EXHIBIT 1
STATEMENT OF WORK
1. INTRODUCTION
Nanosys, Inc. ("Nanosys" or "Developer") possesses nanowire technology which may
result in improved device characteristics when applied to [*** Redacted]
electronics; these characteristics include reduced size and lower weight
compared to existing devices. In addition, present high temperature processing
steps used in device manufacturing may be eliminated when using nanowires,
enabling the use of lower melting point substrates such as [*** Redacted]. This
in turn simplifies device packaging, potentially eliminating components and
subsequently lowering cost. All of these improved device characteristics would
be desirable to In-Q-Tel and the CIA.
Nanosys has already produced and brought to operation digital inverters using
nanowire technology. However, these inverters have been [*** Redacted] devices,
and the technology has not yet been extended to [*** Redacted] applications such
as [*** Redacted] that utilize [*** Redacted]. [*** Redacted] applications
introduce new complexities for materials and interfaces, where [*** Redacted]
must be tailored to accomplish acceptable time [*** Redacted] for proper device
operation. The bulk of the work described in this document is expected to result
in the extension of nanowire [*** Redacted] logic gate technology to [***
Redacted] applications.
Specifically, nanowire technology will be utilized to develop a ring or other
oscillator, which when combined with an appropriate antenna forms the core of a
transmitter circuit. In its most basic form, a ring oscillator is created from
the serial connection of an odd number of inverters; the output of the last
inverter in the series is connected to the input of the first inverter.
Appropriately designed, this configuration results in a voltage oscillation that
can be tailored to a desired frequency. Alternatively, an oscillator can use
reactive components to determine frequency. Connected to an antenna, a simple rf
transmitter results.
There are several engineering phases inherent to the development of a device
product. Generally speaking the process begins with a Feasibility Phase, which
is designed to determine if the concepts upon which the device is based are
possible. The next step is the Breadboard Phase, which is a laboratory based
system that is aimed at showing feasibility of all of the key technical unknowns
for a particular product, but with no regard to form factor. The third stage
results in the development of a prototype, which ideally reflects the
configuration of the desired final product. Under this Statement of Work,
Nanosys will complete the Feasibility Phase and Breadboard Phase for a nanowire
component to an rf transmitter: an oscillator with an operational frequency that
falls between 200 and 800MHz, inclusive. The Feasibility Phase will be targeted
to culminate in the demonstration of a baseline device that will serve as a
fiducial upon which Breadboard Phase performance optimization can be compared.
2. DELIVERABLES AND SERVICES
This project is divided into two phases: a six-month Feasibility Phase followed
by a twelve-month Breadboard Phase. The Feasibility Phase must be satisfactorily
completed and a Notice to Proceed obtained from In-Q-Tel before proceeding to
the Breadboard Phase.
Nanosys covenants and agrees that over the entire course of the program (both
Feasibility and Breadboard Phases), it will spend at least $3 Million on the
research and development of nanowire [*** Redacted] outside of this program, but
which technology may be applied to this program.

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT
AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933. SUCH SECURITIES
MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION UNLESS THE
TRANSFER IS IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 144 OR SIMILAR RULE OR UNLESS THE COMPANY
RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO IT STATING THAT SUCH
SALE OR TRANSFER IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY
REQUIREMENTS OF SAID ACT.
THIS WARRANT AND THE SHARES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF ARE SUBJECT TO A
VOTING AGREEMENT BY AND AMONG THE COMPANY AND CERTAIN STOCKHOLDERS OF THE
COMPANY (A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE COMPANY), AND BY ACCEPTING ANY
INTEREST IN THIS WARRANT OR SUCH SHARES THE PERSON ACCEPTING ANY SUCH INTEREST
SHALL BE DEEMED TO AGREE TO AND SHALL BECOME BOUND BY ALL THE PROVISIONS OF SAID
VOTING AGREEMENT.
STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
To Purchase Shares of Series C Preferred Stock of
Nanosys, Inc.
THIS CERTIFIES that, for value received, In-Q-Tel, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Investor"), is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the Payment Date, as
defined below, and on or prior to September 4, 2008 (the "Termination Date"),
but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase, from Nanosys, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), up to a total of 542,314 shares of Series
C Preferred Stock (the "Shares"), with the exact number of shares for which this
Warrant is exercisable determined as set forth below, at an exercise price (the
"Exercise Price") of $0.001 per Share.
1. Title to Warrant. Prior to the expiration hereof and subject to
compliance with applicable laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are
transferable, in whole or in part, in accordance with the terms of this Warrant
upon delivery of this Warrant by the holder hereof together with the Assignment
Form annexed hereto as Attachment C properly endorsed to the office or agency of
the Company, referred to in Sections 2 and 3 hereof.
