3.3

Capitalization. The Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “10-K”), and all other reports filed by the Company pursuant to the 1934 Act since the filing of the 10-K and prior to the date hereof (collectively, the “SEC Filings”) set forth (a) the authorized capital stock of the Company; (b) the number of shares of capital stock issuable pursuant to the Company’s stock plans; and (c) the number of shares of capital stock issuable and reserved for issuance pursuant to securities (other than the Shares) exercisable for, or convertible into, or exchangeable for any shares of capital stock of the Company, in each case as of the dates presented.

The issuance and sale of the Shares hereunder will not obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other securities to any other Person (other than the Investor) and will not result in the adjustment of the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price of any outstanding security. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries owns or holds the right to acquire any stock, partnership, interest, joint venture interest or other equity ownership interest in any Person, and, except as disclosed in the SEC

6.5

For as long as the Investor or its Affiliates beneficially owns any Shares, to the extent it shall be required to do so under the 1934 Act, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to timely file the reports required to be filed by it under the 1934 Act or the 1933 Act (including the reports under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the 1934 Act referred to in subparagraph (c)(1) of Rule 144), and shall take such further necessary action as the Investor may reasonably request consistent with legal requirements and customary practice in connection with the removal of any restrictive legend on the Shares being sold, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such holder to sell the Shares without registration under the 1933 Act within the limitations of the exemption provided by Rule 144.

6.6

Registration Rights.

(a)

Filing of Registration Statement.

(i)

The Company shall prepare, and, as soon as practicable, but no later than 30 days following the Closing Date (the “Initial Filing Date”), file a registration statement on Form S-3 (or if Form S-3 is not available to register the Shares, on such other form

of registration statement as is then available to effect a registration for resale of the Shares) (the “Registration Statement”) to register the Shares for resale (the “Registrable Securities”), and shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable, but in no event later than the earlier of (i) sixty (60) Business Days after the Initial Filing Date and (ii) five (5) Business Days after the SEC has notified the Company that it will not review, or has completed its review of, the Registration Statement, in each case, unless the Investor agrees in writing to extend such deadline, and to have the Registration Statement remain continuously effective until the earlier of (i) such time as all of the Registrable Securities have been sold by the Investor pursuant to the Registration Statement or Rule 144 and (ii) all of the Registrable Securities are eligible to be sold by the Investor pursuant to Rule 144 without limitation, restriction or condition (including any current public information requirement) thereunder.

(ii)

At least ten (10) Business Days prior to the filing of the Registration Statement, the Company shall notify the Investor in writing of the information, if any, the Company requires from the Investor with respect to the 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 that the Investor shall furnish to the Company such information regarding the Investor, the Registrable Securities held by the Investor and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by the Investor, 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 and provide such information and documents to the Company at least five (5) Business Days prior to the filing of the Registration Statement.

(iii)

The Company shall provide the Investor and its legal counsel an opportunity, not less than two (2) Business Days, to review and comment on the Registration Statement or any supplement or amendment thereto (except for reports and filings incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement pursuant to the requirements of such Registration Statement) and on any written responses to written correspondence from the SEC with respect to the Registration Statement. The Company shall also promptly notify the Investor (A) when a prospectus, prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed with respect to the Registration Statement (other than an annual report on Form 10-K), (B) of any correspondence from the SEC with respect to the Registration Statement (and provide to the Investor copies of any written correspondence), (C) when the SEC has informed the Company that it will not review, or has completed its review of, the Registration Statement or any supplement or amendment thereto, (D) when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective and (E) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement. In no event shall the Company be permitted to name the Investor as an “underwriter” without the prior written consent of the Investor.

(iv)

The Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of (i) the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness with respect to the Registration Statement or (ii) the happening of an event as a result of which the prospectus and the Registration Statement, as then in effect, include an 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the

Investor will immediately discontinue its disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement until the Investor’s receipt of copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus or Registration Statement or receipt of notice that no supplement or amendment is required. In no event shall such notice contain any material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. With respect to clause (i), the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of such stop order or suspension at the earliest possible time. With respect to clause (ii), the Company shall promptly prepare and file with the SEC a supplement or amendment to the Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and promptly deliver a copy of such supplement or amendment to the Investor.

(v)

The Company shall furnish to the Investor such number of copies of prospectuses and such other documents as the Investor may reasonably request, in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of all or any of the Registrable Securities by the Investor, including for purposes of satisfying any prospectus delivery requirements of the 1933 Act.

(b)

Expenses. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses attendant to registering the Registrable Securities (except any underwriters’ discounts and commissions and fees and expenses of any of the Investor’s own professionals). The Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to qualify to register the Registrable Securities in such states as are reasonably requested by the Investor; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be required to register Registrable Securities in a state in which such registration would cause the Company to be obligated to register or license to do business in such state.

