Introductory Note

On August 21, 2026, Martin

Marietta Materials, Inc. (“Martin Marietta” or the “Company”) consummated the previously announced

acquisition (the “Transaction”) of Lhoist North America, Inc. (“LNA”) from LNA Holding SRL (“LNA

Holding”), a société à responsabilité limitée organized under the laws of Belgium,

pursuant to the terms of that certain Securities Sale Agreement, dated June 27, 2026 (the “SSA”), by and between

the Company and LNA Holding. The events described in this Current Report on Form 8-K took place in connection with the closing of

the Transaction (the “Closing”).

Pursuant to the terms and

conditions of the SSA, Martin Marietta acquired all of the outstanding equity interests in LNA in exchange for (i) approximately $7 billion

in cash (as adjusted in accordance with the SSA) and (ii) 10,953,543 newly-issued shares of Martin Marietta common stock, par value $0.01

per share (the “Consideration Shares”), with a value of $6.5 billion based on the volume-weighted average trading price

of Martin Marietta common stock for the 15 trading days ended on June 26, 2026.

The foregoing description

of the SSA is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the SSA, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current

Report on Form 8-K filed by Martin Marietta with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 29,

2026, and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1.01 Entry into

a Material Definitive Agreement.

Shareholders

Agreement

As contemplated by the SSA,

at the Closing, Martin Marietta entered into a shareholders agreement (the “Shareholders Agreement”) with LNA Holding

and, solely for the purposes of the standstill provisions set forth therein, Financière de Gestions Internationales, a société

en commandite par actions organized under the laws of Luxembourg (“FGI”). Under the Shareholders Agreement, LNA

Holding and its affiliates will be subject to a lock-up period with respect to the Consideration Shares, with 50% of such shares released

from the lock-up on the 12-month anniversary of the Closing and the remaining 50% of such shares released from the lock-up on the 24-month

anniversary of the Closing.

The Shareholders Agreement

also provides that the Board of Directors of Martin Marietta (the “Board”) will take such actions as are necessary

to increase the size of the Board from ten to eleven directors and LNA Holding will have the right to designate one director to the Board

and to appoint one non-voting Board observer. These designation rights are subject to graduated reduction and termination based on LNA

Holding’s beneficial ownership of Martin Marietta common stock: LNA Holding may designate one director and one observer for so long

as it beneficially owns at least 7,102,033 number of shares of Martin Marietta common stock (equal to 10% of the issued and outstanding

Martin Marietta common stock as of the Closing); this right is reduced to one director if such ownership falls below 10% but remains at

or above 5,326,525 shares of Martin Marietta common stock (equal to 7.5% of the issued and outstanding Martin Marietta common stock as

of the Closing); and all designation and observer rights terminate if such ownership falls below 5,326,525 shares of Martin Marietta common

stock (equal to 7.5% of the issued and outstanding Martin Marietta common stock as of the Closing). Furthermore, subject to certain exceptions,

in the event LNA Holding and its affiliates fail to vote all shares of Martin Marietta common stock beneficially owned by them in accordance

with the recommendation of the Board and in favor of persons nominated and recommended to serve as directors by the Board, all of LNA

Holding’s designation rights will terminate.

In addition, FGI and LNA Holding

and their affiliates have agreed to be subject to a customary standstill obligation, including a restriction on acquiring shares in excess

of 12,783,660 shares of Martin Marietta common stock (equal to 18% of the issued and outstanding Martin Marietta common stock as of the

Closing), which will be effective until the earlier of (a) 15 months after the date on which both (i) no LNA Holding designee sits on

the Board and (ii) LNA Holding has irrevocably waived or no longer has any right to designate a director or observer and (b) the date

on which LNA Holding holds fewer than 5,326,525 shares of Martin Marietta common stock (equal to 7.5% of the issued and outstanding Martin

Marietta common stock as of the Closing).

The foregoing description

of the Shareholders Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Shareholders

Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Registration

Rights Agreement

As contemplated by the SSA,

at the Closing, Martin Marietta entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”)

with LNA Holding in respect of the Consideration Shares. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, Martin Marietta agreed to file,

no later than 60 days prior to the first anniversary of the Closing (and subject to the lock-up restrictions in the Shareholders Agreement),

a shelf registration statement covering the resale of the Consideration Shares. The Registration Rights Agreement also provides for certain

demand and piggyback registration rights for LNA Holding, subject to minimum offering sizes in certain cases, customary underwriter cutbacks,

Martin Marietta blackout/suspension rights, and provides for mutual indemnification rights and other customary requirements and conditions.

The foregoing description

of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of

the Registration Rights Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain

Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

Pursuant to the Shareholders

Agreement, on August 21, 2026, the Board increased its size from ten to eleven directors and appointed Mr. Philipp Niemann, effective

as of August 21, 2026, to fill the newly-created directorship. Mr. Niemann will serve until Martin Marietta’s 2027 Annual

2022, Mr. Niemann held several other positions at Lhoist, which he joined in 2013.

in Martin Marietta’s non-employee director compensation program, which currently provides all non-employee directors with an annual

award of restricted stock units under the non-employee director compensation program was effective upon his appointment to the Board.

compensation program, are consistent with those described in Martin Marietta’s proxy statement for its 2026 annual meeting of shareholders.

so, executes a customary joinder to this Agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company, in which such Permitted

Transferee agrees to be a “Shareholder Party” for all purposes of this Agreement;

(ii)       Transfers

in connection with (A) any Merger Transaction, Sale Transaction or third party tender or exchange offer involving the Common Stock that

has been approved by the Board (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if the applicable Shareholder Party does Transfer Lock-Up Shares to a

third party in connection with such tender or exchange offer, the restrictions set forth in this Section 2.1 shall not apply

to such third party with respect to such shares) or (B) any tender or exchange offer by the Company;

(iii)       Transfers

that have been approved in writing by the Board (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if the applicable Shareholder Party does Transfer Lock-Up

Shares to a third party with the Board’s written approval, the restrictions set forth in this Section 2.1 shall not

apply to such third party with respect to such shares);

(iv)       Transfers

in connection with bona fide pledges to (or deposits with) nationally recognized financial institutions as collateral for margin loans

or other credit facilities; provided that (A) the Transferor continues to exercise voting control over such pledged shares of Common

Stock at all times prior to any pledgee taking ownership of the relevant Lock-Up Shares and (B) as a condition to any pledgee’s

ability to take ownership of the relevant Lock-Up Shares, such pledgee shall execute a customary joinder to this Agreement, in form and

substance reasonably acceptable to the Company, in which such Permitted Transferee agrees to be a “Shareholder Party” for

all purposes of this Agreement;

(v)       inheritance

or estate planning or charitable Transfers; provided that as a condition to such Transfer, the Transferee (A) executes a customary

joinder to this Agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company, in which such Transferee agrees to be a “Shareholder

Party” for all purposes of this Agreement or (B) in the case of a charitable Transfer, irrevocably waives all rights of such Transferee

as a “Shareholder Party” for all purposes of this Agreement; and

(vi)       Transfers

pursuant to any order of a court or regulatory body of competent jurisdiction.

(c)       Notwithstanding

Section 2.1(a) and Section 2.1(b), no Shareholder Party will at any time during or following the Lock-Up Period,

without the prior written consent of the Company, directly or knowingly indirectly Transfer any Lock-Up Shares to (i) a Prohibited Transferee

or (ii) to a Person or Group that, after giving effect to a proposed Transfer, would beneficially own greater than ten percent (10%) of

the then outstanding shares of Common Stock on an as-converted basis.

7

Notwithstanding the foregoing,

but subject to Section 2.1(a), nothing in this Section 2.1(c) shall restrict any Transfer (other than to any Prohibited

Transferee described in clause (a) of Schedule A) into the public market pursuant to (A) a bona fide, broadly distributed

underwritten public offering or (B) any block trade, bought deal, overnight marketed offering, or accelerated bookbuilt offering, in each

case made in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement.

