The Communications shall be considered “compromise negotiations” pursuant to the Federal Rules of Evidence or any comparable rule of evidence, and none of such Communications shall ever be considered “otherwise discoverable” or be permitted to be discoverable or admissible for any other purpose or to prove “bias, prejudice, interest of a witness or a party, negativing a contention of undue delay, or an effort to obstruct a criminal investigation or prosecution” as provided by the Federal Rules of Evidence or as may similarly be provided under any other applicable rule of evidence.

10. Further Assurances.

5. Conversion.

25

(a) Conversion Upon Qualified Financing. In the event the Company consummates, prior to the Loan Maturity Date, an equity financing, in one or more closings, pursuant to which it sells shares of its Capital Stock (the “Financing Equity Securities”) for an aggregate consideration of at least $10,000,000 (excluding the aggregate principal and accrued interest due on this Convertible Note and all other convertible notes and simple agreements for future equity, if any, outstanding and issued by the Company as of the Closing Date) and with the principal purpose of raising capital at a pre-money equity valuation of $70,000,000 or greater (a “Qualified Financing”), then, at the option of the Holder, the Holder may, during the 30-day period following its receipt of the Qualified Financing Notice referenced below in this Section 5(a), elect by written notice to the Company specifying the applicable Conversion Amount (which for purposes of this Section 5(a) shall be less any interest on the principal being converted that accrues after the date of notice from the Company concerning the Qualified Financing, through the date of the Holder’s election to convert, not to exceed thirty (30) days) to have this Convertible Note converted upon the closing (or first in a series of closings) of such Qualified Financing. In the event the Holder elects to have this Convertible Note so converted, the Conversion Amount shall convert into such number of shares of Common Stock obtained by dividing (i) the Conversion Amount, by (ii) the Conversion Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share. Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the closing of any Qualified Financing, Company will notify Holder (the “Qualified Financing Notice”) of the approximate Price Per Share at which Financing Equity Securities are being sold in such Qualified Financing, the approximate aggregate consideration (excluding the aggregate principal and accrued interest due on this Convertible Note and all other convertible notes and simple agreements for future equity, if any, outstanding and issued by the Company as of the Closing Date) being paid for such Financing Equity Securities and such other information as may reasonably be required to permit Holder to evaluate the desirability of electing to convert this Convertible Note.

(b) Conversion Upon a Change of Control. If prior to the Loan Maturity Date, there is a Change of Control and this Convertible Note has not previously converted in full, at the option of the Holder, the Holder may, during the 30-day notice period set forth below in this Section 5(b), elect by written notice to the Company specifying the applicable Conversion Amount (which for purposes of this Section 5(b) shall be less any interest on the principal being converted that accrues after the date of notice from the Company concerning the Change of Control, through the date of the Holder’s election to convert, not to exceed thirty days) to have this Convertible Note converted or repaid. In the event the Holder elects to have this Convertible Note so converted (or it is automatically converted as provided below in this Section 5(b)), the Conversion Amount shall be converted into such number of shares of Common Stock of the Company obtained by dividing (A) the Conversion Amount by (B) the Conversion Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share. In the event that the Holder does not make an election within thirty (30) days of receipt of written notice by the Company, this Convertible Note shall be repaid or automatically converted, based upon which alternative would result in the greater amount of consideration payable to the Holder at the closing of the Change of Control (net of escrow and any earn-out or similar provision in the definitive documents by which such Change of Control is consummated), as determined by the Company’s board of directors, in good faith. As a condition precedent (which may be waived by the Company) to conversion of this Convertible Note as provided for in this Section 5(b), Holder hereby agrees to execute and deliver to the Company all transaction documents related to the Change of Control, having the same terms and conditions as those agreements entered into by holders of Common Stock of the Company in connection with such Change of Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holder will not be required to (w) make any representations or warranties materially different than those made by the Company’s other equity security holders, (x) become a party to any non- competition,

26

non-solicitation, or non-disparagement provision or agreement, (y) participate in any indemnification, holdback, escrow or other obligation that does not cap Holder’s aggregate potential liability (excluding liability for fraud) to an amount no greater than the consideration Holder actually receives in the transaction (including any consideration allocated to any holdback or escrow) giving rise to such Change of Control, or (z) provides for anything other than Holder’s several liability (and not joint or joint and several liability) as to claims by the purchaser or acquirer of the Company’s equity securities or assets, or successor by merger (excluding claims based on fraud by the Holder). For avoidance of doubt, this Section 5(b) shall not apply in the case of a SPAC Transaction and shall no longer be applicable at any time after the occurrence of a SPAC Transaction.

(c) Conversion Upon Prepayment. In the event of any proffered pre-payment of this Convertible Note by the Company, Holder shall have the option, exercisable within thirty (30) days of the notice from the Company of intent to pre-pay, to elect by written notice to the Company specifying the applicable Conversion Amount (which for purposes of this Section 5(c) shall be less any interest on the principal being converted that accrues after the date of notice of the Company’s intent to prepay through the date of the Holder’s election to convert, not to exceed thirty days) to have this Convertible Note converted. In the event the Holder elects to have this Convertible Note so converted, the Conversion Amount shall be converted into such number of shares of Common Stock of the Company obtained by dividing (A) the applicable Conversion Amount by (B) the Conversion Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share.

(d) Conversion Following a SPAC Transaction. If the Company completes a SPAC Transaction while this Convertible Note remains outstanding, this Convertible Note shall be assumed by the surviving entity of the SPAC Transaction and its parent entity whose shares are registered in connection with such SPAC Transaction, including, without limitation, by 7GC in the case of the 7GC Combination (collectively, as applicable, the “Combined Company”), and the Holder may elect, at any time and from time to time following the SPAC Transaction, on 5 days’ written notice to the Company (such notice, a “Conversion Notice”), by written notice to the Company specifying the applicable Conversion Amount to convert the Conversion Amount into Common Stock of the Combined Company. In the event the Holder elects to have this Convertible Note so converted, the Conversion Amount shall be converted into such number of shares of Common Stock of the Combined Company obtained by dividing (A) the Conversion Amount by (B) the Conversion Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share (a conversion pursuant to this Section 5(d), a “SPAC Conversion”).

