In order to induce the Investors to purchase shares of Series C Preferred Stock and invest funds in the Company pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company hereby agrees that this Agreement shall govern the rights of the Investors, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock and the holders of Series X-x Preferred Stock, to cause the Company to register shares of Common Stock issued or issuable to them and certain other matters as set forth herein.
AGREEMENT
The parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Registration Rights. The Company and the Investors covenant and agree as follows:

1
(c) The term “Form S-3” means such form under the Securities Act as in effect on the date hereof or any successor form under the Securities Act that permits significant incorporation by reference of the Company’s subsequent public filings under the Exchange Act;
(d) The term “Holder” means any person owning or having the right to acquire Registrable Securities or any assignee thereof in accordance with Section 1.12 of this Agreement;
(e) The term “Major Investor” means any holder of Preferred Stock holding that holds at least 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (assuming conversion of all outstanding Preferred Shares) of the Company;
(f) The term “Major Investors Group” means the groups of holders of Preferred Stock listed on Exhibit D hereto;
(g) The term “Qualified IPO” means a firm commitment underwritten public, offering by the Company of shares of its Common Stock with aggregate offering proceeds of at least $10 million, at a Company’s valuation of at least $50 million, in connection with which all the then-outstanding shares of Preferred Stock are converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation as such Restated Certificate of Incorporation may be amended from time to time;
(h) The terms “register,” “registered.” and “registration” refer to a registration effected by preparing and filing a registration statement or similar document in compliance with the Securities Act, and the declaration or ordering of effectiveness of such registration statement or document;
(i) The term “Registrable Securities” means (i) the shares of Common Stock issuable or issued upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock and Series X-x Preferred Stock, other than shares for which registration rights have terminated pursuant to Section 1.15 hereof, and (ii) any other shares of Common Stock of the Company issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security which is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for or in replacement of, the shares listed in (i); excluding in all cases any Registrable Securities sold by a person in a transaction in which his or her rights under this Agreement are not assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Common Stock or other securities shall only be treated as Registrable Securities if and so long as (A) they have not been sold to or through a broker or dealer or underwriter in a public distribution or a public securities transaction, (B) they have not been sold in a transaction exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(1) thereof so that all transfer restrictions, and restrictive legends with respect thereto, if any, are removed upon the consummation of such sale, or (C) the Holder thereof is entitled to exercise any right provided in Section 1 in accordance with Section 1.15 below;
(j) The number of shares of “Registrable Securities then outstanding” shall be determined by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding which are, and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to then exercisable or convertible securities which are, Registrable Securities;
2
(k) The term “SEC” means the Securities and Exchange Commission; and
(I) The term “Securities Act” means the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (and any successor thereto) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
1.2 Request for Registration.
(a) If the Company shall receive at any time after six months after the effective date of the Qualified IPO, a written request from the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding (the “Initiating Holders”) that the Company file a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the registration of Registrable Securities with an anticipated aggregate offering price of at least $2,000,000 (net of any underwriters’ discounts or commissions), then the Company shall, within 20 days of receiving such request, give written notice of such request to all Holders and shall, subject to the limitations of subsection 1.2(b), use all commercially reasonable efforts to effect a registration statement under the Securities Act covering all Registrable Securities which the Holders request to be registered within 20 days of the mailing of such notice by the Company.
(b) If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request and the Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in subsection 1.2(a). The underwriter will be selected by the Company, which underwriter shall be reasonably acceptable to a majority in interest of the Holders whose Registrable Securities are to be included in the underwriting. In such event, the right of any Holder to include his Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders and such Holder) to the extent provided herein. The Company and all Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1.2, if the underwriter advises the Company in good faith that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then there shall be excluded from such registration and underwriting to the extent necessary to satisfy such limitation, first shares held by stockholders other than the Holders, secondly, shares which the Company may wish to register for its own account, and finally to the extent necessary Registrable Securities (pro rata to the respective number of Registrable Securities held by each Holder); provided, however, that in any event all Registrable Shares must be included in such registration prior to any other shares of the Company.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to Holders requesting a registration statement pursuant to this Section 1.2, a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such registration statement to be filed, the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than 120 days after receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders; provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve-month period, and provided, further, that the Company shall not register any securities for the account of itself or any other stockholder during such 120-day period (other than in a Qualified IPO, a registration relating solely to the sale of securities of participants in a Company stock plan, a registration relating to a corporate reorganization or transaction under Rule 145 of the Securities Act, or a registration in which the only Common Stock being registered is Common Stock issuable upon conversion of debt securities which are also being registered).
3
(d) In addition, the Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any registration pursuant to this Section 1.2:
(i) After the Company has effected two (2) registrations pursuant to this Section 1.2 and such registrations have been declared or ordered effective;
(ii) During the period starting with the date 90 days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on a date 90 days after the effective date of, a registration subject to Section 1.3 hereof unless such offering is the initial public offering of the Company’s securities, in which case, ending on a date 180 days after the effective date of such registration subject to Section 1.3 hereof; provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective;
(iii) If the Initiating Holders propose to dispose of shares of Registrable Securities that may be immediately registered on Form S-3 pursuant to a request made pursuant to Section 1.4 below; or
(iv) In any jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, unless the Company is already qualified to do business or subject to service of process in such jurisdiction.
1.3 Company Registration.
(a) If the Company proposes to register (including for this purpose a registration effected by the Company for stockholders other than the Holders) any of its stock under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than a registration relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a Company stock plan or a transaction covered by Rule 145 under the Securities Act, a registration in which the only stock being registered is Common Stock issuable upon conversion of debt securities which are also being registered, or any registration on any form which does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder written notice of such registration. Upon the written request of each Holder given within 20 days after mailing of such notice by the Company in accordance with Section 3.4, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 1.8, use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be registered under the Securities Act all of the Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be registered.
4
(b) The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 1.3 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such registration. The expenses of such registration shall be borne by the Company, in accordance with Section 1.7 hereof.
1.4 Form S-3 Registration. In case the Company shall receive from any Holder or Holders a written request or requests that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3 and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders where the aggregate net proceeds from the sale of such Registrable Shares equals to at least five hundred United States dollars ($500,000), the Company will within twenty (20) days after receipt of any such request:
(a) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders; and
(b) use all commercially reasonable efforts to effect, as soon as practicable, such registration and all such qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holder’s or Holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within 15 days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance, pursuant to this Section 1.4: (i) if Form S-3 is not available for such offering by the Holders; (ii) if the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public of less than $5,000,000(net of any underwriters’ discounts or commissions); (iii) if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such Form S-3 Registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3 registration statement for a period of not more than 120 days after receipt of the request of the Holder or Holders under this Section 1.4; provided, however, that the Company shall not utilize this right more than once in any 12-month period; (iv) if the Company has, within the 12-month period preceding the date of such request, already effected two registrations on Form S-3 for the Holders pursuant to this Section 1.4; (v) in any jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance unless the Company is already qualified to do business or subject to service of process in that jurisdiction; or (vi) during the period ending 180 days after the effective date of a registration statement subject to Section 1.3.
(c) Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a registration statement covering the Registrable Securities and other securities so requested to be registered as soon as practicable after receipt of the request or requests of the Holders. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 1.4 shall not be counted as demands for registration or registrations effected pursuant to Sections 1.2 or 1.3, respectively.
5
1.5 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required under this Section 1 to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:
(a) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for up to 120 days, or until the distribution described in such registration statement is completed, if earlier.
(b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement for up to 120 days, or until the distribution described in such registration statement is completed, if earlier.
(c) Furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them.
(d) Use all commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders, provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions unless the Company is already qualified to do business or subject to service of process in that jurisdiction.
(e) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement.
(f) Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, such obligation to continue for 120 days.
