4.4 Restricted Shares. Intrexon acknowledges that the shares when issued shall be restricted securities and must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or the Company receives an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required. Intrexon is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act which permit limited resale of stock purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including, among other things, the existence of a public market for the stock, the availability of certain current public information about the Company, the resale occurring not less than one year after a party has purchased and paid for the stock to be sold, the sale being through a “broker’s transaction” or a transaction directly with a “market maker” and the number of shares of the stock being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations. Intrexon further acknowledges and understands that the Company may not be satisfying the current public information requirement of Rule 144 at the time Intrexon wishes to sell the shares and, if so, Intrexon would be precluded from selling the shares under Rule 144 even if the one year minimum holding period has been satisfied.

4.7 Brokers. Intrexon shall indemnify the Company from and against any broker’s, finder’s or agent’s fees for which Intrexon is responsible.

SECTION 5. Registration Rights.

5.1 Piggyback Registration Rights. If, at any time the Company proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act, other than (i) any amendment to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Commission File Number 333-184762) or (ii) a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans or Rule 145 transactions, with respect to an underwritten offering for its own account of any class of securities of the Company (a “Registration Statement”), then each such time, the Company shall give written notice of such intention to file a Registration Statement (a “Piggyback Notice”) to Intrexon at least five (5) days before the anticipated filing date. The Piggyback Notice shall describe the number of shares to be registered and the intended method of distribution and offer Intrexon the opportunity to register pursuant to such Registration Statement such shares held by Intrexon (the “Registrable Shares”) as Intrexon may request in writing to the Company within five (5) days after the date Intrexon first received the Piggyback Notice (a “Piggyback Registration”). The Piggyback Registration rights shall be subject ratably to potential underwriter’s limitations set forth herein. The Company shall take all reasonable steps to include in the Registration Statement the Registrable Shares which the Company has been so requested to register by Intrexon. The Company shall be entitled to suspend or withdraw a Registration Statement prior to its becoming effective. If the managing underwriter with respect to such an offering advises the Company in writing that the inclusion of all or any portion of the Registrable Shares which Intrexon has requested to be included in the Registration Statement would materially jeopardize the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the underwriting only that number of Registrable Shares which the underwriter advises the Company in writing may be sold without materially jeopardizing the offering. If Intrexon disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting may elect to withdraw its Registrable Shares from it by written notice to the Company and the underwriter. Intrexon also agrees to be subject to any lock-up agreements reasonably requested by a managing underwriter so long as the Company shares held by the Company’s largest shareholder is also subject to a similar lock-up agreement. The Company shall not grant registration rights to any other holder or prospective holder of its securities in connection with a private placement of the Company’s equity securities unless, (i) all shares held by Intrexon are, at the time of such private placement, included on a Registration Statement, or (ii) the Company agrees, in connection with such private placement, to grant Intrexon the right to include on the Registration Statement a number of Intrexon’s Registrable Shares equal to one half of the number of shares to be registered on behalf of the other holder or prospective holder.

5.2 Registration Expenses. All reasonable fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this Agreement by the Company, except as and to the extent specified in this Section 5, shall be borne by the Company whether or not the Registration Statement is filed or becomes effective and whether or not any shares are sold pursuant to the Registration Statement. The fees and expenses referred to in the foregoing sentence shall include, without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including, without limitation, fees and expenses (A) with respect to filings required to be made with each securities exchange or market on which shares are listed, (B) with respect to filings required to be made with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority and (C) in compliance with state securities or Blue Sky laws, (ii) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, (iii) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, (iv) Securities Act liability insurance, if the Company so desires such insurance, and (v) fees and expenses of all other persons or entities retained by the Company in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Section 5, including, without limitation, the Company’s independent public accountants. In no event shall the Company be responsible for any broker or similar commissions incurred by Intrexon in connection with the sale of the Registrable Shares.

5.4 Indemnification by Intrexon. Intrexon shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or supplement thereto, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in or omitted from any information regarding Intrexon furnished in writing to the Company by Intrexon expressly for use in therein, and that such information was reasonably relied upon by the Company for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to Intrexon or Intrexon’s proposed method of distribution of shares and was furnished in writing by Intrexon expressly for use therein.

7.3 Approval. In each case where the Company determines that the approval of Company investors or any exchange or other listing upon which the Common Stock may be listed is required for the issuance of Common Stock to Intrexon, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to secure such approval as promptly as possible. In the event, notwithstanding the foregoing obligation, the Company is unable to secure the approval with respect to the issuance of any shares to be issued hereunder, the Company shall negotiate the terms of an alternate form of consideration of equivalent value to such unissued shares.

7.4 No Poison Pill. The Company will not adopt any stockholder rights plan, “poison pill” or similar arrangement, or adopt any anti-takeover provisions under its Charter documents, that would trigger any right, obligation or event as a result of the issuance of the shares hereunder to Intrexon.

SECTION 8. Equity Purchase Participation Right

8.1 Intrexon Equity Purchase Participation Right. Prior to the first date on which Intrexon shall hold less than 5% of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding, Intrexon shall be entitled to, at its election, participate in each Qualified Financing (as hereinafter defined) conducted by the Company and may purchase as part of, or in connection with, such Qualified Financing a portion of the Common Stock or other of the Company’s securities issued and sold by the Company in the Qualified Financing (excluding the securities sold pursuant to this Section 8.1) equal to the percentage of the Company’s outstanding securities held by Intrexon as of the date of such Qualified Financing, on an as-converted-to-common stock basis (collectively, the “Equity Purchase Participation Right”). For the purposes of this Section 8, a “Qualified Financing” shall mean a sale by the Company of Common Stock, or equity securities convertible into Common Stock, in a public or private offering, raising gross cash proceeds of at least $1,000,000 where the shares sold are either registered under the Securities Act on issuance, or the Company agrees to register such shares following the issuance of such shares. The price per share paid by Intrexon in any such Qualified Financing shall be the same as that paid by the other investors in such Qualified Financing, and upon the exercise of the Equity Purchase Participation Right Intrexon shall receive securities of the same type and with the same rights, preferences and privileges as the other investors in such Qualified Financing, including, for example, any warrant coverage, subject to the execution by Intrexon of the investment documents entered into by the other investors in the Qualified Financing.

Upon such election, and subject to Section 8.2(c), the Company shall permit Intrexon to participate in such offering in the amount elected by Intrexon in accordance with the preceding sentence.

(c) If counsel to the Company or counsel to any underwriter in a public offering that is a Qualified Financing advises the Company that Intrexon’s inclusion is not permissible under and in compliance with applicable securities laws (including without limitation Section 6 of the Securities Act), the offering and sale of securities to Intrexon pursuant to this Section 8 shall be made by the Company in a concurrent private placement and not in such public offering. In any such private placement: (i) the offer of the securities in such private placement shall be made on the same terms and conditions as the offer of the securities in the public offering, (ii) the closing of the private placement shall occur concurrently with the closing of the Qualified Financing, and (iii) the Company shall provide registration rights similar to those provided in Section 5.1 of this Agreement with respect to the securities purchased in the private placement.
