If such Purchaser is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), the Purchaser hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with the purchase of the Shares or any use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Shares, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale, or transfer of the Shares.

Without limiting the foregoing, such Purchaser has received and may continue to receive from the Company certain estimates, projections, forecasts and other forward-looking information, as well as certain business plans and cost-related plan information, regarding the Company, its subsidiaries and their respective businesses and operations, and such Purchaser is making its own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all such estimates, projections, forecasts and other forward-looking information, as well as such business plans and cost-related plan information, and such Purchaser has not relied upon and will not have any claim against the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or any of their respective stockholders, directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, advisors, agents or representatives, or any other Person, with respect thereto.

4.1    Reasonable Best Efforts to Close. The parties shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the conditions to Closing set forth in Article V to be satisfied and close as soon as practicable.

(a)    Agreement to Lock-Up. Each Purchaser hereby agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the Company during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is ninety (90) days after the Closing Date (the “Lock-Up 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 (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 any shares of Common Stock, 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; provided that this Section 4.2 shall not apply to any transfer of Shares by such Purchaser to its Affiliates; provided that, as a condition of such transfer, such Affiliate agrees in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Section 4.2 to the same extent as such Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Purchaser or their respective Permitted Transferees may transfer shares of Common Stock during the Lock-Up Period (x) to (1) such Purchaser’s officers or directors, (2) any immediate family members of such Purchaser’s officers or directors, or (3) any direct or indirect partners, members or equity holders of Purchaser or any related investment funds or vehicles controlled or managed by such persons or entities or their respective affiliates, (y) to the Company; or (z) in connection with a liquidation, merger, stock exchange, reorganization, tender offer approved by the Board or a duly authorized committee thereof or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property subsequent to the Closing Date; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (x)(1) to (x)(3), it shall be a condition to the transfer that the Permitted Transferee execute an agreement stating that the Permitted Transferee is receiving and holding such capital stock subject to this Section 4.2 and there shall be no further transfer of such capital stock except in accordance with this Section 4.2, and provided further that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value. The term “Permitted Transferees” means, prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, any person or entity to whom such Purchaser is permitted to transfer such shares of Common Stock prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period pursuant to this Section 4.2.

(b)    Stop Transfer Instructions. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the shares of Common Stock of such Purchaser (and transferees and assignees thereof) until the end of such restricted period.

4.3    Board Rights. As of the Closing Date, each Purchaser shall have the right (but not the obligation) to nominate two (2) representatives (the “Purchaser Board Designees”) to the Board, subject to the approval by the Board upon a satisfactory background check; provided that each of such Purchaser Board Designees must qualify as an “independent” director as defined under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(a)(2), and shall have provided the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board (the “Nominating Committee”) such information as the Nominating Committee customarily requests pursuant to its charter then in effect or pursuant to the Company’s bylaws, to determine that such Purchaser Board Designees meet the independence requirements under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) and are not otherwise disqualified by applicable Nasdaq or Commission rules or regulations from service on the Board. The Company agrees to take all necessary corporate and other actions, including increasing the size of the Board, if necessary, and filling the resulting vacancy by vote of the Board, to permit the Purchaser Board Designees to be appointed or elected by the members of the Board, pursuant to the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws.

4.4    Management Rights. As of the Closing Date, the Company shall appoint Andy Yoo as the Chief Restructuring Officer of the Company, with broad expense approval authority, subject to the approval by the Board. The Company agrees to take all necessary corporate and other actions, including obtaining prior Board approval of such appointment and designation of authority, pursuant to the Company’s bylaws.

4.5    Further Transfers. Without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 4.2, each Purchaser covenants that the Shares will only be sold, offered for sale, pledged, loaned, or otherwise disposed of pursuant to an effective registration statement under, and in compliance with the requirements of, the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in compliance with any applicable state securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Shares other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144, the Company may require such Purchaser to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by such Purchaser, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration under the Securities Act.

4.6    Indemnification.

(a)    The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchasers, and their respective directors, officers, stockholders, members, partners, employees and agents (and any other persons with a functionally equivalent role of a person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title), each person who controls such Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, stockholders, agents, members, partners or employees (and any other persons with a functionally equivalent role of a person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling person (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnitees”), from and against all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, costs, fees and expenses whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all expenses incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation commenced or threatened) based upon or arising out of the Company’s breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent and only to the extent that any such loss, liability, claim, damage, cost, fee or expense arises out of or is based upon the inaccuracy of any representations made by such indemnified party in this Agreement, or the failure of such indemnified party to comply with the covenants and agreements contained herein.

(b)    Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 4.6 of notice of the commencement of any indemnifiable action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 4.6, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 4.6 except to the extent the indemnified party is actually prejudiced by such omission. In case any such indemnifiable action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the

indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein, and to the extent that it may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such indemnifiable action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and either (i) the indemnifying party or parties and the indemnified party or parties mutually agree or (ii) representation of both the indemnifying party or parties and the indemnified party or parties by the same counsel is inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct due to actual or potential differing interests between them, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such indemnifiable action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense of such indemnifiable action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 4.6 for any reasonable legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed counsel in connection with the assumption of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel in such circumstance), (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the indemnifiable action or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party shall (i) without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened indemnifiable action in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such indemnifiable action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent requires only the payment of money damages, does not subject the indemnified party to any continuing obligation or require any admission of criminal or civil responsibility, and includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such indemnifiable action, or (ii) be liable for any settlement of any such indemnifiable action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with its written consent or if there be a final judgment of the plaintiff in any such indemnifiable action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.

(c)    Each Purchaser acknowledges on behalf of itself and each Purchaser Indemnitee that, other than for actions seeking specific performance of the obligations under this Agreement or in the case of fraud, the sole and exclusive remedy of such Purchaser and such Purchaser Indemnitee with respect to any and all claims relating to this Agreement shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Section 4.6.