(g) Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Section 1 to be listed on each national securities exchange or trading system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed.
6
(h) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration.
1.6 Information From Holders. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Section 1 with respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect the registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities. The Company shall have no obligation with respect to any registration requested pursuant to Section 1.2 or Section 1.4 of this Agreement if, as a result of the application of the preceding sentence, the anticipated aggregate offering price of the Registrable Securities to be included in the registration does not equal or exceed the anticipated aggregate offering price required to originally trigger the Company’s obligation to initiate such registration as specified in subsection 1.2(a) or subsection 1.4(b)(2), whichever is applicable.
1.7 Expenses of Registration. All expenses other than underwriting discounts and commissions incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Sections 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4 including (without limitation) all registration, filing and qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the selling Holders selected by them with the approval of the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 1.2 or 1.4 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered (in which case all participating Holders shall bear such expenses), unless the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities agree to forfeit their right to one demand registration pursuant to Section 1.2; provided further, however, that if at the time of such withdrawal, the Holders (i) have learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of the Company that was not known to the Holders at the time of their request and (ii) have withdrawn the request with reasonable promptness following disclosure by the Company of such material adverse change, then the Holders shall not be required to pay any of such expenses and shall not forfeit their rights pursuant to Section 1.2.
7
1.8 Underwriting Requirements. In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock, the Company shall not be required under Section 1.3 to include any of the Holders’ securities in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by the Company (or by other persons entitled to select the underwriters), and then only in such quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. If the total amount of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities sold other than by the Company that the underwriters determine in their sole discretion is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Registrable Securities, which the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the securities so included to be apportioned pro rata among the selling stockholders according to the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned by each selling stockholder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by such selling stockholders) but in no event shall the amount of securities of the selling Holders included in the offering be reduced below 40% of the total amount of securities included in such offering, unless such offering is the initial public offering of the Company’s securities, in which case, the selling stockholders may be excluded if the underwriters make the determination described above and no other stockholder’s securities are included. For purposes of the preceding parenthetical concerning apportionment, for any selling stockholder which is a holder of Registrable Securities and which is a venture capital fund, or a partnership or corporation, the Affiliated Funds, partners, retired partners and stockholders of such holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons shall be deemed to be a single “selling stockholder,” and any pro-rata reduction with respect to such “selling stockholder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such “selling stockholder,” as defined in this sentence.
1.9 Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Section 1.
1.10 Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement under this Section 1:
(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a “Violation”): (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law; and the Company will pay to each such Holder, underwriter or controlling person, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 1.10(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable to any Holder, underwriter or controlling person for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by any such Holder, underwriter or controlling person.
8
(b) To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, any underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in such registration statement and any controlling person of any such underwriter or other Holder, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will pay, as incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this subsection 1.10(b), in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 1.10(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that in no event shall any indemnity under this subsection 1.10(b) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in the case of willful fraud by such Holder.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 1.10 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 1.10, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 1.10, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 1.10.
9
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 1.10 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, that in no event shall any contribution by a Holder under this Subsection 1.10(d) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in the case of willful fraud by such Holder. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control.
(f) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 1.10 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement under this Section 1, and otherwise.
1.11 Reports Under the Exchange Act. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the Company agrees to:
(a) Make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144, at all times after 90 days after the effective date of the Qualified IPO so long as the Company remains subject to the periodic reporting requirements under Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;
(b) Take such action, including the voluntary registration of its Common Stock under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, as is necessary to enable the Holders to utilize Form F-3 for the sale of their Registrable Securities, such action to be taken as soon as practicable after the end of the fiscal year in which the first registration statement filed by the Company for the offering of its securities to the general public is declared effective;
(c) File with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and
(d) Furnish to any Holder upon request, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144 (at any time after 90 days after the effective date of the Qualified IPO), the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form F-3 (at any time after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC which permits the selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant to such form.
10
1.12 Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 1 may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder to a transferee or assignee (i) of at least 100,000 shares of such securities (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassification or the like), (ii) that is a subsidiary, parent, partner, limited partner, retired partner, member, retired member or stockholder of a Holder, (iii) that is an Affiliated Fund, (iv) who is a Holder’s child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law (such a relation, a Holder’s “Immediate Family Member”, which term shall include adoptive relationships), or (v) that is a trust for the benefit of an individual Holder or such Holder’s Immediate Family Member, provided that the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned; and provided, further, that such assignment shall be effective only if the transferee agrees to be bound by this Agreement and immediately following such transfer the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act. For the purposes of determining the number of shares of Registrable Securities held by a transferee or assignee, the holdings of transferees and assignees of (x) a partnership who are partners or retired partners of such partnership or (y) a limited liability company who are members or retired members of such limited liability company (including Immediate Family Members of such partners or members who acquire Registrable Securities by gift, will or intestate succession) shall be aggregated together and with the partnership or limited liability company; provided that all assignees and transferees who would not qualify individually for assignment of registration rights shall have a single attorney-in-fact for the purpose of exercising any rights, receiving notices or taking any action under Section 1. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing terms of this Section 1.12 shall not apply to the Warrant issued to Kreos (each, as defined below) (which may be freely assigned subject to the terms of the Warrant), but shall apply with respect to the Conversion Shares (as defined in the Warrant) following the exercise of the Warrant.
1.13 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. Other than with respect to the issuance by the Company to Kreos Capital III (“Kreos”) of a Warrant dated ______, attached hereto as Exhibit 1.13 (the “Warrant”), for the purchase by Kreos of up to 80,000 Series C Preferred Shares (the “Warrant Shares”), including with respect to the Conversion Shares, as defined in the Warrant, into which the Warrant Shares are convertible and which Conversion Shares would constitute Registrable Securities hereunder, from and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Holders of a majority of the outstanding Registrable Securities, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company which would allow such holder or prospective holder (a) to include any of such securities in any registration filed under Section 1.2 hereof, unless under the terms of such agreement, such holder or prospective holder may include such securities in any such registration only to the extent that the inclusion of his securities will not reduce the amount of the Registrable Securities of the Holders which is included or (b) to make a demand registration which could result in such registration statement being declared effective prior to the earlier of either of the dates set forth in subsection 1.2(a) or within 120 days of the effective date of any registration effected pursuant to Section 1.2. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to the Conversion Shares underlying the Warrant issued to Kreos.
11
1.14 Lock-Up Agreement.
(a) Lock-Up Period; Agreement. In connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities and upon request of the underwriters managing such offering of the Company’s securities, each Holder agrees not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company, however or whenever acquired (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of such underwriters for such period of time (not to exceed 180 days) from the effective date of such registration statement as may be requested by the managing underwriters and to execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the Company’s initial public offering.
(b) Limitations. The obligations described in Section 1.14(a) shall apply only if all officers and directors of the Company and all holders of greater than 1% (one percent) of the Company’s securities enter into similar agreements, and shall not apply to a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, or to a registration relating solely to a transaction pursuant to Rule 145 under the Securities Act.
(c) Stop-Transfer Instructions. In order to enforce the foregoing covenants, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the securities of each Holder (and the securities of every other person subject to the restrictions in Section 1.14(a)).
(d) Transferees Bound. Each Holder agrees that prior to the Company’s initial public offering it will not transfer securities of the Company unless each transferee agrees in writing to be bound by all of the provisions of this Section 1.14, provided that this Section 1.14(d) shall not apply to transfers pursuant to a registration statement or transfers after the 12-month anniversary of the effective date of the Company’s initial registration statement subject to this Section 1.14.
