By this power of attorney, each Grantor hereby revokes all previous powers of attorney granted by him, her or it to any Attorney-In-Fact or any other employee, representative or agent of Canaan Partners relating to the matters described above.

2.    Effective Date and Termination. This power of attorney shall be effective as to each Grantor as of such Grantor’s Effective Date and shall remain in full force and effect with respect to each Grantor and each Attorney-In-Fact until:

(a)    in the case of any Grantor that is an individual, the earlier of the date on which this power of attorney is revoked in writing by such Grantor solely as it relates to himself or herself and such Grantor’s Termination Date (as defined below);

(b)    in the case of any Grantor that is an entity, the earlier of the date on which this power of attorney is revoked in writing by such Grantor solely as it relates to itself and the filing by such entity of a certificate of cancellation or notice of dissolution with the jurisdiction in which it was organized evidencing such entity’s complete dissolution and termination under the laws of such jurisdiction; and
