(a) Loan.

Borrower has executed and delivered to Lender a senior subordinated secured promissory note in the form of note attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1, payable to the order of Lender in the principal amount of Twenty-Four Million Dollars ($24,000,000) (the “Note”). Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during the Draw Period, Lender shall make Loans to Borrower not exceeding Twenty-Four Million Dollars ($24,000,000) in the aggregate (the “Loan Amount Maximum”). When repaid, no Loan may be re-borrowed.

(ii) Initial Loan. The initial Loan (the “Initial Loan”) (which shall be in the principal amount of Nineteen Million Dollars ($19,000,000)) shall be advanced by Lender to Borrower upon the satisfaction of the conditions to closing set forth in Section 2.1 of this Agreement.

(iii) Subsequent Loan. From and after such time that Borrower has achieved the Second Draw Milestone, if Borrower so elects, Lender shall make one (1) additional Loan to Borrower (the “Subsequent Loan”) in the principal amount of up to Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000).

(iv) Procedures for Borrowing. If Borrower elects to borrow amounts pursuant to this Section 1.1, Borrower shall provide to Investment Manager (in addition to all other deliverables required pursuant to Section 2.1 and 2.2) a written notice (each a “Loan Advance Notice”) specifying the date on which the Loan shall be advanced (the “Loan Advance Date”), which Loan Advance Date must be no earlier than three (3) Business Days after Investment Manager’s receipt of the Loan Advance Notice.

1.2 Warrant. On the Closing Date, Borrower shall issue to Lender, as part of its inducement to make the Loan, a warrant (the “Warrant”) entitling Lender to purchase, at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, 388,500 shares of Borrower’s Common Stock, all of which will be issued and fully vested on the Closing Date. The Warrant shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1.2. Borrower and Lender, as a result of arm’s length bargaining, agree that:

(a) Neither Lender, Investment Manager nor any affiliated company of Lender or Investment Manager has rendered any services to Borrower in connection with this Agreement;

(b) The Warrant is not being issued as compensation; and

(c) All tax returns and other information return of each party relative to this Agreement and the Note and the Warrant issued pursuant hereto shall consistently reflect the matters agreed to in (a) and (b) above.

1.3 Note.

(a) Security. The Note and the Obligations of Borrower shall be secured in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Documents.

(b) Maturity. The outstanding principal amount of the Note issued under this Agreement, any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all other amounts then owing by Borrower to Lender or Investment Manager hereunder shall be due and payable in full on July 21, 2019 (the “Maturity Date”), unless such amounts become due and payable earlier in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, any Loan Document or otherwise.

(c) Interest. The outstanding principal amount of the Loans shall bear interest at the Interest Rate. Accrued interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Loans shall be payable in cash in arrears on each Quarterly Interest Payment Date. All accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable by Borrower to Lender upon any of the following: (i) the Maturity Date, (ii) a Liquidity Event, (iii) a Partial Liquidity Event, (iv) the date of any prepayment or (v) at such other time such amount becomes due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. All computations of interest payable hereunder shall be on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360)-day year consisting of twelve (12) thirty (30)-day months and actual days elapsed in the period of which such interest is payable. Notwithstanding the above, upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, at Lender’s sole option, the Interest Rate shall immediately increase by two percent (2.0%) per annum (the “Default Rate”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, prior to the Maturity Date, Borrower shall have the option to pay-in-kind (each, an “In Kind Payment”), rather than in cash, the interest otherwise payable on the Loans on each Quarterly Interest Payment Date in excess of three percent (3%) per annum, by sending Investment Manager, on or before the date such payment of interest is due, written notice of Borrower’s election to make an In Kind Payment. The amount of each In Kind Payment shall be automatically added to the principal balance of the Loan, and such sum shall accrue interest at the Interest Rate (subject to imposition of the Default Rate, if applicable). Upon the request of Investment Manager or Lender, Borrower shall immediately execute and deliver to Investment Manager a Replacement Note payable to Lender in the form of Exhibit 1.1B attached hereto which shall evidence the obligations of Borrower under the Loans as increased by the In Kind Payments. Investment Manager’s determination of the amount of In Kind Payments and the resulting principal balance of the Note shall be deemed conclusive absent manifest error on the part of Investment Manager.

1.4 Standby Fee. On each Quarterly Interest Payment Date during the Draw Period, and on the last day of the Draw Period, Borrower shall pay to Investment Manager, for the benefit of Lender, payable quarterly in arrears, a fully earned, non-refundable fee (the “Standby Fee”) in an amount equal to three quarters of one percent (0.75%) per annum of the unused portion of the Subsequent Loan. The amount of each Standby Fee shall be automatically added to the principal balance of the Loan, and such sum shall accrue interest at the Interest Rate (subject to imposition of the Default Rate, if applicable).

1.5 Facility Fee. On the Closing Date, Borrower shall pay to Investment Manager, for the benefit of Lender, a fully earned, non-refundable facility fee equal to Three Hundred Eighty Thousand Dollars ($380,000) and at the time the Subsequent Loan is requested, Borrower shall pay to Investment Manager a fully earned, non-refundable facility fee of two percent (2%) of the amount of the Subsequent Loan (collectively, the “Facility Fee”).

Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse Investment Manager and Lender for: (a) all costs, expenses and other charges in respect of any lien, tax and judgment searches performed by a service firm, to be chosen by Investment Manager in its sole discretion, in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and other collateral searches and filings; (b) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Investment Manager and Lender including the legal fees and disbursements of Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP, incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the other instruments and agreements entered into pursuant hereto and thereto; provided, that Borrower shall have no reimbursement obligation for any legal fees of Investment Manager and Lender in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents executed on the date hereof in excess of Sixty Thousand Dollars ($60,000); and provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, neither Investment Manager nor Lender shall be required to return the non-refundable advance from Borrower in the amount of Twenty Thousand Dollars ($20,000) unless the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Loan Documents are not consummated solely due to the decision of Investment Manager or Lender and then only to the extent of the excess (if any) of such advance over the expenses of Investment Manager and Lender entitled to reimbursement hereunder; (c) all reasonable out-of-

Except with respect to Multiemployer Plans, each Qualified Plan has been determined by the IRS to qualify under Section 401 of the IRC, the trusts created thereunder have been determined to be exempt from tax under the provisions of Section 501 of the IRC, and, to the knowledge of Borrower, nothing has occurred that would cause the loss of such qualification or tax exempt status. Each Plan is in material compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the IRC, including the timely filing of all reports required under the IRC or ERISA, including the statement required by 29 CFR Section 2520.104-23. Neither Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has failed to make any contribution or pay any amount due as required by either Section 412 of the IRC or Section 302 of ERISA or the terms of any such Plan. Neither Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a “prohibited transaction,” as defined in Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the IRC, in connection with any Plan, that would subject Borrower to a material tax on prohibited transactions imposed by Section 502(i) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the IRC.

(b) Except as set forth in Schedule 3.14: (i) no Title IV Plan has any Unfunded Pension Liability; (ii) no ERISA Event or event described in Section 4062(e) of ERISA with respect to any Title IV Plan has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur; (iii) there are no pending, or to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened claims (other than claims for benefits in the normal course), sanctions, actions or lawsuits, asserted or instituted against any Plan or any Person as fiduciary or sponsor of any Plan; (iv) neither Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred or reasonably expects to incur any liability as a result of a complete or partial withdrawal from a Multiemployer Plan; (v) within the last five years no Title IV Plan of Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate has been terminated, whether or not in a “standard termination” as that term is used in Section 4041(b)(1) of ERISA, nor has any Title IV Plan of Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate (determined at any time within the past five years) with Unfunded Pension Liabilities been transferred outside of the “controlled group” (within the meaning of Section 4001(a)(14) of ERISA) of Borrower or its ERISA Affiliate; (vi) except in the case of any ESOP, Stock of Borrower and its ERISA Affiliates makes up, in the aggregate, no more than ten percent (10%) of fair market value of the assets of any Plan measured on the basis of fair market value as of the latest valuation date of any Plan; and (vii) no liability under any Title IV Plan has been satisfied with the purchase of a contract from an insurance company that is not rated AAA by S&P or an equivalent rating by another nationally recognized rating agency.

3.15 Brokers. No broker or finder acting on behalf of Borrower or its Affiliates brought about the obtaining, making or closing of the Loan, and neither Borrower nor its Affiliates have any obligation to any Person in respect of any finder’s or brokerage fees in connection therewith.

3.16 Deposit and Disbursement Accounts. Schedule 3.16 lists all banks and other financial institutions at which Borrower maintains deposit or other accounts, and such Schedule correctly identifies the name and address of each depository, the name in which the account is held, a description of the purpose of the account, and the complete account number therefor.

3.17 Material Agreements; Customers and Suppliers.

(a) Schedule 3.17(a) sets forth a true and complete list of each Material Agreement to which Borrower is a party or is otherwise bound. Each Material Agreement is valid, binding and enforceable against Borrower and, to Borrower’s knowledge, the other parties thereto, and is in full force and effect in accordance with its terms, except as limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and (iii) state and federal securities laws with respect to rights to indemnification or contribution. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.17(a), Borrower is not in default or breach under any of the Material Agreements, nor, to the knowledge of Borrower, is any other party thereto in default or breach thereunder, nor are there facts or circumstances to the knowledge of Borrower which have occurred which, with or without the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute a material default or breach under any of the Material Agreements.

(b) The relationships of Borrower with its suppliers are commercial working relationships and no material customer or material supplier has canceled or otherwise terminated its relationship with Borrower. To Borrower’s knowledge, no material customer or material supplier intends to cancel or materially curtail its relationship with Borrower.

3.18 Insurance. Schedule 3.18 lists all insurance policies of any nature maintained by Borrower.

ARTICLE 4

AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

Borrower agrees that from and after the date hereof and until the Termination Date:

4.1 Compliance With Laws and Contractual Obligations. Borrower will (a) comply with and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply with (i) the requirements of all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority (including, without limitation, laws, rules, regulations and orders relating to taxes, employer and employee contributions, securities, employee retirement and welfare benefits, environmental protection matters and employee health and safety) as now in effect and which may be imposed in the future in all jurisdictions in which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is now doing business or may hereafter be doing business and (ii) the obligations, covenants and conditions contained in all Contractual Obligations of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries other than those laws, rules, regulations, orders and provisions of such Contractual Obligations the noncompliance with which would not be reasonably expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, and (b) maintain or obtain and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain or obtain all licenses, qualifications and permits now held or hereafter required to be held by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, for which the loss, suspension, revocation or failure to obtain or renew, would reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. This Section 4.1 shall not preclude Borrower or its Subsidiaries from contesting any taxes or other payments, if they are being diligently contested in good faith in a manner which stays enforcement thereof and if appropriate expense provisions have been recorded in conformity with GAAP, subject to Section 5.2.