1.15 Termination of Registration Rights. No Holder shall be entitled to exercise any right provided for in this Section 1 after the earlier of (i) five (5) years following the consummation of a Qualified IPO, (ii) with respect to any Holder, at such time after the Qualified IPO as Rule 144 or another similar exemption under the Securities Act is available for the sale of all of such Holder’s shares during a three-month period without registration, or (iii) upon termination of the Agreement, as provided in Section 3.1.
2. Covenants of the Company.
2.1 Delivery of Financial Statements. The Company shall deliver to each Major Investor and to shareholders designated as representatives for such purpose by each Major Investors Group:
(a) as soon as practicable, but in any event within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, an income statement for such fiscal year, a balance sheet of the Company and statement of stockholder’s equity as of the end of such year, and a statement of cash flows for such year, such year-end financial reports to be in reasonable detail, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and audited and certified by an accounting firm associated with one of the “Big 4” US accounting firms selected by the Company;
12
(b) as soon as practicable, but in any event within 45 days after the end of each of the first three quarters of each fiscal year of the Company, an unaudited profit or loss statement, a statement of cash flows for such fiscal quarter and an unaudited balance sheet as of the end of such fiscal quarter, reviewed by an accounting firm associated with one of the “Big 4” US accounting firms selected by the Company;
(c) within 14 days of the end of each month, a monthly report in a form agreed by the Board of Directors;
(d) as soon as practicable, but in any event 45 days prior to the end of each fiscal year, a budget and operating plan for the next fiscal year, prepared on a monthly basis, and, as soon as prepared, any other updated or revised budgets for such fiscal year prepared by the Company; and
(e) with respect to the financial statements called for in subsections (b) and (c) of this Section 2.1, an instrument executed by the Chief Financial Officer or President of the Company and certifying that such financials were prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied with prior practice for earlier periods (with the exception of footnotes that may be required by GAAP) and fairly present the financial condition of the Company and its results of operation for the period specified, subject to year-end audit adjustment, provided that the foregoing shall not restrict the right of the Company to change its accounting principles consistent with GAAP, if the Board of Directors determines that it is in the best interest of the Company to do so.
2.2 Inspection. The Company shall permit each Major Investor and each shareholder designated as a representative for such purpose by each Major Investors Group, at such Major Investor’s and Major Investors Group’s expense, to visit and inspect the Company’s properties, to examine its books of account and records and to discuss the Company’s affairs, finances and accounts with its officers, all at such reasonable times as may be requested by the Major Investor or by such representatives of the Major Investors Groups; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated pursuant to this Section 2.2 to provide access to any information which it reasonably considers to be a trade secret or similar confidential information.
2.3 Right of First Offer. Subject to the terms and conditions specified in this Section 2.3, the Company hereby grants to each Major Investor and the Major Investors Groups listed in Exhibit D hereto (as long as each Major Investors Group continues to hold in the aggregate at least 5% of the Company’s voting rights) (collectively for the purpose of this Section 2.3, “Investors”) a right of first offer with respect to future sales by the Company of its Shares (as hereinafter defined). A Major Investor or a Major Investors Group who chooses to exercise the right of first offer may designate as purchasers under such right itself or its partners or affiliates, including Affiliated Funds and any member of the Major Investors Groups, in such proportions as it deems appropriate.
13
Each time the Company proposes to offer any shares of, or securities convertible into for any shares of, any class of its capital stock (“Shares”), the Company shall first make an offering of such Shares to each Major Investor and each Major Investors Group in accordance with the following provisions:
(a) The Company shall deliver a notice (the “RFO Notice”) to the Major Investors and to the shareholders designated as representatives for this purpose by each of the Major Investors Groups stating (i) its bona fide intention to offer such Shares, (ii) the number of such Shares to be offered, and (iii) the price and terms, if any, upon which it proposes to offer such Shares.
(b) Within 15 calendar days after delivery of the RFO Notice, each Investor may elect to purchase or obtain, at the price and on the terms specified in the RFO Notice, up to that portion of such Shares which equals the proportion that the number of shares of Common Stock issued and held, or issuable upon conversion of all convertible securities then held, by such Investor bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (assuming full conversion of all convertible securities), provided that a Major Investors Group may only elect to purchase at least 5% of the Shares. Such purchase shall be completed at the same closing as that of any third party purchasers or at an additional closing thereunder. The Company shall promptly, in writing, inform each Investor that purchases all the shares available to it (each, a “Fully-Exercising Investor”) of any other Investor’s failure to do likewise. During the 10-day period commencing after receipt of such information, each Fully-Exercising Investor shall be entitled to obtain that portion of the Shares for which Investors were entitled to subscribe but which were not subscribed for by the Investors that is equal to the proportion that the number of shares of Common Stock issued and held, or issuable upon conversion of all convertible securities then held, by such Fully-Exercising Investor bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (assuming full conversion of all convertible securities).
(c) The Company may, during the 45-day period following the expiration of the period provided in subsection 2.3(b) hereof, offer the remaining unsubscribed portion of the Shares to any person or persons at a price not less than, and upon terms no more favorable to the offeree than those specified in the RFO Notice. If the Company does not enter into an agreement for the sale of the Shares within such period, or if such agreement is not consummated within 90 days of the execution thereof, the right provided hereunder shall be deemed to be revived and such Shares shall not be offered unless first reoffered to the Major Investors and the Major Investors Groups in accordance herewith.
(d) The right of first offer in this Section 2.3 shall not be applicable to (i) the issuance of securities in connection with stock dividends, stock splits or similar transactions; (ii) the issuance or sale of Common Stock (or options therefor) to employees, consultants and directors of the Company, directly or pursuant to a stock option plan, restricted stock purchase plans or other stock plan approved by the Board of Directors; (iii) the issuance of securities in connection with bona fide acquisition, merger or similar transaction, the terms of which are approved by the Board of Directors; (iv) the issuance or sale of the Series C Preferred Stock or the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series A-l Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series X-x Preferred Stock and the Series C Preferred Stock; (v) the issuance of Common Stock in a Qualified IPO; or (vi) the issuance of securities with the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock, voting together as a class. In addition to the foregoing, the right of first offer in this Section 2.3 shall not be applicable with respect to any Major Investor or to any member of a Major Investors Group and any subsequent securities issuance, if (x) at the time of such subsequent securities issuance, the Major Investor or such member of the Major Investor Group is not an “accredited investor”, as that term is then defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act, and (y) such subsequent securities issuance is being offered only to accredited investors according to the unanimous written consent of the Company’s Board of Directors.
14
2.4 Termination of Covenants.
(a) The covenants set forth in Sections 2.1 through Section 2.3 shall terminate as to each Holder and be of no further force or effect (i) immediately prior to the consummation of a Qualified IPO, or (ii) upon termination of the Agreement, as provided in Section 3.1.
(b) The covenants set forth in Sections 2.1 and 2.2 shall terminate as to each Holder and be of no further force or effect when the Company first becomes subject to the periodic reporting requirements of Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, if this occurs earlier than the events described in Section 2.4(a) above.
3. Termination of the Investor’s Right Agreement dated December 6, 2006
The Company, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock, the holders of Series X-x Preferred Stock the holders of Series A Preferred Stock and the holders of Series A-l Preferred Stock agree that this Agreement restated, amends, supersedes, and terminates the Investor’s Right Agreement dated December 6, 2006.
4. Miscellaneous
4.1 Termination. This Agreement shall terminate, and have no further force and effect, when the Company shall consummate a transaction or series of related transactions deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company pursuant to the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as such Restated Certificate of Incorporation may be amended from time to time.
4.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof, and any and all other written or oral agreements relating to the subject matter hereof existing between the parties hereto are expressly canceled.
4.3 Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective permitted successors and assigns of the parties (including transferees of any of the Series C Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock, the holders of Series X-x Preferred Stock the Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of Series A-l Preferred Stock or any Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof). Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations, or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.
