               (a) IPO Registration Statement. Subject to Section 2.1(c), the Company shall (i) prepare and file with the SEC a Form S-1 registration statement under the Securities Act (the “IPO Registration Statement”) with respect to its IPO no later than the Filing Date and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the IPO as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than the Completion Date.

                    The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Holders of Registrable Securities will suffer damages if the Company fails to fulfill its material obligations under Section 2.1(a) hereof and that it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision. Accordingly, the Company agrees to pay liquidated damages for each month (or any pro-rata portion of any month) on the Series A Preferred Stock held by Investors (over and above any dividends accruing or payable with respect thereto) equal to two percent (2%) of the Original Purchase Price, payable in arrears at the end of the month (or any pro rata portion thereof) (“Liquidated Damages”) if (i) the IPO Registration Statement has not been filed on or prior to the Filing Date or (ii) the IPO has not been consummated on or prior to the Completion Date, provided, however, that Liquidated Damages shall only be payable with respect to the period from the Filing Date or the Completion Date, as applicable, that the IPO Registration Statement has not been filed or the IPO has not been consummated, as applicable, and, provided further, that Liquidated Damages will not accrue under more than one of the foregoing clauses (i) or (ii) at any one time.

               (b) Inclusion of Registrable Securities in IPO. The Company shall notify each Holder of Registrable Securities in writing at least 20 days prior to filing the IPO Registration Statement of its rights to include Registrable Securities in the IPO Registration Statement, if any, pursuant to this Section 2.1. If Holders of Registrable Securities have the right to include Registrable Securities in the IPO Registration Statement, a Holder desiring to include all or any portion of its Registrable Securities (a “Selling Holder”) shall notify the Company in writing no later than five (5) days after the date of receipt of the Company’s notice, such notice to include the number of Registrable Securities such Selling Holder wishes to include in the IPO Registration Statement. Subject to Section 2.3 below, if and to the extent other existing stockholders of Common Stock (“Other Selling Holders”) will be registering Common Stock in the IPO Registration Statement, the Company shall use its best efforts to include in the IPO Registration Statement, such number of shares of Registrable Securities held by Selling Holders

4



as is proportionate to the number of shares of Common Stock held by Other Selling Holders which are to be included in the IPO Registration Statement.

                (c) Deferral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to Selling Holders, a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for the IPO Registration Statement to be filed or for the Company to consummate the IPO, and it is therefore essential to defer the filing of IPO Registration Statement and/or the closing of the IPO, then the Company shall have the right, without incurring the obligation to pay Liquidated Damages as set forth in Section 2.1(a) above, to defer such filing or closing for a period of not more than ninety (90) days following the Filing Date or Closing Date, as applicable; provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than once.

                (d) Subordination/Exhibit A hereto. The Company and each Investor and Holder of Registrable Securities hereby agrees that Exhibit A attached hereto is hereby incorporated into this Agreement by this reference thereto and each unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to be legally bound by the terms, conditions and provisions contained in Exhibit A. Each reference in this Agreement to “this Agreement,” “hereunder,” “hereof,” “herein,” or words of like import shall mean and be a reference to this Agreement together with Exhibit A.

          2.2 Company Registration. If the Company proposes to register (including, for this purpose, a registration effected by the Company for stockholders other than the Holders) any of its Common Stock under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than in the IPO or an Excluded Registration), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder notice of such registration. Upon the request of each Holder given within five (5) days after such notice is given by the Company, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 2.3, cause to be registered all of the Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be included in such registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 2.2 before the effective date of such registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration. The expenses (other than Selling Expenses) of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 2.5.

