AMENDED AND RESTATED RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL AND CO-SALE AGREEMENT This Amended and Restated Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement (the "Agreement") is made and entered into as of September 10, 2012, by and among Foundation Medicine, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), each of the persons and entities listed on Schedule A hereto (each referred to herein as an "Investor" and collectively as the "Investors"), each of the founders of the Company and each of the employees of the Company holding shares and/or options representing one percent (1%) or more of the Stock (as defined below) of the Company listed on Schedule B hereto (for purposes of this Agreement, each referred to herein as a "Founder" and collectively as the "Founders"). For clarity, no Investor shall be deemed to be a Founder for purposes of this Agreement, regardless of its current or future ownership of Common Stock. Recitals WHEREAS, the Founders are the beneficial owners of or otherwise entitled to acquire shares of the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Common Stock"), of the Company; WHEREAS, the Investors are purchasing shares of the Company's Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Series B Preferred Stock") pursuant to that certain Series B Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") of even date herewith; WHEREAS, the Company, certain Investors and certain Founders have previously entered into that certain Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement dated as of March 30, 2010 (as amended, the "Prior Agreement") and desire to amend and restate the Prior Agreement and to accept the rights created pursuant hereto in lieu of the rights created under the Prior Agreement; WHEREAS, the obligations of the Investors in the Purchase Agreement are conditioned upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement; and WHEREAS, to induce certain Investors to enter into the Purchase Agreement and purchase shares of Series B Preferred Stock thereunder, the Company and the Founders have agreed to enter into this Agreement with the Investors. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of these premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 1. Definitions. 1.1 "Preferred Stock" shall mean the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock. 1 L1804384151.6 EFTA01143369 1.2 "Series A Preferred Stock" shall mean the Company's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share. 1.3 "Stock" shall mean and include all shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding at the relevant time plus (a) all shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon exercise of any options, warrants and other rights of any kind that are then exercisable, and (b) all shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon conversion of (i) any convertible securities, including, without limitation, Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and debt securities, if any, then outstanding that are by their terms then convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or (ii) any such convertible securities issuable upon exercise of outstanding options, warrants or other rights that are then exercisable. 1.4 i°Transfer" shall include any sale, assignment, encumbrance, hypothecation, pledge, conveyance in trust, gift, transfer by request, devise or descent, or other transfer or disposition of any kind, including, but not limited to, transfers to receivers, levying creditors, trustees or receivers in bankruptcy proceedings or general assignees for the benefit of creditors, whether voluntary or by operation of law, directly or indirectly, of any of the Stock. 1.5 "Transfer Stock" shall mean shares of Common Stock owned by a Founder, or issued to a Founder after the date hereof (including, without limitation, in connection with any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, or the like), but does not include any shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of Preferred Stock. 2. Transfers by a Founder. 2.1 Notice of Transfer. Subject to Section 3 herein, if a Founder proposes to Transfer any shares of Transfer Stock (such Founder, the "Transferring Founder"), then the Transferring Founder shall give written notice (the "First Refusal Notice") to the Company and each of the Investors prior to the closing of such Transfer. The First Refusal Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed Transfer including, without limitation, the number of shares of Transfer Stock to be transferred (the "Offered Shares"), the nature of such Transfer, the price, the form of consideration, the name and address of each prospective purchaser or transferee and any other material terms and conditions. Upon the request of the Company or any Investor, the Transferring Founder will promptly furnish to the Company and to the Investors such other information as may be reasonably requested to establish that the offer and the prospective purchaser or transferee are bona fide. 2.2 Company Right of First Refusal. Subject to Section 3 herein, for a