15
4.4 Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended or waived only with the written consent of the Company and the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding; provided, however, if such amendment or waiver would adversely affect the rights of a specific series of Preferred Stock in a manner different from the other series of Preferred Stock, then such amendment or waiver shall require the consent of the Investors holding a majority in interest of such series of Preferred Stock; and any amendment or waiver of the rights granted to the Major Investors in Section 2 above shall require the consent of a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities held by the Major Investors. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon each party to the Agreement, whether or not such party has signed such amendment or waiver, each future holder of all such Registrable Securities, and the Company.
4.5 Notices. Unless otherwise provided, any notice required or permitted by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficient upon delivery, when delivered personally or by overnight courier or sent by facsimile, or 48 hours after being deposited in the U.S. mail, as certified or registered mail, with postage prepaid, and addressed to the party to be notified at such party’s address or facsimile number as set forth on Exhibit A hereto or as subsequently modified by written notice.
4.6 Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, and the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
4.7 Governing Law. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Israel, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws.
4.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
4.9 Titles and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.
4.10 Aggregation of Stock. All shares of the Preferred Stock held or acquired by affiliated entities or persons shall be aggregated together for the purpose of determining the availability of any rights under this Agreement.

Rights of Stockholders. Subject to the provisions of this Warrant, the Holder shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of Preferred Stock or any other securities of the Company that may at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose, until this Warrant or any portion hereof shall have been exercised and the Warrant Shares shall have been issued, as provided herein. Nothing in the foregoing to the contrary, upon exercise of this Warrant, or any portion thereof, the Holder shall be entitled to all rights of a holder of the class of shares constituting the Warrant Shares under the COI, and in addition all rights on the same terms and conditions afforded, by contract or otherwise, to the investors and/or purchasers of such shares in connection with the applicable financing round in which such shares were purchased, as applicable.

Reservation of Shares. The Company covenants that during the Term this Wan-ant is exercisable, the Company will reserve from its authorized and unissued capital stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Warrant Shares (the “Conversion Shares”). The Company further covenants that all Warrant Shares and Conversion Shares will, upon full payment from the Holder (or by way of cashless exercise), be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and will be free from all taxes, liens, and charges in respect of the issue thereof. The Company agrees that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers to register the Holder as the owner of Warrant Shares and Conversion Shares, and to execute and issue the necessary certificates for Warrant Shares and Conversion Shares, upon the exercise of this Warrant and the conversion of the Warrant Shares, respectively.
|
|
11.
|
Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Warrant may be amended and the observance of any term of this Warrant may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with the written consent of the Company and the Holder. No waivers of, or exceptions to any term, condition or provision of this Warrant, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or construed as, a further or continuing waiver of any such term, condition or provision.
|
|
12.
|
Adjustments. The Exercise Price and the number and kind of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder are subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
|
|
|
12.1.
|
Reclassification, etc. If the Company at any time while this Warrant, or any portion thereof, remains outstanding and unexpired shall, by reorganization or reclassification of securities or otherwise, change any of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes (including, without limitation, in case of conversion of all shares of the class as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist into shares of Common Stock in connection with an IPO (other than a Qualified IPO, upon the closing of which the Term hereof shall end as provided in Section 1 above), this Warrant shall thereafter represent the right 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 reorganization or reclassification or other change and the Exercise Price then in effect shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such reorganization or reclassification, be proportionately adjusted such that this Warrant shall be exercisable into, in lieu of the number of Warrant Shares which the Holder would otherwise have been entitled to receive, a number of shares of such other class or classes of shares that would have been subject to receipt by the Holder had the Holder exercised the Warrant immediately before that change.
|
5
|
|
12.2.
|
Split, Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and unexpired shall split, subdivide or combine the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist (including, with respect to a split or subdivision, by way of the issuance of a stock dividend or bonus shares), into a different number of securities of the same class, the Exercise Price for such securities shall be proportionately decreased and the number of securities issuable upon exercise proportionately increased in the case of a split or subdivision or the Exercise Price of such securities shall be proportionately increased and the number of securities issuable upon exercise proportionately decreased in the case of a combination.
|
|
|
12.3.
|
Adjustments for Share Dividends or Other Securities or Property. If, while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and unexpired, the holders of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist at the time shall have received, or, on or after the record date fixed for the determination of eligible stockholders, shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefor, other or additional shares or other securities or property of the Company by way of dividend or otherwise, then and in each case, this Warrant shall represent the right to acquire, in addition to the number of shares of the security receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant, and without payment of any additional consideration thereof, the amount of such other or additional shares or other securities or property as aforesaid of the Company which such Holder would hold on the date of such exercise had it been the holder of record of the security receivable upon exercise of this Warrant on the date hereof and had thereafter, during the period from the date hereof to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional securities available by it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for during such period by the provisions of this Section 12.
|
6
|
|
Anti-Dilution Adjustment. If, while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and unexpired, the Company issues or sells any class or series of securities or any instrument convertible into securities of the Company at a price per share such that the class of Warrant Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable are entitled to an anti-dilution adjustment pursuant to the COI, or if the conversion price of the class of Warrant Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable is otherwise being reduced, then such reduction shall be deemed to apply automatically to the Warrant Shares purchasable by exercising this Warrant, such that upon such exercise, the conversion price of the Warrant Shares shall be that reduced conversion price determined for the class of shares constituting the Warrant Shares. Without derogating from the above, in the event that at any time during the Term of this Warrant, the Company issues to holders of shares constituting Warrant Shares at such time, shares of the Company at a price per share that is lower than the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares at the time of such issuance or without receipt of consideration (including, without limitation, in connection with anti-dilution adjustments and/or indemnification undertakings relating to such Warrant Shares), reflecting an average price per share for the aggregate number of (A) Warrant Shares of such class held by such holders prior to such issuance plus (B) the shares issued to them in such issuance, that is lower than the Exercise Price applicable to the Warrant Shares at the time of such issuance (in each case, the “New Price”), then the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the New Price; it being understood that such adjustment shall not be made if such new shares are issued to such holders as part of a bona fide investment transaction in which the shares are issued in return for consideration representing the fair market value of such shares, as determined by the Board of Directors, at the time of issuance (but without derogating from any reduction of the conversion price of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise hereof as may be applicable in connection with such transaction pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 12.4). For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Holder be entitled to receive more than one anti-dilution adjustment pursuant to this Section 12.4 such that no such anti-dilution adjustment will be made pursuant to this Section 12.4 to the extent that such adjustment is effected with respect to the Warrant Shares issued upon exercise hereof and the Holder receives such adjustment upon conversion of the underlying preferred stock into common stock of the Company.
|
|
|
12.5.
|
Other Events. If, while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and unexpired, any other event occurs as to which the provisions of this Section 12 do not strictly apply or if strictly applicable would not fairly protect the purchase rights of the Holder in accordance with the provisions hereof, then the Board of Directors of the Company shall make an adjustment in the number and class of shares available under the Warrant, the Exercise Price or the application of such provisions, so as to protect such purchase rights as aforesaid. The adjustment shall be such as will give the Holder upon exercise for the same aggregate Exercise Price the total number, class and kind of shares as such Holder would have owned had the Warrant been exercised prior to the event and had the Holder continued to hold such shares until after the event requiring adjustment.
|
|
|
12.6.
|
Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment pursuant to this Section 12, the Company shall, upon the written request of any holder of this Warrant, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a certificate setting forth: (i) such adjustments and readjustments; (ii) the Exercise Price at the time in effect; and (iii) the number of shares and the amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon the exercise of the Warrant.
|
7
|
|
12.7.
|
No Impairment. The Company will not, by any voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all of the provisions of this Section 12 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the holders of this Warrant against impairment.
|
|
13.