          2.3 Underwriting Requirements. In connection with the IPO pursuant to Section 2.1 and any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to Section 2.2, the Company shall not be required to include any of the Holders’ Registrable Securities in such underwriting unless the Holders accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and its underwriters, and then only in such quantity as the underwriters in their sole discretion determine will not jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. If the total number of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the number of securities to be sold (other than by the Company) that the underwriters in their reasonable discretion determine is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Registrable Securities, which the underwriters and the Company in their sole discretion determine will not jeopardize the success of the offering. If the underwriters determine that less than all of the Registrable Securities

5



requested to be registered can be included in such offering, then the Registrable Securities that are included in such offering shall be allocated among the Selling Holders in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the number of Registrable Securities owned by each Selling Holder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by all such Selling Holders. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to any Holder to the nearest 100 shares. For purposes of the provision in this Section 2.3 concerning apportionment, for any Selling Holder that is a partnership, limited liability company, or corporation, the partners, members, retired partners, retired members, stockholders, and Affiliates of such Holder, or the estates and Immediate Family Members of any such partners, retired partners, members, and retired members and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing Persons, shall be deemed to be a single Selling Holder, and any pro rata reduction with respect to such Selling Holder shall be based upon the aggregate number of Registrable Securities owned by all Persons included in such Selling Holder, as defined in this sentence.

          2.4 Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Section 2 with respect to the Registrable Securities of any Selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as is reasonably required to effect the registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities.

          2.5 Expenses of Registration. All expenses (other than Selling Expenses) incurred in connection with registrations, filings, or qualifications pursuant to Section 2, including all registration, filing, and qualification fees; printers’ and accounting fees; fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company; and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the Selling Holders (“Selling Holder Counsel”), shall be borne and paid by the Company.

          2.6 Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any registration pursuant to this Agreement as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Section 2.

          2.7 Indemnification. If any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement under this Section 2:

               (a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Selling Holder, and the partners, members, officers, directors, and stockholders of each such Holder; legal counsel and accountants for each such Holder; any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for each such Holder; and each Person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any Damages, and the Company will pay to each such Holder, underwriter, controlling Person, or other aforementioned Person any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred thereby in connection with investigating or defending any claim or proceeding from which Damages may result, as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.7(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim or proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company,

6



which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the Company be liable for any Damages to the extent that they arise out of or are based upon actions or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of any such Holder, underwriter, controlling Person, or other aforementioned Person expressly for use in connection with such registration.

               (b) To the extent permitted by law, each Selling Holder, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each Person (if any), who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, legal counsel and accountants for the Company, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act), any other Holder selling securities in such registration statement, and any controlling Person of any such underwriter or other Holder, against any Damages, in each case only to the extent that such Damages arise out of or are based upon actions or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of such Selling Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such Selling Holder will pay to the Company and each other aforementioned Person any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred thereby in connection with investigating or defending any claim or proceeding from which Damages may result, as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.7(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim or proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided further that in no event shall the aggregate amounts payable by any Holder by way of indemnity or contribution under this Sections 2.7(b) and 2.7(d) exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Holder (net of any Selling Expenses paid by such Holder), except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such Holder.

               (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 2.7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action) for which a party may be entitled to indemnification hereunder, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 2.7, give the indemnifying party notice of the commencement thereof. The indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in such action and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, participate jointly with any other indemnifying party to which notice has been given, and to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties that may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such action. The failure to give notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 2.7, to the extent that such failure materially prejudices the indemnifying party’s ability to defend such action. The failure to give notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 2.7.

               (d) To provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either (i) any party otherwise entitled to

7



indemnification hereunder makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 2.7 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case, notwithstanding the fact that this Section 2.7 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any party hereto for which indemnification is provided under this Section 2.7, then, and in each such case, such parties will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of each of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the statements, omissions, or other actions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability, or expense, as well as to reflect any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact, or the omission or alleged omission of a material fact, relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, however, that, in any such case, (x) no Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by such Holder pursuant to such registration statement, and (y) no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation; and provided further that in no event shall a Holder’s liability pursuant to this Section 2.7(d), when combined with the amounts paid or payable by such Holder pursuant to Section 2.7(b), exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Holder (net of any Selling Expenses paid by such Holder), except in the case of willful misconduct or fraud by such Holder.

               (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control.

               (f) Unless otherwise superseded by an underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering, the obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 2.7 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration under this Section 2, and otherwise shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

          2.8 Rule 144. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, to the extent the Series A Preferred Stock constituted “restricted securities,” as such term is defined in Rule 144, the Company shall make and keep available adequate current public information, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144.

