(w) “Warrant Price” shall mean the price paid per share for Equity Securities by the investors in the Next Equity Financing.

2. Amount and Terms of the Initial Notes.

2.1 Issuance of Initial Notes. In return for the Consideration paid by each Purchaser, the Company shall sell and issue to such Purchaser one or more Initial Notes. Each Initial Note shall have a principal balance equal to that Consideration paid by such Purchaser for the Initial Note, as set forth in the Schedule of Purchasers. Each Initial Note shall be convertible pursuant to Section 2.2 below into Conversion Shares and shall be secured by the assets of the Company as described in Section 2.4 below. Interest on the Initial Notes shall accrue as described in the Initial Notes.

2.2 Initial Note Conversion.

(a) Initial Public Offering. The principal and unpaid accrued interest of each Initial Note shall be automatically converted into Conversion Shares upon the closing of the IPO. The number of Conversion Shares to be issued upon such conversion shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the outstanding principal and unpaid accrued interest on an Initial Note to be converted, or portion thereof, on the date of conversion, by the Initial Note Conversion Price.

(b) No Fractional Shares. Upon the conversion of an Initial Note into Conversion Shares, in lieu of any fractional shares to which the holder of the Initial Note would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall pay the Initial Note holder cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the Initial Note Conversion Price.

(c) Mechanics of Conversion. The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver the Conversion Shares until the Initial Note holder has surrendered the Initial Note to the Company. Such conversion may be made contingent upon the closing of the IPO, provided, such conversion shall be deemed to occur immediately prior to the closing of the IPO.

(d) Reservation of Shares. If, at the time of conversion, there are insufficient authorized Conversion Shares to permit conversion of the Initial Notes in full, the

Company shall take all corporate action and shall use best efforts to cause the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) and the Company’s stockholders to recommend and approve such actions as are necessary to authorize a sufficient number of shares of Conversion Shares to permit such conversion in full, and each Purchaser agrees to cooperate with the Company and to vote any of its voting securities of the Company in favor of any action requiring stockholder consent to authorize or issue such Conversion Shares to permit such conversion in full.

2.3 Note Exchange; Issuance of Warrants.

(a) Note Exchange. In the event that the IPO has not been consummated on or before the Exchange Date, upon surrender of the Initial Note to the Company, each of the Initial Notes shall be exchanged for an Exchange Note in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C. Each Exchange Note shall have a principal balance equal to the Consideration paid by such Purchaser for the Initial Note originally issued to such Purchaser, as set forth in the Schedule of Purchasers, and shall reflect interest accrued through the Exchange Date carried forward from such Initial Note. Each Exchange Note shall be convertible pursuant to Sections 2.3(b) and 2.3(c) below and shall be secured by the assets of the Company as described in Section 2.4 below. Interest on the Exchange Notes shall accrue from and after the Exchange Date as described in the Exchange Notes.

(b) Conversion of Exchange Notes Upon Next Equity Financing. The principal and unpaid accrued interest of each Exchange Note shall be automatically converted into Conversion Shares upon the closing of the Next Equity Financing. The number of Conversion Shares to be issued upon such conversion shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the outstanding principal and unpaid accrued interest on an Exchange Note to be converted, or portion thereof, on the date of conversion, by the Exchange Note Conversion Price. At least five (5) days prior to the closing of the Next Equity Financing, the Company shall notify the holder of each Exchange Note in writing of the terms under which the Equity Securities of the Company will be sold in such financing. The issuance of Conversion Shares pursuant to the conversion of each Exchange Note shall be upon and subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to the Equity Securities sold in the Next Equity Financing. For the avoidance of doubt, for example, if the Next Equity Financing is the sale of Equity Securities including both preferred stock and warrants exercisable for Equity Securities, the Conversion Shares shall include both preferred stock and warrants exercisable for Equity Securities.

(c) Conversion of Exchange Note at the Election of Purchaser. By providing written notice to the Company, each Purchaser may elect, in the event that a Corporate Transaction occurs prior to the Next Equity Financing, that the principal and unpaid accrued interest of each Exchange Note held by such Purchaser shall be converted into shares of Series B-2 Preferred immediately prior to the closing of such Corporate Transaction. The number of shares of Series B-2 Preferred to be issued upon such conversion shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the outstanding principal and unpaid accrued interest on an Exchange Note to be converted, or portion thereof, on the date of conversion, by the Series B-2 Price.

