(i) Such Purchaser has been advised that the Notes and the Warrants (and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof) have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT"), or any state securities laws and, therefore, cannot be resold unless they are registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or unless an exemption from such registration requirements is available.

(iv) Such Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the Notes and the Warrants (and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof) may not be resold or otherwise transferred except in a transaction registered under the Securities Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available. Such Purchaser understands that the Notes and the Warrants (and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof) will be imprinted with a legend that prohibits the transfer of such securities unless (A) they are registered or such registration is not required, and (B) if the transfer is pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and, if the Company shall so request in writing, an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company is obtained to the effect that the transaction is so exempt.

Such Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has given such Purchaser access to the corporate records and accounts of the Company and to all information in its possession relating to the Company, has made its officers and representatives available for interview by such Purchaser, and has furnished such Purchaser with all documents and other information requested by such Purchaser to make an informed decision with respect to the purchase of the Notes and the Warrants. 7 (d) No Legal, Tax or Investment Advice. Such Purchaser understands that nothing in this Agreement or any other materials presented to such Purchaser in connection with the purchase of the Notes or the Warrants constitutes legal, tax or investment advice.

Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be valid, legal and enforceable under all applicable laws and regulations. If, however, any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable under any such law or regulation in any jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be deemed modified to conform to the minimum requirements of such law or regulation, or if for any reason it is not deemed so modified, it shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable only to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or limitation on enforceability without affecting the remaining provisions of this Agreement, or the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other 13 jurisdiction. (l) Sharing (i) The Company agrees that all payments on account of the Notes shall be made ratably among the Purchasers in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares (as defined herein). For the purposes of this Section 6(l) a conversion of any Note in accordance with the terms thereof shall not be considered a payment on account of such Note. For avoidance of doubt, in the event that a Transaction Fee (as defined in the Notes) is payable pursuant to any Note, the Company shall not make payments on account of such Transaction Fee to the holder of any Note who (pursuant to the terms of their Note) is not entitled to receive a Transaction Fee from the Company. The Company agrees that it shall not, without the prior consent of the Majority Purchasers, amend the provisions of any Note. (ii) Each Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that all Debt Payments (as defined herein) on account of the Obligations (as such term is defined in the Security Agreement) shall be made on a pro rata basis, in accordance with each Purchaser's Pro Rata Share at the time of payment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Purchaser agrees that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default (as such term is defined in the Notes) and so long as such Event of Default continues, any and all Debt Payments shall be applied in the following order: (1) first, for application to the payment of any fees, costs, expenses of the Purchasers in connection with the enforcement of the Notes and the Collateral (as such term is defined in the Security Agreement); and (2) second, ratably in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, for application to the payment of (A) accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes, then (B) the outstanding principal of the Notes and (C) the other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, and without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, in no event shall a Purchaser be required to share any Transaction Fee (as defined in the Notes) payable to it in respect of the Notes with any Purchaser who is not entitled to receive a Transaction Fee pursuant to the terms of its Note. (iii) If, despite the provisions of this Section 6(l), any Purchaser shall receive any Debt Payment in excess of its Pro Rata Share to which it is then entitled in accordance with this Agreement, such Purchaser shall hold such excess Debt Payment in trust for the benefit of the Purchasers entitled thereto and promptly pay over or deliver such excess Debt Payment to the other Purchasers for application in accordance with this Agreement. Additionally, such Purchaser shall, if so required by the Majority Purchasers, purchase from the other Purchasers such participations in their respective Obligations as shall be required by them to permit the sharing of such excess Debt Payment in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement. If all or any portion of such excess Debt Payment is thereafter recovered by or on behalf of the Company from such Purchaser, each other party which shares in the benefit thereof shall return to such Purchaser its portion of the payment so recovered. (iv) Subject to Section 6(a) and the express terms of the Transaction Documents, each of the Purchasers hereby agrees that the Majority Purchasers shall have the right, power and authority to direct the manner of any and all action taken by the Purchasers and the Representative (as defined 14 below) in respect of (A) the enforcement of the Transaction Documents or remedial action in respect thereof and (B) the granting of waivers or making of amendments with respect to any Transaction Documents and further agrees that any such direction by or approval of the Majority Purchasers shall be binding on all Purchasers. Subject to subsection (v), nothing in the foregoing shall prevent or restrict the ability of any Purchaser to exercise any enforcement rights of such Purchaser (to the extent not inconsistent with a direction from the Majority Purchasers as to the manner of the enforcement of remedies). (v) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if so directed by the Majority Purchasers, no Purchaser shall, or if already commenced shall continue in, any of the following actions (unless authorized by the Majority Purchasers): (1) accelerate or otherwise make due and payable prior to the original stated maturity thereof any Obligations or bring suit or institute any other actions or proceedings to enforce its rights or interests under or in respect of any Transaction Document; (2) exercise any right of set-off, counterclaim, banker's lien or other claim it may have against the Company or any other person with respect to the Obligations; (3) exercise any rights under or with respect to (A) guaranties of the Obligations, or (B) any Collateral, including causing or compelling the pledge or delivery of any Collateral, any attachment of, levy upon, execution against, foreclosure upon or the taking of other action against or institution of other proceedings with respect to any Collateral, notifying any account debtors of the Company or asserting any claim or interest in any insurance with respect to any Collateral, or release any Collateral or other guaranties; or (4) commence, or cause to be commenced, or join with any creditor in commencing, any bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceeding against the Company. (vi) Each Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that neither any other Purchaser nor the Representative (nor any of their officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors or attorneys) has represented it or otherwise been responsible for acting for it in connection with the preparation, negotiation or execution and delivery of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the Common Stock Purchase Agreement and that each Purchaser has made its own independent review and appraisal of, and sought its own independent advice (and, if it has not sought such advice, assumes the risks associated with not obtaining such advice) regarding, the terms of the Transaction Documents or the Common Stock Purchase Agreement and structure of the transactions contemplated thereby, the scope and nature of the Collateral, the financial or other condition of the Company, its Subsidiaries and all other matters pertaining to the Transaction Documents or the Common Stock Purchase Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby. Neither any Purchaser nor the Representative shall have any obligation or duty to ensure the compliance by the Company or any Purchaser or the Representative with the conditions specified in any Transaction 15 Document for any extension of credit to the Company. Each Purchaser by executing this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted and to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to the Purchasers. Each Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that: (A) neither any Purchaser nor the Representative has any implied or other duties to any other Purchaser or any other Person; (B) except as otherwise expressly agreed herein, each Purchaser can advance its own interests as it sees fit; and (C) no other role or position of any Purchaser or the Representative or any Affiliate, officer, employee, attorney or agent of any Purchaser or the Representative with respect to the Company, a Purchaser or any other Person, shall impair or alter any the Purchaser's or Representative's rights or otherwise create any liability or obligation to the other Purchasers. (vii) Each Purchaser has itself been, and will continue to be, based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal of and investigations into the financial condition, creditworthiness, condition, affairs, status and nature of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and the nature and value of any Obligation and Collateral. Accordingly, each Purchaser confirms to the other Purchasers and the Representative that it has not relied, and will not hereafter rely, on the other Purchasers or the Representative (A) to check or inquire on such Purchaser's behalf into the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of any information provided by the Company or any other person under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, Control Agreement or the Common Stock Purchase Agreement (whether or not such information has been or is hereafter distributed to such Purchaser), or (B) to assess or keep under review on such Purchaser's behalf, the financial condition, creditworthiness, condition, affairs, status or nature of the Company, any Subsidiary or the nature or value of any Collateral. (viii) Each of the Purchasers and the Representative and their respective Affiliates may make loans to, acquire equity interests in, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, equity investment, venture capital, or other business with the Company or its Subsidiaries or the Purchasers and their Affiliates as though such Purchaser or Representative (as applicable) was not a Purchaser or Representative hereunder and without notice to or consent of the other Purchasers. The Purchasers acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, a Purchaser or Representative (as applicable) or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such person) and acknowledge that such Purchaser or Representative (as applicable) shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. (ix) This Section 6(l) been entered into for the sole protection and benefit of the Purchasers, Representative and their respective successors and assigns, and no other person, including, but not limited to the Company, shall be a direct or indirect beneficiary of, or shall have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Section 6(l).

