(A)    Before an Institutional Investor (other than Warburg Pincus) may effect a Proposed Transfer, such Institutional Investor (the “Transferring Institutional Investor”) must provide, at the same time, the Company and the Unaffiliated Investors a written notice of the Proposed Transfer (the “Transfer Notice”) stating: (a) such Transferring Institutional Investor’s bona fide intention to transfer such Offered Shares (as defined below); (b) the number of each type and class of Shares to be Transferred (the “Offered Shares”); (c) the name address and relationship, if any, to the


Transferring Institutional Investor of each proposed purchaser or other transferee; and (d) the bona fide cash price, or in reasonable detail, other consideration, per share for which the Transferring Institutional Investor proposes to transfer such Offered Shares (the “Offered Price”).
(B)    If the Company desires to purchase all or any part of the Offered Shares, the company must, within a twenty (20) day period (the “Company Refusal Period”) of receipt of the Transfer Notice, give written notice to the Transferring Institutional Investor and the Unaffiliated Investors which notice shall specify the number of Offered Shares the Company intends to purchase, or state that the Company does not intend to exercise its Right of First Refusal hereunder (the “Company Notice”). Notwithstanding any failure by the Company to deliver the Company’s Notice, a failure by the Company to exercise its Right of First Refusal within the Company Refusal Period shall be deemed a waiver of such right.
(C)    To the extent the Company does not purchase all of the Offered Shares, the Unaffiliated Investors shall have the opportunity to purchase the remaining Offered Shares. If any Unaffiliated Investors desires to purchase any of the remaining Offered Shares, such Unaffiliated Investor must, within a twenty (20) day period (the “Investor Refusal Period”) commencing on receipt of the Company Notice (or if no notice is received, commencing on the expiration of the Company Refusal Period), give written notice (the “Investor Notice”) to the Transferring Stockholder and to the Company of such Unaffiliated Investor’s election to purchase any remaining Offered Shares and specifying the amount of Offered Shares such Unaffiliated Investor shall purchase. If multiple Unaffiliated Investors elect to purchase the Offered Shares not purchased by the Company, each such Unaffiliated Investor shall have a right to purchase up to its pro rata share of the Offered Shares not purchased by the Company, based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by such Unaffiliated Investor on an as converted basis as a percentage of the number of shares of Common Stock held by all Unaffiliated Investors on an as converted basis exercising such right.
(D)    The purchase price for the Offered Shares to be purchased by the Company and/or the Unaffiliated Investor exercising its Right of First Refusal, as applicable, will be the Offered Price, and will be payable upon the ROFR Closing (as defined below) with respect to such Offered Shares. Payment of the purchase price will be made by the Company and/or the Unaffiliated Investor, as applicable, in cash or by wire transfer of immediately available funds or, if so provided in the offer of the prospective transferee, cash plus deferred payments of cash in the same proportions, and with the same terms of deferred payment as set forth therein.
(E)    If the Offered Price for the Offered Shares is for consideration other than cash or cash plus deferred payments of cash, the Company and/or the Unaffiliated Investors exercising their Right of First Refusal, as applicable (the “Purchaser”), shall pay the cash equivalent of such other consideration. If the Transferring Institutional Investor and the Purchaser(s) cannot agree on the amount of such cash equivalent within ten (10) days after the beginning of the twenty (20) day period following the expiration of the Company Refusal Period or Investor Refusal Period, as applicable, any of such parties may, by three (3) days’ written notice to the other, initiate appraisal proceedings under Section 3(c)(ii)(F) for determination of the cash equivalent; provided, however, in the event that there is more than one Purchaser, the determination by the Purchaser as to the