(d) No Fractional Shares. Upon the conversion of an Exchange Note into Conversion Shares or shares of Series B-2 Preferred, in lieu of any fractional shares to which the holder of the Exchange Note would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall pay the

Exchange Note holder cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exchange Note Conversion Price or the Series B-2 Price (whichever is then applicable).

(e) Mechanics of Conversion. The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver the Conversion Shares or shares of Series B-2 Preferred until the Exchange Note holder has surrendered the Exchange Note to the Company. Such conversion may be made contingent upon the closing of the Next Equity Financing or Corporate Transaction, provided, such conversion shall be deemed to occur immediately prior to the closing of such Next Equity Financing or Corporate Transaction.

(f) Reservation of Shares. If, at the time of conversion, there are insufficient authorized Exchange Note Conversion Shares or shares of Series B-2 Preferred (whichever is then applicable) to permit conversion of the Exchange Notes or issuance of shares of Series B-2 Preferred upon exercise of the Warrants (as defined below) in full, the Company shall take all corporate action and shall use best efforts to cause the Board and the Company’s stockholders to recommend and approve such actions as are necessary to authorize a sufficient number of shares of Exchange Note Conversion Shares or Series B-2 Preferred to permit such conversion or exercise in full, and each Purchaser agrees to cooperate with the Company and to vote any of its voting securities of the Company in favor of any action requiring stockholder consent to authorize or issue such Exchange Note Conversion Shares or shares of Series B-2 Preferred to permit such conversion or exercise in full.

(g) Termination of Conversion Rights. The conversion rights set forth in this Section 2.3 shall be exercisable from and after the date of issuance of the Exchange Notes, and shall terminate and expire to the extent not previously exercised, on the earliest of (i) the date upon which all Exchange Notes are fully paid and no longer outstanding, (ii) the closing date of the IPO, or (iii) upon the consummation by the Company of any Corporate Transaction (each of (ii) and (iii), a “Terminating Significant Transaction”). The Company shall provide each Purchaser with at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice of any Terminating Significant Transaction.

(h) Corporate Transaction Repayment. In the event that the Company consummates a Corporate Transaction prior to the Next Equity Financing and any Exchange Note has not been converted pursuant to this Section 2.3, then immediately prior to or simultaneous with the consummation of such Corporate Transaction, the Company shall pay to the Purchaser holding such Exchange Note an amount equal to the sum of (i) the outstanding interest accrued on such Exchange Note and (ii) two (2) times the outstanding principal amount of such Exchange Note.

(i) Warrants. In the event that the IPO has not been consummated on or before the Exchange Date, upon surrender of the Initial Note to the Company, each Purchaser shall receive a warrant to purchase Exchange Note Conversion Shares or shares of Series B-2 Preferred in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Warrant”). Each Warrant shall be exercisable for that number of Exchange Note Conversion Shares determined by dividing the Warrant Coverage Amount by the Warrant Price, provided, however, if the Exchange Note issued to a Purchaser in conjunction with such Warrant is converted into shares of Series B-2 Preferred pursuant to Section 2.3(c) hereof, such Warrant shall instead be exercisable for that

number of shares of Series B-2 Preferred determined by dividing the Warrant Coverage Amount by the Series B-2 Price (thereby becoming a “Series B-2 Warrant”). The exercise price for the Exchange Note Conversion Shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be the Warrant Price applicable to such shares, and the exercise price for the shares of Series B-2 Preferred purchasable upon exercise of the Series B-2 Warrants shall be the Series B-2 Price.

2.4 Grant of Security. As collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the obligations evidenced by the Notes, the Company hereby grants to the Purchasers a first priority security interest in all of the assets of the Company (the “Collateral”). The Company hereby irrevocably appoints each Purchaser as attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of the Company and in the name of the Company or otherwise, from time to time in any such Purchaser’s discretion, upon the Company’s failure or inability to do so, to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Purchaser may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of the security interest granted hereunder, including to file, in its sole discretion, one or more financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto, relative to any of the Collateral without the signature of the Company where permitted by law. Each Purchaser shall pay all costs and expenses that it incurs with respect to the accomplishment and perfection of the security interest granted hereunder.

