TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Effective as of May 5, 2011, we and certain holders of our previously outstanding preferred
stock entered into an amendment (the Amendment) to the Registration Rights Agreement, dated April
10, 2007, by and among us and holders of our previously outstanding preferred stock (the
Registration Rights Agreement). All of our previously outstanding preferred stock converted into
common stock in connection with the closing of our initial public offering, which occurred in April
2010.
The Amendment provides that our stockholders that are party to the Registration Rights
Agreement will not have any right to be notified of or to request registration or inclusion of any
of our securities in any demand or piggyback registration pursuant to the Registration Rights
Agreement upon the earlier of such time as Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the Securities Act), or another similar exemption under the Securities Act is available for the
sale of all of such stockholders shares without limitation during a three-month period without
registration. The Amendment also modifies provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement relating
to waivers and further amendments under the Registration Rights Agreement and the assignability of
benefits under the Registration Rights Agreements in light of the conversion of our previously
outstanding preferred stock converted into common stock. The foregoing is a summary of the
Amendment and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of the Amendment included as
Exhibit 10.1 hereto, which is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01. A complete copy of
the Registration Rights Agreement, as amended, is included as
Exhibit 10.2 hereto.
Our stockholders that are party to the Registration Rights Agreement and the Amendment include
certain venture capital funds affiliated with Michael B. Gorman and George H. Spencer, III, each of
whom is a member of our board of directors.

Section 2. Securities Subject to this Agreement.
(a) Registrable Securities. The securities entitled to the benefits of this Agreement

