SECTION 2. TRANSFERS OF SECURITIES
2.1. Lockup. For a period of twelve (12) months following the date hereof, except as otherwise agreed to by the vote of a majority of the Board, no Stockholder shall Transfer any Securities, provided, however, that the restriction contained in this Section 2.1 shall not apply to (a) those Transfers set forth on Schedule B, annexed hereto, or (b) a Transfer to a Permitted Transferee of the Transferring Stockholders, in each case, only if the Transferee in respect of such Transfer executes a Joinder Agreement to this Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, whereby it agrees to be bound by terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, this Section 2.1. Nothing in this Section 2.1 shall create any obligation on the part of
3
the Board, the Company or any other party to consent or agree to any Transfer of Securities, or other waiver of the provisions of this Agreement, such decision to be made in the sole discretion of such parties. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.1 to the contrary, in the event that the Board approves any Transfer of Securities by a CityNet Holder during the twelve-month lockup described above, subject to the fiduciary duties of the Board, each Other Stockholder shall be permitted to Transfer the equivalent percentage of Securities owned by such Other Stockholder as the percentage of Securities owned by such CityNet Holder represented by the Securities that were Transferred pursuant to such Board approval, provided that any Transfer by Other Stockholders pursuant to this sentence shall be on terms that are substantially the same (or more advantageous to the Transferring Other Stockholder) and for an equal or greater price, as the Transfer by a CityNet Holder giving rise to this right. The Board, in each case that a CityNet Holder Transfers Securities with approval of the Board pursuant to this Section 2.1, shall notify each of the Other Stockholders of such Transfer by a CityNet Holder during the twelve-month lockup period.
2.2. Restrictions on Transfer. At all times when this Agreement is in effect with respect to the transferring Stockholder, no Stockholder shall Transfer any Securities to any Person other than (i) through a public sale of Securities or any sale permitted under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act) or (ii) to a Transferee that executes a Joinder Agreement to this Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.
2.3. Non-Compliant Transfers Void. Any Transfer not in compliance with this Section 2 shall not be effective and shall not be recognized by the Company.
