8. Piggyback Registration Rights.

8.1 If at any time prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company shall determine to register any of its securities under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC Rules”), either for its own account or the account of a security holder or security holders, other than (i) registration in connection with the Company’s first Public offering; (ii) registration of securities of the Company held by its securityholders, including registration pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, dated as of July 15, 2014, as amended from time to time, between the Company, Acacia and certain of the Company’s stockholders (“IRA”); (iii) a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans of the Company, including any registration pursuant to Form S-8, (iv) a registration relating solely to a Rule 145 transaction, or (v) a registration on any registration form under the SEC Rules that does not permit secondary sales, the Company will:

(a) promptly deliver to each Lender written notice thereof; and

-10-

(b) use its reasonable best efforts to include in such registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), except as set forth in Section 7.2 below, and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities (as defined below) specified in a written request or requests made by any Lender and delivered to the Company within twenty (20) days after the written notice is delivered by the Company. Such written request may include all or a portion of a Lender’s Registrable Securities. The term “Registrable Securities” shall mean: (i) the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Agreement; (ii) and the Warrants and shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the exercises of Warrants issued under this Agreement; and (iii) shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the outstanding principal and accrued interest under the Secured Promissory Notes in accordance with the terms thereof. The term “Registrable Securities” shall not include shares held by any Lender if such shares are eligible for sale pursuant to Rule 144 without any volume limitation.

8.2 If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Lender as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 7.1(a). In such event, the right of any Lender to registration shall be conditioned upon such Lender’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Lenders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company and the other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into and perform their obligations under an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, if the managing underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the managing underwriter may exclude all Registrable Securities from, or limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in, the registration and underwriting. The Company shall so advise the Lenders of securities requesting registration, and the number of shares of securities that are entitled to be included in the registration and the allocation of the securities in the underwriting. If any person who has requested inclusion in such registration as provided above disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such person shall be excluded therefrom by written notice delivered by the Company or the managing underwriter. Any Registrable Securities and/or other securities so excluded or withdrawn shall also be withdrawn from registration.

8.3 Any registration effected by the Company pursuant to this Section 8 shall be subject to the provisions set forth in Sections 1.6 through 1.13 of the IRA.

8.4 Acacia hereby approves the grant of the piggyback registration rights hereunder to the other Lender (or such Lender’s permitted transferees) for purposes of Section 5.3(c) of the Investment Agreement, to the extent set forth therein.

9. Board Observation Right. Immediately following the Effective Date, Veritone LOC I, LLC may appoint one individual as an observer with the right to attend regular meetings of the Board of Directors of the Company, provided that such observer’s right to attend board meetings shall terminate immediately upon the earlier of (i) repayment in full of all outstanding principal and accrued interest under the Secured Promissory Notes, (ii) automatic conversion of the Secured Promissory Notes upon the consummation of the first Public Offering pursuant to Section 6(a) of the Secured Promissory Notes or (iii) the completion of the Company’s initial Public Offering (as that term is defined in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation).

(c) The Company shall breach or fail to observe or perform in any material respect any covenant, obligation, condition or agreement contained the this Agreement and (i) such breach or failure shall continue for fifteen (15) days from the Company’s receipt of written notice of such failure from any of the Lenders, or (ii) if such failure is not curable within such 15-day period, but is reasonably capable of cure within thirty (30) days, either (A) such failure shall continue for thirty (30) days from the Company’s receipt of such notice or (B) the Company shall not have commenced a cure in a manner reasonably satisfactory to each of the Lenders within the initial 15-day period.