|
Governing Law. This Warrant and the legal relations between the parties arising hereunder shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any dispute arising under or with respect to this Warrant shall be resolved in the competent courts of Tel Aviv-Jaffa in Israel. Each party irrevocably waives any objection it may have to the venue of any action, suit or proceeding brought in such courts or to the convenience of the forum and each party irrevocably waives the right to proceed in any other jurisdiction. Final judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment, a certified or true copy of which shall be conclusive evidence thereof.
|
|
14.
|
Successors and Assigns; Transfer. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties hereto. Subject to applicable law, the Holder may freely assign, distribute or otherwise transfer this Warrant (including, notwithstanding anything to the contrary stated in Section 1.12 of the XXX, the Registration Rights granted hereunder), in whole or in part, to a Permitted Transferee (as defined in the COI) of the Holder or to any assignee of the Holder under the Venture Loan Agreement entered into between the Holder and the Company dated April, 2008 (in accordance with the terms thereof). With respect to any offer, sale or other disposition of this Warrant, the Holder will give written notice to the Company prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof and the identity of the transferee. Upon receiving such written notice, the Company, as promptly as practicable, shall deliver to the Holder one or more replacement Warrant certificates on the same terms and conditions as this Warrant for delivery to the transferees, which shall become effective, in the case of a transfer of all or a portion of this Warrant, upon the execution of such Warrant certificate by the Company and by the transferee and provided that the transferee agrees to be bound by the terms of this Warrant. For the avoidance of any doubt, following the exercise of this Warrant, the transfer of the Warrant Shares and the Conversion Shares shall be subject to applicable law and the terms of the COI and the XXX.
|
|
15.
|
Tax. The Company shall not pay any income taxes which shall apply on the Holder, if any, by virtue of the holding, issuance, exercise or sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares or the shares into which such Warrant Shares are convertible.
|
|
16.
|
In the event this Warrant is assigned, distributed or otherwise transferred with respect to less than all of the Warrant Shares hereunder, then at the Holder’s or transferee’s request, the Company at its expense will execute and deliver new Warrants of like tenor to each of the Holder and the transferee, representing the numbers of Warrant Shares remaining with the Holder and being transferred to the transferee, respectively.

(d) Remaining Assets. Upon the completion of the distribution required by Sections 2(a), 2(b) and 2(c) above and any other distribution that may be required with respect to series of Preferred Stock that may from time to time come into existence, the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to stockholders shall be distributed among the holders of the Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x and Series C Preferred Stock and the holders of Common Stock pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by each such holder (assuming conversion of all such Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x and Series C Preferred Stock into Common Stock) until (i) with respect to the holders of Series C Preferred Stock, such holders shall have received the higher of (a) an aggregate amount per share of $7.5 (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassification and the like) then held by them (including amounts paid pursuant to Section 2(a) above); or (b) the amount they would receive in Common Stock on an as-if-converted basis without taking into account the A Preference Amount and the B Preference Amount, and (ii) with respect to the holders of Series B Preferred Stock and Series X-x Preferred Stock, such holders shall have received the higher of (a) an aggregate amount per share of $3.3882 (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassification and the like) then held by them (including amounts paid pursuant to Section 2(a) above) or (b) the amount they would receive in Common Stock on an as-if-converted basis without taking into account the A Preference Amount and the B Preference Amount, and (iii) with respect to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock and Series A-l Preferred Stock, such holders shall have received the higher of (a) an aggregate amount per share of $1.9335 (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassification and the like) then held by them (including amounts paid pursuant to Section 2(b) above) or (b) the amount they would receive in Common Stock on an as-if-converted basis without taking into account the C Preference Amount, the B Preference Amount and the A Preference Amount; thereafter, subject to the rights of series of Preferred Stock that may from time to time come into existence, if assets remain in the Corporation, the holders of the Common Stock of the Corporation shall receive all of the remaining assets of the Corporation pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by each holder.
(e) Certain Acquisitions.
(i) Deemed Liquidation. For purposes of this Section 2, a liquidation, dissolution, public offering or winding up of the Corporation shall be deemed to occur if the Corporation shall sell, grant exclusive license, convey, or otherwise dispose of all or a significant portion of its property (or intellectual property) or business, reverse merger of the Corporation’s shares into a publicly traded corporation or merge with or into or consolidate with any other corporation, limited liability company or other entity (other than a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation) (any such transaction, a “Liquidation Transaction”), provided that none of the following shall be considered a Liquidation Transaction: (i) a merger effected exclusively for the purpose of changing the domicile of the Corporation, or (ii) an equity financing in which the Corporation is the surviving corporation.
4
(ii) Valuation of Consideration. In the event of a deemed liquidation as described in Section 2(c)(i) above, if the consideration received by the Corporation is other than cash, its value will be deemed its fair market value. Any securities shall be valued as follows:
(A) Securities not subject to investment letter or other similar restrictions on free marketability:
(1) If traded on a securities exchange or The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”), the value shall be based on a formula approved by the Board of Directors and derived from the closing prices of the securities on such exchange or Nasdaq over a specified time period;
(2) If actively traded over-the-counter, the value shall be based on a formula approved by the Board of Directors and derived from the closing bid or sales prices (whichever is applicable) of such securities over a specified time period; and
(3) If there is no active public market, the value shall be the fair market value thereof, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.
(B) The method of valuation of securities subject to investment letter or other restrictions on free marketability (other than restrictions arising solely by virtue of a stockholder’s status as an affiliate or former affiliate) shall be to make an appropriate discount from the market value determined as specified above in Section 2(e)(ii)(A) to reflect the approximate fair market value thereof, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.
(iii) Notice of Liquidation Transaction. The Corporation shall give each holder of record of Series A Preferred Stock, Series A-l Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series X-x Preferred Stock or Series C Preferred Stock written notice of any impending Liquidation Transaction not later than 10 days prior to the stockholders’ meeting called to approve such Liquidation Transaction, or 10 days prior to the closing of such Liquidation Transaction, whichever is earlier, and shall also notify such holders in writing of the final approval of such Liquidation Transaction. The first of such notices shall describe the material terms and conditions of the impending Liquidation Transaction and the provisions of this Section 2, and the Corporation shall thereafter give such holders prompt notice of any material changes. Unless such notice requirements are waived, the Liquidation Transaction shall not take place sooner than 10 days after the Corporation has given the first notice provided for herein or sooner than 10 days after the Corporation has given notice of any material changes provided for herein. Notwithstanding the other provisions of these Restated Certificate, all notice periods or requirements in these Restated Certificate may be shortened or waived, either before or after the action for which notice is required, upon the written consent of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock that are entitled to such notice rights.
5
(iv) Effect of Noncompliance. In the event the requirements of this Section 2(e) are not complied with, the Corporation shall forthwith either cause the closing of the Liquidation Transaction to be postponed until the requirements of this Section 2 have been complied with, or cancel such Liquidation Transaction, in which event the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the holders of Series A , Series A-l, Series B , Series X-x and Series C Preferred Stock shall revert to and be the same as such rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions existing immediately prior to the date of the first notice referred to in Section 2(e)(iii).
3. Redemption. The Preferred Stock is not redeemable.
4. Conversion. The holders of the Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x and Series C Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as follows (the “Conversion Rights”):
(a) Right to Convert. Subject to Section 4(c), each share of Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x and Series C Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time after the date of issuance of such share, at the office of the Corporation or any transfer agent for such stock, into such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the applicable Price Per Share for such shares by the Conversion Price applicable to such share, determined as hereafter provided, in effect on the date the certificate is surrendered for conversion. The initial Conversion Price per share shall be the Series A Price Per Share for shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the Series A-l Price Per Share for shares of Series A-l Preferred Stock, the Series B Price Per Share for shares of Series B Preferred Stock, the Series X-x Xxxxx Per Share for shares of Series X-x Preferred Stock and the Series C Price Per Share for shares of Series C Preferred Stock, Such initial Conversion Prices shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 4(d) below.
