FORM 10 INFORMATION

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”) may be considered “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or Adagio’s or New Adagio’s future financial or operating performance. For example, any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including post-Business Combination fully diluted equity value, the anticipated enterprise value of New Adagio, expected ownership in New Adagio, projections of market opportunity and market share, the capability of Adagio’s or New Adagio’s business plans including its plans to expand, the sources and uses of cash from the Business Combination, any benefits of Adagio’s partnerships, strategies or plans as they relate to the Business Combination, anticipated benefits of the Business Combination and expectations related to the terms and timing of the Business Combination, Adagio’s expected pro forma cash, Adagio’s or New Adagio’s expected cash runway through 2025 or statements related to Adagio’s or New Adagio’s funding gap, funded business plan or use of proceeds, or other metrics or statements derived therefrom, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “future,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “propose,” “seek,” “should,” “strive,” “will,” or “would” or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which may be beyond the control of Adagio or New Adagio and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Adagio and its management and New Adagio and its management, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain. Each of Adagio and New Adagio cautions you that these statements are based on a combination of facts and factors currently known and projections of the future, which are inherently uncertain. There are risks and uncertainties described in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus relating to the Business Combination, which has been filed by ListCo with the SEC, and described in other documents filed by ARYA or New Adagio from time to time with the SEC. These filings may identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. New Adagio cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements in this Current Report will prove to be accurate.

In addition, new risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it may not be possible to identify and accurately predict the potential impacts of any such risks and uncertainties that may arise in the future. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: (1) the outcome of any potential litigation, government or regulatory proceedings that may be instituted against Adagio, New Adagio or others; (2) the ability to meet stock exchange listing standards following the consummation of the Business Combination; (3) the risk that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of Adagio or New Adagio as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Business Combination; (4) Adagio’s ability to remain compliant with the covenants of its existing debt, including any convertible or bridge financing notes; (5) New Adagio’s ability to remain compliant with the covenants of, and other obligations under, the senior secured convertible notes that were issued in connection with the closing of the Business Combination; (6) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of New Adagio to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers and retain its management and key employees; (7) costs related to the Business Combination; (8) risks associated with changes in applicable laws or regulations and Adagio’s or New Adagio’s international operations and operations in a regulated industry; (9) the possibility that Adagio or New Adagio may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (10) Adagio’s or New Adagio’s use of proceeds, post-Business Combination fully diluted equity value or fully diluted enterprise value, expected pro forma cash, expected cash runway or funding gap, estimates of expenses and profitability; and (11) the other risks and uncertainties set forth in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in other documents to be filed with the SEC by New Adagio. There may be additional risks that Adagio or New Adagio does not presently know or that Adagio or New Adagio currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and may materially differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of Adagio and New Adagio.

Nothing in this Current Report should be regarded as a representation or warranty by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved, in any specified time frame, or at all. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made in this Current Report. Subsequent events and developments may cause those views to change. Neither Adagio nor New Adagio undertakes any duty to update these forward-looking statements.

Business

Adagio is a medical device company developing and placing on the EU market innovative ablation technologies for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation (“AF”), atrial flutter (“AFL”), and ventricular tachycardia (“VT”). Adagio’s unique technology portfolio consists of Ultra-Low Temperature Cryoablation (“ULTC”) by itself, and in combination with Pulsed Field Ablation (Pulsed Field Cryoablation or “PFCA”), both developed with the vision that ability to consistently create durable, contiguous, and transmural myocardial lesions is essential for improving the effectiveness and outcomes of cardiac ablations in both atria and ventricles, and a key to unlocking sizeable market opportunities within the fast-growing segment of advanced electrophysiology (“EP”) ablation catheters. In contrast to the common practice of reutilizing once-established catheter design and energy source for multiple anatomic and physiologic targets, Adagio purpose builds its product portfolio to maximize effectiveness, enabled by the strength and flexibility provided by the foundational physical principles of our technology. Adagio has established a robust cadence of the clinical trials designed to evaluate its technology and gain regulatory approvals across the entirety of the product portfolio, with the preliminary data suggestive of outcomes, such as the combination of safety, acute and chronic effectiveness, favorable to the current standard of care, i.e. ablations performed using radiofrequency (“RF”), cryoballoon (“CRYO”) and emerging pulsed field ablation (“PFA”) catheters and energy sources, as applicable based on the arrhythmia type. Although direct comparisons in head-to-head randomized trials have not been performed, such favorable outcomes in PsAF patients in the first-in-human CRYOSURE-2 trial include 85% freedom from AF in patients after a single ULTC procedure (versus 51%-65% reported for other catheter technologies) and 98.5% of subjects in the device cryomapping cohort did not experience device-related complications. In VT patients in the first-in-human CRYOCURE-VT trial, such favorable outcomes include a 0% rate of major adverse events (versus 11.5% significant complications, including deaths, reported for VT ablation procedures using other catheter technologies), 94% acute procedural success, 60% freedom from sustained VT and 81% freedom from implantable cardioverter defibrillator shock at six months. Adagio’s iCLAS™ ULTC System and VT ULTC System (inclusive of vCLAS™ catheter) have obtained regulatory approvals in the EU for commercialization, and the approval for the PFCA System (inclusive of Cryopulse™ catheter) will be sought after completion of the PARALELL trial. In the U.S., both iCLAS and VT ULTC systems remain subject to receipt of regulatory approvals upon completion of the ongoing or planned pivotal clinical trials, while the pathway to regulatory approval of PFCA system remains under consideration. For more detailed information, see “Business of Adagio and Certain Information About Adagio—Business Summary—Adagio Product Portfolio” in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

Adagio has incurred net losses in each quarterly and annual period since inception and has not yet generated any meaningful revenue. Adagio expects to incur increasing costs as it continues to devote substantially all of its resources towards the development and anticipated further commercialization of its products, including iCLAS, vCLAS and Cryopulse. Adagio incurred net losses of $38.1 million and $23.7 million in 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, it had an accumulated deficit of $135.2 million. Please see the section entitled “Risk Factors–Risks Related to Adagio’s Business” in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus for a discussion of the risks and challenges that Adagio faces in operating its business and implementing its strategy.

As explained in the section titled “Adagio’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Overview” and “—Liquidity and Capital Resources” in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, Adagio’s management does not believe its current cash and cash equivalents are sufficient to fund operations for at least the next 12 months from the issuance date of the financial statements, which Adagio’s management believes raises substantial doubt about Adagio’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Adagio’s business is further described in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus in the section titled “Business of Adagio and Certain Information About Adagio” beginning on page 237 of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and that information is incorporated herein by reference.

New Adagio was formed as a wholly owned subsidiary of ARYA solely for the purpose of effecting the Business Combination and serves as the publicly traded parent company following the Closing. New Adagio was incorporated as a Delaware corporation on December 19, 2023. New Adagio owns no material assets other than the 100% issued and outstanding shares of stock of both Adagio and ARYA, and does not operate any business.

Risk Factors

The risk factors related to Adagio’s and New Adagio’s business and operations and the Transactions are set forth in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus in the sectiontitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 36 of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and that information is incorporated herein by reference.

Defined terms included below have the same meaning as terms defined and included elsewhere in the Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Form 8-K”) filed by Adagio Medical Holdings, Inc. with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 6, 2024 and, if not defined in the Form 8-K, the Proxy Statement.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presents the combination of the financial information of ListCo, ARYA and Adagio adjusted to give effect to the Business Combination and related transactions. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2024, assumes that the Business Combination occurred on March 31, 2024. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and for the year ended December 31, 2023, give pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had been completed on January 1, 2023, the beginning of the earliest period presented.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been derived from and should be read in conjunction with:

• the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information;

• the historical unaudited financial statements of ListCo as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and the historical audited financial statements of ListCo as of December 31, 2023 and for the period from December 19, 2023 (inception) to December 31, 2023 and the related notes, as filed in ListCo’s proxy statement/prospectus on July 11, 2024;

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been presented for illustrative purposes only and do not necessarily reflect what New Adagio’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Business Combination occurred on the dates indicated. Further, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information also may not be useful in predicting the future financial condition and results of operations of New Adagio.

Note 2. Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

The Business Combination has been accounted for as a forward-merger in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, ListCo has been treated as the ‘‘accounting acquirer’’ and Adagio as the ‘‘accounting acquiree’’ for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting is based on FASB ASC 805 and uses the fair value concepts defined in ASC 820. ASC 805 requires, among other things, that assets acquired, and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date, with limited exceptions per ASC 805-20-30-12 through 30-23. As such, under the acquisition method of accounting, ListCo’s assets and liabilities retain their carrying amounts, and the assets and liabilities of Adagio, including any intangible assets recognized in connection with the Business Combination, are recorded at their fair values, except as otherwise required, which are measured as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

ListCo has been treated as the accounting acquirer based on evaluation of the following facts and circumstances:

• Adagio is an early-stage business and there are significant risks and uncertainties surrounding Adagio proceeding to the next stage of development and commercialization.  Therefore, upon consummation of the Business Combination, there is uncertainty whether Adagio’s equity at risk will be sufficient to finance Adagio’s activities and ongoing development without additional subordinated financial support. Therefore, Adagio is considered a Variable Interest Entity (‘‘VIE’’) and the primary beneficiary of Adagio will be treated as the accounting acquirer.

• ListCo will be the primary beneficiary of Adagio. ListCo will hold 100% of the voting rights of Adagio and will control the Board of Directors of Adagio.  Therefore, ListCo will have the sole power to control the significant activities that will significantly impact Adagio’s economic performance.

• ListCo’s equity interest in Adagio will result in the right to receive benefits and the obligation to absorb the losses of Adagio that could be significant to ListCo.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not include the adjustment related to Sponsor Earn-Out Shares (as defined below). The Sponsor Earn-Out Shares, which is classified as equity, are subject to the Share Trigger Price Vesting. At any time during the period following the ARYA Merger and expiring on the 10^th anniversary of the Closing Date, if the stock price of a share of New Adagio Common Stock equals or exceeds $24.00 per share for any 20 trading days with any 30-trading day period after the Closing Date, the Sponsor Earn-Out Shares shall automatically vest. The adjustment related to Sponsor Earn-Out Shares is not reflected, as the trigger of vesting is deemed not probable of occurring after the Closing of the Business Combination.

Additionally, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not include the settlement of the Jefferies Fees including $2.6 million of Jefferies Deferred Fees and $1.3 million of Jefferies Transaction Fees. The Jefferies Fees will be paid in shares of New Adagio Common Stock, as elected by ARYA, no earlier than 60 days of Closing, at a price equal to the 10-day volume weighted average price as of the date prior to issuance pursuant to the agreement with Jefferies.

There were no existing contractual relationships between ListCo and Adagio during the periods for which the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financials statements are presented.

13

The unaudited pro forma condensed financial information does not give effect to any anticipated synergies, operating efficiencies, tax savings or cost savings that may be associated with the Business Combination and related transactions. The pro forma adjustments reflecting the consummation of the Business Combination are based on certain currently available information and certain assumptions and methodologies that management believe represent current best estimates and are subject to changes, which may be material. The unaudited condensed pro forma adjustments, which are described in the accompanying notes, may be revised as additional information becomes available and is evaluated. Therefore, it is likely that the actual adjustments will differ from the pro forma adjustments, and it is possible the difference may be material. Management believes that the assumptions and methodologies provide a reasonable basis for presenting all of the significant effects of the Business Combination based on information available to management at this time and that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

Note 3. Accounting Policies

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, management performed a comprehensive review of the two entities’ accounting policies. As a result of the review, management did not identify differences between the accounting policies of the two entities which, when conformed, could have a material impact on the financial statements of New Adagio. Based on its initial analysis, management did not identify any differences that would have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. As a result, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not assume any differences in accounting policies.

Note 4. Preliminary Allocation of Purchase Price

The total purchase consideration for the Business Combination has been allocated to the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information based on their estimated relative fair values. The allocation of the purchase consideration herein is preliminary. The final allocation of the purchase consideration for the Business Combination will be determined after the completion of a thorough analysis to determine the fair value of all assets acquired and liabilities assumed but in no event later than one year following the completion of the Business Combination.

Accordingly, the final acquisition accounting adjustments could differ materially from the preliminary amounts presented in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

Any increase or decrease in the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as compared to the information shown herein, could also change the portion of the purchase consideration allocable to goodwill and could impact the operating results of New Adagio following the Business Combination due to differences in the allocation of the purchase consideration, depreciation and amortization related to some of these assets and liabilities.

The table below represents the total estimated preliminary purchase consideration (in thousands, except share data):

Number of New Adagio Common Stock to be issued (1)		6,771,769
Number of replacement New Adagio stock options granted to Adagio option holders		7,587
Total shares		6,779,356
Multiplied by the HoldCo Share Value at the Closing	$	6.64
Total	$	45,015
Number of PIPE Warrants issued in lieu of settling Bridge Financing Notes		3,540,000
Multiplied by estimated value of PIPE Warrants	$	2.41
Estimated fair value of PIPE Warrants issued in lieu of settling Bridge Financing Notes	$	8,531
Estimated Purchase Price	$	53,546

(1) Number of New Adagio Common Stock to be issued includes the following:

(i) 2,399,162 shares converted from 14,382,918 shares held by Adagio shareholders prior to the combination based on exchange ratio. The total of 14,382,918 shares is presented in the share ownership and voting power table in Note 2.

(ii) 4,372,607 shares of New Adagio Common Stock to settle and convert the Bridge Financing Notes invested by Perceptive PIPE Investor. The 4,372,607 shares have been disclosed in Note 2(A)(7). Refer to Note 5(G) and 5(M).

For purposes of this pro forma analysis, the above estimated purchase price has been allocated based on the relative fair value of the preliminary estimate of the fair value of assets and liabilities to be acquired (in thousands):

14

	Purchase Price Allocation
ASSETS:
Cash and cash equivalents	$	1,203
Inventories, net		3,515
Prepaid expenses		159
Other current assets		159
Property and equipment, net		1,300
Intangible assets, net		26,200

The purchase price allocation for the proposed business combination is preliminary and subject to revision as additional information about the fair value of the assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed becomes available. Adagio has engaged third-party valuation companies to assist it in completing the valuation of certain assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed. However, Adagio has not completed a full, detailed valuation analysis. The valuation is based on available financial statement information as of March 31, 2024 prepared by Adagio. Except for identifiable intangible assets, the convertible notes payable and the warrant liabilities, the preliminarily estimated fair value of assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed is not materially different from the carrying value. Fair valuation methodology for convertible notes, warrant liabilities and intangible assets is discussed below. Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information includes a preliminary allocation of the purchase price based on assumptions that represent current best estimates, and are subject to changes, which may be material. Adagio will continue to refine its identification and valuation of assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed as further information becomes available.

The convertible notes are issued to Perceptive PIPE Investor in settling the 2024 Bridge Financing Notes, which is considered as an assumed liability on the purchase price allocation. The preliminary valuation of $17.0 million for the notes is based on a binomial lattice model considering the contractual terms with assumptions including (i) the New Adagio Common Stock price at $6.64 per share; (ii) a risk-free rate at 4.01%; (iii) zero dividend yield; (iv) volatility at 60% and (v) a debt discount rate at 25.8%.

The warrant liabilities pertain to Convert Warrants that are issued to Perceptive PIPE Investor in settling the 2024 Bridge Financing Notes, which is considered as an assumed liability on the purchase price allocation. The preliminary valuation of $3.0 million for the Convert Warrants is based on the Black-Scholes Merton Option model, and the assumptions including (i) the New Adagio Common Stock that the Convert Warrants are exercisable to, is at $6.64 per share; (ii) a risk-free rate at 3.96%; (iii) zero dividend yield; and (iv) volatility at 55%.

The estimate of the fair value of the convertible notes and the Convert Warrants is preliminary and based on the current available information.

Preliminary identifiable intangible assets in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information consist of developed technology and in-process research and development (IPR&D), which were valued using the cost approach. This approach considers an asset’s replacement cost (direct and indirect) adjusted, where applicable, for obsolescence to estimate the replacement cost of the asset’s current service potential (i.e., remaining useful life and cash-flow generating capacity). Obsolescence for an acquired intangible asset may include functional (technological) obsolescence and economic (external) obsolescence. The amortization related to the developed technology is reflected as unaudited pro forma adjustments to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined income statements using the straight-line method of amortization.

15

Management has determined the estimated useful life of 5 years for developed technology based on consideration of the economic benefit of the asset.

Intangible assets:	Purchase Price Allocation
Developed Technology – iCLAS	$	4,100
IPR&D – vCLAS		13,100
IPR&D – Cryopulse		9,000
Total	$	26,200

The amount that will ultimately be allocated to these identified intangible assets and the related amount of amortization, may differ materially from this preliminary allocation.

Goodwill represents the excess of the total purchase consideration over the fair value of the underlying net assets and captures the value attributable to future economic benefits arising from future technology development beyond the existing pipeline of identified IPR&D projects.

As the determination of the purchase price is subject to change upon finalization of the fair value analyses, the following table depicts the sensitivity of the purchase price and resulting goodwill to changes in net asset value. A 10% change in net asset value would cause a corresponding increase or decrease in the balance of goodwill as follows:

(in thousands)	Purchase Price Allocation		Goodwill
As presented in the pro forma combined results	$	17,025	$	36,521
10% increase in net asset value	$	18,728	$	34,818
10% decrease in net asset value	$	15,323	$	38,223

Note 5. Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

The adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2024, are as follows:

(A) Represents the redemption of 2,707,555 shares of ARYA Class A ordinary shares for aggregate redemption payments of $31.3 million using a redemption price of $11.56 per share.

(B) Represents the conversion of 468,941 Public Shares subject to non-redemption agreements by certain Other PIPE Investors into 761,229 shares of New Adagio Common Stock and 643,658 units of Base Warrants. In connection with the non-redemption agreements and respective PIPE Subscription Agreements, $5.4 million cash proceeds is released from the Trust Account as a part of the PIPE Financing (refer to Note 1).

It is preliminarily determined that the Base Warrants associated with the PIPE Financing are indexed to New Adagio Common Stock under ASC 815 – Derivatives and Hedging and are accounted for as equity, which is measured at fair value.The cash proceeds are allocated to the Base Warrants and to New Adagio Common Stock at their relative fair values, with the total adjustment to APIC for $5.4 million (refer to Note 5(X)).

The exercise price of Base Warrants is $10.00 per unit. The fair value of the Base Warrants is preliminarily estimated at $2.41 per unit, using Black-Scholes Merton Option model, based on the assumptions including (i) the value of the New Adagio Common Stock (for which the Base Warrants are exercisable) is $6.64 per share;  (ii) a risk-free rate at 3.93%; (iii) zero dividend yield; (iv) the common stock volatility at 84.0% and a volatility haircut of 10%.

Refer to Note 5(W) for the reversal of the contingent equity investment recorded in ARYA’s historical financial statements related to the New Adagio Common Stock and PIPE Warrants in connection with the open market purchase and the non-redemption obligation.

(C) Represents the reclassification of the remaining $0.4 million of cash and investments held in the Trust Account to cash and cash equivalents.

16

(D) Represents the receipt of additional principal amount of $0.4 million before closing under the ARYA Convertible Promissory Notes.

(E) Represents the settlement of ARYA’s accrued transaction expenses of $8.1 million, incurred by ARYA in connection with the Business Combination, such as advisory, banking, printing, legal, accounting fees and other professional fees that are a direct and incremental part of the transaction. Such transaction costs are expensed as incurred.

(F) Represents the settlement of Adagio’s accrued transaction expenses of $7.9 million, incurred by Adagio in connection with the Business Combination, such as advisory, banking, printing, legal, accounting fees and other professional fees that are a direct and incremental part of the transaction. Such transaction costs are expensed as incurred.

(G) Represents the receipt of cash proceeds of $27.9 million in PIPE Financing in exchange of 3,287,018 shares of New Adagio Common Stock, 3,345,069 Base Warrants and 670,000 Pre-Funded Warrants. The $27.9 million cash proceeds including the additional cash investment from Perceptive PIPE Investor of $15.9 million, and the commitments of $12.0 million from certain Other PIPE Investors (refer to Note 1).

It is preliminarily determined that the Base Warrants associated with the PIPE Financing are indexed to New Adagio Common Stock under ASC 815 - Derivatives and Hedging and are accounted for as equity, which is measured at fair value on the date of issuance and not subsequently remeasured.

The exercise price of Base Warrants is $10.00 per unit. The fair value of the Base Warrants is preliminarily estimated at $2.41 per unit, using Black-Scholes Merton Option model, based on the assumptions including (i) the value of the New Adagio Common Stock (for which the Base Warrants are exercisable) is $6.64 per share; (ii) a risk-free rate at 3.93%; (iii) zero dividend yield; (iv) the common stock volatility at 84.0% and a volatility haircut of 10%.

As set forth in the agreement of the Pre-Funded Warrants associated with the PIPE Financing, the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis or on a gross basis for one share of New Adagio Common Stock at $0.01 per share, subject to adjustments as set forth in the agreement. New Adagio may be required to cash settle the Pre-Funded Warrants when it fails to timely deliver shares to the holder who exercises the Pre-Funded Warrants or upon the occurrence of a fundamental transaction. It is determined that the Pre-Funded Warrants associated with the PIPE Financing do not meet the equity classification requirements under ASC 815 - Derivatives and Hedging as the Pre-Funded Warrants may require cash settlement outside of New Adagio’s control upon a failure of timely delivery of shares or a fundamental transaction, and therefore the Pre-Funded Warrants are accounted for as derivative liabilities, and measured at fair value both initially and subsequently with changes in fair value recognized through earnings.

The exercise price of Pre-Funded Warrants is $0.01 per unit. The fair value of the Pre-Funded Warrants is preliminarily estimated at $6.63 per unit, based on the value of the New Adagio Common Stock (for which the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable) is $6.64 per share.

The cash proceeds are first allocated to Pre-Funded Warrants at their fair value of $4.4 million, and the remaining cash proceeds are allocated to the Base Warrants and New Adagio Common Stock at their relative fair values, with the total adjustment to APIC for $23.4 million (refer to Note 5(X)).

(H) Represents the receipt and the conversion of the May 2024 Notes, the June 2024 Notes and the July 2024 Notes with a principal amount of $6.5 million and accrued but not paid interest of $66.5 thousand issued to the Perceptive PIPE Investor in exchange of 931,096 shares of New Adagio Common Stock and 780,000 Base Warrants, as a part of the PIPE Financing (refer to Note 1). The principal of $3.0 million, $2.5 million and $1 million was received by Adagio in May 2024, June 2024 and July 2024 respectively, prior to the Closing. At the Closing, the May 2024 Notes, the June 2024 Notes and the July 2024 Notes are settled with 931,096 shares of New Adagio Common Stock at $6.64 per share and 780,000 Base Warrants at $2.41 per unit as a part of the purchase consideration (refer to Note 4).

17

It is preliminarily determined that the Base Warrants associated with the PIPE Financing are indexed to New Adagio Common Stock under ASC 815 - Derivatives and Hedging and are accounted for as equity, which is measured at fair value.

The exercise price of Base Warrants is $10.00 per unit. The fair value of the Base Warrants is preliminarily estimated at $2.41 per unit, using Black-Scholes Merton Option model, based on the assumptions including (i) the value of the New Adagio Common Stock (for which the Base Warrants are exercisable) is $6.64 per share; (ii) a risk-free rate at 3.93%; (iii) zero dividend yield; (iv) the common stock volatility at 84.0% and a volatility haircut of 10%.

(I) Represents the settlement of the existing SVB Term Loan of Adagio with a net balance of $1.4 million, including $1.4 million of principal payment due within 12 months with an unamortized debt discount of $14.6 thousand. In addition, the accrued interest payable of $12.3 thousand is settled prior to the Closing.

(J) Represents (i) the conversion of the 2024 Bridge Financing Note with a balance of $7.4 million as of March 31, 2024 into $7.0 million of New Adagio Convertible Notes and 525,000 Convert Warrants; (ii) the issuance of an additional $5.0 million of New Adagio Convertible Notes and 375,000 Convert Warrants to certain Other PIPE Investor; (iii) the issuance of an additional $0.5 million of New Adagio Convertible Notes and 37,500 Convert Warrants to certain Convert Investor; and (iv) the issuance of $7.5 million principal of New Adagio Convertible Notes and 562,500 Convert Warrant to the Contingent Investor at the Closing in connection with the New Adagio Convertible Notes. The fair value of the New Adagio Convertible Notes and the 1,500,000 Convert Warrants is $17.0 million and $3.0 million respectively.

As set forth in the agreement of the New Adagio Convertible Notes, the Convert Warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis or on a gross basis for one share of New Adagio Common Stock at $24.00 per share, subject to adjustments as set forth in the agreement. New Adagio may be required to cash settle the Convert Warrants when it fails to timely deliver shares to the holder who exercises the Convert Warrants or upon the occurrence of a fundamental transaction. It is determined that the Convert Warrants associated with the New Adagio Convertible Notes do not meet the equity classification requirements under ASC 815 - Derivatives and Hedging as the Covert Warrants may require cash settlement outside of New Adagio’s control upon a failure of timely delivery of shares or a fundamental transaction, and therefore the Convert Warrants are accounted for as derivative liabilities, and measured at fair value both initially and subsequently with changes in fair value recognized through earnings.

Further, as permitted under ASC 825 - Financial Instruments, it is preliminary determined to elect the fair value option to account for the New Adagio Convertible Notes.

The valuation of the New Adagio Convertible Notes is based on a binomial lattice model considering the contractual terms with assumptions including (i) the New Adagio Common Stock price at $6.64 per share; (ii) a risk-free rate at 4.01%; (iii) zero dividend yield; (iv) volatility at 60% and (v) a discount rate at 25.8%.

The estimate of the fair value of the New Adagio Convertible Notes and the Convert Warrants is preliminary and based on the current available information. Adagio has engaged third party specialists to assist it in completing the calculation of value of the New Adagio Convertible Notes and the Convert Warrants. As this full valuation analysis is undergoing and not yet completed, the estimated fair values will be updated based upon further available information, as well as market conditions at the time of the Closing.

(K) Represents an adjustment to intangible assets, net to reflect the acquired identifiable intangible assets consisting of developed technology and IPR&D at the estimated fair value of $26.2 million, which as noted above is and subject to change once the proposed business combination is completed. The fair value of the developed technology and IPR&D is estimated based on cost approach. It is estimated a useful life of 5 years for developed technology based on consideration of the economic benefit of the asset. See Note 4 for additional details.

18

(L) Represents an adjustment to reflect estimated goodwill of $36.5 million recognized from the proposed business combination in accordance with ASC 805-30-30 based on the preliminary purchase price allocation in Note 4. Goodwill represents the excess of the total purchase consideration over the fair value of the underlying net assets and captures the value attributable to future economic benefits arising from future technology development beyond the existing pipeline of identified IPR&D projects.

(M) Reflects the direct and incremental transaction costs incurred prior to or concurrent with the Business Combination of $8.5 million. Transaction costs include legal, accounting, financial advisory and other professional fees related to the Business Combination.

(N) Represents the settlement of the outstanding $23.0 million principal in Bridge Financing Notes excluding the May 2024 Notes, the June 2024 Notes and the July 2024 Notes, issued to the Perceptive PIPE Investor, which has an estimated fair value of $24.6 million, along with the settlement of the accrued but not paid interest of $1.1 million as of March 31, 2024, in exchange of 3,441,511 shares of New Adagio Common Stock and 2,760,000 Base Warrants in connection with the PIPE Financing (refer to Note 1). The 3,441,511 shares of Adagio Common Stock at $6.64 per share and the 2,760,000 Base Warrants at $2.41 per unit issued to settle the convertible promissory notes is considered as a part of the purchase consideration (refer to Note 4).

It is preliminarily determined that the Base Warrants associated with the PIPE Financing are indexed to New Adagio Common Stock under ASC 815 - Derivatives and Hedging and are accounted for as equity, which is measured at fair value.

The exercise price of Base Warrants is $10.00 per unit. The fair value of the Base Warrants is preliminarily estimated at $2.41 per unit, using Black-Scholes Merton Option model, based on the assumptions including (i) the value of the New Adagio Common Stock (for which the Base Warrants are exercisable) is $6.64 per share; (ii) a risk-free rate at 3.93%; (iii) zero dividend yield; (iv) the common stock volatility at 84.0% and a volatility haircut of 10%.

(O) Represents the conversion of $14.3 million of Adagio Convertible Notes and $1.1 million of related accrued unpaid interest to New Adagio Common Stock and additional paid-in capital.

(P) Represents the termination of Adagio Warrants prior to the Closing from liability to equity in conjunction with the Business Combination, as the fair market value of Adagio Common Stock is lower than the warrant exercise price prior to the Closing.

(Q) Represents the conversion of $3.6 million of ARYA Convertible Promissory Notes to New Adagio Common Stock and additional paid-in capital, after the assumption that the maximum principal amount is drawn before closing under the ARYA Convertible Promissory Notes and no Additional ARYA Convertible Promissory Notes are issued to the Sponsor. See Note 5(C) for the additional principal drawn prior to closing.

(R) Reflects the estimated gross deferred tax asset of $34.9 million netting with valuation allowance of $29.4 million, and then with gross deferred tax liability of $8.3 million resulting in net deferred tax liability position of $2.8 million. The basis difference primarily results Adagio’s net operating losses and from the Business Combination where New Adagio receives intangible assets for financial accounting purposes. Tax-related adjustments are based upon an estimated state tax rate of 8.8% and an estimated federal tax rate of 21.0%. The effective tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different than what is presented in the pro forma financial information depending on post-acquisition activities, the geographical mix of taxable income, and changes in tax laws and regulations.

(S) Represents the conversion of 123,520 shares of Class A ordinary shares subject to redemption, with a par value of $0.0001, into 123,520 shares of the New Adagio Common Stock, resulting in an increase in New Adagio Common Stock with a par value of $0.0001 and an increase of additional paid-in capital.

19

(T) Represents the conversion of all outstanding Adagio Preferred Stock to New Adagio Common Stock and additional paid-in capital upon the Closing of the Business Combination.

Prior to the Closing, certain Other PIPE Investor entered into an agreement with Adagio to exchange 207,902 shares of previously invested Series E Preferred Stock for pre-funded warrants to purchase 207,902 shares of Series E Preferred Stock. Further, per the Business Combination Agreement, such Pre-Funded Warrants for Series E Preferred Shares shall be automatically cancelled and extinguished and converted into the right to receive a number of New Adagio Common Shares equal to the exchange ratio.

Accordingly, this adjustment reflects the conversion of all Adagio Preferred Stock (including Series E Preferred Stock subject to the exchange agreement specified above), to New Adagio Common Stock and additional paid-in-capital upon the Closing of the Business Combination.

The value of the contingent equity investment was estimated and recorded assuming a 75% probability of the Business Combination being closed in ARYA’s historical financial statement. Such contingent equity investment is eliminated in the proforma financial information as the unaudited proforma condensed combined balance sheet assumes the Business Combination occurred on March 31, 2024. Accordingly, the New Adagio Common Stock and PIPE Warrants in connection with the open market purchase and the non-redemption obligation is included in Note 5(A).

The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and for the year ended December 31, 2023, are as follows:

(AA) Reflects ARYA’s estimated transactions costs of $4.0 million as if incurred on January 1, 2023, the date the Business Combination occurred for the purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations. The amount presented is comprised of transaction costs that were not yet recognized in the historical statement of operations as part of the Business Combination. These costs are non-recurring.

(BB) Adjustment to reflect amortization expense, on a straight-line basis, based on the preliminary fair value of the intangible assets and the estimated useful lives. See below table for the calculation (in thousands):

Note 6. Net Loss per Share

Represents the net loss per share calculated using the historical weighted average shares outstanding, and the issuance of additional shares in connection with the Business Combination, assuming the shares were outstanding since January 1, 2023. As the Business Combination is being reflected as if it had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the shares issuable relating to the Business Combination have been outstanding for the entirety of the periods presented. When assuming the maximum redemption scenario described above, this calculation is adjusted to eliminate such shares for the entirety of the periods presented.

The following has been prepared to present the net loss per share with respect to the redemptions of Class A Common Stock by ARYA Stockholders at the time of the Business Combination for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and for the year ended December 31, 2023:

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Reference is made to the disclosure contained in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus in the sections titled “Adagio’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” beginning on page 267 of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, “ARYA’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” beginning on page 227 of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, and “ListCo’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” beginning on page 285 of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, each of which is incorporated herein by reference.

Management’s discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operation of Adagio as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 and for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 is set forth below.

The following discussion and analysis provides information that Adagio’s management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of its results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read together with Adagio’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (unaudited), and its consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 (audited), and together with the related notes thereto, and the section entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Financial Information” in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus, that are included elsewhere or incorporated by reference in this Current Report on Form 8-K. This discussion may contain forward-looking statements based upon current beliefs, plans, and expectations that involve numerous risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including, but not limited to, those described under the heading “Risk Factors” beginning on page 36 of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus or in other parts of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

Overview

We are a developmental stage medical device company focused on the development and commercialization of ablation technologies for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation (“AF”), atrial flutter (“AFL”), and ventricular tachycardia (“VT”). Our unique portfolio is based on Ultra-Low Temperature Cryoablation (“ULTC”) and Pulsed-Field Cryoablation (“PFCA”). Our technology is based on the hypothesis that the ability to consistently create durable, contiguous, transmural lesions is a foundation for improving the effectiveness and outcomes of cardiac ablations in both atria and ventricles.

Adagio’s product portfolio consists of three product families: iCLAS™ atrial ULTC catheter and accessories, vCLAS™ ventricular ULTC catheter, and Cryopulse™ atrial PFCA catheter and accessories. All of these catheters share the same ULTC cryoablation console. A standalone Pulsed-Field Ablation (“PFA”) console connected to a cryoablation console for PFCA treatment synchronization is used in conjunction with Cryopulse catheter, subject to future integration for maximum operational flexibility and minimum footprint. We received CE Marking in Europe for our iCLAS™ Cryoablation System in May 2020 and have commercially launched in the EU.

We are continually working towards reaching the next milestone in the development process for our portfolio of technologies. We received CE Marking in Europe for our VT Cryoablation System in March 2024 and have commercially launched in the EU. Key milestones include data readouts, clinical trials, and regulatory and commercialization developments in both the U.S. and European markets. The data readouts for each device are key valuation-driving milestones because investors use this data to understand the efficacy of the procedures. It is expected that favorable readouts will drive additional investment and financing for us at market terms.

We have not launched commercially in the U.S. but are working towards obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals to do so. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception in 2011. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had an accumulated deficit of $143.2 million and $135.2 million, respectively. Our net losses were $8.0 million and $9.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general and administrative costs associated with our operations. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had cash of $4.1 million and $1.4 million, respectively.

Our accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and liabilities in the normal course of business. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset amounts or the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. The recurring losses, working capital deficiency, the need for capital to fund our operations, including clinical trial and regulatory approval expenses, the amount of cash reserve and the dependency of closing the Business Combination are factors that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve-month period from the date the financial statements included herein were made available. See Note 1-Organization and Description of Business in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 for the additional information on our assessment.

Our need for additional capital will depend in part on the scope and costs of our development activities. To date, we have not generated any significant revenue from the sale of commercialized products. Our ability to generate product revenue will depend on the successful development and eventual commercialization of our products in the United States and Europe. Until such time, if ever, we expect to finance our operations through the sale of equity or debt, borrowings under credit facilities, or through potential collaborations, other strategic transactions or government and other grants. Adequate capital may not be available to us when needed or on acceptable terms. If we are unable to raise capital, we could be forced to delay, reduce, suspend or cease our research and development programs or any future commercialization efforts, which would have a negative impact on our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition. See the section of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus titled “Risk Factors” for additional information.

Business Combination

The disclosure set forth in the “Introductory Note” above with respect to the completion of the Business Combination, the PIPE Financing and the Convertible Security Financing is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.01.

In conjunction with the consummation of the Business Combination with ARYA, we raised financing valued at approximately $84.2 million, which consisted of funds held in ARYA’s trust account, a concurrent equity and warrant private placement (including $29.5 million of bridge financing used by us prior to closing and funds from ARYA’s trust account not redeemed), and a concurrent convertible security financing (including $7 million of bridge financing used by us prior to closing), offset by approximately $10.0 million of transaction costs relating to the closing of the Business Combination.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic

The markets we operate in could see continued impacts from COVID-19 for the foreseeable future, and the emergence of new variants of COVID-19 creates significant uncertainty as to how long COVID-19 will continue to impact our business. The magnitude of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our productivity, results of operations and financial position and its disruption to our business and our clinical programs and timelines will depend, in part, on the length and severity of outbreaks, restrictions and other measures designed to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and on our ability to conduct business in the ordinary course.

Key Factors Affecting Our Performance

We compete primarily on the basis that our products are designed to enable more physicians to treat more patients more efficiently and effectively. Our continued success depends on our ability to:

• continue to develop innovative, proprietary products that address significant clinical needs in a manner that is safe and effective for patients and easy-to-use for physicians;

• obtain and maintain regulatory clearances or approvals;

• demonstrate safety and effectiveness in our sponsored and third-party clinical trials;

• expand its sales force across key markets to increase physician awareness;

• obtain and maintain coverage and adequate reimbursement for procedures using its products;

• attract and retain skilled research, development, sales and clinical personnel;

• cost-effectively manufacture, market and sell its products; and

• obtain, maintain, enforce and defend our intellectual property rights and operate its business without infringing, misappropriating or otherwise violating the intellectual property rights of others.

Innovation

Our business strategy relies significantly on innovation to develop and introduce new products and to differentiate our products from our competitors. We expect our research and development expenditures to increase as we make additional investments to support our growth strategies. We plan to increase our research and development expenditures with internal initiatives, as well as potentially licensing or acquiring technology from third parties. We also expect expenditures associated with our manufacturing organization to grow over time as production volume increases and we bring new products to market. Our internal and external investments will be focused on initiatives that we believe will offer the greatest opportunity for growth and profitability. With a significant investment in research and development, a strong focus on innovation and a well-managed innovation process, we believe we can continue to innovate and grow.

Regulatory

Our commercial success will depend upon a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control, including the receipt of regulatory clearances, approvals, or authorizations for existing or new product offerings by us, or product enhancements. We must complete additional clinical testing before we can seek regulatory approval in the United States and begin commercialization of our products. After our products are cleared, approved, or authorized, numerous and pervasive regulatory requirements continue to apply. As such, our ability to navigate, obtain and maintain the required regulatory clearances, approvals, or authorizations, as well as comply with other regulatory requirements, for our products will in part drive our results of operations and impact our business.

Investments in Our Growth

In order to generate future growth, we plan to continue to expand and leverage our sales and marketing infrastructure to increase our customer base and grow our business. Identifying and recruiting qualified sales and marketing personnel and training them on our products, applicable federal and state laws and regulations, and on our internal policies and procedures requires significant time, expense and attention. It often takes several months or more before a sales representative is fully trained and productive. Our ability to increase our customer base and achieve broader market acceptance of our products will also depend to a significant extent on our ability to expand our marketing efforts as our plans to dedicate significant resources to its marketing programs.

Competition

Our industry is intensely competitive, subject to rapid change and significantly affected by new product introductions and other market activities of industry participants. Our most significant competitors are large, well-capitalized companies. We must continue to successfully compete considering our competitors’ existing and future products and related pricing and their resources to successfully market to the physicians who could use our products. Publications of clinical results by us, our competitors and other third parties can also have a significant influence on whether, and the degree to which, we are able to gain market share and increase utilization of our products.

Reimbursement and Insurance Coverage

In both U.S. and non-U.S. markets, our ability to successfully commercialize and achieve market acceptance of our products depends, in significant part, on the availability of adequate financial coverage and reimbursement from third-party payors, including governmental payors (such as the Medicare and Medicaid programs in the United States), managed care organizations and private health insurers. Third-party payors decide which treatments they will cover and establish reimbursement rates for those treatments. Our products are purchased by hospitals and other providers who will then seek reimbursement from third-party payors for the procedures performed using our products. Reimbursement systems in international markets vary significantly by country and by region within some countries, and reimbursement approvals must be obtained on a country-by-country basis. In certain international markets, a product must be approved for reimbursement before it can be approved for sale in that country. Furthermore, many international markets have government-managed healthcare systems that control reimbursement for new devices and procedures. In most markets there are private insurance systems as well as government-managed systems.

Key Components of Results of Operations

Revenues

We generate product revenue primarily from the sale of the catheters, stylets and warming balloons (“Consumables”) used with our consoles. We sell our products directly to hospitals and medical centers. To a lesser extent, we also generate lease revenue from the implied rental of consoles loaned to customers at no charge. We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, when we transfer promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Please refer to Note 2-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our consolidated financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 for additional details on our revenue recognition policy. Our revenue is subject to fluctuation due to the foreign currency in which our products are sold.

Costs and Operating Expenses

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue includes raw materials, direct labor, manufacturing overhead, shipping and receiving costs and other less significant indirect costs related to the production of our products. Cost of revenue also includes the depreciation expense of consoles loaned to the customers.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses are expensed when incurred and are related to the development of our product candidates which includes pre-clinical, clinical, quality assurance, and research and development operational activities. These costs consist of:

• salaries, benefits, and other employee-related costs, including stock-based compensation expense for personnel engaged in research and development functions;

• activities associated with clinical trials performed by third parties;

• professional fees;

• equipment, materials, and costs related to product manufacturing; and

• other operational costs including rent and facilities costs, and depreciation.

Adagio does not track research and development expenses by project or product, as Adagio is at an earlier stage in its pre-clinical and clinical development. Management believes that the breakdown of research and development expenses by project or product would be arbitrary and would not provide a meaningful assessment.

Management expects the research and development expenses to increase, as Adagio will incur incremental expenses associated with the product candidates that are currently under development and in pre-clinical and clinical trials. Product candidates in later stages of clinical development generally have higher development costs, primarily due to the increased size and duration of later-stage clinical trials.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, and employee-related costs (including stock-based compensation) for personnel in executive, finance and other administrative functions, allocated rent and facilities costs, legal fees relating to intellectual property and corporate matters, professional fees for accounting and consulting services, marketing costs and insurance costs, and transaction costs in connection with the Business Combination. We expense all selling, general and administrative costs as incurred.

Convertible notes fair value adjustment

We recorded the October 2022 Convertible Notes (as defined below), the April 2023 Notes, the November 2023 Notes, and the 2024 Bridge Financing Note at fair value at issuance and subsequently remeasure them to fair value at each reporting period. Changes in fair value are recognized as convertible notes fair value adjustment in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Warrant liabilities fair value adjustment

We accounted for certain common stock warrants outstanding as warrant liabilities at fair value, determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The liability is subject to re-measurement at each reporting period and any change in fair value is recognized warrant liabilities fair value adjustment in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Interest expense

Interest expense is primarily incurred from our outstanding debt obligations, including those under the October 2022 Convertible Notes, the April 2023 Notes, the November 2023 Notes, the 2024 Bridge Financing Note, and the SVB Term Loan.

Interest Income

Interest income consists primarily of interest earned on our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities.

Other (expense) income, net

Other (expense) income, net primarily consists of foreign currency unrealized and realized gain / loss, and other income related to research and development (“R&D”) tax credit.

Revenue

Our revenue was $26.0 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and $60.0 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease of $34.0 thousand, or 57%, is due to the decrease of consumable sales. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, revenue was generated only in European markets.

Costs of revenue and operating expenses

Cost of revenue

Cost of revenue increased to $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, from $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase of $0.2 million, or 70%, primarily resulted from the increase in the depreciation of consoles.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses decreased to $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The $1.3 million decrease, or 28%, was primarily related to a $0.3 million decrease of manufacturing absorption costs, $0.2 million decrease in product manufacturing, $0.2 million decrease in animal testing cost, $0.1 million decrease in travel costs related to clinical studies, $0.2 million decrease in payroll, and $0.1 million decrease in costs related to prototypes and other research and development costs. The decrease in research and development expenses results from Adagio receiving CE Marking on VT Cryoablation in March 2024.

The following is a breakdown of our research and development costs by type of expense:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(In thousands)	2024		2023
Clinical trial costs	$	1,373	$	1,616
Operational costs		796		1,497
Quality assurance costs		666		685
Pre-clinical trial costs and other research and development costs		634		1,000
Total research and development expenses	$	3,469	$	4,798

Our clinical trial expenses relate to trials for our iCLAS atrial ULTC catheter and system (CRYOCURE-2), iCLAS atrial ULTC catheter and system (iCLAS for PsAF), vCLAS ventricular ULTC catheter (CRYOCURE-VT), vCLAS ventricular ULTC catheter (FULCRUM-VT), and PFCA catheter. Clinical trial costs include the expenses spent on clinical trials studies and other related expenses. Operational costs includes the expenses spent on product manufacturing. Quality assurance includes regulatory fees and third-party service fees. Pre-clinical trial costs and other research and development costs includes the expenses resulting from professional fees, prototypes, and animal testing.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $4.8 million from $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $3.2 million, or 202%, is primarily due to an increase of $2.5 million in professional fees which include legal and accounting fees related to the transaction costs associated with the Business Combination and an increase in payroll and personnel expense of $0.7 million.

Convertible notes fair value adjustment

The increase in the convertible notes fair value adjustment of $4.0 million is due to the fair value remeasurement of the convertible notes payables as of March 31, 2024 compared to March 31, 2023.

Warrant liabilities fair value adjustment

The decrease in the warrant liabilities fair value adjustment of $47.0 thousand is due to the fair value remeasurement of the warrant liabilities as of March 31, 2024 compared to March 31, 2023.

Interest expense

Interest expense increased to $0.8 million from $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase of $0.5 million was interest incurred from the convertible promissory notes issued in October 2022, April 2023, November 2023, and February 2024, and the SVB term loan issued in February 2023.

Interest income

Interest income remained steady at $1.0 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Other (expense) income, net

Other expense was $43.0 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to other income of $4.0 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2023. This decrease in other income of $47.0 thousand was primarily attributable to the net increase in foreign exchange currency loss by $46.0 thousand.

Revenue

Our revenue was $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 and $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase of $0.1 million, or 59% is due to the increase of consumable sales. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, revenue was generated only in European markets.

Costs of revenue and operating expenses

Cost of revenue

Cost of revenue increased to $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, from $0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase of $0.4 million, or 49%, primarily resulted from the increase of obsolescence and scrap.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses decreased to $15.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 from $17.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The $2.5 million decrease, or 14%, was primarily related to a $3.0 million decrease of raw materials used in operational costs as a part of research and development activities, $1.3 million decrease in product manufacturing, offset by a $1.0 million increase in clinical trial expenses, $0.6 million increase in payroll, and a $0.2 million increase in animal testing expense. The decrease in product manufacturing, and the increases in pre-clinical trial expense and clinical trial expense are due to that Adagio focused more on pre-clinical and clinical studies in order to obtain regulatory approval in both the European and United States markets.

The following is a breakdown of our research and development costs by type of expense:

	Year Ended December 31,
(In thousands)	2023		2022
Clinical trial costs	$	5,504	$	4,562
Pre-clinical trial costs		4,147		3,825
Quality assurance costs		2,957		2,390
Pre-clinical trial costs and other research and development costs		2,791		7,078
Total research and development expenses	$	15,399	$	17,855

Our clinical trial expenses relate to trials for our iCLAS atrial ULTC catheter and system (CRYOCURE-2), iCLAS atrial ULTC catheter and system (iCLAS for PsAF), vCLAS ventricular ULTC catheter (CRYOCURE-VT), vCLAS ventricular ULTC catheter (FULCRUM-VT), and PFCA catheter. Clinical trial costs includes the expenses spent on clinical trials studies and other related expenses. Quality assurance includes regulatory fees and third-party service fees. Research and development operational costs includes the expenses spent on product manufacturing. Pre-clinical trial costs and other research and development costs includes the expenses resulting from professional fees, prototypes, and animal testing.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $11.5 million from $5.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $6.2 million, or 115%, is primarily due to an increase of $4.7 million in professional fees which include legal and accounting fees related to the transaction costs associated with the Business Combination, an increase in payroll and personnel expense of $1.0 million, and an increase in building and maintenance costs of $0.5 million.

Convertible notes fair value adjustment

Convertible notes fair value adjustment changed to $8.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 from nil million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The $8.5 million was related to the increase of fair value by $4.0 million, $0.4 million and $4.1 million on the October 2022 Convertible Notes, the April 2023 Notes and the November 2023 Notes, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2022, we did not recognize any change in fair value related to the October 2022 Convertible Notes as there were not significant changes to the business, financing scenarios, or market conditions since the date of issuance.

Warrant liabilities fair value adjustment

Warrant liabilities fair value adjustment changed to $42.0 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2023 from nil million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The $42.0 thousand was related to the increase of fair value on the common stock warrant liabilities during the year ended December 31, 2023.

Interest expense

Interest expense increased to $1.7 million from $0.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase of $1.5 million was interest incurred from the convertible promissory notes issued in October 2022, April 2023, and November 2023, and the SVB Term Loan issued in February 2023.

Interest income

Interest income decreased to $3.0 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2023 from $39.0 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease in interest income of $36.0 thousand or 92% was driven by the decrease of cash balances in an asset management account.

Other (expense) income, net

Other expense was $20.0 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to other income of $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. This decrease in other income of $0.3 million was primarily attributable to an increase in other expense of $0.5 million, related to the R&D tax credit received in 2022 for which Adagio no longer qualifies in 2023, offset by a favorable decrease of $0.2 million in foreign exchange currency unrealized loss.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

To date, we have financed our operations primarily through the sale of equity securities, convertible promissory notes and SVB Term Loan. Since inception we have incurred operating losses and negative cash flows and anticipate continuing to do so for at least the next several years.

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had cash of $4.1 million and $1.4 million, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, net losses were $8.0 million and $9.3 million, respectively, and net cash used in operating activities was $6.7 million and $6.4 million, respectively.

We do not believe our current cash and cash equivalents are sufficient to fund operations for at least the next 12 months from the issuance date of the financial statements. We believe that this raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We intend to mitigate the conditions and events that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern entity by (i) pursuing a public offering of its common stock or in a business combination with a special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”) to obtain additional capital and align our long-term operating strategy (refer to Note 1-Organization and Description of Business in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 for additional details), (ii) negotiate other cash equity or debt financing in the short-term, and (iii) continue to pursue the necessary regulatory approvals to launch commercially in the U.S. market. However, there can be no assurances that the current plans will generate any liquidity to us or be available on terms acceptable to us, or if at all.

If we are unable to maintain sufficient financial resources, its business, financial condition, and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected. We may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate its product discovery and development activities or future commercialization efforts. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of our assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

Future Funding Requirements

In the future, we may need to raise additional funds through the issuance of debt and/or equity securities or otherwise. Until such time, if ever, that we can generate revenue sufficient to achieve profitability, we expect to finance our operations through equity or debt financings, which may not be available to us on the timing needed or on terms that we deem to be favorable. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interest of our stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of common stockholders. Debt financing and preferred equity financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making acquisitions or capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we are unable to maintain sufficient financial resources, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected. We may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product discovery and development activities or future commercialization efforts.

Our future liquidity and capital funding requirements will depend on numerous factors, including:

• our revenue growth;

• our research and development efforts;

• our sales and marketing activities;

• our ability to raise additional funds to finance our operations;

• the outcome, costs and timing of any clinical trial results for our current or future products;

• the emergence and effect of competing or complementary products;

• the availability and amount of reimbursement for procedures using our products;

• our ability to maintain, expand and defend the scope of our intellectual property portfolio, including the amount and timing of any payments we may be required to make, or that we may receive, in connection with the licensing, filing, prosecution, defense and enforcement of any patents or other intellectual property rights;

• our ability to retain our current employees and the need and ability to hire additional management and sales, scientific and medical personnel;

• the terms and timing of any collaborative, licensing or other arrangements that we have or may establish;

• debt service requirements;

• the extent to which we acquire or invest in businesses, products or technologies;

Our primary uses of capital are, and we expect will continue to be, investment in our commercial organization and related expenses, clinical research and development services, and related supplies, legal and other regulatory expenses, general administrative costs and working capital.

See the section of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus titled “Risk Factors” for additional risks associated with our substantial capital requirements.

Debt Obligations

October 2022 Convertible Notes

In October 2022, we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement with investors for the issuance and sale of convertible promissory notes (the “October 2022 Convertible Notes”) with an aggregate principal amount of $9.5 million at an interest rate of eight percent (8.0%) per year. The October 2022 Convertible Notes had an original maturity date of October 27, 2023, which was subsequently extended to the latest of (i) January 5, 2024, (ii) termination of agreements between Adagio and ARYA in connection with a non-binding summary of certain proposed terms and conditions of the Business Combination, or (iii) the termination or lapse of the exclusivity period as defined in the non-binding term sheet as mentioned above.

The October 2022 Convertible Notes were also amended to be subordinate to the April 2023 Notes (as described below). (refer to Note 7-Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 for additional details).

In November 2023 and February 2024, the October 2022 Convertible Notes were further amended to also subordinate the November 2023 Notes and the 2024 Bridge Financing Note. Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, all principal and accrued interest in respect of the October 2022 Convertible Notes were converted into a number of shares of Adagio Common Stock that, when multiplied by the exchange ratio applicable to the Adagio Common Stock in the Business Combination, entitled the holder of this note to receive a number of shares of New Adagio Common Stock equal to the then outstanding principal amount and any accrued and unpaid interest under this note, divided by 75% of the effective price of each share of common stock sold in the PIPE Financing.

April 2023 Notes

In April 2023, we issued a $5.0 million convertible promissory note that would mature on the latest of (i) January 5, 2024, (ii) termination of agreements between Adagio and ARYA in connection with the Business Combination, or (iii) the termination or lapse of the exclusivity period as defined in the non-binding term sheet as mentioned above, and accrued simple interest at eight percent (8.0%) per annum. Additionally, we obtained the right to issue up to $10.0 million in additional convertible promissory notes available beginning one month after April 4, 2023 through the occurrence of an ARYA stockholder vote with regard to the Business Combination. Pursuant to this right, we issued $2.0 million convertible promissory notes in June 2023, July 2023, August 2023, September 2023 and October 2023.

In November 2023, the April 2023 Notes were amended to align certain terms to the November 2023 Notes (refer to Note 7-Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 for additional details).

Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, the April 2023 Notes automatically converted into shares of New Adagio Common Stock that were issued in the PIPE Financing in an amount equal to the principal amount and any accrued and unpaid interest, divided by the effective price of the securities sold in the PIPE Financing.

November 2023 Notes

On November 28, 2023, Adagio issued to Perceptive Life Sciences Master Fund, Ltd. (the “Perceptive PIPE Investor”), a $2.0 million convertible promissory note that would mature on the latest of (i) January 5, 2024, (ii) termination of agreements between Adagio and ARYA in connection with a non-binding summary of the Business Combination, or (iii) the termination or lapse of the exclusivity period as defined in the non-binding term sheet as mentioned above (the “November 2023 Notes”). The November 2023 Notes accrued simple interest at eight percent (8.0%) per annum. Additionally, Adagio obtained the right to issue up to $6.0 million of Delayed Draw Commitment available beginning one month after November 28, 2023 through the occurrence of an ARYA stockholder vote with regard to the Business Combination.

In December 2023, the November 2023 Notes were amended to permit the issuance of a Delayed Draw Commitment in the original amount of $6.0 million. On December 13, 2023 and December 28, 2023, Adagio drew the principal amount of $1.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, Adagio drew the remaining principal amount of $3.0 million. The combined $6.0 million convertible promissory notes were issued pursuant to the clause and terms in the November 2023 Notes agreement (refer to Note 7-Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 for additional details).

Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, the November 2023 Notes automatically converted into shares of New Adagio Common Stock that were issued in the PIPE Financing in an amount equal to the then-outstanding principal amount and any accrued and unpaid interest, divided by the effective price of the securities sold in the PIPE Financing.

2024 Bridge Financing Note

In connection with the Business Combination, certain investors executed a securities purchase agreement, dated February 13, 2024, with ListCo (the “Convertible Security Subscription Agreement”), pursuant to which ListCo would issue on the Closing Date to certain investors (“Convert Investors”) $20.0 million aggregate principal amount of 13% senior secured convertible notes (the “New Adagio Convertible Notes”), which would be convertible into shares of New Adagio Common Stock, and warrants (the “Convert Warrants”), each of which would be exercisable on a cashless basis or for one share of New Adagio Common Stock at $24.00 per share, subject to adjustment (the “Base Convert Financing”). The New Adagio Convertible Notes would have a maturity of three years and nine months after the Closing and interest would be payable in cash or compound as additional principal outstanding.

The Perceptive PIPE Investor also purchased a $7.0 million convertible promissory note of Adagio (the “2024 Bridge Financing Note”) pursuant to a note purchase agreement, dated February 13, 2024, by and among the Perceptive PIPE Investor, Adagio and ListCo (the “2024 Bridge Financing Note Subscription Agreement”).

As of the issuance date, Adagio received the principal amount of $7.0 million. On the Closing Date, pursuant to the terms of the 2024 Bridge Financing Note and the 2024 Bridge Financing Note Subscription Agreement, the 2024 Bridge Financing Note converted into New Adagio Convertible Notes and Convert Warrants on the same terms as the other Convert Investors executing the Convertible Security Subscription Agreement (the conversion of the 2024 Bridge Financing Note held by the Perceptive PIPE Investor into New Adagio Convertible Notes and Convert Warrants and the purchase of New Adagio Convertible Notes and Convert Warrants by the other Convert Investors in the Base Convert Financing, the “Convertible Security Financing”). Subject to ARYA and New Adagio receiving any new financing or commitment for financing, whether in the form of equity, debt or convertible debt, before the closing date, the Perceptive PIPE Investor had the right to request that on the closing date the 2024 Bridge Financing Note be repaid with the funds raised in connection with such Additional Financing instead of such 2024 Bridge Financing Note converting into New Adagio Convertible Notes and Convert Warrants. The New Adagio Convertible Notes, the Convert Warrants or any shares of New Adagio Common Stock issued in connection with the Convertible Security Financing have not been registered under the Securities Act and were issued in reliance upon the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. New Adagio has granted the Convert Investors certain registration rights in connection with the Convertible Security Financing. The Convertible Security Financing was contingent upon, among other things, the substantially concurrent closing of the Business Combination. As set forth in the Convertible Security Subscription Agreement, the closing of $7,500,000 of financing by the Contingent Investor in the Convertible Security Financing was conditioned on New Adagio having a certain amount of available unrestricted cash on the Closing Date.

May 2024 Notes

On May 21, 2024, Adagio issued a $3.0 million convertible promissory note (“May 2024 Notes”) to Perceptive PIPE Investor that matures upon the termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms. It accrues simple interest at eight percent (8.0%) per annum.

Effective upon the closing of the Business Combination, the May 2024 Notes automatically converted into shares of New Adagio Common Stock that were issued in the PIPE Financing in an amount equal to the then-outstanding principal amount and any accrued and unpaid interest, divided by the effective price of the securities sold in the PIPE Financing.

June 2024 Notes

On June 25, 2024, Adagio issued a $2.5 million convertible promissory note (“June 2024 Notes”) to Perceptive PIPE Investor that matures upon the termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms. It accrues simple interest at eight percent (8.0%) per annum.

Effective upon the closing of the Business Combination, the June 2024 Notes automatically converted into shares of New Adagio Common Stock that were issued in the PIPE Financing in an amount equal to the then-outstanding principal amount and any accrued and unpaid interest, divided by the effective price of the securities sold in the PIPE Financing.

July 2024 Note

On July 24, 2024, Adagio issued a $1.0 million convertible promissory note (“July 2024 Notes”) to Perceptive PIPE Investor that would mature upon the termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms. It accrued simple interest at eight percent (8.0%) per annum.

Effective upon the closing of the Business Combination, the July 2024 Notes automatically converted into shares of New Adagio Common Stock that were issued in the PIPE Financing in an amount equal to the then-outstanding principal amount and any accrued and unpaid interest, divided by the effective price of the securities sold in the PIPE Financing.

SVB Term Loan

In February 2023, we entered into an agreement with Silicon Valley Bank to borrow an initial term loan advance of $3.0 million and a right to borrow a subsequent term loan advance of $2.0 million. The loans mature on January 1, 2025. In conjunction with the SVB Term Loan, we issued warrants to acquire 32,720 common stock shares in February 2023, and distributed additional warrants to acquire 16,360 common stock shares as of June 30, 2023. (Refer to Note 8-Warrants in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 for additional details). The SVB Term Loan was paid off by Adagio at the Closing.

Comparison of Results for the Three-Month Periods Ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (unaudited)

Cash Flows Used in Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $6.7 million, consisting primarily of a net loss of $8.0 million as adjusted for non-cash items of $(1.0) million, and a net change in our net operating assets and liabilities of $2.3 million. Non-cash items primarily consisted of $0.3 million in depreciation and amortization, $0.1 million in stock-based compensation, $0.1 million related to the provision of inventory impairment, and offset by a gain of $1.7 million resulted from the change in fair value of convertible notes payable. Changes in our net operating assets and liabilities year-over-year, was primarily due to a $0.9 million increase in accounts payable, a $0.7 million increase in accrued liabilities, a $0.2 million increase in accrued transaction costs, and a $0.7 million increase in other accrued liabilities, which were primarily driven by the increase in transaction costs related to the Business Combination.

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $6.4 million, consisting primarily of a net loss of $9.3 million as adjusted for non-cash items of $2.7 million, and a net change in our net operating assets and liabilities of $0.2 million. Non-cash items primarily consisted of a loss of $2.4 million related to the change in fair value of convertible notes payables, $0.1 million in depreciation and amortization, and a $0.1 million in stock-based compensation. Changes in our net operating assets and liabilities year-over-year, was primarily due to a $0.2 million increase in accrued transaction costs, and a $0.2 million increase in other accrued liabilities, offset by a $0.2 million decrease in accrued liabilities. The changes were primarily driven by the increase in payroll expenses, and the increase in transaction costs related to the Business Combination.

Cash Flow Used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $0.2 million as compared to $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase of $0.1 million is primarily due to increased purchase of property and equipment in 2024.

Cash Flow Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $9.6 million as compared to $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase of $6.6 million is primarily due to receiving $7.0 million from the issuance of the 2024 Bridge Financing Note, and $3.0 million from the additional draw of the November 2023 Notes, during the three months ended March 31, 2024; whereas during the three months ended March 31, 2023, there was $3.0 million cash proceeds received from the issuance of the SVB Term Loan. Additionally, net cash provided is further offset by $0.4 million repayment of the SVB Term Loan during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Comparison of Results for the Years Ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 (audited)

Non-cash items primarily consisted of a $8.5 million change in fair value of convertible notes payables, $0.5 million in depreciation and amortization, $0.2 million non-cash operating lease expense, and a $0.4 million in stock-based compensation. Changes in our net operating assets and liabilities year-over-year, was primarily due to a $2.8 million increase in accounts payable, a $0.9 million increase in accrued liabilities, a $0.4 million increase in accrued transaction costs, and a $1.4 million increase in other accrued liabilities, which were primarily driven by the increase in payroll expenses, and the increase in transaction costs related to the Business Combination; the changes was offset by a $3.0 million increase in inventory.

Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $22.4 million, consisting primarily of a net loss of $23.7 million as adjusted for non-cash items of $0.9 million, and a net change in our net operating assets and liabilities of $0.3 million. Non-cash items primarily consisted of $0.5 million in depreciation and amortization, and a $0.4 million in stock-based compensation.

Cash Flow Used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $0.3 million as compared to $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease of $0.2 million is primarily due to decreased activities in purchasing property and equipment in 2023.

Cash Flow Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $21.9 million as compared to $9.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase of $12.4 million is due to receiving $20.0 million and $3.0 million in proceeds from issuance of convertible notes payable and proceeds from issuance of SVB Term Loan, respectively, net by a $1.2 million repayment of non-convertible term loan during the year ended December 31, 2023; whereas during the year ended December 31, 2022, the proceeds from issuance of convertible notes payable is $9.5 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

During the periods presented, we did not have, nor do we currently have, any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. We are, therefore, not exposed to the financing, liquidity, market, or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in those types of relationships.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included elsewhere in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. We base our estimates on historical experience, current business factors and various other assumptions that we believe are necessary to consider forming a basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities, the recorded amounts of revenue and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We are subject to uncertainties such as the impact of future events, economic and political factors, and changes in our business environment; therefore, actual results could differ from these estimates.

Accordingly, the accounting estimates used in the preparation of our audited consolidated financial statements will change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. Changes in estimates are made when circumstances warrant. Such changes in estimates and refinements in estimation methodologies are reflected in reported results of operations; if material, the effects of changes in estimates are disclosed in the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements.

On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our consolidated financial statements. These are the policies that we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

Stock-Based Compensation

We recognize compensation expense for all stock-based awards issued to employees and non-employees based on the estimated grant-date fair value, which is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. We have elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The determination of fair value for stock-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model requires management to make certain assumptions including expected volatility, expected term, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends in addition to our common stock valuation. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent our best estimates and involve inherent uncertainties and the application of our judgment.

All stock-based compensation costs are recorded in cost of products sold, research and development expense or selling, general, and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss based upon the respective employee’s or non-employee’s roles.

Common Stock Valuations

Due to the absence of a public trading market, we determined the fair value of our common stock by considering numerous objective and subjective factors. The factors considered include, but are not limited to:

(i) the results of contemporaneous independent third-party valuations of our common stock;

(ii) the prices, rights, preferences and privileges of our preferred stock relative to those of our common stock;

(iii) the lack of marketability of our common stock;

(iv) actual operating and financial results;

(v) current business conditions and projects; and

(vi) the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of our common stock was determined with probability weighted expected return method (“PWERM”), which assessed the probability weighted depending on different scenarios. As of March 31, 2024, the valuation was based on the scenario (i) bankruptcy/suboptimal sale scenario reflecting a zero return to common shareholders, with 10% probability, (ii) an “as converted” merger with an 80% probability, and (iii) a delayed but successful liquidity event per the option pricing method, with 10% probability. As of December 31, 2023, the valuation was based on the scenario (i) the bankruptcy/suboptimal sale scenario reflecting a zero return to common shareholders, with 20% probability (ii) a consummation of a business combination transaction with a SPAC, with 40% probability, and (iii) a delayed but successful liquidity event per the option pricing method, with 40% probability.

As of March 31, 2024, in determining the value under the “as converted” merger, we utilized (i) a diluted equity value of $37.0 million and (ii) all dilutive instruments are expected to convert or be exercised resulting in 6,366,837 total common shares outstanding.

As of December 31, 2023, in determining the value under the consummation of a business combination transaction with a SPAC scenario, we utilized the preliminary terms of the letter of intent with such SPAC that (i) the transaction based on diluted equity value of $38.8 million and (ii) all dilutive instruments are expected to convert or be exercised resulting in 6,369,633 total common shares outstanding.

The valuation under the scenario of a delayed but successful liquidity event per the option pricing method was determined by the fair value per share at a marketable basis applied by a discount for lack marketability (“DLOM”). The fair value per share at a marketable basis was determined using the interval option value allocation approach. The DLOM was determined based on Finnerty put option model, marketability factors and restricted stock studies.

The significant unobservable inputs into the valuation model include:

• the timing of potential events (for example, a consummation of a business combination transaction with a SPAC) and their probability of occurring;

• the selection of guideline public company multiples; and

• a discount for the lack of marketability of the common stock.

An increase or decrease in any of the unobservable inputs in isolation could result in a material change. In the future, depending on the weight of evidence and valuation approaches used, these or other inputs may have a more significant impact on the estimated fair value.

Convertible Notes Valuation

As permitted under ASC 825, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825”), Adagio elected the fair value option to account for the October 2022 Convertible Notes, the April 2023 Notes, the November 2023 Notes and the 2024 Bridge Financing Note in order to measure those liabilities at amounts that more accurately reflect the current economic environment in which Adagio operates.

Adagio recorded the October 2022 Convertible Notes, the April 2023 Notes, the November 2023 Notes and the 2024 Bridge Financing Note at fair value at issuance and subsequently remeasures them to fair value at each reporting period. Changes in fair value are recognized as convertible notes fair value adjustment in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. As a result of applying the fair value option, direct costs and fees related to the issuance of the October 2022 Convertible Notes, the April 2023 Notes, the November 2023 Notes and the 2024 Bridge Financing Note were expensed as incurred (i.e., not recognized as deferred costs). Refer to Note 3-Fair Value Measurements in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 for additional detail.

As of March 31, 2024, Adagio calculated the value of the convertible notes based on the equity value from 409(a) valuations, considering the expected payoff of the convertible notes upon different types of events.

Utilizing the PWERM, Adagio assessed the probability that the October 2022 Convertible Notes would be converted to common stock through the result of a mandatory prepayment, PIPE Financing, or no PIPE Financing and no Qualified Financing (refer to Note 7-Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 for additional detail), weighted with a probability of 10%, 80% and 10%, respectively, as of March 31, 2024.

Utilizing the PWERM, Adagio assessed the probability that the April 2023 Notes and November 2023 Notes would be converted to common stock through the result of a liquidation event, PIPE Financing, or no PIPE Financing and no Qualified Financing, weighted with a probability of 10%, 80% and 10%, respectively, as of March 31, 2024. Adagio also implied a credit spread by calibrating the value of the April 2023 Notes at issuance to the par value and then adjusted the calibrated credit spread for seniority difference and the market related movements as appropriate.

Utilizing the PWERM, Adagio assessed the probability that the 2024 Bridge Financing Note would be converted to common stock as a result of a liquidation event, consummation of a transaction, or no transaction and no Qualified Financing, weighted with a probability of 10%, 80% and 10% as of March 31, 2024.

As of December 31, 2023, Adagio calculated the value of the convertible notes based on the equity value from 409(a) valuations, considering the expected payoff of the convertible notes upon different types of events.

Utilizing the PWERM, Adagio assessed the probability that the October 2022 Convertible Notes would be converted to common stock through the result of mandatory prepayment, Private Investment in PIPE Financing, or no PIPE Financing and no Qualified Financing, weighted with a probability of 20%, 40% and 40%, respectively, as of December 31, 2023.

Utilizing the PWERM, Adagio assessed the probability that the April 2023 Notes and the November 2023 Notes would be converted to common stock as a result of a liquidation event, PIPE Financing, or no PIPE Financing & no Qualified Financing, weighted with a probability of 20%, 40% and 40% as of December 31, 2023. Adagio also implied a credit spread by calibrating the value of the April 2023 Notes at issuance to the par value and then adjusted the calibrated credit spread for seniority difference and the market related movements as appropriate.

Additional assumptions used to estimate the fair value include: (i) the expected timing of the conversion, (ii) the amount subject to equity conversion, the sum of the notes’ principal and unpaid accrued interest, (iii) expected volatility, (iv) risk-free interest rate, and (v) the discount rate, based on the observed option-adjusted spread (OAS) data of traded bonds rated CCC-.

Warrants

Adagio accounts for certain common stock warrants outstanding as warrant liabilities at fair value, determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on the common stock value from 409(a) valuation. The assumption used to estimate the fair value include: (i) expected volatility, (ii) risk-free interest rate, (iii) expected dividend yield, and (iv) expected term.

The liability is subject to re-measurement at each reporting period and any change in fair value is recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. See Note 8-Warrants in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 for additional information related to the warrants.

Term Loan

Adagio accounts for the SVB Term Loan at residual value on the date of issuance. The expected life of the SVB Term Loan is the contractual term ending on the maturity date. Adagio classifies the term loan as current liabilities within twelve months of the maturity date or when otherwise due. Interest expense is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss over the contractual term of the loan. See Note 7-Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 for additional information related to the SVB Term Loan.

Convertible Preferred Stock

Adagio records convertible preferred stock at fair value on the dates of issuance, net of issuance costs. Upon the occurrence of certain events that are outside our control, including a deemed liquidation event, holders of the convertible preferred stock can cause redemption for cash. As the preferred stock is considered to be contingently redeemable, the preferred stock has been classified outside of permanent equity. The preferred stock will be accreted to its redemption value if the deemed liquidation events are considered probable of occurring.

Strategic Realignment of Resources and Corporate Restructuring

On December 1, 2023, Adagio’s management approved a strategic realignment of resources and corporate restructuring (the “RIF”) designed to reallocate capital, conformant to its business focus for the next two years. As part of the RIF, Adagio initiated a reduction in its current workforce of 20 employees, representing approximately 19% of Adagio’s employees, which was completed on December 15, 2023. In compliance with the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, Adagio has provided termination notices to affected employees and government authorities if required.

Adagio made no payment for severance or related benefit costs. Adagio made no payment of retention bonuses.

Emerging Growth Company Status

We are an emerging growth company (“EGC”), as defined in the JOBS Act. The JOBS Act permits companies with EGC status to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards, delaying the adoption of these accounting standards until they would apply to private companies. We have elected to use this extended transition period to enable us to comply with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting standards as of public company effective dates.

In addition, we intend to rely on the other exemptions and reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an EGC, we intend to rely on such exemptions, we are not required to, among other things: (i) provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act; (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis); and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation-related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the Chief Executive Officer’s compensation to median employee compensation.

We will remain an EGC under the JOBS Act until the earliest of (i) the last date of our fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, (ii) the date on which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the rules of the SEC with at least $700.0 million of outstanding securities held by non-affiliates, or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the previous three-years.

Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We have operations primarily within the United States and we are exposed to market risk in the ordinary course of our business. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. Nonetheless, if our costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Our revenue generated in Europe, as well as costs and expenses denominated in Euro, expose us to the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar. We are exposed to foreign currency risks related to our revenue and operating expenses, along with certain intercompany transactions, denominated in Euro. Accordingly, changes in exchange rates may negatively affect our future revenue and other operating results as expressed in U.S. dollars. We do not believe that foreign currency exchange risk has had a material effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management

The SEC has defined “beneficial ownership” of a security to mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of voting power and/or investment power over such security. A shareholder is also deemed to be, as of any date, the beneficial owner of all securities that such shareholder has the right to acquire within 60 days after that date through (a) the exercise of any option, warrant or right, (b) the conversion of a security, (c) the power to revoke a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement, or (d) the automatic termination of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, ordinary shares subject to options or other rights (as set forth above) held by that person that are currently exercisable, or will become exercisable within 60 days thereafter, are deemed outstanding, while such shares are not deemed outstanding for purposes of computing percentage ownership of any other person. Based on the information provided to New Adagio, New Adagio believes that each person named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to all of the shares shown as beneficially owned by such person, except as otherwise indicated in the table or footnotes below.

Family Relationships

Olav Bergheim, the Chief Executive Officer and a director of New Adagio, is father to Hakon Bergheim, the Chief Operating Officer of New Adagio. There are otherwise no family relationships among any of the expected directors and executive officers of New Adagio.

Independence of Our Board of Directors

Under the Nasdaq listing standards, a majority of the members of the Board must qualify as “independent,” as affirmatively determined by the Board. Under the rules of Nasdaq, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of that company’s board of directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The Board has determined that each individual serving on the Board other than Olav Bergheim qualifies as an “independent director” under Nasdaq listing standards.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The Board has three standing committees: an audit committee, a compensation committee, and a nominating and corporate governance committee.

Audit Committee

We established an audit committee of the Board. Ms. Gardiner and Messrs. Moaddeb and Moran serve as members of our audit committee. The Board has determined that each of Ms. Gardiner and Messrs. Moaddeb and Moran is independent. Ms. Gardiner serves as the Chairperson of the audit committee. Each member of the audit committee meets the financial literacy requirements of Nasdaq and the Board has determined that Ms. Gardiner qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules and has accounting or related financial management expertise.

The audit committee is responsible for, among other things:

• selecting, retaining, compensating, evaluating, overseeing and, where appropriate, terminating New Adagio’s independent registered public accounting firm;

• reviewing and approving the scope and plans for the audits and the audit fees and approving all non-audit and tax services to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm;

• evaluating the independence and qualifications of New Adagio’s independent registered public accounting firm;

Executive Compensation

New Adagio intends to develop an executive compensation program that is designed to align compensation with New Adagio’s business objectives and the creation of stockholder value, while enabling New Adagio to attract, motivate and retain individuals who contribute to the long-term success of New Adagio.

Decisions on the executive compensation program will be made by the New Adagio compensation committee of the New Adagio Board.

New Adagio has adopted the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan, the 2024 Key Employee Equity Incentive Plan and the ESPP.

The 2024 Equity Incentive Plan

New Adagio has adopted the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan. The 2024 Equity Incentive Plan enables New Adagio to provide stock-based incentives that align the interests of employees, consultants and directors with those of the stockholders of New Adagio by motivating its employees to achieve long-term results and rewarding them for their achievements and to attract and retain the types of employees, consultants and directors who will contribute to New Adagio’s long-range success.

The 2024 Equity Incentive Plan became effective upon approval by ListCo's stockholders immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination and will remain in effect until the tenth anniversary of its effective date, unless terminated earlier by the New Adagio Board.

The 2024 Equity Incentive Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 4,472,593 shares of New Adagio Common Stock (the “Initial Share Reserve”), plus an annual increase on the first day of each year beginning in 2025 and ending in (and including) 2034 equal to the lesser of (A) five percent (5%) of the shares of New Adagio Common Stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year and (B) such smaller number of shares of New Adagio Common Stock as determined by the New Adagio Board or the compensation committee thereof (the sum of such shares of New Adagio Common Stock available for issuance under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan, the “Total Share Reserve”).

Up to the Initial Share Reserve may be issued under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan, in the aggregate, through the exercise of incentive stock options.

No non-employee director may be granted awards, during any fiscal year, with respect to shares of New Adagio Common Stock that, together with any cash fees paid to the director during the fiscal year, have a total value that exceeds $750,000 or ($1,000,000 in the fiscal year of their initial service as a non-employee director) (calculating the value of any awards based on the grant date fair value for financial reporting purposes), provided that such limitation shall be applied without regard to awards granted to the non-employee directors during any period in which such individual was an employee of New Adagio or was otherwise providing services to New Adagio other than in the capacity as a non-employee director.

If any outstanding award expires or is canceled, forfeited, is settled for cash or terminated without issuance of the full number of shares of New Adagio Common Stock to which the award related, then the shares subject to such award will again become available for future grant under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan. Shares tendered in payment of the option exercise price or delivered or withheld by New Adagio to satisfy any tax withholding obligation, or shares covered by a stock-settled stock appreciation right or other awards that were not issued upon the settlement of the award will again become available for future grants under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan. To the extent permitted under applicable law, awards that provide for the delivery of shares of New Adagio Common Stock subsequent to the applicable grant date may be granted in excess of the Total Share Reserve if such awards provide for the forfeiture or cash settlement of such awards to the extent that insufficient shares of New Adagio Common Stock remain under the Total Share Reserve at the time that shares of New Adagio Common Stock would otherwise be issued in respect of such award. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary described herein, shares of New Adagio Common Stock purchased on the open market with the cash proceeds from the exercise of options shall not be available for future grants of awards under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan. Until the termination of the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan, any shares of New Adagio Common Stock repurchased by New Adagio with respect to performance stock awards or restricted stock awards at the same price paid by the holder or a lower price so that such shares of New Adagio Common Stock are returned to New Adagio will again be available for awards under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan. The payment of dividend equivalents in cash in conjunction with any outstanding awards shall not be counted against the shares of New Adagio Common Stock available for issuance under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan. If any of the actions taken above would cause an incentive stock option to fail to qualify as an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Code, such action will not be taken.

Generally, substitute awards shall not reduce the Total Share Reserve (other than as required by Section 422 of the Code) and, in the event that a company acquired by New Adagio or any subsidiary or with which New Adagio or any subsidiary combines has shares available under a pre-existing plan approved by its stockholders and not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or combination, the shares available for grant pursuant to the terms of such pre-existing plan (as adjusted, to the extent appropriate, using the exchange ratio or other adjustment or valuation ratio or formula used in such acquisition or combination to determine the consideration payable to the holders of common stock of the entities party to such acquisition or combination) may be used for awards under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan and shall not reduce the shares of New Adagio Common Stock authorized for grant under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan; provided that awards using such available shares of New Adagio Common Stock shall not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made under the terms of the pre-existing plan, absent the acquisition or combination, and shall only be made to individuals who were not employed by or providing services to New Adagio or its subsidiaries immediately prior to such acquisition or combination.

The New Adagio compensation committee will make appropriate adjustments to these limits in the event of certain changes in the capitalization of New Adagio.

A more complete summary of the terms of the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan is set forth in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus in the subsection titled “The 2024 Equity Incentive Plan” in the section titled “Management of New Adagio Following the Business Combination” beginning on page 297 of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. That summary and the foregoing description of the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.5 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

The 2024 Key Employee Equity Incentive Plan

New Adagio has adopted the 2024 Key Employee Equity Incentive Plan. The 2024 Key Employee Equity Incentive Plan enables New Adagio to provide enhanced stock-based incentives to each of Olav Bergheim, John Dahldorf, Alex Babkin, Hakon Bergheim, Tim Glynn, Ilya Grigorov, Nabil Jubran, Doug Kurschinski, and James L. Cox (the “Eligible Individuals”) that align the interests of such individuals with those of the stockholders of New Adagio by motivating such individuals to achieve long-term results and rewarding them for their achievements.

The 2024 Key Employee Plan became effective upon approval by ListCo's stockholders immediately prior to the Business Combination and will remain in effect until the tenth anniversary of its effective date, unless terminated earlier by the New Adagio Board.

The 2024 Key Employee Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 3,354,445 shares of New Adagio Common Stock (the “Share Reserve”).

Up to the Share Reserve may be issued under the 2024 Key Employee Plan, in the aggregate, through the exercise of ISOs.

If any outstanding award expires or is canceled, forfeited, is settled for cash or terminated without issuance of the full number of shares of New Adagio Common Stock to which the award related, then the shares subject to such award will again become available for future grant under the 2024 Key Employee Plan. Shares tendered in payment of the option exercise price or delivered or withheld by New Adagio to satisfy any tax withholding obligation, or shares covered by a stock-settled SAR or other awards that were not issued upon the settlement of the award will again become available for future grants under the 2024 Key Employee Plan. To the extent permitted under applicable law, awards that provide for the delivery of shares of New Adagio Common Stock subsequent to the applicable grant date may be granted in excess of the Share Reserve if such awards provide for the forfeiture or cash settlement of such awards to the extent that insufficient shares of New Adagio Common Stock remain under the Share Reserve at the time that shares of New Adagio Common Stock would otherwise be issued in respect of such award. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary described herein, shares of New Adagio Common Stock purchased on the open market with the cash proceeds from the exercise of options shall not be available for future grants of awards under the 2024 Key Employee Plan. Until the termination of the 2024 Key Employee Plan, any shares of New Adagio Common Stock repurchased by New Adagio with respect to performance stock awards or restricted stock awards at the same price paid by the holder or a lower price so that such shares of New Adagio Common Stock are returned to New Adagio will again be available for awards under the 2024 Key Employee Plan. The payment of dividend equivalents in cash in conjunction with any outstanding awards shall not be counted against the shares of New Adagio Common Stock available for issuance under the 2024 Key Employee Plan. If any of the actions taken above would cause an ISO to fail to qualify as an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Code, such action will not be taken.

Generally, substitute awards shall not reduce the Total Share Reserve (other than as required by Section 422 of the Code) and, in the event that a company acquired by New Adagio or any subsidiary or with which New Adagio or any subsidiary combines has shares available under a pre-existing plan approved by its stockholders and not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or combination, the shares available for grant pursuant to the terms of such pre-existing plan (as adjusted, to the extent appropriate, using the exchange ratio or other adjustment or valuation ratio or formula used in such acquisition or combination to determine the consideration payable to the holders of common stock of the entities party to such acquisition or combination) may be used for awards under the 2024 Key Employee Plan and shall not reduce the shares of New Adagio Common Stock authorized for grant under the 2024 Key Employee Plan; provided that awards using such available shares of New Adagio Common Stock shall not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made under the terms of the pre-existing plan, absent the acquisition or combination, and shall only be made to individuals who were not employed by or providing services to New Adagio or its subsidiaries immediately prior to such acquisition or combination.

The compensation committee will make appropriate adjustments to these limits in the event of certain changes in the capitalization of New Adagio.

A more complete summary of the terms of the 2024 Key Employee Plan is set forth in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus in the subsection titled “The 2024 Key Employee Plan” in the section titled “Management of New Adagio Following the Business Combination” beginning on page 302 of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. That summary and the foregoing description of the 2024 Key Employee Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the 2024 Key Employee Plan, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.6 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

The ESPP

New Adagio has adopted the ESPP. The purpose of the ESPP is to assist the eligible employees in acquiring a stock ownership interest in New Adagio in order to help eligible employees provide for their future security and to encourage them to remain in New Adagio’s employment.

The ESPP authorizes the issuance of up to 441,293 shares of New Adagio Common Stock, plus an annual increase on the first day of each year beginning in 2025 and ending in (and including) 2034 equal to the lesser of (A) one percent (1%) of the share of common stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year and (B) such smaller number of shares of common stock as determined by the New Adagio Board or its compensation committee.

A more complete summary of the terms of the ESPP is set forth in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus in the subsection titled “The ESPP” in the section titled “Management of New Adagio Following the Business Combination” beginning on page 307 of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, (i) the aggregate number of HoldCo Shares that each Company Equityholder will have a right to receive (and/or to otherwise be allocated in respect of any other Equity Securities of the Company prior to the Closing (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in respect of any Company Convertible Notes and any Company Warrants)) under this Agreement will be rounded down to the nearest whole share, and (ii) in no event shall the aggregate number of HoldCo Shares set forth on the Allocation Schedule that are allocated to holders of Company Shares, Company Warrants, In-the-Money Options, and Company Convertible Notes, or to be received or otherwise granted in respect of the Equity Securities of the Company, exceed (A) the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration minus (B) the portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration that would be allocated to Company Shares pursuant to Section 2.1(d)(vii) but for such Company Shares being Dissenting Company Shares (it being further understood and agreed, for the avoidance of doubt, that in no event shall any portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration described in this clause (B) be allocated to any other holder of Equity Securities of the Company and shall instead not be allocated at the Closing or otherwise, except solely in the circumstances described in Section 2.6).

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the 2023 Bridge Financing Notes shall not be included in the allocation of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration and shall be converted into HoldCo Shares and HoldCo Warrants pursuant to the 2023 Bridge Note Exchange, and (ii) the 2024 Bridge Financing Note shall not be included in the allocation of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration and shall be converted into HoldCo Convertible Notes and HoldCo Warrants pursuant to the 2024 Bridge Note Exchange.

Section 2.4 Conversion of Company Preferred Shares, Treatment of Company Options, Company Warrants, and Convertible Notes.

(a) On the Closing Date, prior to the Company Preferred Shares Conversion and the Company Merger Effective Time, the Company shall cause the Company Convertible Notes to be automatically and fully converted into the number of Company Shares set forth on the Allocation Schedule in accordance with the terms of such Company Convertible Notes and such Company Convertible Notes (including the outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on such Company Convertible Notes) shall be canceled, satisfied, extinguished, discharged and retired in connection with such conversion and shall (after giving effect to the Company Preferred Shares Conversion pursuant to Section 2.4(b), to the extent applicable) be entitled only to the consideration set forth in Section 2.1(d)(vii) based upon the number of Company Common Shares held by such holder after giving effect to this Section 2.4(a) and the Company Preferred Shares Conversion (the “Company Convertible Notes Conversion”). From and after such Company Convertible Notes Conversion, any notes evidencing such Company Convertible Notes shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled, satisfied, extinguished, discharged and retired and shall cease to exist, and the holder thereof shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, other than, for the avoidance of doubt, as expressly provided herein.

(b) On the Closing Date, prior to the Company Merger Effective Time, the Company shall cause each Company Preferred Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time to be automatically converted into and become a number of Company Common Shares in accordance with the terms of Article V, Section 4 of the Company Certificate of Incorporation (the “Company Preferred Shares Conversion”), and each such Company Preferred Share shall no longer be issued and outstanding and shall automatically be canceled, extinguished, retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder of Company Preferred Shares shall thereafter cease to have any rights with respect to such Company Preferred Shares, other than, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to the Company Common Shares into which such Company Preferred Shares have been converted and then as expressly provided herein.

(c) At the Company Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Company Merger and without any action of any Party or any other Person (but subject to, in the case of the Company, Section 2.4(g)), each In-the-Money Option shall automatically cease to represent the right to purchase Company Common Shares and shall be canceled and extinguished in exchange for an option to purchase HoldCo Shares (each, a “Rollover In-the-Money Option”) with the number of HoldCo Shares, exercise price thereof and the other terms and conditions determined pursuant to this Section 2.4(c). Each Rollover In-the-Money Option shall be (i) be exercisable for, and represent the right to purchase, a number of Holdco Shares equal to (A) the number of Company Common Shares subject to the corresponding In-the-Money Option immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time, multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio, and (ii) have an exercise price per Holdco Share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) subject to such Rollover In-the-Money Option equal to (A) the exercise price per Company Common Share applicable to the corresponding In-the-Money Option immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time, divided by (B) the Exchange Ratio. Each Rollover In-the-Money Option shall otherwise be subject to the same terms and conditions (including applicable expiration and forfeiture provisions) that applied to the corresponding In-the-Money Option immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time, except for (I) terms rendered inoperative by reason of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including any anti-dilution or other similar provisions that adjust the number of underlying shares that are subject to any such option) and (II) such other immaterial administrative or ministerial changes as the HoldCo Board (or the compensation committee of the HoldCo Board) may determine in good faith are appropriate to effectuate the administration of the Rollover In-the-Money Options. Such conversion shall occur in a manner intended to comply with (x) the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and (y) in the case of any Rollover In-the-Money Option that is an Incentive Stock Option, the requirements of Section 424 of the Code.

(d) At the Company Merger Effective Time, by virtue of the Company Merger and without any action of any Party or any other Person (but subject to, in the case of the Company, Section 2.4(g)), each Company Equity Award (other than the In-the-Money Options as contemplated hereby) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and extinguished for no consideration and each holder thereof shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto.

23

(e) Immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time, each Company Warrant shall be either (i) terminated or (ii) “net” exercised in exchange for a number of Company Common Shares determined in accordance with the terms of the applicable warrant agreement, in either case, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable warrant agreement and shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled, extinguished and retired and shall cease to exist, and the holder thereof shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, other than, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Company Common Shares into which the Company Warrants are exchanged (“Company Warrant Exercise”).

(f) At the Company Merger Effective Time, all Company Equity Plans, Company Warrants, all Company Equity Awards (whether vested or unvested) and Company Convertible Notes shall automatically terminate without any further obligations or Liabilities to the Company or any of its Affiliates (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the other Group Companies, ARYA and HoldCo), all Company Equity Awards (whether vested or unvested), all Company Warrants, and all Company Convertible Notes shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled, extinguished and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder thereof shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto or under the Company Equity Plans or any underlying grant, award, warrant, convertible promissory note or similar agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Section 2.4, as applicable.

(g) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall take, or cause to be taken, all necessary or appropriate actions under the Company Equity Plans or otherwise with respect to the Company Equity Awards, with respect to the Company Warrants, with respect to the Company Convertible Notes, and under each other underlying grant, award, warrant, convertible promissory note, or similar agreement (as applicable) and otherwise, to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.4, and cause the ARYA Parties and their respective Affiliates to have no Liability with respect thereto, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

Section 2.5 ARYA Transfer Agent Matters; Exchange Agent Matters.

(a) HoldCo and ARYA shall each take, or cause to be taken, all necessary or reasonably advisable actions in order to appropriately reflect the HoldCo Shares issued to the ARYA Shareholders pursuant to, or as a result of, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents and outstanding immediately following the ARYA Merger Effective Time, including taking any necessary or reasonably advisable actions vis-à-vis HoldCo’s transfer agent, and HoldCo and ARYA shall each reasonably cooperate with the other and HoldCo’s transfer agent in connection with the foregoing.

(b) At least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, HoldCo shall appoint an exchange agent reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Exchange Agent”) (it being understood and agreed, for the avoidance of doubt, that Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (or any of its Affiliates) shall be deemed to be acceptable to the Company) for the purpose of exchanging Certificates, if any, representing the Company Shares and each Company Share held in book-entry form on the stock transfer books of the Company immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time, for the portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration issuable in respect of such Company Shares pursuant to Section 2.1(d)(vii) and on the terms and subject to the other conditions set forth in this Agreement. If required by the Exchange Agent, HoldCo shall enter into an exchange agent agreement with the Exchange Agent (the “Exchange Agent Agreement”) in a form and substance that is reasonably acceptable to HoldCo. The Company shall, and shall cause its Representatives to, reasonably cooperate with HoldCo, the Exchange Agent and their respective Representatives in connection with the appointment of the Exchange Agent, the entry into the Exchange Agent Agreement (including, if necessary or advisable, as determined in good faith by HoldCo, by also entering into the Exchange Agent Agreement in the form agreed to by HoldCo and the Exchange Agent) and the covenants and agreements in this Section 2.5 (including the provision of any information, or the entry into any agreements or documentation, necessary or advisable, as determined in good faith by HoldCo, or otherwise required by the Exchange Agent Agreement for the Exchange Agent to fulfill its duties as the Exchange Agent in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby).

(c) If the Exchange Agent requires that, as a condition to receive the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration, any holder of Company Shares deliver a Letter of Transmittal to the Exchange Agent, then at or as promptly as practicable following the Company Merger Effective Time, HoldCo shall send, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to send, to the Persons that will be the Company Shareholders as of immediately prior to the

24

Company Merger Effective Time, a Letter of Transmittal (which shall specify that the delivery shall be effected, and the risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper transfer of each share to the Exchange Agent, and which Letter of Transmittal will be in customary form and have such other provisions as HoldCo and the Company may reasonably specify).

(d) At or before the Company Merger Effective Time, HoldCo shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the Company Shareholders and for exchange in accordance with this Section 2.5 through the Exchange Agent, evidence of HoldCo Shares in book-entry form representing the portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration issuable pursuant to Section 2.1(d)(vii) in exchange for the Company Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time. All shares in book-entry form representing the portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration issuable pursuant to Section 2.1(d)(vii) deposited with the Exchange Agent shall be referred to in this Agreement as the “Exchange Fund.”

(e) Each Company Shareholder whose Company Shares have been converted into the right to receive a portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(d)(vii), shall be entitled to receive the portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration to which he, she or it is entitled upon (i) surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof in the form required by the Letter of Transmittal), together with the delivery of a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any other documents or agreements required by the Letter of Transmittal), to the Exchange Agent or (ii) delivery of an “agent’s message” in the case of Company Shares held in book-entry form, together with the delivery of a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any other documents or agreements required by the Letter of Transmittal), to the Exchange Agent.

(f) If a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal, together with any Certificates (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof in the form required by the Letter of Transmittal) or an “agent’s message”, as applicable, and any other documents or agreements required by the Letter of Transmittal, is delivered to the Exchange Agent in accordance with Section 2.5(e) (i) at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, then HoldCo and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration to be issued to the applicable Company Shareholder in book-entry form on the Closing Date, and (ii) less than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, then Holdco and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration to be issued to the applicable Company Shareholder in book-entry form within two (2) Business Days after such delivery.

(g) If any portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration is to be issued to a Person other than the Company Shareholder in whose name the surrendered Certificate or the transferred Company Share in book-entry form is registered, it shall be a condition to the issuance of the applicable portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration that, in addition to any other requirements set forth in the Letter of Transmittal or the Exchange Agent Agreement, (i) either such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such Company Share in book-entry form shall be properly transferred and (ii) the Person requesting such consideration pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or similar Taxes required as a result of such consideration being issued to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Company Share in book-entry form or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such transfer or similar Taxes have been paid or are not payable. No interest will be paid or accrued on the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration (or any portion thereof). From and after the Company Merger Effective Time, until surrendered or transferred, as applicable, in accordance with this Section 2.5, each Company Share (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, any Dissenting Company Shares and the Company Shares cancelled and extinguished pursuant to Section 2.1(d)(viii)) shall solely represent the right to receive a portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration to which such Company Share is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(d)(vii).

(h) At the Company Merger Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no transfers of Company Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Company Merger Effective Time.

(i) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed twelve (12) months following the Closing Date shall be delivered to HoldCo or as otherwise instructed by HoldCo, and any Company Shareholder who has not exchanged his, her or its Company Shares for the applicable portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.5 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to HoldCo for the issuance of the applicable portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration, as applicable, without any interest thereon. None

25

of HoldCo, ARYA, the Company, First Surviving Company, Second Surviving Company or any of their respective Affiliates shall be liable to any Person in respect of any consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, unclaimed property, escheat, or similar Law. Any portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration remaining unclaimed by the Company Shareholders immediately prior to such time when the amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity shall become, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the property of HoldCo free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

Section 2.6 Dissenting Shareholders.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Company Share for which any Company Shareholder (such Company Shareholder, a “Dissenting Company Shareholder”) (i) has not voted in favor of the Company Merger or consented to it in writing, or has waived its rights of appraisal and (ii) has demanded the appraisal of such Company Shares in accordance with, and has complied in all respects with, Section 262 of the DGCL (collectively, the “Dissenting Company Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the applicable portion of Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(d)(vii). From and after the Company Merger Effective Time, (A) the Dissenting Company Shares shall be cancelled and extinguished and shall cease to exist and (B) the Dissenting Company Shareholders shall be entitled only to such rights as may be granted to them under Section 262 of the DGCL and shall not be entitled to exercise any of the voting rights or other rights of a stockholder of the Second Surviving Company or any of its Affiliates (including HoldCo); provided, however, that if any Dissenting Company Shareholder effectively withdraws or loses such appraisal rights (through failure to perfect such appraisal rights or otherwise), then the Company Shares held by such Dissenting Company Shareholder (1) shall no longer be deemed to be Dissenting Company Shares and (2) shall be treated as if they had been converted automatically at the Company Merger Effective Time into the right to receive the applicable portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(d)(vii) upon delivery of a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any other documents or agreements required by the Letter of Transmittal) and the surrender of the applicable documents and other deliverables set forth in Section 2.5(e). Each Dissenting Company Shareholder who becomes entitled to payment for his, her or its Dissenting Company Shares pursuant to the DGCL shall receive payment thereof from the Company in accordance with the DGCL. The Company shall give ARYA and HoldCo prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal of any Company Share, attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other material developments related to any such demands and provide copies of all documents, instruments or other communications received by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives related thereto and shall otherwise keep ARYA and HoldCo reasonably apprised as to the status and developments related to such matters, and ARYA and HoldCo shall have the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to all such demands. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of ARYA and HoldCo (prior to the Closing) or the ARYA Sponsor (after the Closing), make any payment or deliver any consideration (including HoldCo Shares) with respect to, settle or offer or agree to settle any such demands.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein and in accordance with the Cayman Companies Law, any ARYA Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the ARYA Merger Effective Time for which any ARYA Shareholder (such ARYA Shareholder, a “Dissenting ARYA Shareholder”) has validly exercised properly in writing their dissenters’ rights for such ARYA Shares in accordance with Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Law, and has otherwise complied in all respects with all of the provisions of the Cayman Companies Law relevant to the exercise and perfection of dissenters’ rights (collectively, the “Dissenting ARYA Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive, and the applicable Dissenting ARYA Shareholder shall have no right to receive, the applicable portion of the ARYA Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(c)(vii) unless and until such Dissenting ARYA Shareholder effectively withdraws or loses such dissenters’ rights (through failure to perfect such dissenters’ rights or otherwise) under the Cayman Companies Law. From and after the ARYA Merger Effective Time, (A) the Dissenting ARYA Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and extinguished by virtue of the ARYA Merger and shall cease to exist and (B) the Dissenting ARYA Shareholders shall be entitled only to such rights as may be granted to them under Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Law and shall not be entitled to exercise any of the voting rights or other rights of a shareholder of the First Surviving Company or any of its Affiliates (including HoldCo); provided, however, that if any Dissenting ARYA Shareholder effectively withdraws or loses such dissenters’ rights (through failure to perfect such dissenters’ rights or otherwise) under the Cayman Companies Law, then the ARYA Shares held by such Dissenting ARYA Shareholder (1) shall no longer be deemed to be Dissenting ARYA Shares and (2) shall be treated as if they had been converted automatically at the ARYA

26

Merger Effective Time into the right to receive the applicable portion of the ARYA Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(c)(vii) upon delivery of a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any other documents or agreements required by the Letter of Transmittal) and the surrender of the applicable documents and other deliverables described in Section 2.5(e). Each Dissenting ARYA Shareholder who becomes entitled to payment for his, her or its Dissenting ARYA Shares pursuant to the Cayman Companies Law shall receive payment thereof from ARYA in accordance with the Cayman Companies Law. ARYA shall give HoldCo prompt notice of any written demands for dissenters’ rights of any ARYA Share, attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other material developments related to any such demands and provide copies of all documents, instruments or other communications received by ARYA, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives related thereto and shall otherwise keep HoldCo reasonably apprised as to the status and developments related to such matters, and HoldCo shall have the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to all such demands. ARYA shall not, except with the prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of HoldCo (prior to the Closing) or the ARYA Sponsor (after the Closing), make any payment or deliver any consideration (including HoldCo Shares) with respect to, settle or offer or agree to settle any such demands.

Section 2.7 Withholding. HoldCo, ARYA, the Group Companies, ARYA Merger Sub, Company Merger Sub, the First Surviving Company, the Second Surviving Company, and the Exchange Agent (and their respective Affiliates) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold (or cause to be deducted and withheld) from any consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld under applicable Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. The Parties shall cooperate in good faith to eliminate or reduce any such deduction or withholding (including through the request and provision of any statements, forms or other documents to reduce or eliminate any such deduction or withholding), except with respect to compensatory amounts payable to current or former employees.

Section 2.8 Further Assurances. If, at any time after the ARYA Merger Effective Time, any further action is necessary, proper or advisable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, HoldCo, the First Surviving Company, the Company Merger Sub and the Company (or their respective designees) shall take all such actions as are necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws, so long as such action is consistent with and for the purposes of implementing the provisions of this Agreement.

The Parties further acknowledge that the ARYA Merger may also independently qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and for the avoidance of doubt, the preceding sentence shall not be interpreted to prevent a person from reporting the ARYA Merger as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

57

and limitations, and, if the SEC requires a tax opinion with respect to the Intended Tax Treatment of the Mergers or other Tax consequences of the transactions contemplated hereby to equityholders of the Company, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such opinion (as so required by the SEC) to be provided by Reed Smith LLP (or such other tax advisors or counsel of the Company as determined by the Company and acceptable to the SEC), subject to customary assumptions and limitations. Each of the Parties shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to) use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with one another and their respective Tax advisors or counsel in connection with the issuance of an opinion described under this Section 5.5(a)(iii).

(b) Tax Matters Cooperation. Each of the Parties shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to) cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by another Party, in connection with the filing of relevant Tax Returns, and any audit or Tax Proceeding.

(c) The Company shall purchase, at or prior to the Closing, and HoldCo shall cause the applicable Group Companies to maintain, or cause to be maintained, in effect for a period of six (6) years following the Company Merger Effective Time, without lapses in coverage, a “tail” policy providing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage for the benefit of those Persons who are currently covered by any comparable insurance policies of the Group Companies in effect as of the date of this Agreement with respect to matters occurring on or prior to the Company Merger Effective Time. Such policy shall provide coverage on terms (with respect to coverage and amount) that are substantially the same as (and no less favorable in the aggregate to the Persons covered thereby) the coverage provided under the Group Companies’ directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies in effect as of the date of this Agreement (provided that any limitations or exclusions in, or provided under, the existing policies relating to a business combination transaction shall be removed therefrom and such policies shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be effective from and after the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby); provided that the Group Companies or any of their respective Affiliates shall not be obligated to pay annual premiums in excess of three hundred percent (300%) of the most recent annual premium paid by the Group Companies prior to the date of this Agreement and, in such event, the Group Companies shall purchase the maximum coverage available for Three Hundred percent (300%) of the most recent annual premium paid by the Group Companies prior to the date of this Agreement.

75

Section 8.17 Remedies. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any and all remedies provided herein will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform their respective obligations under the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise breach such provisions. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in each case, without posting a bond or undertaking and without proof of damages and this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on the basis that the other parties have an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity.

Section 8.18 Trust Account Waiver. Reference is made to the final prospectus of ARYA, filed with the SEC on March 1, 2021 (the “Prospectus”). The Company acknowledges and agrees and understands that ARYA has established a trust account (the “Trust Account”) containing the proceeds of its initial public offering (the “IPO”) and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of ARYA’s public shareholders (including overallotment shares acquired by ARYA’s underwriters, the “Public Shareholders”), and ARYA may disburse monies from the Trust Account only in the express circumstances described in the Prospectus. For and in consideration of ARYA entering into this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company hereby agrees on behalf of itself and its Representatives that, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Company, nor any of its Representatives does now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this Agreement or any proposed or actual business relationship between ARYA or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and, the Company, or any of its Representatives, on the other hand, or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (any and all such claims are collectively referred to hereafter as the “Trust Account Released Claims”). The Company, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Representatives, hereby irrevocably waives any Trust Account Released Claims that it or any of its Representatives may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, or Contracts with ARYA or its Representatives and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) for any reason whatsoever (including for an alleged breach of any agreement with ARYA or its Affiliates).

The present name of the corporation is “Aja HoldCo, Inc.” The original certificate of incorporation was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on December 19, 2023 (the “Original Certificate of Incorporation”). This Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (this “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”), which changes the name of the Company to “Adagio Medical Holdings, Inc.” and amends and restates the Original Certificate of Incorporation in its entirety, has been duly adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) in accordance with the provisions of Sections 242 and 245 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”). The Original Certificate of Incorporation is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read in full as follows:

ARTICLE I

NAME

The name of this corporation is Adagio Medical Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”).

ARTICLE II

REGISTERED OFFICE AND AGENT

The address of the Company’s registered office in the State of Delaware is 251 Little Falls Drive, Wilmington, New Castle County, Delaware 19808. The name of its registered agent at such address is Corporation Service Company.

ARTICLE III

PURPOSE AND DURATION

The purpose of the Company shall be to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the DGCL as it now exists or may hereafter be amended and supplemented. In addition to the powers and privileges conferred upon the Company by law and those incidental thereto, the Company shall possess and may exercise all the powers and privileges that are necessary or convenient to the conduct, promotion or attainment of the business or purposes of the Company. The Company is to have a perpetual existence.

ARTICLE IV

CAPITAL STOCK

Section 1. This Company is authorized to issue two classes of stock, to be designated, respectively, Common Stock and Preferred Stock. The total number of shares of stock that the Company shall have authority to issue is 230,000,000 shares, of which 210,000,000 shares are Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), and 20,000,000 shares are Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Preferred Stock”).

Section 2. Each share of Common Stock outstanding as of the applicable record date shall entitle the holder thereof to one (1) vote on any matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of stockholders.

 Section 3. The Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series pursuant to a resolution or resolutions providing for such issue duly adopted by the Board of Directors (authority to do so being hereby expressly vested in the Board of Directors). The Board of Directors is further authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by law, to fix by resolution or resolutions the designations, powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of any series of Preferred Stock, including, without limitation, authority to fix by resolution or resolutions the dividend rights, dividend rate, conversion rights, voting rights, rights and terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price or prices, and liquidation preferences of any such series, and the number of shares constituting any such series and the designation thereof, or any of the foregoing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the resolution or resolutions providing for the establishment of any series of Preferred Stock may, to the extent permitted by law, provide that such series shall be superior to, rank equally with or be junior to the Preferred Stock of any other series. The Board of Directors is further authorized to increase (but not above the total number of authorized shares of the class) or decrease (but not below the number of shares of any such series then outstanding) the number of shares of any series, subject to the powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof stated in this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the resolution of the Board of Directors originally fixing the number of shares of such series. Except as may be otherwise specified by the terms of any series of Preferred Stock, if the number of shares of any series of Preferred Stock is so decreased, then the Company shall take all such steps as are necessary to cause the shares constituting such decrease to resume the status which they had prior to the adoption of the resolution originally fixing the number of shares of such series.

Section 4. Except as otherwise required by law or provided in this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, holders of Common Stock shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation filed with respect 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 as a class with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon by law or pursuant to this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of designation filed with respect to any series of Preferred Stock).

Section 5. The number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon, without a separate vote of the holders of the class or classes the number of authorized shares of which are being increased or decreased, unless a vote of any holders of one or more series of Preferred Stock is required pursuant to the terms of any certificate of designation relating to any series of Preferred Stock, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL.

ARTICLE V

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Section 1. Subject to the rights of holders of Preferred Stock, the number of directors that constitutes the entire Board of Directors of the Company shall be fixed only by resolution of the Board of Directors acting pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the Whole Board. For the purposes of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the term “Whole Board” shall mean the total number of authorized directorships whether or not there exist any vacancies or other unfilled seats in previously authorized directorships. At each annual meeting of stockholders, directors of the Company shall be elected to hold office until the expiration of the term for which they are elected and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified or until their earlier resignation or removal; except that if any such meeting shall not be so held, such election shall take place at a stockholders’ meeting called and held in accordance with the DGCL.

Section 2. The Board of Directors of the Company (other than any who may be elected by holders of Preferred Stock under specified circumstances) shall initially consist of up to seven (7) directors, which shall be divided into three (3) classes, with directors serving staggered three-year terms, designated Class I, II and III, with Class I consisting of two (2) directors whose initial terms expire at the first annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company following the date hereof, Class II consisting of two (2) directors whose initial terms expire at the second annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company following the date hereof, and Class III consisting of up to three (3) directors whose initial terms expire at the third annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company following the date hereof. At each succeeding annual meeting of stockholders, directors shall be elected for a full term of three years to succeed the directors of the class whose terms expire at such annual meeting. If the number of directors is changed, any newly created directorships or decrease in directorships shall be so apportioned hereafter among the classes as to make all classes as nearly equal in number as is practicable; provided that no decrease in the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director. Directors already in office at the time such classification becomes effective and who will remain in office shall be assigned to each class in accordance with a resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors.

Section 3. The business and affairs of the Company shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors. In addition to the powers and authority expressly conferred upon them by statute or by this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws of the Company (the “Bylaws”), the directors are hereby empowered to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be exercised or done by the Company.

Section 4. In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by statute, the Board of Directors is expressly authorized to adopt, alter, amend or repeal the Bylaws. The affirmative vote of at least a majority of the Whole Board shall be required in order for the Board of Directors to adopt, amend, alter or repeal the Bylaws. The Bylaws may also be adopted, amended, altered or repealed by the stockholders of the Company.Notwithstanding the above or any other provision of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws may not be amended, altered or repealed except in accordance with the provisions of the Bylaws relating to amendments to the Bylaws. No Bylaw hereafter legally adopted, amended, altered or repealed shall invalidate any prior act of the directors or officers of the Company that would have been valid if such Bylaw had not been adopted, amended, altered or repealed.

Section 5. From and after the effectiveness of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, only for so long as the Board of Directors is classified and subject to the rights of holders of Preferred Stock, any director or the entire Board of Directors may be removed from office at any time, but only for cause, and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of the voting power of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company entitled to vote in the election of directors.

Section 6. Except as otherwise provided for or fixed by or pursuant to the provisions of this Article IV hereof in relation to the rights of the holders of Preferred Stock to elect directors under specified circumstances or except as otherwise provided by resolution of a majority of the Whole Board, newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors, created in accordance with the Bylaws, and any vacancies on the Board of Directors resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, removal or other cause shall be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board of Directors, or by a sole remaining director, and not by the stockholders. A person so elected by the Board of Directors 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 until his or her successor shall have been duly elected and qualified, or until such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal. No decrease in the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.