(c)

Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Investor and its officers, directors, employees, agents, shareholders, members, partners, legal counsel and accountants (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title), and each person, if any, who controls each of the foregoing within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20(a) of the 1934 Act, against all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any claim whatsoever incurred by the indemnified party in any action or proceeding between the indemnitor and indemnified party or between the indemnified party and any third party or otherwise to which any of them may become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or any other statute or at common law or otherwise under laws of foreign countries, arising from such Registration Statement or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, contained in (i) any preliminary prospectus, Registration Statement or prospectus (as from time to time each may be amended and supplemented); (ii) in any post-effective amendment or amendments or any new Registration Statement and prospectus in which is included the Registrable Securities; or (iii) any application or other document or written communication (collectively called “application”) executed by the Company or based upon written information furnished by the Company in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Registrable Securities under the securities laws thereof or filed with the SEC, any state securities commission or agency, or any securities

exchange; or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of 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; unless such statement or omission is made in reliance upon, and in strict conformity with, written information furnished to the Company with respect to the Investor expressly for use in a preliminary prospectus, Registration Statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or in any application, as the case may be. The Company agrees promptly to notify the Investor of the commencement of any litigation proceedings against the Company or any of its officers, directors or controlling persons in connection with the issue and sale or resale of the Registrable Securities or in connection with any such Registration Statement or prospectus.

Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States.

7.1

Information and Governance Rights. The Investor intends for its investment in the Company to be “solely for the purpose of passive investment” within the meaning of the DPA, and therefore the Investor and the Company agree that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Transaction Documents, including the Service Agreement, the Investor shall only have the right to receive from the Company financial information regarding the performance of the Company, and shall not be afforded any of the following, each within the meaning of the DPA:

(a)

“control” of the Company, or any subsidiary thereof;

(b)

access to any “material nonpublic technical information” in the possession of the Company, or any subsidiary thereof;

(c)

membership or observer rights on, or the right to nominate an individual to a position on, the board of directors or equivalent governing body of the Company, or any subsidiary thereof; or

(d)

any “involvement,” other than through the voting of shares, in “substantive decisionmaking” by the Company, or any subsidiary thereof, regarding: (i) the use, development, acquisition, safekeeping, or release of “sensitive personal data” of U.S. citizens maintained or collected by the Company, or any subsidiary thereof; (ii) the use, development, acquisition, or release of any “critical technology;” or (iii) the management, operation, manufacture, or supply of “covered investment critical infrastructure.”

To the extent that any term in the Transaction Documents, including the Service Agreement, would afford any of the foregoing to the Investor contrary to the intent of the Investor and the Company as expressed herein, such term shall have no effect.

7.2

Information and Inspection Rights. For the avoidance of doubt, should the Investor be afforded any information and/or inspection rights pursuant to the Transaction Documents, such rights shall not include access to material nonpublic technical information in the possession of the Company, or any subsidiary thereof, nor any involvement in substantive

decisionmaking with respect to the matters listed in Section 7.1(d) hereof.

7.3

The Company shall have and shall exercise the right to (a) exclude the Investor from access to any information, facilities, or properties of the Company or any its subsidiaries, and (b) prohibit the Investor from engaging in discussions and communications with personnel of the Company, or any subsidiary thereof, if the Company determines in its sole discretion that such exclusion is necessary or appropriate to enforce the limitations in this Section 7.

8.2

Indemnification of the Investor.

If any action shall be brought against any Investor Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Investor Party shall promptly notify the Company in writing, and the Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Investor Party. Any Investor Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Investor Party except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of counsel,

a material conflict on any material issue between the position of the Company and the position of such Investor Party, in which case the Company shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate counsel. The Company will not be liable to any Investor Party under this Agreement (y) for any settlement by an Investor Party effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (z) to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to any Investor Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Investor Party in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents. The indemnification required by this Section 8.2 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or are incurred. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to any cause of action or similar right of any Investor Party against the Company or others and any liabilities the Company may be subject to pursuant to law.

8.3

Indemnification of the Company. Subject to the provisions of this Section 8.3, the Investor will indemnify and hold the Company and its directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees and agents (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title), each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act and Section 20 of the 1934 Act), and the directors, officers, shareholders, agents, members, partners or employees (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling persons (each, a “Company Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation that any such Company Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Investor in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents; provided, however, in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 8.3 exceed the purchase price paid by the Investor. If any action shall be brought against any Company Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Company Party shall promptly notify the Investor in writing, and the Investor shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of their own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Company Party. Any Company Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Company Party except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Investor in writing, (ii) the Investor has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of counsel, a material conflict on any material issue between the position of the applicable Investor(s) and the position of such Company Party, in which case the applicable Investor(s) shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate counsel. No Investor will be liable to any Company Party under this Agreement (y) for any settlement by a Company Party effected without the Investor’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (z) to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to any

Company Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Company Party in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents. The indemnification required by this Section 8.3 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or are incurred.
