by reason of death, permanent disability or adjudicated incompetency, ten days after the appointment of a Legal Representative (or, in each case, if such day is not a business day, then the first business day thereafter) (such later date, the “Scheduled Closing Date”). At the Closing, the Employee shall sell, convey, transfer, assign and deliver to the Company all right, title and interest in and to the Called Shares, which shall constitute (and, at the Closing, the Employee shall represent, warrant and certify the same to the Company in writing) good and unencumbered title to such shares, free and clear of all liens, security interests, encumbrances and adverse claims of any kind and nature (other than those in favor of the Company and the NMP Entities pursuant to this Agreement), and shall deliver to the Company a certificate representing the shares duly endorsed for transfer, or accompanied by appropriate stock transfer powers duly executed, and with all necessary transfer tax stamps affixed thereto at the expense of the Employee, and the Company shall deliver to the Employee, in full payment of the purchase price for the Called Shares, either a wire transfer to an account designated by the Employee or a cashier’s, certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Employee (the method of payment to be at the option of the Company), in an amount equal to the Call Price multiplied by the aggregate number of Called Shares.

If at any time the Prohibitions shall cease to be applicable to any portion of the Called Shares not purchased, then the Company shall purchase such portion on the first practicable date on which the Company is permitted to do so.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.2, if at any time prior to any Closing under this Section 3.2 the Company shall become entitled pursuant to Section 4.2 to purchase any shares of Common Stock then held by the Employee, the Company, at its option, shall be relieved of all of its obligations under Section 3.2 with respect to the purchase of any Called Shares and the Company’s obligations with respect to the purchase of such shares of Common Stock shall be governed by Section 4.2.

(i) If, on the date the Employee’s employment Terminates, the Common Stock is listed or traded in a manner referred to in the definition of “Closing Price”, then the Fair Market Value per share of the Employee’s Common Stock shall equal the average of the daily

Closing Prices of the Common Stock on the twenty consecutive trading days immediately preceding such date; otherwise, the Fair Market Value per share of the Employee’s Common Stock shall be the per share fair market value of such Common Stock as determined in good faith by the Board, and such determination shall be final and binding on the Company and the Employee.

The Company shall notify the Employee in writing of the NMP Entities’ intention to effect such a sale to a Third Party, the identity of the Third Party and the nature and per share amount of consideration to be paid by the Third Party, at least ten days before the closing of any such proposed sale. The NMP Entities shall provide such information to the Company as promptly as practicable to enable the Company to comply with the foregoing sentence. Any sale of shares of Common Stock by the Employee pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall be for the same consideration per share, on substantially the same terms and subject to substantially the same conditions as the sale of shares of capital stock owned by the NMP Entities; provided, that the consideration per share, terms and conditions shall be adjusted as necessary to the extent the Employee and the NMP Entities are selling different types of capital stock; and provided, further, that there shall be no adjustment in the consideration per share in the event that the NMP Entities are also selling shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The Employee will be entitled to sell the same percentage of the Employee’s Common Stock as the NMP Entities sell of their shares of capital stock in such sale (determined on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock owned and the aggregate number of such shares of Common Stock being sold by the NMP Entities (assuming conversion, exchange or exercise of all Convertible Securities held by the NMP Entities and the Employee)). If the Employee sells any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section 3.3, the Employee shall pay and be responsible for the Employee’s proportionate share of the Expenses of Sale and the Sale Obligations.

Securities held by the NMP Entities and the Employee)). The Company shall notify the Employee in writing of the NMP Entities’ intention to effect such Public Offering at least ten business days, or such shorter time as the Company deems practicable, before the effective date of the registration statement relating to such Public Offering (the “Section 3.4 Notice”) and shall cause the Employee’s shares to be sold in such Public Offering to be included therein. If the Employee wishes to participate in such Public Offering, the Employee shall notify the Company in writing within three business days after receipt of the Section 3.4 Notice of the Employee’s intention to participate in such Public Offering, including the number of shares with respect to which the Employee will so participate. Any failure by the Employee to so notify the Company within such three business-day period shall be deemed an election by the Employee not to participate in such Public Offering with respect to any of the Employee’s shares. If the Employee sells any shares pursuant to this Section 3.4, the Employee shall pay and be responsible for the Employee’s proportionate share of the Expenses of Sale and the Sale Obligations, including indemnifying the underwriters of such Public Offering, on a proportionate basis, to the same extent as the NMP Entities are required to indemnify such underwriters. If the Employee sells any shares pursuant to this Section 3.4, the Employee shall be entitled to all of the rights and be bound by all of the obligations of a “Participating Holder” under Sections 2.1(g), 2.3(a)(iii), 2.3(a)(vi), 2.3(a)(viii)(to the extent such section relates to the provision of an earnings statement), 2.3(a)(xix), 2.3(a)(xx), the last two sentences of Section 2.4(a) and Sections 2.4(b) and 2.6 of the Investor Rights Agreement, and shall be entitled to all of the rights and be bound by all of the obligations of a “Holder” under Sections 2.2(b), 2.3(c), 2.6 and 2.8 of the Investor Rights Agreement.