Shareholder acknowledges that the Lock-Up Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and as such the Lock-Up Shares may

not be transferred except pursuant to an effective Registration Statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from registration

under the Securities Act. The Shareholder agrees that it will not, and will cause its Affiliates not to, make any Transfer at any time

if such action would or would be likely to (i) constitute a violation of any securities Laws of any applicable jurisdiction or a

breach of the conditions to any exemption from registration of the Lock-Up Shares under any such Laws or (ii) cause the Company to

become subject to the registration requirements of the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940.

or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

“THE SHARES OF COMMON

STOCK REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), WITH

THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE OR UNDER ANY OTHER SECURITIES LAWS AND,

ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED, ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF

(I) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION OF THE SHARES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OR (II) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL,

IN SUCH FORM AND BY SUCH COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO MARTIN MARIETTA MATERIALS, INC. AND ITS COUNSEL, THAT SUCH SALE, TRANSFER,

OFFER, HYPOTHECATION, ASSIGNMENT OR OTHER DISPOSITION IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES

LAWS.”

8

(c)       Each

certificate or other instrument evidencing the securities issued upon the transfer of any Lock-Up Shares shall bear the legend set forth

above in Section 3.1(b) unless (i) in such opinion of counsel to the Company, registration of any future transfer is

not required by the applicable provisions of the Securities Act or (ii) the Company shall have waived the requirement of such legends.

(d)       When

(i) any Lock-Up Shares are sold or otherwise Transferred pursuant to an effective Registration Statement under the Securities Act

or (ii) a Shareholder Party has transferred or intends to transfer such shares pursuant to Rule 144, such Shareholder Party

shall be entitled to receive from the Company, without expense to such Shareholder Party and within five (5) Business Days of such Shareholder

Party’s written request, a new certificate or other instrument (including a statement issued by the registrar in connection with

a book-entry system) representing shares of Common Stock not bearing the restrictive legend set forth above in Section 3.1(b).

The Company shall cooperate with and direct its transfer agent to facilitate the timely removal of such legends.

(e)       Each

certificate representing Lock-Up Shares, or other instrument (including a statement issued by the registrar in connection with a book-entry

system) representing Lock-Up Shares, shall during the Lock-Up Period be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially

the following form:

“THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK REPRESENTED

HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO A LOCK-UP PURSUANT TO A SHAREHOLDERS AGREEMENT DATED AS OF August

from the Company, without expense and within five (5) Business Days following the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, a new certificate

or other instrument (including a statement issued by the registrar in connection with a book-entry system) representing shares of Common

Section 4.    Election

of Directors; Observer.

4.1.       Designation

Rights.

(a)       Immediately

following the execution of this Agreement, the Board shall take such actions as are necessary to increase the size of the Board by one

(1) director and appoint the designee of the Shareholder set forth on Schedule B hereto (such designee, or any successor specified

in accordance with Section 4.3, the “First Shareholder Designee”) as a member of the Board, in each case, in

accordance with the Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company (the “Charter”), the Restated Bylaws of the Company

(the “Bylaws”) and the North Carolina Business Corporation Act, to serve as a director and with a term expiring at

the 2027 annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified.

(b)       Immediately

following the execution of this Agreement, the Board shall take such actions as are necessary to appoint the designee of the Shareholder

set forth on Schedule B hereto (such designee, or any successor specified in accordance with Section 4.3, the “Shareholder

Observer”) as an observer of the Board and, upon the first vacancy on the Board following the date of this Agreement for any

reason (other than a vacancy resulting from the First Shareholder Designee ceasing to serve on the Board), the remaining directors and

the Company shall consider in good faith causing the vacancy created thereby to be filled by the Shareholder Observer (if so appointed

to the Board, such designee, or any successor specified in accordance with Section 4.3, the “Second Shareholder Designee”

and together with the First Shareholder Designee, the “Shareholder Designees” and each, a “Shareholder Designee”).

Following any such appointment to the Board, the right to appoint a Shareholder Observer shall terminate.

(c)       During

the period commencing on the date hereof until any appointment of the Shareholder Observer as the Second Shareholder Designee, the Shareholder

Observer will receive, on a confidential basis, copies of all documents distributed to the Board, including all materials prepared for

consideration at any Board meeting and all minutes related to each Board meeting occurring on or after the date hereof contemporaneous

with their distribution to the Board. The Shareholder Observer will have the right to attend and participate, but not vote, at all Board

meetings during this period. The Company will be entitled to withhold any information and exclude the Shareholder Observer from any Board

meeting, or any portion thereof, as is reasonably determined by the Company to be necessary to protect the Company’s attorney-client

privilege or pertains to the matters described in Section 4.6(c).

(d)       Until

the occurrence of the First Fall-Away Event, at any annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders at which the term of any Shareholder

Designee shall expire (including the first such meeting following the date hereof), the Shareholder shall have the right to (i) nominate

to the Board (A) at any time the Shareholder Observer has not been appointed as a member of the Board pursuant to Section 4.1(b),

one (1) Shareholder Designee as a member of the Board and (B) following any appointment of the Shareholder Observer as a member of the

Board pursuant to Section 4.1(b), two (2) Shareholder Designees as members of the Board, and in the

10

case of each of clauses (A) and (B), the Company

agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to include such Shareholder Designees in the slate of nominees recommended

by the Board for election at such annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders and to nominate and recommend such Shareholder Designees

to be elected as directors, and to solicit proxies or consents in favor thereof. After the First Fall-Away Event and until the occurrence

of the Second Fall-Away Event, at any annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders at which the term of a Shareholder Designee shall

expire, the Shareholder shall have the right to nominate to the Board one (1) Shareholder Designee as a member of the Board and the Company

agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to include such Shareholder Designee in the slate of nominees recommended by

the Board for election at such annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders and to nominate and recommend such Shareholder Designee

to be elected as a director, and to solicit proxies or consents in favor thereof. After the Complete Fall-Away Event, the Shareholder

shall cease to have any rights under this Agreement to nominate any Shareholder Designees as members of the Board, or to designate any

Shareholder Observer, and the Company shall not be required to include any such Shareholder Designee in the slate of nominees recommended

by the Board for election at any meeting of shareholders and all rights of the Shareholder under this Section 4 shall terminate.

(e)       For

so long as the Shareholder Parties maintain any rights to nominate any Shareholder Designee as a member of the Board or designate any

Shareholder Observer under this Section 4, such rights shall only be exercisable by the Shareholder on behalf of all Shareholder

Parties. Such Shareholder’s rights under this Section 4 may not be assigned without the prior written consent of the

Company, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise, and any such assignment shall be null and void, other than pursuant to

a transfer by all Shareholder Parties of all their Lock-Up Shares to a single Permitted Transferee, in which case such Permitted Transferee

shall be entitled to exercise such rights.

4.2.       Committees.

Immediately following execution of this Agreement, the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall take all necessary actions

to promptly appoint (i) the First Shareholder Designee to the committee of the Board set forth opposite their name on Schedule B attached

hereto and (ii) the Shareholder Observer as an observer to the committee of the Board set forth opposite their name on Schedule B attached

hereto. Thereafter, the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall give the Shareholder Designees and the Shareholder Observer

the same due consideration for membership on each committee of the Board, including any new committee(s) and subcommittee(s) that may

be established, as any director and shall ensure that the Shareholder Designees and the Shareholder Observer receive the same treatment

with respect to the committees on which they serve as other directors, in each case, taking into account adjustment of committee membership

as determined by the Board consistent with the Board’s past practice. The Company shall cause (x) the Shareholder Observer and any

Shareholder Designee to receive committee materials in the same manner as any other director of the Company, (y) the First Shareholder

Designee to receive notice of, and be invited to, any meeting of the Executive Committee of the Board and (z) the Shareholder Observer

and any Shareholder Designee to receive notice of, and be invited to, any meetings of any other committees

11

of the Board of which such Shareholder Designee

is not a member, or the Shareholder Observer is not an observer, to the extent any other directors who are not members or observers of

those committees receive notice of, or are invited to, such meetings.

