SECTION 2. Registration Under the Securities Act.

(a) Demand. At any time or from time to time, a Holder or Holders holding a majority of Registrable Securities then outstanding may require the Company to use its best efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all or part of their respective Registrable Securities (subject to any limits that may be imposed by the SEC pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act), by delivering a written request (a “Holder Demand”) therefor to the Company specifying the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be registered and the intended method of distribution thereof. As promptly as practicable, but no later than 10 days after receipt of a Holder Demand, the Company shall give written notice (the “Demand Exercise Notice”) of the Holder Demand to all Holders of Registrable Securities. Such Holders shall have the option, within 10 days after the receipt of the Demand Exercise Notice, to request, in writing, that the Company include in such registration any Registrable Securities held by such Holder (which request shall specify the maximum number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Holder). The Company shall as expeditiously as possible use its best efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of the Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by the Initiating Holder and any other Holders which have made such written request (subject to any limits that may be imposed by the SEC pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act). The Company shall use its best efforts (i) to effect as soon as practicable (but, in any event, within 45 days of the receipt of the Holder Demand or, in the event the SEC reviews and has written comments to the registration statement, within 120 days of the receipt of the Holder Demand) the registration of Registrable Securities for distribution in accordance with the intended method of distribution set forth in a written request delivered by the Majority Participating Holders and (ii) if requested by the Majority Participating Holders, obtain acceleration of the effective date of the registration statement relating to such registration.

(b) Registration Statement Form. Registrations under this Section 2.1 shall be on such appropriate form of the SEC, which the Company is then eligible to use for such purpose (i) as shall be selected by the Company and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Majority Participating Holders and (ii) as shall permit the disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method or methods of disposition

specified in such Participating Holders’ requests for such registration, including, without limitation, a continuous or delayed basis offering pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act to the extent available to the Company. The Company agrees to include in any such registration statement all information which, in the opinion of counsel to the Participating Holders and counsel to the Company, is necessary or desirable to be included therein.

(c) Expenses. The Company shall pay, and shall be responsible for, all Registration Expenses in connection with any registration requested pursuant to this Section 2.1.

(d) Effective Registration Statement. A registration requested pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall not be deemed a Demand Registration (including for purposes of Section 2.1(g)) unless a registration statement with respect thereto has become effective and unless the Participating Holders are able to sell at least 80% of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration; provided, that a registration which is withdrawn at the sole request of the Majority Participating Holders pursuant to Section 2.1(f) will count as a Demand Registration unless (i) the Demand Registration does not become effective because a material adverse change has occurred, or is reasonably likely to occur, in the condition (financial or otherwise), prospects, business, assets or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole subsequent to the date of the delivery of the Demand Exercise Notice, (ii) after the Demand Registration has become effective, such registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction, or other order or requirement of the SEC or other governmental agency or court, (iii) the Demand Registration is withdrawn at the request of the Majority Participating Holders due to the advice of the managing underwriter(s) that the Registrable Securities covered by the registration statement could not be sold in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Majority Participating Holders, (iv) the Demand Registration is withdrawn for any reason at any time during a Postponement Period or within 10 days thereafter or (v) the Participating Holders reimburse the Company for any and all Registration Expenses incurred by the Company in connection with such request for a Demand Registration that was withdrawn or not pursued, in which case the Demand Registration shall not be deemed to have been effected and will not count as a Demand Registration.

(e) Selection of Underwriters. The underwriters of each underwritten offering of the Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall be selected by the Majority Participating Holders, which underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company.

(f) Right to Withdraw. Any Participating Holder shall have the right to withdraw its request for inclusion of Registrable Securities in any registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.1 at any time prior to the effective date of such registration statement by giving written notice to the Company of its request to withdraw. Upon receipt of notices from the Majority Participating Holders to such effect, the Company shall cease all efforts to obtain effectiveness of the applicable registration statement, and whether the Initiating Holder’s request for registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall be counted as a Demand Registration for purposes of Section 2.1(g) shall be determined in accordance with Section 2.1(d) above.