4.2 Maintenance of Properties; Insurance. Borrower will maintain or cause to be maintained in good repair, working order and condition all material properties used in the business of Borrower and its Subsidiaries and will make or cause to be made all appropriate repairs, renewals and replacements thereof, ordinary wear and tear excepted. Borrower will maintain or cause to be maintained, with financially sound and reputable insurers, public liability and property damage insurance with respect to its business and properties and the business and properties of its Subsidiaries against loss or damage of the kinds customarily carried or maintained by corporations of established reputation engaged in similar businesses and in amounts reasonably acceptable to Investment Manager and will deliver evidence thereof to Investment Manager. Borrower will maintain business interruption insurance in at least the same amount as maintained on the Closing Date as evidenced in the insurance certificate delivered to

Investment Manager pursuant to Section 2.1(j). Borrower shall cause Investment Manager, pursuant to endorsements and/or assignments in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Investment Manager, to be named as lender’s loss payee in the case of casualty insurance, additional insured in the case of all liability insurance, and assignee in the case of all business interruption insurance, in each case for the benefit of Investment Manager and Lender. Borrower represents and warrants that it and each of its Subsidiaries currently maintains all material properties as set forth above and maintains all insurance described above. In the event Borrower fails to provide Investment Manager with evidence of the insurance coverage required by this Agreement, Investment Manager may purchase insurance at Borrower’s expense to protect Investment Manager’s interests in the Collateral. This insurance may, but need not, protect Borrower’s interests. The coverage purchased by Investment Manager may not pay any claim made by Borrower or any claim that is made against Borrower in connection with the Collateral. Borrower may, and Investment Manager shall at the written request of Borrower, later cancel any insurance purchased by Investment Manager, but only after providing Investment Manager with evidence that Borrower has obtained insurance as required by this Agreement. If Investment Manager purchases insurance for the Collateral, Borrower will be responsible for the costs of that insurance, including interest and other Charges imposed by Investment Manager in connection with the placement of the insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or expiration of the insurance. The costs of the insurance may be added to the Obligations. The costs of the insurance may be more than the cost of insurance Borrower is able to obtain on its own.

4.3 Inspection; Lender Meeting. Borrower shall permit any authorized representatives of Investment Manager to visit, audit and inspect any of Borrower’s properties and those of its Subsidiaries, including its and their financial and accounting records, and to make copies and take extracts therefrom, and to discuss its and their affairs, finances and business with its and their officers and certified public accountants, at such reasonable times during normal business hours and as often as may be reasonably requested, provided that, such visits, audits and inspections in excess of one (1) per year by the Investment Manager shall not be at the expense of Borrower, unless a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Representatives of Lender will, at Lender’s expense so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, be permitted to accompany representatives of Investment Manager during each visit, inspection and discussion referred to in the immediately preceding sentence. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, Borrower will participate and will cause its key management personnel and those of its Subsidiaries to participate in a meeting with Investment Manager and Lender at least once during each year, which meeting shall be held at such time and such place as may be reasonably requested by Investment Manager.

4.4 Organizational Existence. Except as otherwise permitted by Section 5.6, Borrower will and will cause its Subsidiaries to at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect its organizational existence and all rights and franchises material to its business.

4.5 Environmental Matters. Borrower shall and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to: (a) conduct its operations and keep and maintain its Real Estate in compliance with all material Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits; (b) implement any and all investigation, remediation, removal and response actions that are appropriate or necessary to

maintain the value and marketability of the Real Estate or to otherwise comply with Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits pertaining to the presence, generation, treatment, storage, use, disposal, transportation or Release of any Hazardous Material on, at, in, under, above, to, from or about any of its Real Estate; (c) notify Investment Manager promptly after Borrower or any Person within its control becomes aware of any violation of Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits or any Release on, at, in, under, above, to, from or about any Real Estate; and (d) promptly forward to Investment Manager a copy of any order, notice, request for information or any communication or report received by Borrower or any Person within its control in connection with any such violation or Release or any other matter relating to any Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits, in each case whether or not the Environmental Protection Agency or any Governmental Authority has taken or threatened any action in connection with any such violation, Release or other matter. If Investment Manager at any time has a reasonable basis to believe that there may be a violation of any Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits by Borrower or any Person under its control or any Environmental Liability arising thereunder, or a Release of Hazardous Materials on, at, in, under, above, to, from or about any of its Real Estate, then Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall, upon Investment Manager’s written request (i) cause the performance of such environmental audits including subsurface sampling of soil and groundwater, and preparation of such environmental reports, at Borrower’s expense, as Investment Manager may from time to time reasonably request, which shall be conducted by reputable environmental consulting firms reasonably acceptable to Investment Manager and shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Investment Manager, and (ii) permit Investment Manager or its representatives to have access to all Real Estate for the purpose of conducting such environmental audits and testing as Investment Manager deems appropriate, including subsurface sampling of soil and groundwater. Borrower shall reimburse Investment Manager for the costs of such audits and tests and the same will constitute a part of the Obligations secured hereunder.

4.6 Landlords’ Agreements, Mortgagee Agreements, Bailee Letters and Real Estate Purchases. Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a landlord’s agreement, mortgagee agreement or bailee letter, as applicable, from each lessor of leased property, mortgagee of owned property or bailee with respect to any warehouse, processor or converter facility or other location serving as the Company’s headquarters or where Collateral with an aggregate value of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) or more is stored or located, which agreement or letter shall contain a waiver or subordination of all Liens or claims that the landlord, mortgagee or bailee may assert against the Collateral at that location, and shall otherwise be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Investment Manager. After the Closing Date, no real property or warehouse space shall be leased by Borrower or its Subsidiaries and no Inventory shall be shipped to a processor or converter under arrangements established after the Closing Date unless Borrower shall have used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a landlord agreement or bailee letter, as appropriate, with respect to such location. Borrower shall and shall cause its Subsidiaries to timely and fully pay and perform their payment and other material obligations under all leases and other agreements with respect to each leased location or public warehouse where any Collateral is or may be located.