(e) Conversion at Maturity. If this Convertible Note has not otherwise converted in full on or prior to the Loan Maturity Date, then at the Loan Maturity Date, at the option of Holder, the Holder may elect, at any time and from time to time until this Convertible Note has been repaid or converted, by written notice to the Company (or if applicable, the Combined Company) specifying the applicable Conversion Amount to be converted. In the event the Holder elects to have this Convertible Note so converted, the Conversion Amount shall be converted into such number of shares of Common Stock of the Company obtained by dividing (A) the Conversion Amount by (B) the Conversion Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share.

(f) Issuance of Securities upon Conversion. As soon as practicable after conversion of this Convertible Note, the Company, at its expense, will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to Holder, a certificate or certificates representing the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of equity securities to which Holder shall be entitled on such conversion. No fractional shares will be issued on conversion of this Convertible Note. If Holder would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share, Holder may elect to receive a cash payment equal to the Conversion Price multiplied by the fractional share Holder would otherwise be entitled to receive. Without limiting the

generality of the foregoing, at all times after the closing of a SPAC Transaction, the remaining provisions of this Section 5(f) will apply: As soon as practicable after any conversion, and in any event within the Standard Settlement Period thereafter (such date, the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall, at its expense, cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder, or as the Holder may direct, a certificate or book entry evidencing the number of shares of fully paid and non-assessable Common Stock of 7GC to which the Holder shall be entitled on such conversion or payment (the “Conversion Shares”), which certificate or certificates shall be free of restrictive and trading legends (except for any such legends as may be required under the Securities Act.

(g) Withholding Obligations; Form 1099. So long as Holder is a U.S. resident for tax purposes, the Company may not withhold from Holder, or demand cash payment from Holder for, any taxes required to be withheld from Holder on the conversion of this Convertible Note. Holder acknowledges that the Company may issue Holder a Form 1099, reporting the interest, to the Internal Revenue Service (even if the interest is converted into stock), in accordance with applicable law and/or regulations.

(h) Termination of Conversion Rights. Whether or not this Convertible Note has been surrendered for cancellation, all rights with respect to this Convertible Note shall terminate upon the issuance of equity securities upon conversion of this Convertible Note and a new Convertible Note in accordance with Section 5(i) below if applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holder agrees to surrender this Convertible Note to the Company for cancellation as soon as is practicable following conversion of this Convertible Note.

(i) Partial Conversion. Upon any conversion of less than all of the principal and accrued but unpaid interest on this Convertible Note, following any such conversion, the Company shall issue a new Convertible Note to the Holder, in the original principal amount equal to the portion of the principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest, not so converted.

(j) Stockholder Agreements. As a condition precedent (which may be waived by the Company) to conversion of this Convertible Note, the Holder agrees to execute and be bound by the Company’s Voting Agreement and Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement, each dated as of February 20, 2020 (as they may be amended and/or restated from time to time), and any other stockholders or similar agreement to which holders of the Company’s Common Stock are then party (collectively, the “Stockholder Agreements”), provided that such agreement(s) does not contain any non-competition or non-solicitation provision or agreement. As a further condition precedent (which may be waived by the Holder) to conversion of this Convertible Note, the Holder shall be entitled to become a party to the IRA affording Holder such information and piggyback registration rights and privileges (and associated obligations) afforded to “Investors” thereunder (including any such rights and privileges (and associated obligations) afforded a “Major Investor”, if Holder satisfies the applicable minimum ownership thresholds). This Section 5(j) shall no longer be applicable after the closing of a SPAC Transaction.

(k) Registration Rights. On or prior to the closing of a SPAC Conversion, the Company shall (and shall cause the Combined Company including, in the case of the 7GC Combination, 7GC) to enter into the Registration Rights Agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Holder (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Combined Company (or 7GC in the case of the 7GC Combination) will, among other things, file a resale registration statement (a “Resale Registration Statement”) covering the sale of any and all Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note. The Company will cause the Registration Rights Agreement to be filed as an exhibit to the registration statement on Form S-4 filed in connection with any SPAC Transaction,

28

(l) Limits on Conversion. The Company shall not effect a SPAC Conversion of all or a portion of the Note to the extent that, after giving effect to the issuance of Common Stock of the Combined Company following Conversion, Holder (together with its affiliates and any other person or entity acting as a group together with Holder or any of its Affiliates (collectively, the “ColPac Parties”)), would beneficially own Common Stock of the Combined Company (“Public Shares”) in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of Public Shares beneficially owned by Holder and its Concert Parties shall include the number of Public Shares beneficially owned by Holder and such Public Shares issuable upon conversion of the portion of the Note with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of Public Shares which would be issuable upon conversion of the remaining portion of the Note beneficially owned by Holder. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 5(l), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by Holder that the Company is not representing to Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 5(l) applies, the determination of whether and the extent to which a Note may be converted (in relation to other loans or securities owned by Holder together with any Affiliates) shall be made in good faith by Holder holding such Note in consultation with its own counsel. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 5(l), in determining the number of outstanding Public Shares, Holder may rely on the number of outstanding Public Shares as reflected in (x) the Company’s (or its successor’s) most recent periodic or annual report, as the case may be, filed with the SEC, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company (or its successor) or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent (or its successor or successor’s transfer agent) setting forth the number of Public Shares outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of Holder, the Company shall within two Business Days confirm orally and in writing to Holder the number of Public Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of Public Shares outstanding shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of loans or securities of the Company, including the Note, by Holder or the ColPac Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding Public Shares was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall initially be 19.99% of the number of Public Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the applicable portion of the Note; provided, that with respect to any Holder other than the Purchaser and its Affiliates, the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 9.99% of the number of Public Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the applicable portion of the Note. If any Public Shares otherwise due upon the conversion of the Note are not delivered as a result of this Section 5(l), then the Company’s obligation to deliver such Public Shares will not be extinguished, and the Company will deliver such Public Shares as soon as reasonably practicable after the applicable Holder provides written confirmation to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company that such delivery will not contravene the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. Any purported delivery of Public Shares upon conversion of the Note will be void and have no effect to the extent, and only to the extent, that such delivery would contravene the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The provisions of this Section 5(l) shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms hereof in order to correct such terms (or any portion thereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained.

29

6. Adjustments to Conversion Price. Upon any of the following events, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted, in accordance with the provisions set forth below, and the Company shall deliver to Holder a written statement, identifying the new Conversion Price, and providing reasonable supporting detail for the determination of such new Conversion Price.