If the Company requests that the Employee take any of the actions referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the previous sentence, the Employee shall take such action promptly but in any event within five days following the date of such request.

(c) If the NMP Entities sell all or any portion of the shares of Common Stock owned by the NMP Entities in a transaction effected under Rule 144, the NMP Entities shall give

written notice to the Company (the “Rule 144 Notice”) within five business days following such sale, with such notice stating the date of such sale and the percentage of shares sold by the NMP Entities and the Company shall promptly notify the Employee of such Rule 144 Notice. For a period of 30 days after the date of the Rule 144 Notice, the Employee shall be entitled to sell, in a transaction effected under Rule 144 (if the sale by the Employee otherwise meets the requirements of Rule 144), the same percentage of the Employee’s shares of Common Stock as the NMP Entities have sold of their shares of Common Stock in the transaction effected under Rule 144 (determined on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock owned and the aggregate number of such shares of Common Stock being sold by the NMP Entities (assuming conversion, exchange or exercise of all Convertible Securities held by the NMP Entities and the Employee)).

3.5 Required Participation in Sale of Capital Stock by the NMP Entities. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the NMP Entities shall propose to sell (including by exchange, in a business combination or otherwise) all or any portion of their shares of capital stock in a bona fide arm’s-length transaction, or the Company proposes to sell or otherwise transfer for value all or substantially all of the stock, assets or business (whether by merger, sale or otherwise) of the Company, (i) the NMP Entities, at their option, may require, in the case of a sale of capital stock owned by the NMP Entities, that the Employee sell a proportionate amount of the Employee’s shares of Common Stock (determined on the same basis described in Section 3.3) and waive any appraisal right that the Employee may have in connection with the Transaction and, (ii) in any case, if shareholder approval of the Transaction is required and the Company’s shareholders are entitled to vote thereon, the Employee shall vote all of the Employee’s shares of Common Stock in favor of such Transaction. Any sale of shares of Common Stock by the Employee pursuant to this Section 3.5 shall be for the same consideration per share, on substantially the same terms and subject to substantially the same conditions as the sale of shares of capital stock owned by the NMP Entities; provided, that the consideration per share, terms and conditions shall be adjusted as necessary to the extent the Employee and the NMP Entities are selling different types of capital stock; and provided, further, that there shall be no adjustment in the consideration per share in the event that the NMP Entities are also selling shares of Series A Preferred Stock. If the Employee sells any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section 3.5, the Employee shall pay and be responsible for the Employee’s proportionate share of the Expenses of Sale and the Sale Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the S-1 Effective Date, this Section 3.5 shall apply only to the Employee if the Employee is a Covered Person and a Permitted Transferee of the Employee if the Employee is a Covered Person.

3.6 Option to Pay Cash. Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary in Section 3.3 or 3.5, in connection with a sale by the NMP Entities pursuant to Section 3.3 or 3.5 where the consideration in such sale consists of or includes securities, if the sale of such securities to the Employee would require either a registration statement under the Securities Act

of 1933, as amended, or preparation of a disclosure statement pursuant to Regulation D (or any successor regulation) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or a similar provision of any state securities law, and such registration statement or disclosure statement is not otherwise being prepared in connection with the sale, then, at the option of the NMP Entities, the Employee may receive, in lieu of such securities, the fair market value of such securities in cash, as determined in good faith by the Board, whose determination shall be final and binding.

Section 4. Prohibited Activities.

4.1 Prohibition Against Certain Activities. The Employee agrees that the Employee will not at any time (a) disclose or furnish to any other Person or use for the Employee’s own or any other Person’s account any Confidential or Proprietary Information (other than in the course of the Employee’s employment with the Company), except for Permitted Disclosures (a “Prohibited Disclosure”), (b) directly or indirectly solicit for employment, including without limitation, recommending to any subsequent employer the solicitation for employment of, any employee of the Company or any Affiliate thereof (provided, that this clause (b) shall expire on the second anniversary of the Termination Date) (a “Prohibited Solicitation”) and (c) commit a breach of the provisions of Section 3.1 (a “Prohibited Transfer”).

