Subject to any Commission comments, such Registration Statement shall include a customary plan of distribution; provided, however, that no Paragon Stockholder shall be named as an “underwriter” in the Registration Statement without such Paragon Stockholder’s prior written consent. Such Registration Statement also shall cover, to the extent allowable under the 1933 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder (including Rule 416), such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions with respect to the Registrable Securities. The Registration Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each request for acceleration of effectiveness thereof) shall be provided in accordance with Section 3(c) to the Paragon Stockholders and their counsel prior to its filing or other submission. By 9:30 a.m. New York time on the second Business Day following the date the Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission, the Company shall file with the Commission in accordance with Rule 424 promulgated under the 1933 Act the final prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to such Registration Statement.

(b) Expenses. The Company will pay all expenses associated with effecting the registration of the resale of the Registrable Securities, including filing and printing fees, the Company’s counsel and accounting fees and expenses, costs associated with clearing the Registrable Securities for sale under applicable state securities laws, listing fees, reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel to the Paragon Stockholders up to an aggregate of $10,000 (collectively, the “Registration Expenses”), but excluding discounts, commissions, fees of underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers or similar securities industry professionals and stock transfer taxes with respect to the Registrable Securities being sold and legal expenses not included within the definition of Registration Expenses.

(i) The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as practicable after the Filing Deadline, but in any event no later than the earlier of (i) sixty (60) calendar days (or ninety (90) calendar days if the Commission notifies the Company that it will “review” the Registration Statement) after May 19, 2022 and (ii) the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that such Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review (such date, the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, however, that if the Effectiveness Deadline falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business.

(ii) For not more than fifteen (15) consecutive days, provided the first day of any such period be at least five (5) days after the last day of any such prior period, or for a total of not more than forty-five (45) days in any twelve (12) month period, the Company may, following the date a Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission, suspend the use of any Prospectus included in any Registration Statement contemplated by this Section 2 in the event that the Company determines in good faith that such suspension is necessary to (A) delay the disclosure of material non-public information concerning the Company, the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the Company, in the best interests of the Company or (B) amend or supplement the affected Registration Statement or the related Prospectus so that such Registration Statement or Prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the case of the Prospectus in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (an “Allowed Delay”); provided, that the Company shall promptly (a) notify each Paragon Stockholder in writing of the commencement of an Allowed Delay, but shall not (without the prior written consent of a Paragon Stockholder) disclose to such Paragon Stockholder any material non-public information giving rise to an Allowed Delay, (b) advise the Paragon Stockholder in writing to cease all sales under the Registration Statement until the end of the Allowed Delay and (c) use commercially reasonable efforts to terminate an Allowed Delay as promptly as practicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to a transferee of a Paragon Stockholder in accordance with the applicable Paragon Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which a Paragon Stockholder has entered into a contract for sale, prior to the Paragon Stockholder’s receipt of the notice of an Allowed Delay and for which the Paragon Stockholder has not yet settled.

(d) Rule 415; Cutback. If at any time the Commission takes the position that the offering of some or all of the Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement is not eligible to be made on a delayed or continuous basis under the provisions of Rule 415 under the 1933 Act, requires any Paragon Stockholder to be named as an “underwriter” or otherwise requires the Company to limit the number of shares eligible to be registered on the Registration Statement, the Company shall use its best efforts to persuade the Commission that, as applicable, the offering contemplated by the Registration Statement is a bona fide secondary offering and not an offering “by or on behalf of the issuer” as defined in Rule 415, that none of the Paragon Stockholders is an “underwriter” or that the number of shares the Company is eligible to register on the Registration Statement should not be so limited. The Paragon Stockholders shall have the right to participate or have their counsel participate in any meetings or discussions with the Commission regarding the Commission’s position and to comment or have their counsel comment on any written submission made to the Commission with respect thereto. No such written submission shall be made to the Commission to which the Paragon Stockholders’ counsel reasonably objects. In the event that, despite the Company’s best efforts and compliance with the terms of this Section 2(d), the Commission refuses to alter its position, the Company shall (i) remove from the Registration Statement such portion of the Registrable Securities and/or (ii) agree to such restrictions and limitations on the registration and resale of the Registrable Securities as the Commission may require to assure the Company’s compliance with the requirements of Rule 415; provided, however, that the Company shall not agree to name any Paragon Stockholder as an “underwriter” in such Registration Statement without the prior written consent of such Paragon Stockholder. Any cutback imposed on the Paragon Stockholders pursuant to this Section 2(d) shall be allocated among the Paragon Stockholders on a pro rata basis, unless the Paragon Stockholders otherwise agree in writing. In the event the Company amends the Registration Statement in accordance with the foregoing, the Company shall on the later of (i) the date sixty (60) days after the date