2. Exercise of Warrant.
(a) This Warrant shall be exercisable after the date of actual
receipt by the Company of an aggregate of $2,000,000 of payments from In-Q-Tel,
Inc. (the "Payment Date") pursuant to the Development Agreement, dated as of
even date hereof by and among the Company and the In-Q-Tel, Inc. (the "DA"), for
the number of Shares determined as follows (the number of Shares as to which
this warrant is exercisable pursuant to the terms of this Section 2 hereinafter
referred to as "Vested Shares"):
(i) This Warrant shall be exercisable after the
Payment Date for the number of Shares equal to (i) 542,314 multiplied by (ii) a
fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the
amount, up to $3,000,000, actually paid to the Company (or its assigns) from
time to time pursuant to the DA minus (x) the total dollar amount of all
equipment or other assets (based on the acquisition price to the Company) as to
which title is transferred by the Company to In-Q-Tel, Inc. pursuant to Section
13 of the DA and (y) all cash or cash equivalents transferred by the Company to
In-Q-Tel, Inc. pursuant to a request by In-Q-Tel, Inc. or pursuant to any other
action through which In-Q-Tel, Inc. seeks refund or payment of such funds, and
(B) the denominator of which is $3,000,000.
(b) The right to purchase Vested Shares represented by this
Warrant is exercisable by the registered holder hereof, as to all of the Vested
Shares as of the date of such exercise, at any time before the close of business
on the Termination Date by the delivery of this Warrant and the Notice of
Exercise form annexed hereto as Attachment B duly executed to the office of the
Company in Palo Alto, California (or such other office or agency of the Company
as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered holder hereof at the
address of such holder appearing on the books of the Company), and upon payment
of the Exercise Price for the Vested Shares thereby purchased (by cash or by
check or bank draft payable to the order of the Company or by cancellation of
indebtedness of the Company to the holder hereof, if any, at the time of
exercise in an amount equal to the purchase price of the Shares thereby
purchased); whereupon the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive a
certificate for the number of shares of Preferred Stock so purchased. The
Company agrees that if at the time of the surrender of this Warrant and purchase
the holder hereof shall be entitled to exercise this Warrant, the shares so
purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to such holder as the record owner
of such shares at the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall
have been exercised as aforesaid. If this Warrant is exercised, or converted
pursuant to Section 3 below, for a number of Vested Shares that are less than
the total number of Shares, promptly after surrender of the Warrant upon such
exercise or conversion, the Company will execute and deliver a new warrant
evidencing the right of the Holder to the balance of the Shares purchasable
hereunder upon the same terms and conditions set forth herein, provided that the
issuance of such new warrant shall not accelerate, or be deemed or construed to
accelerate, the vesting of any Shares as set forth in Section 2(a) above, and
the terms of such new warrant shall be modified to the extent necessary to
prevent the acceleration of vesting of any Shares under the terms of this
Warrant.
3. Right to Convert Warrant. The registered holder hereof shall have
the right to convert this Warrant, by the delivery of this Warrant and the
Notice of Conversion form annexed hereto as Attachment B duly executed to the
office of the Company in Palo Alto, California (or such other office or agency
of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered holder
hereof at the address of such holder appearing on the books of the Company), as
to all Shares that are Vested Shares at the time of such conversion, at any time
before the close of business on the Termination Date, into the shares of Series
C Preferred Stock as provided for in this Section 3. Upon exercise of this
conversion right, the holder hereof shall be entitled to receive that number of
Vested Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A - B)(X)] by (A),
where:
(A) = the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of one (1)
Share on the date of conversion of this Warrant.
-2-
(B) = the Exercise Price for one (1) Share under this
Warrant.
(X) = the number of Vested Shares issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant.
"Fair Market Value" of a Share shall mean:
(a) if the conversion right is being exercised upon the
occurrence of the Company's initial public offering, the initial public offering
price per share (before deducting underwriting commissions and discounts and
offering expenses) multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of one (1) Share issuable upon exercise of this Warrant; and
(b) in all other cases, the fair value as determined in good
faith by the Company's Board of Directors.
Upon conversion of this Warrant, the registered holder hereof shall be
entitled to receive a certificate for the number of Vested Shares determined as
aforesaid.
4. Issuance of Stock; No Fractional Shares or Scrip. Certificates for
the stock purchased hereunder or issuable upon conversion hereof shall be
delivered to the holder hereof promptly after the date on which this Warrant
shall have been exercised or converted as aforesaid. The Company covenants that
all Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of rights represented by this
Warrant will, upon exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, be fully
paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges in respect of
the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring
contemporaneously with such issue). The Company agrees that, if at the time of
the surrender of this Warrant and exercise of the rights represented hereby, the
holder hereof shall be entitled to exercise such rights, the Shares so issued
shall be and be deemed to be issued to such holder as the record owner of such
Shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have
been exercised or converted as aforesaid. No fractional shares or scrip
representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise or conversion
of this Warrant, and any fractional share amounts shall be rounded down to the
nearest whole share issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
5. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for the Shares
upon the exercise or conversion of this Warrant shall be made without charge to
the holder hereof for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in
respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses
shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name
of the holder of this Warrant or in such name or names as may be directed by the
holder of this Warrant; provided, however, that in the event certificates for
Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the holder of this
Warrant, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise or conversion shall be
accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the holder
hereof; and provided further, that upon any transfer involved in the issuance or
delivery of any certificates for the Shares, the Company may require, as a
condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any
transfer tax incidental thereto.
