WHEREAS, on March 2, 2001, the Company entered into a Co-Sale Agreement with the Stockholders set forth therein (the "EXISTING CO-SALE AGREEMENT");
WHEREAS, pursuant to a Unit Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the "UNIT PURCHASE AGREEMENT"), by and among the Company and the investors listed on the signature pages thereto, the Company will issue shares of Series E Preferred Stock and certain warrants exercisable for Common Stock;
WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Unit Purchase Agreement that the Existing Co-Sale Agreement be amended and restated as set forth herein; and
WHEREAS, the parties hereto are willing to execute this Agreement and to be bound by the provisions hereof;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the agreements set forth below, and the parties' desire to further their interests, the parties agree as follows:
1. Certain Definitions.
All terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the "REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT"), by and among the Company and the stockholders signatories thereto.
"Preferred Stock" shall mean the Alternative Equity Financing Stock, Qualified Equity Financing Stock, Future Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock of the Company and Series E Preferred Stock of the Company.
"Preferred Stockholder" shall mean the Stockholders of Preferred Stock.
2. "Tag-Along" Rights for Sales by Rooney, Bayley or Hersma.
(a) If Rooney, Bayley or Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx ("XXXXXX," and for purposes of this SECTION 2, the "PROPOSED TRANSFEROR") at any time or from time to time, in one transaction or in a series of related transactions, desires to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of (collectively, "TRANSFER") (for purposes of this SECTION 2, a "TAG-ALONG SALE") shares of Common Stock and/or Preferred Stock to any Person (including the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company) (for purposes of this SECTION 2, the "PROPOSED TRANSFEREE"), then each of the Preferred Stockholders shall have the right, but not the obligation, to elect that the Proposed Transferor be obligated to require, as a condition to such Tag-Along Sale, that the Proposed Transferee purchase from each such electing Preferred Stockholder:
(i) up to the number of shares of Common Stock derived by multiplying the total number of shares of Common Stock owned by or issuable to such electing Preferred Stockholder by a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the number of shares of Common Stock then owned by or issuable to the Proposed Transferor that are to be purchased by the Proposed Transferee (without giving effect to any reduction in such number of shares by reason of any Preferred Stockholder's election to exercise the "tag-along" rights provided in this SECTION 2 in connection with such transaction) and the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock owned by or issuable to the Proposed Transferor prior to such sale; and
(ii) up to the number of shares of Preferred Stock having a value equal to the amount derived by multiplying the stated purchase price upon the first sale (the "Stated Purchase Price") of the shares of Preferred Stock owned by or issuable to such electing Preferred Stockholder by a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate Stated Purchase Prices of the shares of Preferred Stock then owned by or issuable to the Proposed Transferor that are to be purchased by the Proposed Transferee (without giving effect to any reduction in such number of shares by reason of any Preferred Stockholder's election to exercise the "tag-along" rights provided in this SECTION 2 in connection with such transaction) and the denominator of which is the aggregate Stated Purchase Prices of the shares of Preferred Stock owned by or issuable to the Proposed Transferor prior to such sale;
provided, however, that if any Preferred Stockholder chooses not to sell any or all shares which such Preferred Stockholder may be entitled to sell under this SECTION 2(a), and one or more of the Preferred Stockholders is exercising its right to sell the maximum number of shares permissible (for purposes of this SECTION 2, each, a "REOFFER STOCKHOLDER"), then each Reoffer Stockholder and each of the Proposed Transferors shall have the option to sell such shares as to which the option to sell has not been exercised (for purposes of this SECTION 2, the "REOFFER SHARES"), subject to allocation among them PRO RATA based on their respective ownership of shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as the case may be.
Any such sales by any Preferred Stockholder shall be on the same terms and conditions as the proposed Tag-Along Sale by the Proposed Transferor. Each Preferred Stockholder whose shares are sold in a Tag-Along Sale shall be required to bear a proportionate share of the expenses of the transaction, including, without limitation, legal, accounting and investment banking fees and expenses.
(b) The Proposed Transferor participating in a Tag-Along Sale shall promptly (and in no event less than thirty (30) business days prior to the consummation thereof) provide the Company with notice (for purposes of this SECTION 2, the "PROPOSED TRANSFEROR NOTICE") of the proposed Tag-Along Sale (which the Company shall transmit to each Preferred Stockholder within three (3) business days of its receipt thereof) containing the following:
(i) the name and address of the Proposed Transferee of the shares in the Tag-Along Sale;
(ii) the number of shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock proposed to be Transferred by the Proposed Transferor in the event that none of the Preferred Stockholders elects to participate;
(iii) the proposed amount and form of consideration to be paid for such shares and the terms and conditions of payment offered by the Proposed Transferee;
(iv) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock held of record by such Proposed Transferor as of the date of the notice (for purposes of this SECTION 2, the "NOTICE DATE") from the Proposed Transferor to the Company;
(v) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock held of record as of the Notice Date by all Preferred Stockholders as a group;
(vi) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock each such Preferred Stockholder is entitled to include in the Tag-Along Sale (as computed in accordance with the equations set forth in SECTION 2(a)); and
(vii) that the Proposed Transferee has been informed of the "tag-along" rights provided for in SECTION 2(a).
(c) If a Preferred Stockholder desires to participate in such Tag-Along Sale, such Preferred Stockholder shall provide written notice (for purposes of this SECTION 2, the "TAG-ALONG
2
NOTICE") to such Proposed Transferor not later than ten (10) business days after the Notice Date setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock, if any, such Preferred Stockholder elects to include in the Tag-Along Sale. In the event that any Preferred Stockholder chooses not to sell any or all which such other Preferred Stockholder may be entitled to sell under SECTION 2(a), the Proposed Transferor participating in the Tag-Along Sale shall promptly (and in no event less than fifteen (15) business days prior to the consummation of such Tag-Along Sale) provide the Company with notice (for purposes of this SECTION 2, the "REOFFER NOTICE") of such Reoffer Shares available for sale pursuant to SECTION 2(a) (which the Company shall transmit to each Reoffer Stockholder within three (3) business days of its receipt thereof). If a Reoffer Stockholder desires to participate in the sale of any of the Reoffer Shares, such Reoffer Stockholder shall provide written notice thereof to such Proposed Transferor not later than five (5) business days after receipt of the Reoffer Notice setting forth the number of additional shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock, if any, such Reoffer Stockholder elects to include in the Tag-Along Sale. A Preferred Stockholder may elect to include shares in a Tag-Along Sale only if such Preferred Stockholder elects to include in such Tag-Along Sale a ratio of shares of Common Stock to shares of Preferred Stock equal to the ratio of shares of Common Stock to shares of Preferred Stock proposed to be sold by the Proposed Transferor in the Tag-Along Sale; provided, however, that (i) if a Preferred Stockholder is selling all shares of Common Stock owned by it and its Affiliates in such Tag-Along Sale, then the number of shares of Preferred Stock sold by such Preferred Stockholder in the Tag-Along Sale shall not be limited by the provisions of this sentence and (ii) if a Preferred Stockholder is selling all of the shares of Preferred Stock owned by it and its Affiliates in such Tag-Along Sale, then the number of shares of Common Stock sold by such Preferred Stockholder in the Tag-Along Sale shall not be limited by the provisions of this sentence. In the event that the Proposed Transferee does not purchase the shares of the Proposed Transferor, then the proposed Tag-Along Sale by the Preferred Stockholders to such Proposed Transferee shall not take place.
(d) The provisions of this SECTION 2 shall not apply to any transaction in which shares of Common Stock are proposed to be sold publicly pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Act.
(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the rights and obligations provided for in this SECTION 2 shall terminate, with respect to all shares held by each Preferred Stockholder, upon the occurrence of the effective date of the Company's registration statement in connection with its closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering of shares of Common Stock by the Company and any selling stockholders in which (i) the aggregate price paid for such shares by the public shall be at least $25,000,000 and (ii) implies a pre-equity valuation of the Company of at least $110,000,000.

8. Severability.
If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, will for any reason and to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and application of such provision to other persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto.

11. Captions.
Captions are for convenience only and are not deemed to be part of this Agreement.

The Company shall not, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders of Registrable Securities in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof.
Other than as disclosed on SCHEDULE A attached hereto, the Company has not previously entered into any agreement with respect to its securities granting any "piggy back" registration rights to any Person.
