From and after the First Effective Time, all certificates representing the common stock of First Merger Sub shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation into which they were converted in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

(h) Each share of Company Stock held in the Company’s treasury immediately prior to the First Effective Time (each, an “Excluded Share”) shall be cancelled and no consideration shall be paid or payable with respect thereto.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no fraction of a share of Buyer Common Stock will be issued by virtue of the First Merger, and each Holder that would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Buyer Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock of the same class and series that otherwise would be received by such Holder) shall not receive from Buyer any shares of Buyer Common Stock or other consideration in lieu of such fractional share.

(j) The Company and Buyer shall each take, or cause to be taken, all action reasonably necessary, as applicable, to provide for the treatment of the Company Options as set forth in the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.02.

From and after the Second Effective Time, the limited liability company interests of the Second Merger Sub shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of membership interests into which they were converted in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

(a) In connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Company shall (and, to the extent required, shall cause its Affiliates to) comply promptly but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof with the notification and reporting requirements of the HSR Act. The Company shall (i) use its reasonable best efforts to comply as promptly as practicable with any Information or Document Requests and (ii) request early termination of any waiting period under the HSR Act.

(b) The Company shall promptly furnish to Buyer copies of any notices or written communications received by the Company or any of its Affiliates from any third party or any Governmental Authority, and detail any substantive oral communications between the Company or any of its Affiliates and any Governmental Authority, with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the Company shall permit counsel to Buyer an opportunity to review in advance, and the Company shall consider in good faith the views of such counsel in connection with, any proposed written communications by the Company or its Affiliates to any Governmental Authority concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, that the Company shall not extend any waiting period or comparable period under the HSR Act or enter into any agreement with any Governmental Authority without the written consent of Buyer. The Company agrees to provide, to the extent permitted by the applicable Governmental Authority, Buyer and its counsel the opportunity, on reasonable advance notice, to participate in any substantive meetings or discussions, either in person or by telephone, between the Company or any of its Affiliates, agents or advisors, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority, on the other hand, concerning or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 7.04. No Claim Against the Trust Account. The Company acknowledges that it has read Buyer’s final prospectus, dated December 7, 2020 and other SEC Reports, the Buyer Organizational Documents, and the Trust Agreement and understands that Buyer has established the Trust Account described therein for the benefit of Buyer’s public stockholders and that disbursements from the Trust Account are available only in the limited circumstances set forth in the Trust Agreement. The Company further acknowledges that, if the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or, in the event of a termination of this Agreement, another Business Combination, are not consummated by September 10, 2022 or such later date as approved by the stockholders of Buyer to complete a Business Combination, Buyer will be obligated to return to its stockholders the amounts being held in the Trust Account. Accordingly, the Company (on behalf of itself and its controlled Affiliates) hereby irrevocably waives any past, present or future claim of any kind against, and any right to access, the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or to collect from the Trust Account any monies that may be owed to them by Buyer or any of its Affiliates for any reason whatsoever, and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (or distributions therefrom) at any time for any reason whatsoever; provided, that nothing herein shall serve to limit or prohibit the Company’s right to pursue a claim against Buyer or any of its Affiliates for legal relief against assets held outside the Trust Account (including from and after the consummation of a Business Combination other than as contemplated by this Agreement) or pursuant to Section 12.13 for specific performance or other injunctive relief. The Company agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by Buyer to induce it to enter in this Agreement, and the Company further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and

58

enforceable under applicable Law. To the extent the Company commences any Action based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to Buyer, which seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against Buyer, the Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that its sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit the Company (or any party claiming on the Company’s behalf or in lieu of the Company) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. In the event the Company commences any Action based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to Buyer, which seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or the stockholders of Buyer, whether in the form of money damages or injunctive relief, Buyer shall be entitled to recover from the Company the associated legal fees and costs in connection with any such action, in the event Buyer prevails in such action or proceeding. This Section 7.04 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

Section 7.05. Proxy Solicitation; Other Actions.

(a) Prior to the date of this Agreement the Company has provided to Buyer the (i) audited financial statements, including consolidated balance sheets as of January 2, 2022, January 3, 2021 and December 29, 2019, and consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, shareholder’s equity and cash flows, of the Company and its Subsidiaries or Blue Nile and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, for the years ended January 2, 2022, January 3, 2021 and December 29, 2019, in each case, prepared in accordance with GAAP and Regulation S-X under the Securities Act (as interpreted by the staff of the SEC) (“Regulation S-X”) and audited in accordance with the auditing standards of the PCAOB, and (ii) any unaudited financial statements, including consolidated condensed balance sheets and consolidated condensed statements of income and comprehensive income, shareholder’s equity and cash flows, of the Acquired Companies required under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC to be included in the Proxy Statement or the Current Report on Form 8-K filed in connection with the Closing, in each case, prepared in accordance with GAAP and Regulation S-X. The Company shall be available to, and the Acquired Companies shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make their officers and employees available to, in each case, during normal business hours and upon reasonable advanced notice, Buyer and its counsel in connection with (A) the drafting of the Proxy Statement and (B) responding in a timely manner to comments on the Proxy Statement from the SEC. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer in connection with the preparation for inclusion in the Proxy Statement of pro forma financial statements that comply with the requirements of Regulation S-X.

(b) From and after the date on which the Proxy Statement is mailed to Buyer’s stockholders, the Company will give Buyer prompt written notice of any action taken or not taken by the Company or its Subsidiaries or of any development regarding the Company or its Subsidiaries, in any such case which is or becomes known by the Company, that would cause the Proxy Statement to contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, that if any such action shall be taken or fail to be taken or such development shall otherwise occur, Buyer and the Company shall cooperate fully to cause an amendment or supplement to be made promptly to the Proxy Statement, such that the Proxy Statement no longer contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, further, however, that no information received by Buyer pursuant to this Section 7.05 shall operate as a waiver or otherwise affect any representation, warranty or agreement given or made by the party who disclosed such information, and no such information shall be deemed to change, supplement or amend the Schedules.

59

Section 7.06. FIRPTA. At the Closing, the Company shall deliver to Buyer (a) a certificate in such form as reasonably requested by Buyer conforming to the requirements of Section 1.897-2(h)(1)(i) and 1.1445-2(c)(3)(i) of the Treasury Regulations, and (b) a copy of the signed notice contemplated by Section 1.897-2(h)(2) of the Treasury Regulations, which Buyer shall be entitled to file with the IRS in accordance with such Treasury Regulation.

Section 7.07. Affiliate Agreements. Except for arrangements with employees of any Acquired Company in the ordinary course of business, and except as set forth on Schedule 7.07(a), all agreements between any of the Acquired Companies and any of their respective Affiliates shall be terminated or settled at or prior to the Closing in accordance with their terms. At or prior to the Closing, Buyer and the Company agree to enter into, or to cause any of their respective Affiliates (as applicable) to enter into, any and all agreements referred to on Schedule 7.07(b), which in each case shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to each of Buyer and the Company, and which in each case shall be effective from and after the Closing.

Section 7.08. Amendments to Credit Facility. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain consent from the Required Lenders (as defined in the applicable Credit Facility) to (a) include Buyer and its Affiliates as Permitted Holders (as defined in the applicable Credit Facility) under each Credit Facility and (b) amend the ABL Credit Agreement to treat a business combination transaction with a special purpose acquisition company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Business Combination) as a Qualifying IPO (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement); provided, that the use of commercially reasonable efforts shall not be interpreted to require the Company (or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries) to pay any fees or expenses to the Lenders (as defined in the applicable Credit Facility) under either such Credit Facility in connection with obtaining such consents.

The entry by any Governmental Authority in any Action of a Governmental Order permitting the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby but requiring any assets or lines of business of Buyer to be sold, licensed or otherwise disposed or held separate thereafter (including the business and assets of the Acquired Companies) shall not be deemed a failure to satisfy any condition specified in ARTICLE X.

Section 8.02. Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) From and after the First Effective Time, Buyer agrees that it shall indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director, manager and officer of the Company and Buyer and each of their respective Subsidiaries against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any Action, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the First Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the First Effective Time, to the fullest extent that the Company, Buyer or their respective Subsidiaries, as the case may be, would have been permitted under applicable Law and their respective Organizational Documents to indemnify such Person (including the advancing of expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law). Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer shall cause the Surviving Entity and each of its Subsidiaries to, (i) maintain for a period of not less than six (6) years from the First Effective Time provisions in its certificate of incorporation, bylaws and other organizational documents concerning the indemnification and exoneration (including provisions relating to expense advancement) of officers and directors/managers that are no less favorable to those Persons than the provisions of such Organizational Documents as of the date of this Agreement and (ii) not amend, repeal or otherwise modify such provisions in any respect that would adversely affect the rights of those Persons thereunder, in each case, except as required by Law.

61

(b) For a period of six (6) years from the First Effective Time, Buyer shall, or shall cause one or more of its Subsidiaries to, maintain in effect directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering those Persons who are currently covered by Buyer’s, the Company’s or any of their respective Subsidiaries’ directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies (true, correct and complete copies of which have been heretofore made available to Buyer or its agents or representatives) on terms not less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage, except that in no event shall Buyer or its Subsidiaries be required to pay an annual premium for such insurance in excess of three hundred percent (300%) of the aggregate annual premium payable by the Acquired Companies or Buyer, as applicable, for such insurance policy for the year ended January 2, 2022; provided, that (i) Buyer may cause coverage to be extended under the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance by obtaining a six (6)-year “tail” policy containing terms not materially less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage with respect to claims existing or occurring at or prior to the First Effective Time (the “D&O Tail”) and (ii) if any claim is asserted or made within such six (6)-year period, any insurance required to be maintained under this Section 8.02 shall be continued in respect of such claim until the final disposition thereof.

(c) Buyer and the Company hereby acknowledge (on behalf of themselves and their respective Subsidiaries) that the indemnified Persons under this Section 8.02 may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses or insurance provided by current stockholders, members, or other Affiliates of such stockholders or members (“Indemnitee Affiliates”) separate from the indemnification obligations of the Buyer, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries hereunder. The Parties hereby agree (i) that the Buyer, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries are the indemnitors of first resort (i.e., its obligations to the indemnified Persons under this Section 8.02 are primary and any obligation of any Indemnitee Affiliate to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by the indemnified Persons under this Section 8.02 are secondary), (ii) that the Buyer, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by the indemnified Persons under this Section 8.02 and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and required by the Buyer’s, the Company’s and their respective Subsidiaries’ Organizational Documents or any director or officer indemnification agreements, without regard to any rights the indemnified Persons under this Section 8.02 may have against any Indemnitee Affiliate, and (iii) that the Parties (on behalf of themselves and their respective Subsidiaries) irrevocably waive, relinquish and release the Indemnitee Affiliates from any and all claims against the Indemnitee Affiliates for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof.

In the event that Buyer, the Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Entity or any of their respective successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Buyer, the Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Entity, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 8.02.

