The Company shall notify Athyrium as promptly as practicable, and in any event, within twenty-four (24) hours, after the Registration Statement is declared effective.

2. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act in order to permit the Prospectus (as defined below) forming part of the Registration Statement to be usable by Athyrium until the earlier of: (i) the date as of which all Shares have been sold pursuant to the Registration Statement or another Registration Statement filed under the Securities Act (but in no event prior to the applicable period referred to in Section 4(a)(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 thereunder); (ii) the date on which all Shares covered by such Registration Statement may be sold without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144 and without the requirement to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) (or any successor thereto) promulgated under the 1933 Act during any ninety (90) day period and (iii) the date as of which Athyrium no longer holds Shares. “Prospectus” means (i) the prospectus included in any Registration Statement, all amendments and

3. For not more than ten (10) consecutive days or for a total of not more than twenty (20) days in any twelve (12) month period, the Company may suspend the use of any Prospectus included in any Registration Statement contemplated by this Section VII. 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 any untrue statement of a material fact or omission of any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing (an “Allowed Delay”); provided, that the Company shall promptly (1) notify Athyrium in writing of the commencement of an Allowed Delay, but shall not (without the prior written consent of Athyrium) disclose to Athyrium any material non-public information giving rise to an Allowed Delay, (2) advise Athyrium in writing to cease all sales under such Registration Statement until the end of the Allowed Delay and (3) use commercially reasonable efforts to terminate an Allowed Delay as promptly as practicable.

d. Liquidated Damages. If: (i) the Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to its Filing Deadline, (ii) the Company fails to file with the SEC a request for acceleration of a Registration Statement in accordance with Rule 461 promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act, within five business days of the date that the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that such Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review, or (iii) after the effective date of a Registration Statement, such Registration Statement ceases for any reason to remain continuously effective as to all Shares included in such Registration Statement, or Athyrium is otherwise not permitted to utilize the Prospectus therein to resell such Shares (other than due to the fault of Athyrium), for more than twenty (20) consecutive calendar days or more than an aggregate of twenty-five (25) calendar days (which need not be consecutive calendar days) during any 12-month period (any such failure or breach being referred to as an “Event,” and for purposes of clause (i), the date on which such Event occurs, and for purpose of clause (ii) the date on which such five (5) business days period is exceeded, and for purpose of clause (iii) the date on which such twenty (20) or twenty-five (25) calendar day period, as applicable, is exceeded being referred to as “Event Date”), then, in addition to any other rights Athyrium may have hereunder or under applicable law, on each such Event Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured, the Company shall pay to Athyrium an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to the product of 0.5% multiplied by the Equity Rolldown Amount deemed paid by Athyrium pursuant to this Agreement for such Shares held by Athyrium on such Event Date, provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to make any payments pursuant to this Section VII.d. if an Event occurred at such time that all Shares are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 (without volume restrictions or current public information requirements) promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act; provided, further, that the Company shall not be required to make any

payments pursuant to this Section VII.d. with respect to any Shares the Company is unable to register due to limits imposed by the SEC’s interpretation of Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The parties agree that the maximum aggregate liquidated damages payable to Athyrium under this Agreement and this Agreement shall be 5.0% of the Equity Rolldown Amount deemed paid by Athyrium pursuant to this Agreement. If the Company fails to pay any partial liquidated damages pursuant to this Section VII.d. in full within seven (7) business days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 1.0% per month (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to Athyrium, accruing daily from the date such partial liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. The partial liquidated damages pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily pro rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an Event. Such payments shall constitute Athyrium’ exclusive monetary remedy for such Events, but shall not affect the right of Athyrium to seek injunctive relief.

e. Limitation of Shelf Registration. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the SEC or any SEC Guidance (as defined below) sets forth a limitation on the number of Shares permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that the Company used diligent efforts to advocate with the SEC for the registration of all or a greater portion of Shares), unless otherwise directed in writing by Athyrium, the number of Shares to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced as follows:

1. First, the Company shall reduce or eliminate any securities to be included by any person other than Athyrium; and

2. Second, the Company shall reduce Shares.

In the event of a cutback hereunder, the Company shall give Athyrium at least two (2) business days prior written notice along with the calculations as to Athyrium’s allotment. In the event the Company amends the initial Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with the foregoing, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC, as promptly as allowed by the SEC or SEC Guidance provided to the Company or to registrants of securities in general, one or more registration statements on Form S-3 or such other form available to register for resale those Shares that were not registered for resale on such initial Registration Statement, as amended. “SEC Guidance” means (i) any publicly-available written or oral guidance of the SEC staff, or any comments, requirements or requests of the SEC staff and (ii) the Securities Act.

f. Registration Requirements. In connection with the Company’s obligations under Sections VII.a. through VII.e., the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such Registration (as defined below) and to permit the sale of such Shares in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof as expeditiously as reasonably practicable, and in connection therewith the Company shall:

3. notify Athyrium and the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, and (if requested) confirm such notice in writing and provide copies of the relevant documents, as soon as reasonably practicable after notice thereof is received by the Company (a) when the applicable Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed or becomes effective, and when the applicable Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto has been filed, (b) of any written comments by the SEC, or any request by the SEC or other federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to such Registration Statement or such Prospectus, or for additional information (whether before or after the effective date of the Registration Statement) or any other correspondence with the SEC relating to, or which may affect, the Registration, (c) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or any order by the SEC or any other regulatory authority preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary or final Prospectus or the initiation or threatening of any proceedings for such purposes, (d) if, at any time, the representations and warranties of the Company in any applicable underwriting agreement cease to be true and correct and (e) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Shares for offering or sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose;

5. use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent, or obtain the withdrawal of, any stop order or other order or notice preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary or final Prospectus;

6. promptly incorporate in a Prospectus supplement, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or post-effective amendment such information as the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, and Athyrium agree should be included therein relating to the plan of distribution with respect to such Shares; and make all required filings of such Prospectus supplement, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or post-effective amendment as soon as reasonably practicable after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such Prospectus supplement, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or post-effective amendment;

7. furnish to Athyrium and each underwriter, if any, without charge, as many conformed copies as Athyrium or such underwriter may reasonably request of the applicable Registration Statement and any amendment or post-effective amendment or supplement thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits (including those incorporated by reference);

9. on or prior to the date on which the applicable Registration Statement becomes effective, use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify, and cooperate with Athyrium, the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel, in connection with the Registration or qualification of such Shares for offer and sale under the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of each state and other jurisdiction as Athyrium, managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, or their respective counsel reasonably request in writing and do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary or advisable at Athyrium’s expense to keep such Registration or qualification in effect for such period as required by Section VII.c., provided that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or to take any action which would subject it to taxation or general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject;

h. Indemnification.

1. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the full extent permitted by law, Athyrium, each shareholder, member, limited or general partner of Athyrium, each shareholder, member, limited or general partner of each such shareholder, member, limited or general partner, each of their respective affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, employees, advisors, and agents and each person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) such persons and each of their respective representatives from and against any and all losses, penalties, judgments, suits, costs, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several (including reasonable costs of investigation and legal expenses as incurred and any indemnity and contribution payments made to underwriters) (each, a “Loss” and collectively “Losses”) arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which Shares are registered or sold under the Securities Act (including any final, preliminary or summary Prospectus contained therein or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any documents incorporated by reference therein) or any other disclosure document produced by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries including any report and other document filed under the Exchange Act, (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any federal, state, foreign or common law rule or regulation applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and relating to action or inaction in connection with any such registration, disclosure document or other document or report; provided, that Athyrium shall not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section VII.h.1. in respect of any untrue statement or omission contained in any information relating to Athyrium furnished in writing by Athyrium to the Company specifically for inclusion in a Registration Statement and used by the Company in conformity therewith (such information the “Selling Stockholder Information”). This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability the Company may otherwise have. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of Athyrium or any indemnified party and shall survive the Transfer of such securities by Athyrium and regardless of any indemnity agreed to in the underwriting agreement that is less favorable to Athyrium. The Company shall also indemnify underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, their officers and directors and each person who controls such persons (within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act) to the same extent as provided above (with appropriate modification) with respect to the indemnification of the indemnified parties.