4.3.       Vacancies;

Removal. In the event that a Shareholder Designee shall cease to serve as a director of the Company for any reason, or the Shareholder

Observer shall cease to serve as an observer of the Board of Directors of the Company for any reason, the Shareholder shall be entitled

to designate a replacement that is reasonably acceptable to the Company (determined in the same manner as any other potential new director

candidate) as such person’s successor, and provided that such person also meets the qualifications required for service as a director

as set forth in the Charter, the Bylaws, Board committee charters, Corporate Governance Guidelines and any similar documents applicable

to directors, and the remaining directors and the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, take all actions necessary

at any time and from time to time to cause the vacancy created thereby to be filled by such new Shareholder Designee or Shareholder Observer

(as the case may be) as soon as possible. Upon a new Shareholder Designee’s appointment to the Board, or a new Shareholder Observer’s

appointment as an observer, the Board and all applicable committees shall appoint such Shareholder Designee or Shareholder Observer as

a member or observer, as applicable, to any applicable committee of the Board of which the preceding Shareholder Designee or Shareholder

Observer was a member or observer immediately prior to such Shareholder Designee or Shareholder Observer ceasing to serve as such (or

such other committees as are mutually agreed by the Shareholder and Company), subject to such successor having appropriate experience

and qualifications for such applicable committee and otherwise satisfying the eligibility requirements for such committee. No Shareholder

Designee or Shareholder Observer shall be removed from the Board by the Company without the prior written consent of the Shareholder,

other than for “cause,” as set forth in the Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company.

4.4.       Fall-Away.

(a)       Upon

the occurrence of the First Fall-Away Event (i) the Shareholder shall cause the Shareholder Observer (or if there are two Shareholder

Designees at such time (one Shareholder Designee)) to deliver to the Company a resignation letter, pursuant to which such person shall

resign from the Board if so elected by the Company and (ii) such person shall be deemed to have resigned from the Board with immediate

effect if so elected by the Company.

(b)       Upon

the occurrence of the Second Fall-Away Event (i) any remaining Shareholder Designees and any Shareholder Observer shall be deemed to have

resigned from the Board with immediate effect if so elected by the Company, and the Shareholder shall cease to have any rights under this

Section 4 and (ii) the Shareholder shall cause such Shareholder Designees and Shareholder Observer (if any) to deliver to the Company

a resignation letter, pursuant to which such Shareholder Designee and Shareholder Observer (if any) shall resign from the Board if so

elected by the Company.

12

(c)       Upon

the occurrence of the Complete Fall-Away Event (i) all Shareholder Designees and the Shareholder Observer (if any) shall be deemed to

have resigned from the Board with immediate effect if so elected by the Company, and the Shareholder shall cease to have any rights under

this Section 4 and (ii) the Shareholder shall cause such Shareholder Designees and Shareholder Observer (if any) to deliver to

the Company a resignation letter, pursuant to which such Shareholder Designees and Shareholder Observer (if any) shall resign from the

Board if so elected by the Company.

4.5.       Indemnification;

Exculpation; Directors and Officers Insurance; Fees and Expenses. The Company shall add each Shareholder Designee as a beneficiary

to the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy effective from the date each Shareholder Designee

is appointed and shall provide all other contractual, insurance and other director liability indemnification or exculpation coverages

and rights provided to other members of the Board. The Company shall enter into an indemnification agreement with each Shareholder Designee

that is on the same form as the indemnification agreements it has entered into with other members of the Board. Each Shareholder Designee shall

be entitled to reimbursement of expenses incurred in such capacity on the same basis as the Company provides such reimbursement to the

other members of its Board.

4.6.       Conditions.

As a condition to the appointment of any Shareholder Observer or Shareholder Designee, as applicable (and nomination for election as a

director of the Company pursuant to this Section 4 in the case of a Shareholder Designee), the Shareholder agrees and acknowledges

that the Company will require:

(a)       any

such Shareholder Designee to provide to the Company all information reasonably requested by the Company that is required to be or is customarily

disclosed for directors, candidates for directors and their respective Affiliates and representatives in a proxy statement or other filing

and the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby and any matter related thereto; and

13

(d)       any

such Shareholder Observer to provide to the Company an executed letter agreement containing an undertaking to abide by confidentiality

Each of the Shareholder and

Parent agrees that until the earlier of (i) fifteen (15) months following the first day on which (x) no Shareholder Designee serves on

the Board and (y) the Shareholder has irrevocably waived its right, or no longer has any right, to nominate the Shareholder Designees

Affiliates would beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than 12,783,660

shares of Common Stock (adjusted for any stock split or similar event) (which calculation shall, for the avoidance of doubt, include the

notional or other number of shares of Common Stock specified in the documentation for any Contract to which the Shareholder or any of

the other Shareholder Parties is a party that is designed to produce economic benefits and risks to the Shareholder or any of the Shareholder

Parties that correspond substantially to the ownership by the Shareholder Parties of shares of Common Stock));

(k)       contest

the validity of this Section 5 or make, initiate, take or participate in any demand, Action (legal or otherwise) or proposal

to amend, waive or terminate any provision of this Section 5;

15

provided, however, that nothing

in this Section 5 or elsewhere in this Agreement will limit Parent or the Shareholder Parties’ ability, as applicable,

to (A) vote, Transfer (subject to Section 2.1) or otherwise exercise rights hereunder or under their Common Stock, (B) designate

a Shareholder Designee or Shareholder Observer and the ability of any Shareholder Designee to deliberate, vote or otherwise exercise his

or such other address or email address as such

Party may hereafter specify by like notice to the other Party. All such notices, requests and other communications shall be deemed received

on the date of actual receipt by the recipient thereof if received prior to 5:00 p.m. local time in the place of receipt and such

day is a Business Day in the place of receipt. Otherwise, any such notice, request or communication shall be deemed not to have been received

until the next succeeding Business Day in the place of receipt.

6.5.       Specific

Performance.

The Parties agree that irreparable

damage for which monetary relief, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any provision of this

Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (a) the

Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this

Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in the courts described in Section 6.1 without proof

of damages or otherwise, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement and (b) the right

of specific enforcement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated hereby and without that right, neither the Company nor the

Shareholder would have entered into this Agreement. The Parties agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable,

invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason, and agree not to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate

remedy or that the Parties otherwise have an adequate remedy at Law. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any Party seeking an injunction

or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance

with this Section 6.5 shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

6.6.       Treatment

of Certain Transfers.

Any Transfer or attempted Transfer

in breach of this Agreement shall be void ab initio and of no effect. In connection with any attempted Transfer in breach of this

Agreement, the Company may hold and refuse to transfer any Lock-Up Shares or any certificate therefor, in addition to and without prejudice

to any and all other rights or remedies which may be available to it and/or the Shareholder or any other Shareholder Party.

19

6.7.       Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed

in one or more counterparts (including by electronic mail), each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together

shall constitute one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the

Parties (including by electronic signature) and delivered to the other Party (including electronically, e.g., in PDF format).

6.8.       Severability.

If any term, condition or other

provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by

any rule of Law or public policy, all other terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force

and effect. Upon such determination that any term, condition or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the

Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible

to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law.

6.9.       Further

Efforts.

Each party hereto shall do and

perform or cause to be done and performed, without further consideration, all such further acts and things and shall execute and deliver

all such other agreements, certificates, instruments, and documents as the other Party may reasonably request in order to carry out the

provisions of this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. Each party hereto further agrees to take the actions

set forth on Schedule C.

6.10.       Extension

of Time, Waiver, Etc.

The Parties may, subject to

applicable Law, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or acts of the other Party or (b) waive compliance

by the other Party with any of the agreements contained herein applicable to such Party or, except as otherwise provided herein, waive

any of such Party’s conditions. 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 thereof or the

exercise of any other right hereunder. Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set

forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such Party.

6.11.       Entire

Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries.

This Agreement constitutes the

entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties and their Affiliates,

or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof. No provision of this Agreement shall confer

20

upon any Person other than the Parties and their

permitted assigns any rights or remedies hereunder.

