Immediately after the Closing, the Parties shall take all necessary action to designate and appoint to the Post-Closing Board five (5) persons that are designated by Seller (“Seller Directors”) prior to the Closing, at least three of whom shall qualify as an independent director under Nasdaq rules. At or prior to the Closing, Seller will provide each Seller Director with a customary director indemnification agreement, in form and substance reasonable acceptable to such Seller Director.

(b)The Parties shall take all action necessary, including causing the executive officers of Purchaser to resign, so that the individuals serving as the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, respectively, of Purchaser immediately after the Closing will be the same individuals (in the same office) as that of Seller immediately prior to the Closing (unless, at its sole discretion, Seller desires to appoint another qualified person to either such role, in which case, such other person identified by Seller shall serve in such role).

(a)The Parties agree that all rights to exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses existing in favor of the current or former directors and officers of Purchaser (the “D&O Indemnified Persons”) or under any indemnification, employment or other similar agreements between any D&O Indemnified Person and Purchaser, in each case as in effect on the date of this Agreement, shall survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms to the extent permitted by applicable Law. For a period of two (2) years after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause its Organizational Documents to contain provisions no less favorable with respect to exculpation and indemnification of and advancement of expenses to D&O Indemnified Persons than are set forth as of the date of this Agreement in the Organizational Documents of Purchaser to the extent permitted by applicable Law. The provisions of this Section 5.14 shall survive the consummation of the Transactions and are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the D&O Indemnified Persons and their respective heirs and representatives.

(b)For the benefit of Purchaser’s directors and officers, Purchaser shall be permitted prior to the Closing Date to obtain and fully pay the reasonable premium for a “tail” insurance policy that provides coverage for up to a two-year period from and after the Closing Date for events occurring prior to the Closing Date (the “D&O Tail Insurance”) that is substantially equivalent to and in any event not less favorable in the aggregate than Purchaser’s existing policy or, if substantially equivalent insurance coverage is unavailable, the best available coverage. If obtained, Purchaser shall maintain the D&O Tail Insurance in full force and effect, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder, and Purchaser shall timely pay or caused to be paid all premiums with respect to the D&O Tail Insurance. The premiums for the D&O Tail Insurance will be paid by the Target Companies at the Closing. On the date hereof, Purchaser has provided Seller an estimate of reasonable premium for the D&O Tail Insurance.

5.15Funding for Subsidiary. On or before Closing Date, Purchaser’s current management will ensure that cash in the amount of $100,000 is available for Purchaser’s subsidiary that operates Purchaser’s

specialty finance business. Upon Closing, Bruce M. Rodgers (“Rodgers”) will continue to run the specialty finance business through such subsidiary without further cash injection by Purchaser. If Purchaser determines to sell such business, it shall first offer to sell it to an entity controlled by Rodgers in consideration of assumption of all liabilities of such business provided Purchaser receives a fairness opinion to its reasonable satisfaction for such transaction.

5.16Restructuring. In the event that the Stockholder Approval is not obtained or cannot be realistically obtained due to reasons related to the SEC or Nasdaq or other reasons, (a) Purchaser, at Seller’s request, shall continue to take any and all reasonable or necessary actions to seek such approval, including but not limited to actions similar to those set forth in Section 5.9, and (b) notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Seller or any Person Seller designates (“New Seller”) may propose a set of assets and/or businesses to replace those of the Target Companies (“New Target Companies”) and Seller may assign this Agreement to the New Seller, and Purchaser shall accept the changes related to the New Target Companies and the assignment of this Agreement to the New Seller, provided that (i) the Parties agree to jointly determine in good faith the appropriate fair market value of the New Target Companies and the resulting ownership percentage to be used to replace the percentage set forth in Section 1.2(a), and (ii) Purchaser shall have received a fairness opinion with respect to the New Target Companies prior to the Closing Date.

5.17 Company Audited Financial Statements; Company Interim Financial Statements. No later than May 31, 2020 (“Audit Delivery Date”), Seller shall deliver to Purchaser audited consolidated financial statements of the Target Companies for the two (2) fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 (the “Company Audited Financial Statements”); provided, however, that in the event the Company Audited Financial Statements are not delivered on or before the Audit Delivery Date, the Audit Delivery Date shall be changed retroactively to June 30, 2020 if on or before May 31, 2020 Seller provides with Purchaser with a written status report and affirms Seller’s good faith belief that the Company Audited Financial Statements will be delivered by June 30, 2020. Such audited financial statements shall be audited by an accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB), include an auditor’s report of such accounting firm expressing an unqualified opinion, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of the chief financial officer of the Company to the effect that all such financial statements fairly present the consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the date or for the periods indicated, in accordance with GAAP, subject to year-end audit adjustments and excluding footnotes. No later than ninety (90) days after the completion of each semi-annual period of the Company, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Target Companies for the most recently completed semi-annual period (the “Company Interim Financial Statements”).