Agreement when it is registered under the Securities Act and disposed of in accordance with the
registration statement covering it.
(b) Holders of Registrable Securities. A Person is deemed to be a holder of
Registrable Securities whenever that Person owns, directly or beneficially, or has the right to
acquire Registrable Securities, disregarding any legal restrictions upon the exercise of that
right.
Section 3. Demand Registration.
(a) Requests for Registration. At any time after the completion of an Initial Public
Offering, the holders of the Registrable Securities may demand that the Company register all or
part of their Registrable Securities under the Securities Act (a Demand Registration) on Forms
S-1 or S-3 (or similar forms then in effect) promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act.
Within ten days after receipt of a demand, the Company will notify in writing all holders of
Registrable Securities of the demand. Any holder who wants to include his, her or its Registrable
Securities in the Demand Registration must notify the Company within ten Business Days of receiving
the notice of the Demand Registration. Except as provided in this Section 3, the Company will
include in all Demand Registrations all Registrable Securities for which the Company receives
timely written demands for inclusion. All demands made pursuant to this Section 3(a) must specify
the number of Registrable Securities to be registered (that may not be less than 20% in the
aggregate of the then outstanding Registrable Securities on a fully diluted basis, including
Registrable Securities issued upon conversion of the then-outstanding Preferred Stock) and the
intended method of disposing of the Registrable Securities.
(b) Number of Demand Registrations. The Company is obligated to effect up to four
Demand Registrations pursuant to this Section 3, including two that may be Demand Registrations on
Form S-1 (or any successor form).
(c) Form of Registration. The Demand Registration will be on Form S-3 whenever the
Company is permitted to use the form, unless the holders of a Majority of the Registrable
Securities or the underwriter reasonably request registration on an expanded form; provided,
however, that no more than two Demand Registrations will be on Form S-1. The Company will use its
reasonable best efforts to qualify for registration on Form S-3.
(d) Registration Expenses. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses for the
Demand Registrations. A registration initiated as a Demand Registration for which the Company pays
the Registration Expenses will not count (i) toward the limit on Demand Registrations set forth in
Section 3(b) or (ii) for the purposes of the first sentence of this Section 3(d) until it becomes
effective and at least 50% of all of the Registrable Securities included in that registration have
actually been sold.
(e) Selection of Underwriters. The holders of a majority of the Registrable
Securities requested to be included in a Demand Registration may select the investment banker(s)
and manager(s) that will administer the offering, as long as the investment banker(s) and the
manager(s) are reasonably satisfactory to the Company. The Company will enter into a customary
underwriting agreement with those investment banker(s) and manager(s).
(f) Priority on Demand Registrations. If the managing underwriters give the Company
and the holders of the Registrable Securities being registered a written opinion that the number
|
|
|
|
|
|
SPS Registration Rights Agreement [Amended and Restated April 2007]
|
|
Page 3 |
of
Registrable Securities requested to be included exceeds the number of securities that can be sold,
the Company will include in the registration only the number of Registrable Securities that the
underwriters believe can be sold. The number of securities registered will be allocated on a pro
rata basis among the holders of Registrable Securities on the basis of the total number of
Registrable Securities requested to be included in the registration.
(g) Delay in Filing. The Company may delay the filing of the registration statement
in connection with a Demand Registration for a period of not more than 120 calendar days upon the
advice of the investment banker(s) and manager(s) that will administer the offering that a delay is
necessary or appropriate under the circumstances to prevent a material adverse effect on the
Company. The Company may not use this right to delay more than once during the term of this
Agreement.
(h) Limited Piggyback Right on Demand Registrations.
(i) Whenever the holders of Registrable Securities demand a Demand Registration, the Company
may notify in writing the other holders of securities of the same type as the Registrable
Securities that are to be registered not later than the earlier to occur of (A) the fifth Business
Day following the Companys receipt of notice of exercise of the Demand Registration right or (B)
45 calendar days prior to the anticipated filing date.
(ii) The Company may include in the Demand Registration securities of the same type and class
to be sold for its own account or held by other holders, but only to the extent that the managing
underwriters give the Company their written opinion that the total number or dollar amount of
securities requested to be included can be sold. If the number or dollar amount of securities
requested to be sold exceeds the amount that in the opinion of the managing underwriters can be
sold, the Company will include in the registration: (A) first, up to all Registrable Securities
(allocated on a pro rata basis among the holders of Registrable Securities on the basis of the
total number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in the registration), (B) second,
up to the full number or dollar amount of securities requested to be included for the account of
the Company, and (C) third, up to the full number or dollar amount of securities requested to be
included in the registration in excess of the number or dollar amount of Registrable Securities to
be registered (allocated on a pro rata basis among the holders of the securities in such
proportions as the Company and those holders may agree).
(iii) The holders of securities (including the Company) other than Registrable Securities to
be registered pursuant to this Section 3(h) will enter into the same agreement with the managing
underwriters as do the holders of the Registrable Securities.
(iv) If the Company registers any of its securities on its own behalf in a Demand Registration
(in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(h)), that Demand Registration will not count
(i) toward the limit on Demand Registrations set forth in Section 3(b) or (ii) for the purpose of
determining the number of Demand Registrations for which the Company is required under Section 3(h)
to pay all Registration Expenses, and the Company will pay all of the Registration Expenses of that
registration.
(v) If any of the holders of any other securities of the Company register those securities in
a Demand Registration in accordance with this Section 3(h), those holders will pay the fees and
expenses of their counsel and their share on a pro rata basis of the Registration Expenses not paid
by the Company for any reason.
Section 4. Piggyback Registrations.
(a) Right to Piggyback. Whenever the Company proposes to register any of its
securities under the Securities Act (except for the registration of securities to be offered
pursuant to an employee benefit plan on Form S-8 or pursuant to a registration made on Form S-4, or any successor
forms then in effect) at any time other than pursuant to a Demand Registration and the registration
form to