Section 7. The election of directors need not be by written ballot unless the Bylaws shall so provide.

Section 8. No stockholder will be permitted to cumulate votes at any election of directors.

ARTICLE VI

STOCKHOLDERS

Section 1. From and after the effectiveness of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, and subject to the rights of holders of Preferred Stock, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Company must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company and may not be effected by any consent in writing by such stockholders; provided, however, that any action required or permitted to be taken by the holders of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series or separately as a class with one or more other such series, 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 2. Subject to the terms of any series of Preferred Stock, special meetings of stockholders of the Company may be called only by the chairperson of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer, the President or the Board of Directors acting pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the Whole Board, but a special meeting may not be called by any other person or persons and any power of stockholders to call a special meeting of stockholders is specifically denied. Only such business shall be considered at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been stated in the notice for such meeting.

Section 3. Advance notice of stockholder nominations for the election of directors and of other business to be brought by stockholders before any meeting of the stockholders of the Company shall be given in the manner and to the extent provided in the Bylaws.

Section 4. Meetings of stockholders may be held within or outside of the State of Delaware, as the Bylaws may provide.

ARTICLE VII

Section 1. To the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as the same exists or as may hereafter be amended from time to time, a director or officer of the Company shall not be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. If the DGCL is hereafter amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director or officer of the Company shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as so amended, automatically and without further action, upon the date of such amendment.

Section 2. Subject to any provisions in the Bylaws related to indemnification of directors of the Company, the Company shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any director of the Company who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding”) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with any such Proceeding. The Company shall be required to indemnify a person in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if the Proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors.

Section 3. The Company shall have the power to indemnify, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any officer, employee or agent of the Company who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any Proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with any such Proceeding.

Section 4. Neither any amendment, repeal nor elimination of any Section of this Article VII, nor the adoption of any provision of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws inconsistent with this Article VII, shall eliminate or reduce the effect of this Article VII in respect of any matter occurring, or any Proceeding accruing or arising (or that, but for this Article VII, would accrue or arise) prior to such amendment, repeal, elimination or adoption of an inconsistent provision.

ARTICLE VIII

EXCLUSIVE FORUM

Section 1. Unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, (i) the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Chancery Court”) shall be the sole and exclusive forum for any stockholder (including a beneficial owner) to bring (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company, (b) any action, suit or proceeding asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any current or former director, officer or other employee, agent or stockholder of the Company to the Company or to the Company’s stockholders, (c) any action, suit or proceeding asserting a claim against the Company, its current or former directors, officers, or employees, agents or stockholders arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws, or (d) any action, suit or proceeding asserting a claim against the Company, its current or former directors, officers, or employees, agents or stockholders governed by the internal affairs doctrine; and (ii) subject to the preceding provisions of this Article VIII, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause or causes of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including all causes of action asserted against any defendant to such complaint. If any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of this Section 1 of this Article VIII is filed in a court other than, in the cause of clause (i) the Chancery Court, and in the case of clause (ii) the federal district courts of the United States of America (a “Foreign Action”) by any stockholder (including any beneficial owner), to the fullest extent permitted by law, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented to: (a) the personal jurisdiction of the Chancery Court and any federal district courts in the United States of America in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce this Section 1 of this Article VIII; and (b) having service of process made upon such stockholder in any such action by service upon such stockholder’s counsel in the Foreign Action as agent for such stockholder.

Section 2. The exclusive forum provision set forth in Section 1 above of this Article VIII does not apply to, and does not preclude or contract the scope of, either (i) exclusive federal jurisdiction pursuant to Section 27 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), for claims seeking to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder, or any other claim for which the U.S. federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction, or (ii) concurrent jurisdiction under Section 22 of the Securities Act, for federal and state courts over all claims seeking to enforce any liability or duty created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any security of the Company shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Article VIII.

ARTICLE IX

AMENDMENTS

The Company reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in this Amended and Restate Certificate of Incorporation in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the DGCL, and all rights, preferences and privileges herein conferred upon stockholders, directors or any other persons herein are granted by and pursuant to this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation in its current form or as hereafter amended are granted subject to the right reserved in this Article IX.

The address of the registered office of Adagio Medical Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) in the State of Delaware, and the name of its registered agent at such address, shall be fixed in the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as the same may be amended and/or restated from time to time (the “Certificate of Incorporation”).

1.2 Other Offices.

The Company may at any time establish other offices at any place or places, within or outside of the State of Delaware, as the board of directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) may from time to time establish or as the business of the Company may require.

ARTICLE II – MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS

2.1 Place of Meetings.

Meetings of stockholders shall be held at a place, if any, within or outside the State of Delaware, determined by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, determine that a meeting of stockholders shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication as authorized by Section 211(a)(2) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”). In the absence of any such designation or determination, stockholders’ meetings shall be held at the Company’s principal executive offices.

2.2 Annual Meeting.

The annual meeting of stockholders shall be held each year. The Board of Directors shall designate the date and time of the annual meeting. At the annual meeting, directors shall be elected and any other proper business, brought in accordance with Section 2.4 of these bylaws, may be transacted. The Board of Directors acting pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the Whole Board may cancel, postpone or reschedule any previously scheduled annual meeting at any time, before or after the notice for such meeting has been sent to the stockholders. For the purposes of these bylaws, the term “Whole Board” shall mean the total number of authorized directorships whether or not there exist any vacancies or other unfilled seats in previously authorized directorships.

2.3 Special Meeting.

(a) A special meeting of the stockholders, other than as required by statute, may be called at any time by (i) the Board of Directors acting pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the Whole Board, (ii) the chairperson of the Board of Directors, (iii) the chief executive officer or (iv) the president, but a special meeting may not be called by any other person or persons and any power of stockholders to call a special meeting of stockholders is specifically denied. The Board of Directors acting pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the Whole Board may cancel, postpone or reschedule any previously scheduled special meeting at any time, before or after the notice for such meeting has been sent to the stockholders.

(b) The notice of a special meeting shall include the purpose for which the meeting is called. Only such business shall be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting by or at the direction of a majority of the Whole Board, the chairperson of the Board of Directors, the chief executive officer or the president. Nothing contained in this Section 2.3(b) shall be construed as limiting, fixing or affecting the time when a meeting of stockholders called by action of the Board of Directors may be held.

2.4 Advance Notice Procedures.

(a) Annual Meetings of Stockholders.

(i)  Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors or the proposal of other business to be transacted by the stockholders at an annual meeting of stockholders may be made only (1) pursuant to the Company’s notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto); (2) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors; (3) as may be provided in the certificate of designations for any class or series of preferred stock; or (4) by any stockholder of the Company who (A) is a stockholder of record at the time of giving of the notice contemplated by Section 2.4(a)(ii); (B) is a stockholder of record on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of the annual meeting; (C) is a stockholder of record on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the annual meeting; (D) is a stockholder of record at the time of the annual meeting; and (E) complies with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.4(a).

(ii) For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting of stockholders by a stockholder pursuant to clause (4) of Section 2.4(a)(i), the stockholder must have given timely notice in writing to the secretary and any such nomination or proposed business must constitute a proper matter for stockholder action. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be received by the secretary at the principal executive offices of the Company no earlier than 8:00 a.m., local time, on the ¹²0th day and no later than 5:00 p.m., local time, on the 90th day prior to the day of the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders. However, if no annual meeting of stockholders was held in the preceding year, or if the date of the applicable annual meeting has been changed by more than 25 days from the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, then to be timely such notice must be received by the secretary at the principal executive offices of the Company no earlier than 8:00 a.m., local time, on the 120th day prior to the day of the annual meeting and no later than 5:00 p.m., local time, on the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the annual meeting was first made by the Company. In no event will the adjournment, rescheduling or postponement of any annual meeting, or any announcement thereof, commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above. If the number of directors to be elected to the Board of Directors is increased and there is no public announcement naming all of the nominees for director or specifying the size of the increased Board of Directors at least ten (10) days before the last day that a stockholder may deliver a notice of nomination pursuant to the foregoing provisions, then a stockholder’s notice required by this Section 2.4(a)(ii) will also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions created by such increase, if it is received by the secretary at the principal executive offices of the Company no later than 5:00 p.m., local time, on the 10th day following the day on which such public announcement is first made. “Public announcement” means disclosure in a press release reported by a national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended and inclusive of rules and regulations thereunder, the “1934 Act”).

(iii) A stockholder’s notice to the secretary must set forth:

(1)  as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election as a director:

(b)  Special Meetings of Stockholders. Except to the extent required by the DGCL, and subject to Section 2.3(a), special meetings of stockholders may be called only in accordance with the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and these bylaws.

A stockholder’s notice to the Secretary must comply with the applicable notice requirements of Section 2.4(a)(iii).

(c)  Other Requirements.

(i)  To be eligible to be a nominee by any stockholder for election as a director of the Company, the proposed nominee must provide to the secretary, in accordance with the applicable time periods prescribed for delivery of notice under Section 2.4(a)(ii) or Section 2.4(b):

(1)  a signed and completed written questionnaire (in the form provided by the secretary at the written request of the nominating stockholder, which form will be provided by the secretary within ten (10) days of receiving such request) containing information regarding such nominee’s background and qualifications and such other information as may reasonably be required by the Company to determine the eligibility of such nominee to serve as a director of the Company or to serve as an independent director of the Company;

(2)  a written representation and undertaking that, unless previously disclosed to the Company, such nominee is not, and will not become, a party to any voting agreement, arrangement, commitment, assurance or understanding with any person or entity as to how such nominee, if elected as a director, will vote on any issue;

(3)  a written representation and undertaking that, unless previously disclosed to the Company, such nominee is not, and will not become, a party to any Third-Party Compensation Arrangement;

(ii)  At the request of the Board of Directors, any person nominated by the Board of Directors for election as a director must furnish to the secretary the information that is required to be set forth in a stockholder’s notice of nomination that pertains to such nominee.

(iii) No person will be eligible to be nominated by a stockholder for election as a director of the Company unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.4. No business proposed by a stockholder will be conducted at a stockholder meeting except in accordance with this Section 2.4.

(iv) The chairperson of the applicable meeting of stockholders will, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a nomination was not made in accordance with the procedures prescribed by these bylaws or that business was not properly brought before the meeting. If the chairperson of the meeting should so determine, then the chairperson of the meeting will so declare to the meeting and the defective nomination will be disregarded or such business will not be transacted, as the case may be.

E-8

(v)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.4, unless otherwise required by law, if the stockholder (or a qualified representative of the stockholder) does not appear in person at the meeting to present a nomination or other proposed business, such nomination will be disregarded or such proposed business will not be transacted, as the case may be, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such nomination or business may have been received by the Company and counted for purposes of determining a quorum. For purposes of this Section 2.4, to be considered a qualified representative of the stockholder, a person must be a duly authorized officer, manager or partner of such stockholder or must be authorized by a writing executed by such stockholder or an electronic transmission delivered by such stockholder to act for such stockholder as proxy at the meeting, and such person must produce such writing or electronic transmission, or a reliable reproduction of the writing or electronic transmission, at the meeting.

(vi) Without limiting this Section 2.4, a stockholder must also comply with all applicable requirements of the 1934 Act with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 2.4, it being understood that (1) any references in these bylaws to the 1934 Act are not intended to, and will not, limit any requirements applicable to nominations or proposals as to any other business to be considered pursuant to this Section 2.4; and (2) compliance with clause (4) of Section 2.4(a)(i) and with Section 2.4(b) are the exclusive means for a stockholder to make nominations or submit other business (other than as provided in Section 2.4(c)(vii)).

(vii)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.4, the notice requirements set forth in these bylaws with respect to the proposal of any business pursuant to this Section 2.4 will be deemed to be satisfied by a stockholder if (1) such stockholder has submitted a proposal to the Company in compliance with Rule 14a-8 under the 1934 Act; and (2) such stockholder’s proposal has been included in a proxy statement that has been prepared by the Company to solicit proxies for the meeting of stockholders. Subject to Rule 14a-8 and other applicable rules and regulations under the 1934 Act, nothing in these bylaws will be construed to permit any stockholder, or give any stockholder the right, to include or have disseminated or described in the Company’s proxy statement any nomination of a director or any other business proposal.

2.5 Notice of Stockholders’ Meetings.

Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a notice of the meeting shall be given which shall state the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting, the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, if such date is different from the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Except as otherwise provided in the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws, the notice of any meeting of stockholders shall be given not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting.

Unless otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws, the holders of a majority of the voting power of the capital stock of the Company issued and outstanding and entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at all meetings of the stockholders. Where a separate vote by a class or series or classes or series is required, a majority of the 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, except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws.

If, however, such quorum is not present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, then either (a) the chairperson of the meeting, or (b) the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum is present or represented. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum is present or represented, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the original meeting.

E-9

2.7 Adjourned Meeting; Notice.

When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, unless these bylaws otherwise require, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time, place, if any, thereof, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the Company may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. If after the adjournment a new record date for stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the Board of Directors shall fix a new record date for notice of such adjourned meeting in accordance with Section 213(a) of the DGCL and Section 2.11 of these bylaws, and shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such adjourned meeting as of the record date fixed for notice of such adjourned meeting.

2.8 Conduct of Business.

The chairperson of any meeting of stockholders shall determine the order of business and the procedure at the meeting, including such regulation of the manner of voting and the conduct of business and discussion as seem to the chairperson in order. The chairperson of any meeting of stockholders shall be designated by the Board of Directors; in the absence of such designation, the chairperson of the Board of Directors, if any, or the chief executive officer (in the absence of the chairperson of the Board of Directors) or the president (in the absence of the chairperson of the Board of Directors and the chief executive officer), or in their absence any other executive officer of the Company, shall serve as chairperson of the stockholder meeting. The chairperson of any meeting of stockholders shall have the power to adjourn the meeting to another place, if any, date or time, whether or not a quorum is present.

2.9 Voting.

(a)  The stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.11 of these bylaws, subject to Section 217 (relating to voting rights of fiduciaries, pledgors and joint owners of stock) and Section 218 (relating to voting trusts and other voting agreements) of the DGCL.

(b)  Except as may be otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws, each stockholder shall be entitled to one (1) vote for each share of capital stock held by such stockholder.

Except as otherwise required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the voting power of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. Where a separate vote by a class or series or classes or series is required, in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of the majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of such class or series or classes or series present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of such class or series or classes or series, except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation, these bylaws or the rules of the stock exchange on which the securities of the Company are listed.

2.10   Stockholder Action By Written Consent Without A Meeting.

Subject to the rights of holders of preferred stock of the Company, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Company must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company and may not be effected by any consent in writing by such stockholders.

2.11   Record Dates.

(a)  In order that the Company may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board of Directors 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 of Directors and which record date shall not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting. If the Board of Directors 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 of Directors 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.

(b)  If no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of and 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.

E-10

(c)  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 of Directors 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 with the provisions of Section 213 of the DGCL and this Section 2.11 at the adjourned meeting.

(d)  In order that the Company may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or the stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors 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 be not more than sixty (60) days prior to such action. If no 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 of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.

2.12   Proxies.

Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders, or such stockholder’s authorized officer, director, employee or agent, may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy authorized by a document or by a transmission permitted by law filed in accordance with the procedure established for the meeting, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three (3) years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. The authorization of a person to act as a proxy may be documented, signed and delivered in accordance with Section 116 of the DGCL; provided that such authorization shall set forth, or be delivered with information enabling the Company to determine, the identity of the stockholder granting such authorization. The revocability of a proxy that states on its face that it is irrevocable shall be governed by the provisions of Section 212 of the DGCL.

2.13   List of Stockholders Entitled To Vote.

The Company shall prepare, at least ten (10) 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 (10) days before the meeting date, 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. The Company shall not be required to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. 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 (10) days prior to the meeting: (a) 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 (b) during ordinary business hours, at the Company’s principal place of business. In the event that the Company determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Company may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Company. 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 examined by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then such 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.

2.14   Inspectors of Election.

Before any meeting of stockholders, the Company shall appoint an inspector or inspectors of election to act at the meeting or its adjournment and make a written report thereof. The Company may designate one (1) or more persons as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If any person appointed as inspector or any alternate fails to appear or fails or refuses to act, then the chairperson of the meeting shall appoint a person to fill that vacancy. Such inspectors shall:

(a)  ascertain the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each;

(b)  determine the shares represented at the meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots;

(c)  count all votes and ballots;

E-11

(d)  determine and retain for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspector(s); and

(e)  certify its or their determination of the number of shares represented at the meeting, and its or their count of all votes and ballots.

Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of the duties of inspector, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspection with strict impartiality and according to the best of such inspector’s ability. Any report or certificate made by the inspectors of election is prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. The inspectors of election may appoint such persons to assist them in performing their duties as they determine. In determining the validity and counting of proxies and ballots cast at any meeting of stockholders of the Company, the inspectors may consider such information as is permitted by applicable law. No person who is a candidate for an office at an election may serve as an inspector at such election.

2.15   Virtual Meeting.

The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, determine that stockholder meetings shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication in accordance with Section 211(a)(2) of the DGCL. If authorized by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, and subject to such guidelines and procedures as the Board of Directors may adopt, stockholders and proxy holders not physically present at a meeting of stockholders may, by means of remote communication (a) participate in a meeting of stockholders; and (b) be deemed present in person and vote at a meeting of stockholders whether such meeting is to be held at a designated place or solely by means of remote communication, provided that (i) the Company 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 or proxy holder; (ii) the Company shall implement reasonable measures to provide such stockholders and proxy holders a reasonable opportunity to participate in the meeting and to vote on matters submitted to the stockholders, including an opportunity to read or hear the proceedings of the meeting substantially concurrently with such proceedings; and (iii) if any stockholder or proxy holder 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 Company.

2.16   Delivery to the Company.

Whenever this Article II requires one or more persons (including a record or beneficial owner of stock) to deliver a document or information to the Company or any officer, employee or agent thereof (including any notice, request, questionnaire, revocation, representation or other document or agreement), unless the Company otherwise provides, such document or information shall be in writing exclusively (and not in an electronic transmission) and shall be delivered exclusively by hand (including, without limitation, overnight courier service) or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, and the Company shall not be required to accept delivery of any document not in such written form or so delivered.

The Board of Directors shall consist of one (1) or more members, each of whom shall be a natural person. Unless the Certificate of Incorporation fixes the number of directors, the number of directors shall be determined from time to time by resolution of a majority of the Whole Board. No reduction of the authorized number of directors shall have the effect of removing any director before that director’s term of office expires.

3.3  Election, Qualification and Term of Office of Directors.

Except as provided in Section 3.4 of these bylaws, each director, including a director elected to fill a vacancy, shall hold office until the expiration of the term for which elected and until such director’s successor is elected and qualified or until such director’s earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal.

If so provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, the directors of the Company shall be divided into three (3) classes.

3.4 Resignation and Vacancies.

Any director may resign at any time upon notice given in writing or by electronic transmission to the Company. A resignation is effective when the resignation is delivered unless the resignation specifies a later effective date or an effective date determined upon the happening of an event or events. A resignation which is conditioned upon the director failing to receive a specified vote for reelection as a director may provide that it is irrevocable. Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws, when one or more directors resign from the Board of Directors, effective at a future date, a majority of the directors then in office, including those who have so resigned, shall have power to fill such vacancy or vacancies, the vote thereon to take effect when such resignation or resignations shall become effective.

Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws or permitted in the specific case by resolution of the Board of Directors, and subject to the rights of holders of Preferred Stock, vacancies and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors elected by all of the stockholders having the right to vote as a single class may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, and not by stockholders. If the directors are divided into classes, a person so chosen 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 have been duly elected and qualified.

3.5 Place of Meetings; Meetings By Telephone.

The Board of Directors may hold meetings, both regular and special, either within or outside the State of Delaware.

Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws, members of the Board of Directors may participate in a meeting of the Board of Directors by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at the meeting.

3.6 Regular Meetings.

Regular meetings of the Board of Directors may be held without notice at such time and at such place as shall from time to time be determined by the Board of Directors.

3.7 Special Meetings; Notice.

If the notice is (i) delivered personally by hand, by courier or by telephone, (ii) sent by facsimile, (iii) sent by electronic mail or (iv) otherwise given by electronic transmission, it shall be delivered, sent or otherwise directed to each director, as applicable, at least twenty-four (24) hours before the time of the holding of the meeting.

Any oral notice may be communicated to the director. The notice need not specify the place of the meeting (if the meeting is to be held at the Company’s principal executive office) nor the purpose of the meeting, unless required by statute.

E-13

3.8 Quorum; Voting.

At all meetings of the Board of Directors, a majority of the Whole Board shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.

Notice of any meeting of stockholders shall be given in the manner set forth in the DGCL.

7.2 Notice To Stockholders Sharing an Address.

Except as otherwise prohibited under the DGCL, without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders, any notice to stockholders given by the Company under the provisions 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. Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice to the Company. Any stockholder who fails to object in writing to the Company, within sixty (60) days of having been given written notice by the Company of its intention to send the single notice, shall be deemed to have consented to receiving such single written notice. This Section 7.2 shall not apply to Sections 164, 296, 311, 312 or 324 of the DGCL.

7.3 Notice To Person With Whom Communication Is Unlawful.

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 which 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 Company is such as to require the filing of a certificate under the DGCL, 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.

7.4 Waiver of Notice.

Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of 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. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders need be specified in any written waiver of notice or any waiver by electronic transmission unless so required by the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws.

ARTICLE VIII – INDEMNIFICATION

8.1 Indemnification of Directors and Officers In Third Party Proceedings.

Subject to the other provisions of this Article VIII, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as now or hereinafter in effect, any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding”) (other than an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Company, or is or was a director or officer of the Company serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such Proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any Proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that such person’s conduct was unlawful.

E-18

8.2 Indemnification of Directors and Officers In Actions By Or In The Right of The Company.

Subject to the other provisions of this Article VIII, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as now or hereinafter in effect, any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Company, or is or was a director or officer of the Company serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such Proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company; except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

8.3 Successful Defense.

To the extent that a present or former director or officer (for purposes of this Section 8.3 only, as such term is defined in Section 145(c)(1) of the DGCL) of the Company has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding described in Section 8.1 or Section 8.2, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith. The Company may indemnify any other person who is not a present or former director or officer of the Company against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person to the extent he or she has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any suit or proceeding described in Section 8.1 or Section 8.2, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein.

8.5 Advanced Payment of Expenses.

(a)  Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by an officer or director of the Company in defending any Proceeding shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding upon receipt of a written request therefor (together with documentation reasonably evidencing such expenses) and an undertaking by or on behalf of the person to repay such amounts if it shall ultimately be determined that the person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article VIII or the DGCL. Such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by former directors and officers or other employees and agents of the Company or by persons serving at the request of the Company as directors, officers, employees or agents of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the Company deems appropriate. The right to advancement of expenses shall not apply to any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) for which indemnity is excluded pursuant to these bylaws but shall apply to any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) referenced in Section 8.6(b) or Section 8.6(c) prior to a determination that the person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company.

(b)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise determined pursuant to Section 8.8, no advance shall be made by the Company to an officer of the Company (except by reason of the fact that such officer is or was a director of the Company, in which event this paragraph shall not apply) in any Proceeding if a determination is reasonably and promptly made (a) by a vote of the directors who are not parties to such Proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (b) by a committee of such directors designated by the vote of the majority of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (c) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that facts known to the decision-making party at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company.

E-19

8.6 Limitation On Indemnification.

Subject to the requirements in Section 8.3 and the DGCL, the Company shall not be obligated to indemnify any person pursuant to this Article VIII in connection with any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding):

The Company shall indemnify such person against any and all expenses that are actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with any action for indemnification or advancement of expenses from the Company under this Article VIII to the extent such person is successful in such action, and to the extent not prohibited by law. In any such suit, the Company shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, have the burden of proving that the claimant is not entitled to the requested indemnification or advancement of expenses.

8.8 Non-Exclusivity of Rights.

The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article VIII shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the Certificate of Incorporation or any statute, bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

8.12   Certain Definitions.

1. Warrants.

a. Form of Warrant. This Warrant, together with all of the other warrants to purchase Common Stock (such shares of Common Stock, the “Warrant Shares”) issued pursuant to the Other Subscription Agreements, including any warrants issued upon the transfer of such warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”), shall be issued in certificated form.

b. Registration.

(i) Warrant Register. The Company shall maintain books (the “Warrant Register”), for the registration of original issuance and the registration of transfer of this Warrant. Upon the initial issuance of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and register this Warrant in the name of the Holder. The Company shall provide 30 days’ prior written notice to the Holder of any appointment of or change in warrant agent and the new warrant agent’s contact information, including if the Company shall itself directly maintain the Warrant Register after a third-party warrant agent has been appointed.

This Warrant shall be signed by the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary or other principal officer of the Company. In the event the person whose signature has been placed upon this Warrant shall have ceased to serve in the capacity in which such person signed the Warrant before such Warrant is issued, it may be issued with the same effect as if he or she had not ceased to be such at the date of issuance.

(ii) Registered Holder. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Warrant, the Company may deem and treat the person in whose name such Warrant is registered in the Warrant Register (the “Registered Holder”) as the absolute owner of such Warrant and of each Warrant represented thereby (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing on any physical certificate made by anyone other than the Company), for the purpose of any exercise thereof, and for all other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

(iii) Registration of Transfer. Subject to compliance with the legend set forth on the face of this Warrant, the Company shall register the valid transfer, in whole or in part, from time to time, of this Warrant upon the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant for transfer and a duly completed and executed written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly executed by the Registered Holder or its agent or attorney. Upon any such transfer, a new Warrant representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants shall be issued and the old Warrant shall be cancelled by the Company. Upon any partial transfer, the Company shall at its expense issue and deliver to the Registered Holder a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the Registered Holder, which shall be exercisable for such number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which rights under this Warrant were not so transferred. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Registered Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Registered Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Registered Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within two (2) Trading Days of the date on which the Registered Holder delivers a duly completed and executed written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B to the Company assigning this Warrant in full.

(iv) Transferability. All or a portion of this Warrant may be transferred, assigned, or sold with written notification to the Company and (if applicable) third-party warrant agent (in the form of Exhibit B). If a portion of this Warrant is transferred, assigned, or sold, the Registered Holder shall specify the quantity retained by the Registered Holder, and quantity transferred to the Transferee (as defined in Exhibit B).

c. Procedure for Surrender of Warrants. This Warrant may be surrendered to the Company, together with a written request for exchange or transfer pursuant to Section 1b.(iv) hereof, and thereupon the Company shall issue in exchange therefor one or more new Warrants as requested by the Registered Holder of the Warrants so surrendered, representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants; provided, however, that if the Warrant so surrendered bears a restrictive legend, the Company shall not cancel such Warrant and issue new Warrants in exchange thereof until the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company stating that such transfer may be made and indicating whether the new Warrants must also bear a restrictive legend.

2. Terms and Exercise of Warrants.

a. Warrant Price. This Warrant shall entitle the Registered Holder, subject to the provisions hereof, to purchase from the Company the number of shares of Common Stock set forth above, at the price of $10.00 per share, subject to the adjustments provided in Section 3 hereof. The term “Warrant Price” as used in this Warrant shall mean the price per share of each Warrant Share that may be purchased at the time the Warrant is exercised.

b. Duration of Warrants. A Warrant may be exercised only during the period (the “Exercise Period”) commencing on the Original Issue Date, and terminating at 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the date that is five (5) years after the Original Issue Date; provided, however, that the exercise of any Warrant shall be subject to the satisfaction of any applicable conditions set forth in this Warrant. Each outstanding Warrant not exercised on or before the Expiration Date shall become void, and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under such outstanding Warrant shall cease at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Expiration Date.

c. Exercise of Warrants.

(i) Payment. Subject to the provisions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder hereof, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the initial issuance date during the Exercise Period, by delivery of a duly executed PDF copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Warrant Exercise attached hereto as Exhibit A, duly executed, and by paying in full the Warrant Price for each full Warrant Share as to which this Warrant is exercised, the exchange of this Warrant for Warrant Shares and the issuance of such Warrant Shares in lawful money of the United States, by (i) wire transfer or in good certified check or good bank draft payable to the Company or (ii) or by “cashless exercise” in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) below. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Registered Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Registered Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Registered Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within five (5) Trading Days of the date the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise Form within one (1) trading day of receipt of such notice. The Registered Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

(1) Cashless Exercise. If at the time of exercise hereof following the one-year anniversary of the Form 10 Disclosure Filing Date (as defined below) there is no effective registration statement registering the Warrant Shares, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Registered Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Registered Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:

(A) =
as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Registered Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the Bid Price of the Common Stock on the principal Stock Exchange as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) as of the time of the Registered Holder’s execution of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice

3

of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a) hereof or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both executed and delivered pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;

(B) =
the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and

(X) =
the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of the portion of this Warrant specified in the Notice of Exercise in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.

If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the holding period of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Warrant. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this subsection 2.3.1(a).

“Bid Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Stock Exchange, the bid price of the Common Stock for the time in question (or the nearest preceding date) on the Stock Exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Stock Exchange, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Purchasers of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

“VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Stock Exchange, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Stock Exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Stock Exchange, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Purchasers of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

“Form 10 Disclosure Filing Date” means the date on which the Company shall file with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K (or any other applicable form) that includes current “Form 10 information” (within the meaning of Rule 144) reflecting the Company’s status as an entity that is no longer an issuer described in paragraph (i)(1)(i) of Rule 144.

(2) Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Registered Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Registered Holder or in such name or names

4

as may be directed by the Registered Holder; provided, however, that, in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Registered Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly executed by the Registered Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.

(ii) Issuance of Warrant Shares on Exercise. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant and the clearance of the funds in payment of the Warrant Price (if payment is pursuant to subsection (i)), the Company shall issue to the Registered Holder a book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, for the number of shares of Warrant Shares to which he, she or it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by him, her or it, and if this Warrant shall not have been exercised in full, a new countersigned Warrant for the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant shall not have been exercised. If at the time of exercise of this Warrant, the Warrant Shares are not registered for resale pursuant to the Securities Act then such purchased Warrant Shares issued to a Registered Holder upon payment of the Warrant Price pursuant to subsection (i) shall bear a restrictive legend in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C. Warrants may not be exercised by, or securities issued to, any Registered Holder in any state in which such exercise would be unlawful. In the event that a Registered Holder reasonably determines that a consent, approval or authorization of, or designation, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Entity under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or under any other applicable antitrust or competition Laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction or any other merger control or investment Laws (collectively, “Antitrust Laws”) is required, then the making of any appropriate filings, the taking or causing to be taken of any required actions, and the expiration or the termination of the applicable waiting period, review period or comparable period, in each case as applicable under any such applicable Antitrust Laws, shall be a condition to the issuance of the Common Stock and the Company shall provide all reasonable assistance requested by the Registered Holder in connection with any required filings or actions under the applicable Antitrust Laws. The Company shall not take any action that would cause a Registered Holder’s ownership percentage of voting securities of the Company (as defined or interpreted under the applicable Antitrust Laws) to increase without providing notice to such Registered Holders for each to determine whether any filing, consent, approval or authorization of, or designation, declaration or filing with any Governmental Entity could be triggered under the applicable Antitrust Laws by the proposed Company action. If any Registered Holder determines that the proposed Company action requires clearance, approval or authorization under the applicable Antitrust Laws, then the obtaining of required clearance, approval or authorization, or the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period, review period or comparable period, as applicable, under the applicable Antitrust Laws shall be a condition to the Company taking its proposed action. If at any time a Registered Holder determines that it has a filing requirement or other requirement or obligation under the applicable Antitrust Laws, then the Company shall provide all reasonable assistance to such Registered Holder as reasonably requested by that Registered Holder in connection with any required filings or actions to be made or taken under the applicable Antitrust Laws. “Governmental Entity” as used in this subsection 2.3.2 shall mean any United States or non-United States (a) federal, state, local, municipal or other government, (b) governmental or quasi-governmental entity of any nature (including any governmental agency, branch, department, official, or entity and any court or other tribunal) or (c) body exercising or entitled to exercise any administrative, executive, judicial, legislative, police, regulatory, or taxing authority or power of any nature, including notified bodies as well as any arbitral tribunal (public or private). “Law” as used in this subsection 2.3.2 means any federal, state, local, foreign, national or supranational statute, law (including common law and, if applicable, fiduciary or similar duties), act, statute, ordinance, treaty, rule, code, regulation or other binding directive or guidance issued, promulgated or enforced by a Governmental Entity having jurisdiction over a given matter.

(iii) Valid Issuance. All Warrant Shares issued upon the proper exercise of this Warrant shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

(iv) Date of Issuance. Each person in whose name any book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, Warrant Shares are issued shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares of Common Stock on the date on which this Warrant was surrendered and payment of the

5

Warrant Price was made, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company or book-entry system of the Company’s transfer agent are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such shares of Common Stock at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books or book-entry system are open.

(v) Delivery of Certificates upon Exercise. Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Registered Holder by crediting the account of the Registered Holder’s or its designee’s prime broker with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Registered Holder or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Registered Holder without volume or manner of sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Warrants) (and the Registered Holder and its broker provide the Company and its transfer agent with customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company and its transfer agent in connection therewith), and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Registered Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Registered Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Registered Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is by the date that is the earliest of (i) two (2) Trading Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, (ii) one (1) Trading Day after delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company and (iii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Registered Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following delivery of the Notice of Exercise. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Registered Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the second Trading Day after Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Registered Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after the Warrant Share Delivery Date) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Stock Exchange with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise.

(vi) Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Registered Holder a certificate or the certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2.3.4 by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Registered Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

(vii) Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Registered Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Registered Holder a certificate or the certificates representing the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.3.4 above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Registered Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Registered Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Registered Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Registered Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Registered Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Registered Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Registered Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the

6

Registered Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Registered Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Registered Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Registered Holder $1,000. The Registered Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Registered Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

3. Adjustments.

a. Stock Dividends.

(i) Split-Ups. If after the Original Issue Date, and subject to the provisions of 3.f below, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or by a split-up of shares of Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of Warrant Shares issuable on exercise of this Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding shares of Common Stock. A rights offering to holders of the Common Stock entitling holders to purchase shares of Common Stock at a price less than the Fair Market Value (as defined in this subsection 3.a(i)) shall be deemed a stock dividend of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for the Common Stock) and (ii) one (1) minus the quotient of (x) the price per share of Common Stock paid in such rights offering divided by (y) the Fair Market Value. For purposes of this subsection 3.a(i), (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock, in determining the price payable for shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) “Fair Market Value” means the volume weighted average price of the shares of Common Stock as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the Common Stock trades on the Stock Exchange, without the right to receive such rights.

(ii) Extraordinary Dividends. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired, shall pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of the shares of Common Stock on account of such Common Stock (or other shares of the Company’s capital stock into which this Warrant is convertible), other than (a) as described in subsection 3.a(i) above, or (b) Ordinary Cash Dividends (as defined below) (any such non-excluded event being referred to herein as an “Extraordinary Dividend”), then the Warrant Price shall be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such Extraordinary Dividend, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value (as determined by the board of directors of the Company, in good faith) of any securities or other assets paid on each share of Common Stock in respect of such Extraordinary Dividend. For purposes of this subsection 3.a(ii), “Ordinary Cash Dividends” means any cash dividend or cash distribution which, when combined on a per share basis, with the per share amounts of all other cash dividends and cash distributions paid on the Common Stock during the 365-day period ending on the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution (as adjusted to appropriately reflect any of the events referred to in other subsections of this Section 3 and excluding cash dividends or cash distributions that resulted in an adjustment to the Warrant Price or to the number of Warrant Shares issuable on exercise of this Warrant) does not exceed $0.50.

b. Aggregation of Shares. If after the Original Issue Date, and subject to the provisions of 3.f hereof, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse stock

7

split or reclassification of Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse stock split, reclassification or similar event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of this Warrant shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of Common Stock.

c. Adjustments in Exercise Price. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant is adjusted, as provided in subsection 3.a(i) or 3.b above, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted (to the nearest cent) by multiplying such Warrant Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall be the number of Warrant Shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock so purchasable immediately thereafter.

d. Replacement of Securities upon Reorganization, etc. In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than a change under subsections 3.a(i) or 3.a(ii) or 3.b hereof or that solely affects the par value of such Common Stock), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity or conversion of the Company as another entity (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another entity of the assets or other property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company is dissolved, the Registered Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in this Warrant and in lieu of the Common Stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the Registered Holder would have received if the Registered Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such event (the “Alternative Issuance”) and the Company shall not enter into any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance unless the successor or purchasing entity agrees to provide for delivery of such Alternative Issuance; If any reclassification or reorganization also results in a change in shares of Common Stock covered by subsection 3.a(i), then such adjustment shall be made pursuant to subsection 3.a(i), 3.b, 3.c and this 3.d. The provisions of this 3.d shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers or consolidations, sales or other transfers. In no event will the Warrant Price be reduced to less than the par value per share issuable upon exercise of the Warrant.

e. Notices of Changes in Warrant. Upon every adjustment of the Warrant Price or the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant, or upon the occurrence of any event specified in Sections a, b, c or d, the Company shall give written notice thereof to the Registered Holders, at the last address set forth for each such Registered Holder in the Warrant Register, of the record date or the effective date of the event. The notice shall state the adjusted Warrant Price, if applicable, and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable at such price upon the exercise of a Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such event.

f. No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Warrant to the contrary, the Company shall not issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant. If, by reason of any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3, the Registered Holder would be entitled, upon the exercise of this Warrant, to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company shall, round down to the nearest whole number the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Registered Holder.

4. Other Provisions Relating to Rights of Holders of Warrants.

a. No Rights as Stockholder. This Warrant does not entitle the Registered Holder to any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends, or other distributions, exercise any preemptive rights to vote or to consent or to receive notice as shareholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter.

b. Lost, Stolen, Mutilated, or Destroyed Warrants. If this Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed, the Company may on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may in its sole discretion impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like

8

denomination, tenor, and date as this Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilate or destroyed. Any such new Warrant shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

c. Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available a number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock that shall be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants issued pursuant to the Subscription Agreement. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Stock Exchange upon which the Common Stock may be listed.

5. Miscellaneous Provisions.

a. Payment of Taxes. The Company shall from time to time promptly pay all taxes and charges that may be imposed upon the Company in respect of the issuance or delivery of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the Warrants, but the Company shall not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes in respect of the ownership of the Warrants or such underlying Common Stock.

b. Successors. All the covenants and provisions of this Warrant by or for the benefit of the Company or the Registered Holder shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

c. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given when so delivered if by hand or overnight delivery or if sent by certified mail or private courier service within five (5) days after deposit of such notice, postage prepaid, addressed as follows: (i) if to the Registered Holder, at his, her or its address as shown in the Warrant Register; and (ii) if to the Company, at its principal office, to the attention of the Chief Financial Officer. Any party may change its address for purposes of this section by giving the other party written notice of the new address in the manner set forth above.

d. Applicable Law. The validity, interpretation, and performance of the Warrants shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. The Company and the Registered Holder hereby agree that any action, proceeding or claim against either party arising out of or relating in any way to this Warrant shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of Delaware, and irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be exclusive. The Company and the Registered Holder hereby waive any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient forum.

e. Persons Having Rights under this Warrant. Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to confer upon, or give to, any person or corporation other than the parties hereto any right, remedy, or claim under or by reason of this Warrant or of any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise, or agreement hereof. All covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises, and agreements contained in this Warrant shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto.

f. Effect of Headings. The section headings herein are for convenience only and are not part of this Warrant and shall not affect the interpretation thereof.

g. Amendments. This Warrant may only be amended or modified by written instrument executed by both the Company and the Registered Holder.

h. Severability. This Warrant shall be deemed severable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision hereof shall not affect the validity or enforceability of this Warrant or of any other term or provision hereof. Furthermore, in lieu of any such invalid or unenforceable term or provision, the parties hereto intend that there shall be added as a part of this Warrant a provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be valid and enforceable.

i. Complete Agreement. This Warrant (together with the Subscription Agreement) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

9

j. Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Registered Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Registered Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Registered Holder for the purchase price of any Warrant Shares or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

k. Remedies. The Registered Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

l. Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Registered Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that all rights hereunder terminate on the Termination Date. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant or the Subscription Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Registered Holder, the Company shall pay to the Registered Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Registered Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

m. Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a trading day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding trading day.

Pre-Funded Warrant To Purchase Common Stock

Warrant No.:

Date of Issuance: [   ], 2024 (“Issuance Date”)

Adagio Medical Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, [BUYER], the registered holder hereof or its permitted assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined below) then in effect, upon exercise of this Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (including any Warrants to Purchase Common Stock issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, the “Warrant”), at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date up to      (subject to adjustment as provided herein) fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (as defined below) (the “Warrant Shares”, and such number of Warrant Shares, the “Warrant Number”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Warrant shall have the meanings set forth in the Subscription Agreement, dated as of [  ], 2024 (the “Subscription Agreement”), pursuant to which this Warrant has been issued.

1. EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

(a) Mechanics of Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including, without limitation, the limitations set forth in Section 1(f)), this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder on any day on or after the Issuance Date (an “Exercise Date”), in whole or in part, by delivery (whether via electronic mail or otherwise) of a written notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), of the Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant. Within one (1) Trading Day following an exercise of this Warrant as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver payment to the Company of an amount equal to the Exercise Price in effect on the date of such exercise multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant was so exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) in cash or via wire transfer of immediately available funds if the Holder did not notify the Company in such Exercise Notice that such exercise was made pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined herein). The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original of this Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder. Execution and delivery of an Exercise Notice with respect to less than all of the Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original of this Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares. Execution and delivery of an Exercise Notice for all of the then-remaining Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original of this Warrant after delivery of the Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms hereof. On or before the first (1^st) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received an Exercise Notice, the Company shall transmit by facsimile or electronic mail an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of such Exercise Notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”), which confirmation shall constitute an instruction to the Transfer Agent to process such Exercise Notice in accordance with the terms herein. On or before the second (2nd) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received such Exercise Notice (or such earlier date as required pursuant to the 1934 Act or other applicable law, rule or regulation for the settlement of a trade of such Warrant Shares initiated on the applicable Exercise Date), the Company shall (X) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, or a similar organization, upon the request of the Holder, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system, or (Y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (“FAST”), upon the request of the Holder, issue and deliver (via reputable overnight courier) to the address as specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled pursuant to such exercise. Upon delivery of an Exercise Notice, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares (as the case may be). If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1(a) and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon an exercise and upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company by the Holder, then, at the request of the Holder, the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than two (2) Business Days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised. No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp, issuance and similar taxes, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent) that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except in the case where an exercise of this Warrant is validly made pursuant to a Cashless Exercise, the Company’s failure to deliver Warrant Shares to the Holder on or prior to the later of (i) two (2) Trading Days after receipt of the applicable Exercise Notice (or such earlier date as required pursuant to the 1934 Act or other applicable law, rule or regulation for the settlement of a trade of such Warrant Shares initiated on the applicable Exercise Date) and (ii) one (1) Trading Day after the Company’s receipt of the Aggregate Exercise Price (or valid notice of a Cashless Exercise) (such later date, the “Share Delivery Date”) shall not be deemed to be a breach of this Warrant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Warrant or the Subscription Agreement, after the effective date of the Registration Statement (as defined in the Subscription Agreement), the Company

2

shall cause the Transfer Agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to the Holder (or its designee) in connection with any resale of Warrant Shares with respect to which the Holder has entered into a contract for sale, and delivered a copy of the prospectus included as part of the particular Registration Statement to the extent applicable, and for which the Holder has not yet settled. From the Issuance Date through and including the Expiration Date, the Company shall maintain a transfer agent that participates in FAST.

(b) Exercise Price. For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means $0.01, subject to adjustment as provided herein.

(c) Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities. If the Company shall fail, for any reason or for no reason, on or prior to the Share Delivery Date, either (I) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, to issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled and register such Warrant Shares on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in FAST, to credit the balance account of the Holder or the Holder’s designee with DTC for such number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise of this Warrant (as the case may be) or (II) if a Registration Statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares that are the subject of the Exercise Notice (the “Unavailable Warrant Shares”) is not available for the resale of such Unavailable Warrant Shares and the Company fails to promptly, but in no event later than as required pursuant to the Subscription Agreement (x) so notify the Holder and (y) deliver the Warrant Shares electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian system (the event described in the immediately foregoing clause (II) is hereinafter referred as a “Notice Failure” and together with the event described in clause (I) above, a “Delivery Failure”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, (X) the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder on each day after the Share Delivery Date and during such Delivery Failure an amount equal to 1% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock not issued to the Holder on or prior to the Share Delivery Date and to which the Holder is entitled, multiplied by (B) any trading price of the Common Stock selected by the Holder in writing as in effect at any time during the period beginning on the applicable Exercise Date and ending on the applicable Share Delivery Date, and (Y) the Holder, upon written notice to the Company, may void its Exercise Notice with respect to, and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Exercise Notice; provided that the voiding of an Exercise Notice shall not affect the Company’s obligations to make any payments which have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1(c) or otherwise. In addition to the foregoing, if on or prior to the Share Delivery Date either (I) the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, the Company shall fail to issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a certificate and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, the Transfer Agent shall fail to credit the balance account of the Holder or the Holder’s designee with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder or pursuant to the Company’s obligation pursuant to clause (ii) below or (II) a Notice Failure occurs, and if on or after such Share Delivery Date the Holder acquires (in an open market transaction, stock loan or otherwise) shares of Common Stock corresponding to all or any portion of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise that the Holder is entitled to receive from the Company and has not received from the Company in connection with such Delivery Failure or Notice Failure, as applicable (a “Buy-In”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, stock loan costs and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so acquired (including, without limitation, by any other Person in respect, or on behalf, of the Holder) (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to so issue and deliver such certificate (and to issue such shares of Common Stock) or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) (and to issue such Warrant Shares) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to so issue and deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such Warrant Shares or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number

3

of Warrant Shares multiplied by (B) the lowest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date of the applicable Exercise Notice and ending on the date of such issuance and payment under this clause (ii) (the “Buy-In Payment Amount”). Nothing shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock (or to electronically deliver such shares of Common Stock) upon the exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof. While this Warrant is outstanding, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to participate in FAST. In addition to the foregoing rights, (i) if the Company fails to deliver the applicable number of Warrant Shares upon an exercise pursuant to Section 1(a) by the applicable Share Delivery Date, then the Holder shall have the right to rescind such exercise in whole or in part and retain and/or have the Company return, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Exercise Notice; provided that the rescission of an exercise shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1(c) or otherwise, and (ii) if a registration statement covering the issuance or resale of the Warrant Shares that are subject to an Exercise Notice is not available for the issuance or resale, as applicable, of such Warrant Shares and the Holder has submitted an Exercise Notice prior to receiving notice of the non-availability of such registration statement and the Company has not already delivered the Warrant Shares underlying such Exercise Notice electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit / Withdrawal At Custodian system, the Holder shall have the option, by delivery of notice to the Company, to (x) rescind such Exercise Notice in whole or in part and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Exercise Notice; provided that the rescission of an Exercise Notice shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1(c) or otherwise, and/or (y) switch some or all of such Exercise Notice from a cash exercise to a Cashless Exercise.

(d) Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary (other than Section 1(f) below), if, at any time of exercise hereof, a Registration Statement (as defined in the Subscription Agreement) is not effective (or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use) for the resale by the Holder of all of the Warrant Shares, then the Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the “Net Number” of Warrant Shares determined according to the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):

Net Number =	(A x B) - (A x C)
	B
For purposes of the foregoing formula:

A = the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised.

B = as elected by the Holder: (i) the VWAP of the shares of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Exercise Notice if such Exercise Notice is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b)(64) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Exercise Notice or (z) the Bid Price of the shares of Common Stock as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Exercise Notice if such Exercise Notice is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter pursuant to Section 1(c) hereof, or (iii) the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Exercise Notice if the date of such Exercise Notice is a Trading Day and such Exercise Notice is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day.

C = the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise.

4

If the Warrant Shares are issued in a Cashless Exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the 1933 Act, the Warrant Shares take on the registered characteristics of the Warrants being exercised.

(e) [RESERVED].

(f) Limitations on Exercises. The Company shall not effect the exercise of any portion of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Warrant and any such exercise shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, the Holder together with the other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and the other Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock held by the Holder and all other Attribution Parties plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of the other Attribution Parties and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company beneficially owned by the Holder or any other Attribution Party subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 1(f). For purposes of this Section 1(f), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act. For purposes of determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may acquire upon the exercise of this Warrant without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent, if any, setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the “Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If the Company receives an Exercise Notice from the Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall (i) notify the Holder in writing of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such Exercise Notice would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 1(f), to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder must notify the Company of a reduced number of Warrant Shares to be acquired pursuant to such Exercise Notice (the number of shares by which such purchase is reduced, the “Reduction Shares”) and (ii) as soon as reasonably practicable, the Company shall return to the Holder any exercise price paid by the Holder for the Reduction Shares. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day confirm orally and in writing or by electronic mail to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of shares of Common Stock to the Holder upon exercise of this Warrant results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (as determined under Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act), the number of shares so issued by which the Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficial ownership exceeds the Maximum Percentage (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. As soon as reasonably practicable after the issuance of the Excess Shares has been deemed null and void, the Company shall return to the Holder the exercise price paid by the Holder for the Excess Shares. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase (with such increase not effective until the sixty-first (61^st) day after delivery of such notice) or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 19.99% as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective until the sixty-first (61^st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and the other Attribution Parties. For purposes of clarity, the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of this Warrant in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1)

5

of the 1934 Act. No prior inability to exercise this Warrant pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of exercisability. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 1(f) to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph or any portion of this paragraph which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section 1(f) or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

(g) Reservation of Shares.

(i) Required Reserve Amount. So long as this Warrant remains outstanding, the Company shall at all times keep reserved for issuance under this Warrant a number of shares of Common Stock at least equal to 100% of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock as shall be necessary to satisfy the Company’s obligation to issue shares of Common Stock under this Warrant then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise) (the “Required Reserve Amount”); provided that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock reserved pursuant to this Section 1(g)(i) be reduced other than proportionally in connection with any exercise or redemption of this Warrant or such other event covered by Section 2(c) below.

(ii) Insufficient Authorized Shares. If, notwithstanding Section 1(g)(i), and not in limitation thereof, at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding, the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve the Required Reserve Amount (an “Authorized Share Failure”), then the Company shall immediately take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each stockholder with a proxy statement and shall use its best efforts to solicit its stockholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such time of an Authorized Share Failure, the Company is able to obtain the written consent of a majority of the shares of its issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock to approve the increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, the Company may satisfy this obligation by obtaining such consent and submitting for filing with the SEC an Information Statement on Schedule 14C. In the event that the Company is prohibited from issuing shares of Common Stock upon an exercise of this Warrant due to the failure by the Company to have sufficient shares of Common Stock available out of the authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (such unavailable number of shares of Common Stock, the “Authorization Failure Shares”), in lieu of delivering such Authorization Failure Shares to the Holder, the Company shall pay cash in exchange for the cancellation of such portion of this Warrant exercisable into such Authorization Failure Shares at a price equal to the sum of (i) the product of (x) such number of Authorization Failure Shares and (y) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date the Holder delivers the applicable Exercise Notice with respect to such Authorization Failure Shares to the Company and ending on the date of such issuance and payment under this Section 1(g)(ii); and (ii) to the extent the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Authorization Failure Shares, any Buy-In Payment Amount, brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any, of the Holder incurred in connection therewith. Nothing contained in this Section 1(g)(ii) shall limit any obligations of the Company under any provision of the Subscription Agreement.

2. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 2.

(a) Stock Dividends and Splits. Without limiting any provision of Section 2 or Section 4, if the Company, at any time on or after the date of the Subscription Agreement, (i) pays a stock dividend on one or more classes

6

of its then outstanding shares of Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its then outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares or (iii) combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its then outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this paragraph occurs during the period that an Exercise Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Exercise Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.

(b) Extraordinary Dividends. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired, shall pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of the shares of Common Stock on account of such Common Stock (or other shares of the Company’s capital stock into which this Warrant is convertible), other than (a) as described in subsection 2(a) above, or (b) Ordinary Cash Dividends (as defined below) (any such non-excluded event being referred to herein as an “Extraordinary Dividend”), then the Exercise Price shall be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such Extraordinary Dividend, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value (as determined by the board of directors of the Company, in good faith) of any securities or other assets paid on each share of Common Stock in respect of such Extraordinary Dividend. For purposes of this subsection 2(b), “Ordinary Cash Dividends” means any cash dividend or cash distribution which, when combined on a per share basis, with the per share amounts of all other cash dividends and cash distributions paid on the Common Stock during the 365-day period ending on the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution (as adjusted to appropriately reflect any of the events referred to in other subsections of this Section 2 and excluding cash dividends or cash distributions that resulted in an adjustment to the Warrant Price or to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of this Warrant) does not exceed $0.50.

(c) Number of Warrant Shares. Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section (c) or Section (b), the number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the adjusted number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment (without regard to any limitations on exercise contained herein).

(d) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 2(d) shall be made by rounding to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100^th of a share, as applicable. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issuance or sale of Common Stock.

(e) Voluntary Adjustment By Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Principal Market, the Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant, with the prior written consent of the Holder (as defined in the Subscription Agreement), reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the board of directors of the Company.

3. [RESERVED].

4. PURCHASE RIGHTS; FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS.

(a) Purchase Rights. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise of this Warrant, including without limitation, the Maximum Percentage) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the

7

grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to the extent of the Maximum Percentage (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right (and beneficial ownership) to the extent of any such excess) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such right (and any Purchase Right granted, issued or sold on such initial Purchase Right or on any subsequent Purchase Right held similarly in abeyance) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation).

(b) Fundamental Transactions. The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless (i) the Successor Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4(b) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder prior to such Fundamental Transaction, including agreements to deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant, including, without limitation, which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such adjustments to the number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction) and (ii) the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) is a publicly traded corporation whose common stock is quoted on or listed for trading on an Eligible Market. Upon the consummation of each Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation of each Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property (except such items still issuable under Section 4(a) above, which shall continue to be receivable thereafter)) issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant prior to the applicable Fundamental Transaction, such shares of publicly traded common stock (or its equivalent) of the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of the applicable Fundamental Transaction had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the applicable Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant), as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and without limiting Section 4(a) hereof, the Holder may elect, at its sole option, by delivery of written notice to the Company to waive this Section 4(b) to permit the Fundamental Transaction without the assumption of this Warrant. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of each Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to insure that the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon an exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction but prior to the Expiration Date, in lieu of the shares of the Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property (except such items still issuable under Section 4(a) above, which shall continue to be receivable thereafter)) issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of the applicable Fundamental Transaction had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the applicable Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant). Provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder.

8

(c) Application. The provisions of this Section 4(c) shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and Corporate Events and shall be applied as if this Warrant (and any such subsequent warrants) were fully exercisable and without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant (provided that the Holder shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of the Maximum Percentage, applied however with respect to shares of capital stock registered under the 1934 Act and thereafter receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (or any such other warrant)).

5. NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation (as in effect on the Issuance Date) Bylaws (as in effect on the Issuance Date) or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issuance or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, and will at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Warrant and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (a) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, and (b) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if after the sixty (60) calendar day anniversary of the Issuance Date, the Holder is not permitted to exercise this Warrant in full for any reason (other than pursuant to restrictions set forth in Section 1(f) hereof), the Company shall use its best efforts to promptly remedy such failure, including, without limitation, obtaining such consents or approvals as necessary to permit such exercise into shares of Common Stock.

6. WARRANT HOLDER NOT DEEMED A STOCKHOLDER. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Holder, solely in its capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of share capital of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in its capacity as the Holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares which it is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. Notwithstanding this Section 6, the Company shall provide the Holder with copies of the same notices and other information given to the stockholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the stockholders.

7. REISSUANCE OF WARRANTS.

(a) Transfer of Warrant. If this Warrant is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)), registered as the Holder may request, representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares being transferred by the Holder and, if less than the total number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant is being transferred, a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) to the Holder representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares not being transferred.

(b) Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant (as to which a written certification and the indemnification contemplated below shall suffice as such evidence), and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Company in customary and reasonable form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant.

(c) Exchangeable for Multiple Warrants. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new Warrant or Warrants (in accordance with Section 7(d))

9

representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant, and each such new Warrant will represent the right to purchase such portion of such Warrant Shares as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender; provided, however, no warrants for fractional shares of Common Stock shall be given.

(d) Issuance of New Warrants. Whenever the Company is required to issue a new Warrant pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, such new Warrant (i) shall be of like tenor with this Warrant, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant, the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant (or in the case of a new Warrant being issued pursuant to Section 7(a) or Section 7(c), the Warrant Shares designated by the Holder which, when added to the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the other new Warrants issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant), (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant which is the same as the Issuance Date, and (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Warrant.

8. NOTICES. Whenever notice is required to be given under this Warrant, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in accordance with Section 11(m) of the Subscription Agreement. The Company shall provide the Holder with prompt written notice of all actions taken pursuant to this Warrant (other than the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise in accordance with the terms hereof), including in reasonable detail a description of such action and the reason therefor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will give written notice to the Holder (i) immediately upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares, setting forth in reasonable detail, and certifying, the calculation of such adjustment(s), (ii) at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or takes a record (A) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the shares of Common Stock, or (B) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Fundamental Transaction, dissolution or liquidation, provided in each case that such information shall be made known to the public prior to or in conjunction with such notice being provided to the Holder, and (iii) at least ten (10) Trading Days prior to the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the SEC pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries provides material non-public information to the Holder that is not simultaneously filed in a Current Report on Form 8-K and the Holder has not agreed to receive such material non-public information, the Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Holder shall not have any duty of confidentiality to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates or agents with respect to, or a duty to any of the foregoing not to trade on the basis of, such material non-public information. It is expressly understood and agreed that the time of execution specified by the Holder in each Exercise Notice shall be definitive and may not be disputed or challenged by the Company.

9. [RESERVED].

10. ABSENCE OF TRADING AND DISCLOSURE RESTRICTIONS. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Holder is not a fiduciary or agent of the Company and that the Holder shall have no obligation to (a) maintain the confidentiality of any information provided by the Company or (b) refrain from trading any securities while in possession of such information in the absence of a written non-disclosure agreement signed by an officer of the Holder that explicitly provides for such confidentiality and trading restrictions. In the absence of such an executed, written non-disclosure agreement, the Company acknowledges that the Holder may freely trade in any securities issued by the Company, may possess and use any information provided by the Company in connection with such trading activity, and may disclose any such information to any third party.

11. AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. This Warrant may be modified or amended, or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and the Holder.

12. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Warrant is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Warrant so long as this Warrant as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal

10

obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

13. GOVERNING LAW. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Warrant shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. The Company hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to the Company at the address set forth in Section 9(f) of the Securities Purchase Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. The Company hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude the Holder from bringing suit or taking other legal action against the Company in any other jurisdiction to collect on the Company’s obligations to the Holder, to realize on any collateral or any other security for such obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of the Holder. THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS WARRANT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

14. CONSTRUCTION; HEADINGS. This Warrant shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and the Holder and shall not be construed against any Person as the drafter hereof. The headings of this Warrant are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Warrant.

15. [RESERVED].

16. REMEDIES, CHARACTERIZATION, OTHER OBLIGATIONS, BREACHES AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of the Holder to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Warrant. The Company covenants to the Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, exercises and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to specific performance and/or temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security. The Company shall provide all information and documentation to the Holder that is requested by the Holder to enable the Holder to confirm the Company’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this Warrant (including, without limitation, compliance with Section 1(f) hereof). The issuance of shares and certificates for shares as contemplated hereby upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder or such shares for any issuance tax or other costs in respect thereof, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other than the Holder or its agent on its behalf.

17. PAYMENT OF COLLECTION, ENFORCEMENT AND OTHER COSTS. If (a) this Warrant is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement or is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding or the holder otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under this Warrant or to enforce the provisions of this Warrant

Adagio Medical Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, [BUYER], the registered holder hereof or its permitted assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined below) then in effect, upon exercise of this Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (including any Warrants to Purchase Common Stock issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, the “Warrant”), at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, but not after 11:59 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration Date (as defined below), _________________¹ (subject to adjustment as provided herein) fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (as defined below) (the “Warrant Shares”, and such number of Warrant Shares, the “Warrant Number”).

1.EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

(a)Mechanics of Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including, without limitation, the limitations set forth in Section 1(f)), this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder on any day on or after the Issuance Date (an “Exercise Date”), in whole or in part, by delivery (whether via electronic mail or otherwise) of a written notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), of the Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant. Within one (1) Trading Day following an exercise of this Warrant as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver payment to the Company of an amount equal to the Exercise Price in effect on the date of such exercise multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant was so exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) in cash or via wire transfer of immediately available funds if the Holder did not notify the Company in such Exercise Notice that such exercise was made pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 1(d)). The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original of this Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder. Execution and delivery of an Exercise Notice with respect to less than all of the Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original of this Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares. Execution and delivery of an Exercise Notice for all of the then-remaining Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original of this Warrant after delivery of the Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms hereof. On or before the first (1^st) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received an Exercise Notice, the Company shall transmit by facsimile or electronic mail an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of such Exercise Notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”), which confirmation shall constitute an instruction to the Transfer Agent to process such Exercise Notice in accordance with the terms herein. On or before the second (2nd) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received such Exercise Notice (or such earlier date as required pursuant to the 1934 Act or other applicable law, rule or regulation for the settlement of a trade of such Warrant Shares initiated on the applicable Exercise Date), the Company shall (X) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, upon the request of the Holder, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system, or (Y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (“FAST”), upon the request of the Holder, issue and deliver (via reputable overnight courier) to the address as specified in the Exercise Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled pursuant to such exercise. Upon delivery of an Exercise Notice, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the Holder’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares (as the case may be). If this Warrant is submitted in connection with any exercise pursuant to this Section 1(a) and the number of Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant submitted for exercise is greater than the number of Warrant Shares being acquired upon an exercise and upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company by the Holder, then, at the request of the Holder, the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than two (2) Business Days after any exercise and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under this Warrant, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is exercised. No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp, issuance and similar taxes, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent) that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except in the case where an exercise of this Warrant is validly made pursuant to a Cashless Exercise, the Company’s failure to deliver Warrant Shares to the Holder on or prior to the later of (i) two (2) Trading Days after receipt of the applicable Exercise Notice (or such earlier date as required pursuant to the 1934 Act or other applicable law, rule or regulation for the settlement of a trade of such Warrant Shares initiated on the applicable Exercise Date) and (ii) one (1) Trading Day after the Company’s receipt of the Aggregate Exercise Price (or valid notice of a Cashless Exercise) (such later date, the “Share Delivery Date”) shall not be deemed to be a breach of this Warrant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Warrant or the Registration Rights Agreement, after the effective date of the Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) and prior to the Holder’s receipt of the notice of a Grace Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to the Holder (or its designee) in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) with respect to which the Holder has entered into a contract for sale, and delivered a copy of the prospectus included as part of the particular Registration Statement to the extent applicable, and for which the Holder has not yet settled. From the Issuance Date through and including the Expiration Date, the Company shall maintain a transfer agent that participates in FAST.

2

(b)Exercise Price. For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means $24.00, subject to adjustment as provided herein.

3

(c)Company’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities. If the Company shall fail, for any reason or for no reason, on or prior to the Share Delivery Date, either (I) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, to issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a certificate for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled and register such Warrant Shares on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in FAST, to credit the balance account of the Holder or the Holder’s designee with DTC for such number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise of this Warrant (as the case may be) or (II) if a Registration Statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares that are the subject of the Exercise Notice (the “Unavailable Warrant Shares”) is not available for the resale of such Unavailable Warrant Shares and the Company fails to promptly, but in no event later than as required pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement (x) so notify the Holder and (y) deliver the Warrant Shares electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian system (the event described in the immediately foregoing clause (II) is hereinafter referred as a “Notice Failure” and together with the event described in clause (I) above, a “Delivery Failure”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, (X) the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder on each day after the Share Delivery Date and during such Delivery Failure an amount equal to 1% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock not issued to the Holder on or prior to the Share Delivery Date and to which the Holder is entitled, multiplied by (B) any trading price of the Common Stock selected by the Holder in writing as in effect at any time during the period beginning on the applicable Exercise Date and ending on the applicable Share Delivery Date, and (Y) the Holder, upon written notice to the Company, may void its Exercise Notice with respect to, and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Exercise Notice; provided that the voiding of an Exercise Notice shall not affect the Company’s obligations to make any payments which have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1(c) or otherwise. In addition to the foregoing, if on or prior to the Share Delivery Date either (I) the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, the Company shall fail to issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a certificate and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, the Transfer Agent shall fail to credit the balance account of the Holder or the Holder’s designee with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder or pursuant to the Company’s obligation pursuant to clause (ii) below or (II) a Notice Failure occurs, and if on or after such Share Delivery Date the Holder acquires (in an open market transaction, stock loan or otherwise) shares of Common Stock corresponding to all or any portion of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise that the Holder is entitled to receive from the Company and has not received from the Company in connection with such Delivery Failure or Notice Failure, as applicable (a “Buy-In”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, stock loan costs and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so acquired (including, without limitation, by any other Person in respect, or on behalf, of the Holder) (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to so issue and deliver such certificate (and to issue such shares of Common Stock) or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) (and to issue such Warrant Shares) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to so issue and deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such Warrant Shares or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of Warrant Shares multiplied by (B) the lowest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date of the applicable Exercise Notice and ending on the date of such issuance and payment under this clause (ii) (the “Buy-In Payment Amount”). Nothing shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock (or to electronically deliver such shares of Common Stock) upon the exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof. While this Warrant is outstanding, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to participate in FAST. In addition to the foregoing rights, (i) if the Company fails to deliver the applicable number of Warrant Shares upon an exercise pursuant to Section 1 by the applicable Share Delivery Date, then the Holder shall have the right to rescind such exercise in whole or in part and retain and/or have the Company return, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Exercise Notice; provided that the rescission of an exercise shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1(c) or otherwise, and (ii) if a registration statement covering the issuance or resale of the Warrant Shares that are subject to an Exercise Notice is not available for the issuance or resale, as applicable, of such Warrant Shares and the Holder has submitted an Exercise Notice prior to receiving notice of the non-availability of such registration statement and the Company has not already delivered the Warrant Shares underlying such Exercise Notice electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit / Withdrawal At Custodian system, the Holder shall have the option, by delivery of notice to the Company, to (x) rescind such Exercise Notice in whole or in part and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Warrant that has not been exercised pursuant to such Exercise Notice; provided that the rescission of an Exercise Notice shall not affect the Company’s obligation to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 1(c) or otherwise, and/or (y) switch some or all of such Exercise Notice from a cash exercise to a Cashless Exercise.

4

(d)Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary (other than Section 1(f) below), if, at any time of exercise hereof following the one-year anniversary of the Form 10 Disclosure Filing Date, a Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) is not effective (or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use) for the resale by the Holder of all of the Warrant Shares, then the Holder may, in its sole discretion, exercise this Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the “Net Number” of Warrant Shares determined according to the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):

Net Number = (A x B) - (A x C)

       B

For purposes of the foregoing formula:

A= the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised.

5

B = as elected by the Holder: (i) the VWAP of the shares of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Exercise Notice if such Exercise Notice is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b)(64) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Exercise Notice or (z) the Bid Price of the shares of Common Stock as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Exercise Notice if such Exercise Notice is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof, or (iii) the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Exercise Notice if the date of such Exercise Notice is a Trading Day and such Exercise Notice is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day.

C = the Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise.

If the Warrant Shares are issued in a Cashless Exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the 1933 Act, the Warrant Shares take on the registered characteristics of the Warrants being exercised. For purposes of Rule 144(d) promulgated under the 1933 Act, as in effect on the Subscription Date, it is intended that the Warrant Shares issued in a Cashless Exercise shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement.

(e)Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the number of Warrant Shares to be issued pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 15.

6

(f)Limitations on Exercises. The Company shall not effect the exercise of any portion of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Warrant and any such exercise shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, the Holder together with the other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and the other Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock held by the Holder and all other Attribution Parties plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of the other Attribution Parties and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants, including other SPA Warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any other Attribution Party subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 1(f). For purposes of this Section 1(f), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act. For purposes of determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may acquire upon the exercise of this Warrant without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent, if any, setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the “Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If the Company receives an Exercise Notice from the Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall (i) notify the Holder in writing of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such Exercise Notice would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 1(f), to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder must notify the Company of a reduced number of Warrant Shares to be acquired pursuant to such Exercise Notice (the number of shares by which such purchase is reduced, the “Reduction Shares”) and (ii) as soon as reasonably practicable, the Company shall return to the Holder any exercise price paid by the Holder for the Reduction Shares. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day confirm orally and in writing or by electronic mail to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of shares of Common Stock to the Holder upon exercise of this Warrant results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (as determined under Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act), the number of shares so issued by which the Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficial ownership exceeds the Maximum Percentage (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. As soon as reasonably practicable after the issuance of the Excess Shares has been deemed null and void, the Company shall return to the Holder the exercise price paid by the Holder for the Excess Shares. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase (with such increase not effective until the sixty-first (61^st) day after delivery of such notice) or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective until the sixty-first (61^st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and the other Attribution Parties and not to any other holder of SPA Warrants that is not an Attribution Party of the Holder. For purposes of clarity, the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of this Warrant in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the 1934 Act. No prior inability to exercise this Warrant pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of exercisability. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 1(f) to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph or any portion of this paragraph which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section 1(f) or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

7

(g)Reservation of Shares.

(i)Required Reserve Amount. So long as this Warrant remains outstanding, the Company shall at all times keep reserved for issuance under this Warrant a number of shares of Common Stock at least equal to 100% of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock as shall be necessary to satisfy the Company’s obligation to issue shares of Common Stock under the SPA Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise) (the “Required Reserve Amount”); provided that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock reserved pursuant to this Section 1(g)(i) be reduced other than proportionally in connection with any exercise or redemption of SPA Warrants or such other event covered by Section 2(a) below. The Required Reserve Amount (including, without limitation, each increase in the number of shares so reserved) shall be allocated pro rata among the holders of the SPA Warrants based on number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of SPA Warrants held by each holder on the Closing Date (without regard to any limitations on exercise) or increase in the number of reserved shares, as the case may be (the “Authorized Share Allocation”). In the event that a holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such holder’s SPA Warrants, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such holder’s Authorized Share Allocation. Any shares of Common Stock reserved and allocated to any Person which ceases to hold any SPA Warrants shall be allocated to the remaining holders of SPA Warrants, pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the SPA Warrants then held by such holders (without regard to any limitations on exercise).

(ii)Insufficient Authorized Shares. If, notwithstanding Section 1(g)(i) above, and not in limitation thereof, at any time while any of the SPA Warrants remain outstanding, the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve the Required Reserve Amount (an “Authorized Share Failure”), then the Company shall immediately take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for all the SPA Warrants then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each stockholder with a proxy statement and shall use its best efforts to solicit its stockholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such time of an Authorized Share Failure, the Company is able to obtain the written consent of a majority of the shares of its issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock to approve the increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, the Company may satisfy this obligation by obtaining such consent and submitting for filing with the SEC an Information Statement on Schedule 14C. In the event that the Company is prohibited from issuing shares of Common Stock upon an exercise of this Warrant due to the failure by the Company to have sufficient shares of Common Stock available out of the authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (such unavailable number of shares of Common Stock, the “Authorization Failure Shares”), in lieu of delivering such Authorization Failure Shares to the Holder, the Company shall pay cash in exchange for the cancellation of such portion of this Warrant exercisable into such Authorization Failure Shares at a price equal to the sum of (i) the product of (x) such number of Authorization Failure Shares and (y) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date the Holder delivers the applicable Exercise Notice with respect to such Authorization Failure Shares to the Company and ending on the date of such issuance and payment under this Section 1(g); and (ii) to the extent the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Authorization Failure Shares, any Buy-In Payment Amount, brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any, of the Holder incurred in connection therewith. Nothing contained in this Section 1(g) shall limit any obligations of the Company under any provision of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

2.ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 2.

(a)Stock Dividends and Splits. Without limiting any provision of Section 3 or Section 4, if the Company, at any time on or after the Subscription Date, (i) pays a stock dividend on one or more classes of its then outstanding shares of Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its then outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares or (iii) combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its then outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this paragraph occurs during the period that an Exercise Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Exercise Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.

(b)Extraordinary Dividends. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired, shall pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of the shares of Common Stock on account of such Common Stock (or other shares of the Company’s capital stock into which this Warrant is convertible), other than (a) as described in subsection 2(a) above, or (b) Ordinary Cash Dividends (as defined below) (any such non-excluded event being referred to herein as an “Extraordinary Dividend”), then the Exercise Price shall be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such Extraordinary Dividend, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value (as determined by the board of directors of the Company, in good faith) of any securities or other assets paid on each share of Common Stock in respect of such Extraordinary Dividend. For purposes of this subsection 2(b), “Ordinary Cash Dividends” means any cash dividend or cash distribution which, when combined on a per share basis, with the per share amounts of all other cash dividends and cash distributions paid on the Common Stock during the 365-day period ending on the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution (as adjusted to appropriately reflect any of the events referred to in other subsections of this Section 2 and excluding cash dividends or cash distributions that resulted in an adjustment to the Warrant Price or to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of this Warrant) does not exceed $0.50.

9

(c)Number of Warrant Shares. Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 2(a) or Section 2(b), the number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the adjusted number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment (without regard to any limitations on exercise contained herein).

(d)Calculations. All calculations under this Section 2 shall be made by rounding to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100^th of a share, as applicable. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issuance or sale of Common Stock.

(e)Voluntary Adjustment By Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Principal Market, the Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant, with the prior written consent of the Required Holders (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the board of directors of the Company.

3.[RESERVED].

4.PURCHASE RIGHTS; FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS.

(a)Purchase Rights. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise of this Warrant, including without limitation, the Maximum Percentage) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to the extent of the Maximum Percentage (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right (and beneficial ownership) to the extent of any such excess) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such right (and any Purchase Right granted, issued or sold on such initial Purchase Right or on any subsequent Purchase Right held similarly in abeyance) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation).

10

(b)Fundamental Transactions. The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless (i)  the Successor Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4(b) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder prior to such Fundamental Transaction, including agreements to deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant, including, without limitation, which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such adjustments to the number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction) and (ii) the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) is a publicly traded corporation whose common stock is quoted on or listed for trading on an Eligible Market. Upon the consummation of each Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation of each Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property (except such items still issuable under Section 4(a) above, which shall continue to be receivable thereafter)) issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant prior to the applicable Fundamental Transaction, such shares of publicly traded common stock (or its equivalent) of the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of the applicable Fundamental Transaction had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the applicable Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant), as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and without limiting Section 1(f) hereof, the Holder may elect, at its sole option, by delivery of written notice to the Company to waive this Section 4(b) to permit the Fundamental Transaction without the assumption of this Warrant. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of each Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to insure that the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon an exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction but prior to the Expiration Date, in lieu of the shares of the Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property (except such items still issuable under Section 4(a) above, which shall continue to be receivable thereafter)) issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of stock, securities, cash, assets or any other property whatsoever (including warrants or other purchase or subscription rights) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of the applicable Fundamental Transaction had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the applicable Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant). Provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder.

11

(c)Application. The provisions of this Section  shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and Corporate Events and shall be applied as if this Warrant (and any such subsequent warrants) were fully exercisable and without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant (provided that the Holder shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of the Maximum Percentage, applied however with respect to shares of capital stock registered under the 1934 Act and thereafter receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (or any such other warrant)).

5.NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), Bylaws (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issuance or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, and will at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Warrant and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (a) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, and (b) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if after the sixty (60) calendar day anniversary of the Issuance Date, the Holder is not permitted to exercise this Warrant in full for any reason (other than pursuant to restrictions set forth in Section 1(f) hereof), the Company shall use its best efforts to promptly remedy such failure, including, without limitation, obtaining such consents or approvals as necessary to permit such exercise into shares of Common Stock.

12

6.WARRANT HOLDER NOT DEEMED A STOCKHOLDER. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Holder, solely in its capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of share capital of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in its capacity as the Holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares which it is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company. Notwithstanding this Section 6, the Company shall provide the Holder with copies of the same notices and other information given to the stockholders of the Company generally, contemporaneously with the giving thereof to the stockholders.

7.REISSUANCE OF WARRANTS.

(a)Transfer of Warrant. If this Warrant is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)), registered as the Holder may request, representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares being transferred by the Holder and, if less than the total number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant is being transferred, a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) to the Holder representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares not being transferred.

(b)Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant (as to which a written certification and the indemnification contemplated below shall suffice as such evidence), and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Company in customary and reasonable form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant.

(c)Exchangeable for Multiple Warrants. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Company, for a new Warrant or Warrants (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant, and each such new Warrant will represent the right to purchase such portion of such Warrant Shares as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender; provided, however, no warrants for fractional shares of Common Stock shall be given.

(d)Issuance of New Warrants. Whenever the Company is required to issue a new Warrant pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, such new Warrant (i) shall be of like tenor with this Warrant, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant, the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant (or in the case of a new Warrant being issued pursuant to Section 7(a) or Section 7(c), the Warrant Shares designated by the Holder which, when added to the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the other new Warrants issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant), (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant which is the same as the Issuance Date, and (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Warrant.

13

8.NOTICES. Whenever notice is required to be given under this Warrant, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in accordance with Section 9(f) of the Securities Purchase Agreement. The Company shall provide the Holder with prompt written notice of all actions taken pursuant to this Warrant (other than the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise in accordance with the terms hereof), including in reasonable detail a description of such action and the reason therefor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will give written notice to the Holder (i) immediately upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares, setting forth in reasonable detail, and certifying, the calculation of such adjustment(s), (ii) at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or takes a record (A) with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the shares of Common Stock, or (B) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Fundamental Transaction, dissolution or liquidation, provided in each case that such information shall be made known to the public prior to or in conjunction with such notice being provided to the Holder, and (iii) at least ten (10) Trading Days prior to the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the SEC (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries provides material non-public information to the Holder that is not simultaneously filed in a Current Report on Form 8-K and the Holder has not agreed to receive such material non-public information, the Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Holder shall not have any duty of confidentiality to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates or agents with respect to, or a duty to any of the foregoing not to trade on the basis of, such material non-public information. It is expressly understood and agreed that the time of execution specified by the Holder in each Exercise Notice shall be definitive and may not be disputed or challenged by the Company.

9.DISCLOSURE. Upon delivery by the Company to the Holder (or receipt by the Company from the Holder) of any notice in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, unless the Company has in good faith determined that the matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the Company shall on or prior to 9:00 am, New York city time on the Business Day immediately following such notice delivery date, publicly disclose such material, non-public information on a Current Report on Form 8-K or otherwise. In the event that the Company believes that a notice contains material, non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the Company so shall indicate to the Holder explicitly in writing in such notice (or immediately upon receipt of notice from the Holder, as applicable), and in the absence of any such written indication in such notice (or notification from the Company immediately upon receipt of notice from the Holder), the Holder shall be entitled to presume that information contained in the notice does not constitute material, non-public information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Nothing contained in this Section 9 shall limit any obligations of the Company, or any rights of the Holder, under Section 4(i) of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

14

10.ABSENCE OF TRADING AND DISCLOSURE RESTRICTIONS. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Holder is not a fiduciary or agent of the Company and that the Holder shall have no obligation to (a) maintain the confidentiality of any information provided by the Company or (b) refrain from trading any securities while in possession of such information in the absence of a written non-disclosure agreement signed by an officer of the Holder that explicitly provides for such confidentiality and trading restrictions. In the absence of such an executed, written non-disclosure agreement, the Company acknowledges that the Holder may freely trade in any securities issued by the Company, may possess and use any information provided by the Company in connection with such trading activity, and may disclose any such information to any third party.

11.AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. Except for Section 1(f) of this Warrant, which may not be amended, modified or waived, this Warrant may only be amended or modified by written instrument executed by both the Company and the Holder. Any amendment or modification or so approved shall be binding upon all existing and future holders of this Warrant.

12.SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Warrant is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Warrant so long as this Warrant as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

13.GOVERNING LAW. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with, and all questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and performance of this Warrant shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. The Company hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to the Company at the address set forth in Section 9(f) of the Securities Purchase Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. The Company hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude the Holder from bringing suit or taking other legal action against the Company in any other jurisdiction to collect on the Company’s obligations to the Holder, to realize on any collateral or any other security for such obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of the Holder. THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS WARRANT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

15

14.CONSTRUCTION; HEADINGS. This Warrant shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company and the Holder and shall not be construed against any Person as the drafter hereof. The headings of this Warrant are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Warrant. Terms used in this Warrant but defined in the other Transaction Documents shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms on the Closing Date (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) in such other Transaction Documents unless otherwise consented to in writing by the Holder.

15.DISPUTE RESOLUTION.

(a)Submission to Dispute Resolution.

If the Holder and the Company are unable to promptly resolve such dispute relating to such Exercise Price, such Closing Sale Price, such Bid Price or such fair market value or such arithmetic calculation of the number of Warrant Shares (as the case may be), at any time after the second (2^nd) Business Day following such initial notice by the Company or the Holder (as the case may be) of such dispute to the Company or the Holder (as the case may be), then the Holder may, at its sole option, select an independent, reputable investment bank to resolve such dispute.

(ii)The Holder and the Company shall each deliver to such investment bank (A) a copy of the initial dispute submission so delivered in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 15 and (B) written documentation supporting its position with respect to such dispute, in each case, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York time) by the fifth (5^th) Business Day immediately following the date on which the Holder selected such investment bank (the “Dispute Submission Deadline”) (the documents referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (A) and (B) are collectively referred to herein as the “Required Dispute Documentation”) (it being understood and agreed that if either the Holder or the Company fails to so deliver all of the Required Dispute Documentation by the Dispute Submission Deadline, then the party who fails to so submit all of the Required Dispute Documentation shall no longer be entitled to (and hereby waives its right to) deliver or submit any written documentation or other support to such investment bank with respect to such dispute and such investment bank shall resolve such dispute based solely on the Required Dispute Documentation that was delivered to such investment bank prior to the Dispute Submission Deadline). Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by both the Company and the Holder or otherwise requested by such investment bank, neither the Company nor the Holder shall be entitled to deliver or submit any written documentation or other support to such investment bank in connection with such dispute (other than the Required Dispute Documentation).

16

(iii)The Company and the Holder shall cause such investment bank to determine the resolution of such dispute and notify the Company and the Holder of such resolution no later than ten (10) Business Days immediately following the Dispute Submission Deadline. The fees and expenses of such investment bank shall be borne solely by the Company, and such investment bank’s resolution of such dispute shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error.

(b)Miscellaneous. The Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) this Section 15 constitutes an agreement to arbitrate between the Company and the Holder (and constitutes an arbitration agreement) under the rules then in effect § 7501, et seq. of the New York Civil Practice Law and Rules (“CPLR”) and that the Holder is authorized to apply for an order to compel arbitration pursuant to CPLR § 7503(a) in order to compel compliance with this Section 15, (ii) the terms of this Warrant and each other applicable Transaction Document shall serve as the basis for the selected investment bank’s resolution of the applicable dispute, such investment bank shall be entitled (and is hereby expressly authorized) to make all findings, determinations and the like that such investment bank determines are required to be made by such investment bank in connection with its resolution of such dispute and in resolving such dispute such investment bank shall apply such findings, determinations and the like to the terms of this Warrant and any other applicable Transaction Documents, (iii) the Holder (and only the Holder), in its sole discretion, shall have the right to submit any dispute described in this Section 15 to any state or federal court sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, in lieu of utilizing the procedures set forth in this Section 15 and (iv) nothing in this Section 15 shall limit the Holder from obtaining any injunctive relief or other equitable remedies (including, without limitation, with respect to any matters described in this Section 15).

17

16.REMEDIES, CHARACTERIZATION, OTHER OBLIGATIONS, BREACHES AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of the Holder to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Warrant. The Company covenants to the Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, exercises and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to specific performance and/or temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security. The Company shall provide all information and documentation to the Holder that is requested by the Holder to enable the Holder to confirm the Company’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this Warrant (including, without limitation, compliance with Section 2 hereof). The issuance of shares and certificates for shares as contemplated hereby upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder or such shares for any issuance tax or other costs in respect thereof, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a name other than the Holder or its agent on its behalf.

17.PAYMENT OF COLLECTION, ENFORCEMENT AND OTHER COSTS. If (a) this Warrant is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement or is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding or the holder otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under this Warrant or to enforce the provisions of this Warrant or (b) there occurs any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership of the company or other proceedings affecting company creditors’ rights and involving a claim under this Warrant, then the Company shall pay the costs incurred by the Holder for such collection, enforcement or action or in connection with such bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other proceeding, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements.

18

(v)          Employee Relations.  Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any collective bargaining agreement or employs any member of a union.  The Company and its Subsidiaries believe that their relations with their employees are good.  No executive officer (as defined in Rule 501(f) promulgated under the 1933 Act) or other key employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has notified the Company or any such Subsidiary that such officer intends to leave the Company or any such Subsidiary or otherwise terminate such officer’s employment with the Company or any such Subsidiary.  No current (or former) executive officer or other key employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement, non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant, and the continued employment of each such executive officer or other key employee (as the case may be) does not subject the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters.  The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations respecting labor, employment and employment practices and benefits, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where failure to be in compliance would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(iii)Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries knows of any other person who or entity which has stored, treated, recycled, disposed of or otherwise located on any Real Property any Hazardous Materials, including, without limitation, such substances as asbestos and polychlorinated biphenyls.

39

(ii)Limitations on Disclosure.  No BC Party shall, and the BC Parties shall cause each BC Entity and each of its and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents not to, provide any Buyer with any material, non-public information regarding any BC Entity from and after the date hereof without the express prior written consent of such Buyer (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion).  In the event of a breach of any of the foregoing covenants, including, without limitation, Section 4(o) of this Agreement, or any of the covenants or agreements contained in any other Transaction Document, by any BC Entity, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees and agents (as determined in the reasonable good faith judgment of such Buyer), in addition to any other remedy provided herein or in the Transaction Documents, such Buyer shall have the right to make a public disclosure, in the form of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of such breach or such material, non-public information, as applicable, (provided that each BC Entity shall be consulted by such Buyer in connection with any such press release or other public disclosure prior to its release).  No Buyer shall have any liability to any BC Entity, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, stockholders or agents, for any such disclosure.  To the extent that any BC Entity delivers any material, non-public information to a Buyer without such Buyer’s consent, each BC Party hereby covenants and agrees that such Buyer shall not have any duty of confidentiality with respect to, or a duty not to trade on the basis of, such material, non-public information.  Subject to the foregoing, neither the BC Entities nor any Buyer shall issue any press releases or any other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, the Company shall be entitled, without the prior approval of any Buyer, to make the Press Release and any press release or other public disclosure with respect to such transactions (i) in substantial conformity with the 8-K Filing and contemporaneously therewith, (ii) in a Form S-4 registration statement with respect to the Business Combination, (iii) in investor presentations relating to or in connection with the Business Combination and (iv) as is required by applicable law and regulations (provided that in the case of clause (i) each Buyer shall be consulted by the Company in connection with any such press release or other public disclosure prior to its release).  Without the prior written consent of the applicable Buyer (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion), the Company or the SPAC shall not (and shall cause each of their subsidiaries and affiliates to not) disclose the name of such Buyer in any filing, announcement, release or otherwise, except as required by the federal securities law or pursuant to other routine proceedings of regulatory authorities, or to the extent such disclosure is required by law, at the request of the staff of the SEC or regulatory agency or under the rules and regulations of the Principal Market or Eligible Market, as applicable, in which case the Company or the SPAC will provide the Buyer with prior written notice (including by e-mail) of such disclosure to the extent such announcements or other communications do not contain information previously disclosed in a public statement, press release or other communication that was approved by the Buyer in accordance with this Section 4(i).  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary and without implication that the contrary would otherwise be true, each BC Party expressly acknowledges and agrees that no Buyer shall have (unless expressly agreed to by a particular Buyer after the date hereof in a written definitive and binding agreement executed by the applicable BC Party and such particular Buyer (it being understood and agreed that no Buyer may bind any other Buyer with respect thereto)), any duty of confidentiality with respect to, or a duty not to trade on the basis of, any material, non-public information regarding any BC Entity.

40

(j)          Additional Registration Statements.  Until the Applicable Date (as defined below) and at any time thereafter while any Registration Statement is not effective or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use or any Current Public Information Failure (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) exists, no BC Party shall file a registration statement or an offering statement under the 1933 Act relating to securities that are not the Registrable Securities (other than a registration statement on Form S-4 with respect to the Business Combination, a registration statement on Form S-8, a registration statement filed pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement (as defined in the Notes), or such supplements or amendments the foregoing registration statements or to registration statements that are outstanding and have been declared effective by the SEC as of the date hereof (solely to the extent necessary to keep such registration statements effective and available and not with respect to any Subsequent Placement (as defined below))).  “Applicable Date” means the earlier of (x) the first date on which the resale by the Buyers of all the Registrable Securities required to be filed on the initial Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement is declared effective by the SEC (and each prospectus contained therein is available for use on such date) or (y) the first date on which all of the Registrable Securities are eligible to be resold by the Buyers pursuant to Rule 144 (or, if a Current Public Information Failure has occurred and is continuing, such later date after which the Company has cured such Current Public Information Failure).

(k)          Additional Issuance of Securities.  So long as any Buyer beneficially owns any Notes or Warrants, the Company will not, without the prior written consent of the Required Holders, issue any Notes (other than to the Buyers as contemplated hereby) and the Company shall not issue any other securities that would cause a breach or default under the Notes or the Warrants.

(l)          Reservation of Shares.  So long as any of the Notes or Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall take all action necessary to at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance, no less than the sum of (i) 100% of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all the Notes then outstanding (assuming for purposes hereof that (x) the Notes are convertible at the  Alternate Conversion Price then in effect, (y) interest on the Notes shall accrue through the forty-five month anniversary of the Closing Date and will be converted in shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to the  Alternate Conversion Price then in effect and (z) any such conversion shall not take into account any limitations on the conversion of the Notes set forth in the Notes), and (ii) the maximum number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of all the Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Warrants set forth therein) (collectively, the “Required Reserve Amount”); provided that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock reserved pursuant to this Section 4(l) be reduced other than proportionally in connection with any conversion, exercise and/or redemption, as applicable of Notes and Warrants.  If at any time the number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance is not sufficient to meet the Required Reserve Amount, the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares, including, without limitation, calling a special meeting of stockholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company’s obligations pursuant to the Transaction Documents, in the case of an insufficient number of authorized shares, obtain stockholder approval of an increase in such authorized number of shares, and voting the management shares of the Company in favor of an increase in the authorized shares of the Company to ensure that the number of authorized shares is sufficient to meet the Required Reserve Amount.

(m)          Conduct of Business.  The business of the BC Entities shall not be conducted in violation of any law, ordinance or regulation of any Governmental Entity, except where such violations would not reasonably be expected to result, either individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect.

41

(n)          Other Notes; Variable Securities.  So long as any Notes remain outstanding, each of the BC Entities shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any Subsequent Placement involving a Variable Rate Transaction (other than an equity line of credit provided by an investment bank or an “at-the-market” offering).  “Variable Rate Transaction” means a transaction in which any BC Entity (i) issues or sells any Convertible Securities either (A) at a conversion, exercise or exchange rate or other price that is based upon and/or varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such Convertible Securities, or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such Convertible Securities or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of one or more BC Entities or the market for the Common Stock, other than pursuant to a customary “weighted average” anti-dilution provision or (ii) enters into any agreement (other than an equity line of credit provided by an investment bank or an “at-the-market” offering) whereby one or more BC Entities may sell securities at a future determined price (other than standard and customary “preemptive” or “participation” rights).  Each Buyer shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against any BC Entity to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages.  “Subsequent Placement” means any, direct or indirect, issuance, offer, sale, grant of any option or right to purchase, or otherwise dispose of (or announcement of any issuance, offer, sale, grant of any option or right to purchase or other disposition of) any equity security or any equity-linked or related security (including, without limitation, any “equity security” (as that term is defined under Rule 405 promulgated under the 1933 Act), any Convertible Securities (as defined below), any debt, any preferred stock or any purchase rights) of any BC Entity.

(o)          Participation Right.  At any time on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, no BC Entity shall, directly or indirectly, effect any Subsequent Placement unless the Company shall have first complied with this Section 4(o).  The Company acknowledges and agrees that the right set forth in this Section 4(o) is a right granted by the Company, separately, to each Buyer.

(i)At least five (5) Trading Days prior to any proposed or intended Subsequent Placement, the Company shall deliver to each Buyer a written notice (each such notice, a “Pre-Notice”), which Pre-Notice shall not contain any information (including, without limitation, material, non-public information) other than:  (A) if the proposed Offer Notice (as defined below) constitutes or contains material, non-public information, a statement asking whether the Investor is willing to accept material non-public information or (B) if the proposed Offer Notice does not constitute or contain material, non-public information, (x) a statement that the Company proposes or intends to effect a Subsequent Placement, (y) a statement that the statement in clause (x) above does not constitute material, non-public information and (z) a statement informing such Buyer that it is entitled to receive an Offer Notice (as defined below) with respect to such Subsequent Placement upon its written request.  Upon the written request of a Buyer within three (3) Trading Days after the Company’s delivery to such Buyer of such Pre-Notice, and only upon a written request by such Buyer, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one (1) Trading Day after such request, deliver to such Buyer an irrevocable written notice (the “Offer Notice”) of any proposed or intended issuance or sale or exchange (the “Offer”) of the securities being offered (the “Offered Securities”) in a Subsequent Placement, which Offer Notice shall (A) identify and describe the Offered Securities, (B) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the Offered Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (C) identify the Persons (if known) to which or with which the Offered Securities are to be offered, issued, sold or exchanged and (D) offer to issue and sell to or exchange with such Buyer in accordance with the terms of the Offer such Buyer’s pro rata portion of 5% of the Offered Securities, provided that the number of Offered Securities which such Buyer shall have the right to subscribe for under this Section 4(o) shall be (x) based on such Buyer’s pro rata portion of the aggregate original principal amount of the Notes purchased hereunder by all Buyers (the “Basic Amount”), and (y) with respect to each Buyer that elects to purchase its Basic Amount, any additional portion of the Offered Securities attributable to the Basic Amounts of other Buyers as such Buyer shall indicate it will purchase or acquire should the other Buyers subscribe for less than their Basic Amounts (the “Undersubscription Amount”), which process shall be repeated until each Buyer shall have an opportunity to subscribe for any remaining Undersubscription Amount.

42

(ii)To accept an Offer, in whole or in part, such Buyer must deliver a written notice to the Company prior to the end of the fifth (5th) Business Day after such Buyer’s receipt of the Offer Notice (the “Offer Period”), setting forth the portion of such Buyer’s Basic Amount that such Buyer elects to purchase and, if such Buyer shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, the Undersubscription Amount, if any, that such Buyer elects to purchase (in either case, the “Notice of Acceptance”).  If the Basic Amounts subscribed for by all Buyers are less than the total of all of the Basic Amounts, then each Buyer who has set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of Acceptance shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts subscribed for, the Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed for; provided, however, if the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for exceed the difference between the total of all the Basic Amounts and the Basic Amounts subscribed for (the “Available Undersubscription Amount”), each Buyer who has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount shall be entitled to purchase only that portion of the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Basic Amount of such Buyer bears to the total Basic Amounts of all Buyers that have subscribed for Undersubscription Amounts, subject to rounding by the Company to the extent it deems reasonably necessary.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company desires to modify or amend the terms and conditions of the Offer prior to the expiration of the Offer Period, the Company may deliver to each Buyer a new Offer Notice and the Offer Period shall expire on the fifth (5th) Business Day after such Buyer’s receipt of such new Offer Notice.

(iii)The Company shall have five (5) Business Days from the expiration of the Offer Period above (A) to offer, issue, sell or exchange all or any part of such Offered Securities as to which a Notice of Acceptance has not been given by a Buyer (the “Refused Securities”) pursuant to a definitive agreement(s) (the “Subsequent Placement Agreement”), but only to the offerees described in the Offer Notice (if so described therein) and only upon terms and conditions (including, without limitation, unit prices and interest rates) that are not more favorable to the acquiring Person or Persons or less favorable to the Company than those set forth in the Offer Notice and (B) to publicly announce (x) the execution of such Subsequent Placement Agreement, and (y) either (I) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such Subsequent Placement Agreement or (II) the termination of such Subsequent Placement Agreement, which shall be filed with the SEC on a Current Report on Form 8-K with such Subsequent Placement Agreement and any documents contemplated therein filed as exhibits thereto.

43

(iv)In the event the Company shall propose to sell less than all the Refused Securities (any such sale to be in the manner and on the terms specified in Section 4(o)(iii) above), then each Buyer may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, withdraw its Notice of Acceptance or reduce the number or amount of the Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance to an amount that shall be not less than the number or amount of the Offered Securities that such Buyer elected to purchase pursuant to Section 4(o)(ii) above multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of Offered Securities the Company actually proposes to issue, sell or exchange (including Offered Securities to be issued or sold to Buyers pursuant to this Section 4(o) prior to such reduction) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the original amount of the Offered Securities.  In the event that any Buyer so elects to reduce the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not issue, sell or exchange more than the reduced number or amount of the Offered Securities unless and until such securities have again been offered to the Buyers in accordance with Section 4(o)(i) above.

(v)Upon the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the Refused Securities, such Buyer shall acquire from the Company, and the Company shall issue to such Buyer, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to Section 4(o)(iv) above if such Buyer has so elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer.  The purchase by such Buyer of any Offered Securities is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company and such Buyer of a separate purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to such Buyer and its counsel.

(vi)Any Offered Securities not acquired by a Buyer or other Persons in accordance with this Section 4(o) may not be issued, sold or exchanged until they are again offered to such Buyer under the procedures specified in this Agreement.

(vii)The Company and each Buyer agree that if any Buyer elects to participate in the Offer, (x) neither the Subsequent Placement Agreement with respect to such Offer nor any other transaction documents related thereto (collectively, the “Subsequent Placement Documents”) shall include any term or provision whereby such Buyer shall be required to agree to any restrictions on trading as to any securities of the Company or be required to consent to any amendment to or termination of, or grant any waiver, release or the like under or in connection with, any agreement previously entered into with the Company or any instrument received from the Company, and (y) any registration rights set forth in such Subsequent Placement Documents shall be similar in all material respects to the registration rights contained in the Registration Rights Agreement.

44

(viii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4(o) and unless otherwise agreed to by such Buyer, the Company shall either confirm in writing to such Buyer that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Placement has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the Offered Securities, in either case, in such a manner such that such Buyer will not be in possession of any material, non-public information, by the fifth (5th) Business Day following delivery of the Offer Notice.  If by such fifth (5th) Business Day, no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Offered Securities has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by such Buyer, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and such Buyer shall not be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.  Should the Company decide to pursue such transaction with respect to the Offered Securities, the Company shall provide such Buyer with another Offer Notice and such Buyer will again have the right of participation set forth in this Section 4(o).  The Company shall not be permitted to deliver more than one such Offer Notice to such Buyer in any sixty (60) day period, except as expressly contemplated by the last sentence of Section 4(o)(ii).

(ix)The restrictions contained in this Section 4(o) shall not apply in connection with the issuance of any Excluded Securities (as defined in the Notes).  The Company shall not circumvent the provisions of this Section 4(o) by providing terms or conditions to one Buyer that are not provided to all.

5.          REGISTER; TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS; LEGEND.

(a)          Register.  The Company shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to each holder of Securities), a register for the Notes and the Warrants in which the Company shall record the name and address of the Person in whose name the Notes andthe Warrants have been issued (including the name and address of each transferee), the principal amount of the Notes held by such Person, the number of Conversion Shares issuable pursuant to the terms of the Notes and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants held by such Person.  The Company shall keep the register open and available at all times during business hours for inspection of any Buyer or its legal representatives.

(b)          Transfer Agent Instructions.  The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent and any subsequent transfer agent (as applicable, the “Transfer Agent”) in a form acceptable to each of the Buyers (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”) to issue certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), registered in the name of each Buyer or its respective nominee(s), for the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares in such amounts as specified from time to time by each Buyer to the Company upon conversion of the Notes or the exercise of the Warrants (as the case may be) upon effectiveness of the Registration Statement or resale in accordance with Rule 144, as applicable.  The Company represents and warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 5(b), and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 2(g) hereof, will be given by the Company to its transfer agent with respect to the Securities, and that the Securities shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company, as applicable, to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.  If a Buyer effects a sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities in accordance with Section 2(g), the Company shall permit the transfer and shall promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC in such name and in such denominations as specified by such Buyer to effect such sale, transfer or assignment.  In the event that such sale, assignment or transfer involves Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement or in compliance with Rule 144, the transfer agent shall issue such shares to such Buyer, assignee or transferee (as the case may be) without any restrictive legend in accordance with Section 5(d) below.  The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to a Buyer.  Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 5(b) will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 5(b), that a Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.  The Company shall cause its counsel to issue the legal opinion referred to in the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions to the Company’s transfer agent on each Effective Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement).  Any fees (with respect to the transfer agent, counsel to the Company or otherwise) associated with the issuance of such opinion or the removal of any legends on any of the Securities shall be borne by the Company.

(c)          Legends.  Each Buyer understands that the Securities have been issued (or will be issued in the case of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares) pursuant to an exemption from registration or qualification under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws, and except as set forth below, the Securities shall bear any legend as required by the “blue sky” laws of any state and a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such stock certificates):

(d)          Removal of Legends.  Certificates evidencing Securities shall not be required to contain the legend set forth in Section 5(c) above or any other legend (i) while a registration statement (including a Registration Statement) covering the resale of such Securities is effective under the 1933 Act, (ii) following any sale of such Securities pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming the transferor is not an affiliate of the Company), (iii) if such Securities are eligible to be sold, assigned or transferred under Rule 144 (provided that a Buyer and its broker provide the Company with customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company and its transfer agent, which shall not include an opinion of Buyer’s counsel), (iv) in connection with a sale, assignment or other transfer (other than under Rule 144), provided that such Buyer provides the Company with an opinion of counsel to such Buyer, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities may be made without registration under the applicable requirements of the 1933 Act or (v) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the 1933 Act (including, without limitation, controlling judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the SEC).  If a legend is not required pursuant to the foregoing, the Company shall no later than two (2) Trading Days (or such earlier date as required pursuant to the 1934 Act or other applicable law, rule or regulation for the settlement of a trade initiated on the date such Buyer delivers such legended certificate representing such Securities to the Company) following the delivery by a Buyer to the Company or the transfer agent (with notice to the Company) of a legended certificate representing such Securities (endorsed or with stock powers attached, signatures guaranteed, and otherwise in form necessary to affect the reissuance and/or transfer, if applicable), together with any other deliveries from such Buyer as may be required above in this Section 5(d), as directed by such Buyer, either:  (A) provided that the Company’s transfer agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (“FAST”) and such Securities are Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, credit the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which such Buyer shall be entitled to such Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system or (B) if the Company’s transfer agent is not participating in FAST, issue and deliver (via reputable overnight courier) to such Buyer, a certificate representing such Securities that is free from all restrictive and other legends, registered in the name of such Buyer or its designee (the date by which such credit is so required to be made to the balance account of such Buyer’s or such Buyer’s designee with DTC or such certificate is required to be delivered to such Buyer pursuant to the foregoing is referred to herein as the “Required Delivery Date”, and the date such shares of Common Stock are actually delivered without restrictive legend to such Buyer or such Buyer’s designee with DTC, as applicable, the “Share Delivery Date”).  The Company shall be responsible for any transfer agent fees or DTC fees with respect to any issuance of Securities or the removal of any legends with respect to any Securities in accordance herewith.

50

(e)          Failure to Timely Deliver; Buy-In.  If the Company fails, for any reason or for no reason, to issue and deliver (or cause to be delivered) to a Buyer (or its designee) by the Required

and register such Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in FAST, to credit the balance account of such Buyer or such Buyer’s designee with DTC for such number of Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) submitted for legend removal by such Buyer pursuant to Section 5(d) above or (II) if the Registration Statement covering the resale of the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) submitted for legend removal by such Buyer pursuant to Section 5(d) above (the “Unavailable Shares”) is not available for the resale of such Unavailable Shares and the Company fails to promptly, but in no event later than as required pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement (x) so notify such Buyer and (y) deliver the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable, electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) submitted for legend removal by such Buyer pursuant to Section 5(d) above to such Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian system (the event described in the immediately foregoing clause (II) is hereinafter referred as a “Notice Failure” and together with the event described in clause (I) above, a “Delivery Failure”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to such Buyer, the Company shall pay in cash to such Buyer on each day after the Share Delivery Date and during such Delivery Failure an amount equal to 2% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock not issued to such Buyer on or prior to the Required Delivery Date and to which such Buyer is entitled, and (B) any trading price of the Common Stock selected by such Buyer in writing as in effect at any time during the period beginning on the date of the delivery by such Buyer to the Company of the applicable Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) and ending on the applicable Share Delivery Date.  In addition to the foregoing, if on or prior to the Required Delivery Date either (I) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, the Company shall fail to issue and deliver a certificate to a Buyer and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in FAST, credit the balance account of such Buyer or such Buyer’s designee with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such Buyer submitted for legend removal by such Buyer pursuant to Section 5(d) above (ii) below or (II) a Notice Failure occurs, and if on or after such Trading Day such Buyer acquires (in an open market transaction, stock loan or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Buyer of shares of Common Stock submitted for legend removal by such Buyer pursuant to Section 5(d) above that such Buyer is entitled to receive from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within two (2) Trading Days after such Buyer’s request and in such Buyer’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to such Buyer in an amount equal to such Buyer’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, stock loan costs and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so acquired (including, without limitation, by any other Person in respect, or on behalf, of such Buyer) (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to so deliver such certificate or credit such Buyer’s balance account shall terminate and such shares shall be cancelled, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to so deliver to such Buyer a certificate or certificates or credit the balance account of such Buyer or such Buyer’s designee with DTC representing such number of shares of Common Stock that would have been so delivered if the Company timely complied with its obligations hereunder and pay cash to such Buyer in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) that the Company was required to deliver to such Buyer by the Required Delivery Date multiplied by (B) the lowest Closing Sale Price (as defined in the Warrants) of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date of the delivery by such Buyer to the Company of the applicable Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) and ending on the date of such delivery and payment under this clause (ii).  Nothing shall limit such Buyer’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock (or to electronically deliver such shares of Common Stock) as required pursuant to the terms hereof.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any given Notice Failure and/or Delivery Failure, this Section 5(e) shall not apply to the applicable Buyer the extent the Company has already paid such amounts in full to such Buyer with respect to such Notice Failure and/or Delivery Failure, as applicable, pursuant to the analogous sections of the Note or Warrant, as applicable, held by such Buyer.

56

9.          MISCELLANEOUS.

(a)          Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial.  All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York.  Each of the BC Parties hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or under any of the other Transaction Documents or with any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that such suit, action or proceeding may not be brought or maintained in any such court, that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper.  Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude any Buyer from bringing suit or taking other legal action against any BC Party in any other jurisdiction to collect on any BC Party’s obligations to such Buyer or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of such Buyer.  EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM RELATING THERETO. IF THE SUBJECT MATTER OF ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE IS ONE IN WHICH THE WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL IS PROHIBITED, NO PARTY HERETO NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL ASSERT IN SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE A NONCOMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. FURTHERMORE, NO PARTY HERETO NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE WITH A SEPARATE ACTION OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE WAIVED. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (II) SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (III) SUCH PARTY MAKES THE FOREGOING WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

57

(b)          Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party.  In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

(c)          Headings; Gender.  The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement.  Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof.  The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.”  The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision in which they are found, unless otherwise explicitly specified herein.

(d)          Severability; Maximum Payment Amounts.  If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties.  The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (and without implication that the following is required or applicable), it is the intention of the parties that in no event shall amounts and value paid by the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries (as the case may be), or payable to or received by any of the Buyers, under the Transaction Documents (including without limitation, any amounts that would be characterized as “interest” under applicable law) exceed amounts permitted under any applicable law.  Accordingly, if any obligation to pay, payment made to any Buyer, or collection by any Buyer pursuant the Transaction Documents is finally judicially determined to be contrary to any such applicable law, such obligation to pay, payment or collection shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of such Buyer, the Company and its Subsidiaries and such amount shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by the applicable law.  Such adjustment shall be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing or refunding, at the option of such Buyer, the amount of interest or any other amounts which would constitute unlawful amounts required to be paid or actually paid to such Buyer under the Transaction Documents.  For greater certainty, to the extent that any interest, charges, fees, expenses or other amounts required to be paid to or received by such Buyer under any of the Transaction Documents or related thereto are held to be within the meaning of “interest” or another applicable term to otherwise be violative of applicable law, such amounts shall be pro-rated over the period of time to which they relate.

58

(e)          Entire Agreement; Amendments.  This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between the Buyers, any BC Entity, their affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf, including, without limitation, any transactions by any Buyer with respect to Common Stock or the Securities, and the other matters contained herein and therein, and this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein contain the entire understanding of the parties solely with respect to the matters covered herein and therein; provided, however, nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall (or shall be deemed to) (i) have any effect on any agreements any Buyer has entered into with, or any instruments any Buyer has received from, any BC Entity prior to the date hereof with respect to any prior investment made by such Buyer in any BC Entity or (ii) waive, alter, modify or amend in any respect any obligations of any BC Entity, or any rights of or benefits to any Buyer or any other Person, in any agreement entered into prior to the date hereof between or among any BC Entity and any Buyer, or any instruments any Buyer received from any BC Entity prior to the date hereof, in each case, unrelated to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and all such agreements and instruments shall continue in full force and effect.  For the avoidance of doubt, the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents supersede any legally binding terms set forth in that certain “Financing Term Sheet: Secured Convertible Promissory Note” signed by the Target and the lead buyer. Except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither any BC Party nor any Buyer makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters.  For clarification purposes, the Recitals are part of this Agreement.  No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the BC Parties and the Required Holders (as defined below), and any amendment to any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 9(e) shall be binding on all Buyers and holders of Securities, as applicable; provided that no such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it (A) applies to less than all of the holders of the Securities then outstanding or (B) imposes any obligation or liability on any Buyer without such Buyer’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion); and provided further that the provisions of Sections 4(v) and 4(w) above cannot be amended or waived without the additional prior written approval of the Collateral Agent or its successor.  No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party, provided that the Required Holders may waive any provision of this Agreement, and any waiver of any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 9(e) shall be binding on all Buyers and holders of Securities, as applicable, provided that no such waiver shall be effective to the extent that it (1) applies to less than all of the holders of the Securities then outstanding (unless a party gives a waiver as to itself only) or (2) imposes any obligation or liability on any Buyer without such Buyer’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion).  No consideration (other than reimbursement of legal fees) shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents, all holders of the Notes or all holders of the Warrants (as the case may be).  From the date hereof and while any Notes or Warrants are outstanding, no BC Entity shall be permitted to receive any consideration from a Buyer or a holder of Notes or Warrants that is not otherwise contemplated by the Transaction Documents in order to, directly or indirectly, induce any BC Entity (i) to treat such Buyer or holder of Notes or Warrants in a manner that is more favorable than to other similarly situated Buyers or holders of Notes or Warrants, as applicable, or (ii) to treat any Buyer(s) or holder(s) of Notes or Warrants in a manner that is less favorable than the Buyer or holder of Notes or Warrants that is paying such consideration; provided, however, that the determination of whether a Buyer has been treated more or less favorably than another Buyer shall disregard any securities of the Company purchased or sold by any Buyer.  No BC Entity has, directly or indirectly, made any agreements with any Buyers relating to the terms or conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents except as set forth in the Transaction Documents. 

