and, with respect to any Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any Proceeding, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption

person’s conduct was unlawful.
|
| B. |
The Corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, indemnify and hold harmless any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any

or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise or employee benefit plan, against reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements,
judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes, damages, claims and penalties 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 Corporation; except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any Proceeding as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the
Corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or the court in which such Proceeding 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.
|
| C. |
Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a director or officer in defending any Proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding upon receipt
of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Eighth Article. Such expenses
(including attorneys’ fees) incurred by former directors and officers or other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the Corporation deems appropriate.
|
| D. |
The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Eighth Article shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or
advancement of expenses may be entitled under this Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, 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, it being the policy of the Corporation that indemnification of the persons specified in this Eighth Article shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law.
|
| E. |
Any repeal or modification of this Eighth Article by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses of a director,

|
| F. |
Notwithstanding that a Covered Person may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by other persons (collectively, the “Other Indemnitors”), with
respect to the rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance set forth herein, the Corporation: (i) shall be the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to Covered Persons are primary and any obligation of the
Other Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by Covered Persons are secondary); and (ii) shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by Covered Persons
and shall be liable for the full amount of all liabilities, without regard to any rights Covered Persons may have against any of the Other Indemnitors. No advancement or payment by the Other Indemnitors on behalf of Covered Persons with
respect to any claim for which Covered Persons have sought indemnification from the Corporation shall affect the immediately preceding sentence, and the Other Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent
of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of Covered Persons against the Corporation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the obligations of the Corporation under this Eighth Article shall only apply to
Covered Persons in their capacity as Covered Persons.

dividends since the most recent Dividend Payment Date with respect to such share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock as of the date of such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company. Holders shall
not be entitled to any further payments in the event of any such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company after receiving in full what is expressly provided for in this Section 5(a), and after such receipt will have no right or claim to any of the Company’s remaining assets.
(b) Partial Payment. If, in connection with any distribution described in Section 5(a), the assets of the Company or proceeds
therefrom are not sufficient to pay in full the aggregate liquidating distributions required to be paid pursuant to Section 5(a) to all Holders and the liquidating distributions
payable to all holders of any Parity Stock, then the amounts distributed to the Holders and to the holders of all such Parity Stock shall be paid pro rata in accordance
with the respective aggregate liquidating distributions to which they would otherwise be entitled if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full.
(c) Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets Not Liquidation. For purposes of this Section 5, the sale, conveyance, exchange or
transfer (for cash, shares of stock, securities or other consideration) of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Company shall not be deemed a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs
of the Company, nor shall the merger, consolidation, statutory exchange or any other business combination transaction of the Company into or with any other Person or the merger, consolidation, statutory exchange or any other business
combination transaction of any other Person into or with the Company be deemed to be a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6, upon the consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company with another Person in which the Company is not the surviving entity, any Series A-1 Preferred Stock that is outstanding at such
time (including any Unredeemed Shares) shall be converted into or exchanged for preference securities of the surviving or resulting entity having substantially the same rights, powers, limitations and restrictions of the Series A-1 Preferred
Stock immediately prior to such consummation.
SECTION 6. Redemption upon a Change of Control.
(a) Change of Control Redemption. Subject to Section 6(d), upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, (i) the Company (or its
successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) shall have the right, but not the obligation, to redeem in cash any or all of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock at the then-applicable Redemption Price
(which for purposes of this Section 6 shall be calculated by replacing references to “Redemption Date” with “date of consummation of the Change of Control” in the definition of
“Redemption Price”); provided, that any such optional redemption by the Company of any or all of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock must occur on a pro rata basis
with an optional redemption by the Company of outstanding shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6 of the Certificate of Designations for the Series A-2 Preferred Stock, and (ii) each Holder will have the right, but not the
obligation, to require the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) to redeem in cash any or all of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock owned by such Holder at the then-applicable
Redemption Price (which for purposes of this Section 6 shall be calculated by replacing references to “Redemption Date” with “date of consummation of the Change of Control” in the
definition of “Redemption Price”).