amount of the cash equivalent of such other consideration and any decision by the Purchaser to initiate appraisal proceedings shall be made jointly by the Purchasers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Purchaser may give written notice (a “Revocation Notice”) to the Transferring Institutional Investor and all other Purchasers revoking an election to purchase the Offered Shares within ten (10) days after determination of the appraised value, if it chooses not to purchase the Offered Shares at such appraised value, it being understood and agreed that if there is more than one Purchaser, any such Purchaser or all such Purchasers may deliver a Revocation Notice revoking its or their election to purchase the Offered Shares in accordance with the foregoing terms, and any such Purchaser that has not so revoked its election to purchase the Offered Shares shall have the right, at any time within three (3) Business Days of receipt of a Revocation Notice to elect to purchase the Offered Shares with respect to which a Revocation Notice has been delivered, and if there is more than one Purchaser that has not so revoked its election to purchase Offered Shares, all such non-revoking Purchasers shall have the right to purchase the Offered Shares with respect to which a Revocation Notice was delivered (with such right to be exercised in writing to the Transferring Institutional Investor and all other Purchasers no later than three (3) Business Days after the delivery of the final Revocation Notice). If multiple non-revoking Purchasers elect to purchase such Offered Shares with respect to which a Revocation Notice was delivered, each such non-revoking Purchaser shall have a right to purchase up to its pro rata share of the Offered Shares with respect to which a Revocation Notice was delivered, based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by such non-revoking Purchaser on an as converted basis as a percentage of the number of shares of Common Stock held by all non-revoking Purchasers on an as converted basis exercising such right.
(F)    If any party shall initiate an appraisal procedure to determine the amount of the cash equivalent of any consideration for Offered Shares under Section 3(c)(ii)(F), then the Transferring Institutional Investor, on the one hand, and the Purchaser seeking such appraisal (the “Appraising Purchaser”), on the other hand, shall each promptly appoint as an appraiser an individual who shall be a member of a nationally recognized investment banking firm; provided, however, in the event that there is more than one Appraising Purchaser, the nationally recognized investment banking firm appointed by the Appraising Purchaser shall be appointed jointly by all such Appraising Purchasers, with votes allocated in connection with such decision to each Appraising Purchaser proportionally based on the relative number of Offered Shares each Appraising Purchaser is proposing to purchase in such transaction. Each appraiser shall, within thirty (30) days of appointment, separately investigate the value of the consideration for the Offered Shares as of the proposed transfer date and shall submit a notice of an appraisal of that value to each party. Each appraiser shall be instructed to determine such value without regard to income tax consequences to the Transferring Institutional Investor as a result of receiving cash rather than other consideration. If the appraised values of such consideration (the “Earlier Appraisals”) vary by less than ten percent (10%), the average of the two appraisals on a per share basis shall be controlling as the amount of the cash equivalent. If the appraised values vary by more than ten percent (10%), the appraisers, within ten (10) days of the submission of the last appraisal, shall appoint a third appraiser who shall be a member of a nationally recognized investment banking firm. The third appraiser shall, within thirty (30) days of his appointment, appraise the value of the consideration for the Offered Shares (without regard to the income tax consequences to the Transferring Institutional Investor as a result of receiving cash rather than other consideration) as of the proposed transfer date and submit notice


of his appraisal to each party. The value determined by the third appraiser shall be controlling as the amount of the cash equivalent unless the value is greater than the two Earlier Appraisals, in which case the higher of the two Earlier Appraisals will control, and unless that value is lower than the two Earlier Appraisals, in which case the lower of the two Earlier Appraisals will control. If any party fails to appoint an appraiser or if one of the two initial appraisers fails after appointment to submit his appraisal within the required period, the appraisal submitted by the remaining appraiser shall be controlling. The Transferring Institutional Investor and the Appraising Purchaser shall each bear the cost of its respective appointed appraiser. The cost of the third appraisal shall be shared one-half by the Transferring Institutional Investor and one-half by the Appraising Purchaser; provided, however, in the event that there is more than one Appraising Purchaser, any amounts payable by the Appraising Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this sentence and the immediately preceding sentence shall be allocated to and be paid by each Appraising Purchaser proportionally based on the relative number of Offered Shares each Appraising Purchaser is proposing to purchase in such transaction (whether or not the Offered Shares are actually purchased by such Appraising Purchasers).
(G)    The closing of any purchase pursuant to this Section 3(c)(ii) (each, a “ROFR Closing”) shall take place within twenty (20) days following the expiration of the Company Refusal Period or Investor Refusal Period, as applicable, at the office of the Company or such other location as shall be mutually agreeable to the Transferring Institutional Investor and the Purchaser(s) and the purchase price, to the extent comprised of cash, shall be paid at such ROFR Closing, and cash equivalents and documents evidencing any deferred payments of cash permitted pursuant to Section 3(c)(ii)(D) above shall be delivered at such ROFR Closing. At such ROFR Closing, the Transferring Institutional Investor shall deliver to the Purchaser the certificates evidencing the Offered Shares to be conveyed, duly endorsed and in negotiable form with all the requisite documentary stamps affixed thereto.
(H)    If the Company or the Unaffiliated Investors have not elected to purchase all of the Offered Shares, then, subject to Section 3(d) below, the Transferring Institutional Investor may transfer the remaining portion of the Offered Shares proposed to be sold by the Transferring Institutional Investor, to any person named as a purchaser or other transferee in the Transfer Notice, at the Offered Price or at a higher price, provided that such Transfer (i) is consummated within ninety (90) days after the date of the Transfer Notice and (ii) is in accordance with all the terms of this Agreement. If the Offered Shares are not so transferred during such ninety (90) day period, the Transferring Institutional Investor may not Transfer any of such Offered Shares without complying again in full with the provisions of this Agreement.
(I)    The limitations of this Section 3(c)(ii) shall not apply to (i) sales by Tag-Along Investors (as defined below) pursuant to Section 3(d) hereof, (ii) sales by Institutional Investors pursuant to Section 3(e) hereof, (iii) a sale of the entire Company (whether by means of a stock sale, merger, consolidation or otherwise) or (iv) Transfers to Affiliates and legal advisors of such Transferring Institutional Investor.