(g) Limitations on Registration on Demand. The Holders shall be entitled to require the Company to effect, and the Company shall be required to effect, three (3) registrations in the aggregate pursuant to this Section 2.1 (each, a “Demand Registration”): provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to have a registration statement declared effective pursuant to a Demand Registration until at least 90 days after the effective date of any other registration statement filed by the Company pursuant to a previous Demand Registration.

(h) Priority in Registrations on Demand. If any registration pursuant to a Holder Demand involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter(s) of such offering shall inform the Company in writing of its belief that the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration pursuant to this Section 2.1, when added to the number of any other securities to be offered in such registration, would materially adversely affect such offering, then the Participating Holders shall be entitled to participate on a pro rata basis based on the number of shares of Registrable Securities requested to be included in the offering by each such Participating Holder prior to the inclusion of any securities other than Registrable Securities.

(i) Postponement. The Company shall be entitled once in any twelve month period to postpone for a reasonable period of time (but not exceeding 60 days) (the “Postponement Period”) the filing of any registration statement required to be prepared and filed by it pursuant to this Section 2.1 if the Company determines, in its reasonable judgment, upon advice of counsel, as authorized by a resolution of the Board of Directors, that such registration and offering would require premature disclosure of any material financing, material corporate reorganization or other material transaction involving the Company, and promptly gives the Participating Holders written notice of such determination, containing, to the extent each such Participating Holder agrees to keep such information confidential in accordance with Regulation FD, a specific statement of the reasons for such postponement and an approximation of the anticipated delay.

2.2. Incidental Registration.

(a) Right to Include Registrable Securities. If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its equity securities under the Securities Act by registration on Form S-l, S-2 or S-3, or any successor or similar form(s) (except registrations (i) pursuant to Section 2.1, (ii) solely for registration of equity securities in connection with an employee benefit plan (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) or dividend reinvestment plan or stock option or stock incentive plan on Form S-8 or any successor form thereto, (iii) in connection with any acquisition or merger on Form S-4 or any successor form thereto, or (iv) of the Common Stock issuable to Lincoln Park pursuant to the equity line of credit to be entered into by the Company with Lincoln Park pursuant to the Term Sheet dated as of January 20, 2014 between the Company and Lincoln Park and the Common Stock to be issued to Lincoln Park and no more than one other investor in connection therewith in a bridge financing at $.55 per share for gross proceeds of up to $1 million (the “Lincoln Equity Line”)), whether or not for sale for its own account, it will at each such time give prompt written notice (but in no event less than 30 days prior to the initial filing of a registration statement with respect thereto) to each of the Holders of its intention to do so and such notice shall offer the Holders of such Registrable Securities the opportunity to register under such registration statement such number of Registrable Securities as each such Holder may request in writing. Upon the written request of any

of the Holders (which request shall specify the maximum number of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Holder), made as promptly as practicable and in any event within 20 days after the receipt of any such notice, the Company shall include in such registration under the Securities Act all Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by each Holder; provided, however, that if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any equity securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register or to delay registration of such equity securities, the Company shall give written notice of such determination and its reasons therefor to the Holders and (i) in the case of a determination not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration (but not from any obligation of the Company to pay the Registration Expenses in connection therewith as provided for in Section 2.2(d)), without prejudice, however, to the rights of the Holders to request that such registration be effected as a registration under Section 2.1 and (ii) in the case of a determination to delay registering, shall be permitted to delay registering any Registrable Securities, for the same period as the delay in registering such other securities. No registration effected under this Section 2.2 shall relieve the Company of its obligation to effect any registration upon request under Section 2.1.

(b) Right to Withdraw; Option to Participate in Shelf Takedowns. Any Holder shall have the right to withdraw its request for inclusion of Registrable Securities in any registration statement pursuant to this Section 2.2 at any time prior to the effective date of such registration statement by giving written notice to the Company of its request to withdraw. In the event that the Holder has requested inclusion of Registrable Securities in a shelf registration, the Holder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in any offering of the Company’s equity securities under such shelf registration.