4.7 New Subsidiaries. Borrower shall (a) cause each Person upon its becoming a Domestic Subsidiary of Borrower (provided that this shall not be construed to constitute consent by Lender to any transaction not expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement), promptly

to guaranty the Obligations and to grant to Investment Manager, for the benefit of Investment Manager and Lender, a security interest in the real, personal and mixed property of such Person to secure the Obligations and (b) pledge, or cause to be pledged, to Investment Manager, for the benefit of Investment Manager and Lender, all of the Stock of such Subsidiary owned by Borrower to secure the Obligations (not to exceed 65% of the equity securities of any Subsidiary that is not a Domestic Subsidiary). The documentation for such guaranty, security and pledge shall be substantially similar to the Loan Documents executed concurrently herewith with such modifications as are reasonably requested by Investment Manager.

4.8 Board Observation Rights; Management Rights. Borrower shall allow one representative designated by Investment Manager and who is an officer, member, manager, partner, agent or employee of Investment Manager (the “Observer”) to attend and observe all meetings of the Board of Directors of Borrower (and all Board committees) in accordance with the Board Observer Letter. Borrower shall also provide Investment Manager with certain management rights as set forth in the Board Observer Letter.

4.9 Further Assurances.

(a) Borrower shall, from time to time, execute such guaranties, financing statements, documents, security agreements and reports as Investment Manager or Lender at any time may reasonably request to evidence, perfect or otherwise implement the guaranties and security for repayment of the Obligations contemplated by the Loan Documents.

(b) In the event Borrower acquires a fee interest in real property owned after the Closing Date, Borrower shall deliver to Investment Manager a fully executed mortgage or deed of trust over such real property in form and substance satisfactory to Investment Manager, together with such title insurance policies, surveys, appraisals, evidence of insurance, legal opinions, environmental assessments and other documents and certificates as shall be reasonably requested by Investment Manager.

(n) Board Materials. Borrower shall provide to Investment Manager all materials relating to and used in meetings and activities of Borrower’s Board of Directors in the normal course of business.

(o) 409a Valuation Reports. Borrower shall provide to Investment Manager promptly, but no later than five (5) days after completion, a copy of each 409a valuation report as to Borrower’s capital stock that Borrower completes after the Closing Date.

6.2 Accounting Terms; Utilization of GAAP for Purposes of Calculations Under Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, all accounting terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in conformity with GAAP. Financial Statements and other information furnished to Investment Manager pursuant to Section 6.1 or any other section (unless specifically indicated otherwise) shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP as in effect at the time of such preparation; provided that no Accounting Change shall affect the covenants, standards or terms in this Agreement; provided further that Borrower shall prepare footnotes to the Financial Statements required to be delivered hereunder that show the differences between the Financial Statements delivered (which reflect such Accounting Changes) and the basis for calculating financial covenant compliance (without reflecting such Accounting Changes). All such adjustments described in clause (c) of the definition of the term Accounting Changes resulting from expenditures made subsequent to the Closing Date (including capitalization of costs and expenses or payment of pre-Closing Date liabilities) shall be treated as expenses in the period the expenditures are made. In the event that any Accounting Change shall occur and such change results in a change in the method of calculation of financial covenants, standards or terms in this Agreement, then Borrower and Investment Manager agree to negotiate in good faith in order to amend such provisions of this Agreement so as to equitably reflect such Accounting Changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating the financial condition of Borrower shall be the same after such Accounting Changes as if such Accounting Changes had not been made. Until such time as such an amendment shall have been executed and delivered by Borrower, Investment Manager and Lender, all financial covenants, standards and terms in this Agreement shall continue to be calculated or construed as if such Accounting Changes had not occurred

6.3 Financial Covenants.

(a) Minimum Liquidity. Borrower shall maintain, at all times, a total balance of Cash in an account or accounts subject to a Control Agreement plus unrestricted availability under the Senior Line of Credit of not less than $3,000,000, to be certified to Investment Manager monthly. From and after the date on which Borrower provides Investment Manager with evidence satisfactory to Investment Manager that Borrower has achieved EBITDA of not less than $1,000,000 for two (2) consecutive Fiscal Quarters, this covenant will be permanently waived.

ARTICLE 8

ASSIGNMENT

8.1 Assignment.

(a) Subject to the terms of this Section 8.1, Lender may make an assignment, at any time or times, of the Loan Documents, Loan or any portion thereof or interest therein, including Lender’s rights, title, interests, remedies, powers or duties thereunder. Any assignment by Lender shall: (i) require (A) the consent of (1) Investment Manager (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed with respect to a Qualified Assignee) and (2) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower, if such assignment is, in the reasonable estimation of Lender, to a known direct competitor of Borrower or to a so-called “vulture” fund or “distressed debt” fund, and (B) the execution of an assignment agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to, and acknowledged by, Investment Manager); (ii) be conditioned on such assignee Lender representing to the assigning Lender and Investment Manager that it is purchasing the applicable Loans to be assigned to it for its own account, for investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution thereof; and (iii) after giving effect to any such partial assignment, the assignee Lender shall hold Loan the original principal amount of which is at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) and the assigning Lender shall continue to hold Loan the original principal amount of which is at least equal to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000). Investment Manager may in its sole and absolute discretion

permit any assignment by Lender to a Person or Persons that are not Qualified Assignees unless (x) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) such Person or Persons is in the reasonable estimation of Lender a known direct competitor of Borrower or to a so-called “vulture” fund or “distressed debt” fund. In the case of an assignment by Lender under this Section 8.1, the assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment, the same rights, benefits and obligations as Lender hereunder. The assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to the assigned portion of the Loan from and after the date of such assignment. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that any assignment shall give rise to a direct obligation of Borrower to the assignee and that the assignee shall be considered to be a “Lender.” In the event Investment Manager or Lender assigns or otherwise transfers all or any part of the Obligations, Investment Manager or Lender shall so notify Borrower and Borrower shall, upon the request of Investment Manager or Lender, execute new Notes in exchange for the Notes, if any, being assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.1(a), (a) Lender may at any time pledge the Obligations held by it and Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank, and (b) Lender may assign the Obligations held by it and Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to another investment fund managed by the same investment advisor or pledge such Obligations and rights to a trustee for the benefit of its investors; provided that such assignment does not result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under section 406 of ERISA.