be used may be used for the registration of the Registrable Securities (a Piggyback
Registration), it will so notify in writing all holders of Registrable Securities not later than
the earlier to occur of (i) the fifth Business Day following the Companys receipt of notice of
exercise of other demand registration rights, or (ii) 30 calendar days prior to the anticipated
filing date. Subject to the provisions of Sections 4(c) and (d), the Company will include in the
Piggyback Registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received
written requests for inclusion within 15 Business Days after the applicable holders receipt of the
Companys notice. The holders of Registrable Securities may withdraw all or any part of the
Registrable Securities from a Piggyback Registration at any time before five Business Days prior to
the effective date of the Piggyback Registration. If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten
offering effected under Section 4(c), all Persons whose securities are included in the Piggyback
Registration must sell their securities on the same terms and conditions as apply to the securities
being issued and sold by the Company. If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten offering
effected under Section 4(d), all Persons whose securities are included in the Piggyback
Registration must sell their securities on the same terms and conditions as apply to the securities
being sold by the Person(s) initiating the Piggyback Registration. A registration of Registrable
Securities pursuant to this Section 4 will not be counted as a Demand Registration under Section 3.
(b) Piggyback Expenses. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection
with each Piggyback Registration.
(c) Priority on Primary Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten
primary registration on behalf of the Company and the managing underwriters give the Company their
written opinion that the total number or dollar amount of securities requested to be included in
the registration exceeds the number or dollar amount of securities that can be sold, the Company
will include the securities in the registration in the following order of priority: (i) first, all
securities the Company proposes to sell; (ii) second, up to the full number or dollar amount of
Registrable Securities requested to be included in the registration (allocated on a pro rata basis
among the holders of Registrable Securities on the basis of the dollar amount or number of
Registrable Securities requested to be included); and (iii) third, any other securities (provided
they are of the same class as the securities sold by the Company) requested to be included,
allocated among the holders of securities in such proportions as the Company and those holders may
agree.
(d) Priority on Secondary Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration is an
underwritten secondary registration on behalf of holders of the Companys securities, and the
managing underwriters give the Company their written opinion that the dollar amount or number of
securities requested to be included in the registration exceeds the dollar amount or number of
securities that can be sold, the Company will include in the registration: (i) to the extent of
50% of the number or dollar amount of securities other than Registrable Securities that in the
underwriters opinion can be sold, the securities requested to be included in the registration,
allocated among the holders of those securities in such proportions as the Company and those
holders may agree, and (ii) to the extent of the balance, the Registrable Securities requested to
be included, allocated on a pro rata basis among the holders of Registrable Securities on the basis
of the dollar amount or number of securities requested to be included. If after including all of
the Registrable Securities the underwriters determine that there are additional securities that can
be sold, then securities other than the foregoing may be added to the registration.
(e) Selection of Underwriters. If any Piggyback Registration is an underwritten
offering, the Company will select the investment banker(s) and manager(s) that will administer the
offering, as long as the investment banker(s) and manager(s) are reasonably satisfactory to the
holders of a Majority of the Registrable Securities. The Company and the holders of Registrable
Securities participating in the offering will enter into a customary underwriting agreement with
the investment banker(s) and manager(s).

(f) Other Registrations. The Company agrees that after filing a registration
statement with respect to Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3 or this Section 4 that has
not been withdrawn or abandoned, the Company will not register any of its equity securities or
securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for its equity securities under the
Securities Act, whether on its own behalf or at the request of any holder of those securities,
until at least three months has elapsed from the effective date of the previous registration. This
three-month hiatus does not apply to registrations of securities to be issued in connection with
employee benefit plans, to permit exercise or conversions of previously issued options, warrants,
or other convertible securities, or in connection with a Demand Registration.
Section 5. Restrictions on Public Sale by the Company and Others. The Company agrees
not to make any public sale or distribution of its equity securities, or any securities convertible
into or exchangeable or exercisable for its equity securities, including a sale under Regulation D
of the Securities Act or under any other exemption of the Securities Act (except as part of the
underwritten registration or pursuant to registrations on Form S-8 or any successor form), during
the seven days prior to and the 90 days after the effective date of any underwritten Demand
Registration or any underwritten Piggyback Registration unless the managing underwriters agree
otherwise. The Company also agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause each holder of at
least 5% (on a fully diluted basis) of its equity securities or any securities convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for at least 5% (on a fully diluted basis) of its equity securities
(other than Registrable Securities), purchased from the Company at any time on or after the date of
this Agreement (other than in a registered public offering) to agree not to make any public sale or
distribution of those securities, including a sale pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act
(except as part of the underwritten registration, if permitted), during the seven days prior to and
the 90 days after the effective date of the registration unless the managing underwriters agree
otherwise.
Section 6. Registration Procedures.
(a) Best Efforts. Whenever the holders of Registrable Securities request the

(v) use its best efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities

|
|
Page 7 |
underwritten public offering and satisfactory to the counsel representing the
holders of Registrable Securities being registered, addressed to the underwriters,
if any, and to the holders of Registrable Securities being registered; and
(xiv) use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations
of the SEC, and make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an