(c) Priority in Incidental Registrations. If any registration pursuant to this Section 2.2 involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriter(s) of such offering shall inform the Company in writing of its belief that the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration or offering, when added to the number of other equity securities to be offered in such registration or offering, would materially adversely affect such offering, then the Company shall include in such registration or offering, to the extent of the number and type which the Company is so advised can be sold in (or during the time of) such registration or offering without so materially adversely affecting such registration or offering (the “Section 2.2 Sale Amount”), (i) all of the securities proposed by the Company to be sold for its own account; (ii) thereafter, to the extent the Section 2.2 Sale Amount is not exceeded, the Registrable Securities requested by the Participating Holders (provided that if all of the Registrable Securities requested by the Participating Holders may not be included, the Participating Holders shall be entitled to participate on a pro rata basis based on the aggregate number of shares of Registrable Securities requested by the Participating Holders to be registered); and (iii) thereafter, to the extent the Section 2.2 Sale Amount is not exceeded, any other securities of the Company requested to be included by Company stockholders holding other such registration rights on a pro rata basis based on the aggregate number of shares requested by the Participating Holders and the other Company stockholders to be registered; provided, that in any event the Participating Holders of Registrable Securities shall be entitled to register at least 30% of the securities to be included in any such registration.

(d) Expenses. The Company shall pay, and shall be responsible for, all Registration Expenses in connection with any registration requested pursuant to this Section 2.2.

(e) Selection of Underwriters. The underwriters of each underwritten offering of the Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be selected by the Company provided that the Majority Participating Holders shall have the right to select a co-managing underwriter.

(f) Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 2.2 prior to the effectiveness of such registration, whether or not any Holder has elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration.

2.3. Registration Procedures.

(a) If and whenever the Company is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to either Section 2.1 or Section 2.2 hereof, the Company shall use its best efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall act as expeditiously as possible:

Each Participating Holder shall be a party to such underwriting agreement; provided, that no Participating Holder shall be required to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Participating Holder, its ownership of and title to the Registrable Securities and its intended method of distribution; and any liability of any Participating Holder to any underwriter or other person under such underwriting agreement shall be limited to liability arising from breach of its representations and warranties and shall be limited to an amount equal to the proceeds (net of expenses and underwriting discounts and commissions) that it derives from such registration.

(b) Incidental Underwritten Offerings. In the case of a registration pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof, if the Company shall have determined to enter into an underwriting agreement in connection therewith, all of the Registrable Securities to be included in such registration shall be subject to such underwriting agreement. Each Participating Holder shall be a party to such underwriting agreement; provided, that no Participating Holder shall be required to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Participating Holder, its ownership of and title to the Registrable Securities and its intended method of distribution; and any liability of any Participating Holder to any underwriter or other Person under such underwriting agreement shall be limited to liability arising from breach of its representations and warranties and shall be limited to an amount equal to the proceeds (net of expenses and underwriting discounts and commissions) that it derives from such registration.

2.5. Preparation; Reasonable Investigation. In connection with the preparation and filing of each registration statement under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will give the Participating Holders, the managing underwriter(s), and their respective counsel, accountants and other representatives and agents the opportunity to participate in the preparation of such registration statement, each prospectus included therein or filed with the SEC, and each amendment thereof or supplement thereto or comparable statements under securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction, and give each of the foregoing parties access to its books and records, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, and such opportunities to discuss the business of the Company and its subsidiaries with their respective directors, officers and employees and the independent public accountants who have certified the Company and its subsidiaries’ financial statements, and supply all other information and respond to all inquiries requested by such Participating Holders, managing underwriter(s), or their respective counsel, accountants or other representatives or agents in connection with such registration statement, as shall be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of counsel to such Participating Holder or managing underwriter(s), to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act, and the Company shall not file any registration statement or amendment thereto or any prospectus or supplement thereto to which the Majority Participating Holders or the managing underwriter(s) shall object.