(d)    Tag-Along Rights.
(i)    In the event any Other Investor intends to Transfer any Shares Owned by such Other Investor (other than Transfers to any Permitted Transferee or to the Company or Warburg Pincus or the Vertical Funds) in a Transfer that is permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, such Other Investor (the “Selling Investor”) shall notify the Institutional Investors, Janus and Norwest (the “Tag-Along Investors”), in writing, of such proposed Transfer and its terms and conditions. Within five (5) Business Days of the date of such notice, each Tag-Along Investor shall notify the Selling Investor if he, she or it elects to participate in such Transfer. Any Tag-Along Investor that fails to notify the Selling Investor within such five (5) Business Day period shall be deemed to have waived his, her or its rights hereunder. Each Tag-Along Investor that so notifies the Selling Investor shall have the right to sell, at the same price (subject to the provisions below) and on the same terms and conditions as the Selling Investor, an amount of Shares (excluding for purposes of this Section 3(d) any Granted Equity Shares (whether or not vested)) equal to the Shares the third party actually proposes to purchase multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Shares Owned (excluding any Granted Equity Shares (whether or not vested)) by such Tag-Along Investor and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate number of Shares Owned (excluding any Granted Equity Shares (whether or not vested)) by the Selling Investor and each Tag-Along Investor exercising his, her or its rights under this Section 3(d). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Selling Investor is selling only shares of Preferred Stock, Tag-Along Investors shall only have the right to sell such series of Preferred Stock as is being sold by the Selling Investor and shall not have the right to sell shares of Common Stock or any other series of Preferred Stock.
(ii)    Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 3(d) (Tag-Along Rights), in the event that all or a portion of the purchase price consists of securities and the Transfer of such securities to the Tag-Along Investors would require either a registration under the Securities Act or the preparation of a disclosure document pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act (or any successor regulation) or a similar provision of any state securities law, then, at the option of the Selling Investor, any one or more of the applicable Tag-Along Investors may receive, in lieu of such securities, the fair market value of such securities in cash, as determined in good faith by the Selling Investor.
(iii)    The provisions of this Section 3(d) (Tag-Along Rights) shall not apply to a merger, reorganization, consolidation, liquidation or winding up involving the Company. The provisions of this Section 3(d) (Tag-Along Rights) shall also not apply to a sale or other Transfer pursuant to which the Majority Holders have exercised their drag-along rights set forth herein.
(iv)    Norwest Tag-Along Rights.
(A)    In the event an Institutional Investor intends to Transfer any Shares Owned by such Institutional Investor (other than Transfers to any Permitted Transferee, Transfers pursuant to Section 3(d)(i)-(iii) and Transfers pursuant to Section 3(e) (Drag Along Rights)) in a Transfer that is permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, such Institutional Investor (the “Selling Institutional Investor”) shall notify Norwest, in writing, of such proposed Transfer and its terms and conditions. Within five (5) Business Days of the date of such notice, Norwest shall notify the Selling Institutional