(a)As of Closing and after giving effect to the sale of the Initial Shares and the Warrant Exercise, Purchaser shall have cash and cash equivalents of at least USD$500,000.

(b)Prior to Closing and without the prior written consent of Seller (and so long as Seller is not in material breach of this Agreement), Purchaser may not use the proceeds from the sale of the Initial Shares for expenditures that are (a) not in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice, (b) in material variations from the Budget (provided that any monthly net cash outlay of $100,000 or more, excluding Covered Expenses, shall be deemed a material variation from the Budget and require Seller’s prior written consent), (c) more than USD$750,000 in the aggregate, or (d) Covered Expenses without complying with Section 7.3(b). On the date hereof, Purchaser has delivered to Seller a budget (“Budget”) setting forth Purchaser’s plan to use its cash, including proceeds from the sale of the Initial Shares, for the next 12 months.

(c)For the sake of clarity, proceeds from the Warrant Exercise shall not be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5.18(b).

7.2Effect of Termination. This Agreement may only be terminated in the circumstances described in Section 7.1 and pursuant to a written notice delivered by the applicable Party to the other applicable Parties, which sets forth the basis for such termination, including the provision of Section 7.1 under which such termination is made. In the event of the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void, and there shall be no Liability on the part of any Party or any of their respective Representatives, and all rights and obligations of each Party shall cease, except: (i) Sections 5.10, 5.11, 7.3, 7.4, Article VIII and this Section 7.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and (ii) nothing herein shall relieve any Party from Liability for any willful breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation under this Agreement or any Fraud Claim against such Party, in either case, prior to termination of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, and except as provided in Sections 7.3 and 7.4 and this Section 7.2 (but subject to the right to seek injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief in accordance with Section 8.6), the Parties’ sole right prior to the Closing with respect to any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained in this Agreement by another Party or with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be the right, if applicable, to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1.

(a)Except as provided in Section 7.3(b), all Expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the Party incurring such expenses. As used in this Agreement, “Expenses” shall include all out-of-pocket expenses (including all fees and expenses of counsel, accountants, investment bankers, financial advisors, financing sources, experts and consultants to a Party hereto or any of its Affiliates) incurred by a Party or on its behalf in connection with or related to the authorization, preparation, negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document related hereto and all other matters related to the consummation of this Agreement.

(b)The following expenses of Purchaser (the “Covered Expenses”) may be paid from the proceeds of the sale of Initial Shares: Purchaser’s reasonable Expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including without limitation due diligence expenses, reasonable expenses for Nasdaq and SEC counsel, proxy filing and printing costs, and fairness opinions, not exceeding $225,000 in the aggregate.

(a)In the event that there is a valid and effective termination of this Agreement by Purchaser pursuant to Section 7.1(h), then Purchaser shall pay to Seller a termination fee equal to (i) Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars ($500,000) (“Break-up Fee”), plus (ii) the Expenses actually incurred by or on behalf of Seller or any of its Affiliates in connection with the authorization, preparation, negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents or the Transactions, including any related SEC filings and the Proxy Statement (“Seller Expenses”), plus (iii) the aggregate amount paid by Seller in connection with the purchase of the Initial Shares (“Share Repurchase Fee”) (provided that to receive the Share Repurchase Fee, Seller will execute documentation prepared by Purchaser and reasonably satisfactory to Seller and its counsel in connection with retuning the Initial Shares to Purchaser).

(b)In the event that there is a valid and effective termination of this Agreement by Seller pursuant to Section 7.1(d) or 7.1(g), then Purchaser shall pay to Seller a termination fee equal to (i) the Seller Expenses, plus (ii) the Share Repurchase Fee; provided, however, that no termination fee shall be payable under this Section 7.4(b) as a result of a delisting of Purchaser’s securities from Nasdaq (and instead Section 7.4(d) below shall apply).