2.5 No Prepayment. The Company may not prepay any principal amount or interest on the Notes, in whole or in part.

3. Closing Mechanics.

3.1 Closing. The closing of the purchase of the Initial Notes in return for the Consideration paid by each Purchaser (the “Closing”) shall take place at 1:00 pm on the date hereof (the “Closing Date”), at the offices the Company, or at such other time and place as the Company and Required Note Holders agree upon orally or in writing. At the Closing, each Purchaser shall deliver the Consideration to the Company and the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser one or more executed Initial Notes in return for the respective Consideration provided to the Company.

The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to own and operate its properties and assets, to execute and deliver this Agreement, to issue and sell the Securities, and to carry out the provisions of this Agreement, provided, however, that the Company has not obtained the necessary corporate approval for the authorization of the Equity Securities to be sold at the closing of the Next Equity Financing. TRX Services Limited (the “Subsidiary”) has been duly organized and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the United Kingdom, with corporate power and authority to own or lease its properties and conduct its business. The Company and the Subsidiary are duly qualified to do business and are in good

standing as foreign corporations in all jurisdictions in which the nature of their activities and of their properties (both owned and leased) makes such qualification necessary, except for such jurisdictions where the failure to so qualify would not (i) have a material adverse effect on the earnings, business, management, properties, assets, rights, operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company and of the Subsidiary taken as a whole or (ii) prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (the occurrence of any such effect or any such prevention described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) being referred to as a “Material Adverse Effect”).

4.2 Subsidiaries. Other than the Subsidiary, the Company does not own or control any equity security or other interest of any other corporation, limited partnership or other business entity.

A detailed schedule

of the Company’s optionholders holding options issued under the Plan is set forth in Schedule 4.3(b) of the Schedule of Exceptions.

(c) Other than the shares reserved for issuance under the Plan and except as may be granted pursuant to this Agreement, there are no outstanding options, warrants, rights (including conversion or preemptive rights and rights of first refusal), proxy or stockholder agreements, or agreements of any kind for the purchase or acquisition from the Company of any of its securities. A detailed schedule of the Company’s optionholders (except as described in Schedule 4.3(b)) or warrantholders is set forth in Schedule 4.3(c) of the Schedule of Exceptions.

(d) All issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock (i) have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable, (ii) were issued in compliance with all applicable state and federal laws concerning the issuance of securities; and (iii) are subject to a right of first refusal in favor of the Company upon transfer.

No stock plan, stock purchase, stock option or other agreement or understanding between the Company and any holder of any equity securities or rights to purchase equity securities provides for acceleration or other changes in the vesting provisions or other terms of such agreement or understanding as the result of (i) termination of employment or consulting services (whether actual or constructive); (ii) any merger, consolidated sale of stock or assets, change in control or any other transaction(s) by the Company; or (iii) the occurrence of any other event or combination of events.

(f) The rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the shares of the Preferred Stock are as stated in the Restated Certificate. Each outstanding share of Preferred Stock is convertible into Common Stock on a one-for-one basis as of the date hereof. A sufficient number of shares of Series B-2 Preferred has been duly and validly reserved for issuance pursuant to Section 2.3(c) and Section 2.3(i) hereof. When issued against payment therefor in accordance with this Agreement and the Notes, the Conversion Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and will be free of any liens or encumbrances; provided that the Conversion Shares shall be subject to restrictions on transfer under state and/or federal securities laws as set forth herein or as otherwise required by such laws at the time a transfer is proposed.

(g) All outstanding shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock, and all shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of outstanding options, warrants or other exercisable or convertible securities are subject to a market standoff or “lockup” agreement of not less than 180 days following the Company’s initial public offering.