2.6. Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees that in the event of any registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, the Company shall, and hereby does, indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) each of the Holders and their Affiliates, (ii) each of the Holders’ and their Affiliates’ respective Affiliates, officers, directors, successors, assigns, members, partners, shareholders, employees, advisors, representatives, and agents, (iii) each other Person who participates as an underwriter or Qualified Independent Underwriter in the offering or sale of such securities, (iv) each Person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) any of the Persons listed in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) and (v) any representative (legal or otherwise) of any of the

Persons listed in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any losses, penalties, fines, liens, judgments, suits, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and any amounts paid in any settlement effected in compliance with Section 2.6(e)) or liabilities, joint or several (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof, and whether or not such Indemnitee is a party thereto) (“Losses”), to which such Indemnitee has become or may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such Losses arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement under which such securities were registered under the Securities Act, or any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, any amendment or supplement thereto, or any documents incorporated by reference therein, (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation by the Company of any federal, state or common law rule or regulation applicable to the Company and relating to action required of or inaction by the Company in connection with any such registration, and the Company shall reimburse such Indemnitee for any reasonable legal or any other fees or expenses incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such Loss; provided that the Company shall not be liable to an Indemnitee to the extent that any such Loss arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, any such preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement, or document incorporated by reference, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Indemnitee, which specifically states that it is for use in the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement.

(b) Indemnification by Participating Holders. As a condition to including any Registrable Securities in any registration statement, the Company shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from each Participating Holder so including any Registrable Securities to, severally and not jointly, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless (i) the Company, each director and officer of the Company (including each officer of the Company that signed the registration statement), employees and agents and each other Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or Exchange Act and (ii) any underwriters of the Registrable Securities, their officers and directors and each person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act), with respect to any statement or alleged statement in or omission or alleged omission from such registration statement, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, but only to the extent such statement or alleged statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Participating Holder to the Company specifically for use in the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement and such Participating Holder shall reimburse such Indemnified Party for any reasonable legal or

any other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Loss; provided, however, that the liability of such Indemnifying Party under this Section 2.6(b) shall be limited to the amount of proceeds (net of expenses and underwriting discounts and commissions) received by such Indemnifying Party in the offering giving rise to such liability. Each Participating Holder shall also indemnify and hold harmless all other prospective sellers and Participating Holders, their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, successors, assigns, members, partners, shareholders, employees, advisors, representatives, and agents, and each Person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) any such seller or Participating Holder to the same extent as provided above with respect to indemnification of the Company and underwriters.

(c) Notices of Claims. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in Section 2.6(a) or Section 2.6(b), such Indemnified Party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an Indemnifying Party, give written notice to such Indemnifying Party of the commencement of such action or proceeding; provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under Section 2.6(a) or Section 2.6(b), except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice, and shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which it may have to the Indemnified Party otherwise than under this Section 2.6.

(d) Defense of Claims. In case any such action or proceeding is brought against an Indemnified Party, except as provided for in the next sentence, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate therein and assume the defense thereof, jointly with any other Indemnifying Party, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and after notice from the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the defense thereof and approval by the Indemnified Party of such counsel, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than costs of investigation and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in such defense at its own expense. If (i) the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified Party in writing, within 15 days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the action or proceeding, that the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against all Losses the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the claim, (ii) the Indemnifying Party fails to provide the Indemnified Party with evidence acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party will have the financial resources to defend against the claim or proceeding and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder, (iii) the Indemnifying Party fails to defend diligently the action or proceeding within 15 days after receiving notice of such failure from such Indemnified Party; (iv) such Indemnified Party reasonably shall have concluded (upon advice of its counsel) that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such Indemnified Party or other indemnified parties which are not available to the Indemnifying Party; or (v) if such Indemnified Party reasonably shall have concluded (upon advice of its counsel) that, with respect to such claims, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party may have different, conflicting, or adverse legal positions or interests then, in any such case, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to assume or continue its own defense and the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any fees and expenses therefor; provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (and such other local counsel as the Indemnified Parties shall determine to be reasonably necessary) at any time for all Indemnified Parties.