(b) Distribution of Securities. From time to time, the Company may require each
seller of Registrable Securities subject to the registration to furnish to the Company information
regarding the distribution of the securities subject to the registration.
(c) Prospectus. Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees by acquisition of those
securities that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of any event of the kind described in
Section 6(a)(vii), the holder will discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until the
holder receives copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 6(a)(vii).
In addition, if the Company requests, the holder will deliver to the Company (at the Companys
expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in the holders possession, of the
current prospectus covering the Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of the notice. If
the Company gives any such notice, the time period mentioned in Section 6(a)(iii) will be extended
by the number of days elapsing between the date of notice and the date that each seller receives
the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 6(a)(iii).
(d) Duty to Provide Information. Whenever the holders of Registrable Securities have
requested that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to this Agreement, those holders
will notify the Company, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered
under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event that as to any holder of Registrable
Securities is (i) to its respective knowledge, and (ii) uniquely within its respective knowledge,
and (iii) solely as to matters concerning that holder of the Registrable Securities, as a result of
which the prospectus included in the registration statement contains an untrue statement of a
material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.
(e) Market Stand-Off Agreement. Each Investor hereby agrees that during a period
not to exceed 180 days and to the extent specified by the Company and an underwriter of Common

Company filed under the Securities Act, it will not, directly or indirectly, sell, offer to sell,
contract to sell (including, without limitation, any short sale), grant any option to purchase, or
otherwise transfer or dispose of (other than to donees who agree to be similarly bound) any
securities of the Company held by it at any time during that period, except Common Stock included
in the registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing:
(i) the agreement provided by this Section will apply only to the first
registration statement of the Company that covers Common Stock (or other securities)
to be sold on its behalf to the public in an underwritten offering; and
(ii) this Section will not be effective unless all officers and directors of
the Company, each holder of greater than 1% of the Companys Common Stock (on a
fully converted basis), and all other Persons with registration rights (whether or
not pursuant to this Agreement) enter into similar agreements.
In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions
with respect to the securities (assuming exercise of all outstanding options, warrants, and
convertible

securities) of the Company held by each Investor (and the shares or securities of every other
Person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end of that period.
Section 7. Registration Expenses.
(a) Defined. All Registration Expenses incident to the Companys performance of or
compliance with this Agreement will be paid as provided in this Agreement. The term Registration
Expenses means all expenses incurred in connection with any registration, filing, or qualification
of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement, including (without limitation) all
registration filing fees, professional fees, and other expenses of compliance with federal, state,
and other securities laws (including fees and disbursements of counsel for the underwriters in
connection with state or other securities law qualifications and registrations); printing expenses,
messenger, telephone, and delivery expenses; fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and