(b) Lender may furnish any information concerning Borrower in the possession of Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants); provided that Lender shall obtain from assignees or participants confidentiality covenants substantially equivalent to those contained in Section 10.12.

ARTICLE 9

PROVISIONS RELATED TO INVESTMENT MANAGER

9.1 Appointment. Lender hereby designates and appoints Investment Manager as its agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes Investment Manager to execute and deliver the Collateral Documents and to take such action or to refrain from taking such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers as are set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Investment Manager is authorized and empowered to amend, modify, or waive any provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents on behalf of Lender subject to the requirement that Lender’s consent be obtained in certain instances as provided in this Article 9 and Section 10.2. The provisions of this Article 9 are solely for the benefit of Investment Manager and Lender and neither Borrower nor any other Person shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, Investment Manager shall act solely as agent of Lender and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrower. Investment Manager may perform any of its duties hereunder, or under the Loan Documents, by or through its agents or employees.

9.2 Reliance. Investment Manager shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any written or oral notices, statements, certificates, orders or other

documents or any telephone message or other communication (including any writing, telex, fax or telegram) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder. Investment Manager shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of legal counsel, independent accountants, and other experts selected by Investment Manager in its sole discretion.

9.3 Successor Investment Manager.

(a) Resignation. Investment Manager may resign from the performance of all its agency functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Borrower and Lender. Such resignation shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor Investment Manager of appointment pursuant to clause (b) below or as otherwise provided in clause (b) below.

(b) Appointment of Successor. Upon any such notice of resignation pursuant to clause (a) above, Lender shall appoint a successor Investment Manager which, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall be acceptable to Borrower (Borrower’s approval not to be unreasonably conditioned, delayed or withheld).

(c) Successor Investment Manager. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Investment Manager under the Loan Documents by a successor Investment Manager, such successor Investment Manager shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Investment Manager, and the retiring Investment Manager shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After any retiring Investment Manager’s resignation as Investment Manager, the provisions of this Article 9 shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it in its capacity as Investment Manager.

9.4 Collateral Matters.

(a) Release of Collateral. Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes Investment Manager, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by Investment Manager upon any Collateral (x) upon payment and satisfaction of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations to the extent no claims giving rise thereto have been asserted) or (y) constituting property being sold or disposed of if Borrower certifies to Investment Manager that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement (and Investment Manager may rely in good faith conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry).

(b) Confirmation of Authority; Execution of Releases. Without in any manner limiting Investment Manager’s authority to act without any specific or further authorization or consent by Lender (as set forth in Section 9.4(a)), Lender agrees to confirm in writing, upon request by Investment Manager or Borrower, the authority to release any Collateral conferred upon Investment Manager under clauses (x) and (y) of Section 9.4(a). Upon receipt by Investment Manager of any required confirmation from Lender of its authority to release any particular item or types of Collateral, and upon at least ten (10) Business Days’

prior written request by Borrower, Investment Manager shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by Lender to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to Investment Manager upon such Collateral; provided, however, that (x) Investment Manager shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in Investment Manager’s opinion, would expose Investment Manager to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (y) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens upon, all interests retained by Borrower, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

(c) Absence of Duty. Investment Manager shall have no obligation whatsoever to Lender or any other Person to assure that the property covered by the Collateral Documents exists or is owned by Borrower or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Liens granted to Investment Manager have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Investment Manager in this Section 9.4 or in any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the property covered by the Collateral Documents or any act, omission or event related thereto, Investment Manager may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its discretion, given Investment Manager’s own interest in property covered by the Collateral Documents and that Investment Manager shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to Lender, provided that Investment Manager shall exercise the same care which it would in dealing with loan for its own account.

9.5 Agency for Perfection. Investment Manager and Lender hereby appoint each other as agent for the purpose of perfecting the security interest in assets which, in accordance with the Code in any applicable jurisdiction, can be perfected by possession or control. Should Lender obtain possession or control of any such assets, Lender shall notify Investment Manager thereof, and, promptly upon Investment Manager’s request therefor, shall deliver such assets to Investment Manager or in accordance with Investment Manager’s instructions or transfer control to Investment Manager in accordance with Investment Manager’s instructions. Lender agrees that it will not have any right individually to enforce or seek to enforce any Collateral Document or to realize upon any collateral security for the Loans unless instructed to do so by Investment Manager in writing, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised only by Investment Manager.

9.6 Notice of Default. Investment Manager shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless Investment Manager shall have received written notice from Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. Investment Manager will use reasonable efforts to notify Lender of its receipt of any such notice, unless such notice is with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and Fees, in which case Investment Manager will notify Lender of its receipt of such notice. Investment Manager shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by Lender in accordance with Article 7. Unless and until Investment Manager has received any such request, Investment Manager may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interests of Lender.