6.12.       No

Partnership Status.

Nothing in this Agreement and

no actions taken by the Parties under this Agreement shall constitute a partnership, association or other co-operative entity between

any of the Parties or constitute any Party the agent of any other Party for any purpose.

6.13.       Binding

Effect.

This Agreement shall be binding

upon the Company, the Shareholder and permitted successors and assigns of the foregoing.

6.14.       Further

Acknowledgements.

The Shareholder acknowledges

and agrees that the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Agreement are reasonable and have been imposed to accomplish legitimate

corporate objectives and may adversely affect the proceeds received by the Shareholder or any other Shareholder Party in any sale, transfer

or liquidation of any Lock-Up Shares, and as a result of such restrictions on transfer and ownership, it may not be possible for the Shareholder

or any other Shareholder Party to liquidate all or any part of their interest in Lock-Up Shares at the time of their choosing, in exigent

circumstances or otherwise. The Shareholder further acknowledges and agrees that the Company and its Affiliates shall have no liability

whatsoever to the Shareholder or any other Shareholder Party arising from, relating to or in connection with the restrictions on transfer

of Lock-Up Shares or any interest therein as set forth in this Agreement, except to the extent the Company fails to comply with its obligations

to the Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement.

6.15.       Interpretation.

(a)       When

a reference is made in this Agreement to an Article, a Section, Annex, Exhibit or Schedule, such reference shall be to an Article of,

a Section of, or an Annex, Exhibit or Schedule to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The table of contents and headings contained

in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever

the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, 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 this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of

this Agreement. The words “date hereof” when used in this Agreement shall refer to the date of this Agreement. 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

21

and effect as the word “shall”. The

definitions contained in this Agreement 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. In the event that the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange

other than the NYSE, all references herein to the NYSE shall be deemed to be references to such other national securities exchange. Any

agreement, instrument or statute defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means 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. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, all references to “dollars” or “$”

shall refer to the lawful money of the United States. References to a Person are also to its permitted assigns and successors. When calculating

the period of time between which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, 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).

(b)       The

Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent

or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as jointly drafted by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall

arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

6.16.       Assignment.

Except as expressly set forth

herein, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation

of Law or otherwise, by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other party hereto.

This REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT,

dated as of August 21, 2026 (this “Agreement”), is made between Martin

Marietta Materials, Inc., a North Carolina corporation (together with its successors and permitted assigns, the “Company”),

and LNA Holding SRL, a société à responsabilité limitée organized under the laws of Belgium

(together with its successors and permitted assigns, the “Shareholder” and, together with the Company, the “Parties”).

A.       On

the date hereof, the Shareholder acquired 10,953,543 shares of common stock of the Company,

par value $0.01 per share (the “Company Shares”), pursuant to the Securities Sale Agreement, dated as of June 27,

2026 (the “Securities Sale Agreement”), among the Company and the Shareholder.

B.       On

the date hereof, the Company, the Shareholder and Financière de Gestions Internationales, a société en commandite

par actions organized under the laws of Luxembourg, are also entering into a Shareholders Agreement (the “Shareholders Agreement”).

C.       In

connection with the Completion of the transactions under the Securities Sale Agreement, the Company desires to grant to the Shareholder

certain registration rights in the United States with respect to the Company Shares issued to the Shareholder pursuant to the Securities

Sale Agreement.

D.       Capitalized

terms used in this Agreement are used as defined in Section 12.

Now, therefore, the Parties

hereto agree as follows:

1.       Shelf

and Demand Registrations.

(a)       Shelf

Registration. As promptly as practicable following the Completion Date and, in any event, no later than sixty (60) days prior to the

first anniversary of the Completion Date, and subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 2.1(a) of the Shareholders Agreement,

so long as the Shareholder or any other Shareholder Party holds Company Shares and such shares are Registrable Securities and so long

as the Company is eligible to use Form S-3 (or a comparable form) for the registration of the Company Shares, the Company shall file with

the SEC a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (or, if Form S-3 is unavailable, Form S-1)), or a prospectus supplement to any then-effective

automatic shelf registration statement of the Company, in either case covering all Registrable Securities for the sale or distribution

of Registrable Securities on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (a “Shelf Registration”);

it being agreed that if the Company qualifies as a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) at the

time of filing, the Shelf Registration Statement shall be filed as an automatically effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3ASR

pursuant to Rule 462(e) under the Securities Act. The Company shall comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act with respect

to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement in accordance with the intended methods of

disposition by the Shareholder and the other Shareholder Parties thereof. The Shelf Registration Statement shall permit delayed or continuous

offerings pursuant to Rule 415 and shall cover all customary distribution methods, including underwritten offerings and Block Trades.

(b)       Demand

Registration. Subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 2.1(a) of the Shareholders Agreement, so long as the Shareholder

or any other Shareholder Party holds

1

Company Shares and such shares are Registrable

Securities, if no Shelf Registration Statement covering the applicable Registrable Securities is then-effective, the Shareholder may make

one or more Registration Requests covering all or a portion of the Registrable Securities held by it and the other Shareholder Parties

pursuant to the Securities Act (including on Form S-1 if Form S-3 is unavailable). The Company shall comply with the applicable provisions

of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement in accordance

with the intended methods of disposition by the Shareholder and the other Shareholder Parties thereof.

(c)       The

Company, within twenty (20) Business Days of the date on which the Company receives a Registration Request given by the Shareholder in

accordance with Section 1(b) hereof, will file with the SEC, and the Company will thereafter use reasonable best efforts to cause

to be declared effective within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of such Registration Request, a Registration Statement on the appropriate

form for the registration and sale, in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution, of the total number of Registrable

Securities specified by the Shareholder in such Registration Request (it being agreed that the Registration Statement shall be an automatic

shelf registration statement that shall become effective upon filing with the SEC pursuant to Rule 462(e) under the Securities Act if

Rule 462(e) is available to the Company); provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to give effect to any

Registration Request if, in the Company’s reasonable judgment, it is not feasible for the Company to proceed with such registration

because of the unavailability of audited or other required financial statements of the Company or any other Person; provided, that

the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain such financial statements as promptly as practicable.

(d)       The

Company will use reasonable best efforts to keep each Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 1 continuously

effective and usable for the resale of the Registrable Securities covered thereby until the earlier of (i) the date on which all of the

Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement and (ii)

the date on which all Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement are eligible for resale under Rule 144 without

volume, manner-of-sale, or current public information restrictions; provided that, if on the third (3rd) anniversary

date of the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement, Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement remain

unsold, the Company shall re-file such Shelf Registration Statement (or file a new Shelf Registration Statement) upon its expiration and

keep such re-filed (or new) Shelf Registration Statement effective and usable for the aforesaid period. The time period for which the

Company is required to maintain the effectiveness of any Registration Statement is hereinafter referred to as the “Effectiveness

Period”.

(e)       From

and after the Completion Date and subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 2.1(a) of the Shareholders Agreement, at any

time that any Shelf Registration is effective, if the Shareholder delivers a notice to the Company (a “Take-Down Notice”)

stating that it (or any other Shareholder Party) intends to effect an underwritten offering or distribution of all or part of its or their

Registrable Securities included by it (or any other Shareholder Party) on any Shelf Registration (a “Shelf Offering”)

and stating the number of the Registrable Securities to be included in the Shelf Offering, then the Company shall amend or supplement

the Shelf Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to enable such Registrable Securities to be distributed pursuant to the

Shelf Offering. In connection with any Shelf Offering, if the managing

2

underwriter(s) advise the Shareholder in writing

that in its or their view the total number or dollar amount of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in such offering is such as

to adversely affect the success of such offering, the managing underwriter(s) may limit the number of shares which would otherwise be

included in such offering in the same manner as is described in Section 1(h). The Company will pay all Registration Expenses incurred

in connection with any registration or underwritten offering requested in accordance with this Agreement.