(c)In the event that there is a valid and effective termination of this Agreement by Purchaser pursuant to Section 7.1(f), then Purchaser shall pay to Seller a termination fee equal to the Share Repurchase Fee.

(d)In the event that there is a valid and effective termination of this Agreement by Seller pursuant to Section 7.1(i), then Purchaser shall pay to Seller a termination fee equal to the Share Repurchase Fee minus the Covered Expenses.

(e)Unless otherwise specified in the Demand Letter pursuant to Section 7.4(f), any termination fee payable to Seller under this Section 7.4 shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Seller within five (5) Business Days after Seller delivers to Purchaser a written notice, which shall include the amount of the Seller Expenses, along with reasonable documentation in connection therewith. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parties expressly acknowledge and agree that, with respect to any termination of this Agreement in circumstances where fees are payable pursuant to this Section 7.4, the payment of such fees shall, in light of the difficulty of accurately determining actual damages, constitute liquidated damages with respect to any claim for damages or any other claim which Seller would otherwise be entitled to assert

against the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective assets, or against any of their respective directors, officers, employees or shareholders with respect to this Agreement and the Transactions and shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy available to Seller, provided, that the foregoing shall not limit (x) Purchaser from Liability for any Fraud Claim relating to events occurring prior to termination of this Agreement or (y) the rights of Seller to seek specific performance or other injunctive relief in lieu of terminating this Agreement.

(f)In the event that termination fees are due and payable under this Section 7.4 and Purchaser does not have sufficient immediately available funds to pay such fees in full, then at Seller’s option, Seller may demand in writing (the “Demand Letter”) that with respect to all or a portion of the due and payable termination fee set forth in the Demand Letter (the “Stock Amount”), Purchaser deliver to Seller, in lieu of cash, free and clear of any Liens (other than those imposed by Purchaser’s Organizational Documents or applicable securities Laws) such number of Purchaser Shares (the “New Shares”), with each New Share valued at an amount equal to 90% of the VWAP of the Purchaser Shares for the twenty (20) trading days immediately before the date the Demand Letter is delivered to Purchaser, that the total value of the New Shares is equal to Stock Amount, provided that (a) such amount does not exceed the total amount otherwise payable under this Section 7.4, and (b) the number of New Shares will not constitute more than 19.99% of the issued and outstanding Purchaser Shares before the issuance of the New Shares. Any termination fees not satisfied by the issuance of New Shares or cash payment shall remain due and payable pursuant to the terms hereof.

Each Party hereto hereby (a) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any Specified Court for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any Party hereto and (b) irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert by way of motion, defense or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may not be enforced in or by any Specified Court.

Nothing in this Section 8.4 shall affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law.

8.5WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

(d)None of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Shareholder, the consummation by Shareholder of the transactions contemplated hereby or compliance by Shareholder with any of the provisions hereof will conflict with or result in a breach, or constitute a default (with or without notice of lapse of time or both) under any provision of, any trust agreement, loan or credit agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other agreement, instrument or Law applicable to Shareholder or to Shareholder's property or assets.

Except as expressly permitted under Section 5.5 of the Exchange Agreement, Shareholder agrees during the period from and including the date hereof through and including the date on which this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms (the “Voting Period”) to vote the Shares, and to cause any holder of record of Shares to vote (in person or by proxy), or execute a written consent or consents if shareholders of the Purchaser are requested to vote their shares through the execution of an action by written consent in lieu of any such annual or special meeting of Shareholders of the Purchaser: (i) in favor of the Exchange Agreement, the Ancillary Documents, the Transactions and any actions required in furtherance thereof, at every meeting (or in connection with any action by written consent) of the shareholders of the Purchaser at which such matters are considered and at every adjournment or postponement thereof; (ii) against (1) any Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Exchange Agreement), (2) any action, proposal, transaction or agreement which could reasonably be expected to result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of the Purchaser under the Exchange Agreement or of Shareholder under this Agreement, and (3) any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that could reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, discourage, adversely affect or inhibit the timely consummation of the Transactions or the fulfillment of the Purchaser’s conditions under the Exchange Agreement or change in any manner the voting rights of any class of shares of the Purchaser. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude the Shareholder from voting for a Superior Proposal (and, in that circumstance, against the Transactions and the Exchange Agreement) in accordance with the terms of Section 5.5 of the Exchange Agreement.