-3-
6. No Rights as Shareholders. This Warrant does not entitle the holder
hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company
prior to the exercise or conversion hereof.
7. Exchange and Registry of Warrant. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon
the surrender hereof by the registered holder at the above-mentioned office or
agency of the Company, for a new Warrant of like tenor and dated as of such
exchange.
The Company shall maintain at the above-mentioned office or agency a
registry showing the name and address of the registered holder of this Warrant.
This Warrant may be surrendered for exchange, transfer or exercise, in
accordance with its terms, at such office or agency of the Company, and the
Company shall be entitled to rely in all respects, prior to written notice to
the contrary, upon such registry.
8. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. Upon receipt by
the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and in case of loss, theft or
destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and upon
reimbursement to the Company of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and
upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company will
make and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation,
in lieu of this Warrant.
9. Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for
the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted
herein shall be a Saturday or a Sunday or shall be a legal holiday, then such
action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day
not a legal holiday.
10. Acquisition, Initial Public Offering and Dilution.
(a) Merger, Sale of Assets, etc.
(i) "Acquisition." For the purpose of this
Warrant, "Acquisition" means any sale, license, or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company (including a sale of all or
substantially all of the intellectual property of the Company), or any
reorganization, consolidation, acquisition or merger of the Company where the
holders of the Company's securities before the transaction own less than 50% of
the outstanding voting securities of the surviving entity after the transaction.
(ii) If at any time after the date hereof the
Company proposes to consummate an Acquisition in which the shareholders of the
Company shall receive cash or publicly traded securities in exchange for their
shares of stock in the Company pursuant to such transaction, then the Company
shall give the holder of this Warrant written notice (the "Merger Notice") of
such impending transaction not later than fifteen (15) days prior to the
shareholders' meeting called to approve such transaction, or fifteen (15) days
prior to the closing of such transaction, whichever is earlier, and shall also
notify the holder of this Warrant of the final approval of such transaction. The
first of such notices shall describe the material terms and conditions of the
impending transaction, and the Company shall thereafter give the holder of this
Warrant prompt notice of any material
-4-
changes. If this Warrant has not been exercised or converted by the closing of
such transaction then this Warrant shall terminate and shall no longer be
exercisable pursuant to the terms of Sections 2 or 3 hereof.
(iii) If this Warrant is not terminated in an
Acquisition pursuant to the provisions of Section 10(a)(ii), (a "Non-Terminating
Acquisition") then, as a condition of such Non-Terminating Acquisition, lawful
and adequate provisions shall be made by the Company whereby the Investor shall
thereafter have the right to purchase and receive (in lieu of the shares of the
Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as applicable, of the Company immediately
theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights
represented by this Warrant) such shares of stock, securities or other assets or
property as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number
of outstanding shares of such Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as applicable,
equal to the number of shares of such stock immediately theretofore purchasable
and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant. In
the event of any Non-Terminating Acquisition, appropriate provision shall be
made by the Company with respect to the rights and interests of the Investor
that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for
adjustments of the Exercise Price and of the number of shares purchasable and
receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall thereafter be applicable, in
relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable
upon the exercise hereof.
(b) Initial Public Offering. If at any time after the date
hereof the Company proposes to consummate the initial public offering ("IPO") of
its Common Stock in a bona fide firm commitment underwriting pursuant to a
registration statement on Form S-1 (or successor form) under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, (the "Securities Act"), then the Company shall give the
Investor written notice of such impending transaction not later than thirty (30)
days prior to the closing of the IPO. Such notice shall describe the material
terms and conditions of the IPO, and the Company shall thereafter give the
holder of this Warrant prompt notice of any material changes. If this Warrant
has not been exercised or converted by the closing of the IPO it shall terminate
and shall no longer be exercisable or convertible pursuant to the terms of
Section 2 or 3 hereof.
(c) Reclassification, etc. If the Company at any time shall,
by subdivision, combination or reclassification of securities or otherwise,
change any of the securities to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist
into the same or a different number of securities of any class or classes, this
Warrant shall thereafter be to acquire such number and kind of securities as
would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the
securities which were subject to the purchase rights under this Warrant
immediately prior to such subdivision, combination, reclassification or other
change. If the Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant are subdivided
or combined into a greater or smaller number of the Shares, the purchase price
under this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced in case of subdivision of
shares or proportionately increased in the case of combination of shares, in
both cases by the ratio which the total number of Shares to be outstanding
immediately after such event bears to the total number of Shares outstanding
immediately prior to such event.
-5-
(d) Cash Distributions. No adjustment on account of dividends
on the Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant will be made to the
purchase price under this Warrant.
(e) Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that, during the
period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and
unissued Preferred Stock and Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to
provide for the issuance of the Shares upon the exercise or conversion of this
Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall
constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of
executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for
the Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant.
(f) Conversion Price Adjustments. The rate at which the Shares
are convertible into shares of Common Stock of the Company is subject to
adjustment as set forth in the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as
amended from time to time. Any adjustment to the conversion rate of the Shares
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant effected prior to any exercise or
conversion of this Warrant shall apply to any Shares thereafter issued pursuant
to the terms hereof.