(a) If the Company (or after a SPAC Transaction, the Combined Company) shall at any time or from time to time after the date of this Convertible Note effect a subdivision of the outstanding Capital Stock (determined on an as-converted-to- common basis), the Conversion Price in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of this Convertible Note shall be increased in proportion to such increase in the aggregate number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding (determined on an as-converted-to-common basis). If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the date of this Convertible Note combine the outstanding shares of Capital Stock (determined on an as-converted-to-common basis), the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of this Convertible Note shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in the aggregate number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding (determined on an as-converted-to-common basis). Any adjustment under this Section 6(a) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

(b) In the event the Company (or after a SPAC Transaction, the Combined Company) at any time or from time to time after the date of this Convertible Note shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Capital Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable on the Capital Stock in additional shares of Capital Stock, then and in each such event the Conversion Price in effect immediately before such event shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying such Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction:

(i) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Capital Stock (determined on an as-converted-to-common basis) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and

(ii) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Capital Stock (determined on an as-converted-to-common basis) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Capital Stock (determined on an as-converted-to-common basis) issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, such Conversion Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter such Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 6(b) as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions.

(c) In the event the Company (or after a SPAC Transaction, the Combined Company) at any time or from time to time after the date of this Convertible Note shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Capital Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Company (other than a distribution of shares of Capital Stock in respect of outstanding shares of Capital Stock), then and in each such event the Holder shall be entitled receive, upon conversion of this Convertible Note, a dividend or other distribution of each such securities in an amount equal to the amount of such securities as the Holder would have received if all outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest had been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event, in accordance with the provisions of this Convertible Note.

30

(d) If, at any time or from time to time after the date of this Convertible Note, the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of this Convertible Note is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock of the Company, whether by recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise (other than by a stock split or combination, dividend, distribution, merger or consolidation covered by Sections 6(a), (b), (c), or (e)), then in any such event the Holder shall have the right thereafter to convert this Convertible Note into the kind and amount of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other change by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Convertible Note could have been converted immediately prior to such recapitalization, reclassification or change.

(e) Subject to the provisions of Section 5(b), if there shall occur any consolidation or merger involving the Company (or after a SPAC Transaction, the Combined Company) in which the Common Stock is converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property (other than a transaction covered by Sections 6(b), (c), or (d)), then, following any such consolidation or merger, provision shall be made that this Convertible Note shall thereafter be convertible in lieu of the Common Stock into which it was convertible prior to such event into the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company (or after a SPAC Transaction, the Combined Company) issuable upon conversion of this Convertible Note immediately prior to such consolidation or merger would have been entitled to receive pursuant to such transaction; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions in this Section 6 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder, to the end that the provisions set forth in this Section 6 shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of this Convertible Note.

(f) At all times after a SPAC Transaction, the Conversion Price shall, subject to any other adjustments set forth in this Section 6, be equal to the Conversion Price at the closing of the 7GC Combination, divided by the Exchange Ratio (as defined in the 7GC Merger Agreement).

Notwithstanding anything else in this Section 17 to the contrary, the Company may cease providing the information set forth in this Section 17 during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days before the Company’s good-faith estimate of the date of filing of a registration statement if it reasonably concludes it must do so to comply with the SEC rules applicable to such registration statement and related offering; provided that the Company’s covenants under this Section 17 shall be reinstated at such time as the Company is no longer actively employing its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective.

18. Governing Law.

In the event the Company consummates, prior to the Loan Maturity Date, an equity financing, in one or more closings, pursuant to which it sells shares of its Capital Stock (the “Financing Equity Securities”) for an aggregate consideration of at least $10,000,000 (excluding the aggregate principal and accrued interest due on this Convertible Note and all other convertible notes and simple agreements for future equity, if any, outstanding and issued by the Company as of the Closing Date) and with the principal purpose of raising capital at a pre-money equity valuation of $70,000,000 or greater (a “Qualified Financing”), then, at the option of the Holder, the Holder may, during the 30-day period following its receipt of the Qualified Financing Notice referenced below in this Section 5(a), elect by written notice to the Company specifying the applicable Conversion Amount (which for purposes of this Section 5(a) shall be less any interest on the principal being converted that accrues after the date of notice from the Company concerning the Qualified Financing, through the date of the Holder’s election to convert, not to exceed thirty (30) days) to have this Convertible Note converted upon the closing (or first in a series of closings) of such Qualified Financing. In the event the Holder elects to have this Convertible Note so converted, the Conversion Amount shall convert into such number of shares of Common Stock obtained by dividing (i) the Conversion Amount, by (ii) the Conversion Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share. Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the closing of any Qualified Financing, Company will notify Holder (the “Qualified Financing Notice”) of the approximate Price Per Share at which Financing Equity Securities are being sold in such Qualified Financing, the approximate aggregate consideration (excluding the aggregate principal and accrued interest due on this Convertible Note and all other convertible notes and simple agreements for future equity, if any, outstanding and issued by the Company as of the Closing Date) being paid for such Financing Equity Securities and such other information as may reasonably be required to permit Holder to evaluate the desirability of electing to convert this Convertible Note.

(b) Conversion Upon a Change of Control. If prior to the Loan Maturity Date, there is a Change of Control and this Convertible Note has not previously converted in full, at the option of the Holder, the Holder may, during the 30-day notice period set forth below in this Section 5(b), elect by written notice to the Company specifying the applicable Conversion Amount (which for purposes of this Section 5(b) shall be less any interest on the principal being converted that accrues after the date of notice from the Company concerning the Change of Control, through the date of the Holder’s election to convert, not to exceed thirty days) to have this Convertible Note converted or repaid. In the event the Holder elects to have this Convertible Note so converted (or it is automatically converted as provided below in this Section 5(b)), the Conversion Amount shall be converted into such number of shares of Common Stock of the Company obtained by dividing (A) the Conversion Amount by (B) the Conversion Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share. In the event that the Holder does not make an election within thirty (30) days of receipt of written notice by the Company, this Convertible Note shall be repaid or automatically converted, based upon which alternative would result in the greater amount of consideration payable to the Holder at the closing of the Change of Control (net of escrow and any earn-out or similar provision in the definitive documents by which such Change of Control is consummated), as determined by the Company’s board of directors, in good faith. As a condition precedent (which may be waived by the Company) to conversion of this Convertible Note as provided for in this Section 5(b), Holder hereby agrees to execute and deliver to the Company all transaction documents related to the Change of Control, having the same terms and conditions as those agreements entered into by holders of Common Stock of the Company in connection with such Change of Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holder will not be required to (w) make any representations or warranties materially different