Investor if it elects to participate in such Transfer. If Norwest fails to notify the Selling Institutional Investor within such five (5) Business Day period, then Norwest shall be deemed to have waived its rights hereunder. Norwest shall have the right to sell, at the same price (subject to the provisions below) and on the same terms and conditions as the Selling Institutional Investor, an amount of Shares equal to the Shares the third party actually proposes to purchase multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Shares Owned by Norwest and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate number of Shares Owned by the Selling Institutional Investor and Norwest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Selling Institutional Investor is selling a series of Preferred Stock, that is senior to the Preferred Stock held by Norwest, Norwest shall only have the right to sell such series of Preferred Stock as is being sold by the Selling Institutional Investor and shall not have the right to sell shares of Common Stock or any other junior series of Preferred Stock.
(B)    The provisions of this Section 3(d)(iv) (Norwest Tag-Along Rights) shall not apply to a merger, reorganization, consolidation, liquidation or winding up involving the Company or the sale of a security by a Selling Institutional Investor that is senior to that held by Norwest. The provisions of this Section 3(d)(iv) (Norwest Tag-Along Rights) shall also not apply to a sale or other Transfer pursuant to which the Majority Holders have exercised their drag-along rights set forth herein.
(e)    Drag Along Right.
(i)    If at any time and from time to time after the date of this Agreement, Warburg Pincus and its Affiliates together with any other stockholders that would result in an aggregate ownership of greater than fifty percent (50%) of the Company’s voting power (the “Majority Holders”) desire to (i) Transfer in a bona fide arms’ length sale all of their Shares to any Person or Persons who are not Affiliates of the Company or the Majority Holders, (ii) approve any merger of the Company with or into any other Person who is not an Affiliate of the Company or the Majority Holders, including any transaction that would constitute a Deemed Liquidation Event, or (iii) approve any sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to any Person or Persons who are not Affiliates of the Company or the Majority Holders, including any transaction that would constitute a Deemed Liquidation Event (for purposes of this Section 3(e) (Drag-Along Right), such Person or Persons is referred to as the “Proposed Transferee”) (such Transfers set forth in (i), (ii) and (iii), a “Proposed Sale”), the Majority Holders shall have the right (for purposes of Section 3(e), the “Drag-Along Right”), but not the obligation, (x) in the case of a Transfer of the type referred to in clause (i), to require each other Investor to sell to the Proposed Transferee all of such Investor’s Shares for the Per Share Drag-Along Purchase Price (as defined below), or (y) in the case of a merger or sale of assets or other Deemed Liquidation Event referred to in clauses (ii) or (iii), to require each other Investor to vote (or act by written consent with respect to) all Shares then Owned by such other Investor in favor of such transaction and to waive any dissenters’ rights, appraisal rights or similar rights such Investor may have under applicable law. Each Investor agrees to take all steps necessary to enable such Investor to comply with the provisions of this Section 3(e) to facilitate the Majority Holders’ exercise of a Drag-Along Right. As used herein, “Per Share Drag-Along Purchase Price” means: (i) to the extent that an Investor subject to the Drag-Along Right is selling the same security being sold by any of the Majority Holders, the same consideration per


share for such security as is proposed to be received by such Majority Holders (less, in the case of Share Equivalents, the exercise price for such Share Equivalents), including equivalent rights to receive (when and if paid) a proportionate share of any deferred consideration, earn-out or escrow funds that may become available to such Majority Holders in connection with the proposed transaction; and (ii) to the extent that an Investor subject to the Drag-Along Right is selling Common Stock (including any Share Equivalents) or a series of Preferred Stock other than any series of Preferred Stock being sold by the Majority Holders, the Per Share Drag-Along Purchase Price for each Share of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, shall be equal to the implied equity value of each Share of Common Stock (less, in the case of Share Equivalents, the exercise price for such Share Equivalents) or Preferred Stock as applicable, as determined by reference to the per share price being paid for the Shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, being sold by the Majority Holders and after giving effect to all amounts payable to the holders of Preferred Stock prior and in preference to the Common Stock pursuant to the liquidation preference provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation; provided, however, that if the per share price being paid for the Shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, being sold by the Majority Holders includes any rights to receive a proportionate share of any deferred consideration, earn-out or escrow funds that may become available to the Majority Holders in connection with the proposed transaction, such amounts shall be considered when determining the implied equity price of each Share of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, but any portion of such amount included in the implied equity price of each Share of Common Stock shall not be paid to the Investors selling Common Stock unless and until the portions of such amount included in the price per share being paid for the Preferred Stock are paid to the holders of the Preferred Stock and only to the extent that the holders of the Preferred Stock have received all amounts payable to the holders of Preferred Stock prior and in preference to the Common Stock pursuant to the liquidation preference provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate consideration receivable by all holders of the Preferred Stock and Common Stock in connection with a Proposed Sale shall be allocated among the holders of Preferred Stock and Common Stock on the basis of the relative liquidation preferences to which the holders of each respective series of Preferred Stock and the holders of Common Stock are entitled in a Deemed Liquidation Event (assuming for this purpose that the Proposed Sale is a Deemed Liquidation Event) in accordance with the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation in effect immediately prior to the Proposed Sale.
(ii)    To exercise a Drag-Along Right, the Majority Holders shall give each Investor a written notice (for purposes of this Section 3(e), a “Drag-Along Notice”) containing the proposed Per Share Drag-Along Purchase Price for each security proposed to be sold, terms of payment and other material terms and conditions of the Proposed Transferee’s offer. Each Investor shall thereafter be obligated to sell or vote (or act by written consent with respect to) all Shares (including any Share Equivalents) Owned by such Investor, provided that the sale to the Proposed Transferee is consummated within one hundred eighty (180) days of delivery of the Drag-Along Notice. If the sale, merger or other transaction contemplated by this Section 3(e) is not consummated within such 180-day period, then each Investor shall no longer be obligated to sell such Shares Owned by such Investor pursuant to that specific Drag-Along Right but shall remain subject to the provisions of this Section 3(e) (Drag-Along Right).


