NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the premises, representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration given to each party hereto, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
VOTING
1.1 Agreement to Vote. Each Stockholder hereby agrees, from and after the date hereof and until the date on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 6.1 hereof, at any meeting of the stockholders of Seller (the “Stockholders Meeting”), however called, including any adjournment, recess or postponement thereof or, if applicable, by written consent, in each case to the fullest extent that the Covered Shares are entitled to vote thereon or consent thereto:
(i) appear (in person or by proxy) at each such meeting or otherwise cause all of the Covered Shares to be counted as present thereat for purposes of calculating a quorum; and
(ii) vote (or cause to be voted), in person or by proxy, all of the Covered Shares: (i) in favor of the Transaction, (ii) in favor of the approval of any proposal to adjourn or postpone any Stockholders Meeting to a later date if there are not sufficient votes for adoption of the Purchase Agreement on the date on which such meeting is held; (iii) against any action or agreement that would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of or failure to perform any material covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of the Company or Seller contained in the Purchase Agreement; (iv) against any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that would reasonably be expected to prevent, impede, frustrate, interfere with, postpone, materially delay or adversely affect the consummation of the Transaction or the fulfillment of Buyer’s or Seller’s conditions under the Purchase Agreement and the Transaction Documents, any of the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement or change in any manner the voting rights of any class of shares of Seller (including any amendments to Seller’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws); and (v) against any Acquisition Proposal;
provided, that, in each case, the Stockholders shall not be required to vote in favor of the Transaction at any Stockholders Meeting if, and only if, the Purchase Agreement has been amended or modified without such Stockholder’s consent in a manner that reduces the consideration payable to Seller or otherwise amends the material terms of the Purchase Agreement in a manner that is materially adverse to the stockholders of Seller (a “Voting Exception”).
1.2 Proxy. Each Stockholder hereby grants to Buyer (and any designee of Buyer) a proxy (and appoints Buyer or any such designee of Buyer as its attorney in fact) to vote the Covered Shares in the manner indicated in Section 1.1 (which proxy and appointment shall be limited solely to the matters set forth in Section 1.1 and shall not be effective with respect to any matter or vote for which a Voting Exception is applicable or any other matter or vote not covered by Section 1.1) (the “Proxy Grant”). This proxy and appointment (i) is irrevocable, (ii) is coupled with an interest and (iii) constitutes, among other things, an inducement for Buyer to enter into the Purchase Agreement. This proxy and appointment shall continue in force until it expires, automatically and without further action by the parties, upon termination of this Agreement. This proxy and appointment will survive the death or other incapacity of each Stockholder. Each Stockholder shall also, at Buyer’s expense, take such further action or execute such other instruments as may be reasonably requested by Buyer to carry out and effectuate the intent of this Voting Agreement and this proxy and appointment.
1.3 Revocation of Prior Proxies. Each Stockholder hereby revokes any and all prior proxies or powers of attorney given by each Stockholder with respect to the voting of the Covered Shares inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.

2.1 Power; Due Authorization; Binding Agreement. Each Stockholder has the requisite power, authority and legal capacity to enter into, execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation by each Stockholder of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership or other applicable action on the part of each Stockholder, and no other proceedings on the part of each Stockholder are necessary to authorize this Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by each Stockholder and, assuming the due and valid authorization, execution and delivery hereof by the other parties hereto, constitutes a valid and binding agreement of each Stockholder, enforceable against each Stockholder in accordance with its terms, except that (i) such enforcement may be subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Legal Requirements, now or hereafter in effect, relating to creditors’ rights generally and (ii) equitable remedies of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought.

As of the date hereof, the Current Shares represent all of the capital stock of Seller owned of record or beneficially by each Stockholder and, other than the Current Shares, each Stockholder does not directly or indirectly hold or exercise control over any options, warrants or other rights or awards to purchase shares of Common Stock or other voting capital stock or securities of Seller or any other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock or other voting capital stock or securities of Seller. Each Stockholder has and will have at all times through the Closing sufficient rights and powers over voting and disposition with respect to the matters set forth in Article I, and to agree to all of the matters set forth in this Agreement, in each case with respect to all of the Covered Shares, with no other limitations, qualifications or restrictions on such rights, in each case, subject to applicable securities Legal Requirements, the terms of this Agreement, the Seller’s certificate of incorporation (including the Certificate of Designation) and customary Encumbrances pursuant to the terms of any custody or similar agreement applicable to Covered Shares held in brokerage or margin accounts.