59

Without limiting the foregoing, each BC Party confirms that, except as set forth in this Agreement, no Buyer (other than the Bridge Buyer) has made any commitment or promise or has any other obligation to provide any financing to any BC Entity or otherwise.  As a material inducement for each Buyer to enter into this Agreement, each BC Party expressly acknowledges and agrees that (x) no due diligence or other investigation or inquiry conducted by a Buyer, any of its advisors or any of its representatives shall affect such Buyer’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, such BC Party’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (y) unless a provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document is expressly preceded by the phrase “except as disclosed in the SEC Documents,” nothing contained in any of the SEC Documents shall affect such Buyer’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, such BC Party’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.  “Required Holders” means (I) prior to the Closing Date, each Buyer entitled to purchase Notes at the Closing and (II) on or after the Closing Date, each of Allegro Opportunities LLC and the Bridge Buyer.

(f)          Notices.  Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered:  (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by electronic mail (provided that such sent email is kept on file (whether electronically or otherwise) by the sending party and the sending party does not receive an automatically generated message from the recipient’s email server that such e-mail could not be delivered to such recipient); or (iii) one (1) Business Day after deposit with an overnight courier service with next day delivery specified, in each case, properly addressed to the party to receive the same.  The mailing addresses and e-mail addresses for such communications shall be:

63

(g)          Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns, including any purchasers of any of the Notes and Warrants.  No BC Party shall assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Required Holders, including, without limitation, by way of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Warrants) (unless the Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental Transactions set forth in the Warrants) or a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Notes) (unless the Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental Transactions set forth in the Notes).  Prior to the Closing, the Bridge Buyer may assign and transfer its rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the purchase of any or all Securities, which would otherwise be purchased by the Bridge Buyer, to any other Person (each a “Permitted Assignee”), provided that the Bridge Buyer shall remain obligated to purchase such assigned Securities upon any breach by any such Permitted Assignee hereunder. Upon such an assignment, the Schedule of Buyers shall be revised to reflect such assignment. A Buyer may assign some or all of its rights and obligations hereunder in connection with any transfer of any of its Securities without the consent of but upon written notice (delivered promptly after the consummation of such assignment or transfer) to any BC Party and in compliance with any restrictions, limitations, requirements or procedures relating to any such transfer contained in this agreement or any Transaction Document, in which event such assignee shall be deemed to be a Buyer hereunder with respect to such assigned rights.

(h)          No Third Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, other than the Indemnitees referred to in Section 9(k).

(i)          Survival.  The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants shall survive the Closing.  Each Buyer shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder.

(j)          Further Assurances.  Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

64

(k)          Indemnification.  In consideration of each Buyer’s execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of each BC Party’s other obligations under the Transaction Documents, each BC Party, severally, shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each Buyer and each holder of any Securities that is party to this Agreement and all of their stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing Persons’ agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by any BC Entity in any of the Transaction Documents, (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of any BC Entity contained in any of the Transaction Documents or (iii) any cause of action, suit, proceeding or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of any BC Entity) or which otherwise involves such Indemnitee that arises out of or results from (A) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents, (B) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, (C) any disclosure properly made by such Buyer pursuant to Section 4(i), or (D) the status of such Buyer or holder of the Securities either as an investor in any BC Entity pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or as a party to this Agreement (including, without limitation, as a party in interest or otherwise in any action or proceeding for injunctive or other equitable relief); provided, that in no event shall the Indemnified Liabilities include any actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities or damages or expenses to the extent arising from, resulting from or relating to any conduct by any Buyer which is finally judicially determined to constitute fraud.  To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by a BC Entity may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.  Except as otherwise set forth herein, the mechanics and procedures with respect to the rights and obligations under this Section 9(k) shall be the same as those set forth in Section 6 of the Registration Rights Agreement.

(l)          Construction.  The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.  No specific representation or warranty shall limit the generality or applicability of a more general representation or warranty.  Each and every reference to share prices, shares of Common Stock and any other numbers in this Agreement that relate to the Common Stock shall be automatically adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations or other similar transactions that occur with respect to the Common Stock after the date of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty against, or a prohibition of, any actions with respect to the borrowing of, arrangement to borrow, identification of the availability of, and/or securing of, securities of the Company in order for such Buyer (or its broker or other financial representative) to effect short sales or similar transactions in the future.

65

(m)          Remedies.  Each Buyer and in the event of assignment by Buyer of its rights and obligations hereunder, each holder of Securities, shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holders have under any law.  Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law.  Furthermore, each  party hereto recognizes that in the event that such party fails to perform, observe, or discharge any or all of its obligations under this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, any remedy at law may be inadequate relief to one or more other parties hereto.  Each party hereto therefore agrees that each party hereto shall be entitled to specific performance and/or temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security.  The remedies provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief).

(n)          Withdrawal Right.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents, whenever any Buyer exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and any BC Entity does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Buyer may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to such applicable BC Entity, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.

(o)          Payment Set Aside; Currency.  To the extent that a BC Entity makes a payment or payments to any Buyer hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents or any of the Buyers enforce or exercise their rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to such BC Entity, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, foreign, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.  Unless otherwise expressly indicated, all dollar amounts referred to in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are in United States Dollars (“U.S. Dollars”), and all amounts owing under this Agreement and all other Transaction Documents shall be paid in U.S. Dollars.  All amounts denominated in other currencies (if any) shall be converted into the U.S. Dollar equivalent amount in accordance with the Exchange Rate on the date of calculation.  “Exchange Rate”means, in relation to any amount of currency to be converted into U.S. Dollars pursuant to this Agreement, the U.S. Dollar exchange rate as published in the Wall Street Journal on the relevant date of calculation.

(p)          Judgment Currency.

66

(i)If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any BC Entity in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in any court in any jurisdiction it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this Section 9(p) referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in US Dollars under this Agreement, the conversion shall be made at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Trading Day immediately preceding:

(1)the date actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of New York or in the courts of any other jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date:  or

(2)the date on which the foreign court determines, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Section 9(p)(i)(2) being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

(ii)If in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in Section 9(p)(i)(2)  above, there is a change in the Exchange Rate prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the applicable party shall pay such adjusted amount as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of US Dollars which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date.

(iii)Any amount due from any BC Entity under this provision shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

(q)          Independent Nature of Buyers’ Obligations and Rights.  The obligations of each Buyer under the Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Buyer, and no Buyer shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Buyer under any Transaction Document.  Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Buyer pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Buyers as, and each BC Party acknowledges that the Buyers do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity, or create a presumption that the Buyers are in any way acting in concert or as a group or entity, and no BC Entity shall assert any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or any matters, and each BC Party acknowledges that the Buyers are not acting in concert or as a group, and no BC Entity shall assert any such claim, with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.  The decision of each Buyer to purchase Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Buyer independently of any other Buyer.  Each Buyer acknowledges that no other Buyer has acted as agent for such Buyer in connection with such Buyer making its investment hereunder and that no other Buyer will be acting as agent of such Buyer in connection with monitoring such Buyer’s investment in the Securities or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents.  Each BC Party and each Buyer confirms that each Buyer has independently participated with the BC Entities in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors.  Each Buyer shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Buyer to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.  The use of a single agreement to effectuate the purchase and sale of the Securities contemplated hereby was solely in the control of the BC Parties, not the action or decision of any Buyer, and was done solely for the convenience of the BC Entities and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Buyer.  It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between applicable BC Entities and a Buyer, solely, and not between the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Buyers collectively and not between and among the Buyers.

Any Holder of Registrable Securities shall have the right to withdraw from a Piggyback Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of his, her or its intention to withdraw from such Piggyback Registration prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Piggyback Registration, or, if such Piggyback Registration is in connection with an underwritten offering pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement, then prior to the public announcement of such offering. The Company (whether on its own good faith determination or as the result of a request for withdrawal by persons pursuant to separate written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement filed with the Commission in connection with a Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the Piggyback Registration prior to its withdrawal under this subsection 2.2.3.

Section 2.3Resale Shelf Registration Rights.

2.3.1Registration Statement Covering Resale of Registrable Securities. The Company shall prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed with the Commission, no later than forty-five (45) days following the Closing Date, a Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act or any successor thereto registering the resale from time to time by Holders of all of the Registrable Securities held by the Holders (the “Resale Shelf Registration Statement”). The Resale Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 (or, if Form S-3 is not available to be used by the Company at such time, on Form S-1 or another appropriate form permitting Registration of such Registrable Securities for resale). If the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is initially filed on Form S-1 and thereafter the Company becomes eligible to use Form S-3 for secondary sales, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, cause such Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be amended, or shall file a new replacement Resale Shelf Registration Statement, such that the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is on Form S-3. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as possible after filing; provided, however, that the Company’s obligations to include the Registrable Securities held by a Holder in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement are contingent upon such Holder furnishing in writing to the Company such information regarding the Holder, the securities of the Company held by the Holder and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities as shall be reasonably requested by the Company to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities, and the Holder shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations. Once effective, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus included therein continuously effective and to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available or, if not available, to ensure that another Registration Statement is available, under the Securities Act at all times until the earliest of (i) the date on which all Registrable Securities and other securities covered by such Registration Statement have been disposed of in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement and (ii) the date on which all Registrable Securities and other securities covered by such Registration Statement have ceased to be Registrable Securities. The Registration Statement filed with the Commission pursuant to this subsection 2.3.1 shall contain a prospectus in such form as to permit any Holder to sell such Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar provision adopted by the Commission then in effect) at any time beginning on the effective date for such Registration Statement (subject to lock-up restrictions provided in Section 5.1 of this Agreement), and shall provide that such Registrable Securities may be sold pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, Holders.

2.3.2Notification and Distribution of Materials. The Company shall notify the Holders in writing of the effectiveness of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement as soon as practicable, and in any event within one (1) Business Day after the Resale Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective, and shall furnish to them, without charge, such number of copies of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement (including any amendments, supplements and exhibits), the Prospectus contained therein (including each preliminary prospectus and all related amendments and supplements) and any documents incorporated by reference in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or such other documents as the Holders may reasonably request in order to facilitate the sale of the Registrable Securities in the manner described in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement.

2.3.3Amendments and Supplements. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.3.1 above, the Company shall promptly prepare and file with the Commission from time to time such amendments and supplements to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep the Resale Shelf Registration Statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all the Registrable Securities. If any Resale Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2.3.1 is filed on Form S-3 and thereafter the Company becomes ineligible to use Form S-3 for secondary sales, the Company shall promptly notify the Holders of such ineligibility and use its commercially reasonable efforts to file a shelf registration on an appropriate form as promptly as practicable to replace the shelf registration statement on Form S-3 and have such replacement Resale Shelf Registration Statement declared effective as promptly as practicable and to cause such replacement Resale Shelf Registration Statement to remain effective, and to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Resale Shelf Registration Statement is available or, if not available, that another Resale Shelf Registration Statement is available, for the resale of all the Registrable Securities held by the Holders until all such Registrable Securities have ceased to be Registrable Securities; provided, however, that at any time the Company once again becomes eligible to use Form S-3, the Company shall cause such replacement Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be amended, or shall file a new replacement Resale Shelf Registration Statement, such that the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is once again on Form S-3.

9

2.3.4SEC Cutback. Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this Section 2.3, in the event the Commission informs the Company 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 Company agrees to promptly (i) inform each of the Holders thereof and use its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement as required by the Commission and/or (ii) withdraw the Resale Shelf Registration Statement 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 Company for such registration statement, on such other form available to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering; provided, however, that prior to filing such amendment or New Registration Statement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the Commission 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 Commission 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 Company used diligent efforts to advocate with the Commission 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 Commission that certain Holders must be reduced first based on the number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders. In the event the Company amends the Resale Shelf Registration Statement or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by Commission or SEC Guidance provided to the Company 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 Resale Shelf Registration Statement, as amended, or the New Registration Statement.

2.3.5Underwritten Shelf Takedown. At any time and from time to time after a Resale Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission, the Holders may request to sell all or any portion of the Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering that is registered pursuant to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement (each, an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”); provided, however, that the Company shall only be obligated to effect an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if such offering shall include securities with a total offering price (including piggyback securities and before deduction of underwriting discounts or commissions) reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $10,000,000. All requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns shall be made by giving written notice to the Company at least five (5) days prior to the public announcement of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, which shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the expected price range (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown. Except in the case of a requested Underwritten Shelf Takedown in the form of a Block Trade, following receipt of a request for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, the Company shall promptly notify the other Holders of the request and of their right to participate in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown, which shall specify the anticipated public announcement date. The Company shall include in any Underwritten Shelf Takedown the securities requested to be included by any Holder (each a “Takedown Requesting Holder”) at least 48 hours prior to the anticipated public announcement date of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown set forth in the Company notice pursuant to written contractual piggyback registration rights of such Holder (including those set forth herein). All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an Underwritten Shelf Takedown under this subsection 2.3.5 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the Holders initiating the Underwritten Shelf Takedown.

10

2.3.6Reduction of Underwritten Shelf Takedown. If the managing Underwriter(s) in an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, in good faith, advise(s) the Company and the Takedown Requesting Holders in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Takedown Requesting Holders desire to sell, taken together with all other shares of the Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, exceeds the Maximum Number of Securities, then the Company shall include in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, as follows: (i) first, the Registrable Securities of the Takedown Requesting Holders, on a Pro Rata basis, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (ii) and (iii) the Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, for the account of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons or entities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

2.3.7Block Trades. If the Company shall receive a request from a Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities with an estimated market value of at least $5,000,000 that the Company effect the sale of all or any portion of such Registrable Securities in an Underwritten Shelf Takedown in the form of a Block Trade, then the Company shall, as expeditiously as possible, cooperate and effect the offering in such Block Trade of the Registrable Securities for which such requesting Holder has requested such offering, without giving any effect to any required notice periods or delivery of notices to any other Holders.

ARTICLE III

The Company hereby agrees and covenants that it will not grant rights to register any Common Stock (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock) pursuant to the Securities Act that are more favorable, pari passu or senior to those granted to the Holders hereunder without (a) the prior written consent of (i) Perceptive Holders holding at least a majority in interest of the then-outstanding number of Registrable Securities held by all Perceptive Holders in their capacity as Perceptive Holders (provided the Perceptive Holders hold Registrable Securities at such time) and (ii) the Adagio Shareholders (provided the Adagio Shareholders hold Registrable Securities at such time); or (b) granting economically and legally equivalent rights to the Holders hereunder such that the Holders shall receive the benefit of such more favorable or senior terms and/or conditions. Further, the Company represents and warrants that this Agreement supersedes any other registration rights agreement or agreement with similar terms and conditions and in the event of any conflict between any such agreement or agreements and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

ARTICLE IV
INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION

Section 4.1Indemnification.

4.1.1The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and directors and agents and each person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained 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 furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein. The Company shall indemnify the Underwriter(s), their officers and directors and each person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act) such Underwriter(s) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to the indemnification of the Holder.

4.1.2In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act) the Company against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any 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 or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein; 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 actually received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriter(s), their officers, directors and each person who controls (within the meaning of the Securities Act) such Underwriter(s) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the Company.

4.1.3Any person 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, however, that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’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, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim 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. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent 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 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.

14

4.1.4The 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 of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities. The Company 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 (pursuant to subsection 4.1.5) to such party in the event the Company’s or such Holder’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.

4.1.5If the indemnification provided under Section 4.1 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and 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 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 relates to information supplied by, 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 liability of any Holder under this subsection 4.1.5 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds actually 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 subsections 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or 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 subsection 4.1.5 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 subsection 4.1.5. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

4.1.6Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in any underwriting agreement entered into in connection with an underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control.

ARTICLE V
LOCK-UP

Section 5.1Lock-Up.

Each of the parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, (x) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the courts in Delaware as described herein for any reason, (y) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (z) that (i) the action in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such action is improper or (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

Section 7.7Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 7.8Headings; Interpretation. The descriptive headings contained in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. If any ambiguity or question of intent arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party because of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement. Unless the context of this Agreement clearly requires otherwise, use of the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neutral genders and vice versa, and the definitions of terms contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms. The words “includes” or “including” shall mean “including without limitation.” The words “hereof,” “hereby,” “herein,” “hereunder” and similar terms in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not any particular section or article in which such words appear, the word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends and such phrase shall not mean simply “if.” Any reference to a law shall include any rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and shall mean such law as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented.

Section 7.10Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event any provision of this Agreement was not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity.

Section 7.12Waiver. At any time, (i) the Company may (a) extend the time for the performance of any obligation or other act of any Holder, (b) waive any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of any Holder contained herein or in any document delivered by such Holder pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance with any agreement of such Holder or any condition to its own obligations contained herein. At any time, (i) the Holders may (a) extend the time for the performance of any obligation or other act of the Company, (b) waive any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein or in any document delivered by the Company pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance with any agreement of the Company or any condition to their own obligations contained herein.

Section 7.13Further Assurances. At the request of the Company, in the case of any Holder, or at the request of any Holder, in the case of the Company, and without further consideration, each party shall execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered such additional documents and instruments and take such further action as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

19

Exhibit 10.3

SPONSOR LETTER AGREEMENT

This SPONSOR LETTER AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of February 13, 2024, is made by and among Aja HoldCo, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“HoldCo”), ARYA Sciences Holdings IV, an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability (the “ARYA Sponsor”), ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability (“ARYA”), Adagio Medical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), each of Todd Wider, Leslie Trigg and Michael Henderson (collectively, the “Other Class B Shareholders”, and together with the ARYA Sponsor, collectively, the “Class B Shareholders”) and each of Joseph Edelman, Adam Stone, Michael Altman and Konstantin Poukalov (collectively, the “Other Insiders”, and together with the Class B Shareholders, collectively, the “Insiders”). HoldCo, ARYA, the Company and the Insiders shall be referred to herein from time to time collectively as the “Parties”. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below).

WHEREAS, ARYA, the Company, HoldCo and other Persons party thereto entered into that certain Business Combination Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Business Combination Agreement”);

WHEREAS, as of the date of this Agreement, the Class B Shareholders collectively own 3,737,500 ARYA Class B Shares; and

WHEREAS, the Business Combination Agreement contemplates that the Parties will enter into this Agreement concurrently with the entry into the Business Combination Agreement by the parties thereto, pursuant to which, among other things, (a) the ARYA Sponsor and each Other Class B Shareholder will agree to (i) vote in favor of approval of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby (including the Mergers), and (ii) subject to, and conditioned upon and effective as of immediately prior to, the occurrence of the ARYA Merger Effective Time, waive any adjustment to the conversion ratio set forth in the Governing Documents of ARYA or any other anti-dilution or similar protection with respect to all of the ARYA Class B Shares held by him, her or it in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, (b) the ARYA Sponsor and each other Insider will agree, subject to, and conditioned upon and effective as of immediately prior to, the occurrence of the ARYA Merger Effective Time, terminate certain existing agreements or arrangements, (c) the ARYA Sponsor will agree to, subject to, and conditioned upon and effective as of immediately prior to, the occurrence of the ARYA Merger Effective Time, forfeit a number of Sponsor Shares held by it, with such number of Sponsor Shares so forfeited by the ARYA Sponsor being determined pursuant to this Agreement, and (d) the ARYA Sponsor will agree to, subject to, and conditioned upon and effective as of, the ARYA Merger Effective Time, subject 1,147,500 Sponsor Shares held by it to certain vesting conditions, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties, each intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

1. Consent to Business Combination; Agreement to Vote.

a. Pursuant to Section 3 of that certain Letter Agreement, dated as of February 25, 2021 (the “Insider Letter Agreement”), by and among ARYA and the Insiders, the ARYA Sponsor hereby consents to the entry by ARYA into the Business Combination Agreement and each other Ancillary Document to which ARYA is or will be a party (the “ARYA Sponsor Consent”).

b. Each Class B Shareholder (in his, her or its capacity as a shareholder of ARYA and on behalf of himself, herself or itself and not the other Class B Shareholders), by this Agreement, with respect to all ARYA Shares held by him, her or it (together with any other Equity Securities of ARYA that such Class B Shareholder holds of record or beneficially as of the date or this Agreement or acquires record or beneficial ownership of after the date hereof, collectively the “Subject ARYA Equity Securities”), hereby agrees during the term of this Agreement: (i) to vote (or cause to be voted) or execute and deliver written resolutions (or cause written resolutions to be executed and delivered), at any meeting of the shareholders of ARYA, including the ARYA Shareholders Meeting, however called, or any adjournment thereof, or in any other circumstance in which the vote, consent or other approval of the shareholders of ARYA is sought (and appear at any such meeting, in person or by proxy, or otherwise cause all of such Class B Shareholder’s Subject ARYA Equity Securities to be counted as present thereat for purposes of establishing a quorum), all of the Subject ARYA Equity Securities held by such

Class B Shareholder at such time (x) in favor of the approval and adoption of the Transaction Proposals, (y) against any arrangement, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, combination, sale of substantial assets, reorganization, recapitalization, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of or by ARYA (other than the Transactions), and (z) against any matter, action or proposal that would reasonably be expected to result in (1) a breach of any of ARYA’s covenants, agreements or obligations under the Business Combination Agreement, or (2) any of the conditions to the Closing set forth in Sections 6.1 or 6.3 of the Business Combination Agreement not being satisfied; (ii) not to redeem, elect to redeem or tender or subject any of such Class B Shareholder’s Subject ARYA Equity Securities for redemption in connection with the Business Combination Agreement or the Transactions; and (iii) not to enter into any Contract to take any action inconsistent with the foregoing.

2. Waiver of Anti-dilution Protection. Each Class B Shareholder hereby (a) irrevocably and unconditionally waives, subject to, and conditioned upon and effective as of immediately prior to, the occurrence of the ARYA Merger Effective Time for himself, herself or itself and for his, her or its successors, heirs and assigns, to the fullest extent permitted by Law and the Governing Documents of ARYA, and (b) agrees not to assert or perfect, any rights to adjustment or other anti-dilution protections, including as set forth in Article 12 of the Pre-Closing ARYA Articles of Association, with respect to the rate that the ARYA Class B Shares held by him, her or it convert into ARYA Class A Shares in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, and therefore the ARYA Class B Shares held by each Class B Shareholder shall convert into the right to receive HoldCo Shares (or an equivalent Equity Security) at the ARYA Merger Effective Time on a one-to-one basis.

3. Transfer of Shares. Except (x) as expressly contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement or the Ancillary Documents (including the PIPE Subscription Agreements) or (y) with the prior written consent of the Company, from and after the date hereof until the earlier of the Closing or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms, each Class B Shareholder hereby agrees that he, she or it shall not (a) Transfer any of his, her or its Subject ARYA Equity Securities, (b) deposit any of his, her or its Subject ARYA Equity Securities into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement or grant any proxy or execute any power of attorney with respect to any of his, her or its Subject ARYA Equity Securities, in each case, that conflicts with any of the covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, or (c) enter into any Contract, option or other legally binding arrangement or undertaking with respect to the acquisition, sale, legally binding assignment, transfer or other disposition of any of his, her or its Subject ARYA Equity Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to any acquisition, sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition (i) to a Permitted Transferee, (ii) in the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the individual, (iii) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order or (iv) in the case of ARYA Sponsor, by virtue of ARYA Sponsor’s organizational documents upon liquidation or dissolution of the ARYA Sponsor; provided, that, in the case of any direct transfer, the transferring holder shall, and shall cause any transferee of his, her or its Subject ARYA Equity Securities of the type set forth in clauses (i) through (iv), to enter into a written agreement, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, agreeing to be bound by the applicable provisions of this Agreement that are applicable to the transferring holder prior and as a condition to the occurrence of such sale, transfer or other disposition and, from and after the entry into such written agreement, shall be deemed to be a Class B Shareholder for all purposes of this Agreement.

4. Other Covenants. Each Class B Shareholder hereby agrees to be bound by and subject to (i) Sections 5.3(a) (Confidentiality) and Section 5.4 (Public Announcements) of the Business Combination Agreement to the same extent as such provisions apply to the parties to the Business Combination Agreement, as if such Class B Shareholder is directly a party thereto, and (ii) the first sentence of Section 5.6(b) (Exclusive Dealing) of the Business Combination Agreement (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the hanging paragraph at the end of Section 5.6 of the Business Combination Agreement as it pertains to Section 5.6(b) of the Business Combination Agreement) to the same extent as such provisions apply to ARYA, as if such Class B Shareholder is directly party thereto.

5. Termination of Existing Lock-Up. Each of the Insiders and ARYA hereby agrees that, subject to, and conditioned upon and effective as of the ARYA Merger Effective Time, Section 5 of the Insider Letter Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“5. Reserved.”

2

Each of the Parties further acknowledges and agrees, for the avoidance of doubt, that none of the Insiders shall be subject to any of the restrictions or obligations set forth in Section 5 of the Insider Letter Agreement from and after the ARYA Merger Effective Time and that as of such time, the Insiders will be bound by the lock-up restrictions set forth in Section V of the Investor Rights Agreement.

6. ARYA Sponsor Share Forfeiture. Subject to, and conditioned upon and effective as of immediately prior to, the occurrence of ARYA Merger Effective Time, the ARYA Sponsor shall automatically be deemed to irrevocably forfeit, surrender and transfer to ARYA for no consideration a number of Sponsor Shares held by it immediately prior to the ARYA Merger Effective Time equal to the ARYA Sponsor Forfeited Share Amount (such Sponsor Shares so forfeited, the “ARYA Sponsor Forfeited Shares”). The ARYA Sponsor hereby agrees to take, and authorizes ARYA to take, such actions as shall be necessary to evidence such forfeiture and surrender, if applicable, of the ARYA Sponsor Forfeited Shares, subject to, conditioned upon and effective as of immediately prior to the ARYA Merger Effective Time. If, between the date of this Agreement and immediately prior to the ARYA Merger Effective Time the outstanding ARYA Class B Shares shall have been changed into a different number or a different class of shares, by reason of any divided, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination or exchange, or any similar event shall have occurred (including any of the foregoing in connection with the ARYA Merger), then the number of ARYA Sponsor Forfeited Shares, will be equitably adjusted to reflect such change. From and after the occurrence of the forfeiture contemplated by this Section 6, the ARYA Sponsor Forfeited Shares shall be deemed to be cancelled and no longer outstanding.

7. ARYA Sponsor Earn-Out Shares.

a. Subject to, and conditioned upon and effective as of, the occurrence of the ARYA Merger Effective Time, 1,147,500 of the Sponsor Shares held by the ARYA Sponsor as of such time shall be subject to the provisions set forth in this Section 7 (such Sponsor Shares, the “Earn-Out Shares”).

b. Subject to, and conditioned upon and effective as of the occurrence of, the ARYA Merger Effective Time, the Earn-Out Shares shall be unvested and subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 7. Following the ARYA Merger Effective Time, if, at any time during the period following the ARYA Merger Effective Time and expiring on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Earn-Out Period”), the Stock Price of the HoldCo Shares equals or exceeds $24.00 per share (the “Trigger Price”) for any 20 Trading Days within any 30 Trading Day period from and after the Closing Date (the “Earn-Out Target”), the Earn-Out Shares shall automatically vest and become free of the provisions of this Section 7. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if a HoldCo Sale occurs at any time during the Earn-Out Period, then, immediately prior to the consummation of such HoldCo Sale, the Earn-Out Target shall be deemed satisfied and the Earn-Out Shares shall automatically vest and become free of the provisions set forth in this Section 7.

c. The ARYA Sponsor may, at any time after the ARYA Merger Effective Time, engage in any Transfer with respect to any Earn-Out Shares to a Permitted Transferee of ARYA Sponsor, to another Insider or, only with the express written consent of the HoldCo Board in its sole discretion, to another Person, subject to any applicable “lock-up” in the Investor Rights Agreement and in compliance with applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, (i) (A) any such Transfer of Earn-Out Shares by the ARYA Sponsor (or, for the avoidance of doubt, any subsequent Transfer of Earn-Out Shares by a transferee that received Earn-Out Shares pursuant to a Transfer under this Section 7(c)) shall remain subject to this Section 7 and the terms of any applicable “lock-up” in the Investor Rights Agreement and (B) the transferee shall, in addition to any requirements in the Investor Rights Agreement, agree in writing that he, she or it is receiving and holding such Earn-Out Shares subject to the provisions of this Section 7 (provided that the provisions of this subclause (B) shall not apply in the event of a Transfer that consists solely of a pledge or encumbrance pursuant to which the transferee does not hold the Earn-Out Shares) and (ii) from and after a Transfer pursuant to this Section 7(c), all references to the ARYA Sponsor in this Section 7 shall include the transferee of a Transfer of Earn-Out Shares pursuant to this Section 7(c) and shall collectively mean the ARYA Sponsor (to the extent that it then holds Earn-Out Shares) and each transferee of Earn-Out Shares (in each case, to the extent he, she or it then holds Earn-Out Shares). Each transferee of Earn-Out Shares pursuant to this Section 7(c) shall be a third party beneficiary of this Section 7.

d. The Earn-Out Shares and the Trigger Price (and all references to Stock Price and HoldCo Shares, to the extent related to this Section 7) shall each be adjusted appropriately to reflect the effect of any share split, reverse share split, share dividend (including any dividend or other distribution of securities convertible into

3

HoldCo Shares), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to the HoldCo Shares (or any other Equity Securities into which they are adjusted pursuant to this Section 7(d)) at any time prior to the vesting of the Earn-Out Shares pursuant to this Section 7 so as to provide the holders of the Earn-Out Shares with the same economic effect as contemplated by this Section 7 prior to such event and as so adjusted shall, from and after the date of such event, be the Earn-Out Shares, the Trigger Price, the Stock Price and HoldCo Shares, as applicable.

e. From and after the Closing, HoldCo shall take all necessary or appropriate actions, and shall otherwise use reasonable best efforts, to remain listed as a public company on, and for the Earn-Out Shares to be tradable over, NASDAQ or any other nationally recognized U.S. stock exchange; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit HoldCo or any of its Affiliates from consummating a HoldCo Sale or entering into a definitive agreement that contemplates a HoldCo Sale. Subject to Section 7(b) and the other applicable provisions of this Section 7 (including Section 7(f)), upon the consummation of a HoldCo Sale, HoldCo shall have no further obligations under this Section 7(e).

f. From and after the vesting of the Earn-Out Shares, HoldCo shall take (or cause to be taken) all necessary or appropriate actions to evidence the ownership by the ARYA Sponsor (or its transferees permitted pursuant to Section 7(c)) of the Earn-Out Shares, including, without limitation, through the provision of an updated securities registry showing such ownership (as certified by an officer of HoldCo responsible for maintaining such registry or the applicable registrar or transfer agent of HoldCo). At or prior to the time that the Earn-Out Shares become vested pursuant to this Section 7, HoldCo shall remove (or cause to be removed) any legends, stock transfer restrictions, stop transfer orders or similar restrictions with respect to the Earn-Out Shares related to such vesting or this Agreement (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, those that specifically relate to any applicable and then-existing Lock-Up Period (as defined in the Investor Rights Agreement) with respect to such Earn-Out Shares).

g. If the Earn-Out Target is not achieved or a HoldCo Sale is not consummated on or prior to the end of the Earn-Out Period, the Earn-Out Shares shall automatically be forfeited and cancelled, and the ARYA Sponsor shall surrender to HoldCo for cancellation, the Earn-Out Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, in the event that HoldCo enters into any merger agreement, purchase agreement, or other definitive documents with respect to a HoldCo Sale prior to the end of the Earn-Out Period (as may be extended from time to time pursuant to the terms hereof), the Earn-Out Period shall be tolled during the time period beginning upon the execution and delivery of such transaction agreement or definitive documents and ending upon the earlier to occur of (i) the closing of such HoldCo Sale transaction (in which case the Earn-Out Shares shall automatically vest in accordance with Section 7(b)), and (ii) the final termination of such transaction agreement or definitive documents (in which case the duration and ending date of the Earn-Out Period shall each be extended by an equivalent amount of time).

h. The ARYA Sponsor shall retain its rights as a stockholder of HoldCo with respect to the Earn-Out Shares owned by it during any period of time that such shares are subject to restriction on transfer or sale hereunder, including the right to vote any such shares and the right to receive dividends and other distributions with respect to such Earn-Out Shares prior to vesting.

i. The ARYA Sponsor shall make a protective election under Section 83(b) of the Code with respect to the Earn-Out Shares.

j. The Parties agree and acknowledge that the Earn-Out Shares are intended to constitute “voting stock” (within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder) and “stock” (within the meaning of Section 351 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder) received by ARYA Sponsor in connection with the ARYA Merger, and shall file all Tax Returns consistent with, and take no position inconsistent with (whether in audits, Tax Returns or otherwise) such treatment unless (i) such Party receives written confirmation from Kirkland & Ellis LLP to the effect that such law firm is unable to conclude that such treatment is more likely than not correct, provided that such Party shall use reasonable best efforts to cause such law firm to reach such conclusion (including by providing customary factual representations and covenants to such law firm); provided, further, that, for the avoidance of doubt, HoldCo shall not be required to restructure, or otherwise alter the terms of, the transaction as provided for in this Agreement or the Business Combination Agreement, or (ii) otherwise required by a final “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code.

13. Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any action for breach of this Agreement may only be made against, the Parties, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, none of the Representatives of any Party shall have any Liability arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the negotiation hereof or its subject matter or the transactions contemplated hereby, including with respect to any claim (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) for breach of this Agreement or in respect of any written or oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith, except as expressly provided herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) in no event shall any Insider have any obligations or Liabilities related to or arising out of the covenants, agreements or obligations of any other Insider under this Agreement (including related to or arising out of the breach of any such covenant, agreement or obligation by any other Insider), and (ii) in no event shall ARYA have any obligations or Liabilities related to or arising out of the covenants, agreements or obligations of any Insider under this Agreement (including related to or arising out of any breach of any such covenant, agreement or obligation by any such Insider).

14. Fiduciary Duties. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (a) each Class B Shareholder makes no agreement or understanding herein in any capacity other than in such Class B Shareholder’s capacity as a record holder and beneficial owner of ARYA Shares, and not, in the case of any Insider, in such Insider’s capacity as a director, officer or employee of ARYA or any of its Affiliates (including HoldCo), and (b) nothing herein will be construed to limit or affect any action or inaction by any Insider or any representative of the any Insider serving as a member of the board of directors (or other similar governing body) of ARYA or any of its Affiliates (including HoldCo) or as an officer, employee or fiduciary of ARYA or any of its Affiliates (including HoldCo), in each case, acting in such person’s capacity as a director, officer, employee or fiduciary of ARYA or such Affiliate.

15. No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as set forth in Section 3 or Section 7, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to, nor shall be construed, to give any Person, other than the Parties and their respective successors and assigns, any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall constitute the Parties, partners or participants in a joint venture.

16. Remedies. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any and all remedies provided herein will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any Party does not perform his, her or its respective obligations under the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise breach such provisions. It is accordingly agreed that each Party shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in each case, without posting a bond or undertaking and without proof of damages and this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on the basis that the other Parties have an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity.

17. Fees and Expenses. Except, in the case of ARYA, HoldCo and the Company, as otherwise expressly set forth in the Business Combination Agreement (include Section 7.2(b) thereof), all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the fees and disbursements of counsel, financial advisors and accountants, shall be paid by the Party incurring such fees or expenses; provided, that, any such fees and expenses incurred by the Insiders on or prior to the Closing shall, in the sole discretion of the ARYA Sponsor, be allocated to ARYA and deemed to be fees and expenses of ARYA.

18. No Ownership Interest. Nothing contained in this Agreement will be deemed to vest in the Company or any of its Affiliates or ARYA or any its Affiliates any direct or indirect ownership or incidents of ownership of or with respect to the ARYA Shares held by any Class B Shareholder. All rights, ownership and economic benefits of and relating to the applicable ARYA Shares shall remain vested in and belong to each applicable Class B Shareholder, and the Company and ARYA (and each of their respective Affiliates) shall have no authority to exercise any power or authority to direct any Insider in the voting of any of the ARYA Shares owned by him, her or it (if any), except

11

as otherwise expressly provided herein with respect to the ARYA Shares owned by him, her or it (if any). Except as otherwise set forth in Section 1(b), no Class B Shareholder shall be restricted from voting in favor of, against or abstaining with respect to any other matters presented to the shareholders of ARYA.

19. Amendments and Waivers; Assignment. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or modified if, and only if, such amendment or modification is in writing and signed by the Parties, and any provision of this Agreement may be waived if, and only if, such waiver is in writing and signed by the Party(ies) against whom such waiver is sought. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any other right hereunder. Subject to Section 15, none of this Agreement or any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assignable by (a) an Insider without the prior written consent of ARYA, HoldCo, the other Insiders and the Company, (b) the Company without the prior written consent of the ARYA Sponsor and ARYA, (c) ARYA without the prior written consent of the ARYA Sponsor, HoldCo and the Company, or (d) HoldCo without the prior written consent of ARYA and the Company (any such consent contemplated by the foregoing clauses (a) – (d) not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Any attempted amendment or assignment of this Agreement not in accordance with the terms of this Section 19 shall be null and void ab initio.

Any notice, requests, claims, demands and other communications hereunder shall be sent in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given by delivery in person, by email (having obtained electronic delivery confirmation thereof (i.e., an electronic record of the sender that the email was sent to the intended recipient thereof without an “error” or similar message that such email was not received by such intended recipient)), or by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested) (upon receipt thereof) to the other Parties as follows:

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, prior to the Closing, the Shareholder shall vote (and cause to be voted) the Subject Company Shares against and withhold consent or approval with respect to any matter, action or proposal that would reasonably be expected to result in (X) a breach of any of the Company’s covenants, agreements or obligations under the Business Combination Agreement, or (Y) any of the conditions to the Closing set forth in Sections 6.1 or 6.2 of the Business Combination Agreement not being satisfied.

2. Other Covenants and Agreements.

(b) The Shareholder hereby agrees to be bound by and subject to (i) Sections 5.3(a) (Confidentiality) and 5.4(a) (Public Announcements) of the Business Combination Agreement to the same extent as such provisions apply to the parties to the Business Combination Agreement, as if the Shareholder is directly party thereto, (ii) the first sentence of Section 5.6(a) (Exclusive Dealing) (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the hanging paragraph at the end of Section 5.6 of the Business Combination Agreement as it pertains to Section 5.6(b) of the Business Combination Agreement) and Section 8.18 (Trust Account Waiver) of the Business Combination Agreement to the same extent as such provisions apply to the Company, as if the Shareholder is directly party thereto.

(d) The Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that each of ARYA and the Company has entered into the Business Combination Agreement in reliance upon the Shareholder entering into this Agreement and agreeing to be bound by, and perform, or otherwise comply with, as applicable, the agreements, covenants and obligations contained in this Agreement and but for the Shareholder entering into this Agreement and agreeing to be bound

(e) The Shareholder, solely in connection with and only for the purpose of the Transactions, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) agrees that the Transactions shall not be deemed to constitute a Liquidating Transaction (as used herein, as defined in the Company Certificate of Incorporation) and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any rights he, she or it may have under the Company Certificate of Incorporation, or any other agreement to which the Shareholder is a party, if the Transactions were deemed to constitute a Liquidating Transaction, including any notice rights thereunder, and (ii) hereby waives any rights he, she or it may have under any of the agreements set forth on Schedule B with respect to the Transactions.

(f) The Shareholder acknowledges that the Company may need to amend the Company Certificate of Incorporation to increase the authorized number of shares of the class of stock into which the Company Preferred Shares or the Company’s currently outstanding convertible promissory notes are to be converted (the “Share Increase”) and, in connection with a conversion of any class of Company Preferred Shares or the Company’s currently outstanding convertible promissory notes, hereby agrees to take any actions reasonably requested by the Company to effect the Share Increase, including the amendment of the Company Certificate of Incorporation (which may be included in the Company Shareholder Written Consent).

(d) None of the execution or delivery of this Agreement by the Shareholder, the performance by the Shareholder of any of his, her or its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, those covenants, agreements and obligations under this Agreement that relate to the provisions of the Business Combination Agreement) or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or the Transactions will, directly or indirectly (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) (i) if the Shareholder is not an individual, result in any breach of any provision of the Shareholder’s Governing Documents, (ii) result in a violation or breach of, or constitute a default or give rise to any right of termination, Consent, cancellation, amendment, modification, suspension, revocation or acceleration under, any of the terms,

3

(e) The Shareholder is the record and beneficial owner of the Subject Company Shares and has valid, good and marketable title to the Subject Company Shares, free and clear of all Liens (other than transfer restrictions under applicable Securities Laws or as set forth in the Governing Documents of the Company or any Company Shareholders Agreement). Except for the Equity Securities of the Company set forth on Schedule A hereto, together with any other Equity Securities of the Company that the Shareholder acquires record or beneficial ownership after the date hereof that is either permitted pursuant to or acquired in accordance with Section 5.1(b)(v) of the Business Combination Agreement, the Shareholder does not own, beneficially or of record, any Equity Securities of any Group Company or have the right to acquire any Equity Securities of any Group Company. The Shareholder has the sole right to vote (and provide consent in respect of, as applicable) the Subject Company Shares and, except for this Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement and the Company Shareholders Agreement, the Shareholder is not party to or bound by (i) any option, warrant, purchase right, or other Contract that would (either alone or in connection with one or more events, developments or events (including the satisfaction or waiver of any conditions precedent)) require the Shareholder to Transfer any of the Subject Company Shares or (ii) any voting trust, proxy or other Contract with respect to the voting or Transfer of any of the Subject Company Shares that would adversely affect the ability of the Shareholder to perform, or otherwise comply with, any of his, her or its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement in any material respect.

Exhibit 10.5

2024 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

ARTICLE 1.

 

PURPOSE

This 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) was adopted by the Board of Directors of Aja HoldCo, Inc. (the “Company”) on July 26, 2024. The purpose of the Plan is to promote the success and enhance the value of the Company by linking the individual interests of the members of the Board, Employees, and Consultants to those of Company stockholders and by providing such individuals with an incentive for outstanding performance to generate superior returns to Company stockholders. The Plan is further intended to provide flexibility to the Company in its ability to motivate, attract, and retain the services of members of the Board, Employees, and Consultants upon whose judgment, interest, and special effort the successful conduct of the Company’s operation is largely dependent.

ARTICLE 2.

 

DEFINITIONS AND CONSTRUCTION

2.1 “Administrator” shall mean the entity that conducts the general administration of the Plan as provided in Article 13. With reference to the duties of the Committee under the Plan which have been delegated to one or more persons pursuant to Section 13.6, or as to which the Board has assumed, the term “Administrator” shall refer to such person(s) unless the Committee or the Board has revoked such delegation or the Board has terminated the assumption of such duties.

2.7 “Cause” with respect to a Holder means “Cause” (or any term of similar effect) as defined in such Holder’s employment agreement with the Company if such an agreement exists and contains a definition of Cause (or term of similar effect), or, if no such agreement exists or such agreement does not contain a definition of Cause (or term of similar effect), then Cause shall include, but not be limited to: (i) the Holder’s willful failure to perform their duties and responsibilities to the Company or deliberate violation of a Company policy; (ii) the Holder’s commission of any act of fraud, embezzlement, dishonesty, or any other willful misconduct that has caused or could reasonably be expected to result in injury or harm to the Company; (iii) unauthorized use or disclosure by the Holder of any proprietary information or trade secrets of the Company or any other party to whom the Holder owes an obligation of nondisclosure as a result of their relationship with the Company; (iv) the Holder’s willful breach of any of their obligations under any written agreement or covenant with the Company; (v) the Holder’s commission of, or plea of guilty or no contest to, a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude or the commission of any other act

The determination as to whether a Holder is being terminated for Cause shall be made in good faith by the Company and shall be final and binding on the Holder. The foregoing definition does not in any way limit the Company’s ability to terminate a Holder’s employment or consulting relationship at any time as provided in the Plan, and the term “Company” will be interpreted to include any subsidiary, parent, or affiliate, as appropriate.

2.8 “Change in Control” means and includes each of the following, unless provided otherwise in a Holder’s applicable Award Agreement:

(i) which results in the Company’s voting securities outstanding immediately before the transaction continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the Company or the person that, as a result of the transaction, controls, directly or indirectly, the Company or owns, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or otherwise succeeds to the business of the Company (the Company or such person, the “Successor Entity”)) directly or indirectly, at least a majority of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity’s outstanding voting securities immediately after the transaction, and

(ii) after which no person or group beneficially owns voting securities representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity; provided, however, that no person or group shall be treated for purposes of this Section 2.8(c)(ii) as beneficially owning fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity solely as a result of the voting power held in the Company prior to the consummation of the transaction; and

(iii) after which at least a majority of the members of the board of directors (or the analogous governing body) of the Successor Entity were Board members at the time of the Board’s approval of the execution of the initial agreement providing for such transaction; or

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change in Control constitutes a payment event with respect to any Award (or any portion of an Award) that provides for the deferral of compensation that is subject to Section 409A, to the extent required to avoid the imposition of additional taxes under Section 409A, the transaction or event described in subsection (a), (b), (c), or (d) with respect to such Award (or portion thereof) shall only constitute a Change in Control for purposes of the payment timing of such Award if such transaction also constitutes a “change in control event,” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5).

The Administrator shall have full and final authority, which shall be exercised in its sole discretion, to determine conclusively whether a Change in Control has occurred pursuant to the above definition, the date of the occurrence

2

of such Change in Control, and any incidental matters relating thereto; provided that any exercise of authority in conjunction with a determination of whether a Change in Control is a “change in control event” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) shall be consistent with such regulation.

SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

3.1 Number of Shares.

(a) Subject to Sections 14.1, 14.2, and 3.1(b), the aggregate number of Shares which may be issued or transferred pursuant to Awards under the Plan shall be equal to the sum of (i) 4,472,593 Shares and (ii) an annual increase on the first day of each year beginning in 2025 and ending in (and including) 2034 equal to the lesser of (A) five percent (5%) of the Shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year and (B) such smaller number of Shares as determined by the Board or the Committee (such sum, the “Share Limit”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to Sections 14.1, 14.2, and 3.1(b), the aggregate maximum number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options is 4,472,593 Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted under Applicable Law, Awards that provide for the delivery of Shares subsequent to the applicable grant date may be granted in excess of the Share Limit if such Awards provide for the forfeiture or cash settlement of such Awards to the extent that insufficient Shares remain under the Share Limit in this Section 3.1(a) at the time that Shares would otherwise be issued in respect of such Award.

6

(b) If any Shares subject to an Award are forfeited or expire or such Award is settled for cash (in whole or in part), the Shares subject to such Award shall, to the extent of such forfeiture, expiration, or cash settlement, again be available for future grants of Awards under the Plan. In addition, until the termination of the Plan, the following Shares shall be available for future grants of Awards under the Plan: (i) Shares tendered by a Holder or withheld by the Company in payment of the exercise price of an Option; (ii) Shares tendered by the Holder or withheld by the Company to satisfy any tax withholding obligation with respect to an Award; and (iii) Shares subject to Stock Appreciation Rights that are not issued in connection with the stock settlement of the Stock Appreciation Rights on exercise thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Shares purchased on the open market with the cash proceeds from the exercise of Options shall not be available for future grants of Awards. Until the termination of the Plan, any Shares repurchased by the Company under Section 7.4 or 9.4 hereof at the same price paid by the Holder or a lower price so that such Shares are returned to the Company will again be available for Awards. The payment of Dividend Equivalents in cash in conjunction with any outstanding Awards shall not be counted against the Shares available for issuance under the Plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3.1(b), no Shares may again be optioned, granted, or awarded if such action would cause an Incentive Stock Option to fail to qualify as an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Code.

(c) Substitute Awards shall not reduce the Shares authorized for grant under the Plan, except as may be required by reason of Section 422 of the Code. Additionally, in the event that a company acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary or with which the Company or any Subsidiary combines has shares available under a pre-existing plan approved by its stockholders and not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or combination, the shares available for grant pursuant to the terms of such pre-existing plan (as adjusted, to the extent appropriate, using the exchange ratio or other adjustment or valuation ratio or formula used in such acquisition or combination to determine the consideration payable to the holders of common stock of the entities party to such acquisition or combination) may be used for Awards under the Plan and shall not reduce the Shares authorized for grant under the Plan; provided that Awards using such available Shares shall not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made under the terms of the pre-existing plan, absent the acquisition or combination, and shall only be made to individuals who were not employed by or providing services to the Company or its Subsidiaries immediately prior to such acquisition or combination.

ARTICLE 4.

 

GRANTING OF AWARDS

4.1 Participation. The Administrator may, from time to time, select from among all Eligible Individuals those to whom an Award shall be granted and shall determine the nature and amount of each Award, which shall not be inconsistent with the requirements of the Plan. Except for any Non-Employee Director’s right to Awards that may be required pursuant to the Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Policy as described in Section 4.6, no Eligible Individual or other person shall have any right to be granted an Award pursuant to the Plan and neither the Company nor the Administrator is obligated to treat Eligible Individuals, Holders, or any other persons uniformly. Participation by each Holder in the Plan shall be voluntary and nothing in the Plan or any Program shall be construed as mandating that any Eligible Individual or other person shall participate in the Plan.

4.2 Award Agreement. Each Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that sets forth the terms, conditions, and limitations for such Award as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion (consistent with the requirements of the Plan and any applicable Program).

4.4 At-Will Service. Nothing in the Plan or in any Program or Award Agreement hereunder shall confer upon any Holder any right to continue in the employ of, or as a Director or Consultant for, the Company or any Subsidiary, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Company and any Subsidiary, which rights are hereby

7

expressly reserved, to discharge any Holder at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause, and with or without notice, or to terminate or change all other terms and conditions of employment or engagement, except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in a written agreement between the Holder and the Company or any Subsidiary.

4.5 Foreign Holders. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or applicable Program to the contrary, in order to comply with the laws in countries other than the United States in which the Company and its Subsidiaries operate or have Employees, Non-Employee Directors, or Consultants, or in order to comply with the requirements of any foreign securities exchange or other Applicable Law, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall have the power and authority to: (a) determine which Subsidiaries shall be covered by the Plan; (b) determine which Eligible Individuals outside the United States are eligible to participate in the Plan; (c) modify the terms and conditions of any Award granted to Eligible Individuals outside the United States to comply with Applicable Law (including, without limitation, applicable foreign laws or listing requirements of any foreign securities exchange); (d) establish subplans and modify exercise procedures and other terms and procedures, to the extent such actions may be necessary or advisable; provided, however, that no such subplans and/or modifications shall increase the Share Limit or the Director Limit; and (e) take any action, before or after an Award is made, that it deems advisable to obtain approval or comply with any necessary local governmental regulatory exemptions or approvals or listing requirements of any foreign securities exchange.

4.6 Non-Employee Director Awards.

(a) Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Policy. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may provide that Awards granted to Non-Employee Directors shall be granted pursuant to a written nondiscretionary formula established by the Administrator (the “Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Policy”), subject to the limitations of the Plan. The Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Policy shall set forth the type of Award(s) to be granted to Non-Employee Directors, the number of Shares to be subject to Non-Employee Director Awards, the conditions on which such Awards shall be granted, become exercisable, and/or payable and expire, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine in its sole discretion. The Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Policy may be modified by the Administrator from time to time in its sole discretion.

(b) Director Limit. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Plan or in the Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Policy, the value (determined as of the grant date in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, or any successor thereto) of cash- and equity-based Awards granted to a Non-Employee Director as compensation for services as a Non-Employee Director during any fiscal year of the Company may not exceed $750,000, increased to $1,000,000 in the fiscal year of their initial service as a Non-Employee Director (the applicable amount, the “Director Limit”); provided that the Director Limit shall be applied without regard to Awards, if any, granted to a Non-Employee Director during any period in which such individual was an employee of the Company or was otherwise providing services to the Company other than in the capacity as a Non-Employee Director.

ARTICLE 5.

 

GRANTING OF OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

5.1 Granting of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights to Eligible Individuals. The Administrator is authorized to grant Options and Stock Appreciation Rights to Eligible Individuals from time to time, in its sole discretion, on such terms and conditions as it may determine, which shall not be inconsistent with the Plan.

5.2 Qualification of Incentive Stock Options. The Administrator may grant Options intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options only to employees of the Company, any of the Company’s present or future “parent corporations” or “subsidiary corporations” as defined in Sections 424(e) or (f) of the Code, respectively, and any other entities the employees of which are eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options under the Code. No person who qualifies as a Greater Than 10% Stockholder may be granted an Incentive Stock Option unless such Incentive Stock Option conforms to the applicable provisions of Section 422 of the Code. To the extent that the aggregate fair market value of stock with respect to which “incentive stock options” (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, but without regard to Section 422(d) of the Code) are exercisable for the first time by a Holder during any calendar year under the Plan, and all other plans of the Company and any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation thereof (as defined in Section 424(e) and 424(f) of the Code, respectively), exceeds $100,000, the Options shall be treated as

8

Non-Qualified Stock Options to the extent required by Section 422 of the Code. The rule set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall be applied by taking Options and other “incentive stock options” into account in the order in which they were granted and the fair market value of stock shall be determined as of the time the respective options were granted. Any interpretations and rules under the Plan with respect to Incentive Stock Options shall be consistent with the provisions of Section 422 of the Code. Neither the Company nor the Administrator shall have any liability to a Holder, or any other person, (a) if an Option (or any part thereof) which is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option fails to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option or (b) for any action or omission by the Company or the Administrator that causes an Option not to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, including without limitation, the conversion of an Incentive Stock Option to a Non-Qualified Stock Option or the grant of an Option intended as an Incentive Stock Option that fails to satisfy the requirements under the Code applicable to an Incentive Stock Option.

5.3 Option and Stock Appreciation Right Exercise Price. The exercise price per Share subject to each Option and Stock Appreciation Right shall be set by the Administrator, but shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable, is granted (or, as to Incentive Stock Options, on the date the Option is modified, extended, or renewed for purposes of Section 424(h) of the Code). In addition, in the case of Incentive Stock Options granted to a Greater Than 10% Stockholder, such price shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Option is granted (or the date the Option is modified, extended, or renewed for purposes of Section 424(h) of the Code). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right that is a Substitute Award, the exercise price per share of the Shares subject to such Option or Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable, may be less than the Fair Market Value per share on the date of grant; provided that the exercise price of any Substitute Award shall be determined in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 424 and 409A of the Code.

5.4 Option and SAR Terms. The term of each Option (the “Option Term”) and the term of each Stock Appreciation Right (the “SAR Term”) shall be set by the Administrator in its sole discretion; provided, however, that the Option Term or SAR Term, as applicable, shall not be more than (a) ten (10) years from the date the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable, is granted to an Eligible Individual (other than a Greater Than 10% Stockholder), or (b) five (5) years from the date an Incentive Stock Option is granted to a Greater Than 10% Stockholder. Except as limited by the requirements of Section 409A or Section 422 of the Code and regulations and rulings thereunder or the first sentence of this Section 5.4 and without limiting the Company’s rights under Section 12.7, the Administrator may extend the Option Term of any outstanding Option or the SAR Term of any outstanding Stock Appreciation Right, and may extend the time period during which vested Options or Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised, in connection with any Termination of Service of the Holder or otherwise, and may amend, subject to Section 12.7 and 14.1, any other term or condition of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right relating to such Termination of Service of the Holder or otherwise.

5.5 Option and SAR Vesting. The period during which the right to exercise, in whole or in part, an Option or Stock Appreciation Right vests in the Holder shall be set by the Administrator and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator in the Award Agreement, the applicable Program, or by action of the Administrator following the grant of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, (a) no portion of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right which is unexercisable at a Holder’s Termination of Service shall thereafter become exercisable and (b) the portion of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right that is unexercisable at a Holder’s Termination of Service shall automatically expire on the date of such Termination of Service.

5.6 Substitution of Stock Appreciation Rights. The Administrator may provide in the applicable Program or Award Agreement evidencing the grant of an Option that the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to substitute a Stock Appreciation Right for such Option at any time prior to or upon exercise of such Option; provided that such Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable with respect to the same number of Shares for which such substituted Option would have been exercisable, and shall also have the same exercise price, vesting schedule, and remaining term as the substituted Option.

ARTICLE 6.

Payment of the amounts payable with respect to Stock

6.2 Manner of Exercise. Except as set forth in Section 6.3, all or a portion of an exercisable Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be deemed exercised upon delivery of all of the following to the Secretary of the Company, the stock plan administrator of the Company, or such other person or entity designated by the Administrator, or their or its office, as applicable:

(a) A written or electronic notice complying with the applicable rules established by the Administrator stating that the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, or a portion thereof, is exercised.

(b) Such representations and documents as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable to effect compliance with Applicable Law.

(c) In the event that the Option shall be exercised pursuant to Section 12.3 by any person or persons other than the Holder, appropriate proof of the right of such person or persons to exercise the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator; and

(d) Full payment of the exercise price and applicable withholding taxes for the Shares with respect to which the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, or portion thereof, is exercised, in a manner permitted by the Administrator in accordance with Sections 12.1 and 12.2.

The Holder shall give the Company prompt written or electronic notice of any disposition of Shares acquired by exercise of an Incentive Stock Option which occurs within (a) two years from the date of grant (including the date the Option is modified, extended, or renewed for purposes of Section 424(h) of the Code) of such Option to such Holder or (b) one year after the date of transfer of such Shares to such Holder. Such notice shall specify the date of such disposition or other transfer and the amount realized, in cash, other property, assumption of indebtedness, or other consideration, by the Holder in such disposition or other transfer.

The Administrator is authorized to grant Performance Stock to Eligible Individuals, and shall determine the terms and conditions, including the performance conditions and restrictions applicable to each award of Performance Stock, which terms and conditions shall not be inconsistent with the Plan or any applicable Program, and may impose such conditions on the issuance of such Performance Stock as it deems appropriate. The Administrator shall establish the purchase price, if any, and form of payment for Performance Stock; provided, however, that if a purchase price is charged, such purchase price shall be no less than the par value, if any, of the Shares to be purchased, unless otherwise permitted by Applicable Law. In all cases, legal consideration shall be required for each issuance of Performance Stock to the extent required by Applicable Law.

7.2 Rights as Stockholders. Subject to Section 7.4, upon issuance of Performance Stock, the Holder shall have, unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, all the rights of a stockholder with respect to said Shares, subject to the restrictions in the Plan, any applicable Program, and/or the applicable Award Agreement, including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions paid or made with respect to the Shares to the extent such dividends and other distributions have a record date that is on or after the date on which the Holder to whom such Performance Stock are granted becomes the record holder of such Performance Stock; provided, however, that, in the sole discretion of the Administrator, any extraordinary distributions with respect to the Shares may be subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 7.3. In addition, dividends which are paid prior to vesting shall only be paid out to the Holder to the extent that the performance-based vesting conditions are subsequently satisfied and the share of Performance Stock vests.

7.3 Restrictions. All shares of Performance Stock (including any shares received by Holders thereof with respect to shares of Performance Stock as a result of stock dividends, stock splits, or any other form of recapitalization) shall be subject to such restrictions and vesting requirements as the Administrator shall provide in

10

the applicable Program or Award Agreement. By action taken after the Performance Stock is issued, the Administrator may, on such terms and conditions as it may determine to be appropriate, accelerate the vesting of such Performance Stock by removing any or all of the restrictions imposed by the terms of the applicable Program or Award Agreement.

7.4 Repurchase or Forfeiture of Performance Stock. Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, if no price was paid by the Holder for the Performance Stock, upon a Termination of Service during the applicable restriction period, the Holder’s rights in unvested Performance Stock then subject to restrictions shall lapse, and such Performance Stock shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled without consideration on the date of such Termination of Service. If a price was paid by the Holder for the Performance Stock, upon a Termination of Service during the applicable restriction period, the Company shall have the right to repurchase from the Holder the unvested Performance Stock then subject to restrictions at a cash price per share equal to the price paid by the Holder for such Performance Stock or such other amount as may be specified in the applicable Program or Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may provide that upon certain events, including, without limitation, a Change in Control; the Holder’s death, retirement, or disability; or any other specified Termination of Service or any other event, the Holder’s rights in unvested Performance Stock then subject to restrictions shall not lapse, such Performance Stock shall vest and cease to be forfeitable and, if applicable, the Company shall cease to have a right of repurchase.

7.5 Section 83(b) Election. If a Holder makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed with respect to the Performance Stock as of the date of transfer of the Performance Stock rather than as of the date or dates upon which the Holder would otherwise be taxable under Section 83(a) of the Code, the Holder shall be required to deliver a copy of such election to the Company promptly after filing such election with the Internal Revenue Service along with proof of the timely filing thereof with the Internal Revenue Service.

On the settlement date, the Company shall, in accordance with the applicable Award Agreement and subject to Section 12.4(f), transfer to the Holder one unrestricted, fully transferable Share for each Performance Stock Unit scheduled to be paid out on such date and not previously forfeited, or in the sole discretion of the Administrator, an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the settlement date or a combination of cash and Common Stock as determined by the Administrator.

8.4 Settlement upon Termination of Service. An Award of Performance Stock Units shall only vest and be settled while the Holder is an Employee, a Consultant, or a Director, as applicable; provided, however, that the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may provide (in an Award Agreement or otherwise) that a Performance Stock Unit award may vest and be settled subsequent to a Termination of Service in certain events, including a Change in Control; the Holder’s death, retirement, or disability; or any other specified Termination of Service.

The Administrator is authorized to grant Restricted Stock to Eligible Individuals, and shall determine the terms and conditions, including the restrictions applicable to each award of Restricted Stock, which terms and conditions shall not be inconsistent with the Plan or any applicable Program, and may impose such conditions on the issuance of such Restricted Stock as it deems appropriate.

In all cases, legal consideration shall be required for each issuance of Restricted Stock to the extent required by Applicable Law.

9.2 Rights as Stockholders.

All shares of Restricted Stock (including any shares received by Holders thereof with respect to shares of Restricted Stock as a result of stock dividends, stock splits, or any other form of recapitalization) shall be subject to such restrictions and vesting requirements as the Administrator shall provide in the applicable Program or Award Agreement. By action taken after the Restricted Stock is issued, the Administrator may, on such terms and conditions as it may determine to be appropriate, accelerate the vesting of such Restricted Stock by removing any or all of the restrictions imposed by the terms of the applicable Program or Award Agreement.

9.4 Repurchase or Forfeiture of Restricted Stock. Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, if no price was paid by the Holder for the Restricted Stock, upon a Termination of Service during the applicable restriction period, the Holder’s rights in unvested Restricted Stock then subject to restrictions shall lapse, and such Restricted Stock shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled without consideration on the date of such Termination of Service. If a price was paid by the Holder for the Restricted Stock, upon a Termination of Service during the applicable restriction period, the Company shall have the right to repurchase from the Holder the unvested Restricted Stock then subject to restrictions at a cash price per share equal to the price paid by the Holder for such Restricted Stock or such other amount as may be specified in the applicable Program or Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may provide that upon certain events, including, without limitation, a Change in Control; the Holder’s death, retirement, or disability; or any other specified Termination of Service or any other event, the Holder’s rights in unvested Restricted Stock then subject to restrictions shall not lapse, such Restricted Stock shall vest and cease to be forfeitable and, if applicable, the Company shall cease to have a right of repurchase.

9.5 Section 83(b) Election. If a Holder makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed with respect to the Restricted Stock as of the date of transfer of the Restricted Stock rather than as of the date or dates upon which the Holder would otherwise be taxable under Section 83(a) of the Code, the Holder shall be required to deliver a copy of such election to the Company promptly after filing such election with the Internal Revenue Service along with proof of the timely filing thereof with the Internal Revenue Service.

AWARD OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

10.1 Grant of Restricted Stock Units. The Administrator is authorized to grant Awards of Restricted Stock Units to any Eligible Individual selected by the Administrator in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as determined by the Administrator.

10.2 Vesting of Restricted Stock Units. At the time of grant, the Administrator shall specify the date or dates on which the Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable, and may specify such conditions

12

to vesting as it deems appropriate, including, without limitation, vesting based upon the Holder’s duration of service to the Company or any Subsidiary, one or more Performance Criteria, Company performance, individual performance, or other specific criteria, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods, as determined by the Administrator.

10.3 Settlement and Payment. At the time of grant, the Administrator shall specify the settlement date applicable to each grant of Restricted Stock Units, which shall be no earlier than the vesting date or dates of the Award and may be determined at the election of the Holder (if permitted by the applicable Award Agreement); provided that, except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, and subject to compliance with Section 409A, in no event shall the settlement date relating to each Restricted Stock Unit occur following the later of (a) the 15th day of the third month following the end of calendar year in which the applicable portion of the Restricted Stock Unit vests or (b) the 15^th day of the third month following the end of the Company’s fiscal year in which the applicable portion of the Restricted Stock Unit vests. On the settlement date, the Company shall, in accordance with the applicable Award Agreement and subject to Section 12.4(f), transfer to the Holder one unrestricted, fully transferable Share for each Restricted Stock Unit scheduled to be paid out on such date and not previously forfeited, or in the sole discretion of the Administrator, an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the settlement date, or a combination of cash and Common Stock as determined by the Administrator.

10.4 Settlement upon Termination of Service. An Award of Restricted Stock Units shall only vest and be settled while the Holder is an Employee, a Consultant, or a Director, as applicable; provided, however, that the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may provide (in an Award Agreement or otherwise) that a Restricted Stock Unit award may vest and be settled subsequent to a Termination of Service in certain events, including a Change in Control; the Holder’s death, retirement, or disability; or any other specified Termination of Service.

ARTICLE 11.

 

AWARD OF OTHER STOCK- OR CASH-BASED AWARDS AND DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS

11.1 Other Stock- or Cash-Based Awards. The Administrator is authorized to grant Other Stock- or Cash-Based Awards, including awards entitling a Holder to receive Shares or cash to be delivered immediately or in the future, to any Eligible Individual. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and any applicable Program, the Administrator shall determine the terms and conditions of each Other Stock- or Cash-Based Award, including the term of the Award, any exercise or purchase price, Performance Goals (including the Performance Criteria), transfer restrictions, vesting conditions, and other terms and conditions applicable thereto, which shall be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. Other Stock- or Cash-Based Awards may be paid in cash, Shares, or a combination of cash and Shares, as determined by the Administrator, and may be available as a form of payment in the settlement of other Awards granted under the Plan, as stand-alone payments; as a part of a bonus, deferred bonus, deferred compensation, or other arrangement; and/or as payment in lieu of compensation to which an Eligible Individual is otherwise entitled.

11.2 Dividend Equivalents. Dividend Equivalents may be granted by the Administrator, either alone or in tandem with another Award, based on dividends declared on the Common Stock, to be credited as of dividend payment dates during the period between the date the Dividend Equivalents are granted to a Holder and the date such Dividend Equivalents terminate or expire, as determined by the Administrator. Such Dividend Equivalents shall be converted to cash or additional Shares by such formula and at such time and subject to such restrictions and limitations as may be determined by the Administrator. Dividend Equivalents with respect to an Award shall only be paid out to the Holder to the extent that the vesting conditions are subsequently satisfied and the Award vests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Dividend Equivalents shall be payable with respect to Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, or other purchase rights.

ARTICLE 12.

 

ADDITIONAL TERMS OF AWARDS

12.1 Payment. The Administrator shall determine the method or methods by which payments by any Holder with respect to any Awards granted under the Plan shall be made, including, without limitation: (a) cash or check, (b) Shares (including, in the case of payment of the exercise price of an Award, Shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of the Award) or Shares held for such minimum period of time as may be established by the Administrator,

13

in each case, having a Fair Market Value on the date of delivery equal to the aggregate payments required, (c) delivery of a written or electronic notice that the Holder has placed a market sell order with a broker acceptable to the Company with respect to Shares then issuable upon exercise or vesting of an Award, and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale to the Company in satisfaction of the aggregate payments required; provided that payment of such proceeds is then made to the Company upon settlement of such sale, (d) other form of legal consideration acceptable to the Administrator in its sole discretion, or (e) any combination of the above permitted forms of payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Holder who is a Director or an “executive officer” of the Company within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act shall be permitted to make payment with respect to any Awards granted under the Plan, or continue any extension of credit with respect to such payment, with a loan from the Company or a loan arranged by the Company in violation of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act.

12.2 Tax Withholding. The Company or any Subsidiary shall have the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Holder to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, local, and foreign taxes (including the Holder’s FICA, employment tax, or other social security contribution obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect to any taxable event concerning a Holder arising as a result of the Plan or any Award. The Administrator may, in its sole discretion and in satisfaction of the foregoing requirement, allow a Holder to satisfy such obligations by any payment means described in Section 12.1 hereof, including without limitation, by allowing such Holder to have the Company or any Subsidiary withhold Shares otherwise issuable under an Award (or allow the surrender of Shares). The number of Shares which may be so withheld or surrendered shall be limited to the number of Shares which have a fair market value on the date of withholding or repurchase no greater than the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the maximum statutory withholding rates for federal, state, local, and foreign income tax and payroll tax purposes that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income (or such other number as would not result in adverse financial accounting consequences for the Company or any of its Subsidiaries). The Administrator shall determine the fair market value of the Shares, consistent with applicable provisions of the Code, for tax withholding obligations due in connection with a broker-assisted cashless Option or Stock Appreciation Right exercise involving the sale of Shares to pay the Option or Stock Appreciation Right exercise price or any tax withholding obligation.

12.3 Transferability of Awards.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Sections 12.3(b) and 12.3(c):

(i) No Award under the Plan may be sold, pledged, assigned, or transferred in any manner other than (A) by will or the laws of descent and distribution or (B) subject to the consent of the Administrator, pursuant to a DRO, unless and until such Award has been exercised or the Shares underlying such Award have been issued, and all restrictions applicable to such Shares have lapsed;

(ii) No Award or interest or right therein shall be liable for or otherwise subject to the debts, contracts, or engagements of the Holder or the Holder’s successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, hypothecation, encumbrance, assignment, or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment, or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy) unless and until such Award has been exercised, or the Shares underlying such Award have been issued, and all restrictions applicable to such Shares have lapsed, and any attempted disposition of an Award prior to satisfaction of these conditions shall be null and void and of no effect, except to the extent that such disposition is permitted by Section 12.3(a)(i); and

(iii) During the lifetime of the Holder, only the Holder may exercise any exercisable portion of an Award granted to such Holder under the Plan, unless it has been disposed of pursuant to a DRO. After the death of the Holder, any exercisable portion of an Award may, prior to the time when such portion becomes unexercisable under the Plan or the applicable Program or Award Agreement, be exercised by the Holder’s personal representative or by any person empowered to do so under the deceased Holder’s will or under the then-applicable laws of descent and distribution.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 12.3(a), the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may determine to permit a Holder or a Permitted Transferee of such Holder to transfer an Award other than an Incentive Stock Option (unless such Incentive Stock Option is intended to become a Non-Qualified Stock Option) to any one or more Permitted Transferees of such Holder, subject to the following terms and conditions: (i) an Award transferred to

14

a Permitted Transferee shall not be assignable or transferable by the Permitted Transferee other than (A) to another Permitted Transferee of the applicable Holder or (B) by will or the laws of descent and distribution or, subject to the consent of the Administrator, pursuant to a DRO; (ii) an Award transferred to a Permitted Transferee shall continue to be subject to all the terms and conditions of the Award as applicable to the original Holder (other than the ability to further transfer the Award to any person other than another Permitted Transferee of the applicable Holder); and (iii) the Holder (or transferring Permitted Transferee) and the receiving Permitted Transferee shall execute any and all documents requested by the Administrator, including, without limitation documents to (A) confirm the status of the transferee as a Permitted Transferee, (B) satisfy any requirements for an exemption for the transfer under Applicable Law, and (C) evidence the transfer. In addition, and further notwithstanding Section 12.3(a), hereof, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may determine to permit a Holder to transfer Incentive Stock Options to a trust that constitutes a Permitted Transferee if, under Section 671 of the Code and other Applicable Law, the Holder is considered the sole beneficial owner of the Incentive Stock Option while it is held in the trust.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 12.3(a), a Holder may, in the manner determined by the Administrator, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights of the Holder and to receive any distribution with respect to any Award upon the Holder’s death. A beneficiary, legal guardian, legal representative, or other person claiming any rights pursuant to the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Program or Award Agreement applicable to the Holder and any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Administrator. If the Holder is married or a domestic partner in a domestic partnership qualified under Applicable Law and resides in a community property state, a designation of a person other than the Holder’s spouse or domestic partner, as applicable, as the Holder’s beneficiary with respect to more than fifty percent (50%) of the Holder’s interest in the Award shall not be effective without the prior written or electronic consent of the Holder’s spouse or domestic partner. If no beneficiary has been designated or survives the Holder, payment shall be made to the person entitled thereto pursuant to the Holder’s will or the laws of descent and distribution. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by a Holder at any time; provided that the change or revocation is delivered in writing to the Administrator prior to the Holder’s death.

12.4 Conditions to Issuance of Shares.

(a) The Administrator shall determine the methods by which Shares shall be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Holders. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates or make any book entries evidencing Shares pursuant to the exercise of any Award, unless and until the Administrator has determined, with advice of counsel, that the issuance of such Shares is in compliance with Applicable Law and the Shares are covered by an effective registration statement or applicable exemption from registration. In addition to the terms and conditions provided herein, the Administrator may require that a Holder make such reasonable covenants, agreements, and representations as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, deems advisable in order to comply with Applicable Law.

(b) All share certificates delivered pursuant to the Plan and all Shares issued pursuant to book entry procedures are subject to any stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Administrator deems necessary or advisable to comply with Applicable Law. The Administrator may place legends on any share certificate or book entry to reference restrictions applicable to the Shares (including, without limitation, restrictions applicable to Restricted Stock).

(c) The Administrator shall have the right to require any Holder to comply with any timing or other restrictions with respect to the settlement, distribution, or exercise of any Award, including a window-period limitation, as may be imposed in the sole discretion of the Administrator.

(d) No fractional Shares shall be issued and the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether cash shall be given in lieu of fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares shall be eliminated by rounding down.

(e) The Company, in its sole discretion, may (i) retain physical possession of any stock certificate evidencing Shares until any restrictions thereon or Performance Criteria applicable thereto shall have lapsed or been achieved and/or (ii) require that the stock certificates evidencing such Shares be held in custody by a designated escrow agent (which may but need not be the Company) until the restrictions thereon shall have lapsed, and that the Holder deliver a stock power, endorsed in blank, relating to such Shares.

15

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator or required by Applicable Law, the Company shall not deliver to any Holder certificates evidencing Shares issued in connection with any Award and instead such Shares shall be recorded in the books of the Company (or, as applicable, its transfer agent or stock plan administrator).

12.5 Forfeiture and Claw-Back Provisions. All Awards (including any proceeds, gains, or other economic benefit actually or constructively received by a Holder upon any receipt or exercise of any Award or upon the receipt or resale of any Shares underlying the Award and any payments of a portion of an incentive-based bonus pool allocated to a Holder) shall be subject to the provisions of any claw-back policy implemented by the Company, including, without limitation, any claw-back policy adopted to comply with the requirements of Applicable Law, including, without limitation, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, whether or not such claw-back policy was in place at the time of grant of an Award, to the extent set forth in such claw-back policy and/or in the applicable Award Agreement.

12.6 Repricing Permitted. The Administrator will, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, have the authority to (a) amend any outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right or other purchase right to reduce its exercise price per Share, (b) cancel any Option or Stock Appreciation Right or other purchase right in exchange for cash or another Award, or (c) permit any repricing of such awards to be accomplished through repurchase or otherwise, in each case in addition to the adjustments or substitutions in accordance with Section 14.2.

12.7 Amendment of Awards. Subject to Applicable Law, the Administrator may amend, modify, or terminate any outstanding Award, including but not limited to, substituting therefor another Award of the same or a different type, changing the date of exercise or settlement, and converting an Incentive Stock Option to a Non-Qualified Stock Option. The Holder’s consent to such action shall be required unless (a) the Administrator determines that the action, taking into account any related action, would not materially and adversely affect the Holder or (b) the change is otherwise permitted under the Plan (including, without limitation, under Section 14.2 or 14.9).

12.8 Data Privacy. As a condition of receipt of any Award, each Holder explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use, and transfer, in electronic or other form, of personal data as described in this Section 12.8 by and among, as applicable, the Company and its Subsidiaries for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering, and managing the Holder’s participation in the Plan. The Company and its Subsidiaries may hold certain personal information about a Holder, including but not limited to, the Holder’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title(s), any shares of stock held in the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, details of all Awards, in each case, for the purpose of implementing, managing, and administering the Plan and Awards (the “Data”). The Company and its Subsidiaries may transfer the Data amongst themselves as necessary for the purpose of implementation, administration, and management of a Holder’s participation in the Plan, and the Company and its Subsidiaries may each further transfer the Data to any third parties assisting the Company and its Subsidiaries in the implementation, administration, and management of the Plan. These recipients may be located in the Holder’s country, or elsewhere, and the Holder’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the recipients’ country. Through acceptance of an Award, each Holder authorizes such recipients to receive, possess, use, retain, and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering, and managing the Holder’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to a broker or other third party with whom the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Holder may elect to deposit any Shares. The Data related to a Holder will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer, and manage the Holder’s participation in the Plan. A Holder may, at any time, view the Data held by the Company with respect to such Holder, request additional information about the storage and processing of the Data with respect to such Holder, recommend any necessary corrections to the Data with respect to the Holder or refuse or withdraw the consents herein in writing, in any case without cost, by contacting their local human resources representative. The Company may cancel the Holder’s ability to participate in the Plan and, in the Administrator’s discretion, the Holder may forfeit any outstanding Awards if the Holder refuses or withdraws their consents as described herein. For more information on the consequences of refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, Holders may contact their local human resources representative.

13.1 Administrator. The Committee shall administer the Plan (except as otherwise permitted herein). To the extent necessary to comply with Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act, the Committee shall take all action with respect to such Awards, and the individuals taking such action shall consist solely of two or more Non-Employee Directors, each of whom is intended to qualify as a “non-employee director” as defined by Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act or any successor rule. Additionally, to the extent required by Applicable Law, each of the individuals constituting the Committee shall be an “independent director” under the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted, or traded. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action taken by the Committee shall be valid and effective, whether or not members of the Committee at the time of such action are later determined not to have satisfied the requirements for membership set forth in this Section 13.1 or the Organizational Documents.

In its sole discretion, the Board may at any time and from time to time exercise any and all rights and duties of the Committee in its capacity as the Administrator under the Plan except with respect to matters which under Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act or any successor rule, or the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted, or traded are required to be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee.

13.3 Action by the Administrator. Unless otherwise established by the Board, set forth in any Organizational Documents, or as required by Applicable Law, a majority of the Administrator shall constitute a quorum and the acts of a majority of the members present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, and acts approved in writing by all members of the Administrator in lieu of a meeting, shall be deemed the acts of the Administrator. Each member of the Administrator is entitled to, in good faith, rely or act upon any report or other information furnished to that member by any officer or other employee of the Company or any Subsidiary, the Company’s independent certified public accountants, or any executive compensation consultant or other professional retained by the Company to assist in the administration of the Plan.

(a) Designate Eligible Individuals to receive Awards;

17

limitations on the Award, any schedule for vesting, lapse of forfeiture restrictions or restrictions on the exercisability of an Award, and accelerations or waivers thereof, and any provisions related to non-competition and claw-back and recapture of gain on an Award, based in each case on such considerations as the Administrator in its sole discretion determines;

(e) Determine whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances an Award may be settled in, or the exercise price of an Award may be paid in, cash, Shares, other Awards, or other property, or an Award may be canceled, forfeited, or surrendered;

(f) Prescribe the form of each Award Agreement, which need not be identical for each Holder;

13.5 Decisions Binding. The Administrator’s interpretation of the Plan, any Awards granted pursuant to the Plan, any Program or any Award Agreement, and all decisions and determinations by the Administrator with respect to the Plan are final, binding, and conclusive on all persons.

13.6 Delegation of Authority. The Board or Committee may from time to time delegate to a committee of one or more members of the Board or one or more officers of the Company the authority to grant or amend Awards or to take other administrative actions pursuant to this Article 13; provided, however, that in no event shall an officer of the Company be delegated the authority to grant Awards to, or amend Awards held by, the following individuals: (a) individuals who are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act or (b) officers of the Company (or Directors) to whom authority to grant or amend Awards has been delegated hereunder; provided, further, that any delegation of administrative authority shall only be permitted to the extent it is permissible under any Organizational Documents and Applicable Law. Any delegation hereunder shall be subject to the restrictions and limits that the Board or Committee specifies at the time of such delegation or that are otherwise included in the applicable Organizational Documents, and the Board or Committee, as applicable, may at any time rescind the authority so delegated or appoint a new delegatee. At all times, the delegatee appointed under this Section 13.6 shall serve in such capacity at the pleasure of the Board or the Committee, as applicable, and the Board or the Committee may abolish any committee at any time and re-vest in itself any previously delegated authority.

ARTICLE 14.

 

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

14.1 Amendment, Suspension, or Termination of the Plan.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 14.1(b), the Plan may be wholly or partially amended or otherwise modified, suspended, or terminated at any time or from time to time by the Board; provided that, except as provided in Section 12.7 and 14.9, no amendment, suspension, or termination of the Plan shall, without the consent of the Holder, materially and adversely affect any rights or obligations under any Award theretofore granted or awarded, unless the Award itself otherwise expressly so provides.

(c) No Awards may be granted or awarded during any period of suspension or after termination of the Plan, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event may any Incentive Stock Option be

18

granted under the Plan after the tenth (10th) anniversary of the earlier of (i) the date on which the Plan was adopted by the Board or (ii) the date the Plan was approved by the Company’s stockholders. No Awards may be granted under the Plan after the ten-year anniversary of the Effective Date.

14.2 Changes in Common Stock or Assets of the Company, Acquisition, or Liquidation of the Company and Other Corporate Events.

(a) In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation, or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to stockholders, or any other change affecting the shares of the Company’s stock or the share price of the Company’s stock other than an Equity Restructuring, the Administrator may make equitable adjustments, if any, to reflect such change with respect to: (i) the aggregate number and kind of Shares that may be issued under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the Share Limit, the number of shares that may be issued as Incentive Stock Options, any per individual share limit, and kind of Shares (or other securities or property) which may be issued under the Plan, and adjustments of the Director Limit); (ii) the number and kind of Shares (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards; (iii) the terms and conditions of any outstanding Awards (including, without limitation, any applicable performance targets or criteria with respect thereto); (iv) the grant or exercise price per share for any outstanding Awards under the Plan; and (v) the number and kind of Shares (or other securities or property) for which automatic grants are subsequently to be made to new and continuing Non-Employee Directors pursuant to Section 4.6.

(b) In the event of any transaction or event described in Section 14.2(a) or any unusual or nonrecurring transactions or events affecting the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company, or the financial statements of the Company or any Subsidiary, or of changes in Applicable Law or Applicable Accounting Standards, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, either by the terms of the Award or by action taken prior to the occurrence of such transaction or event, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the following actions whenever the Administrator determines that such action is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any Award under the Plan, to facilitate such transactions or events or to give effect to such changes in Applicable Law or Applicable Accounting Standards:

(i) To provide for the termination of any such Award in exchange for an amount of cash and/or other property with a value equal to the amount that would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Holder’s rights (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction or event described in this Section 14.2 the Administrator determines in good faith that no amount would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Holder’s rights, then such Award may be terminated by the Company without payment);

(ii) To provide that such Award be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by similar options, rights, or awards covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and applicable exercise or purchase price, in all cases, as determined by the Administrator;

(iii) To make adjustments in the number and type of Shares of the Company’s stock (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards and/or in the terms and conditions of (including the grant or exercise price), and the criteria included in, outstanding Awards and Awards which may be granted in the future;

(iv) To provide that such Award shall be exercisable or payable or fully vested with respect to all Shares covered thereby, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or the applicable Program or Award Agreement;

(v) To replace such Award with other rights or property selected by the Administrator; and/or

(vi) To provide that the Award cannot vest, be exercised, or become payable after such event.

19

(c) In connection with the occurrence of any Equity Restructuring, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 14.2(a) and 14.2(b):

(i) The number and type of securities subject to each outstanding Award and the exercise price or grant price thereof, if applicable, shall be equitably adjusted (and the adjustments provided under this Section 14.2(c)(i) shall be nondiscretionary and shall be final and binding on the affected Holder and the Company); and/or

(ii) The Administrator shall make such equitable adjustments, if any, as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may deem appropriate to reflect such Equity Restructuring with respect to the aggregate number and kind of Shares that may be issued under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the Share Limit, the number of shares that may be issued as Incentive Stock Options, any per individual share limit, and kind of Shares (or securities or other property) which may be issued under the Plan).

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, in the event of a Change in Control, unless otherwise provided by the Administrator in an Award Agreement, each Award shall be treated as determined by the Administrator, including, but not limited to, the Administrator electing to (i) terminate an Award in exchange for cash, rights, or property, (ii) cause an Award to become fully exercisable and no longer subject to any forfeiture restrictions prior to the consummation of a Change in Control, pursuant to Section 14.2, or (iii) provide that such Award (other than any portion subject to performance-based vesting) shall continue in effect or be assumed or an equivalent Award substituted by the successor entity or a parent or subsidiary of the successor entity, with the portion of any such Award subject to performance-based vesting treated in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Award Agreement and, in the absence of applicable terms and conditions, the Administrator’s discretion, provided, that in the event a Holder experiences a Termination of Service by the Company for other than Cause or by the Holder for Good Reason, in either case within two years following such Change in Control, then the vesting and, if applicable, exercisability of one hundred percent (100%) of the then-unvested Shares (or other securities or property) subject to the outstanding Awards held by such Holder shall accelerate upon the date of such Termination of Service. The treatment of each Award determined by the Administrator does not need to be the same for all Awards or Participants.

(e) In the event that the successor entity in a Change in Control refuses to assume or substitute for an Award (other than any portion subject to performance-based vesting), the Administrator shall cause such Award to become fully vested and, if applicable, exercisable immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction and all forfeiture restrictions on such Award to lapse and, to the extent unexercised upon the consummation of such transaction, to terminate in exchange for cash, rights, or other property pursuant to Section 14.2(d). The Administrator shall notify the Holder of any Award that becomes exercisable pursuant to the preceding sentence that such Award shall be fully exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice, contingent upon the occurrence of the Change in Control, and such Award shall terminate upon the consummation of the Change in Control in accordance with the preceding sentence.

(f) For the purposes of this Section 14.2, an Award shall be considered assumed if, following the Change in Control, the Award confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share subject to the Award immediately prior to the Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the Change in Control by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the Change in Control was not solely common equity of the successor entity or its parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor entity, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Award, for each Share subject to an Award, to be solely common equity of the successor entity or its parent equal in fair market value to the per-share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the Change in Control.

(g) The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may include such further provisions and limitations in any Award, agreement, or certificate, as it may deem equitable and in the best interests of the Company that are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan.

(h) Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, no adjustment or action described in this Section 14.2 or in any other provision of the Plan shall be authorized to the extent it would (i) cause the Plan

20

to violate Section 422(b)(1) of the Code, (ii) result in short-swing profits liability under Section 16 of the Exchange Act or violate the exemptive conditions of Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act, or (iii) cause an Award to fail to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A.

(i) The existence of the Plan, any Program, any Award Agreement, and/or the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Company or the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization, or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business; any merger or consolidation of the Company; any issue of stock or of options, warrants, or rights to purchase stock or of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stocks whose rights are superior to or affect the Common Stock or the rights thereof or which are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock; the dissolution or liquidation of the Company; any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business; or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.

(j) In the event of any pending stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation, or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to stockholders, or any other change affecting the Shares or the share price of the Common Stock including any Equity Restructuring, for reasons of administrative convenience, the Company, in its sole discretion, may refuse to permit the exercise of any Award during a period of up to thirty (30) days prior to the consummation of any such transaction.¹

14.3 No Stockholders’ Rights. Except as otherwise provided herein or in an applicable Program or Award Agreement, a Holder shall have none of the rights of a stockholder with respect to Shares covered by any Award until the Holder becomes the record owner of such Shares.

14.4 Paperless Administration. In the event that the Company establishes, for itself or using the services of a third party, an automated system for the documentation, granting, or exercise of Awards, such as a system using an internet website or interactive voice response, then the paperless documentation, granting, or exercise of Awards by a Holder may be permitted through the use of such an automated system.

14.5 Effect of Plan upon Other Compensation Plans. The adoption of the Plan shall not affect any other compensation or incentive plans in effect for the Company or any Subsidiary. Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to limit the right of the Company or any Subsidiary: (a) to establish any other forms of incentives or compensation for Employees, Directors, or Consultants of the Company or any Subsidiary or (b) to grant or assume options or other rights or awards otherwise than under the Plan in connection with any proper corporate purpose including, without limitation, the grant or assumption of options in connection with the acquisition by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation, or otherwise of the business, stock, or assets of any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, firm, or association.

14.6 Compliance with Laws. The Plan, the granting and vesting of Awards under the Plan, and the issuance and delivery of Shares and the payment of money under the Plan or under Awards granted or awarded hereunder are subject to compliance with all Applicable Law (including, but not limited to, state, federal, and foreign securities law and margin requirements), and to such approvals by any listing, regulatory, or governmental authority as may, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith. Any securities delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such restrictions, and the person acquiring such securities shall, if requested by the Company, provide such assurances and representations to the Company as the Company may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance with all Applicable Law. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may take whatever actions it deems necessary or appropriate to effect compliance with Applicable Law, including, without limitation, placing legends on share certificates and issuing stop-transfer notices to agents and registrars. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Administrator may not take any actions hereunder, and no Awards shall be granted, that would violate Applicable Law. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Plan and Awards granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to Applicable Law.

14.7 Titles and Headings; References to Sections of the Code or Exchange Act. The titles and headings of the Sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only and, in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control. References to sections of the Code or the Exchange Act shall include any amendment or successor thereto.

Note to Company: This was removed since the shareholder approval will be sought prior to closing.

14.8 Governing Law. The Plan and any Programs and Award Agreements hereunder shall be administered, interpreted, and enforced under the internal laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflicts of laws thereof or of any other jurisdiction.

14.9 Section 409A. To the extent that the Administrator determines that any Award granted under the Plan is subject to Section 409A, the Plan, the Program pursuant to which such Award is granted, and the Award Agreement evidencing such Award shall incorporate the terms and conditions required by Section 409A. In that regard, to the extent any Award under the Plan or any other compensatory plan or arrangement of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is subject to Section 409A, and such Award or other amount is payable on account of a Holder’s Termination of Service (or any similarly defined term), then (a) such Award or amount shall only be paid to the extent such Termination of Service qualifies as a “separation from service” as defined in Section 409A and (b) if such Award or amount is payable to a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A, then to the extent required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A, such Award or other compensatory payment shall not be payable prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of the Holder’s Termination of Service or (ii) the date of the Holder’s death. To the extent applicable, the Plan, the Program, and any Award Agreements shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event that following the Effective Date the Administrator determines that any Award may be subject to Section 409A, the Administrator may (but is not obligated to), without a Holder’s consent, adopt such amendments to the Plan and the applicable Program and Award Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies, and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Administrator determines are necessary or appropriate to (A) exempt the Award from Section 409A and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided with respect to the Award or (B) comply with the requirements of Section 409A and thereby avoid the application of any penalty taxes under Section 409A. The Company makes no representations or warranties as to the tax treatment of any Award under Section 409A or otherwise. The Company shall have no obligation under this Section 14.9 or otherwise to take any action (whether or not described herein) to avoid the imposition of taxes, penalties, or interest under Section 409A with respect to any Award and shall have no liability to any Holder or any other person if any Award, compensation, or other benefits under the Plan are determined to constitute non-compliant, “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to the imposition of taxes, penalties, and/or interest under Section 409A.

14.10 Unfunded Status of Awards. The Plan is intended to be an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Holder pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Program or Award Agreement shall give the Holder any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company or any Subsidiary.

14.11 Indemnification. To the extent permitted under Applicable Law and the Organizational Documents, each member of the Administrator shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such member in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which they may be a party or in which they may be involved by reason of any action or failure to act pursuant to the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by them in satisfaction of judgment in such action, suit, or proceeding against them; provided they give the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before they undertake to handle and defend it on their own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled pursuant to the Organizational Documents, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.

14.12 Relationship to other Benefits. No payment pursuant to the Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare, or other benefit plan of the Company or any Subsidiary except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder.

14.13 Expenses. The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company and its Subsidiaries.

PURPOSE

This 2024 Key Employee Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) was adopted by the Board of Directors of Aja HoldCo, Inc. (the “Company”) on July 26, 2024. The purpose of the Plan is to promote the success and enhance the value of the Company by linking the individual interests of key employees of the Company to those of Company stockholders and by providing such individuals with an incentive for outstanding performance to generate superior returns to Company stockholders. The Plan is further intended to provide flexibility to the Company in its ability to motivate, attract, and retain the services of key employees of the Company upon whose judgment, interest, and special effort the successful conduct of the Company’s operation is largely dependent.

The foregoing definition does not in any way limit the Company’s ability to terminate a Holder’s employment or consulting relationship at any time as provided in the Plan, and the term “Company” will be interpreted to include any subsidiary, parent, or affiliate, as appropriate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change in Control constitutes a payment event with respect to any Award (or any portion of an Award) that provides for the deferral of compensation that is subject to Section 409A, to the extent required to avoid the imposition of additional taxes under Section 409A, the transaction or event described in subsection (a), (b), (c), or (d) with respect to such Award (or portion thereof) shall only constitute a Change in Control for purposes of the payment timing of such Award if such transaction also constitutes a “change in control event,” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5).

(a) As to a Consultant, the time when the engagement of a Holder as a Consultant to the Company or a Subsidiary is terminated for any reason, with or without cause, including, without limitation, by resignation, discharge, death, or retirement, but excluding terminations where the Consultant simultaneously commences or remains in employment or service with the Company or any Subsidiary.

(b) As to a Non-Employee Director, the time when a Holder who is a Non-Employee Director ceases to be a Director for any reason, including, without limitation, a termination by resignation, failure to be elected, death, or retirement, but excluding terminations where the Holder simultaneously commences or remains in employment or service with the Company or any Subsidiary.

(c) As to an Employee, the time when the employee-employer relationship between a Holder and the Company or any Subsidiary is terminated for any reason, including, without limitation, a termination by resignation, discharge, death, disability, or retirement; but excluding terminations where the Holder simultaneously commences or remains in employment or service with the Company or any Subsidiary.

The Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine the effect of all matters and questions relating to any Termination of Service, including, without limitation, whether a Termination of Service has occurred, whether a Termination of Service resulted from a discharge for Cause, and all questions of whether particular leaves of absence constitute a Termination of Service; provided, however, that, with respect to Incentive Stock Options, unless the Administrator otherwise provides in the terms of any Program, Award Agreement, or otherwise, or as otherwise required by Applicable Law, a leave of absence, change in status from an employee to an independent contractor, or other change in the employee-employer relationship shall constitute a Termination of Service only if, and to the extent that, such leave of absence, change in status, or other change interrupts employment for the purposes of Section 422(a)(2) of the Code and the then-applicable regulations and revenue rulings under said Section. For purposes of the Plan, a Holder’s employee-employer relationship or consultancy relationship shall be deemed to be terminated in the event that the Subsidiary employing or contracting with such Holder ceases to remain a Subsidiary following any merger, sale of stock, or other corporate transaction or event (including, without limitation, a spin-off).

ARTICLE 3.

 

SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

3.1 Number of Shares.

(a) Subject to Sections 14.1, 14.2, and 3.1(b), the aggregate number of Shares which may be issued or transferred pursuant to Awards under the Plan shall be equal to 3,354,445 Shares (the “Share Limit”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to Sections 14.1, 14.2, and 3.1(b), the aggregate maximum number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options is 3,354,445 Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted under Applicable Law, Awards that provide for the delivery of Shares subsequent to the applicable grant date may be granted in excess of the Share Limit if such Awards provide for the forfeiture or cash settlement of such Awards to the extent that insufficient Shares remain under the Share Limit in this Section 3.1(a) at the time that Shares would otherwise be issued in respect of such Award.

(b) If any Shares subject to an Award are forfeited or expire or such Award is settled for cash (in whole or in part),the Shares subject to such Award shall, to the extent of such forfeiture, expiration, or cash settlement, again be available for future grants of Awards under the Plan. In addition, until the termination of the Plan, the following Shares shall be available for future grants of Awards under the Plan: (i) Shares tendered by a Holder or withheld by the Company in payment of the exercise price of an Option; (ii) Shares tendered by the Holder

6

or withheld by the Company to satisfy any tax withholding obligation with respect to an Award; and (iii) Shares subject to Stock Appreciation Rights that are not issued in connection with the stock settlement of the Stock Appreciation Rights on exercise thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Shares purchased on the open market with the cash proceeds from the exercise of Options shall not be available for future grants of Awards. Until the termination of the Plan, any Shares repurchased by the Company under Section 7.4 or 9.4 hereof at the same price paid by the Holder or a lower price so that such Shares are returned to the Company will again be available for Awards. The payment of Dividend Equivalents in cash in conjunction with any outstanding Awards shall not be counted against the Shares available for issuance under the Plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3.1(b), no Shares may again be optioned, granted, or awarded if such action would cause an Incentive Stock Option to fail to qualify as an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Code.

(c) Substitute Awards shall not reduce the Shares authorized for grant under the Plan, except as may be required by reason of Section 422 of the Code. Additionally, in the event that a company acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary or with which the Company or any Subsidiary combines has shares available under a pre-existing plan approved by its stockholders and not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or combination, the shares available for grant pursuant to the terms of such pre-existing plan (as adjusted, to the extent appropriate, using the exchange ratio or other adjustment or valuation ratio or formula used in such acquisition or combination to determine the consideration payable to the holders of common stock of the entities party to such acquisition or combination) may be used for Awards under the Plan and shall not reduce the Shares authorized for grant under the Plan; provided that Awards using such available Shares shall not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made under the terms of the pre-existing plan, absent the acquisition or combination, and shall only be made to individuals who were not employed by or providing services to the Company or its Subsidiaries immediately prior to such acquisition or combination.

ARTICLE 4.

 

GRANTING OF AWARDS

4.1 Participation. The Administrator may, from time to time, select from among all Eligible Individuals those to whom an Award shall be granted and shall determine the nature and amount of each Award, which shall not be inconsistent with the requirements of the Plan. No Eligible Individual or other person shall have any right to be granted an Award pursuant to the Plan and neither the Company nor the Administrator is obligated to treat Eligible Individuals, Holders, or any other persons uniformly. Participation by each Holder in the Plan shall be voluntary and nothing in the Plan or any Program shall be construed as mandating that any Eligible Individual or other person shall participate in the Plan.

4.2 Award Agreement. Each Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that sets forth the terms, conditions, and limitations for such Award as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion (consistent with the requirements of the Plan and any applicable Program). Award Agreements evidencing Incentive Stock Options shall contain such terms and conditions as may be necessary to meet the applicable provisions of Section 422 of the Code.

4.3 Limitations Applicable to Section 16 Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Plan, and any Award granted or awarded to any individual who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act and any amendments thereto) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Plan and Awards granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule.

4.4 At-Will Service. Nothing in the Plan or in any Program or Award Agreement hereunder shall confer upon any Holder any right to continue in the employ of, or as a Director or Consultant for, the Company or any Subsidiary, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Company and any Subsidiary, which rights are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge any Holder at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause, and with or without notice, or to terminate or change all other terms and conditions of employment or engagement, except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in a written agreement between the Holder and the Company or any Subsidiary.

7

4.5 Foreign Holders. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or applicable Program to the contrary, in order to comply with the laws in countries other than the United States in which the Company and its Subsidiaries operate or have Employees, Non-Employee Directors, or Consultants, or in order to comply with the requirements of any foreign securities exchange or other Applicable Law, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall have the power and authority to: (a) determine which Subsidiaries shall be covered by the Plan; (b) determine which Eligible Individuals outside the United States are eligible to participate in the Plan; (c) modify the terms and conditions of any Award granted to Eligible Individuals outside the United States to comply with Applicable Law (including, without limitation, applicable foreign laws or listing requirements of any foreign securities exchange); (d) establish subplans and modify exercise procedures and other terms and procedures, to the extent such actions may be necessary or advisable; provided, however, that no such subplans and/or modifications shall increase the Share Limit; and (e) take any action, before or after an Award is made, that it deems advisable to obtain approval or comply with any necessary local governmental regulatory exemptions or approvals or listing requirements of any foreign securities exchange.

ARTICLE 5.

 

GRANTING OF OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

5.1 Granting of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights to Eligible Individuals. The Administrator is authorized to grant Options and Stock Appreciation Rights to Eligible Individuals from time to time, in its sole discretion, on such terms and conditions as it may determine, which shall not be inconsistent with the Plan.

5.2 Qualification of Incentive Stock Options. The Administrator may grant Options intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options only to employees of the Company, any of the Company’s present or future “parent corporations” or “subsidiary corporations” as defined in Sections 424(e) or (f) of the Code, respectively, and any other entities the employees of which are eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options under the Code. No person who qualifies as a Greater Than 10% Stockholder may be granted an Incentive Stock Option unless such Incentive Stock Option conforms to the applicable provisions of Section 422 of the Code. To the extent that the aggregate fair market value of stock with respect to which “incentive stock options” (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, but without regard to Section 422(d) of the Code) are exercisable for the first time by a Holder during any calendar year under the Plan, and all other plans of the Company and any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation thereof (as defined in Section 424(e) and 424(f) of the Code, respectively), exceeds $100,000, the Options shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options to the extent required by Section 422 of the Code. The rule set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall be applied by taking Options and other “incentive stock options” into account in the order in which they were granted and the fair market value of stock shall be determined as of the time the respective options were granted. Any interpretations and rules under the Plan with respect to Incentive Stock Options shall be consistent with the provisions of Section 422 of the Code. Neither the Company nor the Administrator shall have any liability to a Holder, or any other person, (a) if an Option (or any part thereof) which is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option fails to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option or (b) for any action or omission by the Company or the Administrator that causes an Option not to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, including without limitation, the conversion of an Incentive Stock Option to a Non-Qualified Stock Option or the grant of an Option intended as an Incentive Stock Option that fails to satisfy the requirements under the Code applicable to an Incentive Stock Option.

5.3 Option and Stock Appreciation Right Exercise Price. The exercise price per Share subject to each Option and Stock Appreciation Right shall be set by the Administrator, but shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable, is granted (or, as to Incentive Stock Options, on the date the Option is modified, extended, or renewed for purposes of Section 424(h) of the Code). In addition, in the case of Incentive Stock Options granted to a Greater Than 10% Stockholder, such price shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Option is granted (or the date the Option is modified, extended, or renewed for purposes of Section 424(h) of the Code). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right that is a Substitute Award, the exercise price per share of the Shares subject to such Option or Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable, may be less than the Fair Market Value per share on the date of grant; provided that the exercise price of any Substitute Award shall be determined in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 424 and 409A of the Code.

5.4 Option and SAR Terms. The term of each Option (the “Option Term”) and the term of each Stock Appreciation Right (the “SAR Term”) shall be set by the Administrator in its sole discretion; provided, however, that the Option Term or SAR Term, as applicable, shall not be more than (a) ten (10) years from the date the Option or

8

Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable, is granted to an Eligible Individual (other than a Greater Than 10% Stockholder), or (b) five (5) years from the date an Incentive Stock Option is granted to a Greater Than 10% Stockholder. Except as limited by the requirements of Section 409A or Section 422 of the Code and regulations and rulings thereunder or the first sentence of this Section 5.4 and without limiting the Company’s rights under Section 12.7, the Administrator may extend the Option Term of any outstanding Option or the SAR Term of any outstanding Stock Appreciation Right, and may extend the time period during which vested Options or Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised, in connection with any Termination of Service of the Holder or otherwise, and may amend, subject to Section 12.7 and 14.1, any other term or condition of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right relating to such Termination of Service of the Holder or otherwise.

5.5 Option and SAR Vesting. The period during which the right to exercise, in whole or in part, an Option or Stock Appreciation Right vests in the Holder shall be set by the Administrator and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator in the Award Agreement, the applicable Program, or by action of the Administrator following the grant of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, (a) no portion of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right which is unexercisable at a Holder’s Termination of Service shall thereafter become exercisable and (b) the portion of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right that is unexercisable at a Holder’s Termination of Service shall automatically expire on the date of such Termination of Service.

5.6 Substitution of Stock Appreciation Rights. The Administrator may provide in the applicable Program or Award Agreement evidencing the grant of an Option that the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to substitute a Stock Appreciation Right for such Option at any time prior to or upon exercise of such Option; provided that such Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable with respect to the same number of Shares for which such substituted Option would have been exercisable, and shall also have the same exercise price, vesting schedule, and remaining term as the substituted Option.

ARTICLE 6.

 

EXERCISE OF OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

6.1 Exercise and Payment. An exercisable Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised in whole or in part. However, an Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall not be exercisable with respect to fractional Shares and the Administrator may require that, by the terms of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, a partial exercise must be with respect to a minimum number of Shares. Payment of the amounts payable with respect to Stock Appreciation Rights pursuant to this Article 6 shall be in cash, Shares (based on its Fair Market Value as of the date the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised), or a combination of both, as determined by the Administrator.

6.2 Manner of Exercise. Except as set forth in Section 6.3, all or a portion of an exercisable Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be deemed exercised upon delivery of all of the following to the Secretary of the Company, the stock plan administrator of the Company, or such other person or entity designated by the Administrator, or their or its office, as applicable:

(a) A written or electronic notice complying with the applicable rules established by the Administrator stating that the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, or a portion thereof, is exercised. The notice shall be signed or otherwise acknowledged electronically by the Holder or other person then entitled to exercise the Option or Stock Appreciation Right or such portion thereof;

(b) Such representations and documents as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable to effect compliance with Applicable Law.

(c) In the event that the Option shall be exercised pursuant to Section 12.3 by any person or persons other than the Holder, appropriate proof of the right of such person or persons to exercise the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator; and

(d) Full payment of the exercise price and applicable withholding taxes for the Shares with respect to which the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, or portion thereof, is exercised, in a manner permitted by the Administrator in accordance with Sections 12.1 and 12.2.

6.3 Notification Regarding Disposition. The Holder shall give the Company prompt written or electronic notice of any disposition of Shares acquired by exercise of an Incentive Stock Option which occurs within (a) two years from the date of grant (including the date the Option is modified, extended, or renewed for purposes of Section 424(h) of the Code) of such Option to such Holder or (b) one year after the date of transfer of such Shares

9

to such Holder. Such notice shall specify the date of such disposition or other transfer and the amount realized, in cash, other property, assumption of indebtedness, or other consideration, by the Holder in such disposition or other transfer.

ARTICLE 7.

 

AWARD OF PERFORMANCE STOCK

7.1 Award of Performance Stock. The Administrator is authorized to grant Performance Stock to Eligible Individuals, and shall determine the terms and conditions, including the performance conditions and restrictions applicable to each award of Performance Stock, which terms and conditions shall not be inconsistent with the Plan or any applicable Program, and may impose such conditions on the issuance of such Performance Stock as it deems appropriate. The Administrator shall establish the purchase price, if any, and form of payment for Performance Stock; provided, however, that if a purchase price is charged, such purchase price shall be no less than the par value, if any, of the Shares to be purchased, unless otherwise permitted by Applicable Law. In all cases, legal consideration shall be required for each issuance of Performance Stock to the extent required by Applicable Law.

7.2 Rights as Stockholders. Subject to Section 7.4, upon issuance of Performance Stock, the Holder shall have, unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, all the rights of a stockholder with respect to said Shares, subject to the restrictions in the Plan, any applicable Program, and/or the applicable Award Agreement, including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions paid or made with respect to the Shares to the extent such dividends and other distributions have a record date that is on or after the date on which the Holder to whom such Performance Stock are granted becomes the record holder of such Performance Stock; provided, however, that, in the sole discretion of the Administrator, any extraordinary distributions with respect to the Shares may be subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 7.3. In addition, dividends which are paid prior to vesting shall only be paid out to the Holder to the extent that the performance-based vesting conditions are subsequently satisfied and the share of Performance Stock vests.

7.3 Restrictions. All shares of Performance Stock (including any shares received by Holders thereof with respect to shares of Performance Stock as a result of stock dividends, stock splits, or any other form of recapitalization) shall be subject to such restrictions and vesting requirements as the Administrator shall provide in the applicable Program or Award Agreement. By action taken after the Performance Stock is issued, the Administrator may, on such terms and conditions as it may determine to be appropriate, accelerate the vesting of such Performance Stock by removing any or all of the restrictions imposed by the terms of the applicable Program or Award Agreement.

7.4 Repurchase or Forfeiture of Performance Stock. Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, if no price was paid by the Holder for the Performance Stock, upon a Termination of Service during the applicable restriction period, the Holder’s rights in unvested Performance Stock then subject to restrictions shall lapse, and such Performance Stock shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled without consideration on the date of such Termination of Service. If a price was paid by the Holder for the Performance Stock, upon a Termination of Service during the applicable restriction period, the Company shall have the right to repurchase from the Holder the unvested Performance Stock then subject to restrictions at a cash price per share equal to the price paid by the Holder for such Performance Stock or such other amount as may be specified in the applicable Program or Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may provide that upon certain events, including, without limitation, a Change in Control; the Holder’s death, retirement, or disability; or any other specified Termination of Service or any other event, the Holder’s rights in unvested Performance Stock then subject to restrictions shall not lapse, such Performance Stock shall vest and cease to be forfeitable and, if applicable, the Company shall cease to have a right of repurchase.

7.5 Section 83(b) Election. If a Holder makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed with respect to the Performance Stock as of the date of transfer of the Performance Stock rather than as of the date or dates upon which the Holder would otherwise be taxable under Section 83(a) of the Code, the Holder shall be required to deliver a copy of such election to the Company promptly after filing such election with the Internal Revenue Service along with proof of the timely filing thereof with the Internal Revenue Service.

On the settlement date, the Company shall, in accordance with the applicable Award Agreement and subject to Section 12.4(f), transfer to the Holder one unrestricted, fully transferable Share for each Performance Stock Unit scheduled to be paid out on such date and not previously forfeited, or in the sole discretion of the Administrator, an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the settlement date or a combination of cash and Common Stock as determined by the Administrator.

8.4 Settlement upon Termination of Service. An Award of Performance Stock Units shall only vest and be settled while the Holder is an Employee, a Consultant, or a Director, as applicable; provided, however, that the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may provide (in an Award Agreement or otherwise) that a Performance Stock Unit award may vest and be settled subsequent to a Termination of Service in certain events, including a Change in Control; the Holder’s death, retirement, or disability; or any other specified Termination of Service.