substantially all of the Registrable Securities registered under the immediately preceding Registration Statement are sold and (ii) the date six (6) months from the date the immediately preceding Registration Statement filed with respect to the Registrable Securities is declared effective by the Commission (the “Additional Filing Deadline”), file additional Registration Statements (each, an “Additional Registration Statement”) successively trying to register on each such Additional Registration Statement the maximum number of remaining Registrable Securities until all remaining Registrable Securities not previously included in an effective Registration Statement has been registered with the Commission. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have each Additional Registration Statement declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable, but no later than the earlier of (i) sixty (60) calendar days (or ninety (90) calendar days if the Commission notifies the Company that it will “review” the Registration Statement) after Additional Filing Deadline and (ii) the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that such Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review (such date, the “Additional Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, however, that if the Additional Effectiveness Deadline falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Additional Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business. By 9:30 a.m. New York time on the second Business Day following the date an Additional Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission, the Company shall file with the Commission in accordance with Rule 424 under the 1933 Act the final prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to such Additional Registration Statement.

(c) Each Paragon Stockholder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of either (i) the commencement of an Allowed Delay pursuant to Section 2(c)(ii) or (ii) the receipt of notice or obtaining of knowledge by the Company of the issuance of any stop order by the Commission suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose, such Paragon Stockholder will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities, until the Paragon Stockholder is advised by the Company that such dispositions may again be made.

6. Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company will indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Paragon Stockholder and its respective officers, directors, members, managers, partners, trustees, employees and agents, successors and assigns, each underwriter, broker or any other person acting on behalf of such Paragon Stockholder and each other person, if any, who controls such Paragon Stockholder within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they may become subject under the 1933 Act or

otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto) or any amendment or supplement thereof; (ii) any blue sky application or other document executed by the Company specifically for that purpose or based upon written information furnished by the Company filed in any state or other jurisdiction in order to qualify any or all of the Registrable Securities under the securities laws thereof (any such application, document or information herein called a “Blue Sky Application”); (iii) the omission or alleged omission to state in a Blue Sky Application a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; or (iv) any violation or alleged violation by the Company or its agents of any rule or regulation promulgated under the 1933 Act or any state securities law applicable to the Company or its agents and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with such registration, and will reimburse such Paragon Stockholder, and each such officer, director or member and each such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case if and to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished by such Paragon Stockholder or any such controlling person in writing specifically for use in such Registration Statement or Prospectus.

(b) Indemnification by the Paragon Stockholders. Each Paragon Stockholder agrees, severally but not jointly, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors, officers, employees, stockholders and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the 0000 Xxx) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expense (including reasonable attorney fees) resulting from any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission of a material fact required to be stated in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information furnished in writing by such Paragon Stockholder to the Company specifically for inclusion in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto. In no event shall the liability of a Paragon Stockholder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Paragon Stockholder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and such indemnifying party shall assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such person unless (a) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses, or (b) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person or (c) in the reasonable judgment of any such person, based upon written advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest exists between such

person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such person); and provided, further, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall materially adversely affect the indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or litigation. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for fees or expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (plus one local counsel, if applicable) at any time for all such indemnified parties. No indemnifying party will (i), except with the consent of the indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation and (ii) be liable for any settlement entered into without the indemnifying party’s prior written approval, such approval not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed.

(d) Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in the preceding paragraphs (a) and (b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient to hold it harmless, other than as expressly specified therein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act shall be entitled to contribution from any person not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In no event shall the contribution obligation of a holder of Registrable Securities be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by it upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation.

7. Lock-Up.

(a) Lock-Up. Except as permitted by Section 7(b), no Paragon Stockholder shall Transfer (other than a Permitted Transfer) or make a public announcement of any intention to Transfer (other than a Permitted Transfer), any Lock-Up Shares during the Lock-Up Period.