(f)       Selection

of Underwriters. If the Shareholder or the other Shareholder Parties intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by any

Registration Request or Take-Down Notice by means of an underwritten offering, the Shareholder will so advise the Company as a part of

the Registration Request or Take-Down Notice. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 1(f), the Company will not be obligated

to effect more than three (3) such underwritten offerings in any 12-month period. In connection with any such underwritten offering, the

Shareholder will have the right to select the managing underwriter(s) and co-managers, subject to the Company’s approval, not to

be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In such an underwritten offering, the Shareholder and any other Shareholder Party which

holds Registrable Securities which are to be sold in such offering (together with the Company) will enter into an underwriting agreement

in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such offering. If the Shareholder disapproves of the terms of the

underwriting, the Shareholder may elect to withdraw therefrom (which withdrawal will also constitute a withdrawal by all Shareholder Parties)

by written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter(s); provided, however, that such attempted offering will not

count as one of the Shareholder’s three (3) underwritten offerings described above unless the Shareholder’s decision to withdraw

from, terminate, abandon or cancel such offering results solely from the Shareholder’s own commercial reasons and does not result

from or arise out of (x) any market disruption or adverse market conditions, (y) the advice or recommendation of the managing underwriter(s)

or (z) any action by the Company that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the timing, marketability or offering price of

the securities contemplated to have been offered in such registration.

(g)       Restrictions

on Underwritten Offerings. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 1 to the contrary, the Shareholder and the other Shareholder

Parties may not make, and the Company will not be obligated to effect, an underwritten offering (other than a Shelf Offering or Block

Trade) unless the reasonably anticipated aggregate gross proceeds of such underwritten offering are at least $75,000,000 (unless the Shareholder

and the other Shareholder Parties are proposing to sell all of their remaining Company Shares). For the avoidance of doubt, no minimum

offering size shall apply to Shelf Offerings or Block Trades. In addition, the Shareholder and the other Shareholder Parties may not,

without the Company’s prior written consent, launch a demand registration pursuant to Section 1(b) within sixty (60) days

of any other underwritten offering of Registrable Securities by the Shareholder or any other Shareholder Party; provided that no

Shelf Offering or Block Trade shall be subject to the foregoing restriction or any other cooling-off period.

(h)       Priority

on Registrations. The Company will not include in any underwritten registration pursuant to Section 1 any securities that are

not Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of the Shareholder. If the managing underwriter(s) advise the Shareholder

in writing that in its or their opinion the number of Registrable Securities (and, if permitted hereunder, other securities requested

to be included in such offering) exceeds the number of securities that

3

can be sold in such offering without adversely

affecting the marketability of the offering, the Company will include in such offering only such number of securities that can be sold

without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, which securities will be so included in the following order of priority:

(i) first, Registrable Securities of the Shareholder and any other Shareholder Party and (ii) second, any other securities of the Company

that have been requested to be so included. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no employee of the Company or any subsidiary thereof will be

entitled to participate, directly or indirectly, in any such registration to the extent that the managing underwriter(s) (or, in the case

of any offering that is not underwritten, a nationally recognized investment banking firm) determines in good faith that the participation

of such employee in such registration would adversely affect the marketability or offering price of the securities being sold in such

registration.

(i)       Block

Trades. In addition to Shelf Offerings, the Shareholder shall have the right to effect Block Trades off any effective Shelf Registration

Statement, without any minimum offering size and without counting toward the limitation on underwritten offerings set forth in Section

1(f); provided, however, that the Company will not be obligated to facilitate more than four (4) such Block Trades in

any 12-month period. The Shareholder may initiate any such transaction upon such notice as is reasonably practicable under the circumstances,

and in any event, no less than five (5) Business Days. The Company shall provide customary expedited cooperation in connection with any

such transaction, including making senior management available as reasonably requested. The Shareholder shall have the right to select

the managing underwriter(s) for any such transaction, subject to the Company’s approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned

or delayed.

2.       Restrictions

on Registration.

(a)       Right

to Defer or Suspend Registration. In the event that the Company determines in good faith that any one or more of the following circumstances

exist, the Company may, at its option, (x) defer any registration of Registrable Securities in response to a Registration Request or (y)

require the Shareholder and the other Shareholder Parties to suspend any offerings of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration

Statement for the periods specified:

(i)       subject

to the limitations set forth in Section 2(b), if the Company determines in good faith that an offering would require the Company,

under applicable securities laws and other laws, to make disclosures of material non-public information that would not otherwise be required

to be disclosed at that time and that such disclosures at that time would not be in the Company’s best interests; provided,

that this exception shall continue to apply only during the time that such material non-public information has not been disclosed and

remains material; provided, further, that upon disclosure of such material non-public information, the Company shall (x)

notify the Shareholder and the other Shareholder Parties whose Registrable Securities are included in the Registration Statement; (y)

terminate any deferment or suspension it has put into effect; and (z) take such actions necessary to permit registered sales of Registrable

Securities as required or contemplated by this Agreement, including, if necessary, the preparation and filing of a post-effective amendment

or prospectus supplement so that the Registration Statement and any prospectus forming a part thereof will not include an untrue statement

of material fact

4

or omit to state any material fact necessary

to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading; and

(ii)       subject

to the limitations set forth in Section 2(b), if the Company is pursuing a primary underwritten offering of Company Shares pursuant

to a Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Shareholder and the other Shareholder Parties shall have Piggyback

Registration rights with respect to such primary underwritten offering in accordance with and subject to the restrictions set forth in

Section 3.

(b)       Limitation

on Deferrals and Suspensions. The Company shall not be permitted to defer registration or require the Shareholder and the other Shareholder

Parties to suspend an offering pursuant to this Section 2 more than three (3) times in any 12-month period. The duration of all

such deferrals or suspensions shall not exceed thirty (30) calendar days per instance and the aggregate of all such deferrals or suspensions

shall not exceed ninety (90) calendar days in any 12-month period.

(c)       If

the Company defers any registration of Registrable Securities in response to a Registration Request or Take-Down Notice or requires the

Shareholder or the other Shareholder Parties to suspend any offering of Registrable Securities,

the Shareholder and the other Shareholder Parties shall be entitled to withdraw such Registration

Request or such Take-Down Notice, as the case may be, and if it does so, such request shall not be treated for any purpose as an exercise

of a Registration Request or the delivery of a Take-Down Notice pursuant to Section 1 of this Agreement.

3.       Piggyback

Registrations.

(a)       Right

to Piggyback. During the Effectiveness Period, and subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 2.1(a) of the Shareholders

Agreement, whenever the Company proposes to register any of its securities (other than a registration pursuant to Section 1,

relating solely to employee benefit plans, or relating solely to the sale of debt or convertible debt instruments) and the registration

form to be filed may be used for the registration or qualification for distribution of Registrable Securities, the Company will give written

notice at least ten (10) Business Days before the anticipated filing date to the Shareholder of its intention to effect such a registration

and will include in such registration all Registrable Securities held by the Shareholder and the other Shareholder Parties with respect

to which the Company has received from the Shareholder a written request for inclusion therein within seven (7) Business Days after the

date of the Company’s notice (a “Piggyback Registration”). If the Shareholder has made such a written request,

it may withdraw its or any other Shareholder Parties’ Registrable Securities from such Piggyback Registration by giving written

notice to the Company and the managing underwriter(s), if any, on or before the fifth (5th) day prior to the planned effective date of

such Piggyback Registration. The Company may terminate or withdraw any registration under this Section 3 prior to the effectiveness

of such registration, whether or not the Shareholder or any other Shareholder Party has elected to include Registrable Securities in such

registration, and, except for the obligation to pay Registration Expenses pursuant to Section 3(c), the Company will have no liability

to the Shareholder or any Shareholder Party in connection with such termination or withdrawal.

5

(b)       Underwritten

Registration. If the registration referred to in Section 3(a) is proposed to be underwritten, the Company will so advise the

Shareholder as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 3(a). In such event, the right of the Shareholder and the

other Shareholder Parties to registration pursuant to this Section 3 will be conditioned upon the Shareholder’s or such other

Shareholder Parties’ participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of the Shareholder’s or such other Shareholder Parties’

Registrable Securities in the underwriting, and the Shareholder and any other Shareholder Party which holds Registrable Securities which

are to be sold in such offering will (together with the Company and any other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting)

enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such offering by the Company.

