The undersigned (the “Holder”), for itself and on behalf of the beneficial owners listed on Exhibit B.1 hereto (“Accounts”) for whom the Holder holds contractual and investment authority (each, including the Holder if it is the party exchanging Old Notes (as defined below), an “Exchanging Holder”), hereby confirms its agreement with you as follows:

This Exchange Agreement and the Terms and Conditions for the Exchange of Securities, dated May [•], 2021, attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Terms and Conditions” and, together with this Exchange Agreement, the “Agreement” or the “Exchange Agreement”) is made as of the Effective Date between Accuray Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the Holder.

The New Notes will be convertible into cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election. The Exchange Participants participating in the Exchange, together with the Purchasers, are referred to herein as the “Investors.” The New Notes to be issued in the Transactions are also referred to herein as the “Securities.” This Agreement and the purchase or exchange agreements executed by the other Purchasers and/or Exchanging Holders are hereinafter sometimes collectively referred to as the “Exchange/Subscription Agreements.”

The Company and the Holder agree that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the Holder agrees to exchange, and to cause the other Exchanging Holders to exchange, the aggregate principal amount of Old Notes (such principal amount of Old Notes, the “Exchanged Old Notes”) set forth in Exhibit B.1 for (i) New Notes having an aggregate principal amount, for each Exchanging Holder, equal to the product of (x) the Note Exchange Ratio as set forth in Exhibit B.3 and (y) the Exchanged Old Notes for such Exchanging Holder, rounded to the nearest integral multiple of $1,000 in principal amount, if applicable (such aggregate principal amount of New Notes, as so rounded, if applicable, the “Exchanged New Notes”), and (ii) cash in an amount, for each Exchanging Holder, equal to the product of (x) the Cash Exchange Ratio as set forth in Exhibit B.3 and (y) the Exchanged Old Notes for such Exchanging Holder, and the Company agrees to deliver such Exchange Consideration to the Exchanging Holders in exchange for such Exchanged Old Notes.

The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) will act as securities depositary for the New Notes. At or prior to the times set forth in the Exchange Procedures set forth in Exhibit B.4 hereto (the “Exchange Procedures”), the Holder shall cause the Exchanged Old Notes to be delivered, by book entry transfer through the facilities of DTC, to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., in its capacity as trustee of the Old Notes (in such capacity, the “Old Notes Trustee”), for the account/benefit of the

The Holder’s agreement to acquire the Exchanged New Notes shall be subject to written acceptance, by electronic mail to the Company or its agents, of the Final Term Sheet (such time of acceptance, the “Effective Date”). All questions as to the form of all documents and the validity and acceptance of the Old Notes and the New Notes will be determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, which determination shall be final and binding.

A-11


(c) The Holder understands that the Securities (and the Conversion Shares) acquired by the Exchanging Holders under this Agreement have not been registered under the Securities Act or qualified under applicable state securities laws (the “Securities Laws”). The Holder also understands that the Securities (and the Conversion Shares) are being offered pursuant to exemptions from registration and qualification contained in the Securities Act and the Securities Laws based in part upon the Holder’s representations contained in this Agreement.

(d) Each of the Exchanging Holders is the current sole legal and beneficial owner of the Exchanged Old Notes set forth on Exhibit B.1 hereto. When the Exchanged Old Notes are exchanged, the Company will acquire good, marketable and unencumbered title thereto, free and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges, encumbrances, adverse claims, rights or proxies. None of the Exchanging Holders has, in whole or in part, other than pledges or security interests that a Holder may have created in favor of a prime broker under and in accordance with its prime brokerage agreement with such broker, (a) assigned, transferred, hypothecated, pledged, exchanged or otherwise disposed of any of its Exchanged Old Notes or its rights in its Exchanged Old Notes (other than to the Company pursuant hereto), or (b) given any person or entity any transfer order, power of attorney or other authority of any nature whatsoever with respect to its Exchanged Old Notes.