(g) Option to Accelerate Vesting of Shares. Prior to the
termination of this Warrant pursuant to the provisions of Section 10(a) or 10(b)
hereunder, In-Q-Tel, Inc. shall have the right to pay to the Company any amounts
that remain unpaid to the Company under the DA and thereby accelerate the
vesting of the Shares in accordance with the formula set forth in Section 2(a)
above, provided that, no acceleration of vesting of the Shares under this
warrant shall be effective unless the payments by In-Q-Tel, Inc. to the Company
are irrevocable under the terms of the DA and not subject to refund to In-Q-Tel,
Inc.
11. Restrictions on Transferability of Securities.
(a) Restrictions on Transferability. This Warrant, the Shares
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, and the shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of the Shares (collectively the "Securities") shall not be sold,
assigned, transferred or pledged except upon the conditions specified in this
Section 11, which conditions are intended to ensure compliance with the
provisions of the Securities Act. Each holder of any of the Securities will
cause any proposed purchaser, assignee, transferee, or pledgee of the Securities
held by such holder to agree in writing to take and hold such Securities subject
to the provisions and upon the conditions specified in this Warrant as if such
purchaser, assignee, transferee or pledgee were the Investor hereunder.
(b) Restrictive Legend. Each certificate representing the
Securities and any other securities issued in respect of the Securities upon any
stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or similar
event, shall (unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of Section 11(c)
below) be stamped or otherwise imprinted with legends in the following form (in
addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws):
(i) 33 Act Legend.
-6-
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR
INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
1933. SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF
SUCH REGISTRATION UNLESS THE TRANSFER IS IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 144 OR
SIMILAR RULE OR UNLESS THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL
REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO IT STATING THAT SUCH SALE OR TRANSFER IS
EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF
SAID ACT.
(ii) Lock-Up Legend.
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE SOLD OR
OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED FOR A PERIOD NOT TO EXCEED 180 DAYS FOLLOWING THE
EFFECTIVE DATE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILED BY THE COMPANY FOR ITS
INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING.
The Investor and each holder of Securities and each subsequent
transferee, assignee, transferee or pledgee (hereinafter collectively, including
the Investor, referred to as a "Holder") consents to the Company making a
notation on its records and giving instructions to any transfer agent of the
Securities in order to implement the restrictions on transfer established in
Sections 11 and 15.
(c) Notice of Proposed Transfers. Each Holder of a certificate
representing the Securities, by acceptance thereof, agrees to comply in all
respects with the provisions of Sections 11 and 15. Prior to any proposed sale,
assignment, transfer or pledge of any Securities (other than (i) a transfer not
involving a change in beneficial ownership, (ii) in transactions involving the
distribution without consideration of Securities by a Holder to any of its
partners, or retired partners, or to the estate of any of its partners or
retired partners, (iii) a transfer to an affiliated fund, partnership or
company, which is not a competitor of the Company, subject to compliance with
applicable securities laws or (iv) transfers in compliance with Rule 144, so
long as the Company is furnished with satisfactory evidence of compliance with
such Rule), unless there is in effect a registration statement under the
Securities Act covering the proposed transfer, the Holder thereof shall give
prior written notice to the Company of such Holder's intention to effect such
transfer, sale, assignment or pledge. Each such notice shall describe the manner
and circumstances of the proposed transfer, sale, assignment or pledge in
sufficient detail, and shall be accompanied, at such Holder's expense, by either
(i) an opinion of counsel (who shall, and whose opinion shall be, addressed to
the Company and reasonably satisfactory to the Company) to the effect that the
proposed transfer of the Securities may be effected without registration under
the Securities Act or (ii) a "no action" letter from the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") to the effect that the transfer of such securities
without registration will not result in a recommendation by the staff of the
Commission that action be taken with respect thereto, whereupon the Holder of
such Securities shall be entitled to transfer such Securities in accordance with
the terms of the notice delivered by such Holder to the Company. Each
certificate evidencing the Securities transferred as above provided shall bear
(except if such transfer is made pursuant to Rule 144, in which case the legend
set forth in Section
-7-
11(b)(i) shall not be required) the restrictive legends set forth in Section
11(b) above, except that each such certificate shall not bear the legend set
forth in Section 11(b)(i) if in the opinion of counsel for such Holder and in
the opinion of counsel for the Company such legend is not required in order to
establish compliance with any provision of the Securities Act.
(d) Removal of Restrictions on Transfer of Securities. The
legend referred to in Section 11(b)(i) hereof stamped on a certificate
evidencing the Securities and the stock transfer instructions and record
notations with respect to the Securities shall be removed, and the Company shall
issue a certificate without such legend to the Holder of the Securities, if the
Securities are registered under the Securities Act, or if such Holder provides
the Company with an opinion of counsel (which may be counsel for the Company)
reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that a public sale or
transfer of such security may be made without registration under the Securities
Act or such Holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances, which may,
at the option of the Company, include an opinion of counsel (which may be
counsel for the Company) reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such
security can be sold pursuant to paragraph (k) of Rule 144 (or any successor
provision) under the Securities Act. After the expiration of the Lock-Up Period
(as defined in Section 15 below), and upon request of the Holder, the legend
referred to in Section 11(b)(ii) hereof stamped on a certificate evidencing the
Securities and the stock transfer instructions and record notations with respect
to the Securities shall be removed, and the Company shall issue a certificate
without such legend to the Holder of the Securities.