(ix) Benefits of Agreement. This Section 6(n) been entered into for the sole protection and benefit of the Purchasers, Representative and their respective successors and assigns, and no other person, including, but not limited to the Company, shall be a direct or indirect beneficiary of, or shall have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Section 6(n). (o) Public Announcement. Except as may be required by law or regulation, the Company shall not use the name of, or make reference to, any Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in any press release or in any public manner (including any reports or filings made by the Company under the Exchange Act) without such Purchaser's prior written consent which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The initial press release with respect to the execution of this Agreement shall be approved by the Company and Sprout Capital IX, L.P. and [Sanderling Ventures and Affiliates] on behalf of the Purchasers. Thereafter, so long as this Agreement is in effect, the Company and the Purchasers shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that the Company, on the one hand, and the Purchasers, on the other hand, may, without the prior consent of the other party, issue a press release or make such public statement as may, upon the advice of counsel, be required by law if it has used all reasonable efforts to consult with the other party and the Purchasers may make public statements in 20 connection with the exercise of their remedies under the Transaction Documents and, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, in connection with transfers of the Notes and Warrants. (p) Post Closing Matters. Whereas the Company is required, as a condition precedent to the obligations of the Purchasers to purchase the Notes, to deliver certain documents or to perform certain actions prior to the Closing Date. The Company is unable to so deliver all of the documents or to perform all of the actions required by the Purchasers prior to Closing. The Purchasers have agreed, notwithstanding the non-delivery of such documents and non-performance of such actions, to close the purchase of the Notes, but subject to the agreement of the Company to delivery the documents and perform the actions specified in Exhibit F by the dates indicated therein. The Purchasers further acknowledge that such failure to deliver such documents or to perform such actions prior to the dates specified in Exhibit F, shall not, of itself, constitute a breach of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other agreement, the failure of the Company to provide such deliverables or to undertake such actions by the date prescribed in Exhibit F shall be deemed to constitute an immediate Event of Default under the Notes. (q) Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify the Purchasers and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, counsel and other advisors (each an "INDEMNIFIED PERSON") against, and hold each of them harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, claims, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to an Indemnified Person (including allocated costs of internal counsel), which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Indemnified Person, (i) in any way relating to or arising out of any of the Transaction Documents, the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Notes, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or (ii) with respect to any investigation, litigation or other proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, irrespective of whether the Indemnified Person shall be designated a party thereto (the "INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES"); provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any Indemnified Person for any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent that they are found by a final decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct, or from the breach of a material obligation owed to the Company by such Indemnified Person in connection with the Transaction Documents. If and to the extent that the foregoing indemnification is for any reason held unenforceable, the Company agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. 21 (r) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to constitute one instrument.