period of fifteen (15) days following receipt of any First Refusal Notice described in Section 2.1, the Company shall have the right to purchase all or a portion of the Offered Shares on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the First Refusal Notice. The Company's purchase right shall be exercised by written notice (the "Company Notice") and delivered to the Transferring Founder within such fifteen (15) day period. If the Company desires to exercise its purchase right, the Company shall effect the purchase of the Offered Shares, including payment of the purchase price, by the later of (a) the date specified in the First Refusal Notice as the intended date of the proposed Transfer of the Transfer Stock and (b) forty-five (45) days after delivery of 2 LIB04384151.6 EFTA01143370 the First Refusal Notice, and at such time the Transferring Founder shall deliver to the Company the certificate(s) representing the Transfer Stock to be purchased by the Company, each certificate to be properly endorsed for transfer. If the consideration proposed to be paid for the Transfer Stock includes consideration other than cash consideration, the fair market value of such consideration will be determined by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board of Directors") in good faith and set forth in the Company Notice, which determination will be binding on the Company and the Transferring Founder and the Company may elect to pay the fair market value of such consideration in cash. The payment of the purchase price for the Transfer Stock purchased by the Company exercising its right of first refusal will be made, at the option of the Company, (i) in cash (by check or wire transfer); (ii) by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the Transferring Founder to the Company; or (iii) by any combination of the foregoing. If the Company does not exercise its purchase right within such fifteen (15) day period with respect to all of the Offered Shares then the Company shall, by the last day of such period, deliver written notice of that fact to each Investor (the "Investor Notice"). The Investor Notice sent to each Investor shall specify the number of Offered Shares not purchased by the Company (the "Remaining Company Shares"). 2.3 Investors Right of First Refusal. (a) Subject to Section 3 herein, for a period of fifteen (15) days following receipt of any Investor Notice described in Section 2.2, each Investor shall have the right to purchase all of his or its Pro Rata Fraction (as defined below) of the Remaining Company Shares subject to such Investor Notice on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the First Refusal Notice. Each Investor's purchase right shall be exercised by written notice (the "Exercise Notice") and delivered to the Transferring Founder within such fifteen (15) day period. If an Investor desires to exercise his or its purchase right, such Investor shall effect the purchase of such Investor's Pro Rata Fraction of the Remaining Company Shares, including payment by such Investor of the purchase price, by the later of (a) the date specified in the First Refusal Notice as the intended date of the proposed Transfer of the Transfer Stock and (b) forty-five (45) days after delivery of the First Refusal Notice, and at such time the Transferring Founder shall deliver to the Company the certificate(s) representing the Transfer Stock to be purchased by the Investor(s), each certificate to be properly endorsed for transfer. If the consideration proposed to be paid for the Transfer Stock includes consideration other than cash consideration, the fair market value of such consideration will be determined by the Board of Directors in good faith and set forth in the Investor Notice, which determination will be binding on the Investor and the Transferring Founder and the Investor may elect to pay the fair market value of such consideration in cash. The payment of the purchase price for the Transfer Stock purchased by the Investor(s) exercising his/its right of first refusal will be made in cash (by check or wire transfer). An Investor's "Pro Rata Fraction" shall be equal to the product obtained by multiplying the total number of Remaining Company Shares by a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of shares of Preferred Stock (on an as-converted to Common Stock basis) owned by such Investor, and the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Preferred Stock (on an as-converted to Common Stock basis) held by all the Investors, in each case as of the date of the First Refusal Notice. 