parties’ rights and obligations under this agreement (other than the rights and obligations set forth in Section 5 and Section 9, which shall survive any termination of this agreement) shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) the conclusion of the Annual Meeting or (ii) Camac providing written notice of termination to the other parties; provided, however, either Nominee can terminate, with respect to himself, his rights and obligations under this agreement and will no longer be deemed a member of the Group by providing written notice to Camac of withdrawal of his consent to serve as a Nominee.

11. Each party acknowledges that Xxxxxx shall act as counsel for both the Group and Camac relating to their investment in the Company.

12. Each party hereby waives the application of any law, regulation, holding, or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

13. Each of the undersigned parties hereby agrees that this agreement shall be filed as an exhibit to a Schedule 13D pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k)(1)(iii) under the Exchange Act.
