Except for the Requisite Company Vote, the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the Transactions have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and no other corporate proceedings on the part of the Company are necessary to authorize this Amendment or to consummate the Transactions (other than, with respect to the Merger, the filing of the Certificate of Merger). This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by Parent and Merger Sub, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except to the extent subject to applicable Enforceability Limitations.

(B) The Company Board, at a meeting duly called and held on June 6, 2022, unanimously (i) determined that the Merger Agreement (as amended or modified by this Amendment) and the Transactions (including the Merger), are advisable, fair to, and in the best interests of the Company and holders of Company Shares, (ii) approved the Merger Agreement (as amended or modified by this Amendment) and the Transactions (including the Merger), and (iii) subject to the terms hereof, resolved and agreed to recommend that the holders of Company Shares adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the Merger (in each case, as amended or modified by this Amendment).

LLC to the effect that, as of the date of such opinion and based upon and subject to the various qualifications and assumptions set forth in the written opinion of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, the Merger Consideration to be received by holders of Company Common Stock (other than Parent and its affiliates) pursuant to the Merger Agreement (as amended or modified by this Amendment) is fair, from a financial point of view, to such holders and (b) Qatalyst Partners LP to the effect that, as of the date of such opinion and based upon and subject to the various limitations, qualifications, assumptions and conditions set forth therein, the Merger Consideration to be received by holders of Company Common Stock (other than Parent and its affiliates) pursuant to the Merger Agreement (as amended or modified by this Amendment) is fair, from a financial point of view, to such holders.

(b) Parent and Merger Sub. Parent and Merger Sub each hereby represent and warrant to the Company as follows:

(i) Authority Relative to this Amendment. Each of Parent and Merger Sub has all necessary corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Amendment, to perform its obligations under the Merger Agreement (as amended or modified by this Amendment) and to consummate the Transactions. The execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment by Parent and Merger Sub and the consummation by Parent and Merger Sub of the Transactions have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and no other corporate proceedings on the part of Parent or Merger Sub are necessary to authorize this Amendment or to consummate the Transactions (other than, with respect to the Merger, the filing and recordation of appropriate merger documents as required by the DGCL). This Amendment has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Parent and Merger Sub and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each of Parent and Merger Sub, enforceable against each of Parent and Merger Sub in accordance with its terms, except to the extent subject to applicable Enforceability Limitations.

(ii) Financing.

(A) Parent has delivered to the Company a true, accurate and complete copy of an executed equity commitment letter, dated as of March 20, 2022, as amended by that certain Amendment to Equity Commitment Letter, dated as of the Amendment Date, by and among Parent and Sponsor, including all exhibits, schedules, annexes and amendments thereto (the “Equity Commitment Letter”), pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions of which, Sponsor has committed to provide the amounts set forth therein to Parent for the purpose of funding the Required Amount (such committed equity financing, the “Equity Financing”).

(B) (i) As of the Amendment Date, the Equity Commitment Letter is in full force and effect and has not been withdrawn, rescinded or terminated, or otherwise amended or modified in any respect and (ii) the Equity Commitment Letter, in the form so delivered, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable, and Sponsor, enforceable against the parties thereto in accordance with its terms except as enforceability may be affected by applicable Enforceability Limitations. The Equity Commitment Letter is the only agreement relating to the Equity Financing as of Amendment Date. Other than as expressly set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter, there are no other agreements, side letters, or arrangements, conditions precedent or other contingencies relating to the Equity Commitment Letter that would reasonably be expected to impair the amount, availability or conditionality of the Equity Financing. The Equity Commitment Letter provides that the Company is an express third-party beneficiary of the Equity Commitment Letter in connection with Company’s exercise of its rights under Section 9.6 of the Merger Agreement.

(C) As of Amendment Date, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach on the part of Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable, under any term of the Equity Commitment Letter or, would (i) make any of the assumptions or any of the statements set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter inaccurate in any material respect, (ii) result in any of the conditions in the Equity

Commitment Letter not being satisfied or (iii) otherwise result in the Equity Financing not being available on the Closing Date. Assuming satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.2 of the Merger Agreement, as of the Amendment Date, each of Parent and Merger Sub has no reason to believe that any of the conditions in the Equity Commitment Letter will fail to be satisfied on a timely basis or that the full amount of the Equity Financing will not be available to be funded at the Effective Time.

(D) The aggregate proceeds from the Equity Financing constitute all of the financing required for the consummation of the Merger and the other Transactions, and are sufficient in amount for Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable, to pay the Merger Consideration payable for all Company Shares in connection with the Transaction, any other amounts required to be paid at Closing in connection with the consummation of the Transactions (including any and all payments with respect to Company Stock Options or Company RSUs payable under this Agreement at Closing) and, together with the Company’s cash on hand as of the Closing Date, all associated fees, costs and expenses in connection with the Merger and the other Transactions, including the Equity Financing, in each case, to the extent required to be paid on the Closing Date (collectively, the “Required Amount”). The only conditions precedent related to the obligations of Sponsor to fund the full amount of the Equity Financing are expressly set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter.

(iii) Limited Guaranty. Concurrently with the execution of this Amendment, Parent has delivered to the Company a true, accurate and complete copy of the executed limited guaranty, dated as of March 20, 2022, as amended by that certain Amendment to Limited Guaranty, dated as of the Amendment Date, from Sponsor in favor of the Company in respect of certain matters on the terms specified therein (the “Limited Guaranty”). As of the Amendment Date, the Limited Guaranty is in full force and effect and has not been withdrawn, rescinded or terminated, or otherwise amended or modified in any respect. The Limited Guaranty, in the form so delivered, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Sponsor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms except to the extent subject to applicable Enforceability Limitations. As of the Amendment Date, no event has occurred that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach on the part of Sponsor under any term or condition of the Limited Guaranty. Sponsor has, and at all times will have, access to sufficient capital to satisfy in full the full amount of the guaranteed obligations under the Limited Guaranty as and when due.

3. Additional Agreements of Parent and Merger Sub.