12.2 Tax Withholding. The Company or any Subsidiary shall have the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Holder to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, local, and foreign taxes (including the Holder’s FICA, employment tax, or other social security contribution obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect to any taxable event concerning a Holder arising as a result of the Plan or any Award. The Administrator may, in its sole discretion and in satisfaction of the foregoing requirement, allow a Holder to satisfy such obligations by any payment means described in Section 12.1 hereof, including without limitation, by allowing such Holder to have the Company or any Subsidiary withhold Shares otherwise issuable under an Award (or allow the surrender of Shares). The number of Shares which may be so withheld or surrendered shall be limited to the number of Shares which have a fair market value on the date of withholding or repurchase no greater than the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the maximum statutory withholding rates for federal, state, local, and foreign income tax and payroll tax purposes that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income (or such other number as would not result in adverse financial accounting consequences for the Company or any of its Subsidiaries).

13

The Administrator shall determine the fair market value of the Shares, consistent with applicable provisions of the Code, for tax withholding obligations due in connection with a broker-assisted cashless Option or Stock Appreciation Right exercise involving the sale of Shares to pay the Option or Stock Appreciation Right exercise price or any tax withholding obligation.

12.3 Transferability of Awards.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Sections 12.3(b) and 12.3(c):

(i) No Award under the Plan may be sold, pledged, assigned, or transferred in any manner other than (A) by will or the laws of descent and distribution or (B) subject to the consent of the Administrator, pursuant to a DRO, unless and until such Award has been exercised or the Shares underlying such Award have been issued, and all restrictions applicable to such Shares have lapsed;

(ii) No Award or interest or right therein shall be liable for or otherwise subject to the debts, contracts, or engagements of the Holder or the Holder’s successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, hypothecation, encumbrance, assignment, or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment, or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy) unless and until such Award has been exercised, or the Shares underlying such Award have been issued, and all restrictions applicable to such Shares have lapsed, and any attempted disposition of an Award prior to satisfaction of these conditions shall be null and void and of no effect, except to the extent that such disposition is permitted by Section 12.3(a)(i); and

(iii) During the lifetime of the Holder, only the Holder may exercise any exercisable portion of an Award granted to such Holder under the Plan, unless it has been disposed of pursuant to a DRO. After the death of the Holder, any exercisable portion of an Award may, prior to the time when such portion becomes unexercisable under the Plan or the applicable Program or Award Agreement, be exercised by the Holder’s personal representative or by any person empowered to do so under the deceased Holder’s will or under the then-applicable laws of descent and distribution.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 12.3(a), the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may determine to permit a Holder or a Permitted Transferee of such Holder to transfer an Award other than an Incentive Stock Option (unless such Incentive Stock Option is intended to become a Non-Qualified Stock Option) to any one or more Permitted Transferees of such Holder, subject to the following terms and conditions: (i) an Award transferred to a Permitted Transferee shall not be assignable or transferable by the Permitted Transferee other than (A) to another Permitted Transferee of the applicable Holder or (B) by will or the laws of descent and distribution or, subject to the consent of the Administrator, pursuant to a DRO; (ii) an Award transferred to a Permitted Transferee shall continue to be subject to all the terms and conditions of the Award as applicable to the original Holder (other than the ability to further transfer the Award to any person other than another Permitted Transferee of the applicable Holder); and (iii) the Holder (or transferring Permitted Transferee) and the receiving Permitted Transferee shall execute any and all documents requested by the Administrator, including, without limitation documents to (A) confirm the status of the transferee as a Permitted Transferee, (B) satisfy any requirements for an exemption for the transfer under Applicable Law, and (C) evidence the transfer. In addition, and further notwithstanding Section 12.3(a), hereof, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may determine to permit a Holder to transfer Incentive Stock Options to a trust that constitutes a Permitted Transferee if, under Section 671 of the Code and other Applicable Law, the Holder is considered the sole beneficial owner of the Incentive Stock Option while it is held in the trust.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 12.3(a), a Holder may, in the manner determined by the Administrator, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights of the Holder and to receive any distribution with respect to any Award upon the Holder’s death. A beneficiary, legal guardian, legal representative, or other person claiming any rights pursuant to the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Program or Award Agreement applicable to the Holder and any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Administrator. If the Holder is married or a domestic partner in a domestic partnership qualified under Applicable Law and resides in a community property state, a designation of a person other than the Holder’s spouse or domestic partner, as applicable, as the Holder’s beneficiary with respect to more than fifty percent (50%) of the Holder’s interest in the Award shall not be effective without the prior written or electronic consent of the Holder’s spouse or domestic partner. If no beneficiary has been designated or survives the Holder,

14

payment shall be made to the person entitled thereto pursuant to the Holder’s will or the laws of descent and distribution. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by a Holder at any time; provided that the change or revocation is delivered in writing to the Administrator prior to the Holder’s death.

12.4 Conditions to Issuance of Shares.

(a) The Administrator shall determine the methods by which Shares shall be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Holders. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates or make any book entries evidencing Shares pursuant to the exercise of any Award, unless and until the Administrator has determined, with advice of counsel, that the issuance of such Shares is in compliance with Applicable Law and the Shares are covered by an effective registration statement or applicable exemption from registration. In addition to the terms and conditions provided herein, the Administrator may require that a Holder make such reasonable covenants, agreements, and representations as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, deems advisable in order to comply with Applicable Law.

(b) All share certificates delivered pursuant to the Plan and all Shares issued pursuant to book entry procedures are subject to any stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Administrator deems necessary or advisable to comply with Applicable Law. The Administrator may place legends on any share certificate or book entry to reference restrictions applicable to the Shares (including, without limitation, restrictions applicable to Restricted Stock).

(c) The Administrator shall have the right to require any Holder to comply with any timing or other restrictions with respect to the settlement, distribution, or exercise of any Award, including a window-period limitation, as may be imposed in the sole discretion of the Administrator.

(d) No fractional Shares shall be issued and the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether cash shall be given in lieu of fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares shall be eliminated by rounding down.

(e) The Company, in its sole discretion, may (i) retain physical possession of any stock certificate evidencing Shares until any restrictions thereon or Performance Criteria applicable thereto shall have lapsed or been achieved and/or (ii) require that the stock certificates evidencing such Shares be held in custody by a designated escrow agent (which may but need not be the Company) until the restrictions thereon shall have lapsed, and that the Holder deliver a stock power, endorsed in blank, relating to such Shares.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator or required by Applicable Law, the Company shall not deliver to any Holder certificates evidencing Shares issued in connection with any Award and instead such Shares shall be recorded in the books of the Company (or, as applicable, its transfer agent or stock plan administrator).

12.5 Forfeiture and Claw-Back Provisions. All Awards (including any proceeds, gains, or other economic benefit actually or constructively received by a Holder upon any receipt or exercise of any Award or upon the receipt or resale of any Shares underlying the Award and any payments of a portion of an incentive-based bonus pool allocated to a Holder) shall be subject to the provisions of any claw-back policy implemented by the Company, including, without limitation, any claw-back policy adopted to comply with the requirements of Applicable Law, including, without limitation, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, whether or not such claw-back policy was in place at the time of grant of an Award, to the extent set forth in such claw-back policy and/or in the applicable Award Agreement.

12.6 Repricing Permitted. The Administrator will, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, have the authority to (a) amend any outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right or other purchase right to reduce its exercise price per Share, (b) cancel any Option or Stock Appreciation Right or other purchase right in exchange for cash or another Award, or (c) permit any repricing of such awards to be accomplished through repurchase or otherwise, in each case in addition to the adjustments or substitutions in accordance with Section 14.2.

12.7 Amendment of Awards. Subject to Applicable Law, the Administrator may amend, modify, or terminate any outstanding Award, including but not limited to, substituting therefor another Award of the same or a different type, changing the date of exercise or settlement, and converting an Incentive Stock Option to a Non-Qualified Stock

15

Option. The Holder’s consent to such action shall be required unless (a) the Administrator determines that the action, taking into account any related action, would not materially and adversely affect the Holder or (b) the change is otherwise permitted under the Plan (including, without limitation, under Section 14.2 or 14.9).

12.8 Data Privacy. As a condition of receipt of any Award, each Holder explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use, and transfer, in electronic or other form, of personal data as described in this Section 12.8 by and among, as applicable, the Company and its Subsidiaries for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering, and managing the Holder’s participation in the Plan. The Company and its Subsidiaries may hold certain personal information about a Holder, including but not limited to, the Holder’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title(s), any shares of stock held in the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, details of all Awards, in each case, for the purpose of implementing, managing, and administering the Plan and Awards (the “Data”). The Company and its Subsidiaries may transfer the Data amongst themselves as necessary for the purpose of implementation, administration, and management of a Holder’s participation in the Plan, and the Company and its Subsidiaries may each further transfer the Data to any third parties assisting the Company and its Subsidiaries in the implementation, administration, and management of the Plan. These recipients may be located in the Holder’s country, or elsewhere, and the Holder’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the recipients’ country. Through acceptance of an Award, each Holder authorizes such recipients to receive, possess, use, retain, and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering, and managing the Holder’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to a broker or other third party with whom the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the Holder may elect to deposit any Shares. The Data related to a Holder will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer, and manage the Holder’s participation in the Plan. A Holder may, at any time, view the Data held by the Company with respect to such Holder, request additional information about the storage and processing of the Data with respect to such Holder, recommend any necessary corrections to the Data with respect to the Holder or refuse or withdraw the consents herein in writing, in any case without cost, by contacting their local human resources representative. The Company may cancel the Holder’s ability to participate in the Plan and, in the Administrator’s discretion, the Holder may forfeit any outstanding Awards if the Holder refuses or withdraws their consents as described herein. For more information on the consequences of refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, Holders may contact their local human resources representative.

ARTICLE 13.

 

ADMINISTRATION

13.1 Administrator. The Committee shall administer the Plan (except as otherwise permitted herein). To the extent necessary to comply with Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act, the Committee shall take all action with respect to such Awards, and the individuals taking such action shall consist solely of two or more Non-Employee Directors, each of whom is intended to qualify as a “non-employee director” as defined by Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act or any successor rule. Additionally, to the extent required by Applicable Law, each of the individuals constituting the Committee shall be an “independent director” under the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted, or traded. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action taken by the Committee shall be valid and effective, whether or not members of the Committee at the time of such action are later determined not to have satisfied the requirements for membership set forth in this Section 13.1 or the Organizational Documents. Except as may otherwise be provided in the Organizational Documents or as otherwise required by Applicable Law, (a) appointment of Committee members shall be effective upon acceptance of appointment, (b) Committee members may resign at any time by delivering written or electronic notice to the Board, and (c) vacancies in the Committee may only be filled by the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the full Board, acting by a majority of its members in office, shall conduct the general administration of the Plan with respect to Awards granted to Non-Employee Directors and, with respect to such Awards, the term “Administrator” as used in the Plan shall be deemed to refer to the Board and (ii) the Board or Committee may delegate its authority hereunder to the extent permitted by Section 13.6.

13.2 Duties and Powers of Administrator. It shall be the duty of the Administrator to conduct the general administration of the Plan in accordance with its provisions. The Administrator shall have the power to interpret the Plan, all Programs, and Award Agreements; to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation, and application of the Plan and any Program as are not inconsistent with the Plan; and to interpret, amend, or revoke any such rules and to amend the Plan or any Program or Award Agreement; provided that the rights or obligations of the Holder of

16

the Award that is the subject of any such Program or Award Agreement are not materially and adversely affected by such amendment, unless the consent of the Holder is obtained or such amendment is otherwise permitted under Section 12.7 or 14.9. In its sole discretion, the Board may at any time and from time to time exercise any and all rights and duties of the Committee in its capacity as the Administrator under the Plan except with respect to matters which under Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act or any successor rule, or the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted, or traded are required to be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee.

13.3 Action by the Administrator. Unless otherwise established by the Board, set forth in any Organizational Documents, or as required by Applicable Law, a majority of the Administrator shall constitute a quorum and the acts of a majority of the members present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, and acts approved in writing by all members of the Administrator in lieu of a meeting, shall be deemed the acts of the Administrator. Each member of the Administrator is entitled to, in good faith, rely or act upon any report or other information furnished to that member by any officer or other employee of the Company or any Subsidiary, the Company’s independent certified public accountants, or any executive compensation consultant or other professional retained by the Company to assist in the administration of the Plan.

13.4 Authority of Administrator. Subject to the Organizational Documents, any specific designation in the Plan and Applicable Law, the Administrator has the exclusive power, authority, and sole discretion to:

(a) Designate Eligible Individuals to receive Awards;

(b) Determine the type or types of Awards to be granted to each Eligible Individual (including, without limitation, any Awards granted in tandem with another Award granted pursuant to the Plan, provided, however, that Incentive Stock Options may not be granted in tandem with Non-Qualified Stock Options);

(c) Determine the number of Awards to be granted and the number of Shares to which an Award will relate;

(d) Determine the terms and conditions of any Award granted pursuant to the Plan, including, but not limited to, the exercise price, grant price, purchase price, any Performance Criteria, any restrictions or limitations on the Award, any schedule for vesting, lapse of forfeiture restrictions or restrictions on the exercisability of an Award, and accelerations or waivers thereof, and any provisions related to non-competition and claw-back and recapture of gain on an Award, based in each case on such considerations as the Administrator in its sole discretion determines;

(e) Determine whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances an Award may be settled in, or the exercise price of an Award may be paid in, cash, Shares, other Awards, or other property, or an Award may be canceled, forfeited, or surrendered;

(f) Prescribe the form of each Award Agreement, which need not be identical for each Holder;

(g) Decide all other matters that must be determined in connection with an Award;

(h) Establish, adopt, or revise any Programs, rules, and regulations as it may deem necessary or advisable to administer the Plan;

(i) Interpret the terms of, and any matter arising pursuant to, the Plan, any Program, or any Award Agreement;

(j) Make all other decisions and determinations that may be required pursuant to the Plan or as the Administrator deems necessary or advisable to administer the Plan; and

(k) Accelerate wholly or partially the vesting or lapse of restrictions of any Award or portion thereof at any time after the grant of an Award, subject to whatever terms and conditions it selects and Section 14.2.

13.5 Decisions Binding. The Administrator’s interpretation of the Plan, any Awards granted pursuant to the Plan, any Program or any Award Agreement, and all decisions and determinations by the Administrator with respect to the Plan are final, binding, and conclusive on all persons.

13.6 Delegation of Authority. The Board or Committee may from time to time delegate to a committee of one or more members of the Board or one or more officers of the Company the authority to grant or amend Awards or to take other administrative actions pursuant to this Article 13; provided, however, that in no event shall an officer

17

of the Company be delegated the authority to grant Awards to, or amend Awards held by, the following individuals: (a) individuals who are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act or (b) officers of the Company (or Directors) to whom authority to grant or amend Awards has been delegated hereunder; provided, further, that any delegation of administrative authority shall only be permitted to the extent it is permissible under any Organizational Documents and Applicable Law. Any delegation hereunder shall be subject to the restrictions and limits that the Board or Committee specifies at the time of such delegation or that are otherwise included in the applicable Organizational Documents, and the Board or Committee, as applicable, may at any time rescind the authority so delegated or appoint a new delegatee. At all times, the delegatee appointed under this Section 13.6 shall serve in such capacity at the pleasure of the Board or the Committee, as applicable, and the Board or the Committee may abolish any committee at any time and re-vest in itself any previously delegated authority.

ARTICLE 14.

 

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

14.1 Amendment, Suspension, or Termination of the Plan.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 14.1(b), the Plan may be wholly or partially amended or otherwise modified, suspended, or terminated at any time or from time to time by the Board; provided that, except as provided in Section 12.7 and 14.9, no amendment, suspension, or termination of the Plan shall, without the consent of the Holder, materially and adversely affect any rights or obligations under any Award theretofore granted or awarded, unless the Award itself otherwise expressly so provides.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 14.1(a) and except as provided in Section 14.2, the Board may not without approval of the Company’s stockholders given within twelve (12) months before or after such action increase the Share Limit.

(c) No Awards may be granted or awarded during any period of suspension or after termination of the Plan, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event may any Incentive Stock Option be granted under the Plan after the tenth (10th) anniversary of the earlier of (i) the date on which the Plan was adopted by the Board or (ii) the date the Plan was approved by the Company’s stockholders. No Awards may be granted under the Plan after the ten-year anniversary of the Effective Date.

14.2 Changes in Common Stock or Assets of the Company, Acquisition, or Liquidation of the Company and Other Corporate Events.

(a) In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation, or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to stockholders, or any other change affecting the shares of the Company’s stock or the share price of the Company’s stock other than an Equity Restructuring, the Administrator may make equitable adjustments, if any, to reflect such change with respect to: (i) the aggregate number and kind of Shares that may be issued under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the Share Limit, the number of shares that may be issued as Incentive Stock Options, any per individual share limit, and kind of Shares (or other securities or property) which may be issued under the Plan); (ii) the number and kind of Shares (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards; (iii) the terms and conditions of any outstanding Awards (including, without limitation, any applicable performance targets or criteria with respect thereto); and (iv) the grant or exercise price per share for any outstanding Awards under the Plan.

(b) In the event of any transaction or event described in Section 14.2(a) or any unusual or nonrecurring transactions or events affecting the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company, or the financial statements of the Company or any Subsidiary, or of changes in Applicable Law or Applicable Accounting Standards, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, either by the terms of the Award or by action taken prior to the occurrence of such transaction or event, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the following actions whenever the Administrator determines that such action is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any Award under the Plan, to facilitate such transactions or events or to give effect to such changes in Applicable Law or Applicable Accounting Standards:

(i) To provide for the termination of any such Award in exchange for an amount of cash and/or other property with a value equal to the amount that would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award

18

or realization of the Holder’s rights (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction or event described in this Section 14.2 the Administrator determines in good faith that no amount would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Holder’s rights, then such Award may be terminated by the Company without payment);

(ii) To provide that such Award be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by similar options, rights, or awards covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and applicable exercise or purchase price, in all cases, as determined by the Administrator;

(iii) To make adjustments in the number and type of Shares of the Company’s stock (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards and/or in the terms and conditions of (including the grant or exercise price), and the criteria included in, outstanding Awards and Awards which may be granted in the future;

(iv) To provide that such Award shall be exercisable or payable or fully vested with respect to all Shares covered thereby, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or the applicable Program or Award Agreement;

(v) To replace such Award with other rights or property selected by the Administrator; and/or

(vi) To provide that the Award cannot vest, be exercised, or become payable after such event.

(c) In connection with the occurrence of any Equity Restructuring, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 14.2(a) and 14.2(b):

(i) The number and type of securities subject to each outstanding Award and the exercise price or grant price thereof, if applicable, shall be equitably adjusted (and the adjustments provided under this Section 14.2(c)(i) shall be nondiscretionary and shall be final and binding on the affected Holder and the Company); and/or

(ii) The Administrator shall make such equitable adjustments, if any, as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may deem appropriate to reflect such Equity Restructuring with respect to the aggregate number and kind of Shares that may be issued under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the Share Limit, the number of shares that may be issued as Incentive Stock Options, any per individual share limit, and kind of Shares (or securities or other property) which may be issued under the Plan).

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, in the event of a Change in Control, unless otherwise provided by the Administrator in an Award Agreement, each Award shall be treated as determined by the Administrator, including, but not limited to, the Administrator electing to (i) terminate an Award in exchange for cash, rights, or property, (ii) cause an Award to become fully exercisable and no longer subject to any forfeiture restrictions prior to the consummation of a Change in Control, pursuant to Section 14.2, or (iii) provide that such Award (other than any portion subject to performance-based vesting) shall continue in effect or be assumed or an equivalent Award substituted by the successor entity or a parent or subsidiary of the successor entity, with the portion of any such Award subject to performance-based vesting treated in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Award Agreement and, in the absence of applicable terms and conditions, the Administrator’s discretion, provided, that in the event a Holder experiences a Termination of Service by the Company for other than Cause or by the Holder for Good Reason, in either case within two years following such Change in Control, then the vesting and, if applicable, exercisability of one hundred percent (100%) of the then-unvested Shares (or other securities or property) subject to the outstanding Awards held by such Holder shall accelerate upon the date of such Termination of Service. The treatment of each Award determined by the Administrator does not need to be the same for all Awards or Participants.

(e) In the event that the successor entity in a Change in Control refuses to assume or substitute for an Award (other than any portion subject to performance-based vesting), the Administrator shall cause such Award to become fully vested and, if applicable, exercisable immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction and all forfeiture restrictions on such Award to lapse and, to the extent unexercised upon the consummation of such transaction, to terminate in exchange for cash, rights, or other property pursuant to Section 14.2(d). The Administrator shall notify the Holder of any Award that becomes exercisable pursuant to the preceding sentence

19

that such Award shall be fully exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice, contingent upon the occurrence of the Change in Control, and such Award shall terminate upon the consummation of the Change in Control in accordance with the preceding sentence.

(f) For the purposes of this Section 14.2, an Award shall be considered assumed if, following the Change in Control, the Award confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share subject to the Award immediately prior to the Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the Change in Control by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the Change in Control was not solely common equity of the successor entity or its parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor entity, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Award, for each Share subject to an Award, to be solely common equity of the successor entity or its parent equal in fair market value to the per-share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the Change in Control.

(g) The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may include such further provisions and limitations in any Award, agreement, or certificate, as it may deem equitable and in the best interests of the Company that are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan.

(h) Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, no adjustment or action described in this Section 14.2 or in any other provision of the Plan shall be authorized to the extent it would (i) cause the Plan to violate Section 422(b)(1) of the Code, (ii) result in short-swing profits liability under Section 16 of the Exchange Act or violate the exemptive conditions of Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act, or (iii) cause an Award to fail to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A.

(i) The existence of the Plan, any Program, any Award Agreement, and/or the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Company or the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization, or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business; any merger or consolidation of the Company; any issue of stock or of options, warrants, or rights to purchase stock or of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stocks whose rights are superior to or affect the Common Stock or the rights thereof or which are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock; the dissolution or liquidation of the Company; any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business; or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.

(j) In the event of any pending stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation, or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to stockholders, or any other change affecting the Shares or the share price of the Common Stock including any Equity Restructuring, for reasons of administrative convenience, the Company, in its sole discretion, may refuse to permit the exercise of any Award during a period of up to thirty (30) days prior to the consummation of any such transaction.

14.3 No Stockholders’ Rights. Except as otherwise provided herein or in an applicable Program or Award Agreement, a Holder shall have none of the rights of a stockholder with respect to Shares covered by any Award until the Holder becomes the record owner of such Shares.

14.4 Paperless Administration. In the event that the Company establishes, for itself or using the services of a third party, an automated system for the documentation, granting, or exercise of Awards, such as a system using an internet website or interactive voice response, then the paperless documentation, granting, or exercise of Awards by a Holder may be permitted through the use of such an automated system.

14.5 Effect of Plan upon Other Compensation Plans. The adoption of the Plan shall not affect any other compensation or incentive plans in effect for the Company or any Subsidiary. Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to limit the right of the Company or any Subsidiary: (a) to establish any other forms of incentives or compensation for Eligible Individuals or (b) to grant or assume options or other rights or awards otherwise than under the Plan in connection with any proper corporate purpose including, without limitation, the grant or assumption of options in connection with the acquisition by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation, or otherwise of the business, stock, or assets of any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, firm, or association.

14.6 Compliance with Laws. The Plan, the granting and vesting of Awards under the Plan, and the issuance and delivery of Shares and the payment of money under the Plan or under Awards granted or awarded hereunder are

20

subject to compliance with all Applicable Law (including, but not limited to, state, federal, and foreign securities law and margin requirements), and to such approvals by any listing, regulatory, or governmental authority as may, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith. Any securities delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such restrictions, and the person acquiring such securities shall, if requested by the Company, provide such assurances and representations to the Company as the Company may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance with all Applicable Law. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may take whatever actions it deems necessary or appropriate to effect compliance with Applicable Law, including, without limitation, placing legends on share certificates and issuing stop-transfer notices to agents and registrars. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Administrator may not take any actions hereunder, and no Awards shall be granted, that would violate Applicable Law. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Plan and Awards granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to Applicable Law.

14.7 Titles and Headings; References to Sections of the Code or Exchange Act. The titles and headings of the Sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only and, in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control. References to sections of the Code or the Exchange Act shall include any amendment or successor thereto.

14.8 Governing Law. The Plan and any Programs and Award Agreements hereunder shall be administered, interpreted, and enforced under the internal laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflicts of laws thereof or of any other jurisdiction.

14.9 Section 409A. To the extent that the Administrator determines that any Award granted under the Plan is subject to Section 409A, the Plan, the Program pursuant to which such Award is granted, and the Award Agreement evidencing such Award shall incorporate the terms and conditions required by Section 409A. In that regard, to the extent any Award under the Plan or any other compensatory plan or arrangement of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is subject to Section 409A, and such Award or other amount is payable on account of a Holder’s Termination of Service (or any similarly defined term), then (a) such Award or amount shall only be paid to the extent such Termination of Service qualifies as a “separation from service” as defined in Section 409A and (b) if such Award or amount is payable to a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A, then to the extent required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A, such Award or other compensatory payment shall not be payable prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of the Holder’s Termination of Service or (ii) the date of the Holder’s death. To the extent applicable, the Plan, the Program, and any Award Agreements shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event that following the Effective Date the Administrator determines that any Award may be subject to Section 409A, the Administrator may (but is not obligated to), without a Holder’s consent, adopt such amendments to the Plan and the applicable Program and Award Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies, and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Administrator determines are necessary or appropriate to (A) exempt the Award from Section 409A and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided with respect to the Award or (B) comply with the requirements of Section 409A and thereby avoid the application of any penalty taxes under Section 409A. The Company makes no representations or warranties as to the tax treatment of any Award under Section 409A or otherwise. The Company shall have no obligation under this Section 14.9 or otherwise to take any action (whether or not described herein) to avoid the imposition of taxes, penalties, or interest under Section 409A with respect to any Award and shall have no liability to any Holder or any other person if any Award, compensation, or other benefits under the Plan are determined to constitute non-compliant, “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to the imposition of taxes, penalties, and/or interest under Section 409A.

14.10 Unfunded Status of Awards. The Plan is intended to be an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Holder pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Program or Award Agreement shall give the Holder any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company or any Subsidiary.

14.11 Indemnification. To the extent permitted under Applicable Law and the Organizational Documents, each member of the Administrator shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such member in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which they may be a party or in which they may be involved by reason of any action or failure to act pursuant to the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by them in satisfaction of judgment in such action, suit, or proceeding against them; provided they give the Company an opportunity, at its

21

own expense, to handle and defend the same before they undertake to handle and defend it on their own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled pursuant to the Organizational Documents, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.

14.12 Relationship to other Benefits. No payment pursuant to the Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare, or other benefit plan of the Company or any Subsidiary except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder.

14.13 Expenses. The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company and its Subsidiaries.

Exhibit 10.7

2024 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

ADOPTED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS: July 26, 2024,

1. GENERAL; PURPOSE.

(a) The Plan provides a means by which Eligible Employees of the Company and certain designated Related Corporations may be given an opportunity to purchase shares of Common Stock. The Plan permits the Company to grant a series of Purchase Rights to Eligible Employees under an Employee Stock Purchase Plan. In addition, the Plan permits the Company to grant a series of Purchase Rights to Eligible Employees, which rights do not meet the requirements of an Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

(b) The Plan includes two components: a Section 423 Component and a Non-Section 423 Component, which may be operated in the discretion of the Board. The Company intends the 423 Component to qualify as an Employee Stock Purchase Plan, which will be construed in a manner that is consistent with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or determined by the Board, if operated, the Non-Section 423 Component will operate and be administered in the same manner as the 423 Component.

(c) The Plan provides eligible employees of the Company and Related Corporations with a means of acquiring an equity interest in the Company through payroll deductions and cash Contributions. The purpose of the Plan is to secure the services of new employees, to retain the services of existing employees, and to provide incentives for such individuals to exert maximum efforts toward the success of the Company and its Related Corporations.

2. ADMINISTRATION.

(a) The Board or the Committee will administer the Plan. References herein to the Board shall be deemed to refer to the Committee except where context dictates otherwise.

(b) The Board will have the power, subject to, and within the limitations of, the express provisions of the Plan:

(i) To determine how and when Purchase Rights will be granted and the provisions of each Offering (which need not be identical).

(ii) To designate from time to time (A) which Related Corporations of the Company will be eligible to participate in the Plan, (B) whether such Related Corporations will participate in the 423 Component or the Non-Section 423 Component, and (C) to the extent that the Company makes separate Offerings under the 423 Component, in which Offering the Related Corporations in the 423 Component will participate.

(iii) To construe and interpret the Plan and Purchase Rights, and to establish, amend, and revoke rules and regulations for its administration. The Board, in the exercise of this power, may correct any defect, omission, or inconsistency in the Plan, Offering, or Purchase Period in a manner and to the extent it deems necessary or expedient to make the Plan fully effective.

(iv) To settle all controversies regarding the Plan and Purchase Rights granted under the Plan.

(v) To suspend or terminate the Plan at any time as provided in Section 12.

(vi) To amend the Plan at any time as provided in Section 12.

(vii)  Generally, to exercise such powers and to perform such acts as it deems necessary or expedient to promote the best interests of the Company and its Related Corporations and to carry out the intent that the Plan be treated as an Employee Stock Purchase Plan with respect to the 423 Component.

(viii) To adopt such rules, procedures, and sub-plans as are necessary or appropriate to permit or facilitate participation in the Plan by Employees who are foreign nationals or employed or located outside the United States. Without limiting the generality of, and consistent with, the foregoing, the Board specifically is authorized to adopt rules, procedures, and sub-plans regarding, without limitation, eligibility to participate in the Plan, the definition of eligible “earnings,” handling and making of Contributions, establishment of bank or trust accounts to hold Contributions, payment of interest, conversion of local currency, obligations to pay payroll tax,

1

determination of beneficiary designation requirements, withholding procedures, and handling of share issuances, any of which may vary according to applicable requirements, and which, if applicable to a Related Corporation designated for participation in the Non-423 Component, do not have to comply with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code.

(c) The Board may delegate some or all of the administration of the Plan to a Committee or Committees from time to time in accordance with the terms provided in a Board resolution or determination. If administration is delegated to a Committee, the Committee will have, in connection with the administration of the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed by the Board that have been delegated to the Committee, including the power to delegate to a subcommittee any of the administrative powers the Committee is authorized to exercise (and references in this Plan to the Board will thereafter be to the Committee or subcommittee), subject, however, to such resolutions and determinations, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as may be adopted from time to time by the Board. The Board may retain the authority to concurrently administer the Plan with the Committee and may, at any time, revest in the Board some or all of the powers previously delegated.

(d) All determinations, interpretations, and constructions made by the Board in good faith will not be subject to review by any person and will be final, binding, and conclusive on all persons.

3. SHARES OF COMMON STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 11(a) relating to Capitalization Adjustments, a total of 441,293 shares of Common Stock is reserved for issuance under this Plan. In addition, on each January 1 for the ten (10) calendar years immediately after the first Offering Date, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan will be increased automatically by the number of shares equal to one percent (1%) of the total number of outstanding shares of the Common Stock on the immediately preceding December 31 (rounded down to the nearest whole share); provided that the Board or the Committee may in its sole discretion reduce the amount of the increase in any particular year. For the avoidance of doubt, up to the maximum number of shares of Common Stock reserved under this Section 3(a) may be used to satisfy purchases of Common Stock under the 423 Component, and any remaining portion of such maximum number of shares may be used to satisfy purchases of Common Stock under the Non-423 Component.

(b) If any Purchase Right granted under the Plan terminates without having been exercised in full, the shares of Common Stock represented by and not purchased under such Purchase Right will again become available for issuance under the Plan.

(c) The stock purchasable under the Plan will be shares of authorized but unissued or reacquired Common Stock, including shares repurchased by the Company on the open market.

4. GRANT OF PURCHASE RIGHTS; OFFERING.

(a) The Board may from time to time grant, or provide for the grant, of Purchase Rights to Eligible Employees under an Offering (which may consist of one or more Purchase Periods) on an Offering Date or Offering Dates selected by the Board. Each Offering will be in such form and will contain such terms and conditions as the Board will deem appropriate, and, with respect to the 423 Component, will comply with the requirement of Section 423(b)(5) of the Code that all Employees granted Purchase Rights will have the same rights and privileges.

Offerings may be consecutive or overlapping. The terms and conditions of an Offering shall be incorporated by reference into the Plan and treated as part of the Plan. The provisions of separate Offerings need not be identical, but each Offering will include (through incorporation of the provisions of this Plan by reference in the document comprising the Offering or otherwise) the period during which the Offering will be effective, which period will not exceed 27 months beginning with the Offering Date, and the substance of the provisions contained in Sections 5 through 8, inclusive.

(b) If a Participant has more than one Purchase Right outstanding under the Plan, unless they otherwise indicate in forms delivered to the Company: (i) each form will apply to all of his or her Purchase Rights under the Plan, and (ii) a Purchase Right with a lower exercise price (or an earlier-granted Purchase Right, if different Purchase Rights have identical exercise prices) will be exercised to the fullest possible extent before a Purchase Right with a higher exercise price (or a later-granted Purchase Right if different Purchase Rights have identical exercise prices) will be exercised.

2

(c) The Board will have the discretion to structure an Offering so that if the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the first Trading Day of a new Purchase Period within that Offering is less than or equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Offering Date for that Offering, then (i) that Offering will terminate immediately as of that first Trading Day, and (ii) the Participants in such terminated Offering will be automatically enrolled in a new Offering beginning on the first Trading Day of such new Purchase Period.

5. ELIGIBILITY.

(a)  Purchase Rights may be granted only to Employees of the Company or, as the Board may designate in accordance with Section 2(b), to Employees of a Related Corporation. Except as provided in Section 5(b) or as required by Applicable Law, an Employee will not be eligible to be granted Purchase Rights unless, on the Offering Date, the Employee has been in the employ of the Company or the Related Corporation, as the case may be, for such continuous period preceding such Offering Date as the Board may require, but in no event will the required period of continuous employment be equal to or greater than two years. In addition, the Board may (unless prohibited by law) provide that no Employee will be eligible to be granted Purchase Rights under the Plan unless, on the Offering Date, such Employee’s customary employment with the Company or the Related Corporation is more than 20 hours per week and more than five months per calendar year or such other criteria as the Board may determine consistent with Section 423 of the Code with respect to the 423 Component. The Board may also exclude from participation in the Plan or any Offering Employees who are (i) “highly compensated employees” of the Company or a Related Corporation (within the meaning of Section 414(q) of the Code), or (ii) “highly compensated employees” with compensation above a specified level, who is an officer and/or is subject to the disclosure requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.

(b) The Board may provide that each person who, during the course of an Offering, first becomes an Eligible Employee will, on a date or dates specified in the Offering which coincides with the day on which such person becomes an Eligible Employee or which occurs thereafter, receive a Purchase Right under that Offering, which Purchase Right will thereafter be deemed to be a part of that Offering. Such Purchase Right will have the same characteristics as any Purchase Rights originally granted under that Offering, as described herein, except that:

(i) the date on which such Purchase Right is granted will be the “Offering Date” of such Purchase Right for all purposes, including determination of the exercise price of such Purchase Right;

(ii) the period of the Offering with respect to such Purchase Right will begin on its Offering Date and end coincident with the end of such Offering; and

(iii) the Board may provide that if such person first becomes an Eligible Employee within a specified period of time before the end of the Offering, they will not receive any Purchase Right under that Offering.

(c) No Employee will be eligible for the grant of any Purchase Rights if, immediately after any such Purchase Rights are granted, such Employee owns stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Related Corporation. For purposes of this Section 5(c), the rules of Section 424(d) of the Code will apply in determining the stock ownership of any Employee, and stock which such Employee may purchase under all outstanding Purchase Rights and options will be treated as stock owned by such Employee.

(d) As specified by Section 423(b)(8) of the Code, an Eligible Employee may be granted Purchase Rights only if such Purchase Rights, together with any other rights granted under all Employee Stock Purchase Plans of the Company and any Related Corporations, do not permit such Eligible Employee’s rights to purchase stock of the Company or any Related Corporation to accrue at a rate which, when aggregated, exceeds $25,000 in Fair Market Value of such stock (determined at the time such rights are granted, and which, with respect to the Plan, will be determined as of their respective Offering Dates) for each calendar year in which such rights are outstanding at any time.

(e) Unless otherwise determined to be ineligible to participate under the preceding sections, Officers of the Company and any designated Related Corporation, if they are otherwise Eligible Employees, will be eligible to participate in Offerings under the Plan.

(f)  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5 to the contrary, in the case of an Offering under the Non-Section 423 Component, an Eligible Employee (or group of Eligible Employees) may be excluded from participation in the Plan or an Offering if the Board has determined, in its sole discretion, that participation of such Eligible Employee(s) is not advisable or practical for any reason.

3

6. PURCHASE RIGHTS; PURCHASE PRICE.

(a) On each Offering Date, each Eligible Employee, pursuant to an Offering made under the Plan, will be granted a Purchase Right to purchase up to that number of shares of Common Stock which may be purchased with payroll deductions to be accumulated on behalf of such Eligible Employee assuming payroll deductions at a rate of twenty-five percent (25% ) of such Eligible Employee’s earnings (or such other lesser percentage or maximum dollar amount designated by the Board, and as defined by the Board in each Offering) during the period that begins on the Offering Date (or such later date as the Board determines for a particular Offering) and ends on the date stated in the Offering, which date will be no later than the end of the Offering, and a purchase price equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value as of the Offering Date.

(b) The Board will establish one or more Purchase Dates during an Offering on which Purchase Rights granted for that Offering will be exercised and shares of Common Stock will be purchased in accordance with such Offering.

(c) In connection with each Offering made under the Plan, the Board may specify (i) a maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by any Participant on any Purchase Date during such Offering, (ii) a maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by all Participants pursuant to such Offering, and/or (iii) a maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by all Participants on any Purchase Date under the Offering. If the aggregate purchase of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Purchase Rights granted under the Offering would exceed any such maximum aggregate number, then, in the absence of any Board action otherwise, a pro rata (based on each Participant’s accumulated Contributions) allocation of the shares of Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) available will be made in as nearly a uniform manner as will be practicable and equitable.

(d) The purchase price of shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to Purchase Rights will be not less than the lesser of:

(i) an amount equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the Offering Date; or

(ii) an amount equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the applicable Purchase Date.

7. PARTICIPATION; WITHDRAWAL; TERMINATION.

(a) An Eligible Employee may elect to participate in an Offering and authorize payroll deductions as the means of making Contributions by completing and delivering to the Company, within the time specified in the Offering, an enrollment form, provided by the Company. The enrollment form will specify the amount of Contributions not to exceed fifteen percent (15%) and not less than one percent (1%) of such Eligible Employee’s earnings (as defined by the Board in each Offering) during the Offering, or such other maximum amount specified by the Board. Each Participant’s Contributions will be credited to a bookkeeping account for such Participant under the Plan and will be deposited with the general funds of the Company except where Applicable Law requires that Contributions be deposited with a third party. If permitted in the Offering, a Participant may begin such Contributions with the first payroll occurring on or after the Offering Date (or, in the case of a payroll date that occurs after the end of the prior Offering but before the Offering Date of the next new Offering, Contributions from such payroll will be included in the new Offering). If permitted in the Offering, and subject to any limitations imposed, a Participant may thereafter reduce (including to zero) or increase their Contributions. If required under Applicable Law or if specifically provided in the Offering, in addition to or instead of making Contributions by payroll deductions, a Participant may make Contributions through payment by cash, check, or wire transfer prior to a Purchase Date and within the time period specified by the Board for the Offering.

(b) During an Offering, a Participant may cease making Contributions and withdraw from the Offering by delivering to the Company a withdrawal form provided by the Company. The Company may impose a deadline before a Purchase Date for withdrawing. Upon such withdrawal, such Participant’s Purchase Right in that Offering will immediately terminate and the Company will distribute as soon as practicable to such Participant all of their accumulated but unused Contributions and such Participant’s Purchase Right in that Offering shall thereupon terminate. A Participant’s withdrawal from that Offering will have no effect upon their eligibility to participate in any other Offerings under the Plan, but such Participant will be required to deliver a new enrollment form to participate in subsequent Offerings.

4

(c)  Unless otherwise required by Applicable Law, Purchase Rights granted pursuant to any Offering under the Plan will terminate immediately if the Participant either (i) is no longer an Employee for any (or no) reason (subject to any post-employment participation period required by law) or (ii) is otherwise no longer eligible to participate. The Company will distribute as soon as practicable to such individual all of their accumulated but unused Contributions.

(d) Unless otherwise determined by the Board, a Participant whose employment transfers or whose employment terminates with an immediate rehire (with no break in service) by or between the Company and a Related Corporation that has been designated for participation in the Plan will not be treated as having terminated employment for purposes of participating in the Plan or an Offering; however, if a Participant transfers from an Offering under the 423 Component to an Offering under the Non-Section 423 Component, the exercise of the Participant’s Purchase Right will be qualified under the 423 Component only to the extent such exercise complies with Section 423 of the Code. If a Participant transfers from an Offering under the Non-Section 423 Component to an Offering under the 423 Component, the exercise of the Purchase Right will remain non-qualified under the Non-Section 423 Component. The Board may establish different and additional rules governing transfers between separate Offerings within the 423 Component and between Offerings under the 423 Component and Offerings under the Non-Section 423 Component.

(e) During a Participant’s lifetime, Purchase Rights will be exercisable only by such Participant. Purchase Rights are not transferable by a Participant, except by will, by the laws of descent and distribution, or, if permitted by the Company, by a beneficiary designation as described in Section 10.

(f) Unless otherwise specified in the Offering or as required by Applicable Law, the Company will have no obligation to pay interest on Contributions.

8. EXERCISE OF PURCHASE RIGHTS.

(a) On each Purchase Date, each Participant’s accumulated Contributions will be applied to the purchase of shares of Common Stock, up to the maximum number of shares of Common Stock permitted by the Plan and the applicable Offering, at the purchase price specified in the Offering. No fractional shares will be issued unless specifically provided for in the Offering.

(b) Any amount remaining in a Participant’s account at the end of an Offering solely by reason of the inability to purchase a fractional share will be carried forward to the next Offering; any other balance remaining in a Participant’s account at the end of an Offering will not roll over to the next Offering and will be refunded to the Participant promptly without interest (unless otherwise required by Applicable Law).

(c) No Purchase Rights may be exercised to any extent unless the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such exercise under the Plan are covered by an effective registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act and the Plan is in material compliance with all applicable U.S. federal and state, foreign, and other securities, exchange control, and other laws applicable to the Plan. If on a Purchase Date the shares of Common Stock are not so registered or the Plan is not in such compliance, no Purchase Rights will be exercised on such Purchase Date, and the Purchase Date will be delayed until the shares of Common Stock are subject to such an effective registration statement and the Plan is in material compliance, except that the Purchase Date will in no event be more than 27 months from the Offering Date. If, on the Purchase Date, as delayed to the maximum extent permissible, the shares of Common Stock are not registered and the Plan is not in material compliance with all Applicable Laws, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, no Purchase Rights will be exercised and all accumulated but unused Contributions will be distributed to the Participants without interest (unless the payment of interest is otherwise required by Applicable Law).

9. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.

The Company will seek to obtain from each U.S. federal or state, foreign, or other regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such authority as may be required to grant Purchase Rights and issue and sell shares of Common Stock thereunder unless the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that doing so would cause the Company to incur costs that are unreasonable or a significant burden. If, after commercially reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain the authority that counsel for the Company deems necessary for the grant of Purchase Rights or the lawful issuance and sale of Common Stock under the Plan, and at a commercially reasonable cost, the Company will be relieved from any liability for failure to grant Purchase Rights and/or to issue and sell Common Stock upon exercise of such Purchase Rights.

5

10. DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY.

(a) The Company may, but is not obligated to, permit a Participant to submit a form designating a beneficiary who will receive any shares of Common Stock and/or Contributions from the Participant’s account under the Plan if the Participant dies before such shares and/or Contributions are delivered to the Participant. The Company may, but is not obligated to, permit the Participant to change such designation of beneficiary. Any such designation and/or change must be on a form approved by the Company.

(b) If a Participant dies, and in the absence of a valid beneficiary designation, the Company will deliver any shares of Common Stock and/or Contributions to the executor or administrator of the estate of the Participant. If no executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its sole discretion, may deliver such shares of Common Stock and/or Contributions, without interest (unless the payment of interest is otherwise required by Applicable Law), to the Participant’s spouse, dependents, or relatives, or if no spouse, dependent, or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate.

11. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN COMMON STOCK.

In the event of a Capitalization Adjustment, the Board will appropriately and proportionately adjust: (i) the class(es) and maximum number of securities subject to the Plan pursuant to Section 3(a), (ii) the class(es) and maximum number of securities by which the share reserve is to increase automatically each year pursuant to Section 3(a), (iii) the class(es) and number of securities subject to, and the purchase price applicable to, outstanding Offerings and Purchase Rights, and (iv) the class(es) and number of securities that are the subject of the purchase limits under each ongoing Offering. The Board will make these adjustments, and its determination will be final, binding, and conclusive.

12. AMENDMENT, TERMINATION, OR SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN.

(a) The Board may amend the Plan at any time in any respect the Board deems necessary or advisable. However, except as provided in Section 11(a) relating to Capitalization Adjustments, stockholder approval will be required for any amendment of the Plan for which stockholder approval is required by Applicable Law.

(b) The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. No Purchase Rights may be granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended or after it is terminated. In the event of a corporate transaction affecting the Company or its Related Corporations, the Board may determine to truncate any then outstanding Offering, and the Participants’ accumulated Contributions will be used to purchase shares of Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) within ten business days prior to the corporate transaction under the outstanding Purchase Rights, and the Purchase Rights will terminate immediately after such purchase, or the Board may require any surviving corporation or acquiring corporation (or the surviving or acquiring corporation’s parent company) to assume or continue outstanding Purchase Rights or substitute similar rights (including a right to acquire the same consideration paid to the stockholders in the corporate transaction) for outstanding Purchase Rights.

Any benefits, privileges, entitlements, and obligations under any outstanding Purchase Rights granted before an amendment, suspension, or termination of the Plan will not be materially impaired by any such amendment, suspension, or termination except (i) with the consent of the person to whom such Purchase Rights were granted, (ii) without the consent of a person to whom such Purchase Rights were granted, as necessary to comply with any laws, listing requirements, or governmental regulations (including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 423 of the Code and the regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder relating to Employee Stock Purchase Plans with respect to any 423 Component) including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued or amended after the date the Plan is adopted by the Board, or (iii) without the consent of a person to whom such Purchase Rights were granted, as necessary to obtain or maintain favorable tax, listing, or regulatory treatment. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or any Offering Document to the contrary, the Board will be entitled to: (i) establish the exchange ratio applicable to amounts withheld in a currency other than U.S. dollars; (ii) permit Contributions in excess of the amount designated by a Participant in order to adjust for mistakes in the Company’s processing of properly completed Contribution elections; (iii) establish reasonable waiting and adjustment periods and/or accounting and crediting procedures to ensure that amounts applied toward the purchase of Common Stock for each Participant properly correspond with amounts withheld from the Participant’s Contributions; (iv) amend any outstanding Purchase Rights or clarify any ambiguities regarding the terms of any Offering to enable the Purchase Rights to qualify under and/or comply with Section 423 of the Code with respect to the 423 Component; and (v) establish other limitations or procedures as the Board determines in its sole discretion

6

advisable that are consistent with the Plan. The actions of the Board pursuant to this paragraph will not be considered to alter or impair any Purchase Rights granted under an Offering as they are part of the initial terms of each Offering and the Purchase Rights granted under each Offering.

13. TAX QUALIFICATION; TAX WITHHOLDING.

(a)  Although the Company may endeavor to (i) qualify a Purchase Right for special tax treatment under the laws of the United States or jurisdictions outside of the United States or (ii) avoid adverse tax treatment, the Company makes no representation to that effect and expressly disavows any covenant to maintain special or to avoid unfavorable tax treatment, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan. The Company is not limited in its corporate activities without regard to the potential negative tax impact on Participants.

(b) Each Participant will make arrangements, satisfactory to the Company and any applicable Related Corporation, to enable the Company or the Related Corporation to fulfill any withholding obligation for Tax-Related Items. Without limitation to the foregoing, in the Company’s sole discretion and subject to Applicable Law, such withholding obligation may be satisfied in whole or in part by (i) withholding from the Participant’s salary or any other cash amount due to the Participant from the Company or a Related Corporation; (ii) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, either through a voluntary sale or a mandatory sale arranged by the Company; or (iii) any other method deemed acceptable by the Board.

14. EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN.

The Plan will become effective immediately prior to and contingent upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of February 13, 2024, by and among the Company, ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, Aja Holdco, Inc., Aja Merger Sub 1, Adagio Medical, Inc., and Aja Merger Sub 2, Inc., provided this Plan is approved by the Company’s stockholders prior to such date.

15. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

(a)  Proceeds from the sale of shares of Common Stock pursuant to Purchase Rights will constitute general funds of the Company.

(b) A Participant will not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, shares of Common Stock subject to Purchase Rights unless and until the Participant’s shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of Purchase Rights are recorded in the books of the Company (or its transfer agent).

(c) The Plan and Offering do not constitute an employment contract. Nothing in the Plan or in the Offering will in any way alter the at will nature of a Participant’s employment, if applicable, or be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on the part of any Participant to continue in the employ of the Company or a Related Corporation, or on the part of the Company or a Related Corporation to continue the employment of a Participant.

(d) The provisions of the Plan will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without resort to that state’s conflicts of laws rules.

(e) If any particular provision of the Plan is found to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable, such provision will not affect the other provisions of the Plan, but the Plan will be construed in all respects as if such invalid provision were omitted.

(f) If any provision of the Plan does not comply with Applicable Law, such provision shall be amended and construed in such a manner as to comply with Applicable Law.

(g) The Company may deliver any forms relating to participation by electronic means and request a Participant’s forms by electronic means. Upon enrollment, the Participant consents to receive documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through any on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company.

RECITALS

A.          Indemnitee’s service to the Company substantially benefits the Company.

B.          Individuals are reluctant to serve as directors or officers of corporations or in certain other capacities unless they are provided with adequate protection through insurance or indemnification against the risks of claims and actions against them arising out of such service.

C.          Indemnitee does not regard the protection currently provided by applicable law, the Company’s governing documents and any insurance as adequate under the present circumstances, and Indemnitee may not be willing to serve as a director or officer without additional protection.

D.          In order to induce Indemnitee to continue to provide services to the Company, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company to contractually obligate itself to indemnify, and to advance expenses on behalf of, Indemnitee as permitted by applicable law.

E.          This Agreement shall supersede any prior indemnification agreement between the Company (or any subsidiary of the Company) and the Indemnitee, which is hereby terminated.

F.          This Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the indemnification provided in the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws, and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto, and this Agreement shall not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor shall this Agreement be deemed to limit, diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder.

The parties therefore agree as follows:

(iii)          Corporate Transactions. The effective date of a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other entity, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than 50% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation and with the power to elect at least a majority of the board of directors or other governing body of such surviving entity;

No indemnification for Expenses shall be made under this Section 3 in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to be liable to the Company, unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court of Chancery or any court in which the Proceeding was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification for such expenses as the Delaware Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

(b)          for an accounting or disgorgement of profits pursuant to Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or similar provisions of federal, state or local statutory law or common law, if Indemnitee is held liable therefor (including pursuant to any settlement arrangements);

(c)          for any reimbursement of the Company by Indemnitee of any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation or of any profits realized by Indemnitee from the sale of securities of the Company, as required in each case under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (including any such reimbursements that arise from an accounting restatement of the Company pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) or under the Company’s clawback policy under Rule 10D-1 under the Exchange Act and Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, or the payment to the Company of profits arising from the purchase and sale by Indemnitee of securities in violation of Section 306 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act), if Indemnitee is held liable therefore (including pursuant to any settlement arrangements);

(d)          initiated by Indemnitee, including any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee against the Company or its directors, officers, employees, agents or other indemnitees, unless (i) the Company’s board of directors authorized the Proceeding (or the relevant part of the Proceeding) prior to its initiation, (ii) the Company provides the indemnification, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the Company under applicable law, (iii) otherwise authorized in Section 12(d) or (iv) otherwise required by applicable law; or

(e)          if prohibited by applicable law.

8.          Advances of Expenses. The Company shall advance the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding prior to its final disposition, and such advancement shall be made as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event no later than 60 days, after the receipt by the Company of a written statement or statements requesting such advances from time to time (which shall include invoices received by Indemnitee in connection with such Expenses but, in the case of invoices in connection with legal services, any references to legal work performed or to expenditure made that would cause Indemnitee to waive any privilege accorded by applicable law shall not be included with the invoice). Advances shall be unsecured and interest free and made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay such advances. Indemnitee hereby undertakes to repay any advance to the extent that it is ultimately determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. This Section 8 shall not apply to the extent advancement is prohibited by law and shall not apply to any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) for which indemnity is not permitted under this Agreement, but shall apply to any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) referenced in Section 7(b) or 7(c) prior to a determination that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company.

9.          Procedures for Notification and Defense of Claim.

(a)          Indemnitee shall notify the Company in writing of any matter with respect to which Indemnitee intends to seek indemnification or advancement of Expenses as soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt by Indemnitee of notice thereof. The written notification to the Company shall include, in reasonable detail, a description of the nature of the Proceeding and the facts underlying the Proceeding. The failure by Indemnitee to notify the Company will not relieve the Company from any liability which it may have to Indemnitee hereunder or otherwise than under this Agreement, and any delay in so notifying the Company shall not constitute a waiver by Indemnitee of any rights, except to the extent that such failure or delay materially prejudices the Company.

(b)          If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a Proceeding pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company has directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in effect that may be applicable to the Proceeding, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of the Proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable policies. The Company shall thereafter take all commercially-reasonable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such Proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies.

(c)          In the event the Company may be obligated to make any indemnity in connection with a Proceeding, the Company shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Proceeding with counsel approved by Indemnitee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, upon the delivery to Indemnitee of written notice of its election to do so. After delivery of such notice, approval of such counsel by Indemnitee and the retention of such counsel by the Company, the Company will not be liable to Indemnitee for any fees or expenses of counsel subsequently incurred by Indemnitee with respect to the same Proceeding. Notwithstanding the Company’s assumption of the defense of any such Proceeding, the Company shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of Indemnitee’s separate counsel to the extent (i) the employment of separate counsel by Indemnitee is authorized by the Company, (ii) counsel for the Company or Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there is a conflict of interest between the Company and Indemnitee in the conduct of any such defense such that Indemnitee needs to be separately represented, (iii) the Company is not financially or legally able to perform its indemnification obligations or (iv) the Company shall not have retained, or shall not continue to retain, counsel to defend such Proceeding. The Company shall have the right to conduct such defense as it sees fit in its sole discretion. Regardless of any provision in this Agreement, Indemnitee shall have the right to employ counsel in any Proceeding at Indemnitee’s personal expense. The Company shall not be entitled, without the consent of Indemnitee, to assume the defense of any claim brought by or in the right of the Company.

(d)          Indemnitee shall give the Company such information and cooperation in connection with the Proceeding as may be reasonably appropriate.

(e)          The Company shall not be liable to indemnify Indemnitee for any settlement of any Proceeding (or any part thereof) without the Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(f)          The Company shall not settle any Proceeding (or any part thereof) in a manner that imposes any Expense, penalty or liability on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

10.          Procedures upon Application for Indemnification.

(a)          To obtain indemnification, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and as is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification following the final disposition of the Proceeding. Any delay in providing the request will not relieve the Company from its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent such failure is prejudicial.

(b)          Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to Section 10(a), a determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto shall be made in the specific case (i) if a Change in Control shall have occurred, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Company’s board of directors, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee or (ii) if a Change in Control shall not have occurred, (A) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Company’s board of directors, (B) by a committee of Disinterested Directors designated by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Company’s board of directors, (C) if there are no such Disinterested Directors or, if such Disinterested Directors so direct, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Company’s board of directors, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee or (D) if so directed by the Company’s board of directors, by the stockholders of the Company. If it is determined that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, payment to Indemnitee shall be made within ten days after such determination. Indemnitee shall cooperate with the person, persons or entity making the determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information that is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and that is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

(c)          In the event the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 10(b), the Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 10(c). If a Change in Control shall not have occurred, the Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Company’s board of directors, and the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising him or her of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. If a Change in Control shall have occurred, the Independent Counsel shall be selected by Indemnitee (unless Indemnitee shall request that such selection be made by the Company’s board of directors, in which event the preceding sentence shall apply), and Indemnitee shall give written notice to the Company advising it of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. In either event, Indemnitee or the Company, as the case may be, may, within ten days after such written notice of selection shall have been given, deliver to the Company or to Indemnitee, as the case may be, a written objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 1 of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If such written objection is so made and substantiated, the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court has determined that such objection is without merit. If, within 20 days after the later of (i) submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 10(a) hereof and (ii) the final disposition of the Proceeding, the parties have not agreed upon an Independent Counsel, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for resolution of any objection which shall have been made by the Company or Indemnitee to the other’s selection of Independent Counsel and for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by the court or by such other person as the court shall designate, and the person with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 10(b) hereof. Upon the due commencement of any judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement, the Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further responsibility in such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing).

(d)          The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of any Independent Counsel.

11.          Presumptions and Effect of Certain Proceedings.

(a)          In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person, persons or entity making such determination shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, and the Company shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption.

(b)          The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

(c)          For purposes of any determination of good faith, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith to the extent Indemnitee relied in good faith on (i) the records or books of account of the Enterprise, including financial statements, (ii) information supplied to Indemnitee by the officers of the Enterprise in the course of their duties, (iii) the advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise or its board of directors or counsel selected by any committee of the board of directors or (iv) information or records given or reports made to the enterprise by an independent certified public accountant, an appraiser, investment banker or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Enterprise or its board of directors or any committee of the board of directors. The provisions of this Section 11(c) shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the other circumstances in which Indemnitee may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Agreement.

(d)          Neither the knowledge, actions nor failure to act of any other director, officer, agent or employee of the Enterprise shall be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under this Agreement.

12.          Remedies of Indemnitee.

(a)          Subject to Section 12(e), in the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 8 or 12(d) of this Agreement, (iii) no determination of entitlement to indemnification shall have been made pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement within 90 days after the later of the receipt by the Company of the request for indemnification or the final disposition of the Proceeding, (iv) payment of indemnification pursuant to this Agreement is not made (A) within ten days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or (B) with respect to indemnification pursuant to Sections 4, 5 and 12(d) of this Agreement, within 90 days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor, or (v) the Company or any other person or entity takes or threatens to take any action to declare this Agreement void or unenforceable, or institutes any litigation or other action or proceeding designed to deny, or to recover from, Indemnitee the benefits provided or intended to be provided to Indemnitee hereunder, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication by a court of competent jurisdiction of his or her entitlement to such indemnification or advancement of Expenses. Alternatively, Indemnitee, at his or her option, may seek an award in arbitration with respect to his or her entitlement to such indemnification or advancement of Expenses, to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Indemnitee shall commence such proceeding seeking an adjudication or an award in arbitration within 180 days following the date on which Indemnitee first has the right to commence such proceeding pursuant to this Section 12(a); provided, however, that the foregoing clause shall not apply in respect of a proceeding brought by Indemnitee to enforce his or her rights under Section 4 of this Agreement. The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication or award in arbitration in accordance with this Agreement.

(b)          Neither (i) the failure of the Company, its board of directors, any committee or subgroup of the board of directors, Independent Counsel or stockholders to have made a determination that indemnification of Indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor (ii) an actual determination by the Company, its board of directors, any committee or subgroup of the board of directors, Independent Counsel or stockholders that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that Indemnitee has or has not met the applicable standard of conduct. In the event that a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 12 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial, or arbitration, on the merits, and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse determination. In any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 12, the Company shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, have the burden of proving Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses, as the case may be.

(c)          To the fullest extent not prohibited by law, the Company shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 12 that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement. If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 12, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statements not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law.

(d)          To the extent not prohibited by law, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses that are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any action for indemnification or advancement of Expenses from the Company under this Agreement or under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company to the extent Indemnitee is successful in such action, and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall (as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event no later than 90 days, after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor) advance such Expenses to Indemnitee, subject to the provisions of Section 8.

(e)          Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no determination as to entitlement to indemnification shall be required to be made prior to the final disposition of the Proceeding.

13.          Contribution. To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, if the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is unavailable to Indemnitee, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amounts incurred by Indemnitee, whether for Expenses, judgments, fines or amounts paid or to be paid in settlement, in connection with any claim relating to an indemnifiable event under this Agreement, in such proportion as is deemed fair and reasonable in light of all of the circumstances of such Proceeding in order to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the Company and Indemnitee as a result of the events and transactions giving rise to such Proceeding; and (ii) the relative fault of Indemnitee and the Company (and its other directors, officers, employees and agents) in connection with such events and transactions.

14.          Non-exclusivity. The rights of indemnification and to receive advancement of Expenses as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws, any agreement, a vote of stockholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise. To the extent that a change in Delaware law, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification or advancement of Expenses than would be afforded currently under the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws and this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change, subject to the restrictions expressly set forth herein or therein. Except as expressly set forth herein, no right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Except as expressly set forth herein, the assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy.

15.          No Duplication of Payments. The Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder (or for which advancement is provided hereunder) if and to the extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received payment for such amounts under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.

16.          Insurance. To the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, trustees, general partners, managing members, officers, employees, agents or fiduciaries of the Company or any other Enterprise, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies to the same extent as the most favorably-insured persons under such policy or policies in a comparable position.

17.          Subrogation. In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights.

18.          Services to the Company. Indemnitee agrees to serve as a director or officer of the Company or, at the request of the Company, as a director, trustee, general partner, managing member, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of another Enterprise, for so long as Indemnitee is duly elected or appointed or until Indemnitee tenders his or her resignation or is removed from such position. Indemnitee may at any time and for any reason resign from such position (subject to any other contractual obligation or any obligation imposed by operation of law), in which event the Company shall have no obligation under this Agreement to continue Indemnitee in such position. This Agreement shall not be deemed an employment contract between the Company (or any of its subsidiaries or any Enterprise) and Indemnitee. Indemnitee specifically acknowledges that any employment with the Company (or any of its subsidiaries or any Enterprise) is at will, and Indemnitee may be discharged at any time for any reason, with or without cause, with or without notice, except as may be otherwise expressly provided in any executed, written employment contract between Indemnitee and the Company (or any of its subsidiaries or any Enterprise), any existing formal severance policies adopted by the Company’s board of directors or, with respect to service as a director or officer of the Company, the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws or the DGCL. No such document shall be subject to any oral modification thereof.

19.          Duration. This Agreement shall continue until and terminate upon the later of (a) ten years after the date that Indemnitee shall have ceased to serve as a director or officer of the Company or as a director, trustee, general partner, managing member, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of any other Enterprise, as applicable; or (b) one year after the final termination of any Proceeding, including any appeal, then pending in respect of which Indemnitee is granted rights of indemnification or advancement of Expenses hereunder and of any proceeding commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 12 of this Agreement relating thereto.

20.          Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns, including any direct or indirect successor, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company, and shall inure to the benefit of Indemnitee and Indemnitee’s heirs, executors and administrators. The Company shall require and cause any successor (whether direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company, by written agreement, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place.

21.          Severability. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to require or shall be construed as requiring the Company to do or fail to do any act in violation of applicable law. The Company’s inability, pursuant to court order or other applicable law, to perform its obligations under this Agreement shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement. If any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (i) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement (including without limitation, each portion of any section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law; (ii) such provision or provisions shall be deemed reformed to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law and to give the maximum effect to the intent of the parties hereto; and (iii) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of any section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested thereby.

22.          Enforcement. The Company expressly confirms and agrees that it has entered into this Agreement and assumed the obligations imposed on it hereby in order to induce Indemnitee to serve as a director or officer of the Company, and the Company acknowledges that Indemnitee is relying upon this Agreement in serving as a director or officer of the Company.

23.          Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral, written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, including any prior indemnification agreement(s) entered into between the Company (or any subsidiary of the Company) and the Indemnitee; provided, however, that this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws and applicable law.

24.          Modification and Waiver. No supplement, modification or amendment to this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the parties hereto. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement shall adversely affect any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in his or her Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall constitute or be deemed a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

25.          Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, sent by facsimile or electronic mail or otherwise delivered by hand, messenger or courier service addressed:

(a)          if to Indemnitee, to Indemnitee’s address, facsimile number or electronic mail address as shown on the signature page of this Agreement or in the Company’s records, as may be updated in accordance with the provisions hereof; or

Each such notice or other communication shall for all purposes of this Agreement be treated as effective or having been given (i) if delivered by hand, messenger or courier service, when delivered (or if sent via a nationally-recognized overnight courier service, freight prepaid, specifying next-business-day delivery, one business day after deposit with the courier), (ii) if sent via mail, at the earlier of its receipt or five days after the same has been deposited in a regularly-maintained receptacle for the deposit of the United States mail, addressed and mailed as aforesaid, or (iii) if sent via facsimile, upon confirmation of facsimile transfer or, if sent via electronic mail, upon confirmation of delivery when directed to the relevant electronic mail address, if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, or if not sent during normal business hours of the recipient, then on the recipient’s next business day.

26.          Applicable Law and Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement and the legal relations among the parties shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Except with respect to any arbitration commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement, the Company and Indemnitee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agree that any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be brought only in the Delaware Court of Chancery, and not in any other state or federal court in the United States of America or any court in any other country, (ii) consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery for purposes of any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, (iii) appoint, to the extent such party is not otherwise subject to service of process in the State of Delaware, Corporation Service Company, 251 Little Falls Drive, in the City of Wilmington, County of New Castle, Delaware 19808, as its agent in the State of Delaware as such party’s agent for acceptance of legal process in connection with any such action or proceeding against such party with the same legal force and validity as if served upon such party personally within the State of Delaware, (iv) waive any objection to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in the Delaware Court of Chancery, and (v) waive, and agree not to plead or to make, any claim that any such action or proceeding brought in the Delaware Court of Chancery has been brought in an improper or inconvenient forum.

27.          Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. This Agreement may also be executed and delivered by facsimile signature and in counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. Only one such counterpart signed by the party against whom enforceability is sought needs to be produced to evidence the existence of this Agreement.

28.          Captions. The headings of the paragraphs of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this Agreement or to affect the construction thereof.

(b)Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of this Guaranty, the Collateral Agent and each Buyer, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guaranty and the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the Bankruptcy Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal, provincial, state, or other applicable law to the extent applicable to this Guaranty and the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder.  To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Collateral Agent, the Buyers and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor under this Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

SECTION 3.Guaranty Absolute; Continuing Guaranty; Assignments.

(a)The Guarantors, jointly and severally, guaranty that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Note Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Collateral Agent or any Buyer with respect thereto.  The obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any Guarantor to enforce such obligations, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any Transaction Party or whether any Transaction Party is joined in any such action or actions.  The liability of any Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be as a primary obligor (and not merely as a surety) and shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the extent permitted by law, any defenses it may now or hereafter have in any way relating to, any or all of the following:

(i)any lack of validity or enforceability of any Transaction Document;

(ii)any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Transaction Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Transaction Party or extension of the maturity of any Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise;

(iii)any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any Collateral;

(iv) any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(v)any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate, limited liability company or partnership structure or existence of any Transaction Party;

(vi)any manner of application of Collateral or any other collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any Collateral or any other collateral for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any Transaction Party under the Note Documents or any other assets of any Transaction Party or any of its Subsidiaries;

(vii)any failure of the Collateral Agent or any Buyer to disclose to any Transaction Party any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Transaction Party now or hereafter known to the Collateral Agent or any Buyer (each Guarantor waiving any duty on the part of the Collateral Agent or any Buyer to disclose such information);

4

(viii)taking any action in furtherance of the release of any Guarantor or any other Person that is liable for the Obligations from all or any part of any liability arising under or in connection with any Transaction Document without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent; or

(ix)any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Collateral Agent or any Buyer that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Transaction Party or any other guarantor or surety other than the defense of Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(b)This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Collateral Agent, any Buyer, or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Transaction Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

(c)This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations and shall not terminate for any reason prior to the respective Maturity Date of each Note (other than Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations) and (ii) be binding upon each Guarantor and its respective successors and assigns.  This Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Collateral Agent, the Buyers, and their respective successors, and permitted pledgees, transferees and assigns.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the Collateral Agent or any Buyer may pledge, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under and subject to the terms of any Transaction Document to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to the Collateral Agent or such Buyer (as applicable) herein or otherwise, in each case as provided in the Securities Purchase Agreement or such Transaction Document.

SECTION 4.Waivers.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor hereby waives promptness, diligence, protest, notice of acceptance and any other notice or formality of any kind with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guaranty and any requirement that the Collateral Agent exhaust any right or take any action against any Transaction Party or any other Person or any Collateral.  Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated herein and that the waiver set forth in this Section is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.  The Guarantors hereby waive any right to revoke this Guaranty, and acknowledge that this Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future.  Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives (a) any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by the Collateral Agent or any Buyer that in any manner impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects the subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification rights of such Guarantor or other rights of such Guarantor to proceed against any of the other Transaction Parties, any other guarantor or any other Person or any Collateral, and (b) any defense based on any right of set-off or counterclaim against or in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor hereunder.  Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any duty on the part of the Collateral Agent or any Buyer to disclose to such Guarantor any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Transaction Party or any of its Subsidiaries now or hereafter known by the Collateral Agent or a Buyer.

5

SECTION 5.Subrogation.  No Guarantor may exercise any rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against any Transaction Party or any other guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of any Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Collateral Agent or any Buyer against any Transaction Party or any other guarantor or any Collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from any Transaction Party or any other guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security solely on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until there has been Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations.  If any amount shall be paid to a Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall forthwith be paid to the Collateral Agent to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Document, or to be held as Collateral for any Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts payable under this Guaranty thereafter arising.  If (a) any Guarantor shall make payment to the Collateral Agent of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and (b) there has been Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Collateral Agent will, at such Guarantor’s request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment by such Guarantor.

(c)No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent or any Buyer to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Transaction Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder or under any Transaction Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.  The rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent and the Buyers provided herein and in the other Transaction Documents are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law.  The rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent and the Buyers under any Transaction Document against any party thereto are not conditional or contingent on any attempt by the Collateral Agent or any Buyer to exercise any of their respective rights or remedies under any other Transaction Document against such party or against any other Person.

(d)Any provision of this Guaranty 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 portions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

11

(e)This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) and shall not terminate for any reason prior to the respective Maturity Date of each Note (other than Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations) and (ii) be binding upon each Guarantor and its respective successors and assigns.  This Guaranty shall inure, together with all rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Collateral Agent, the Buyers, and their respective successors, and permitted pledgees, transferees and assigns.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the Collateral Agent or any Buyer may pledge, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under and subject to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Document to any other Person in accordance with the terms thereof, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to the Collateral Agent or such Buyer (as applicable) herein or otherwise, in each case as provided in the Securities Purchase Agreement or such Transaction Document.  None of the rights or obligations of any Guarantor hereunder may be assigned or otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of each Buyer.

(f)For so long as any Notes remain outstanding, upon any entity (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) becoming a direct, or indirect, Subsidiary of the Company, the Company shall cause each such Subsidiary to become party to the Guaranty by executing a joinder to the Guaranty reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Required Holders.

(g)This Guaranty and the other Transaction Documents reflect the entire understanding of the transaction contemplated hereby and shall not be contradicted or qualified by any other agreement, oral or written, entered into before the date hereof.

(h)Section headings herein are included for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Guaranty for any other purpose.

SECTION 15.Currency Indemnity.

If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against Guarantor in any court in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this Section 15 referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due under this Guaranty in any currency (the “Obligation Currency”) other than the Judgment Currency, the conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day immediately preceding (a) the date of actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of courts of the jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date, or (b) the date on which the judgment is given, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the applicable date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Section 15 being hereinafter in this Section 15 referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

12

If, in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in the preceding paragraph, there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual receipt of the amount due in immediately available funds, the Guarantors shall pay such additional amount (if any, but in any event not a lesser amount) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount actually received in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of the Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date.  Any amount due from the Guarantors under this Section 15 shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of this Guaranty.

(h)          Intellectual Property.

(i)            If applicable, each Grantor shall duly execute and deliver the applicable Intellectual Property Security Agreement.  Each Grantor will, and will use  commercially reasonable efforts to cause its licensees to, maintain the Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business in full force and effect; provided, however, that no Grantor shall have an obligation to use or to maintain any Intellectual Property (A) that relates solely to any product or work, that is no longer necessary or material or has been, or is in the process of being, discontinued, abandoned or terminated in the ordinary course of business and consistent with the exercise of reasonable business judgment, (B) that is being replaced with Intellectual Property substantially similar to the Intellectual Property that may be abandoned or otherwise become invalid, so long as the failure to use or maintain such Intellectual Property does not materially adversely affect the validity of such replacement Intellectual Property and so long as such replacement Intellectual Property is subject to the Lien created by this Agreement and does not have a material adverse effect on the business of any Grantor or (C) that is substantially the same as other Intellectual Property that is in full force, so long the failure to use or maintain such Intellectual Property does not materially adversely affect the validity of such replacement Intellectual Property and so long as such other Intellectual Property is subject to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement and does not have a material adverse effect on the business of any Grantor.  Each Grantor will take commercially reasonable actions before the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or political subdivision thereof to maintain each registration of the Intellectual Property and application for registration of Intellectual Property that is owned by the Grantor and necessary for the conduct of its business (other than the Intellectual Property described in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence), including, without limitation, filing of renewals, affidavits of use, affidavits of incontestability and opposition, interference and cancellation proceedings and payment of maintenance fees, filing fees, taxes or other governmental charges or fees.  If any Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of the Grantor’s business (other than Intellectual Property described in the proviso to the second sentence of subsection (i) of this clause (h)) is infringed, misappropriated, diluted or otherwise violated in any material respect by a third party, each Grantor shall (x) upon learning of such infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation, promptly notify the Collateral Agent and (y) promptly take such actions as such Grantor shall deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property.  Each Grantor shall furnish to the Collateral Agent from time to time upon its reasonable request statements and schedules further identifying and describing any registrations or applications of Patent, Trademark or Copyright newly filed or acquired by the Grantor, following receipt by the Collateral Agent of any such statements or schedules, each Grantor shall modify this Agreement by amending Schedule II hereto, as the case may be, to include any Intellectual Property, as the case may be, which is or hereafter becomes part of the Collateral under this Agreement and shall execute and authenticate such documents and do such acts as shall be necessary or, in the reasonable judgment of the Collateral Agent, desirable to subject such Intellectual Property and Licenses to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, no Grantor may abandon, surrender or cancel or otherwise permit any material Intellectual Property to become abandoned, surrendered, cancelled or invalid without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent (in its sole and absolute discretion), and if any material Intellectual Property is infringed, misappropriated, diluted or otherwise violated in any material respect by a third party, each Grantor will take such reasonable action as the Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property.

21

(ii)          Upon request of the Collateral Agent, any Grantor shall execute, authenticate and deliver any and all assignments, agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to evidence the Collateral Agent’s security interest hereunder in any registrations or applications of Patents, Trademark or Copyright newly filed or acquired by the Grantor and the General Intangibles of any Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby, and each Grantor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact to execute and/or authenticate and file all such writings for the foregoing purposes, all acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed, and such power (being coupled with an interest) shall be irrevocable until all Obligations are fully performed and Paid in Full.

(i) [Reserved].

(j)          Pledged Accounts. Section 14(p) of the Notes is hereby incorporated by reference.

22

(k)          Control.  Each Grantor hereby agrees to take any or all action that may be reasonably necessary or that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order for the Collateral Agent to obtain “control” in accordance with Sections 9-105 through 9-107 of the Code with respect to the following Collateral:  (i) Electronic Chattel Paper, (ii) Investment Property, and (iii) Letter-of-Credit Rights, in each case, having a value in excess of $250,000.

(l)          Inspection and Reporting.  Each Grantor shall permit the Collateral Agent, or any agent or representatives thereof or such attorneys, accountant or other professionals or other Persons as the Collateral Agent may designate (at Grantors’ sole cost and expense), in each case (except during the continuation of an Event of Default) during normal business hours on reasonable notice to such Grantor and in a manner that will not unreasonably burden the business operations of any Grantor,  (i) to examine and make copies of and abstracts from any Grantor’s Records and books of account, (ii) to visit and inspect its properties, (iii) to verify materials, leases, Instruments, Accounts, Inventory and other assets of any Grantor from time to time, and (iv) to conduct audits, physical counts, appraisals, valuations and/or examinations at the locations of any Grantor.  Each Grantor shall also permit the Collateral Agent, or any agent or representatives thereof or such attorneys, accountants or other professionals or other Persons as the Collateral Agent may designate to discuss such Grantor’s affairs, finances and accounts with any of its directors, officers, attorneys, or independent accountants.

(m)          Future Subsidiaries.  If any Grantor hereafter creates or acquires any Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary), within thirty (30) days following the creation or acquisition of such Subsidiary, such Grantor shall (i) if such Subsidiary is a Domestic Subsidiary, cause such Subsidiary to become a party to this Agreement as an additional “Grantor” hereunder, (ii) deliver to the Collateral Agent updated Schedules to this Agreement, as appropriate (including, without limitation, an updated Schedule IV to reflect the grant by such Grantor of a Lien on and security interest in all Pledged Debt and Pledged Equity now or hereafter owned by such Grantor), (iii) if such Subsidiary is a Domestic Subsidiary, cause such Subsidiary to duly execute and deliver a guaranty of the Obligations in favor of the Collateral Agent in form and substance acceptable to the Collateral Agent, (iv) deliver to the Collateral Agent the stock certificates representing all of the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary, along with undated stock powers for each such certificates, executed in blank (or, if any such shares of Capital Stock are uncertificated, confirmation and evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent that the security interest in such uncertificated securities has been transferred to and perfected by the Collateral Agent, in accordance with Section 8-106 of the Code or any other similar or local or foreign law that may be applicable), and (v) duly execute and/or cause to be delivered to the Collateral Agent, in form and substance acceptable to the Collateral Agent, such opinions of counsel and other documents as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request with respect thereto; provided, however, that no Grantor shall be required to pledge any Excluded Collateral.  Each Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to attach such updated Schedules to this Agreement and agrees that all Pledged Equity and Pledged Debt listed on any updated Schedule delivered to the Collateral Agent shall for all purposes hereunder be considered Collateral. The Grantors agree that the pledge of the shares of Capital Stock acquired by a Grantor of a Foreign Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) may be supplemented by one or more separate pledge agreements, deeds of pledge, share charges, or other similar agreements or instruments, executed and delivered by the relevant Grantor in favor of the Collateral Agent, which pledge agreements will provide for the pledge of such shares of Capital Stock in accordance with the laws of the applicable foreign jurisdiction.  With respect to such shares of Capital Stock, the Collateral Agent may, at any time and from time to time, in its sole discretion, take actions in such foreign jurisdictions that will result in the perfection of the Lien created in such shares of Capital Stock.

23

(b)          Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact and proxy, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, in the Collateral Agent’s discretion, solely following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, (i) to obtain and adjust insurance required to be paid to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section hereof, (ii) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any Collateral, (iii) to receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other Instruments, Documents and Chattel Paper in connection with clause (i) or (ii) above, (iv) to file any claims or take any action or institute any action, suit or proceedings which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Collateral Agent and the Noteholders with respect to any Collateral, (v) to execute assignments, licenses and other documents to enforce the rights of the Collateral Agent and the Noteholders with respect to any Collateral, and (vi) to verify any and all information with respect to any and all Accounts.  This power is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until all of the Obligations are fully performed and Paid in Full.

24

(c)          For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies hereunder, at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable (but terminable in accordance with this clause (c)), non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Grantor) to use, assign, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property in which such Grantor now or hereafter has any right, title or interest, wherever the same may be located, including, without limitation, in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof, to the extent that such license is permissible under the Grantor’s agreements with third parties regarding such Intellectual Property and applicable law; provided that (i) such license may be exercised, at the option of the Collateral Agent, only when an Event of Default exists and is continuing, and (ii) any license or sublicense granted by the Collateral Agent to a third party with respect to such Intellectual Property shall include reasonable and customary terms and conditions necessary to preserve the existence, validity and value of the affected Intellectual Property, including provisions requiring the continuing confidential handling of trade secrets, provisions requiring the use of appropriate notices and prohibiting the use of false notices, quality control and inurement provisions with regard to Trademarks, patent designation provisions with regard to Patents, copyright notices and restrictions on decompilation and reverse engineering of copyrighted software.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, but subject to the provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement that limit the right of any Grantor to dispose of its property, and Section and Section hereof, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any Grantor may exploit, use, enjoy, protect, license, sublicense, assign, sell, dispose of or take other actions with respect to the Intellectual Property in the ordinary course of its business and as otherwise expressly permitted by any of the other Transaction Documents.  In furtherance of the foregoing, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall from time to time, upon the request of any Grantor, execute and deliver any instruments, certificates or other documents, in the form so requested, which such Grantor shall have certified are appropriate (in such Grantor’s judgment) to allow it to take any action permitted above (including relinquishment of the license provided pursuant to this clause (c) as to any Intellectual Property).  Further, upon the full performance and Payment in Full of all of the Obligations, the Collateral Agent (subject to Section hereof) shall release and reassign to any Grantor all of the Collateral Agent’s right, title and interest in and to the Intellectual Property, and the Licenses, all without recourse, representation or warranty whatsoever.  The exercise of rights and remedies hereunder by the Collateral Agent shall not terminate the rights of the holders of any licenses or sublicenses theretofore granted by each Grantor in accordance with the second sentence of this clause (c).  Each Grantor hereby releases the Collateral Agent from any claims, causes of action and demands at any time arising out of or with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Collateral Agent under the powers of attorney granted herein other than actions taken or omitted to be taken through the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction no longer subject to appeal.

(d)          If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement or obligation contained herein beyond the expiration of any applicable cure period, the Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement or obligation, in the name of such Grantor or the Collateral Agent, and the expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Grantor pursuant to Section 9 hereof and such obligation shall be secured by the Collateral.

(e)          The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers.  Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral.

25

(f)          Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding (i) each Grantor shall remain liable under the Licenses and otherwise with respect to any of the Collateral to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (ii) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of its rights or remedies hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of its obligations under the Licenses or otherwise in respect of the Collateral, and (iii) the Collateral Agent shall not have any obligation or liability by reason of this Agreement under the Licenses or with respect to any of the other Collateral, nor shall the Collateral Agent be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Grantor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder

SECTION 8.        Remedies Upon Event of Default; Application of Proceeds.  If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(a)          The Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to any other rights and remedies provided for herein, in any other Transaction Document or otherwise available to it, all of the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the Code (whether or not the Code applies to the affected Collateral), and also may (i) take absolute control of the Collateral, including, without limitation, transfer into the Collateral Agent’s name or into the name of its nominee or nominees (to the extent the Collateral Agent has not theretofore done so) and thereafter receive, for the ratable benefit of itself and the Noteholders, all payments made thereon, give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect thereof and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof, (ii) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of the Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of its respective Collateral as directed by the Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place or places to be designated by the Collateral Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties, and the Collateral Agent may enter into and occupy any premises owned or leased by any Grantor where the Collateral or any part thereof is located or assembled for a reasonable period in order to effectuate the Collateral Agent’s rights and remedies hereunder or under law, without obligation to any Grantor in respect of such occupation, and (iii) without notice except as specified below and without any obligation to prepare or process the Collateral for sale, (A) sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale (including, without limitation, by credit bid), at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable and/or (B) lease, license or dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof upon such terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable.  Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or any other disposition of its respective Collateral shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days’ notice to any Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of its respective Collateral is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification.  The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition of any Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given.  The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.  Each Grantor hereby waives any claims against the Collateral Agent and the Noteholders arising by reason of the fact that the price at which its respective Collateral may have been sold at a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Obligations, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree, and waives all rights that any Grantor may have to require that all or any part of such Collateral be marshaled upon any sale (public or private) thereof.  Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that (i) any such sale of its respective Collateral by the Collateral Agent shall be made without warranty, (ii) the Collateral Agent may specifically disclaim any warranties of title, possession, quiet enjoyment or the like, and (iii) such actions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above shall not adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any such sale of Collateral. In addition to the foregoing, (1) upon written notice to any Grantor from the Collateral Agent after and during the continuance of an Event of Default, such Grantor shall cease any use of the Intellectual Property including in the Collateral for any purpose described in such notice; (2) the Collateral Agent may, at any time and from time to time after and during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon ten (10) days’ prior notice to such Grantor, license, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or a non-exclusive basis, any of the Intellectual Property, throughout the universe for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Collateral Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and (3) the Collateral Agent may, at any time, pursuant to the authority granted in Section 7 hereof or otherwise (such authority being effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), execute and deliver on behalf of such Grantor, one or more instruments of assignment of the Intellectual Property (or any application or registration thereof), in form suitable for filing, recording or registration in any country.

26

(b)          Any cash held by the Collateral Agent as Collateral and all Cash Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale or disposition of or collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied as follows (subject to the provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement): first, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to the Collateral Agent (including, without limitation, those described in Section 9 hereof); second, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to the Noteholders, on a pro rata basis; third to pay interest due under the Notes owing to the Noteholders, on a pro rata basis; fourth, to pay or prepay principal in respect of the Notes, whether or not then due, owing to the Noteholders, on a pro rata basis; fifth, to pay or prepay any other Obligations, whether or not then due, in such order and manner as the Collateral Agent shall elect, consistent with the provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement.  Any surplus of such cash or Cash Proceeds held by the Collateral Agent and remaining after the full performance and Payment in Full of all of the Obligations shall be paid over to whomsoever shall be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.

(c)          In the event that the proceeds of any such sale, disposition, collection or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Collateral Agent and the Noteholders are legally entitled, each Grantor shall be, jointly and severally, liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the highest rate specified in the Notes for interest on overdue principal thereof or such other rate as shall be fixed by applicable law, together with the costs of collection and the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, costs, expenses and other charges of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent to collect such deficiency.

(d)          To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is commercially reasonable for the Collateral Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses deemed significant by the Collateral Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to transform raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as any Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Collateral Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Collateral Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent, to obtain the services of brokers, investment bankers, consultants, attorneys and other professionals to assist the Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral.  Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this section is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent would be commercially reasonable in the Collateral Agent’s exercise of rights and remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this section.  Without limitation of the foregoing, nothing contained in this section shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on the Collateral Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this section.

(e)          The Collateral Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including, but not limited to, this Agreement and the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of the Collateral Agent’s rights and remedies hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies, however existing or arising.  To the extent that any Grantor lawfully may, each Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights and remedies under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

28

SECTION 9.           Indemnity and Expenses. Section 9(k) and Section 4(v) of the Securities Purchase Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference herein, mutatis mutandis.

SECTION 10.        Notices, Etc.  All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and shall be mailed (by certified mail, first-class postage prepaid and return receipt requested), telecopied, e-mailed or delivered, if to any Grantor, to the Company’s address, or if to the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder, to it at its respective address, each as set forth in Section 9(f) of the Securities Purchase Agreement; or as to any such Person, at such other address as shall be designated by such Person in a written notice to all other parties hereto complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 10.  All such notices and other communications shall be effective (a) if sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, when received or five Business Days after deposited in the mails, whichever occurs first, (b) if telecopied or e-mailed, when transmitted (during normal business hours) and confirmation is received, and otherwise, the day after the notice or communication was transmitted and confirmation is received, or (c) if delivered in person, upon delivery.  For the avoidance of doubt, all Foreign Subsidiaries, as Grantors, hereby appoint the Company as its agent for receipt of service of process and all notices and other communications in the United States at the address specified below.

(b)          No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right or remedy hereunder or under any of the other Transaction Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.  The rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder provided herein and in the other Transaction Documents are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law.  The rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent or any Noteholder under any of the other Transaction Documents against any party thereto are not conditional or contingent on any attempt by such Person to exercise any of its rights or remedies under any of the other Transaction Documents against such party or against any other Person, including but not limited to, any Grantor.

 

29

(c)          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 portions hereof or thereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

(d)          This Agreement shall create a continuing Lien on and security interest in the Collateral and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until the Payment in Full of the Obligations, and (ii) be binding on each Grantor and all other Persons who become bound as debtor to this Agreement in accordance with Section 9-203(d) of the Code and shall inure, together with all rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent and the Noteholders hereunder, to the ratable benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Noteholders and their respective permitted successors, transferees and assigns.  Without limiting the generality of clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, without notice to any Grantor, solely in connection with a transfer of the Notes permitted by the Transaction Documents, the Collateral Agent and the Noteholders may assign or otherwise transfer their rights and obligations under this Agreement and any of the other Transaction Documents, to any other Person and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all of the benefits in respect thereof granted to the Collateral Agent and the Noteholders herein or otherwise.  Upon any such assignment or transfer, all references in this Agreement to the Collateral Agent or any such Noteholder shall mean the assignee of the Collateral Agent or such Noteholder.  None of the rights or obligations of any Grantor hereunder may be assigned, delegated or otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent in its sole and absolute discretion, and any such assignment, delegation or transfer without such consent of the Collateral Agent shall be null and void.

(e)          Upon the Payment in Full of the Obligations, (i) this Agreement and the security interests created hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the respective Grantor that granted such security interests hereunder, and (ii) the Collateral Agent will, upon any Grantor’s request and at such Grantor’s expense, (A) return to such Grantor such of the Collateral as shall not have been sold or otherwise disposed of or applied pursuant to the terms hereof and (B) execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination, all without any representation, warranty or recourse whatsoever.

30

(ii)           Each Grantor hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or under any of the other Transaction Documents or with any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim, defense or objection that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper.  Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under Section 9(f) of the Securities Purchase Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude the Collateral Agent or the Noteholders from bringing suit or taking other legal action against any Grantor in any other jurisdiction to collect on a Grantor’s obligations or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of the Collateral Agent or a Noteholder.

(iii)         WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL, ETC.

(ii)          the Trademark and service mark registrations and applications set forth in Schedule B hereto (provided that no security interest shall be granted in United States intent-to-use trademark applications to the extent that, and solely during the period in which, the grant, attachment or perfection of a security interest therein would impair the validity or enforceability of such intent-to-use trademark applications or any registrations resulting therefrom under applicable federal law), together with the goodwill symbolized thereby;

(iii)           all Copyrights, including without limitation the copyright registrations and applications and exclusive copyright licenses set forth in Schedule C hereto;

provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the term “Collateral” as used herein shall not include any Excluded Collateral.

SECTION 2.  Security for Obligations.  The grant of a Lien on and security interest in, the Collateral by each Grantor under this IP Security Agreement constitutes continuing collateral security for the payment and performance of all Obligations of such Grantor now or hereafter existing under or in respect of the Notes and the Note Documents, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, reimbursement obligations, interest, premiums, penalties, fees, indemnifications, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise.

(d)          Sufficient Number of Shares Registered.  In the event the number of shares available under any Registration Statement is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities required to be covered by such Registration Statement or an Investor’s allocated portion of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2(h), the Company shall amend such Registration Statement (if permissible), or file with the SEC a new Registration Statement (on the short form available therefor, if applicable), or both, so as to cover at least the Required Registration Amount as of the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the filing of such amendment or new Registration Statement, in each case, as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than fifteen (15) days after the necessity therefor arises (but taking account of any Staff position with respect to the date on which the Staff will permit such amendment to the Registration Statement and/or such new Registration Statement (as the case may be) to be filed with the SEC).  The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such amendment to such Registration Statement and/or such new Registration Statement (as the case may be) to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof with the SEC, but in no event later than the applicable Effectiveness Deadline for such Registration Statement.  For purposes of the foregoing provision, the number of shares available under a Registration Statement shall be deemed “insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities” if at any time the number of shares of Common Stock available for resale under the applicable Registration Statement is less than the product determined by multiplying (i) the Required Registration Amount as of such time by (ii) 0.90.  The calculation set forth in the foregoing sentence shall be made without regard to any limitations on conversion, amortization and/or redemption of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants (and such calculation shall assume (A) that the Notes are then convertible in full into shares of Common Stock at the then prevailing Conversion Rate (as defined in the Notes), (B) the initial outstanding principal amount of the Notes remains outstanding through the scheduled Maturity Date (as defined in the Notes) and no redemptions of the Notes occur prior to the scheduled Maturity Date and (C) the Warrants are then exercisable in full into shares of Common Stock at the then prevailing Exercise Price (as defined in the Warrants)).

(e)          Effect of Failure to File and Obtain and Maintain Effectiveness of any Registration Statement.  If (i) a Registration Statement covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities required to be covered thereby (disregarding any reduction pursuant to Section 2(f)) and required to be filed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement is (A) not filed with the SEC on or before the Filing Deadline for such Registration Statement (a “Filing Failure”) (it being understood that if the Company files a Registration Statement without affording each Investor and Legal Counsel the opportunity to review and comment on the same as required by Section 3(c) hereof, the Company shall be deemed to not have satisfied this clause (i)(A) and such event shall be deemed to be a Filing Failure) or (B) not declared effective by the SEC on or before the Effectiveness Deadline for such Registration Statement (an “Effectiveness Failure”) (it being understood that if on the Business Day immediately following the Effective Date for such Registration Statement the Company shall not have filed a “final” prospectus for such Registration Statement with the SEC under Rule 424(b) in accordance with Section 3(b) (whether or not such a prospectus is technically required by such rule), the Company shall be deemed to not have satisfied this clause (i)(B) and such event shall be deemed to be an Effectiveness Failure), (ii) other than during an Allowable Grace Period (as defined below), on any day after the Effective Date of a Registration Statement sales of all of the Registrable Securities required to be included on such Registration Statement (disregarding any reduction pursuant to Section 2(f)) cannot be made pursuant to such Registration Statement (including, without limitation, because of a failure to keep such Registration Statement effective, a failure to disclose such information as is necessary for sales to be made pursuant to such Registration Statement, a suspension or delisting of (or a failure to timely list) the shares of Common Stock on the Principal Market (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) or any other limitations imposed by the Principal Market, or a failure to register a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock or by reason of a stop order) or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use for any reason (a “Maintenance Failure”), or (iii) if a Registration Statement is not effective for any reason or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use for any reason, and either (x) the Company fails for any reason to satisfy the requirements of Rule 144(c)(1), including, without limitation, the failure to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144(c) or (y) the Company has ever been an issuer described in Rule 144(i)(1)(i) or becomes such an issuer in the future, and the Company shall fail to satisfy any condition set forth in Rule 144(i)(2) (a “Current Public Information Failure”) as a result of which any of the Investors are unable to sell Registrable Securities without restriction under Rule 144 (including, without limitation, volume restrictions), then, as partial relief for the damages to any holder by reason of any such delay in, or reduction of, its ability to sell the underlying shares of Common Stock (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available at law or in equity, including, without limitation, specific performance), the Company shall pay to each holder of Registrable Securities relating to such Registration Statement an amount in cash equal to one percent (1%) of such Investor’s original principal amount stated in such Investor’s Note on the Closing Date (1) on the date of such Filing Failure, Effectiveness Failure, Maintenance Failure or Current Public Information Failure, as applicable, and (2) on every thirty (30) day anniversary of (I) a Filing Failure until such Filing Failure is cured; (II) an Effectiveness Failure until such Effectiveness Failure is cured; (III) a Maintenance Failure until such Maintenance Failure is cured; and (IV) a Current Public Information Failure until the earlier of (i) the date such Current Public Information Failure is cured and (ii) such time that such public information is no longer required pursuant to Rule 144 (in each case, pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty (30) days).  The payments to which a holder of Registrable Securities shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 2(e) are referred to herein as “Registration Delay Payments.”  Following the initial Registration Delay Payment for any particular event or failure (which shall be paid on the date of such event or failure, as set forth above), without limiting the foregoing, if an event or failure giving rise to the Registration Delay Payments is cured prior to any thirty (30) day anniversary of such event or failure, then such Registration Delay Payment shall be made on the third (3^rd) Business Day after such cure.  In the event the Company fails to make Registration Delay Payments in a timely manner in accordance with the foregoing, such Registration Delay Payments shall bear interest at the rate of one percent (1%) per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Registration Delay Payments shall be owed to an Investor (other than with respect to a Maintenance Failure resulting from a suspension or delisting of (or a failure to timely list) the shares of Common Stock on the Principal Market) with respect to any period during which all of such Investor’s Registrable Securities may be sold by such Investor without restriction under Rule 144 (including, without limitation, volume restrictions) and without the need for current public information required by Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable).

5

(f)           Offering.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, but subject to the payment of the Registration Delay Payments pursuant to Section 2(e), in the event the staff of the SEC (the “Staff”) or the SEC seeks to characterize any offering pursuant to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement as constituting an offering of securities by, or on behalf of, the Company, or in any other manner, such that the Staff or the SEC do not permit such Registration Statement to become effective and used for resales in a manner that does not constitute such an offering and that permits the continuous resale at the market by the Investors participating therein (or as otherwise may be acceptable to each Investor) without being named therein as an “underwriter,” then the Company shall reduce the number of shares to be included in such Registration Statement by all Investors until such time as the Staff and the SEC shall so permit such Registration Statement to become effective as aforesaid.  In making such reduction, the Company shall reduce the number of shares to be included by all Investors on a pro rata basis (based upon the number of Registrable Securities otherwise required to be included for each Investor) unless the inclusion of shares by a particular Investor or a particular set of Investors are resulting in the Staff or the SEC’s “by or on behalf of the Company” offering position, in which event the shares held by such Investor or set of Investors shall be the only shares subject to reduction (and if by a set of Investors on a pro rata basis by such Investors or on such other basis as would result in the exclusion of the least number of shares by all such Investors); provided, that, with respect to such pro rata portion allocated to any Investor, such Investor may elect the allocation of such pro rata portion among the Registrable Securities of such Investor.  In addition, in the event that the Staff or the SEC requires any Investor seeking to sell securities under a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement to be specifically identified as an “underwriter” in order to permit such Registration Statement to become effective, and such Investor does not consent to being so named as an underwriter in such Registration Statement, then, in each such case, the Company shall reduce the total number of Registrable Securities to be registered on behalf of such Investor, until such time as the Staff or the SEC does not require such identification or until such Investor accepts such identification and the manner thereof.  Any reduction pursuant to this paragraph will first reduce all Registrable Securities other than those issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement. In the event of any reduction in Registrable Securities pursuant to this paragraph, an affected Investor shall have the right to require, upon delivery of a written request to the Company signed by such Investor, the Company to file a registration statement within twenty (20) days of such request (subject to any restrictions imposed by Rule 415 or required by the Staff or the SEC) for resale by such Investor in a manner acceptable to such Investor, and the Company shall following such request cause to be and keep effective such registration statement in the same manner as otherwise contemplated in this Agreement for registration statements hereunder, in each case until such time as: (i) all Registrable Securities held by such Investor have been registered and sold pursuant to an effective Registration Statement in a manner acceptable to such Investor or (ii) all Registrable Securities may be resold by such Investor without restriction (including, without limitation, volume limitations) pursuant to Rule 144 (taking account of any Staff position with respect to “affiliate” status) and without the need for current public information required by Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) or (iii) such Investor agrees to be named as an underwriter in any such Registration Statement in a manner acceptable to such Investor as to all Registrable Securities held by such Investor and that have not theretofore been included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement (it being understood that the special demand right under this sentence may be exercised by an Investor multiple times and with respect to limited amounts of Registrable Securities in order to permit the resale thereof by such Investor as contemplated above).

(g)           Piggyback Registrations.

i)          Piggyback Rights. Without limiting any obligation of the Company hereunder or under the Securities Purchase Agreement, if there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement or offering statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its equity securities (other than a registration statement (i) solely registering the resale and/or issuance of securities of employees, officers and/or directors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to an employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or rights offering to all, or substantially all, of the Company’s existing stockholders, (iii) filed on Form S-4 (as promulgated under the 1933 Act) related to any merger, acquisition or business combination or (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, then the Company shall deliver to each Investor a written notice of such determination and, if within seven (7) days after the date of the delivery of such notice, any such Investor shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement or offering statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities such Investor requests to be registered; provided, however, the Company shall not be required to register any Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2(g) that are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 without restriction (including, without limitation, volume restrictions) and without the need for current public information required by Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) or that are the subject of a then-effective Registration Statement.

7

ii)        Reduction of Piggyback Registration. If the managing underwriter(s) in an underwritten registration that is to be a piggyback registration pursuant to this Section 2(g), in good faith, advises the Company, the Investors participating in the piggyback registration and the holders of shares of Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, that are requesting such securities to be sold pursuant to the piggback registration rights under the Investor Rights Agreement, if any (the "IRA Investors" and such securities, the "IRA Registrable Securities"), in writing, that the dollar amount or number of shares of Common Stock that the Company desires to sell, taken together with (i) Registrable Securities, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to Section 2(g) hereof, (ii) IRA Registrable Securities, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to subsection 2.2.1 of the Investor Rights Agreement, (iii) the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which registration has been demanded pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with persons or entities other than the Investors and the IRA Investors,  and (iv) the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other stockholders of the Company, 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 “Maximum Number of Securities”), then:

1)           If the registration is undertaken for the Company’s account, the Company shall include in any such registration (A) first, Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, that the Company 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 IRA Registrable Securities of IRA Investors exercising their rights to register their IRA Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.2.1 of the Investor Rights Agreement and the Registrable Securities of the Investors exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2(g) hereof, pro rata based on the respective number of IRA Registrable Securities and Registrable Securities that each IRA Investor and each Investor has requested be included in such registration and the aggregate number of IRA Registrable Securities and Registrable Securities that the IRA Investors and the Investors have requested be included in such registration, 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), Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, for the account of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons or entities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities;

2)           If the registration is undertaken pursuant to a request by the IRA Investors, the Company shall include in any such registration (A) first, Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, that the IRA Investors desire 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 the Investors exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2(g) hereof, pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Investor has requested be included in such registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Investors have requested be included in such registration, 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), Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, for the account of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons or entities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and

8

3)           If the registration is pursuant to a request by persons or entities other than the IRA Investors and the Investors, then the Company shall include in any such registration (A) first, Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, of such requesting persons or entities, other than the Investors and the IRA Investors, 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 IRA Registrable Securities of the IRA Investors exercising their rights to register their IRA Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.2.1 of the Investor Rights Agreement and the Registrable Securities of the Investors exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2(g) hereof, pro rata based on the respective number of IRA Registrable Securities and Registrable Securities that each IRA Investor and each Investor has requested, 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), Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, 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), Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, for the account of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons or entities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

(h)          Allocation of Registrable Securities.  The initial number of Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement other than a piggyback registration pursuant to Section 2(g) hereof (the allocations of which shall be made pursuant to Section 2(g)(ii)) and any increase in the number of Registrable Securities included therein shall be allocated pro rata among the Investors based on the number of Registrable Securities held by each Investor at the time such Registration Statement covering such initial number of Registrable Securities or increase thereof is declared effective by the SEC.  In the event that an Investor sells or otherwise transfers any of such Investor’s Registrable Securities, each transferee or assignee (as the case may be) that becomes an Investor shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the then-remaining number of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement for such transferor or assignee (as the case may be).  Any shares of Common Stock included in a Registration Statement and which remain allocated to any Person which ceases to hold any Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement shall be allocated to the remaining Investors, pro rata based on the number of Registrable Securities then held by such Investors which are covered by such Registration Statement.

(i)           No Inclusion of Other Securities.  The Company shall in no event include any securities other than Registrable Securities on any Registration Statement filed in accordance with Section 2(a) or Section 2(d) above without the prior written consent of the Required Holders.  Until the Applicable Date (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), the Company shall not enter into any agreement providing any registration rights to any of its security holders, other than the Investor Rights Agreement and PIPE Subscription Agreement and except as otherwise permitted under the Securities Purchase Agreement or the Investor Rights Agreement.

3.           Related Obligations.

The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof, and, pursuant thereto, the Company shall have the following obligations:

(a)           The Company shall promptly prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement with respect to all the Registrable Securities (but in no event later than the applicable Filing Deadline) and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing (but in no event later than the Effectiveness Deadline).  Subject to Allowable Grace Periods, the Company shall keep each Registration Statement effective (and the prospectus contained therein available for use) pursuant to Rule 415 for resales by the Investors on a delayed or continuous basis at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices) at all times until the earlier of (i) the date as of which all of the Investors may sell all of the Registrable Securities required to be covered by such Registration Statement (disregarding any reduction pursuant to Section 2(f)) without restriction pursuant to Rule 144 (including, without limitation, volume restrictions) and without the need for current public information required by Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) or (ii) the date on which the Investors shall have sold all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement (the “Registration Period”).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall ensure that, when filed and at all times while effective, each Registration Statement (including, without limitation, all amendments and supplements thereto) and the prospectus (including, without limitation, all amendments and supplements thereto) used in connection with such Registration Statement (1) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of prospectuses, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made) not misleading and (2) will disclose (whether directly or through incorporation by reference to other SEC filings to the extent permitted) all material information regarding the Company and its securities.  The Company shall submit to the SEC, within one (1) Business Day after the later of the date that (i) the Company learns that no review of a particular Registration Statement will be made by the Staff or that the Staff has no further comments on a particular Registration Statement (as the case may be) and (ii) the consent of Legal Counsel is obtained pursuant to Section 3(c) (which consent shall be promptly sought), a request for acceleration of effectiveness of such Registration Statement to a time and date not later than twenty-four (24) hours after the submission of such request.  The Company shall respond in writing to comments made by the SEC in respect of a Registration Statement as soon as practicable, but in no event later than fifteen (15) days after the receipt of comments by or notice from the SEC that an amendment is required in order for a Registration Statement to be declared effective.

10

(b)          Subject to Section 3(r) of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including, without limitation, post-effective amendments) and supplements to each Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with each such Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the 1933 Act, as may be necessary to keep each such Registration Statement effective at all times during the Registration Period for such Registration Statement, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company required to be covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement; provided, however, by 8:30 a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day immediately following each Effective Date, the Company shall file with the SEC in accordance with Rule 424(b) under the 1933 Act the final prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement (whether or not such a prospectus is technically required by such rule).  In the case of amendments and supplements to any Registration Statement which are required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, pursuant to this Section 3(b)) by reason of the Company filing a report on Form 8-K, Form 10-Q or Form 10-K or any analogous report under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), the Company shall, if permitted under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, have incorporated such report by reference into such Registration Statement, if applicable, or shall file such amendments or supplements with the SEC on the same day on which the 1934 Act report is filed which created the requirement for the Company to amend or supplement such Registration Statement.

(c)          The Company shall (A) permit Legal Counsel and legal counsel for each other Investor to review and comment upon (i) each Registration Statement at least three (3) Business Days prior to its filing with the SEC and (ii) all amendments and supplements to each Registration Statement (including, without limitation, the prospectus contained therein) (except for Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K, and any similar or successor reports) within a reasonable number of days prior to their filing with the SEC, and (B) not file any Registration Statement or amendment or supplement thereto in a form to which Legal Counsel or any legal counsel for any other Investor reasonably objects. The Company shall not submit a request for acceleration of the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto or to any prospectus contained therein without the prior consent of Legal Counsel, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall promptly furnish to Legal Counsel and legal counsel for each other Investor, without charge, (i) copies of any correspondence from the SEC or the Staff to the Company or its representatives relating to each Registration Statement, provided that such correspondence shall not contain any material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), (ii) after the same is prepared and filed with the SEC, one (1) copy of each Registration Statement and any amendment(s) and supplement(s) thereto, including, without limitation, financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference, if requested by an Investor, and all exhibits and (iii) upon the effectiveness of each Registration Statement, one (1) copy of the prospectus included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto. The Company shall reasonably cooperate with Legal Counsel and legal counsel for each other Investor in performing the Company’s obligations pursuant to this Section 3.

(d)         The Company shall promptly furnish to each Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in any Registration Statement, without charge, (i) after the same is prepared and filed with the SEC, at least one (1) copy of each Registration Statement and any amendment(s) and supplement(s) thereto, including, without limitation, financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference, if requested by an Investor, all exhibits and each preliminary prospectus, (ii) upon the effectiveness of each Registration Statement, ten (10) copies of the prospectus included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such other number of copies as such Investor may reasonably request from time to time) and (iii) such other documents, including, without limitation, copies of any preliminary or final prospectus, as such Investor may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Investor.

11

(e)           The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) register and qualify, unless an exemption from registration and qualification applies, the resale by Investors of the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of all applicable jurisdictions in the United States, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including, without limitation, post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(e), (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction.  The Company shall promptly notify Legal Counsel, legal counsel for each other Investor and each Investor who holds Registrable Securities of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.

(f)          The Company shall notify Legal Counsel, legal counsel for each other Investor and each Investor in writing of the happening of any event, as promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, as a result of which the prospectus included in a Registration Statement, as then in effect, may include an untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (provided that in no event shall such notice contain any material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), and, subject to Section 3(r), promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement and such prospectus contained therein to correct such untrue statement or omission and deliver ten (10) copies of such supplement or amendment to Legal Counsel, legal counsel for each other Investor and each Investor (or such other number of copies as Legal Counsel, legal counsel for each other Investor or such Investor may reasonably request). The Company shall also promptly notify Legal Counsel, legal counsel for each other Investor and each Investor in writing (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to Legal Counsel, legal counsel for each other Investor and each Investor by e-mail on the same day of such effectiveness and by overnight mail), and when the Company receives written notice from the SEC that a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment will be reviewed by the SEC, (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information, (iii) of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate; and (iv) of the receipt of any request by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority for any additional information relating to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto or any related prospectus.  The Company shall respond as promptly as practicable to any comments received from the SEC with respect to each Registration Statement or any amendment thereto (it being understood and agreed that the Company’s response to any such comments shall be delivered to the SEC no later than fifteen (15) Business Days after the receipt thereof).

12

(g)          The Company shall (i) use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of each Registration Statement or the use of any prospectus contained therein, or the suspension of the qualification, or the loss of an exemption from qualification, of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible moment and (ii) notify Legal Counsel, legal counsel for each other Investor and each Investor who holds Registrable Securities of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose.

(h)           If any Investor may be required under applicable securities law to be described in any Registration Statement as an underwriter and such Investor consents to so being named an underwriter, at the request of any Investor, the Company shall furnish to such Investor, on the date of the effectiveness of such Registration Statement and thereafter from time to time on such dates as an Investor may reasonably request (i) a letter, dated such date, from the Company’s independent certified public accountants in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the Investors, and (ii) an opinion, dated as of such date, of counsel representing the Company for purposes of such Registration Statement, in form, scope and substance as is customarily given in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the Investors.

(i)            If any Investor may be required under applicable securities law to be described in any Registration Statement as an underwriter and such Investor consents to so being named an underwriter, upon the written request of such Investor, the Company shall make available for inspection by (i) such Investor, (ii) legal counsel for such Investor and (iii) one (1) firm of accountants or other agents retained by such Investor (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all pertinent financial and other records, and pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the “Records”), as shall be reasonably deemed necessary by each Inspector, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information which any Inspector may reasonably request; provided, however, each Inspector shall agree in writing to hold in strict confidence and not to make any disclosure (except to such Investor) or use of any Record or other information which the Company’s board of directors determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which determination the Inspectors are so notified, unless (1) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement or is otherwise required under the 1933 Act, (2) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a final, non-appealable subpoena or order from a court or government body of competent jurisdiction, or (3) the information in such Records has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement).  Such Investor agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, the Records deemed confidential.  Nothing herein (or in any other confidentiality agreement between the Company and such Investor, if any) shall be deemed to limit any Investor’s ability to sell Registrable Securities in a manner which is otherwise consistent with applicable laws and regulations.