If the Shareholder disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, the Shareholder may elect to withdraw therefrom (which withdrawal will

also constitute a withdrawal by all of the other Shareholder Parties) by written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter(s).

(c)       Piggyback

Registration Expenses. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any Piggyback Registration, whether or not

any registration or prospectus becomes effective or final.

(d)       Priority

on Primary Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration relates to an underwritten primary offering on behalf of the Company, and the

managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration

exceeds the number which can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of such offering, the Company will include in such

registration or prospectus only such number of securities that in the opinion of such underwriters can be sold without adversely affecting

the marketability of the offering, which securities will be so included in the following order of priority: (i) first, the securities

the Company proposes to sell and the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by the Shareholder or any other

Shareholder Party, pro rata based on the number of securities proposed to be included by each, and (ii) second, any other

securities requested to be included in such registration, pro rata among the holders thereof on the basis of the number of securities

owned by each such holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any employee of the Company or any subsidiary thereof will not be entitled to

participate, directly or indirectly, in any such registration to the extent that the managing underwriter(s) (or, in the case of an offering

that is not underwritten, a nationally recognized investment banking firm) will determine in good faith that the participation of such

employee in such registration would adversely affect the marketability or offering price of the securities being sold in such registration.

(e)       Priority

on Secondary Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration relates to an underwritten secondary registration on behalf of other holders

of the Company’s securities, and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of securities

requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the

offering, the Company will include in such registration only such number of securities that in the opinion of such underwriters can be

sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, which securities will be so included in the following order of priority:

(i) first, the securities requested to be included therein by the holders requesting such registration, (ii) second, the

Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by the Shareholder or any other Shareholder Party and (iii) third,

other

6

securities of the Company and other holders, pro

rata among such holders on the basis of the number of securities owned by each such holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any employee

of the Company or any subsidiary thereof will not be entitled to participate, directly or indirectly, in any such registration to the

extent that the managing underwriter(s) (or, in the case of an offering that is not underwritten, a nationally recognized investment banking

firm) will determine in good faith that the participation of such employee in such registration would adversely affect the marketability

or offering price of the securities being sold in such registration.

4.       Holdback

Agreement.

(a)       If

(i) during the Effectiveness Period, the Company shall file a Registration Statement (other than in connection with the registration of

securities issuable pursuant to an employee stock option, stock purchase or similar plan or pursuant to a merger, exchange offer or a

transaction of the type specified in Rule 145(a) under the Securities Act) with respect to an underwritten public offering of Company

Shares or securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, Company Shares, (ii) with reasonable prior notice, the managing

underwriter or underwriters advise the Company in writing (in which case the Company shall notify the Shareholder) that a public sale

or distribution of Registrable Securities would materially adversely impact such offering and (iii) the underwriter or underwriters have

obtained written holdback agreements from the Company, each executive officer of the Company and each other person who has been granted

registration rights by the Company, then the Shareholder and each other Shareholder Party shall, if requested by the Company and the managing

underwriter or underwriters, to the extent not inconsistent with applicable law, refrain from effecting any public sale or distribution

of Registrable Securities, without the prior written consent of the Company and the managing underwriter or underwriters, during the fourteen

(14) days prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement and until the earliest of (A) sixty (60) days from the effective

date of such Registration Statement or (B) the abandonment of such offering. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations of the Shareholder

and each other Shareholder Party under this Section 4 in respect of any such offering shall terminate in the event that the Company

or any underwriter terminates, releases or waives, in whole or in part, the holdback agreements with respect to the Company, any executive

officer of the Company or any such other person who has been granted registration rights by the Company; and

(b)       In

connection with any underwritten public offering of Registrable Securities by the Shareholder or any other Shareholder Party,

the Company shall, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have its directors and executive officers, if requested in writing

by the managing underwriter or underwriters, agree not to make any public sale or other distribution of Company Shares or securities convertible

into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, Company Shares (other than offerings in connection with the registration of securities issuable

pursuant to an employee stock option, stock purchase or similar plan or pursuant to a merger, exchange offer or a transaction of the type

specified in Rule 145(a) under the Securities Act) during the fourteen (14) days prior to the pricing date of such underwritten public

offering and until the earliest of (A) sixty (60) days from the pricing date of such underwritten public offering or (B) the abandonment

of such offering.

5.       Registration

Procedures. In connection with the registration obligations of the Company pursuant to and in accordance with Section 1, the

Company will use reasonable best

7

efforts to effect the registration and sale of

such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:

(a)       prepare

and file with the SEC a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities, subject to Section 1(c) of this Agreement,

make all required filings with FINRA and thereafter use reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective;

provided, that before filing a Registration Statement or any amendments or supplements

thereto (other than reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference

into the Registration Statement), the Company will furnish to the Shareholder copies of all documents proposed to be filed. If the Shareholder

informs the Company in writing within five (5) Business Days of receipt that it has any objections to the filing of such Registration

Statement, amendment or supplement, the Company will not file such Registration Statement, amendment or supplement prior to the date that

is five (5) Business Days from the date the Shareholder received such document. The Company will not file any Registration Statement or

amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement to which the Shareholder will have reasonably objected in writing on the grounds

that (and explaining why) such amendment or supplement does not comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities

Act or of the rules or regulations thereunder;

(b)       prepare

and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement

effective for a period of either (i) not less than the Effectiveness Period or, if such Registration Statement relates to an underwritten

offering, such longer period as in the opinion of counsel for the underwriters a prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection

with sales of Registrable Securities by an underwriter or dealer or (ii) such shorter period

as will terminate when all of the securities covered by such Registration Statement have been disposed of in accordance with the intended

methods of disposition by the Shareholder or any other Shareholder Party, as applicable, set forth in such Registration Statement (but

in any event not before the expiration of any longer period required under the Securities Act), and to comply with the provisions of the

Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such

securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Shareholder and any other Shareholder Party,

as applicable, set forth in such Registration Statement;

(c)       furnish

to the Shareholder and any other Shareholder Party participating in a disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement, without charge,

such number of conformed copies of such Registration Statement and of each post-effective amendment thereto, and deliver, without charge,

such number of copies of each preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, all exhibits and other documents filed therewith and such other

documents as the Shareholder and such other Shareholder Party may reasonably request including in order to facilitate the disposition

of their Registrable Securities;

(d)       use

reasonable best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions

as the Shareholder reasonably requests in writing (provided that the Company will not be required to (i) qualify generally to do

business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this subsection, (ii)

8

subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction

or (iii) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction);

(e)       promptly

notify the Shareholder and any other Shareholder Party participating in a disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement, at any

time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, upon discovery that, or upon the discovery

of the happening of any event as a result of which, the prospectus contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary

to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, and, as promptly as practicable,

prepare and furnish to the Shareholder and such other Shareholder Parties a reasonable number of copies of a supplement or amendment to

such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus will not contain an

untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of

the circumstances under which they were made;

(f)       promptly

notify the Shareholder and any other Shareholder Party participating in a disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement (i) when

the prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed and, with respect to such Registration Statement

or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective, (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to such

Registration Statement or to amend or to supplement such prospectus or for additional information, (iii) of the issuance by the SEC of

any stop order suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose, (iv)

of the receipt by the Company or its legal counsel of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of any of the

Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose and (v) the happening

of any event that requires the Company to make changes in any effective Registration Statement or the prospectus related to such Registration

Statement to make the statements in such Registration Statement not misleading or the statements in such prospectus not misleading in

light of the circumstances in which they were made (which notice shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the prospectus

until the requisite changes have been made);

(g)       use

reasonable best efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange and on each other securities

exchange, if any, on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed;

(h)       enter

into such customary agreements (including underwriting agreements in form, scope and substance as is customary in underwritten offerings)

and take all such appropriate and reasonable other actions as the Shareholder or the underwriters, if any, reasonably request in order

to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities;