40

than those made by the Company’s other equity security holders, (x) become a party to any non-competition, non-solicitation, or non-disparagement provision or agreement, (y) participate in any indemnification, holdback, escrow or other obligation that does not cap Holder’s aggregate potential liability (excluding liability for fraud) to an amount no greater than the consideration Holder actually receives in the transaction (including any consideration allocated to any holdback or escrow) giving rise to such Change of Control, or (z) provides for anything other than Holder’s several liability (and not joint or joint and several liability) as to claims by the purchaser or acquirer of the Company’s equity securities or assets, or successor by merger (excluding claims based on fraud by the Holder). For avoidance of doubt, this Section 5(b) shall not apply in the case of a SPAC Transaction and shall no longer be applicable at any time after the occurrence of a SPAC Transaction.

(c) Conversion Upon Prepayment. In the event of any proffered pre-payment of this Convertible Note by the Company, Holder shall have the option, exercisable within thirty (30) days of the notice from the Company of intent to pre-pay, to elect by written notice to the Company specifying the applicable Conversion Amount (which for purposes of this Section 5(c) shall be less any interest on the principal being converted that accrues after the date of notice of the Company’s intent to prepay through the date of the Holder’s election to convert, not to exceed thirty days) to have this Convertible Note converted. In the event the Holder elects to have this Convertible Note so converted, the Conversion Amount shall be converted into such number of shares of Common Stock of the Company obtained by dividing (A) the applicable Conversion Amount by (B) the Conversion Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share.

(d) Conversion Following a SPAC Transaction. If the Company completes a SPAC Transaction while this Convertible Note remains outstanding, this Convertible Note shall be assumed by the surviving entity of the SPAC Transaction and its parent entity whose shares are registered in connection with such SPAC Transaction, including, without limitation, by 7GC in the case of the 7GC Combination (collectively, as applicable, the “Combined Company”), and the Holder may elect, at any time and from time to time following the SPAC Transaction, on 5 days’ written notice to the Company (such notice, a “Conversion Notice”), by written notice to the Company specifying the applicable Conversion Amount to convert the Conversion Amount into Common Stock of the Combined Company. In the event the Holder elects to have this Convertible Note so converted, the Conversion Amount shall be converted into such number of shares of Common Stock of the Combined Company obtained by dividing (A) the Conversion Amount by (B) the Conversion Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share (a conversion pursuant to this Section 5(d), a “SPAC Conversion”).

(e) Conversion at Maturity. If this Convertible Note has not otherwise converted in full on or prior to the Loan Maturity Date, then at the Loan Maturity Date, at the option of Holder, the Holder may elect, at any time and from time to time until this Convertible Note has been repaid or converted, by written notice to the Company (or if applicable, the Combined Company) specifying the applicable Conversion Amount to be converted. In the event the Holder elects to have this Convertible Note so converted, the Conversion Amount shall be converted into such number of shares of Common Stock of the Company obtained by dividing (A) the Conversion Amount by (B) the Conversion Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share.

(f) Issuance of Securities upon Conversion. As soon as practicable after conversion of this Convertible Note, the Company, at its expense, will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to Holder, a certificate or certificates representing the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of equity securities to which Holder shall be entitled on such conversion. No fractional shares will be issued on conversion of this Convertible Note. If Holder would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share, Holder may elect to receive a cash payment equal to the Conversion Price

41

multiplied by the fractional share Holder would otherwise be entitled to receive. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at all times after the closing of a SPAC Transaction, the remaining provisions of this Section 5(f) will apply: As soon as practicable after any conversion, and in any event within the Standard Settlement Period thereafter (such date, the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall, at its expense, cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder, or as the Holder may direct, a certificate or book entry evidencing the number of shares of fully paid and non-assessable Common Stock of 7GC to which the Holder shall be entitled on such conversion or payment (the “Conversion Shares”), which certificate or certificates shall be free of restrictive and trading legends (except for any such legends as may be required under the Securities Act.

(g) Withholding Obligations; Form 1099. So long as Holder is a U.S. resident for tax purposes, the Company may not withhold from Holder, or demand cash payment from Holder for, any taxes required to be withheld from Holder on the conversion of this Convertible Note. Holder acknowledges that the Company may issue Holder a Form 1099, reporting the interest, to the Internal Revenue Service (even if the interest is converted into stock), in accordance with applicable law and/or regulations.

(h) Termination of Conversion Rights. Whether or not this Convertible Note has been surrendered for cancellation, all rights with respect to this Convertible Note shall terminate upon the issuance of equity securities upon conversion of this Convertible Note and a new Convertible Note in accordance with Section 5(i) below if applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holder agrees to surrender this Convertible Note to the Company for cancellation as soon as is practicable following conversion of this Convertible Note.

(i) Partial Conversion. Upon any conversion of less than all of the principal and accrued but unpaid interest on this Convertible Note, following any such conversion, the Company shall issue a new Convertible Note to the Holder, in the original principal amount equal to the portion of the principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest, not so converted.

(j) Stockholder Agreements. As a condition precedent (which may be waived by the Company) to conversion of this Convertible Note, the Holder agrees to execute and be bound by the Company’s Voting Agreement and Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement, each dated as of February 20, 2020 (as they may be amended and/or restated from time to time), and any other stockholders or similar agreement to which holders of the Company’s Common Stock are then party (collectively, the “Stockholder Agreements”), provided that such agreement(s) does not contain any non-competition or non-solicitation provision or agreement. As a further condition precedent (which may be waived by the Holder) to conversion of this Convertible Note, the Holder shall be entitled to become a party to the IRA affording Holder such information and piggyback registration rights and privileges (and associated obligations) afforded to “Investors” thereunder (including any such rights and privileges (and associated obligations) afforded a “Major Investor”, if Holder satisfies the applicable minimum ownership thresholds). This Section 5(j) shall no longer be applicable after the closing of a SPAC Transaction.