(e) by written notice from either the Company or Buyer to the other if the approval of the Buyer Stockholder Matters by the Buyer Stockholders is not obtained at the Special Meeting (subject to any adjournment, postponement or recess thereof); provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 11.01(e) shall not be available to Buyer if, at the time of such termination, Buyer is in breach of Section 9.02; provided, further, that no termination right shall be available to any Party pursuant to this Section 11.01(e) if clauses (4), (5), (6) and/or (7) of the definition of Buyer Stockholder Matters are the only approvals of the Buyer Stockholder Matters not so obtained at the Special Meeting;

(f) by written notice to the Company from Buyer if there has been a Material Adverse Effect on the Company; or

If the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.01(g), then (i) upon the earlier of (A) the consummation of the Specified Third Party Transaction at the closing under the Specified Third Party Definitive Agreement and (B) the termination of the Specified Third Party Definitive Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Company shall pay (1) the Termination Fee to Buyer in accordance with Section 11.03(a) and (2) the “Subscriber Termination Adjustment” (as defined in the Sponsor Subscription and Backstop Agreement) to Sponsor pursuant to the terms of the Sponsor Subscription and Backstop Agreement and (ii) upon (and subject to) the consummation of the Specified Third Party Transaction at the closing under the Specified Third Party Definitive Agreement, the Company shall consummate the “Mandatory Preferred Call” (as defined in the Preferred Shares Subscription Agreement) pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Preferred Certificate of Designation.

Section 11.02. Effect of Termination. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 11.02 or Section 12.13, in the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.01, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect, without any liability on the part of any Party or its respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees or stockholders, other than liability of any Party for Fraud or any intentional and willful breach of this Agreement by such Party occurring prior to such termination. The provisions of Section 7.04 (No Claim Against the Trust Account), Section 9.05 (Confidentiality; Publicity), Section 11.01(g), this Section 11.02 (Effect of Termination), Section 11.03 (Termination Fee) and ARTICLE XII (collectively, the “Surviving Provisions”) and the Confidentiality Agreement, and any other Section or Article of this Agreement referenced in the Surviving Provisions which are required to survive in order to give appropriate effect to the Surviving Provisions, shall in each case survive any termination of this Agreement.

Section 11.03. Termination Fee.

(a) In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 11.01(g), then at the time specified in Section 11.01(g)(i), the Company shall be obligated to pay (or caused to be paid) to Buyer or its designee(s) a termination fee in an amount equal to the amount of Buyer Transaction Expenses, calculated as of the date of termination, which for purposes of this ARTICLE XI shall not exceed $10,000,000 (such amount, the “Termination Fee”), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Buyer in writing (such written designation to be provided to the Company no later than two (2) Business Days after the date on which Buyer delivers to the Company a written invoice for the Buyer Transaction Expenses (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be more than one (1) Business Day following such termination)). Any amounts paid or shares issued in connection with a termination pursuant to Section 11.01(g) in respect of the Subscriber Termination Adjustment shall be treated as an adjustment to the purchase price of the Company Convertible Preferred Shares issued pursuant to the Preferred Shares Subscription Agreement unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, except in the case of Fraud, if the Termination Fee is paid pursuant to Section 11.03(a), such payment shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of Buyer, Merger Sub I, Merger Sub II, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective former, current or future direct or indirect general or limited partners, equityholders, directors, officers, managers, employees, Representatives or assignees, on the one hand, against the Company, its Subsidiaries and any of their respective former, current or future direct or indirect general or limited partners, equityholders, directors, officers, managers, employees, Representatives or assignees (together with the Company, collectively, the “Company Related Parties”) for all losses and damages suffered as a result of the failure of the Transactions to be consummated or for a breach or failure to perform hereunder or otherwise, and none of the Company Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions.

77

(c) If the Company fails to pay promptly any amount due under this Section 11.03, and in order to obtain such payment, Buyer commences an Action against the Company that results in a judgment against the Company for any amount owed thereby under this Section 11.03, as applicable, the Company shall reimburse Buyer for its reasonable, documented and out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable, documented and out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with such Action, together with interest on such amount at a rate equal to (i) the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date such payment was actually received, plus (ii) two percent (2%).

(d) Each of the Parties acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 11.03 are an integral part of the Transactions, (ii) without these agreements, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement, (iii) the provisions of this ARTICLE XI supersede the A&R LOI, and (iv) the Termination Fee does not constitute a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will reimburse certain expenses Buyer expended in its pursuit of an initial business combination and provide funds to allow Buyer to seek an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to allow additional time to consummate an initial business combination, if necessary and advisable, and compensate Buyer for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement, in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement or any Transaction Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof and thereof, without proof of damages, prior to the valid termination of this Agreement

The Parties acknowledge and agree that any Party seeking an injunction to prevent breaches of this Agreement or any Transaction Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any Transaction Agreement in accordance with this Section 12.13 shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such injunction.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.3(a), to the fullest extent permitted by law, holders of Common Stock, as such, shall have no voting power under this Certificate of Incorporation with respect to, and shall not be entitled to vote on, any amendment to this Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of

designation relating to any series of Preferred Stock) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon under this Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation relating to any series of Preferred Stock) or under the DGCL.

ARTICLE V

BYLAWS

The Board is expressly authorized to make, repeal, alter, amend and rescind, in whole or in part, the bylaws of the Corporation (as in effect from time to time, the “Bylaws”) without the assent or vote of the stockholders in any manner not inconsistent with the laws of the State of Delaware or this Certificate of Incorporation.

ARTICLE VI

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Section 6.1 Board of Directors.

(a) Board Powers. Except as otherwise provided in this Certificate of Incorporation or the DGCL, the business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board.

(b) Number, Election and Term.

(i) Without limiting the rights of any party to the Investor Rights Agreement, or except as otherwise provided for or fixed in any certificate of designation with respect to any series of Preferred Stock, the total number of directors constituting the whole Board shall be determined from time to time by resolution adopted by the Board.

(ii) Without limiting the rights of any party to the Investor Rights Agreement, the directors (other than those directors elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or together with one or more such series, as the case may be (such directors, if any, the “Preferred Stock Directors”)) shall be divided into three classes designated Class I, Class II and Class III. Each class shall consist, as nearly as possible, of one-third of the total number of such directors. Class I directors shall initially serve for a term expiring at the first annual meeting of stockholders following the Effective Date, Class II directors shall initially serve for a term expiring at the second annual meeting of stockholders following the Effective Date and Class III directors shall initially serve for a term expiring at the third annual meeting of stockholders following the Effective Date. At each annual meeting following the Effective Date, successors to the class of directors whose term expires at that annual meeting shall be elected for a term expiring at the third succeeding annual meeting of stockholders. If the number of such directors is changed (other than in respect of any Preferred Stock Directors), any increase or decrease shall be apportioned among the classes so as to maintain the number of directors in each class as nearly equal as possible, and any such additional director of any class elected to fill a newly created directorship resulting from an increase in such class shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of that class, but in no case shall a decrease in the number of directors remove, or shorten the term of, any incumbent director. Subject to the rights granted to the holders of any one or more series of Preferred Stock then outstanding in respect of any Preferred Stock Directors and without limiting the rights of any party to the Investor Rights Agreement, the election of directors shall be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Without limiting the rights of any party to the Investor Rights Agreement, the Board is authorized to assign members of the Board already in office at the Effective Date to their respective class.

(iii) Any such director shall hold office until the annual meeting at which his or her term expires and until his or her successor shall be elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal from office.

(iv) Directors of the Corporation need not be elected by written ballot, unless the Bylaws shall so provide.

Section 6.2 Newly-Created Directorships and Vacancies. Subject to the rights granted to the holders of any one or more series of Preferred Stock then outstanding in respect of any Preferred Stock Directors and without limiting the rights of any party to the Investor Rights Agreement, any newly-created directorship on the Board that results from an increase in the number of directors and any vacancy occurring in the Board (whether by death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal or other cause) shall be filled by a majority of the directors then in office (other than directors elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or together with one or more series, as the case may be), even if less than a quorum, by a sole remaining director or by the stockholders; provided, however, that, subject to the rights granted to holders of any one or more series of Preferred Stock then outstanding in respect of any Preferred Stock Directors and without limiting the rights of any party to the Investor Rights Agreement, from and after the Trigger Event, any newly-created directorship on the Board that results from an increase in the number of directors and any vacancy occurring on the Board shall be filled only by a majority of the directors then in office (other than directors elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or together with one or more series, as the case may be), even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director (and not by the stockholders). Any director (other than a Preferred Stock Director) appointed to fill a vacancy or newly created directorship shall hold office until the next election of the class for which such director shall have been chosen and until his or her successor shall be elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal.

Section 6.3 Resignation and Removal. Any director may resign at any time upon notice to the Corporation given in writing or by any electronic transmission permitted by the Bylaws. Without limiting the rights of any party to the Investor Rights Agreement, any or all of the directors (other than any Preferred Stock Director) may be removed at any time either with or without cause by the affirmative vote of a majority in voting power of all outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class; provided, however, that, from and after the Trigger Event, any such director or all such directors may be removed only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2/3% in voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class. Without limiting the rights of any party to the Investor Rights Agreement, in case the Board or any one or more directors should be so removed, new directors may be appointed in accordance with Section 6.2.

Section 6.4 Preferred Stock Directors. Whenever the holders of any one or more series of Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation shall have the right, voting separately as a series or separately as a class with one or more such other series, to elect Preferred Stock Directors, then the election, term of office, removal and other features of such directorships shall be governed by the terms of this Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation relating to any series of Preferred Stock) applicable thereto. Notwithstanding Section 6.1(b), the number of directors that may be elected by the holders of any such series of Preferred Stock shall be in addition to the number fixed in accordance with Section 6.1(b) hereof, and the total number of directors constituting the whole Board shall be automatically adjusted accordingly and whenever the holders of any series of Preferred Stock having such right to elect Preferred Stock Directors are divested of such right, the terms of office of all such Preferred Stock Directors shall forthwith terminate (in which case each such director thereupon shall cease to be qualified as, and shall cease to be, a director) and the total authorized number of directors of the Corporation shall automatically be reduced accordingly.

Section 6.5 Quorum. A quorum for the transaction of business by the directors shall be set forth in the Bylaws.

ARTICLE VII

CONSENT OF STOCKHOLDERS IN LIEU OF MEETING; ANNUAL AND SPECIAL MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS

Section 7.1 Consent of Stockholders in Lieu of Meeting. Prior to the Trigger Event, any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Corporation in accordance with the Bylaws and applicable law. From and after the Trigger Event, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of such holders and may not be effected by any consent in writing by such holders; provided, however, that any action required or permitted to be taken by the holders of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class or series or separately as a class with one or more other such series or classes, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, to the extent expressly so provided by the applicable certificate of designation relating to such series of Preferred Stock.

Section 7.2 Meetings of Stockholders. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, and any rights granted pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, special meetings of the stockholders of the Corporation for any purpose or purposes may be called only by or at the direction of the Board, the Chair of the Board or as otherwise expressly provided in the Bylaws; provided, however, that at any time when the Sponsors Beneficially Own, in the aggregate, at least 40% of the stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, special meetings of the stockholders shall also be called by or at the direction of the Board or the Chair of the Board at the request of Sponsors that Beneficially Own, in the aggregate, at least 40% of the stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors. An annual meeting of stockholders for the election of directors to succeed those whose terms expire and for the transaction of such other business as may properly come before the meeting shall be held at such place, if any, on such date, and at such time as shall be fixed exclusively by resolution of the Board or a duly authorized committee thereof.

ARTICLE VIII

LIMITED LIABILITY; INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1 Limited Liability of Directors. To the fullest extent permitted by law, no director of the Corporation will have any personal liability to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director. If the DGCL is amended to authorize action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors and/or officers, then the liability of a director and/or officer of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended. Neither the amendment nor the repeal of this Article VIII shall eliminate, reduce or otherwise adversely affect any limitation on the personal liability of a director or officer, as applicable, of the Corporation existing prior to such amendment or repeal.