(b) Change of Control Notice. On or before the twentieth (20th) Business Day prior to the date on which the Company anticipates consummating a Change of Control (or, if later, promptly after
the Company discovers that a Change of Control may occur), a written notice (a “Change of Control Notice”) shall be sent by or on behalf of the Company to each Holder at its address as
it appears in the records of the Company. The Change of Control Notice shall include: (i) a description of the material terms and conditions of the Change of Control; (ii) the date on which the Change of Control is anticipated to be
consummated; (iii) whether the Company is exercising its right under Section 6(a)(i) to redeem any or all of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock and, if so, the
number of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock to be redeemed from such Holder; (iii) the place at which shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be redeemed; and (iv) the applicable Redemption Price. If, or to the extent that, the Company
(or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) is not exercising its rights pursuant to Section 6(a)(i) to redeem the outstanding shares of Series A-1
Preferred Stock, the Holder may exercise its right pursuant to Section 6(a)(ii) to require the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control)
to redeem any or all of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock owned by such Holder by delivering a written notice to the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) (the “Election Notice”) stating that the Holder is exercising its right to require the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) to redeem any or all
of its outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock and including wire transfer instructions for the payment of the Redemption Price, which Election Notice shall be irrevocable so long as the economic terms and material other terms and
conditions of the Change of Control remain unchanged from those set forth in the applicable Change of Control Notice. Such Election Notice must be delivered on or prior to the later of (x) five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which the
Company anticipates consummating a Change of Control (as specified in the Change of Control Notice) and (y) five (5) Business Days after the Holder’s receipt of the Change of Control Notice (such period, the “Election Period”). In the event a Holder timely receives a Change of Control Notice in accordance with this Section 6(b) and fails to deliver the Election
Notice within the applicable Election Period, such Holder shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived its right to require the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) to redeem any or all of its
outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock under this Section 6; provided, that if there is any change to the
economic terms or material other terms and conditions of the Change of Control as compared to those set forth in the applicable Change of Control Notice, the Company shall deliver another Change of Control Notice and commence a new Election
Period with respect thereto in accordance with this Section 6 (which shall apply mutatis mutandis).
(c) Delivery of Redemption Price. If either the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) or a Holder has exercised its right to redeem, or
require redemption of, any outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6(a), then following the consummation of a Change of Control and on or about the same
date thereof, subject to Section 6(d), the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) shall deliver or cause to be delivered to each Holder
by wire transfer of immediately available funds in cash the applicable Redemption Price with respect to each of such Holder’s shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock so redeemed. In case of any redemption at the option of the Company (or its
successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) of part but not all of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall be redeemed by the
Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) from the Holders pro rata based on the number of shares of Series A-1 Preferred
Stock held by each Holder. If the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock are certificated, and fewer than all the shares represented by any single certificate are redeemed, then a new certificate shall be issued representing the Unredeemed
Shares without charge to the Holder thereof. No action on the part of the Holder shall be required to receive the applicable Redemption Price, other than to surrender to the Transfer Agent in accordance with the instructions delivered pursuant
to the Change of Control Notice the certificates representing the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock to be redeemed by the Company or lost stock affidavits therefor (together with any customary indemnity that may be required by the Transfer
Agent and the Company), to the extent applicable, or book entry statements evidencing such shares, if uncertificated, as a condition to receiving the applicable Redemption Price; provided
that in no event shall any Holder, in connection with any such redemption, be required to agree to any restrictive covenants.
(d) Partial Redemption. If Delaware law (or other applicable law) prohibits the Company from redeeming any or all of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock required or sought to be redeemed
pursuant to this Section 6, the Company shall not be entitled to elect to redeem any such shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6(a)(i) and, with respect to any shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock with respect to which Holders have exercised their redemption rights pursuant to Section
6(a)(ii), the Company shall ratably redeem the maximum number of such shares that it may redeem consistent with such law, and the Company shall redeem the remaining shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock submitted for redemption as
soon as it may lawfully do so under such law. The inability of the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) to pay the Redemption Price due to not having sufficient funds legally available therefor
shall not relieve the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) from its obligation to effect the redemption in full when, as and if permitted by applicable law.