4.Grant of Proxy. Shareholder, with respect to all of the Shares, hereby irrevocably grants to, and appoints, Seller and any designee of Seller (determined in Seller’s sole discretion) as Shareholder’s attorney-in-fact and proxy, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, for and in Shareholder’s name, to vote, or cause to be voted (including by proxy or written consent, if applicable) any Shares owned (whether beneficially or of record) by Shareholder. The proxy granted by Shareholder pursuant to this

Section 4 is irrevocable and is granted in consideration of Seller entering into this Agreement and the Exchange Agreement and incurring certain related fees and expenses. Shareholder hereby affirms that such irrevocable proxy is coupled with an interest by reason of the Exchange Agreement and, except upon the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9, is intended to be irrevocable. Holder agrees, until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 9, to vote its Shares in accordance with Section 3 above.

Shareholder agrees that Shareholder will not, and will not permit any entity under Shareholder’s control to, deposit any of the Shares in a voting trust, grant any proxies with respect to the Shares or subject any of the Shares to any arrangement with respect to the voting of the Shares other than pursuant to this Agreement or specifically requested to do so by Seller in connection with the Exchange Agreement, the Ancillary Documents and any of the Transactions.

Shareholder agrees that during the term of this Agreement, Shareholder will not, directly or indirectly, transfer, sell, offer, exchange, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of or encumber (“Transfer”) any of the Shares or enter into any contract, option or other agreement with respect to, or consent to, a Transfer of, any of the Shares or Shareholder's voting or economic interest therein. Any attempted Transfer of Shares or any interest therein in violation of this Section 6 shall be null and void. This Section 6 shall not prohibit a Transfer of the Shares by Shareholder to any member of Shareholder’s immediate family, or to a trust for the benefit of Shareholder or any member of Shareholder's immediate family, or upon the death of Shareholder; provided, that a Transfer referred to in this sentence shall be permitted only if, as a precondition to such Transfer, the transferee agrees in a writing, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company, to be bound by all of the terms of this Agreement.

Shareholder agrees that all shares of Purchaser Common Stock that Shareholder purchases, acquires the right to vote or otherwise acquires beneficial ownership (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of after the execution of this Agreement shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement and shall constitute Shares for all purposes of this Agreement.

Shareholder hereby waives, and agrees not to assert or perfect, any rights of appraisal or rights to dissent from the Transactions that Shareholder may have by virtue of ownership of the Shares.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Agreement shall terminate, and the Parties shall have no rights or obligations hereunder, upon the earliest to occur of (i) the mutual agreement of Seller and Shareholder, (ii) the day after the Closing Date (following the performance of the obligations of the parties under the Exchange Agreement required to be performed at or prior to Closing), or (iii) the date on which the Exchange Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms.

Shareholder makes no agreement or understanding in this Agreement in Shareholder's capacity as a director or officer of the Purchaser or any of its subsidiaries (if Shareholder holds such office), and nothing in this Agreement: (a) will limit or affect any actions or omissions taken by Shareholder in Shareholder's capacity as such a director or officer, including in exercising rights under the Exchange Agreement, and no such actions or omissions shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement or (b) will be construed to prohibit, limit or restrict Shareholder from exercising Shareholder's fiduciary duties as an officer or director to the Purchaser or its shareholders.

Each Party acknowledges that it may be impossible to measure in money the damage to the other Party if a Party fails to comply with any of the obligations imposed by this Agreement, that every such obligation is material and that, in the event of any such failure, the other Party may not have an adequate remedy at law or damages. Accordingly, each Party agrees that injunctive relief or other equitable remedy, in addition to remedies at law or damages, is the appropriate remedy for any such failure and will not oppose the seeking of such relief on the basis that the other Party has an adequate remedy at law. Each Party agrees that it will not seek, and agrees to waive any requirement for, the securing or posting of a bond in connection with any other Party’s seeking or obtaining such equitable relief.

This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and contains the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be amended or supplemented, and no provisions hereof may be modified or waived, except by an instrument in writing signed by the Parties hereto. No waiver of any provisions hereof by either party shall be deemed a waiver of any other provisions hereof by such Party, nor shall any such waiver be deemed a continuing waiver of any provision hereof by such Party.

