“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED UNLESS (I) SUCH SECURITIES HAVE BEEN REGISTERED FOR SALE PURSUANT TO THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, (II) SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144, OR (III) THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO IT THAT SUCH TRANSFER MAY LAWFULLY BE MADE WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.”

If required by the authorities of any state in connection with the issuance or sale of the Purchased Shares, the legend required by such state authority.

5.8. Accredited Investor. Such Investor is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 under the 1933 Act and has executed and delivered to the Company a questionnaire in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Investor Questionnaire”), which such Investor represents and warrants is true, correct and complete. Such Investor is a sophisticated institutional investor with sufficient business and financial experience to protect its own interests in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and knowledge in investing in private equity transactions to properly evaluate the risks and merits of its purchase of the Purchased Shares. Such Investor has adequate information concerning the Purchased Shares and has determined based on its own independent review and such professional advice as it deems appropriate, with no reliance on the Company, that its purchase of the Purchased Shares and participation in the transactions contemplated by the Transaction

16

Documents (i) have been duly authorized and approved by all necessary action and (ii) do not and will not violate or constitute a default under such Investor’s charter, bylaws or other constituent document or under any law, rule, regulation, agreement or other obligation by which such Investor is bound, except as would not result in a material adverse effect. Such Investor understands that the Purchased Shares are being offered and sold to it in reliance upon specific exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and state securities laws, and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and such Investor’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Investor set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Investor to acquire the Purchased Shares.

5.9. Ownership of Capital Stock. As of the date hereof, such Investor beneficially owns such shares of capital stock of the Company as set forth in the Investor Questionnaire.

5.10. No General Solicitation. Such Investor did not learn of the investment in the Purchased Shares as a result of any general or public solicitation or general advertising, or publicly disseminated advertisements or sales literature, including (a) any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, website, or similar media, or broadcast over television or radio, or (b) any seminar or meeting to which such Investor was invited by any of the foregoing means of communications.

5.11. Brokers and Finders. No Person will have, as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, any valid right, interest or claim against or upon the Company or an Investor for any commission, fee or other compensation pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into by or on behalf of such Investor.

5.12. Short Sales and Confidentiality Prior to the Date Hereof. Other than consummating the transactions contemplated hereunder, such Investor has not, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Investor, directly or indirectly executed any purchases or sales, including Short Sales, of the securities of the Company during the period commencing as of the time that such Investor was first contacted by the Company or any other Person regarding the transactions contemplated hereby and ending immediately prior to the date hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Investor that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Investor’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Investor’s assets, the representation set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Purchased Shares covered by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with respect to the identification of the availability of, or securing of, available shares to borrow in order to effect Short Sales or similar transactions in the future.

5.13. No Government Recommendation or Approval. Such Investor understands that no United States federal or state agency, or similar agency of any other country, has reviewed, approved, passed upon, or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Company or the purchase of the Purchased Shares.

5.14. No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by such Investor of the Transaction Documents and the consummation by such Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not (i) result in a violation of the organizational documents of such Investor or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which such Investor is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws) applicable to such Investor, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such conflicts, defaults, rights or violations which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of such Investor to perform its obligations hereunder.

5.15. Residency. Such Investor is a resident of the jurisdiction specified below its address on the Schedule of Investors in Exhibit A hereto.

5.16. No Legal, Tax or Investment Advice. Such Investor understands that nothing in this Agreement or any other materials presented by or on behalf of the Company to such Investor in connection with the purchase of the

17

Purchased Shares constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. Such Investor has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of the Purchased Shares. Such Investor understands that it (and not the Company) shall be responsible for such Investor’s own tax liability that may arise as a result of its acquisition of the Purchased Shares.

6. Conditions to Closing.

6.1. Conditions to the Investors’ Obligations. The obligation of each Investor to purchase Purchased Shares at the Closing is subject to the fulfillment to such Investor’s satisfaction, on or prior to the Closing Date, of the following conditions, any of which may be waived by such Investor (as to itself only):

(i)    Upon the mutual written consent of the Company and Investors that agreed to purchase a majority of the Purchased Shares to be issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement;

(ii)    By the Company if any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 shall have become incapable of fulfillment, and shall not have been waived by the Company;

(iii)    By an Investor (with respect to itself only) if any of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1 shall have become incapable of fulfillment, and shall not have been waived by the Investor; or

(iv)    By either the Company or any Investor (with respect to itself only) if the Closing has not occurred on or prior to the fifth trading day following the date of this Agreement;

provided, however, that, except in the case of clause (i) above, the party seeking to terminate its obligation to effect the Closing shall not then be in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents if such breach has resulted in the circumstances giving rise to such party’s seeking to terminate its obligation to effect the Closing.

Nothing in this Section 6.3 shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any willful or material breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents prior to the date of termination or from fraud.