Section 8.2 Indemnification and Advancement of Expenses. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Corporation shall indemnify (and provide advancement of expenses to) directors and officers of the Corporation from and against any and all liabilities, costs, expenses or damages that they may incur on account of, related to, or in connection with, directly or indirectly, their service to the Corporation. The Corporation may indemnify (and provide advancement of expenses to) employees and agents of the Corporation (and any other persons to which the DGCL permits the Corporation to provide indemnification). Indemnification may be made through Bylaw provisions, agreements with such persons, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, in excess of the indemnification and

advancement otherwise permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL. The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses conferred on any Indemnitee by this Section 8.2 shall not be exclusive of any other rights that any Indemnitee may have or hereafter acquire under law, this Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, insurance, an agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.

A person who is the owner of 20% or more of the outstanding voting stock of a corporation, partnership, unincorporated association or other entity shall be presumed to have control of such entity, in the absence of proof by a preponderance of the evidence to the contrary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a presumption of control shall not apply where such person holds voting stock, in good faith and not for the purpose of circumventing this Article X(f), as an agent, bank, broker, nominee, custodian or trustee for one or more owners who do not individually or as a group have control of such entity; and (iv) “Sponsor” shall mean any of (i) ▇▇▇▇ Capital Private Equity, LP and each of its Affiliates and Bow Street LLC and each of its Affiliates).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, where a separate vote by a class or series or classes or series of stock of the Corporation is required, a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of such class or series or classes or series, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter. At any adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented by proxy, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the original meeting. Notice need not be given of any adjourned meeting if the time, date and place, if any, and the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders may be deemed present in person or represented by proxy and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken; provided, however, that if the adjournment is for more than 60 days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

The Secretary of the Corporation or, in such officer’s absence, an Assistant Secretary of the Corporation, shall act as secretary of the meeting. If neither the Secretary nor an Assistant Secretary is present, the chair of the meeting shall appoint a secretary of the meeting. The Board may adopt such rules and regulations for the conduct of the

2

meeting of stockholders as it shall deem appropriate. Unless otherwise determined by the Board prior to the meeting, the chairman of the meeting shall determine the order of business and shall have the authority in his or her discretion to regulate the conduct of any such meeting, including, without limitation, convening the meeting and adjourning the meeting (whether or not a quorum is present), announcing the date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote, imposing restrictions on the persons (other than stockholders of record of the Corporation or their duly appointed proxies) who may attend any such meeting, establishing procedures for the transaction of business at such meeting (including the dismissal of business not properly presented), maintaining order at the meeting and safety of those present, restricting entry to such meeting after the time fixed for commencement thereof and limiting the circumstances in which any person may make a statement or ask questions at any meeting of stockholders.

Section 2.6 Proxies.

(a) At all meetings of stockholders, any stockholder entitled to vote thereat shall be entitled to vote in person or by proxy, subject to applicable law. Without limiting the manner in which a stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for the stockholder as proxy pursuant to the DGCL, the following shall constitute a valid means by which a stockholder may grant such authority: (i) a stockholder may execute a writing authorizing another person or persons to act for the stockholder as proxy, and execution of the writing may be accomplished by the stockholder or the stockholder’s authorized officer, director, employee or agent signing such writing or causing his or her signature to be affixed to such writing by any reasonable means including, but not limited to, by facsimile signature; or (ii) a stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for the stockholder as proxy by transmitting or authorizing by means of electronic transmission to the person who will be the holder of the proxy or to a proxy solicitation firm, proxy support service organization or like agent duly authorized by the person who will be the holder of the proxy to receive such transmission but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period; provided, that any such means of electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder. If it is determined that such electronic transmissions are valid, the inspector or inspectors of stockholder votes or, if there are no such inspectors, such other persons making that determination shall specify the information upon which they relied.

(b) A proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A stockholder may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by delivering to the Secretary of the Corporation a revocation of the proxy or a new proxy bearing a later date.

(c) Any copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reliable reproduction of the writing or transmission created pursuant to the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.6 (including any electronic transmission) may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing or transmission for any and all purposes for which the original writing or transmission could be used; provided, that such copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing or transmission.

(d) Proxies shall be filed with the secretary of the meeting prior to or at the commencement of the meeting to which they relate.

Section 2.7 Voting. When a quorum is present at any meeting, the vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall decide any matter brought before such meeting, unless such matter is one upon which by express provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, the Investor Rights Agreement, these Bylaws or the DGCL a different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such matter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, where a separate vote by a class or series or classes or series of stock of the Corporation is required and a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by shares of such class or series or classes or series and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of such class or series or classes or series, unless the question is one upon which by express provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, the Investor Rights Agreement, these Bylaws or the DGCL a different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question.

Section 2.8 Fixing Record Date.

(a) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board, and which record date shall, unless otherwise required by applicable law, not be more than 60 nor less than ten days before the date of such meeting. If the Board so fixes a date, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the Board determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for making such determination. If no record date is fixed by the Board, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board may fix a new record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and in such case shall also fix as the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote in accordance herewith at the adjourned meeting.

(b) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change or conversion or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall not be more than 60 days prior to such action. If no such record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto.

(c) Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation, in order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to express consent to action in writing without a meeting, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board, and which record date shall not be more than ten days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board. If no record date for determining stockholders entitled to express consent to action in writing without a meeting is fixed by the Board, (i) if no prior action of the Board is required by law, the record date for such purpose shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Corporation in accordance with applicable law, and (ii) if prior action by the Board is required by law, the record date for such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

Section 2.9 Consents in Lieu of Meeting. At any time when action by one or more classes or series of stockholders of the Corporation is permitted to be taken by written consent pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation and/or the Investor Rights Agreement (as applicable), the provisions of this section shall apply. All consents properly delivered in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation, the Investor Rights Agreement (as applicable) and the DGCL shall be deemed to be recorded when so delivered. No written consent shall be effective to take the action referred to therein unless, within 60 days of the earliest dated consent delivered to the Corporation as required by the DGCL, written consents signed by the holders of a sufficient number of shares of stock of the Corporation to take such action are so delivered to the Corporation in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Prompt notice of the taking of the action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for notice of such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of stockholders to take the action were delivered to the Corporation in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and the applicable provisions of the DGCL. Any action taken pursuant to such written consent or consents of the stockholders shall have the same force and effect as if taken by the stockholders at a meeting thereof. In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board, and which date shall not be more than ten days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board. If no record date has been fixed by the Board, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board is required by the DGCL, shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Corporation’s registered office shall be by hand, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, or by electronic transmission. If no record date has been fixed by the Board and prior action by the Board is required by the DGCL, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

Section 2.10 List of Stockholders Entitled to Vote. The Corporation shall prepare, at least ten days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting (provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than ten days before the date of the meeting, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth day before the meeting date), arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of at least ten days prior to the meeting: (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network; provided, that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting; or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. In the event that the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then a list of stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting.

Section 2.11 Inspectors. The Board, in advance of all meetings of the stockholders, may, and shall if required by applicable law, appoint one or more inspectors of stockholder votes, who may be employees or agents of the Corporation or stockholders or their proxies, but who shall not be directors of the Corporation or candidates for election as directors. In the event that the Board fails to so appoint one or more inspectors of stockholder votes or in the event that one or more inspectors of stockholder votes previously designated by the Board fails to appear or act at the meeting of stockholders, the chair of the meeting may appoint one or more inspectors of stockholder votes to fill such vacancy or vacancies. Inspectors of stockholder votes appointed to act at any meeting of the stockholders, before discharging their duties, shall take and sign an oath to faithfully execute the duties of inspector of stockholder votes with strict impartiality and according to the best of their ability and the oath so taken shall be subscribed by them. The inspector or inspectors so appointed or designated shall (i) ascertain the number of shares of stock of the Corporation outstanding and the voting power of each such share, (ii) determine the shares of stock of the Corporation represented at the meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots, (iii) count all votes and ballots, (iv) determine and retain for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspectors, and (v) certify their determination of the number of shares of stock of the Corporation represented at the meeting and such inspectors’ count of all votes and ballots. Such certification and report shall specify such other information as may be required by applicable law. In determining the validity and counting of proxies and ballots cast at any meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, the inspectors may consider such information as is permitted by applicable law.

Section 2.12 Conduct of Meetings

(a) Annual Meetings of Stockholders.

(i) Nominations of persons for election to the Board and the proposal of business to be transacted by the stockholders may be made at an annual meeting of stockholders (A) pursuant to the Corporation’s proxy materials with respect to such meeting, (B) by or at the direction of the Board, or (C) by any stockholder of record of the Corporation (the “Record Stockholder”) at the time of the giving of the notice required in the following paragraph, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who has complied with the notice procedures set forth in this section. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing clause (C) shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to make nominations or propose business (other than business included in the Corporation’s proxy materials pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (such act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Exchange Act”)) at an annual meeting of stockholders.

(ii) For nominations or business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a Record Stockholder pursuant to clause (C) of the foregoing paragraph, (A) the Record Stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation, (B) any such business must be a proper matter for stockholder action under Delaware law and (C) the Record Stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf any such proposal or nomination is made, must have acted in accordance with the representations set forth in the Solicitation Statement required by these Bylaws. To be timely, a Record Stockholder’s notice shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the

6

45th day, nor earlier than the close of business on the 75th day, prior to the one-year anniversary of the date on which the Corporation first mailed its proxy materials for the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders; provided, however, that, subject to the last sentence of this Section 2.12(a)(ii), if the meeting is convened more than 30 days prior to or delayed by more than 30 days after the anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, or if no annual meeting was held in the preceding year, notice by the Record Stockholder to be timely must be so delivered not later than the close of business on the later of (1) the 90th day before such annual meeting or (2) the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. For purposes of the first annual meeting of stockholders following the adoption of these Bylaws, the date of the preceding year’s annual meeting shall be deemed to be May 15 of the preceding calendar year. Notwithstanding anything in the preceding sentence to the contrary, in the event that the number of directors to be elected to the Board is increased and there has been no public announcement naming all of the nominees for director or indicating the increase in the size of the Board made by the Corporation at least 10 days before the last day a Record Stockholder may deliver a notice of nomination in accordance with the preceding sentence, a Record Stockholder’s notice required by these Bylaws shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions created by such increase, if it shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which such public announcement is first made by the Corporation. For the avoidance of doubt, a Record Stockholder shall not be entitled to make additional or substitute nominations following the expiration of the time periods set forth in this section. In no event shall an adjournment, or postponement of an annual meeting for which notice has been given, commence a new time period for the giving of a Record Stockholder’s notice.