and disbursements of all independent certified public accountants (including the expenses of any
audit or cold comfort letters required by or incident to performance of the obligations
contemplated by this Agreement).
(b) Legal Fees and Expenses. In connection with each registration for which the
Company is required to pay the Registration Expenses of the holders of Registrable Securities, the
Company will directly pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of one law firm, selected by the
holders of a Majority of the Registrable Securities participating in such registration, to serve as
counsel to all the holders.
(c) Expenses Not Covered. To the extent the Company is not required to pay
Registration Expenses, each holder of securities included in any registration will pay those
Registration Expenses allocable to the holders of securities so included, and any Registration
Expenses not allocable will be borne by all sellers in proportion to the number of securities each
registers.
Section 8. Indemnification.
(a) Indemnification by Company. To the full extent permitted by law, the Company
agrees to indemnify each holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and directors, and each
Person who controls the holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act)
against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses caused by any untrue or allegedly
untrue statement of material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, or
preliminary prospectus or any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or any violation by the
Company of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation thereunder applicable to the Company and
relating to the action or inaction of the Company in connection with any registration,
qualification or compliance, except to the extent the untrue statement or omission resulted from
information that the holder furnished in writing to the Company expressly for use therein or by the
holders failure to deliver a copy of the registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or
supplements thereto to any purchaser after the Company has furnished the holder with a sufficient
number of copies of the relevant documents. In connection with a firm or best efforts underwritten
offering, to the extent required by the managing underwriters, the Company will indemnify the
underwriters, their officers and directors, and each Person who controls the underwriters (within
the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act), to the extent customary in such
agreements.
(b) Indemnification by Holders of Securities. In connection with any registration
statement, each participating holder of Registrable Securities will furnish to the Company in
writing the information and affidavits that the Company reasonably requests for use in connection
with any registration statement or prospectus and each holder agrees to indemnify, to the extent
permitted by law, the Company, its directors and officers, and each Person who controls the Company
(within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act) against any losses, claims,
liabilities and expenses resulting from any untrue or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact
or any omission or alleged omission
of a
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
Page 9 |
material fact required to be stated in the registration statement or prospectus or any amendment
thereof or supplement thereto necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to
the extent that the untrue statement or omission is contained in or omitted from any information or
affidavit the holder furnished in writing, or resulting from the holders failure to deliver a copy
of the registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto to any
purchaser after the Company has furnished the holder with a sufficient number of copies of the
relevant documents; provided, however, that the obligations of any holder of Registrable Securities
hereunder will be limited to an amount equal to the proceeds to such holder of the sale of
securities pursuant to the applicable registration statement as contemplated herein.
(c) Indemnification Proceedings. Any Person entitled to indemnification under this
Agreement will (i) give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which
it seeks indemnification, and (ii) unless in the indemnified partys reasonable judgment a conflict
of interest may exist between the indemnified and indemnifying parties with respect to the claim,
permit the indemnifying party to assume the defense of the claim with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the indemnified party. If the indemnifying party does not assume the defense, the
indemnifying party will not be liable for any settlement made without its consent (but that consent
may not be unreasonably withheld). No indemnifying party will consent to entry of any judgment or
will enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term the claimants or
plaintiffs release of the indemnified party from all liability concerning the claim or litigation.
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 the indemnifying party with respect to the claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any
indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between the indemnified party and any other
indemnified party with respect to the claim, in which event the indemnifying party will be
obligated to pay the fees and expenses of additional counsel.
(d) Contribution to Joint Liability. In order to provide for just and equitable
contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either (i) any holder
of Registrable Securities exercising rights under this Agreement, or any controlling Person of any
such holder, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 8 but it is judicially
determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the
expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification
may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact this Section 8 provides for
indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the
part of any such selling holder or any such controlling Person in circumstances for which
indemnification is provided under this Section 8; then, and in each such case, the Company and such
holder will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities that they may be
subject to (after contribution to others) in such proportion so that such holder is responsible for
the portion represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its Registered
Securities offered by the registration statement bears to the public offering price of all
securities offered by such registration statement, and the Company is responsible for the remaining
portion; provided, however, that in any such case, (A) no such holder will be required to
contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such Registered Securities
offered by it pursuant to such registration statement; and (B) no Person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to
contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
Section 9. Rule 144 and Rule 144A; Company Obligations. If the Company files a
registration statement pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act or Section 12 of the
Exchange Act, the Company covenants that it will file the reports required to be filed by it under
the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder
(or, if the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any holder
of Registrable

all to the extent required from time to time, to enable the holder to sell Registrable Securities
without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by
(i) Rule 144 under the Securities Act as amended from time to time, or (ii) any similar rule or
regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the request of any holder of Registrable Securities,
the Company will deliver to the holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with Rule
144 or any successor rule requirements. The Company also covenants that it will provide all such
information and it will take such further action as any holder of Registrable Securities reasonably
may request to enable the holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the
Securities Act within the limitation of Rule 144A under the Securities Act, as amended from time to
time, or any successor rule requirements.
Section 10. Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No Person may participate in
any underwritten registration without (a) agreeing to sell securities on the basis provided in
underwriting arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements
(the holders of the Registrable Securities in a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 3(d) and
the Company in a Piggyback Registration pursuant to Section 4(e)), and (b) completing and executing
all questionnaires, powers of attorneys, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents

Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective

Agreement; provided, however, the Company may not delegate its responsibilities or assign its
rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the holders of at least 66.67% of
the then issued and outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a series.
(e) Cooperation. The parties agree that after execution of this Agreement they will

together as a class, the Company will not enter into any agreement with respect to its securities
that will grant to any Person registration rights that are senior to, are in conflict with, or will