(j)          The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information concerning an Investor provided to the Company unless (i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement or is otherwise required to be disclosed in such Registration Statement pursuant to the 1933 Act, (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other final, non-appealable order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction, or (iv) such information has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.  The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning an Investor is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt written notice to such Investor and allow such Investor, at such Investor’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information.

(k)          Without limiting any obligation of the Company under the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts either to (i) cause all of the Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement to be listed on each securities exchange on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange, (ii) secure designation and quotation of all of the Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement on an Eligible Market (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), or (iii) if, despite the Company’s reasonable best efforts to satisfy the preceding clauses (i) or (ii) the Company is unsuccessful in satisfying the preceding clauses (i) or (ii), without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to use its reasonable best efforts to arrange for at least two market makers to register with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) as such with respect to such Registrable Securities.  In addition, the Company shall cooperate with each Investor and any broker or dealer through which any such Investor proposes to sell its Registrable Securities in effecting a filing with FINRA pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110 as requested by such Investor.  The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligations under this Section 3(k).

(l)          The Company shall cooperate with the Investors who hold Registrable Securities being offered and, to the extent applicable, facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legend) representing the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to a Registration Statement and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts (as the case may be) as the Investors may reasonably request from time to time and registered in such names as the Investors may request.

14

(m)          If requested by an Investor, the Company shall as soon as practicable after receipt of notice from such Investor and subject to Section 3(r) hereof, (i) incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as an Investor reasonably requests to be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being offered or sold, the purchase price being paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and (iii) supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement or prospectus contained therein if reasonably requested by an Investor holding any Registrable Securities.

(n)           The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

(o)           The Company shall make generally available to its security holders as soon as practical, but not later than ninety (90) days after the close of the period covered thereby, an earnings statement (in form complying with, and in the manner provided by, the provisions of Rule 158 under the 1933 Act) covering a twelve-month period beginning not later than the first day of the Company’s fiscal quarter next following the applicable Effective Date of each Registration Statement.

(p)           The Company shall otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC in connection with any registration hereunder.

(q)          Within one (1) Business Day after a Registration Statement which covers Registrable Securities is declared effective by the SEC, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities (with copies to the Investors whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration Statement) confirmation that such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

(r)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (but subject to the last sentence of this Section 3(r)), at any time after the Effective Date of a particular Registration Statement, the Company may delay the disclosure of material, non-public information concerning the Company or any of its Subsidiaries the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the board of directors of the Company, in the best interest of the Company and, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, otherwise required (a “Grace Period”), provided that the Company shall promptly notify the Investors in writing of the (i) existence of material, non-public information giving rise to a Grace Period (provided that in each such notice the Company shall not disclose the content of such material, non-public information to any of the Investors) and the date on which such Grace Period will begin and (ii) date on which such Grace Period ends, provided further that (I) no Grace Period shall exceed ten (10) consecutive Trading Days and during any three hundred sixty five (365) day period all such Grace Periods shall not exceed an aggregate of ninety (90) days, (II) the first day of any Grace Period must be at least five (5) Trading Days after the last day of any prior Grace Period and (III) no Grace Period may exist during the sixty (60) Trading Day period immediately following the Effective Date of such Registration Statement (provided that such sixty (60) Trading Day period shall be extended by the number of Trading Days during such period and any extension thereof contemplated by this proviso during which such Registration Statement is not effective or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use) (each, an “Allowable Grace Period”).  For purposes of determining the length of a Grace Period above, such Grace Period shall begin on and include the date the Investors receive the notice referred to in clause (i) above and shall end on and include the later of the date the Investors receive the notice referred to in clause (ii) above and the date referred to in such notice.  The provisions of Section 3(g) hereof shall not be applicable during the period of any Allowable Grace Period.  Upon expiration of each Grace Period, the Company shall again be bound by the first sentence of Section 3(f) with respect to the information giving rise thereto unless such material, non-public information is no longer applicable.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3(r), the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to a transferee of an Investor in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which such Investor has entered into a contract for sale, and delivered a copy of the prospectus included as part of the particular Registration Statement to the extent applicable, prior to such Investor’s receipt of the notice of a Grace Period and for which the Investor has not yet settled.

15

(s)            The Company shall take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by each Investor of its Registrable Securities pursuant to each Registration Statement.

(t)           Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary or affiliate thereof shall identify any Investor as an underwriter in any public disclosure or filing with the SEC, the Principal Marketor any Eligible Market and any Buyer being deemed an underwriter by the SEC shall not relieve the Company of any obligations it has under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit the Company from including the disclosure found in the "Plan of Distribution" section attached hereto as Exhibit B in the Registration Statement.

(u)          Except for the Investor Rights Agreement, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has entered, as of the date hereof, nor shall the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities, that would have the effect of impairing the rights granted to the Buyers in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof.

4.           Obligations of the Investors.

(a)          At least five (5) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of each Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each Investor in writing of the information the Company requires from each such Investor with respect to such Registration Statement.  It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of a particular Investor that such Investor shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it, as shall be reasonably required to effect and maintain the effectiveness of the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request.

16

(b)          Each Investor, by such Investor’s acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of each Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Investor has notified the Company in writing of such Investor’s election to exclude all of such Investor’s Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.

(c)          Each Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(g) or the first sentence of 3(f), such Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement(s) covering such Registrable Securities until such Investor’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(g) or the first sentence of Section 3(f) or receipt of notice that no supplement or amendment is required.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4(c), the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to a transferee of an Investor in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which such Investor has entered into a contract for sale prior to the Investor’s receipt of a notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(g) or the first sentence of Section 3(f) and for which such Investor has not yet settled.

5.           Expenses of Registration.

All reasonable expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions and brokerage fees, incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3, including, without limitation, all registration, listing and qualifications fees, printers and accounting fees, FINRA filing fees (if any) and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company shall be paid by the Company.  The Company shall reimburse Legal Counsel for its fees and disbursements in connection with registration, filing or qualification pursuant to Sections 2 and 3 of this Agreement which amount shall be limited to $10,000 for each such registration, filing or qualification.

17

6.           Indemnification.

(a)           To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Investor and each of its directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees, agents, advisors, representatives (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding the lack of such title or any other title) and each Person, if any, who controls such Investor within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act and each of the directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees, agents, advisors, representatives (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding the lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling Persons (each, an “Indemnified Person”), against any losses, obligations, claims, damages, liabilities, contingencies, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs (including, without limitation, court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of defense and investigation), amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several, (collectively, “Claims”) incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency, body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an Indemnified Person is or may be a party thereto (“Indemnified Damages”), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon:  (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are offered (“Blue Sky Filing”), or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus if used prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement, or contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement or (iv) any violation of this Agreement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) being, collectively, “Violations”).  Subject to Section 6(c), the Company shall reimburse the Indemnified Persons, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a):  (i) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified Person arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person for such Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of such Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(d); and (ii) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of any of the Registrable Securities by any of the Investors pursuant to Section 9.

(b)           In connection with any Registration Statement in which an Investor is participating, such Investor agrees to severally and not jointly indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (each, an “Indemnified Party”), against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case, to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement; and, subject to Section 6(c) and the below provisos in this Section 6(b), such Investor will reimburse an Indemnified Party any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of such Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided further that such Investor shall be liable under this Section 6(b) for only that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Investor as a result of the applicable sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.  Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of any of the Registrable Securities by any of the Investors pursuant to Section 9.

18

(c)           Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party (as the case may be) under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including, without limitation, any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party (as the case may be) shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party (as the case may be); provided, however, an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party (as the case may be) shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the indemnifying party if:  (i) the indemnifying party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; (ii) the indemnifying party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Claim and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party (as the case may be) in any such Claim; or (iii) the named parties to any such Claim (including, without limitation, any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party (as the case may be) and the indemnifying party, and such Indemnified Person or such Indemnified Party (as the case may be) shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Person or such Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party (in which case, if such Indemnified Person or such Indemnified Party (as the case may be) notifies the indemnifying party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, then the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party, provided further that in the case of clause (iii) above the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one (1) separate legal counsel for such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party (as the case may be).  The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person (as the case may be) shall reasonably cooperate with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person (as the case may be) which relates to such action or Claim.  The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person (as the case may be) reasonably apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto.  No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent; provided, however, the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent.  No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person (as the case may be), consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise 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 does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person (as the case may be) of a release from all liability in respect to such Claim or litigation, and such settlement shall not include any admission as to fault on the part of the Indemnified Party.  Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person (as the case may be) with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made.  The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party (as the case may be) under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially and adversely prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

19

(d)           The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred.

(e)          The indemnity and contribution agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

7.           Contribution.

To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however:  (i) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker would not have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in Section 6 of this Agreement, (ii) no Person involved in the sale of Registrable Securities which Person is guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) in connection with such sale shall be entitled to contribution from any Person involved in such sale of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (iii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the amount of net proceeds received by such seller from the applicable sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, no Investor shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds actually received by such Investor from the applicable sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the Claim exceeds the amount of any damages that such Investor has otherwise been required to pay, or would otherwise be required to pay under Section 6(b), by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

8.           Reports Under the 1934 Act.

With a view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144, the Company agrees to:

20

(a)          make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;

(b)          file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements (it being understood and agreed that nothing herein shall limit any obligations of the Company under the Securities Purchase Agreement) and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and

(c)          furnish to each Investor so long as such Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company, if true, that it has complied with the reporting, submission and posting requirements of Rule 144, the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company with the SEC if such reports are not publicly available via EDGAR, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investors to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.

9.           Assignment of Registration Rights.

All or any portion of the rights under this Agreement shall be automatically assignable by each Investor to any transferee or assignee (as the case may be) of all or any portion of such Investor’s Registrable Securities, Notes or Warrants, other than any transferee or assignee upon a registered offering or sale pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Act, if:  (i) such Investor agrees in writing with such transferee or assignee (as the case may be, a “Permitted Tranferee”) to assign all or any portion of such rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company within a reasonable time after such transfer or assignment (as the case may be); (ii) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer or assignment (as the case may be), furnished with written notice of (a) the name and address of such transferee or assignee (as the case may be), and (b) the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned (as the case may be); (iii) immediately following such transfer or assignment (as the case may be) the further disposition of such securities by such transferee or assignee (as the case may be) is restricted under the 1933 Act or applicable state securities laws if so required; (iv) at or before the time the Company receives the written notice contemplated by clause (ii) of this sentence such transferee or assignee (as the case may be) agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions contained herein; (v) such transfer or assignment (as the case may be) shall have been made in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Notes and the Warrants (as the case may be); and (vi) such transfer or assignment (as the case may be) shall have been conducted in accordance with all applicable federal and state securities laws.

21

10.         Amendment of Registration Rights.

Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company and the Required Holders; provided that any such amendment or waiver that complies with the foregoing, but that disproportionately, materially and adversely affects the rights and obligations of any Investor relative to the comparable rights and obligations of the other Investors shall require the prior written consent of such adversely affected Investor; provided further that no modification, amendment or waiver of Section 2(g)(ii) hereof shall be effective without the prior written consent of the persons required to amend the Investor Rights Agreement (the "IRA Parties") and such persons shall consistute third party beneficiaries of this Agreement.  Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 10 shall be binding upon each Investor and the Company, provided that no such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it (1) applies to less than all of the holders of Registrable Securities or (2) imposes any obligation or liability on any Investor without such Investor’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Investor’s sole discretion).  No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party.  No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of this Agreement unless the same consideration (other than the reimbursement of legal fees) also is offered to all of the parties to this Agreement.

11.        This Agreement shall terminate upon the date on which neither the Holders nor any of their Permitted Transferees hold any Registrable Securities, Notes or Warrants. This Agreement shall only become effective upon the Closing Date, and prior to such date and time this Agreement shall be of no force effect.

12.         Miscellaneous.

(d)          All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York.  Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper.  Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.  EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

(e)          If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties.  The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

(f)          This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto and thereto solely with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.  There are no restrictions, promises, warranties or undertakings, other than those set forth or referred to herein and therein.  This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein supersede all prior agreements and understandings among the parties hereto solely with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof; provided, however, nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall (or shall be deemed to) (i) have any effect on any agreements any Investor has entered into with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof with respect to any prior investment made by such Investor in the Company, (ii) waive, alter, modify or amend in any respect any obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any rights of or benefits to any Investor or any other Person in any agreement entered into prior to the date hereof between or among the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries and any Investor and all such agreements shall continue in full force and effect or (iii) limit any obligations of the Company under any of the other Transaction Documents.

24

(g)          Subject to compliance with Section 9 (if applicable), this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the permitted successors and assigns of each of the parties hereto.  This Agreement is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any Person, other than the parties hereto, their respective permitted successors and assigns and the Persons referred to in Sections 6 and 7 hereof.

(h)           The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.  Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof.  The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.”  The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision in which they are found.

(i)           This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party.  In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an email which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

(j)            Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(k)           The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 10, terms used in this Agreement but defined in the other Transaction Documents shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms on the Closing Date in such other Transaction Documents unless otherwise consented to in writing by each Investor.

25

(l)           All consents and other determinations required to be made by the Investors pursuant to this Agreement shall be made, unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, by the Required Holders, determined as if all of the outstanding Notes then held by the Investors have been converted for Registrable Securities without regard to any limitations on redemption, amortization and/or conversion of the Notes and the outstanding Warrants then held by Investors have been exercised for Registrable Securities without regard to any limitations on exercise of the Warrants.

(m)          Except as set forth in Section 10 with respect to the IRA Parties, this Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, and the parties hereto acknowledge that the IRA Parties are third party beneficiaries of this Agreement with right of enforcement for the purposes of, and to the extent of, the rights granted to them, if any, pursuant to the applicable provisions.

(n)           The obligations of each Investor under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents 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 this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.  Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as, and the Company acknowledges that the Investors do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group or entity with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or any matters, and the Company acknowledges that the Investors are not acting in concert or as a group, and the Company shall not assert any such claim, with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other 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 any 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 use of a single agreement with respect to the obligations of the Company contained herein was solely in the control of the Company, not the action or decision of any Investor, and was done solely for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Investor.  It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between the Company and an Investor, solely, and not between the Company and the Investors collectively and not between and among Investors.

Re:          Adagio Medical Holdings, Inc.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

[We are][I am] counsel to Adagio Medical Holdings, Inc. (f/k/a Aja Holdco, Inc.), a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and have represented the Company in connection with that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) entered into by and among the Company and the buyers named therein (collectively, the “Holders”) pursuant to which the Company issued to the Holders senior secured convertible notes (the “Notes”) convertible into the Company’s shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), and warrants exercisable for shares of Common Stock (the “Warrants”).  Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company also has entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Holders (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to register the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), including the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”).  In connection with the Company’s obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, on ____________ ___, 2024, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form [S-1][S-3] (File No. 333-_____________) (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) relating to the Registrable Securities which names each of the Holders as a selling stockholder thereunder.

In connection with the foregoing, [we][I] advise you that [a member of the SEC’s staff has advised [us][me] by telephone that [the SEC has entered an order declaring the Registration Statement effective under the 1933 Act at [ENTER TIME OF EFFECTIVENESS] on [ENTER DATE OF EFFECTIVENESS]] [an order declaring the Registration Statement effective under the 1933 Act at [ENTER TIME OF EFFECTIVENESS] on [ENTER DATE OF EFFECTIVENESS]] has been posted on the web site of the SEC at www.sec.gov] and [we][I] have no knowledge, after a review of information posted on the website of the SEC at http://www.sec.gov/litigation/stoporders.shtml, that any stop order suspending its effectiveness has been issued or that any proceedings for that purpose are pending before, or threatened by, the SEC and the Registrable Securities are available for resale under the 1933 Act pursuant to the Registration Statement.

This letter shall serve as our standing opinion to you that the shares of Common Stock underlying the Notes and Warrants are freely transferable by the Holders pursuant to the Registration Statement.  You need not require further letters from us to effect any future legend-free issuance or reissuance of such shares of Common Stock to the Holders as contemplated by the Company’s Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions dated _________ __, 20__.

Very truly yours,

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

The shares of common stock being offered by the selling stockholders are those issuable to the selling stockholders upon conversion of the notes and exercise of the warrants.  For additional information regarding the issuance of the notes and the warrants, see “Private Placement of Notes and Warrants” above.  We are registering the shares of common stock in order to permit the selling stockholders to offer the shares for resale from time to time.  Except for the ownership of the notes and the warrants issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the selling stockholders have not had any material relationship with us within the past three years.

The table below lists the selling stockholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership (as determined under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder) of the shares of common stock held by each of the selling stockholders.  The second column lists the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholders, based on their respective ownership of shares of common stock, notes and warrants, as of ________, 20__, assuming conversion of the notes and exercise of the warrants held by each such selling stockholder on that date but taking account of any limitations on conversion and exercise set forth therein.

The third column lists the shares of common stock being offered by this prospectus by the selling stockholders and does not take in account any limitations on (i) conversion of the notes set forth therein or (ii) exercise of the warrants set forth therein.

In accordance with the terms of a registration rights agreement with the holders of the notes and the warrants, this prospectus generally covers the resale of the sum of (i) 200% of the maximum number of shares of common stock issued or issuable pursuant to the Notes, including payment of interest on the notes through [DATE], and (ii) the maximum number of shares of common stock issued or issuable upon exercise of the warrants, in each case, determined as if the outstanding notes (including interest on the notes through [DATE]) and warrants were converted or exercised (as the case may be) in full (without regard to any limitations on conversion or exercise contained therein solely for the purpose of such calculation) at an alternate conversion price or exercise price (as the case may be) calculated as of the trading day immediately preceding the date this registration statement was initially filed with the SEC.  Because the conversion price and alternate conversion price of the notes and the exercise price of the warrants may be adjusted, the number of shares that will actually be issued may be more or less than the number of shares being offered by this prospectus.  The fourth column assumes the sale of all of the shares offered by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus.

Under the terms of the notes and the warrants, a selling stockholder may not convert the notes or exercise the warrants to the extent (but only to the extent) such selling stockholder or any of its affiliates would beneficially own a number of shares of our common stock which would exceed 4.99% of the outstanding shares of the Company.  The number of shares in the second column reflects these limitations.  The selling stockholders may sell all, some or none of their shares in this offering.  See “Plan of Distribution.”

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We are registering the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes and exercise of the warrants to permit the resale of these shares of common stock by the holders of the notes and warrants from time to time after the date of this prospectus.  We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the selling stockholders of the shares of common stock, although we will receive the exercise price of any Warrants not exercised by the selling stockholders on a cashless exercise basis.  We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the shares of common stock.

The selling stockholders may sell all or a portion of the shares of common stock held by them and offered hereby from time to time directly or through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents.  If the shares of common stock are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers, the selling stockholders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent’s commissions.  The shares of common stock may be sold in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale or at negotiated prices.  These sales may be effected in transactions, which may involve crosses or block transactions, pursuant to one or more of the following methods:

• on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the securities may be listed or quoted at the time of sale;

• in the over-the-counter market;

• in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market;

• through the writing or settlement of options, whether such options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise;

• ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

• block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

• purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

• an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

• privately negotiated transactions;

• short sales made after the date the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC;

• broker-dealers may agree with a selling security holder to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

• a combination of any such methods of sale; and

• any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling stockholders may also sell shares of common stock under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if available, rather than under this prospectus.  In addition, the selling stockholders may transfer the shares of common stock by other means not described in this prospectus.  If the selling stockholders effect such transactions by selling shares of common stock to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders or commissions from purchasers of the shares of common stock for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal (which discounts, concessions or commissions as to particular underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be in excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved).  In connection with sales of the shares of common stock or otherwise, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares of common stock in the course of hedging in positions they assume.  The selling stockholders may also sell shares of common stock short and deliver shares of common stock covered by this prospectus to close out short positions and to return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales.  The selling stockholders may also loan or pledge shares of common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell such shares.

The selling stockholders may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the notes, warrants or shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock from time to time pursuant to this prospectus or any amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending, if necessary, the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.  The selling stockholders also may transfer and donate the shares of common stock in other circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

To the extent required by the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, the selling stockholders and any broker-dealer participating in the distribution of the shares of common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any commission paid, or any discounts or concessions allowed to, any such broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.  At the time a particular offering of the shares of common stock is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed, which will set forth the aggregate amount of shares of common stock being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any broker-dealers or agents, any discounts, commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the selling stockholders and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to broker-dealers.

Under the securities laws of some states, the shares of common stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers.  In addition, in some states the shares of common stock may not be sold unless such shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.

There can be no assurance that any selling stockholder will sell any or all of the shares of common stock registered pursuant to the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part.

The selling stockholders and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, to the extent applicable, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholders and any other participating person.  To the extent applicable, Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares of common stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock.  All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares of common stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock.

We will pay all expenses of the registration of the shares of common stock pursuant to the registration rights agreement, estimated to be $[     ] in total, including, without limitation, Securities and Exchange Commission filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws; provided, however, a selling stockholder will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions, if any.  We will indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including some liabilities under the Securities Act in accordance with the registration rights agreements or the selling stockholders will be entitled to contribution.  We may be indemnified by the selling stockholders against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act that may arise from any written information furnished to us by the selling stockholder specifically for use in this prospectus, in accordance with the related registration rights agreements or we may be entitled to contribution.

Once sold under the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, the shares of common stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and each Buyer hereby agree as follows:

1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF NOTES AND WARRANTS.

(a) Purchase of Notes and Warrants. Subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions set forth in Sections 6 and 7 below, the Company shall issue and sell to each Buyer, and each Buyer severally, but not jointly, agrees to purchase from the Company on the Closing Date (as defined below) a Note in the original principal amount as is set forth opposite such Buyer’s name in column (3) on the Schedule of Buyers along with Warrants to initially acquire up to that aggregate number of Warrant Shares as is set forth opposite such Buyer’s name in column (4) on the Schedule of Buyers.

The closing (the “Closing”) of the purchase of the Notes and the Warrants by the Buyers shall occur at the offices of Kelley Drye & Warren LLP, 3 World Trade Center, 175 Greenwich Street, New York, NY 10007. The date and time of the Closing (the “Closing Date”) shall be immediately following the time of the closing of the Business Combination on the Business Combination Closing Date, so long as the conditions to the Closing set forth in Sections 6 and 7 below are satisfied or waived as of such date, and in any event no later than the first (1st) Business Day on which the conditions to the Closing set forth in Sections 6 and 7 below are satisfied or waived (or such other date as is mutually agreed to by the Company and each Buyer). As used herein “Business Day” means any day other than Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks in The City of New York are authorized or required by law to remain closed; provided, however, for clarification, commercial banks shall not be deemed to be authorized or required by law to remain closed due to “stay at home”, “shelter-in-place”, “non-essential employee” or any other similar orders or restrictions or the closure of any physical branch locations at the direction of any governmental authority so long as the electronic funds transfer systems (including for wire transfers) of commercial banks in The City of New York generally are open for use by customers on such day.

(c) Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price for the Notes and the Warrants to be purchased by each Buyer (the “Purchase Price”) shall be the amount set forth opposite such Buyer’s name in column (5) on the Schedule of Buyers; provided, that to the extent set forth on the Schedule of Buyers, a Buyer may satisfy its payment of the Purchase Price, in whole or in part, through the cancellation of (or transfer to the Company of) outstanding Indebtedness of the applicable BC Party then held by such Buyer as specified opposite such Buyer’s name on the Schedule of Buyers attached hereto (each, a “Non-Cash Purchase Price Amount”). Each Buyer shall pay $1,000 for each $1,000 of principal amount of Notes and related Warrants to be purchased by such Buyer at the Closing. Each Buyer and the Company agree that the Notes and the Warrants constitute an “investment unit” for purposes of Section 1273(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Buyers and the Company agree that the allocation of the Purchase Price, which is the issue price of such investment unit, between the Notes and the Warrants in accordance with Section 1273(c)(2) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.1273-2(h) shall be an aggregate amount of $187,500 allocated to the Warrants and the balance of the Purchase Price allocated to the Notes, and neither the Buyers nor the Company shall take any position inconsistent with such allocation in any tax return or in any judicial or administrative proceeding in respect of taxes.

(d) Form of Payment. On the Closing Date, (i) each Buyer shall pay its respective Purchase Price (less, in the case of any Buyer, the amounts withheld pursuant to Section 4(g) and any applicable Non-Cash Purchase

2

Price Amount) to the Company for the Notes and the Warrants to be issued and sold to such Buyer at the Closing, by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the Flow of Funds Letter (as defined below) and (ii) the Company shall deliver to each Buyer (A) a Note in the aggregate original principal amount as is set forth opposite such Buyer’s name in column (3) of the Schedule of Buyers, and (B) a Warrant pursuant to which such Buyer shall have the right to initially acquire up to such aggregate number of Warrant Shares as is set forth opposite such Buyer’s name in column (4) of the Schedule of Buyers, in each case, duly executed on behalf of the Company and registered in the name of such Buyer or its designee.

2. BUYER’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

Each Buyer, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to the Company with respect to only itself that, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date:

(a) Organization; Authority.

The Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, immediately after giving effect to the Business Combination and the transactions contemplated hereby to occur at the Closing, and assuming (x) the truth and accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Buyers set forth in Section and (y) compliance by the Buyers with their covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, will not be Insolvent (as defined below).

Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in any business or in any transaction, and is not about to engage in any business or in any transaction, for which the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s remaining assets constitute unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the business in which it is engaged as such business is now conducted and is proposed to be conducted.

No event, liability, development or circumstance has occurred or exists, or is reasonably expected to exist or occur with respect to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, properties, liabilities, prospects, operations (including results thereof) or financial condition, that (i) would be required to be disclosed by the Company under applicable securities laws on a registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC relating to an issuance and sale by the Company of its Common Stock and which has not been publicly announced, (ii) could have a material adverse effect on any Buyer’s investment hereunder or (iii) could have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company is not in violation of any of the rules, regulations or requirements of the Principal Market and has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances that could reasonably lead to delisting or suspension of the Common Stock by the Principal Market in the foreseeable future. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries possess all material certificates, authorizations and permits (“Material Permits”) issued by the appropriate regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses, except where the failure to possess such certificates, authorizations or permits would not have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect. Except as would not and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect, (i) each Material Permit is in full force and effect in accordance with its terms and (ii) no written notice of suspension, limitation, revocation, cancellation, modification or termination of any Material Permit has been received by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(o) Foreign Corrupt Practices. Neither the Company, the Company’s Subsidiaries or, to the Company’s knowledge, any director, officer, agent, employee, nor any other person acting for or on behalf of the foregoing (individually and collectively, a “Company Affiliate”) have violated the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”) or any other applicable anti-bribery or anti-corruption laws, nor has, to the Company’s knowledge, any Company Affiliate offered, paid, promised to pay, or authorized the payment of any money, or offered, given, promised to give, or authorized the giving of anything of value, to any officer, employee or any other person acting in an official capacity for any Governmental Entity to any political party or official thereof or to any candidate for political office (individually and collectively, a “Government Official”) or to any person under circumstances where such Company Affiliate knew or was aware of a high probability that all or a portion of such money or thing of value would be offered, given or promised, directly or indirectly, to any Government Official, for the purpose of:

Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries, (i) except as disclosed on Schedule 3(s), has any outstanding debt securities, notes, credit agreements, credit facilities or other agreements, documents or instruments evidencing Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is or may become bound, (ii) has any financing statements securing obligations in any amounts filed in connection with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (iii) is in material violation of any term of, or in default under, any contract, agreement or instrument relating to any Indebtedness, except where such violations and defaults would not result, individually or in the aggregate, in a Company Material Adverse Effect, or (iv) is a party to any contract, agreement or instrument relating to any Indebtedness, the performance of which, in the judgment of the Company’s officers, has or is expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

For purposes of this Agreement: (x) “Indebtedness” of any Person means, without duplication (A) all indebtedness for borrowed money, (B) all obligations issued, undertaken or assumed as the deferred purchase price of property or services (including, without limitation, “capital leases” in accordance with GAAP) (other than trade payables entered into in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice), (C) all reimbursement or payment obligations with respect to letters of credit, surety bonds and other similar instruments, (D) all obligations evidenced by notes, bonds, debentures or similar instruments, including obligations so evidenced incurred in connection with the acquisition of property, assets or businesses, (E) all indebtedness created or arising under any conditional sale or other title retention agreement, or incurred as financing, in either case with respect to any property or assets acquired with the proceeds of such indebtedness (even though the rights and remedies of the seller or bank under such agreement in the event of default are limited to repossession or sale of such property), (F) all monetary obligations under any leasing or similar arrangement which, in connection with GAAP, consistently applied for the periods covered thereby, is classified as a capital lease, (G) all indebtedness referred to in clauses (A) through (F) above secured by (or for which the holder of such Indebtedness has an existing right, contingent or otherwise, to be secured by) any Lien upon or in any property or assets (including accounts and contract rights) owned by any Person, even though the Person which owns such assets or property has not assumed or become liable for the payment of such indebtedness, and (H) all Contingent Obligations in respect of indebtedness or obligations of others of the kinds referred to in clauses (A) through (G) above; and (y) “Contingent Obligation” means, as to any Person, any direct or indirect

13

liability, contingent or otherwise, of that Person with respect to any Indebtedness, lease, dividend or other obligation of another Person if the primary purpose or intent of the Person incurring such liability, or the primary effect thereof, is to provide assurance to the obligee of such liability that such liability will be paid or discharged, or that any agreements relating thereto will be complied with, or that the holders of such liability will be protected (in whole or in part) against loss with respect thereto.

(t) Litigation. There is no action, suit, arbitration, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by the Principal Market, any court, public board, other Governmental Entity, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened in writing against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that, if adversely decided or resolved, has been or would reasonably be expected to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

Neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied for, and neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will be unable to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that would not have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(v) Employee Relations. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any collective bargaining agreement or employs any member of a union. The Company and its Subsidiaries believe that their relations with their employees are good. No executive officer (as defined in Rule 501(f) promulgated under the 1933 Act) or other key employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has notified the Company or any such Subsidiary that such officer intends to leave the Company or any such Subsidiary or otherwise terminate such officer’s employment with the Company or any such Subsidiary. No current (or former) executive officer or other key employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement, non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant, and the continued employment of each such executive officer or other key employee (as the case may be) does not subject the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations respecting labor, employment and employment practices and benefits, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where failure to be in compliance would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect.

Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries holds good title to all real property, leases in real property, facilities or other interests in real property owned or held by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Real Property”) owned by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as applicable). The Real Property is free and clear of all Liens and is not subject to any rights of way, building use restrictions, exceptions, variances, reservations, or limitations of any nature except for Permitted Liens (as defined in the Notes). Any Real Property held under lease by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do not interfere in any material respect with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and buildings by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(ii) Fixtures and Equipment. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries (as applicable) has good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, the tangible personal property, equipment, improvements, fixtures, and other personal property and appurtenances that are used by the Company or its Subsidiary in connection with the conduct of its business (the “Fixtures and Equipment”) except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries owns all of its Fixtures and Equipment free and clear of all Liens except for Permitted Liens.

14

The Company and its Subsidiaries own or possess adequate rights or licenses to use all trademarks, trade names, service marks, service mark registrations, service names, original works of authorship, patents, patent rights, copyrights, inventions, licenses, approvals, governmental authorizations, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights and all applications and registrations therefor (“Intellectual Property Rights”) necessary to conduct their respective businesses as now conducted, except where the failure to so own or possess would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect. The Company does not have any knowledge of any infringement by the Company or its Subsidiaries of Intellectual Property Rights of others. There is no written claim, action or proceeding being made or brought, or to the knowledge of the Company, being threatened in writing, that is currently pending against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries regarding infringement of third party Intellectual Property Rights. The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of their material Intellectual Property Rights.

(y) Environmental Laws. (i) The Company and its Subsidiaries (A) are in compliance with any and all Environmental Laws (as defined below), (B) have received all permits, licenses or other approvals required of them under applicable Environmental Laws to conduct their respective businesses and (C) are in compliance with all terms and conditions of any such permit, license or approval where, in each of the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the failure to so comply could be reasonably expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect. The term “Environmental Laws” means all federal, state, local or foreign laws relating to pollution or protection of human health or the environment (including, without limitation, ambient air, surface water, groundwater, land surface or subsurface strata), including, without limitation, laws relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened releases of chemicals, pollutants, contaminants, or toxic or hazardous substances or wastes (collectively, “Hazardous Materials”) into the environment, or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of Hazardous Materials, as well as all authorizations, codes, decrees, demands or demand letters, injunctions, judgments, licenses, notices or notice letters, orders, permits, plans or regulations issued, entered, promulgated or approved thereunder.

(ii) No Hazardous Materials:

(A) have been disposed of or otherwise released from any Real Property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in violation of any Environmental Laws, which violation would have a Company Material Adverse Effect; or

(B) are present on, over, beneath, in or upon any Real Property or any portion thereof in quantities that would constitute a violation of any Environmental Laws. No prior use by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any Real Property has occurred that violates any Environmental Laws, which violation would have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(iii) Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries knows of any other person who or entity which has stored, treated, recycled, disposed of or otherwise located on any Real Property any Hazardous Materials, including, without limitation, such substances as asbestos and polychlorinated biphenyls.

(iv) Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect, none of the Real Properties are on any federal or state “Superfund” list or Liability Information System (“CERCLIS”) list or any state environmental agency list of sites under consideration for CERCLIS, nor subject to any environmental related Liens.

The Company and each of its Subsidiaries (i) has filed all material tax returns, reports and declarations required to have been filed by it with any Governmental Entity, and (ii) has paid all material taxes and other governmental assessments and charges, in each case in the nature of taxes, required to be paid by it that are shown or determined to be due on such returns, reports and declarations, except those being

15

contested in good faith. There are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed in writing to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries know of no basis for any such claim. The Company is not operated in such a manner as to qualify as a passive foreign investment company, as defined in Section 1297 of the Code.

(bb) Internal Accounting and Disclosure Controls. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries maintains internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the 1934 Act) that is effective to provide, in all material respects, reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, including that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset and liability accountability and (iii) the unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's or each of its Subsidiaries' properties or assets could be prevented or timely detected. The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the 1934 Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the 1934 Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, including, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the 1934 Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and its principal financial officer or officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Except as disclosed in the SEC Documents, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any written notice from any accountant, Governmental Entity or other Person that there is a “material weakness” in the internal controls over financial reporting of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or a “significant deficiency” in the internal controls over financial reporting of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(cc) Off Balance Sheet Arrangements. There is no transaction, arrangement, or other relationship between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and an unconsolidated or other off balance sheet entity that is required to be disclosed by the Company in its 1934 Act filings and is not so disclosed or that otherwise could be reasonably likely to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

The Company is not, and upon consummation of the sale of the Securities will not be, an “investment company,” an affiliate of an “investment company,” a company controlled by an “investment company” or an “affiliated person” of, or “promoter” or “principal underwriter” for, an “investment company” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

16

activities (including, without limitation, the location and/or reservation of borrowable shares of Common Stock), if any, can reduce the value of the existing stockholders’ equity interest in the Company both at and after the time the hedging and/or trading activities are being conducted. The Company acknowledges that such aforementioned hedging and/or trading activities, to the extent conducted in compliance with Section 4(dd), do not constitute a breach of this Agreement, the Notes, the Warrants or any other Transaction Document or any of the documents executed in connection herewith or therewith.

Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has, and, to the knowledge of the Company, no Person acting on their behalf has, directly or indirectly, (i) taken any action designed to cause or to result in the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to facilitate the sale or resale of any of the Securities, (ii) sold, bid for, purchased, or paid any compensation for soliciting purchases of, any of the Securities (other than the Placement Agent), (iii) paid or agreed to pay to any Person any compensation for soliciting another to purchase any other securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (iv) paid or agreed to pay any Person for research services with respect to any securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

3A REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SPAC

The SPAC represents and warrants to each of the Buyers, the Target and the Company that, as of the date hereof:

Each of the SPAC and each of its SPAC Subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign entity to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a SPAC Material Adverse Effect (as defined below). As used in this Agreement, “SPAC Material Adverse Effect” means any material adverse effect on (i) the transactions contemplated hereby or in any of the other Transaction Documents or any other agreements or instruments to be entered into in connection herewith or therewith or (iii) the authority or ability of the SPAC or any of its SPAC Subsidiaries to perform any of their respective obligations under any of the Transaction Documents (as defined below).

This Agreement has been, and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party will be prior to or upon the Closing, duly executed and delivered by the SPAC, and each constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the SPAC (assuming that this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the SPAC is or will be a party are or will be upon execution thereof, as applicable, duly authorized, executed and delivered by the other Persons party thereto (if any)), enforceable against the SPAC in accordance with its respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies and except as rights to indemnification and to contribution may be limited by federal or state securities law.

(c) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the SPAC and its SPAC Subsidiaries and the consummation by the SPAC and its SPAC Subsidiaries of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not (i) result in a violation of the certificate of formation, memorandum of association, articles of association, bylaws or other organizational documents of the SPAC or any of its SPAC Subsidiaries, or any capital stock or other securities of the SPAC or any of its SPAC Subsidiaries, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) in any respect under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the SPAC or any of its SPAC Subsidiaries is a party (including, without limitation, the Business Combination Agreement), or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including, without limitation, foreign, federal and state securities laws and regulations and the rules and regulations of the Principal Market and including all applicable foreign, federal and state laws, rules and regulations) to which the SPAC or any of its SPAC Subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of the SPAC or any of its SPAC Subsidiaries is subject or bound, except, in the case of any of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, as would not have a SPAC Material Adverse Effect.

(d) Consents. Neither the SPAC nor any SPAC Subsidiary is required to obtain any consent from, approval of or authorization or order of, or make any designation, declaration or filing or registration with (other than the Required Approvals), any Governmental Entity or any regulatory or self-regulatory agency or any other Person in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its respective obligations under or contemplated by the Transaction Documents, in each case, in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof. All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and registrations which the SPAC or any SPAC Subsidiary is required to obtain pursuant to the preceding sentence have been or will be obtained or effected on or prior to the Closing Date, and neither the SPAC nor any of its SPAC Subsidiaries are aware of any facts or circumstances which might prevent the SPAC or any of its SPAC Subsidiaries from obtaining or effecting any of the registration, application or filings contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

(f) No Integrated Offering. None of the SPAC, its SPAC Subsidiaries or any of their affiliates, nor any Person acting on their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would require registration of any of the Securities under the 1933 Act, whether through integration with prior offerings or otherwise, or cause this offering of the Securities to require approval of shareholders of the SPAC for purposes of the 1933 Act or under any applicable shareholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any exchange or automated quotation system on which any of the securities of the SPAC are listed or designated for quotation.

21

None of the SPAC, its SPAC Subsidiaries, their affiliates nor any Person acting on their behalf will take any action or steps that would require registration of any of the Securities under the 1933 Act or cause the offering of any of the Securities to be integrated with other offerings of securities of the SPAC.

As of their respective dates, the financial statements of the SPAC included in the SPAC SEC Documents complied in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto as in effect as of the time of filing, or, if amended, as of the date of such amendment. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied, during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto, or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements) and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the SPAC as of the dates thereof and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, (i) in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments which will not be material, either individually or in the aggregate, and (ii) changes to historical accounting policies of the SPAC in connection with any order, directive, guideline, comment or recommendation from the SEC that is applicable to the SPAC).

The Company shall maintain the Common Stock’s listing or authorization for quotation (as the case may be) on the Principal Market, The New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE American, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Nasdaq Global Market or the Nasdaq Global Select Market (each, an “Eligible Market”).

The Company hereby agrees to execute and deliver such documentation as a pledgee of the Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge of the Securities to such pledgee by a Buyer.

(i) Disclosure of Transactions and Other Material Information.

(i) Disclosure of Transaction. The SPAC shall, on or before 9:00 a.m., New York time, on the first (1st) Business Day after the Subscription Date, issue a press release (the “Press Release”) reasonably acceptable to the Buyers disclosing all the material terms of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. On or before 5:30 a.m., New York time, on the first (1st) Business Day after the Subscription Date, the SPAC shall file a Current Report on Form 8-K describing all the material terms of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents in the form required by the 1934 Act and attaching all the material Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, this Agreement (and all schedules to this Agreement), the form of Notes, the form of the Warrants, the form of Guaranties, the form of Security Documents, the form of Investor Rights Agreement, and the form of the Registration Rights Agreement) (including all attachments, the “8-K Filing”). From and after the filing of the 8-K Filing, the SPAC shall have disclosed all material, non-public information (if any) provided to any of the Buyers by any BC Entity or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. In addition, effective upon the filing of the 8-K Filing, each BC Party acknowledges and agrees that any and all confidentiality or similar obligations under any agreement, whether written or oral, between any BC Entity or any of their respective officers, directors, affiliates, employees or agents, on the one hand, and any of the Buyers or any of their affiliates, on the other hand, shall terminate.

(ii) Limitations on Disclosure. No BC Party shall, and the BC Parties shall cause each BC Entity and each of its and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents not to, provide any Buyer with any material, non-public information regarding any BC Entity from and after the date hereof without the express prior written consent of such Buyer (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion). In the event of a breach of any of the foregoing covenants, including, without limitation, Section 4(o) of this Agreement, or any of the covenants or agreements contained in any other Transaction Document, by any BC Entity, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees and agents (as determined in the reasonable good faith judgment of such Buyer), in addition to any other remedy provided herein or in the Transaction Documents, such Buyer shall have the right to make a public disclosure, in the

28

form of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of such breach or such material, non-public information, as applicable, (provided that each BC Entity shall be consulted by such Buyer in connection with any such press release or other public disclosure prior to its release). No Buyer shall have any liability to any BC Entity, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, stockholders or agents, for any such disclosure. To the extent that any BC Entity delivers any material, non-public information to a Buyer without such Buyer’s consent, each BC Party hereby covenants and agrees that such Buyer shall not have any duty of confidentiality with respect to, or a duty not to trade on the basis of, such material, non-public information. Subject to the foregoing, neither the BC Entities nor any Buyer shall issue any press releases or any other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, the Company shall be entitled, without the prior approval of any Buyer, to make the Press Release and any press release or other public disclosure with respect to such transactions (i) in substantial conformity with the 8-K Filing and contemporaneously therewith, (ii) in a Form S-4 registration statement with respect to the Business Combination, (iii) in investor presentations relating to or in connection with the Business Combination and (iv) as is required by applicable law and regulations (provided that in the case of clause (i) each Buyer shall be consulted by the Company in connection with any such press release or other public disclosure prior to its release). Without the prior written consent of the applicable Buyer (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion), the Company or the SPAC shall not (and shall cause each of their subsidiaries and affiliates to not) disclose the name of such Buyer in any filing, announcement, release or otherwise, except as required by the federal securities law or pursuant to other routine proceedings of regulatory authorities, or to the extent such disclosure is required by law, at the request of the staff of the SEC or regulatory agency or under the rules and regulations of the Principal Market or Eligible Market, as applicable, in which case the Company or the SPAC will provide the Buyer with prior written notice (including by e-mail) of such disclosure to the extent such announcements or other communications do not contain information previously disclosed in a public statement, press release or other communication that was approved by the Buyer in accordance with this Section 4(i). Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary and without implication that the contrary would otherwise be true, each BC Party expressly acknowledges and agrees that no Buyer shall have (unless expressly agreed to by a particular Buyer after the date hereof in a written definitive and binding agreement executed by the applicable BC Party and such particular Buyer (it being understood and agreed that no Buyer may bind any other Buyer with respect thereto)), any duty of confidentiality with respect to, or a duty not to trade on the basis of, any material, non-public information regarding any BC Entity.

(j) Additional Registration Statements. Until the Applicable Date (as defined below) and at any time thereafter while any Registration Statement is not effective or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use or any Current Public Information Failure (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) exists, no BC Party shall file a registration statement or an offering statement under the 1933 Act relating to securities that are not the Registrable Securities (other than a registration statement on Form S-4 with respect to the Business Combination, a registration statement on Form S-8, a registration statement filed pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement (as defined in the Notes), or such supplements or amendments the foregoing registration statements or to registration statements that are outstanding and have been declared effective by the SEC as of the date hereof (solely to the extent necessary to keep such registration statements effective and available and not with respect to any Subsequent Placement (as defined below))). “Applicable Date” means the earlier of (x) the first date on which the resale by the Buyers of all the Registrable Securities required to be filed on the initial Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement is declared effective by the SEC (and each prospectus contained therein is available for use on such date) or (y) the first date on which all of the Registrable Securities are eligible to be resold by the Buyers pursuant to Rule 144 (or, if a Current Public Information Failure has occurred and is continuing, such later date after which the Company has cured such Current Public Information Failure).

(k) Additional Issuance of Securities. So long as any Buyer beneficially owns any Notes or Warrants, the Company will not, without the prior written consent of the Required Holders, issue any Notes (other than to the Buyers as contemplated hereby) and the Company shall not issue any other securities that would cause a breach or default under the Notes or the Warrants.

(l) Reservation of Shares. So long as any of the Notes or Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall take all action necessary to at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance, no less than

29

the sum of (i) 100% of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all the Notes then outstanding (assuming for purposes hereof that (x) the Notes are convertible at the Alternate Conversion Price then in effect, (y) interest on the Notes shall accrue through the forty-five month anniversary of the Closing Date and will be converted in shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to the Alternate Conversion Price then in effect and (z) any such conversion shall not take into account any limitations on the conversion of the Notes set forth in the Notes), and (ii) the maximum number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of all the Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the Warrants set forth therein) (collectively, the “Required Reserve Amount”); provided that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock reserved pursuant to this Section 4(l) be reduced other than proportionally in connection with any conversion, exercise and/or redemption, as applicable of Notes and Warrants. If at any time the number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance is not sufficient to meet the Required Reserve Amount, the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares, including, without limitation, calling a special meeting of stockholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company’s obligations pursuant to the Transaction Documents, in the case of an insufficient number of authorized shares, obtain stockholder approval of an increase in such authorized number of shares, and voting the management shares of the Company in favor of an increase in the authorized shares of the Company to ensure that the number of authorized shares is sufficient to meet the Required Reserve Amount.

(m) Conduct of Business. The business of the BC Entities shall not be conducted in violation of any law, ordinance or regulation of any Governmental Entity, except where such violations would not reasonably be expected to result, either individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect.

(n) Other Notes; Variable Securities. So long as any Notes remain outstanding, each of the BC Entities shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any Subsequent Placement involving a Variable Rate Transaction (other than an equity line of credit provided by an investment bank or an “at-the-market” offering). “Variable Rate Transaction” means a transaction in which any BC Entity (i) issues or sells any Convertible Securities either (A) at a conversion, exercise or exchange rate or other price that is based upon and/or varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such Convertible Securities, or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such Convertible Securities or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of one or more BC Entities or the market for the Common Stock, other than pursuant to a customary “weighted average” anti-dilution provision or (ii) enters into any agreement (other than an equity line of credit provided by an investment bank or an “at-the-market” offering) whereby one or more BC Entities may sell securities at a future determined price (other than standard and customary “preemptive” or “participation” rights). Each Buyer shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against any BC Entity to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages. “Subsequent Placement” means any, direct or indirect, issuance, offer, sale, grant of any option or right to purchase, or otherwise dispose of (or announcement of any issuance, offer, sale, grant of any option or right to purchase or other disposition of) any equity security or any equity-linked or related security (including, without limitation, any “equity security” (as that term is defined under Rule 405 promulgated under the 1933 Act), any Convertible Securities (as defined below), any debt, any preferred stock or any purchase rights) of any BC Entity.

(o) Participation Right. At any time on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, no BC Entity shall, directly or indirectly, effect any Subsequent Placement unless the Company shall have first complied with this Section 4(o). The Company acknowledges and agrees that the right set forth in this Section 4(o) is a right granted by the Company, separately, to each Buyer.

(i) At least five (5) Trading Days prior to any proposed or intended Subsequent Placement, the Company shall deliver to each Buyer a written notice (each such notice, a “Pre-Notice”), which Pre-Notice shall not contain any information (including, without limitation, material, non-public information) other than: (A) if the proposed Offer Notice (as defined below) constitutes or contains material, non-public information, a statement asking whether the Investor is willing to accept material non-public information or (B) if the proposed Offer Notice does not constitute or contain material, non-public information, (x) a statement that the Company proposes or intends to effect a Subsequent Placement, (y) a statement that the statement in clause (x) above does not constitute material, non-public information and (z) a statement

30

informing such Buyer that it is entitled to receive an Offer Notice (as defined below) with respect to such Subsequent Placement upon its written request. Upon the written request of a Buyer within three (3) Trading Days after the Company’s delivery to such Buyer of such Pre-Notice, and only upon a written request by such Buyer, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one (1) Trading Day after such request, deliver to such Buyer an irrevocable written notice (the “Offer Notice”) of any proposed or intended issuance or sale or exchange (the “Offer”) of the securities being offered (the “Offered Securities”) in a Subsequent Placement, which Offer Notice shall (A) identify and describe the Offered Securities, (B) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the Offered Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (C) identify the Persons (if known) to which or with which the Offered Securities are to be offered, issued, sold or exchanged and (D) offer to issue and sell to or exchange with such Buyer in accordance with the terms of the Offer such Buyer’s pro rata portion of 5% of the Offered Securities, provided that the number of Offered Securities which such Buyer shall have the right to subscribe for under this Section 4(o) shall be (x) based on such Buyer’s pro rata portion of the aggregate original principal amount of the Notes purchased hereunder by all Buyers (the “Basic Amount”), and (y) with respect to each Buyer that elects to purchase its Basic Amount, any additional portion of the Offered Securities attributable to the Basic Amounts of other Buyers as such Buyer shall indicate it will purchase or acquire should the other Buyers subscribe for less than their Basic Amounts (the “Undersubscription Amount”), which process shall be repeated until each Buyer shall have an opportunity to subscribe for any remaining Undersubscription Amount.

(ii) To accept an Offer, in whole or in part, such Buyer must deliver a written notice to the Company prior to the end of the fifth (5th) Business Day after such Buyer’s receipt of the Offer Notice (the “Offer Period”), setting forth the portion of such Buyer’s Basic Amount that such Buyer elects to purchase and, if such Buyer shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, the Undersubscription Amount, if any, that such Buyer elects to purchase (in either case, the “Notice of Acceptance”). If the Basic Amounts subscribed for by all Buyers are less than the total of all of the Basic Amounts, then each Buyer who has set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of Acceptance shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts subscribed for, the Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed for; provided, however, if the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for exceed the difference between the total of all the Basic Amounts and the Basic Amounts subscribed for (the “Available Undersubscription Amount”), each Buyer who has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount shall be entitled to purchase only that portion of the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Basic Amount of such Buyer bears to the total Basic Amounts of all Buyers that have subscribed for Undersubscription Amounts, subject to rounding by the Company to the extent it deems reasonably necessary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company desires to modify or amend the terms and conditions of the Offer prior to the expiration of the Offer Period, the Company may deliver to each Buyer a new Offer Notice and the Offer Period shall expire on the fifth (5th) Business Day after such Buyer’s receipt of such new Offer Notice.

(iii) The Company shall have five (5) Business Days from the expiration of the Offer Period above (A) to offer, issue, sell or exchange all or any part of such Offered Securities as to which a Notice of Acceptance has not been given by a Buyer (the “Refused Securities”) pursuant to a definitive agreement(s) (the “Subsequent Placement Agreement”), but only to the offerees described in the Offer Notice (if so described therein) and only upon terms and conditions (including, without limitation, unit prices and interest rates) that are not more favorable to the acquiring Person or Persons or less favorable to the Company than those set forth in the Offer Notice and (B) to publicly announce (x) the execution of such Subsequent Placement Agreement, and (y) either (I) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such Subsequent Placement Agreement or (II) the termination of such Subsequent Placement Agreement, which shall be filed with the SEC on a Current Report on Form 8-K with such Subsequent Placement Agreement and any documents contemplated therein filed as exhibits thereto.

(iv) In the event the Company shall propose to sell less than all the Refused Securities (any such sale to be in the manner and on the terms specified in Section 4(o)(iii) above), then each Buyer may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, withdraw its Notice of Acceptance or reduce the number or amount of the Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance to an amount that shall be not less than the number or amount of the Offered Securities that such Buyer elected to purchase pursuant to Section 4(o)(ii) above multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of Offered Securities the Company actually proposes to issue, sell or exchange (including Offered Securities to be issued or sold

31

to Buyers pursuant to this Section 4(o) prior to such reduction) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the original amount of the Offered Securities. In the event that any Buyer so elects to reduce the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not issue, sell or exchange more than the reduced number or amount of the Offered Securities unless and until such securities have again been offered to the Buyers in accordance with Section 4(o)(i) above.

(v) Upon the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the Refused Securities, such Buyer shall acquire from the Company, and the Company shall issue to such Buyer, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to Section 4(o)(iv) above if such Buyer has so elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer. The purchase by such Buyer of any Offered Securities is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company and such Buyer of a separate purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to such Buyer and its counsel.

(vi) Any Offered Securities not acquired by a Buyer or other Persons in accordance with this Section 4(o) may not be issued, sold or exchanged until they are again offered to such Buyer under the procedures specified in this Agreement.

(vii) The Company and each Buyer agree that if any Buyer elects to participate in the Offer, (x) neither the Subsequent Placement Agreement with respect to such Offer nor any other transaction documents related thereto (collectively, the “Subsequent Placement Documents”) shall include any term or provision whereby such Buyer shall be required to agree to any restrictions on trading as to any securities of the Company or be required to consent to any amendment to or termination of, or grant any waiver, release or the like under or in connection with, any agreement previously entered into with the Company or any instrument received from the Company, and (y) any registration rights set forth in such Subsequent Placement Documents shall be similar in all material respects to the registration rights contained in the Registration Rights Agreement.

(viii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4(o) and unless otherwise agreed to by such Buyer, the Company shall either confirm in writing to such Buyer that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Placement has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the Offered Securities, in either case, in such a manner such that such Buyer will not be in possession of any material, non-public information, by the fifth (5th) Business Day following delivery of the Offer Notice. If by such fifth (5th) Business Day, no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Offered Securities has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by such Buyer, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and such Buyer shall not be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Should the Company decide to pursue such transaction with respect to the Offered Securities, the Company shall provide such Buyer with another Offer Notice and such Buyer will again have the right of participation set forth in this Section 4(o). The Company shall not be permitted to deliver more than one such Offer Notice to such Buyer in any sixty (60) day period, except as expressly contemplated by the last sentence of Section 4(o)(ii).

(ix) The restrictions contained in this Section 4(o) shall not apply in connection with the issuance of any Excluded Securities (as defined in the Notes). The Company shall not circumvent the provisions of this Section 4(o) by providing terms or conditions to one Buyer that are not provided to all.

(p) Dilutive Issuances. For so long as any Notes or Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall not, in any manner, enter into or affect any Dilutive Issuance (as defined in the Notes) if the effect of such Dilutive Issuance is to cause the Company to be required to issue upon conversion of any Notes or exercise of any Warrant any shares of Common Stock in excess of that number of shares of Common Stock which the Company may issue upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants without breaching the Company’s obligations under the rules or regulations of the Principal Market.

(q) Passive Foreign Investment Company. Following the closing of the Business Combination, the Company shall conduct its business, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to conduct their respective businesses, in such a manner as will ensure that the Company will not be deemed to constitute a passive foreign investment company within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Code.

32

(t) Stock Splits. Until the Notes and all notes issued pursuant to the terms thereof are no longer outstanding, the Company shall not effect any stock combination, reverse stock split or other similar transaction (or make any public announcement or disclosure with respect to any of the foregoing) without the prior written consent of the Required Holders (as defined below); provided, however, that the Company may effect one (1) stock combination, reverse stock split or other similar transaction if necessary to comply with the requirements of the Principal Market without the prior written consent of the Required Holders.

(u) Conversion and Exercise Procedures. Each of the form of Exercise Notice (as defined in the Warrants) included in the Warrants and the form of Conversion Notice (as defined in the Notes) included in the Notes set forth the totality of the procedures required of the Buyers in order to exercise the Warrants or convert the Notes. Except as provided in Section 5(d), no additional legal opinion, other information or instructions shall be required of the Buyers to exercise their Warrants or convert their Notes. The Company shall honor exercises of the Warrants and conversions of the Notes and shall deliver the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms, conditions and time periods set forth in the Notes and Warrants.

(v) Collateral Agent. Each Buyer hereby (i) appoints Allegro Management LLC, as the collateral agent hereunder and under the other Security Documents (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”), and (ii) authorizes the Collateral Agent (and its officers, directors, employees and agents) to take such action on such Buyer’s behalf in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. The Collateral Agent shall not have, by reason hereof or any of the other Security Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Buyer. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall have any liability to any Buyer for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection hereof or any other Security Document except to the extent caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, and each Buyer agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral Agent and all of its officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the “Collateral Agent Indemnitees”) from and against any losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) incurred by such Collateral Agent Indemnitee, whether direct, indirect or consequential, arising from or in connection with the performance by such Collateral Agent Indemnitee of the duties and obligations of Collateral Agent pursuant hereto or any of the Security Documents. The Collateral Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Holders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all holders of Notes; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action which, in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent, exposes the Collateral Agent to liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or applicable law. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.

(w) Successor Collateral Agent.

(i) The Collateral Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents at any time by giving at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior written notice to the Company and each holder of Notes. Such resignation shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor Collateral Agent of appointment pursuant to clauses (ii) and (iii) below or as otherwise provided below. If at any time the Collateral Agent (together with its affiliates) beneficially owns less than $100,000 in aggregate principal amount of Notes, the Required Holders may, by written consent, remove the Collateral Agent from all its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents.

33

(ii) Upon any such notice of resignation or removal, the Required Holders shall appoint a successor collateral agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor agent, such successor collateral agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the collateral agent, and the Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. After the Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as the collateral agent, the provisions of this Section 4(w) shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

(iii) If a successor collateral agent shall not have been so appointed within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of a written notice of resignation or removal, the Collateral Agent shall then appoint a successor collateral agent who shall serve as the Collateral Agent until such time, if any, as the Required Holders appoint a successor collateral agent as provided above.

(iv) In the event that a successor Collateral Agent is appointed pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4(w) that is not a Buyer or an affiliate of any Buyer (or the Required Holders or the Collateral Agent (or its successor), as applicable, notify the Company that they or it wants to appoint such a successor Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Section 4(w)), the Company and each Subsidiary thereof covenants and agrees to promptly take all actions reasonably requested by the Required Holders or the Collateral Agent (or its successor), as applicable, from time to time, to secure a successor Collateral Agent reasonably satisfactory to the requesting part(y)(ies), in their sole discretion, including, without limitation, by paying all reasonable and customary fees and expenses of such successor Collateral Agent, by having the Company and each Subsidiary thereof agree to indemnify any successor Collateral Agent pursuant to reasonable and customary terms and by each of the Company and each Subsidiary thereof executing a collateral agency agreement or similar agreement and/or any amendment to the Security Documents reasonably requested or required by the successor Collateral Agent.

(x) Regulation M. The Company will not take any action prohibited by Regulation M under the 1934 Act, in connection with the distribution of the Securities contemplated hereby.

(y) General Solicitation.

(z) Integration. None of the Company, any of its affiliates (as defined in Rule 501(b) under the 1933 Act), or any person acting on behalf of the Company or such affiliate will sell, offer for sale, or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in the 1933 Act) which will be integrated with the sale of the Securities in a manner which would require the registration of the Securities under the 1933 Act or require stockholder approval under the rules and regulations of the Principal Market and the Company will take all action that is appropriate or necessary to assure that its offerings of other securities will not be integrated for purposes of the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations of the Principal Market, with the issuance of Securities contemplated hereby.

(aa) Notice of Disqualification Events. The Company will notify the Buyers in writing, prior to the Closing Date of (i) any Disqualification Event relating to any Issuer Covered Person and (ii) any event that would, with the passage of time, become a Disqualification Event relating to any Issuer Covered Person.

(bb) Subsidiary Guarantee. For so long as any Notes remain outstanding, upon any entity becoming a direct, or indirect, Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) of the Company, the Company shall cause each such Subsidiary (other than any Excluded Subsidiary) to become party to the Guaranty by executing a joinder to the Guaranty reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Required Holders.

(cc) No Waiver of Lock-Up Provision of Investor Rights Agreement. Following the closing of the Business Combination, neither Company, nor the Target, shall amend, waive, modify or fail to use best efforts to enforce the lock-up provision of the Investor Rights Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, no Buyer shall be a third party beneficiary of the Investor Rights Agreement.

34

(dd) Restrictions on Short Sales. Each Buyer, severally and not jointly, agrees that, until the six month anniversary of the Closing Date, such Buyer shall not engage in any Short Sales or establish any Put Equivalent Position of the securities of the SPAC or the Company and, from and after the six month anniversary of the Closing Date, such Buyer shall not engage in any Short Sales (excluding any sales of Common Stock then held by such Buyer at a time such Buyer has an existing “short” position) or establish any Put Equivalent Position of the securities of the Company, as applicable, at a time the VWAP of the Common Stock is less than $10.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations and similar events).

(ee) Transfer Taxes All stock transfer or other similar taxes (other than income or similar taxes) which are required to be paid in connection with the issuance, sale and transfer of the Securities to be sold to each Buyer hereunder shall be fully paid by the Company.

5. REGISTER; TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS; LEGEND.

(a) Register. The Company shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to each holder of Securities), a register for the Notes and the Warrants in which the Company shall record the name and address of the Person in whose name the Notes and the Warrants have been issued (including the name and address of each transferee), the principal amount of the Notes held by such Person, the number of Conversion Shares issuable pursuant to the terms of the Notes and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants held by such Person. The Company shall keep the register open and available at all times during business hours for inspection of any Buyer or its legal representatives.

(b) Transfer Agent Instructions. The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent and any subsequent transfer agent (as applicable, the “Transfer Agent”) in a form acceptable to each of the Buyers (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”) to issue certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), registered in the name of each Buyer or its respective nominee(s), for the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares in such amounts as specified from time to time by each Buyer to the Company upon conversion of the Notes or the exercise of the Warrants (as the case may be) upon effectiveness of the Registration Statement or resale in accordance with Rule 144, as applicable. The Company represents and warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 5(b), and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 2(g) hereof, will be given by the Company to its transfer agent with respect to the Securities, and that the Securities shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company, as applicable, to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. If a Buyer effects a sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities in accordance with Section 2(g), the Company shall permit the transfer and shall promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC in such name and in such denominations as specified by such Buyer to effect such sale, transfer or assignment. In the event that such sale, assignment or transfer involves Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement or in compliance with Rule 144, the transfer agent shall issue such shares to such Buyer, assignee or transferee (as the case may be) without any restrictive legend in accordance with Section 5(d) below. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to a Buyer. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 5(b) will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 5(b), that a Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. The Company shall cause its counsel to issue the legal opinion referred to in the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions to the Company’s transfer agent on each Effective Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement). Any fees (with respect to the transfer agent, counsel to the Company or otherwise) associated with the issuance of such opinion or the removal of any legends on any of the Securities shall be borne by the Company.

35

(c) Legends. Each Buyer understands that the Securities have been issued (or will be issued in the case of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares) pursuant to an exemption from registration or qualification under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws, and except as set forth below, the Securities shall bear any legend as required by the “blue sky” laws of any state and a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such stock certificates):

[NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE [CONVERTIBLE] [EXERCISABLE] HAVE BEEN][THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN] REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE HOLDER (IF REQUESTED BY THE COMPANY), IN A FORM REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD OR ELIGIBLE TO BE SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.

(d) Removal of Legends. Certificates evidencing Securities shall not be required to contain the legend set forth in Section 5(c) above or any other legend (i) while a registration statement (including a Registration Statement) covering the resale of such Securities is effective under the 1933 Act, (ii) following any sale of such Securities pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming the transferor is not an affiliate of the Company), (iii) if such Securities are eligible to be sold, assigned or transferred under Rule 144 (provided that a Buyer and its broker provide the Company with customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company and its transfer agent, which shall not include an opinion of Buyer’s counsel), (iv) in connection with a sale, assignment or other transfer (other than under Rule 144), provided that such Buyer provides the Company with an opinion of counsel to such Buyer, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities may be made without registration under the applicable requirements of the 1933 Act or (v) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the 1933 Act (including, without limitation, controlling judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the SEC). If a legend is not required pursuant to the foregoing, the Company shall no later than two (2) Trading Days (or such earlier date as required pursuant to the 1934 Act or other applicable law, rule or regulation for the settlement of a trade initiated on the date such Buyer delivers such legended certificate representing such Securities to the Company) following the delivery by a Buyer to the Company or the transfer agent (with notice to the Company) of a legended certificate representing such Securities (endorsed or with stock powers attached, signatures guaranteed, and otherwise in form necessary to affect the reissuance and/or transfer, if applicable), together with any other deliveries from such Buyer as may be required above in this Section 5(d), as directed by such Buyer, either: (A) provided that the Company’s transfer agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (“FAST”) and such Securities are Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, credit the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which such Buyer shall be entitled to such Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system or (B) if the Company’s transfer agent is not participating in FAST, issue and deliver (via reputable overnight courier) to such Buyer, a certificate representing such Securities that is free from all restrictive and other legends, registered in the name of such Buyer or its designee (the date by which such credit is so required to be made to the balance account of such Buyer’s or such Buyer’s designee with DTC or such certificate is required to be delivered to such Buyer pursuant to the foregoing is referred to herein as the “Required Delivery Date”, and the date such shares of Common Stock are actually delivered without restrictive legend to such Buyer or such Buyer’s designee with DTC, as applicable, the “Share Delivery Date”). The Company shall be responsible for any transfer agent fees or DTC fees with respect to any issuance of Securities or the removal of any legends with respect to any Securities in accordance herewith.

(e) Failure to Timely Deliver; Buy-In. If the Company fails, for any reason or for no reason, to issue and deliver (or cause to be delivered) to a Buyer (or its designee) by the Required Delivery Date, either (I) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, a certificate for the number of Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) to which such Buyer is entitled and register such Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (as

36

the case may be) on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in FAST, to credit the balance account of such Buyer or such Buyer’s designee with DTC for such number of Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) submitted for legend removal by such Buyer pursuant to Section 5(d) above or (II) if the Registration Statement covering the resale of the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) submitted for legend removal by such Buyer pursuant to Section 5(d) above (the “Unavailable Shares”) is not available for the resale of such Unavailable Shares and the Company fails to promptly, but in no event later than as required pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement (x) so notify such Buyer and (y) deliver the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable, electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) submitted for legend removal by such Buyer pursuant to Section 5(d) above to such Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian system (the event described in the immediately foregoing clause (II) is hereinafter referred as a “Notice Failure” and together with the event described in clause (I) above, a “Delivery Failure”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to such Buyer, the Company shall pay in cash to such Buyer on each day after the Share Delivery Date and during such Delivery Failure an amount equal to 2% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock not issued to such Buyer on or prior to the Required Delivery Date and to which such Buyer is entitled, and (B) any trading price of the Common Stock selected by such Buyer in writing as in effect at any time during the period beginning on the date of the delivery by such Buyer to the Company of the applicable Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) and ending on the applicable Share Delivery Date. In addition to the foregoing, if on or prior to the Required Delivery Date either (I) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, the Company shall fail to issue and deliver a certificate to a Buyer and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in FAST, credit the balance account of such Buyer or such Buyer’s designee with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such Buyer submitted for legend removal by such Buyer pursuant to Section 5(d) above (ii) below or (II) a Notice Failure occurs, and if on or after such Trading Day such Buyer acquires (in an open market transaction, stock loan or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Buyer of shares of Common Stock submitted for legend removal by such Buyer pursuant to Section 5(d) above that such Buyer is entitled to receive from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within two (2) Trading Days after such Buyer’s request and in such Buyer’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to such Buyer in an amount equal to such Buyer’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, stock loan costs and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so acquired (including, without limitation, by any other Person in respect, or on behalf, of such Buyer) (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to so deliver such certificate or credit such Buyer’s balance account shall terminate and such shares shall be cancelled, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to so deliver to such Buyer a certificate or certificates or credit the balance account of such Buyer or such Buyer’s designee with DTC representing such number of shares of Common Stock that would have been so delivered if the Company timely complied with its obligations hereunder and pay cash to such Buyer in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) that the Company was required to deliver to such Buyer by the Required Delivery Date multiplied by (B) the lowest Closing Sale Price (as defined in the Warrants) of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date of the delivery by such Buyer to the Company of the applicable Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (as the case may be) and ending on the date of such delivery and payment under this clause (ii). Nothing shall limit such Buyer’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock (or to electronically deliver such shares of Common Stock) as required pursuant to the terms hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any given Notice Failure and/or Delivery Failure, this Section 5(e) shall not apply to the applicable Buyer the extent the Company has already paid such amounts in full to such Buyer with respect to such Notice Failure and/or Delivery Failure, as applicable, pursuant to the analogous sections of the Note or Warrant, as applicable, held by such Buyer.

(f) FAST Compliance. While any Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall maintain a transfer agent that participates in FAST.

8. TERMINATION.

This Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect with respect to a Buyer, and all rights and obligations of such Buyer and each of the BC Parties with respect to such Buyer hereunder, shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any of such Persons in respect thereof, upon the earliest to occur of (a) such date and time as the Business Combination Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of such Buyer and each of the BC Parties to terminate this Agreement with respect to such Buyer and (c) the delivery of a notice of termination of this Agreement by such Buyer to each of the BC Parties at any time following August 13, 2024 (the “Outside Date”) if the Closing has not occurred by the Outside Date; provided, however, (i) the right of a Buyer to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8 shall not be available to such Buyer if the failure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to have been consummated by the Outside Date was proximately caused by such Buyer’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations in this Agreement (or if an affiliate of such Buyer is also a Buyer, such affiliate Buyer's breach of any of its covenants or obligations under this Agreement), either individually or in the aggregate, and (ii) the abandonment of the sale and purchase of the Notes and the Warrants upon termination pursuant to clauses (b) or (c) of this Section 8 shall be applicable only to such Buyer that enters into such mutual agreement to terminate or provides such written notice, provided further that no such termination shall affect any obligation of the Company under this Agreement to reimburse the lead Buyer for the expenses described in Section 4(g) above. Nothing contained in this Section shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any willful and material breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents prior to the time of termination or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or to pursue any other remedy available at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from any such willful and material breach.

9. MISCELLANEOUS.

(a) Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. Each of the BC Parties hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or under any of the other Transaction Documents or with any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that such suit, action or proceeding may not be brought or maintained in any such court, that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude any Buyer from bringing suit or taking other legal action against any BC Party in any other jurisdiction to collect on any BC Party’s obligations to such Buyer or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of such Buyer. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A

41

JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM RELATING THERETO. IF THE SUBJECT MATTER OF ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE IS ONE IN WHICH THE WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL IS PROHIBITED, NO PARTY HERETO NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL ASSERT IN SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE A NONCOMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. FURTHERMORE, NO PARTY HERETO NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE WITH A SEPARATE ACTION OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE WAIVED. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (II) SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (III) SUCH PARTY MAKES THE FOREGOING WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

(b) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

(c) Headings; Gender. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision in which they are found, unless otherwise explicitly specified herein.

(d) Severability; Maximum Payment Amounts. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (and without implication that the following is required or applicable), it is the intention of the parties that in no event shall amounts and value paid by the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries (as the case may be), or payable to or received by any of the Buyers, under the Transaction Documents (including without limitation, any amounts that would be characterized as “interest” under applicable law) exceed amounts permitted under any applicable law. Accordingly, if any obligation to pay, payment made to any Buyer, or collection by any Buyer pursuant the Transaction Documents is finally judicially determined to be contrary to any such applicable law, such obligation to pay, payment or collection shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of such Buyer, the Company and its Subsidiaries and such amount shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by the applicable

42

law. Such adjustment shall be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing or refunding, at the option of such Buyer, the amount of interest or any other amounts which would constitute unlawful amounts required to be paid or actually paid to such Buyer under the Transaction Documents. For greater certainty, to the extent that any interest, charges, fees, expenses or other amounts required to be paid to or received by such Buyer under any of the Transaction Documents or related thereto are held to be within the meaning of “interest” or another applicable term to otherwise be violative of applicable law, such amounts shall be pro-rated over the period of time to which they relate.

(e) Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between the Buyers, any BC Entity, their affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf, including, without limitation, any transactions by any Buyer with respect to Common Stock or the Securities, and the other matters contained herein and therein, and this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein contain the entire understanding of the parties solely with respect to the matters covered herein and therein; provided, however, nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall (or shall be deemed to) (i) have any effect on any agreements any Buyer has entered into with, or any instruments any Buyer has received from, any BC Entity prior to the date hereof with respect to any prior investment made by such Buyer in any BC Entity or (ii) waive, alter, modify or amend in any respect any obligations of any BC Entity, or any rights of or benefits to any Buyer or any other Person, in any agreement entered into prior to the date hereof between or among any BC Entity and any Buyer, or any instruments any Buyer received from any BC Entity prior to the date hereof, in each case, unrelated to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and all such agreements and instruments shall continue in full force and effect. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents supersede any legally binding terms set forth in that certain “Financing Term Sheet: Secured Convertible Promissory Note” signed by the Target and the lead buyer. Except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither any BC Party nor any Buyer makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. For clarification purposes, the Recitals are part of this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the BC Parties and the Required Holders (as defined below), and any amendment to any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 9(e) shall be binding on all Buyers and holders of Securities, as applicable; provided that no such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it (A) applies to less than all of the holders of the Securities then outstanding or (B) imposes any obligation or liability on any Buyer without such Buyer’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion); and provided further that the provisions of Sections 4(v) and 4(w) above cannot be amended or waived without the additional prior written approval of the Collateral Agent or its successor. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party, provided that the Required Holders may waive any provision of this Agreement, and any waiver of any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 9(e) shall be binding on all Buyers and holders of Securities, as applicable, provided that no such waiver shall be effective to the extent that it (1) applies to less than all of the holders of the Securities then outstanding (unless a party gives a waiver as to itself only) or (2) imposes any obligation or liability on any Buyer without such Buyer’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion). No consideration (other than reimbursement of legal fees) shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents, all holders of the Notes or all holders of the Warrants (as the case may be). From the date hereof and while any Notes or Warrants are outstanding, no BC Entity shall be permitted to receive any consideration from a Buyer or a holder of Notes or Warrants that is not otherwise contemplated by the Transaction Documents in order to, directly or indirectly, induce any BC Entity (i) to treat such Buyer or holder of Notes or Warrants in a manner that is more favorable than to other similarly situated Buyers or holders of Notes or Warrants, as applicable, or (ii) to treat any Buyer(s) or holder(s) of Notes or Warrants in a manner that is less favorable than the Buyer or holder of Notes or Warrants that is paying such consideration; provided, however, that the determination of whether a Buyer has been treated more or less favorably than another Buyer shall disregard any securities of the Company purchased or sold by any Buyer. No BC Entity has, directly or indirectly, made any agreements with any Buyers relating to the terms or conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents except as set forth in the Transaction Documents.

43

Without limiting the foregoing, each BC Party confirms that, except as set forth in this Agreement, no Buyer (other than the Bridge Buyer) has made any commitment or promise or has any other obligation to provide any financing to any BC Entity or otherwise. As a material inducement for each Buyer to enter into this Agreement, each BC Party expressly acknowledges and agrees that (x) no due diligence or other investigation or inquiry conducted by a Buyer, any of its advisors or any of its representatives shall affect such Buyer’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, such BC Party’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (y) unless a provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document is expressly preceded by the phrase “except as disclosed in the SEC Documents,” nothing contained in any of the SEC Documents shall affect such Buyer’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, such BC Party’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. “Required Holders” means (I) prior to the Closing Date, each Buyer entitled to purchase Notes at the Closing and (II) on or after the Closing Date, each of Allegro Opportunities LLC and the Bridge Buyer.

(f) Notices. Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by electronic mail (provided that such sent email is kept on file (whether electronically or otherwise) by the sending party and the sending party does not receive an automatically generated message from the recipient’s email server that such e-mail could not be delivered to such recipient); or (iii) one (1) Business Day after deposit with an overnight courier service with next day delivery specified, in each case, properly addressed to the party to receive the same. The mailing addresses and e-mail addresses for such communications shall be:

(g) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns, including any purchasers of any of the Notes and Warrants. No BC Party shall assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Required Holders, including, without limitation, by way of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Warrants) (unless the Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental Transactions set forth in the Warrants) or a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Notes) (unless the Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental Transactions set forth in the Notes). Prior to the Closing, the Bridge Buyer may assign and transfer its rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the purchase of any or all Securities, which would otherwise be purchased by the

46

Bridge Buyer, to any other Person (each a “Permitted Assignee”), provided that the Bridge Buyer shall remain obligated to purchase such assigned Securities upon any breach by any such Permitted Assignee hereunder. Upon such an assignment, the Schedule of Buyers shall be revised to reflect such assignment. A Buyer may assign some or all of its rights and obligations hereunder in connection with any transfer of any of its Securities without the consent of but upon written notice (delivered promptly after the consummation of such assignment or transfer) to any BC Party and in compliance with any restrictions, limitations, requirements or procedures relating to any such transfer contained in this agreement or any Transaction Document, in which event such assignee shall be deemed to be a Buyer hereunder with respect to such assigned rights.

(h) No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, other than the Indemnitees referred to in Section 9(k).

(i) Survival. The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants shall survive the Closing. Each Buyer shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder.

(j) Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(k) Indemnification. In consideration of each Buyer’s execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of each BC Party’s other obligations under the Transaction Documents, each BC Party, severally, shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each Buyer and each holder of any Securities that is party to this Agreement and all of their stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing Persons’ agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by any BC Entity in any of the Transaction Documents, (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of any BC Entity contained in any of the Transaction Documents or (iii) any cause of action, suit, proceeding or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of any BC Entity) or which otherwise involves such Indemnitee that arises out of or results from (A) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents, (B) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, (C) any disclosure properly made by such Buyer pursuant to Section 4(i), or (D) the status of such Buyer or holder of the Securities either as an investor in any BC Entity pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or as a party to this Agreement (including, without limitation, as a party in interest or otherwise in any action or proceeding for injunctive or other equitable relief); provided, that in no event shall the Indemnified Liabilities include any actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities or damages or expenses to the extent arising from, resulting from or relating to any conduct by any Buyer which is finally judicially determined to constitute fraud. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by a BC Entity may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the mechanics and procedures with respect to the rights and obligations under this Section 9(k) shall be the same as those set forth in Section 6 of the Registration Rights Agreement.

(l) Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. No specific representation or warranty shall limit the generality or applicability of a more general representation or warranty. Each and every reference to share prices, shares of Common Stock and any other numbers in this Agreement that relate to the Common Stock shall be automatically adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations or other similar transactions that occur with respect to the Common Stock after the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for the avoidance

47

of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty against, or a prohibition of, any actions with respect to the borrowing of, arrangement to borrow, identification of the availability of, and/or securing of, securities of the Company in order for such Buyer (or its broker or other financial representative) to effect short sales or similar transactions in the future.

(m) Remedies. Each Buyer and in the event of assignment by Buyer of its rights and obligations hereunder, each holder of Securities, shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holders have under any law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law. Furthermore, each party hereto recognizes that in the event that such party fails to perform, observe, or discharge any or all of its obligations under this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, any remedy at law may be inadequate relief to one or more other parties hereto. Each party hereto therefore agrees that each party hereto shall be entitled to specific performance and/or temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security. The remedies provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief).

(n) Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents, whenever any Buyer exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and any BC Entity does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Buyer may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to such applicable BC Entity, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.

(o) Payment Set Aside; Currency. To the extent that a BC Entity makes a payment or payments to any Buyer hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents or any of the Buyers enforce or exercise their rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to such BC Entity, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, foreign, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred. Unless otherwise expressly indicated, all dollar amounts referred to in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are in United States Dollars (“U.S. Dollars”), and all amounts owing under this Agreement and all other Transaction Documents shall be paid in U.S. Dollars. All amounts denominated in other currencies (if any) shall be converted into the U.S. Dollar equivalent amount in accordance with the Exchange Rate on the date of calculation. “Exchange Rate”means, in relation to any amount of currency to be converted into U.S. Dollars pursuant to this Agreement, the U.S. Dollar exchange rate as published in the Wall Street Journal on the relevant date of calculation.

(p) Judgment Currency.

(i) If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any BC Entity in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in any court in any jurisdiction it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this Section 9(p) referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in US Dollars under this Agreement, the conversion shall be made at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Trading Day immediately preceding:

(1) the date actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of New York or in the courts of any other jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date: or

48

(2) the date on which the foreign court determines, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Section 9(p)(i)(2) being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

(ii) If in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in Section 9(p)(i)(2) above, there is a change in the Exchange Rate prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the applicable party shall pay such adjusted amount as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of US Dollars which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date.

(iii) Any amount due from any BC Entity under this provision shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

(q) Independent Nature of Buyers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Buyer under the Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Buyer, and no Buyer shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Buyer under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Buyer pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Buyers as, and each BC Party acknowledges that the Buyers do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity, or create a presumption that the Buyers are in any way acting in concert or as a group or entity, and no BC Entity shall assert any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or any matters, and each BC Party acknowledges that the Buyers are not acting in concert or as a group, and no BC Entity shall assert any such claim, with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The decision of each Buyer to purchase Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Buyer independently of any other Buyer. Each Buyer acknowledges that no other Buyer has acted as agent for such Buyer in connection with such Buyer making its investment hereunder and that no other Buyer will be acting as agent of such Buyer in connection with monitoring such Buyer’s investment in the Securities or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents. Each BC Party and each Buyer confirms that each Buyer has independently participated with the BC Entities in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Each Buyer shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Buyer to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The use of a single agreement to effectuate the purchase and sale of the Securities contemplated hereby was solely in the control of the BC Parties, not the action or decision of any Buyer, and was done solely for the convenience of the BC Entities and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Buyer. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between applicable BC Entities and a Buyer, solely, and not between the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Buyers collectively and not between and among the Buyers.

SENIOR SECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTE

Issuance Date: [•] 2024__ Original Principal Amount: U.S. $[•]

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Aja Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby promises to pay [BUYER] or its registered assigns (“Holder”) the amount set forth above as the Original Principal Amount (as reduced pursuant to the terms hereof pursuant to redemption, conversion or otherwise, the “Principal”) when due, whether upon the Maturity Date, or upon acceleration, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms hereof) and to pay interest (“Interest”) on any outstanding Principal at the applicable Interest Rate (as defined below) from the date set forth above as the Issuance Date (the “IssuanceDate”) until the same becomes due and payable, whether upon the Maturity Date or upon acceleration, conversion, redemption or otherwise (in each case in accordance with the terms hereof). This Senior Secured Convertible Note (including all Senior Secured Convertible Notes issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, this “Note”) is one of an issue of Senior Secured Convertible Notes issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of February [ ], 2024 (the “Subscription Date”), by and among the Company and the investors (the “Buyers”) referred to therein, as amended from time to time (collectively, the “Notes”, and such other Senior Secured Convertible Notes, the “OtherNotes”). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 32.

1. PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL. On the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash representing all outstanding Principal and accrued and unpaid Interest on such Principal and Interest. The Company may prepay/redeem pursuant to a Company Optional Redemption, all or any portion of the outstanding Principal, or accrued and unpaid Interest, if any, in accordance with the terms hereof.

2. INTEREST; INTEREST RATE.

(a) Interest on the Principal of this Note outstanding from time to time shall commence accruing at the Interest Rate on the Issuance Date and shall be computed on the basis of a 365/366-day year. On the first Trading Day of each Fiscal Quarter (each, an “Interest Date”), any accrued and unpaid Interest shall, at the Company’s option, either be (i) paid in cash to the Holder (a “Cash Interest Payment”) or (ii) compound and become additional Principal outstanding hereunder as of such Interest Date (each, a “Quarterly Compounding”). The Company may elect to effect a Cash Interest Payment with respect to an Interest Date by delivering to the Holder

57

a written notice (each, an “Cash Interest Election Notice”) on or prior to the fifth (5th) Trading Day immediately prior to such applicable Interest Date (the “Interest Election Deadline”) electing to pay such Interest, in whole, or in part, in cash as specified in such Cash Interest Election Notice. If the Company fails to deliver a Cash Interest Election Notice to the Holder on or prior to the applicable Interest Date (or such Cash Interest Election Notice elects in part, to pay such Interest in cash), such Interest (or such unpaid portion of Interest on such Interest Date, as applicable) shall be subject to Quarterly Compounding on such Interest Date.

(b) Prior to a Cash Interest Payment and/or Quarterly Compounding, as applicable, Interest shall also be payable by way of inclusion of the Interest in the Conversion Amounton each Conversion Date in accordance with Section 3(b)(i) or upon any redemption in accordance with Section 12 or any required payment upon any Bankruptcy Event of Default. From and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Interest Rate shall, (i) in the case of a Payment Event of Default or a Bankruptcy Event of Default, automatically, and (ii) in the case of any other Event of Default, upon prior written notice by the Holders to so increase, be increased by two percent (2.0%) per annum to a total effective rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum (the “Default Rate”). For the avoidance of doubt, at any time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder, notwithstanding that all, or any part, of this Note is subject to redemption and/or conversion hereunder, all of the Conversion Amount of this Note (including, without limitation, such portion of the Conversion Amount of this Note then subject to a redemption and/or conversion hereunder, as applicable) shall continue to accrue Interest hereunder at the Default Rate, and such Interest shall only cease to accrue hereunder with respect to such underlying Conversion Amount subject to such redemption and/or conversion, as applicable, at the time the Company has paid the applicable Redemption Price with respect to such redemption and/or delivered the required shares of Common Stock due hereunder with respect to such conversion, as applicable. In the event that such Event of Default is subsequently cured (and no other Event of Default then exists, including, without limitation, for the Company’s failure to pay such Interest at the Default Rate on the applicable Interest Date), the adjustment referred to in the preceding sentence shall cease to be effective as of the calendar day immediately following the date of such cure; provided that the Interest as calculated and unpaid at such increased rate during the continuance of such Event of Default shall continue to apply to the extent relating to the days after the occurrence of such Event of Default through and including the date of such cure of such Event of Default.

3. CONVERSION OF NOTES. At any time after the Issuance Date, this Note shall be convertible into validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (as defined below), on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3.

(a) Conversion Right. Subject to the provisions of Section 3(d), at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, the Holder shall be entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid Conversion Amount (as defined below) into validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock in accordance with Section 3(c), at the Conversion Rate (as defined below). The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any conversion. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up to the nearest whole share. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp, issuance and similar taxes, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of the Transfer Agent (as defined below), but excluding any income tax) that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Common Stock upon conversion of any Conversion Amount.

(b) Conversion Rate. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Conversion Amount pursuant to Section 3(a) shall be determined by dividing (x) such Conversion Amount by (y) the Conversion Price (the “Conversion Rate”).

(i) “Conversion Amount” means the sum of (A) the portion of the Principal of this Note to be converted, redeemed or otherwise with respect to which this determination is being made, (B) accrued and unpaid Interest with respect to such Principal of this Note, and (D) any other unpaid amounts pursuant to the Transaction Documents, if any.

(ii) “Conversion Price” means, as of any Conversion Date or other date of determination, $10,00, subject to adjustment as provided herein.

58

(c) Mechanics of Conversion.

(i) Optional Conversion. To convert any Conversion Amount into shares of Common Stock on any date (a “Conversion Date”), the Holder shall deliver (whether via electronic mail or otherwise), for receipt on or prior to 11:59 p.m., New York time, on such date, a copy of an executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (each, a “Conversion Notice”) to the Company. If required by Section 3(c)(iii), within two (2) Trading Days following a conversion of this Note as aforesaid, the Holder shall surrender this Note to a nationally recognized overnight delivery service for delivery to the Company (or an indemnification undertaking with respect to this Note in the case of its loss, theft or destruction as contemplated by Section 19(b)). On or before the first (1st) Trading Day following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall transmit by electronic mail an acknowledgment, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit II, of confirmation of receipt of such Conversion Notice and representation as to whether such shares of Common Stock may then be resold pursuant to Rule 144 or an effective and available registration statement (each, an “Acknowledgement”) to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) which confirmation shall constitute an instruction to the Transfer Agent to process such Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms herein. On or before the second (2nd) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received a Conversion Notice (or such earlier date as required pursuant to the 1934 Act or other applicable law, rule or regulation for the settlement of a trade initiated on the applicable Conversion Date of such shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such Conversion Notice) (the “Share Delivery Deadline”), the Company shall (1) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company’s (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (“FAST”), credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled pursuant to such conversion to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system or (2) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, upon the request of the Holder, issue and deliver (via reputable overnight courier) to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled pursuant to such conversion. If this Note is physically surrendered for conversion pursuant to Section 3(c)(iii) and the outstanding Principal of this Note is greater than the Principal portion of the Conversion Amount being converted, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than two (2) Business Days after receipt of this Note and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a new Note (in accordance with Section 19(d)) representing the outstanding Principal not converted. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on the Conversion Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the Registration Rights Agreement, after the effective date of the Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) and prior to the Holder’s receipt of the notice of a Grace Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to the Holder (or its designee) in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) with respect to which the Holder has entered into a contract for sale, and delivered a copy of the prospectus included as part of the particular Registration Statement to the extent applicable, and for which the Holder has not yet settled.

(ii) Company’s Failure to Timely Convert. If the Company shall fail, for any reason or for no reason, on or prior to the applicable Share Delivery Deadline, either (I) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, to issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in FAST, to credit the balance account of the Holder or the Holder’s designee with DTC for such number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion of this Note (as the case may be) and such failure is not cured within two (2) Trading Days or (II) if the Registration Statement covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock that are the subject of the Conversion Notice (the “Unavailable Conversion Shares”) is not available for the resale of such Unavailable Conversion Shares and the Company fails to promptly, but in no event later than as required pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement (x) so notify the Holder and (y) deliver the shares of Common Stock electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such conversion

59

to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian system and such failure is not cured within two (2) Trading Days (the event described in the immediately foregoing clause (II) is hereinafter referred as a “Notice Failure” and together with the event described in clause (I) above, a “Conversion Failure”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, (1) the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder on each day after such Share Delivery Deadline that the issuance of such shares of Common Stock is not timely effected an amount equal to 1% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock not issued to the Holder on or prior to the Share Delivery Deadline and to which the Holder is entitled, multiplied by (B) any trading price of the Common Stock selected by the Holder in writing as in effect at any time during the period beginning on the applicable Conversion Date and ending on the applicable Share Delivery Deadline and (2) the Holder, upon written notice to the Company, may void its Conversion Notice with respect to, and retain or have returned (as the case may be) any portion of this Note that has not been converted pursuant to such Conversion Notice, provided that the voiding of a Conversion Notice shall not affect the Company’s obligations to make any payments which have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 3(c)(ii) or otherwise. In addition to the foregoing, if on or prior to the Share Delivery Deadline either (A) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in FAST, the Company shall fail to issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a certificate and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in FAST, the Transfer Agent shall fail to credit the balance account of the Holder or the Holder’s designee with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion hereunder or pursuant to the Company’s obligation pursuant to clause (II) below or (B) a Notice Failure occurs, and if on or after such Share Delivery Deadline the Holder acquires (in an open market transaction, stock loan or otherwise) shares of Common Stock corresponding to all or any portion of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion that the Holder is entitled to receive from the Company and has not received from the Company in connection with such Conversion Failure or Notice Failure, as applicable (a “Buy-In”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days after receipt of the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either: (I) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, stock loan costs and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so acquired (including, without limitation, by any other Person in respect, or on behalf, of the Holder) (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to so issue and deliver such certificate (and to issue such shares of Common Stock) or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion hereunder (as the case may be) (and to issue such shares of Common Stock) shall terminate, or (II) promptly honor its obligation to so issue and deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion hereunder (as the case may be) and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (x) such number of shares of Common Stock multiplied by (y) the lowest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date of the applicable Conversion Notice and ending on the date of such issuance and payment under this clause (II) (the “Buy-In Payment Amount”). Nothing shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock (or to electronically deliver such shares of Common Stock) upon the conversion of this Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

(iii) Registration; Book-Entry. The Company shall maintain a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the holders of each Note and the principal amount of the Notes held by such holders (the “Registered Notes”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The Company and the holders of the Notes shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Note for all purposes (including, without limitation, the right to receive payments of Principal and Interest hereunder) notwithstanding notice to the contrary. A Registered Note may be assigned, transferred or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register. Upon its receipt of a written request to assign, transfer or sell all or part of any Registered Note by the holder thereof, the Company shall record the information

60

contained therein in the Register and issue one or more new Registered Notes in the same aggregate principal amount as the principal amount of the surrendered Registered Note to the designated assignee or transferee pursuant to Section 19, provided that if the Company does not so record an assignment, transfer or sale (as the case may be) of all or part of any Registered Note within two (2) Business Days of such a request, then the Register shall be automatically deemed updated to reflect such assignment, transfer or sale (as the case may be). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 3, following conversion of any portion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless (A) the full Conversion Amount represented by this Note is being converted (in which event this Note shall be delivered to the Company following conversion thereof as contemplated by Section 3(c)(i)) or (B) the Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Conversion Notice) requesting reissuance of this Note upon physical surrender of this Note. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the Principal and Interest converted and/or paid (as the case may be) and the dates of such conversions, and/or payments (as the case may be) or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon conversion. If the Company does not update the Register to record such Principal and Interest converted and/or paid (as the case may be) and the dates of such conversions, and/or payments (as the case may be) within two (2) Business Days of such occurrence, then the Register shall be automatically deemed updated to reflect such occurrence.

(iv) Pro Rata Conversion; Disputes. In the event that the Company receives a Conversion Notice from more than one holder of Notes for the same Conversion Date and the Company can convert some, but not all, of such portions of the Notes submitted for conversion, the Company, subject to Section 3(d), shall convert from each holder of Notes electing to have Notes converted on such date a pro rata amount of such holder’s portion of its Notes submitted for conversion based on the principal amount of Notes submitted for conversion on such date by such holder relative to the aggregate principal amount of all Notes submitted for conversion on such date. In the event of a dispute as to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder in connection with a conversion of this Note, the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock not in dispute and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 24.

(d) Limitations on Conversions. The Company shall not effect the conversion of any portion of this Note, and the Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Note and any such conversion shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, the Holder together with the other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and the other Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock held by the Holder and all other Attribution Parties plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining, nonconverted portion of this Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of the other Attribution Parties and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants, including, without limitation, the Warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any other Attribution Party subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 3(d). For purposes of this Section 3(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act. For purposes of determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may acquire upon the conversion of this Note without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent, if any, setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the “Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If the Company receives a Conversion Notice from the Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall notify the Holder in writing of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such Conversion Notice would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 3(d),

61

to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder must notify the Company of a reduced number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased pursuant to such Conversion Notice. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day confirm orally and in writing or by electronic mail to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Note, by the Holder and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of shares of Common Stock to the Holder upon conversion of this Note results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (as determined under Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act), the number of shares so issued by which the Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficial ownership exceeds the Maximum Percentage (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase (with such increase not effective until the sixty-first (61^st) day after delivery of such notice) or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective until the sixty-first (61^st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and the other Attribution Parties and not to any other holder of Notes that is not an Attribution Party of the Holder. For purposes of clarity, the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of this Note in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the 1934 Act. No prior inability to convert this Note pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of convertibility. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 3(d) to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph (or any portion of this paragraph) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section 3(d) or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of this Note.

(e) Right of Alternate Conversion Upon an Event of Default.

(i) General. Subject to Section 3(d), upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Company may irrevocably elect in the Event of Default Notice (or otherwise in a writing to the Holder) to permit the Holder to effect Alternate Conversions pursuant to this Section 3(e) during such applicable Event of Default Redemption Right Period (as defined below) with respect thereto (each, an “Alternate Conversion Election”). For the avoidance of doubt, an Alternate Conversion Election with respect to a prior Event of Default Redemption Right Period shall not constitute an automatic election for a future Event of Default Redemption Right Period (any Alternate Conversion Election must be made in writing by the Company and specific to an applicable Event of Default Redemption Right Period). If the Company has made an Alternate Conversion Election with respect to an Event of Default Redemption Right Period (but regardless of whether the Holder has delivered an Event of Default Redemption Notice to the Company or, if applicable, whether the Company has cured such Event of Default prior to the applicable Event of Default Redemption Right Expiration Date (as defined below)), the Holder may, at the Holder’s option, convert (each, an “Alternate Conversion”, and the date of such Alternate Conversion, each, an “Alternate Conversion Date”) all, or any part of, the Conversion Amount (such portion of the Conversion Amount subject to such Alternate Conversion, the “Alternate Conversion Amount”) into shares of Common Stock at a conversion rate equal to the quotient of (x) the product of (A) the Redemption Premium and (B) the Conversion Amount (the amount in this clause (x) being the “Redemption Premium of the Conversion Amount”), divided by (y) the Alternate Conversion Price (the “Alternate Conversion Rate”). Any Alternate Conversion with respect to such Alternate Conversion Amount shall be in lieu of redemption of such Alternate Conversion Amount to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled pursuant to Section 4 below.

(ii) Mechanics of Alternate Conversion. On any Alternate Conversion Date, the Holder may voluntarily convert any Alternate Conversion Amount pursuant to Section 3(c) at the Alternate Conversion Rate (for the avoidance of doubt, with “Alternate Conversion Price” replacing “Conversion Price” for all

62

purposes hereunder with respect to such Alternate Conversion and, solely with respect to the calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Conversion Amount in an Alternate Event of Default Conversion, with “Redemption Premium of the Conversion Amount” replacing “Conversion Amount” in clause (x) of the definition of Conversion Rate with respect to such Alternate Conversion) by designating in the Conversion Notice delivered pursuant to this Section 3(e) of this Note that the Holder is electing to use the Alternate Conversion Price for such conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3(e), but subject to Section 3(d), until the Company delivers shares of Common Stock representing the applicable Alternate Conversion Amount to the Holder, such Alternate Conversion Amount may be converted by the Holder into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3(c) without regard to this Section 3(e). In the event of an Alternate Conversion pursuant to this Section 3(e) of all, or any portion, of this Note, the Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 3(e), together the Alternate Conversion Price used in such Alternate Conversion, as applicable, is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of, the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.

(xviii) any Event of Default (as defined in the Other Notes) occurs with respect to any Other Notes.

(b) Notice of an Event of Default; Redemption Right. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to this Note or any Other Note, the Company shall within two (2) Business Day (each, an “Event of Default Notice Due Date”) deliver written notice thereof via electronic mail and overnight courier (with next day delivery specified) (each, an “Event of Default Notice”) to the Holder. At any time after the earlier of (x) the Holder’s receipt of an Event of Default Notice and (y) the Holder becoming aware of an Event of Default for which no Event of Default Notice has been previously delivered (such earlier date, each, an “Event of Default Right Commencement Date”) and ending (such ending date, each, an “Event of Default Right Expiration Date”, and each such period, an “Event of Default Redemption Right Period”) on (i) if the Company has delivered an Event of Default Notice to the Holder on or prior to the applicable Event of Default Notice Due Date, the date such Event of Default has been cured or (ii) if the Company has failed to deliver the Event of Default Notice on or prior to the applicable Event of Default Notice Due Date, as applicable, either (x) if the Company has made an Alternate Conversion Election in such applicable Event of Default Notice with respect thereto, the later of (A) the tenth (10^th) Trading Day following the date of delivery of such Event of Default Notice to the Holder and (B) the date such Event of Default has been cured or (y) if the Company has not made an Alternate Conversion Election in such applicable Event of Default Notice with respect thereto, the

65

later of (A) the twentieth (20^th) Trading Day following the date of delivery of such applicable Event of Default Notice to the Holder and (B) the date such Event of Default has been cured, the Holder may require the Company to redeem (regardless of whether such Event of Default has been cured on or prior to the Event of Default Right Expiration Date) all or any portion of this Note by delivering written notice thereof (each, an “Event of Default Redemption Notice”) to the Company, which Event of Default Redemption Notice shall indicate the portion of this Note the Holder is electing to redeem. Each portion of this Note subject to redemption by the Company pursuant to this Section 4(b) shall be redeemed by the Company at a price equal to the greater of (i) the product of (A) the Conversion Amount to be redeemed multiplied by (B) the Redemption Premium and (ii) the product of (X) the Conversion Rate with respect to the Conversion Amount in effect at such time as the Holder delivers an Event of Default Redemption Notice multiplied by (Y) the product of (1) the Redemption Premium multiplied by (2) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date immediately preceding such Event of Default and ending on the date the Company makes the entire payment required to be made under this Section 4(b) (each, an “Event of Default Redemption Price”). Redemptions required by this Section 4(b) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 12. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 4(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of this Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Subject to Section 3(d), until the Event of Default Redemption Price is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 4(b) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Note. In the event of the Company’s redemption of any portion of this Note under this Section 4(b), the Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 4(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty. Any redemption upon an Event of Default shall not constitute an election of remedies by the Holder, and all other rights and remedies of the Holder shall be preserved.

(c) Mandatory Redemption upon Bankruptcy Event of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, and notwithstanding any conversion that is then required or in process, upon any Bankruptcy Event of Default, whether occurring prior to or following the Maturity Date, the Company shall immediately pay to the Holder an amount in cash representing (i) all outstanding Principal and accrued and unpaid Interest, multiplied by (ii) the Redemption Premium, in addition to any and all other amounts due hereunder, without the requirement for any notice or demand or other action by the Holder or any other person or entity, provided that the Holder may, in its sole discretion, waive such right to receive payment upon a Bankruptcy Event of Default, in whole or in part, and any such waiver shall not affect any other rights of the Holder hereunder, including any other rights in respect of such Bankruptcy Event of Default, any right to conversion, and any right to payment of the Event of Default Redemption Price or any other Redemption Price, as applicable.

5. RIGHTS UPON FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTION.

(a) Assumption. The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless (i) the Successor Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Note and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5(a) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder prior to such Fundamental Transaction, including agreements to deliver to each holder of Notes in exchange for such Notes a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to the Notes, including, without limitation, having a principal amount and interest rate equal to the principal amounts then outstanding and the interest rates of the Notes held by such holder, having similar conversion rights as the Notes and having similar ranking and security to the Notes, and satisfactory to the Holder and (ii) the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) is a publicly traded corporation whose common stock is quoted on or listed for trading on an Eligible Market. Upon the occurrence of any Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Note and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Note and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation of a Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon

66

conversion or redemption of this Note at any time after the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property (except such items still issuable under Sections 6 and 16, which shall continue to be receivable thereafter)) issuable upon the conversion or redemption of the Notes prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of the publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction had this Note been converted immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Note), as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may elect, at its sole option, by delivery of written notice to the Company to waive this Section 5(a) to permit the Fundamental Transaction without the assumption of this Note. The provisions of this Section 5 shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Note.

(b) Notice of a Change of Control; Redemption Right. No sooner than the public announcement of a Change of Control, nor later than ten (10) Trading Days prior to the consummation of a Change of Control (the “Change of Control Date”), the Company shall deliver written notice thereof via electronic mail and overnight courier to the Holder (a “Change of Control Notice”). At any time during the period beginning after the Holder’s receipt of a Change of Control Notice or the Holder becoming aware of a Change of Control if a Change of Control Notice is not delivered to the Holder in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence (as applicable) and ending on fifteen (15) days after the later of (A) the date of consummation of such Change of Control or (B) the date of receipt of such Change of Control Notice or (C) the date of the announcement of such Change of Control, the Holder may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of this Note by delivering written notice thereof (“Change of Control Redemption Notice”) to the Company, which Change of Control Redemption Notice shall indicate the Conversion Amount the Holder is electing to redeem. The portion of this Note subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 5 shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to the greatest of (i) the product of (w) the Change of Control Redemption Premium multiplied by (y) the Conversion Amount being redeemed, (ii) the product of (x) the Change of Control Redemption Premium multiplied by (y) the product of (A) the Conversion Amount being redeemed multiplied by (B) the quotient determined by dividing (I) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the shares of Common Stock during the period beginning on the date immediately preceding the earlier to occur of (1) the consummation of the applicable Change of Control and (2) the public announcement of such Change of Control and ending on the date the Holder delivers the Change of Control Redemption Notice by (II) the Conversion Pricethen in effect and (iii) the product of (y) the Change of Control Redemption Premium multiplied by (z) the product of (A) the Conversion Amount being redeemed multiplied by (B) the quotient of (I) the aggregate cash consideration and the aggregate cash value of any non-cash consideration per share of Common Stock to be paid to the holders of the shares of Common Stock upon consummation of such Change of Control (any such non-cash consideration constituting publicly-traded securities shall be valued at the highest of the Closing Sale Price of such securities as of the Trading Day immediately prior to the consummation of such Change of Control, the Closing Sale Price of such securities on the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of such proposed Change of Control and the Closing Sale Price of such securities on the Trading Day immediately prior to the public announcement of such proposed Change of Control) divided by (II) the Conversion Price then in effect (the “Change of Control Redemption Price”). Redemptions required by this Section 5 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 12 and shall have priority to payments to stockholders in connection with such Change of Control. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 5(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of this Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5, but subject to Section 3(d), until the Change of Control Redemption Price is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 5(b) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to Section 3. In the event of the Company’s redemption of any portion of this Note under this Section 5(b), the Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 5(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.

67

6. RIGHTS UPON ISSUANCE OF PURCHASE RIGHTS AND OTHER CORPORATE EVENTS.

(a) Purchase Rights. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Sections 7 or 16 below, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to all or substantially all of the record holders of any class of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note and assuming for such purpose that the Note was converted at the Alternate Conversion Price as of the applicable record date) immediately prior to the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to the extent of the Maximum Percentage (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right (and beneficial ownership) to the extent of any such excess) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance (and, if such Purchase Right has an expiration date, maturity date or other similar provision, such term shall be extended by such number of days held in abeyance, if applicable) for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such right (and any Purchase Right granted, issued or sold on such initial Purchase Right or on any subsequent Purchase Right held similarly in abeyance (and, if such Purchase Right has an expiration date, maturity date or other similar provision, such term shall be extended by such number of days held in abeyance, if applicable)) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation); provided that any such period of abeyance shall not exceed ninety (90) Trading Days after the later of (x) the expiration date of such Purchase Right and (y) the Applicable Date (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement).

(b) Other Corporate Events. In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a “Corporate Event”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to ensure that the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon a conversion of this Note, at the Holder’s option (i) in addition to the shares of Common Stock receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets to which the Holder would have been entitled with respect to such shares of Common Stock had such shares of Common Stock been held by the Holder upon the consummation of such Corporate Event (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note) or (ii) in lieu of the shares of Common Stock otherwise receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets received by the holders of shares of Common Stock in connection with the consummation of such Corporate Event in such amounts as the Holder would have been entitled to receive had this Note initially been issued with conversion rights for the form of such consideration (as opposed to shares of Common Stock) at a conversion rate for such consideration commensurate with the Conversion Rate. Provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance satisfactory to the Holder. The provisions of this Section 6 shall apply similarly and equally to successive Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion or redemption of this Note.

7. RIGHTS UPON ISSUANCE OF OTHER SECURITIES.

(a) Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. Without limiting any provision of Section 6 or Section 16, if the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination, recapitalization or other similar transaction) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. Without limiting any provision of Section 6 or Section 16 if the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date combines (by any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination, recapitalization or other similar transaction) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. Any adjustment pursuant to this

68

Section 7(a) shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this Section 7(a) occurs during the period that a Conversion Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Conversion Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.

(b) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 7 shall be made by rounding to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100^th of a share, as applicable. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.

(c) Voluntary Adjustment by Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Principal Market, the Company may at any time during the term of this Note, with the prior written consent of the Required Holders (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), reduce the then current Conversion Price of each of the Notes to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the board of directors of the Company.

8. ASSET SALE OPTIONAL REDEMPTION

(a) General. At any time from and after the earlier of (x) the date the Holder becomes aware of the occurrence of an Asset Sale (including any insurance and condemnation proceeds thereof) (the “Holder Notice Date”) and (y) the time of consummation of an Asset Sale (other than sales of inventory and product in the ordinary course of business and amounts reinvested in assets to be used or useful in the Company or any of its Subsidiaries’ business within twelve months of the date of consummation of such Asset Sale), in each case only to the extent the gross proceeds of such Asset Sale exceeds $1,000,000 (each, an “Eligible Asset Sale”), the Holder shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to require that the Company redeem (each an “Asset Sale Optional Redemption”) all, or any portion, of the Conversion Amount under this Note not in excess of (together with any Asset Sale Optional Redemption Amount (as defined in the applicable other Notes issued to purchasers pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement) the Holder’s Holder Pro Rata Amount of 25% of the gross proceeds (with any non-cash proceeds valued at the fair market value thereof as reasonably determined) of such Eligible Asset Sale (the “Eligible Asset Sale Optional Redemption Amount”) by delivering written notice thereof (an “Asset Sale Optional Redemption Notice”) to the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, no Redemption Premium or other premium or penalty is required to be paid hereunder in connection with an Asset Sale Optional Redemption.

(b) Mechanics. Each Asset Sale Optional Redemption Notice shall indicate that all, or such applicable portion, as set forth in the applicable Asset Sale Optional Redemption Notice, of the Eligible Asset Sale Optional Redemption Amount the Holder is electing to have redeemed (the “Asset Sale Optional Redemption Amount”) and the date of such Asset Sale Optional Redemption (the “Asset Sale Optional Redemption Date”), which shall be the later of (x) the fifth (5^th) Business Day after the date of the applicable Asset Sale Optional Redemption Notice and (y) the date of the consummation of such Eligible Asset Sale. The portion of the Conversion Amount of this Note subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 8 shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to 100% of the applicable Asset Sale Optional Redemption Amount (the “Asset Sale Optional Redemption Price”). Redemptions required by this Section 8 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.

9. NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), Bylaws (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, undertake any such action for the purpose of avoiding or seeking to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Note. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision of this Note or the other Transaction Documents, the Company (a) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon conversion of this Note above the Conversion Price then in effect, and (b) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note.