2. Athyrium shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors and officers and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) from and against any Losses resulting from (i) any untrue statement of a material fact in any Registration Statement under which such Shares were registered or sold under the Securities Act (including any final, preliminary or summary

Prospectus contained therein or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any documents incorporated by reference therein) or (ii) any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained in the Selling Stockholder Information. In no event shall the liability of Athyrium hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds from the sale of its Shares in the offering giving rise to such indemnification obligation, net of underwriting discounts and commissions but before expenses, less any amounts paid by Athyrium pursuant to Section VII.h.4. and any amounts paid by Athyrium as a result of liabilities incurred under the underwriting agreement, if any, related to such sale.

3. Any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that any delay or failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder only to the extent, if at all, that it forfeits substantive legal rights by reason of such delay or failure) and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided, however, that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to select and 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 in writing to pay such fees or expenses, (B) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of such claim from the person entitled to indemnification hereunder and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person, (C) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based upon advice of its counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, or (D) in the reasonable judgment of any such person (based upon advice of its counsel) a conflict of interest may exist 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). If the indemnifying party assumes the defense, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to settle such action without the consent of the indemnified party. No indemnifying party shall consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of an unconditional release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation without the prior written consent of such indemnified party. If such defense is not assumed by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its prior written consent, but such consent may not be unreasonably withheld. It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, except as specifically set forth in this Section VII.h.3., in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees, disbursements or other charges of more than one separate firm admitted to practice in such jurisdiction at any one time unless (x) the employment of more than one counsel has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party or parties, (y) an indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on the advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the other indemnified parties or (z) a conflict or potential conflict exists or may exist (based

upon advice of counsel to an indemnified party) between such indemnified party and the other indemnified parties, in each of which cases the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such additional counsel or counsels.

4. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in Section VII.h.1. and Section VII.h.2. is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any Losses referred to therein (other than as a result of exceptions or limitations on indemnification contained in Section VII.h.1. and Section VII.h.2.), then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the other hand in connection with the acts, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. In connection with any Registration Statement filed with the SEC by the Company, the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section VII.h.4. were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section VII.h.4. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the Losses referred to in Sections VII.h.1. and VII.h.2. shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section VII.h.4., in connection with any Registration Statement filed by the Company, Athyrium shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the proceeds from the sale of its Shares in the offering giving rise to such indemnification obligation, net of underwriting discounts and commissions but before expenses, less any amounts paid by Athyrium pursuant to Section VII.h.2. and any amounts paid by Athyrium as a result of liabilities incurred under the underwriting agreement, if any, related to such sale. If indemnification is available under this Section VII.h., the indemnifying parties shall indemnify each indemnified party to the full extent provided in Sections VII.h.1. and VII.h.2. hereof without regard to the provisions of this Section VII.h.4. The remedies provided for in this Section VII.h. are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

i. Notification. As promptly as practicable, Athyrium shall notify the Company when all of Shares have been sold.

j. Existing Registration Statements. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and subject to applicable law and regulation, the Company may satisfy any obligation hereunder to file a Registration Statement or to have a Registration Statement become effective by a specified date by designating, by notice to Athyrium, a Registration Statement that previously has been filed with the SEC or become effective, as the case may be, as the relevant Registration Statement for purposes of satisfying such obligation, and all references to any such obligation shall be construed

accordingly; provided that such previously filed Registration Statement may be, and is, amended or, subject to applicable securities laws, supplemented to add the number of Shares, and, to the extent necessary, to identify Athyrium as selling stockholders demanding the filing of a Registration Statement pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. To the extent this Agreement refers to the filing or effectiveness of other Registration Statements, by or at a specified time and the Company has, in lieu of then filing such Registration Statements or having such Registration Statements become effective, designated a previously filed or effective Registration Statement as the relevant Registration Statement for such purposes, in accordance with the preceding sentence, such references shall be construed to refer to such designated Registration Statement, as amended or supplemented in the manner contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence.