3 LIB04384151.6 EFTA01143371 (b) The Transferring Founder shall promptly notify the Investors (no later than five (5) days after the expiration of the fifteen (15) day period specified in Section 2.3(a) above) in the event the Investors have exercised their purchase right with respect to some but not all of the Remaining Company Shares, in which case those Investors who have exercised their purchase right within the fifteen (15) day period specified in Section 2.3(a) shall have an additional purchase right, for a period of ten (10) days succeeding the expiration of such fifteen (15) day period, to purchase all or any part of the balance of such Remaining Company Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in the First Refusal Notice. Any such Investor may exercise the purchase right in this Section 2.3(b) by the delivery of written notice to the Transferring Founder. In the event there are two or more such Investors that choose to exercise the purchase right in this Section 2.3(b) for a total number of Remaining Company Shares in excess of the number available, the Remaining Company Shares available for each such Investor's purchase right shall be allocated to such Investors pro rata based on the number of shares of Preferred Stock (on an as-converted to Common Stock basis) owned by the Investors so electing. (c) Subject to the Investors' right of co-sale in Section 2.4 herein, to the extent that the Company and the Investors do not exercise their rights to purchase under Sections 2.2 and 2.3, respectively, all of the Offered Shares specified in the First Refusal Notice, then the Company and the Investors shall be deemed to have forfeited any right to purchase such Transfer Stock, and the Transferring Founder may, not later than ninety (90) days following delivery to the Company of the First Refusal Notice, Transfer all, but not less than all, of the Offered Shares covered by the First Refusal Notice to the proposed purchaser upon the same terms and conditions (including the purchase price) as those described in the First Refusal Notice. Any proposed Transfer on different terms and conditions than those described in the First Refusal Notice, as well as any subsequent proposed Transfer of any Transfer Stock by the Transferring Founder, shall again be subject to the first right of first refusal of the Company and the secondary right of first refusal of the Investors and shall require compliance by the Transferring Founder with the procedures described in this Section 2. 2.4 Right of Co-Sale. (a) Subject to Section 3 herein, in the event the Company and the Investors elect not to exercise their right to purchase all of the Transfer Stock under Sections 2.2 and 2.3, respectively, then, following the expiration of the Investors' right of first refusal set forth in Section 2.3 (including expiration of the over-allotment period set forth in Section 2.3(b)), the Transferring Founder shall promptly deliver to the Company and each Investor prior to the closing of the proposed Transfer a written notice (the "Co- Sale Notice"), which Co-Sale Notice shall set forth the same information required to be included in the First Refusal Notice described in Section 2.1. Each Investor shall have the right, exercisable upon written notice to the Transferring Founder with a copy to the Company within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Co-Sale Notice, to participate in such Transfer of Transfer Stock on the same terms and conditions as is specified in the Co-Sale Notice (provided that if an Investor wishes to sell Preferred Stock, the price set forth in the Co-Sale Notice shall be appropriately adjusted based on the conversion ratio 4 LIBO4384151.6 EFTA01143372 of such series of Preferred Stock into Common Stock pursuant to the Company's certificate of incorporation). Such notice delivered by the Investor shall indicate the number of shares of capital stock (up to that number of shares determined under Section 2.4(b)) such Investor wishes to sell under its right to participate. To the extent one or more of the Investors exercises such right of participation in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below, the number of shares of Transfer Stock that the Transferring Founder may sell in the transaction shall be correspondingly reduced. (b) Each Investor may sell all or any part of that number of shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying; (i) the aggregate number of shares of Transfer Stock covered by the Co-Sale Notice by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Stock owned by such Investor at the time of the Co-Sale Notice and the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Stock owned, in the aggregate, by all of the Investors at the time of the Co-Sale Notice plus the number of shares of Transfer Stock held by the Transferring Founder. (c) Each Investor who elects to participate in the Transfer pursuant to this Section 2.4 (a "Co-Sale Participant") shall effect its participation in the Transfer by promptly delivering to the Transferring Founder for transfer to the prospective purchaser one or more certificates, properly endorsed for transfer, which represent: (i) the number of shares of Common Stock which such Co- Sale Participant elects to sell; or (ii) that number of shares of Preferred Stock which is at such time convertible into the number of shares of Common Stock which such Co-Sale Participant elects to sell; provided, that unless approved by the Board of Directors, the prospective purchaser will not be assigned any rights under that certain Amended and Restated Investors' Rights Agreement, by and among the Company and the other parties thereto dated