4.2 Right to Purchase Shares. The Employee understands and agrees that the Company has provided for the Employee to hold shares of Common Stock in the Company to reward the Employee for the Employee’s future efforts and loyalty to the Company and its Affiliates by giving the Employee the opportunity to participate in the potential future appreciation of the Company. Accordingly, if (a) the Employee engages in any Prohibited Disclosure or breaches or violates the Employee’s obligations relating to the non-disclosure or non-use of confidential or proprietary information under any Employee Agreement to which the Employee is a party, or (b) the Employee engages in any Prohibited Solicitation or breaches or violates any non-solicitation obligations under any Employee Agreement to which the Employee is a party, or (c) the Employee engages in any Prohibited Transfer, or (d) the Employee engages (at any time prior to the second anniversary of the Termination Date) in any Competitive Activity or breaches or violates any non-competition obligations under any Employee Agreement to which the Employee is a party, or (e) the Employee is convicted of a felony against the Company or any of its Affiliates, then, in addition to any other rights and remedies available to the Company, the Company shall be entitled, at its option, exercisable by written notice (the “Repurchase Notice”) to the Employee, to purchase all or any portion of the shares of Common Stock then held by the Employee. Notwithstanding the foregoing (but without limiting any other rights and remedies available to the Company), the Company shall not be entitled to purchase all or any portion of the shares of Common Stock of the Employee pursuant to this Section 4 with respect to a breach of:

(i) clause (a) of this Section 4.2 by reason of the Employee’s having disclosed Confidential or Proprietary Information, if the disclosure was not made in bad faith, such disclosure does not have a significant adverse impact on the Company and the Employee uses the Employee’s reasonable best efforts to minimize any adverse impact on the Company resulting from such disclosure;

(ii) clause (c) of this Section 4.2, if the Employee believed in good faith at the time of Transfer that the Transfer was permitted under Section 3.1 and the breach of Section 3.1 is cured promptly (and in any event within 30 days) after written notice thereof is provided to the Employee; or

(iii) clause (d) of this Section 4.2, if the Employee acted in good faith, was unaware, after due inquiry, that such activity constituted a Competitive Activity or a breach or violation of any non-competition obligations under any Non-Competition Agreement or Employee Agreement to which the Employee is a party, and ceases all activities that constitute a Competitive Activity or such breach or violation promptly (and in any event within 30 days) after the Employee becomes aware that such activity constitutes a Competitive Activity or such breach or violation.

4.3 Purchase Price; Closing. The purchase price per share of the shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to this Section 4 (the “Section 4.3 Called Shares”) shall be equal to the lesser of (i) ninety percent (90%) of the Employee’s Cost and (ii) the Fair Market Value of such share on the business day immediately preceding the date of repurchase (the lesser of (i) and (ii), the “Section 4.3 Call Price”). The closing of a purchase pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall take place at the principal office of the Company ten days following the date of the Repurchase Notice (and if such tenth day is not a business day, then the first business day thereafter), except that if the Company is prohibited from repurchasing any Section 4.3 Called Shares by any Prohibitions, the closing of such purchase shall take place on the first practicable date on which the Company is permitted to purchase such Section 4.3 Called Shares but no interest shall be paid to the Employee on the Section 4.3 Call Price during such period. If at any time the Prohibitions shall cease to be applicable to any portion of the Section 4.3 Called Shares not purchased, then the Company shall purchase such portion on the first practicable date on which the Company is permitted to do so. At such closing, the Employee shall sell, convey, transfer, assign and deliver to the Company all right, title and interest in and to the Section 4.3 Called Shares, which shall constitute (and, at the closing, the Employee shall represent, warrant and certify the same to the Company in writing) good and unencumbered title to such shares, free and clear of all liens, security interests, encumbrances and adverse claims of any kind and nature (other than those in favor of the Company and the NMP Entities pursuant to this Agreement), and shall deliver to the Company a certificate representing the shares duly endorsed for transfer, or accompanied by appropriate stock transfer powers duly executed, and with all necessary transfer tax stamps affixed thereto at the expense of the Employee, and the Company shall deliver to the Employee,

in full payment of the Section 4.3 Call Price payable for each Section 4.3 Called Share, a check payable to the order of the Employee, in an amount equal to the Section 4.3 Call Price multiplied by the aggregate number of Section 4.3 Called Shares. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, from and after the date of the Repurchase Notice, the Employee shall not have any rights with respect to any of the Section 4.3 Called Shares (including any rights pursuant to Section 3.3 or 3.4), except to receive the purchase price therefor.

4.4 Purchase in Connection with a Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Sections 3.3, 3.4 or 3.5, if at the time of a Transaction in which the Employee is participating, the Company is entitled to purchase the Employee’s shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section 4, and if the Section 4.3 Call Price would be less than the proceeds per share to the Employee from such Transaction, then the Employee shall be entitled to receive for each share of Common Stock only the Section 4.3 Call Price, with the balance of the proceeds of sale in the Transaction being remitted to the other shareholders of the Company participating in such Transaction pro rata in accordance with their respective participation in such Transaction.