(b) Automatic Conversion. Each share of Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x or Series C Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Price at the time in effect for such share immediately upon the earlier of (i) except as provided below in Section 4(c), the Corporation’s sale of its Common Stock in a firm commitment underwritten public offering by the Company of shares of its Common Stock with aggregate offering proceeds of at least $10 million, at a Company’s valuation of at least $50 million, in connection with which all the then-outstanding shares of Preferred Stock are converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Restated Certificate as such Restated Certificate may be amended from time to (a “Qualified IPO”) or (ii) the date specified by written consent or agreement of the holders of seventy five percent (75%) of the then outstanding shares of Series B, Series X-x and Series C Preferred Stock.
6
(c) Mechanics of Conversion. Before any holder of Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x or Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to convert such Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, the holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for such series of Preferred Stock, and shall give written notice to the Corporation at its principal corporate office, of the election to convert the same and shall state therein the name or names in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock are to be issued. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver at such office to such holder of Preferred Stock, or to the nominee or nominees of such holder, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the shares of such series of Preferred Stock to be converted, and the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock as of such date. If the conversion is in connection with an underwritten public offering of securities registered pursuant to the Securities Act the conversion may, at the option of any holder tendering such Preferred Stock for conversion, be conditioned upon the closing with the underwriters of the sale of securities pursuant to such offering, in which event any persons entitled to receive Common Stock upon conversion of such Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to have converted such Preferred Stock until immediately prior to the closing of such sale of securities.
(d) Conversion Price Adjustments of Preferred Stock for Certain Dilutive Issuances, Splits and Combinations. The Conversion Price of the Series A, Series A-1, Series B, Series X-x and Series C Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
(i) Issuance of Additional Stock below Purchase Price. If the Corporation should issue, at any time after the date upon which any shares of Series A, Series B or Series C Preferred Stock were first issued (the “Purchase Date” with respect to such series), any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Conversion Price for such series in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock, the Conversion Price for such series in effect immediately prior to each such issuance shall automatically be adjusted as set forth in this Section 4(d)(i), unless otherwise provided in this Section 4(d)(i)
(A) Adjustment Formula. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to this Section (4)(d)(i), the new Conversion Price shall be determined by multiplying the Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction, (x) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (the “Outstanding Common”) plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for such issuance would purchase at such Conversion Price; and (y) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Outstanding Common plus the number of shares of such Additional Stock. For purposes of the foregoing calculation, the term “Outstanding Common” shall include shares of Common Stock deemed issued pursuant to Section 4(d)(i)(E) below.
(B) Definition of “Additional Stock”. For purposes of this Section 4(d)(i), “Additional Stock” shall mean any shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 4(d)(i)(E))by the Corporation after the Purchase Date) other than:
(1) Common Stock issued pursuant to stock dividends, stock splits or similar transactions, as described in Section 4(d)(ii) hereof;
7
(2) Shares of Common Stock issued or issuable to employees, consultants or directors of the Corporation directly or pursuant to a stock option plan or restricted stock plan approved by the Board of Directors of the Corporation;
(3) Shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x or Series C Preferred Stock;
(4) Shares of Common Stock issued or issuable in a public offering prior to or in connection with which all outstanding shares of Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x and Series C Preferred Stock will be converted to Common Stock;
(5) Shares of Common Stock issued or issuable with the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series B, Series X-x and Series C Preferred Stock, voting together as a class.
(C) No Fractional Adjustments. No adjustment of the Conversion Price for the Series A, Series A-l; Series B, Series X-x or Series C Preferred Stock shall be made in an amount less than one cent per share, provided that any adjustments which are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be either taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made prior to three years from the date of the event giving rise to the adjustment being carried forward, or shall be made at the end of three years from the date of the event giving rise to the adjustment being carried forward.
(D) Determination of Consideration. In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any reasonable discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Corporation for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. In the case of the issuance of the Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment.
(E) Deemed Issuances of Common Stock. In the case of the issuance (whether before, on or after the applicable Purchase Date) of securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock (the “Common Stock Equivalents”), the following provisions shall apply for all purposes of this Section 4(d)(i):
(1) The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion, exchange or exercise (assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to convertibility, exchangeability or exercisability, including, without limitation, the passage of time, but without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) of any Common Stock Equivalents and subsequent conversion, exchange or exercise thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such Common Stock Equivalents were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration, if any, received by the Corporation for any such securities and related Common Stock Equivalents (excluding any cash received on account of accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Corporation (without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of any Common’ Stock Equivalents (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Section 4(d)(i)(C)).
8
(2) In the event of any change in the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable or in the consideration payable to the Corporation upon conversion, exchange or exercise of any Common Stock Equivalents, other than a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Conversion Price of any series of Preferred Stock, to the extent in any way affected by or computed using such Common Stock Equivalents, shall be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock or any payment of such consideration upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of such Common Stock Equivalents.
(3) Upon the termination or expiration of the convertibility, exchangeability or exercisability of any Common Stock Equivalents, the Conversion Price of any series of Preferred Stock, to the extent in any way affected by or computed using such Common Stock Equivalents, shall be recomputed to reflect the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock (and Common Stock Equivalents that remain convertible, exchangeable or exercisable) actually issued upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of such Common Stock Equivalents.
(4) The number of shares of Common Stock deemed issued and the consideration deemed paid therefor pursuant to Section 4(d)(i)(E)(l) shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any change, termination or expiration of the type described in either Section 4(d)(i)(E)(2) or 4(d)(i)(E)(3).
(F) No Increased Conversion Price. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section (4)(d)(i), except to the limited extent provided for in Sections 4(d)(i)(E)(2) and 4(d)(i)(E)(3), no adjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 4(d)(i) shall have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price above the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.
(ii) Stock Splits and Dividends. In the event the Corporation should at any time after the Purchase Date fix a record date for the effectuation of a split or subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents without payment of any consideration by such holder for the additional shares of Common Stock or the Common Stock Equivalents (including the additional shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof), then, as of such record date (or the date of such dividend distribution, split or subdivision if no record date is fixed), the Conversion Price of each of the Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x and Series C Preferred Stock shall be appropriately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of such series shall be increased in proportion to such increase of the aggregate of shares of Common Stock outstanding and those issuable with respect to such Common Stock Equivalents with the number of shares issuable with respect to Common Stock Equivalents determined from time to time in the manner provided for deemed issuances in Section 4(d)(i)(E).
9
(iii) Reverse Stock Splits. If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time after the Purchase Date is decreased by a combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date of such combination, the Conversion Price for each of the Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x and Series C Preferred Stock shall be appropriately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of such series shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares.
(e) Other Distributions. In the event the Corporation shall declare a distribution payable in securities of other persons, evidences of indebtedness issued by the Corporation or other persons, assets (excluding cash dividends) or options or rights not referred to in Section 4(d)(i) or 4(d)(ii), then, in each such case for the purpose of this Section 4(e), the holders of Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x and Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to a proportionate share of any such distribution as though they were the holders of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation into which their shares of Preferred Stock are convertible as of the record date fixed for the determination of the holders of Common Stock of the Corporation entitled to receive such distribution.
(f) Recapitalizations. If at any time or from time to time there shall be a recapitalization of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision, combination or merger or sale of assets transaction provided for elsewhere in this Section 4 or Section 2) provision shall be made so that the holders of the Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x and Series C Preferred Stock shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of such Preferred Stock the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Corporation or otherwise, to which a holder of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such recapitalization. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 4 with respect to the rights of the holders of such Preferred Stock after the recapitalization to the end that the provisions of this Section 4 (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares purchasable upon conversion of such Preferred Stock) shall be applicable after that event and be as nearly equivalent as practicable.