(e) Consent to Entry of Judgment and Settlements. No Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any settlement of any action or proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided, that, in the case where the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to take any of the actions listed in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the last sentence of Section 2.6(d), the Indemnified Party shall have the right to compromise or settle such action on behalf of and for the account, expense, and risk of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party will remain responsible for any Losses the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the action or proceeding to the fullest extent provided in this Section 2.6. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (A) includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such action or claim, (B) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any Indemnified Party and (C) does not require any inaction or action other than the payment of money by the Indemnifying Party.

(f) Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in Sections 2.6(a), (b) or (g) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or insufficient in respect of any Losses referred to therein, then, in lieu of the amount paid or payable under Sections 2.6(a), (b) or (g), the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Party as a result of such Loss (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party on the other, with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted in such Loss, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law or if the allocation provided in this clause (ii) provides a greater amount to the Indemnified Party than clause (i) above, in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect not only the relative fault but also the relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party from the offering of the securities covered by such registration statement as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 2.6(f) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the preceding sentence of this Section 2.6(f). No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 1l(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the Losses referred to in Sections 2.6(a), (b) or (g) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 2.6(a), (b) and (g), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.6(f) to the contrary, no Participating Holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the proceeds (net of expenses and underwriting discounts and commissions) received by such Participating Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities in the offering to which the Losses of the indemnified parties relate.

(g) Other Indemnification. Indemnification and contribution similar to that specified in the preceding subsections of this Section 2.6 (with appropriate modifications) shall be given by the Company and the Participating Holders with respect to any required registration or other qualification of securities under state or “blue sky” law or regulation. The indemnification agreements contained in this Section 2.6 shall be in addition to any other rights to indemnification or contribution which any Indemnified Party may have pursuant to law or contract and shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnitee or other Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of any of the Registrable Securities by any such party.

(h) Indemnification Payments. The indemnification and contribution required by this Section 2.6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or a Loss is incurred.

2.7. Limitation on Sale of Securities.

(a) For the Company and Others. If the Company receives a request for registration pursuant to an underwritten offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2 hereof, and if such a request is being implemented or has not been withdrawn or abandoned, the Company agrees that (i) the Company shall not effect any public or private offer, sale, distribution or other disposition of any of its equity securities or of any security convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity security of the Company or effect any registration of any of such securities under the Securities Act (in each case, other than (x) option grants to employees pursuant to the Company’s option plan, (y) as part of such registration and (z) as a registration using Form S-8 or any successor or similar form which is then in effect), whether or not for sale for its own account, during the period beginning on the date the Company receives such request until 90 days after the effective date of such registration (or such shorter period as the managing underwriter(s) may require) and (ii) the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from each of its officers, directors and beneficial owners of 5% or more of Common Stock, an agreement not to effect any public or private offer, sale, distribution or other disposition of Common Stock, or any securities that are convertible or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock, during the period referred to in clause (i) of this paragraph, including, without limitation, a sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

(b) For the Holders. If the Company receives a request for registration pursuant to an underwritten offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2 hereof, and if such a request is being implemented or has not been withdrawn or abandoned, each Holder agrees that, to the extent requested in writing by the managing underwriter(s); it will not effect any public or private offer, sale, distribution or other disposition of any Registrable Securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such Registrable Securities (other than the conversion of shares of the Convertible Note), including, without limitation,

any sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, during the 90-day period beginning on the effective date of such registration statement (or such shorter period as the managing underwriter(s) may require), provided, that each Holder has received the written notice required by Sections 2.1(a) and 2.2(a); and further, provided, that in connection with such underwritten offering each officer and director of the Company and all stockholders owning more than 5% of the Company’s Common Stock are subject to restrictions substantially equivalent to those imposed on the Holders.