(iii)    Each Investor shall execute and deliver such instruments of conveyance and transfer and take such other action, including executing any purchase agreement, merger agreement, indemnity agreement, escrow agreement or related documents, as may be reasonably required by the Majority Holders or the Company in order to carry out the terms and provisions of this Section 3(e) (Drag-Along Right); provided, however, that no Investor shall be required to be bound by representations and warranties or covenants that are not applicable to all Investors. Each Investor (other than Janus and Norwest) acknowledges the rights of the WP X Funds to act on behalf of such Investor pursuant to Section 7(k) (Grant of Irrevocable Proxy). At the closing of the proposed transaction, each Investor shall deliver, against receipt of the consideration payable in such transaction, certificates representing the Shares which the Investor Owns, together with executed stock powers or other instruments of transfer acceptable to the Majority Holders.
(iv)    Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 3(e) (Drag-Along Right), in the event that all or a portion of the Per Share Drag-Along Purchase Price consists of securities and the sale of such securities to the Investors would require either a registration under the Securities Act or the preparation of a disclosure document pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act (or any successor regulation) or a similar provision of any state securities law, then, at the option of the Majority Holders, any one or more of the applicable Investors may receive, in lieu of such securities, the fair market value of some or all of such securities in cash, as determined in good faith by the Majority Holders.
(f)    Subscription Right.
(i)    If at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Initial Public Offering, the Company proposes to issue equity securities of any kind (for purposes of this Section 3(f), the term “equity securities” shall include any warrants, options or other rights to acquire equity securities or debt securities convertible into equity securities) of the Company (other than the issuance of securities (i) upon conversion of the Existing Series A Preferred, Series B Preferred Stock or Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation, (ii) to the public in a firm commitment underwriting pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act, (iii) pursuant to the acquisition of another Person by the Company or any subsidiary, whether by purchase of stock, merger, consolidation, purchase of all or substantially all of the assets of such Person or otherwise, provided such acquisition has been approved by the Board and such securities are being issued as consideration for the transaction and not in connection with financing the transaction, (iv) pursuant to an employee stock option plan, stock bonus plan, stock purchase plan, employment agreement or other management equity program approved by the Board, (v) to vendors, lenders and customers of and consultants to the Company or any subsidiary or in connection with a strategic partnership (provided such securities are being issued as consideration for the strategic partnership and not in connection with financing the strategic partnership), in each case, to the extent such issuance has been approved by the Board, (vi) by reason of a dividend, stock split or other distribution on shares of Common Stock, (vii) to one or more of the Institutional Investors and/or their Affiliates pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, or (viii) to any Other Investor pursuant to the terms of any employment or similar agreement between the Company and such Other Investor to the extent such employment or similar agreement was approved by the Board,


then, subject to the provisions set forth below, including Section 3(f)(vi) below, as to each Institutional Investor, Janus, Norwest and as to each Other Investor approved in writing by the WP X Funds to be listed on Schedule III hereto, provided that such Other Investor is an employee of the Company or its subsidiaries at such time (each a “Subscription Right Investor”), the Company shall:
(A)    give written notice setting forth in reasonable detail (1) the designation and all of the terms and provisions of the securities proposed to be issued (the “Proposed Securities”), including, where applicable, the voting powers, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights, and the qualification, limitations or restrictions thereof and interest or dividend rate and maturity; (2) the price and other terms of the proposed sale of such securities; (3) the amount of such securities proposed to be issued; and (4) such other information as a Subscription Right Investor may reasonably request in order to evaluate the proposed issuance; and
(B)    offer to issue to each such Subscription Right Investor a portion of the Proposed Securities equal to a percentage determined by dividing (x) the number of shares of Common Stock Owned by such Subscription Right Investor as a result of Purchased Equity Shares (excluding, for the sake of clarity, any Granted Equity Shares, whether or not vested) on an as converted basis, by (y) the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding on a Fully Diluted Basis.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Janus and Norwest shall not be entitled to participate in any offering for Proposed Securities pursuant to Section 3(f) unless any Warburg Pincus Entity (as defined below) participates in such offering to purchase Proposed Securities.
(ii)    Each such Subscription Right Investor must exercise his, her or its purchase rights hereunder within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice from the Company or such shorter period as may be required by the Company if the Company determines in good faith that a shorter period is necessary. If all of the Proposed Securities offered to such Subscription Right Investors are not fully subscribed for by such Subscription Right Investors, the remaining Proposed Securities will be reoffered to the Subscription Right Investors purchasing their full allotment upon the terms set forth in this Section 3(f) (Subscription Right), until all such Proposed Securities are fully subscribed for or until all such Subscription Right Investors have subscribed for all such Proposed Securities which they desire to purchase, except that such Subscription Right Investors must exercise their purchase rights within three (3) Business Days after receipt of all such reoffers or such shorter period as may be required by the Company if the Company determines in good faith that a shorter period is necessary. To the extent that the Company offers two or more securities to all prospective purchasers in a proposed issuance in units, such as convertible notes coupled with attached warrants (and only in such units), such Subscription Right Investors must purchase such units as a whole and will not be given the opportunity to purchase only one of the securities making up such unit.
(iii)    Upon the expiration of the offering periods described above (as such periods may be shortened by the Company), the Company will be free to sell such Proposed Securities that such Subscription Right Investors have not elected to purchase during the ninety