(e) The Holder understands and agrees, and each subsequent holder of the Securities issued to the Exchanging Holders pursuant to the Exchange (and Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion thereof) by its acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that the Securities (and Conversion Shares) are being offered in a transaction not involving any public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act, that the Securities (and Conversion Shares) have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act and that (a) if it decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer any of the Securities or Conversion Shares, such Securities (and Conversion Shares) may be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only (i) to a person whom the seller reasonably believes is a QIB in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A, (ii) pursuant to any other exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including Rule 144 under the Securities Act (if available), (iii) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act (which the Company has no obligation to effect), or (iv) to the Company, or one of its subsidiaries, in each of cases (i) through (iv) in accordance with any applicable Securities Laws, and that (b) the Holder will, and each subsequent holder is required to, notify any subsequent purchaser of the Securities or Conversion Shares from it of the resale restrictions referred to in (a) above and will provide the Company and the transfer agent such certificates and other information as they may reasonably require to confirm that the transfer by it complies with the foregoing restrictions, if applicable. The Holder also understands that there is no assurance that any exemption from registration under the Securities Act will be available to permit an Exchanging Holder to transfer or dispose of the Securities (and the Conversion Shares) and that, even if available, such exemption may not allow an Exchanging Holder to transfer all or any portion of the Securities (and the Conversion Shares) under the circumstances, in the amounts or at the times an Exchanging Holder might propose.

(f) The Holder understands that the Securities (and Conversion Shares) will, unless sold pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective under the Securities Act or in compliance with Rule 144, bear a legend substantially to the following effect:

THIS SECURITY AND THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK, IF ANY, ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS SECURITY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE.

(2)

AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF ACCURAY INCORPORATED (THE “COMPANY”) THAT IT WILL NOT OFFER, SELL, PLEDGE OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS SECURITY OR ANY BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN PRIOR TO THE DATE THAT IS THE LATER OF (X) ONE YEAR AFTER THE LAST ORIGINAL ISSUE DATE HEREOF OR SUCH SHORTER PERIOD OF TIME AS PERMITTED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY SUCCESSOR PROVISION THERETO AND (Y) SUCH LATER DATE, IF ANY, AS MAY BE REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EXCEPT:

(i) The Holder has not been apprised of the offering of the Securities by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising (as those terms are used in Regulation D under the Securities Act) or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

(j) The Holder acknowledges that the terms of the Exchange pursuant to this Agreement have been mutually negotiated between the Holder and the Company. The Holder was given a meaningful opportunity to negotiate the terms of its exchange of Exchanged Old Notes for the Exchange Consideration.

 

A-13

The Holder acknowledges that the Placement Agent does not take any responsibility for, and can provide no assurance as to the reliability of, any information in the SEC Documents or otherwise provided to the Holder regarding the Company or the Securities. The Holder has requested that it not receive or otherwise be made aware of non-public information regarding the Company that may restrict its ability to trade in the Company’s securities. The Holder represents that it has access to all information that it believes is necessary, sufficient or appropriate in connection with its decision to participate in the Exchange and has made an independent decision to acquire the Securities from the Company.

(l) The Holder acknowledges that it and each Exchanging Holder had a sufficient amount of time to consider whether to participate in the Exchange and that neither the Company nor the Placement Agent has placed any pressure on the Investor or any Exchanging Investor to respond to the opportunity to participate in the Exchange. The Holder acknowledges that neither it nor any Exchanging Holder became aware of the Exchange through any form of general solicitation or advertising within the meaning of Rule 502 under the Securities Act or otherwise through a “public offering” within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

(m) No later than one (1) business day after the date hereof, the Holder agrees to deliver to the Company settlement instructions substantially in the form of Exhibit B.2 hereto.

(n) The Holder has conducted its own investigation of the Company and the terms of the Securities and, in conducting its examination, (a) it has not relied on the Placement Agent or on any statements or other information, written or oral, provided by the Placement Agent concerning the Company, the Securities or the terms of the Transactions, (b) it has had access to, and has had an adequate opportunity to review, all information as it deems necessary to make its decision to participate in the Exchange and to acquire the Securities, and (c) it has been offered the opportunity to ask questions of the Company and received answers thereto, as it deemed necessary in connection with the decision to participate in the Exchange and to acquire the Securities.

(o) Each of the Exchanging Holders:

(i) is able to fend for itself in the transactions contemplated hereby;

(ii) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its prospective investment in the Securities;

(iii) has considered the suitability of the Securities as an investment in light of its own circumstances and financial condition, and each of the Exchanging Holders is able to bear the risks associated with an investment in the New Notes; and

(iv) has the ability to bear the economic risks of its prospective investment and can afford the complete loss of such investment.

(p) The Holder acknowledges and agrees that it and each Exchanging Holder has not disclosed, and will not disclose, to any third party any information regarding the Company or the Exchange, and that it has not transacted, and will not transact, in any securities of the Company, including, but not limited to, any hedging transactions, from the time the Holder was first contacted by the Company or the Placement Agent with respect to the Transactions until after the confidential information (as described in the confirmatory email received by the Holder from the Placement Agent (the “Wall Cross Email”)) is made public.

