VOTING TRUST AGREEMENT
AGREEMENT made as of the 13th day of October, 1997, by and among State
Street Bank and Trust Company (hereinafter sometimes referred to, along with its
successor in trust, as the "Trustee"); International Integration Incorporated, a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxx ("Xxxxxxxxxxx"),
Xxxxxxxxxxx Limited Partnership, a Massachusetts limited partnership formed
under an agreement of limited partnership dated July 19, 1995 (the
"Partnership") and Xxxxxxxxxx Trust Limited, as Trustee of the Geneva Trust,
formed under an instrument of trust dated November 21, 1996 and amended by a
Deed of Exclusion dated September 5, 1997 (the "Geneva Trust") (Subramaniam, the
Partnership and the Geneva Trust are hereinafter sometimes referred to
individually, as a "Stockholder," and collectively, as the "Stockholders").
WHEREAS, the Company desires to establish an arrangement whereby the
Stockholders grant the voting power with respect to all shares of Common Stock,
$.01 par value per share, of the Company currently or hereafter owned by the
Stockholders (the "Shares") to the Trustee in all matters on the terms and
conditions set forth herein, and the parties hereto believe that the best
interests of the Company will be protected and promoted thereby;
WHEREAS, the Partnership has on or before the date hereof transferred to
the Geneva Trust 1,800,000 Shares; and
2
WHEREAS, the Trustee has consented to act under this Agreement for the
purposes hereinafter provided.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained
and for other good, valuable and sufficient consideration, the receipt and
adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged by all parties hereto, the parties
hereto promise, covenant, undertake and agree as follows:
1. TRANSFER OF STOCK TO TRUSTEE. Each of the Stockholders has deposited
with the Trustee certificates representing all Shares currently held by such
Stockholder. Each of the Stockholders hereby agrees to deposit with the Trustee
certificates representing Shares hereafter held by such Stockholder, or shall
direct the Company to issue such Shares directly to the Trustee. Each
Stockholder hereby represents that the Shares deposited by him or it hereunder
represent all shares of capital stock of the Company of which such Stockholder
is the record or beneficial owner and that such Stockholder is the sole record,
legal and beneficial owner of all Shares deposited by him or it hereunder. Each
Stockholder hereby agrees and covenants that during the term of this Agreement,
he or it shall remain the sole beneficial owner within the meaning of Rule 13d-3
promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act"), of all Shares deposited or to be deposited by him or it hereunder and all
voting trust certificates issued hereunder. Subramaniam hereby represents that
(i) Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxx, sister of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxx,
and their respective children and remote issue are the sole beneficiaries of the
Geneva Trust and that no other party
-2-
3
has or will have during the term of this Agreement any right, title or interest
in any assets of the Geneva Trust including, without limitation, the Shares
deposited or to be deposited by the Geneva Trust hereunder and (ii) after giving
effect to the transfer to the Geneva Trust referred to above, the Partnership
has no record or beneficial interest in any securities of the Company. All such
stock certificates, unless issued by the Company directly to the Trustee as set
forth above, shall be so endorsed, or accompanied by such instruments of
transfer as to enable the Trustee to cause such certificates to be transferred
into the name of the Trustee and to enable the Trustee to become the record
owner of the Shares represented thereby in accordance with the terms and
provisions hereof, which the Trustee shall forthwith cause to be done as
hereinafter provided. Upon receipt by the Trustee of the certificates for any
such shares of the stock of the Company and, if necessary, the transfer of the
same into the name of the Trustee, the Trustee shall hold the same subject to
the terms of this Agreement and shall thereupon issue and deliver to each
Stockholder depositing stock hereunder, or for whose benefit such stock was
deposited, voting trust certificates representing such Stockholders' respective
interests in the Company's capital stock deposited pursuant to this Agreement.
In the event that a Stockholder becomes the holder of additional Shares of
capital stock of the Company after the date hereof, he or it shall, within five
business days of becoming the holder of such additional Shares, deposit with the
Trustee certificates representing such additional Shares or shall direct the
Company to issue such Shares directly to the Trustee which Shares shall
thereupon be subject to the terms of this Agreement.