7. Covenants and Agreements of the Company and the Investors.

7.1. Nasdaq Listing. The Company shall promptly secure the listing of all of the Purchased Shares on Nasdaq and shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligations under this Section 7.1. The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on Nasdaq and, in accordance, therewith, will use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of such market or exchange, as applicable.

19

7.2. Removal of Legends. In connection with any sale or disposition of the Purchased Shares by an Investor pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to any other exemption under the 1933 Act such that such Investor acquires freely tradable shares and upon compliance by the Investor with the requirements of this Agreement, if requested by the Investor, the Company shall cause the transfer agent for the Common Stock (the “Transfer Agent”) to remove any restrictive legends related to the book entry account holding such Purchased Shares and make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry Purchased Shares sold or disposed of without restrictive legends within two trading days of receipt of such request, provided that the Company has received customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company in connection therewith. Subject to receipt by the Company of customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company in connection therewith, upon the earlier of such time as the Purchased Shares (i) have been registered for resale pursuant to an effective registration statement or (ii) such time as the Purchased Shares have been sold pursuant to Rule 144, the Company shall (A) deliver to the Transfer Agent irrevocable instructions that the Transfer Agent shall make a new, unlegended entry for such book entry Purchased Shares, and (B) cause its counsel to deliver to the Transfer Agent one or more opinions to the effect that the removal of such legends in such circumstances may be effected under the 1933 Act. The Company shall be responsible for the fees of its Transfer Agent and all DTC fees associated with such issuance.

7.3. Short Sales and Confidentiality After the Date Hereof. Each Investor covenants that neither it nor any Affiliates acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any Short Sales of securities of the Company during the period from the date hereof until after all material nonpublic information received by such Investor (if any) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly announced. Each Investor covenants that until such time as material nonpublic information (if any) received in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is publicly disclosed by the Company, such Investor will maintain the confidentiality of such material nonpublic disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction, until publicly disclosed). Each Investor understands and acknowledges that the SEC currently takes the position that coverage of short sales of shares of the Common Stock “against the box” prior to effectiveness of a resale registration statement with securities included in such registration statement would be a violation of Section 5 of the 1933 Act, as set forth in Item 239.10 of the 1933 Act Rules Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations compiled by the Office of Chief Counsel, Division of Corporation Finance.

7.4 Subsequent Equity Sales. The Company shall not, and shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to ensure that no controlled Affiliate of the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the 1933 Act) that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Purchased Shares in a manner that would require the registration under the 1933 Act of the sale of the Purchased Shares to the Investors, or that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Purchased Shares for purposes of the rules and regulations of any trading market such that it would require stockholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless stockholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.

7.5. Board Appointment Rights.

(a)    The Company agrees to appoint an individual nominated by Commander Aggregator, LP (the “Appointed Director”) to the Company’s Board initially as a Class II director (which class’s current term ends at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2025), subject to the Closing and effective immediately on or after the Closing Date, by taking all necessary action by the Company or its Board to effect such appointment.

(b)    Upon the conclusion of the Appointed Director’s term(s) on the Company’s Board, the Company agrees to include the Appointed Director as a nominee in the Company’s slate of nominees for election as directors of the Company at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders for the applicable year(s), and to use its reasonable efforts to cause the election of the Appointed Director. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall use substantially the same level of effort and provide substantially the same level of support as is used and/or provided for the other director nominees of the Company with respect to the applicable meeting of stockholders. Furthermore, for the avoidance of doubt, failure of the stockholders of the Company to elect the Appointed Director for one or more additional terms shall not be deemed a breach of this Section 7.5.

(c)    If, at any time on or after the date of this Agreement, Commander Aggregator, LP, ceases to beneficially own an aggregate number of shares of Common Stock at least equal to the Minimum Original Amount, or at such time as

20

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5640 requires the termination of such rights as jointly determined by legal counsel to the Company and legal counsel to Commander Aggregator, LP, the rights conferred under this Section 7.5 shall no longer apply. During the period in which the Appointed Director serves on the Company’s Board, the Company shall provide notice to the Appointed Director and to Commander Aggregator, LP, of the imposition of any trading blackout during which members of the Board are not permitted to trade in the securities of the Company (under the Company’s insider trading compliance policy or otherwise), and the cessation of any such trading blackout; provided, however, the Company shall not be required to, nor shall the Company, disclose the reasons for the existence or cessation of such trading blackout.

8. Survival and Indemnification.

8.1. Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for the applicable statute of limitations.

8.2. Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Investor and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, trustees, members, managers, employees and agents, and their respective successors and assigns, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation reasonable and documented attorney fees and disbursements and other documented out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim or proceeding, pending or threatened and the costs of enforcement thereof) (collectively, “Losses”) to which such Person may become subject as a result of any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by or to be performed on the part of the Company under the Transaction Documents, and will reimburse any such Person for all such amounts as they are incurred by such Person; provided that no Person shall be liable for any Losses under this Section 8.2 to the extent that such Losses have been finally judicially determined not to have resulted from such Person’s fraud or willful misconduct.