9.7 Lender Actions Against Collateral. With respect to any action by Investment Manager to enforce the rights and remedies of Investment Manager and Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Lender hereby consents to the jurisdiction of the court in which such action is maintained, and agrees to deliver its Note to Investment Manager to the extent necessary to enforce the rights and remedies of Investment Manager for the benefit of Lender under the mortgages or similar Liens or encumbrances in accordance with the provisions hereof.

9.8 Payment; Information; Actions in Concert.

(a) Return of Payments.

(i) If Investment Manager pays an amount to Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Investment Manager from Borrower and such related payment is not received by Investment Manager, then Investment Manager will be entitled to recover such amount from Lender on demand without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

(ii) If Investment Manager determines at any time that any amount received by Investment Manager under this Agreement must be returned to Borrower or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Investment Manager will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to Lender. In addition, Lender will repay to Investment Manager on demand any portion of such amount that Investment Manager has distributed to Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Investment Manager is required to pay to Borrower or such other Person, without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

(b) Dissemination of Information. Investment Manager shall use reasonable efforts to provide Lender with any notice of Default or Event of Default received by Investment Manager from, or delivered by Investment Manager to, Borrower, with notice of any Event of Default of which Investment Manager has actually become aware and with notice of any action taken by Investment Manager following any Event of Default; provided, that Investment Manager shall not be liable to Lender for any failure to do so.

10.4 Obligations.

(a) Obligations Absolute; Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. The payment and performance by Borrower of all of the Obligations shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any defense or rights of set-off, recoupment or counterclaim Borrower might otherwise have against Investment Manager or Lender, and Borrower shall pay and perform all of the Obligations, free of any deductions and without abatement, diminution, recoupment, counterclaim or set-off. Until payment in full of all of the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnification obligations), Borrower shall (a) not suspend or discontinue any payments required pursuant to the Note, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and (b) perform and observe all of the other terms and provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents. No failure or delay on the part of Investment Manager or Lender to exercise, nor any partial exercise of, any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Documents shall impair such power, right, or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default. All rights and remedies existing hereunder or under any other Loan Document are cumulative to and not exclusive of any rights or remedies otherwise available.

10.5 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. Neither Investment Manager nor Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that Borrower makes payment(s) or Investment Manager enforces its Liens or Investment Manager or Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment(s) or the proceeds of such enforcement or set-off is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, or required to be repaid by anyone, then to the extent of such recovery, the Obligations or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or set off had not occurred.

10.6 Severability. The invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability in any jurisdiction of any provision under the Loan Documents shall not affect or impair the remaining provisions in the Loan Documents.

10.7 Headings. Section and subsection headings are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purposes or be given substantive effect.

10.8 Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS WHICH DOES NOT EXPRESSLY SET FORTH APPLICABLE LAW SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES.

10.9 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding on and shall inure to the benefit of Borrower, Investment Manager, Lender and their respective successors and assigns (including, in the case of Borrower, a debtor-in-possession on behalf of such Borrower), except as otherwise provided herein or therein. Borrower may not assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise convey its rights, benefits, obligations or duties hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents without the prior express written consent of Investment Manager and Lender. Any such purported assignment, transfer, hypothecation or other conveyance by Borrower without the prior express written consent of Investment Manager and Lender shall be void. The terms and provisions of this Agreement are for the purpose of defining the relative rights and obligations of Borrower, Investment Manager and Lender with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and no Person shall be a third party beneficiary of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

10.10 No Fiduciary Relationship; Limited Liability. No provision in the Loan Documents and no course of dealing between the parties shall be deemed to create any fiduciary duty owing to Borrower by Investment Manager or Lender. Borrower agrees that neither Investment Manager nor Lender shall have liability to Borrower (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless and to the extent that it is determined that such losses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party from which recovery is sought as determined by a final non-appealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction. Neither Investment Manager nor Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees not to xxx for, any special, indirect or consequential damages suffered by Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

The confidentiality provisions contained in this Section 10.12 shall not apply to disclosures (i) required to be made by Investment Manager or Lender to any regulatory or governmental agency or pursuant to legal process or (ii) consisting of general portfolio information that does not identify Borrower.

ARTICLE 1

EXERCISE

1.1 Method of Exercise. Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering the original of this Warrant together with a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached as Appendix 1 to the principal office of the Company. Unless Holder is exercising the conversion right set forth in Article 1.2, Holder shall also deliver to the Company either, at Holder’s option in its sole discretion, (a) a check, wire transfer (to an account designated by the Company), or other form of payment acceptable to the Company for the aggregate Warrant Price for the Shares being purchased, or (b) confirmation that Holder has reduced the outstanding principal of the Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement) in an amount equal the aggregate Warrant Price.

1.2 Conversion Right; Cashless Exercise. In lieu of exercising this Warrant as specified in Article 1.1 and payment of the aggregate Warrant Price in the manner as specified in

Article 1.1 above, Holder may from time to time convert this Warrant, in whole or in part, into a number of Shares determined by dividing (a) the aggregate fair market value of the Shares or other securities otherwise issuable upon exercise of this Warrant minus the aggregate Warrant Price of such Shares by (b) the fair market value of one Share. The fair market value of the Shares shall be determined pursuant to Article 1.3.

1.3 Fair Market Value. If the Company’s common stock is traded in a public market and the Shares are common stock, the fair market value of a Share shall be the closing price of a share of the Company’s common stock reported for the business day immediately before Holder delivers this Warrant together with its Notice of Exercise to the Company (or in the instance where the Warrant is exercised immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”), the “price to public” per share price specified in the final prospectus relating to such offering). If the Company’s common stock is traded in a public market and the Shares are preferred stock, the fair market value of a Share shall be the closing price of a share of the Company’s common stock reported for the business day immediately before Holder delivers this Warrant together with its Notice of Exercise to the Company (or, in the instance where the Warrant is exercised immediately prior to the effectiveness of the IPO, the initial “price to public” per share price specified in the final prospectus relating to such offering), in both cases, multiplied by the number of shares of the Company’s common stock into which a Share is convertible. If the Company’s common stock is not traded in a public market, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine fair market value in its reasonable good faith judgment.