ARTICLE V
OTHER COVENANTS
Each Stockholder hereby covenants to Buyer and Seller, severally as to itself only, as follows:
5.1 Stock Dividends, etc.
(a) In case of a stock dividend or distribution, or any change in shares of Common Stock and/or Preferred Stock by reason of any stock dividend or distribution, split-up, recapitalization, combination, conversion or exchange of shares or the like, for all purposes under this Agreement, the term “Covered Shares” shall be deemed to refer to and include the Covered Shares as well as all such stock dividends and distributions and any securities into which or for which any or all of the Covered Shares may be changed or exchanged or that are received in such transaction, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any shares of Common Stock that each Stockholder receives by converting its shares of Preferred Stock or as a result of the in-kind dividend payment associated with its shares of Preferred Stock, in each case, in accordance with that certain Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Preferred Stock as set forth in Exhibit A of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Seller (the “Certificate of Designation”).
(b) Each Stockholder shall, while this Agreement is in effect, (i) notify Buyer promptly in writing by providing an updated version of Schedule A hereto of the number of any additional shares of Common Stock and/or Preferred Stock, any additional options, warrants or rights or other awards to purchase shares of Common Stock or other voting capital stock of Seller and any other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock or other voting capital stock or securities of Seller acquired (beneficially or of record) by each Stockholder or any Affiliate thereof, if any, after the date hereof, (ii) be deemed to, as of the date of such acquisition, make the representations in Article II (with references to “as of the date hereof” in the second recital to this Agreement and Section 2.2 hereof being deemed to be replaced with a reference to the date of such acquisition), and (iii) if acquired by an Affiliate, shall promptly cause such Person to execute a joinder to this Agreement and become a “Stockholder”.
6
5.2 Transfers. While this Agreement is in effect, each Stockholder shall not directly or indirectly (a) grant any proxies or enter into any voting agreement, voting trust or other agreement or arrangement with respect to the voting of any Covered Shares or (b) other than to or with an Affiliate (provided that any such Affiliate, as a condition to such Transfer, executes and delivers to Buyer and Seller a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Buyer pursuant to which such Affiliate agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as a “Stockholder” with respect to the transferred Covered Shares), (i) sell, transfer, pledge, encumber, assign, distribute, gift or otherwise dispose of (including by merger or otherwise by operation of law, or by tendering into any tender or exchange offer) (collectively, a “Transfer”) or (ii) enter into any Contract, option or other arrangement or understanding with respect to any Transfer (whether by actual disposition or effective economic disposition due to hedging, cash settlement or otherwise) of, any of the Covered Shares or any interest therein. Any attempted Transfer of Covered Shares or any interest therein in violation of this Section 5.2 shall be null and void. Each Stockholder shall not seek or solicit any such Transfer or any such contract, option or other arrangement or understanding with respect to any Transfer. For the avoidance of doubt, the fact, in and of itself, that any Covered Shares are held in a margin account or pledged pursuant to the terms thereof shall not be deemed a breach or violation of this Section 5.2.
5.3 Adverse Proceedings. While this Agreement is in effect, each Stockholder shall not: (a) take, agree or commit to take any action that would reasonably be expected to make any representation and warranty of each Stockholder contained in this Agreement inaccurate in any material respect as of any time during the term of this Agreement or (b) fail to take reasonable action necessary to prevent any such representation or warranty from being inaccurate in any material respect at any such time.
5.4 Waiver of Dissenter and Appraisal Rights and Other Rights.
(a) Each Stockholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees to cause to be waived and to prevent the exercise of, any rights of appraisal, any dissenter’s rights and any similar rights relating to the Transaction that each Stockholder may have by virtue of, or with respect to, the Covered Shares.
(b) Each Stockholder hereby agrees not to commence or participate in, and to take all actions necessary to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any action, suit or proceeding, derivative or otherwise, against Buyer, Seller or any of their respective Subsidiaries or successors: (i) challenging the validity of, or seeking to enjoin or delay the operation of, any provision of this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement (including any claim seeking to enjoin or delay the Closing); or (ii) to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Legal Requirements, alleging a breach of any duty of the board of directors of Seller or Buyer in connection with the Purchase Agreement, this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby.
5.5 No Solicitation. Each Stockholder shall not, and shall direct and use reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, take any action that would violate Section 4.5 of the Purchase Agreement if such Stockholder were deemed to be a Representative of Seller for purposes of such Section (it being understood that the Stockholder and its Representatives shall be entitled to take any action that the Company and its Representatives are or would be permitted to take in accordance with such Section). For clarity, if a Stockholder is a venture capital or private equity investor, the term “Representative” (a) shall include any general
7
partner of such Stockholder that is still affiliated with such Stockholder, but (b) shall exclude (i) any limited partner, (ii) any general partner that is no longer affiliated with such Stockholder, and (iii) any employees or other Representatives, in each case of clauses (i) to (iii), who do not have actual knowledge of the Transaction and who do not act at the direction of the Seller, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Section 5.5 shall restrict or limit the rights or obligations of Seller or its Board of Directors under Section 4.5 of the Purchase Agreement.
ARTICLE VI
MISCELLANEOUS
6.1 Termination.