(e) Effect of Redemption. Effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date for any shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock redeemed pursuant to this Section 6, Dividends shall no longer accrue or be declared on any such shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, such shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall cease to be outstanding, and
all rights (except to receive the applicable Redemption Price as described herein) with respect to such shares shall cease and terminate, notwithstanding that any certificate of any share called for redemption has not been surrendered for
cancellation.
(f) Status of Redeemed Shares. Shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock redeemed in accordance with this Section 6 shall return to the
status of and constitute authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, without classification as to series until such shares are once more classified as a particular series by the Board pursuant to the provisions of the Certificate.
(g) Change of Control Agreement. The Company shall not enter into any agreement for a transaction constituting a Change of Control unless (i) such agreement provides for or does not prevent
(as applicable) the exercise by the Holders of their rights to require the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) to redeem their shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock in a manner that is
consistent with and gives effect to this Section 6, and (ii) the acquiring or surviving Person in such Change of Control represents or covenants, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Board acting in good faith, that at the closing of such Change of Control such Person shall have sufficient funds (which may include, without limitation, cash and cash equivalents on the Company’s balance sheet, the proceeds
of any debt or equity financing, available lines of credit or uncalled capital commitments) to consummate such Change of Control and the payment of the applicable Redemption Price in respect of all outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred
Stock.

of law or otherwise), by amendment, modification, repeal, restatement, supplementation, termination or waiver of, or consent to any departure by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from, any provision of the Certificate of Designations or
through any Change of Control or any other reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, agreement or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or
performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed under the Certificate of Designations.
(b) In addition to
and without limiting the foregoing, the vote or consent of the Holders of at least a majority of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock outstanding at such time, voting together as a single class, given in person or by proxy, either in
writing without a meeting or by vote at any meeting called for such purpose, will be required to, whether by amendment, merger, consolidation, operation of Law or otherwise, and whether or not such approval is required pursuant to the DGCL, (i)
amend, alter, modify, repeal or waive any provision of the Certificate (including the Certificate of Designations and the Certificate of Designations for the Series A-2 Preferred Stock) or Bylaws in a manner that materially and adversely
affects the rights, preferences, privileges or powers of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock or any Holder thereof in its capacity as such as compared to those of the Series A-2 Preferred Stock or any holder thereof in its capacity as such, (ii)
amend, alter, modify, repeal or waive this Section 11(b) or Sections 12 or 17
of the Certificate of Designations, or (iii) agree or commit to do or take any action described in this Section 11(b).
(c) Class Voting. Each Holder will have one vote per share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock on any matter on which Holders of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock are entitled to vote, whether
at a meeting or by written consent.
(d) Written Consents. The Holders of Series A-1 Preferred Stock may take action or consent to any action without a meeting by delivering a consent in writing or by electronic transmission of
the Holders of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock entitled to cast not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize, take or consent to such action at a meeting of such stockholders. The Holders of Series A-1
Preferred Stock shall not have the right to vote such shares on matters other than those expressly set forth in the Certificate of Designations or as otherwise required by law.
SECTION 12. Minimum Return. Following the second anniversary of the Initial Closing Date, if (a) a redemption of any of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock occurs pursuant to Section 6(a)(i) or Section 6(a)(ii) or (b) an Optional Redemption occurs (the Redemption Date applicable to either clause (a) or (b) referred to herein as an “Applicable Redemption Date”), then the Company shall pay to each Holder on the Applicable Redemption Date, in cash, an amount equal to the Incremental Amount for each share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock held
by such Holder on the Applicable Redemption Date that is so redeemed.
SECTION 13. Transfer Agent, Conversion Agent, Registrar and Paying Agent. The duly appointed Transfer Agent and paying agent for the Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be the Company. The Company may,
in its sole discretion, appoint any other Person to serve as Transfer Agent or paying agent for the Series A-1 Preferred Stock and thereafter may remove or replace such other Person at any time. Upon any such appointment or removal, the
Company shall send notice thereof to the Holders.
SECTION 14. Replacement Certificates. If physical certificates evidencing the Series A-1 Preferred Stock are issued, then the Company shall replace any mutilated certificate at the Holder’s expense
upon surrender of that certificate to the Transfer Agent. The Company shall replace certificates that become destroyed, stolen or lost at the Holder’s expense upon delivery to the Company and the Transfer Agent of satisfactory evidence that
the certificate has been destroyed, stolen or lost, together with any indemnity that may be required by the Transfer Agent and the Company.