2. AGREEMENT. Copies of this Agreement and of every agreement supplemental
hereto or amendatory hereof shall be provided to each person depositing stock
with the Trustee under this Agreement and to the Company, and shall be filed in
the registered office of the Company in the State of Delaware, and shall be open
to inspection by any beneficiary of the trust under this voting trust, daily
during business hours. All voting trust certificates shall be issued, received
and held subject to all of the terms of this Agreement. All persons, firms,
corporations, trusts, or organizations for whose benefit stock is deposited
hereunder who accept a voting trust certificate issued hereunder, shall be bound
by the provisions of this Agreement with the same effect as if they had executed
this Agreement.
All certificates for the Company's capital stock transferred and delivered
to the Trustee pursuant hereto (unless issued directly to the Trustee as set
forth in Section 1 above) shall be surrendered by the Trustee to the Company and
cancelled and new certificates therefor shall be issued to and held by the
Trustee in their own names "As Voting Trustee".
3. VOTING TRUST CERTIFICATES. Each voting trust certificate to be issued
and delivered by the Trustee in respect of the capital stock of the Company, as
hereinbefore provided, shall state the number of shares which it represents,
shall be signed by the Trustee and shall be in substantially the same form as
EXHIBIT I hereto.
4. TRANSFER OF CERTIFICATES. Transfer of any voting trust certificate
shall be subject to any restrictions, provisions and conditions applicable to
the stock which it represents, whether imposed by law, specified on such stock
certificates or specified
-4-
5
in this Agreement or in any other agreement including, without limitation, the
Founding Stockholders' Agreement dated as of May 6, 1997 (as amended, the
"Founding Stockholders' Agreement") between the Company and each Shareholder, as
defined therein, which Agreement each party hereto represents is a valid and
binding obligation of such party, enforceable against such party in accordance
with its terms. The Company hereby confirms its consent pursuant to the terms of
the Founding Stockholders' Agreement to the transfer on or before the date of
execution of this Agreement of up to 1,800,000 Shares by Subramaniam to the
Partnership and the subsequent transfer by the Partnership to the Geneva Trust
of all Shares transferred by Subramaniam to the Partnership, which Shares are
subject to the Founding Stockholders' Agreement and this Agreement. Subject to
the foregoing, the voting trust certificates shall be freely transferable on the
books of the Trustee, at such office as the Trustee may designate, by the
registered owner thereof, either in person or by attorney duly authorized, upon
surrender thereof, according to the rules established for that purpose by the
Trustee, and the Trustee may treat the registered holder as owner thereof for
all purposes whatsoever, but the Trustee shall not be required to deliver new
voting trust certificates hereunder without the surrender of such existing
voting trust certificates.
If a voting trust certificate is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the
Trustee, in its discretion, may issue a duplicate of such certificate upon
receipt of: (a) evidence of such fact satisfactory to it; (b) indemnity
satisfactory to it; (c) the existing certificate, if mutilated; and (d) the
Trustee's reasonable fees and expenses in
-5-
6
connection with the issuance of a new trust certificate. The Trustee shall not
be required to recognize any transfer of a voting trust certificate not made in
accordance with the provisions hereof, unless the person claiming such ownership
shall have produced indicia of title satisfactory to the Trustee and shall, in
addition, deposit with the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to them.
After termination of the Founding Stockholders' Agreement and this
Agreement in accordance with their respective terms, upon written request from a
Stockholder to transfer Shares, if the Company's securities are then publicly
traded and Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act"), is then available to the Company, the Company will
accept the legal opinion of counsel to such Stockholder if such counsel is
experienced in securities law matters, that such transfer complies with the
applicable provisions of Rule 144.
5. TERMINATION PROCEDURE. Upon the termination of the voting trust at any
time, as hereinafter provided, the Trustee shall mail within five business days
of such termination written notice of such termination to the registered owners
of the voting trust certificates, at the addresses appearing on the transfer
books of the Trustee. From the date specified in any such notice (which date
shall be fixed by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement) the voting trust certificates shall cease to have any effect, and the
holders of such voting trust certificates shall have no further rights under
this voting trust other than to receive certificates for shares of stock of the
Company or other property distributable under the terms hereof upon the
surrender of such voting trust certificates.