 

A-14


(q) Except as provided in Section 3(e) above, the Holder understands, covenants and agrees that the Securities (and the Conversion Shares) may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act, unless and until the Holder has furnished written evidence satisfactory to the Company to the effect that such sale, transfer or other disposition will not require registration under the Securities Act and is permissible under the Securities Laws and other applicable securities laws and regulations or that appropriate action necessary for compliance with the Securities Act, the Securities Laws and other applicable securities laws and regulations has been taken.

(r) The Holder acknowledges and agrees that the Company may issue appropriate stop-transfer instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its books and records to ensure compliance with the provisions of this Section.

(s) The Holder understands that the Company, the Placement Agent and others will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representations, acknowledgements and agreements and agrees that if any of the representations and acknowledgements deemed to have been made by it by its participation in the Exchange and acquisition of the Securities are no longer accurate, the Holder shall promptly notify the Company and the Placement Agent. The Holder understands that, unless the Holder notifies the Company in writing to the contrary before the Settlement, each of the Holder’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement will be deemed to have been reaffirmed and confirmed as of the Settlement Date (as defined below), taking into account all information received by the Holder. If the Holder is acquiring the Securities as a fiduciary or agent for one or more investor accounts, it represents that it has sole investment discretion with respect to each such account and it has full power to make the foregoing representations, acknowledgements and agreements on behalf of such account.

(t) The Holder acknowledges and agrees that the Placement Agent has not acted as its financial advisor or fiduciary and that the Placement Agent and its respective directors, officers, employees, representatives and controlling persons have no responsibility for making, and have not made, any independent investigation of the information contained herein or in the SEC Documents and make no representation or warranty to the Holder, express or implied, with respect to the Company or the Securities or the accuracy, completeness or adequacy of the information provided to the Holder, the SEC Documents or any other publicly available information, nor shall any of the foregoing persons be liable for any loss or damages of any kind resulting from the use of the information contained therein or otherwise supplied to the Holder.

(u) The Holder acknowledges that no action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction outside the United States by the Company or the Placement Agent that would permit an offering of the Securities, or possession or distribution of offering materials in connection with the Transactions or the issue of the Securities (including any filing of a registration statement), in any jurisdiction outside the United States where action for that purpose is required. To the extent any of the Exchanging Holders is outside the United States, the Holder will comply with all applicable laws and regulations in each foreign jurisdiction in which it exchanges or tenders Old Notes, or offers, sells or delivers Securities or has in its possession or distributes any offering material, in all cases at its own expense.

(v) The Holder confirms that it and each other Exchanging Holder is not relying on any communication (written or oral) of the Company, the Placement Agent or any of their respective affiliates or representatives as investment advice or as a recommendation to exchange its Old Notes for the Exchange Consideration. The Holder understands that nothing in this Agreement, information

 

A-15


the Company has filed with and furnished to the Commission or any other materials communicated (whether or written) or otherwise presented to the Holder by the Company, the Placement Agent or any of their respective affiliates and representatives in connection with the Transactions constitutes legal, business, financial or tax advice. The Holder has consulted such legal, business, financial and tax advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its participation in the Exchange and has made its own assessment and has satisfied itself concerning the relevant tax and other economic considerations relevant to its participation in the Exchange and investment in the Securities.

(w) The operations of each Exchanging Holder have been conducted in material compliance with the rules and regulations administered or conducted by OFAC applicable to such Exchanging Holder. The Holder has performed due diligence necessary to reasonably determine that its beneficial owners are not named on the lists of denied parties or blocked persons administered by OFAC, resident in or organized under the laws of a country that is the subject of Sanctions, or otherwise the subject of Sanctions.

(x) None of the Exchanging Holders is an affiliate of the Company, nor, during the three months preceding the date of this Exchange Agreement, has any of the Exchanging Holders been an affiliate of the Company, within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

The Holder understands that the Securities (and Conversion Shares) will, unless sold pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective under the Securities Act or in compliance with Rule 144, bear a legend substantially to the following effect:

NO AFFILIATE (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) OF ACCURAY INCORPORATED (THE “COMPANY”) OR PERSON THAT HAS BEEN AN AFFILIATE (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) OF THE COMPANY DURING THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THREE MONTHS MAY PURCHASE, OTHERWISE ACQUIRE OR HOLD THIS SECURITY OR A BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN.