SECTION 15. Taxes.
(a) Withholding. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable with respect to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock
any taxes required to be so deducted and withheld under applicable law. To the extent that any amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Entity, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all
purposes of the Certificate of Designations as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. The Company shall
cooperate in good faith with the Holders to minimize or eliminate any such withholding or deduction, including by giving the Holders an opportunity to provide additional information or to apply for an exemption from, or a reduced rate of,
withholding.
(b) Tax Treatment. The Company and the Holders agree that (i) it is intended that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (A) the mere accrual of dividends with respect to the Series A-1
Preferred Stock shall not be treated as a dividend, unless and until such dividends are declared and paid in cash, (B) the Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be treated as stock that is “preferred stock” within the meaning of Section 305 of the
Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, (C) Holders will be treated as receiving constructive distributions from the Company with respect to shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock over the time period beginning on the
Issuance Date of such shares and ending on the Mandatory Redemption Date under Section 305(c) of the Code in the aggregate amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the Liquidation Preference on the Issuance Date of such shares over (y) the
original purchase price for such shares (which amount shall be taken into account over such time period in accordance with the principles described in Section 305(c)(3) of the Code), and (D) any Incremental Amount received by a Holder shall be
treated as an additional amount received by a Holder in exchange for the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock redeemed in the relevant redemption, and (ii) except to the extent otherwise required by a “determination” within the meaning of
Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local or non-U.S. law), neither the Company nor any Holder shall take any position inconsistent with such treatment on any tax return, in any tax proceeding or otherwise.
(c) Transfer Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all documentary, stamp and similar issue or transfer tax (“Transfer Taxes”) due
on the issue of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock or certificates representing such shares. However, the Company shall not be required to pay any Transfer Tax that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery (or any transfer involved
in the issue or delivery) of any Series A-1 Preferred Stock to a beneficial owner other than the beneficial owner of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock immediately prior to the event pursuant to which such issue or delivery is required, and no such
issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issue or delivery has paid to the Company the amount of any such Transfer Tax or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such Transfer Tax has been paid
or is not payable.
SECTION 16. Rights and Remedies of Holders.
(a) The various
provisions set forth under the Certificate of Designations and the Series A-1 Preferred Stock are for the benefit of the Holders. The Holder of any share of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock at the time outstanding may protect and enforce the
rights of such Holder under the Series A-1 Preferred Stock and the Certificate of Designations by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in the
Series A-1 Preferred Stock, or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise. Without limitation of the foregoing, the
Holders would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of the Certificate of Designations are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, the Holders will be entitled to an
injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of the Certificate of Designations and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Certificate of Designation, including by one or more actions for specific
performance, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled, at law or in equity. The Company waives any defense that a remedy at law is adequate and any requirement to prove special damages, post bond or provide similar
security in connection with actions instituted for injunctive relief or specific performance of the Certificate of Designations.
(b) Except as
expressly set forth herein, all remedies available under the Certificate of Designations, at law, in equity or otherwise, will be deemed cumulative and not alternative or exclusive of other remedies. The exercise by any Holder of a particular
remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.
SECTION 17. Conversion.
(a) Each share of
Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall automatically, without any further action by the Company or the Holder thereof, be converted into one (1) share of Series A-2 Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of a Transfer of such share of Series A-1
Preferred Stock by the Holder to any Person other than a Permitted Transferee of such Holder. All of the terms and conditions of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Preferred Stock shall be identical in all material respects, except
with respect to this Section 17 and Section 12 of the Certificate of Designations.
(b) In the event of
and upon a conversion of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock into shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 17(a), such conversion shall be deemed to have been made, as applicable, at the time that the Transfer of shares
occurred and all rights of the Holders of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall cease and the Person or Persons in whose names or names the shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock are to be issued shall be treated for all purposes as having become the
record holder or holders of such shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock.
(c) The Company will
at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 17, such
number of shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock as will from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock into shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock.
(d) If the Company
in any manner subdivides or combines the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock or Series A-2 Preferred Stock, then the outstanding shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock or Series A-1 Preferred Stock, respectively, will be subdivided
or combined in the same proportion and manner.