10. COMPANY OPTIONAL REDEMPTION

(a) Company Optional Redemption. At any time, the Company shall have the right to redeem all, or any portion, of the Conversion Amount then remaining under this Note (the “Company Optional Redemption

Amount”) on the Company Optional Redemption Date (each as defined below) (a “Company Optional Redemption”). The portion of this Note subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 10(a) shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price (the “Company Optional Redemption Price”) equal to 115% of the greater of (i) the Conversion Amount being redeemed as of the Company Optional Redemption Date and (ii) the product of (1) the Conversion Rate with respect to the Conversion Amount being redeemed as of the Company Optional Redemption Date multiplied by (2) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date immediately preceding such Company Optional Redemption Notice Date and ending on the Trading Day immediately prior to the date the Company makes the entire payment required to be made under this Section 10(a). The Company may exercise its right to require redemption under this Section 10(a) by delivering a written notice thereof by electronic mail and overnight courier to all, but not less than all, of the holders of Notes (the “Company Optional Redemption Notice” and the date all of the holders of Notes received such notice is referred to as the “Company Optional Redemption Notice Date”). The Company may deliver only one Company Optional Redemption Notice hereunder in any twenty (20) Trading Day period and each such Company Optional Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable. The Company Optional Redemption Notice shall (x) state the date on which the Company Optional Redemption shall occur (the “Company Optional Redemption Date”) which date shall not be less than fifteen (15) Trading Days nor more than twenty-five (25) Trading Days following the Company Optional Redemption Notice Date, and (y) state the aggregate Conversion Amount of the Notes which is being redeemed in such Company Optional Redemption from the Holder and all of the other holders of the Notes pursuant to this Section 10(a) (and analogous provisions under the Other Notes) on the Company Optional Redemption Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at any time prior to the date the Company Optional Redemption Price is paid, in full, the Company Optional Redemption Amount may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3. All Conversion Amounts converted by the Holder after the Company Optional Redemption Notice Date shall reduce the Company Optional Redemption Amount of this Note required to be redeemed on the Company Optional Redemption Date. Redemptions made pursuant to this Section 10(a) shall be made in accordance with Section 12. In the event of the Company’s redemption of any portion of this Note under this Section 10(a), the Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 9 is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall have no right to effect a Company Optional Redemption if any Event of Default has occurred and continuing, but any Event of Default shall have no effect upon the Holder’s right to convert this Note in its discretion.

(b) Pro Rata Redemption Requirement. If the Company elects to cause a Company Optional Redemption of this Note pursuant to Section 10(a), then it must simultaneously take the same action with respect to all of the Other Notes.

11. RESERVATION OF AUTHORIZED SHARES.

(a) Reservation. So long as any Notes remain outstanding, the Company shall at all times reserve at least 200% of the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the conversion, including without limitation, Alternate Conversions, of all of the Notes then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on conversions and assuming such Notes remain outstanding until the Maturity Date) at the Alternate Conversion Price then in effect (the “Required Reserve Amount”). The Required Reserve Amount (including, without limitation, each increase in the number of shares so reserved) shall be allocated pro rata among the holders of the Notes based on the original principal amount of the Notes held by each holder on the Closing Date or increase in the number of reserved shares, as the case may be (the “Authorized Share Allocation”). In the event that a holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such holder’s Notes, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such holder’s Authorized Share Allocation. Any shares of Common Stock reserved and allocated to any Person which ceases to hold any Notes shall be allocated to the remaining holders of Notes, pro rata based on the principal amount of the Notes then held by such holders.

(b) Insufficient Authorized Shares. If, notwithstanding Section 11(a), and not in limitation thereof, at any time while any of the Notes remain outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance upon conversion of the Notes at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Required Reserve Amount (an “Authorized

70

Share Failure”), then the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to promptly take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for the Notes then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each stockholder with a proxy statement and shall use its best efforts to solicit its stockholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal. In the event that the Company is prohibited from issuing shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Note due to the failure by the Company to have sufficient shares of Common Stock available out of the authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (such unavailable number of shares of Common Stock, the “Authorized Failure Shares”), in lieu of delivering such Authorized Failure Shares to the Holder, the Company shall pay cash in exchange for the redemption of such portion of the Conversion Amount convertible into such Authorized Failure Shares at a price equal to the sum of (i) the product of (x) such number of Authorized Failure Shares and (y) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date the Holder delivers the applicable Conversion Notice with respect to such Authorized Failure Shares to the Company and ending on the date of such issuance and payment under this Section 11(a); and (ii) to the extent the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Authorized Failure Shares, any brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any, of the Holder incurred in connection therewith. Nothing contained in Section 11(a) or this Section 11(b) shall limit any obligations of the Company under any provision of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

12. REDEMPTIONS.

(a) Mechanics. The Company shall deliver the applicable Event of Default Redemption Price to the Holder in cash within five (5) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of the Holder’s Event of Default Redemption Notice in accordance with Section 4(b). If the Holder has submitted a Change of Control Redemption Notice in accordance with Section 5(b), the Company shall deliver the applicable Change of Control Redemption Price to the Holder in cash concurrently with the consummation of such Change of Control if such notice is received prior to the consummation of such Change of Control and within five (5) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of such notice otherwise. The Company shall deliver the applicable Company Optional Redemption Price to the Holder in cash on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date. The Company shall deliver the applicable Asset Sale Optional Redemption Price to the Holder in cash on the applicable Asset Sale Optional Redemption Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in connection with any redemption hereunder at a time the Holder is entitled to receive a cash payment under any of the other Transaction Documents, at the option of the Holder delivered in writing to the Company, the applicable Redemption Price hereunder shall be increased by the amount of such cash payment owed to the Holder under such other Transaction Document and, upon payment in full or conversion in accordance herewith, shall satisfy the Company’s payment obligation under such other Transaction Document. In the event of a redemption of less than all of the Conversion Amount of this Note, the Company shall promptly cause to be issued and delivered to the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 19(d)) representing the outstanding Principal which has not been redeemed. In the event that the Company does not pay the applicable Redemption Price to the Holder within the time period required, at any time thereafter and until the Company pays such unpaid Redemption Price in full, the Holder shall have the option, in lieu of redemption, to require the Company to promptly return to the Holder all or any portion of this Note representing the Conversion Amount that was submitted for redemption and for which the applicable Redemption Price has not been paid. Upon the Company’s receipt of such notice, (x) the applicable Redemption Notice shall be null and void with respect to such Conversion Amount, and (y) the Company shall immediately return this Note, or issue a new Note (in accordance with Section 19(d)), to the Holder, and in each case the principal amount of this Note or such new Note (as the case may be) shall be increased by an amount equal to the difference between (1) the applicable Redemption Price (as the case may be, and as adjusted pursuant to this Section 12, if applicable) minus (2) the Principal portion of the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption.

(b) Redemption by Other Holders. Upon the Company’s receipt of notice from any of the holders of the Other Notes for redemption or repayment as a result of an event or occurrence substantially similar to the events

71

or occurrences described in Section 4(b) or Section 5(b) (each, an “Other Redemption Notice”), the Company shall promptly, but no later than one (1) Business Day of its receipt thereof, forward to the Holder by electronic mail a copy of such notice. If the Company receives a Redemption Notice and one or more Other Redemption Notices, during the seven (7) Business Day period beginning on and including the date which is two (2) Business Days prior to the Company’s receipt of the Holder’s applicable Redemption Notice and ending on and including the date which is two (2) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of the Holder’s applicable Redemption Notice and the Company is unable to redeem all principal, interest and other amounts designated in such Redemption Notice and such Other Redemption Notices received during such seven (7) Business Day period, then the Company shall redeem a pro rata amount from each holder of the Notes (including the Holder) based on the principal amount of the Notes submitted for redemption pursuant to such Redemption Notice and such Other Redemption Notices received by the Company during such seven (7) Business Day period.

13. VOTING RIGHTS. The Holder shall have no voting rights as the holder of this Note, except as required by law (including, without limitation, the Delaware General Corporation Law) and as expressly provided in this Note.

(o) Change in Collateral; Collateral Records. The Company shall (i) give the Collateral Agent not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice (or such other notice the Collateral Agent may accept) of any change in the location of any Collateral (as defined in the Security Documents), other than to locations set forth in the Perfection Certificate (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) hereto or in transit with common carriers or out for repair or in the possession of contract manufacturers and other service providers or in the possession of employees and with respect to which the Collateral Agent has filed financing statements and otherwise fully perfected its Liens thereon, (ii) advise the Collateral Agent promptly, in sufficient detail, of any material adverse change relating to the Lien granted on the Collateral and (iii) execute and deliver, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to execute and deliver, to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Holder and holders of the Other Notes from time to time, solely for the Collateral Agent’s convenience in maintaining a record of Collateral, such written statements and schedules as the Collateral Agent or any Holder may reasonably require, designating, identifying or describing the Collateral.

On or prior to the sixtieth (60^th) calendar day after the Closing Date, the Company shall establish and maintain cash management services of a type and on terms reasonably satisfactory to Holder at and each bank listed on Schedule 14(p)(i) attached hereto (each a “Controlled Account Bank”) and cause all cash and cash equivalents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) to be held in Accounts (as defined in the Security Agreement) at one or more Controlled Account Banks in accordance therewith. Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall establish and maintain Controlled Account Agreements with the Collateral Agent (as each such term is defined in the Security Agreement) and each Controlled Account Bank, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent and the Required Holders, with respect to each account maintained at such bank on behalf of Company and/or its Subsidiaries (each such account a “Controlled Account” and collectively, the “Controlled Accounts”), including, without limitation, the Operating Accounts (as defined below).

On the Announcement Date, the Company shall also provide to the Holder a certification, executed on behalf of the Company by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, certifying that the Company satisfied the Financial Test for such Fiscal Quarter or Fiscal Year, as applicable, if that is the case. If a Financial Covenant Failure by the Company exists for a Fiscal Quarter, on or prior to the Announcement Date, the Company shall provide to the Holders a written certification, executed on behalf of the Company by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, certifying that a Financial Covenant Failure exists for such Fiscal Quarter or Fiscal Year, as applicable (a “Financial Covenant Event Notice”). Concurrently with the delivery of each Financial Covenant Event Notice to the Holders, the Company shall also make publicly available (as part of a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Annual Report on Form 10-K or on a Current Report on Form 8-K, or otherwise) the Financial Covenant Event Notice and the fact that an Event of Default has occurred under the Notes.

(s) Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. To the extent that it may lawfully do so, the Company (A) agrees that it will not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage

75

of, any stay, extension or usury law (wherever or whenever enacted or in force) that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Note; and (B) expressly waives all benefits or advantages of any such law and agrees that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted to the Holder by this Note, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

(t) Taxes. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall pay when due all material state and federal taxes, fees or other charges of any nature whatsoever (together with any related interest or penalties) now or hereafter imposed or assessed against the Company and its Subsidiaries or their respective assets or upon their ownership, possession, use, operation or disposition thereof or upon their rents, receipts or earnings arising therefrom (except where the failure to pay would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries). The Company and its Subsidiaries shall file on or before the due date therefor all personal property tax returns (except where the failure to file would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and its Subsidiaries may contest, in good faith and by appropriate proceedings, taxes for which they maintain adequate reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP.

15. SECURITY. This Note and the Other Notes are secured to the extent and in the manner set forth in the Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, the Security Agreement, the other Security Documents and the Guaranties), but subject to any intercreditor or similar agreement that may be executed and delivered by the Holder or the Collateral Agent with respect to Permitted Senior Indebtedness from time to time.

16. DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Sections 6(a) or 7, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distributions of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to any or all holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (the “Distributions”), then the Holder will be entitled to such Distributions as if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note and assuming for such purpose that the Note was converted at the Alternate Conversion Price as of the applicable record date) immediately prior to the date on which a record is taken for such Distribution or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for such Distributions (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the extent of the Maximum Percentage (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution (and beneficial ownership) to the extent of any such excess) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such Distribution (and any Distributions declared or made on such initial Distribution or on any subsequent Distribution held similarly in abeyance) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation).

17. AMENDING THE TERMS OF THIS NOTE. Except for Section 3(d), which may not be amended, modified or waived without the prior written consent of the Required Holders (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) and the Company shall be required for any amendment, modification or waiver to this Note. Any amendment, modification or waiver so approved shall be binding upon all existing and future holders of this Note and any Other Notes; provided, however, that no such change, waiver or, as applied to any of the Notes held by any particular holder of Notes, shall, without the written consent of that particular holder, (i) disproportionally and adversely affect any rights under the Notes of any holder of Notes; or (ii) modify any of the provisions of, or impair the right of any holder of Notes under, this Section 17.

18. TRANSFER. This Note and any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of this Note may be offered, sold, assigned or transferred by the Holder without the consent of the Company, subject only to the provisions of Section 2(g) of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

19. REISSUANCE OF THIS NOTE.

(a) Transfer. If this Note is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Note to the Company, whereupon the Company will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Note (in

accordance with Section 19(d)), registered as the Holder may request, representing the outstanding Principal being transferred by the Holder and, if less than the entire outstanding Principal is being transferred, a new Note (in accordance with Section 19(d)) to the Holder representing the outstanding Principal not being transferred. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of Section 3(c)(iii) following conversion or redemption of any portion of this Note, the outstanding Principal represented by this Note may be less than the Principal stated on the face of this Note.

The remedies provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Note and any of the other Transaction Documents at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Note. No failure on the part of the Holder to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Holder of any right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. In addition, the exercise of any right or remedy of the Holder at law or equity or under this Note or any of the documents shall not be deemed to be an election of Holder’s rights or remedies under such documents or at law or equity.

Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof).

77

for such collection, enforcement or action or in connection with such bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other proceeding, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements. The Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that no amounts due under this Note shall be affected, or limited, by the fact that the purchase price paid for this Note was less than the original Principal amount hereof.

The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Note instead of just the provision in which they are found.

23. FAILURE OR INDULGENCE NOT WAIVER. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 23 shall permit any waiver of any provision of Section 3(d).

SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV
51 Astor Place, 10^th Floor
New York, New York 10002

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This Subscription Agreement (this “Subscription Agreement”) is being entered into as of the date set forth on the signature page hereto, by and between Aja Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation and prior to the Closing Date (as defined below), a wholly owned subsidiary of ARYA (“ListCo”), ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“ARYA”), and the undersigned subscriber (the “Investor”), in connection with the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Transaction Agreement”), by and among ListCo, ARYA, Aja Merger Sub 1, a Cayman Islands exempted company and prior to the Closing Date, a wholly owned subsidiary of ListCo (“ARYA Merger Sub”), Aja Merger Sub 2, a Delaware corporation and prior to the Closing Date, a wholly owned subsidiary of ListCo (“Company Merger Sub”) and Adagio Medical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to which, among other things, ARYA Merger Sub will merge with and into ARYA and Company Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with ARYA and the Company surviving the mergers and ARYA and the Company becoming wholly owned subsidiaries of ListCo, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Transaction Agreement (the “Transaction”).  

In connection with the Transaction, ListCo is seeking commitments from interested investors to purchase in a private placement, contingent upon, and substantially concurrently with the closing of the Transaction, (i) shares (the “Shares”) of ListCo’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) , and (ii) warrants, each representing the right to purchase shares of Common Stock and to be represented by a warrant with the terms and conditions in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Warrant Agreement”) and which will be executed on the Closing Date (as defined below) (such warrants, the “Warrants” and together with the Shares, the “PIPE Securities”). On or about the date of this Subscription Agreement, the parties to this Subscription Agreement (other than the Investor) are entering into subscription agreements (the “Other Subscription Agreements,” and together with this Subscription Agreement, the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain other investors (the “Other Investors,” and together with the Investor, the “Investors”). The shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants are herein after referred to as the “Warrant Shares.” The aggregate purchase price to be paid by the Investor for the PIPE Securities (as set forth on the signature page hereto) is referred to herein as the “Subscription Amount.”

In connection therewith, and in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, each of the Investor, ARYA and ListCo acknowledges and agrees as follows:

1.       Subscription. The Investor hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from ListCo the number of PIPE Securities set forth on the signature page of this Subscription Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that ListCo reserves the right to accept or reject the Investor’s subscription for the PIPE Securities for any reason or for no reason, in whole or in part, at any time prior to its acceptance, and the same shall be deemed to be accepted by ListCo only when this Subscription Agreement is signed by a duly authorized person by or on behalf of ListCo; ListCo may do so in counterpart form. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the PIPE Securities that will be purchased by the Investor and issued by ListCo on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement, or in the case of the Warrant Shares, on the terms and conditions set forth in each of the Warrant Agreement, shall be securities of a Delaware corporation (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, securities of ARYA, a Cayman Islands exempted company).

2.       Closing. The closing of the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) is contingent upon the substantially concurrent consummation of the Transaction. The Closing shall occur contingent upon, and substantially concurrent with the effectiveness of the Transaction (the date the Closing so occurs, the “Closing Date”). Upon delivery of written notice from (or on behalf of) ListCo to the Investor (the “Closing Notice”), that ListCo reasonably expects all conditions to the closing of the Transaction under the Transaction Agreement to be satisfied or waived on a date that is not less than five (5) business days from the date on which the Closing Notice is delivered to the Investor, the Investor shall deliver to ListCo, three (3) business days prior to the anticipated closing date specified in the Closing Notice, any other information that is reasonably requested in the Closing Notice in order for the PIPE Securities to be issued to the Investor, including, without limitation, the legal name of the person in whose name such securities are to be issued and a duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8, as applicable. On the Closing Date, ListCo shall issue a number of PIPE Securities to the Investor set forth on the signature page to this Subscription Agreement, including by delivering a fully executed Warrant Agreement to the Investor, and subsequently cause the Shares to be registered in book entry form, free and clear of all liens (other than those arising under applicable securities laws), in the name of the Investor on ListCo’s share register. In lieu of paying the Subscription Amount, Investor hereby agrees that it shall not exercise its right to redeem the number of Class A Shares (as defined below) set forth on the signature page hereto, which it currently holds as of the date of this Subscription Agreement, prior to and in connection with the consummation of the Transaction in accordance with Section 16 hereof. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banking institutions in New York, New York are authorized or required to close for business.

(ii)       (A) all conditions precedent to the closing of the Transaction set forth in Article 6 of the Transaction Agreement shall have been satisfied (which shall be deemed satisfied if mutually determined by the applicable parties to the Transaction Agreement and other than those conditions under the Transaction Agreement that, by their nature are to be satisfied in connection with the closing of the Transaction, including to the extent that any such condition is dependent upon the consummation of the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or the Other Subscription Agreements) or waived by the applicable parties to the Transaction Agreement as provided therein and (B) the closing of the Transaction shall be scheduled to occur concurrently with or on the same date as the Closing.

5.        ListCo Representations and Warranties. ListCo represents and warrants to the Investor that:

a.       ListCo is duly incorporated and validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. ListCo has all power (corporate or otherwise) and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as presently conducted and to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement.

b.       As of the Closing Date, the Shares, the Warrants and any Warrant Shares, will be duly authorized and, when issued and delivered to the Investor against full payment therefor in accordance with the terms of this Subscription Agreement or the Warrant Agreement, as applicable, such Shares or Warrant Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will not have been issued in violation of or subject to any preemptive or similar rights created under ListCo’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws (each, as amended on the Closing Date) or under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or under any agreement or instrument to which ListCo is a party. As of the Closing Date, the Warrant Shares will have been duly reserved for issuance in an amount of duly authorized shares of Common Stock that is equal to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the initial exercise of the Warrants.

The Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of any Warrant will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. On the Closing Date, the Warrant Agreement will be duly authorized, and when executed and delivered by ListCo, will constitute the valid and binding agreement of ListCo and will be enforceable against ListCo in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

c.       This Subscription Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered by ListCo and, assuming that this Subscription Agreement constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the Investor and ARYA, this Subscription Agreement is enforceable against ListCo in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

d.       The sale and issuance of the PIPE Securities and the compliance by ListCo with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the Warrant Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, including the issuance of the Warrant Shares, will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of ListCo or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is subject that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the validity of the PIPE Securities, including the Warrant Shares, or legal authority of ListCo to comply in all material respects with the terms of this Subscription Agreement, the Warrant Agreement or the Transaction (a “ListCo Material Adverse Effect”); (ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of ListCo; or (iii) result in any violation of any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over ListCo or any of its properties that would reasonably be expected to have a ListCo Material Adverse Effect.

e.       As of the date of this Subscription Agreement, the authorized share capital of ListCo (excluding the PIPE Securities) consists of one thousand (1,000) shares of Common Stock and the issued share capital of ListCo consists of one (1) share of Common Stock, which (A) has been duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, (B) has been issued in compliance with applicable law and (C) has not been issued in breach or violation of any preemptive rights or contract.

Except as set forth above and pursuant to the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement and the other agreements and arrangements referred to therein, as of the date hereof, there are no outstanding options, warrants or other rights to subscribe for, purchase or acquire from ListCo any equity interests in ListCo, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such equity interests. As of the date hereof, ListCo has no subsidiaries and does not own, directly or indirectly, interests or investments (whether equity or debt) in any person, whether incorporated or unincorporated.

f.         Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Investor, ListCo is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by ListCo of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance by ListCo of the PIPE Securities or any Warrant Shares), other than (i) filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), (ii) filings required by applicable state securities laws, (iii) filings required by Nasdaq, or such other applicable stock exchange on which ListCo’s common equity will be listed (the “Stock Exchange”), (iv) those required to consummate the Transaction as provided under the Transaction Agreement, and (v) those of which the failure to obtain would not be reasonably likely to have a ListCo Material Adverse Effect.

g.        As of the date hereof, there is no suit, action, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of ListCo, threatened against ListCo by the Stock Exchange or the SEC, respectively, to prohibit the listing of the Shares and Warrant Shares, or the registration of, when issued in connection with the closing of the Transaction, the Shares and Warrant Shares under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

h.         Assuming the accuracy of the Investor’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 7, no registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) is required for the offer and sale of the PIPE Securities by ListCo to the Investor hereunder.

i.          Except for such matters as have not had and would not be reasonably likely to have a ListCo Material Adverse Effect, as of the date hereof, there is no (i) action, suit, claim or other proceeding, in each case by or before any governmental authority pending, or, to the knowledge of ListCo, threatened against ListCo or (ii) judgment, decree, injunction, ruling or order of any governmental entity or arbitrator outstanding against ListCo.

j.         ListCo has not engaged any broker, finder, commission agent, placement agent or arranger in connection with the sale of the PIPE Securities, and ListCo is not under any obligation to pay any broker’s fee or commission in connection with the sale of the PIPE Securities other than to the Placement Agent at Closing.

k.        ListCo acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Shares and Warrant Shares may be pledged by Investor in connection with a bona fide margin agreement, provided such pledge shall be (i) pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or (ii) pursuant to, and in accordance with, a registration statement that is effective under the Securities Act at the time of such pledge, and the Investor effecting a pledge of the Shares and Warrant Shares shall not be required to provide ListCo with any notice thereof; provided, however, that neither ListCo, ARYA, the Company or their respective counsels shall be required to take any action (or refrain from taking any action) in connection with any such pledge, other than providing any such lender of such margin agreement with an acknowledgment that the Shares and Warrant Shares are not subject to any contractual prohibition on pledging or lock up, the form of such acknowledgment to be subject to review and comment by ListCo in all respects.

l.        Other than the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement and any other agreement contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, as of the date hereof, ListCo has not entered into any side letter or similar agreement with any Other Investor or any other investor in connection with such Other Investor’s or investor’s direct or indirect investment in ListCo (other than any side letter or similar agreement relating to the transfer to any investor of securities to be issued to the direct or indirect securityholders of the Company pursuant to the Transaction Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that ListCo may enter into additional subscription agreements after the date hereof; provided, however, that if any such agreement is with respect to equity financing, then any such agreement shall be on substantially the same terms and at an effective offering price no less than as provided for pursuant to this subscription Agreement.

b.       This Subscription Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered by ARYA and, assuming that this Subscription Agreement constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the Investor and ListCo, this Subscription Agreement is enforceable against ARYA in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

There are no shareholder agreements, voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to which ARYA is a party or by which it is bound relating to the voting of any securities of ARYA, other than (1) as set forth in the SEC Reports and (2) as contemplated by the Transaction Agreement. Except as set forth above and pursuant to the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement and the other agreements and arrangements referred to therein, as of the date hereof, there are no outstanding options, warrants or other rights to subscribe for, purchase or acquire from ARYA any Class A Shares, Class B Shares or other equity interests in ARYA, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such equity interests.

ARYA has timely filed the SEC Reports with the SEC through the date hereof (after giving effect to any applicable grace period). As of their respective filing dates all SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Reports. None of the SEC Reports filed under the Exchange Act (except to the extent that information contained in any SEC Report has been superseded by a later timely filed SEC Report) contained, when filed or, if amended, as of the date of such amendment with respect to those disclosures that are amended, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

There are no outstanding or unresolved comments in comment letters from the staff of the SEC with respect to any of the SEC Reports. For the avoidance of doubt, any restatement of the financial statements of ARYA and any amendments to previously filed SEC Reports or delays in filing SEC Reports, in connection with any guidance from the SEC following the date of this Subscription Agreement, shall not be deemed to constitute a breach of this Section 6.d). Additionally, for avoidance of doubt, any amendment or modification of any SEC Report (or any agreement filed as an exhibit to any SEC Report) from its initial filing date in a subsequent filing shall not be deemed to constitute a breach of this Section 6.d).

e.       The sale and issuance of the PIPE Securities and the compliance by ARYA with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, including the issuance of the Warrant Shares, will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of ARYA or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which ARYA or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which ARYA or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of ARYA or any of its subsidiaries is subject that would reasonably be expected to materially affect or legal authority of ARYA to comply in all material respects with the terms of this Subscription Agreement or the Transaction an (an “ARYA Material Adverse Effect”); (ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of ARYA; or (iii) result in any violation of any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over ARYA or any of its properties that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

f.       Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Investor, ARYA is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by ARYA of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance by ListCo of the PIPE Securities or any Warrant Shares), other than (i) filings with the SEC, (ii) filings required by applicable state securities laws, (iii) filings required by the Stock Exchange, (iv) those required to consummate the Transaction as provided under the Transaction Agreement, and (v) those of which the failure to obtain would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, an ARYA Material Adverse Effect.

g.       Other than the Placement Agent, ARYA has not engaged any broker, finder, commission agent, placement agent or arranger in connection with the sale of the PIPE Securities, and ARYA is not under any obligation to pay any broker’s fee or commission in connection with the sale of the PIPE Securities other than to the Placement Agent.

h.       Other than the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement and any other agreement contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, ARYA has not entered into any side letter or similar agreement with any Other Investor or any other investor in connection with such Other Investor’s or investor’s direct or indirect investment in ARYA (other than any side letter or similar agreement relating to the transfer to any investor of securities to be issued to the direct or indirect securityholders of the Company pursuant to the Transaction Agreement). The Other Subscription Agreements have not been amended or modified in any material respect following the date of this Subscription Agreement.

i.       The issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act and are listed for trading on the Stock Exchange. Except for such matters as have not had and would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, as of the date hereof, there is no (i) action, suit, claim or other proceeding, in each case by or before any governmental authority pending, or, to the knowledge of ARYA, threatened against ARYA or (ii) judgment, decree, injunction, ruling or order of any governmental entity or arbitrator outstanding against ARYA.

The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the PIPE Securities and Warrant Shares will not immediately be eligible for offer, resale, transfer or disposition pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”). The Investor acknowledges and agrees that it has been advised to consult legal counsel and tax and accounting advisors prior to making any offer, resale, transfer, pledge, transfer or disposition of any of the PIPE Securities or Warrant Shares. The Investor further acknowledges that the Warrants will be non-transferable prior to the exercise thereof.

d.       The Investor’s acquisition and holding of the PIPE Securities will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any applicable similar law.

e.       The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Investor has received such information as the Investor deems necessary in order to make an investment decision with respect to the PIPE Securities, including, without limitation, with respect to ARYA, the Transaction and the business of the Company and its subsidiaries. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Investor acknowledges that it has reviewed the SEC Reports. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Investor and the Investor’s professional advisor(s), if any, have had the full opportunity to ask such questions, receive such answers and obtain such information as the Investor and the Investor’s professional advisor(s), if any, deemed necessary to make an investment decision with respect to the PIPE Securities.

f.       The Investor became aware of this offering of the PIPE Securities solely by means of direct contact between the Investor, ARYA, ListCo or the Company or a representative of ARYA, ListCo or the Company, and the PIPE Securities were offered to the Investor solely by direct contact between the Investor and ARYA, ListCo or the Company or a representative of ListCo, ARYA or the Company. The Investor did not become aware of this offering of the PIPE Securities, nor were the PIPE Securities offered to the Investor, by any other means and none of ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agent or their respective representatives or any person acting on behalf of any of them acted as investment advisor, broker or dealer to the Investor. The Investor acknowledges that the PIPE Securities (i) were not offered by any form of general solicitation or general advertising and (ii) are not being offered in a manner involving a public offering under, or in a distribution in violation of, the Securities Act, or any state securities laws. The Investor acknowledges that it is not relying upon, and has not relied upon, any statement, representation or warranty made by any person, firm or corporation (including, without limitation, ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agent, any of its respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing), other than the representations and warranties of ListCo and ARYA contained in Section 5 and Section 6 of this Subscription Agreement, in making its investment or decision to invest in ListCo.

g.       The Investor acknowledges that it is aware that there are substantial risks incident to the purchase and ownership of the PIPE Securities, including, without limitation, those set forth in the SEC Reports. The Investor has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the PIPE Securities, and the Investor has had an opportunity to seek, and has sought such accounting, legal, business and tax advice as the Investor has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision and the Investor has made its own assessment and satisfied itself concerning relevant tax and other economic considerations relative to its purchase of the PIPE Securities. The Investor (i) is an institutional account as defined in FINRA Rule 4512(c), (ii) is a sophisticated investor, experienced in investing in private equity transactions and capable of evaluating investment risks independently, both in general and with regard to all transactions and investment strategies involving a security or securities, and (iii) has exercised independent judgment in evaluating its participation in the purchase of the PIPE Securities.

h.       Alone, or together with any professional advisor(s), the Investor has adequately analyzed and fully considered the risks of an investment in the PIPE Securities and determined that the PIPE Securities are a suitable investment for the Investor and that the Investor is able at this time and in the foreseeable future to bear the economic risk of a total loss of the Investor’s investment in ListCo. The Investor acknowledges specifically that a possibility of total loss exists.

i.        In making its decision to purchase the PIPE Securities, the Investor has relied solely upon independent investigation made by the Investor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Investor has not relied on any statements or other information provided by or on behalf of the Placement Agent or any of its respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing concerning ListCo, the Company, the Transaction, the Transaction Agreement, this Subscription Agreement, the Warrant Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the PIPE Securities or the offer and sale of the PIPE Securities.

j.       The Investor acknowledges and agrees that no federal or state agency has passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the PIPE Securities or made any findings or determination as to the fairness of this investment.

m.       The Investor is not (i) a person or entity named on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons, the Executive Order 13599 List, the Foreign Sanctions Evaders List, or the Sectoral Sanctions Identification List, each of which is administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) or in any Executive Order issued by the President of the United States and administered by OFAC (“OFAC List”), or a person or entity prohibited by any OFAC sanctions program, (ii) owned, directly or indirectly, or controlled by, or acting on behalf of, one or more persons that are named on the OFAC Lists; (iii) organized, incorporated, established, located, resident or born in, or a citizen, national or the government, including any political subdivision, agency or instrumentality thereof, of Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russia, Syria, the Crimea, Donetsk or Luhansk regions of Ukraine or any other country or territory embargoed or subject to substantial trade restrictions by the United States, (iv) a Designated National as defined in the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R.

8.       Registration Rights.

a.             In the event that the Shares and the Warrant Shares (such securities, the “PIPE Registrable Securities”) are not registered in connection with the consummation of the Transaction, ListCo agrees that, within forty-five (45) calendar days after the consummation of the Transaction (the “Filing Date”), it will file with the SEC (at its sole cost and expense) a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) registering the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities, and it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) ninety (90) calendar days after the filing thereof (or one hundred-twenty (120) calendar days after the filing thereof if the SEC notifies ListCo that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the Filing Date and (ii) ten (10) business days after ListCo 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. ListCo agrees to cause such Registration Statement, or another shelf registration statement that includes the PIPE Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, to remain effective until the earliest of (i) the date that is five years and six months following the Closing, (ii) the date on which the Investor ceases to hold any PIPE Registrable Securities or Warrants issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, or (iii) on the first date on which the Investor is able to sell all of its PIPE Registrable Securities issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares received in exchange therefor) under Rule 144 within 90 days without the public information, volume or manner limitations of such rule. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the SEC prevents ListCo from including any or all of the shares proposed to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities by the applicable stockholders or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of PIPE Registrable Securities which is equal to the maximum number of PIPE Registrable Securities as is permitted by the SEC. In such event, the number of PIPE Registrable Securities to be registered for each selling stockholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling stockholders. In no event shall the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless in response to a comment or request from the staff of the SEC or another regulatory agency; provided, however, that if the SEC requests that the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, the Investor will have an opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement. The Investor agrees to disclose its ownership to ListCo upon request to assist it in making the determination described above. If the PIPE Registrable Securities are eligible to be sold under Rule 144 within 90 days without the public information, volume or manner limitations of such rule, or the Registration Statement covering the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities is effective (and the Investor and its broker provide ListCo and its transfer agent with customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to ListCo and its transfer agent in connection therewith), then at the Investor’s request, ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to remove the restrictive legend described in Section 7(b) from the PIPE Registrable Securities. For as long as the Registration Statement shall remain effective pursuant to this Section 8.a), ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to (1) qualify the PIPE Registrable Securities for listing on the Stock Exchange and (2) update or amend the Registration Statement as necessary to include the Shares sold hereby for resale. For as long as the Investor holds the PIPE Registrable Securities, ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to file all reports, and provide all customary and reasonable cooperation, necessary to enable the Investor to resell the PIPE Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or Rule 144 (when Rule 144 becomes available to the Investor), as applicable. ListCo may amend the Registration Statement so as to convert the Registration Statement to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 at such time after ListCo becomes eligible to use such Form S-3. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that ListCo may suspend the use of any such Registration Statement if it determines that in order for such Registration Statement not to contain a material misstatement or omission, an amendment thereto would be needed, if such filing would require the inclusion, in such Registration Statement, of financial statements that are unavailable to ListCo for reasons beyond ListCo’s control or use could materially affect a bona fide business or financing transaction of ListCo or would require premature disclosure of information that would adversely affect ListCo and that would at that time not otherwise be required in a current, quarterly, or annual report under the Exchange Act; provided, that (i) ListCo shall not so delay filing or so suspend the use of a registration statement for a period of more than ninety (90) consecutive days or more than a total of one hundred and eighty (180) calendar days, in each case in any three hundred and sixty (360) day period and (ii) ListCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make such Registration Statement available for the sale by the Investor of such securities as soon as practicable thereafter. ListCo’s obligations to include the PIPE Registrable Securities issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares issued in exchange therefor) for resale in the Registration Statement are contingent upon the Investor furnishing in writing to ListCo such information regarding the Investor, the securities of ListCo held by the Investor and the intended method of disposition of such PIPE Registrable Securities, which shall be limited to non-underwritten public offerings, as shall be reasonably requested by ListCo to effect the registration of such PIPE Registrable Securities, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as ListCo may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations.

b.           ListCo shall advise the Investor within two (2) business days (at ListCo’s expense): (i) when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose; (iv) of the receipt by ListCo of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the PIPE Registrable Securities included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and (v) subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading. Upon receipt of any written notice from ListCo (which notice shall not contain any material non-public information regarding ListCo) of the happening of any event contemplated in clauses (ii) through (v) above during the period that the Registration Statement is effective or if as a result of the occurrence of such event the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, the Investor agrees that (1) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the PIPE Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until the Investor receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which ListCo agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by ListCo that it may resume such offers and sales, and (2) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by ListCo except (A) for disclosure to the Investor’s employees, agents and professional advisers who need to know such information and are obligated to keep it confidential, (B) for disclosures to the extent required in order to comply with reporting obligations to its limited partners who have agreed to keep such information confidential and (C) as required by law or subpoena. ListCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable. Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated in clauses (ii) through (v) above, except for such times as ListCo is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, ListCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the PIPE Registrable Securities included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

c.            Indemnification.

(i)       ListCo agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, the Investor, its directors, and officers, employees, and agents, and each person who controls the Investor (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and each affiliate of the Investor (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus included 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 furnished in writing to ListCo by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein.

(ii)       The Investor agrees, severally and not jointly with any other person that is a party to the Other Subscription Agreements, to indemnify and hold harmless ListCo, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls ListCo (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any 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 or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of the Investor be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Investor upon the sale of the PIPE Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(iii)       Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (1) 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 right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (2) 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. An indemnifying party who elects not to assume the defense of a claim 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 legal counsel to any indemnified party a conflict of interest exists between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which (1) 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), (2) 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, or (3) contains any statement of fault or culpability.

(iv)       The indemnification provided for under this Subscription 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, employee, agent, affiliate or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the PIPE Registrable Securities.

(v)       If the indemnification provided under this Section 8.c) from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and 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 relates to information supplied by or on behalf of, 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. 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 above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 8.c) from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In no event shall the liability of the Investor pursuant to this Section 8.c)(v) be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Investor upon the sale of the PIPE Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation, and such obligations of the Investor shall be several and not joint.

9.      Termination. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earliest to occur of (a) such date and time as the Transaction Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (c) ListCo’s notification to the Investor in writing that it has, with the written consent of the Company, abandoned its plans to move forward with the Transaction and/or terminated the Investor’s obligations with respect to the subscription without the delivery of the Shares having occurred, and (d) the delivery of a notice of termination of this Subscription Agreement by the Investor to ListCo and ARYA on the Termination Date (as defined in the Transaction Agreement, and such thirtieth calendar day, the “Outside Date”), if the Closing has not occurred by the Termination Date (provided, that the right to terminate this Subscription Agreement pursuant to this clause (d) shall not be available to the Investor if the Investor’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations under this Subscription Agreement (or if an affiliate of the Investor is an Other Investor, and such Other Investor’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations under an Other Subscription Agreement), either individually or in the aggregate, shall have proximately caused the failure of the consummation of the Transaction on or before the Termination Date) (the termination events described in clauses (a)–(d) above, collectively, the “Termination Events”); provided that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful and material breach of any covenant, agreement, obligation, representation or warranty hereunder prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from any such willful and material breach. ListCo shall notify the Investor of the termination of the Transaction Agreement as promptly as practicable after the termination of the Transaction Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any Termination Event, this Subscription Agreement shall be void and of no further effect and any monies paid by the Investor to ListCo in connection herewith shall promptly (and in any event within one (1) business day) following the Termination Event be returned to the Investor.

10.      Trust Account Waiver. The Investor acknowledges that ARYA is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving ARYA and one or more businesses or assets. The Investor further acknowledges that, as described in ARYA’s final prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated February 25, 2021 (the “Final Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of ARYA’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of ARYA’s initial public offering and private placement of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of ARYA, its public shareholders and the underwriters of ARYA’s initial public offering. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to ARYA to pay its tax obligations, if any, the cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only for the purposes set forth in the Final Prospectus. For and in consideration of ARYA entering into this Subscription Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Investor, on behalf of itself and its representatives, hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind it has or may have in the future, in or to any monies held in the Trust Account (or distributions therefrom to ARYA’s public shareholders or to the underwriters of ARYA’s initial public offering in respect of their deferred underwriting commissions held in the Trust Account), and agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 10 shall be deemed to limit the Investor’s right, title, interest or claim to any monies held in the Trust Account by virtue of its record or beneficial ownership of publicly traded Class A Shares acquired in an open market transaction, pursuant to a validly exercised redemption right with respect to any such Class A Shares, in accordance with ARYA’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended in connection with the shareholder meeting of ARYA on February 28, 2023 and as may be subsequently amended from time to time, and the Investment Management Trust Agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company and ARYA, dated March 2, 2021, except to the extent that the Investor has otherwise agreed in writing with ListCo, ARYA, the Company or any of their respective affiliates to not exercise such redemption right.

11.      Miscellaneous.

a.       Neither this Subscription Agreement nor any rights that may accrue to the Investor hereunder (other than the PIPE Securities acquired hereunder and the rights set forth in Section 8 solely in connection with a transfer of such PIPE Securities (other than a transfer in connection with a sale pursuant to either an effective registration statement or under Rule 144), if any) may be transferred or assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after notifying ListCo, Investor may assign its rights and obligations under this Subscription Agreement to one or more of its affiliates (including other investment funds or accounts managed or advised by the investment manager who acts on behalf of Investor) or, with the Company’s prior written consent, to another person, provided that no such assignment shall relieve Investor of its obligations hereunder if any such assignee fails to perform such obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Warrants may not be transferred by the holder thereof following their issuance.

b.       ListCo may request from the Investor such additional information as ListCo may deem necessary to register the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities and evaluate the eligibility of the Investor to acquire the PIPE Securities, and the Investor shall provide any such information as may be reasonably requested. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other covenants or agreements in this Subscription Agreement, the Investor acknowledges that ListCo and ARYA may file a copy of this Subscription Agreement and Warrant Agreement with the SEC as an exhibit to a periodic report or a registration statement of ListCo or ARYA.

c.       The Investor acknowledges that ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agent and others will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement, including Schedule A hereto. Prior to the Closing, the Investor agrees to promptly notify ListCo, ARYA, the Company and the Placement Agent in writing if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations or warranties set forth in Section 7 above are no longer accurate in any material respect (other than those acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties qualified by materiality, in which case the Investor shall notify ListCo, ARYA, the Company and the Placement Agent if they are no longer accurate in any respect). The Investor acknowledges and agrees that each purchase by the Investor of PIPE Securities from ListCo will constitute a reaffirmation of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties herein by the Investor as of the time of such purchase.

d.       The Investor agrees that, from the date hereof until the Closing or the earlier termination of this Subscription Agreement, none of the Investor or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or pursuant to any understanding with the Investor will engage in any hedging or other transactions or arrangements (including, without limitation, any short sale or the purchase or sale of, or entry into, any put or call option, or combination thereof, forward, swap or any other derivative transaction or similar instrument, including without limitation equity repurchase agreements and securities lending arrangements, however described or defined) designed or intended, or which could reasonably be expected to lead to or result in, a sale, loan, pledge or other disposition or transfer (whether by the Investor or any other person), in each case, solely to the extent it has the same economic effect as a “short sale” (as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act), of any economic consequences of ownership (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any consequences resulting solely from foreign exchange fluctuations), in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, physically or synthetically, of any PIPE Securities or any securities of ARYA prior to the Closing, whether any such transaction or arrangement (or instrument provided for thereunder) would be settled by delivery of securities of ARYA, in cash or otherwise, or to publicly disclose the intention to undertake any of the foregoing; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 11.d) shall not apply to long sales (including sales of securities held by the Investor, its controlled affiliates or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or any of its controlled affiliates prior to the date hereof and securities purchased by the Investor in the open market after the date hereof) other than those effectuated through derivative transactions and similar instruments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 11.d) (i) shall prohibit any entities under common management with the Investor that have no knowledge (constructive or otherwise) of this Subscription Agreement or of Investor’s participation in the transactions contemplated hereby from entering into any of the transactions set forth in the first sentence of this Section 11.d); and (ii) in the case of an Investor that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers or desks manage separate portions of such Investor’s assets and the portfolio managers have no knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Investor’s assets, this Section 11.d) shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the PIPE Securities covered by this Subscription Agreement.

e.       ListCo, ARYA and the Placement Agent are each entitled to rely upon this Subscription Agreement and each is irrevocably authorized to produce this Subscription Agreement or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby; provided, however, that the foregoing clause of this Section 11.e) shall not give the Placement Agent any rights other than those expressly set forth herein and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be entitled to rely on any of the representations and warranties of ListCo or ARYA set forth in this Subscription Agreement.

f.       All of the agreements, representations and warranties made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing.

g.       This Subscription Agreement may not be terminated other than pursuant to the terms of Section 9 above. The provisions of this Subscription Agreement may not be modified, amended or waived except by an instrument in writing, signed by each of the parties hereto; provided, however, that no modification, amendment or waiver by ListCo of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall be effective without the prior written consent of ARYA (other than modifications, amendments or waivers that are solely ministerial in nature or otherwise immaterial and, in each case, do not affect any economic or any other material term of this Subscription Agreement). No failure or delay of either party hereto in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have hereunder.

h.       This Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the schedule hereto and the Warrant Agreement attached hereto) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except as set forth in Section 3.b), Section 7, Section 9, Section 11.c), Section 11.e), Section 11.g), this Section 11.h) and the last sentence of Section 11.l) with respect to the persons specifically referenced therein, this Subscription Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto, and their respective successors and assigns, and the parties hereto acknowledge that such persons so referenced are third party beneficiaries of this Subscription Agreement with right of enforcement for the purposes of, and to the extent of, the rights granted to them, if any, pursuant to the applicable provisions.

i.       Except as otherwise provided herein, this Subscription Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives, and permitted assigns, and the agreements, representations, warranties, covenants and acknowledgments contained herein shall be deemed to be made by, and be binding upon, such heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.

j.       If any provision of this Subscription Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.

k.       This Subscription Agreement may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts (including, without limitation, by facsimile or electronic mail or in .pdf) and by different parties in separate counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document. All counterparts so executed and delivered shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same agreement.

l.       The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur if any of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Subscription Agreement, without posting a bond or undertaking and without proof of damages, to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Subscription Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Company shall be entitled to seek to specifically enforce the Investor’s obligations hereunder, ListCo’s obligations under this Subscription Agreement and the provisions of the Subscription Agreement of which the Company is an express third party beneficiary, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

m.       Any notice or communication required or permitted hereunder to be given to the Investor shall be in writing and either delivered personally, emailed or sent by overnight mail via a reputable overnight carrier, or sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, to such address(es) or email address(es) set forth on the signature page hereto, and shall be deemed to be given and received (i) when so delivered personally, (ii) when sent, with no mail undeliverable or other rejection notice, if sent by email, or (iii) three (3) business days after the date of mailing to the address below or to such other address or addresses as the Investor may hereafter designate by notice given hereunder:

o.       The Investor hereby acknowledges that the Placement Agent and/or its respective affiliates may now or in the future own securities of ARYA and/or purchase securities in the Transaction.

12.       Non-Reliance and Exculpation. The Investor acknowledges that it is not relying upon, and has not relied upon, any statement, representation or warranty made by any person, firm or corporation (including, without limitation, the Placement Agent, any of its respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing), other than the statements, representations and warranties of ListCo expressly contained in Section 5 and ARYA expressly contained in Section 6 of this Subscription Agreement, in making its investment or decision to invest in ListCo. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that none of (i) any other investor pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or any other subscription agreement related to the private placement of the PIPE Securities (including the investor’s respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing), (ii) the Placement Agent, its respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing, or (iii) any other party to the Transaction Agreement or any Non-Party Affiliate, shall have any liability to the Investor, or to any other investor, pursuant to, arising out of or relating to this Subscription Agreement or any other subscription agreement related to the private placement of the PIPE Securities, the negotiation hereof or thereof or its subject matter, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including, without limitation, with respect to any action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the purchase of the PIPE Securities or with respect to any claim (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) for breach of this Subscription Agreement or in respect of any written or oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith, as expressly provided herein, or for any actual or alleged inaccuracies, misstatements or omissions with respect to any information or materials of any kind furnished by ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agent or any Non-Party Affiliate concerning ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agent, any of its respective controlled affiliates, this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “Non-Party Affiliates” means each former, current or future officer, director, employee, partner, member, manager, direct or indirect equityholder or affiliate of ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agent or any of ListCo’s, ARYA’s, the Company’s or the Placement Agent’s respective controlled affiliates or any family member of the foregoing.

14.       Disclosure. ARYA shall on the first (1st) business day following the date of this Subscription Agreement, issue one or more press releases or file with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K (collectively, the “Disclosure Document”) disclosing all material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction and any other material, nonpublic information that ARYA has provided to the Investor at any time prior to the filing of the Disclosure Document. Upon the issuance of the Disclosure Document, to the actual knowledge of ARYA, the Investor shall not be in possession of any material, non-public information received from ARYA, the Company or any of their officers, directors, or employees or agents, and the Investor shall no longer be subject to any confidentiality or similar obligations under any current agreement, whether written or oral with ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agents or any of their affiliates, relating to the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement, the Warrant Agreement, the Other Subscription Agreements or the Transaction Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Subscription Agreement to the contrary, ARYA shall not publicly disclose the name of the Investor or any of its affiliates or advisers or include the name of the Investor or any of its affiliates or advisers in any press release without the prior written consent of the Investor except as required by the federal securities law or pursuant to other routine proceedings of regulatory authorities, or to the extent such disclosure is required by law, at the request of the staff of the SEC or regulatory agency or under the rules and regulations of the Stock Exchange, in which case ARYA will provide Investor with prior written notice (including by e-mail) of such disclosure to the extent such announcements or other communications contain only information previously disclosed in a public statement, press release or other communication that was approved by the Investor in accordance with this Section 14.

15.       Several Obligations. The obligations of the Investor and each Other Investor in connection with the private placement are several and not joint, and Investor shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any Other Investor in connection with the private placement. Nothing contained herein or in any Other Subscription Agreement, and no action taken by Investor or any Other Investor pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investor and Other Investor as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investor and Other Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated hereby.

16.       Non-Redemption Agreement. As of the date of this Subscription Agreement, the Investor represents that it is the shareholder of the number of Class A Shares set forth on the signature page hereto (the “Investor ARYA Shares”). The Investor represents and warrants that it has good, marketable and unencumbered title to the Investor ARYA Shares, free and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges, encumbrances, adverse claims, rights or proxies. The Investor and its affiliates agree (i) not to sell or transfer any of the Investor ARYA Shares prior to the closing of the Transaction and (ii) not to redeem any Investor ARYA Shares prior to or in connection with the Transaction. On the Closing Date, Investor shall deliver evidence reasonably satisfactory to ListCo that Investor continues to hold the Investor ARYA Shares and has not tendered such shares for redemption.

Subscription Agreement:	This Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (“Warrant”) is issued pursuant to that certain Subscription Agreement, dated as of February [●], 2024, by and among the Company, ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, a Cayman Islands exempted company, and the Holder (as may be further amended and/or modified and in effect from time to time, the “Subscription Agreement”). Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Subscription Agreement.

THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES THAT, for good and valuable consideration, [HOLDER] (together with any successor or permitted assignee or transferee of this Warrant, “Holder”) is entitled to purchase up to [●] shares of fully paid and non-assessable common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Aja Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), at the Warrant Price, all as set forth above and subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Warrant.

1.       Warrants.

a.       Form of Warrant. This Warrant, together with all of the other warrants to purchase Common Stock (such shares of Common Stock, the “Warrant Shares”) issued pursuant to the Other Subscription Agreements, including any warrants issued upon the transfer of such warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”), shall be issued in certificated form.

b.           Registration.

(i)       Warrant Register. The Company shall maintain books (the “Warrant Register”), for the registration of original issuance and the registration of transfer of this Warrant. Upon the initial issuance of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and register this Warrant in the name of the Holder. The Company shall provide 30 days’ prior written notice to the Holder of any appointment of or change in warrant agent and the new warrant agent’s contact information, including if the Company shall itself directly maintain the Warrant Register after a third-party warrant agent has been appointed.

This Warrant shall be signed by the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary or other principal officer of the Company. In the event the person whose signature has been placed upon this Warrant shall have ceased to serve in the capacity in which such person signed the Warrant before such Warrant is issued, it may be issued with the same effect as if he or she had not ceased to be such at the date of issuance.

(ii)        Registered Holder. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Warrant, the Company may deem and treat the person in whose name such Warrant is registered in the Warrant Register (the “Registered Holder”) as the absolute owner of such Warrant and of each Warrant represented thereby (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing on any physical certificate made by anyone other than the Company), for the purpose of any exercise thereof, and for all other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

(iii)       Registration of Transfer.    Subject to compliance with the legend set forth on the face of this Warrant, the Company shall register the valid transfer, in whole or in part, from time to time, of this Warrant upon the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant for transfer and a duly completed and executed written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly executed by the Registered Holder or its agent or attorney. Upon any such transfer, a new Warrant representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants shall be issued and the old Warrant shall be cancelled by the Company. Upon any partial transfer, the Company shall at its expense issue and deliver to the Registered Holder a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the Registered Holder, which shall be exercisable for such number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which rights under this Warrant were not so transferred. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Registered Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Registered Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Registered Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within two (2) Trading Days of the date on which the Registered Holder delivers a duly completed and executed written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B to the Company assigning this Warrant in full.

(iv)       Transferability. This Warrant may not be transferred except for transfers to an affiliate (as defined in the Subscription Agreement) of the Holder or with the written consent of the Company.

c.       Procedure for Surrender of Warrants. This Warrant may be surrendered to the Company, together with a written request for exchange or transfer, and thereupon the Company shall issue in exchange therefor one or more new Warrants as requested by the Registered Holder of the Warrants so surrendered, representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants; provided, however, that if the Warrant so surrendered bears a restrictive legend, the Company shall not cancel such Warrant and issue new Warrants in exchange thereof until the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company stating that such transfer may be made and indicating whether the new Warrants must also bear a restrictive legend.

2.       Terms and Exercise of Warrants.

a.           Warrant Price. This Warrant shall entitle the Registered Holder, subject to the provisions hereof, to purchase from the Company the number of shares of Common Stock set forth above, at the price of $10.00 per share, subject to the adjustments provided in Section 3 hereof. The term “Warrant Price” as used in this Warrant shall mean the price per share of each Warrant Share that may be purchased at the time the Warrant is exercised.

b.           Duration of Warrants. A Warrant may be exercised only during the period (the “Exercise Period”) commencing on the Original Issue Date, and terminating at 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the date that is five (5) years after the Original Issue Date; provided, however, that the exercise of any Warrant shall be subject to the satisfaction of any applicable conditions set forth in this Warrant. Each outstanding Warrant not exercised on or before the Expiration Date shall become void, and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under such outstanding Warrant shall cease at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Expiration Date.

c. Exercise of Warrants.

(i)        Payment. Subject to the provisions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder hereof, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the initial issuance date during the Exercise Period, by delivery of a duly executed PDF copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Warrant Exercise attached hereto as Exhibit A, duly executed, and by paying in full the Warrant Price for each full Warrant Share as to which this Warrant is exercised, the exchange of this Warrant for Warrant Shares and the issuance of such Warrant Shares in lawful money of the United States, by (i) wire transfer or in good certified check or good bank draft payable to the Company or (ii) or by “cashless exercise” in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) below. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Registered Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Registered Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Registered Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within five (5) Trading Days of the date the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise Form within one (1) trading day of receipt of such notice. The Registered Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

(1)       Cashless Exercise. If at the time of exercise hereof following the one-year anniversary of the Form 10 Disclosure Filing Date (as defined below) there is no effective registration statement registering the Warrant Shares, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Registered Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Registered Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:

(A) = as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Registered Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the Bid Price of the Common Stock on the principal Stock Exchange as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) as of the time of the Registered Holder’s execution of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a) hereof or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both executed and delivered pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;

(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and

(X) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of the portion of this Warrant specified in the Notice of Exercise in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.

If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the holding period of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Warrant. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this subsection 2.3.1(a).

“Bid Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Stock Exchange, the bid price of the Common Stock for the time in question (or the nearest preceding date) on the Stock Exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Stock Exchange, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Purchasers of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

“VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Stock Exchange, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Stock Exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Stock Exchange, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Purchasers of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

“Form 10 Disclosure Filing Date” means the date on which the Company shall file with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K (or any other applicable form) that includes current “Form 10 information” (within the meaning of Rule 144) reflecting the Company’s status as an entity that is no longer an issuer described in paragraph (i)(1)(i) of Rule 144.

(2)       Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Registered Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Registered Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Registered Holder; provided, however, that, in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Registered Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly executed by the Registered Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.

(ii)       Issuance of Warrant Shares on Exercise. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant and the clearance of the funds in payment of the Warrant Price (if payment is pursuant to subsection (i)), the Company shall issue to the Registered Holder a book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, for the number of shares of Warrant Shares to which he, she or it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by him, her or it, and if this Warrant shall not have been exercised in full, a new countersigned Warrant for the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant shall not have been exercised. If at the time of exercise of this Warrant, the Warrant Shares are not registered for resale pursuant to the Securities Act then such purchased Warrant Shares issued to a Registered Holder upon payment of the Warrant Price pursuant to subsection (i) shall bear a restrictive legend in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C. Warrants may not be exercised by, or securities issued to, any Registered Holder in any state in which such exercise would be unlawful. In the event that a Registered Holder reasonably determines that a consent, approval or authorization of, or designation, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Entity under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or under any other applicable antitrust or competition Laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction or any other merger control or investment Laws (collectively, “Antitrust Laws”) is required, then the making of any appropriate filings, the taking or causing to be taken of any required actions, and the expiration or the termination of the applicable waiting period, review period or comparable period, in each case as applicable under any such applicable Antitrust Laws, shall be a condition to the issuance of the Common Stock and the Company shall provide all reasonable assistance requested by the Registered Holder in connection with any required filings or actions under the applicable Antitrust Laws. The Company shall not take any action that would cause a Registered Holder’s ownership percentage of voting securities of the Company (as defined or interpreted under the applicable Antitrust Laws) to increase without providing notice to such Registered Holders for each to determine whether any filing, consent, approval or authorization of, or designation, declaration or filing with any Governmental Entity could be triggered under the applicable Antitrust Laws by the proposed Company action. If any Registered Holder determines that the proposed Company action requires clearance, approval or authorization under the applicable Antitrust Laws, then the obtaining of required clearance, approval or authorization, or the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period, review period or comparable period, as applicable, under the applicable Antitrust Laws shall be a condition to the Company taking its proposed action. If at any time a Registered Holder determines that it has a filing requirement or other requirement or obligation under the applicable Antitrust Laws, then the Company shall provide all reasonable assistance to such Registered Holder as reasonably requested by that Registered Holder in connection with any required filings or actions to be made or taken under the applicable Antitrust Laws. “Governmental Entity” as used in this subsection 2.3.2 shall mean any United States or non-United States (a) federal, state, local, municipal or other government, (b) governmental or quasi-governmental entity of any nature (including any governmental agency, branch, department, official, or entity and any court or other tribunal) or (c) body exercising or entitled to exercise any administrative, executive, judicial, legislative, police, regulatory, or taxing authority or power of any nature, including notified bodies as well as any arbitral tribunal (public or private). “Law” as used in this subsection 2.3.2 means any federal, state, local, foreign, national or supranational statute, law (including common law and, if applicable, fiduciary or similar duties), act, statute, ordinance, treaty, rule, code, regulation or other binding directive or guidance issued, promulgated or enforced by a Governmental Entity having jurisdiction over a given matter.

(iii)       Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with (i) the Holder’s affiliates (as defined in the Subscription Agreement), (ii) any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s affiliates (as defined in the Subscription Agreement), and (iii) any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of the Common Stock would or could be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (such Persons set forth in clause (i) through (iii) above, “Attribution Parties”)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2.3.3, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules or forms required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2.3.3 applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2.3.3, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice from the Company or the Company’s transfer agent to the Holder setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one (1) trading day confirm in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of shares of outstanding Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2.3.3, provided that the revised Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 19.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2.3.3 shall continue to apply. Any increase or decrease in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2.3.3 to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant for a number of Warrant Shares in excess of that number of Warrant Shares which, upon giving effect to such exercise, would cause (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Attribution Parties to exceed 19.99% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company following such exercise, or (ii) the combined voting power of the securities of the Company beneficially owned by the Holder and its Attribution Parties to exceed 19.99% of the combined voting power of all of the securities of the Company then outstanding following such exercise. For purposes of this Section 2.3.3, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock or voting securities beneficially owned by the Holder and its Attribution Parties shall include the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (x) exercise of the remaining unexercised and non-cancelled portion of this Warrant by the Holder and (y) exercise or conversion of the unexercised, non-converted or non-cancelled portion of any other securities of the Company that do not have voting power (including without limitation any securities of the Company which would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time shares of Common Stock, including without limitation any debt, preferred stock, right, option, warrant or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, shares of Common Stock), is subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein and is beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Attribution Parties.

(iv)       Valid Issuance. All Warrant Shares issued upon the proper exercise of this Warrant shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

(v)       Date of Issuance. Each person in whose name any book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, Warrant Shares are issued shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares of Common Stock on the date on which this Warrant was surrendered and payment of the Warrant Price was made, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company or book-entry system of the Company’s transfer agent are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such shares of Common Stock at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books or book-entry system are open.

(vi)       Delivery of Certificates upon Exercise. Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Registered Holder by crediting the account of the Registered Holder’s or its designee’s prime broker with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Registered Holder or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Registered Holder without volume or manner of sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Warrants) (and the Registered Holder and its broker provide the Company and its transfer agent with customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company and its transfer agent in connection therewith), and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Registered Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Registered Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Registered Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is by the date that is the earliest of (i) two (2) Trading Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, (ii) one (1) Trading Day after delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company and (iii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Registered Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following delivery of the Notice of Exercise. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Registered Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the second Trading Day after Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Registered Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after the Warrant Share Delivery Date) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Stock Exchange with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise.

(vii)       Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Registered Holder a certificate or the certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2.3.4 by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Registered Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

(viii)       Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Registered Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Registered Holder a certificate or the certificates representing the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.3.4 above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Registered Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Registered Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Registered Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Registered Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Registered Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Registered Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Registered Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Registered Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Registered Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Registered Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Registered Holder $1,000. The Registered Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Registered Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

3. Adjustments.

a. Stock Dividends.

(i)       Split-Ups. If after the Original Issue Date, and subject to the provisions of 3.f below, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or by a split-up of shares of Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of Warrant Shares issuable on exercise of this Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding shares of Common Stock. A rights offering to holders of the Common Stock entitling holders to purchase shares of Common Stock at a price less than the Fair Market Value (as defined in this subsection 3.a(i)) shall be deemed a stock dividend of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for the Common Stock) and (ii) one (1) minus the quotient of (x) the price per share of Common Stock paid in such rights offering divided by (y) the Fair Market Value. For purposes of this subsection 3.a(i), (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock, in determining the price payable for shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) “Fair Market Value” means the volume weighted average price of the shares of Common Stock as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the Common Stock trades on the Stock Exchange, without the right to receive such rights.

(ii)       Extraordinary Dividends. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired, shall pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of the shares of Common Stock on account of such Common Stock (or other shares of the Company’s capital stock into which this Warrant is convertible), other than (a) as described in subsection 3.a(i) above, or (b) Ordinary Cash Dividends (as defined below) (any such non-excluded event being referred to herein as an “Extraordinary Dividend”), then the Warrant Price shall be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such Extraordinary Dividend, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value (as determined by the board of directors of the Company, in good faith) of any securities or other assets paid on each share of Common Stock in respect of such Extraordinary Dividend. For purposes of this subsection 3.a(ii), “Ordinary Cash Dividends” means any cash dividend or cash distribution which, when combined on a per share basis, with the per share amounts of all other cash dividends and cash distributions paid on the Common Stock during the 365-day period ending on the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution (as adjusted to appropriately reflect any of the events referred to in other subsections of this Section 3 and excluding cash dividends or cash distributions that resulted in an adjustment to the Warrant Price or to the number of Warrant Shares issuable on exercise of this Warrant) does not exceed $0.50.

b.           Aggregation of Shares. If after the Original Issue Date, and subject to the provisions of 3.f hereof, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse stock split or reclassification of Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse stock split, reclassification or similar event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of this Warrant shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of Common Stock.

c.           Adjustments in Exercise Price. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant is adjusted, as provided in subsection 3.a(i) or 3.b above, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted (to the nearest cent) by multiplying such Warrant Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall be the number of Warrant Shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock so purchasable immediately thereafter.

d.           Replacement of Securities upon Reorganization, etc. In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than a change under subsections 3.a(i) or 3.a(ii) or 3.b hereof or that solely affects the par value of such Common Stock), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity or conversion of the Company as another entity (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another entity of the assets or other property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company is dissolved, the Registered Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in this Warrant and in lieu of the Common Stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the Registered Holder would have received if the Registered Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such event (the “Alternative Issuance”) and the Company shall not enter into any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance unless the successor or purchasing entity agrees to provide for delivery of such Alternative Issuance; If any reclassification or reorganization also results in a change in shares of Common Stock covered by subsection 3.a(i), then such adjustment shall be made pursuant to subsection 3.a(i), 3.b, 3.c and this 3.d. The provisions of this 3.d shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers or consolidations, sales or other transfers. In no event will the Warrant Price be reduced to less than the par value per share issuable upon exercise of the Warrant.

e.           Notices of Changes in Warrant. Upon every adjustment of the Warrant Price or the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant, or upon the occurrence of any event specified in Sections a, b, c or d, the Company shall give written notice thereof to the Registered Holders, at the last address set forth for each such Registered Holder in the Warrant Register, of the record date or the effective date of the event. The notice shall state the adjusted Warrant Price, if applicable, and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable at such price upon the exercise of a Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such event.

f.           No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Warrant to the contrary, the Company shall not issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant. If, by reason of any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3, the Registered Holder would be entitled, upon the exercise of this Warrant, to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company shall, round down to the nearest whole number the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Registered Holder.

4. Other Provisions Relating to Rights of Holders of Warrants.

a.       No Rights as Stockholder. This Warrant does not entitle the Registered Holder to any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends, or other distributions, exercise any preemptive rights to vote or to consent or to receive notice as shareholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter.

b.       Lost, Stolen, Mutilated, or Destroyed Warrants. If this Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed, the Company may on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may in its sole discretion impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination, tenor, and date as this Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilate or destroyed. Any such new Warrant shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

c.       Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available a number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock that shall be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants issued pursuant to the Subscription Agreement. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Stock Exchange upon which the Common Stock may be listed.

5. Miscellaneous Provisions.

a.       Payment of Taxes. The Company shall from time to time promptly pay all taxes and charges that may be imposed upon the Company in respect of the issuance or delivery of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the Warrants, but the Company shall not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes in respect of the ownership of the Warrants or such underlying Common Stock.

b.       Successors. All the covenants and provisions of this Warrant by or for the benefit of the Company or the Registered Holder shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

c.       Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given when so delivered if by hand or overnight delivery or if sent by certified mail or private courier service within five (5) days after deposit of such notice, postage prepaid, addressed as follows: (i) if to the Registered Holder, at his, her or its address as shown in the Warrant Register; and (ii) if to the Company, at its principal office, to the attention of the Chief Financial Officer. Any party may change its address for purposes of this section by giving the other party written notice of the new address in the manner set forth above.

d.        Applicable Law. The validity, interpretation, and performance of the Warrants shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. The Company and the Registered Holder hereby agree that any action, proceeding or claim against either party arising out of or relating in any way to this Warrant shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of Delaware, and irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be exclusive. The Company and the Registered Holder hereby waive any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient forum.

e.       Persons Having Rights under this Warrant. Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to confer upon, or give to, any person or corporation other than the parties hereto any right, remedy, or claim under or by reason of this Warrant or of any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise, or agreement hereof. All covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises, and agreements contained in this Warrant shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto.

f.       Effect of Headings. The section headings herein are for convenience only and are not part of this Warrant and shall not affect the interpretation thereof.

g.       Amendments. This Warrant may only be amended or modified by written instrument executed by both the Company and the Registered Holder.

h.      Severability. This Warrant shall be deemed severable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision hereof shall not affect the validity or enforceability of this Warrant or of any other term or provision hereof. Furthermore, in lieu of any such invalid or unenforceable term or provision, the parties hereto intend that there shall be added as a part of this Warrant a provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be valid and enforceable.

i.      Complete Agreement. This Warrant (together with the Subscription Agreement) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

j.       Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Registered Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Registered Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Registered Holder for the purchase price of any Warrant Shares or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

k.       Remedies. The Registered Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

l.       Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Registered Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that all rights hereunder terminate on the Termination Date. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant or the Subscription Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Registered Holder, the Company shall pay to the Registered Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Registered Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

m.       Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a trading day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding trading day.

Exhibit 10.14

Form of  Open Market Purchase Subscription Agreement

SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV
51 Astor Place, 10^th Floor
New York, New York 10002

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This Subscription Agreement (this “Subscription Agreement”) is being entered into as of the date set forth on the signature page hereto, by and between Aja Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation and prior to the Closing Date (as defined below), a wholly owned subsidiary of ARYA (“ListCo”), ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“ARYA”), and the undersigned subscriber (the “Investor”), in connection with the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Transaction Agreement”), by and among ListCo, ARYA, Aja Merger Sub 1, a Cayman Islands exempted company and prior to the Closing Date, a wholly owned subsidiary of ListCo (“ARYA Merger Sub”), Aja Merger Sub 2, a Delaware corporation and prior to the Closing Date, a wholly owned subsidiary of ListCo (“Company Merger Sub”) and Adagio Medical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to which, among other things, ARYA Merger Sub will merge with and into ARYA and Company Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with ARYA and the Company surviving the mergers and ARYA and the Company becoming wholly owned subsidiaries of ListCo, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Transaction Agreement (the “Transaction”).

In connection with the Transaction, ListCo is seeking commitments from interested investors to purchase in a private placement, contingent upon, and substantially concurrently with the closing of the Transaction, (i) shares (the “Shares”) of ListCo’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) warrants, each representing the right to purchase shares of Common Stock and to be represented by a warrant with the terms and conditions in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Warrant Agreement”) and which will be executed on the Closing Date (as defined below) (such warrants, the “Warrants” and together with the Shares, the “PIPE Securities”). On or about the date of this Subscription Agreement, the parties to this Subscription Agreement (other than the Investor) are entering into subscription agreements (the “Other Subscription Agreements,” and together with this Subscription Agreement, the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain other investors (the “Other Investors,” and together with the Investor, the “Investors”). The shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants are herein after referred to as the “Warrant Shares.” The aggregate purchase price to be paid by the Investor for the PIPE Securities (as set forth on the signature page hereto) is referred to herein as the “Subscription Amount” and is set forth on the signature page hereto.

In connection therewith, and in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, each of the Investor, ARYA and ListCo acknowledges and agrees as follows:

1.            Subscription. The Investor hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from ListCo the number of PIPE Securities set forth on the signature page of this Subscription Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that ListCo reserves the right to accept or reject the Investor’s subscription for the PIPE Securities for any reason or for no reason, in whole or in part, at any time prior to its acceptance, and the same shall be deemed to be accepted by ListCo only when this Subscription Agreement is signed by a duly authorized person by or on behalf of ListCo; ListCo may do so in counterpart form. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the PIPE Securities that will be purchased by the Investor and issued by ListCo on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement, or in the case of the Warrant Shares, on the terms and conditions set forth in each of the Warrant Agreement, shall be securities of a Delaware corporation (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, securities of ARYA, a Cayman Islands exempted company).

2.            Closing. The closing of the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) is contingent upon the substantially concurrent consummation of the Transaction. The Closing shall occur contingent upon, and substantially concurrent with the effectiveness of the Transaction (the date the Closing so occurs, the “Closing Date”). Upon delivery of written notice from (or on behalf of) ListCo to the Investor (the “Closing Notice”), that ListCo reasonably expects all conditions to the closing of the Transaction under the Transaction Agreement to be satisfied or waived on a date that is not less than five (5) business days from the date on which the Closing Notice is delivered to the Investor, the Investor shall deliver to ListCo, three (3) business days prior to the anticipated closing date specified in the Closing Notice, any other information that is reasonably requested in the Closing Notice in order for the PIPE Securities to be issued to the Investor, including, without limitation, the legal name of the person in whose name such securities are to be issued and a duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8, as applicable. On the Closing Date, ListCo shall issue a number of PIPE Securities to the Investor set forth on the signature page to this Subscription Agreement, including by delivering a fully executed Warrant Agreement to the Investor, and subsequently cause the Shares to be registered in book entry form, free and clear of all liens (other than those arising under applicable securities laws), in the name of the Investor on ListCo’s share register. In lieu of paying the Subscription Amount, Investor hereby agrees that it shall not exercise its right to redeem the Investor ARYA Shares (as defined below) in connection with the consummation of the Transaction in accordance with Section 16 hereof. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banking institutions in New York, New York are authorized or required to close for business.

3.            Closing Conditions.

a.             The obligation of the parties hereto to consummate the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement is subject to the following conditions:

(i)            no applicable governmental authority shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any judgment, order, law, rule or regulation (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) which is then in effect and has the effect of making the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby illegal or otherwise enjoining, restraining or prohibiting consummation of (x) the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or (y) the Transaction; and

(ii)           (A) all conditions precedent to the closing of the Transaction set forth in Article 6 of the Transaction Agreement shall have been satisfied (which shall be deemed satisfied if mutually determined by the applicable parties to the Transaction Agreement and other than those conditions under the Transaction Agreement that, by their nature are to be satisfied in connection with the closing of the Transaction, including to the extent that any such condition is dependent upon the consummation of the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or the Other Subscription Agreements) or waived by the applicable parties to the Transaction Agreement as provided therein and (B) the closing of the Transaction shall be scheduled to occur concurrently with or on the same date as the Closing.

b.             The obligation of ListCo to consummate the sale and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement shall be subject to the conditions (which may be waived in writing (email being sufficient) by ListCo with the prior written consent of ARYA (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed)) that (i) all representations and warranties of the Investor contained in this Subscription Agreement are true and correct in all material respects at and as of the Closing Date (except for (i) those representations and warranties qualified by materiality, which shall be true and correct in all respects as of the Closing Date and (ii) those representations and warranties that speak as of a specified earlier date, which shall be so true and correct in all material respects (or, if qualified by materiality, in all respects) as of such specified earlier date) and (ii) all obligations, covenants and agreements of the Investor required to be performed by it at or prior to the Closing shall have been performed in all material respects.

c.             The obligation of the Investor to consummate the purchase of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement shall be subject to the conditions (which may be waived in writing (email being sufficient) by the Investor) that (i) all representations and warranties of ListCo and ARYA contained in this Subscription Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects at and as of the Closing Date (other than (A) representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect (as defined below), which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects and (B) those representations and warranties that speak as of a specified earlier date, which shall be so true and correct in all material respects (or, if qualified by materiality, in all respects) as of such specified earlier date); (ii) ListCo and ARYA shall have performed, satisfied and complied in all material respects with all obligations, covenants, agreements and conditions required by the Subscription Agreement to be performed, satisfied or complied with by it at or prior to the Closing; and (iii) the Shares acquired hereunder shall have been approved for listing by the Stock Exchange (as defined below).

4.           Further Assurances. At or prior to the Closing, the parties hereto shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional documents and take such additional actions as the parties reasonably may deem to be practical and necessary in order to consummate the subscription as contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

5.             ListCo Representations and Warranties. ListCo represents and warrants to the Investor that:

a.             ListCo is duly incorporated and validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that ListCo may enter into additional subscription agreements after the date hereof; provided, however, that if any such agreement is with respect to equity financing, then any such agreement shall be on substantially the same terms and at an effective offering price no less than as provided for pursuant to this subscription Agreement. The Other Subscription Agreements have not been amended or modified in any material respect following the date of this Subscription Agreement.

s.           The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Placement Agent (a) is acting solely in its capacity as placement agent with respect to the issuance and sale of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements, is not acting as an underwriter, initial purchaser, dealer, financial advisor, fiduciary or in any other capacity and is not and shall not be construed as a fiduciary to the Investor, ListCo, ARYA or any other person or entity in connection with this offering of the PIPE Securities or the Transaction; (b) has not made and will not make any representation or warranty, whether express or implied, of any kind or character to the Investor and has not provided any advice or recommendation in connection with this offering of the PIPE Securities or the Transaction; (c) will have no responsibility with respect to (i) any representations, warranties or agreements made by any person or entity under or in connection with the offering of the PIPE Securities, the Transaction or any of the documents furnished pursuant thereto or in connection therewith or the execution, legality, validity or enforceability (with respect to any person) of any thereof, or (ii) the business, affairs, financial condition, operations, properties or prospects of, or any other matter concerning ListCo, this offering of PIPE Securities, or the Transaction.

t.             The Investor acknowledges and is aware that the Placement Agent is acting as ARYA’s and ListCo’s placement agent and Jefferies LLC is acting as capital markets advisor to ARYA.

u.           The Investor acknowledges and agrees that no Placement Agent shall have any liability or obligation (including without limitation, for or with respect to any losses, claims, damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, costs, expenses or disbursements incurred by the Investor, ListCo, ARYA or any other person or entity), whether in contract, tort or otherwise, to the Investor, or to any person claiming through the Investor, in respect of this offering of the PIPE Securities or the Transaction

8.            Registration Rights.

a.            In the event that the Shares and the Warrant Shares (such securities, the “PIPE Registrable Securities”) are not registered in connection with the consummation of the Transaction, ListCo agrees that, within forty-five (45) calendar days after the consummation of the Transaction (the “Filing Date”), it will file with the SEC (at its sole cost and expense) a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) registering the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities, and it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) ninety (90) calendar days after the filing thereof (or one hundred-twenty (120) calendar days after the filing thereof if the SEC notifies ListCo that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the Filing Date and (ii) ten (10) business days after ListCo 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. ListCo agrees to cause such Registration Statement, or another shelf registration statement that includes the PIPE Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, to remain effective until the earliest of (i) the date that is five years and six months following the Closing, (ii) the date on which the Investor ceases to hold any PIPE Registrable Securities or Warrants issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, or (iii) on the first date on which the Investor is able to sell all of its PIPE Registrable Securities issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares received in exchange therefor) under Rule 144 within 90 days without the public information, volume or manner limitations of such rule. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the SEC prevents ListCo from including any or all of the shares proposed to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities by the applicable stockholders or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of PIPE Registrable Securities which is equal to the maximum number of PIPE Registrable Securities as is permitted by the SEC. In such event, the number of PIPE Registrable Securities to be registered for each selling stockholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling stockholders. In no event shall the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless in response to a comment or request from the staff of the SEC or another regulatory agency; provided, however, that if the SEC requests that the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, the Investor will have an opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement. The Investor agrees to disclose its ownership to ListCo upon request to assist it in making the determination described above. If the PIPE Registrable Securities are eligible to be sold under Rule 144 within 90 days without the public information, volume or manner limitations of such rule, or the Registration Statement covering the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities is effective (and the Investor and its broker provide ListCo and its transfer agent with customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to ListCo and its transfer agent in connection therewith), then at the Investor’s request, ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to remove the restrictive legend described in Section 7(b) from the PIPE Registrable Securities. For as long as the Registration Statement shall remain effective pursuant to this Section 8(a), ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to (1) qualify the PIPE Registrable Securities for listing on the Stock Exchange and (2) update or amend the Registration Statement as necessary to include the Shares sold hereby for resale. For as long as the Investor holds the PIPE Registrable Securities, ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to file all reports, and provide all customary and reasonable cooperation, necessary to enable the Investor to resell the PIPE Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or Rule 144 (when Rule 144 becomes available to the Investor), as applicable. ListCo may amend the Registration Statement so as to convert the Registration Statement to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 at such time after ListCo becomes eligible to use such Form S-3. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that ListCo may suspend the use of any such Registration Statement if it determines that in order for such Registration Statement not to contain a material misstatement or omission, an amendment thereto would be needed, if such filing would require the inclusion, in such Registration Statement, of financial statements that are unavailable to ListCo for reasons beyond ListCo’s control or use could materially affect a bona fide business or financing transaction of ListCo or would require premature disclosure of information that would adversely affect ListCo and that would at that time not otherwise be required in a current, quarterly, or annual report under the Exchange Act; provided, that (i) ListCo shall not so delay filing or so suspend the use of a registration statement for a period of more than ninety (90) consecutive days or more than a total of one hundred and eighty (180) calendar days, in each case in any three hundred and sixty (360) day period and (ii) ListCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make such Registration Statement available for the sale by the Investor of such securities as soon as practicable thereafter. ListCo’s obligations to include the PIPE Registrable Securities issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares issued in exchange therefor) for resale in the Registration Statement are contingent upon the Investor furnishing in writing to ListCo such information regarding the Investor, the securities of ListCo held by the Investor and the intended method of disposition of such PIPE Registrable Securities, which shall be limited to non-underwritten public offerings, as shall be reasonably requested by ListCo to effect the registration of such PIPE Registrable Securities, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as ListCo may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations.

b.            ListCo shall advise the Investor within two (2) business days (at ListCo’s expense): (i) when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose; (iv) of the receipt by ListCo of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the PIPE Registrable Securities included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and (v) subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading. Upon receipt of any written notice from ListCo (which notice shall not contain any material non-public information regarding ListCo) of the happening of any event contemplated in clauses (ii) through (v) above during the period that the Registration Statement is effective or if as a result of the occurrence of such event the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, the Investor agrees that (1) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the PIPE Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until the Investor receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which ListCo agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by ListCo that it may resume such offers and sales, and (2) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by ListCo except (A) for disclosure to the Investor’s employees, agents and professional advisers who need to know such information and are obligated to keep it confidential, (B) for disclosures to the extent required in order to comply with reporting obligations to its limited partners who have agreed to keep such information confidential and (C) as required by law or subpoena. ListCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable. Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated in clauses (ii) through (v) above, except for such times as ListCo is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, ListCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the PIPE Registrable Securities included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

c.            Indemnification.

(i)            ListCo agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, the Investor, its directors, and officers, employees, and agents, and each person who controls the Investor (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and each affiliate of the Investor (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus included 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 furnished in writing to ListCo by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein.

(ii)           The Investor agrees, severally and not jointly with any other person that is a party to the Other Subscription Agreements, to indemnify and hold harmless ListCo, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls ListCo (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any 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 or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of the Investor be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Investor upon the sale of the PIPE Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(iii)          Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (1) 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 right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (2) 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. An indemnifying party who elects not to assume the defense of a claim 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 legal counsel to any indemnified party a conflict of interest exists between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which (1) 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), (2) 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, or (3) contains any statement of fault or culpability.

(iv)          The indemnification provided for under this Subscription 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, employee, agent, affiliate or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the PIPE Registrable Securities.

(v)           If the indemnification provided under this Section 8(c) from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and 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 relates to information supplied by or on behalf of, 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. 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 above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 8(c) from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In no event shall the liability of the Investor pursuant to this Section 8(c)(v) be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Investor upon the sale of the PIPE Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation, and such obligations of the Investor shall be several and not joint.

9.            Termination. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earliest to occur of (a) such date and time as the Transaction Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (c) ListCo’s notification to the Investor in writing that it has, with the written consent of the Company, abandoned its plans to move forward with the Transaction and/or terminated the Investor’s obligations with respect to the subscription without the delivery of the Shares having occurred, and (d) the delivery of a notice of termination of this Subscription Agreement by the Investor to ListCo and ARYA on the Termination Date (as defined in the Transaction Agreement, and such thirtieth calendar day, the “Outside Date”), if the Closing has not occurred by the Termination Date (provided, that the right to terminate this Subscription Agreement pursuant to this clause (d) shall not be available to the Investor if the Investor’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations under this Subscription Agreement (or if an affiliate of the Investor is an Other Investor, and such Other Investor’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations under an Other Subscription Agreement), either individually or in the aggregate, shall have proximately caused the failure of the consummation of the Transaction on or before the Termination Date) (the termination events described in clauses (a)–(d) above, collectively, the “Termination Events”); provided that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful and material breach of any covenant, agreement, obligation, representation or warranty hereunder prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from any such willful and material breach. ListCo shall notify the Investor of the termination of the Transaction Agreement as promptly as practicable after the termination of the Transaction Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any Termination Event, this Subscription Agreement shall be void and of no further effect and any monies paid by the Investor to ListCo in connection herewith shall promptly (and in any event within one (1) business day) following the Termination Event be returned to the Investor.

10.          Trust Account Waiver. The Investor acknowledges that ARYA is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving ARYA and one or more businesses or assets. The Investor further acknowledges that, as described in ARYA’s final prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated February 25, 2021 (the “Final Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of ARYA’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of ARYA’s initial public offering and private placement of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of ARYA, its public shareholders and the underwriters of ARYA’s initial public offering. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to ARYA to pay its tax obligations, if any, the cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only for the purposes set forth in the Final Prospectus. For and in consideration of ARYA entering into this Subscription Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Investor, on behalf of itself and its representatives, hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind it has or may have in the future, in or to any monies held in the Trust Account (or distributions therefrom to ARYA’s public shareholders or to the underwriters of ARYA’s initial public offering in respect of their deferred underwriting commissions held in the Trust Account), and agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 10 shall be deemed to limit the Investor’s right, title, interest or claim to any monies held in the Trust Account by virtue of its record or beneficial ownership of publicly traded Class A Shares acquired in an open market transaction, pursuant to a validly exercised redemption right with respect to any such Class A Shares, in accordance with ARYA’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended in connection with the shareholder meeting of ARYA on February 28, 2023 and as may be subsequently amended from time to time, and the Investment Management Trust Agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company and ARYA, dated March 2, 2021, except to the extent that the Investor has otherwise agreed in writing with ListCo, ARYA, the Company or any of their respective affiliates to not exercise such redemption right.

11.          Miscellaneous.

a.            Neither this Subscription Agreement nor any rights that may accrue to the Investor hereunder (other than the PIPE Securities acquired hereunder and the rights set forth in Section 8 solely in connection with a transfer of such PIPE Securities (other than a transfer in connection with a sale pursuant to either an effective registration statement or under Rule 144), if any) may be transferred or assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after notifying ListCo, Investor may assign its rights and obligations under this Subscription Agreement to one or more of its affiliates (including other investment funds or accounts managed or advised by the investment manager who acts on behalf of Investor) or, with the Company’s prior written consent, to another person, provided that no such assignment shall relieve Investor of its obligations hereunder if any such assignee fails to perform such obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Warrants may not be transferred by the holder thereof following their issuance.

b.           ListCo may request from the Investor such additional information as ListCo may deem necessary to register the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities and evaluate the eligibility of the Investor to acquire the PIPE Securities, and the Investor shall provide any such information as may be reasonably requested. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other covenants or agreements in this Subscription Agreement, the Investor acknowledges that ListCo and ARYA may file a copy of this Subscription Agreement and Warrant Agreement with the SEC as an exhibit to a periodic report or a registration statement of ListCo or ARYA.

c.            The Investor acknowledges that ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agent and others will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement, including Schedule A hereto. Prior to the Closing, the Investor agrees to promptly notify ListCo, ARYA, the Company and the Placement Agent in writing if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations or warranties set forth in Section 7 above are no longer accurate in any material respect (other than those acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties qualified by materiality, in which case the Investor shall notify ListCo, ARYA, the Company and the Placement Agent if they are no longer accurate in any respect). The Investor acknowledges and agrees that each purchase by the Investor of PIPE Securities from ListCo will constitute a reaffirmation of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties herein by the Investor as of the time of such purchase.

d.            The Investor agrees that, from the date hereof until the Closing or the earlier termination of this Subscription Agreement, none of the Investor or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or pursuant to any understanding with the Investor will engage in any hedging or other transactions or arrangements (including, without limitation, any short sale or the purchase or sale of, or entry into, any put or call option, or combination thereof, forward, swap or any other derivative transaction or similar instrument, including without limitation equity repurchase agreements and securities lending arrangements, however described or defined) designed or intended, or which could reasonably be expected to lead to or result in, a sale, loan, pledge or other disposition or transfer (whether by the Investor or any other person), in each case, solely to the extent it has the same economic effect as a “short sale” (as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act), of any economic consequences of ownership (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any consequences resulting solely from foreign exchange fluctuations), in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, physically or synthetically, of any PIPE Securities or any securities of ARYA prior to the Closing, whether any such transaction or arrangement (or instrument provided for thereunder) would be settled by delivery of securities of ARYA, in cash or otherwise, or to publicly disclose the intention to undertake any of the foregoing; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 11(d) shall not apply to long sales (including sales of securities held by the Investor, its controlled affiliates or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or any of its controlled affiliates prior to the date hereof and securities purchased by the Investor in the open market after the date hereof) other than those effectuated through derivative transactions and similar instruments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 11(d) (i) shall prohibit any entities under common management with the Investor that have no knowledge (constructive or otherwise) of this Subscription Agreement or of Investor’s participation in the transactions contemplated hereby from entering into any of the transactions set forth in the first sentence of this Section 11(d); and (ii) in the case of an Investor that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers or desks manage separate portions of such Investor’s assets and the portfolio managers have no knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Investor’s assets, this Section 11(d) shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the PIPE Securities covered by this Subscription Agreement.

e.            ListCo, ARYA and the Placement Agent are each entitled to rely upon this Subscription Agreement and each is irrevocably authorized to produce this Subscription Agreement or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby; provided, however, that the foregoing clause of this Section 11(e) shall not give the Placement Agent any rights other than those expressly set forth herein and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be entitled to rely on any of the representations and warranties of ListCo or ARYA set forth in this Subscription Agreement.

f.             All of the agreements, representations and warranties made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing.

g.          This Subscription Agreement may not be terminated other than pursuant to the terms of Section 9 above. The provisions of this Subscription Agreement may not be modified, amended or waived except by an instrument in writing, signed by each of the parties hereto; provided, however, that no modification, amendment or waiver by ListCo of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall be effective without the prior written consent of ARYA (other than modifications, amendments or waivers that are solely ministerial in nature or otherwise immaterial and, in each case, do not affect any economic or any other material term of this Subscription Agreement). No failure or delay of either party hereto in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have hereunder.

h.            This Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the schedule hereto and the Warrant Agreement attached hereto) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except as set forth in Section 3(b), Section 7, Section 9, Section 11(c), Section 11(e), Section 11(g), this Section 11(h) and the last sentence of Section 11(l) with respect to the persons specifically referenced therein, this Subscription Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto, and their respective successors and assigns, and the parties hereto acknowledge that such persons so referenced are third party beneficiaries of this Subscription Agreement with right of enforcement for the purposes of, and to the extent of, the rights granted to them, if any, pursuant to the applicable provisions.

i.            Except as otherwise provided herein, this Subscription Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives, and permitted assigns, and the agreements, representations, warranties, covenants and acknowledgments contained herein shall be deemed to be made by, and be binding upon, such heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.

j.             If any provision of this Subscription Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.

k.            This Subscription Agreement may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts (including, without limitation, by facsimile or electronic mail or in .pdf) and by different parties in separate counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document. All counterparts so executed and delivered shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same agreement.

l.             The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur if any of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Subscription Agreement, without posting a bond or undertaking and without proof of damages, to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Subscription Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Company shall be entitled to seek to specifically enforce the Investor’s obligations hereunder, ListCo’s obligations under this Subscription Agreement and the provisions of the Subscription Agreement of which the Company is an express third party beneficiary, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

m.           Any notice or communication required or permitted hereunder to be given to the Investor shall be in writing and either delivered personally, emailed or sent by overnight mail via a reputable overnight carrier, or sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, to such address(es) or email address(es) set forth on the signature page hereto, and shall be deemed to be given and received (i) when so delivered personally, (ii) when sent, with no mail undeliverable or other rejection notice, if sent by email, or (iii) three (3) business days after the date of mailing to the address below or to such other address or addresses as the Investor may hereafter designate by notice given hereunder:

Upon the issuance of the Disclosure Document, to the actual knowledge of ARYA, the Investor shall not be in possession of any material, non-public information received from ARYA, the Company or any of their officers, directors, or employees or agents, and the Investor shall no longer be subject to any confidentiality or similar obligations under any current agreement, whether written or oral with ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agents or any of their affiliates, relating to the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement, the Warrant Agreement, the Other Subscription Agreements or the Transaction Agreement.

Warrant Price:	$10.00 per share, subject to adjustment as described herein
Original Issue Date:	[●], 2024
Expiration Date:	[●], 2029; see also Section 2.2
Subscription Agreement:	This Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (“Warrant”) is issued pursuant to that certain Subscription Agreement, dated as of February [●], 2024, by and among the Company, ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, a Cayman Islands exempted company, and the Holder (as may be further amended and/or modified and in effect from time to time, the “Subscription Agreement”). Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Subscription Agreement.

THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES THAT, for good and valuable consideration, [HOLDER] (together with any successor or permitted assignee or transferee of this Warrant, “Holder”) is entitled to purchase up to [●] shares of fully paid and non-assessable common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Aja Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), at the Warrant Price, all as set forth above and subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Warrant.

1. Warrants.

a.Form of Warrant. This Warrant, together with all of the other warrants to purchase Common Stock (such shares of Common Stock, the “Warrant Shares”) issued pursuant to the Other Subscription Agreements, including any warrants issued upon the transfer of such warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”), shall be issued in certificated form.

b.Registration.

(i)Warrant Register. The Company shall maintain books (the “Warrant Register”), for the registration of original issuance and the registration of transfer of this Warrant. Upon the initial issuance of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and register this Warrant in the name of the Holder. The Company shall provide 30 days’ prior written notice to the Holder of any appointment of or change in warrant agent and the new warrant agent’s contact information, including if the Company shall itself directly maintain the Warrant Register after a third-party warrant agent has been appointed.

This Warrant shall be signed by the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary or other principal officer of the Company. In the event the person whose signature has been placed upon this Warrant shall have ceased to serve in the capacity in which such person signed the Warrant before such Warrant is issued, it may be issued with the same effect as if he or she had not ceased to be such at the date of issuance.

(ii)Registered Holder. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Warrant, the Company may deem and treat the person in whose name such Warrant is registered in the Warrant Register (the “Registered Holder”) as the absolute owner of such Warrant and of each Warrant represented thereby (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing on any physical certificate made by anyone other than the Company), for the purpose of any exercise thereof, and for all other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

(iii)Registration of Transfer.    Subject to compliance with the legend set forth on the face of this Warrant, the Company shall register the valid transfer, in whole or in part, from time to time, of this Warrant upon the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant for transfer and a duly completed and executed written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly executed by the Registered Holder or its agent or attorney. Upon any such transfer, a new Warrant representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants shall be issued and the old Warrant shall be cancelled by the Company. Upon any partial transfer, the Company shall at its expense issue and deliver to the Registered Holder a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the Registered Holder, which shall be exercisable for such number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which rights under this Warrant were not so transferred. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Registered Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Registered Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Registered Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within two (2) Trading Days of the date on which the Registered Holder delivers a duly completed and executed written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B to the Company assigning this Warrant in full.

(iv)Transferability. This Warrant may not be transferred except for transfers to an affiliate (as defined in the Subscription Agreement) of the Holder or with the written consent of the Company.

c.Procedure for Surrender of Warrants. This Warrant may be surrendered to the Company, together with a written request for exchange or transfer, and thereupon the Company shall issue in exchange therefor one or more new Warrants as requested by the Registered Holder of the Warrants so surrendered, representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants; provided, however, that if the Warrant so surrendered bears a restrictive legend, the Company shall not cancel such Warrant and issue new Warrants in exchange thereof until the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company stating that such transfer may be made and indicating whether the new Warrants must also bear a restrictive legend.

2. Terms and Exercise of Warrants.

a.Warrant Price. This Warrant shall entitle the Registered Holder, subject to the provisions hereof, to purchase from the Company the number of shares of Common Stock set forth above, at the price of $10.00 per share, subject to the adjustments provided in Section 3 hereof. The term “Warrant Price” as used in this Warrant shall mean the price per share of each Warrant Share that may be purchased at the time the Warrant is exercised.

b.Duration of Warrants. A Warrant may be exercised only during the period (the “Exercise Period”) commencing on the Original Issue Date, and terminating at 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the date that is five (5) years after the Original Issue Date; provided, however, that the exercise of any Warrant shall be subject to the satisfaction of any applicable conditions set forth in this Warrant. Each outstanding Warrant not exercised on or before the Expiration Date shall become void, and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under such outstanding Warrant shall cease at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Expiration Date.

c.Exercise of Warrants.

(i)Payment. Subject to the provisions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder hereof, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the initial issuance date during the Exercise Period, by delivery of a duly executed PDF copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Warrant Exercise attached hereto as Exhibit A, duly executed, and by paying in full the Warrant Price for each full Warrant Share as to which this Warrant is exercised, the exchange of this Warrant for Warrant Shares and the issuance of such Warrant Shares in lawful money of the United States, by (i) wire transfer or in good certified check or good bank draft payable to the Company or (ii) or by “cashless exercise” in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) below. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Registered Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Registered Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Registered Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within five (5) Trading Days of the date the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise Form within one (1) trading day of receipt of such notice. The Registered Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

(1)Cashless Exercise. If at the time of exercise hereof following the one-year anniversary of the Form 10 Disclosure Filing Date (as defined below) there is no effective registration statement registering the Warrant Shares, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Registered Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Registered Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:

(A) = as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Registered Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the Bid Price of the Common Stock on the principal Stock Exchange as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) as of the time of the Registered Holder’s execution of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a) hereof or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both executed and delivered pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;

(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and

(X) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of the portion of this Warrant specified in the Notice of Exercise in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.

If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the holding period of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Warrant. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this subsection 2.3.1(a).

“Bid Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Stock Exchange, the bid price of the Common Stock for the time in question (or the nearest preceding date) on the Stock Exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Stock Exchange, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Purchasers of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

“VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Stock Exchange, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Stock Exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Stock Exchange, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Purchasers of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

“Form 10 Disclosure Filing Date” means the date on which the Company shall file with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K (or any other applicable form) that includes current “Form 10 information” (within the meaning of Rule 144) reflecting the Company’s status as an entity that is no longer an issuer described in paragraph (i)(1)(i) of Rule 144.

(2)Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Registered Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Registered Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Registered Holder; provided, however, that, in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Registered Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly executed by the Registered Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.

(ii)Issuance of Warrant Shares on Exercise. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant and the clearance of the funds in payment of the Warrant Price (if payment is pursuant to subsection (i)), the Company shall issue to the Registered Holder a book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, for the number of shares of Warrant Shares to which he, she or it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by him, her or it, and if this Warrant shall not have been exercised in full, a new countersigned Warrant for the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant shall not have been exercised. If at the time of exercise of this Warrant, the Warrant Shares are not registered for resale pursuant to the Securities Act then such purchased Warrant Shares issued to a Registered Holder upon payment of the Warrant Price pursuant to subsection (i) shall bear a restrictive legend in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C. Warrants may not be exercised by, or securities issued to, any Registered Holder in any state in which such exercise would be unlawful. In the event that a Registered Holder reasonably determines that a consent, approval or authorization of, or designation, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Entity under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or under any other applicable antitrust or competition Laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction or any other merger control or investment Laws (collectively, “Antitrust Laws”) is required, then the making of any appropriate filings, the taking or causing to be taken of any required actions, and the expiration or the termination of the applicable waiting period, review period or comparable period, in each case as applicable under any such applicable Antitrust Laws, shall be a condition to the issuance of the Common Stock and the Company shall provide all reasonable assistance requested by the Registered Holder in connection with any required filings or actions under the applicable Antitrust Laws. The Company shall not take any action that would cause a Registered Holder’s ownership percentage of voting securities of the Company (as defined or interpreted under the applicable Antitrust Laws) to increase without providing notice to such Registered Holders for each to determine whether any filing, consent, approval or authorization of, or designation, declaration or filing with any Governmental Entity could be triggered under the applicable Antitrust Laws by the proposed Company action. If any Registered Holder determines that the proposed Company action requires clearance, approval or authorization under the applicable Antitrust Laws, then the obtaining of required clearance, approval or authorization, or the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period, review period or comparable period, as applicable, under the applicable Antitrust Laws shall be a condition to the Company taking its proposed action. If at any time a Registered Holder determines that it has a filing requirement or other requirement or obligation under the applicable Antitrust Laws, then the Company shall provide all reasonable assistance to such Registered Holder as reasonably requested by that Registered Holder in connection with any required filings or actions to be made or taken under the applicable Antitrust Laws. “Governmental Entity” as used in this subsection 2.3.2 shall mean any United States or non-United States (a) federal, state, local, municipal or other government, (b) governmental or quasi-governmental entity of any nature (including any governmental agency, branch, department, official, or entity and any court or other tribunal) or (c) body exercising or entitled to exercise any administrative, executive, judicial, legislative, police, regulatory, or taxing authority or power of any nature, including notified bodies as well as any arbitral tribunal (public or private). “Law” as used in this subsection 2.3.2 means any federal, state, local, foreign, national or supranational statute, law (including common law and, if applicable, fiduciary or similar duties), act, statute, ordinance, treaty, rule, code, regulation or other binding directive or guidance issued, promulgated or enforced by a Governmental Entity having jurisdiction over a given matter.

(iii)Valid Issuance. All Warrant Shares issued upon the proper exercise of this Warrant shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

(iv)Date of Issuance. Each person in whose name any book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, Warrant Shares are issued shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares of Common Stock on the date on which this Warrant was surrendered and payment of the Warrant Price was made, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company or book-entry system of the Company’s transfer agent are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such shares of Common Stock at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books or book-entry system are open.

(v)Delivery of Certificates upon Exercise. Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Registered Holder by crediting the account of the Registered Holder’s or its designee’s prime broker with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Registered Holder or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Registered Holder without volume or manner of sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Warrants) (and the Registered Holder and its broker provide the Company and its transfer agent with customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company and its transfer agent in connection therewith), and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Registered Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Registered Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Registered Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is by the date that is the earliest of (i) two (2) Trading Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, (ii) one (1) Trading Day after delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company and (iii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Registered Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following delivery of the Notice of Exercise. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Registered Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the second Trading Day after Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Registered Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after the Warrant Share Delivery Date) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Stock Exchange with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise.

(vi)Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Registered Holder a certificate or the certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2.3.4 by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Registered Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

(vii)Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Registered Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Registered Holder a certificate or the certificates representing the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.3.4 above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Registered Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Registered Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Registered Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Registered Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Registered Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Registered Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Registered Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Registered Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Registered Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Registered Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Registered Holder $1,000. The Registered Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Registered Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

3. Adjustments.

a.Stock Dividends.

(i)Split-Ups. If after the Original Issue Date, and subject to the provisions of 3.f below, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or by a split-up of shares of Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of Warrant Shares issuable on exercise of this Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding shares of Common Stock. A rights offering to holders of the Common Stock entitling holders to purchase shares of Common Stock at a price less than the Fair Market Value (as defined in this subsection 3.a(i)) shall be deemed a stock dividend of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for the Common Stock) and (ii) one (1) minus the quotient of (x) the price per share of Common Stock paid in such rights offering divided by (y) the Fair Market Value. For purposes of this subsection 3.a(i), (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock, in determining the price payable for shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) “Fair Market Value” means the volume weighted average price of the shares of Common Stock as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the Common Stock trades on the Stock Exchange, without the right to receive such rights.

(ii)Extraordinary Dividends. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired, shall pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of the shares of Common Stock on account of such Common Stock (or other shares of the Company’s capital stock into which this Warrant is convertible), other than (a) as described in subsection 3.a(i) above, or (b) Ordinary Cash Dividends (as defined below) (any such non-excluded event being referred to herein as an “Extraordinary Dividend”), then the Warrant Price shall be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such Extraordinary Dividend, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value (as determined by the board of directors of the Company, in good faith) of any securities or other assets paid on each share of Common Stock in respect of such Extraordinary Dividend. For purposes of this subsection 3.a(ii), “Ordinary Cash Dividends” means any cash dividend or cash distribution which, when combined on a per share basis, with the per share amounts of all other cash dividends and cash distributions paid on the Common Stock during the 365-day period ending on the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution (as adjusted to appropriately reflect any of the events referred to in other subsections of this Section 3 and excluding cash dividends or cash distributions that resulted in an adjustment to the Warrant Price or to the number of Warrant Shares issuable on exercise of this Warrant) does not exceed $0.50.

b.Aggregation of Shares. If after the Original Issue Date, and subject to the provisions of 3.f hereof, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse stock split or reclassification of Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse stock split, reclassification or similar event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of this Warrant shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of Common Stock.

c.Adjustments in Exercise Price. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant is adjusted, as provided in subsection 3.a(i) or 3.b above, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted (to the nearest cent) by multiplying such Warrant Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall be the number of Warrant Shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock so purchasable immediately thereafter.

d.Replacement of Securities upon Reorganization, etc. In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than a change under subsections 3.a(i) or 3.a(ii) or 3.b hereof or that solely affects the par value of such Common Stock), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity or conversion of the Company as another entity (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another entity of the assets or other property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company is dissolved, the Registered Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in this Warrant and in lieu of the Common Stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the Registered Holder would have received if the Registered Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such event (the “Alternative Issuance”) and the Company shall not enter into any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance unless the successor or purchasing entity agrees to provide for delivery of such Alternative Issuance; If any reclassification or reorganization also results in a change in shares of Common Stock covered by subsection 3.a(i), then such adjustment shall be made pursuant to subsection 3.a(i), 3.b, 3.c and this 3.d. The provisions of this 3.d shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers or consolidations, sales or other transfers. In no event will the Warrant Price be reduced to less than the par value per share issuable upon exercise of the Warrant.

e.Notices of Changes in Warrant. Upon every adjustment of the Warrant Price or the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant, or upon the occurrence of any event specified in Sections a, b, c or d, the Company shall give written notice thereof to the Registered Holders, at the last address set forth for each such Registered Holder in the Warrant Register, of the record date or the effective date of the event. The notice shall state the adjusted Warrant Price, if applicable, and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable at such price upon the exercise of a Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such event.

f.No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Warrant to the contrary, the Company shall not issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant. If, by reason of any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3, the Registered Holder would be entitled, upon the exercise of this Warrant, to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company shall, round down to the nearest whole number the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Registered Holder.

4. Other Provisions Relating to Rights of Holders of Warrants.

a.No Rights as Stockholder. This Warrant does not entitle the Registered Holder to any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends, or other distributions, exercise any preemptive rights to vote or to consent or to receive notice as shareholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter.

b.Lost, Stolen, Mutilated, or Destroyed Warrants. If this Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed, the Company may on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may in its sole discretion impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination, tenor, and date as this Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilate or destroyed. Any such new Warrant shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

c.Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available a number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock that shall be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants issued pursuant to the Subscription Agreement. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Stock Exchange upon which the Common Stock may be listed.

5. Miscellaneous Provisions.

a.Payment of Taxes. The Company shall from time to time promptly pay all taxes and charges that may be imposed upon the Company in respect of the issuance or delivery of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the Warrants, but the Company shall not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes in respect of the ownership of the Warrants or such underlying Common Stock.

b.Successors. All the covenants and provisions of this Warrant by or for the benefit of the Company or the Registered Holder shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

c.Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given when so delivered if by hand or overnight delivery or if sent by certified mail or private courier service within five (5) days after deposit of such notice, postage prepaid, addressed as follows: (i) if to the Registered Holder, at his, her or its address as shown in the Warrant Register; and (ii) if to the Company, at its principal office, to the attention of the Chief Financial Officer. Any party may change its address for purposes of this section by giving the other party written notice of the new address in the manner set forth above.

d.Applicable Law. The validity, interpretation, and performance of the Warrants shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. The Company and the Registered Holder hereby agree that any action, proceeding or claim against either party arising out of or relating in any way to this Warrant shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of Delaware, and irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be exclusive. The Company and the Registered Holder hereby waive any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient forum.

e.Persons Having Rights under this Warrant. Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to confer upon, or give to, any person or corporation other than the parties hereto any right, remedy, or claim under or by reason of this Warrant or of any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise, or agreement hereof. All covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises, and agreements contained in this Warrant shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto.

f.Effect of Headings. The section headings herein are for convenience only and are not part of this Warrant and shall not affect the interpretation thereof.

g.Amendments. This Warrant may only be amended or modified by written instrument executed by both the Company and the Registered Holder.

h.Severability. This Warrant shall be deemed severable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision hereof shall not affect the validity or enforceability of this Warrant or of any other term or provision hereof. Furthermore, in lieu of any such invalid or unenforceable term or provision, the parties hereto intend that there shall be added as a part of this Warrant a provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be valid and enforceable.

i.Complete Agreement. This Warrant (together with the Subscription Agreement) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

j.Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Registered Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Registered Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Registered Holder for the purchase price of any Warrant Shares or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

k.Remedies. The Registered Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

l.Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Registered Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that all rights hereunder terminate on the Termination Date. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant or the Subscription Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Registered Holder, the Company shall pay to the Registered Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Registered Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

m.Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a trading day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding trading day.

Form of Subscription Agreement with Pre-Funded Warrant and Base Warrant

 

SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV

51 Astor Place, 10^th Floor

New York, New York 10002

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This Subscription Agreement (this “Subscription Agreement”) is being entered into as of the date set forth on the signature page hereto, by and between Aja Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation and prior to the Closing Date (as defined below), a wholly owned subsidiary of ARYA (“ListCo”), ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“ARYA”), and the undersigned subscriber (the “Investor”), in connection with the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Transaction Agreement”), by and among ListCo, ARYA, Aja Merger Sub 1, a Cayman Islands exempted company and prior to the Closing Date, a wholly owned subsidiary of ListCo (“ARYA Merger Sub”), Aja Merger Sub 2, a Delaware corporation and prior to the Closing Date, a wholly owned subsidiary of ListCo (“Company Merger Sub”) and Adagio Medical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to which, among other things, ARYA Merger Sub will merge with and into ARYA and Company Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with ARYA and the Company surviving the mergers and ARYA and the Company becoming wholly owned subsidiaries of ListCo, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Transaction Agreement (the “Transaction”).

In connection with the Transaction, ListCo is seeking commitments from interested investors to purchase in a private placement, contingent upon, and substantially concurrently with the closing of the Transaction, (i) shares (the “Shares”) of ListCo’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), (ii) pre-funded warrants each representing the right to purchase shares of Common Stock and to be represented by a warrant with the terms and conditions in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Pre-Funded Warrant Agreement”) and which will be executed and issued on the Closing Date (as defined below) (such warrants, the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) and (iii) warrants, each representing the right to purchase shares of Common Stock and to be represented by a warrant with the terms and conditions in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Warrant Agreement”) and which will be executed and issued on the Closing Date (such warrants, the “Warrants” and together with the Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants, the “PIPE Securities”). The shares of Common Stock underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Warrants are herein after referred to as the “Warrant Shares.” On or about the date of this Subscription Agreement, the parties to this Subscription Agreement (other than the Investor) are entering into subscription agreements (the “Other Subscription Agreements,” and together with this Subscription Agreement, the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain other investors (the “Other Investors,” and together with the Investor, the “Investors”). The aggregate purchase price to be paid by the Investor for the PIPE Securities (as set forth on the signature page hereto) is referred to herein as the “Subscription Amount.”

In connection therewith, and in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, each of the Investor, ARYA and ListCo acknowledges and agrees as follows:

1. Subscription. The Investor hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from ListCo the number of PIPE Securities set forth on the signature page of this Subscription Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that ListCo reserves the right to accept or reject the Investor’s subscription for the PIPE Securities for any reason or for no reason, in whole or in part, at any time prior to its acceptance, and the same shall be deemed to be accepted by ListCo only when this Subscription Agreement is signed by a duly authorized person by or on behalf of ListCo; ListCo may do so in counterpart form. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the PIPE Securities that will be purchased by the Investor and issued by ListCo on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement, or in the case of the Warrant Shares, on the terms and conditions set forth in each of the Pre-Funded Warrant Agreement and the Warrant Agreement, shall be securities of a Delaware corporation (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, securities of ARYA, a Cayman Islands exempted company).