1.4 Delivery of Certificate and New Warrant. Promptly after Holder exercises or converts this Warrant and, if applicable, the Company receives payment of the aggregate Warrant Price, the Company shall deliver to Holder certificates for the Shares acquired and, if this Warrant has not been fully exercised or converted and has not expired, a new warrant of like tenor representing the Shares not so acquired.

1.5 Replacement of Warrants. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor.

1.6 Treatment of Warrant Upon Acquisition of Company.

1.6.1 Acquisition. For the purpose of this Warrant, “Acquisition” means any sale, license, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any reorganization, consolidation, merger or sale of outstanding equity securities of the Company where the holders of the Company’s outstanding voting equity securities as of immediately before the transaction beneficially own less than a majority of the outstanding voting equity securities of the surviving or successor entity as of immediately after the transaction.

1.6.2 Treatment of Warrant at Acquisition. Upon the written request of the Company, Holder agrees that, in the event of an Acquisition or an “arms length” sale of all or

substantially all of the Company’s assets (and only its assets) to a third party that is not an Affiliate (as defined below) of the Company (a “True Asset Sale”), either (a) Holder shall exercise its conversion or purchase right under this Warrant and such exercise will be deemed effective immediately prior to the consummation of such Acquisition or True Asset Sale, as applicable, or (b) if Holder elects not to exercise the Warrant, this Warrant will be deemed to be converted pursuant to Article 1.2 immediately prior to such Acquisition or True Asset Sale, as applicable. The Company shall provide the Holder with written notice of its request relating to the foregoing (together with such reasonable information as the Holder may request in connection with such contemplated Acquisition giving rise to such notice), which is to be delivered to Holder not less than five (5) days prior to the closing of the proposed Acquisition or True Asset Sale, as applicable.

As used in this Article 1.6, “Affiliate” shall mean any person or entity that owns or controls directly or indirectly ten percent (10%) or more of the stock of Company, any person or entity that controls or is controlled by or is under common control with such persons or entities, and each of such person’s or entity’s officers, directors, joint venturers or partners, as applicable.

1.7 Certain Agreements. Upon any exercise or conversion of this Warrant, the Company may require as a condition to the issuance of the Shares that Holder become a party to, by execution and delivery to the Company of a counterpart signature page, joinder agreement, instrument of accession or similar instrument, the Company’s Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement dated September 18, 2014, as amended and in effect from time to time (the “Investors’ Rights Agreement”), the Company’s Amended and Restated Voting Agreement dated September 18, 2014, as amended and in effect from time to time, the Company’s Amended and Restated Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement dated September 18, 2014, as amended and in effect from time to time, and each other agreement entered into among the Company and the holders of the outstanding shares of the Class, solely with respect to the Shares issued upon such exercise or conversion (and the shares of Common Stock, if any, issued upon conversion of such Shares), solely to the extent that a majority of the holders of outstanding shares of the Class are then parties thereto, and solely to the extent each such agreement is then by its terms in force and effect.

1.8 Market Stand-Off. The Holder hereby agrees that, if so requested by the Company or any representative of the underwriters in connection with the IPO, the Holder shall not sell, offer, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any securities (including warrants) of the Company, enter into a transaction which would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any economic consequences of ownership of such securities, whether any such aforementioned transaction is to be settled by delivery of the securities or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, or publicly disclose the intention to make any such offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any such transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement, without, in each case, written consent of the managing underwriter(s), during the period requested in writing by the managing underwriter and agreed to in writing by the Company (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) following the effective date of the Company’s IPO registration statement (the “Market Standoff Period”); provided, that all officers and directors of the Company, and all holders of one percent (1%) or more of the Company’s common stock (on an as-exercised, as-converted basis) enter into similar agreements; provided, further, that if the

Company or managing underwriter(s) release any such officer, director or stockholder from his or its obligations under such agreement prior to the expiration thereof, Holder shall automatically be released from its obligations under this Article 1.8 and its agreement with the Company and/or underwriter(s) to the same extent. The Company may impose stop transfer instructions with respect to securities subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of such Market Standoff Period.

ARTICLE 2

ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SHARES

2.1 Stock Dividends, Splits, Etc. If the Company declares or pays a dividend on the outstanding shares of the Class payable in common stock or other securities, then upon exercise of this Warrant, for each Share acquired, Holder shall receive, without cost to Holder, the total number and kind of securities to which Holder would have been entitled had Holder owned the Shares of record as of the date the dividend occurred. If the Company subdivides the outstanding shares of the Class by reclassification or otherwise into a greater number of shares, the number of Shares purchasable hereunder shall be proportionately increased and the Warrant Price shall be proportionately decreased. If the outstanding shares of the Class are combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares, the Warrant Price shall be proportionately increased and the number of Shares shall be proportionately decreased.

2.2 Reclassification, Exchange, Combinations or Substitution. Upon any reclassification, exchange, substitution, or other event that results in a change of the number and/or class of the securities issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, the number and kind of securities and property that Holder would have received for the Shares if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before such reclassification, exchange, substitution, or other event. Such an event shall include, without limitation, any automatic conversion of the outstanding or issuable securities of the Company of the same class or series as the Shares to common stock pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation. The Company or its successor shall promptly issue to Holder a certificate pursuant to Article 2.6 hereof setting forth the number, class and series or other designation of such new securities or other property issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant as a result of such reclassification, exchange, substitution or other event. The provisions of this Article 2.2 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges, substitutions, or other events.