(90) days following such expiration on terms and conditions not materially more favorable to the purchasers thereof than those offered to such Subscription Right Investors. Any Proposed Securities offered or sold by the Company after such ninety (90)-day period must be reoffered to such Subscription Right Investors pursuant to this Section 3(f) (Subscription Right).
(iv)    The election by a Subscription Right Investor not to exercise such Subscription Right Investor’s subscription rights under this Section 3(f) (Subscription Right) in any one instance shall not affect such Subscription Right Investor’s right (other than in respect of a reduction in such Subscription Right Investor’s percentage holdings) as to any subsequent proposed issuance subject to this Section 3(f) (Subscription Right). If the Company determines in good faith that circumstances require the Company to sell the Proposed Securities to the Institutional Investors or their respective Affiliates, the Company shall be permitted to sell such Proposed Securities to such Institutional Investors and/or their respective Affiliates provided, that, promptly following such sale, the Company permits each Subscription Right Investor having rights under this Section 3(f) (Subscription Right) to purchase such Subscription Right Investor’s proportionate amount of such Proposed Securities in the manner contemplated by this Section 3(f) (Subscription Right).
(v)    Each such Subscription Right Investor shall, if requested by the Company and the Institutional Investors participating in such issuance of equity securities, execute a stockholders agreement (or consent to an amendment to this Agreement) with respect to such Proposed Securities with terms that are (to the extent practicable) substantially equivalent to the terms of this Agreement.
4.

The Company shall not, shall not permit any subsidiary to, either directly or indirectly, by amendment, merger, consolidation or otherwise, enter into certain transactions between the Company, on the one hand, and Warburg Pincus or its Affiliates (each, a “Warburg Pincus Entity” and together the “Warburg Pincus Entities”), on the other hand (an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless such Affiliate Transaction is approved by the vote or written consent of the holders of at least 70% of the then outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock, provided, that such approval or consent shall not be required for (i) any agreement, contract or transaction (including the Stock Purchase Agreement) on arm’s-length terms and/or approved by a majority of the disinterested directors, (ii) any issuance of equity or convertible debt securities to the Warburg Pincus Entities, in each case, as long as the preemptive rights, recapitalization and/or other applicable provisions of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws or this Agreement are not violated, (iii) any transaction expressly permitted or effected pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws, this Agreement, or the Registration Rights Agreement and/or (iv) any exculpation, indemnification or reimbursement, payment or advancement of expenses pursuant to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws, this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, any director indemnification agreement or any of the governance documents of any subsidiary of the Company.

(c)    Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties, provided that no Other Investor shall be permitted to assign any of his, her or its rights or obligations pursuant to this Agreement without the prior written consent of the WP X Funds, unless such assignment is in connection with a Transfer explicitly permitted by this Agreement and, prior to such assignment, such assignee complies with the requirements of this Agreement and provided, further, that, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the observer rights provided to Janus pursuant to Section 2(f) and the right to designate a Series C Director provided to Norwest pursuant to Section 2(a)(i), shall only be transferable with the Company’s written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) in connection with any Transfer by Janus or Norwest, respectively. Any attempted assignment by an Other Investor in violation of the foregoing shall be null and void.
(d)    Entire Agreement; Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement, the Stock Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement constitute the entire understanding of the parties hereto and supersede all prior agreements or understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof among such parties. This Agreement may be amended, and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived, with (and only with) the written consent of the Majority Institutional Investors, provided that any amendment, modification or waiver that would affect the rights, benefits or obligations of Norwest shall require the written consent of Norwest only if (i) such amendment, modification or waiver would materially and adversely affect such rights, benefits or obligations of Norwest and (ii) such amendment, modification or waiver would treat Norwest in a materially worse manner than the manner in which such amendment or waiver treats the other Institutional Investors and provided further that any amendment, modification or waiver that would affect the rights, benefits or obligations of Janus shall require the written consent of Janus only if (i) such amendment, modification or waiver would materially and adversely affect such rights, benefits or obligations of Janus and (ii) such amendment, modification or waiver would treat Janus in a materially worse manner than the manner in which such amendment or waiver treats the other Institutional Investors. For the avoidance of doubt, any amendment, modification or waiver of Section 4 shall require the consent of both Janus and Norwest. The Company shall give notice of any amendment or termination hereof or waiver hereunder to any party hereto that did not consent in writing to such amendment, termination, or waiver. Any amendment, termination, or waiver


