Pursuant to Section 2.2(a) of the Purchase Agreement and in satisfaction of a condition of the Company’s obligations under the Purchase Agreement, the undersigned irrevocably agrees with the Company that, from the date hereof until thirtieth (30th) day after the effective date of a Capital Event (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (such period, the “Restriction Period”) the undersigned will not offer, sell, contract to sell, hypothecate, pledge or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction which is designed to, or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition (whether by actual disposition or effective economic disposition due to cash settlement or otherwise) by the undersigned or any Affiliate of the undersigned or any person in privity with the undersigned or any Affiliate of the undersigned), directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), with respect to, any shares of Common Stock of the Company or securities convertible, exchangeable or exercisable into, shares of Common Stock of the Company beneficially owned, held or hereafter acquired by the undersigned (the “Securities”). Beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the undersigned may, during the Restriction Period, transfer any of the Securities:
| (i) | as a bona fide gift or gifts or charitable contribution(s), |
| (ii) | to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned, |
| (iii) | if the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other business entity (1) to another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other business entity that is a direct or indirect affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) or subsidiary of the undersigned or that controls, is controlled by, or under common control with the undersigned, (2) as distributions of Securities to partners, subsidiaries, affiliates, limited liability company members or stockholders of the undersigned, holders of similar equity interests in the undersigned and any investment fund or affiliated entity or (3) as a transfer or distribution to any employee of the undersigned or an entity listed in clause (1) above or the undersigned, |
| (iv) | if the undersigned is a trust, to the beneficiary of such trust, |
| (v) | by testate succession or intestate succession, |
| (vi) | to any immediate family member, any investment fund, family partnership, family limited liability company or other entity controlled or managed by the undersigned, |
| (vii) | to a nominee or custodian of a person or entity to whom a disposition or transfer would be permissible under clauses (i) through (vi), |
| (viii) | to the Company in a transaction exempt from Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act upon a vesting event of the Securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase Common Stock on a “cashless” or “net exercise” basis or to cover tax withholding obligations of the undersigned in connection with such vesting or exercise (but for the avoidance of doubt, excluding all manners of exercise that would involve a sale in the open market of any securities relating to such options or warrants, whether to cover the applicable aggregate exercise price, withholding tax obligations or otherwise); provided that any filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act in connection with such transfer shall indicate, to the extent permitted by such Section and the related rules and regulations, the reason for such disposition and that such transfer of Securities was solely to the Company, and provided, further that any Securities issued upon such exercise shall be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Letter Agreement, |
| (ix) | to the Company in connection with the termination of employment or other termination of a service provider whereby the Company has the option to repurchase such shares or securities, |

| (xi) | pursuant to transfers in response to a bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction made to or with all holders of the Company’s capital stock involving a “change of control” (as defined below) of the Company that has been approved by the board of directors of the Company, provided that in the event that such tender offer, merger, consolidation or other such transaction is not completed, the Securities shall remain subject to the restrictions contained in this Letter Agreement. For purposes of this clause (xi), “change of control” means the consummation of any bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction the result of which is that any “person” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), or group of persons, other than the Company, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act) of more than 50% of the total voting power of the voting stock of the Company (or surviving entity), or all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or |
| (xii) | pursuant to a domestic relations order or order of a court or regulatory agency; |

provided, in the case of clauses (i)-(vii), that (A) such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value and (B) the transferee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by the terms of this Letter Agreement; and provided, further, in the case of clause (xii) the transferee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by the terms of this Letter Agreement, and in the case of clauses (i), (ii), (iv)-(vii) and (ix), no filing by any party (donor, donee, transferor or transferee) under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act shall be required or shall be made voluntarily in connection with such transfer reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of Securities during the Restriction Period. For purposes of this Agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage, domestic partnership or adoption, not more remote than first cousin, and shall include any former spouse.
In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Letter Agreement shall not restrict the delivery of shares of Common Stock to the undersigned upon (i) exercise any options granted under any employee benefit plan of the Company; provided that any shares of Common Stock or Securities acquired in connection with any such exercise will be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Letter Agreement, or (ii) the exercise of warrants or any other security convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock; provided that such shares of Common Stock delivered to the undersigned in connection with such exercise or conversion are subject to the restrictions set forth in this Letter Agreement.

The undersigned acknowledges that the execution, delivery and performance of this Letter Agreement is a material inducement to each Purchaser to complete the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and the Company shall be entitled to specific performance of the undersigned’s obligations hereunder. The undersigned hereby represents that the undersigned has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Letter Agreement, that the undersigned has received adequate consideration therefor and that the undersigned will indirectly benefit from the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.
This Letter Agreement may not be amended or otherwise modified in any respect without the written consent of each of the Company and the undersigned. This Letter Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to the principles of conflict of laws.

The undersigned hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by receiving a copy thereof sent to the Company at the address in effect for notices to it under the Purchase Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. The undersigned hereby waives any right to a trial by jury. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. The undersigned agrees and understands that this Letter Agreement does not intend to create any relationship between the undersigned and any Purchaser and that no Purchaser is entitled to cast any votes on the matters herein contemplated and that no issuance or sale of the Securities is created or intended by virtue of this Letter Agreement.
This Letter Agreement shall be binding on successors and assigns of the undersigned with respect to the Securities and any such successor or assign shall enter into a similar agreement for the benefit of the Purchasers.