(i)       if

such offering is an underwritten offering, make available for inspection by the Shareholder and any other Shareholder Party or underwriter

participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Shareholder,

such other Shareholder Parties or any such underwriter, all financial and other records, and pertinent corporate documents of the Company

as will be reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibilities, provided that each of the Shareholder,

9

any such other Shareholder Party, any such underwriter

and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Shareholder, any such other Shareholder Party or any such underwriter will

enter into a confidentiality agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Company;

(j)       otherwise

use reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make available to its security holders,

as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve months beginning with the first day of

the Company’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which earnings statement will

satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder;

(k)       in

the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or of any order suspending or preventing

the use of any related prospectus or ceasing trading of any securities included in such Registration Statement for sale in any jurisdiction,

use reasonable best efforts promptly to obtain the withdrawal of such order at the earliest practicable time;

(l)       enter

into such agreements and take such other actions as the Shareholder or the underwriters reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate

the disposition of such Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, preparing for and participating in such number of “road

shows”, and all such other customary selling efforts as the Shareholder or the underwriters reasonably request in order to expedite

or facilitate such disposition, including, in connection with any underwritten offering (including any marketed Block Trade or registered

follow-on offering), if requested by the Shareholder or the underwriters, causing the appropriate members of senior management of the

Company (including, to the extent reasonably requested, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) as would customarily

participate in “road show” and other customary marketing activities for an offering by the Company comparable to such offering

in size and type of securities offered, to cooperate with the Shareholder and the managing underwriters or underwriter and make themselves

available to participate on a reasonable basis in “road show” and other customary marketing activities in such locations (domestic

and foreign) as recommended by the Shareholder or the managing underwriters or underwriter (including one-on-one meetings with prospective

purchasers of the Registrable Securities); provided that the scheduling of such “road shows” and other meetings shall

not unduly interfere with the normal operations of the business of the Company;

(m)       if

such offering is an underwritten offering, use reasonable best efforts to obtain one or more comfort letters, addressed to the underwriters,

dated the effective date of, or the date of the final receipt issued for such Registration Statement (the date of the closing under the

underwriting agreement for such offering), signed by the Company’s independent public accountants in customary form and covering

such matters of the type customarily covered by comfort letters in underwritten offerings;

(n)       if

such offering is an underwritten offering, use reasonable best efforts to provide (i) a legal opinion of the Company’s outside counsel,

and (ii) a negative assurance letter of the Company’s outside counsel, addressed to the underwriters, dated the effective date of,

or the date of the final receipt issued for such Registration Statement (the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement for

such offering), each amendment and supplement thereto, with respect

10

to the Registration Statement, each amendment

and supplement thereto (including the preliminary prospectus) and such other documents relating thereto in customary form and covering

such matters of the type customarily covered by such legal opinions and negative assurance letters;

(o)       make

available to the Shareholder and the other Shareholder Parties participating in a disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement

each item of correspondence from the SEC or the staff of the SEC (or other governmental agency or self-regulatory body or other body having

jurisdiction, including any domestic or foreign securities exchange) and each item of correspondence written by or on behalf of the Company

to the SEC or the staff of the SEC (or other governmental agency or self-regulatory body or other body having jurisdiction, including

any domestic or foreign securities exchange), in each case relating to such Registration Statement, other than, in each case, any item

of correspondence relating to any reports delivered or required to be delivered under the Exchange Act whether or not in connection with

such Registration Statement;

(p)       use

reasonable best efforts to procure the cooperation of the Company’s transfer agent in settling any Transfer of Registrable Securities,

including with respect to the transfer of any physical stock certificates representing common stock into book-entry form in accordance

with any procedures reasonably requested by the Shareholder or the other Shareholder Parties or the underwriters; and

(q)       provide

customary officer certificates signed by the Chief Executive Officer and/or Chief Financial Officer of the Company in connection with

any underwritten offering.

The Company agrees not to file or make any amendment

to any Registration Statement with respect to any Registrable Securities, or any amendment of or supplement to the prospectus used in

connection therewith, that refers to the Shareholder or any other Shareholder Party by name, or otherwise identifies the Shareholder or

any other Shareholder Party as the holder of any securities of the Company, without the consent of the Shareholder (any such consent to

be binding on all of the other Shareholder Parties), such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless and to the extent

such disclosure is required by applicable law.

The Company may require the Shareholder and any

other Shareholder Party to furnish the Company with such information regarding the Shareholder and such other Shareholder Party pertinent

to the disclosure requirements relating to the registration and the distribution of any securities as the Company may from time to time

reasonably request in writing. If within 20 days of the receipt of a written request from the Company, the Shareholder or any other Shareholder

Party fails to provide to the Company any information relating to the Shareholder or such other Shareholder Party, as applicable, that

is required by applicable law to be disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Company may exclude the Shareholder’s and such

other Shareholder Parties’, as applicable, Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement (and, in the case of a Registration

Statement in response to a Registration Request by the Shareholder, shall not be obligated to file such Registration Statement).

The Shareholder agrees that, upon receipt of any

notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 5(e), 5(f)(ii) or 5(f)(iii)

hereof, that the Shareholder shall discontinue, and shall cause each other Shareholder Party to discontinue, disposition of any

11

Registrable Securities covered by such

Registration Statement or the related prospectus until receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by

Section 5(e) hereof, which supplement or amendment shall be prepared and furnished as soon as reasonably practicable, or until

the Shareholder is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the applicable prospectus may be resumed, and the Shareholder and

each other Shareholder Party has received copies of any amended or supplemented prospectus or any additional or supplemental filings

which are incorporated, or deemed to be incorporated, by reference in such prospectus (such period during which disposition is discontinued

being an “Interruption Period”) and, if requested by the Company, the Shareholder shall use its commercially reasonable

efforts to return to the Company all copies then in its possession or in the possession of any other Shareholder Party, other than permanent

file copies then in such holder’s possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of

such request. As soon as practicable after the Company has determined that the use of the applicable prospectus may be resumed, the Company

will notify the Shareholder. In the event the Company invokes an Interruption Period hereunder and in the reasonable discretion of the

Company the need for the Company to continue the Interruption Period ceases for any reason, the Company shall, as soon as reasonably

practicable, provide written notice to the Shareholder that such Interruption Period is no longer applicable.

6.       Registration

Expenses.

(a)       All

expenses incidental to the Company’s performance of or compliance with this Agreement, including, without limitation, all registration

and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws, word processing, duplicating and printing expenses,

messenger and delivery expenses, the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, all independent certified public accountants,

underwriters and other Persons retained by the Shareholder and any of the other Shareholder Parties, including the reasonable fees and

expenses of one counsel to represent the Shareholder and the other Shareholder Parties selected by the Shareholder, and all transportation

and other expenses incurred by or on behalf of the Shareholder, any other Shareholder Party, the Company or any underwriters or their

respective Representatives, in connection with “roadshow” presentations and the holding of meetings with potential investors

to facilitate the distribution and sale of the Registrable Securities (all such expenses, “Registration Expenses”;

provided that in no event shall Selling Expenses constitute Registration Expenses), will be borne by the Company, regardless of

whether a registration statement is filed or becomes effective. In addition, the Company will, in any event, pay its internal expenses

(including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expenses

of any annual audit or quarterly review, the expenses of any liability insurance and the expenses and fees for listing the securities

to be registered on the New York Stock Exchange and on each other securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company

are then listed.

(b)       Selling

Expenses will be borne by the Shareholder and the other Shareholder Parties, as applicable.