(k) Registration Rights. On or prior to the closing of a SPAC Conversion, the Company shall (and shall cause the Combined Company including, in the case of the 7GC Combination, 7GC) to enter into the Registration Rights Agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Holder (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Combined Company (or 7GC in the case of the 7GC Combination) will, among other things, file a resale registration statement (a “Resale Registration Statement”) covering the sale of any and all Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note. The Company will cause the Registration Rights Agreement to be filed as an exhibit to the registration statement on Form S-4 filed in connection with any SPAC Transaction,

42

(l) Limits on Conversion. The Company shall not effect a SPAC Conversion of all or a portion of the Note to the extent that, after giving effect to the issuance of Common Stock of the Combined Company following Conversion, Holder (together with its affiliates and any other person or entity acting as a group together with Holder or any of its Affiliates (collectively, the “ColPac Parties”)), would beneficially own Common Stock of the Combined Company (“Public Shares”) in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of Public Shares beneficially owned by Holder and its Concert Parties shall include the number of Public Shares beneficially owned by Holder and such Public Shares issuable upon conversion of the portion of the Note with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of Public Shares which would be issuable upon conversion of the remaining portion of the Note beneficially owned by Holder. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 5(l), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by Holder that the Company is not representing to Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 5(l) applies, the determination of whether and the extent to which a Note may be converted (in relation to other loans or securities owned by Holder together with any Affiliates) shall be made in good faith by Holder holding such Note in consultation with its own counsel. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 5(l), in determining the number of outstanding Public Shares, Holder may rely on the number of outstanding Public Shares as reflected in (x) the Company’s (or its successor’s) most recent periodic or annual report, as the case may be, filed with the SEC, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company (or its successor) or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent (or its successor or successor’s transfer agent) setting forth the number of Public Shares outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of Holder, the Company shall within two Business Days confirm orally and in writing to Holder the number of Public Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of Public Shares outstanding shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of loans or securities of the Company, including the Note, by Holder or the ColPac Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding Public Shares was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall initially be 19.99% of the number of Public Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the applicable portion of the Note; provided, that with respect to any Holder other than the Purchaser and its Affiliates, the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 9.99% of the number of Public Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the applicable portion of the Note. If any Public Shares otherwise due upon the conversion of the Note are not delivered as a result of this Section 5(l), then the Company’s obligation to deliver such Public Shares will not be extinguished, and the Company will deliver such Public Shares as soon as reasonably practicable after the applicable Holder provides written confirmation to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company that such delivery will not contravene the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. Any purported delivery of Public Shares upon conversion of the Note will be void and have no effect to the extent, and only to the extent, that such delivery would contravene the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The provisions of this Section 5(l) shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms hereof in order to correct such terms (or any portion thereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained.

43

24. Adjustments to Conversion Price. Upon any of the following events, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted, in accordance with the provisions set forth below, and the Company shall deliver to Holder a written statement, identifying the new Conversion Price, and providing reasonable supporting detail for the determination of such new Conversion Price.

(a) If the Company (or after a SPAC Transaction, the Combined Company) shall at any time or from time to time after the date of this Convertible Note effect a subdivision of the outstanding Capital Stock (determined on an as-converted-to- common basis), the Conversion Price in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of this Convertible Note shall be increased in proportion to such increase in the aggregate number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding (determined on an as-converted-to-common basis). If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the date of this Convertible Note combine the outstanding shares of Capital Stock (determined on an as-converted-to-common basis), the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of this Convertible Note shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in the aggregate number of shares of Capital Stock outstanding (determined on an as-converted-to-common basis). Any adjustment under this Section 6(a) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

(b) In the event the Company (or after a SPAC Transaction, the Combined Company) at any time or from time to time after the date of this Convertible Note shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Capital Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable on the Capital Stock in additional shares of Capital Stock, then and in each such event the Conversion Price in effect immediately before such event shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying such Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction:

(i) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Capital Stock (determined on an as-converted-to-common basis) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and

(ii) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Capital Stock (determined on an as-converted-to-common basis) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Capital Stock (determined on an as-converted-to-common basis) issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, such Conversion Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter such Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 6(b) as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions.

(c) In the event the Company (or after a SPAC Transaction, the Combined Company) at any time or from time to time after the date of this Convertible Note shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Capital Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Company (other than a distribution of shares of Capital Stock in respect of outstanding shares of Capital Stock), then and in each such event the Holder shall be entitled receive, upon conversion of this Convertible Note, a dividend or other distribution of each such securities in an amount equal to the amount of such securities as the Holder would have received if all outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest had been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event, in accordance with the provisions of this Convertible Note.

44

(d) If, at any time or from time to time after the date of this Convertible Note, the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of this Convertible Note is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock of the Company, whether by recapitalization, reclassification or otherwise (other than by a stock split or combination, dividend, distribution, merger or consolidation covered by Sections 6(a), (b), (c), or (e)), then in any such event the Holder shall have the right thereafter to convert this Convertible Note into the kind and amount of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other change by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Convertible Note could have been converted immediately prior to such recapitalization, reclassification or change.

(e) Subject to the provisions of Section 5(b), if there shall occur any consolidation or merger involving the Company (or after a SPAC Transaction, the Combined Company) in which the Common Stock is converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property (other than a transaction covered by Sections 6(b), (c), or (d)), then, following any such consolidation or merger, provision shall be made that this Convertible Note shall thereafter be convertible in lieu of the Common Stock into which it was convertible prior to such event into the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company (or after a SPAC Transaction, the Combined Company) issuable upon conversion of this Convertible Note immediately prior to such consolidation or merger would have been entitled to receive pursuant to such transaction; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions in this Section 6 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Holder, to the end that the provisions set forth in this Section 6 shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of this Convertible Note.

(f) At all times after a SPAC Transaction, the Conversion Price shall, subject to any other adjustments set forth in this Section 6, be equal to the Conversion Price at the closing of the 7GC Combination, divided by the Exchange Ratio (as defined in the 7GC Merger Agreement).

25. Representations and Warranties of the Company. In addition to the other representations and warranties contained in the Loan Agreement, the Company makes the following representations and warranties to the Holder as of the date appearing on the signature page of this Convertible Note:

All issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock (as defined in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the “Charter”)) of the Company have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable, and were issued in material compliance with all federal and state securities laws.

45

(b) Actions Necessary to Convert Notes. Subject to Section 5(e), the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Holder’s rights hereunder, when issued in accordance with the provisions of this Convertible Note on its conversion, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and will be free of any taxes, liens, charges or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever; provided, that the Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Convertible Note on its conversion may be subject to restrictions on transfer under the Stockholder Agreements or under state and/or federal securities laws. The Company has made available to Holder true, correct and complete copies of its Charter and current bylaws.