(iii) Such Record Stockholder’s notice shall set forth:

(A) If such notice pertains to the nomination of directors, as to each person whom the Record Stockholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection as a director (the “Nominee”) (1) the name, age, business address, residence address, and principal occupation or employment of the Nominee (present and for the past five years), (2) the Specified Information for such Nominee and any member of the immediate family of such Nominee, or any Affiliate or Associate of such Nominee or any person Acting in Concert therewith, (3) all information relating to the Nominee as would be required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for the election of directors in a contested election pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act, (4) the Nominee’s written consent to serve a full term as a director if so elected, (5) a written representation and agreement that the Nominee (A) is not and will not become a party to (x) any agreement, arrangement or understanding (whether written or oral) with, and has not given any commitment or assurance to, any person or entity as to how the Nominee, if elected as a director, will act or vote as director on any issue or question (a “Voting Commitment”) that has not been disclosed to the Corporation or (y) any Voting Commitment that could limit or interfere with the Nominee’s ability to comply with its fiduciary duties as director under applicable law; and that the Nominee, if elected or re-elected, intends to refrain in the future from entering into such a Voting Commitment that would not be disclosed to the Corporation or that could limit or interfere with the Nominee’s ability to comply with its fiduciary duties as director under applicable law, (B) is not and will not become a party to any

Only such business shall be conducted at an annual meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in this section. The chair of the meeting shall have the power and the duty to determine whether a proposed nomination or any business proposed to be brought before the meeting

11

has been made in accordance with the procedures set forth in these Bylaws and, if any proposed nomination or business is not in compliance with these Bylaws, to declare that such defectively proposed business or nomination shall not be presented for stockholder action at the meeting and shall be disregarded. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Bylaws, if the Noticing Stockholder (or a qualified representative of such stockholder (as defined in Section 2.12(a)(iii)(C) of these Bylaws)) does not appear at the annual meeting, as applicable, to present a nomination or business, such nomination shall be disregarded and such proposed business shall not be transacted, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such vote may have been received by the Corporation.

(vii) For purposes of these Bylaws, (i) “public announcement” shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by the Dow ▇▇▇▇▇ News Service, Associated Press or a comparable national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, (ii) the “close of business” on a particular day shall mean 5:00 p.m. local time at the principal executive offices of the Corporation, and if an applicable deadline falls on the close of business on a day that is not a business day, then the applicable deadline shall be deemed to be the close of business on the immediately preceding business day, (iii) “delivery” of any notice or materials by a stockholder as required to be “delivered” under this Section 2.12 shall be made by both (A) hand delivery, overnight courier service, or by certified or registered mail, return receipt required, in each case, to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation and (B) electronic mail to the Secretary, (iv) “Affiliate” shall have the meaning attributed to such term in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, (v) “Associate” shall have the meaning attributed to such term in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, (vi) “Stockholder Associated Person” shall mean as to any Holder (a) any person Acting in Concert with such Holder, (b) any person controlling, controlled by or under common control with such Holder or any of their respective Affiliates and Associates, or person Acting in Concert therewith and (c) any member of the immediate family of such Holder or an Affiliate or Associate of such person, (vii) a person shall be deemed to be “Acting in Concert” with another person for purposes of these Bylaws if such person knowingly acts (whether or not pursuant to an express agreement, arrangement or understanding) in concert or in parallel with, or towards a common goal with such other person, relating to changing or influencing the control of the Corporation or in connection with or as a participant in any transaction having that purpose or effect, where (a) each person is conscious of the other person’s conduct and this awareness is an element in their decision-making processes and (b) at least one additional factor suggests that such persons intend to act in concert or in parallel, which such additional factors may include, without limitation, exchanging information (whether publicly or privately), attending meetings, conducting discussions, or making or soliciting invitations to act in concert or in parallel; provided, that a person shall not be deemed to be Acting in Concert with any other person solely as a result of the solicitation or receipt of (x) revocable proxies or consents from such other person in response to a solicitation made pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act by way of a proxy or consent solicitation statement filed on Schedule 14A or (y) tenders of securities from such other person in a public tender or exchange offer made pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 14(d) of the Exchange Act by means of a tender offer statement filed on Schedule TO. A person Acting in Concert with another person shall be deemed to be Acting in Concert with any third party who is also Acting in Concert with such other person, and (viii) “Synthetic Equity Position” shall mean the full notional amount of any securities that, directly or indirectly, underlie any “derivative security” (as such term is defined in Rule

12

16a-1(c) under the Exchange Act) that constitutes a “call equivalent position” (as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1(b) under the Exchange Act); provided that the term “derivative security” shall also include any security or instrument that would not otherwise constitute a “derivative security” as a result of any feature that would make any conversion, exercise or similar right or privilege of such security or instrument becoming determinable only at some future date or upon the happening of a future occurrence, in which case the determination of the amount of securities into which such security or instrument would be convertible or exercisable shall be made assuming that such security or instrument is immediately convertible or exercisable at the time of such determination.

(viii) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.12, a stockholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to matters set forth in this Section 2.12. Nothing in this Section 2.12 shall be deemed to affect any rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act.

(b) Special Meetings of Stockholders. Only such business shall be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting pursuant to Section 2.3. At any time that the stockholders are not prohibited from filling vacancies or newly created directorships on the Board, nominations of persons for election to the Board may be made at a special meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting (i) by or at the direction of the Board or a committee thereof, (ii) as provided in the Investor Rights Agreement or (iii) if the Board has determined that directors shall be elected at such meeting, by any stockholder of the Corporation who is entitled to vote on such election at the meeting who has complied with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.12 and who is a stockholder of record at the time such notice is delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation. In the event the Corporation calls a special meeting of stockholders for the purpose of electing one or more directors to the Board, any such stockholder entitled to vote in such election of directors may nominate a person or persons (as the case may be) for election to such position(s) as specified in the Corporation’s notice of meeting if the stockholder’s notice as required by Section 2.12 is delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such special meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such special meeting or the tenth day following the day on which public announcement is first made of the date of the special meeting and of the nominees proposed by the Board to be elected at such meeting.

(c) General.

(i) If authorized by the Board in its sole discretion, and subject to such rules, regulations and procedures as the Board may adopt, stockholders of the Corporation and proxyholders not physically present at a meeting of stockholders of the Corporation may, by means of remote communication participate in a meeting of stockholders of the Corporation and be deemed present in person and vote at a meeting of stockholders of the Corporation whether such meeting is to be held at a designated place or solely by means of remote communication; provided, however, that (A) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to verify that each person deemed present and permitted to vote at the meeting by means of remote communication is a stockholder of the Corporation or proxyholder; (B) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to provide such

13

stockholders of the Corporation and proxyholders a reasonable opportunity to participate in the meeting and to vote on matters submitted to the stockholders of the Corporation, including an opportunity to read or hear the proceedings of the meeting substantially concurrently with such proceedings; and (C) if any stockholder of the Corporation or proxyholder votes or takes other action at the meeting by means of remote communication, a record of such vote or other action shall be maintained by the Corporation.

(ii) No adjournment or postponement or notice of adjournment or postponement of any meeting shall be deemed to constitute a new notice (or extend any notice time period) of such meeting for purposes of this Section 2.12, and in order for any notification required to be delivered by a stockholder pursuant to this Section 2.12 to be timely, such notification must be delivered within the periods set forth above with respect to the originally scheduled meeting.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, for as long as the Investor Rights Agreement remains in effect with respect to any of the Sponsors (as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation) (the “Investor Rights Agreement Parties”), the Investor Rights Agreement Parties (to the extent then subject to the Investor Rights Agreement) shall not be subject to the notice procedures set forth in Section 2.12(a)(ii), Section 2.12(a)(iii), or Section 2.12(b) with respect to any annual or special meeting of stockholders to the extent necessary to effect the transactions and rights set forth in the Investor Rights Agreement. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prior to the Trigger Event (as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation), the Sponsors shall not be subject to the notice procedures set forth in Section 2.12(a)(ii), Section 2.12(a)(iii), or Section 2.12(b) with respect to any annual or special meeting of stockholders.

Notice of each special meeting of the Board shall be given, as provided in Section 11.2, to each director: (a) at least 24 hours before the meeting, if such notice is oral notice given personally or by telephone or written notice given by hand delivery or by means of a form of electronic transmission and delivery; (b) at least two days before the meeting, if such notice is sent by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service; and (c) at least five days before the meeting, if such notice is sent through the United States mail. If the Secretary of the Corporation shall fail or refuse to give such notice, then the notice may be given by the officer who called the meeting or the directors who requested the meeting. The notice of any regular meeting need not specify the purposes thereof, but notice of any special meeting shall specify the purposes thereof. A meeting of the Board may be held without notice immediately after the annual meeting of stockholders at the same place, if any, at which such meeting is held. Notice need not be given of regular meetings of the Board held at times fixed by resolution of the Board. Notice of any meeting need not be given to any director who shall attend such meeting (except when the director attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened), or who shall waive notice thereof, before or after such meeting, in writing (including by electronic transmission).

Section 3.5 Preferred Stock Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, whenever the holders of any one or more series of Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation, if any, shall have the right, voting separately as a series or separately as a class with one or more such other series, to elect directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, the election, term of office, removal, and other features of such directorships shall be governed by the terms of the Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation relating to any series of Preferred Stock) and the Investor Rights Agreement applicable thereto. The number of directors that may be elected by the holders of any such series of Preferred Stock shall be in addition to the total number of directors fixed by the Board pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation and these Bylaws. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the terms of such series, the number of directors that may be so elected by the holders of any such series of stock shall be elected for terms expiring at the next annual meeting of stockholders, and vacancies among directors so elected by the separate vote of the holders of any such series of Preferred Stock shall be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors elected by such series, or, if there are no such remaining directors, by the holders of such series in the same manner in which such series initially elected a director.

Section 3.6 Committees. Subject to the Investor Rights Agreement, the Board may from time to time establish one or more committees of the Board to serve at the pleasure of the Board (including, but not limited to, an Executive Committee, an Audit Committee and a Compensation Committee), which shall be comprised of such members of the Board, and have such duties and be vested with such powers as the Board shall from time to time determine. Any director may belong to any number of committees of the Board. Subject to the Certificate of Incorporation and the Investor Rights Agreement, the Board may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee. In the absence or disqualification of a member of a committee, the member or members present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not such member or members constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board to act at the meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified member, subject to the Investor Rights Agreement. Subject to the Certificate of Incorporation and the Investor Rights Agreement, unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws or the resolution of the Board designating the committee, a committee may create one or more subcommittees, each subcommittee to consist of one or more members of the committee, and may delegate to a subcommittee any or all of the powers and authority of the committee. Any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution of the Board establishing such committee, subject to the Investor Rights Agreement, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation, and may authorize the seal of the Corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it; but no such committee shall have the power or authority in reference to the following matters: (a) approving or adopting, or recommending to the stockholders, any action or matter (other than the election or removal of directors) expressly required by the DGCL to be submitted to stockholders for approval or (b) adopting, amending or repealing any Bylaw of the Corporation. Each committee of the Board may fix its own rules of procedure and shall hold its meetings as provided by such rules, except as may otherwise be provided by a resolution of the Board designating such committee or the Investor Rights Agreement. Unless otherwise provided in such a resolution or the Investor Rights Agreement, the presence of at least a majority of the members of the committee shall be necessary to constitute a quorum; and all matters shall be determined by a majority affirmative vote of the members present at a meeting of the committee at which a quorum is present. Unless otherwise provided in such a resolution or the Investor Rights Agreement, in the event that a member and that member’s alternate, if alternates are designated by the Board, of such committee is or are absent or disqualified, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not such member or members constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board to act at the meeting in place of any such absent or disqualified member.

Section 3.7 Consent in Lieu of Meeting. Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting if all members of the Board or committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing (including by electronic transmission), and the writing or writings (including any electronic transmission or transmissions) are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board or committee.