2.8. No Required Sale. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to create an independent obligation on the part of any of the Holders to sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to any effective registration statement.

2.9. Rule 144; Rule 144A; Regulation S. The Company covenants that, at its own expense, it will file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and it will take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (i) Rules 144, 144A or Regulation S under the Securities Act or (ii) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the request of a Holder, the Company, at its own expense, will promptly deliver to such Holder (i) a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements (and such Holder shall be entitled to rely upon the accuracy of such written statement), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and (iii) such other reports and documents as such Holder may reasonably request in order to avail itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing it to sell any Registrable Securities without registration.

2.10. Adjustments. At the request of any Holder, in the event of any change in the capitalization of the Company as a result of any stock split, stock dividend, reverse split, combination, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 2 shall be appropriately adjusted. The Company agrees that it shall not effect or permit to occur any combination or subdivision of shares which would adversely affect the ability of the Holders to include any Registrable Securities in any registration contemplated by this Agreement.

SECTION 3. Subsequent Registration Rights; No Inconsistent Agreements.

3.1. Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. Except with respect to the registration of the Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Lincoln Equity Line, from and after the date of this Agreement and for so long as the (x) the Convertible Note remains outstanding, (y) the Warrant remains outstanding or (z) the Investor Percentage Interest (as defined in the Investor Right Agreement between Investor and the Company dated January 28, 2014) is 0.5% or greater, without the prior written consent of the Investor, the Company shall not enter into an agreement that grants a holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company demand or incidental registration rights that by their terms are not subordinate to the registration rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement. Except with respect to the registration of the shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Lincoln Equity Line, so long as the Holders hold Registrable Securities, the Company shall not enter into any agreement granting a holder or prospective holder of securities of the Company registration rights that are senior to the

rights of the Holders hereunder and if, after the date of this Agreement, the Company enters into any other agreement with respect to the registration of any of its equity securities, and the terms contained therein are more favorable to, or less restrictive on, the other party thereto than the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement (insofar as they are applicable) with respect to the Holders, then the terms of this Agreement shall immediately be deemed to have been amended without further action by the Company or the Holders so that the Holders shall be entitled to the benefit of any such more favorable or less restrictive terms or conditions.

3.2. No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company will not, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities which is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders in Section 2 or otherwise conflicts with the provisions of Section 2, other than any customary lock-up agreement with the underwriters in connection with any offering effected hereunder, pursuant to which the Company shall agree not to register for sale, and the Company shall agree not to sell or otherwise dispose of, Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, for a specified period (not to exceed 180 days) following such offering. The Company warrants that the rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with and are not inconsistent with any other agreements to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound. The Company has not previously entered into any agreement with respect to its securities granting any registration rights to any Person that is in force or effect as of the date hereof or will become effective after the date hereof.

SECTION 4. Miscellaneous.

4.1. Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement and any of the provisions hereof may be amended, waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), modified or supplemented, in whole or in part, only by written agreement of the Company and the Investor; provided, however, that any amendment, waiver, modification or supplement of Section 2.6 shall require the written agreement of the Company and Holders holding at least a majority of the Registrable Securities; and provided, further, that the observance of any provision of this Agreement may be waived in writing by the party that will lose the benefit of such provision as a result of such waiver. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach, except as otherwise explicitly provided for in such waiver. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder, or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The execution of a counterpart signature page to this Agreement after the date hereof by any Person as provided for herein shall not require consent of any party hereto and shall not be deemed an amendment to this Agreement.

