As an inducement to Goldman Sachs & Co.

In addition, the undersigned agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Underwriter, it will not, during the Lock-Up Period, make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any Securities or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Securities.

The Lock-Up Period will commence on the date of this letter agreement (the “Lock-Up Agreement”) and continue until and include the date that is 30 days after the date of the final prospectus used to sell the Securities (the “Public Offering Date”) pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement.

Any Securities or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any Securities received after the date hereof (including those received upon exercise of options granted to the undersigned) will also be subject to this Lock-Up Agreement. Any Securities or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any Securities acquired by the undersigned in the open market after the date of the Underwriting Agreement will not be

(vii) the transfer, sale, tender or other disposition of the Securities (or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Securities) pursuant to a bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction made to all holders of the Securities involving a change in control of the Company (including, without limitation, entering into any lock-up, voting or similar agreement pursuant to which the undersigned may agree to transfer,

sell, tender or otherwise dispose of the Securities (or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Securities), or vote any Securities in favor of any such transaction); provided, however, that, in the event that the tender offer, merger, consolidation or other such transaction is not completed, the Securities or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any Securities owned by the undersigned shall remain subject to the restrictions contained in this Lock-Up Agreement; [or]

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company and its transfer agent and registrar are hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of shares of Securities if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Lock-Up Agreement.

The undersigned further agrees that, although the Underwriter may provide certain Regulation Best Interest and Form CRS disclosures or other related documentation to the undersigned in connection with the Public Offering, the Underwriters are not making a recommendation to the undersigned to participate in the Public Offering or sell any Securities at the price determined in the Public Offering, and nothing set forth in such disclosures or documentation is intended to suggest that the Underwriter is making such a recommendation.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Lock-Up Agreement.

This Lock-Up Agreement shall be binding on the undersigned and the successors, heirs, personal representatives and assigns of the undersigned. This Lock-Up Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of the Underwriting Agreement and shall thereafter lapse and become null and void in the event of the termination of the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof that survive termination) prior to payment for, and delivery of, the Securities to be sold on the first closing date thereunder.