Section 3.8 Remote Meetings. The members of the Board or any committee thereof may participate in a meeting of such Board or committee, as the case may be, by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in a meeting pursuant to this Section 3.8 shall constitute presence in person at such a meeting.

16

Section 3.10 Reliance on Books and Records.

ARTICLE V

INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES

Section 5.1 Right to Indemnification. Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative or any other type whatsoever (hereinafter a “proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or an officer of the Corporation or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, member, manager, officer, employee, agent or trustee of another corporation or of a partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with

17

respect to an employee benefit plan (hereinafter an “indemnitee”), shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than such law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as director, officer, employee, agent or trustee or in any other capacity while serving as director, officer, employee, agent or trustee, against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such indemnitee in connection therewith. Except as provided in Section 5.3 with respect to proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses or with respect to any compulsory counterclaim brought by such indemnitee, the Corporation shall indemnify any such indemnitee in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such indemnitee only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board.

Section 5.2 Right to Advancement of Expenses. In addition to the right to indemnification conferred in Section 5.1, an indemnitee shall also have the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses (including attorney’s fees) incurred in appearing at, participating in or defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition or in connection with a proceeding brought to establish or enforce a right to indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Article V (which shall be governed by Section 5.3) (hereinafter an “advancement of expenses”); provided, however, that, if (x) the DGCL requires or (y) in the case of an advance made in a proceeding brought to establish or enforce a right to indemnification or advancement, an advancement of expenses incurred by an indemnitee in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such indemnitee, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) shall be made solely upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking (hereinafter an “undertaking”), by or on behalf of such indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined after final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal (hereinafter a “final adjudication”) that such indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Article V or otherwise.

Section 5.3 Right of Indemnitee to Bring Suit. If a claim under Section 5.1 or Section 5.2 is not paid in full by the Corporation within (a) 60 days after a written claim for indemnification has been received by the Corporation or (b) 20 days after a claim for an advancement of expenses has been received by the Corporation, the indemnitee may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim or to obtain advancement of expenses, as applicable. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, if the indemnitee is successful in whole or in part in any such suit, or in a suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting or defending such suit. In (i) any suit brought by the indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder (but not in a suit brought by the indemnitee to enforce a right to an advancement of expenses) it shall be a defense of the Corporation that, and (ii) any suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Corporation shall be entitled to recover such expenses upon a final adjudication that, the indemnitee has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the DGCL. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including by its directors who are not parties to such action, a committee of such directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such suit that indemnification of the indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because the indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including by its directors who are not parties to such action, a committee of such directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that the indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct or, in the case of such a suit brought by the indemnitee, be a defense to such suit. In any suit brought by the indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses hereunder, or brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the burden of proving that the indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article V or otherwise shall be on the Corporation.

18

Section 5.4 Non-Exclusivity of Rights.

(a) The provision of indemnification to or the advancement of expenses and costs to any indemnitee under this Article V, or the entitlement of any indemnitee to indemnification or advancement of expenses and costs under this Article V, shall not limit or restrict in any way the power of the Corporation to indemnify or advance expenses and costs to such indemnitee in any other way permitted by law or be deemed exclusive of, or invalidate, any right to which any indemnitee seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses and costs may be entitled under any law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such indemnitee’s capacity as an officer, director, employee or agent of the Corporation and as to action in any other capacity. The Corporation hereby acknowledges that certain directors and/or officers may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by ▇▇▇▇ Capital Private Equity, LP or any of its affiliates (collectively, the “Fund Indemnitors”). The Corporation hereby agrees (i) that it is the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to such directors and/or officers are primary and any obligation of the Fund Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by such directors and/or officers are secondary), (ii) that it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by such directors and/or officers and shall be liable for the full amount of all costs, expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of these Bylaws, without regard to any rights such directors and/or officers may have against the Fund Indemnitors, and (iii) that it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Fund Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Fund Indemnitors, as applicable, for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Corporation further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Fund Indemnitors on behalf of such directors and/or officers with respect to any claim for which such directors and/or officers have sought indemnification from the Corporation shall affect the foregoing and the Fund Indemnitors, as applicable, shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of such directors and/or officers against the Corporation.

(b) Given that certain jointly indemnifiable claims (as defined below) may arise due to the service of the indemnitee as a director and/or officer of the Corporation or as a director, officer, employee, agent or trustee of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise at the request of the indemnitee-related entities (as defined below), the Corporation shall be fully and primarily responsible for the payment to the indemnitee in respect of indemnification or advancement of expenses in connection with any such jointly indemnifiable claims, pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Article V, irrespective of any right of recovery the indemnitee may have from the indemnitee-related entities. Under no circumstance shall the Corporation be entitled to any right of subrogation against or contribution by the indemnitee-related entities and no right of advancement, indemnification or recovery the indemnitee may have from the indemnitee-related entities shall reduce or otherwise alter the rights of the indemnitee or the obligations of the Corporation under this Article V. In the event that any of the indemnitee-related entities shall make any payment to the indemnitee in respect of indemnification or advancement of expenses with respect to any jointly indemnifiable claim, the indemnitee-related entity making such payment shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment

19

to all of the rights of recovery of the indemnitee against the Corporation, and the indemnitee shall execute all papers reasonably required and shall do all things that may be reasonably necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents as may be necessary to enable the indemnitee-related entities effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights. Each of the indemnitee-related entities shall be third-party beneficiaries with respect to this Section 5.4(b), entitled to enforce this Section 5.4(b). For purposes of this Section 5.4(b), the following terms shall have the following meanings:

(i) The term “indemnitee-related entities” means any corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise (other than the Corporation or any other corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise for which the indemnitee has agreed, on behalf of the Corporation or at the Corporation’s request, to serve as a director, officer, employee or agent and which service is covered by the indemnity described herein) from whom an indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification or advancement of expenses with respect to which, in whole or in part, the Corporation may also have an indemnification or advancement obligation.

(ii) The term “jointly indemnifiable claims” shall be broadly construed and shall include, without limitation, any action, suit or proceeding for which the indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification or advancement of expenses from both the indemnitee-related entities and the Corporation pursuant to applicable law, any agreement, certificate of incorporation, by-laws, partnership agreement, operating agreement, certificate of formation, certificate of limited partnership or comparable organizational documents of the Corporation or the indemnitee-related entities, as applicable.

Section 5.5 Contract Rights. The rights conferred upon indemnitees in this Article V shall be contract rights and such rights shall continue as to an indemnitee who has ceased to be a director or officer, and shall inure to the benefit of the indemnitee’s heirs, executors and administrators. Any amendment, alteration or repeal of this Article V that adversely affects any right of an indemnitee or its successors shall be prospective only and shall not limit, eliminate, or impair any such right with respect to any proceeding involving any occurrence or alleged occurrence of any action or omission to act that took place prior to such amendment or repeal.

Section 5.6 Insurance. The Corporation shall purchase and maintain insurance (or be named on the insurance policy of an affiliate), at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, as the Board shall determine in its sole discretion, against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL.

Section 5.7 Employees and Agents. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board, grant rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to any employee or agent of the Corporation to the fullest extent of the provisions of this Article V with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of directors and officers of the Corporation.

(b) If a certificate representing shares has been lost, apparently destroyed or wrongfully taken, and the owner fails to notify the Corporation of that fact within a reasonable time after the owner has notice of such loss, apparent destruction or wrongful taking and the Corporation registers a transfer of such shares before receiving notification, the owner shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be precluded from asserting against the Corporation any claim for registering such transfer or a claim to a new certificate representing such shares or such shares in uncertificated form.

21

Section 8.4 Transfer of Stock.

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 11.1 Notice. Whenever notice is required to be given by law or under any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, notice of any meeting need not be given to any person who shall attend such meeting (except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened), or who shall waive notice thereof, before or after such meeting, in writing (including by electronic transmission).

Section 11.2 Means of Giving Notice. Except as otherwise set forth in any applicable law or any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, notice to any Director or stockholder of any meeting or any other matter under the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws shall be given by the following means:

(a) Notice to Directors. Whenever under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws notice is required to be given to any director, such notice shall be given either (i) in writing and hand delivered, sent by mail, or sent by a nationally recognized delivery service, (ii) by means of facsimile telecommunication or other form of electronic transmission, or (iii) by oral notice given personally or by telephone. A notice to a director will be deemed given as follows: (A) if given by hand delivery, orally in person, or by telephone, when actually received by the director; (B) if sent through the United States mail, when deposited in the United States mail, with postage and fees thereon prepaid, addressed to the director at the director’s address appearing on the records of the Corporation; (C) if sent for next day delivery by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, when deposited with such service, with fees thereon prepaid, addressed to the director at the director’s address appearing on the records of the Corporation; (D) if sent by facsimile telecommunication, when sent to the facsimile transmission number for such director appearing on the records of the Corporation; (E) if sent by electronic mail, when sent to the electronic mail address for such director appearing on the records of the Corporation; or (F) if sent by any other form of electronic transmission, when sent to the address, location or number (as applicable) for such director appearing on the records of the Corporation.

(b) Electronic Transmission. “Electronic transmission” means any form of communication, not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved and reviewed by a recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process, including without limitation a facsimile telecommunication.

(c) Notice to Stockholders Sharing Same Address. Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively by the Corporation to stockholders, any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws shall be effective if given by a single written notice to stockholders who share an address if consented to by the stockholders at that address to whom such notice is given. A stockholder may revoke such stockholder’s consent by delivering written notice of such revocation to the Corporation. Any stockholder who fails to object in writing to the Corporation within 60 days of having been given written notice by the Corporation of its intention to send such a single written notice shall be deemed to have consented to receiving such single written notice.

(d) Exceptions to Notice Requirements.

23

(i) Whenever notice is required to be given, under the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, to any person with whom communication is unlawful, the giving of such notice to such person shall not be required and there shall be no duty to apply to any governmental authority or agency for a license or permit to give such notice to such person. Any action or meeting that shall be taken or held without notice to any such person with whom communication is unlawful shall have the same force and effect as if such notice had been duly given. In the event that the action taken by the Corporation is such as to require the filing of a certificate with the Secretary of State of Delaware, the certificate shall state, if such is the fact and if notice is required, that notice was given to all persons entitled to receive notice except such persons with whom communication is unlawful.

(ii) Whenever notice is required to be given by the Corporation, under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, to any stockholder to whom (x) notice of two consecutive annual meetings of stockholders and all notices of stockholder meetings or of the taking of action by written consent of stockholders without a meeting to such stockholder during the period between such two consecutive annual meetings, or (y) all, and at least two payments (if sent by first-class mail) of dividends or interest on securities during a 12-month period, have been mailed addressed to such stockholder at such stockholder’s address as shown on the records of the Corporation and have been returned undeliverable, the giving of such notice to such stockholder shall not be required. Any action or meeting that shall be taken or held without notice to such stockholder shall have the same force and effect as if such notice had been duly given. If any such stockholder shall deliver to the Corporation a written notice setting forth such stockholder’s then current address, the requirement that notice be given to such stockholder shall be reinstated. In the event that the action taken by the Corporation is such as to require the filing of a certificate with the Secretary of State of Delaware, the certificate need not state that notice was not given to persons to whom notice was not required to be given pursuant to Section 230(b) of the DGCL. The exception in subsection (x) of the first sentence of this paragraph to the requirement that notice be given shall not be applicable to any notice returned as undeliverable if the notice was given by electronic transmission. The exception in subsection (x) of the first sentence of this paragraph to the requirement that notice be given shall not be applicable to any stockholder whose electronic mail address appears on the records of the Corporation and to whom notice by electronic transmission is not prohibited by Section 232 of the DGCL.