as of even date herewith; and provided, further that if the prospective purchaser objects to the delivery of shares of Preferred Stock in lieu of shares of Common Stock, such Co-Sale Participant shall first convert such shares of Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock and deliver such shares of Common Stock as provided herein. The Company agrees to make any such conversion or exchange concurrent with and contingent upon the actual transfer of such shares to the purchaser. (d) The stock certificate or certificates that the Co-Sale Participant delivers to the Transferring Founder pursuant to Section 2.4(c) shall be transferred to the prospective purchaser in consummation of the sale of the Transfer Stock pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in the Co-Sale Notice, and the Transferring Founder shall concurrently therewith remit or direct payment to such Co-Sale Participant that portion of the sale proceeds to which such Co-Sale Participant is entitled by reason of its participation in such sale. To the extent that any prospective purchaser prohibits such assignment or otherwise refuses to purchase shares or other securities from a Co-Sale Participant exercising its rights of co-sale hereunder, the Transferring Founder shall not sell to such prospective purchaser any Transfer Stock unless and until, simultaneously with such sale, the Transferring Founder shall purchase such shares or other securities 5 LIB04384151.6 EFTA01143373 from such Co-Sale Participant on the same terms and conditions specified in the Co-Sale Notice. (e) The exercise or non-exercise of the rights of any Investor hereunder to participate in one or more Transfers of Transfer Stock made by any Transferring Founder shall not adversely affect such Investor's right to participate in subsequent Transfers of Transfer Stock subject to Section 2. (f) To the extent that the Investors do not elect to participate in the sale of the Transfer Stock subject to the Co-Sale Notice, the Transferring Founder may, not later than seventy-five (75) days following delivery to the Company and each Investor of the Co-Sale Notice, Transfer all, but not less than all, of the Offered Shares specified in the Co-Sale Notice to the proposed purchaser upon the same terms and conditions (including the purchase price) as those described in the Co-Sale Notice. Any proposed Transfer on different terms and conditions than those described in the Co-Sale Notice, as well as any subsequent proposed Transfer of any of the Transfer Stock by the Transferring Founder, shall again be subject to the co-sale rights of the Investors and shall require compliance by the Transferring Founder with the procedures described in this Section 2. 3. Exempt Transfers. 3.1 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the right of first refusal of the Company and the Investors and the co-sale rights of the Investors set forth in Section 2 above shall not apply to: (i) in the case of a Founder that is a natural person, any Transfer of Transfer Stock by such Founder made for bona fide estate planning purposes, either during his or her lifetime or on death by will or intestacy to the Founders' ancestors, descendants, siblings or spouse, or a trust or family limited partnership for the benefit of such persons or the Founder; (ii) in the case of a Founder that is an entity, upon a transfer by such Founder to its stockholders, members, partners or other equity holders, (iii) any Transfer of Transfer Stock by a Founder that is approved by the Investors holding at least two-thirds of the Stock then held by the Investors; or (iv) any repurchase of Transfer Stock from a Founder by the Company pursuant to agreements under which the Company has the option to repurchase such Transfer Stock upon the occurrence of certain events, such as termination of employment or in connection with the exercise by the Company of any rights of first refusal; provided that in the event of any transfer made pursuant to one of the exemptions provided by clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above, (A) the Founder shall inform the Company of such pledge, Transfer or gift prior to effecting it, and (B) the pledgee, transferee or donee shall enter into a written agreement to be bound by and comply with all provisions of this Agreement, as if it were an original Founder hereunder, including without limitation Section 2. Any Transfer Stock transferred pursuant to one of the exemptions provided by clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above shall remain "Stock" hereunder, and such pledgee, transferee or donee shall be treated as the "Founder" for purposes of this Agreement. 6 LIB04384151.6 EFTA01143374 4. Prohibited Transfers. 