Item 6.
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
Voting Agreement
Pursuant to the Voting Agreement, until such time as the Issuers Common Stock is traded on a national securities exchange, parties to the Voting Agreement have agreed to vote their shares in such a way as to ensure that one designee of each of the Issuers lead investors will serve on the board of directors of the Issuer for so long as the entity remains a significant investor, which is defined as an investor who initially purchased at least 270,000 shares of the Issuers Series A or Series B preferred stock and continues to hold at least 20% of such shares, including any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of such shares.
Amended and Restated Investors Rights Agreement
The Reporting Persons (other than Dr. Tilly) and certain other stockholders of the Issuer have entered into an Amended and Restated Investors Rights Agreement dated March 29, 2012 (the Investors Rights Agreement) with the Issuer. The Investors Rights Agreement provides these holders various rights, including the right to have the Issuer file registration statements covering their shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of their preferred stock or request that such shares be covered by a registration statement that the Issuer is otherwise filing, the right to receive certain financial information and the right to participate in future equity offerings.
Demand Registration Rights
Pursuant to the Investors Rights Agreement, at any time after (1) March 29, 2014, (2) 180 days after the effective date of the Issuers first underwritten firm commitment public offering of Common Stock under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act) or (3) 180 days after the first date on which the Issuers Common Stock commences trading on a national securities exchange, whichever is earliest, the holders of at least 20% of the
12
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of shares of the Issuers Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock may require that the Issuer file a registration statement with regard to such shares. The Issuer is not obligated to file a registration statement pursuant to this provision on more than two occasions.
Form S-3 Registration Rights
Pursuant to the Investors Rights Agreement, at any time after the Issuer becomes eligible to file a registration statement on Form S-3, subject to specified limitations set forth in the Investor Rights Agreement, the holders of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Issuers Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock may request that the Issuer register on Form S-3 all or a portion of the registrable shares so long as the total amount of the shares being registered has an aggregate offering price of at least $3,000,000, based on then current market price. The Issuer is not obligated to file a Form S-3 pursuant to this provision if it has effected two registrations upon such holders request within the 12 month period immediately preceding the date of such request.
Piggyback Registration Rights
Pursuant to the Investors Rights Agreement, if the Issuer proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act, other than pursuant to the demand registration rights described above, the holders of shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Issuers Series A preferred stock and Series B preferred stock will be entitled to notice of the registration and have the right to require the Issuer to register all or a portion of the registrable shares then held by them, subject to the Issuers right and the right of the Issuers underwriters to reduce the number of shares proposed to be registered in view of market conditions.
Expenses of Registration
The Issuer will pay all expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, related to demand registrations, Form S-3 registrations and piggyback registrations, including the reasonable fees of one special counsel of the investors.
Expiration of Registration Rights
The demand, Form S-3 and piggyback registration rights described above shall terminate upon the earlier of (1) the date such shares may be sold under Rule 144 or a similar Securities Act exemption without limitation during a three month period without registration or (2) the fifth anniversary of the date on which the Issuers Common Stock is first traded on a national securities exchange.
Lock-up Agreements
Form 10 Lock-Up
The Reporting Persons, as well as other holders of shares of the Issuers Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Issuers Series A preferred stock and each of the Issuers founders and officers and substantially all of its directors and current employees, have agreed not to, without the Issuers prior written consent, during the period beginning on July 17, 2012 and ending on the earlier of (1) in the case of the Issuers founders, directors and officers (including Dr. Dipp, Mr. Aldrich, Dr. Westphal, and Dr. Tilly), on the earlier of (a) 270 days following the date on which the Issuers Common Stock commences trading on a national securities exchange and (b) March 29, 2015, and (2) in the case of the holders of the Issuers Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Issuers Series A preferred stock (including the Fund), on the earlier of (a) 180 days following the date on which the Issuers Common Stock commences trading on a national securities exchange and (b) March 29, 2014:

IPO Lock-Up
The Reporting Persons, as well as other holders of certain shares of the Issuers Common Stock, have agreed that, if the Issuer registers shares of its capital stock in an initial firm commitment underwritten public offering, they will not, without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter, during the period beginning on the date of the final prospectus for such registration statement and ending on a date specified by the Issuer and the managing underwriter (not to exceed 180 days thereafter with limited exceptions):
·
lend, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right, or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of the Issuers Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable (directly or indirectly) for shares of the Issuers Common Stock; or
·
enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such securities.
These lock-up provisions will not apply to, among other things, shares of Common Stock acquired in such offering or in open market transactions after such offering.
Restricted Stock Agreements
Dr. Dipp, Mr. Aldrich, Dr. Westphal and Dr. Tilly are each party to a restricted stock agreement with the Issuer, pursuant to which the shares of the Issuers Common Stock that each such Reporting Person acquired in July 2011 are subject to a vesting schedule and other restrictions on transfer and otherwise.