Section 11.3 Headings. Section headings in these Bylaws are for convenience of reference only and shall not be given any substantive effect in limiting or otherwise construing any provision herein.

Section 11.4 Conflicts. In the event that any provision of these Bylaws is or becomes inconsistent with any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or the DGCL, the provision of these Bylaws shall not be given any effect to the extent of such inconsistency but shall otherwise be given full force and effect.

2.3. Sponsor Representation.

Any nominee designated by BC Cyan or the Sponsor pursuant to Section 2.2, Section 2.3 or Section 2.5, as applicable, will be subject to the PubCo’s customary due diligence process, including its review of a completed questionnaire and a background check.

ARTICLE III

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

The PubCo will perform and comply, and cause each of its subsidiaries to perform and comply, with such of the following provisions as are applicable to it. Each Holder will perform and comply with such of the following provisions as are applicable to such Holder.

3.1. Shelf Registration.

3.1.1. Filing. Within thirty (30) calendar days following the Effective Date, the PubCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to submit to or file with the SEC a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form S-1 (the “Form S-1 Shelf”) or a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form S-3 (the “Form S-3 Shelf”), if the PubCo is then eligible to use a Form S-3 Shelf, in each case, covering the resale of all the Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) business days prior to such submission or filing) on a delayed or continuous basis and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have such Shelf declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (a) the 90th calendar day following the filing date thereof if the SEC notifies the PubCo that it will “review” the Registration Statement and (b) the 10^th business day after the date the PubCo is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review. Such Shelf shall provide for the resale of the Registrable Securities included therein pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, any Holder named therein. The PubCo shall maintain a Shelf in accordance with the terms hereof, and shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements as may be necessary to keep a Shelf continuously effective, available for use to permit the Holders named therein to sell their Registrable Securities included therein and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities. In the event the PubCo files a Form S-1 Shelf, the PubCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to convert the Form S-1 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement) to a Form S-3 Shelf as soon as practicable after the PubCo is eligible to use Form S-3. The PubCo’s obligation under this Section 3.1.1 shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section 3.5.4.

- 11 -

3.1.2. Subsequent Shelf Registration. If any Shelf ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time while Registrable Securities are still outstanding, the PubCo shall, subject to Section 3.5.4, use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable cause such Shelf to again become effective under the Securities Act (including using its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable amend such Shelf in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf or file an additional registration statement as a Shelf Registration (a “Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement”) registering the resale of all Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) business days prior to such filing), and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, any Holder named therein. If a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is filed, the PubCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the filing thereof (it being agreed that the Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) if the PubCo is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) at the most recent applicable eligibility determination date) and (ii) keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, available for use to permit the Holders named therein to sell their Registrable Securities included therein and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 to the extent that the PubCo is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on another appropriate form. The PubCo’s obligation under this Section 3.1.2 shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section 3.5.4.

3.1.3. Additional Registrable Securities. Subject to Section 3.5.4, in the event that any Holder holds Registrable Securities that are not registered for resale on a delayed or continuous basis, the PubCo, upon written request of a Holder of at least one percent (1.0%) of the outstanding Registrable Securities, shall promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the resale of such Registrable Securities to be covered by either, at the PubCo’s option, any then available Shelf (including by means of a post-effective amendment) or by filing a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement and cause the same to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing and such Shelf or Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be subject to the terms hereof; provided, however, that the PubCo shall only be required to cause such additional Registrable Securities to be so covered two (2) times per calendar year for each Holder.

3.1.4. Requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns. Subject to Section 3.5.4, at any time and from time to time when an effective Shelf is on file with the SEC, (a) the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities or (b) BC Cyan (any of such demanding parties, a “Demanding Holder”) may request to sell all or any portion of its Registrable Securities in an Underwritten Offering that is registered pursuant to the Shelf (each, an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”); provided that the PubCo shall only be obligated to effect an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if such offering shall include Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by the Demanding Holder, either individually or together with other

3.1.5. Reduction of Underwritten Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, in good faith, advises the PubCo, the Demanding Holders and the Holders requesting piggy back rights pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such Underwritten Shelf Takedown (the “Requesting Holders”) (if any) in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) desire to sell, taken together with all other Shares or other equity securities that the PubCo desires to sell and all other Shares or other equity securities, if any, that have been requested to be sold in such Underwritten Offering pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by any other stockholders of the PubCo, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten Offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Securities”), then the PubCo shall include in such Underwritten Offering, (i) first, the Registrable Securities of BC Cyan and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities (to the extent either is a Requesting Holder) and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that BC Cyan and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities (to the extent either is a Requesting Holder) have requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that BC Cyan and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities (to the extent either is a Requesting Holder) have requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown); (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Registrable Securities of any other Requesting Holders that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each such Requesting Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that all of the Requesting Holders, other than BC Cyan and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities, have requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown); (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), equity securities, if any, that have been requested to be sold in such Underwritten Offering pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by any other equityholders of the PubCo that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (iv) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), equity securities that the PubCo desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

- 13 -

3.1.6. Withdrawal. Prior to the filing of the applicable “red ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇” prospectus or prospectus supplement used for marketing such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating an Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall have the right to withdraw from such Underwritten Shelf Takedown for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification (a “Withdrawal Notice”) to the PubCo and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of their intention to withdraw from such Underwritten Shelf Takedown; provided that any Holder or Holders may elect to have the PubCo continue an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if the Minimum Takedown Threshold would still be satisfied by the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown by such Holder or Holders. Following the receipt of any Withdrawal Notice, the PubCo shall promptly forward such Withdrawal Notice to any other Holders that had elected to participate in such Shelf Takedown. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the PubCo shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Shelf Takedown prior to its withdrawal under this Section 3.1.6.

3.1.7. SEC Cutback. Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this Section 3.1, in the event the SEC informs the PubCo that all of the Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, the PubCo agrees to promptly (i) inform each of the Holders thereof and use its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the Shelf as required by the SEC and/or (ii) withdraw the Shelf and file a new registration statement (a “New Registration Statement”) on Form S-3, or if Form S-3 is not then available to the PubCo for such registration statement, on such other form available to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering to register the Registrable Securities; provided, however, that prior to filing such amendment or New Registration Statement, the PubCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the SEC for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with any publicly-available written or oral guidance, comments, requirements or requests of the SEC staff (the “SEC Guidance”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation on the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that the PubCo used diligent efforts to advocate with the SEC for the registration of all or a greater number of Registrable Securities), unless otherwise directed in writing by a Holder as to further limit its Registrable Securities to be included on the Registration Statement, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by the Holders, subject to a determination by the SEC that certain Holders must be reduced first based on the number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders. In the event the PubCo amends the Shelf or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, the PubCo will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC, as promptly as allowed by SEC or SEC Guidance provided to the PubCo or to registrants of securities in general, one or more registration statements on Form S-3 or such other form available to register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the Shelf, as amended, or the New Registration Statement.

- 14 -

3.1.8. Long-Form Demands. During such times as no Shelf is effective, BC Cyan or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities may demand that the PubCo file a Registration Statement on Form S-1 for the purpose of conducting an Underwritten Offering of any or all of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities’ or BC Cyan’s Registrable Securities. The PubCo shall file such Registration Statement within thirty (30) days of receipt of such demand and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to be declared effective within sixty (60) days of filing. The provisions of Sections 3.1.3–3.1.7 shall apply to this Section 3.1.8 as if a demand under this Section 3.1.8 were an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, provided that in order to withdraw a demand under this Section 3.1.8, such withdrawal must be received by the PubCo prior to the PubCo having publicly filed a Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 3.1.8.

3.2. Piggyback Registration.

3.2.1. Piggyback Rights. Subject to Section 3.4.3, if the PubCo or any Holder proposes to conduct a registered offering of, or if the PubCo proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Registration of, equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into, equity securities, for its own account or for the account of stockholders of the PubCo (or by the PubCo and by the stockholders of the PubCo including, without limitation, an Underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant to Section 3.1), other than a Registration Statement (or any registered offering with respect thereto) (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) on Form S-4 (or similar form that relates to a transaction subject to Rule 145 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto), (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the PubCo, (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, (v) for a Block Trade, (vi) filed pursuant to Section 3.1.1 hereunder, or (vii) filed in connection with an “at-the-market” offering or (viii) filed in connection with any business combination or acquisition by or involving the PubCo or its subsidiaries, then the PubCo shall give written notice of such proposed offering to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but not less than seven (7) days before the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement or, in the case of an Underwritten Offering pursuant to a Shelf Registration, the applicable “red ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇” prospectus or prospectus supplement used for marketing such offering, which notice shall (A) describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, in such offering, and (B) offer to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities, other than Jefferies, the opportunity to include in such registered offering such number of Registrable Securities as such Holders may request in writing within three (3) business days after receipt of such written notice (such registered offering, a “Piggyback Registration”). Subject to Section 3.2.2, the PubCo shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggyback Registration and, if applicable, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of such Piggyback Registration to permit the Registrable Securities requested by the Holders pursuant to this Section 3.2.1 to be included therein on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the PubCo included in such registered offering and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. The inclusion of any Holder’s Registrable Securities in a Piggyback Registration shall be subject to such Holder agreement to enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering.

- 15 -

3.2.2. Reduction of Piggyback Registration. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Offering that is to be a Piggyback Registration, in good faith, advises the PubCo and the Holders of Registrable Securities participating in the Piggyback Registration in writing that the dollar amount or number of Shares or other equity securities that the PubCo desires to sell, taken together with (i) the Shares or other equity securities, if any, as to which Registration or a registered offering has been demanded pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, (ii) the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof, and (iii) the Shares or other equity securities, if any, as to which Registration or a registered offering has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights of persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, exceeds the Maximum Number of Securities, then:

(a) if the Registration or registered offering is undertaken for the PubCo’s account, the PubCo shall include in any such Registration or registered offering (A) first, the Shares or other equity securities that the PubCo desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of each Holder exercising its rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3.2.1, pro rata, based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Offering and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that all Holders have requested to be included in such Underwritten Offering, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Shares or other equity securities, if any, as to which Registration or a registered offering has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights of persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities;

(b) if the Registration or registered offering is pursuant to a demand by persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, then the PubCo shall include in any such Registration or registered offering (A) first, the Shares or other equity securities, if any, of such requesting persons or entities, other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of each Holder exercising its rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3.2.1, pro rata, based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Offering relative to the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that all Holders have requested to be included in such Underwritten Offering, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Shares or other equity securities, if any, as to which Registration or a registered offering has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights of persons or entities other than those included pursuant to the foregoing clauses (A) and (B) and other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B), and (C), the Shares or other equity securities that the PubCo desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities

- 16 -

(c) for the avoidance of doubt, if the Registration or registered offering is pursuant to a request by Holder(s) of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof, then the PubCo shall include in any such Registration or registered offering securities in the priority set forth in Section 3.1.5.