4.1 Put Option. (a) In the event that a Founder should sell any Transfer Stock in contravention of the co-sale rights of each Investor under Section 2.4 of this Agreement (a "Prohibited Transfer"), each Investor, in addition to such other remedies as may be available at law, in equity or hereunder, shall have the put option provided below, and such Founder shall be bound by the applicable provisions of such option. (b) In the event of a Prohibited Transfer, each Investor shall have the right to sell to such Founder the type and number of shares of Stock equal to the number of shares each Investor would have been entitled to transfer to the purchaser under Section 2.4 hereof had the Prohibited Transfer been effected pursuant to and in compliance with the terms hereof. Such sale shall be made on the following terms and conditions: (i) The price per share at which the shares of Stock are to be sold to such Founder shall be equal to the price per share paid by the purchaser to such Founder in such Prohibited Transfer. (ii) Within ninety (90) days after the date on which an Investor received notice of the Prohibited Transfer or otherwise became aware of the Prohibited Transfer, such Investor shall, if exercising the option created hereby, deliver to such Founder the certificate or certificates representing the shares to be sold, each certificate to be properly endorsed for transfer. (iii) Such Founder shall, upon receipt of the certificate or certificates for the shares to be sold by an Investor pursuant to this Section 4.1, pay the aggregate purchase price therefor in immediately available funds. 4.2 If any Founder becomes obligated to sell any Transfer Stock to the Company or any Investor under this Agreement and fails to deliver such Transfer Stock in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Company and/or such Investor may, at its option, in addition to all other remedies as may be available at law, in equity or hereunder, send to such Founder the purchase price for such Transfer Stock as is herein specified and transfer to the name of the Company or such Investor (or request that the Company effect such transfer in the name of an Investor) on the Company's books the certificate(s) representing the Transfer Stock to be sold. 4.3 No Founder shall transfer any Transfer Stock to (a) any entity which, in the determination of the Board of Directors, directly or indirectly competes with the Company or (b) any customer, distributor or supplier of the Company, if the Board of Directors should determine that such transfer would result in such customer, distributor or supplier receiving information that would place the Company at a competitive disadvantage with respect to such customer, distributor or supplier. 7 L1804384151.6 EFTA01143375 4.4 Any attempt by any Founder to Transfer any Transfer Stock in violation of any provision of this Agreement will be void. The Company will not (a) transfer on its books any Transfer Stock that has been sold, gifted or otherwise transferred in violation of this Agreement or (b) treat as owner of such Transfer Stock, or accord the right to vote to, or pay dividends to, any purchaser, donee or other transferee to whom such Transfer Stock may have been so transferred. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that any breach of this Agreement would cause substantial harm to the other parties hereto for which monetary damages alone could not adequately compensate. Therefore, the parties hereto unconditionally and irrevocably agree that any non-breaching party hereto shall be entitled to seek protective orders, injunctive relief and other remedies available at law or in equity (including, without limitation, seeking specific performance or the rescission of purchases, sales and other transfers of Transfer Stock not made in strict compliance with this Agreement). 5. Market Stand-Off Agreement. 5.1 If requested by the Company and an underwriter of an offering of shares of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company, each Founder hereby agrees that such Founder shall not sell or otherwise transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, of any shares of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company held by such Founder (other than those included in such offering) during the one hundred eighty (180) day period following the effective date of the Company's initial public offering, or, if requested by the managing underwriter for such initial public offering, such longer period of time as is necessary for compliance with the rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority; provided, however, that such extension shall not exceed thirty-four (34) days following the expiration of the original one hundred eighty (180) day period. The obligations described in this Section 5 shall not apply to a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-1 or Form S-8 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future, or a registration relating solely to a transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions and may stamp each such certificate with the legend set forth in Section 6.1 hereof with respect to the shares of Common Stock (or other securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of such one hundred eighty (180) day (or longer, if applicable, as described above) period. Each Holder agrees to execute a market standoff agreement with said underwriters in customary form consistent with the provisions of this Section 5. 6. Legend. 