          2.9 Lock-up Agreement. Each Holder hereby agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter, during the period commencing on the date of the final prospectus relating to the IPO and ending on the date specified by the Company and

8



the managing underwriter (such period not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days, which period may be extended upon the request of the managing underwriter, to the extent required by any FINRA rules, for an additional period of up to fifteen (15) days if the Company issues or proposes to issue an earnings or other public release within fifteen (15) days of the expiration of the 180-day lockup period, (i) lend; offer; pledge; sell; contract to sell; sell any option or contract to purchase; purchase any option or contract to sell; grant any option, right, or warrant to purchase; or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable (directly or indirectly) for Common Stock held immediately before the effective date of the IPO Registration Statement or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or other securities, in cash, or otherwise. The foregoing provisions of this Section 2.9 shall apply only to the IPO, shall not apply to the sale of any shares to an underwriter pursuant to an underwriting agreement, and shall be applicable to the Holders only if all officers and directors are subject to the same restrictions and the Company uses commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a similar agreement from all stockholders individually owning more than five percent (5%) of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock (after giving effect to conversion into Common Stock of all outstanding Series A Preferred Stock). The underwriters in connection with the IPO are intended third-party beneficiaries of this Section 2.9 and shall have the right, power, and authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto. Each Holder further agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters in connection with such IPO that are consistent with this Section 2.9 or that are necessary to give further effect thereto. Any discretionary waiver or termination of the restrictions of any or all of such agreements by the Company or the underwriters shall apply pro rata to all Holders subject to such agreements, based on the number of shares subject to such agreements.

     2.10 Restrictions on Transfer.

               (a) The Series A Preferred Stock and the Registrable Securities shall not be sold, pledged, or otherwise transferred, and the Company shall not recognize and shall issue stop-transfer instructions to its transfer agent with respect to any such sale, pledge, or transfer, except upon the conditions specified in this Agreement, which conditions are intended to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act. A transferring Holder will cause any proposed purchaser, pledgee, or transferee of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Registrable Securities held by such Holder to agree to take and hold such securities subject to the provisions and upon the conditions specified in this Agreement.

               (b) Each certificate or instrument representing (i) the Series A Preferred Stock, (ii) the Registrable Securities, and (iii) any other securities issued in respect of the securities referenced in clauses (i) and (ii) upon any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, or similar event, shall (unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of Section 2.10(c)) be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form:

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES ONLY AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES

9



ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF REGISTRATION OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM UNDER SUCH ACT AND UNDER ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. EXAMWORKS, INC. (THE "COMPANY"), IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION, SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY TO THE EFFECT THAT REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT IS NOT REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH ANY PROPOSED TRANSFER NOR IS SUCH TRANSFER IN VIOLATION OF ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS LEGEND SHALL BE ENDORSED UPON ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IN EXCHANGE FOR THIS CERTIFICATE.”

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE STOCKHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.

          The Holders consent to the Company making a notation in its records and giving instructions to any transfer agent of the Restricted Securities in order to implement the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 2.10.

               (c) The holder of each certificate representing Restricted Securities, by acceptance thereof, agrees to comply in all respects with the provisions of this Section 2.10. Before any proposed sale, pledge, or transfer of any Restricted Securities, unless there is in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the proposed transaction, the Holder thereof shall give notice to the Company of such Holder’s intention to effect such sale, pledge, or transfer. Each such notice shall describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed sale, pledge, or transfer in sufficient detail and, if reasonably requested by the Company, shall be accompanied at such Holder’s expense by either (i) a written opinion of legal counsel who shall, and whose legal opinion shall, be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, addressed to the Company, to the effect that the proposed transaction may be effected without registration under the Securities Act; (ii) a “no action” letter from the SEC to the effect that the proposed sale, pledge, or transfer of such Restricted Securities without registration will not result in a recommendation by the staff of the SEC that action be taken with respect thereto; or (iii) any other evidence reasonably satisfactory to counsel to the Company to the effect that the proposed sale, pledge, or transfer of the Restricted Securities may be effected without registration under the Securities Act, whereupon the Holder of such Restricted Securities shall be entitled to sell, pledge, or transfer such Restricted Securities in accordance with the terms of the notice given by the Holder to the Company. The Company will not require such a legal opinion or “no action” letter (x) in any transaction in compliance with SEC Rule 144 or (y) in any transaction in which such Holder distributes Restricted Securities to an Affiliate of such Holder for no consideration, provided that each transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms of this Section 2.10. Each certificate or instrument evidencing the Restricted Securities transferred as above provided