7.       Indemnification.

(a)       The

Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, and hereby does indemnify and hold harmless, the Shareholder and the other Shareholder

Parties, their affiliates and their

12

respective directors, officers, employees and

partners and each Person who controls the Shareholder and the other Shareholder Parties (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against,

and pay and reimburse the Shareholder and the other Shareholder Parties, affiliate, director, officer, employee or partner or controlling

Person for any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, to which the Shareholder and the other Shareholder Parties or any

such affiliate, director, officer, employee or partner or controlling Person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise,

insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof)

arise out of or are based upon (i) 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 “issuer free writing prospectus” as such

term is defined under Rule 433 under the Securities Act or (ii) any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to

be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and the Company will pay and reimburse the Shareholder and

the other Shareholder Parties and each such affiliate, director, officer, employee, partner and controlling Person for any legal or any

other expenses actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating, defending or settling any such loss, claim,

liability, action or proceeding; provided that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss,

claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon (A) an untrue statement

or alleged untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission, made in such Registration Statement, any such prospectus or preliminary

prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any “issuer free writing prospectus” as such term is defined under Rule

433 under the Securities Act, or in any application, in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information prepared and furnished

to the Company by the Shareholder or any other Shareholder Party expressly for use therein or (B) the failure of the Shareholder, any

other Shareholder Party or any agent acting on behalf of the Shareholder or such other Shareholder Party to timely deliver a prospectus.

In connection with an underwritten offering, the Company, if requested, will indemnify such underwriters, their officers and directors

and each Person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect

to the indemnification of the Shareholder and the other Shareholder Parties.

(b)       In

connection with any Registration Statement in which the Shareholder or any other Shareholder Party is participating, the Shareholder and

each such other Shareholder Party, as applicable, will 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 will jointly indemnify and hold harmless

the Company, its directors and officers, each underwriter and each other Person who controls the Company or such underwriter (within the

meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or any such director

or officer, any such underwriter or controlling Person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses,

claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based

upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus

or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or in any application or (ii) any omission or alleged 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 made in such Registration Statement, any such prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto,

or in any

13

application, in reliance upon and in conformity

with written information prepared and furnished to the Company by the Shareholder or such other Shareholder Party, as applicable, expressly

for use therein, and the Shareholder and such other Shareholder Party will reimburse the Company and each such director, officer, underwriter

and controlling Person for any legal or any other expenses actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating,

defending or settling any such loss, claim, liability, action or proceeding; provided that the obligation to indemnify and hold

harmless will be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by the Shareholder and such other Shareholder Party (in the aggregate)

from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.

(c)       Any

Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to

which it seeks indemnification 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 will not be subject

to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld).

An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim will 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.

(d)       The

indemnification provided for under this Agreement will 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 will survive the registration and

sale of any securities by any Person entitled to any indemnification hereunder and the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

(e)       If

the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is legally unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability,

claim, damage or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder,

will contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense

in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party

on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense as well

as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party will be determined

by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material

fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge,

access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount the

Shareholder and any other Shareholder Party will be obligated to contribute pursuant to this Section 7(e) will be limited to an

amount equal to the proceeds received by the Shareholder and such other Shareholder Party (in the aggregate) in respect of the Registrable

Securities sold pursuant to the Registration Statement which gives rise to such obligation to contribute (less the aggregate amount of

any damages which the Shareholder and each such other Shareholder Party has otherwise been required to pay in

14

respect of such loss, claim, damage, liability

or action or any substantially similar loss, claim, damage, liability or action arising from the sale of such Registrable Securities).

8.       Participation

in Underwritten Registrations.

(a)       Neither

the Shareholder nor any other Shareholder Party may participate in any registration hereunder that is underwritten unless each of the

Shareholder and any such other Shareholder Party (i) completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, underwriting

agreements and other customary documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements and (ii) cooperates with

the Company’s requests in connection with such registration or qualification (it being understood that the Company’s failure

to perform its obligations hereunder, which failure is caused by the Shareholder’s or any other Shareholder Parties’ failure

to cooperate, will not constitute a breach by the Company of this Agreement).

(b)       To

the extent that the Shareholder or any other Shareholder Party is participating in any registration hereunder, the Shareholder agrees

that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 5(e) above, the

Shareholder will, and will cause any such other Shareholder Party to, forthwith discontinue the disposition of its Registrable Securities

pursuant to the Registration Statement until the Shareholder and such other Shareholder Parties receive copies of a supplemented or amended

prospectus as contemplated by such Section 5(e).

9.       Rule

144 and 144A Reporting.

(a)       With

a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities

to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use reasonable best efforts to (i) file with the SEC in a timely manner all

reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (ii) keep public information available

at any time when the Company is subject to such reporting requirements, (iii) maintain compliance with Rule 144 current public information

requirements, and (iv) take all actions reasonably necessary to facilitate Rule 144 sales by the Shareholder and the other Shareholder

Parties.

Upon request of the Shareholder,

the Company will deliver to the Shareholder or such other applicable Shareholder Party, as applicable, a written statement as to whether

it has complied with such informational and reporting requirements and will, within the limitations of the exemptions provided by Rule

144 (as such rule may be amended from time to time) or any similar rule enacted by the SEC and if the Shareholder has provided the Company

with reasonable assurance that such Company Shares can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 or otherwise without registration

under the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, including, if requested by the Company, all necessary documentation and evidence

(which may include an opinion of outside counsel) and agreed to such other procedures as may reasonably be required by the Company, the

Company will instruct the transfer agent to remove the restrictive legend affixed to any Company Shares to enable such shares to be sold

in compliance with Rule 144 (as such rule may be amended from time to time) or any similar rule enacted by the SEC.

15

(b)       For

purposes of facilitating sales pursuant to Rule 144A, so long as the Shareholder and any other Shareholder Party owns any Registrable

Securities, the Shareholder, each such other Shareholder Party and any prospective purchaser of the Shareholder’s or any other Shareholder

Parties’ securities will have the right to obtain from the Company, upon written request of the Shareholder prior to the time of

sale, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company filed with the SEC and such other reports and documents as the

Shareholder, the other Shareholder Parties or prospective purchaser may reasonably request in writing in availing itself of any rule or

regulation of the SEC allowing the Shareholder or any other Shareholder Party, as applicable, to sell any such securities without registration.

10.       Term. This Agreement will be effective as of the date hereof and will continue in effect thereafter until the earliest of (a) its termination

by the written consent of the parties hereto or their respective successors in interest, (b) the date on which no Registrable Securities

remain outstanding, (c) the date on which all Registrable Securities are eligible for resale under Rule 144 without volume, manner-of-sale,

or current public information restrictions and (d) the dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company.

11.       Governing

Law, Consent to Jurisdiction, Waiver of Jury Trial.

Agreement and all matters, claims or Actions (whether at Law, in equity, in Contract, in tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of

or relating to this Agreement, execution or performance of this Agreement, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the

Laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts executed in and to be performed entirely within that State, regardless of the Laws

that might otherwise govern under any applicable conflict of Laws principles.

waive the defense of an inconvenient forum or lack of jurisdiction to the maintenance of any such Action. The consents to jurisdiction

and venue set forth in this Section 11(b) shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of North

Carolina and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in this paragraph and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any

Person other than the Parties. Each Party hereto agrees that service of process upon such Party in any Action arising out of or relating

to this Agreement shall be effective if notice is given pursuant to Section 13(l). The Parties agree that a final judgment

in any such Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided

by applicable Law; provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing shall restrict any Party’s rights to seek any

post-judgment relief regarding, or any appeal from, a final trial court judgment.

(c)       EACH

PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT

ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT

MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR

16

RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS

DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) 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, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVER,

(C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL

Parties shall automatically receive the benefit of such more favorable terms.

(b)       Remedies.

20

Acts for Shareholder Parties. For so long as the Shareholder holds any Company Shares, the Shareholder shall be solely responsible

for exercising all rights (including providing all Registration Requests and any written consents contemplated by this Agreement) on behalf

of, the Shareholder, shall be valid and binding upon all other Shareholder Parties.

Securities subject to such forward sale or underlying such options, rights or warrants or other securities shall be eligible for registration

(j)       Descriptive

Headings. The descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement.

Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements

and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties and their Affiliates, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter

hereof. No provision of this Agreement shall confer upon any Person other than the Parties and their permitted assigns any rights or remedies

hereunder.