12. Investment Representations of the Investor. With respect to the
acquisition of any of the Securities, the Investor hereby represents and
warrants to the Company as follows:
(a) Experience. The Investor has substantial experience in
evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of securities in
companies similar to the Company so that it is capable of evaluating the merits
and risks of its investment in the Company and has the capacity to protect its
own interests. The Investor is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of
Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
(b) Investment. The Investor is acquiring the Securities for
investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with the view
to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof. The Investor
understands that the Securities have not been, and will not be, registered under
the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption from the registration
provisions of the Securities Act, the availability of which depends upon, among

third party may assert any valid claim against the Company or any Designated
Person (as defined below) with respect to (A) the continued employment by or
association with the Company of any of the present officers or employees of, or
consultants to, the Company (collectively, the "Designated Persons"), or (B) the
use or disclosure by the Company or any Designated Person of any information
which the Company or any Designated Person would be prohibited from using or
disclosing under any prior agreements
-10-

Designated Person made prior to his or her employment or engagement by the
Company.

the Company or the managing underwriter of a public offering of any securities
of the Company, such Holder shall not sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant
any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of
the Securities without the prior written consent of the Company or the managing

hundred eighty (180) days from the date upon which the registration statement
relating to such public offering is declared or ordered effective by the

STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
To Purchase Shares of Series C Preferred Stock of
Nanosys, Inc.
THIS CERTIFIES that, for value received, In-Q-Tel Employee Fund (the
"Investor"), is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the conditions
hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the Payment Date, as defined
below, and on or prior to September 4, 2008 (the "Termination Date"), but not
thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase, from Nanosys, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), up to a total of 180,771 shares of Series C
Preferred Stock (the "Shares"), with the exact number of shares for which this
Warrant is exercisable determined as set forth below, at an exercise price (the
"Exercise Price") of $0.001 per Share.
1. Title to Warrant. Prior to the expiration hereof and subject to
compliance with applicable laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder
are transferable, in whole or in part, in accordance with the terms of
this Warrant upon delivery of this Warrant by the holder hereof
together with the Assignment Form annexed hereto as Attachment C
properly endorsed to the office or agency of the Company, referred to
in Sections 2 and 3 hereof.
2. Exercise of Warrant.
(a) This Warrant shall be exercisable after the date of actual receipt by the
Company of an aggregate of [*** Redacted] of payments from In-Q-Tel, Inc. (the
"Payment Date") pursuant to the Development Agreement, dated as of even date
hereof by and among the Company and the In-Q-Tel, Inc. (the "DA"), for the
number of Shares determined as follows (the number of Shares as to which this
warrant is exercisable pursuant to the terms of this Section 2 hereinafter
referred to as "Vested Shares"):
(i) This Warrant shall be exercisable after the
Payment Date for the number of Shares equal to (i) 180,771 multiplied by (ii) a
fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the
*** Confidential treatment requested pursuant to a request for confidential
treatment filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Omitted portions
have been filed separately with the Commission.
amount, up to [*** Redacted], actually paid to the Company (or its assigns) from
time to time pursuant to the DA minus (x) the total dollar amount of all
equipment or other assets (based on the acquisition price to the Company) as to
which title is transferred by the Company to In-Q-Tel, Inc. pursuant to Section
13 of the DA and (y) all cash or cash equivalents transferred by the Company to
In-Q-Tel, Inc. pursuant to a request by In-Q-Tel, Inc. or pursuant to any other
action through which In-Q-Tel, Inc. seeks refund or payment of such funds, and
(B) the denominator of which is [*** Redacted].
(b) The right to purchase Vested Shares represented by this
Warrant is exercisable by the registered holder hereof, as to all of the Vested
Shares as of the date of such exercise, at any time before the close of business
on the Termination Date by the delivery of this Warrant and the Notice of
Exercise form annexed hereto as Attachment B duly executed to the office of the
Company in Palo Alto, California (or such other office or agency of the Company
as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered holder hereof at the
address of such holder appearing on the books of the Company), and upon payment
of the Exercise Price for the Vested Shares thereby purchased (by cash or by
check or bank draft payable to the order of the Company or by cancellation of
indebtedness of the Company to the holder hereof, if any, at the time of
exercise in an amount equal to the purchase price of the Shares thereby
purchased); whereupon the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive a
certificate for the number of shares of Preferred Stock so purchased. The
Company agrees that if at the time of the surrender of this Warrant and purchase
the holder hereof shall be entitled to exercise this Warrant, the shares so
purchased shall be and be deemed to be issued to such holder as the record owner
of such shares at the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall
have been exercised as aforesaid. If this Warrant is exercised, or converted
pursuant to Section 3 below, for a number of Vested Shares that are less than
the total number of Shares, promptly after surrender of the Warrant upon such
exercise or conversion, the Company will execute and deliver a new warrant
evidencing the right of the Holder to the balance of the Shares purchasable
hereunder upon the same terms and conditions set forth herein, provided that the
issuance of such new warrant shall not accelerate, or be deemed or construed to
accelerate, the vesting of any Shares as set forth in Section 2(a) above, and
the terms of such new warrant shall be modified to the extent necessary to
prevent the acceleration of vesting of any Shares under the terms of this
Warrant.