4.4 Authorization; Binding Authority. Except for the authorization and issuance of the Equity Securities issuable in connection with the Next Equity Financing, all corporate action on the part of the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for

the authorization of this Agreement, the performance of all obligations of the Company hereunder at the Closing, and the authorization, sale, issuance and delivery of the Securities pursuant hereto has been taken. This Agreement, the Notes and the Warrants, when executed and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, will be valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms, except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights and (b) general principles of equity that restrict the availability of equitable remedies. The sale of the Notes and the subsequent conversion of the Notes into Conversion Shares or shares of Series B-2 Preferred (and the Common Stock into which such securities are convertible), and the issuance of the Warrants and the subsequent exercise of the Warrants into Conversion Shares or shares of Series B-2 Preferred (and the Common Stock into which such securities are convertible) are not subject to any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal that have not been properly waived or complied with.

4.5 Financial Statements. The Company has delivered to the Purchasers the consolidated financial statements of the Company and the Subsidiary, together with related notes and schedules for the year ended December 31, 2008 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 (the “Financial Statements”), which present fairly the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows of the Company and the consolidated Subsidiary, at the indicated dates and for the indicated periods. Such Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted principles of accounting (“GAAP”), consistently applied throughout the periods involved, except as disclosed therein, and all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of results for such periods have been made. Except as disclosed on the Schedule of Exceptions, the Company and the Subsidiary do not have any material liabilities or obligations, direct or contingent (including any off-balance sheet obligations or any “variable interest entities” within the meaning of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46R). Except as disclosed in the Schedule of Exceptions, neither the Company nor the Subsidiary is aware of (a) any material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting or (b) change in internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

4.6 Liabilities. The Company has no material liabilities and, to the best of its knowledge, has no material contingent liabilities, except current liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business which have not been, either in any individual case or in the aggregate, materially adverse.

(d) For the purposes of subsections (b) and (c) above, all indebtedness, liabilities, agreements, understandings, instruments, contracts and proposed transactions involving the same person or entity (including persons or entities the Company has reason to believe are affiliated therewith) shall be aggregated for the purpose of meeting the individual minimum dollar amounts of such subsections.

(e) Other than as disclosed in Section 4.7 of the Schedule of Exceptions, the Company has not engaged in the past three (3) months in any discussion (i) with any representative of any other business or businesses regarding the consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any such other business or businesses, (ii) with any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, or other business entity or any individual regarding the sale, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or a transaction or series of related transactions in which more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the Company is disposed of, or (iii) regarding any other form of acquisition, liquidation, dissolution or winding up, of the Company.

4.8 Obligations to Related Parties. There are no obligations of the Company to officers, directors, stockholders, or employees of the Company other than (a) for payment of salary for services rendered, (b) reimbursement for reasonable expenses incurred on behalf of the Company and (c) for other standard employee benefits made generally available to all employees (including stock option agreements outstanding under any stock option plan approved by the Board).

10.2 Governing Law.

The parties agree that any action brought by either party under or in relation to this Agreement, including without limitation to interpret or enforce any provision of this Agreement, shall be brought in, and each party agrees to and does hereby submit to the jurisdiction and venue of, any state or federal court located in the County of Alameda, California.

10.3 Facsimile; Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile and in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

10.4 Titles and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.

10.5 Notices. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (b) when sent by confirmed electronic mail, telex or facsimile if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, if not, then on the next business day, (c) five (5) days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (d) one (1) day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of receipt. All communications shall be sent to the Company at the address as set forth on the signature page hereof and to Purchaser at the address set forth on the Schedule of Purchasers attached hereto or at such other address or electronic mail address as the Company

Bugdanowitz, Goodwin Procter, LLP, Three Embarcadero Center, 24th Floor, San Francisco, CA 94111 (which copy shall not constitute notice to the Company).

10.6 Finder’s Fee. Each party represents that it neither is nor will be obligated for any finder’s fee or commission in connection with this transaction. Purchaser agrees to indemnify and to hold harmless the Company from any liability for any commission or compensation in the nature of a finder’s fee (and the costs and expenses of defending against such liability or asserted liability) for which Purchaser or any of its officers, partners, employees or representatives is responsible. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from any liability for any commission or compensation in the nature of a finder’s fee (and the costs and expenses of defending against such liability or asserted liability) for which the Company or any of its officers, employees or representatives is responsible.

10.7 Expenses. Each party shall pay all costs and expenses that it incurs with respect to the negotiation, execution, delivery and performance of the Agreement; provided that the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, special counsel for certain of the Purchasers, in an amount not to exceed $5,000.