6.3 Further Assurances. From time to time, at the other party’s reasonable request and without further consideration, each party shall promptly execute, acknowledge and deliver any other assurances or documents or take any other actions reasonably requested by the other party, as the case may be, and necessary for the other party, as the case may be, to satisfy its obligations hereunder and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including the execution and delivery of any documents, certificates, instruments or other papers that are reasonably required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.
6.4 No Ownership Interest. Except for the Proxy Grant, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in Buyer any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to any Covered Shares.

6.5 Non-Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. None of the representations, warranties, covenants and other agreements in this Agreement will survive the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.1; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that Buyer shall be entitled to exercise all rights and remedies with respect to any breach prior to and including the Termination Date of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made by each Stockholder.

6.8 Construction. The parties acknowledge that each Stockholder, Buyer and Seller participated in the drafting of this Agreement and agree that any rule of law or any legal decision that may or would require interpretation of any alleged ambiguities in this Agreement against the party that drafted it has no application and is expressly waived. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement (including the representations, warranties and covenants provisions hereof) and the terms of any other documents delivered or required to be delivered in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that the terms of this Agreement shall supersede such conflicting or inconsistent terms in such other documents and the terms of this Agreement shall define the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to the subject matter of such conflict or inconsistency.
6.9 Succession and Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of Legal Requirement or otherwise by either party without the prior written consent of the other party. Any purported assignment without such consent shall be void. Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.
10
6.10 Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (a) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the matters related herein and (b) is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties to this Agreement any rights or remedies.
6.11 Specific Performance. The parties acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. It is accordingly agreed that, prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.1, the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the performance of terms and provisions of this Agreement, without proof of actual damages (and each party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. The parties further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Legal Requirement or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for any such breach.
6.12 Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Venue. This Agreement and all claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement) shall be governed and construed in accordance with the Legal Requirements of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflict-of-laws principles that would result in the application of the Legal Requirements of any other jurisdiction. Each of the parties (i) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, any federal court located in the State of Delaware in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, (iii) agrees that it will not bring any Proceeding relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, any federal court located in the State of Delaware, (iv) waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such Proceeding in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, any federal court located in the State of Delaware or that such Proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same and (v) consents to service being made through the notice procedures set forth in Section 6.7. Each of the parties hereby agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to the respective addresses set forth in Section 6.7 shall be effective service of process for any Proceeding in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
11
6.13 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BROUGHT BY OR AGAINST IT THAT MAY BE BASED UPON, ARISE OUT OF OR RELATE TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION OR PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY MADE IN THIS AGREEMENT). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 6.13.
6.14 Waiver of Rights. No failure on the part of any party to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, and no delay on the part of any party in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy. No party shall be deemed to have waived any claim available to such party arising out of this Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy of such party under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of such party; and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.
6.15 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule or Legal Requirement, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as either the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party or such party waives its rights under this Section 6.15 with respect thereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.
6.16 Publicity. Except as otherwise required by applicable Legal Requirement, rule of a national securities exchange or a Governmental Body or to the extent required in connection with any Legal Proceeding to enforce the terms hereof, Buyer will not make any other disclosures regarding any Stockholder in any press release or otherwise without the prior written consent of such Stockholder (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).