3.2.3. Piggyback Registration Withdrawal. Any Holder of Registrable Securities (other than a Demanding Holder, whose right to withdraw from an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, and related obligations, shall be governed by Section 3.1.6) shall have the right to withdraw from a Piggyback Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the PubCo and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of his, her or its intention to withdraw from such Piggyback Registration up to two (2) business days prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the SEC with respect to such Piggyback Registration or, in the case of a Piggyback Registration pursuant to a Shelf Registration, up to two (2) business days prior to the filing of the applicable “red ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇” prospectus or prospectus supplement with respect to such Piggyback Registration used for marketing such transaction. The PubCo (whether on its own good faith determination or as the result of a request for withdrawal by persons or entities pursuant to separate written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement filed with the SEC in connection with a Piggyback Registration (which, in no circumstance, shall include a Shelf) at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the PubCo shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the Piggyback Registration prior to its withdrawal under this Section 3.2.3.

3.2.4. Unlimited Piggyback Registration Rights. For purposes of clarity, subject to Section 3.1.6, any Piggyback Registration effected pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof shall not be counted as a demand for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown under Section 3.1.4 hereof.

3.3. Market Stand-off. In connection with any Underwritten Offering of equity securities of the PubCo (other than a Block Trade), if requested by the managing Underwriters, each Holder that is (a) an executive officer of the PubCo, (b) a director of the PubCo or (c) a Holder in excess of three percent (3%) of the outstanding Shares agrees that it shall not Transfer any Shares or other equity securities of the PubCo (other than those included in such offering pursuant to this Agreement), without the prior written consent of the PubCo, during the 90-day period (or such shorter time agreed to by the managing Underwriters) beginning on the date of pricing of such offering, except as expressly permitted by such lock-up agreement or in the event the managing Underwriters otherwise agree by written consent. Each such Holder agrees to execute a customary lock-up agreement in favor of the Underwriters to such effect (in each case on substantially the same terms and conditions as all such Holders).

- 17 -

3.4. Block Trades.

3.4.1. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article III, but subject to Section 3.5.4, at any time and from time to time when an effective Shelf is on file with the SEC, if a Demanding Holder wishes to engage in an offer commonly known as a “block trade” (a “Block Trade”) not involving (i) a “roadshow,” (ii) the issuance of a “comfort letter” by the PubCo’s auditors or (iii) the issuance of a legal opinion by the PubCo’s legal counsel, (x) with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed $[25] million in the aggregate, or (y) with respect to all remaining Registrable Securities held by the Demanding Holder, provided that the total offering price is reasonably expected to exceed $10 million in the aggregate, then such Demanding Holder only needs to notify the PubCo of the Block Trade at least five (5) business days prior to the day such offering is to commence and the PubCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate such Block Trade; provided that the Demanding Holders representing a majority of the Registrable Securities wishing to engage in the Block Trade shall use commercially reasonable efforts to work with the PubCo and any Underwriters, brokers, sales agents or placement agents prior to making such request in order to facilitate preparation of the registration statement, prospectus and other offering documentation related to the Block Trade.

3.4.2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the PubCo shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Block Trade prior to its withdrawal under this Section 3.4.2.

3.4.3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Section 3.2 shall not apply to a Block Trade initiated by a Demanding Holder pursuant to this Agreement.

3.4.4. The Demanding Holder in a Block Trade shall have the right to select the Underwriters and any brokers, sales agents or placement agents (if any) for such Block Trade (in each case, which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks).

3.4.5. For the avoidance of doubt, any Block Trade effected pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall not be counted as a demand for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant to Section 3.1.4 hereof.

3.5. PubCo Procedures.

3.5.1. General. In connection with any Shelf and/or Shelf Takedown and/or other disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to a registration statement contemplated herein (to the extent applicable), the PubCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect such Registration to permit the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended plan of distribution thereof, and pursuant thereto the PubCo shall as expeditiously as possible:

3.5.1.1. prepare and file with the SEC as soon as practicable a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective until all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement are sold in accordance with the intended plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement or have ceased to be Registrable Securities;

3.5.1.2. prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement, and such supplements to the Prospectus, (i) as may be reasonably requested by any Holder that, together with such Holder’s Permitted Transferees, holds at least three percent (3%) of the Registrable Securities registered on such Registration Statement or any Underwriter of Registrable Securities or (ii) as may be required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the PubCo or by the Securities Act or rules and regulations thereunder to keep the Registration Statement effective until all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement are sold in accordance with the intended plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus or have ceased to be Registrable Securities;

- 18 -

3.5.1.3. prior to filing a Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish without charge to the Underwriters, if any, and the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration, and such Holders’ legal counsel, copies of such Registration Statement as proposed to be filed, each amendment and supplement to such Registration Statement (in each case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary Prospectus), and such other documents as the Underwriters and the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration or the legal counsel for any such Holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holders;

3.5.1.4. prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may request (or provide evidence satisfactory to such Holders that the Registrable Securities are exempt from such registration or qualification) and (ii) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the PubCo and do any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the PubCo shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify or take any action to which it would be subject to general service of process or taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then otherwise so subject;

3.5.1.5. cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each national securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the PubCo are then listed;

3.5.1.6. provide a transfer agent or warrant agent, as applicable, and registrar for all such Registrable Securities no later than the effective date of such Registration Statement;

3.5.1.7. advise each seller of such Registrable Securities, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance of any stop order by the SEC suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose and promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal if such stop order should be issued;

- 19 -

3.5.1.8. at least three (3) business days prior to the filing of any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or Prospectus (or such shorter period of time as may be (a) necessary in order to comply with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Act or Exchange Act, as applicable or (b) advisable in order to reduce the number of days that sales are suspended pursuant to Section 3.5.4), furnish a copy thereof to each seller of such Registrable Securities or its counsel (excluding any exhibits thereto and any filing made under the Exchange Act that is to be incorporated by reference therein);

3.5.1.9. notify the Holders, at any time when a Prospectus relating to such Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes a Misstatement, and then to correct such Misstatement as set forth in Section 3.5.4;

3.5.1.10. in the event of an Underwritten Offering, a Block Trade, or sale by a broker, placement agent or sales agent pursuant to such Registration, in each of the following cases to the extent customary for a transaction of its type, permit representatives of the Holders, the Underwriters or other financial institutions facilitating such Underwritten Offering, Block Trade or other sale pursuant to such Registration, if any, and any attorney, consultant or accountant retained by such Holders or Underwriter to participate, at each such person’s or entity’s own expense, in the preparation of the Registration Statement, and cause the PubCo’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such representative, Underwriter, financial institution, attorney, consultant or accountant in connection with the Registration; provided, however, that such representatives, Underwriters or financial institutions agree to confidentiality arrangements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the PubCo, prior to the release or disclosure of any such information;

3.5.1.11. in the event of an Underwritten Offering, if requested by any Underwriters, include in any Prospectus updated financial or business information for the PubCo’s most recent period or current quarterly period (including estimated results or ranges of results) if required for purposes of marketing such Underwritten Offering in the view of the Underwriter or necessary for the Underwriters to receive a customary “comfort letter” from the Target’s auditors;

3.5.1.12. in the event of an Underwritten Offering, make available for inspection by a representative of the Holders, the Underwriters or other financial institutions facilitating such Underwritten Offering, if any, and any attorney, consultant or accountant retained by such Holders or Underwriters, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate and business documents and properties of the PubCo as will be necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility, and cause the PubCo’s officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and independent accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by them in connection therewith;

3.5.1.13. obtain a “cold comfort” letter from the PubCo’s independent registered public accountants in the event of an Underwritten Offering in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by “cold comfort” letters for a transaction of its type as the managing Underwriter may reasonably request, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the participating Holders;

- 20 -

3.5.1.14. in the event of an Underwritten Offering, on the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration, to the extent customary for a transaction of its type, obtain an opinion and negative assurance letter, each dated such date, of counsel representing the PubCo for the purposes of such Registration, addressed to the participating Holders and the Underwriters covering such legal matters with respect to the Registration in respect of which such opinion or negative assurance letter, as applicable, is being given as the participating Holders or Underwriter may reasonably request and as are customarily included in such opinions and negative assurance letters, as applicable;

3.5.1.15. in the event of any Underwritten Offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing Underwriter of such offering or sale;

3.5.1.16. make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve (12) months beginning with the first day of the PubCo’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the Registration Statement which satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any successor rule then in effect); provided that such requirements shall be deemed satisfied by the PubCo’s compliance with its reporting requirements pursuant to the Exchange Act if such compliance satisfies the conditions of Rule 158;

3.5.1.17. with respect to an Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section 3.1.4 with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $[35] million, use its commercially reasonable efforts to make available senior executives of the PubCo to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested by the Underwriter in such Underwritten Offering; and

3.5.1.18. otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the participating Holders, consistent with the terms of this Agreement, in connection with such Registration.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the PubCo shall not be required to provide any documents or information to an Underwriter, broker, sales agent or placement agent if such Underwriter, broker, sales agent or placement agent has not then been selected with respect to the applicable Underwritten Offering or other offering involving a registration as an Underwriter, broker, sales agent or placement agent, as applicable.

3.5.2. Registration Expenses. The Registration Expenses of all Registrations shall be borne by the PubCo. It is acknowledged by the Holders that the Holders shall bear all incremental selling expenses relating to the sale of Registrable Securities, such as Underwriters’ commissions and discounts, brokerage fees, Underwriter marketing costs and, other than as set forth in the definition of “Registration Expenses,” all fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing the Holders.

3.5.3. Requirements for Participation in Registration Statement in Offerings. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any Holder does not provide the PubCo with its requested Holder Information, the PubCo may exclude such Holder’s Registrable Securities from the applicable Registration Statement or Prospectus if the PubCo determines, based on the advice of counsel, that it is necessary to include such information in the applicable

- 21 -

Registration Statement or Prospectus and such Holder continues thereafter to withhold such information. In addition, no person or entity may participate in any Underwritten Offering or other offering for equity securities of the PubCo pursuant to a Registration initiated by the PubCo hereunder unless such person or entity (i) agrees to sell such person’s or entity’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting, sales, distribution or placement arrangements approved by the PubCo and (ii) completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, custody agreements, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting or other agreements and other customary documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting, sales, distribution or placement arrangements. For the avoidance of doubt, the exclusion of a Holder’s Registrable Securities as a result of this Section 3.5.3 shall not affect the registration of the other Registrable Securities to be included in such Registration.

3.5.4. Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure; Restrictions on Registration Rights.

3.5.4.1. Upon receipt of written notice from the PubCo that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until it has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood that the PubCo hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as reasonably practicable after the time of such notice), or until it is advised in writing by the PubCo that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed.

3.5.4.2. Subject to Section 3.4.4, if the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would (a) require the PubCo to make an Adverse Disclosure, (b) require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the PubCo for reasons beyond the PubCo’s control, or (c) in the good faith judgment of the Board, be seriously detrimental to the PubCo and the Board concludes as a result that it is essential to defer such filing, initial effectiveness or continued use at such time, the PubCo may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders (which notice shall not specify the nature of the event giving rise to such delay or suspension), delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend the use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time determined in good faith by the PubCo to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the PubCo exercises its rights under this Section 3.4.2, the Holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of the Prospectus relating to any Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities until such Holder receives written notice from the PubCo that such sales or offers of Registrable Securities may be resumed, and in each case maintain the confidentiality of such notice and its contents.