(g) No Impairment. The Corporation will not, through any reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Corporation, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 4 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the Conversion Rights of the holders of Preferred Stock against impairment.
10
(h) No Fractional Shares and Certificate as to Adjustments.
(i) No fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of any share or shares of the Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x and Series C Preferred Stock, and the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share. The number of shares issuable upon such conversion shall be determined on the basis of the total number of shares of Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x and Series C Preferred Stock the holder is at the time converting into Common Stock and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such aggregate conversion. If the conversion would result in any fractional share, the Corporation shall, in lieu of issuing any such fractional share, pay the holder thereof an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of such fractional share on the date of conversion, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.
(ii) Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price of Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x or Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 4, the Corporation, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare and furnish to each holder of such Preferred Stock a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Corporation shall, upon the written request at any time of any holder of Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x or Series C Preferred Stock, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a like certificate setting forth (A) such adjustment and readjustment, (B) the Conversion Price for such series of Preferred Stock at the time in effect, and (C) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of a share of such series of Preferred Stock.
(i) Notices of Record Date. In the event of any taking by the Corporation of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend (other than a cash, dividend) or other distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, the Corporation shall mail to each holder of Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x or Series C Preferred Stock, at least 10 days prior to the date specified therein, a notice specifying the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right.
(j) Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion. The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of the Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x and Series C Preferred Stock, such number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of such series of Preferred Stock; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of such series of Preferred Stock, in addition to such other remedies as shall be available to the holder of such Preferred Stock, the Corporation will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder approval of any necessary amendment to this Restated Certificate.
11
(k) Notices. Any notice required by the provisions of this Section 4 to be given to the holders of shares of Series A, Series A-l, Series B, Series X-x or Series C Preferred Stock shall be deemed given if deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, and addressed to each holder of record at his address appearing on the books of the Corporation.

(c) In such case the Acceptances shall constitute an agreement for the sale and purchase of all the Offered Shares at the price and conditions specified in the Offer, and the Offeror shall transfer all the Offered Shares to the Accepting Offeree(s) within 15 days after the expiration of the fifteen (15) day period that the Major Holders and Major Investors Groups had to reply, against the payment of the price, or, if the Offer states other times for delivery and/or other payment terms, in accordance with the conditions of the Offer.
(d) If the Acceptances, in the aggregate, are in respect of less than the full number of Offered Shares, then the Accepting Offerees shall not be entitled to acquire the Offered Shares, and the Offeror, at the expiration of the aforementioned fifteen (15) day period, shall be entitled to transfer all of the Offered Shares to the proposed transferee(s) identified in the Offer, provided, however, that in no event shall the Offeror transfer any of the Offered Shares to any transferee other than such Major Holders, members of the Major Investors’ Groups or such proposed transferee(s) or transfer the same on terms more favorable to the buyer(s) than those stated in the Offer, and provided further that any of the Offered Shares not transferred within ninety (90) days after the expiration of such fifteen (15) day period, shall again be subject to the provisions of this Article VII.
(e) This Article VII shall also apply to the sale of shares by a receiver, liquidator, trustee in bankruptcy, administrator of an estate, executor of a will, etc.
15
(f) For this Article VII each Major Holder’s and Major Investors Group’s “Pro Rata Share” means the portion of shares owned by such Major Holder or Major Investors Group (in the aggregate) of all shares owned by the Offeror and all Major Holders.
(ii) Exemptions and Qualification:

Such notice shall set forth: (i) the name of the Offeror; (ii) the proposed amount and form of consideration and terms and conditions of payment offered by the Offeror; and (iii) the date on which such purchase shall be consummated and closed. If any of the Minority stockholders fail to execute and/or deliver the appropriate documentation required to effect the said transaction, it is hereby agreed that all such stockholders (A) shall be deemed to have given an irrevocable power of attorney to such person as shall be designated by the Company’s Board of Directors to accept such offer and (B) at the closing of such Purchase Offer, will transfer all their shares to the Offeror. In the event that a stockholder fails to surrender its stock certificate(s) in connection with the consummation of such offer, such certificate shall be deemed canceled and the Company shall be authorized to issue a new certificate in the name of the Offeror and the Board of Directors shall be authorized to establish an escrow account into which the consideration for such canceled shares shall be deposited and to appoint a trustee to administer such account. Without derogating from the foregoing, in the event that a Minority stockholder refuses to comply with this Section VIII(A)(ii), the Forced Sale Majority may proceed to protect and enforce the rights of the Forced Sale Majority contained in this Section VIII(A)(ii).

|
|
|
1.2.
|
For as long as the Warrants are valid, and for as long as the Exercise Period, as defined in clause 2.1 below, has not expired, the Company shall keep out of its registered capital a sufficient quantity of shares enabling the full exercise of the Warrants into Series C Preferred Share of the Company as provided in this Agreement, or shall act to increase the registered capital as required for this purpose.

|
5.
|
Payment of Taxes
|

From the date of the signing of this Agreement and for as long as not all the Warrants have been exercised, but in any event not later than at the end of the Exercise Period, the following provisions shall apply to the Warrants:
|
|
If the Company distributes a dividend, the following provisions shall apply:
|
|
|
6.1.
|
Immediately after the determining day for the distribution of a cash dividend, a calculation shall be made of the ratio between the rate of the Company’s share at the end of said determining day, and the rate of the Company’s share as set by the Stock Exchange, adjusted for the distribution of the dividend.
|
|
|
6.2.
|
The Exercise Price of the Warrants shall be adjusted according to the result obtained from the division of the Exercise Price of the Warrants as in effect at that time by the ratio determined as provided in clause 6.1 above.
|
|
|
6.3.
|
If the Company distributes to its shareholders bonus shares, then immediately after the determining date for the distribution of the bonus shares (in this clause: the “Determining Date”), the number of Exercise Shares shall be increased by the addition of the number of shares to which The Holder would have been entitled, as bonus shares, had it exercised the (still unexercised) Warrants immediately prior to the Determining Date. The Exercise Price of each Warrant shall not change as a result of the increase in the number of Exercise Shares to which The Holder is entitled.
|
|
7.
|
Miscellaneous

|
|
7.2.
|
The Company’s waiver of or failure to insist on the fulfillment of any provision by The Holder in one instance, shall not constitute a waiver or obligate it in any manner in another instance.
|
|
|
7.3.
|
No amendment to the provisions of this Agreement or waiver of a provision of this Agreement shall be valid without the Company’s written consent.
|
|
|

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT
This Indemnification Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of August 3, 2009, by and between WhiteSmoke, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Xxxx Xxxxxxxx (the “Indemnitee”).
RECITALS
The Company and Indemnitee recognize the increasing difficulty in obtaining liability insurance for directors, officers and key employees, the significant increases in the cost of such insurance and the general reductions in the coverage of such insurance. The Company and Indemnitee further recognize the substantial increase in corporate litigation in general, subjecting directors, officers and key employees to expensive litigation risks at the same time as the availability and coverage of liability insurance has been severely limited. Indemnitee does not regard the current protection available as adequate under the present circumstances, and Indemnitee and agents of the Company may not be willing to continue to serve as agents of the Company without additional protection. The Company desires to attract and retain the services of highly qualified individuals, such as Indemnitee, and to indemnify its directors, officers and key employees so as to provide them with the maximum protection permitted by law.
AGREEMENT
In consideration of the mutual promises made in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company and Indemnitee hereby agree as follows:
1 Indemnification.
(a) Third Party Proceedings. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee if Indemnitee is or was a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or any subsidiary of the Company, by reason of any action or inaction on the part of Indemnitee while an officer or director or by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement (if such settlement is approved in advance by the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) actually incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.