10.8 Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement, the Notes and the Warrants and the other documents delivered pursuant hereto constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects hereof and thereof. The Company’s agreements with each of the Purchasers are separate agreements, and the sales of the Initial Notes to each of the Purchasers are separate sales. Nonetheless, any term of this Agreement (other than Section 2.5 of this Agreement), the Notes or the Warrants may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement (other than Section 2.5 of this Agreement), the Notes or the Warrants may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company and the Required Note Holders, provided, however, that any amendment of any term of this Agreement, the Notes or the Warrants that increases a Purchaser’s obligations or that disproportionately affects such Purchaser or disadvantages such Purchaser in a way that such amendment does not disadvantage all other Purchasers, shall require the written consent of that Purchaser. Any waiver or amendment effected in accordance with this Section shall be binding upon each party to this Agreement and any holder of any Note or Warrant issued under this Agreement at the time outstanding and each future holder of all such Notes or Warrants.

10.9 Effect of Amendment or Waiver. Each Purchaser acknowledges that by the operation of Section 10.8 hereof, the Required Note Holders will have the right and power to diminish or eliminate all rights of such Purchaser under this Agreement and each Note and Warrant issued to such Purchaser (including, without limitation, such Purchaser’s right to receive principal and interest as due under each Note).

10.10 Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement and the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

10.11 Stock Purchase Agreement. Each Purchaser understands and agrees that the conversion of the Notes into and exercise of the Warrants for Conversion Shares or for shares of Series B-2 Preferred issuable pursuant to Section 2.3(c) hereof may require such Purchaser’s execution of certain agreements (in form reasonably agreeable to the Purchaser) relating to the purchase and sale of such securities as well as registration, co-sale, rights of first refusal, rights of first offer and voting rights, if any, relating to such securities.

10.1 Registrable Securities. The Company and the undersigned Purchasers, constituting the holders of at least a majority of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Rights Agreement), agree and acknowledge that the Conversion Shares, when issued, shall be deemed “Registrable Securities” for all purposes under the Rights Agreement. By execution of this Agreement, each Purchaser expressly waives, on behalf of itself and all holders of such rights, (a) any right of first refusal or other participation right with respect to the Securities granted to such Purchaser pursuant to Section 4 of the Rights Agreement and (b) all rights it may have to notice of such sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement pursuant to Sections 4.2 and 4.4 of the Rights Agreement.

10.2 Exculpation Among Purchasers. Each Purchaser acknowledges that it is not relying upon any person, firm, corporation or stockholder, other than the Company and its officers and directors in their capacities as such, in making its investment or decision to invest in the Company. Each Purchaser agrees that no other Purchaser nor the respective controlling persons, officers, directors, partners, agents, stockholders or employees of any other Purchaser shall be liable for any action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the purchase and sale of the Securities.

10.3 Acknowledgement. In order to avoid doubt, it is acknowledged that each Purchaser shall be entitled to the benefit of all adjustments in the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock of the Company or as a result of any splits, recapitalizations, combinations or other similar transaction affecting the Common Stock or Preferred Stock underlying the Conversion Shares or the shares of Series B-2 Preferred issuable pursuant to Section 2.3(c) hereof that occur prior to the conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants.

10.4 Further Assurance. From time to time, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchasers such additional documents and shall provide such additional information to the Purchasers as any Purchaser may reasonably require to carry out the terms of this Agreement and the Notes and any agreements executed in connection herewith or therewith, or to be informed of the financial and business conditions and prospects of the Company.

10.5 Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT EACH MAY LEGALLY DO SO, EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, CAUSE OF ACTION, OR PROCEEDING ARISING UNDER OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH, OR RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO, THE DEALING OF THE PARTIES HERETO WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND IRRESPECTIVE OF WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR

OTHERWISE. TO THE EXTENT EACH MAY LEGALLY DO SO, EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY AGREES THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE DECIDED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT EITHER PARTY HERETO MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF ANY OTHER PARTY HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

10.6 Dispute Resolution. Any dispute arising out of or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will be resolved solely by confidential binding arbitration in San Francisco, California according to the then current commercial arbitration rules of JAMS. Each party shall bear its own attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees, and costs connected to such arbitration.