10



shall bear, except if such transfer is made pursuant to SEC Rule 144, the appropriate restrictive legend set forth in Section 2.10(b), except that such certificate shall not bear such restrictive legend if, in the opinion of counsel for such Holder and the Company, such legend is not required in order to establish compliance with any provisions of the Securities Act.

         2.11 Termination of Registration Rights. The right of any Holder to request inclusion of Registrable Securities in any registration pursuant to Section 2.1 or Section 2.2 shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of:

               (a) the closing of a Deemed Liquidation Event, as such term is defined the Certificate of Designation with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock;

               (b) when all of such Holder’s Registrable Securities could be sold without restriction under SEC Rule 144 within any 90-day period; or

Each Investor agrees that such Investor will keep confidential and will not disclose, divulge, or use for any purpose (other than to monitor its investment in the Company) any confidential information obtained from the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (including notice of the Company’s intention to file a registration statement), unless such confidential information (a) is known or becomes known to the public in general (other than as a result of a breach of this Section 3.4 by such Investor), (b) is or has been independently developed or conceived by the Investor without use of the Company’s confidential information, or (c) is or has been made known or disclosed to the Investor by a third party without a breach of any obligation of confidentiality such third party may have to the Company; provided, however, that an Investor may disclose confidential information (i) to its attorneys, accountants, consultants, and other professionals to the extent necessary to obtain their services in connection with monitoring its investment in the Company; (ii) to any prospective purchaser of any Registrable Securities from such Investor, if such prospective purchaser agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 3.4; (iii) to any Affiliate, partner, member, stockholder, or wholly owned subsidiary of such Investor in the ordinary course of business, provided that such Investor informs such Person that such information is confidential and directs such Person to maintain the confidentiality of such information; or (iv) as may otherwise be required by law, provided that the Investor promptly notifies the Company of such disclosure and takes reasonable steps to minimize the extent of any such required disclosure.

Exhibit A to Investor Rights Agreement

     For good and valuable consideration, the receipt, adequacy and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each signatory to the Investor Rights Agreement (intending to be legally bound) hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees as follows; capitalized terms used below are defined in Section 15 hereof):

     1. Each Investor and Company agrees that the payment of any and all Junior Liabilities shall be and hereby is expressly made subordinate and junior in right of all Senior Liabilities being Satisfied, and all of the Senior Liabilities shall be Satisfied (including, without limitation, all interest accruing on any Senior Liabilities after commencement of any Proceeding whether or not such interest is allowable in any such Proceeding) before Investor shall be paid anything (of any kind or character, other than the accrual of dividends) on account of any of the Junior Liabilities; and until all of the Senior Liabilities are Satisfied, Company shall not at any time make, and Investor shall not demand, receive, retain, or accept, either directly or indirectly, payment (of any kind or character, other than the accrual of dividends) of all or any part of the Junior Liabilities without the prior written consent of Agent; provided, however, so long as no Senior Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom and Borrowers are in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in the Loan Agreement both immediately before and will be in compliance therewith after any such contemplated payment, Company will be permitted to pay, and Investor may receive and accept, the applicable portion of the Junior Liabilities in cash; provided, further, if any Senior Default then exists or would be created or result, no such payment of any Junior Liabilities will be permitted.