None of the Company, nor to the knowledge of the Company, any of its predecessors, any affiliated issuer, any director, executive officer, other officer of the Company participating in the offering contemplated hereby, any beneficial owner of 20% or more of the Company’s outstanding voting equity securities, calculated on the basis of voting power, nor any promoter (as that term is defined in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act) connected with the Company in any capacity at the time of sale (each, an “Issuer Covered Person”) is subject to any of the “Bad Actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) under the 1933 Act (a “Disqualification Event”), except for a Disqualification Event covered by Rule 506(d)(2) or (d)(3). The Company has exercised reasonable care to determine whether any Issuer Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event.

(a)Transfer Agent Instructions. The Company represents and warrants that no instruction other than the stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 2(g) hereof, will be given by the Company to its transfer agent with respect to the Shares, and that the Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company, as applicable, to the extent provided in this Agreement.

(b)Legends. Each Buyer understands that the Shares have been issued pursuant to an exemption from registration or qualification under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws, and except as set forth below, the Shares shall bear any legend as required by the “blue sky” laws of any state and a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such stock certificates):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO (I) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR (IF REQUESTED BY THE COMPANY) TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY OR (II) RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

(c)Removal of Legends. Certificates evidencing Shares shall not be required to contain the legend set forth in Section 4(b) above or any other legend (i) following a sale of such Shares pursuant to a registration statement covering the resale of such Shares under the 1933 Act, (ii) following any sale of such Shares pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming the transferor is not an affiliate of the Company) or (iii) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the 1933 Act (including, without limitation, controlling judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the SEC). If a legend is not required pursuant to the foregoing, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts following the delivery by a Buyer to the Company or the transfer agent (with notice to the Company) of a legended certificate representing such Shares (endorsed or with stock powers attached, signatures guaranteed, and otherwise in form necessary to affect the reissuance and/or transfer, if applicable), together with any other deliveries from such Buyer as may be required above in this Section 4(c), as directed by such Buyer, either: (A) provided that the Company’s transfer agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which such Buyer shall be entitled to such Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system or (B) if the Company’s transfer agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, issue and deliver (via reputable overnight courier) to such Buyer, a certificate representing such Shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends, registered in the name of such Buyer or its designee.

(a)Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall (i) limit, or be deemed to limit, in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law or (ii) operate, or shall be deemed to operate, to preclude any Buyer or the Company, as applicable, from bringing suit or taking other legal action against any Buyer or the Company, as applicable, in any other jurisdiction to collect on an obligation to such other party or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of such party. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

(b)Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

(c)Headings; Gender. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision in which they are found.

(d)Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

(e)Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement and the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between the Buyers, the Company, their affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf solely with respect to the matters contained herein and therein, and this Agreement, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein contain the entire understanding of the parties solely with respect to the matters covered herein and therein; provided, however, nothing contained in this Agreement shall (or shall be deemed to) (i) have any effect on any agreements any Buyer has entered into with, or any instruments any Buyer has received from, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof with respect to any prior investment made by such Buyer in the Company or (ii) waive, alter, modify or amend in any respect any obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any rights of or benefits to any Buyer or any other Person, in any agreement entered into prior to the date hereof between or among the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries and any Buyer, or any instruments any Buyer received from the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof, and all such agreements and instruments shall continue in full

force and effect. Except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company nor any Buyer makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. For clarification purposes, the Recitals are part of this Agreement. Provisions of this Agreement may be amended only with the written consent of the Company and each Buyer. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party.

(g)Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of: (a) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number or email attachment at the email address as set forth on the signature pages attached hereto at or prior to 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a Trading Day, (b) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number or email attachment at the email address as set forth on the signature pages attached hereto on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any Trading Day, (c) the second (2nd) Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally recognized overnight courier service or (d) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given. The address for such notices and communications shall be as set forth on the signature pages attached hereto.

(h)Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns, including, as contemplated below, any assignee or transferee of any of the Shares. The Company shall not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each of the Buyers (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion). A Buyer may assign some or all of its rights hereunder in connection with any permitted assignment or transfer of any of its Shares without the consent of the Company, in which event such assignee or transferee (as the case may be) shall be deemed to be a Buyer hereunder with respect to such assigned rights.

(i)No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person.

(j)Survival. The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants shall survive each Closing. Each Buyer shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder.

(k)Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(l)Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. No specific representation or warranty shall limit the generality or applicability of a more general representation or warranty. Each and every reference to share

prices, shares of Common Stock and any other numbers in this Agreement that relate to the Common Stock shall be automatically adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions that occur with respect to the Common Stock after the date of this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused its signature page to this Agreement to be duly executed as of the date first written above.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized signatories as of the date first indicated above.