1

2. Closing. The closing of the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) is contingent upon the substantially concurrent consummation of the Transaction. The Closing shall occur contingent upon, and substantially concurrent with the effectiveness of the Transaction (the date the Closing so occurs, the “Closing Date”). Upon delivery of written notice from (or on behalf of) ListCo to the Investor (the “Closing Notice”), that ListCo reasonably expects all conditions to the closing of the Transaction under the Transaction Agreement to be satisfied or waived on a date that is not less than five (5) business days from the date on which the Closing Notice is delivered to the Investor, the Investor shall deliver to ListCo, three (3) business days prior to the anticipated closing date specified in the Closing Notice, (i) the Subscription Amount by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to the account(s) specified by ListCo in the Closing Notice (which account shall not be an escrow account) and (ii) any other information that is reasonably requested in the Closing Notice in order for the PIPE Securities to be issued to the Investor, including, without limitation, the legal name of the person in whose name such securities are to be issued and a duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8, as applicable. On the Closing Date, ListCo shall issue a number of PIPE Securities to the Investor set forth on the signature page to this Subscription Agreement, including by delivering the executed Pre-Funded Warrant Agreement and the Warrant Agreement to the Investor, and subsequently cause the Shares to be registered in book entry form, free and clear of all liens (other than those arising under applicable securities laws), in the name of the Investor on ListCo’s share register; provided, however, that ListCo’s obligation to issue the PIPE Securities to the Investor is contingent upon ListCo having received the Subscription Amount in full accordance with this Section 2. In the event the Closing does not occur within two (2) business days of the anticipated Closing Date specified in the Closing Notice, ListCo shall promptly (but not later than three (3) business days thereafter) return the Subscription Amount to the Investor; provided that, unless this Subscription Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Section 9 hereof, such return of funds shall not terminate this Subscription Agreement or relieve the Investor of its obligation to purchase the PIPE Securities at the Closing upon the delivery by ListCo of a subsequent Closing Notice in accordance with this Section 2. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banking institutions in New York, New York are authorized or required to close for business.

3. Closing Conditions.

a. The obligation of the parties hereto to consummate the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement is subject to the following conditions:

(i) no applicable governmental authority shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any judgment, order, law, rule or regulation (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) which is then in effect and has the effect of making the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby illegal or otherwise enjoining, restraining or prohibiting consummation of (x) the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or (y) the Transaction; and

(ii) (A) all conditions precedent to the closing of the Transaction set forth in Article 6 of the Transaction Agreement shall have been satisfied (which shall be deemed satisfied if mutually determined by the applicable parties to the Transaction Agreement and other than those conditions under the Transaction Agreement that, by their nature are to be satisfied in connection with the closing of the Transaction, including to the extent that any such condition is dependent upon the consummation of the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or the Other Subscription Agreements) or waived by the applicable parties to the Transaction Agreement as provided therein and (B) the closing of the Transaction shall be scheduled to occur concurrently with or on the same date as the Closing.

d. The sale and issuance of the PIPE Securities and the compliance by ListCo with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement, the Pre-Funded Warrant Agreement and the Warrant Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, including the issuance of the Warrant Shares, will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of ListCo or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan

3

agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is subject that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the validity of the PIPE Securities, including the Warrant Shares, or legal authority of ListCo to comply in all material respects with the terms of this Subscription Agreement, the Pre-Funded Warrant Agreement, the Warrant Agreement or the Transaction (a “ListCo Material Adverse Effect”); (ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of ListCo; or (iii) result in any violation of any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over ListCo or any of its properties that would reasonably be expected to have a ListCo Material Adverse Effect.

l. Other than the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement and any other agreement contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, as of the date hereof, ListCo has not entered into any side letter or similar agreement with any Other Investor or any other investor in connection with such Other Investor’s or investor’s direct or indirect investment in ListCo (other than any side letter or similar agreement relating to the transfer to any investor of securities to be issued to the direct or indirect securityholders of the Company pursuant to the Transaction Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that ListCo may enter into additional subscription agreements after the date hereof; provided, however, that if any such agreement is with respect to equity financing, then any such agreement shall be on substantially the same terms and at an effective offering price no less than as provided for pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

e. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Investor has received such information as the Investor deems necessary in order to make an investment decision with respect to the PIPE Securities, including, without limitation, with respect to ARYA, the Transaction and the business of the Company and its subsidiaries.

To the extent required, it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed for the screening of its investors against the OFAC sanctions programs, including, without limitation, the OFAC List. To the extent required by applicable law, the Investor maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure that the funds held by the Investor and used to purchase the PIPE Securities and any Warrant Shares were legally derived and were not obtained, directly or indirectly, from a Prohibited Investor.

n. The Investor acknowledges that no disclosure or offering document has been prepared by the Placement Agent in connection with the offer and sale of the PIPE Securities.

o. The Investor acknowledges that neither the Placement Agent, nor any of its respective affiliates nor any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing have made any independent investigation with respect to ListCo, ARYA, the Company or its subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, or the PIPE Securities or the accuracy, completeness or adequacy of any information supplied to the Investor by ListCo, ARYA or the Company, as applicable.

p. The Investor has or has commitments to have and, when required to deliver payment to ListCo pursuant to Section 2 above, will have, sufficient funds to pay the Subscription Amount and consummate the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

q. The Investor does not have, as of the date hereof, and during the thirty (30) day period immediately prior to the date hereof such Investor has not entered into, any “put equivalent position” as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act or short sale positions with respect to the securities of ARYA. 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 PIPE Securities covered by this Subscription Agreement.

r. The Investor is not currently (and at all times through Closing will refrain from being or becoming) a member of a “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act or any successor provision) acting for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of equity securities of ARYA (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act), other than a group consisting solely of the Investor and its affiliates.

s. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Placement Agent (a) is acting solely in its capacity as placement agent with respect to the issuance and sale of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements, is not acting as an underwriter, initial purchaser, dealer, financial advisor, fiduciary or in any other capacity and is not and shall not be construed as a fiduciary to the Investor, ListCo, ARYA or any other person or entity in connection with this offering of the PIPE Securities or the Transaction; (b) has not made and will not make any representation or warranty, whether express or implied, of any kind or character to the Investor and has not provided any advice or recommendation in connection with this offering of the PIPE Securities or the Transaction; (c) will have no responsibility with respect to (i) any representations, warranties or agreements made by any person or entity under or in connection with the offering of the PIPE Securities, the Transaction or any of the documents furnished pursuant thereto or in connection therewith or the execution, legality, validity or enforceability (with respect to any person) of any thereof, or (ii) the business, affairs, financial condition, operations, properties or prospects of, or any other matter concerning ListCo, this offering of PIPE Securities, or the Transaction.

t. The Investor acknowledges and is aware that the Placement Agent is acting as ARYA’s Placement Agent and Jefferies LLC is acting as capital markets advisor to ARYA.

10

u. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that no Placement Agent shall have any liability or obligation (including without limitation, for or with respect to any losses, claims, damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, costs, expenses or disbursements incurred by the Investor, ListCo, ARYA or any other person or entity), whether in contract, tort or otherwise, to the Investor, or to any person claiming through the Investor, in respect of this offering of the PIPE Securities or the Transaction.

8. Registration Rights.

a. In the event that the Shares and the Warrant Shares (such securities, the “PIPE Registrable Securities”) are not registered in connection with the consummation of the Transaction, ListCo agrees that, within forty-five (45) calendar days after the consummation of the Transaction (the “Filing Date”), it will file with the SEC (at its sole cost and expense) a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) registering the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities, and it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) ninety (90) calendar days after the filing thereof (or one hundred-twenty (120) calendar days after the filing thereof if the SEC notifies ListCo that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the Filing Date and (ii) ten (10) business days after ListCo 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. ListCo agrees to cause such Registration Statement, or another shelf registration statement that includes the PIPE Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, to remain effective until the earliest of (i) the date that is five years and six months following the Closing, (ii) the date on which the Investor ceases to hold any PIPE Registrable Securities or any Pre-Funded Warrants or Warrants issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, or (iii) on the first date on which the Investor is able to sell all of its PIPE Registrable Securities issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares received in exchange therefor) under Rule 144 within 90 days without the public information, volume or manner limitations of such rule. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the SEC prevents ListCo from including any or all of the shares proposed to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities by the applicable stockholders or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of PIPE Registrable Securities which is equal to the maximum number of PIPE Registrable Securities as is permitted by the SEC. In such event, the number of PIPE Registrable Securities to be registered for each selling stockholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling stockholders. In no event shall the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless in response to a comment or request from the staff of the SEC or another regulatory agency; provided, however, that if the SEC requests that the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, the Investor will have an opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement. The Investor agrees to disclose its ownership to ListCo upon request to assist it in making the determination described above. If the PIPE Registrable Securities are eligible to be sold under Rule 144 within 90 days without the public information, volume or manner limitations of such rule, or the Registration Statement covering the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities is effective (and the Investor and its broker provide ListCo and its transfer agent with customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to ListCo and its transfer agent in connection therewith), then at the Investor’s request, ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to remove the restrictive legend described in Section 7(b) from the PIPE Registrable Securities. For as long as the Registration Statement shall remain effective pursuant to this Section 8(a), ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to (1) qualify the PIPE Registrable Securities for listing on the Stock Exchange and (2) update or amend the Registration Statement as necessary to include the Shares sold hereby for resale. For as long as the Investor holds the PIPE Registrable Securities, ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to file all reports, and provide all customary and reasonable cooperation, necessary to enable the Investor to resell the PIPE Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or Rule 144 (when Rule 144 becomes available to the Investor), as applicable. ListCo may amend the Registration Statement so as to convert the Registration Statement to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 at such time after ListCo becomes eligible to use such Form S-3. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that ListCo may suspend the use of any such Registration Statement if it determines that in order for such Registration Statement not to contain a material misstatement or omission, an amendment thereto would be needed, if such filing would require the inclusion, in such Registration Statement, of financial statements that are unavailable to ListCo for reasons beyond ListCo’s control or use could materially affect a bona fide business or financing transaction of ListCo or would require premature disclosure of information that would adversely affect ListCo and that would at that time not

11

otherwise be required in a current, quarterly, or annual report under the Exchange Act; provided, that (i) ListCo shall not so delay filing or so suspend the use of a registration statement for a period of more than ninety (90) consecutive days or more than a total of one hundred and eighty (180) calendar days, in each case in any three hundred and sixty (360) day period and (ii) ListCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make such Registration Statement available for the sale by the Investor of such securities as soon as practicable thereafter. ListCo’s obligations to include the PIPE Registrable Securities issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares issued in exchange therefor) for resale in the Registration Statement are contingent upon the Investor furnishing in writing to ListCo such information regarding the Investor, the securities of ListCo held by the Investor and the intended method of disposition of such PIPE Registrable Securities, which shall be limited to non-underwritten public offerings, as shall be reasonably requested by ListCo to effect the registration of such PIPE Registrable Securities, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as ListCo may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations.

b. ListCo shall advise the Investor within two (2) business days (at ListCo’s expense): (i) when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose; (iv) of the receipt by ListCo of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the PIPE Registrable Securities included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and (v) subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading. Upon receipt of any written notice from ListCo (which notice shall not contain any material non-public information regarding ListCo) of the happening of any event contemplated in clauses (ii) through (v) above during the period that the Registration Statement is effective or if as a result of the occurrence of such event the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, the Investor agrees that (1) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the PIPE Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until the Investor receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which ListCo agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by ListCo that it may resume such offers and sales, and (2) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by ListCo except (A) for disclosure to the Investor’s employees, agents and professional advisers who need to know such information and are obligated to keep it confidential, (B) for disclosures to the extent required in order to comply with reporting obligations to its limited partners who have agreed to keep such information confidential and (C) as required by law or subpoena. ListCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable. Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated in clauses (ii) through (v) above, except for such times as ListCo is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, ListCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the PIPE Registrable Securities included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

c. Indemnification.

(i) ListCo agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, the Investor, its directors, and officers, employees, and agents, and each person who controls the Investor (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and each affiliate of the Investor (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) caused by any untrue or alleged

12

untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus included 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 furnished in writing to ListCo by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein.

(ii) The Investor agrees, severally and not jointly with any other person that is a party to the Other Subscription Agreements, to indemnify and hold harmless ListCo, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls ListCo (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any 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 or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of the Investor be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Investor upon the sale of the PIPE Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(iii) Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (1) 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 right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (2) 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. An indemnifying party who elects not to assume the defense of a claim 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 legal counsel to any indemnified party a conflict of interest exists between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which (1) 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), (2) 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, or (3) contains any statement of fault or culpability.

(iv) The indemnification provided for under this Subscription 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, employee, agent, affiliate or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the PIPE Registrable Securities.

(v) If the indemnification provided under this Section 8(c) from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and 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 relates to information supplied by or on behalf of, 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. 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 above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 8(c) from any person who was not guilty

13

of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In no event shall the liability of the Investor pursuant to this Section 8(c)(v) be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Investor upon the sale of the PIPE Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation, and such obligations of the Investor shall be several and not joint.

9. Termination. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earliest to occur of (a) such date and time as the Transaction Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (c) ListCo’s notification to the Investor in writing that it has, with the written consent of the Company, abandoned its plans to move forward with the Transaction and/or terminated the Investor’s obligations with respect to the subscription without the delivery of the Shares having occurred, and (d) the delivery of a notice of termination of this Subscription Agreement by the Investor to ListCo and ARYA on the Termination Date (as defined in the Transaction Agreement), if the Closing has not occurred by the Termination Date (provided, that the right to terminate this Subscription Agreement pursuant to this clause (d) shall not be available to the Investor if the Investor’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations under this Subscription Agreement (or if an affiliate of the Investor is an Other Investor, and such Other Investor’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations under an Other Subscription Agreement), either individually or in the aggregate, shall have proximately caused the failure of the consummation of the Transaction on or before the Termination Date) (the termination events described in clauses (a)–(d) above, collectively, the “Termination Events”); provided that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful and material breach of any covenant, agreement, obligation, representation or warranty hereunder prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from any such willful and material breach. ListCo shall notify the Investor of the termination of the Transaction Agreement as promptly as practicable after the termination of the Transaction Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any Termination Event, this Subscription Agreement shall be void and of no further effect and any monies paid by the Investor to ListCo in connection herewith shall promptly (and in any event within one (1) business day) following the Termination Event be returned to the Investor.

10. Trust Account Waiver. The Investor acknowledges that ARYA is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving ARYA and one or more businesses or assets. The Investor further acknowledges that, as described in ARYA’s final prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated February 25, 2021 (the “Final Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of ARYA’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of ARYA’s initial public offering and private placement of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of ARYA, its public shareholders and the underwriters of ARYA’s initial public offering. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to ARYA to pay its tax obligations, if any, the cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only for the purposes set forth in the Final Prospectus. For and in consideration of ARYA entering into this Subscription Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Investor, on behalf of itself and its representatives, hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind it has or may have in the future, in or to any monies held in the Trust Account (or distributions therefrom to ARYA’s public shareholders or to the underwriters of ARYA’s initial public offering in respect of their deferred underwriting commissions held in the Trust Account), and agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 10 shall be deemed to limit the Investor’s right, title, interest or claim to any monies held in the Trust Account by virtue of its record or beneficial ownership of publicly traded Class A Shares acquired in an open market transaction, pursuant to a validly exercised redemption right with respect to any such Class A Shares, in accordance with ARYA’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended in connection with the shareholder meeting of ARYA on February 28, 2023 and as may be subsequently amended from time to time, and the Investment Management Trust Agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company and ARYA, dated March 2, 2021, except to the extent that the Investor has otherwise agreed in writing with ListCo, ARYA, the Company or any of their respective affiliates to not exercise such redemption right.

14

11. Miscellaneous.

a. Neither this Subscription Agreement nor any rights that may accrue to the Investor hereunder (other than the PIPE Securities acquired hereunder and the rights set forth in Section 8 solely in connection with a transfer of such PIPE Securities (other than a transfer in connection with a sale pursuant to either an effective registration statement or under Rule 144), if any) may be transferred or assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after notifying ListCo, Investor may assign its rights and obligations under this Subscription Agreement to one or more of its affiliates (including other investment funds or accounts managed or advised by the investment manager who acts on behalf of Investor) or, with the Company’s prior written consent, to another person, provided that no such assignment shall relieve Investor of its obligations hereunder if any such assignee fails to perform such obligations.

b. ListCo may request from the Investor such additional information as ListCo may deem necessary to register the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities and evaluate the eligibility of the Investor to acquire the PIPE Securities, and the Investor shall provide any such information as may be reasonably requested. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other covenants or agreements in this Subscription Agreement, the Investor acknowledges that ListCo and ARYA may file a copy of this Subscription Agreement, the Pre-Funded Warrant Agreement and the Warrant Agreement with the SEC as an exhibit to a periodic report or a registration statement of ListCo or ARYA.

c. The Investor acknowledges that ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agent and others will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement, including Schedule A hereto. Prior to the Closing, the Investor agrees to promptly notify ListCo, ARYA, the Company and the Placement Agent in writing if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations or warranties set forth in Section 7 above are no longer accurate in any material respect (other than those acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties qualified by materiality, in which case the Investor shall notify ListCo, ARYA, the Company and the Placement Agent if they are no longer accurate in any respect). The Investor acknowledges and agrees that each purchase by the Investor of PIPE Securities from ListCo will constitute a reaffirmation of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties herein by the Investor as of the time of such purchase.

d. The Investor agrees that, from the date hereof until the Closing or the earlier termination of this Subscription Agreement, none of the Investor or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or pursuant to any understanding with the Investor will engage in any hedging or other transactions or arrangements (including, without limitation, any short sale or the purchase or sale of, or entry into, any put or call option, or combination thereof, forward, swap or any other derivative transaction or similar instrument, including without limitation equity repurchase agreements and securities lending arrangements, however described or defined) designed or intended, or which could reasonably be expected to lead to or result in, a sale, loan, pledge or other disposition or transfer (whether by the Investor or any other person), in each case, solely to the extent it has the same economic effect as a “short sale” (as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act), of any economic consequences of ownership (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any consequences resulting solely from foreign exchange fluctuations), in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, physically or synthetically, of any PIPE Securities or any securities of ARYA prior to the Closing, whether any such transaction or arrangement (or instrument provided for thereunder) would be settled by delivery of securities of ARYA, in cash or otherwise, or to publicly disclose the intention to undertake any of the foregoing; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 11(d) shall not apply to long sales (including sales of securities held by the Investor, its controlled affiliates or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or any of its controlled affiliates prior to the date hereof and securities purchased by the Investor in the open market after the date hereof) other than those effectuated through derivative transactions and similar instruments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 11(d) (i) shall prohibit any entities under common management with the Investor that have no knowledge (constructive or otherwise) of this Subscription Agreement or of Investor’s participation in the transactions contemplated hereby from entering into any of the transactions set forth in the first sentence of this Section 11(d); and (ii) in the case of an Investor that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers or desks manage separate portions of such Investor’s assets and the portfolio managers have no knowledge of the investment decisions made by the

15

portfolio managers managing other portions of such Investor’s assets, this Section 11(d) shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the PIPE Securities covered by this Subscription Agreement.

e. ListCo, ARYA and the Placement Agent are each entitled to rely upon this Subscription Agreement and each is irrevocably authorized to produce this Subscription Agreement or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby; provided, however, that the foregoing clause of this Section 11(e) shall not give the Placement Agent any rights other than those expressly set forth herein and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be entitled to rely on any of the representations and warranties of ListCo or ARYA set forth in this Subscription Agreement.

f. All of the agreements, representations and warranties made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing.

g. This Subscription Agreement may not be terminated other than pursuant to the terms of Section 9 above. The provisions of this Subscription Agreement may not be modified, amended or waived except by an instrument in writing, signed by each of the parties hereto; provided, however, that no modification, amendment or waiver by ListCo of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall be effective without the prior written consent of ARYA (other than modifications, amendments or waivers that are solely ministerial in nature or otherwise immaterial and, in each case, do not affect any economic or any other material term of this Subscription Agreement). No failure or delay of either party hereto in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have hereunder.

h. This Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the schedule hereto and each of the Pre-Funded Warrant Agreement and the Warrant Agreement attached hereto) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except as set forth in Section 3(b), Section 7, Section 9, Section 11(c), Section 11(e), Section 11(g), this Section 11(h) and the last sentence of Section 11(l) with respect to the persons specifically referenced therein, this Subscription Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto, and their respective successors and assigns, and the parties hereto acknowledge that such persons so referenced are third party beneficiaries of this Subscription Agreement with right of enforcement for the purposes of, and to the extent of, the rights granted to them, if any, pursuant to the applicable provisions.

i. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Subscription Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives, and permitted assigns, and the agreements, representations, warranties, covenants and acknowledgments contained herein shall be deemed to be made by, and be binding upon, such heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.

j. If any provision of this Subscription Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.

k. This Subscription Agreement may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts (including, without limitation, by facsimile or electronic mail or in .pdf) and by different parties in separate counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document. All counterparts so executed and delivered shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same agreement.

l. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur if any of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Subscription Agreement, without posting a bond or undertaking and without proof of

16

damages, to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Subscription Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Company shall be entitled to seek to specifically enforce the Investor’s obligations to fund the Subscription Amount, ListCo’s obligations under this Subscription Agreement and the provisions of the Subscription Agreement of which the Company is an express third party beneficiary, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

m. Any notice or communication required or permitted hereunder to be given to the Investor shall be in writing and either delivered personally, emailed or sent by overnight mail via a reputable overnight carrier, or sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, to such address(es) or email address(es) set forth on the signature page hereto, and shall be deemed to be given and received (i) when so delivered personally, (ii) when sent, with no mail undeliverable or other rejection notice, if sent by email, or (iii) three (3) business days after the date of mailing to the address below or to such other address or addresses as the Investor may hereafter designate by notice given hereunder:

SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV

51 Astor Place, 10^th Floor

New York, New York 10002

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This Subscription Agreement (this “Subscription Agreement”) is being entered into as of the date set forth on the signature page hereto, by and between Aja Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation and prior to the Closing Date (as defined below), a wholly owned subsidiary of ARYA (“ListCo”), ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“ARYA”), and the undersigned subscriber (the “Investor”), in connection with the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Transaction Agreement”), by and among ListCo, ARYA, Aja Merger Sub 1, a Cayman Islands exempted company and prior to the Closing Date, a wholly owned subsidiary of ListCo (“ARYA Merger Sub”), Aja Merger Sub 2, a Delaware corporation and prior to the Closing Date, a wholly owned subsidiary of ListCo (“Company Merger Sub”) and Adagio Medical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to which, among other things, ARYA Merger Sub will merge with and into ARYA and Company Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with ARYA and the Company surviving the mergers and ARYA and the Company becoming wholly owned subsidiaries of ListCo, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Transaction Agreement (the “Transaction”).

In connection with the Transaction, ListCo is seeking commitments from interested investors to purchase in a private placement, contingent upon, and substantially concurrently with the closing of the Transaction, (i) shares (the “Shares”) of ListCo’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) warrants, each representing the right to purchase shares of Common Stock and to be represented by a warrant with the terms and conditions in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Warrant Agreement”) and which will be executed on the Closing Date (as defined below) (such warrants, the “Warrants” and together with the Shares, the “PIPE Securities”). On or about the date of this Subscription Agreement, the parties to this Subscription Agreement (other than the Investor) are entering into subscription agreements (the “Other Subscription Agreements,” and together with this Subscription Agreement, the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain other investors (the “Other Investors,” and together with the Investor, the “Investors”). The shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants are herein after referred to as the “Warrant Shares.” The aggregate purchase price to be paid by the Investor for the PIPE Securities is referred to herein as the “Subscription Amount” and shall be comprised of (i) an amount of cash (the “Additional Cash”) set forth on the signature page hereto and (ii) the contribution by the Investor to ListCo of (a) the Convertible Promissory Notes, dated April 4, 2023, June 30, 2023, July 31, 2023, August 31, 2023, September 29, 2023, and October 26, 2023, each issued by the Company to the Investor, and (b) the Convertible Promissory Notes, dated November 28, 2023, December 13, 2023, December 28, 2023 and January 29, 2024, each issued by the Company to the Investor (together, the “Company Convertible Notes”).

In connection therewith, and in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, each of the Investor, ARYA and ListCo acknowledges and agrees as follows:

1.       Subscription. The Investor hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from ListCo the number of PIPE Securities set forth on the signature page of this Subscription Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that ListCo reserves the right to accept or reject the Investor’s subscription for the PIPE Securities for any reason or for no reason, in whole or in part, at any time prior to its acceptance, and the same shall be deemed to be accepted by ListCo only when this Subscription Agreement is signed by a duly authorized person by or on behalf of ListCo; ListCo may do so in counterpart form. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the PIPE Securities that will be purchased by the Investor and issued by ListCo on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement, or in the case of the Warrant Shares, on the terms and conditions set forth in each of the Warrant Agreement, shall be securities of a Delaware corporation (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, securities of ARYA, a Cayman Islands exempted company).

2.       Closing. The closing of the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) is contingent upon the substantially concurrent consummation of the Transaction. The Closing shall occur contingent upon, and substantially concurrent with the effectiveness of the Transaction (the date the Closing so occurs, the “Closing Date”). Upon delivery of written notice from (or on behalf of) ListCo to the Investor (the “Closing Notice”), that ListCo reasonably expects all conditions to the closing of the Transaction under the Transaction Agreement to be satisfied or waived on a date that is not less than five (5) business days from the date on which the Closing Notice is delivered to the Investor, the Investor shall deliver to ListCo, three (3) business days prior to the anticipated closing date specified in the Closing Notice, (i) the Additional Cash by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to the account(s) specified by ListCo in the Closing Notice (which account shall not be an escrow account), and (ii) any other information that is reasonably requested in the Closing Notice in order for the PIPE Securities to be issued to the Investor, including, without limitation, the legal name of the person in whose name such securities are to be issued and a duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8, as applicable. On the Closing Date, the Company Convertible Notes shall be contributed by the Investor to ListCo, and in consideration for the Subscription Amount ListCo shall issue a number of PIPE Securities to the Investor set forth on the signature page to this Subscription Agreement and deliver a fully executed Warrant Agreement to the Investor, and subsequently cause the Shares to be registered in book entry form, free and clear of all liens (other than those arising under applicable securities laws), in the name of the Investor on ListCo’s share register; provided, however, that ListCo’s obligation to issue the PIPE Securities to the Investor is contingent upon ListCo having received the Additional Cash in full accordance with this Section 2. In the event the Closing does not occur within two (2) business days of the anticipated Closing Date specified in the Closing Notice, ListCo shall promptly (but not later than three (3) business days thereafter) return the Additional Cash to the Investor; provided that, unless this Subscription Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Section 9 hereof, such return of funds shall not terminate this Subscription Agreement or relieve the Investor of its obligation to purchase the PIPE Securities at the Closing upon the delivery by ListCo of a subsequent Closing Notice in accordance with this Section 2. In the event the Closing does not occur, the Company Convertible Notes shall be deemed not to have been contributed by the Investor to ListCo on the Closing Date and shall remain enforceable obligations against the Company in accordance with their terms. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banking institutions in New York, New York are authorized or required to close for business.

3.       Closing Conditions.

(ii)       (A) all conditions precedent to the closing of the Transaction set forth in Article 6 of the Transaction Agreement shall have been satisfied (which shall be deemed satisfied if mutually determined by the applicable parties to the Transaction Agreement and other than those conditions under the Transaction Agreement that, by their nature are to be satisfied in connection with the closing of the Transaction, including to the extent that any such condition is dependent upon the consummation of the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or the Other Subscription Agreements) or waived by the applicable parties to the Transaction Agreement as provided therein and (B) the closing of the Transaction shall be scheduled to occur concurrently with or on the same date as the Closing.

b.       The obligation of ListCo to consummate the sale and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement shall be subject to the conditions (which may be waived in writing (email being sufficient) by ListCo with the prior written consent of ARYA (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed)) that (i) all representations and warranties of the Investor contained in this Subscription Agreement are true and correct in all material respects at and as of the Closing Date (except for (i) those representations and warranties qualified by materiality, which shall be true and correct in all respects as of the Closing Date and (ii) those representations and warranties that speak as of a specified earlier date, which shall be so true and correct in all material respects (or, if qualified by materiality, in all respects) as of such specified earlier date) and (ii) all obligations, covenants and agreements of the Investor required to be performed by it at or prior to the Closing shall have been performed in all material respects.

c.       The obligation of the Investor to consummate the purchase of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement shall be subject to the conditions (which may be waived in writing (email being sufficient) by the Investor) that (i) all representations and warranties of ListCo and ARYA contained in this Subscription Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects at and as of the Closing Date (other than (A) representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect (as defined below), which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects and (B) for those representations and warranties that speak as of a specified earlier date, which shall be so true and correct in all material respects (or, if qualified by materiality, in all respects) as of such specified earlier date); (ii) ListCo and ARYA shall have performed, satisfied and complied in all material respects with all obligations, covenants, agreements and conditions required by the Subscription Agreement to be performed, satisfied or complied with by it at or prior to the Closing; and (iii) the Shares acquired hereunder shall have been approved for listing by the Stock Exchange (as defined below).

4.       Further Assurances. At or prior to the Closing, the parties hereto shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional documents and take such additional actions as the parties reasonably may deem to be practical and necessary in order to consummate the subscription as contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

5.       ListCo Representations and Warranties. ListCo represents and warrants to the Investor that:

a.       ListCo is duly incorporated and validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. ListCo has all power (corporate or otherwise) and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as presently conducted and to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement.

b.       As of the Closing Date, the Shares, the Warrants and any Warrant Shares, will be duly authorized and, when issued and delivered to the Investor against full payment therefor in accordance with the terms of this Subscription Agreement or the Warrant Agreement, as applicable, such Shares or Warrant Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will not have been issued in violation of or subject to any preemptive or similar rights created under ListCo’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws (each, as amended on the Closing Date) or under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or under any agreement or instrument to which ListCo is a party. As of the Closing Date, the Warrant Shares will have been duly reserved for issuance in an amount of duly authorized shares of Common Stock that is equal to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the initial exercise of the Warrants. ListCo shall keep such number of shares of Common Stock as necessary to satisfy the exercise of the Warrants at all times reserved for issuance until the earlier of the exercise of the Warrants in full or the expiration of the Warrants in accordance with their respective terms. The Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of any Warrant will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. On the Closing Date, the Warrant Agreement will be duly authorized, and when executed and delivered by ListCo, will constitute the valid and binding agreement of ListCo and will be enforceable against ListCo in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

c.       This Subscription Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered by ListCo and, assuming that this Subscription Agreement constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the Investor and ARYA, this Subscription Agreement is enforceable against ListCo in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

d.       The sale and issuance of the PIPE Securities and the compliance by ListCo with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the Warrant Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, including the issuance of the Warrant Shares, will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of ListCo or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is subject that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the validity of the PIPE Securities, including the Warrant Shares, or legal authority of ListCo to comply in all material respects with the terms of this Subscription Agreement, the Warrant Agreement or the Transaction (a “ListCo Material Adverse Effect”); (ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of ListCo; or (iii) result in any violation of any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over ListCo or any of its properties that would reasonably be expected to have a ListCo Material Adverse Effect.

e.       As of the date of this Subscription Agreement, the authorized share capital of ListCo (excluding the PIPE Securities) consists of one thousand (1,000) shares of Common Stock and the issued share capital of ListCo consists of one (1) share of Common Stock, which (A) has been duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, (B) has been issued in compliance with applicable law and (C) has not been issued in breach or violation of any preemptive rights or contract. Immediately following the Closing, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock shall (A) be, or have been duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, (B) shall have been issued in compliance with applicable law and (C) not have been issued in breach or violation of any preemptive rights or contract. There are no shareholder agreements, voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to which ListCo is a party or by which it is bound relating to the voting of any securities of ListCo, other than (1) as set forth in the SEC Reports (as defined below) and (2) as contemplated by the Transaction Agreement. Except as set forth above and pursuant to the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement and the other agreements and arrangements referred to therein, as of the date hereof, there are no outstanding options, warrants or other rights to subscribe for, purchase or acquire from ListCo any equity interests in ListCo, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such equity interests. As of the date hereof, ListCo has no subsidiaries and does not own, directly or indirectly, interests or investments (whether equity or debt) in any person, whether incorporated or unincorporated.

f.       Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Investor, ListCo is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by ListCo of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance by ListCo of the PIPE Securities or any Warrant Shares), other than (i) filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), (ii) filings required by applicable state securities laws, (iii) filings required by Nasdaq, or such other applicable stock exchange on which ListCo’s common equity will be listed (the “Stock Exchange”), (iv) those required to consummate the Transaction as provided under the Transaction Agreement, and (v) those of which the failure to obtain would not be reasonably likely to have a ListCo Material Adverse Effect.

g.       As of the date hereof, there is no suit, action, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of ListCo, threatened against ListCo by the Stock Exchange or the SEC, respectively, to prohibit the listing of the Shares and Warrant Shares, or the registration of, when issued in connection with the closing of the Transaction, the Shares and Warrant Shares under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

h.       Assuming the accuracy of the Investor’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 7, no registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) is required for the offer and sale of the PIPE Securities by ListCo to the Investor hereunder. The PIPE Securities (i) were not offered to the Investor by any form of general solicitation or general advertising and (ii) are not being offered to the Investor in a manner involving a public offering under, or in a distribution in violation of, the Securities Act, or any state securities laws.

i.       Except for such matters as have not had and would not be reasonably likely to have a ListCo Material Adverse Effect, as of the date hereof, there is no (i) action, suit, claim or other proceeding, in each case by or before any governmental authority pending, or, to the knowledge of ListCo, threatened against ListCo or (ii) judgment, decree, injunction, ruling or order of any governmental entity or arbitrator outstanding against ListCo.

j.       ListCo has not engaged any broker, finder, commission agent, placement agent or arranger in connection with the sale of the PIPE Securities, and ListCo is not under any obligation to pay any broker’s fee or commission in connection with the sale of the PIPE Securities other than to the Placement Agent at Closing.

k.       ListCo acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Shares and Warrant Shares may be pledged by Investor in connection with a bona fide margin agreement, provided such pledge shall be (i) pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or (ii) pursuant to, and in accordance with, a registration statement that is effective under the Securities Act at the time of such pledge, and the Investor effecting a pledge of the Shares and Warrant Shares, shall not be required to provide ListCo with any notice thereof; provided, however, that neither ListCo, ARYA, the Company or their respective counsels shall be required to take any action (or refrain from taking any action) in connection with any such pledge, other than providing any such lender of such margin agreement with an acknowledgment that the Shares and Warrant Shares are not subject to any contractual prohibition on pledging or lock up, the form of such acknowledgment to be subject to review and comment by ListCo in all respects.

l.       Other than the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement and any other agreement contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, as of the date hereof, ListCo has not entered into any side letter or similar agreement with any Other Investor or any other investor in connection with such Other Investor’s or investor’s direct or indirect investment in ListCo (other than any side letter or similar agreement relating to the transfer to any investor of securities to be issued to the direct or indirect securityholders of the Company pursuant to the Transaction Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that ListCo may enter into additional subscription agreements after the date hereof; provided, however, that if any such agreement is with respect to equity financing, then any such agreement shall be on substantially the same terms and at an effective offering price no less than as provided for pursuant to this subscription Agreement. The Other Subscription Agreements have not been amended or modified in any material respect following the date of this Subscription Agreement.

There are no shareholder agreements, voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to which ARYA is a party or by which it is bound relating to the voting of any securities of ARYA, other than (1) as set forth in the SEC Reports and (2) as contemplated by the Transaction Agreement. Except as set forth above and pursuant to the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement and the other agreements and arrangements referred to therein, as of the date hereof, there are no outstanding options, warrants or other rights to subscribe for, purchase or acquire from ARYA any Class A Shares, Class B Shares or other equity interests in ARYA, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such equity interests.

ARYA has timely filed the SEC Reports with the SEC through the date hereof (after giving effect to any applicable grace period). As of their respective filing dates all SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Reports. None of the SEC Reports filed under the Exchange Act (except to the extent that information contained in any SEC Report has been superseded by a later timely filed SEC Report) contained, when filed or, if amended, as of the date of such amendment with respect to those disclosures that are amended, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The financial statements of ARYA included in the SEC Reports, as applicable, comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing, or, if amended, as of the date of such amendment, and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of ARYA as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented, subject to (i) in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, year-end audit adjustments, and such consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (“GAAP”) (except as may be disclosed therein or in the notes thereto, and except that the unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP), and (ii) changes to historical accounting policies of ARYA in connection with any order, directive, guideline, comment or recommendation from the SEC that is applicable to ARYA. There are no outstanding or unresolved comments in comment letters from the staff of the SEC with respect to any of the SEC Reports. For the avoidance of doubt, any restatement of the financial statements of ARYA and any amendments to previously filed SEC Reports or delays in filing SEC Reports, in connection with any guidance from the SEC following the date of this Subscription Agreement, shall not be deemed to constitute a breach of this Section 6(d). Additionally, for avoidance of doubt, any amendment or modification of any SEC Report (or any agreement filed as an exhibit to any SEC Report) from its initial filing date in a subsequent filing shall not be deemed to constitute a breach of this Section 6(d).

e.       The sale and issuance of the PIPE Securities and the compliance by ARYA with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, including the issuance of the Warrant Shares, will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of ARYA or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which ARYA or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which ARYA or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of ARYA or any of its subsidiaries is subject that would reasonably be expected to materially affect or legal authority of ARYA to comply in all material respects with the terms of this Subscription Agreement or the Transaction (an “ARYA Material Adverse Effect”); (ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of ARYA; or (iii) result in any violation of any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over ARYA or any of its properties that would reasonably be expected to have an ARYA Material Adverse Effect.

f.       Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Investor, ARYA is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by ARYA of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance by ListCo of the PIPE Securities or any Warrant Shares), other than (i) filings with the SEC, (ii) filings required by applicable state securities laws, (iii) filings required by the Stock Exchange, (iv) those required to consummate the Transaction as provided under the Transaction Agreement, and (v) those of which the failure to obtain would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

11.       Tax Matters. The parties to this Subscription Agreement intend that the Transaction and the issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and certain Other Subscription Agreements shall collectively be treated as an integrated transaction qualifying under Section 351(a) of the Code. Following the Closing, the Investor shall determine and notify ListCo of the value of the PIPE Securities issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and such value shall be utilized for purposes of valuing any PIPE Securities issued pursuant to any Other Subscription Agreement. Each party shall (and shall cause its respective affiliates to) prepare and file all tax returns consistent with, and take no position inconsistent with (whether in audits, tax returns or otherwise), this Section 11 (including with respect to the value of any of the PIPE Securities) unless otherwise required to do so pursuant to a final determination within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code.

12.       Miscellaneous.

a.       Neither this Subscription Agreement nor any rights that may accrue to the Investor hereunder (other than the PIPE Securities acquired hereunder and the rights set forth in Section 8 solely in connection with a transfer of such PIPE Securities (other than a transfer in connection with a sale pursuant to either an effective registration statement or under Rule 144), if any) may be transferred or assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after notifying ListCo, Investor may assign its rights and obligations under this Subscription Agreement to one or more of its affiliates (including other investment funds or accounts managed or advised by the investment manager who acts on behalf of Investor) or, with the Company’s prior written consent, to another person, provided that no such assignment shall relieve Investor of its obligations hereunder if any such assignee fails to perform such obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Warrants may not be transferred by the holder thereof following their issuance. Further, the Investor has the option to reduce the Additional Cash set forth on the signature page hereto with the gross proceeds (notwithstanding any fees netted therefrom) from any financing or commitment for financing for which, in either case, the proceeds of such financing are available to the Company, ARYA or ListCo, as applicable, on or prior to the Transaction Closing Date (any such financing, an “Additional Financing”) prior to the Closing, whether in the form of equity, debt or convertible debt, other than pursuant to the financing agreements entered into by ARYA or ListCo on the date hereof; provided that such reduction of the Additional Cash may not exceed $1,070,575.10. To the extent that the gross proceeds of any Additional Financing reduce the Additional Cash set forth on the signature page hereto, the number of Warrants and the Sponsor Promote Allocation Shares subscribed for by the Investor shall each be reduced in proportion to the amount by which the Additional Cash is reduced. The Investor agrees that to the extent the gross proceeds of any Additional Financing is applied at the option of the Investor as set forth in Section 3.1 of the Note Purchase Agreement, dated February [13], 2024, by and between the Investor, the Company and ListCo, then such Additional Cash may not also be used to reduce the Additional Cash set forth on the signature page hereto.

b.       ListCo may request from the Investor such additional information as ListCo may deem necessary to register the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities and evaluate the eligibility of the Investor to acquire the PIPE Securities, and the Investor shall provide any such information as may be reasonably requested. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other covenants or agreements in this Subscription Agreement, the Investor acknowledges that ListCo and ARYA may file a copy of this Subscription Agreement and the Warrant Agreement with the SEC as an exhibit to a periodic report or a registration statement of ListCo or ARYA.

c.       The Investor acknowledges that ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agent and others will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement, including Schedule A hereto. Prior to the Closing, the Investor agrees to promptly notify ListCo, ARYA, the Company and the Placement Agent in writing if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations or warranties set forth in Section 7 above are no longer accurate in any material respect (other than those acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties qualified by materiality, in which case the Investor shall notify ListCo, ARYA, the Company and the Placement Agent if they are no longer accurate in any respect). The Investor acknowledges and agrees that each purchase by the Investor of PIPE Securities from ListCo will constitute a reaffirmation of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties herein by the Investor as of the time of such purchase.

d.       The Investor agrees that, from the date hereof until the Closing or the earlier termination of this Subscription Agreement, none of the Investor or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or pursuant to any understanding with the Investor will engage in any hedging or other transactions or arrangements (including, without limitation, any short sale or the purchase or sale of, or entry into, any put or call option, or combination thereof, forward, swap or any other derivative transaction or similar instrument, including without limitation equity repurchase agreements and securities lending arrangements, however described or defined) designed or intended, or which could reasonably be expected to lead to or result in, a sale, loan, pledge or other disposition or transfer (whether by the Investor or any other person), in each case, solely to the extent it has the same economic effect as a “short sale” (as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act), of any economic consequences of ownership (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any consequences resulting solely from foreign exchange fluctuations), in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, physically or synthetically, of any PIPE Securities or any securities of ARYA prior to the Closing, whether any such transaction or arrangement (or instrument provided for thereunder) would be settled by delivery of securities of ARYA, in cash or otherwise, or to publicly disclose the intention to undertake any of the foregoing; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 12(d) shall not apply to long sales (including sales of securities held by the Investor, its controlled affiliates or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or any of its controlled affiliates prior to the date hereof and securities purchased by the Investor in the open market after the date hereof) other than those effectuated through derivative transactions and similar instruments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 12(d) (i) shall prohibit any entities under common management with the Investor that have no knowledge (constructive or otherwise) of this Subscription Agreement or of Investor’s participation in the transactions contemplated hereby from entering into any of the transactions set forth in the first sentence of this Section 12(d); and (ii) in the case of an Investor that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers or desks manage separate portions of such Investor’s assets and the portfolio managers have no knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Investor’s assets, this Section 12(d) shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the PIPE Securities covered by this Subscription Agreement.

e.       ListCo, ARYA and the Placement Agent are each entitled to rely upon this Subscription Agreement and each is irrevocably authorized to produce this Subscription Agreement or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby; provided, however, that the foregoing clause of this Section 12(e) shall not give the Placement Agent any rights other than those expressly set forth herein and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be entitled to rely on any of the representations and warranties of ListCo or ARYA set forth in this Subscription Agreement.

f.       All of the agreements, representations and warranties made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing.

g.       This Subscription Agreement may not be terminated other than pursuant to the terms of Section 9 above. The provisions of this Subscription Agreement may not be modified, amended or waived except by an instrument in writing, signed by each of the parties hereto; provided, however, that no modification, amendment or waiver by ListCo of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall be effective without the prior written consent of ARYA (other than modifications, amendments or waivers that are solely ministerial in nature or otherwise immaterial and, in each case, do not affect any economic or any other material term of this Subscription Agreement). No failure or delay of either party hereto in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have hereunder.

h.       This Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the schedule hereto and the Warrant Agreement attached hereto) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except as set forth in Section 3(b), Section 7, Section 9, Section 12(c), Section 12(e), Section 12(g), this Section 12(h) and the last sentence of Section 12(l) with respect to the persons specifically referenced therein, this Subscription Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto, and their respective successors and assigns, and the parties hereto acknowledge that such persons so referenced are third party beneficiaries of this Subscription Agreement with right of enforcement for the purposes of, and to the extent of, the rights granted to them, if any, pursuant to the applicable provisions.

i.       Except as otherwise provided herein, this Subscription Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives, and permitted assigns, and the agreements, representations, warranties, covenants and acknowledgments contained herein shall be deemed to be made by, and be binding upon, such heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.

j.       If any provision of this Subscription Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.

k.       This Subscription Agreement may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts (including, without limitation, by facsimile or electronic mail or in .pdf) and by different parties in separate counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document. All counterparts so executed and delivered shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same agreement.

l.       The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur if any of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Subscription Agreement, without posting a bond or undertaking and without proof of damages, to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Subscription Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Company shall be entitled to seek to specifically enforce the Investor’s obligations to fund the Additional Cash, ListCo’s obligations under this Subscription Agreement and the provisions of the Subscription Agreement of which the Company is an express third party beneficiary, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

Subscription Agreement:	This Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (“Warrant”) is issued pursuant to that certain Subscription Agreement, dated as of February [●], 2024, by and among the Company, ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, a Cayman Islands exempted company, and the Holder (as may be further amended and/or modified and in effect from time to time, the “Subscription Agreement”).

1.       Warrants.

a.       Form of Warrant. This Warrant, together with all of the other warrants to purchase Common Stock (such shares of Common Stock, the “Warrant Shares”) issued pursuant to the Other Subscription Agreements, including any warrants issued upon the transfer of such warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”), shall be issued in certificated form.

b.       Registration.

(i)       Warrant Register. The Company shall maintain books (the “Warrant Register”), for the registration of original issuance and the registration of transfer of this Warrant. Upon the initial issuance of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and register this Warrant in the name of the Holder. The Company shall provide 30 days’ prior written notice to the Holder of any appointment of or change in warrant agent and the new warrant agent’s contact information, including if the Company shall itself directly maintain the Warrant Register after a third-party warrant agent has been appointed.

This Warrant shall be signed by the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary or other principal officer of the Company. In the event the person whose signature has been placed upon this Warrant shall have ceased to serve in the capacity in which such person signed the Warrant before such Warrant is issued, it may be issued with the same effect as if he or she had not ceased to be such at the date of issuance.

(ii)       Registered Holder. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Warrant, the Company may deem and treat the person in whose name such Warrant is registered in the Warrant Register (the “Registered Holder”) as the absolute owner of such Warrant and of each Warrant represented thereby (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing on any physical certificate made by anyone other than the Company), for the purpose of any exercise thereof, and for all other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

(iii)       Registration of Transfer.    Subject to compliance with the legend set forth on the face of this Warrant, the Company shall register the valid transfer, in whole or in part, from time to time, of this Warrant upon the Warrant Register, upon surrender of this Warrant for transfer and a duly completed and executed written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly executed by the Registered Holder or its agent or attorney. Upon any such transfer, a new Warrant representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants shall be issued and the old Warrant shall be cancelled by the Company. Upon any partial transfer, the Company shall at its expense issue and deliver to the Registered Holder a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the Registered Holder, which shall be exercisable for such number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which rights under this Warrant were not so transferred. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Registered Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Registered Holder has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Registered Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within two (2) Trading Days of the date on which the Registered Holder delivers a duly completed and executed written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B to the Company assigning this Warrant in full.

(iv)       Transferability. This Warrant may not be transferred except for transfers to an affiliate (as defined in the Subscription Agreement) of the Holder or with the written consent of the Company.

c.       Procedure for Surrender of Warrants. This Warrant may be surrendered to the Company, together with a written request for exchange or transfer, and thereupon the Company shall issue in exchange therefor one or more new Warrants as requested by the Registered Holder of the Warrants so surrendered, representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants; provided, however, that if the Warrant so surrendered bears a restrictive legend, the Company shall not cancel such Warrant and issue new Warrants in exchange thereof until the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company stating that such transfer may be made and indicating whether the new Warrants must also bear a restrictive legend.

2.       Terms and Exercise of Warrants.

a.       Warrant Price. This Warrant shall entitle the Registered Holder, subject to the provisions hereof, to purchase from the Company the number of shares of Common Stock set forth above, at the price of $10.00 per share, subject to the adjustments provided in Section 3 hereof. The term “Warrant Price” as used in this Warrant shall mean the price per share of each Warrant Share that may be purchased at the time the Warrant is exercised.

b.       Duration of Warrants. A Warrant may be exercised only during the period (the “Exercise Period”) commencing on the Original Issue Date, and terminating at 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the date that is five (5) years after the Original Issue Date; provided, however, that the exercise of any Warrant shall be subject to the satisfaction of any applicable conditions set forth in this Warrant. Each outstanding Warrant not exercised on or before the Expiration Date shall become void, and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under such outstanding Warrant shall cease at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Expiration Date.

c.       Exercise of Warrants.

(i)       Payment. Subject to the provisions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder hereof, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the initial issuance date during the Exercise Period, by delivery of a duly executed PDF copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Warrant Exercise attached hereto as Exhibit A, duly executed, and by paying in full the Warrant Price for each full Warrant Share as to which this Warrant is exercised, the exchange of this Warrant for Warrant Shares and the issuance of such Warrant Shares in lawful money of the United States, by (i) wire transfer or in good certified check or good bank draft payable to the Company or (ii) or by “cashless exercise” in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) below. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Registered Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Registered Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Registered Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within five (5) Trading Days of the date the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise Form within one (1) trading day of receipt of such notice. The Registered Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

(1)       Cashless Exercise. If at the time of exercise hereof following the one-year anniversary of the Form 10 Disclosure Filing Date (as defined below) there is no effective registration statement registering the Warrant Shares, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Registered Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Registered Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:

(A) = as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Registered Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the Bid Price of the Common Stock on the principal Stock Exchange as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) as of the time of the Registered Holder’s execution of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a) hereof or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both executed and delivered pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;

(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and

(X) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of the portion of this Warrant specified in the Notice of Exercise in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.

If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the holding period of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Warrant. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this subsection 2.3.1(a).

“Bid Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Stock Exchange, the bid price of the Common Stock for the time in question (or the nearest preceding date) on the Stock Exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Stock Exchange, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Purchasers of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

“VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Stock Exchange, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Stock Exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Stock Exchange, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Purchasers of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

“Form 10 Disclosure Filing Date” means the date on which the Company shall file with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K (or any other applicable form) that includes current “Form 10 information” (within the meaning of Rule 144) reflecting the Company’s status as an entity that is no longer an issuer described in paragraph (i)(1)(i) of Rule 144.

(2)       Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Registered Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Registered Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Registered Holder; provided, however, that, in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Registered Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly executed by the Registered Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.

(ii)       Issuance of Warrant Shares on Exercise. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant and the clearance of the funds in payment of the Warrant Price (if payment is pursuant to subsection (i)), the Company shall issue to the Registered Holder a book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, for the number of shares of Warrant Shares to which he, she or it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by him, her or it, and if this Warrant shall not have been exercised in full, a new countersigned Warrant for the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant shall not have been exercised. If at the time of exercise of this Warrant, the Warrant Shares are not registered for resale pursuant to the Securities Act then such purchased Warrant Shares issued to a Registered Holder upon payment of the Warrant Price pursuant to subsection (i) shall bear a restrictive legend in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C. Warrants may not be exercised by, or securities issued to, any Registered Holder in any state in which such exercise would be unlawful. In the event that a Registered Holder reasonably determines that a consent, approval or authorization of, or designation, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Entity under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or under any other applicable antitrust or competition Laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction or any other merger control or investment Laws (collectively, “Antitrust Laws”) is required, then the making of any appropriate filings, the taking or causing to be taken of any required actions, and the expiration or the termination of the applicable waiting period, review period or comparable period, in each case as applicable under any such applicable Antitrust Laws, shall be a condition to the issuance of the Common Stock and the Company shall provide all reasonable assistance requested by the Registered Holder in connection with any required filings or actions under the applicable Antitrust Laws. The Company shall not take any action that would cause a Registered Holder’s ownership percentage of voting securities of the Company (as defined or interpreted under the applicable Antitrust Laws) to increase without providing notice to such Registered Holders for each to determine whether any filing, consent, approval or authorization of, or designation, declaration or filing with any Governmental Entity could be triggered under the applicable Antitrust Laws by the proposed Company action. If any Registered Holder determines that the proposed Company action requires clearance, approval or authorization under the applicable Antitrust Laws, then the obtaining of required clearance, approval or authorization, or the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period, review period or comparable period, as applicable, under the applicable Antitrust Laws shall be a condition to the Company taking its proposed action. If at any time a Registered Holder determines that it has a filing requirement or other requirement or obligation under the applicable Antitrust Laws, then the Company shall provide all reasonable assistance to such Registered Holder as reasonably requested by that Registered Holder in connection with any required filings or actions to be made or taken under the applicable Antitrust Laws. “Governmental Entity” as used in this subsection 2.3.2 shall mean any United States or non-United States (a) federal, state, local, municipal or other government, (b) governmental or quasi-governmental entity of any nature (including any governmental agency, branch, department, official, or entity and any court or other tribunal) or (c) body exercising or entitled to exercise any administrative, executive, judicial, legislative, police, regulatory, or taxing authority or power of any nature, including notified bodies as well as any arbitral tribunal (public or private). “Law” as used in this subsection 2.3.2 means any federal, state, local, foreign, national or supranational statute, law (including common law and, if applicable, fiduciary or similar duties), act, statute, ordinance, treaty, rule, code, regulation or other binding directive or guidance issued, promulgated or enforced by a Governmental Entity having jurisdiction over a given matter.

(iii)       Valid Issuance. All Warrant Shares issued upon the proper exercise of this Warrant shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

(iv)       Date of Issuance. Each person in whose name any book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, Warrant Shares are issued shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares of Common Stock on the date on which this Warrant was surrendered and payment of the Warrant Price was made, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company or book-entry system of the Company’s transfer agent are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such shares of Common Stock at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books or book-entry system are open.

(v)       Delivery of Certificates upon Exercise. Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Registered Holder by crediting the account of the Registered Holder’s or its designee’s prime broker with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Registered Holder or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Registered Holder without volume or manner of sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Warrants) (and the Registered Holder and its broker provide the Company and its transfer agent with customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company and its transfer agent in connection therewith), and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Registered Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Registered Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Registered Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is by the date that is the earliest of (i) two (2) Trading Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, (ii) one (1) Trading Day after delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company and (iii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Registered Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following delivery of the Notice of Exercise. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Registered Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the second Trading Day after Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Registered Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after the Warrant Share Delivery Date) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Stock Exchange with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise.

(vi)       Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Registered Holder a certificate or the certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2.3.4 by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Registered Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

(vii)       Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Registered Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Registered Holder a certificate or the certificates representing the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.3.4 above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Registered Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Registered Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Registered Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Registered Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Registered Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Registered Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Registered Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Registered Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Registered Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Registered Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Registered Holder $1,000. The Registered Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Registered Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

3.       Adjustments.

a.       Stock Dividends.

(i)       Split-Ups. If after the Original Issue Date, and subject to the provisions of 3.f below, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or by a split-up of shares of Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of Warrant Shares issuable on exercise of this Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding shares of Common Stock. A rights offering to holders of the Common Stock entitling holders to purchase shares of Common Stock at a price less than the Fair Market Value (as defined in this subsection 3.a(i)) shall be deemed a stock dividend of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for the Common Stock) and (ii) one (1) minus the quotient of (x) the price per share of Common Stock paid in such rights offering divided by (y) the Fair Market Value. For purposes of this subsection 3.a(i), (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock, in determining the price payable for shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) “Fair Market Value” means the volume weighted average price of the shares of Common Stock as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the Common Stock trades on the Stock Exchange, without the right to receive such rights.

(ii)       Extraordinary Dividends. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired, shall pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of the shares of Common Stock on account of such Common Stock (or other shares of the Company’s capital stock into which this Warrant is convertible), other than (a) as described in subsection 3.a(i) above, or (b) Ordinary Cash Dividends (as defined below) (any such non-excluded event being referred to herein as an “Extraordinary Dividend”), then the Warrant Price shall be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such Extraordinary Dividend, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value (as determined by the board of directors of the Company, in good faith) of any securities or other assets paid on each share of Common Stock in respect of such Extraordinary Dividend. For purposes of this subsection 3.a(ii), “Ordinary Cash Dividends” means any cash dividend or cash distribution which, when combined on a per share basis, with the per share amounts of all other cash dividends and cash distributions paid on the Common Stock during the 365-day period ending on the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution (as adjusted to appropriately reflect any of the events referred to in other subsections of this Section 3 and excluding cash dividends or cash distributions that resulted in an adjustment to the Warrant Price or to the number of Warrant Shares issuable on exercise of this Warrant) does not exceed $0.50.

b.       Aggregation of Shares. If after the Original Issue Date, and subject to the provisions of 3.f hereof, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse stock split or reclassification of Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse stock split, reclassification or similar event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of this Warrant shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of Common Stock.

c.       Adjustments in Exercise Price. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant is adjusted, as provided in subsection 3.a(i) or 3.b above, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted (to the nearest cent) by multiplying such Warrant Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall be the number of Warrant Shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock so purchasable immediately thereafter.

d.       Replacement of Securities upon Reorganization, etc. In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than a change under subsections 3.a(i) or 3.a(ii) or 3.b hereof or that solely affects the par value of such Common Stock), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity or conversion of the Company as another entity (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another entity of the assets or other property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company is dissolved, the Registered Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in this Warrant and in lieu of the Common Stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the Registered Holder would have received if the Registered Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such event (the “Alternative Issuance”) and the Company shall not enter into any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance unless the successor or purchasing entity agrees to provide for delivery of such Alternative Issuance; If any reclassification or reorganization also results in a change in shares of Common Stock covered by subsection 3.a(i), then such adjustment shall be made pursuant to subsection 3.a(i), 3.b, 3.c and this 3.d. The provisions of this 3.d shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers or consolidations, sales or other transfers. In no event will the Warrant Price be reduced to less than the par value per share issuable upon exercise of the Warrant.

e.       Notices of Changes in Warrant. Upon every adjustment of the Warrant Price or the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant, or upon the occurrence of any event specified in Sections a, b, c or d, the Company shall give written notice thereof to the Registered Holders, at the last address set forth for each such Registered Holder in the Warrant Register, of the record date or the effective date of the event. The notice shall state the adjusted Warrant Price, if applicable, and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable at such price upon the exercise of a Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such event.

f.       No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Warrant to the contrary, the Company shall not issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant. If, by reason of any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3, the Registered Holder would be entitled, upon the exercise of this Warrant, to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company shall, round down to the nearest whole number the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Registered Holder.

4.       Other Provisions Relating to Rights of Holders of Warrants.

a.       No Rights as Stockholder. This Warrant does not entitle the Registered Holder to any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends, or other distributions, exercise any preemptive rights to vote or to consent or to receive notice as shareholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter.

b.       Lost, Stolen, Mutilated, or Destroyed Warrants. If this Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed, the Company may on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may in its sole discretion impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination, tenor, and date as this Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilate or destroyed. Any such new Warrant shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

c.       Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available a number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock that shall be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants issued pursuant to the Subscription Agreement. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Stock Exchange upon which the Common Stock may be listed.

5.       Miscellaneous Provisions.

a.       Payment of Taxes. The Company shall from time to time promptly pay all taxes and charges that may be imposed upon the Company in respect of the issuance or delivery of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the Warrants, but the Company shall not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes in respect of the ownership of the Warrants or such underlying Common Stock.

b.       Successors. All the covenants and provisions of this Warrant by or for the benefit of the Company or the Registered Holder shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

c.       Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given when so delivered if by hand or overnight delivery or if sent by certified mail or private courier service within five (5) days after deposit of such notice, postage prepaid, addressed as follows: (i) if to the Registered Holder, at his, her or its address as shown in the Warrant Register; and (ii) if to the Company, at its principal office, to the attention of the Chief Financial Officer. Any party may change its address for purposes of this section by giving the other party written notice of the new address in the manner set forth above.

d.       Applicable Law. The validity, interpretation, and performance of the Warrants shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. The Company and the Registered Holder hereby agree that any action, proceeding or claim against either party arising out of or relating in any way to this Warrant shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of Delaware, and irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be exclusive. The Company and the Registered Holder hereby waive any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient forum.

e.       Persons Having Rights under this Warrant. Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to confer upon, or give to, any person or corporation other than the parties hereto any right, remedy, or claim under or by reason of this Warrant or of any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise, or agreement hereof. All covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises, and agreements contained in this Warrant shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto.

f.       Effect of Headings. The section headings herein are for convenience only and are not part of this Warrant and shall not affect the interpretation thereof.

g.       Amendments. This Warrant may only be amended or modified by written instrument executed by both the Company and the Registered Holder.

h.       Severability. This Warrant shall be deemed severable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision hereof shall not affect the validity or enforceability of this Warrant or of any other term or provision hereof. Furthermore, in lieu of any such invalid or unenforceable term or provision, the parties hereto intend that there shall be added as a part of this Warrant a provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be valid and enforceable.

i.       Complete Agreement. This Warrant (together with the Subscription Agreement) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

j.       Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Registered Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Registered Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Registered Holder for the purchase price of any Warrant Shares or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

k.       Remedies. The Registered Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

l.       Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Registered Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that all rights hereunder terminate on the Termination Date. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant or the Subscription Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Registered Holder, the Company shall pay to the Registered Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Registered Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

m.       Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a trading day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding trading day.

AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV

51 Astor Place, 10th Floor

New York, New York 10002

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This amendment (this “Amendment”) to the Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”), dated February 13, 2024, by and between Aja Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ListCo”), ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“ARYA”), and the undersigned subscriber (the “Investor”) is made pursuant to Section 11 (g) thereof. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings given them in the Agreement.

1. Company Convertible Notes. The parties to this Amendment hereby agree to amend the definition of “Company Convertible Notes” in the Subscription Agreement so that it includes the May Convertible Promissory Note (as defined below) and may also include any additional Convertible Promissory Notes that the Company may issue to the Investor prior to the Closing Date to fund ongoing working capital requirements of the Company and that the Investor may elect prior to the Closing Date, by notice to the Company, ARYA and ListCo, to subject to its Subscription Agreement (such additional Convertible Promissory Notes issued by the Company to the Investor, the “Additional Convertible Notes”). After giving effect to this Amendment, the definition of “Company Convertible Notes” in the Subscription Agreement shall include (a) the Convertible Promissory Notes, dated April 4, 2023, June 30, 2023, July 31, 2023, August 31, 2023, September 29, 2023, and October 26, 2023, each issued by the Company to the Investor, (b) the Convertible Promissory Notes, dated November 28, 2023, December 13, 2023, December 28, 2023 and January 29, 2024, (c) the Convertible Note, dated May 21, 2024, each issued by the Company to the Investor (the “May Convertible Promissory Note”), and (d) any Additional Convertible Notes, subject to the election of the Investor, as described in the foregoing.

2. Sponsor Promote Allocation Shares. The parties to this Amendment hereby also agree to increase the number of Sponsor Promote Allocation Shares from 690,458 to 757,124 in connection with the addition of the May Convertible Promissory Note to the definition of Company Convertible Notes, as described in the foregoing. Such increase in the number of Sponsor Promote Allocation Shares reflects an additional issuance to the Investor of 0.022222 Sponsor Promote Allocation Shares for each U.S. Dollar of funds loaned under the May Convertible Promissory Note by the Investor to the Company (such rate, the “Signing Incentive Share Issuance Rate”). Any Additional Convertible Note that the Investor elects to subject to this Subscription Agreement will result in the issuance of additional Sponsor Promote Allocation Shares to the Investor at the Signing Incentive Share Issuance Rate on the Closing Date based on the funds loaned by the Investor to the Company under any Additional Convertible Notes subject to this Subscription Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the May Convertible Promissory Note and any Additional Convertible Notes that the Investor subjects to this Subscription Agreement will also, mutatis mutandis, by operation of the different provisions of the Subscription Agreement as amended hereby, result in the issuance of additional PIPE Securities pursuant to the formulas described on the signature page of the Subscription Agreement.

Exhibit 10.18

AMENDED AND RESTATED SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV

51 Astor Place, 10^th Floor

New York, New York 10002

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This Amended and Restated Subscription Agreement (this “Subscription Agreement”) is being entered into as of the date set forth on the signature page hereto and amends and restates the Subscription Agreement, dated as of February 13, 2024 (as amended on June 24, 2024), by and between Aja Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation and prior to the Closing Date (as defined below), a wholly owned subsidiary of ARYA (“ListCo”), ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“ARYA”), and the undersigned subscriber (the “Investor”), in connection with the Business Combination Agreement, dated February 13, 2024 (as amended on June 25, 2024 and as may be further amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Transaction Agreement”), by and among ListCo, ARYA, Aja Merger Sub 1, a Cayman Islands exempted company and prior to the Closing Date, a wholly owned subsidiary of ListCo (“ARYA Merger Sub”), Aja Merger Sub 2, a Delaware corporation and prior to the Closing Date, a wholly owned subsidiary of ListCo (“Company Merger Sub”) and Adagio Medical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to which, among other things, ARYA Merger Sub will merge with and into ARYA and Company Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with ARYA and the Company surviving the mergers and ARYA and the Company becoming wholly owned subsidiaries of ListCo, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Transaction Agreement (the “Transaction”).

In connection with the Transaction, ListCo is seeking commitments from interested investors to purchase in a private placement, contingent upon, and substantially concurrently with the closing of the Transaction, (i) shares  (the “Shares”) of ListCo’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share  (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) warrants, each representing the right to purchase shares of Common Stock and to be represented by a warrant with the terms and conditions in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Warrant Agreement”) and which will be executed on the Closing Date (as defined below) (such warrants, the “Warrants” and together with the Shares, the “PIPE Securities”).  On February 13, 2024 and June 24, 2024, the parties to this Subscription Agreement (other than the Investor) entered into subscription agreements (as amended and restated on or about the date hereof, to the extent applicable, the “Other Subscription Agreements,” and together with this Subscription Agreement, the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain other investors (the “Other Investors,” and together with the Investor, the “Investors”). The shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants are herein after referred to as the “Warrant Shares.” The aggregate purchase price to be paid by the Investor for the PIPE Securities is referred to herein as the “Subscription Amount” and shall be comprised of (i) an amount of cash (the “Additional Cash”) set forth on the signature page hereto and (ii) the contribution by the Investor to ListCo of (a) the Convertible Promissory Notes, dated April 4, 2023, June 30, 2023, July 31, 2023, August 31, 2023, September 29, 2023, and October 26, 2023, each issued by the Company to the Investor, (b) the Convertible Promissory Notes, dated November 28, 2023, December 13, 2023, December 28, 2023 and January 29, 2024, (c) the Convertible Promissory Note, dated May 21, 2024, (d) the Convertible Promissory Note, dated June 25, 2024, and (e) the Convertible Promissory Note, dated July 24, 2024, each issued by the Company to the Investor (together, the “Company Convertible Notes”).

In connection therewith, and in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, each of the Investor, ARYA and ListCo acknowledges and agrees as follows:

1.         Subscription. The Investor hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from ListCo the number of PIPE Securities set forth on the signature page of this Subscription Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that ListCo reserves the right to accept or reject the Investor’s subscription for the PIPE Securities for any reason or for no reason, in whole or in part, at any time prior to its acceptance, and the same shall be deemed to be accepted by ListCo only when this Subscription Agreement is signed by a duly authorized person by or on behalf of ListCo; ListCo may do so in counterpart form. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the PIPE Securities that will be purchased by the Investor and issued by ListCo on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement, or in the case of the Warrant Shares, on the terms and conditions set forth in each of the Warrant Agreement, shall be securities of a Delaware corporation (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, securities of ARYA, a Cayman Islands exempted company).

2.          Closing. The closing of the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) is contingent upon the substantially concurrent consummation of the Transaction. The Closing shall occur contingent upon, and substantially concurrent with the effectiveness of the Transaction (the date the Closing so occurs, the “Closing Date”). Upon delivery of written notice from (or on behalf of) ListCo to the Investor (the “Closing Notice”), that ListCo reasonably expects all conditions to the closing of the Transaction under the Transaction Agreement to be satisfied or waived on a date that is not less than five (5) business days from the date on which the Closing Notice is delivered to the Investor, the Investor shall deliver to ListCo, three (3) business days prior to the anticipated closing date specified in the Closing Notice, (i) the Additional Cash by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to the account(s) specified by ListCo in the Closing Notice (which account shall not be an escrow account), and (ii) any other information that is reasonably requested in the Closing Notice in order for the PIPE Securities to be issued to the Investor, including, without limitation, the legal name of the person in whose name such securities are to be issued and a duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8, as applicable. On the Closing Date, the Company Convertible Notes shall be contributed by the Investor to ListCo, and in consideration for the Subscription Amount ListCo shall issue a number of PIPE Securities to the Investor set forth on the signature page to this Subscription Agreement and deliver a fully executed Warrant Agreement to the Investor, and subsequently cause the Shares to be registered in book entry form, free and clear of all liens (other than those arising under applicable securities laws), in the name of the Investor on ListCo’s share register; provided, however, that ListCo’s obligation to issue the PIPE Securities to the Investor is contingent upon ListCo having received the Additional Cash in full accordance with this Section 2. In the event the Closing does not occur within two (2) business days of the anticipated Closing Date specified in the Closing Notice, ListCo shall promptly (but not later than three (3) business days thereafter) return the Additional Cash to the Investor; provided that, unless this Subscription Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Section 9 hereof, such return of funds shall not terminate this Subscription Agreement or relieve the Investor of its obligation to purchase the PIPE Securities at the Closing upon the delivery by ListCo of a subsequent Closing Notice in accordance with this Section 2. In the event the Closing does not occur, the Company Convertible Notes shall be deemed not to have been contributed by the Investor to ListCo on the Closing Date and shall remain enforceable obligations against the Company in accordance with their terms. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banking institutions in New York, New York are authorized or required to close for business.

3.           Closing Conditions.

a.          The obligation of the parties hereto to consummate the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement is subject to the following conditions:

(i)          no applicable governmental authority shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any judgment, order, law, rule or regulation (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) which is then in effect and has the effect of making the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby illegal or otherwise enjoining, restraining or prohibiting consummation of (x) the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or (y) the Transaction; and

(ii)          (A) all conditions precedent to the closing of the Transaction set forth in Article 6 of the Transaction Agreement shall have been satisfied (which shall be deemed satisfied if mutually determined by the applicable parties to the Transaction Agreement and other than those conditions under the Transaction Agreement that, by their nature are to be satisfied in connection with the closing of the Transaction, including to the extent that any such condition is dependent upon the consummation of the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or the Other Subscription Agreements) or waived by the applicable parties to the Transaction Agreement as provided therein and (B) the closing of the Transaction shall be scheduled to occur concurrently with or on the same date as the Closing.

b.          The obligation of ListCo to consummate the sale and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement shall be subject to the conditions (which may be waived in writing (email being sufficient) by ListCo with the prior written consent of ARYA (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed)) that (i) all representations and warranties of the Investor contained in this Subscription Agreement are true and correct in all material respects at and as of the Closing Date (except for (i) those representations and warranties qualified by materiality, which shall be true and correct in all respects as of the Closing Date and (ii) those representations and warranties that speak as of a specified earlier date, which shall be so true and correct in all material respects (or, if qualified by materiality, in all respects) as of such specified earlier date) and (ii) all obligations, covenants and agreements of the Investor required to be performed by it at or prior to the Closing shall have been performed in all material respects.

c.          The obligation of the Investor to consummate the purchase of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement shall be subject to the conditions (which may be waived in writing (email being sufficient) by the Investor) that (i) all representations and warranties of ListCo and ARYA contained in this Subscription Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects at and as of the Closing Date (other than (A) representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or ARYA Material Adverse Effect or ListCo Material Adverse Effect (each as defined below), which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects and (B) for those representations and warranties that speak as of a specified earlier date, which shall be so true and correct in all material respects  (or, if qualified by materiality, in all respects) as of such specified earlier date); (ii) ListCo and ARYA shall have performed, satisfied and complied in all material respects with all obligations, covenants, agreements and conditions required by the Subscription Agreement to be performed, satisfied or complied with by it at or prior to the Closing; and (iii) the Shares acquired hereunder shall have been approved for listing by the Stock Exchange (as defined below).

4.          Further Assurances. At or prior to the Closing, the parties hereto shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional documents and take such additional actions as the parties reasonably may deem to be practical and necessary in order to consummate the subscription as contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

5.           ListCo Representations and Warranties. ListCo represents and warrants to the Investor that:

a.          ListCo is duly incorporated and validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. ListCo has all power (corporate or otherwise) and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as presently conducted and to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement.

b.          As of the Closing Date, the Shares, the Warrants and any Warrant Shares, will be duly authorized and, when issued and delivered to the Investor against full payment therefor in accordance with the terms of this Subscription Agreement or the Warrant Agreement, as applicable, such Shares or Warrant Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will not have been issued in violation of or subject to any preemptive or similar rights created under ListCo’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws (each, as amended on the Closing Date) or under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or under any agreement or instrument to which ListCo is a party. As of the Closing Date, the Warrant Shares will have been duly reserved for issuance in an amount of duly authorized shares of Common Stock that is equal to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the initial exercise of the Warrants. ListCo shall keep such number of shares of Common Stock as necessary to satisfy the exercise of the Warrants at all times reserved for issuance until the earlier of the exercise of the Warrants in full or the expiration of the Warrants in accordance with their respective terms. The Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of any Warrant will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. On the Closing Date, the Warrant Agreement will be duly authorized, and when executed and delivered by ListCo, will constitute the valid and binding agreement of ListCo and will be enforceable against ListCo in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

c.          This Subscription Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered by ListCo and, assuming that this Subscription Agreement constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the Investor and ARYA, this Subscription Agreement is enforceable against ListCo in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

d.          The sale and issuance of the PIPE Securities and the compliance by ListCo with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the Warrant Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, including the issuance of the Warrant Shares, will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of ListCo or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is subject that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the validity of the PIPE Securities, including the Warrant Shares, or legal authority of ListCo to comply in all material respects with the terms of this Subscription Agreement, the Warrant Agreement or the Transaction (a “ListCo Material Adverse Effect”); (ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of ListCo; or (iii) result in any violation of any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over ListCo or any of its properties that would reasonably be expected to have a ListCo Material Adverse Effect.

e.          As of the date of this Subscription Agreement, the authorized share capital of ListCo (excluding the PIPE Securities) consists of one thousand (1,000) shares of Common Stock and the issued share capital of ListCo consists of one (1) share of Common Stock, which (A) has been duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, (B) has been issued in compliance with applicable law and (C) has not been issued in breach or violation of any preemptive rights or contract. Immediately following the Closing, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock shall (A) be, or have been duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, (B) shall have been issued in compliance with applicable law and (C) not have been issued in breach or violation of any preemptive rights or contract. There are no shareholder agreements, voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to which ListCo is a party or by which it is bound relating to the voting of any securities of ListCo, other than (1) as set forth in the SEC Reports (as defined below) and (2) as contemplated by the Transaction Agreement. Except as set forth above and pursuant to the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement and the other agreements and arrangements referred to therein, as of the date hereof, there are no outstanding options, warrants or other rights to subscribe for, purchase or acquire from ListCo any equity interests in ListCo, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such equity interests. As of the date hereof, ListCo has no subsidiaries, other than ARYA Merger Sub and Company Merger Sub, and does not own, directly or indirectly, interests or investments (whether equity or debt) in any person, whether incorporated or unincorporated.

f.           Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Investor, ListCo is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by ListCo of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance by ListCo of the PIPE Securities or any Warrant Shares), other than (i) filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), (ii) filings required by applicable state securities laws, (iii) filings required by Nasdaq, or such other applicable stock exchange on which ListCo’s common equity will be listed (the “Stock Exchange”), (iv) those required to consummate the Transaction as provided under the Transaction Agreement, and (v) those of which the failure to obtain would not be reasonably likely to have a ListCo Material Adverse Effect.

g.          As of the date hereof, there is no suit, action, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of ListCo, threatened against ListCo by the Stock Exchange or the SEC, respectively, to prohibit the listing of the Shares and Warrant Shares, or the registration of, when issued in connection with the closing of the Transaction, the Shares and Warrant Shares under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

h.          Assuming the accuracy of the Investor’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 7, no registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) is required for the offer and sale of the PIPE Securities by ListCo to the Investor hereunder. The PIPE Securities (i) were not offered to the Investor by any form of general solicitation or general advertising and (ii) are not being offered to the Investor in a manner involving a public offering under, or in a distribution in violation of, the Securities Act, or any state securities laws.

i.           Except for such matters as have not had and would not be reasonably likely to have a ListCo Material Adverse Effect, as of the date hereof, there is no (i) action, suit, claim or other proceeding, in each case by or before any governmental authority pending, or, to the knowledge of ListCo, threatened against ListCo or (ii) judgment, decree, injunction, ruling or order of any governmental entity or arbitrator outstanding against ListCo.

j.          ListCo has not engaged any broker, finder, commission agent, placement agent or arranger in connection with the sale of the PIPE Securities, and ListCo is not under any obligation to pay any broker’s fee or commission in connection with the sale of the PIPE Securities other than to the Placement Agent at Closing.

k.         ListCo acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Shares and Warrant Shares may be pledged by Investor in connection with a bona fide margin agreement, provided such pledge shall be (i) pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or (ii) pursuant to, and in accordance with, a registration statement that is effective under the Securities Act at the time of such pledge, and the Investor effecting a pledge of the Shares and Warrant Shares, shall not be required to provide ListCo with any notice thereof; provided, however, that neither ListCo, ARYA, the Company or their respective counsels shall be required to take any action (or refrain from taking any action) in connection with any such pledge, other than providing any such lender of such margin agreement with an acknowledgment that the Shares and Warrant Shares are not subject to any contractual prohibition on pledging or lock up, the form of such acknowledgment to be subject to review and comment by ListCo in all respects.

l.           Other than the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement and any other agreement contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, as of the date hereof, ListCo has not entered into any side letter or similar agreement with any Other Investor or any other investor in connection with such Other Investor’s or investor’s direct or indirect investment in ListCo (other than any side letter or similar agreement relating to the transfer to any investor of securities to be issued to the direct or indirect securityholders of the Company pursuant to the Transaction Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that ListCo may enter into additional subscription agreements after the date hereof; provided, however, that if any such agreement is with respect to equity financing, then any such agreement shall be on substantially the same terms and at an effective offering price no less than as provided for pursuant to this subscription Agreement. The Other Subscription Agreements have not been amended or modified in any material respect following the date of this Subscription Agreement.

6.           ARYA Representations and Warranties. ARYA represents and warrants to the Investor that:

a.          ARYA has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as an exempted company under the laws of the Cayman Islands, in good standing under the laws of the Cayman Islands, with power (corporate or otherwise) and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as presently conducted and to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement.

b.          This Subscription Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered by ARYA and, assuming that this Subscription Agreement constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the Investor and ListCo, this Subscription Agreement is enforceable against ARYA in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

c.          As of the date hereof, the authorized share capital of ARYA consists of (i) 479,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Shares”), (ii) 20,000,000 Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Shares” and together with the Class A Shares, the “ARYA Ordinary Shares”), and (iii) 1,000,000 preference shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preference Shares”). As of the date of this Subscription Agreement, (i) no Preference Shares are issued and outstanding, (ii) 3,799,016 Class A Shares are issued and outstanding, and (iii) 3,737,500 Class B Shares are issued and outstanding. All issued and outstanding Class A Shares and Class B Shares are fully paid and nonassessable, as such term or similar concept may be applicable to a Cayman Islands exempted company, have been duly authorized and validly issued and issued in compliance with applicable law and have not been issued in breach or violation of any preemptive rights or contract. There are no shareholder agreements, voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to which ARYA is a party or by which it is bound relating to the voting of any securities of ARYA, other than (1) as set forth in the SEC Reports and (2) as contemplated by the Transaction Agreement. Except as set forth above and pursuant to the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement and the other agreements and arrangements referred to therein, as of the date hereof, there are no outstanding options, warrants or other rights to subscribe for, purchase or acquire from ARYA any Class A Shares, Class B Shares or other equity interests in ARYA, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such equity interests. As of the date hereof, ARYA has no subsidiaries, other than ListCo, ARYA Merger Sub and Company Merger Sub, and does not own, directly or indirectly, interests or investments (whether equity or debt) in any person, whether incorporated or unincorporated.

d.          A copy of each form, report, statement, schedule, proxy and other document filed by ARYA with the SEC on or prior to the Closing Date (the “SEC Reports”) is available to the Investor (including via the SEC’s EDGAR system). ARYA has timely filed the SEC Reports with the SEC through the date hereof (after giving effect to any applicable grace period). As of their respective filing dates all SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Reports. None of the SEC Reports filed under the Exchange Act (except to the extent that information contained in any SEC Report has been superseded by a later timely filed SEC Report) contained, when filed or, if amended, as of the date of such amendment with respect to those disclosures that are amended, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The financial statements of ARYA included in the SEC Reports, as applicable, comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing, or, if amended, as of the date of such amendment, and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of ARYA as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented, subject to (i) in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, year-end audit adjustments, and such consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (“GAAP”) (except as may be disclosed therein or in the notes thereto, and except that the unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP), and (ii) changes to historical accounting policies of ARYA in connection with any order, directive, guideline, comment or recommendation from the SEC that is applicable to ARYA. There are no outstanding or unresolved comments in comment letters from the staff of the SEC with respect to any of the SEC Reports. For the avoidance of doubt, any restatement of the financial statements of ARYA and any amendments to previously filed SEC Reports or delays in filing SEC Reports, in connection with any guidance from the SEC following the date of this Subscription Agreement, shall not be deemed to constitute a breach of this Section 6(d). Additionally, for avoidance of doubt, any amendment or modification of any SEC Report (or any agreement filed as an exhibit to any SEC Report) from its initial filing date in a subsequent filing shall not be deemed to constitute a breach of this Section 6(d).

e.          The sale and issuance of the PIPE Securities and the compliance by ARYA with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, including the issuance of the Warrant Shares, will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of ARYA or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which ARYA or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which ARYA or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of ARYA or any of its subsidiaries is subject that would reasonably be expected to materially affect or legal authority of ARYA to comply in all material respects with the terms of this Subscription Agreement or the Transaction (an “ARYA Material Adverse Effect”); (ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of ARYA; or (iii) result in any violation of any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over ARYA or any of its properties that would reasonably be expected to have an ARYA Material Adverse Effect.

The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the PIPE Securities and Warrant Shares will not immediately be eligible for offer, resale, transfer or disposition pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”).

c.          The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Investor is purchasing the PIPE Securities directly from ListCo. The Investor further acknowledges that there have not been, and the Investor hereby agrees that it is not relying on, representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made to the Investor by or on behalf of ListCo, ARYA, the Company, Jefferies LLC, Chardan Capital Markets, LLC (Jefferies LLC and Chardan Capital Markets, LLC and any of their respective affiliates, the “Placement Agent”), any of their respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing or any other person or entity, expressly or by implication, other than those representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of ListCo expressly set forth in Section 5 and ARYA expressly set forth in Section 6 of this Subscription Agreement.

d.          The Investor’s acquisition and holding of the PIPE Securities will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any applicable similar law.

e.          The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Investor has received such information as the Investor deems necessary in order to make an investment decision with respect to the PIPE Securities including, without limitation, with respect to ARYA, the Transaction and the business of the Company and its subsidiaries. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Investor acknowledges that it has reviewed the SEC Reports. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Investor and the Investor’s professional advisor(s), if any, have had the full opportunity to ask such questions, receive such answers and obtain such information as the Investor and the Investor’s professional advisor(s), if any, deemed necessary to make an investment decision with respect to the PIPE Securities.

f.          The Investor became aware of this offering of the PIPE Securities solely by means of direct contact between the Investor, ARYA, ListCo or the Company or a representative of ARYA, ListCo or the Company, and the PIPE Securities were offered to the Investor solely by direct contact between the Investor and ARYA, ListCo or the Company or a representative of ListCo, ARYA or the Company.  The Investor did not become aware of this offering of the PIPE Securities, nor were the PIPE Securities offered to the Investor, by any other means and none of ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agents or their respective representatives or any person acting on behalf of any of them acted as investment advisor, broker or dealer to the Investor. The Investor acknowledges that the PIPE Securities (i) were not offered by any form of general solicitation or general advertising and (ii) are not being offered in a manner involving a public offering under, or in a distribution in violation of, the Securities Act, or any state securities laws.

g.          The Investor acknowledges that it is aware that there are substantial risks incident to the purchase and ownership of the PIPE Securities, including, without limitation, those set forth in the SEC Reports. The Investor has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the PIPE Securities, and the Investor has had an opportunity to seek, and has sought such accounting, legal, business and tax advice as the Investor has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision and the Investor has made its own assessment and satisfied itself concerning relevant tax and other economic considerations relative to its purchase of the PIPE Securities. The Investor (i) is an institutional account as defined in FINRA Rule 4512(c), (ii) is a sophisticated investor, experienced in investing in private equity transactions and capable of evaluating investment risks independently, both in general and with regard to all transactions and investment strategies involving a security or securities, and (iii) has exercised independent judgment in evaluating its participation in the purchase of the PIPE Securities.

The Investor will not look to the Placement Agents for all or part of any such loss or losses the Investor may suffer, is able to sustain a complete loss on its investment in the PIPE Securities, has no need for liquidity with respect to its investment in the PIPE Securities and has no reason to anticipate any change in circumstances, financial or otherwise, which may cause or require any sale or distribution of all or any part of the PIPE Securities.

h.          Alone, or together with any professional advisor(s), the Investor has adequately analyzed and fully considered the risks of an investment in the PIPE Securities and determined that the PIPE Securities are a suitable investment for the Investor and that the Investor is able at this time and in the foreseeable future to bear the economic risk of a total loss of the Investor’s investment in ListCo. The Investor acknowledges specifically that a possibility of total loss exists.

i.           In making its decision to purchase the PIPE Securities, the Investor has relied solely upon independent investigation made by the Investor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Investor has not relied on any statements or other information provided by or on behalf of the Placement Agents or any of their respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing concerning ListCo, the Company, the Transaction, the Transaction Agreement, this Subscription Agreement, the Warrant Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the PIPE Securities or the offer and sale of the PIPE Securities.

j.           The Investor acknowledges and agrees that no federal or state agency has passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the PIPE Securities or made any findings or determination as to the fairness of this investment.

10.        Trust Account Waiver. The Investor acknowledges that ARYA is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving ARYA and one or more businesses or assets. The Investor further acknowledges that, as described in ARYA’s final prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated February 25, 2021 (the “Final Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of ARYA’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of ARYA’s initial public offering and private placement of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of ARYA, its public shareholders and the underwriters of ARYA’s initial public offering. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to ARYA to pay its tax obligations, if any, the cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only for the purposes set forth in the Final Prospectus. For and in consideration of ARYA entering into this Subscription Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Investor, on behalf of itself and its representatives, hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind it has or may have in the future, in or to any monies held in the Trust Account (or distributions therefrom to ARYA’s public shareholders or to the underwriters of ARYA’s initial public offering in respect of their deferred underwriting commissions held in the Trust Account), and agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 10 shall be deemed to limit the Investor’s right, title, interest or claim to any monies held in the Trust Account by virtue of its record or beneficial ownership of publicly traded Class A Shares acquired in an open market transaction, pursuant to a validly exercised redemption right with respect to any such Class A Shares, in accordance with ARYA’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended in connection with the shareholder meetings of ARYA on February 28, 2023 and February 27, 2024 and as may be subsequently amended from time to time, and the Investment Management Trust Agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company and ARYA, dated March 2, 2021, except to the extent that the Investor has otherwise agreed in writing with ListCo, ARYA, the Company or any of their respective affiliates to not exercise such redemption right.

11.        Tax Matters. The parties to this Subscription Agreement intend that the Transaction and the issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and certain Other Subscription Agreements shall collectively be treated as an integrated transaction qualifying under Section 351(a) of the Code. Following the Closing, the Investor shall determine and notify ListCo of the value of the PIPE Securities issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and such value shall be utilized for purposes of valuing any PIPE Securities issued pursuant to any Other Subscription Agreement. Each party shall (and shall cause its respective affiliates to) prepare and file all tax returns consistent with, and take no position inconsistent with (whether in audits, tax returns or otherwise), this Section 11 (including with respect to the value of any of the PIPE Securities) unless otherwise required to do so pursuant to a final determination within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code.

12.         Miscellaneous.

a.          Neither this Subscription Agreement nor any rights that may accrue to the Investor hereunder (other than the PIPE Securities acquired hereunder and the rights set forth in Section 8 solely in connection with a transfer of such PIPE Securities (other than a transfer in connection with a sale pursuant to either an effective registration statement or under Rule 144), if any) may be transferred or assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after notifying ListCo, Investor may assign its rights and obligations under this Subscription Agreement to one or more of its affiliates (including other investment funds or accounts managed or advised by the investment manager who acts on behalf of Investor) or, with the Company’s prior written consent, to another person, provided that no such assignment shall relieve Investor of its obligations hereunder if any such assignee fails to perform such obligations. Further, the Investor has the option to reduce the Additional Cash set forth on the signature page hereto with the gross proceeds (notwithstanding any fees netted therefrom) from any financing or commitment for financing for which, in either case, the proceeds of such financing are available to the Company, ARYA or ListCo, as applicable, on or prior to the Transaction Closing Date (any such financing, an “Additional Financing”) prior to the Closing, whether in the form of equity, debt or convertible debt, other than pursuant to the financing agreements entered into by ARYA or ListCo on the date hereof; provided that such reduction of the Additional Cash may not exceed $1,070,575.10. To the extent that the gross proceeds of any Additional Financing reduce the Additional Cash set forth on the signature page hereto, the number of Warrants and the Sponsor Promote Allocation Shares subscribed for by the Investor shall each be reduced in proportion to the amount by which the Additional Cash is reduced. The Investor agrees that to the extent the gross proceeds of any Additional Financing is applied at the option of the Investor as set forth in Section 3.1 of the Note Purchase Agreement, dated February 13, 2024, by and between the Investor, the Company and ListCo, then such Additional Cash may not also be used to reduce the Additional Cash set forth on the signature page hereto.

b.          ListCo may request from the Investor such additional information as ListCo may deem necessary to register the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities and evaluate the eligibility of the Investor to acquire the PIPE Securities, and the Investor shall provide any such information as may be reasonably requested. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other covenants or agreements in this Subscription Agreement, the Investor acknowledges that ListCo and ARYA may file a copy of this Subscription Agreement and the Warrant Agreement with the SEC as an exhibit to a periodic report or a registration statement of ListCo or ARYA.

c.          The Investor acknowledges that ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agent and others will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement, including Schedule A hereto. Prior to the Closing, the Investor agrees to promptly notify ListCo, ARYA, the Company and the Placement Agent in writing if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations or warranties set forth in Section 7 above are no longer accurate in any material respect (other than those acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties qualified by materiality, in which case the Investor shall notify ListCo, ARYA, the Company and the Placement Agent if they are no longer accurate in any respect). The Investor acknowledges and agrees that each purchase by the Investor of PIPE Securities from ListCo will constitute a reaffirmation of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties herein by the Investor as of the time of such purchase.

d.          The Investor agrees that, from the date hereof until the Closing or the earlier termination of this Subscription Agreement, none of the Investor or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or pursuant to any understanding with the Investor will engage in any hedging or other transactions or arrangements (including, without limitation, any short sale or the purchase or sale of, or entry into, any put or call option, or combination thereof, forward, swap or any other derivative transaction or similar instrument, including without limitation equity repurchase agreements and securities lending arrangements, however described or defined) designed or intended, or which could reasonably be expected to lead to or result in, a sale, loan, pledge or other disposition or transfer (whether by the Investor or any other person), in each case, solely to the extent it has the same economic effect as a “short sale” (as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act), of any economic consequences of ownership (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any consequences resulting solely from foreign exchange fluctuations), in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, physically or synthetically, of any PIPE Securities or any securities of ARYA prior to the Closing, whether any such transaction or arrangement (or instrument provided for thereunder) would be settled by delivery of securities of ARYA, in cash or otherwise, or to publicly disclose the intention to undertake any of the foregoing; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 12(d) shall not apply to long sales (including sales of securities held by the Investor, its controlled affiliates or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or any of its controlled affiliates prior to the date hereof and securities purchased by the Investor in the open market after the date hereof) other than those effectuated through derivative transactions and similar instruments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 12(d) (i) shall prohibit any entities under common management with the Investor that have no knowledge (constructive or otherwise) of this Subscription Agreement or of Investor’s participation in the transactions contemplated hereby from entering into any of the transactions set forth in the first sentence of this Section 12(d); and (ii) in the case of an Investor that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers or desks manage separate portions of such Investor’s assets and the portfolio managers have no knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Investor’s assets, this Section 12(d) shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the PIPE Securities covered by this Subscription Agreement.

e.          ListCo, ARYA and the Placement Agents are each entitled to rely upon this Subscription Agreement and each is irrevocably authorized to produce this Subscription Agreement or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby; provided, however, that the foregoing clause of this Section 12(e) shall not give the Placement Agents any rights other than those expressly set forth herein and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be entitled to rely on any of the representations and warranties of ListCo or ARYA set forth in this Subscription Agreement.

Exhibit 10.19

AMENDED AND RESTATED SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV

51 Astor Place, 10^th Floor

New York, New York 10002

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This Amended and Restated Subscription Agreement (this “Subscription Agreement”) is being entered into as of the date set forth on the signature page hereto and amends and restates the Subscription Agreement, dated as of February 13, 2024, by and between Aja Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation and prior to the Closing Date (as defined below), a wholly owned subsidiary of ARYA (“ListCo”), ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“ARYA”), and the undersigned subscriber (the “Investor”), in connection with the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of February 13, 2024 (as amended on June 25, 2024 and as may be further amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Transaction Agreement”), by and among ListCo, ARYA, Aja Merger Sub 1, a Cayman Islands exempted company and prior to the Closing Date, a wholly owned subsidiary of ListCo (“ARYA Merger Sub”), Aja Merger Sub 2, a Delaware corporation and prior to the Closing Date, a wholly owned subsidiary of ListCo (“Company Merger Sub”) and Adagio Medical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to which, among other things, ARYA Merger Sub will merge with and into ARYA and Company Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with ARYA and the Company surviving the mergers and ARYA and the Company becoming wholly owned subsidiaries of ListCo, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Transaction Agreement (the “Transaction”).

In connection with the Transaction, ListCo is seeking commitments from interested investors to purchase in a private placement, contingent upon, and substantially concurrently with the closing of the Transaction, (i) shares (the “Shares”) of ListCo’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), (ii) pre-funded warrants each representing the right to purchase shares of Common Stock and to be represented by a warrant with the terms and conditions in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Pre-Funded Warrant Agreement”) and which will be executed and issued on the Closing Date (as defined below) (such warrants, the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) and (iii) warrants, each representing the right to purchase shares of Common Stock and to be represented by a warrant with the terms and conditions in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Warrant Agreement”) and which will be executed and issued on the Closing Date (such warrants, the “Warrants” and together with the Shares and Pre-Funded Warrants, the “PIPE Securities”).  The shares of Common Stock underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Warrants are herein after referred to as the “Warrant Shares.” On February 13, 2024 and June 24, 2024, the parties to this Subscription Agreement (other than the Investor) entered into subscription agreements (as amended and restated on or about the date hereof, to the extent applicable, the “Other Subscription Agreements,” and together with this Subscription Agreement, the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain other investors (the “Other Investors,” and together with the Investor, the “Investors”). The aggregate purchase price to be paid by the Investor for the PIPE Securities (as set forth on the signature page hereto) is referred to herein as the “Subscription Amount.”

In connection therewith, and in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, each of the Investor, ARYA and ListCo acknowledges and agrees as follows:

1.          Subscription. The Investor hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from ListCo the number of PIPE Securities set forth on the signature page of this Subscription Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that ListCo reserves the right to accept or reject the Investor’s subscription for the PIPE Securities for any reason or for no reason, in whole or in part, at any time prior to its acceptance, and the same shall be deemed to be accepted by ListCo only when this Subscription Agreement is signed by a duly authorized person by or on behalf of ListCo; ListCo may do so in counterpart form. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the PIPE Securities that will be purchased by the Investor and issued by ListCo on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement, or in the case of the Warrant Shares, on the terms and conditions set forth in each of the Pre-Funded Warrant Agreement and the Warrant Agreement, shall be securities of a Delaware corporation (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, securities of ARYA, a Cayman Islands exempted company).

2.          Closing. The closing of the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) is contingent upon the substantially concurrent consummation of the Transaction. The Closing shall occur contingent upon, and substantially concurrent with the effectiveness of the Transaction (the date the Closing so occurs, the “Closing Date”). Upon delivery of written notice from (or on behalf of) ListCo to the Investor (the “Closing Notice”), that ListCo reasonably expects all conditions to the closing of the Transaction under the Transaction Agreement to be satisfied or waived on a date that is not less than five (5) business days from the date on which the Closing Notice is delivered to the Investor, the Investor shall deliver to ListCo, three (3) business days prior to the anticipated closing date specified in the Closing Notice, (i) the Subscription Amount by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to the account(s) specified by ListCo in the Closing Notice (which account shall not be an escrow account) and (ii) any other information that is reasonably requested in the Closing Notice in order for the PIPE Securities to be issued to the Investor, including, without limitation, the legal name of the person in whose name such securities are to be issued and a duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8, as applicable. On the Closing Date, ListCo shall issue a number of PIPE Securities to the Investor set forth on the signature page to this Subscription Agreement, including by delivering the executed Pre-Funded Warrant Agreement and the Warrant Agreement to the Investor, and subsequently cause the Shares to be registered in book entry form, free and clear of all liens (other than those arising under applicable securities laws), in the name of the Investor on ListCo’s share register; provided, however, that ListCo’s obligation to issue the PIPE Securities to the Investor is contingent upon ListCo having received the Subscription Amount in full accordance with this Section 2. In the event the Closing does not occur within two (2) business days of the anticipated Closing Date specified in the Closing Notice, ListCo shall promptly (but not later than three (3) business days thereafter) return the Subscription Amount to the Investor; provided that, unless this Subscription Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Section 9 hereof, such return of funds shall not terminate this Subscription Agreement or relieve the Investor of its obligation to purchase the PIPE Securities at the Closing upon the delivery by ListCo of a subsequent Closing Notice in accordance with this Section 2. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banking institutions in New York, New York are authorized or required to close for business.

3.            Closing Conditions

a.         The obligation of the parties hereto to consummate the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement is subject to the following conditions:

(ii)        (A) all conditions precedent to the closing of the Transaction set forth in Article 6 of the Transaction Agreement shall have been satisfied (which shall be deemed satisfied if mutually determined by the applicable parties to the Transaction Agreement and other than those conditions under the Transaction Agreement that, by their nature are to be satisfied in connection with the closing of the Transaction, including to the extent that any such condition is dependent upon the consummation of the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or the Other Subscription Agreements) or waived by the applicable parties to the Transaction Agreement as provided therein and (B) the closing of the Transaction shall be scheduled to occur concurrently with or on the same date as the Closing.

b.          The obligation of ListCo to consummate the sale and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement shall be subject to the conditions (which may be waived in writing (email being sufficient) by ListCo with the prior written consent of ARYA (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed)) that (i) all representations and warranties of the Investor contained in this Subscription Agreement are true and correct in all material respects at and as of the Closing Date (except for (i) those representations and warranties qualified by materiality, which shall be true and correct in all respects as of the Closing Date and (ii) those representations and warranties that speak as of a specified earlier date, which shall be so true and correct in all material respects (or, if qualified by materiality, in all respects) as of such specified earlier date) and (ii) all obligations, covenants and agreements of the Investor required to be performed by it at or prior to the Closing shall have been performed in all material respects.

The obligation of the Investor to consummate the purchase of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement shall be subject to the conditions (which may be waived in writing (email being sufficient) by the Investor) that (i) all representations and warranties of ListCo and ARYA contained in this Subscription Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects at and as of the Closing Date (other than (A) representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or ARYA Material Adverse Effect or ListCo Material Adverse Effect (each as defined below), which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects and (B) those representations and warranties that speak as of a specified earlier date, which shall be so true and correct in all material respects (or, if qualified by materiality, in all respects) as of such specified earlier date); (ii) ListCo and ARYA shall have performed, satisfied and complied in all material respects with all obligations, covenants, agreements and conditions required by the Subscription Agreement to be performed, satisfied or complied with by it at or prior to the Closing; and (iii) the Shares acquired hereunder shall have been approved for listing by the Stock Exchange (as defined below).

4.          Further Assurances. At or prior to the Closing, the parties hereto shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional documents and take such additional actions as the parties reasonably may deem to be practical and necessary in order to consummate the subscription as contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

5.          ListCo Representations and Warranties. ListCo represents and warrants to the Investor that:

a.         ListCo is duly incorporated and validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. ListCo has all power (corporate or otherwise) and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as presently conducted and to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement.

b.         As of the Closing Date, the Shares, the Warrants, the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Warrant Shares will be duly authorized and, when issued and delivered to the Investor against full payment therefor in accordance with the terms of this Subscription Agreement, or the Pre-Funded Warrant Agreement or the Warrant Agreement, as applicable, such Shares or Warrant Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will not have been issued in violation of or subject to any preemptive or similar rights created under ListCo’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws (each, as amended on the Closing Date) or under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or under any agreement or instrument to which ListCo is a party. As of the Closing Date, the Warrant Shares will have been duly reserved for issuance in an amount of duly authorized shares of Common Stock that is equal to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the initial exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Warrants. ListCo shall keep such number of shares of Common Stock as necessary to satisfy the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants at all times reserved for issuance until the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants in full. ListCo shall keep such number of shares of Common Stock as necessary to satisfy the exercise of the Warrants at all times reserved for issuance until the earlier of the exercise of the Warrants in full or the expiration of the Warrants in accordance with their respective terms. The Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of any Pre-Funded Warrant or Warrant will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

u.          The Investor acknowledges and agrees that none of the Placement Agents shall have any liability or obligation (including without limitation, for or with respect to any losses, claims, damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, costs, expenses or disbursements incurred by the Investor, ListCo, ARYA or any other person or entity), whether in contract, tort or otherwise, to the Investor, or to any person claiming through the Investor, in respect of this offering of the PIPE Securities or the Transaction.

8.           Registration Rights.

a.          In the event that the Shares and the Warrant Shares (such securities, the “PIPE Registrable Securities”) are not registered in connection with the consummation of the Transaction, ListCo agrees that, within forty-five (45) calendar days after the consummation of the Transaction (the “Filing Date”), it will file with the SEC (at its sole cost and expense) a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) registering the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities, and it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) ninety (90) calendar days after the filing thereof (or one hundred-twenty (120) calendar days after the filing thereof if the SEC notifies ListCo that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the Filing Date and (ii) ten (10) business days after ListCo 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. ListCo agrees to cause such Registration Statement, or another shelf registration statement that includes the PIPE Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, to remain effective until the earliest of (i) the date that is five years and six months following the Closing, (ii) the date on which the Investor ceases to hold any PIPE Registrable Securities or any Pre-Funded Warrants or Warrants issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, or (iii) on the first date on which the Investor is able to sell all of its PIPE Registrable Securities issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares received in exchange therefor) under Rule 144 within 90 days without the public information, volume or manner limitations of such rule.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the SEC prevents ListCo from including any or all of the shares proposed to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities by the applicable stockholders or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of PIPE Registrable Securities which is equal to the maximum number of PIPE Registrable Securities as is permitted by the SEC. In such event, the number of PIPE Registrable Securities to be registered for each selling stockholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling stockholders. In no event shall the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless in response to a comment or request from the staff of the SEC or another regulatory agency; provided, however, that if the SEC requests that the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, the Investor will have an opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement. The Investor agrees to disclose its ownership to ListCo upon request to assist it in making the determination described above. If the PIPE Registrable Securities are eligible to be sold under Rule 144 within 90 days without the public information, volume or manner limitations of such rule, or the Registration Statement covering the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities is effective (and the Investor and its broker provide ListCo and its transfer agent with customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to ListCo and its transfer agent in connection therewith), then at the Investor’s request, ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to remove the restrictive legend described in Section 7(b) from the PIPE Registrable Securities. For as long as the Registration Statement shall remain effective pursuant to this Section 8(a), ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to (1) qualify the PIPE Registrable Securities for listing on the Stock Exchange and (2) update or amend the Registration Statement as necessary to include the Shares sold hereby for resale. For as long as the Investor holds the PIPE Registrable Securities, ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to file all reports, and provide all customary and reasonable cooperation, necessary to enable the Investor to resell the PIPE Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or Rule 144 (when Rule 144 becomes available to the Investor), as applicable. ListCo may amend the Registration Statement so as to convert the Registration Statement to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 at such time after ListCo becomes eligible to use such Form S-3. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that ListCo may suspend the use of any such Registration Statement if it determines that in order for such Registration Statement not to contain a material misstatement or omission, an amendment thereto would be needed, if such filing would require the inclusion, in such Registration Statement, of financial statements that are unavailable to ListCo for reasons beyond ListCo’s control or use could materially affect a bona fide business or financing transaction of ListCo or would require premature disclosure of information that would adversely affect ListCo and that would at that time not otherwise be required in a current, quarterly, or annual report under the Exchange Act; provided, that (i) ListCo shall not so delay filing or so suspend the use of a registration statement for a period of more than ninety (90) consecutive days or more than a total of one hundred and eighty (180) calendar days, in each case in any three hundred and sixty (360) day period and (ii) ListCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make such Registration Statement available for the sale by the Investor of such securities as soon as practicable thereafter. ListCo’s obligations to include the PIPE Registrable Securities issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares issued in exchange therefor) for resale in the Registration Statement are contingent upon the Investor furnishing in writing to ListCo such information regarding the Investor, the securities of ListCo held by the Investor and the intended method of disposition of such PIPE Registrable Securities, which shall be limited to non-underwritten public offerings, as shall be reasonably requested by ListCo to effect the registration of such PIPE Registrable Securities, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as ListCo may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations.

b.          ListCo shall advise the Investor within two (2) business days (at ListCo’s expense): (i) when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose; (iv) of the receipt by ListCo of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the PIPE Registrable Securities included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and (v) subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading. Upon receipt of any written notice from ListCo (which notice shall not contain any material non-public information regarding ListCo) of the happening of any event contemplated in clauses (ii) through (v) above during the period that the Registration Statement is effective or if as a result of the occurrence of such event the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, the Investor agrees that (1) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the PIPE Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until the Investor receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which ListCo agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by ListCo that it may resume such offers and sales, and (2) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by ListCo except (A) for disclosure to the Investor’s employees, agents and professional advisers who need to know such information and are obligated to keep it confidential, (B) for disclosures to the extent required in order to comply with reporting obligations to its limited partners who have agreed to keep such information confidential and (C) as required by law or subpoena.  ListCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable.  Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated in clauses (ii) through (v) above, except for such times as ListCo is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, ListCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the PIPE Registrable Securities included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

c.          Indemnification.

(i)          ListCo agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, the Investor, its directors, and officers, investment managers or advisors, employees, employees of its investment managers or advisors and agents, and each person who controls the Investor (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and each affiliate of the Investor (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus included 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 furnished in writing to ListCo by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein.

(ii)          The Investor agrees, severally and not jointly with any other person that is a party to the Other Subscription Agreements, to indemnify and hold harmless ListCo, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls ListCo (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any 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 or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of the Investor be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Investor upon the sale of the PIPE Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(iii)          Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (1) 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 right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (2) 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. An indemnifying party who elects not to assume the defense of a claim 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 legal counsel to any indemnified party a conflict of interest exists between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which (1) 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), (2) 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, or (3) contains any statement of fault or culpability.

(iv)          The indemnification provided for under this Subscription 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, employee, agent, affiliate or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the PIPE Registrable Securities.

(v)          If the indemnification provided under this Section 8(c) from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and 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 relates to information supplied by or on behalf of, 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. 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 above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 8(c) from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In no event shall the liability of the Investor pursuant to this Section 8(c)(v) be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Investor upon the sale of the PIPE Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation, and such obligations of the Investor shall be several and not joint.

9.          Termination. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earliest to occur of (a) such date and time as the Transaction Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (c) ListCo’s notification to the Investor in writing that it has, with the written consent of the Company, abandoned its plans to move forward with the Transaction and/or terminated the Investor’s obligations with respect to the subscription without the delivery of the Shares having occurred, and (d) the delivery of a notice of termination of this Subscription Agreement by the Investor to ListCo and ARYA on the Termination Date (as defined in the Transaction Agreement), if the Closing has not occurred by the Termination Date (provided, that the right to terminate this Subscription Agreement pursuant to this clause (d) shall not be available to the Investor if the Investor’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations under this Subscription Agreement (or if an affiliate of the Investor is an Other Investor, and such Other Investor’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations under an Other Subscription Agreement), either individually or in the aggregate, shall have proximately caused the failure of the consummation of the Transaction on or before the Termination Date) (the termination events described in clauses (a)–(d) above, collectively, the “Termination Events”); provided that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful and material breach of any covenant, agreement, obligation, representation or warranty hereunder prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from any such willful and material breach. ListCo shall notify the Investor of the termination of the Transaction Agreement as promptly as practicable after the termination of the Transaction Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any Termination Event, this Subscription Agreement shall be void and of no further effect and any monies paid by the Investor to ListCo in connection herewith shall promptly (and in any event within one (1) business day) following the Termination Event be returned to the Investor.

10.       Trust Account Waiver. The Investor acknowledges that ARYA is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving ARYA and one or more businesses or assets. The Investor further acknowledges that, as described in ARYA’s final prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated February 25, 2021 (the “Final Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of ARYA’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of ARYA’s initial public offering and private placement of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of ARYA, its public shareholders and the underwriters of ARYA’s initial public offering. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to ARYA to pay its tax obligations, if any, the cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only for the purposes set forth in the Final Prospectus. For and in consideration of ARYA entering into this Subscription Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Investor, on behalf of itself and its representatives, hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind it has or may have in the future, in or to any monies held in the Trust Account (or distributions therefrom to ARYA’s public shareholders or to the underwriters of ARYA’s initial public offering in respect of their deferred underwriting commissions held in the Trust Account), and agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 10 shall be deemed to limit the Investor’s right, title, interest or claim to any monies held in the Trust Account by virtue of its record or beneficial ownership of publicly traded Class A Shares acquired in an open market transaction, pursuant to a validly exercised redemption right with respect to any such Class A Shares, in accordance with ARYA’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended in connection with the shareholder meetings of ARYA on February 28, 2023 and February 27, 2024 and as may be subsequently amended from time to time, and the Investment Management Trust Agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company and ARYA, dated March 2, 2021, except to the extent that the Investor has otherwise agreed in writing with ListCo, ARYA, the Company or any of their respective affiliates to not exercise such redemption right.