6.1 Each certificate representing shares of Transfer Stock now or hereafter owned by a Founder or issued to any person in connection with a Transfer pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of Section 3.1 hereof shall be endorsed with substantially the following legend: "THE SALE, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE, INCLUDING A LOCK-UP PERIOD OF UP TO 180 DAYS (SUBJECT TO EXTENSION) IN THE EVENT OF A PUBLIC OFFERING, AS SET FORTH IN A RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL AND CO-SALE AGREEMENT BY AND AMONG THE STOCKHOLDER, THE COMPANY AND CERTAIN 8 LIBO4384151.6 EFTA01143376 HOLDERS OF STOCK OF THE COMPANY. A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY." 6.2 Each Founder agrees that the Company may instruct its transfer agent to impose transfer restrictions on the shares represented by certificates bearing the legend referred to in Section 6.1 above to enforce the provisions of this Agreement and the Company agrees to promptly do so. The legend shall be removed at the request of any Founder following termination of this Agreement. 7. Miscellaneous. 7.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as to matters within the scope thereof, and as to all other matters shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to its principles of conflicts of laws. 7.2 Amendment; Waiver.

Any provision and/or the observance thereof may be waived by the individual or entity entitled to the benefits of such provision. In addition, any provision and/or the observance thereof for the benefit of the Investors may be waived on behalf of all Investors by the Investors holding at least two-thirds of the capital stock (on an as- converted to Common Stock basis) then held by the Investors and any provision and/or the observance thereof for the benefit of the Founders may be waived on behalf of all Founders by Founders holding a majority-in-interest of the Common Stock then held by all Founders then employed by or in a consulting relationship with the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the consent of the Founders shall not be required for any amendment, modification, termination or waiver if such amendment, modification, termination or waiver does not apply to the Founders or if the sole purpose of such amendment or modification is to include additional purchasers of Preferred Stock (whether such Preferred Stock is currently or hereafter designated) as "Investors", (b) this Agreement may not be amended, modified or terminated, and the observance of any term hereunder may not be waived, with respect to any Investor without the written consent of such Investor unless such amendment, modification, termination or waiver applies to all Investors in the same fashion, and (c) the Company may update Schedule A and Schedule B to reflect ministerial changes, Transfers permitted by this Agreement, and the admission of any additional parties to this Agreement in accordance with the provisions and restrictions of Section 7.3 and 7.9 hereof without any further consent of the parties hereto.

This Agreement, and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder, shall not be assigned, transferred, delegated or sublicensed by any 9 LIB04384151.6 EFTA01143377 Investor without the prior written consent of the Company except in connection with: (A) a transfer of shares of Preferred Stock and/or Common Stock by an Investor to any of its affiliates (including an affiliated fund managed by the same manager or managing member or general partner or management company or by an entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with such manager or managing member or general partner or management company, each an "Affiliated Fund") or any other Person that shares a common investment advisor with such Investor; (B) a transfer of shares of Preferred Stock and/or Common Stock by an Investor that is a partnership, limited liability company or corporation to a partner, limited partner, retired partner, member, retired member or stockholder of such Investor or an Affiliated Fund; (C) a transfer of Preferred Stock and/or Common Stock by gift, will or intestate succession of any Investor to his or her spouse or to the siblings, lineal descendants or ancestors of such partner or his or her spouse or (D) a transfer of shares of Preferred Stock and/or Common Stock by an Investor exercising its co-sale rights under this Agreement, if in each transfer under clauses (A), (B) or (C), the prospective transferee agrees in all such instances in writing to be subject to the terms hereof to the same extent as if he or she were an original Investor hereunder. This Agreement, and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder, shall not be assigned, transferred, delegated or sublicensed by any Founder without the prior written consent of the Company and the Investors holding at least two-thirds of the Preferred Stock (on an as-converted to Common Stock basis) then held by the Investors. Any attempt by a Founder without such permission to assign, transfer or delegate any rights, duties or obligations that arise under this Agreement shall be void.