Section 5. Termination

5.1 Termination of Restrictions and Rights. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, but subject to the restrictions of all applicable federal and state securities laws, including the restrictions in this Agreement relating thereto, from and after the Release Date (i) any and all shares of Common Stock owned by the Employee may be sold, transferred, assigned, exchanged, pledged, encumbered or otherwise disposed of (and the Employee may grant any option or right to purchase such shares or any legal or beneficial interest therein, or may continue to hold such shares), free of the restrictions contained in this Agreement and (ii) the Employee shall no longer be entitled to any of the rights contained in this Agreement, except those rights set forth in Section 3.4, which shall continue until the NMP Entities no longer hold any shares of capital stock. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from and after the Release Date, the provisions of Sections 3 (other than Section 3.4) and 4 shall terminate and have no further force or effect.

5.2 Distribution. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, but subject to the restrictions of all applicable federal and state securities laws, including the restrictions in this Agreement relating thereto, if the NMP Entities shall distribute all or any portion of the shares of Common Stock owned by the NMP Entities to their limited partners in a pro rata distribution (based upon the limited partners’ relative partnership interests) made to all of their limited partners (“Distribute” or a “Distribution”), then the Employee shall be released from all obligations and restrictions, and shall no longer be entitled to any of the rights, contained in this Agreement, including those arising under Sections 3 and 4, with respect to the percentage of the Employee’s shares of Common Stock as the NMP Entities have Distributed

determined on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock owned and the aggregate number of such shares of Common Stock being Distributed by the NMP Entities (assuming conversion, exchange or exercise of all Convertible Securities held by the NMP Entities)) (the “Released Shares”). The NMP Entities shall notify the Employee in writing of any Distribution no later than 30 days after any such Distribution.

Section 6. Miscellaneous.

6.1 Distributions. In the event of any dividend, distribution or exchange paid or made in respect of the Common Stock consisting of Affiliate Securities, (a) the restrictions and rights with respect to the Common Stock that are contained in this Agreement shall be applicable to the Affiliate Securities without further action of the parties (with the references to Common Stock being deemed references to the Affiliate Securities and the references to the Company being deemed references to the Affiliate), and (b) as a condition precedent to the receipt of the Affiliate Securities by the Employee, the Employee shall enter into a shareholders’ agreement containing terms substantially equivalent to those contained herein with respect to the Affiliate Securities (but reflecting the economics of the dividend, distribution or exchange and the capitalization of the Affiliate). The Board, in good faith, shall determine such terms and its determination shall be final and binding on the Employee.

6.2 Further Assurances. Each party hereto shall cooperate with each other party, shall do and perform or cause to be done and performed all further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all other agreements, certificates, instruments, and documents as any other party hereto reasonably may request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

6.5 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law but the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, including that provision or portion of any provision, in any other jurisdiction.

The Employee hereby ratifies and confirms all that the Representative shall do or cause to be done by virtue of its appointment as the Employee’s agent and attorney-in-fact. In acting for the Employee pursuant to the appointment set forth in this Section 6.14(b), the Representative shall not be responsible to

the Employee for any loss or damage the Employee may suffer by reason of the performance by the Representative of its duties under this Agreement, except for loss or damage arising from willful violation of law or gross negligence by the Representative in the performance of its duties hereunder. The appointment of the Representative shall be deemed coupled with an interest and as such shall be irrevocable and shall survive the death, incompetency, mental illness or insanity of the Employee, and any person dealing with the Representative may conclusively and absolutely rely, without inquiry, upon any act of the Representative as the act of the Employee in all matters referred to in this Section 6.14(b).

6.15 General Interpretive Principles. Whenever used in this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires, any noun or pronoun shall be deemed to include the plural as well as the singular and to cover all genders. The headings of the sections, paragraphs, subparagraphs, clauses and subclauses of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions hereof. Unless otherwise specified, the terms “hereof,” “herein” and similar terms refer to this Agreement as a whole (including the exhibits, schedules and disclosure statements hereto), and references herein to Sections refer to Sections of this Agreement.

The Employee agrees that, if the Employee shall be required by legal process or by law to divulge any Confidential or Proprietary Information, the Employee shall provide the Company with prompt written notice of each request so that the Company may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy, and the Employee shall cooperate with the Company to obtain a protective order or other remedy; and, in the event that a protective order or other remedy is not obtained, the Employee shall furnish only that portion of such information which, in the opinion of its counsel, the Employee is legally compelled to disclose and shall exercise its best efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded any such information so disclosed.