11.          Miscellaneous

a.          Neither this Subscription Agreement nor any rights that may accrue to the Investor hereunder (other than the PIPE Securities acquired hereunder and the rights set forth in Section 8 solely in connection with a transfer of such PIPE Securities (other than a transfer in connection with a sale pursuant to either an effective registration statement or under Rule 144), if any) may be transferred or assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after notifying ListCo, Investor may assign its rights and obligations under this Subscription Agreement to one or more of its affiliates (including other investment funds or accounts managed or advised by the investment manager who acts on behalf of Investor) or, with the Company’s prior written consent, to another person, provided that no such assignment shall relieve Investor of its obligations hereunder if any such assignee fails to perform such obligations.

b.       ListCo may request from the Investor such additional information as ListCo may deem necessary to register the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities and evaluate the eligibility of the Investor to acquire the PIPE Securities, and the Investor shall provide any such information as may be reasonably requested. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other covenants or agreements in this Subscription Agreement, the Investor acknowledges that ListCo and ARYA may file a copy of this Subscription Agreement, the Pre-Funded Warrant Agreement and the Warrant Agreement with the SEC as an exhibit to a periodic report or a registration statement of ListCo or ARYA.

c.         The Investor acknowledges that ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agents and others will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement, including Schedule A hereto. Prior to the Closing, the Investor agrees to promptly notify ListCo, ARYA, the Company and the Placement Agents in writing if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations or warranties set forth in Section 7 above are no longer accurate in any material respect (other than those acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties qualified by materiality, in which case the Investor shall notify ListCo, ARYA, the Company and the Placement Agents if they are no longer accurate in any respect). The Investor acknowledges and agrees that each purchase by the Investor of PIPE Securities from ListCo will constitute a reaffirmation of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties herein by the Investor as of the time of such purchase.

d.         The Investor agrees that, from the date hereof until the Closing or the earlier termination of this Subscription Agreement, none of the Investor or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or pursuant to any understanding with the Investor will engage in any hedging or other transactions or arrangements (including, without limitation, any short sale or the purchase or sale of, or entry into, any put or call option, or combination thereof, forward, swap or any other derivative transaction or similar instrument, including without limitation equity repurchase agreements and securities lending arrangements, however described or defined) designed or intended, or which could reasonably be expected to lead to or result in, a sale, loan, pledge or other disposition or transfer (whether by the Investor or any other person), in each case, solely to the extent it has the same economic effect as a “short sale” (as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act), of any economic consequences of ownership (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any consequences resulting solely from foreign exchange fluctuations), in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, physically or synthetically, of any PIPE Securities or any securities of ARYA prior to the Closing, whether any such transaction or arrangement (or instrument provided for thereunder) would be settled by delivery of securities of ARYA, in cash or otherwise, or to publicly disclose the intention to undertake any of the foregoing; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 11(d) shall not apply to long sales (including sales of securities held by the Investor, its controlled affiliates or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or any of its controlled affiliates prior to the date hereof and securities purchased by the Investor in the open market after the date hereof) other than those effectuated through derivative transactions and similar instruments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 11(d) (i) shall prohibit any entities under common management with the Investor that have no knowledge (constructive or otherwise) of this Subscription Agreement or of Investor’s participation in the transactions contemplated hereby from entering into any of the transactions set forth in the first sentence of this Section 11(d); and (ii) in the case of an Investor that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers or desks manage separate portions of such Investor’s assets and the portfolio managers have no knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Investor’s assets, this Section 11(d) shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the PIPE Securities covered by this Subscription Agreement.

e.       ListCo, ARYA and the Placement Agents are each entitled to rely upon this Subscription Agreement and each is irrevocably authorized to produce this Subscription Agreement or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby; provided, however, that the foregoing clause of this Section 11(e) shall not give the Placement Agents any rights other than those expressly set forth herein and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be entitled to rely on any of the representations and warranties of ListCo or ARYA set forth in this Subscription Agreement.

f.       All of the agreements, representations and warranties made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing.

g.         This Subscription Agreement may not be terminated other than pursuant to the terms of Section 9 above.  The provisions of this Subscription Agreement may not be modified, amended or waived except by an instrument in writing, signed by each of the parties hereto; provided, however, that no modification, amendment or waiver by ListCo of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall be effective without the prior written consent of ARYA (other than modifications, amendments or waivers that are solely ministerial in nature or otherwise immaterial and, in each case, do not affect any economic or any other material term of this Subscription Agreement). No failure or delay of either party hereto in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have hereunder.

h.          This Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the schedule hereto and each of the Pre-Funded Warrant Agreement and the Warrant Agreement attached hereto) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof.  Except as set forth in Section 3(b), Section 7, Section 9, Section 11(c), Section 11(e), Section 11(g), this Section 11(h) and the last sentence of Section 11(l) with respect to the persons specifically referenced therein, this Subscription Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto, and their respective successors and assigns, and the parties hereto acknowledge that such persons so referenced are third party beneficiaries of this Subscription Agreement with right of enforcement for the purposes of, and to the extent of, the rights granted to them, if any, pursuant to the applicable provisions.

i.          Except as otherwise provided herein, this Subscription Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives, and permitted assigns, and the agreements, representations, warranties, covenants and acknowledgments contained herein shall be deemed to be made by, and be binding upon, such heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.

j.          If any provision of this Subscription Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.

k.        This Subscription Agreement may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts (including, without limitation, by facsimile or electronic mail or in .pdf) and by different parties in separate counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document. All counterparts so executed and delivered shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same agreement.

l.          The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur if any of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Subscription Agreement, without posting a bond or undertaking and without proof of damages, to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Subscription Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Company shall be entitled to seek to specifically enforce the Investor’s obligations to fund the Subscription Amount, ListCo’s obligations under this Subscription Agreement and the provisions of the Subscription Agreement of which the Company is an express third party beneficiary, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

m.         Any notice or communication required or permitted hereunder to be given to the Investor shall be in writing and either delivered personally, emailed or sent by overnight mail via a reputable overnight carrier, or sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, to such address(es) or email address(es) set forth on the signature page hereto, and shall be deemed to be given and received (i) when so delivered personally, (ii) when sent, with no mail undeliverable or other rejection notice, if sent by email, or (iii) three (3) business days after the date of mailing to the address below or to such other address or addresses as the Investor may hereafter designate by notice given hereunder:

ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV

51 Astor Place, 10^th Floor

New York, New York 10002

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This Amended and Restated Subscription Agreement (this “Subscription Agreement”) is being entered into as of the date set forth on the signature page hereto and amends and restates the Subscription Agreement, dated as of February 13, 2024, by and between Aja Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation and prior to the Closing Date (as defined below), a wholly owned subsidiary of ARYA (“ListCo”), ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“ARYA”), and the undersigned subscriber (the “Investor”), in connection with the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of February 13, 2024 (as amended on June 25, 2024 and as may be further amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Transaction Agreement”), by and among ListCo, ARYA, Aja Merger Sub 1, a Cayman Islands exempted company and prior to the Closing Date, a wholly owned subsidiary of ListCo (“ARYA Merger Sub”), Aja Merger Sub 2, a Delaware corporation and prior to the Closing Date, a wholly owned subsidiary of ListCo (“Company Merger Sub”) and Adagio Medical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to which, among other things, ARYA Merger Sub will merge with and into ARYA and Company Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with ARYA and the Company surviving the mergers and ARYA and the Company becoming wholly owned subsidiaries of ListCo, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Transaction Agreement (the “Transaction”).

In connection with the Transaction, ListCo is seeking commitments from interested investors to purchase in a private placement, contingent upon, and substantially concurrently with the closing of the Transaction, (i) shares (the “Shares”) of ListCo’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) warrants, each representing the right to purchase shares of Common Stock and to be represented by a warrant with the terms and conditions in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Warrant Agreement”) and which will be executed on the Closing Date (as defined below) (such warrants, the “Warrants” and together with the Shares, the “PIPE Securities”). The shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants are herein after referred to as the “Warrant Shares.” On February 13, 2024 and June 24, 2024, the parties to this Subscription Agreement (other than the Investor) entered into subscription agreements (as amended and restated on or about the date hereof, to the extent applicable, the “Other Subscription Agreements,” and together with this Subscription Agreement, the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain other investors (the “Other Investors,” and together with the Investor, the “Investors”). The aggregate purchase price to be paid by the Investor for the PIPE Securities (as set forth on the signature page hereto) is referred to herein as the “Subscription Amount” and is set forth on the signature page hereto.

In connection therewith, and in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, each of the Investor, ARYA and ListCo acknowledges and agrees as follows:

1.          Subscription. The Investor hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from ListCo the number of PIPE Securities set forth on the signature page of this Subscription Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that ListCo reserves the right to accept or reject the Investor’s subscription for the PIPE Securities for any reason or for no reason, in whole or in part, at any time prior to its acceptance, and the same shall be deemed to be accepted by ListCo only when this Subscription Agreement is signed by a duly authorized person by or on behalf of ListCo; ListCo may do so in counterpart form. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the PIPE Securities that will be purchased by the Investor and issued by ListCo on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement, or in the case of the Warrant Shares, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Warrant Agreement, shall be securities of a Delaware corporation (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, securities of ARYA, a Cayman Islands exempted company).

2.          Closing. The closing of the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) is contingent upon the substantially concurrent consummation of the Transaction. The Closing shall occur contingent upon, and substantially concurrent with the effectiveness of the Transaction (the date the Closing so occurs, the “Closing Date”). Upon delivery of written notice from (or on behalf of) ListCo to the Investor (the “Closing Notice”), that ListCo reasonably expects all conditions to the closing of the Transaction under the Transaction Agreement to be satisfied or waived on a date that is not less than five (5) business days from the date on which the Closing Notice is delivered to the Investor, the Investor shall deliver to ListCo, three (3) business days prior to the anticipated closing date specified in the Closing Notice, any other information that is reasonably requested in the Closing Notice in order for the PIPE Securities to be issued to the Investor, including, without limitation, the legal name of the person in whose name such securities are to be issued and a duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8, as applicable. On the Closing Date, ListCo shall issue a number of PIPE Securities to the Investor set forth on the signature page to this Subscription Agreement, including by delivering a fully executed Warrant Agreement to the Investor, and subsequently cause the Shares to be registered in book entry form, free and clear of all liens (other than those arising under applicable securities laws), in the name of the Investor on ListCo’s share register. In lieu of paying the Subscription Amount, Investor hereby agrees that it shall not exercise its right to redeem the Investor ARYA Shares (as defined below) in connection with the consummation of the Transaction in accordance with Section 15 hereof. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banking institutions in New York, New York are authorized or required to close for business.

3.          Closing Conditions.

a.          The obligation of the parties hereto to consummate the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement is subject to the following conditions:

(i)          no applicable governmental authority shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any judgment, order, law, rule or regulation (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) which is then in effect and has the effect of making the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby illegal or otherwise enjoining, restraining or prohibiting consummation of (x) the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or (y) the Transaction; and

(ii)          (A) all conditions precedent to the closing of the Transaction set forth in Article 6 of the Transaction Agreement shall have been satisfied (which shall be deemed satisfied if mutually determined by the applicable parties to the Transaction Agreement and other than those conditions under the Transaction Agreement that, by their nature are to be satisfied in connection with the closing of the Transaction, including to the extent that any such condition is dependent upon the consummation of the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement or the Other Subscription Agreements) or waived by the applicable parties to the Transaction Agreement as provided therein and (B) the closing of the Transaction shall be scheduled to occur concurrently with or on the same date as the Closing.

b.         The obligation of ListCo to consummate the sale and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement shall be subject to the conditions (which may be waived in writing (email being sufficient) by ListCo with the prior written consent of ARYA (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed)) that (i) all representations and warranties of the Investor contained in this Subscription Agreement are true and correct in all material respects at and as of the Closing Date (except for (i) those representations and warranties qualified by materiality, which shall be true and correct in all respects as of the Closing Date and (ii) those representations and warranties that speak as of a specified earlier date, which shall be so true and correct in all material respects (or, if qualified by materiality, in all respects) as of such specified earlier date) and (ii) all obligations, covenants and agreements of the Investor required to be performed by it at or prior to the Closing shall have been performed in all material respects.

c.          The obligation of the Investor to consummate the purchase of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement shall be subject to the conditions (which may be waived in writing (email being sufficient) by the Investor) that (i) all representations and warranties of ListCo and ARYA contained in this Subscription Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects at and as of the Closing Date (other than (A) representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or ARYA Material Adverse Effect or ListCo Material Adverse Effect (each as defined below), which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects and (B) those representations and warranties that speak as of a specified earlier date, which shall be so true and correct in all material respects (or, if qualified by materiality, in all respects) as of such specified earlier date); (ii) ListCo and ARYA shall have performed, satisfied and complied in all material respects with all obligations, covenants, agreements and conditions required by the Subscription Agreement to be performed, satisfied or complied with by it at or prior to the Closing; and (iii) the Shares acquired hereunder shall have been approved for listing by the Stock Exchange (as defined below).

4.          Further Assurances. At or prior to the Closing, the parties hereto shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional documents and take such additional actions as the parties reasonably may deem to be practical and necessary in order to consummate the subscription as contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

5.          ListCo Representations and Warranties. ListCo represents and warrants to the Investor that:

a.          ListCo is duly incorporated and validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. ListCo has all power (corporate or otherwise) and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as presently conducted and to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement.

b.         As of the Closing Date, the Shares, the Warrants and any Warrant Shares, will be duly authorized and, when issued and delivered to the Investor against full payment therefor in accordance with the terms of this Subscription Agreement or the Warrant Agreement, as applicable, such Shares or Warrant Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will not have been issued in violation of or subject to any preemptive or similar rights created under ListCo’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws (each, as amended on the Closing Date) or under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or under any agreement or instrument to which ListCo is a party. As of the Closing Date, the Warrant Shares will have been duly reserved for issuance in an amount of duly authorized shares of Common Stock that is equal to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the initial exercise of the Warrants. ListCo shall keep such number of shares of Common Stock as necessary to satisfy the exercise of the Warrants at all times reserved for issuance until the earlier of the exercise of the Warrants in full or the expiration of the Warrants in accordance with their respective terms. The Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of any Warrant will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. On the Closing Date, the Warrant Agreement will be duly authorized, and when executed and delivered by ListCo, will constitute the valid and binding agreement of ListCo and will be enforceable against ListCo in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

c.         This Subscription Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered by ListCo and, assuming that this Subscription Agreement constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the Investor and ARYA, this Subscription Agreement is enforceable against ListCo in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

d.         The sale and issuance of the PIPE Securities and the compliance by ListCo with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the Warrant Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, including the issuance of the Warrant Shares, will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of ListCo or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is subject that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the validity of the PIPE Securities, including the Warrant Shares, or legal authority of ListCo to comply in all material respects with the terms of this Subscription Agreement, the Warrant Agreement or the Transaction (a “ListCo Material Adverse Effect”); (ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of ListCo; or (iii) result in any violation of any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over ListCo or any of its properties that would reasonably be expected to have a ListCo Material Adverse Effect.

e.          As of the date of this Subscription Agreement, the authorized share capital of ListCo (excluding the PIPE Securities) consists of one thousand (1,000) shares of Common Stock and the issued share capital of ListCo consists of one (1) share of Common Stock, which (A) has been duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, (B) has been issued in compliance with applicable law and (C) has not been issued in breach or violation of any preemptive rights or contract. Immediately following the Closing, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock shall (A) be, or have been duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, (B) have been issued in compliance with applicable law and (C) not have been issued in breach or violation of any preemptive rights or contract.

Except as set forth above and pursuant to the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement and the other agreements and arrangements referred to therein, as of the date hereof, there are no outstanding options, warrants or other rights to subscribe for, purchase or acquire from ListCo any equity interests in ListCo, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such equity interests. As of the date hereof, ListCo has no subsidiaries, other than ARYA Merger Sub and Company Merger Sub, and does not own, directly or indirectly, interests or investments (whether equity or debt) in any person, whether incorporated or unincorporated.

f.          Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Investor, ListCo is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by ListCo of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance by ListCo of the PIPE Securities or any Warrant Shares), other than (i) filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), (ii) filings required by applicable state securities laws, (iii) filings required by Nasdaq, or such other applicable stock exchange on which ListCo’s common equity will be listed (the “Stock Exchange”), (iv) those required to consummate the Transaction as provided under the Transaction Agreement, and (v) those of which the failure to obtain would not be reasonably likely to have a ListCo Material Adverse Effect.

g.          As of the date hereof, there is no suit, action, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of ListCo, threatened against ListCo by the Stock Exchange or the SEC, respectively, to prohibit the listing of the Shares and Warrant Shares, or the registration of, when issued in connection with the closing of the Transaction, the Shares and Warrant Shares under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

h.          Assuming the accuracy of the Investor’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 7, no registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) is required for the offer and sale of the PIPE Securities by ListCo to the Investor hereunder. The PIPE Securities (i) were not offered to the Investor by any form of general solicitation or general advertising and (ii) are not being offered to the Investor in a manner involving a public offering under, or in a distribution in violation of, the Securities Act, or any state securities laws.

i.          Except for such matters as have not had and would not be reasonably likely to have a ListCo Material Adverse Effect, as of the date hereof, there is no (i) action, suit, claim or other proceeding, in each case by or before any governmental authority pending, or, to the knowledge of ListCo, threatened against ListCo or (ii) judgment, decree, injunction, ruling or order of any governmental entity or arbitrator outstanding against ListCo.

j.          ListCo has not engaged any broker, finder, commission agent, placement agent or arranger in connection with the sale of the PIPE Securities, and ListCo is not under any obligation to pay any broker’s fee or commission in connection with the sale of the PIPE Securities other than to the Placement Agents at Closing.

k.          ListCo acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Shares and Warrant Shares may be pledged by Investor in connection with a bona fide margin agreement, provided such pledge shall be (i) pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or (ii) pursuant to, and in accordance with, a registration statement that is effective under the Securities Act at the time of such pledge, and the Investor effecting a pledge of the Shares and Warrant Shares shall not be required to provide ListCo with any notice thereof; provided, however, that neither ListCo, ARYA, the Company or their respective counsels shall be required to take any action (or refrain from taking any action) in connection with any such pledge, other than providing any such lender of such margin agreement with an acknowledgment that the Shares and Warrant Shares are not subject to any contractual prohibition on pledging or lock up, the form of such acknowledgment to be subject to review and comment by ListCo in all respects.

l.          Other than the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement and any other agreement contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, as of the date hereof, ListCo has not entered into any side letter or similar agreement with any Other Investor or any other investor in connection with such Other Investor’s or investor’s direct or indirect investment in ListCo (other than any side letter or similar agreement relating to the transfer to any investor of securities to be issued to the direct or indirect securityholders of the Company pursuant to the Transaction Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that ListCo may enter into additional subscription agreements after the date hereof; provided, however, that if any such agreement is with respect to equity financing, then any such agreement shall be on substantially the same terms and at an effective offering price no less than as provided for pursuant to this Subscription Agreement. The Other Subscription Agreements have not been amended or modified in any material respect following the date of this Subscription Agreement.

6.          ARYA Representations and Warranties. ARYA represents and warrants to the Investor that:

a.          ARYA has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as an exempted company under the laws of the Cayman Islands, in good standing under the laws of the Cayman Islands, with power (corporate or otherwise) and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as presently conducted and to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement.

b.          This Subscription Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered by ARYA and, assuming that this Subscription Agreement constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the Investor and ListCo, this Subscription Agreement is enforceable against ARYA in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

c.          As of the date hereof, the authorized share capital of ARYA consists of (i) 479,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Shares”), (ii) 20,000,000 Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Shares” and together with the Class A Shares, the “ARYA Ordinary Shares”), and (iii) 1,000,000 preference shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preference Shares”). As of the date of this Subscription Agreement, (i) no Preference Shares are issued and outstanding, (ii) 3,799,016 Class A Shares are issued and outstanding, and (iii) 3,737,500 Class B Shares are issued and outstanding. All issued and outstanding Class A Shares and Class B Shares are fully paid and nonassessable, as such term or similar concept may be applicable to a Cayman Islands exempted company, have been duly authorized and validly issued and issued in compliance with applicable law and have not been issued in breach or violation of any preemptive rights or contract. There are no shareholder agreements, voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to which ARYA is a party or by which it is bound relating to the voting of any securities of ARYA, other than (1) as set forth in the SEC Reports and (2) as contemplated by the Transaction Agreement. Except as set forth above and pursuant to the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement and the other agreements and arrangements referred to therein, as of the date hereof, there are no outstanding options, warrants or other rights to subscribe for, purchase or acquire from ARYA any Class A Shares, Class B Shares or other equity interests in ARYA, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such equity interests. As of the date hereof, ARYA has no subsidiaries, other than ListCo, ARYA Merger Sub and Company Merger Sub, and does not own, directly or indirectly, interests or investments (whether equity or debt) in any person, whether incorporated or unincorporated.

d.          A copy of each form, report, statement, schedule, proxy and other document filed by ARYA with the SEC on or prior to the Closing Date (the “SEC Reports”) is available to the Investor (including via the SEC’s EDGAR system). ARYA has timely filed the SEC Reports with the SEC through the date hereof (after giving effect to any applicable grace period). As of their respective filing dates all SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Reports. None of the SEC Reports filed under the Exchange Act (except to the extent that information contained in any SEC Report has been superseded by a later timely filed SEC Report) contained, when filed or, if amended, as of the date of such amendment with respect to those disclosures that are amended, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The financial statements of ARYA included in the SEC Reports, as applicable, comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing, or, if amended, as of the date of such amendment, and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of ARYA as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented, subject to (i) in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, year-end audit adjustments, and such consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (“GAAP”) (except as may be disclosed therein or in the notes thereto, and except that the unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP), and (ii) changes to historical accounting policies of ARYA in connection with any order, directive, guideline, comment or recommendation from the SEC that is applicable to ARYA. There are no outstanding or unresolved comments in comment letters from the staff of the SEC with respect to any of the SEC Reports. For the avoidance of doubt, any restatement of the financial statements of ARYA and any amendments to previously filed SEC Reports or delays in filing SEC Reports, in connection with any guidance from the SEC following the date of this Subscription Agreement, shall not be deemed to constitute a breach of this Section 6(d). Additionally, for avoidance of doubt, any amendment or modification of any SEC Report (or any agreement filed as an exhibit to any SEC Report) from its initial filing date in a subsequent filing shall not be deemed to constitute a breach of this Section 6(d).

e.          The sale and issuance of the PIPE Securities and the compliance by ARYA with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, including the issuance of the Warrant Shares, will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of ARYA or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which ARYA or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which ARYA or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of ARYA or any of its subsidiaries is subject that would reasonably be expected to materially affect or legal authority of ARYA to comply in all material respects with the terms of this Subscription Agreement or the Transaction (an “ARYA Material Adverse Effect”); (ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of ARYA; or (iii) result in any violation of any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over ARYA or any of its properties that would reasonably be expected to have an ARYA Material Adverse Effect.

f.          Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Investor, ARYA is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by ARYA of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance by ListCo of the PIPE Securities or any Warrant Shares), other than (i) filings with the SEC, (ii) filings required by applicable state securities laws, (iii) filings required by the Stock Exchange, (iv) those required to consummate the Transaction as provided under the Transaction Agreement, and (v) those of which the failure to obtain would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, an ARYA Material Adverse Effect.

Except for such matters as have not had and would not be reasonably likely to have an ARYA Material Adverse Effect, as of the date hereof, there is no (i) action, suit, claim or other proceeding, in each case by or before any governmental authority pending, or, to the knowledge of ARYA, threatened against ARYA or (ii) judgment, decree, injunction, ruling or order of any governmental entity or arbitrator outstanding against ARYA.

The Investor further acknowledges that there have not been, and the Investor hereby agrees that it is not relying on, representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made to the Investor by or on behalf of ListCo, ARYA, the Company, Jefferies LLC, Chardan Capital Markets, LLC (Jefferies LLC and Chardan Capital Markets, LLC and any of their respective affiliates, the “Placement Agents”), any of their respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing or any other person or entity, expressly or by implication, other than those representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of ListCo expressly set forth in Section 5 and ARYA expressly set forth in Section 6 of this Subscription Agreement.

d.          The Investor’s acquisition and holding of the PIPE Securities will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any applicable similar law.

e.          The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Investor has received such information as the Investor deems necessary in order to make an investment decision with respect to the PIPE Securities, including, without limitation, with respect to ARYA, the Transaction and the business of the Company and its subsidiaries. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Investor acknowledges that it has reviewed the SEC Reports. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Investor and the Investor’s professional advisor(s), if any, have had the full opportunity to ask such questions, receive such answers and obtain such information as the Investor and the Investor’s professional advisor(s), if any, deemed necessary to make an investment decision with respect to the PIPE Securities.

f.          The Investor became aware of this offering of the PIPE Securities solely by means of direct contact between the Investor, ARYA, ListCo or the Company or a representative of ARYA, ListCo or the Company, and the PIPE Securities were offered to the Investor solely by direct contact between the Investor and ARYA ListCo or the Company or a representative of ListCo, ARYA or the Company.  The Investor did not become aware of this offering of the PIPE Securities, nor were the PIPE Securities offered to the Investor, by any other means and none of ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agents or their respective representatives or any person acting on behalf of any of them acted as investment advisor, broker or dealer to the Investor. The Investor acknowledges that the PIPE Securities (i) were not offered by any form of general solicitation or general advertising and (ii) are not being offered in a manner involving a public offering under, or in a distribution in violation of, the Securities Act, or any state securities laws. The Investor acknowledges that it is not relying upon, and has not relied upon, any statement, representation or warranty made by any person, firm or corporation (including, without limitation, ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agents, any of their respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing), other than the representations and warranties of ListCo and ARYA contained in Section 5 and Section 6 of this Subscription Agreement, in making its investment or decision to invest in ListCo.

g.          The Investor acknowledges that it is aware that there are substantial risks incident to the purchase and ownership of the PIPE Securities, including, without limitation, those set forth in the SEC Reports. The Investor has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the PIPE Securities, and the Investor has had an opportunity to seek, and has sought such accounting, legal, business and tax advice as the Investor has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision and the Investor has made its own assessment and satisfied itself concerning relevant tax and other economic considerations relative to its purchase of the PIPE Securities. The Investor (i) is an institutional account as defined in FINRA Rule 4512(c), (ii) is a sophisticated investor, experienced in investing in private equity transactions and capable of evaluating investment risks independently, both in general and with regard to all transactions and investment strategies involving a security or securities, and (iii) has exercised independent judgment in evaluating its participation in the purchase of the PIPE Securities.

h.          Alone, or together with any professional advisor(s), the Investor has adequately analyzed and fully considered the risks of an investment in the PIPE Securities and determined that the PIPE Securities are a suitable investment for the Investor and that the Investor is able at this time and in the foreseeable future to bear the economic risk of a total loss of the Investor’s investment in ListCo. The Investor acknowledges specifically that a possibility of total loss exists.

i.          In making its decision to purchase the PIPE Securities, the Investor has relied solely upon independent investigation made by the Investor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Investor has not relied on any statements or other information provided by or on behalf of the Placement Agents or any of their respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing concerning ListCo, the Company, the Transaction, the Transaction Agreement, this Subscription Agreement, the Warrant Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the PIPE Securities or the offer and sale of the PIPE Securities.

j.          The Investor acknowledges and agrees that no federal or state agency has passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the PIPE Securities or made any findings or determination as to the fairness of this investment.

k.          The Investor, if not an individual, has been duly formed or incorporated and is validly existing and is in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation or incorporation, with power and authority to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement.

l.          The execution, delivery and performance by the Investor of this Subscription Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein are within the powers of the Investor, have been duly authorized and will not constitute or result in a breach or default under or conflict with any order, ruling or regulation of any court or other tribunal or of any governmental commission or agency, or any agreement or other undertaking, to which the Investor is a party or by which the Investor is bound, and, if the Investor is not an individual, will not conflict with or violate any provisions of the Investor’s organizational documents, including, without limitation, its incorporation or formation papers, bylaws, indenture of trust or partnership or operating agreement, as may be applicable.

m.        The Investor is not (i) a person or entity named on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons, the Executive Order 13599 List, the Foreign Sanctions Evaders List, or the Sectoral Sanctions Identification List, each of which is administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) or in any Executive Order issued by the President of the United States and administered by OFAC (“OFAC List”), or a person or entity prohibited by any OFAC sanctions program, (ii) owned, directly or indirectly, or controlled by, or acting on behalf of, one or more persons that are named on the OFAC Lists; (iii) organized, incorporated, established, located, resident or born in, or a citizen, national or the government, including any political subdivision, agency or instrumentality thereof, of Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russia, Syria, the Crimea, Donetsk or Luhansk regions of Ukraine or any other country or territory embargoed or subject to substantial trade restrictions by the United States, (iv)  a Designated National as defined in the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R.

Section 5311 et seq.) (the “BSA”), as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 (the “PATRIOT Act”), and its implementing regulations (collectively, the “BSA/PATRIOT Act”), the Investor maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to comply with applicable obligations under the BSA/PATRIOT Act.

o.          The Investor acknowledges that neither the Placement Agents, nor any of their respective affiliates nor any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing have made any independent investigation with respect to ListCo, ARYA, the Company or its subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, or the PIPE Securities or the accuracy, completeness or adequacy of any information supplied to the Investor by ListCo, ARYA or the Company, as applicable.

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 PIPE Securities covered by this Subscription Agreement.

r.          The Investor is not currently (and at all times through Closing will refrain from being or becoming) a member of a “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act or any successor provision) acting for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of equity securities of ARYA (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act), other than a group consisting solely of the Investor and its affiliates.

s.          The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Placement Agents (a) are acting solely in their capacity as placement agents with respect to the issuance and sale of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements, are not acting as underwriters, initial purchasers, dealers, financial advisors, fiduciaries or in any other capacities and are not and shall not be construed as fiduciaries to the Investor, ListCo, ARYA or any other person or entity in connection with this offering of the PIPE Securities or the Transaction; (b) have not made and will not make any representation or warranty, whether express or implied, of any kind or character to the Investor and have not provided any advice or recommendation in connection with this offering of the PIPE Securities or the Transaction; (c) will have no responsibility with respect to (i) any representations, warranties or agreements made by any person or entity under or in connection with the offering of the PIPE Securities, the Transaction or any of the documents furnished pursuant thereto or in connection therewith or the execution, legality, validity or enforceability (with respect to any person) of any thereof, or (ii) the business, affairs, financial condition, operations, properties or prospects of, or any other matter concerning ListCo, this offering of PIPE Securities, or the Transaction.

u.          The Investor acknowledges and agrees that none of the Placement Agents shall have any liability or obligation (including without limitation, for or with respect to any losses, claims, damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, costs, expenses or disbursements incurred by the Investor, ListCo, ARYA or any other person or entity), whether in contract, tort or otherwise, to the Investor, or to any person claiming through the Investor, in respect of this offering of the PIPE Securities or the Transaction

8.          Registration Rights.

a.          In the event that the Shares and the Warrant Shares (such securities, the “PIPE Registrable Securities”) are not registered in connection with the consummation of the Transaction, ListCo agrees that, within forty-five (45) calendar days after the consummation of the Transaction (the “Filing Date”), it will file with the SEC (at its sole cost and expense) a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) registering the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities, and it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) ninety (90) calendar days after the filing thereof (or one hundred-twenty (120) calendar days after the filing thereof if the SEC notifies ListCo that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the Filing Date and (ii) ten (10) business days after ListCo 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. ListCo agrees to cause such Registration Statement, or another shelf registration statement that includes the PIPE Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, to remain effective until the earliest of (i) the date that is five years and six months following the Closing, (ii) the date on which the Investor ceases to hold any PIPE Registrable Securities or any Warrants issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, or (iii) on the first date on which the Investor is able to sell all of its PIPE Registrable Securities issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares received in exchange therefor) under Rule 144 within 90 days without the public information, volume or manner limitations of such rule.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the SEC prevents ListCo from including any or all of the shares proposed to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities by the applicable stockholders or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of PIPE Registrable Securities which is equal to the maximum number of PIPE Registrable Securities as is permitted by the SEC. In such event, the number of PIPE Registrable Securities to be registered for each selling stockholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling stockholders. In no event shall the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless in response to a comment or request from the staff of the SEC or another regulatory agency; provided, however, that if the SEC requests that the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, the Investor will have an opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement. The Investor agrees to disclose its ownership to ListCo upon request to assist it in making the determination described above. If the PIPE Registrable Securities are eligible to be sold under Rule 144 within 90 days without the public information, volume or manner limitations of such rule, or the Registration Statement covering the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities is effective (and the Investor and its broker provide ListCo and its transfer agent with customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to ListCo and its transfer agent in connection therewith), then at the Investor’s request, ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to remove the restrictive legend described in Section 7(b) from the PIPE Registrable Securities. For as long as the Registration Statement shall remain effective pursuant to this Section 8(a), ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to (1) qualify the PIPE Registrable Securities for listing on the Stock Exchange and (2) update or amend the Registration Statement as necessary to include the Shares sold hereby for resale. For as long as the Investor holds the PIPE Registrable Securities, ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to file all reports, and provide all customary and reasonable cooperation, necessary to enable the Investor to resell the PIPE Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or Rule 144 (when Rule 144 becomes available to the Investor), as applicable. ListCo may amend the Registration Statement so as to convert the Registration Statement to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 at such time after ListCo becomes eligible to use such Form S-3. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that ListCo may suspend the use of any such Registration Statement if it determines that in order for such Registration Statement not to contain a material misstatement or omission, an amendment thereto would be needed, if such filing would require the inclusion, in such Registration Statement, of financial statements that are unavailable to ListCo for reasons beyond ListCo’s control or use could materially affect a bona fide business or financing transaction of ListCo or would require premature disclosure of information that would adversely affect ListCo and that would at that time not otherwise be required in a current, quarterly, or annual report under the Exchange Act; provided, that (i) ListCo shall not so delay filing or so suspend the use of a registration statement for a period of more than ninety (90) consecutive days or more than a total of one hundred and eighty (180) calendar days, in each case in any three hundred and sixty (360) day period and (ii) ListCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make such Registration Statement available for the sale by the Investor of such securities as soon as practicable thereafter. ListCo’s obligations to include the PIPE Registrable Securities issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares issued in exchange therefor) for resale in the Registration Statement are contingent upon the Investor furnishing in writing to ListCo such information regarding the Investor, the securities of ListCo held by the Investor and the intended method of disposition of such PIPE Registrable Securities, which shall be limited to non-underwritten public offerings, as shall be reasonably requested by ListCo to effect the registration of such PIPE Registrable Securities, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as ListCo may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations.

b.          ListCo shall advise the Investor within two (2) business days (at ListCo’s expense): (i) when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose; (iv) of the receipt by ListCo of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the PIPE Registrable Securities included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and (v) subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading. Upon receipt of any written notice from ListCo (which notice shall not contain any material non-public information regarding ListCo) of the happening of any event contemplated in clauses (ii) through (v) above during the period that the Registration Statement is effective or if as a result of the occurrence of such event the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, the Investor agrees that (1) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the PIPE Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until the Investor receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which ListCo agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by ListCo that it may resume such offers and sales, and (2) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by ListCo except (A) for disclosure to the Investor’s employees, agents and professional advisers who need to know such information and are obligated to keep it confidential, (B) for disclosures to the extent required in order to comply with reporting obligations to its limited partners who have agreed to keep such information confidential and (C) as required by law or subpoena.  ListCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable.  Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated in clauses (ii) through (v) above, except for such times as ListCo is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, ListCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the PIPE Registrable Securities included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

c.          Indemnification.

(i)         ListCo agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, the Investor, its directors, and officers, investment managers or advisors, employees, employees of its investment managers or advisors and agents, and each person who controls the Investor (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and each affiliate of the Investor (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus included 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 furnished in writing to ListCo by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein.

(ii)        The Investor agrees, severally and not jointly with any other person that is a party to the Other Subscription Agreements, to indemnify and hold harmless ListCo, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls ListCo (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any 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 or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of the Investor be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Investor upon the sale of the PIPE Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(iii)         Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (1) 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 right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (2) 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. An indemnifying party who elects not to assume the defense of a claim 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 legal counsel to any indemnified party a conflict of interest exists between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which (1) 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), (2) 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, or (3) contains any statement of fault or culpability.

(iv)        The indemnification provided for under this Subscription 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, employee, agent, affiliate or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the PIPE Registrable Securities.

(v)          If the indemnification provided under this Section 8(c) from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and 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 relates to information supplied by or on behalf of, 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.

9.         Termination. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earliest to occur of (a) such date and time as the Transaction Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (c) ListCo’s notification to the Investor in writing that it has, with the written consent of the Company, abandoned its plans to move forward with the Transaction and/or terminated the Investor’s obligations with respect to the subscription without the delivery of the Shares having occurred, and (d) the delivery of a notice of termination of this Subscription Agreement by the Investor to ListCo and ARYA on the Termination Date (as defined in the Transaction Agreement), if the Closing has not occurred by the Termination Date (provided, that the right to terminate this Subscription Agreement pursuant to this clause (d) shall not be available to the Investor if the Investor’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations under this Subscription Agreement (or if an affiliate of the Investor is an Other Investor, and such Other Investor’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations under an Other Subscription Agreement), either individually or in the aggregate, shall have proximately caused the failure of the consummation of the Transaction on or before the Termination Date) (the termination events described in clauses (a)–(d) above, collectively, the “Termination Events”); provided that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful and material breach of any covenant, agreement, obligation, representation or warranty hereunder prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from any such willful and material breach. ListCo shall notify the Investor of the termination of the Transaction Agreement as promptly as practicable after the termination of the Transaction Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any Termination Event, this Subscription Agreement shall be void and of no further effect and any monies paid by the Investor to ListCo in connection herewith shall promptly (and in any event within one (1) business day) following the Termination Event be returned to the Investor.

10.          Trust Account Waiver. The Investor acknowledges that ARYA is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving ARYA and one or more businesses or assets. The Investor further acknowledges that, as described in ARYA’s final prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated February 25, 2021 (the “Final Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of ARYA’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of ARYA’s initial public offering and private placement of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of ARYA, its public shareholders and the underwriters of ARYA’s initial public offering. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to ARYA to pay its tax obligations, if any, the cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only for the purposes set forth in the Final Prospectus. For and in consideration of ARYA entering into this Subscription Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Investor, on behalf of itself and its representatives, hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind it has or may have in the future, in or to any monies held in the Trust Account (or distributions therefrom to ARYA’s public shareholders or to the underwriters of ARYA’s initial public offering in respect of their deferred underwriting commissions held in the Trust Account), and agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 10 shall be deemed to limit the Investor’s right, title, interest or claim to any monies held in the Trust Account by virtue of its record or beneficial ownership of publicly traded Class A Shares acquired in an open market transaction, pursuant to a validly exercised redemption right with respect to any such Class A Shares, in accordance with ARYA’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended in connection with the shareholder meetings of ARYA on February 28, 2023 and February 27, 2024 and as may be subsequently amended from time to time, and the Investment Management Trust Agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company and ARYA, dated March 2, 2021, except to the extent that the Investor has otherwise agreed in writing with ListCo, ARYA, the Company or any of their respective affiliates to not exercise such redemption right.

11.          Miscellaneous.

a.          Neither this Subscription Agreement nor any rights that may accrue to the Investor hereunder (other than the PIPE Securities acquired hereunder and the rights set forth in Section 8 solely in connection with a transfer of such PIPE Securities (other than a transfer in connection with a sale pursuant to either an effective registration statement or under Rule 144), if any) may be transferred or assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after notifying ListCo, Investor may assign its rights and obligations under this Subscription Agreement to one or more of its affiliates (including other investment funds or accounts managed or advised by the investment manager who acts on behalf of Investor) or, with the Company’s prior written consent, to another person, provided that no such assignment shall relieve Investor of its obligations hereunder if any such assignee fails to perform such obligations.

b.         ListCo may request from the Investor such additional information as ListCo may deem necessary to register the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities and evaluate the eligibility of the Investor to acquire the PIPE Securities, and the Investor shall provide any such information as may be reasonably requested. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other covenants or agreements in this Subscription Agreement, the Investor acknowledges that ListCo and ARYA may file a copy of this Subscription Agreement and Warrant Agreement with the SEC as an exhibit to a periodic report or a registration statement of ListCo or ARYA.

c.      The Investor acknowledges that ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agents and others will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement, including Schedule A hereto. Prior to the Closing, the Investor agrees to promptly notify ListCo, ARYA, the Company and the Placement Agents in writing if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations or warranties set forth in Section 7 above are no longer accurate in any material respect (other than those acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties qualified by materiality, in which case the Investor shall notify ListCo, ARYA, the Company and the Placement Agents if they are no longer accurate in any respect). The Investor acknowledges and agrees that each purchase by the Investor of PIPE Securities from ListCo will constitute a reaffirmation of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties herein by the Investor as of the time of such purchase.

d.        The Investor agrees that, from the date hereof until the Closing or the earlier termination of this Subscription Agreement, none of the Investor or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or pursuant to any understanding with the Investor will engage in any hedging or other transactions or arrangements (including, without limitation, any short sale or the purchase or sale of, or entry into, any put or call option, or combination thereof, forward, swap or any other derivative transaction or similar instrument, including without limitation equity repurchase agreements and securities lending arrangements, however described or defined) designed or intended, or which could reasonably be expected to lead to or result in, a sale, loan, pledge or other disposition or transfer (whether by the Investor or any other person), in each case, solely to the extent it has the same economic effect as a “short sale” (as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act), of any economic consequences of ownership (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any consequences resulting solely from foreign exchange fluctuations), in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, physically or synthetically, of any PIPE Securities or any securities of ARYA prior to the Closing, whether any such transaction or arrangement (or instrument provided for thereunder) would be settled by delivery of securities of ARYA, in cash or otherwise, or to publicly disclose the intention to undertake any of the foregoing; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 11(d) shall not apply to long sales (including sales of securities held by the Investor, its controlled affiliates or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or any of its controlled affiliates prior to the date hereof and securities purchased by the Investor in the open market after the date hereof) other than those effectuated through derivative transactions and similar instruments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 11(d) (i) shall prohibit any entities under common management with the Investor that have no knowledge (constructive or otherwise) of this Subscription Agreement or of Investor’s participation in the transactions contemplated hereby from entering into any of the transactions set forth in the first sentence of this Section 11(d); and (ii) in the case of an Investor that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers or desks manage separate portions of such Investor’s assets and the portfolio managers have no knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Investor’s assets, this Section 11(d) shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the PIPE Securities covered by this Subscription Agreement.

e.          ListCo, ARYA and the Placement Agents are each entitled to rely upon this Subscription Agreement and each is irrevocably authorized to produce this Subscription Agreement or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby; provided, however, that the foregoing clause of this Section 11(e) shall not give the Placement Agents any rights other than those expressly set forth herein and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be entitled to rely on any of the representations and warranties of ListCo or ARYA set forth in this Subscription Agreement.

f.          All of the agreements, representations and warranties made by each party hereto in this Subscription Agreement shall survive the Closing.

g.          This Subscription Agreement may not be terminated other than pursuant to the terms of Section 9 above.  The provisions of this Subscription Agreement may not be modified, amended or waived except by an instrument in writing, signed by each of the parties hereto; provided, however, that no modification, amendment or waiver by ListCo of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall be effective without the prior written consent of ARYA (other than modifications, amendments or waivers that are solely ministerial in nature or otherwise immaterial and, in each case, do not affect any economic or any other material term of this Subscription Agreement). No failure or delay of either party hereto in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have hereunder.

h.          This Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the schedule hereto and the Warrant Agreement attached hereto) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof.  Except as set forth in Section 3(b), Section 7, Section 9, Section 11(c), Section 11(e), Section 11(g), this Section 11(h) and the last sentence of Section 11(l) with respect to the persons specifically referenced therein, this Subscription Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto, and their respective successors and assigns, and the parties hereto acknowledge that such persons so referenced are third party beneficiaries of this Subscription Agreement with right of enforcement for the purposes of, and to the extent of, the rights granted to them, if any, pursuant to the applicable provisions.

i.          Except as otherwise provided herein, this Subscription Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives, and permitted assigns, and the agreements, representations, warranties, covenants and acknowledgments contained herein shall be deemed to be made by, and be binding upon, such heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.

j.          If any provision of this Subscription Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.

k.          This Subscription Agreement may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts (including, without limitation, by facsimile or electronic mail or in .pdf) and by different parties in separate counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document. All counterparts so executed and delivered shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same agreement.

l.          The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur if any of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Subscription Agreement, without posting a bond or undertaking and without proof of damages, to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Subscription Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Company shall be entitled to seek to specifically enforce the Investor’s obligations hereunder, ListCo’s obligations under this Subscription Agreement and the provisions of the Subscription Agreement of which the Company is an express third party beneficiary, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

m.       Any notice or communication required or permitted hereunder to be given to the Investor shall be in writing and either delivered personally, emailed or sent by overnight mail via a reputable overnight carrier, or sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, to such address(es) or email address(es) set forth on the signature page hereto, and shall be deemed to be given and received (i) when so delivered personally, (ii) when sent, with no mail undeliverable or other rejection notice, if sent by email, or (iii) three (3) business days after the date of mailing to the address below or to such other address or addresses as the Investor may hereafter designate by notice given hereunder:

In connection with the Transaction, ListCo is seeking commitments from interested investors to purchase in a private placement, contingent upon, and substantially concurrently with the closing of the Transaction, (i) shares (the “Shares”) of ListCo’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) , and (ii) warrants, each representing the right to purchase shares of Common Stock and to be represented by a warrant with the terms and conditions in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Warrant Agreement”) and which will be executed on the Closing Date (as defined below) (such warrants, the “Warrants” and together with the Shares, the “PIPE Securities”). The shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants are herein after referred to as the “Warrant Shares.” On February 13, 2024 and June 24, 2024, the parties to this Subscription Agreement (other than the Investor) entered into subscription agreements (as amended and restated on or about the date hereof, to the extent applicable, the “Other Subscription Agreements,” and together with this Subscription Agreement, the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain other investors (the “Other Investors,” and together with the Investor, the “Investors”). The aggregate purchase price to be paid by the Investor for the PIPE Securities (as set forth on the signature page hereto) is referred to herein as the “Subscription Amount.”

In connection therewith, and in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, each of the Investor, ARYA and ListCo acknowledges and agrees as follows:

1.          Subscription. The Investor hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from ListCo the number of PIPE Securities set forth on the signature page of this Subscription Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that ListCo reserves the right to accept or reject the Investor’s subscription for the PIPE Securities for any reason or for no reason, in whole or in part, at any time prior to its acceptance, and the same shall be deemed to be accepted by ListCo only when this Subscription Agreement is signed by a duly authorized person by or on behalf of ListCo; ListCo may do so in counterpart form. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the PIPE Securities that will be purchased by the Investor and issued by ListCo on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement, or in the case of the Warrant Shares, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Warrant Agreement, shall be securities of a Delaware corporation (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, securities of ARYA, a Cayman Islands exempted company).

2.          Closing. The closing of the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) is contingent upon the substantially concurrent consummation of the Transaction. The Closing shall occur contingent upon, and substantially concurrent with the effectiveness of the Transaction (the date the Closing so occurs, the “Closing Date”). Upon delivery of written notice from (or on behalf of) ListCo to the Investor (the “Closing Notice”), that ListCo reasonably expects all conditions to the closing of the Transaction under the Transaction Agreement to be satisfied or waived on a date that is not less than five (5) business days from the date on which the Closing Notice is delivered to the Investor, the Investor shall deliver to ListCo, three (3) business days prior to the anticipated closing date specified in the Closing Notice, any other information that is reasonably requested in the Closing Notice in order for the PIPE Securities to be issued to the Investor, including, without limitation, the legal name of the person in whose name such securities are to be issued and a duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8, as applicable. On the Closing Date, ListCo shall issue a number of PIPE Securities to the Investor set forth on the signature page to this Subscription Agreement, including by delivering a fully executed Warrant Agreement to the Investor, and subsequently cause the Shares to be registered in book entry form, free and clear of all liens (other than those arising under applicable securities laws), in the name of the Investor on ListCo’s share register. In lieu of paying the Subscription Amount, Investor hereby agrees that it shall not exercise its right to redeem the number of Class A Shares (as defined below) set forth on the signature page hereto, which it currently holds as of the date of this Subscription Agreement, prior to and in connection with the consummation of the Transaction in accordance with Section 15 hereof. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banking institutions in New York, New York are authorized or required to close for business.

5.          ListCo Representations and Warranties. ListCo represents and warrants to the Investor that:

a.          ListCo is duly incorporated and validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. ListCo has all power (corporate or otherwise) and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as presently conducted and to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement.

b.         As of the Closing Date, the Shares, the Warrants and any Warrant Shares, will be duly authorized and, when issued and delivered to the Investor against full payment therefor in accordance with the terms of this Subscription Agreement or the Warrant Agreement, as applicable, such Shares or Warrant Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will not have been issued in violation of or subject to any preemptive or similar rights created under ListCo’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws (each, as amended on the Closing Date) or under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or under any agreement or instrument to which ListCo is a party. As of the Closing Date, the Warrant Shares will have been duly reserved for issuance in an amount of duly authorized shares of Common Stock that is equal to the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the initial exercise of the Warrants. ListCo shall keep such number of shares of Common Stock as necessary to satisfy the exercise of the Warrants at all times reserved for issuance until the earlier of the exercise of the Warrants in full or the expiration of the Warrants in accordance with their respective terms. The Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of any Warrant will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. On the Closing Date, the Warrant Agreement will be duly authorized, and when executed and delivered by ListCo, will constitute the valid and binding agreement of ListCo and will be enforceable against ListCo in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

c.          This Subscription Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered by ListCo and, assuming that this Subscription Agreement constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the Investor and ARYA, this Subscription Agreement is enforceable against ListCo in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

d.          The sale and issuance of the PIPE Securities and the compliance by ListCo with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the Warrant Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, including the issuance of the Warrant Shares, will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of ListCo or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of ListCo or any of its subsidiaries is subject that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the validity of the PIPE Securities, including the Warrant Shares, or legal authority of ListCo to comply in all material respects with the terms of this Subscription Agreement, the Warrant Agreement or the Transaction (a “ListCo Material Adverse Effect”); (ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of ListCo; or (iii) result in any violation of any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over ListCo or any of its properties that would reasonably be expected to have a ListCo Material Adverse Effect.

e.          As of the date of this Subscription Agreement, the authorized share capital of ListCo (excluding the PIPE Securities) consists of one thousand (1,000) shares of Common Stock and the issued share capital of ListCo consists of one (1) share of Common Stock, which (A) has been duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, (B) has been issued in compliance with applicable law and (C) has not been issued in breach or violation of any preemptive rights or contract.

Except as set forth above and pursuant to the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement and the other agreements and arrangements referred to therein, as of the date hereof, there are no outstanding options, warrants or other rights to subscribe for, purchase or acquire from ListCo any equity interests in ListCo, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such equity interests. As of the date hereof, ListCo has no subsidiaries, other than ARYA Merger Sub and Company Merger Sub, and does not own, directly or indirectly, interests or investments (whether equity or debt) in any person, whether incorporated or unincorporated.

f.          Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Investor, ListCo is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by ListCo of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance by ListCo of the PIPE Securities or any Warrant Shares), other than (i) filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), (ii) filings required by applicable state securities laws, (iii) filings required by Nasdaq, or such other applicable stock exchange on which ListCo’s common equity will be listed (the “Stock Exchange”), (iv) those required to consummate the Transaction as provided under the Transaction Agreement, and (v) those of which the failure to obtain would not be reasonably likely to have a ListCo Material Adverse Effect.

The PIPE Securities (i) were not offered to the Investor by any form of general solicitation or general advertising and (ii) are not being offered to the Investor in a manner involving a public offering under, or in a distribution in violation of, the Securities Act, or any state securities laws.

i.          Except for such matters as have not had and would not be reasonably likely to have a ListCo Material Adverse Effect, as of the date hereof, there is no (i) action, suit, claim or other proceeding, in each case by or before any governmental authority pending, or, to the knowledge of ListCo, threatened against ListCo or (ii) judgment, decree, injunction, ruling or order of any governmental entity or arbitrator outstanding against ListCo.

k.          ListCo acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Shares and Warrant Shares may be pledged by Investor in connection with a bona fide margin agreement, provided such pledge shall be (i) pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or (ii) pursuant to, and in accordance with, a registration statement that is effective under the Securities Act at the time of such pledge, and the Investor effecting a pledge of the Shares and Warrant Shares shall not be required to provide ListCo with any notice thereof; provided, however, that neither ListCo, ARYA, the Company or their respective counsels shall be required to take any action (or refrain from taking any action) in connection with any such pledge, other than providing any such lender of such margin agreement with an acknowledgment that the Shares and Warrant Shares are not subject to any contractual prohibition on pledging or lock up, the form of such acknowledgment to be subject to review and comment by ListCo in all respects.

l.          Other than the Other Subscription Agreements, the Transaction Agreement and any other agreement contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, as of the date hereof, ListCo has not entered into any side letter or similar agreement with any Other Investor or any other investor in connection with such Other Investor’s or investor’s direct or indirect investment in ListCo (other than any side letter or similar agreement relating to the transfer to any investor of securities to be issued to the direct or indirect securityholders of the Company pursuant to the Transaction Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that ListCo may enter into additional subscription agreements after the date hereof; provided, however, that if any such agreement is with respect to equity financing, then any such agreement shall be on substantially the same terms and at an effective offering price no less than as provided for pursuant to this Subscription Agreement. The Other Subscription Agreements have not been amended or modified in any material respect following the date of this Subscription Agreement.

The Investor acknowledges that the PIPE Securities (i) were not offered by any form of general solicitation or general advertising and (ii) are not being offered in a manner involving a public offering under, or in a distribution in violation of, the Securities Act, or any state securities laws. The Investor acknowledges that it is not relying upon, and has not relied upon, any statement, representation or warranty made by any person, firm or corporation (including, without limitation, ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agents, any of their respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing), other than the representations and warranties of ListCo and ARYA contained in Section 5 and Section 6 of this Subscription Agreement, in making its investment or decision to invest in ListCo.

g.          The Investor acknowledges that it is aware that there are substantial risks incident to the purchase and ownership of the PIPE Securities, including, without limitation, those set forth in the SEC Reports. The Investor has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the PIPE Securities, and the Investor has had an opportunity to seek, and has sought such accounting, legal, business and tax advice as the Investor has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision and the Investor has made its own assessment and satisfied itself concerning relevant tax and other economic considerations relative to its purchase of the PIPE Securities. The Investor (i) is an institutional account as defined in FINRA Rule 4512(c), (ii) is a sophisticated investor, experienced in investing in private equity transactions and capable of evaluating investment risks independently, both in general and with regard to all transactions and investment strategies involving a security or securities, and (iii) has exercised independent judgment in evaluating its participation in the purchase of the PIPE Securities.

h.          Alone, or together with any professional advisor(s), the Investor has adequately analyzed and fully considered the risks of an investment in the PIPE Securities and determined that the PIPE Securities are a suitable investment for the Investor and that the Investor is able at this time and in the foreseeable future to bear the economic risk of a total loss of the Investor’s investment in ListCo. The Investor acknowledges specifically that a possibility of total loss exists.

i.          In making its decision to purchase the PIPE Securities, the Investor has relied solely upon independent investigation made by the Investor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Investor has not relied on any statements or other information provided by or on behalf of the Placement Agents or any of their respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing concerning ListCo, the Company, the Transaction, the Transaction Agreement, this Subscription Agreement, the Warrant Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the PIPE Securities or the offer and sale of the PIPE Securities.

j.          The Investor acknowledges and agrees that no federal or state agency has passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the PIPE Securities or made any findings or determination as to the fairness of this investment.

k.          The Investor, if not an individual, has been duly formed or incorporated and is validly existing and is in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation or incorporation, with power and authority to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement.

l.          The execution, delivery and performance by the Investor of this Subscription Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein are within the powers of the Investor, have been duly authorized and will not constitute or result in a breach or default under or conflict with any order, ruling or regulation of any court or other tribunal or of any governmental commission or agency, or any agreement or other undertaking, to which the Investor is a party or by which the Investor is bound, and, if the Investor is not an individual, will not conflict with or violate any provisions of the Investor’s organizational documents, including, without limitation, its incorporation or formation papers, bylaws, indenture of trust or partnership or operating agreement, as may be applicable.

m.         The Investor is not (i) a person or entity named on the List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons, the Executive Order 13599 List, the Foreign Sanctions Evaders List, or the Sectoral Sanctions Identification List, each of which is administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) or in any Executive Order issued by the President of the United States and administered by OFAC (“OFAC List”), or a person or entity prohibited by any OFAC sanctions program, (ii) owned, directly or indirectly, or controlled by, or acting on behalf of, one or more persons that are named on the OFAC Lists; (iii) organized, incorporated, established, located, resident or born in, or a citizen, national or the government, including any political subdivision, agency or instrumentality thereof, of Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russia, Syria, the Crimea, Donetsk or Luhansk regions of Ukraine or any other country or territory embargoed or subject to substantial trade restrictions by the United States, (iv)  a Designated National as defined in the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R.

Section 5311 et seq.) (the “BSA”), as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 (the “PATRIOT Act”), and its implementing regulations (collectively, the “BSA/PATRIOT Act”), the Investor maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to comply with applicable obligations under the BSA/PATRIOT Act. To the extent required, it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed for the screening of its investors against the OFAC sanctions programs, including, without limitation, the OFAC List. To the extent required by applicable law, the Investor maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure that the funds held by the Investor and used to purchase the PIPE Securities and any Warrant Shares were legally derived and were not obtained, directly or indirectly, from a Prohibited Investor.

n.         The Investor acknowledges that no disclosure or offering document has been prepared by the Placement Agents in connection with the offer and sale of the PIPE Securities.

o.          The Investor acknowledges that neither the Placement Agents, nor any of their respective affiliates nor any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing have made any independent investigation with respect to ListCo, ARYA, the Company or its subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, or the PIPE Securities or the accuracy, completeness or adequacy of any information supplied to the Investor by ListCo, ARYA or the Company, as applicable.

p.          The Investor has or has commitments to have and, when required to deliver payment to ListCo pursuant to Section 2 above, will have, sufficient funds to pay the Subscription Amount and consummate the sale, purchase and issuance of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

q.          The Investor does not have, as of the date hereof, and during the thirty (30) day period immediately prior to the date hereof such Investor has not entered into, any “put equivalent position” as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act or short sale positions with respect to the securities of ARYA. 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 PIPE Securities covered by this Subscription Agreement.

r.          The Investor is not currently (and at all times through Closing will refrain from being or becoming) a member of a “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act or any successor provision) acting for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of equity securities of ARYA (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act), other than a group consisting solely of the Investor and its affiliates.

s.          The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Placement Agents (a) are acting solely in their capacity as placement agents with respect to the issuance and sale of the PIPE Securities pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and the Other Subscription Agreements, are not acting as underwriters, initial purchasers, dealers, financial advisors, fiduciaries or in any other capacities and are not and shall not be construed as fiduciaries to the Investor, ListCo, ARYA or any other person or entity in connection with this offering of the PIPE Securities or the Transaction; (b) have not made and will not make any representation or warranty, whether express or implied, of any kind or character to the Investor and have not provided any advice or recommendation in connection with this offering of the PIPE Securities or the Transaction; (c) will have no responsibility with respect to (i) any representations, warranties or agreements made by any person or entity under or in connection with the offering of the PIPE Securities, the Transaction or any of the documents furnished pursuant thereto or in connection therewith or the execution, legality, validity or enforceability (with respect to any person) of any thereof, or (ii) the business, affairs, financial condition, operations, properties or prospects of, or any other matter concerning ListCo, this offering of PIPE Securities, or the Transaction.

u.          The Investor acknowledges and agrees that none of the Placement Agents shall have any liability or obligation (including without limitation, for or with respect to any losses, claims, damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, costs, expenses or disbursements incurred by the Investor, ListCo, ARYA or any other person or entity), whether in contract, tort or otherwise, to the Investor, or to any person claiming through the Investor, in respect of this offering of the PIPE Securities or the Transaction.

v.          The Investor acknowledges and agrees that none of the Placement Agents shall have any liability or obligation (including without limitation, for or with respect to any losses, claims, damages, obligations, penalties, judgments, awards, liabilities, costs, expenses or disbursements incurred by the Investor, ListCo, ARYA or any other person or entity), whether in contract, tort otherwise, to the Investor, or to any person claiming through the Investor, in respect of this offering of the PIPE Securities or the Transaction.

8.          Registration Rights.

a.          In the event that the Shares and the Warrant Shares (such securities, the “PIPE Registrable Securities”) are not registered in connection with the consummation of the Transaction, ListCo agrees that, within forty-five (45) calendar days after the consummation of the Transaction (the “Filing Date”), it will file with the SEC (at its sole cost and expense) a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) registering the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities, and it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) ninety (90) calendar days after the filing thereof (or one hundred-twenty (120) calendar days after the filing thereof if the SEC notifies ListCo that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the Filing Date and (ii) ten (10) business days after ListCo 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. ListCo agrees to cause such Registration Statement, or another shelf registration statement that includes the PIPE Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, to remain effective until the earliest of (i) the date that is five years and six months following the Closing, (ii) the date on which the Investor ceases to hold any PIPE Registrable Securities or any Warrants issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, or (iii) on the first date on which the Investor is able to sell all of its PIPE Registrable Securities issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares received in exchange therefor) under Rule 144 within 90 days without the public information, volume or manner limitations of such rule.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the SEC prevents ListCo from including any or all of the shares proposed to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities by the applicable stockholders or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of PIPE Registrable Securities which is equal to the maximum number of PIPE Registrable Securities as is permitted by the SEC. In such event, the number of PIPE Registrable Securities to be registered for each selling stockholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling stockholders. In no event shall the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless in response to a comment or request from the staff of the SEC or another regulatory agency; provided, however, that if the SEC requests that the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, the Investor will have an opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement. The Investor agrees to disclose its ownership to ListCo upon request to assist it in making the determination described above. If the PIPE Registrable Securities are eligible to be sold under Rule 144 within 90 days without the public information, volume or manner limitations of such rule, or the Registration Statement covering the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities is effective (and the Investor and its broker provide ListCo and its transfer agent with customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to ListCo and its transfer agent in connection therewith), then at the Investor’s request, ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to remove the restrictive legend described in Section 7(b) from the PIPE Registrable Securities. For as long as the Registration Statement shall remain effective pursuant to this Section 8(a), ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to (1) qualify the PIPE Registrable Securities for listing on the Stock Exchange and (2) update or amend the Registration Statement as necessary to include the Shares sold hereby for resale. For as long as the Investor holds the PIPE Registrable Securities, ListCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to file all reports, and provide all customary and reasonable cooperation, necessary to enable the Investor to resell the PIPE Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or Rule 144 (when Rule 144 becomes available to the Investor), as applicable. ListCo may amend the Registration Statement so as to convert the Registration Statement to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 at such time after ListCo becomes eligible to use such Form S-3. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that ListCo may suspend the use of any such Registration Statement if it determines that in order for such Registration Statement not to contain a material misstatement or omission, an amendment thereto would be needed,  if such filing would require the inclusion, in such Registration Statement, of financial statements that are unavailable to ListCo for reasons beyond ListCo’s control or use could materially affect a bona fide business or financing transaction of ListCo or would require premature disclosure of information that would adversely affect ListCo and that would at that time not otherwise be required in a current, quarterly, or annual report under the Exchange Act; provided, that (i) ListCo shall not so delay filing or so suspend the use of a registration statement for a period of more than ninety (90) consecutive days or more than a total of one hundred and eighty (180) calendar days, in each case in any three hundred and sixty (360) day period and (ii) ListCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make such Registration Statement available for the sale by the Investor of such securities as soon as practicable thereafter. ListCo’s obligations to include the PIPE Registrable Securities issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares issued in exchange therefor) for resale in the Registration Statement are contingent upon the Investor furnishing in writing to ListCo such information regarding the Investor, the securities of ListCo held by the Investor and the intended method of disposition of such PIPE Registrable Securities, which shall be limited to non-underwritten public offerings, as shall be reasonably requested by ListCo to effect the registration of such PIPE Registrable Securities, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as ListCo may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations.

b.          ListCo shall advise the Investor within two (2) business days (at ListCo’s expense): (i) when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose; (iv) of the receipt by ListCo of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the PIPE Registrable Securities included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and (v) subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading. Upon receipt of any written notice from ListCo (which notice shall not contain any material non-public information regarding ListCo) of the happening of any event contemplated in clauses (ii) through (v) above during the period that the Registration Statement is effective or if as a result of the occurrence of such event the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, the Investor agrees that (1) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the PIPE Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, sales conducted pursuant to Rule 144) until the Investor receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which ListCo agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by ListCo that it may resume such offers and sales, and (2) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by ListCo except (A) for disclosure to the Investor’s employees, agents and professional advisers who need to know such information and are obligated to keep it confidential, (B) for disclosures to the extent required in order to comply with reporting obligations to its limited partners who have agreed to keep such information confidential and (C) as required by law or subpoena.  ListCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable.  Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated in clauses (ii) through (v) above, except for such times as ListCo is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, ListCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the PIPE Registrable Securities included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

c.          Indemnification.

(i)        ListCo agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, the Investor, its directors, and officers, investment managers or advisors, employees, employees of its investment managers or advisors and agents, and each person who controls the Investor (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and each affiliate of the Investor (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus included 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 furnished in writing to ListCo by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein.

(ii)       The Investor agrees, severally and not jointly with any other person that is a party to the Other Subscription Agreements, to indemnify and hold harmless ListCo, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls ListCo (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any 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 or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of the Investor be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Investor upon the sale of the PIPE Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(iii)        Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (1) 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 right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (2) 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. An indemnifying party who elects not to assume the defense of a claim 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 legal counsel to any indemnified party a conflict of interest exists between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which (1) 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), (2) 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, or (3) contains any statement of fault or culpability.

(iv)        The indemnification provided for under this Subscription 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, employee, agent, affiliate or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the PIPE Registrable Securities.

(v)          If the indemnification provided under this Section 8(c) from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and 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 relates to information supplied by or on behalf of, 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. 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 above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 8(c) from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In no event shall the liability of the Investor pursuant to this Section 8(c)(v) be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Investor upon the sale of the PIPE Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation, and such obligations of the Investor shall be several and not joint.

9.         Termination. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earliest to occur of (a) such date and time as the Transaction Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (c) ListCo’s notification to the Investor in writing that it has, with the written consent of the Company, abandoned its plans to move forward with the Transaction and/or terminated the Investor’s obligations with respect to the subscription without the delivery of the Shares having occurred, and (d) the delivery of a notice of termination of this Subscription Agreement by the Investor to ListCo and ARYA on the Termination Date (as defined in the Transaction Agreement), if the Closing has not occurred by the Termination Date (provided, that the right to terminate this Subscription Agreement pursuant to this clause (d) shall not be available to the Investor if the Investor’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations under this Subscription Agreement (or if an affiliate of the Investor is an Other Investor, and such Other Investor’s breach of any of its covenants or obligations under an Other Subscription Agreement), either individually or in the aggregate, shall have proximately caused the failure of the consummation of the Transaction on or before the Termination Date) (the termination events described in clauses (a)–(d) above, collectively, the “Termination Events”); provided that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful and material breach of any covenant, agreement, obligation, representation or warranty hereunder prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from any such willful and material breach. ListCo shall notify the Investor of the termination of the Transaction Agreement as promptly as practicable after the termination of the Transaction Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any Termination Event, this Subscription Agreement shall be void and of no further effect and any monies paid by the Investor to ListCo in connection herewith shall promptly (and in any event within one (1) business day) following the Termination Event be returned to the Investor.

10.         Trust Account Waiver. The Investor acknowledges that ARYA is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving ARYA and one or more businesses or assets. The Investor further acknowledges that, as described in ARYA’s final prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated February 25, 2021 (the “Final Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of ARYA’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of ARYA’s initial public offering and private placement of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of ARYA, its public shareholders and the underwriters of ARYA’s initial public offering. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to ARYA to pay its tax obligations, if any, the cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only for the purposes set forth in the Final Prospectus. For and in consideration of ARYA entering into this Subscription Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Investor, on behalf of itself and its representatives, hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind it has or may have in the future, in or to any monies held in the Trust Account (or distributions therefrom to ARYA’s public shareholders or to the underwriters of ARYA’s initial public offering in respect of their deferred underwriting commissions held in the Trust Account), and agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 10 shall be deemed to limit the Investor’s right, title, interest or claim to any monies held in the Trust Account by virtue of its record or beneficial ownership of publicly traded Class A Shares acquired in an open market transaction, pursuant to a validly exercised redemption right with respect to any such Class A Shares, in accordance with ARYA’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended in connection with the shareholder meetings of ARYA on February 28, 2023 and February 27, 2024 and as may be subsequently amended from time to time, and the Investment Management Trust Agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company and ARYA, dated March 2, 2021, except to the extent that the Investor has otherwise agreed in writing with ListCo, ARYA, the Company or any of their respective affiliates to not exercise such redemption right.

11.          Miscellaneous.

a.          Neither this Subscription Agreement nor any rights that may accrue to the Investor hereunder (other than the PIPE Securities acquired hereunder and the rights set forth in Section 8 solely in connection with a transfer of such PIPE Securities (other than a transfer in connection with a sale pursuant to either an effective registration statement or under Rule 144), if any) may be transferred or assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after notifying ListCo, Investor may assign its rights and obligations under this Subscription Agreement to one or more of its affiliates (including other investment funds or accounts managed or advised by the investment manager who acts on behalf of Investor) or, with the Company’s prior written consent, to another person, provided that no such assignment shall relieve Investor of its obligations hereunder if any such assignee fails to perform such obligations.

b.          ListCo may request from the Investor such additional information as ListCo may deem necessary to register the resale of the PIPE Registrable Securities and evaluate the eligibility of the Investor to acquire the PIPE Securities, and the Investor shall provide any such information as may be reasonably requested. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other covenants or agreements in this Subscription Agreement, the Investor acknowledges that ListCo and ARYA may file a copy of this Subscription Agreement and Warrant Agreement with the SEC as an exhibit to a periodic report or a registration statement of ListCo or ARYA.

c.       The Investor acknowledges that ListCo, ARYA, the Company, the Placement Agents and others will rely on the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Subscription Agreement, including Schedule A hereto. Prior to the Closing, the Investor agrees to promptly notify ListCo, ARYA, the Company and the Placement Agents in writing if any of the acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations or warranties set forth in Section 7 above are no longer accurate in any material respect (other than those acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties qualified by materiality, in which case the Investor shall notify ListCo, ARYA, the Company and the Placement Agents if they are no longer accurate in any respect).

e.          ListCo, ARYA and the Placement Agents are each entitled to rely upon this Subscription Agreement and each is irrevocably authorized to produce this Subscription Agreement or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby; provided, however, that the foregoing clause of this Section 11(e) shall not give the Placement Agents any rights other than those expressly set forth herein and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be entitled to rely on any of the representations and warranties of ListCo or ARYA set forth in this Subscription Agreement.

No failure or delay of either party hereto in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have hereunder.

h.          This Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the schedule hereto and the Warrant Agreement attached hereto) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof.  Except as set forth in Section 3(b), Section 7, Section 9, Section 11(c), Section 11(e), Section 11(g), this Section 11(h) and the last sentence of Section 11(l) with respect to the persons specifically referenced therein, this Subscription Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties hereto, and their respective successors and assigns, and the parties hereto acknowledge that such persons so referenced are third party beneficiaries of this Subscription Agreement with right of enforcement for the purposes of, and to the extent of, the rights granted to them, if any, pursuant to the applicable provisions.

i.          Except as otherwise provided herein, this Subscription Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives, and permitted assigns, and the agreements, representations, warranties, covenants and acknowledgments contained herein shall be deemed to be made by, and be binding upon, such heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.

j.          If any provision of this Subscription Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Subscription Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.

k.          This Subscription Agreement may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts (including, without limitation, by facsimile or electronic mail or in .pdf) and by different parties in separate counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same document. All counterparts so executed and delivered shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Representations and Warranties of THE Investor

The Investor hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Company as follows:

4.1          Authorization, Etc.

4.2          Validity. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Investor is a party constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Investor, enforceable against the Investor in accordance with their terms, except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.

4.3          Purchase for Own Account. The Investor is acquiring the Bridge Note and the Convert and Warrant Securities (together, the “Bridge and Convert Securities”) and any equity securities directly or indirectly issuable upon conversion of the Bridge and Convert Securities (such equity securities together with the Bridge and Convert Securities, the “Securities”) solely for investment for the Investor’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that the Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. The acquisition by the Investor of any of the Securities shall constitute confirmation of the representation by the Investor that the Investor does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Securities. The Investor has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement, the Bridge and Convert Securities and any document delivered pursuant to any provision hereof or thereof (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”).

4.4          Disclosure of Information. The Investor has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the Securities, the offering of the Securities and the business, properties, prospects and financial condition of the Company.

4.5          Investment Experience. The Investor is an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Securities. If other than an individual, the Investor also represents it has not been organized for the purpose of acquiring the Securities. The Investor acknowledges that any investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk, and represents that it is able, without materially impairing its financial condition, to hold the Securities for an indefinite period of time and to suffer a complete loss of its investment.

4.6          Accredited Investor. The Investor is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”).

In this connection, the Investor represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated under the Act, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act. The Investor understands that the Securities have not been and will not be registered under the Act and have not been and will not be registered or qualified in any state in which they are offered, and the Investor will not be able to resell or otherwise transfer his, her or its Securities unless they are registered under the Act and registered or qualified under applicable state securities laws, or an exemption from such registration or qualification is available. The Investor has no immediate need for liquidity in connection with this investment and does not anticipate that it will need to sell his, her or its Securities in the foreseeable future.

4.8          Further Limitations on Disposition. Prior to the closing of the Transaction, without in any way limiting the representations set forth above, the Investor further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Securities or assign any rights hereunder unless and until the transferee has agreed in writing for the benefit of the Company to be bound by this Agreement (including this ) and any other agreement which the purchasers of new equity securities are required to execute and deliver, as provided for in Section 2 of the Bridge Note, and/or have entered into with the Company and by which the Investor is bound as of the date of such disposition, and:

(a)           There is then in effect a registration statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement; or

(b)           An exemption from registration is available with respect to such proposed disposition;

The Investor understands and agrees that the Company will cause the legends set forth below or legends substantially equivalent thereto, to be placed upon the Securities, together with any other legends that may be required by state or federal securities laws, or by any agreement to which the Investor may become party in accordance with the Securities or the Transaction:

THIS SECURITY AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON THE CONVERSION HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”) OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES.

All action on the part of the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Bridge Note, the performance of all obligations of the Company hereunder and thereunder, and the authorization, issuance (or reservation for issuance), sale and delivery of the Bridge Note and any equity securities directly or indirectly issuable upon conversion of the Bridge Note (such equity securities together with the Bridge Note, the “Bridge Securities”) has been taken or will be taken prior to the issuance of the applicable Bridge Securities. This Agreement and the Bridge Note to which the Company is a party constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.

5.3          Capitalization; Valid Issuance. Exhibit E attached hereto sets forth, as of the date hereof, all of the authorized, issued and outstanding equity securities of the Company and the holders thereof. Except as set forth on Exhibit E, in the Agreement or in the Bridge Note, there are no equity securities of the Company issued, reserved for issuance or outstanding and no outstanding options, warrants, convertible or exchangeable securities, securities exercisable for other securities, subscriptions, rights (including any preemptive rights), equity linked securities, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever to which the Company is a party or may be bound requiring the issuance or sale of any equity securities of the Company. Except as set forth in Exhibit E, no stock plan, stock purchase, stock option or other agreement or understanding between the Company and any holder of equity securities or rights to purchase equity securities provides for acceleration or other changes in the vesting provisions or terms of such agreements or understandings, or the lapse of a Company repurchase right, upon the occurrence of any event. The Company has never adjusted or amended the exercise price of any stock options previously awarded, whether through amendment, cancellation, replacement grant, repricing, or any other means. To the Company’s knowledge, no stock options, stock appreciation rights or other equity-based awards issued or granted by the Company are, or will be, subject to the penalties of Section 409A(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. All outstanding equity securities of the Company have been, or upon issuance will be, validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable. The Company holds no equity securities or other ownership interests in any other person or entity, other than the Subsidiary.

5.4          Financial Statements. The Company has provided to the Investor, a copy of the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2022 (the balance sheet at December 31, 2022 being hereinafter referred to as the “Balance Sheet”, and all such financial statements being hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Financial Statements”). The Financial Statements have been prepared in a manner consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis during the periods covered (except that the Financial Statements have been prepared without complete footnotes and are subject to year-end adjustments), and fairly present in all material respects the financial position and results of operations of the Company as of the date and for the periods covered thereby. At the date of the Balance Sheet (the “Balance Sheet Date”), the Company and its Subsidiary have no liabilities or obligations, fixed, contingent, or otherwise, not reflected on the Balance Sheet (including liabilities which under GAAP are not required to be reflected on the Balance Sheet) except for liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business, which, individually or in the aggregate, are not material to the financial condition or operating results of the Company. Except as disclosed in the Financial Statements, the Company is not a guarantor or indemnitor of any indebtedness of any other person or corporation.

5.5          Seniority of the Bridge Note. Except for, solely prior to the Convertible Note Closing, the Existing Credit Facility (as such term is defined in the Bridge Note), there is no Indebtedness of the Company that ranks senior in right of payment to the Bridge Note, whether with respect to payment of principal, interest, redemption, fees, or penalties, or upon liquidation or dissolution of the Company, or otherwise. The Investor, in its capacity as the Investor (as such term is defined in the 2023 Notes (as such term is defined in the Bridge Note)) and the holder of the 2023 Notes and the Second 2023 Notes Tranche, hereby consents to the issuance of the Bridge Note and incurrence of Indebtedness by the Company pursuant to the Bridge Note. The Bridge Note shall rank pari passu in right of payment to the 2023 Notes and the Second 2023 Notes Tranche, whether with respect to payment of principal, interest, redemption, fees, or penalties, or upon liquidation or dissolution of the Company, or otherwise. Prior to the earlier of (i) thirty (30) days following the issuance of the Bridge Note and (ii) the consummation of the Transaction, the Company shall deliver to the Investor, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Investor, an omnibus amendment (the “Omnibus Amendment”) to the convertible promissory notes issued by the Company on October 27, 2022 (the “2022 Notes”), executed by the Company and the requisite investors holding the 2022 Notes, which subordinates the 2022 Notes to the Bridge Note issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement. As of the Convertible Note Closing, the Closing Date Convertible Note and Converted Bridge Note shall rank pari passu in right of payment and liens to other New Adagio Convertible Notes that will be issued by New Adagio upon the consummation of the Transaction, whether with respect to payment of principal, interest, redemption, fees, or penalties, or upon liquidation or dissolution of the Company or New Adagio, or otherwise.

5.6          Indebtedness.

(a)           As of the Bridge Note Closing, other than the Existing Credit Facility, the 2022 Notes, the 2023 Notes and the Second 2023 Notes Tranche, neither the Company nor its Subsidiary (i) has any outstanding Indebtedness in an amount in excess of $1,000,000 (excluding intercompany Indebtedness), (ii) is in violation of any term of or in default under any contract, agreement or instrument relating to any such Indebtedness, except where such violations and defaults would not reasonably be expected to result, individually or in the aggregate, in a Company Material Adverse Effect, or (iii) is a party to any contract, agreement or instrument relating to any such Indebtedness, the performance of which, in the judgment of the Company’s officers, has or would reasonably be expected to have or is expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. As of the Bridge Note Closing, without limiting the foregoing, the Company hereby represents and warrants that immediately before and after entering into and giving effect to this Agreement, the Company is not in default, and there exists no event of default, under the Existing Credit Facility, the 2022 Notes, the 2023 Notes or the Second 2023 Notes Tranche, whether as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or otherwise.

(b)           As of the Convertible Note Closing, neither the Company nor its Subsidiary (i) has any outstanding Indebtedness (other than with respect to the New Adagio Convertible Notes) and other than Indebtedness expressly permitted under the New Adagio Convertible Notes, (ii) is in violation of any term of or in default under any contract, agreement or instrument relating to any such Indebtedness, except where such violations and defaults would not reasonably be expected to result, individually or in the aggregate, in a Company Material Adverse Effect, or (iii) is a party to any contract, agreement or instrument relating to any such Indebtedness, the performance of which, in the judgment of the Company’s officers, has or would reasonably be expected to have or is expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this Agreement, “Company Material Adverse Effect” means (a) a material adverse change in, or a material adverse effect upon, the results of operations, business, properties or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company; (b) a material impairment of the ability of the Company to perform in any material respect any of its or their respective obligations under the Bridge Note or this Agreement; or (c) a material adverse effect upon the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Agreement or the Bridge Note.

5.7          Litigation. There is no lawsuit, litigation, action, inquiry, audit, examination or investigation, claim, complaint, charge, proceeding, suit or arbitration (in each case, whether civil, criminal or administrative and whether public or private) by or before or otherwise involving any Authority (as defined herein) (“Action”) pending or to the Company’s knowledge, currently threatened against the Company that questions the validity of the Transaction Documents, the right of the Company to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or that would reasonably be expected to result, either individually or in the aggregate, in a Company Material Adverse Effect. The Company is not a party or subject to the provisions of any order, writ, injunction, judgment, ruling, decree, judicial or arbitral award, subpoena, verdict, determination or decision entered, issued or rendered by an Authority (as defined herein) (“Order”) that would reasonably be expected to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect. For the purpose of this Agreement, “Authority” means any United States or non-United States (i) federal, state, local, municipal or other government, (ii) governmental or quasi-governmental entity or (iii) body exercising or entitled to exercise any administrative, executive, judicial, legislative, police, regulatory, or taxing authority or power of any nature, including any arbitrator or arbitral tribunal (public or private).

5.8          Absence of Certain Changes. The Company represents that since December 31, 2023, there has been no material adverse change in the assets, operations or financial condition of the Company taken as a whole. The Company has not taken any steps with any governmental agency or authority or any other regulatory or self-regulatory agency or authority to seek protection pursuant to any bankruptcy law nor does the Company have any knowledge or reasonable basis to believe that its creditors intend to initiate involuntary bankruptcy proceedings or any actual knowledge of any fact which would reasonably lead a creditor to do so. As of the Bridge Note Closing, the Company is not, and, as of the Convertible Note Closing, after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby to occur at the Convertible Note Closing, New Adagio will not be Insolvent (as defined herein). For purposes of this Section , “Insolvent” means, with respect to any person (i) such person is unable to pay its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured in the ordinary course, (ii) such person intends to incur or believes that it will incur debts that would be beyond its ability to pay as such debts mature in the ordinary course or (iii) such person has unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the business in which it is engaged, as such business is now conducted. For purposes of the foregoing, the amount of any contingent liability at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in light of all facts and circumstances existing at the time, represents the amount that could reasonably be expected to become an actual liability.

10

5.9          Absence of Required Consents; No Violations; Compliance with Laws. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, qualification, designation, declaration or filing with, any Authority on the part of the Company or its Subsidiary is required in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for such filing(s) pursuant to applicable state securities laws as may be necessary, which filings will be timely effected after the Bridge Note Closing or the Convertible Note Closing, as applicable.

The Company and its Subsidiary are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable federal, national, state, local, foreign, national, multinational or supranational statutes, laws (including common law and, if applicable, fiduciary or similar duties), acts, statutes, ordinances, treaties, rules, codes and regulations (“Laws”) and Orders, and to the Company’s knowledge, neither of them have been charged with any violation of any applicable Law or Order, except as would not reasonably be expected to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to the Company. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not result in any such violation or be in conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of time and giving of notice, either a default under any Order or contract or an event that results in the creation of any material lien, charge or encumbrance upon any material assets of the Company or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any material permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to the Company, its Subsidiary, or their respective businesses or operations or any of their respective assets or properties.

5.10        Taxes. The Company has either (i) timely filed or (ii) timely filed extensions, solely to the extent such extensions are sought in the ordinary course of business, for, all federal, provincial, state, municipal, non-U.S. and other tax returns and reports required to be filed, and have timely paid all federal, provincial, state, municipal, non-U.S. and other taxes levied or imposed upon them or their properties, income or assets otherwise due and payable, except those which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and for which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with GAAP and, except for failures to file or pay as could not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect. There are no tax audits, deficiencies, assessments or other claims with respect to the Company that could, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Company Material Adverse Effect.

5.11        Offering. Subject in part to the truth and accuracy of the Investor’s representations set forth in of this Agreement, the offer, sale and issuance of the Bridge Securities by the Company as contemplated by this Agreement are exempt from the registration requirements of the Act and will not result in a violation of the qualification or registration requirements of any applicable state securities laws, and neither the Company nor any authorized agent acting on its behalf will take any action hereafter that would cause the loss of such exemption.

5.12        Valid Issuance of Securities. As of the Convertible Note Closing, the equity securities issuable by the Company upon conversion of the Bridge Note have been or will have been prior to their issuance duly and validly reserved for issuance, and when issued, sold and delivered in accordance with the terms of the Bridge Note, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

11

5.13        No “Bad Actor” Disqualification. The Company has exercised reasonable care to determine whether any Company Covered Person (as defined herein) is subject to any of the “bad actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) through (viii), as modified by Rules 506(d)(2) and (d)(3), under the Act (“Disqualification Events”). To the Company’s knowledge, no Company Covered Person is subject to a Disqualification Event. The Company has complied, to the extent required, with any disclosure obligations under Rule 506(e) under the Act. For purposes of this Agreement, “Company Covered Persons” are those persons specified in Rule 506(d)(1) under the Act; provided, however, that Company Covered Persons do not include (a) the Investor, or (b) any person or entity that is deemed to be an affiliated issuer of the Company solely as a result of the relationship between the Company and the Investor.

5.14        Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the proceeds of the Bridge Note (i) solely for working capital purposes for the operation of its business, and not for any personal, family or household purpose and (ii) in compliance with all applicable Laws.

12

6.4          Seniority of the Closing Date Convertible Note and the Converted Bridge Note. There is no Indebtedness of New Adagio that ranks senior in right of payment to the Closing Date Convertible Note and the Converted Bridge Note, whether with respect to payment of principal, interest, redemption, fees, or penalties, or upon liquidation or dissolution of New Adagio, or otherwise. The Closing Date Convertible Note and Converted Bridge Note shall rank pari passu in right of payment to other New Adagio Convertible Notes that will be issued by New Adagio upon the consummation of the Transaction, whether with respect to payment of principal, interest, redemption, fees, or penalties, or upon liquidation or dissolution of New Adagio or the Company, or otherwise.

6.5          Indebtedness. As of the Bridge Note Closing, New Adagio has no outstanding Indebtedness.

New Adagio is not a party or subject to the provisions of any Order that would reasonably be expected to result in a New Adagio Material Adverse Effect.

6.8          Absence of Required Consents; No Violations; Compliance with Laws. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Investor, no consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, qualification, designation, declaration or filing with, any Authority on the part of New Adagio is required in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, other than (i) filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, (ii) filings required by applicable state securities laws, (iii) filings required by Nasdaq, or such other applicable stock exchange on which shares of Common Stock will be listed, (iv) those required to consummate the Transaction as provided under the Business Combination Agreement, and (v) those of which the failure to obtain would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a New Adagio Material Adverse Effect. New Adagio is not in violation or default of any provision of New Adagio’s certificate of incorporation or New Adagio’s bylaws. New Adagio is in compliance in all material respects with all Laws and Orders, and to New Adagio’s knowledge, neither of them have been charged with any violation of any applicable Law or Order, except as would not reasonably be expected to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to New Adagio. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not result in any such violation or be in conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of time and giving of notice, either a default under any Order or contract or an event that results in the creation of any material lien, charge or encumbrance upon any material assets of New Adagio or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any material permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to New Adagio, or its operations, assets or properties.

14

6.10        Offering. Subject in part to the truth and accuracy of the Investor’s representations set forth in of this Agreement, the offer, sale and issuance of the Convert and Warrant Securities and the Convert Equity Securities by New Adagio as contemplated by this Agreement are exempt from the registration requirements of the Act and will not result in a violation of the qualification or registration requirements of any applicable state securities laws, and neither New Adagio nor any authorized agent acting on its behalf will take any action hereafter that would cause the loss of such exemption.

6.11        Valid Issuance of Securities. The Convert Equity Securities have been or will have been prior to their issuance duly and validly reserved for issuance, and when issued, sold and delivered in accordance with the terms of the applicable Convert and Warrant Securities, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

6.12        No “Bad Actor” Disqualification. New Adagio has exercised reasonable care to determine whether any New Adagio Covered Person (as defined herein) is subject to any of the “bad actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) through (viii), as modified by Rules 506(d)(2) and (d)(3), under the Act (“New Adagio Disqualification Events”). To New Adagio’s knowledge, no New Adagio Covered Person is subject to a New Adagio Disqualification Event. New Adagio has complied, to the extent required, with any disclosure obligations under Rule 506(e) under the Act. For purposes of this Agreement, “New Adagio Covered Persons” are those persons specified in Rule 506(d)(1) under the Act; provided, however, that New Adagio Covered Persons do not include (a) the Investor, or (b) any person or entity that is deemed to be an affiliated issuer of New Adagio solely as a result of the relationship between New Adagio and the Investor.

6.13        Use of Proceeds. New Adagio shall use the proceeds of the Convert and Warrant Securities (i) solely for working capital purposes for the operation of its business, and not for any personal, family or household purpose and (ii) in compliance with all applicable Laws.

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

Initial Principal Amount: $7,000,000 [●], 2024

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Adagio Medical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) promises to pay to Perceptive Life Sciences Master Fund, Ltd. (the “Investor”), or its registered assigns, the principal sum of SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS ($7,000,000), or such lesser amount as shall equal the outstanding principal amount hereof (the “Principal Amount”), together with interest from the date of this convertible promissory note (this “Note”) on the unpaid principal balance at a rate equal to 8% per annum (the “Interest Rate”), computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 365 days. If an Event of Default (as defined below) occurs and is continuing, the Interest Rate shall increase to 12% per annum while such Event of Default is continuing. The then-outstanding Principal Amount, together with any then unpaid and accrued interest payable hereunder, shall be due and payable upon the termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms (the “Maturity Date”).

This Note is issued pursuant to that certain Note Purchase Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the “Agreement”; together with this Note, the “Note Documents”) between the Company and the Investor, dated the date hereof. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings given them in the Agreement.

1.           Payments.

(a)          Interest. Interest on the Principal Amount will accrue at the then applicable Interest Rate and shall be payable on the Maturity Date.

(b)          Dividends. Following the issuance date of this Note, when, as and if a dividend is declared on the Common Stock or any equivalents thereof, the Investor shall participate in such dividend, in an amount determined on an as-converted basis as though this Note had been converted pursuant to Section 2 hereof.

(c)          Voluntary Prepayment. This Note may not be prepaid without the consent of the Investor.

(d)          Maturity. The Principal Amount and any accrued and unpaid interest, is due and payable on the Maturity Date.

(e)          Change of Control Transaction; Liquidation Event. (A) In the event of: (i) a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another person or entity; (ii) a reorganization, business combination or the sale by the Company of its voting equity securities after the consummation of which the equityholders of the Company immediately before such transaction own in the aggregate less than fifty percent (50%) of the Company’s equity value or voting power after the transaction; or (iii) the sale or exclusive license of a substantial portion of the Company’s intellectual property or the sale, lease or other disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of its assets to another entity, in each case whether direct or indirect, whether in a single transaction or series of transactions, and whether by merger, consolidation, recapitalization, purchase or issuance of equity securities, purchase of assets, tender offer or otherwise (collectively subsections (i), (ii), and (iii) of this Section 1(d), a “Change of Control Transaction”; provided, however, that the Transaction shall not constitute a Change of Control Transaction hereunder) or (B) in the event that the Company liquidates, dissolves or winds up its business and affairs as a result of (i) a voluntary decision to cease operating or (ii) a proceeding described in either of Section 3(e) or Section 3(f) (a “Liquidation Event”; provided, however, that the Transaction shall not constitute a Liquidation Event hereunder), unless this Note is converted pursuant to Section 2(b), the Company shall, immediately upon the consummation of the Change of Control Transaction or the Liquidation Event and prior to any payment to the equityholders of the Company, pay to the Investor an amount equal to the greater of (x) 120% of the sum of (i) the then-outstanding Principal Amount and all accrued and unpaid interest hereunder plus (ii) all accrued and unpaid dividends owed to the Investor pursuant to Section 1(b) and (y) such amount of proceeds as if all then-outstanding Principal Amount and any accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the Note had been converted into Common Stock (the “Liquidation Preference”).

2.           Conversion. The Investor and the Company agree as follows:

(a)          Business Combination Transaction Conversion. In the event of the consummation of the Transaction, effective upon the closing of the Transaction, this Note shall automatically be cancelled (or transferred to New Adagio) in connection with the issuance of New Adagio Convertible Notes (in the form of the New Adagio Convertible Note attached as Exhibit B to the Agreement) to the Investor, pursuant to, and in accordance with, the Agreement and the securities purchase agreement, dated February 13, 2024, by and among New Adagio, ARYA, the Company and the Investor. Any interest accrued on the Principal Amount shall be forfeited in connection with a cancellation (or transfer of the Note to New Adagio) described in this Section 2(a).

(b)          Post-Business Combination Termination Conversions. In the event of the termination or abandonment of the Transaction:

(i)             Prior to a Qualified Financing (as defined below), the Investor may, at the sole discretion of the Investor exercisable at any time, convert all, but not less than all, of the then-outstanding Principal Amount of this Note and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon into an amount of shares of the Company’s Series E Preferred Stock (as defined in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation) equal to the to be converted Principal Amount and any accrued and unpaid interest divided by the price per share/unit equal to $24,000,000 divided by the Company’s fully-diluted Common Stock equivalents at the time of the closing date of the conversion pursuant to this Section 2(b) (assuming conversion of all securities convertible into Common Stock and exercise of all outstanding options and warrants, including all shares of Common Stock reserved and available for future grant under any equity incentive or similar plan of the Company, and/or any equity incentive or similar plan to be created or increased in connection any financing, but excluding the shares of equity securities of the Company issuable upon the conversion of this Note); provided, that the Company shall cause the shares of Series E Preferred Stock issued upon conversion of this Note to bear an aggregate liquidation preference amount equal to 120% of the then-outstanding Principal Amount and accrued and unpaid interest under this Note at the time of conversion (and for the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall, if necessary, create a sub-series of the Series E Preferred Stock on identical terms to Series E Preferred Stock, except that the aggregate liquidation preference of such sub-series will be an amount equal to 120% of the then-outstanding Principal Amount and accrued and unpaid interest under this Note at the time of conversion); or

(ii)           In the event of any sale of a new series or class of preferred equity securities by the Company following the termination or abandonment of the Transaction with aggregate proceeds to the Company of at least $10,000,000 (excluding conversion of the Note, the Second 2023 Notes Tranche (as defined below), the 2023 Notes (as defined below) and the 2022 Notes (as defined below)) (a “Qualified Financing”), Investor will elect to convert the then-outstanding Principal Amount and any accrued and unpaid interest hereunder and under the 2023 Notes and the Second 2023 Notes Tranche into either (A) the Company’s Series E Preferred Stock, as described in Section 2(b)(i) or (B) such securities, shares or units to be issued and sold in such Qualified Financing, in each case in an amount that is equal to (I) the to be converted Principal Amount and any accrued and unpaid interest divided by (II) the price per share/unit equal to the lesser of (aa) 75% of the per share/unit price in such Qualified Financing and (bb) an amount equal to $24,000,000 divided by the number of fully-diluted Common Stock (or unit) equivalents at the time of the Qualified Financing (assuming conversion of all securities convertible into Common Stock and exercise of all outstanding options and warrants, including all shares of Common Stock reserved and available for future grant under any equity incentive or similar plan of the Company, and/or any equity incentive or similar plan to be created or increased in connection with the Qualified Financing, but excluding the shares of equity securities of the Company issuable upon the conversion of this Note, the 2023 Notes, the Second 2023 Notes Tranche or in connection with the Qualified Financing). In the event that the preferred equity security issued in the Qualified Financing bears a liquidation preference less than 120%, then the Company shall create a sub-series of such preferred security on identical terms to the security issued in the Qualified Financing, except that the aggregate liquidation preference of such sub-series will be an amount equal to 120% of the then-outstanding Principal Amount and accrued and unpaid interest under this Note, the 2023 Notes and the Second 2023 Notes Tranche at the time of conversion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall be deemed to cause or require the conversion of any amount of principal or interest under this note in connection with a Qualified Financing, unless at the time of such Qualified Financing (x) the Company is not in breach or default of any term or provision of this Note or the Agreement (and no such breach or default has previously occurred), (y) the Company certifies to Investor that the Company’s representations and warranties set forth in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.6, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13 and the first and second sentences of Section 4.9 of the Agreement are, in each case, true and correct in all material respects as of the date of the Qualified Financing, and (z) there has been no Material Adverse Effect.

3

(c)          Procedure. Solely in connection with a conversion pursuant to Section 2(b) above, the Investor shall execute and deliver to the Company all commercially reasonable transaction documents (i) entered into by holders of the Company’s Series E Preferred Stock, or (ii) to be executed by other purchasers in a Qualified Financing, as applicable, with customary representations, covenants, warranties, registration rights and transfer restrictions (including, without limitation, (A) the same registration rights granted to investors in the fourth amended and restated investors’ rights agreement, dated November 9, 2020, by and among the Company and the Investor, and (B) a 180-day lock-up agreement in connection with an initial public offering on all shares held prior to the initial public offering; provided that all officers and directors of the Company enter into the same lock-up agreement and if any shareholders (other than any non-management shareholders who individually hold less than two percent (2%) of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company) execute lock-up agreements with transfer restrictions for a shorter period of time or are exempted from transfer restrictions following the closing of the initial public offering, then such shorter transfer restrictions or exemption from transfer restrictions shall also apply to the Investor). At least five (5) business days prior to the closing of a Qualified Financing, the Investor shall have received form final drafts of any documents to be executed by the Investor in such a Qualified Financing and shall have the right to approve any such documents prior to the execution by other purchasers.

EX-14.1

Exhibit 14.1

CODE OF ETHICS AND BUSINESS CONDUCT

ADAGIO MEDICAL HOLDINGS, INC.

EFFECTIVE: July 29, 2024

1.         Introduction

1.1        The board of directors (the “Board”) of Adagio Medical Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) has adopted this Code of Ethics and Business Conduct (the “Code”) in order to:

(a)          promote honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest;

(b)        promote full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with, or submits to, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and in other public communications made by the Company;

(c)          promote compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;

(d)          promote the protection of Company assets, including corporate opportunities and confidential information;

(e)          promote fair dealing practices;

(f)          deter wrongdoing; and

(g)          ensure accountability for adherence to the Code.

1.2          All directors, officers and employees are required to be familiar with the Code, comply with its provisions and report any suspected violations as described below in Section 10.

2.         Honest and Ethical Conduct

2.1       The Company’s policy is to promote high standards of integrity by conducting its affairs honestly and ethically.

2.2       Each director, officer and employee must act with integrity and observe the highest ethical standards of business conduct in their dealings with the Company’s customers, suppliers, partners, service providers, competitors, employees and anyone else with whom they have contact in the course of performing their job.

3.         Conflicts of Interest

3.1          A conflict of interest occurs when an individual’s private interest (or the interest of a member of their family) interferes, or even appears to interfere, with the interests of the Company as a whole. A conflict of interest can arise when an employee, officer or director (or a member of their family) takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform their work for the Company objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest also arise when an employee, officer or director (or a member of their family) receives improper personal benefits as a result of their position in the Company.

3.2       Loans by the Company to, or guarantees by the Company of obligations of, employees or their family members are of special concern and could constitute improper personal benefits to the recipients of such loans or guarantees, depending on the facts and circumstances. Loans by the Company to, or guarantees by the Company of obligations of, any director or executive officer or their family members are generally prohibited unless they are first approved in writing by the Audit Committee in accordance with the Company’s Related Party Transactions Policy.

3.3         Whether or not a conflict of interest exists or will exist can be unclear. Conflicts of interest should be avoided unless specifically authorized as described in Section 3.4.

3.4         Persons other than directors and executive officers who have questions about a potential conflict of interest or who become aware of an actual or potential conflict should discuss the matter with, and seek a determination and prior authorization or approval from, their supervisor or the [Chief Compliance Officer].¹ A supervisor may not authorize or approve conflict of interest matters or make determinations as to whether a problematic conflict of interest exists without first providing the [Chief Compliance Officer] with a written description of the activity and seeking the [Chief Compliance Officer]’s written approval. If the supervisor is themself involved in the potential or actual conflict, the matter should instead be discussed directly with the [Chief Compliance Officer].

3.5        Directors and executive officers must seek determinations and prior authorizations or approvals of potential conflicts of interest exclusively from the Audit Committee.

4.         Compliance

4.1         Employees, officers and directors should comply, both in letter and spirit, with all applicable laws, rules and regulations in the cities, states and countries in which the Company operates.

4.2        Although not all employees, officers and directors are expected to know the details of all applicable laws, rules and regulations, it is important to know enough to determine when to seek advice from appropriate personnel. Questions about compliance should be addressed to the [General Counsel].².

4.3         No director, officer or employee may purchase or sell any Company securities while in possession of material nonpublic information regarding the Company, nor may any director, officer or employee purchase or sell another company’s securities while in possession of material nonpublic information regarding that company. It is against Company policies and illegal for any director, officer or employee to use material nonpublic information regarding the Company or any other company to:

(a)          obtain profit for himself or herself; or

(b)          directly or indirectly “tip” others who might make an investment decision on the basis of that information.

¹ Note to Company: Please advise as to whether there will be a chief compliance officer or whether this should be another officer.

² Note to Company: We reference General Counsel throughout this document. Will the Company have a General Counsel? If not, we can replace this with another party such as Chief Financial Officer.

5.         Disclosure

5.1        The Company’s periodic reports and other documents filed with the SEC, including all financial statements and other financial information, must comply with applicable federal securities laws and SEC rules.

5.2       Each director, officer and employee who contributes in any way to the preparation or verification of the Company’s financial statements and other financial information must ensure that the Company’s books, records and accounts are accurately maintained. Each director, officer and employee must cooperate fully with the Company’s accounting and internal audit departments, as well as the Company’s independent public accountants and counsel.

5.3          Each director, officer and employee who is involved in the Company’s disclosure process must:

(a)          be familiar with and comply with the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and its internal control over financial reporting; and

(b)        take all necessary steps to ensure that all filings with the SEC and all other public communications about the financial and business condition of the Company provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure.

6.         Protection and Proper Use of Company Assets

6.1        All directors, officers and employees should protect the Company’s assets and ensure their efficient use. Theft, carelessness and waste have a direct impact on the Company’s profitability and are prohibited.

6.2       All Company assets should be used only for legitimate business purposes. Any suspected incident of fraud or theft should be reported for investigation immediately.

6.3      The obligation to protect Company assets includes the Company’s proprietary information. Proprietary information includes intellectual property such as trade secrets, patents, trademarks, and copyrights, as well as business and marketing plans, engineering and manufacturing ideas, designs, databases, records and any nonpublic financial data or reports. Unauthorized use or distribution of this information is prohibited and could also be illegal and result in civil or criminal penalties.

7.          Corporate Opportunities

7.1        All directors, officers and employees owe a duty to the Company to advance its interests when the opportunity arises. Directors, officers and employees are prohibited from taking for themselves personally (or for the benefit of friends or family members) opportunities that are discovered through the use of Company assets, property, information or position. Directors, officers and employees may not use Company assets, property, information or position for personal gain (including gain of friends or family members). In addition, no director, officer or employee may compete with the Company.

8.         Confidentiality

8.1          Directors, officers and employees should maintain the confidentiality of information entrusted to them by the Company or by its customers, suppliers or partners, except when disclosure is expressly authorized or is required or permitted by law. Confidential information includes all nonpublic information (regardless of its source) that might be of use to the Company’s competitors or harmful to the Company or its customers, suppliers or partners if disclosed.

9.         Fair Dealing

9.1       Each director, officer and employee must deal fairly with the Company’s customers, suppliers, partners, service providers, competitors, employees and anyone else with whom they have contact in the course of performing their job. No director, officer or employee may take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of facts or any other unfair dealing practice.

10.       Anti-Money Laundering

10.1     The Company is committed to complying fully with all anti-money laundering laws. Money laundering generally involves conducting a transaction to conceal the illegal origins of funds or to facilitate illegal activity. The Company aims to conduct business only with reputable customers involved in legitimate business activities using funds derived from legitimate sources. Employees should avoid engaging in any transaction that is structured in any way that could be viewed as concealing illegal conduct or the tainted nature of the proceeds or assets at issue in the transaction.

11.       Reporting and Enforcement

11.1        Reporting and Investigation of Violations.

(a)       Actions prohibited by this Code involving directors or executive officers must be reported to the Audit Committee.

(b)         Actions prohibited by this Code involving anyone other than a director or executive officer must be reported to the reporting person’s supervisor or the [Chief Compliance Officer].

(c)        After receiving a report of an alleged prohibited action, the Audit Committee, the relevant supervisor or the [Chief Compliance Officer] must promptly take all appropriate actions necessary to investigate.

(d)         All directors, officers and employees are expected to cooperate in any internal investigation of misconduct.

11.2          Enforcement.

(a)          The Company must ensure prompt and consistent action against violations of this Code.

(b)       If, after investigating a report of an alleged prohibited action by a director or executive officer, the Audit Committee determines that a violation of this Code has occurred, the Audit Committee will report such determination to the Board.

(c)         If, after investigating a report of an alleged prohibited action by any other person, the relevant supervisor or the [Chief Compliance Officer] determines that a violation of this Code has occurred, the supervisor or the [Chief Compliance Officer] will report such determination to the [General Counsel].

(d)         Upon receipt of a determination that there has been a violation of this Code, the Board or the [General Counsel] will take such preventative or disciplinary action as it deems appropriate, including, but not limited to, reassignment, demotion, dismissal and, in the event of criminal conduct or other serious violations of the law, notification of appropriate governmental authorities.

11.3          Waivers.

(a)          Each of the Board (in the case of a violation by a director or executive officer) and the [General Counsel] (in the case of a violation by any other person) may, in its discretion, waive any violation of this Code.

(b)        Any waiver for a director or an executive officer shall be disclosed as required by SEC and the rules of the securities exchange on which the Company’s securities are listed.

Adagio Medical Announces the Closing of the Business Combination with ARYA IV, Creating a Publicly Traded Company Focused on the Innovative Technologies for Treatment of Cardiac Arrhythmias

● Business combination transaction with ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV, a special purpose acquisition company sponsored by an affiliate of Perceptive Advisors, closed on July 31, 2024

● Publicly traded company renamed Adagio Medical Holdings, Inc., with Adagio Medical as an operating subsidiary

● Common stock expected to commence trading under ticker symbol “ADGM” on the Nasdaq Capital Market on August 1, 2024

LAGUNA HILLS, CA & NEW YORK, NY, July 31, 2024 – Adagio Medical, Inc. (“Adagio Medical”), a leading innovator in catheter ablation technologies for treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, announced today the completion of its business combination with ARYA Sciences Acquisition Corp IV (Nasdaq: ARYD; or “ARYA IV”), a special purpose acquisition company sponsored by an affiliate of Perceptive Advisors, LLC (“Perceptive Advisors”). Upon closing the transaction, the shares of common stock of the combined company, Adagio Medical Holdings, Inc., are expected to commence trading under the ticker symbol “ADGM” on the Nasdaq Capital Market on August 1, 2024, with Adagio Medical operating under its current management team as a subsidiary of the combined company.

The business combination was approved by the requisite number of ARYA IV’s shareholders on July 26, 2024. The transaction had been previously approved by the requisite number of Adagio Medical’s stockholders. In connection with the business combination, the combined company raised financing valued at approximately $84.2 million, which consisted of funds held in ARYA IV’s trust account, a concurrent equity and warrant private placement (including $29.5 million of bridge financing used by Adagio Medical prior to closing and funds from ARYA IV’s trust account not redeemed) led by, among others, affiliates of Perceptive Advisors, RA Capital Management and RTW Investments, and a concurrent convertible security financing (including $7 million of bridge financing used by Adagio Medical prior to closing) led by, among others, an institutional investor and an affiliate of Perceptive Advisors.

“Adagio Medical was founded in 2011 with the vision to improve ablation outcomes in patients with complex cardiac arrhythmias,” said Olav Bergheim, Chief Executive Officer of Adagio Medical and Adagio Medical Holdings, Inc. “Today’s transaction starts a new chapter in this journey. Our principal focus will be on commercialization of the vCLAS™ ultra-low temperature cryoablation (ULTC) catheter for treatment of ventricular tachycardia (VT) which we launched in Europe in Q2 this year, and on the execution of FULCRUM-VT Pivotal IDE trial which was recently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. We are grateful to all participants in this business combination for sharing our vision and for their trust in our technology and our team.”

“We are excited to partner with Adagio Medical to support the development of its innovative ablation technologies for the treatment of ventricular tachycardia and other cardiac arrhythmias,” said Adam Stone, Chief Investment Officer of Perceptive Advisors and CEO of ARYA IV. “We believe that their ability to create deep and durable cardiac lesions is poised to result in enhanced effectiveness and outcomes, as exemplified by the promising data from its European and Canadian CRYOCURE-VT trial, in a patient population that is underserved, and look forward to working with the Adagio Medical team as they advance their technology.”

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this press release (this “Press Release”) may be considered “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or future financial or operating performance of ARYA IV, Adagio Medical or New Adagio. For example, any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including the estimated or anticipated future results and benefits of the combined company following the Business Combination, including future opportunities for the combined company, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “future,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “propose,” “seek,” “should,” “strive,” “will,” or “would” or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which may be beyond the control of Adagio Medical or New Adagio and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Adagio Medical and its management and New Adagio and its management, as the case may be, are inherently uncertain. Each of Adagio Medical and New Adagio cautions you that these statements are based on a combination of facts and factors currently known and projections of the future, which are inherently uncertain. There are risks and uncertainties described in the definitive proxy/final prospectus relating to the Business Combination, which has been filed by New Adagio with the SEC, and described in other documents filed by ARYA IV or New Adagio from time to time with the SEC. These filings may identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Neither ARYA IV nor New Adagio can assure you that the forward-looking statements in this communication will prove to be accurate.

In addition, new risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it may not be possible to identify and accurately predict the potential impacts of any such risks and uncertainties that may arise in the future. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: (1) the outcome of any potential litigation, government or regulatory proceedings that may be instituted against Adagio Medical, New Adagio or others; (2) the ability to meet stock exchange listing standards following the consummation of the Business Combination; (3) the risk that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of Adagio Medical or New Adagio as a result of the announcement and consummation of the Business Combination; (4) Adagio Medical’s ability to remain compliant with the covenants of its existing debt, including any convertible or bridge financing notes; (5) New Adagio’s ability to remain compliant with the covenants of, and other obligations under, the senior secured convertible notes that were issued in connection with the closing of the Business Combination; (6) the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of New Adagio to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and suppliers and retain its management and key employees; (7) costs related to the Business Combination; (8) risks associated with changes in applicable laws or regulations and Adagio Medical’s or New Adagio’s international operations and operations in a regulated industry; (9) the possibility that Adagio Medical or New Adagio may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (10) Adagio Medical’s or New Adagio’s use of proceeds, post-Business Combination fully diluted equity value or fully diluted enterprise value, expected pro forma cash, expected cash runway or funding gap, estimates of expenses and profitability; and (11) the other risks and uncertainties set forth in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in other documents to be filed with the SEC by New Adagio. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. There may be additional risks that Adagio Medical or New Adagio does not presently know or that Adagio Medical or New Adagio currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and may materially differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of Adagio Medical and New Adagio. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which are based only on information currently available to Adagio Medical, New Adagio or ARYA IV.

Nothing in this Press Release should be regarded as a representation or warranty by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved, in any specified time frame, or at all. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made in this Press Release.