3.5.4.3. Subject to Section 3.4.4, (a) during the period starting with the date 60 days prior to the PubCo’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on a date 120 days after the effective date of, a PubCo-initiated Registration and provided that the PubCo continues to actively employ, in good faith, all commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the applicable Shelf Registration Statement, or (b) if, pursuant to Section 3.1.4, Holders have requested an Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the PubCo and Holders are unable to obtain the commitment of underwriters to firmly underwrite such offering, the PubCo may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay any other registered offering pursuant to Section 3.1.4 or Section 3.4.

- 22 -

3.5.4.4. The right to delay or suspend any filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement pursuant to Section 3.4.2 or a registered offering pursuant to Section 3.4.3 shall be exercised by the PubCo, in the aggregate, for not more than 90 consecutive calendar days or more than 120 total calendar days in each case, during any 12-month period.

3.5.5. Reporting Obligations. As long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the PubCo, at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, covenants to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the PubCo after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to promptly furnish the Holders with true and complete copies of all such filings; provided that any documents publicly filed or furnished with the SEC pursuant to the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System shall be deemed to have been furnished or delivered to the Holders pursuant to this Section 3.5.5. The PubCo further covenants that it shall 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 Shares held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule then in effect). In connection with a sale or transfer of Registrable Securities exempt from Section 5 of the Securities Act or through any broker-dealer transactions described in the plan of distribution set forth within the Prospectus and pursuant to the Registration Statement of which such Prospectus forms a part, the PubCo shall, subject to the receipt of any customary documentation reasonably required from the applicable Holders and/or their broker(s) in connection therewith, (a) promptly instruct its transfer agent to remove any restrictive legends applicable to the Registrable Securities being sold or transferred and (b) to the extent required by the transfer agent deliver the necessary legal opinions or instruction letters, as applicable, to the transfer agent in connection with the instruction under subclause (a); provided that to the extent that a sale or transfer of Registrable Securities exempt from Section 5 of the Securities Act results, pursuant to the Securities Act, in the transferee of such securities holding restricted securities, then the PubCo shall be entitled to place appropriate legends on such securities following such sale or transfer. Following such time as Rule 144 is available, with a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, the PubCo covenants that it will (a) make available information necessary to comply with Rule 144, if available with respect to resales of the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, at all times, and (b) take such further action as the Holders may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holders to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (if available with respect to resales of the Registrable Securities), as such rule may be amended from time to time.

Upon the request of any Holder, the PubCo shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

3.6. Indemnification.

3.6.1. By the PubCo. The PubCo agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers, directors and agents and each person or entity who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act), against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation,

- 23 -

reasonable and documented outside attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in or incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing to the PubCo by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for use therein. The PubCo shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers and directors and each person or entity who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to the indemnification of the Holder.

3.6.2. By the Holders. In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish (or cause to be furnished) to the PubCo in writing such customary information and affidavits as the PubCo reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus (the “Holder Information”) and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the PubCo, its directors, officers and agents and each person or entity who controls the PubCo (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented outside attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained or incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement is contained in (or not contained in, in the case of an omission) any Holder Information; provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities, and the liability of each such Holder of Registrable Securities shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each person or entity who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) with respect to any Holder Information to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the PubCo.

3.6.3. Claim Procedure. Any person or entity entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying Party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s or entity’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying Party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying Parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified Party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying Party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified Party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all Parties indemnified by such indemnifying Party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified Party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified Party and any other of such indemnified Parties with respect to such claim.

- 24 -

3.6.4. Release. No indemnifying Party shall, without the consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) of the indemnified Party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying Party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement includes a statement or admission of fault and culpability on the part of such indemnified Party or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

3.6.5. Non-exclusive Remedy; Survival. The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified Party or any officer, director or controlling person or entity of such indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of securities. The PubCo and each Holder of Registrable Securities participating in an offering also agrees to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified Party for contribution to such Party in the event the PubCo’s or such Holder’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.

3.6.6. Contribution. If the indemnification provided under Section 3.6.1 from the indemnifying Party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified Party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying Party and the indemnified Party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying Party and indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by (or not made by, in the case of an omission), or relates to information supplied by (or not supplied by in the case of an omission), such indemnifying Party or indemnified Party, and the indemnifying Party’s and indemnified Party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided, however, that the obligations of the Holders under this provision shall be several and not joint, and that the liability of any Holder under this Section 3.6.6 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a Party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 3.6.1, 3.6.2 and 3.6.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by such Party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The Parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 3.6.6 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 3.6.6. No person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 3.6.6 from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

- 25 -

3.7. Existing Registration Statements. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and subject to applicable law and regulation, the PubCo may satisfy any obligation hereunder to file a Registration Statement or to have a Registration Statement become effective by a specified date by designating, by notice to the Holders, a Registration Statement that previously has been filed with the SEC or become effective, as the case may be, as the relevant Registration Statement for purposes of satisfying such obligation, and all references to any such obligation shall be construed accordingly; provided that such previously filed Registration Statement may be, and is, amended or, subject to applicable securities laws, supplemented to add the number of Registrable Securities, and, to the extent necessary, to identify as selling stockholders those Holders demanding the filing of a Registration Statement pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. To the extent this Agreement refers to the filing or effectiveness of other Registration Statements, by or at a specified time and the PubCo has, in lieu of then filing such Registration Statements or having such Registration Statements become effective, designated a previously filed or effective Registration Statement as the relevant Registration Statement for such purposes, in accordance with the preceding sentence, such references shall be construed to refer to such designated Registration Statement, as amended or supplemented in the manner contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence.

3.8. Other Registration Rights.

3.8.1. Other than as provided in the Warrant Agreement, dated as of December 7, 2020, between the PubCo and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the PubCo represents and warrants that no person or entity, other than a Holder of Registrable Securities, has any right to require the PubCo to register any securities of the PubCo for sale or to include such securities of the PubCo in any Registration Statement filed by the PubCo for the sale of securities for its own account or for the account of any other person or entity. The PubCo hereby agrees and covenants that it will not grant rights to register any Class A Common Stock (or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Class A Common Stock) pursuant to the Securities Act that are more favorable or senior to those granted to the Holders hereunder without (a) the prior written consent of BC Cyan and the Sponsor; or (b) granting economically and legally equivalent rights to the Other Holders hereunder such that the Other Holders shall receive the benefit of such more favorable or senior terms and/or conditions. Further, the PubCo represents and warrants that this Agreement supersedes any other registration rights agreement or agreement with similar terms and conditions and in the event of a conflict between any such agreement or agreements and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

3.9. Term. Article III shall terminate with respect to any Holder on the date that such Holder no longer holds any Registrable Securities. The provisions of Section 3.5.5 and Section 3.6 shall survive any such termination with respect to such Holder.

3.10. Distributions. In the event that any of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities or BC Cyan, as applicable, (i) distribute any of their Registrable Securities to their direct equity holders or (ii) contribute any of their Registrable Securities to a controlled Affiliate, the distributees or contributees, as applicable, shall be treated as “Holders” hereunder; provided, however, that (x) such distributees or contributees, taken as a whole, shall not be entitled to rights in excess of those conferred on the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities or BC Cyan, as applicable, as if they each remained a single party to this Agreement and (y) such distributees or contributees shall be required, at the time of and as a condition to such distribution or contribution, to become a party to this Agreement.

ARTICLE IV

LOCK-UP

4.1. Lock-Up.

4.1.1. None of BC Cyan or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities shall Transfer, or make a public announcement of any intention to effect such Transfer, any Lock-Up Shares (as defined below) Beneficially Owned or otherwise held by such Person during the Lock-Up Period (as defined below); provided, that such prohibition shall not apply to Transfers permitted pursuant to Section 4.2. The “Lock-Up Period” shall be the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is six (6) months following the Closing Date. The “Lock-Up Shares” means (i) the Common Stock, (ii) the Preferred Stock (iii) the Warrants held by the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities and (iv) the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and (v) the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Warrants held by the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities, in each case immediately following the Closing.

4.1.2. During the Lock-Up Period, any purported Transfer of Lock-Up Shares other than in accordance with this Agreement shall be null and void, and the PubCo shall refuse to recognize any such Transfer for any purpose.

4.1.3. BC Cyan and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Common Stock Beneficially Owned by such Person, if any, shall remain subject to any restrictions on Transfer under applicable securities Laws of any Governmental Entity, including all applicable holding periods under the Securities Act and other rules of the SEC.

4.2. Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, during the Lock-Up Period BC Cyan and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entities may Transfer, without the consent of the PubCo, any of such Person’s Lock-Up Shares to (i) any of such Person’s Permitted Transferees, upon written notice to the PubCo, (ii) any members of such Person, any Affiliates of a member of such Person or any employees of a member of such Person or a member’s Affiliates or (iii) (a) a charitable organization, upon written notice to the PubCo; (b) in the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the individual; (c) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; or (d) pursuant to any liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the PubCo’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property subsequent to the Business Combination; provided, that in connection with any Transfer of such Lock-Up Shares pursuant to clause (i) above, (x) the restrictions and obligations contained in Section 4.1 and this Section 4.2 will continue to apply to such Lock-Up Shares after any Transfer of such Lock-Up Shares, and (y) the Transferee of such Lock-Up Shares shall have no rights under this Agreement, unless as otherwise set forth herein. Any Transferee of Lock-Up Shares shall be required, at the time of and as a condition to such Transfer, to become a party to this Agreement by executing and delivering a Joinder, whereupon such Transferee will be treated as a Party (with the same rights and obligations as the Transferor) for all purposes of this Agreement.

No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

5.2. Assignment; Successors and Assigns; No Third Party Beneficiaries.

5.2.1. Except as otherwise permitted hereunder, no Party may assign such Party’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the PubCo.

Any attempted assignment of rights or obligations in violation of this Section 5.2 shall be null and void.

5.2.2.

Any Transferee of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 5.2.2 shall be required, at the time of and as a condition to such Transfer, to become a party to this Agreement, whereupon such Transferee will be treated as a Party (with the same rights and obligations as the Transferor unless as otherwise set forth herein) for all purposes of this Agreement, as applicable and to the extent in accordance with this Section 5.2.2.

5.2.3. All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon the Parties and their respective successors, assigns, heirs and representatives, but shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the successors, assigns, heirs and representatives of any Party only to the extent that they are permitted successors, assigns, heirs and representatives pursuant to the terms hereof; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Section 2.1, Section 3.3 and Section 4.1 shall only inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by (i) the PubCo (with respect to each other Party) and (ii) each other Party (with respect to the PubCo’s obligations to such other Party, as applicable).

- 28 -

5.2.4. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Party, other than the Parties and their respective permitted successors, assigns, heirs and representatives, any rights or remedies under this Agreement or otherwise create any third party beneficiary hereto.

5.3. Headings. Headings are for ease of reference only and shall not form a part of this Agreement.

5.4. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

5.5. Jurisdiction.

Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any Party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Parties agrees that service of process upon such Party at the address referred to in Section 5.14, together with written notice of such service to such Party, shall be deemed effective service of process upon such Party.

5.6. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT.

5.7. Entire Agreement.

In particular, upon the Effective Date, the Original RRA shall no longer be of any force or effect.

5.8. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original.

5.13. Termination. Article II shall terminate as to BC Cyan and the Sponsor when such Party no longer has the right to nominate a Director under Article II.