(c) Consents and Approvals. No consent or approval of, giving of notice to, registration with, or taking of any other action in respect of any state, federal or other governmental authority or agency is required with respect to the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of its obligations under this Convertible Note and the conversion of the Convertible Note into Common Stock, except for the filing of notices pursuant to Regulation D under the Act and any filing required by applicable state securities law, which filings will be effective by the time required thereby.

(d) Exempt Transaction. Subject to the accuracy of Holder’s representations in the Loan Agreement, the issuance of the Common Stock upon conversion of this Convertible Note constitute a transaction exempt from (i) the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act, in reliance upon Section 4(2) thereof, and (ii) the qualification requirements of the applicable state securities laws.

Upon receipt of any report calculating a new 409A valuation, the Company shall promptly, but in any event within thirty (30) days, email a copy of such report to Holder at the notice address provided in the Loan Agreement.

26. Successors and Assigns. Subject to the restrictions on transfer described in Sections 10 and 11 below, the rights and obligations of the Company and Holder shall be binding upon and benefit the successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees of the parties.

27. Waiver and Amendment. Any provision of this Convertible Note may be amended, waived or modified upon the written consent of the Company and the Holder.

28. Transfer of this Convertible Note or Securities Issuable on Conversion Hereof. This Section 10 shall not be applicable in connection with a SPAC Transaction or at any time after completion of a SPAC Transaction. With respect to any offer, sale or other disposition of this Convertible Note or securities into which this Convertible Note may be converted, Holder will give written notice to the Company prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof, together with a written opinion of Holder’s counsel, or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such offer, sale or other distribution may be effected without registration or qualification (under any federal or state law then in effect). Upon receiving such written notice and reasonably satisfactory opinion, the Company, as promptly as practicable, shall notify Holder that Holder may sell or otherwise dispose of this Convertible Note or such securities, all in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the Company. If a determination has been made pursuant to this Section 10 that the opinion of counsel for Holder, or other evidence, is not reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Company shall so notify Holder promptly after such determination has been made. Each Convertible Note thus transferred and each certificate representing the securities thus transferred shall bear a legend as to the applicable

46

restrictions on transferability in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act, unless in the opinion of counsel for the Company such legend is not required in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act. The Company may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such restrictions. Subject to the foregoing, transfers of this Convertible Note shall be registered upon registration books maintained for such purpose by or on behalf of the Company. Prior to presentation of this Convertible Note for registration of transfer, the Company shall treat the registered Holder hereof as the owner and Holder of this Convertible Note for the purpose of receiving all payments of principal and interest hereon and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not this Convertible Note shall be overdue and the Company shall not be affected by notice to the contrary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at all times prior to the Company’s initial underwritten public offering and sale of its common stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act (“IPO”), Holder (or subsequent Holder, as applicable) may not, without the Company’s prior written consent, transfer this Convertible Note or any portion hereof, or any shares of Capital Stock issued upon any conversion hereof, to any person or entity who directly competes with the Company, except in connection with an acquisition of the Company by such a direct competitor.

29. Assignment by the Company. Neither this Convertible Note nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned, by operation of law or otherwise, in whole or in part, by the Company without the prior written consent of Holder, which may be withheld in its sole and absolute discretion.

30. No Stockholder Rights until Converted. This Convertible Note, prior to its conversion, shall not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or any other rights as a stockholder of the Company or to any other rights except the rights stated herein. The conversion rights under this Convertible Note shall be deemed to have been exercised and the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have been issued immediately prior to the close of business on the date this Convertible Note is converted in accordance with its terms, and the person entitled to receive the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record of such Common Stock as of the close of business on such date, and, as promptly as reasonably practicable on or after such date, but in no event greater than ten (10) Business Days if the Common Stock is not traded on any securities exchange or two (2) Business Days if the Common Stock is traded on any securities exchange, the Company shall deliver a certificate evidencing such Common Stock and cause appropriate book entries to be made in its records to reflect the same.

31. Notices. All notices, requests, demands, consents, instructions or other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be delivered in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement.

33. Waivers. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Company hereby waives notice of default, presentment or demand for payment, protest or notice of nonpayment or dishonor and all other notices or demands relative to this instrument.

34. No Impairment of Rights. The Company will not, by amendment of its Charter or through any other means, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Convertible Note, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of Holder against impairment.

47

35. Information Rights; Confidentiality. Upon conversion of this Convertible Note, and for as long as Holder holds the Common Stock issued upon conversion hereof, the Company shall deliver Holder the Company’s quarterly financial statements and a current capitalization table within 45 days after the end of each fiscal quarter, and its annual financial statements within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year; provided, in each case, that such Holder shall be subject to the same confidentiality obligations set forth in the Loan Agreement as to such information, which confidentiality undertakings are incorporated herein by this reference, mutatis mutandis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no separate obligation hereunder to deliver to Holder any information (i) the substantial equivalent of which shall have been provided to Holder pursuant to the Loan Agreement or the IRA (if Holder is a party thereto) (for the avoidance of doubt, this Section 17 shall not be in derogation of any greater information rights to which the Holder is entitled to under the Loan Agreement or the IRA), or (ii) after an IPO or SPAC Transaction. Notwithstanding anything else in this Section 17 to the contrary, the Company may cease providing the information set forth in this Section 17 during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days before the Company’s good-faith estimate of the date of filing of a registration statement if it reasonably concludes it must do so to comply with the SEC rules applicable to such registration statement and related offering; provided that the Company’s covenants under this Section 17 shall be reinstated at such time as the Company is no longer actively employing its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective.

36. Governing Law. This Convertible Note and all actions arising out of or in connection with this Convertible Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions of the State of Delaware, or of any other state.