4.2. Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and any of their respective successors, personal representatives and permitted assigns who agree in writing to be bound by the terms hereof. The Company may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its duties under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Holders. Any Holder may, at its election and at any time or from time to time, assign its rights and delegate its duties under this Agreement, in whole or in part, to an Affiliate or to any Person to whom the Holder sells, assigns or otherwise transfers any of its Registrable Securities (an “Assignee”); provided that, no such assignment shall be binding upon or obligate the Company to any such Assignee unless and until the Assignee delivers to the Company (i) a written notice stating the

name and address of the Assignee and identifying the securities with respect to which such rights are being assigned, if any, and (ii) a written instrument by which such Assignee agrees to be bound by the obligations imposed upon Holders under this Agreement to the same extent as if such Assignee were a party hereto (or executes and delivers to the Company a counterpart to this Agreement and agrees to be treated as a “Holder” for all purposes of this Agreement).

4.3. Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever, under or by reason of this Agreement, other than Persons entitled to indemnification under Section 2.6.

4.4. Notice. Unless otherwise provided herein, all notices, requests, demands, claims and other communications provided for under the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally, by facsimile (with receipt confirmed telephonically) or sent by certified, registered or express mail, postage prepaid.

4.5. Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed by, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws.

(b) Waiver of Jury Trial. With respect to any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, each of the parties hereby irrevocably, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law that cannot be waived, waives, and covenants that it will not assert (whether as plaintiff, defendant or otherwise), any right to trial by jury in any action arising in whole or in part under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise, and agrees that any of them may file a copy of this paragraph with any court as written evidence of the knowing, voluntary and bargained-for agreement among the parties irrevocably to waive its right to trial by jury in any action or proceeding whatsoever between them relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Such action or proceeding shall instead be tried by a judge sitting without a jury.

4.6. Remedies. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or was otherwise breached and further agree that money damages or other remedy at law would not be a sufficient or adequate remedy for any breach or violation of, or a default under, this Agreement by them and that, in addition to all other remedies available to them, each of them shall be entitled to an injunction restraining such breach, violation or default or threatened breach, violation or default and to any other equitable relief, including, without limitation, specific performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond with respect to such remedy are hereby waived by each of the parties hereto. Each party further agrees that, in the event of any action for an injunction or other equitable remedy in respect of such breach or enforcement of specific performance, it will not assert the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. In any action or proceeding brought to enforce any provision of this Agreement (including the indemnification provisions thereof), or where any provision hereof is validly asserted as a defense, the successful party to such action or proceeding shall be entitled to recover, to the extent permitted by applicable law, attorneys’ fees in addition to its costs and expenses and any other available remedy.

4.7. Further Assurances. Each party hereto shall cooperate with each other party, shall do and perform or cause to be done and performed all further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all other agreements, certificates, instruments, and documents as any other party hereto reasonably may request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

4.8. Severability. If any one or more of the provisions contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstance, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions hereof shall not be in any way impaired, unless the provisions held invalid, illegal or unenforceable shall substantially impair the benefits of the remaining provisions hereof.

4.9. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Settlement Agreement, the Convertible Note, the Warrant and the documents referred to herein or therein or delivered pursuant hereto or thereto, are intended by the parties as a final expression of their agreement and intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein and therein. There are no restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein or therein. This Agreement, the Settlement Agreement, the Convertible Note, the Warrant and the documents referred to herein or therein or delivered pursuant hereto or thereto, supersede all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter.

4.10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, all of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

4.11. Defaults. A default by any party to this Agreement in such party’s compliance with any of the conditions or covenants hereof or performance of any of the obligations of such party hereunder shall not constitute a default by any other party.

4.12. General Interpretive Principles. Whenever used in this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires, any noun or pronoun shall be deemed to include the plural as well as the singular and to cover all genders. The headings of the sections, paragraphs, subparagraphs, clauses and subclauses of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions hereof. Unless otherwise specified, the terms “hereof,” “herein” and similar terms refer to this Agreement as a whole, and references herein to Sections refer to Sections of this Agreement. Words of inclusion shall not be construed as terms of limitation herein, so that references to “include,” “includes” and “including” shall not be limiting and shall be regarded as references to non-exclusive and non-characterizing illustrations.