3. Right to Convert Warrant. The registered holder hereof shall have
the right to convert this Warrant, by the delivery of this Warrant and the
Notice of Conversion form annexed hereto as Attachment B duly executed to the
office of the Company in Palo Alto, California (or such other office or agency
of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered holder
hereof at the address of such holder appearing on the books of the Company), as
to all Shares that are Vested Shares at the time of such conversion, at any time
before the close of business on the Termination Date, into the shares of Series
C Preferred Stock as provided for in this Section 3. Upon exercise of this
conversion right, the holder hereof shall be entitled to receive that number of
Vested Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A - B)(X)] by (A),
where:
(A) = the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of
one (1) Share on the date of conversion of
this Warrant.
(B) = the Exercise Price for one (1) Share under
this Warrant.
*** Confidential treatment requested pursuant to a request for confidential
treatment filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Omitted portions
have been filed separately with the Commission.
-2-
(X) = the number of Vested Shares issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant.
"Fair Market Value" of a Share shall mean:
(a) if the conversion right is being exercised upon the
occurrence of the Company's initial public offering, the initial public offering
price per share (before deducting underwriting commissions and discounts and
offering expenses) multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of one (1) Share issuable upon exercise of this Warrant; and
(b) in all other cases, the fair value as determined in good
faith by the Company's Board of Directors.
Upon conversion of this Warrant, the registered holder hereof shall be
entitled to receive a certificate for the number of Vested Shares determined as
aforesaid.
4. Issuance of Stock; No Fractional Shares or Scrip. Certificates for
the stock purchased hereunder or issuable upon conversion hereof shall be
delivered to the holder hereof promptly after the date on which this Warrant
shall have been exercised or converted as aforesaid. The Company covenants that
all Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of rights represented by this
Warrant will, upon exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, be fully
paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges in respect of
the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring
contemporaneously with such issue). The Company agrees that, if at the time of
the surrender of this Warrant and exercise of the rights represented hereby, the
holder hereof shall be entitled to exercise such rights, the Shares so issued
shall be and be deemed to be issued to such holder as the record owner of such
Shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have
been exercised or converted as aforesaid. No fractional shares or scrip
representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise or conversion
of this Warrant, and any fractional share amounts shall be rounded down to the
nearest whole share issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
5. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for the Shares
upon the exercise or conversion of this Warrant shall be made without charge to
the holder hereof for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in
respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses
shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name
of the holder of this Warrant or in such name or names as may be directed by the
holder of this Warrant; provided, however, that in the event certificates for
Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the holder of this
Warrant, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise or conversion shall be
accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the holder
hereof; and provided further, that upon any transfer involved in the issuance or
delivery of any certificates for the Shares, the Company may require, as a
condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any
transfer tax incidental thereto.
6. No Rights as Shareholders. This Warrant does not entitle the holder
hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company
prior to the exercise or conversion hereof.
-3-
7. Exchange and Registry of Warrant. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon
the surrender hereof by the registered holder at the above-mentioned office or
agency of the Company, for a new Warrant of like tenor and dated as of such
exchange.
The Company shall maintain at the above-mentioned office or agency a
registry showing the name and address of the registered holder of this Warrant.
This Warrant may be surrendered for exchange, transfer or exercise, in
accordance with its terms, at such office or agency of the Company, and the
Company shall be entitled to rely in all respects, prior to written notice to
the contrary, upon such registry.
8. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. Upon receipt by
the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and in case of loss, theft or
destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and upon
reimbursement to the Company of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and
upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company will
make and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation,
in lieu of this Warrant.
9. Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for
the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted
herein shall be a Saturday or a Sunday or shall be a legal holiday, then such
action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day
not a legal holiday.
10. Acquisition, Initial Public Offering and Dilution.
(a) Merger, Sale of Assets, etc.
(i) "Acquisition." For the purpose of this
Warrant, "Acquisition" means any sale, license, or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company (including a sale of all or
substantially all of the intellectual property of the Company), or any
reorganization, consolidation, acquisition or merger of the Company where the
holders of the Company's securities before the transaction own less than 50% of
the outstanding voting securities of the surviving entity after the transaction.