-6-
7
Within ten business days after surrender for cancellation of voting trust
certificates by a registered holder, properly endorsed or accompanied by
properly endorsed instruments of transfer, if appropriate, at the place
designated by the Trustee, the Trustee shall deliver to such registered holder
of such voting trust certificates, stock certificates for the number of shares
of such class or classes of the Company's capital stock represented thereby as
to which such registered holder shall be entitled.
6. DIVIDENDS. If any dividend or distribution in respect of the stock
deposited with the Trustee is paid, in whole or in part, in securities of the
Company having voting powers of any nature, the Trustee shall likewise hold,
subject to the terms of this Agreement, the securities which are received by it
on account of such dividend or distribution, and the holder of each voting trust
certificate representing stock on which such dividend or distribution has been
paid shall be entitled to receive a voting trust certificate issued under this
Agreement representing such securities. Holders entitled to receive the
dividends or distributions referred to above shall be those registered as such
on the transfer books of the Trustee at the close of business on the day fixed
by the Company or by law for the taking of a record to determine those holders
of the Company's stock entitled to receive such dividends or distributions.
If any dividend or distribution in respect of the stock deposited with the
Trustee is paid other than in securities of the Company having voting powers of
any nature, then the Trustee shall promptly distribute the same among the
holders of
-7-
8
voting trust certificates registered as such at the close of business on the day
fixed by the Company or by law for the taking of a record to determine the
holders of stock entitled to receive such dividend or distribution. Such
distribution shall be made to such holders of voting trust certificates ratably,
in accordance with the number of shares represented by their respective voting
trust certificates.
In lieu of receiving cash dividends or distributions upon the capital
stock of the Company and paying the same to the holders of voting trust
certificates pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee may
instruct the Company in writing to pay such dividends or distributions directly
to the holders of the voting trust certificates specified by the Trustee. Upon
receipt of such written instructions, the Company shall pay such dividends or
distributions directly to the holders of the voting trust certificates. The
Trustee may at any time before such payment revoke such instructions and by
written notice to the Company direct it to make dividend or distribution
payments to the Trustee. The Company shall not be liable to any holder of a
voting trust certificate or any person claiming to be entitled to any such
dividends or distributions by reason of adhering to any written instructions by
the Trustee.
7. SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS. If any stock or other securities of the Company
are offered for subscription to all the holders of the Company's capital stock
deposited hereunder, the Trustee promptly, upon receipt of notice of such offer,
shall mail a copy thereof to each of the registered holders of the voting trust
certificates. Upon receipt by the Trustee, at least three days prior to the last
day fixed by the Company
-8-
9
for subscription and payment (but in no event affording the registered holder of
the voting trust certificate less than 10 days to consider such subscription
offer), of a request from any such registered holder of voting trust
certificates to subscribe in his behalf (accompanied when due in accordance with
the terms of the subscription offer by the sum of money required to pay for such
stock or securities), the Trustee shall make such subscription and payment, and
upon receipt from the Company of the certificates for shares or securities so
subscribed for, shall issue to such holder a voting trust certificate in respect
thereof if the same be stock having voting powers of any nature, but if the same
be securities other than stock having voting powers of any nature, the Trustee
shall mail or deliver such securities to the certificate holder in whose behalf
the subscription was made, or may instruct the Company to make delivery directly
to the certificate holder entitled thereto.
8. DISSOLUTION OF THE COMPANY. In the event of the dissolution or total or
partial liquidation of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the
Trustee shall receive the moneys, securities, rights, or property to which the
holders of the Company's capital stock deposited hereunder are entitled, and
shall distribute the same among the registered holders of voting trust
certificates in proportion to their interests, as shown by the transfer books of
the Trustee, or the Trustee may in its discretion deposit such moneys,
securities, rights, or property with any bank or trust company, licensed and
doing business in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, with authority and
instructions to distribute the same as above provided, and upon such
-9-
10
deposit, all further obligations or liabilities of the Trustee in respect of
such moneys, securities, rights, or property so deposited shall cease.