SECTION 18. Notices. All notices referred to herein shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specified herein, all notices hereunder shall be deemed to have been given upon the earlier of receipt
thereof or three (3) Business Days after the mailing thereof if sent by registered or certified mail with postage prepaid, addressed: (i) if to the Company, to its office at 3 Ravinia Drive, Floor 5, Atlanta, GA 30346, (ii) if to any Holder,
to such Holder at the address and/or electronic mail address of such Holder as listed in the stock record books of the Company (which, for all purposes hereunder, may include the records of the Transfer Agent) or (iii) to such other address as
the Company or any such Holder, as the case may be, shall have designated by notice similarly given.
SECTION 19. Facts Ascertainable. When the terms of the Certificate of Designations refer to a specific agreement or other document to determine the meaning or operation of a provision hereof, the
Secretary of the Company shall maintain a copy of such agreement or document at the principal executive offices of the Company and a copy thereof shall be provided free of charge to any Holder who makes a request therefor. The Secretary of the
Company shall also maintain a written record of the Issuance Date, the number of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock issued to a Holder and the date of each such issuance, the Liquidation Preference and Accrued Dividends per share of Series
A-1 Preferred Stock and the Dividend Rate in effect from time to time and shall furnish such written record free of charge to any Holder who makes a request therefor.
SECTION 20. Waiver; Amendment. Notwithstanding any provision in the Certificate of Designations to the contrary, (a) any provision contained herein and any right of the Holders of Series A-1
Preferred Stock granted hereunder may be waived as to all shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock (and the Holders thereof) upon the written consent of the Holders of two-thirds of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock then outstanding; provided that any amendment, modification or waiver that, by its terms, would adversely and uniquely affect a Holder relative to other Holders without similarly affecting all of Holders
shall require the prior written consent of such adversely and uniquely affected Holder and (b) any amendment hereto (but not any waiver hereunder) shall require the affirmative vote of a majority of the Board of Directors. Any amendment,
modification, repeal, restatement, supplementation, termination or waiver of, or consent to any departure by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from, the Certificate of Designations shall be ultra vires, null and void ab initio and of no force or effect without the Company having obtained the affirmative vote or consent of the
Holders or holders, as applicable, as required by the applicable provisions of the Certificate of Designations.
SECTION 21. Severability. If any term of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock set forth herein is invalid, unlawful or incapable of being enforced by reason of any rule of law or public policy, then all
other terms set forth herein that can be given effect without the invalid, unlawful or unenforceable term will, nevertheless, remain in full force and effect, and no term herein set forth will be deemed dependent upon any other such term unless
so expressed herein.
SECTION 22. Interpretation. When a reference is made in the Certificate of Designations to an Article, Section, Exhibit or Schedule, such reference shall be to an Article of, a Section of, or an
Exhibit or Schedule to the Certificate of Designations unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in the Certificate of Designations, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without
limitation.” The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in the Certificate of Designations shall refer to the Certificate of Designations as a whole and not to any particular provision of the Certificate
of Designations unless the context requires otherwise. The words “date hereof” when used in the Certificate of Designations shall refer to November 9, 2023. The terms “or,” “any” and “either” are not exclusive. 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.” The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” The definitions
contained in the Certificate of Designations are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. Any agreement, instrument or statute defined
or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means, unless otherwise specified, such agreement, instrument or statute as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of
agreements or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, references to the Credit Agreement shall not include any amendments, modifications or supplements after November 9, 2023. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, all
references to “dollars” or “$” shall refer to the lawful money of the United States. Unless otherwise set forth herein, when calculating the period of time between which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken
pursuant to the Certificate of Designations, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded (and unless otherwise required by law, if the last day of such period is not a Business Day, the period in question
shall end on the next succeeding Business Day).
SECTION 23. No Other Rights. Except as set forth in the Certificate, the Bylaws, the Investment Agreement or the Investor Rights Agreement (as defined in the Investment Agreement) or as otherwise
required by law or any contract entered into by the Company and any Holder after the date hereof, the Holders will have no rights or preferences in respect of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock except as provided in the Certificate of Designations.