(ii) If at any time after the date hereof the
Company proposes to consummate an Acquisition in which the shareholders of the
Company shall receive cash or publicly traded securities in exchange for their
shares of stock in the Company pursuant to such transaction, then the Company
shall give the holder of this Warrant written notice (the "Merger Notice") of
such impending transaction not later than fifteen (15) days prior to the
shareholders' meeting called to approve such transaction, or fifteen (15) days
prior to the closing of such transaction, whichever is earlier, and shall also
notify the holder of this Warrant of the final approval of such transaction. The
first of such notices shall describe the material terms and conditions of the
impending transaction, and the Company shall thereafter give the holder of this
Warrant prompt notice of any material changes. If this Warrant has not been
exercised or converted by the closing of such transaction then this Warrant
shall terminate and shall no longer be exercisable pursuant to the terms of
Sections 2 or 3 hereof.
-4-
(iii) If this Warrant is not terminated in an
Acquisition pursuant to the provisions of Section 10(a)(ii), (a "Non-Terminating
Acquisition") then, as a condition of such Non-Terminating Acquisition, lawful
and adequate provisions shall be made by the Company whereby the Investor shall
thereafter have the right to purchase and receive (in lieu of the shares of the
Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as applicable, of the Company immediately
theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights
represented by this Warrant) such shares of stock, securities or other assets or
property as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number
of outstanding shares of such Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as applicable,
equal to the number of shares of such stock immediately theretofore purchasable
and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant. In
the event of any Non-Terminating Acquisition, appropriate provision shall be
made by the Company with respect to the rights and interests of the Investor
that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for
adjustments of the Exercise Price and of the number of shares purchasable and
receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall thereafter be applicable, in
relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable
upon the exercise hereof.
(b) Initial Public Offering. If at any time after the date
hereof the Company proposes to consummate the initial public offering ("IPO") of
its Common Stock in a bona fide firm commitment underwriting pursuant to a
registration statement on Form S-1 (or successor form) under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, (the "Securities Act"), then the Company shall give the
Investor written notice of such impending transaction not later than thirty (30)
days prior to the closing of the IPO. Such notice shall describe the material
terms and conditions of the IPO, and the Company shall thereafter give the
holder of this Warrant prompt notice of any material changes. If this Warrant
has not been exercised or converted by the closing of the IPO it shall terminate
and shall no longer be exercisable or convertible pursuant to the terms of
Section 2 or 3 hereof.
(c) Reclassification, etc. If the Company at any time shall,
by subdivision, combination or reclassification of securities or otherwise,
change any of the securities to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist
into the same or a different number of securities of any class or classes, this
Warrant shall thereafter be to acquire such number and kind of securities as
would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the
securities which were subject to the purchase rights under this Warrant
immediately prior to such subdivision, combination, reclassification or other
change. If the Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant are subdivided
or combined into a greater or smaller number of the Shares, the purchase price
under this Warrant shall be proportionately reduced in case of subdivision of
shares or proportionately increased in the case of combination of shares, in
both cases by the ratio which the total number of Shares to be outstanding
immediately after such event bears to the total number of Shares outstanding
immediately prior to such event.
(d) Cash Distributions. No adjustment on account of dividends
on the Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant will be made to the
purchase price under this Warrant.
(e) Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that, during the
period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and
unissued Preferred Stock and Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to
provide for the issuance of the Shares upon the exercise or conversion of this
Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall
constitute
-5-
full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock
certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Shares upon
the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant.
(f) Conversion Price Adjustments. The rate at which the Shares
are convertible into shares of Common Stock of the Company is subject to
adjustment as set forth in the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as
amended from time to time. Any adjustment to the conversion rate of the Shares
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant effected prior to any exercise or
conversion of this Warrant shall apply to any Shares thereafter issued pursuant
to the terms hereof.
(g) Option to Accelerate Vesting of Shares. Prior to the
termination of this Warrant pursuant to the provisions of Section 10(a) or 10(b)
hereunder, In-Q-Tel, Inc. shall have the right to pay to the Company any amounts
that remain unpaid to the Company under the DA and thereby accelerate the
vesting of the Shares in accordance with the formula set forth in Section 2(a)

Inc.
11. Restrictions on Transferability of Securities.
(a) Restrictions on Transferability. This Warrant, the Shares
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, and the shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of the Shares (collectively the "Securities") shall not be sold,
assigned, transferred or pledged except upon the conditions specified in this
Section 11, which conditions are intended to ensure compliance with the
provisions of the Securities Act. Each holder of any of the Securities will
cause any proposed purchaser, assignee, transferee, or pledgee of the Securities
held by such holder to agree in writing to take and hold such Securities subject
to the provisions and upon the conditions specified in this Warrant as if such
purchaser, assignee, transferee or pledgee were the Investor hereunder.
(b) Restrictive Legend. Each certificate representing the
Securities and any other securities issued in respect of the Securities upon any
stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or similar
event, shall (unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of Section 11(c)
below) be stamped or otherwise imprinted with legends in the following form (in
addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws):
(i) 33 Act Legend.
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR
INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
1933. SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF
SUCH REGISTRATION UNLESS THE TRANSFER IS IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 144 OR
SIMILAR RULE OR UNLESS THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL
REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO IT STATING THAT SUCH SALE OR TRANSFER IS
EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF
SAID ACT.