     2. Company shall provide Investor with prompt (and in any event, within ten (10) days of the occurrence of any Senior Default) notice, provided that Agent may, in its sole discretion and without any obligation to do so, provide notice of such Senior Default directly to Investor. If Investor receives any payment from Company in respect of any of the Junior Liabilities in contravention of this Exhibit agreement (this “Exhibit”), such payment shall not be commingled with any assets of Investor, but shall be received and held in trust for Agent and Lenders and promptly turned over and delivered by Investor to Agent.

     3. (a) In the event of any Proceeding, the Senior Liabilities shall first be paid in full before Investor shall be entitled to receive and to retain any payment or distribution in respect of the Junior Liabilities. Agent may, at its sole discretion (and for the benefit of Lenders and Agent), in the name of Investor or otherwise, demand, sue for, collect, receive and receipt for any and all such payments or distributions, and file, prove, and vote or consent in any such proceedings identified in this Section 3(a) with respect to, any and all claims of Investor relating to the Junior Liabilities.

     (b) Until the Senior Liabilities are Satisfied and notwithstanding anything contained in any other instrument, agreement or document to the contrary, Investor shall not take any Subordinated Collection Action unless payment of the Junior Liabilities is otherwise expressly permitted by the terms of Section 1 hereof.

     4. Investor shall not without the prior written consent of Agent: (a) sue for, demand, transfer or assign, or attempt to enforce or collect, any Junior Liabilities or any rights in respect

[Exhibit A to Investor Rights Agreement]



thereof; (b) request, accept or take any lien, assignment, pledge, or security interest in any asset or property of Company as security for any Junior Liabilities; or (c) commence, or join with any other creditor in commencing, any Proceeding, unless in each case payment of the Junior Liabilities is otherwise expressly permitted by the terms of Section 1 hereof. Investor agrees that Investor will not at any time (directly or indirectly) contest the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the security interest and liens in any property or assets of Company granted, conveyed, assigned or pledged to Agent pursuant to the Loan Agreement and the Financing Agreements, and hereby agrees not to hinder Agent or take a position adverse to Agent in the defense of any action contesting the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of any such security interest and liens.

     5. This Exhibit shall in all respects be a continuing agreement and shall remain in full force and effect (notwithstanding, without limitation, any Proceeding) until the earlier of (a) such time as the Senior Liabilities have been Satisfied, and (b) the consummation of the Company’s IPO (as defined in the Investor Rights Agreement).

     6. Agent and Lenders may, from time to time, whether before or after any discontinuance of this Exhibit, at their sole discretion and without notice of any kind to Investor, extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period), alter, amend, modify, refinance or exchange, or release or compromise, any obligation or liability of any nature of any obligor with respect to, in each case, any of the Senior Liabilities, the Loan Agreement or any Financing Agreement (including, without limitation, the terms and provisions relating to the principal amount outstanding thereunder, the rate of interest thereof, the payment terms thereof and the provisions thereof regarding default, or any other matter whatsoever).

     7. Agent shall not be prejudiced in any of its rights under this Exhibit by any act or failure to act of Company, any other Borrower, or Investor, or any noncompliance of Company, any other Borrower or Investor with any agreement or obligation, regardless of any knowledge thereof which Agent may have or with which Agent may be charged.

     8. No delay on the part of Agent in the exercise of any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by Agent of any right or remedy shall preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy; nor shall any modification, amendment or waiver of any of the terms or provisions of this Exhibit be binding upon Agent except as expressly set forth in a writing duly signed and delivered by Agent. Investor acknowledges that Investor has had the opportunity to obtain independent legal advice in connection with the terms and provisions of this Exhibit.

     9. Investor acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Exhibit shall be binding on Investor in favor of any holder of the Senior Liabilities, including without limitation any replacement agent or lender. The provisions of this Exhibit shall be reinstated if at any time any payment of any of the Senior Liabilities is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the holders of the Senior Liabilities for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, any Proceeding) all as though such payment had not been made.

[Exhibit A to Investor Rights Agreement]



     10. Investor shall promptly execute and deliver such further documents or certificates and take such further reasonable action as Agent may from time to time reasonably request to more fully carry out the intent and purpose of this Exhibit.

     13.