effected in accordance with this Section 7(d) shall be binding on all parties hereto, regardless of whether any such party has consented thereto.
(e)    Severability. In the event that any part or parts of this Agreement shall be held illegal or unenforceable by any court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction, such determination shall not affect the remaining provisions of this Agreement which shall remain in full force and effect.
(f)    Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, each Investor shall execute and deliver any additional documents and instruments and perform any additional acts necessary or appropriate to effectuate and perform the provisions of this Agreement and those transactions.
(g)    No Partnership. Nothing in this Agreement and no actions taken by the parties under this Agreement shall constitute a partnership, association or other co-operative entity between any of the parties or cause any party to be deemed the agent of any other party for any purpose.
(h)    Specific Performance. It is hereby agreed and acknowledged that it will be impossible to measure in money the damages that would be suffered if the parties fail to comply with any of the obligations herein imposed on them and that, in the event of any such failure, an aggrieved Person will be irreparably damaged and will not have an adequate remedy at law. Any such party shall, therefore, be entitled (in addition to any other remedy to which such party may be entitled at law or in equity) to injunctive relief, including specific performance, to enforce such obligations, without the posting of any bond and if any action should be brought in equity to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, none of the parties hereto shall raise the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law.
(i)    Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement does not create any rights, claims or benefits inuring to any Person that is not a party hereto, and it does not create or establish any third party beneficiary hereto.
(j)    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (including by facsimile), each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall be considered one and the same agreement.
(k)    GRANT OF IRREVOCABLE PROXY. EACH OTHER INVESTOR (OTHER THAN JANUS OR NORWEST) HEREBY GRANTS TO EACH OF THE WP X FUNDS SUCH OTHER INVESTOR’S PROXY, AND APPOINTS EACH OF THE WP X FUNDS, OR ANY DESIGNEE OR NOMINEE OF THE WP X FUNDS, AS SUCH OTHER INVESTOR’S ATTORNEY-IN-FACT (WITH FULL POWER OF SUBSTITUTION AND RESUBSTITITION), FOR AND IN ITS NAME, PLACE AND STEAD, (I) TO VOTE OR ACT BY WRITTEN CONSENT WITH RESPECT TO THE GRANTED EQUITY SHARES (WHETHER OR NOT VESTED) NOW OR HEREAFTER OWNED BY SUCH OTHER INVESTOR (OR ANY TRANSFEREE THEREOF) (INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO SIGN HIS, HER OR ITS NAME TO ANY CONSENT, CERTIFICATE OR OTHER DOCUMENT RELATING TO THE COMPANY THAT DELAWARE LAW MAY REQUIRE) IN