2.3 Adjustments for Diluting Issuances. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares shall be subject to adjustment, from time to time in the manner set forth in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation as if the Shares were issued and outstanding on and as of the date of any such required adjustment. The provisions set forth for the Class in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation relating to the above in effect as of the Issue Date may not be amended, modified or waived, without the prior written consent of Holder unless such amendment, modification or waiver affects the rights associated with the Shares in the same manner as such amendment, modification or waiver affects the rights associated with all other shares of the Class.

2.4 No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through a reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue, or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed under this Warrant by the Company, but shall at all times in good faith assist in carrying out of all the provisions of this Article 2 and in taking all such action as may be necessary or appropriate to protect Holder’s rights under this Article against impairment; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to take any such action that shall change the rights, designations, limitations, restrictions, and obligations for its Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to the extent all holders of its Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are similarly affected.

2.5 Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issuable upon exercise or conversion of the Warrant and the number of Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share. If a fractional share interest arises upon any exercise or conversion of the Warrant, the Company shall eliminate such fractional share interest by paying Holder the amount computed by multiplying the fractional interest by the fair market value of a full Share.

2.6 Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon each adjustment of the Warrant Price, Class and/or number of Shares, the Company shall promptly notify Holder in writing, and, at the Company’s expense, promptly compute such adjustment, and furnish Holder with a certificate of its Chief Financial Officer setting forth such adjustment and the facts upon which such adjustment is based. The Company shall, upon written request, furnish Holder a certificate setting forth the Warrant Price, Class and number of Shares in effect upon the date thereof and the series of adjustments leading to such Warrant Price, Class and number of Shares.

ARTICLE 3

REPRESENTATIONS AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY

3.1 Representations and Warranties. The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Holder as follows:

(a) The initial Warrant Price referenced on the first page of this Warrant is not greater than the fair market value of a share of the Company’s Common Stock set forth in the 409a valuation of the Company’s stock completed most recently prior to the Issue Date.

(b) All Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase right represented by this Warrant, and all securities, if any, issuable upon conversion of the Shares, shall, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and free of any liens and encumbrances except for restrictions on transfer provided for herein or under applicable federal and state securities laws.

3.2 Notice of Certain Events. If the Company proposes at any time (a) to declare any dividend or distribution upon the outstanding shares of the Class, whether in cash, property, stock, or other securities and whether or not a regular cash dividend; or (b) to effect an Acquisition or to liquidate, dissolve or wind up, then, in connection with each such event, the Company shall give Holder: (1) at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice of the date on which a

record will be taken for such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights (and specifying the date on which the holders of shares of the Class will be entitled thereto) or for determining rights to vote, if any, in respect of the matters referred to in (b) above; and (2) in the case of the matters referred to in (b) above, at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice of the date when the same will take place (and specifying the date on which the holders of shares of the Class will be entitled to exchange their shares for the securities or other property deliverable upon the occurrence of such event).

3.3 Registration Under Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company agrees that upon the Holder’s execution and delivery of the Investors’ Rights Agreement or exercise or conversion of the Warrant, the Shares or, if the Shares are convertible into common stock of the Company, such common stock, shall have certain incidental, or “Piggyback,” and S-3 registration rights pursuant to and as set forth in the Investors’ Rights Agreement, as then in effect.

3.4 No Shareholder Rights. Except as provided in this Warrant, Holder will not have any rights as a shareholder of the Company until the exercise of this Warrant.

REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OF THE HOLDER

The Holder represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

4.1 Purchase for Own Account. This Warrant and the securities to be acquired upon exercise of this Warrant by Holder will be acquired for investment for Holder’s account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the public resale or distribution within the meaning of the Act. Holder also represents that it has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring this Warrant or the Shares.

4.2 Disclosure of Information. Holder has received or has had full access to all the information it considers necessary or appropriate to make an informed investment decision with respect to the acquisition of this Warrant and its underlying securities. Holder further has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of this Warrant and its underlying securities and to obtain additional information (to the extent the Company possessed such information or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense) necessary to verify any information furnished to Holder or to which Holder has access.

4.3 Investment Experience. Holder understands that the purchase of this Warrant and its underlying securities involves substantial risk. Holder has experience as an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that Holder can bear the economic risk of such Holder’s investment in this Warrant and its underlying securities and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in this Warrant and its underlying securities and/or has a preexisting personal or business relationship with the Company and certain of its

officers, directors or controlling persons of a nature and duration that enables Holder to be aware of the character, business acumen and financial circumstances of such persons.

4.4 Accredited Investor Status. Holder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D promulgated under the Act.

4.5 The Act. Holder understands that this Warrant and the Shares issuable upon exercise or conversion hereof have not been registered under the Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the Holder’s investment intent as expressed herein. Holder understands that this Warrant and the Shares issued upon any exercise or conversion hereof must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Act and qualified under applicable state securities laws, or unless exemption from such registration and qualification are otherwise available.

Subject to the provisions of Article 5.3 and upon providing the Company with written notice, Holder may transfer all or part of this Warrant or the Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (or the securities issuable directly or indirectly, upon conversion of the Shares, if any) to any transferee, provided, however, in connection with any such transfer, Holder will give the Company notice of the portion of the Warrant being transferred with the name, address and taxpayer identification number of the transferee and Holder will surrender this Warrant to the Company for reissuance to the transferee(s) (and Holder if applicable).