REGISTRATIONS

2.1 Shelf Registration.

2.1.1 Initial Registration. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to, as promptly as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the Closing (the “Filing Deadline”), file a Form S-1 Registration Statement under the Securities Act to permit the public resale of all the Registrable Securities held by the Holders (and certain other outstanding equity securities of the Company) from time to time as permitted by Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar provision adopted by the Commission then in effect) (“Rule 415”) on the terms and conditions specified in this subsection 2.1.1 and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective as promptly as

54

reasonably practicable after the initial filing thereof, but in no event later than sixty (60) business days following the Filing Deadline (the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, that the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to one hundred and twenty (120) days after the Filing Deadline if the Registration Statement is reviewed by, and receives comments from, the Commission. The Registration Statement filed with the Commission pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 shall be on a Form S-1 Registration Statement or such other form of registration statement as is then available to effect a registration for resale of such Registrable Securities, covering such Registrable Securities, and shall contain a Prospectus in such form as to permit any Holder to sell such Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415 at any time beginning on the effective date for such Registration Statement. A Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 shall provide for the resale pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and reasonably requested prior to effectiveness by, the Holders. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 to remain effective, and to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available or, if not available, that another Registration Statement is available, for the resale of all the Registrable Securities held by the Holders until all such Registrable Securities have ceased to be Registrable Securities. When effective, a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 (including the documents incorporated therein by reference) will comply as to form in all material respects with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of any Prospectus contained in such Registration Statement, in the light of the circumstances under which such statement is made).

2.1.2 Form S-3 Shelf. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to convert the Form S-1 Registration Statement to a Form S-3 Shelf as soon as practicable after the Company is eligible to use a Form S-3 Shelf. If the Company files a Form S-3 Shelf and thereafter the Company becomes ineligible to use Form S-3 for secondary sales, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file a Form S-1 Registration Statement as promptly as reasonably practicable to replace the shelf registration statement that is a Form S-3 Shelf and have the Form S-1 Registration Statement declared effective as promptly as reasonably practicable and to cause such Form S-1 Registration Statement to remain effective, and to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available or, if not available, that another Registration Statement is available, for the resale of all the Registrable Securities held by the Holders until all such Registrable Securities have ceased to be Registrable Securities.

2.1.3 Underwritten Offering. At any time and from time to time following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement required by subsections 2.1.1 or 2.1.2, any Holder may request to sell all or a portion of their Registrable Securities (a “Demanding Holder”) in an underwritten offering that is registered pursuant to such Registration Statement (an “Underwritten Demand”), provided that such Holder(s) (a) reasonably expect aggregate gross proceeds in excess of $50,000,000 from such Underwritten Offering or (b) reasonably expects to sell all of the Registrable Securities held by such Holder in such Underwritten Offering but in no event less than $10,000,000 in aggregate gross proceeds. All requests for an Underwritten Offering shall be made by giving written notice to the Company (the “Underwritten Demand Notice”). Each Underwritten Demand Notice shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Offering and the expected price range (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) of such Underwritten Offering. Within five (5) business days after receipt of any Underwritten Demand Notice, the Company shall give written notice of such requested Underwritten Offering (the “Company Underwritten Demand Notice”) to all other Holders of Registrable Securities (the “Requesting Holders”) and, subject to reductions consistent with the Pro Rata calculations in subsection 2.1.5, shall include in such Underwritten Offering all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein, within five (5) days after sending the Company Underwritten Demand Notice. The Company shall enter into an underwriting agreement in a form as is customary in Underwritten Offerings of securities by the Company with the managing Underwriter or Underwriters selected by the initiating Demanding Holders with the written consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and shall take all such other reasonable actions as are requested by the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of

55

such Registrable Securities. In connection with any Underwritten Offering contemplated by this subsection 2.1.3, subject to Section 3.3 and Article IV, the underwriting agreement into which each Holder and the Company shall enter shall contain such representations and warranties, covenants, indemnities and other rights and obligations of the Company and such Holders as are customary in underwritten offerings of securities. Under no circumstances shall the Company be obligated to effect (x) more than an aggregate of three (3) Underwritten Offerings pursuant to an Underwritten Demand by the Holders under this subsection 2.1.3 with respect to any or all Registrable Securities held by such Holders and (y) more than two (2) Underwritten Offerings per year pursuant to this subsection 2.1.3; provided, however, that an Underwritten Offering pursuant to an Underwritten Demand shall not be counted for such purposes unless a Registration Statement that may be available at such time has become effective and all of the Registrable Securities requested by the Requesting Holders and the Demanding Holders to be registered on behalf of the Requesting Holders and the Demanding Holders in such Registration Statement have been sold, in accordance with Section 3.1 of this Agreement.

2.1.4 Holder Information Required for Participation in Underwritten Offering. At least ten (10) business days prior to the first anticipated filing date of a Registration Statement pursuant to this Article II, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to notify each Holder in writing (which may be by email) of the information reasonably necessary about the Holder to include such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to include such Holder’s Registrable Securities to the extent the Company has not received such information, and received any other reasonably requested agreements or certificates, on or prior to the fifth business day prior to the first anticipated filing date of a Registration Statement pursuant to this Article II.

2.1.5 Reduction of Underwritten Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Offering, in good faith, advises the Company, the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) desire to sell, taken together with all other Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell and the Common Stock, if any, as to which a Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by any other stockholders who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten Offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Securities”), then the Company shall include in such Underwritten Offering, as follows: (i) first, the Registrable Securities of the Demanding Holders (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Demanding Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders have requested be included in such Underwritten Registration (such proportion is referred to herein as “Pro Rata”)) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Registrable Securities of Requesting Holders (Pro Rata, based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Requesting Holder has so requested) exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.1.3 hereof, without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (iv) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the Common Stock or other equity securities of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register in a Registration pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

2.1.6 Underwritten Offering Withdrawal. A majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating an Underwritten Demand or a majority-in-interest of the Requesting Holders (if any), pursuant to a Registration under subsection 2.1.3 shall have the right to withdraw from a Registration pursuant to an Underwritten Offering

56

pursuant to subsection 2.1.3 for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of their intention to withdraw from such Registration at least five (5) business days prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to the Registration of their Registrable Securities pursuant to such Underwritten Offering (or in the case of an Underwritten Registration pursuant to Rule 415, at least five (5) business days prior to the time of pricing of the applicable offering). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Registration pursuant to an Underwritten Offering prior to its withdrawal under this subsection 2.1.6.

2.2 Piggyback Registration.

2.2.1 Piggyback Rights. If, at any time on or after the Closing, the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into, equity securities, for its own account or for the account of stockholders of the Company (or by the Company and by the stockholders of the Company, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof), other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) for a rights offering or an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing stockholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company or (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, then the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but not less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement, which notice shall (A) describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, in such offering, and (B) offer to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities the opportunity to register the sale of such number of Registrable Securities as such Holders may request in writing within five (5) days after receipt of such written notice (such Registration a “Piggyback Registration”). The Company shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggyback Registration and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested by the Holders pursuant to this subsection 2.2.1 to be included in a Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company included in such Registration and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an Underwritten Offering under this subsection 2.2.1 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the Company.