-6-
(ii) Lock-Up Legend.
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE SOLD OR
OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED FOR A PERIOD NOT TO EXCEED 180 DAYS FOLLOWING THE
EFFECTIVE DATE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILED BY THE COMPANY FOR ITS
INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING.
The Investor and each holder of Securities and each subsequent
transferee, assignee, transferee or pledgee (hereinafter collectively, including
the Investor, referred to as a "Holder") consents to the Company making a
notation on its records and giving instructions to any transfer agent of the
Securities in order to implement the restrictions on transfer established in
Sections 11 and 15.
(c) Notice of Proposed Transfers. Each Holder of a certificate
representing the Securities, by acceptance thereof, agrees to comply in all
respects with the provisions of Sections 11 and 15. Prior to any proposed sale,
assignment, transfer or pledge of any Securities (other than (i) a transfer not
involving a change in beneficial ownership, (ii) in transactions involving the
distribution without consideration of Securities by a Holder to any of its
partners, or retired partners, or to the estate of any of its partners or
retired partners, (iii) a transfer to an affiliated fund, partnership or
company, which is not a competitor of the Company, subject to compliance with
applicable securities laws or (iv) transfers in compliance with Rule 144, so
long as the Company is furnished with satisfactory evidence of compliance with
such Rule), unless there is in effect a registration statement under the
Securities Act covering the proposed transfer, the Holder thereof shall give
prior written notice to the Company of such Holder's intention to effect such
transfer, sale, assignment or pledge. Each such notice shall describe the manner
and circumstances of the proposed transfer, sale, assignment or pledge in
sufficient detail, and shall be accompanied, at such Holder's expense, by either
(i) an opinion of counsel (who shall, and whose opinion shall be, addressed to
the Company and reasonably satisfactory to the Company) to the effect that the
proposed transfer of the Securities may be effected without registration under
the Securities Act or (ii) a "no action" letter from the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") to the effect that the transfer of such securities
without registration will not result in a recommendation by the staff of the
Commission that action be taken with respect thereto, whereupon the Holder of
such Securities shall be entitled to transfer such Securities in accordance with
the terms of the notice delivered by such Holder to the Company. Each
certificate evidencing the Securities transferred as above provided shall bear
(except if such transfer is made pursuant to Rule 144, in which case the legend
set forth in Section 11(b)(i) shall not be required) the restrictive legends set
forth in Section 11(b) above, except that each such certificate shall not bear
the legend set forth in Section 11(b)(i) if in the opinion of counsel for such
Holder and in the opinion of counsel for the Company such legend is not required
in order to establish compliance with any provision of the Securities Act.
(d) Removal of Restrictions on Transfer of Securities. The
legend referred to in Section 11(b)(i) hereof stamped on a certificate
evidencing the Securities and the stock transfer instructions and record
notations with respect to the Securities shall be removed, and the Company shall
issue a certificate without such legend to the Holder of the Securities, if the
Securities are registered under the Securities Act, or if such Holder provides
the Company with an opinion of counsel (which may be counsel for the Company)
reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the
-7-
effect that a public sale or transfer of such security may be made without
registration under the Securities Act or such Holder provides the Company with
reasonable assurances, which may, at the option of the Company, include an
opinion of counsel (which may be counsel for the Company) reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, that such security can be sold pursuant to
paragraph (k) of Rule 144 (or any successor provision) under the Securities Act.
After the expiration of the Lock-Up Period (as defined in Section 15 below), and
upon request of the Holder, the legend referred to in Section 11(b)(ii) hereof
stamped on a certificate evidencing the Securities and the stock transfer
instructions and record notations with respect to the Securities shall be
removed, and the Company shall issue a certificate without such legend to the
Holder of the Securities.
12. Investment Representations of the Investor. With respect to the
acquisition of any of the Securities, the Investor hereby represents and
warrants to the Company as follows:
(a) Experience. The Investor has substantial experience in
evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of securities in
companies similar to the Company so that it is capable of evaluating the merits
and risks of its investment in the Company and has the capacity to protect its
own interests.
(b) Investment. The Investor is acquiring the Securities for
investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with the view
to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof. The Investor
understands that the Securities have not been, and will not be, registered under
the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption from the registration
provisions of the Securities Act, the availability of which depends upon, among
other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of
the Investor's representations as expressed herein.
(c) Rule 144. The Investor acknowledges that the Securities
must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities
Act, or unless an exemption from such registration is available. The Investor is
aware of the provisions of Rules 144 and 144A promulgated under the Securities
Act that permit limited resale of securities purchased in a private placement
subject to satisfaction of certain conditions.
(d) No Public Market. The Investor understands that no public
market now exists for any of the securities issued by the Company and that the
Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the
Securities.
(e) Access to Data. The Investor has had an opportunity to
discuss the Company's business, management and financial affairs with the
Company's management and has also had an opportunity to ask questions of the
Company's officers, which questions were answered to the Investor's
satisfaction.

use or disclosure by the Company or any Designated Person of any information
which the Company or any Designated Person would be prohibited from using or