CONNECTION WITH ANY AND ALL MATTERS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, MATTERS SET FORTH HEREIN AS TO WHICH ANY VOTE OR ACTIONS MAY BE REQUESTED OR REQUIRED; (II) TO VOTE OR ACT BY WRITTEN CONSENT WITH RESPECT TO THE SHARES (INCLUDING ANY PURCHASED EQUITY SHARES OR GRANTED EQUITY SHARES) NOW OR HEREAFTER OWNED BY SUCH OTHER INVESTOR (OR ANY TRANSFEREE THEREOF) (INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO SIGN HIS, HER OR ITS NAME TO ANY CONSENT, CERTIFICATE OR OTHER DOCUMENT RELATING TO THE COMPANY THAT APPLICABLE LAW MAY REQUIRE) IN CONNECTION WITH ANY AND ALL MATTERS CONTEMPLATED BY SECTION 3(E) (DRAG-ALONG RIGHT), (III) TO TAKE ANY AND ALL REASONABLE ACTION NECESSARY TO SELL OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER ANY SHARES (INCLUDING ANY PURCHASED EQUITY SHARES OR GRANTED EQUITY SHARES) OWNED BY SUCH OTHER INVESTOR AS CONTEMPLATED BY SECTION 3(E) (DRAG-ALONG RIGHT) HEREOF AND (IV) WITH RESPECT TO OTHER INVESTORS THAT ARE NOT EMPLOYEES OF THE COMPANY OR ITS SUBSIDIARIES (INCLUDING FORMER EMPLOYEES), TO VOTE OR ACT BY WRITTEN CONSENT WITH RESPECT TO THE PURCHASED EQUITY SHARE NOW OR HEREAFTER OWNED BY SUCH OTHER INVESTOR (OR ANY TRANSFEREE THEREOF) (INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO SIGN HIS, HER OR ITS NAME TO ANY CONSENT, CERTIFICATE OR OTHER DOCUMENT RELATING TO THE COMPANY THAT DELAWARE LAW MAY REQUIRE) IN CONNECTION WITH ANY AND ALL MATTERS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, MATTERS SET FORTH HEREIN AS TO WHICH ANY VOTE OR ACTIONS MAY BE REQUESTED OR REQUIRED. THIS PROXY IS COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST AND SHALL BE IRREVOCABLE, AND EACH SUCH OTHER INVESTOR WILL TAKE SUCH FURTHER ACTION OR EXECUTE SUCH OTHER INSTRUMENTS AS MAY BE REASONABLY NECESSARY TO EFFECTUATE THE INTENT OF THIS PROXY AND, EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER PROXY GIVEN BY AN OTHER INVESTOR TO THE COMPANY OR WARBURG PINCUS, HEREBY REVOKES ANY PROXY PREVIOUSLY GRANTED BY SUCH OTHER INVESTOR WITH RESPECT TO SUCH OTHER INVESTOR’S SHARES. IN THE EVENT THAT THE PROXY GRANTED IN THIS SECTION 7(K) (GRANT OF IRREVOCABLE PROXY) IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE TERMS OF ANY OTHER PROXY GRANTED BY AN OTHER INVESTOR TO THE WP X FUNDS OR ANY OTHER PERSON, INCLUDING PURSUANT TO ANY STOCK INCENTIVE OR OTHER EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN OF THE COMPANY, THEN THE TERMS OF THE PROXY GRANTED IN THIS SECTION 7(K) (GRANT OF IRREVOCABLE PROXY) SHALL GOVERN. IN THE EVENT THAT ANY OR ALL PROVISION OF THIS SECTION 7(K) (GRANT OF IRREVOCABLE PROXY) ARE DETERMINED TO BE UNENFORCEABLE, EACH OTHER INVESTOR WILL ENTER INTO A PROXY THAT, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, PRESERVES THE INTENT AND PROVIDES THE WP X FUNDS SUBSTANTIALLY THE SAME BENEFITS OF THIS SECTION 7(K) (GRANT OF IRREVOCABLE PROXY).
(l)    Agreements to Be Bound. Upon acceptance by the Company of a Joinder Agreement or as contemplated by Section 1(b) (Additional Investors), Schedule I or Schedule II


hereof, as applicable, shall be amended to include the applicable joining party and attached to this Agreement and be effective with no further action or consent required.
(m)    After Acquired Securities. Each Investor agrees that, except as otherwise provided herein, all of the provisions of this Agreement shall apply to all of the Shares now Owned (including any Granted Equity Shares and Purchased Equity Shares) or which may be issued or Transferred hereafter to an Investor in consequence of any additional issuance, purchase, Transfer, exchange or reclassification of any of such Shares, corporate reorganization, or any other form of recapitalization, consolidation, acquisition, stock split or stock dividend, or which are acquired by an Investor in any other manner.
(n)    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTIONS, SUITS, DEMAND LETTERS, JUDICIAL, ADMINISTRATIVE OR REGULATORY PROCEEDINGS, OR HEARINGS, NOTICES OF VIOLATION OR INVESTIGATIONS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) SUCH PARTY HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER AND (B) SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY.
(o)    “Market Stand-off” Agreement. Each of the Other Investors agrees, if requested by the Company and an underwriter of equity securities of the Company, not to sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Shares held by such Other Investor during the one hundred eighty (180)-day period (or such other period as may be requested by the Company or the managing underwriter to accommodate regulatory restrictions on (i) the publication or other distribution of research reports and (ii) analyst recommendations and opinions, including, but not limited to, the restrictions contained in NASD Rule 2711(f)(4), or any successor provisions or amendments thereto) following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act, provided that:
(i)    such agreement only applies to the Initial Public Offering; and
(ii)    all executive officers of the Company and all holders of one percent (1%) or more of the Company’s capital stock enter into similar agreements.
If requested by the underwriters, the Other Investors shall execute a separate agreement to the foregoing effect. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the shares (or securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of the period referenced above.

Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any certificate evidencing any Shares owned by an Investor and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) of a bond or an indemnity satisfactory to it, and upon surrender and cancellation of


such certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver in lieu of such certificate a new certificate of like tenor and for the number of securities evidenced by such certificate which remain outstanding. Upon surrender of any certificate representing any Shares for exchange at the office of the Company, the Company at its expense will cause to be issued in exchange therefor new certificates in such denomination or denominations as may be requested for the same aggregate number of Shares represented by the certificate so surrendered and registered as such holder may request.
(q)    Terms Generally. The words “hereby”, “herein”, “hereof”, “hereunder” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not merely to the specific section, paragraph or clause in which such word appears. All references herein to Articles and Sections shall be deemed references to Articles and Sections of this Agreement unless the context shall otherwise require.