2.2.2 Reduction of Piggyback Registration. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Registration that is to be a Piggyback Registration, in good faith, advises the Company and the Holders of Registrable Securities participating in the Piggyback Registration in writing that the dollar amount or number of the shares of Common Stock that the Company desires to sell, taken together with (i) the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which Registration has been demanded pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, (ii) the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof, and (iii) the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other stockholders of the Company, exceeds the Maximum Number of Securities, then:

(a) If the Registration is undertaken for the Company’s account, the Company shall include in any such Registration (A) first, the Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.2.1 hereof, Pro Rata, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (C) third, to the extent that the

57

Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Common Stock, if any, as to which Registration has been requested or demanded pursuant to written contractual Piggyback Registration rights of other stockholders of the Company, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities;

(b) If the Registration is pursuant to a request by persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, then the Company shall include in any such Registration (A) first, the Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, of such requesting persons or entities, other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.2.1, Pro Rata, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the Common Stock or other equity securities for the account of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons or entities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

2.2.3 Piggyback Registration Withdrawal. Any Holder of Registrable Securities shall have the right to withdraw from a Piggyback Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of his, her or its intention to withdraw from such Piggyback Registration at least five (5) business days prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Piggyback Registration (or in the case of an Underwritten Registration pursuant to Rule 415, at least five (5) business days prior to the time of pricing of the applicable offering). The Company (whether on its own good faith determination or as the result of a request for withdrawal by persons pursuant to separate written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement filed with the Commission in connection with a Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the Piggyback Registration prior to its withdrawal under this subsection 2.2.3.

2.2.4 Unlimited Piggyback Registration Rights. For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof shall not be counted as a Registration pursuant to an Underwritten Offering effected under subsection 2.1.3.

2.3 Restrictions on Registration Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not be obligated to (but may, at its sole option) (A) effect an Underwritten Offering (i) within sixty (60) days after the closing of an Underwritten Offering, or (ii) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on a date one hundred and twenty (120) days after the effective date of, a Company-initiated Registration and provided that the Company has delivered written notice to the Holders prior to receipt of an Underwritten Demand pursuant to subsection 2.1.3 and it continues to actively employ, in good faith, all reasonable best efforts to cause the applicable Registration Statement to become effective or (B) file a Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or effect an Underwritten Offering (or, if the Company has filed a shelf Registration Statement and has included Registrable Securities therein, the Company shall be entitled to suspend the offer and sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement) for a period of up to forty-five (45) days (i) if the Holders have requested an Underwritten Demand and the Company and the Holders are unable to obtain the commitment of Underwriters to firmly underwrite the offer; or (ii) in the good faith judgment of the Board such Underwritten Offering would be materially detrimental to the Company and the Board concludes as a result that it is essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement at such time, provided that in each case of (i) and (ii) the

58

Company shall furnish to such Holders a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be materially detrimental to the Company for such Registration Statement to be filed in the near future and that it is therefore essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement and provided, further, that the Company shall not defer its obligation in this manner more than once in any 12 month period.

3.3 Requirements for Participation in Underwritten Offerings.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any Holder does not provide to the Company in writing information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any Registration Statement or Prospectus, the Company may exclude such Holder’s Registrable Securities from the applicable Registration Statement or Prospectus if the Company determines, based on the advice of outside legal counsel, that such information is necessary to effect the registration and such Holder continues thereafter to withhold such information. For the avoidance of doubt, the exclusion of a Holder’s Registrable Securities as a result of this Section 3.3 shall not affect the registration of the other Registrable Securities to be included in such Registration.

3.4 Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until it has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood that the Company hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as practicable after the time of such notice), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company’s control, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than forty-five (45) days, determined in good faith by the Company to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of the Prospectus relating to any Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities. The Company shall immediately notify the Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 3.4.

61

3.5 Reporting Obligations. As long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Company, at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, covenants to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. The Company further covenants that it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell shares of the Common Stock held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144, including providing any legal opinions. Upon the request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

3.6 Lock-Up Restrictions.

3.6.1 During the Lock-Up Period, none of the Existing Holders shall offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of or distribute any shares of Common Stock that are subject to the Lock-Up Period or any securities convertible into, exercisable for, exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive shares of Common Stock that are subject to the Lock-Up Period, whether now owned or hereinafter acquired, that are owned directly by such Existing Holder (including securities held as a custodian) or with respect to which such Existing Holder has beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the Commission (such securities that are subject to the Lock-Up Period, the “Restricted Securities”), other than any transfer to an affiliate of an Existing Holder or to a Permitted Transferee, as applicable. The foregoing restriction is expressly agreed to preclude each Existing Holder, as applicable, from engaging in any hedging or other transaction with respect to Restricted Securities which is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition of the Restricted Securities even if such Restricted Securities would be disposed of by someone other than such Existing Holder. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions include any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including any put or call option) with respect to any of the Restricted Securities of the applicable Existing Holder, or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from such Restricted Securities.

3.6.2 Each Existing Holder hereby represents and warrants that it now has and, except as contemplated by this subsection 3.6.2 for the duration of the Lock-Up Period, will have good and marketable title to its Restricted Securities, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, and claims that could impact the ability of such Existing Holder to comply with the foregoing restrictions Each Existing Holder agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of any Restricted Securities during the Lock-Up Period.

ARTICLE IV

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION

4.1 Indemnification.

4.1.1 The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and directors and each person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein. The Company shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to the indemnification of the Holder.

62

4.1.2 In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify under this Section 4.1.2 shall be several, not joint and several, among the Holders of Registrable Securities, and the total liability of a Holder under this Section 4.1.2 shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the Company.

4.1.3 Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided, that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party), and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (plus local counsel) for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement), which settlement includes a statement or admission of fault or culpability on the part of such indemnified party, or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

4.1.4 The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities.

4.1.5 If the indemnification provided under Section 4.1 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided, however, that the liability of

63

any Holder under this subsection 4.1.5 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in subsections 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 were determined by Pro Rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this subsection 4.1.5. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