8.3. Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such person unless (a) the indemnifying party has agreed in writing to pay such fees or expenses, (b) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person or (c) in the reasonable judgment of any such person, based upon written advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest exists between such person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such person); and provided, further, that the failure of any indemnified party to give written notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall materially adversely affect the indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or litigation. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for fees or expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such indemnified parties. No indemnifying party will, except with the consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that 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 of such claim or litigation. No indemnified party will, except with the consent of the indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement.

This Agreement may not be assigned by a party hereto without the prior written consent of the Company or the Investors, as applicable, provided, however, that an Investor may assign its rights and delegate its duties hereunder in whole or in part to an Affiliate or to a third party acquiring some or all of its Purchased Shares in a transaction complying with applicable securities laws without the prior written consent of the

(a)    Except as provided in Section 9.6(b), any term of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company and (a) prior to the Closing, Investors that agreed to purchase a majority of the Purchased Shares to be issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement and (b) following the Closing, the Required Investors.

For the avoidance of doubt, no other Investor is required to provide consent with respect to any amendment or waiver of Section 7.5 described in the preceding sentence.

9.7. Publicity. Except as set forth below, no public release or announcement concerning the transactions contemplated hereby shall be issued by any Investor without the prior consent of the Company, except as such release or announcement may be required by law or the applicable rules or regulations of any securities exchange or securities market, in which case the Investors shall allow the Company reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Investor may identify the Company and the value of such Investor’s security holdings in the Company in accordance with applicable investment reporting and disclosure regulations or internal policies without prior notice to or consent from the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, filings pursuant to Sections 13 and 16 of the 1934 Act). By 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the first trading day immediately following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall issue a press release or file a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing all material terms of the sale of the Purchased Shares to the Investors pursuant to this Agreement (the “Public Disclosure”), which the Investors shall have the opportunity to review. In addition, the Company will make such other filings and notices in the manner and time required by the SEC or Nasdaq. The Company shall not include the name of any Investor in the Public Disclosure or any other public announcement without the prior written consent of such Investor, except as otherwise required by law, rule, regulation or applicable SEC guidance. Notwithstanding the forgoing, this Section 9.7 shall not apply to any press release or other public statement made by the Company or the Investors which is consistent with the Public Disclosure and does not contain any information relating to the transactions contemplated hereby that has not been previously announced or made public in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. From and after the issuance of the Public Disclosure, each Investor will continue to be in possession of material nonpublic to the extent such Investor has received information from the Company with respect to certain Company data (the “Company Data”). Such Investors will continue to be in possession of material nonpublic information until the earlier of the release of the Company Data in a Current Report on Form 8-K and 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on February 1, 2023, at which time all Investors will no longer be in possession of material nonpublic information received from the Company or any of its respective officers, directors, employees or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

9.8. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof but shall be interpreted as if it were written so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereby waive any provision of law which renders any provision hereof prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.

9.9. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the signature pages, Exhibits, and the other Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereof with respect to the subject matter hereof and

thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

9.11. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to the choice of law principles thereof. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York located in New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for the purpose of any suit, action, proceeding or judgment relating to or arising out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Service of process in connection with any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on each party hereto anywhere in the world by the same methods as are specified for the giving of notices under this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding and to the laying of venue in such court. Each party hereto irrevocably waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such courts and irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO REQUEST A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT AND REPRESENTS THAT COUNSEL HAS BEEN CONSULTED SPECIFICALLY AS TO THIS WAIVER.

9.12. Independent Nature of Investors’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Investor under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Investor under any Transaction Document. The decision of each Investor to purchase Purchased Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Investor independently of any other Investor. Nothing contained herein or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Investor acknowledges that no other Investor has acted as agent for such Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Investor will be acting as agent of such Investor in connection with monitoring its investment in the Purchased Shares or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents. Each Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The Company acknowledges that each of the Investors has been provided with the same Transaction Documents for the purpose of closing a transaction with multiple Investors and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Investor.

9.13. Reliance by the Placement Agents. The parties agree and acknowledge that each Placement Agent may rely on the representations, warranties, agreements and covenants of the Company contained in this Agreement and may rely on the representations and warranties of the respective Investors contained in this Agreement as if such representations, warranties, agreements, and covenants, as applicable, were made directly to the Placement Agents. The parties further agreement that each Placement Agent may rely on or, if each Placement Agent so requests, be specifically named as an addressee of, the legal opinions to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(h) of this Agreement.

9.14 Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company acknowledges and agrees that the liability of an Investor arising directly or indirectly under any Transaction Document of any and every nature whatsoever shall be satisfied solely out of the assets of such Investor and that no trustee, officer, other investment vehicle or any other Affiliate of such Investor or any investor, shareholder or holder of shares of beneficial interest of such Investor shall be personally liable for any liabilities of such Investor.