Execution Copy
(b) Proceedings By or in the Right of the Company. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee if Indemnitee was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or proceeding by or in the right of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or any subsidiary of the Company, by reason of any action or inaction on the part of Indemnitee while an officer or director or by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, amounts paid in settlement (if such settlement is approved in advance by the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), in each case to the extent actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been finally adjudicated by court order or judgment to be liable to the Company in the performance of Indemnitee’s duty to the Company and its stockholders unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or proceeding is or was pending shall determine upon application that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such court shall deem proper.
(c) Mandatory Payment of Expenses. To the extent that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Section 1(a) or Section 1(b) or the defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually incurred by Indemnitee in connection therewith.
2. No Employment Rights. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to create in Indemnitee any right to continued employment.
3. Expenses; Indemnification Procedure.
(a) Advancement of Expenses. The Company shall advance all expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of any civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding referred to in Section 1(a) or Section 1(b) hereof (including amounts actually paid in settlement of any such action, suit or proceeding). Indemnitee hereby undertakes to repay such amounts advanced only if, and to the extent that, it shall ultimately be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized hereby.
(b) Notice/Cooperation by Indemnitee. Indemnitee shall, as a condition precedent to his or her right to be indemnified under this Agreement, give the Company notice in writing as soon as practicable of any claim made against Indemnitee for which indemnification will or could be sought under this Agreement. Notice to the Company shall be directed to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and shall be given in accordance with the provisions of Section 12(d) below. In addition, Indemnitee shall give the Company such information and cooperation as it may reasonably require and as shall be within Indemnitee’s power.
2
Execution Copy
(c) Procedure. Any indemnification and advances provided for in Section 1 and this Section 3 shall be made no later than thirty (30) days after receipt of the written request of Indemnitee. If a claim under this Agreement, under any statute, or under any provision of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws providing for indemnification, is not paid in full by the Company within thirty (30) days after a written request for payment thereof has first been received by the Company, Indemnitee may, but need not, at any time thereafter bring an action against the Company to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, subject to Section 11 of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall also be entitled to be paid for the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of bringing such action. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce claim for expenses incurred in connection with any action, suit or proceeding in advance of its final disposition) that Indemnitee has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible under applicable law for the Company to indemnify Indemnitee for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Company and Indemnitee shall be entitled to receive interim payments of expenses pursuant to Section 3(a) unless and until such defense may be finally adjudicated by court order or judgment from which no further right of appeal exists. It is the parties’ intention that if the Company contests Indemnitee’s right to indemnification, the question of Indemnitee’s right to indemnification shall be for the court to decide, and neither the failure of the Company (including its Board of Directors, any committee or subgroup of the Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination that indemnification of Indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct required by applicable law, nor an actual determination by the Company (including its Board of Directors, any committee or subgroup of the Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that Indemnitee has or has not met the applicable standard of conduct.
(d) Notice to Insurers. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof, the Company has director and officer liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies.
(e) Selection of Counsel. In the event the Company shall be obligated under Section 3(a) hereof to pay the expenses of any proceeding against Indemnitee, the Company, if appropriate, shall be entitled to assume the defense of such proceeding, with counsel approved by Indemnitee, upon the delivery to Indemnitee of written notice of its election so to do. After delivery of such notice, approval of such counsel by Indemnitee and the retention of such counsel by the Company, the Company will not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any fees of counsel subsequently incurred by Indemnitee with respect to the same proceeding, provided that (i) Indemnitee shall have the right to employ counsel in any such proceeding at Indemnitee’s expense; and (ii) if (A) the employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been previously authorized by the Company, (B) Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and Indemnitee in the conduct of any such defense or (C) the Company shall not, in fact, have employed counsel to assume the defense of such proceeding, then the fees and expenses of Indemnitee’s counsel shall be at the expense of the Company.

Execution Copy
4. Additional Indemnification Rights; Non-exclusivity.
(a) Scope. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify the Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law, notwithstanding that such indemnification is not specifically authorized by the other provisions of this Agreement, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, the Company’s Bylaws or by statute. In the event of any change, after the date of this Agreement, in any applicable law, statute, or rule which expands the right of a Delaware corporation to indemnify a member of its board of directors or an officer, such changes shall be deemed to be within the purview of Indemnitee’s rights and the Company’s obligations under this Agreement. In the event of any change in any applicable law, statute or rule which narrows the right of a Delaware corporation to indemnify a member of its board of directors or an officer, such changes, to the extent not otherwise required by such law, statute or rule to be applied to this Agreement shall have no effect on this Agreement or the parties’ rights and obligations hereunder.
(b) Non-exclusivity. The indemnification provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any rights to which Indemnitee may be entitled under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, its Bylaws, any agreement, any vote of stockholders or disinterested members of the Company’s Board of Directors, the Delaware General Corporation Law, or otherwise, both as to action in Indemnitee’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. The indemnification provided under this Agreement shall continue as to Indemnitee for any action taken or not taken while serving in an indemnified capacity even though he or she may have ceased to serve in any such capacity at the time of any action, suit or other covered proceeding.
5. Partial Indemnification. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of the expenses, judgments, fines or penalties actually or reasonably incurred in the investigation, defense, appeal or settlement of any civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding, but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion of such expenses, judgments, fines or penalties to which Indemnitee is entitled.
6. Indemnification of Related Parties. To the extent that Indemnitee is serving on the Board at the direction of any stockholder of the Company who, pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation or contractual arrangement, shall have the right to elect or appoint Indemnitee to the Board (an “Appointing Stockholder”), the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless such Appointing Stockholder from any threatened, pending or completed action or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising solely by reason of the fact that Appointing Stockholder has the ability to appoint or elect Indemnitee to the Board, provided however, that (i) any such indemnification shall be subject to the same limitations as set forth in Section 1 or otherwise herein; and (ii) no such indemnification shall be available to any Appointing Stockholder in the event that Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification in the same or any related action or proceeding. The terms of this Agreement as they relate to procedures for indemnification of Indemnitee shall apply to any such indemnification of Appointing Stockholder.
4
Execution Copy
7. Mutual Acknowledgment. Both the Company and Indemnitee acknowledge that in certain instances, Federal law or public policy may override applicable state law and prohibit the Company from indemnifying its directors and officers under this Agreement or otherwise. For example, the Company and Indemnitee acknowledge that the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has taken the position that indemnification is not permissible for liabilities arising under certain federal securities laws, and federal legislation prohibits indemnification for certain ERISA violations. Indemnitee understands and acknowledges that the Company has undertaken or may be required in the future to undertake with the SEC to submit the question of indemnification to a court in certain circumstances for a determination of the Company’s right under public policy to indemnify Indemnitee.
8. Officer and Director Liability Insurance. The Company shall, from time to time, make the good faith determination whether or not it is practicable for the Company to obtain and maintain a policy or policies of insurance with reputable insurance companies providing the officers and directors of the Company with coverage for losses from wrongful acts, or to ensure the Company’s performance of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement. Among other considerations, the Company will weigh the costs of obtaining such insurance coverage against the protection afforded by such coverage. In all policies of director and officer liability insurance, Indemnitee shall be named as an insured in such a manner as to provide Indemnitee the same rights and benefits as are accorded to the most favorably insured of the Company’s directors, if Indemnitee is a director; or of the Company’s officers, if Indemnitee is not a director of the Company but is an officer; or of the Company’s key employees, if Indemnitee is not an officer or director but is a key employee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to obtain or maintain such insurance if the Company determines in good faith that such insurance is not reasonably available, if the premium costs for such insurance are disproportionate to the amount of coverage provided, if the coverage provided by such insurance is limited by exclusions so as to provide an insufficient benefit, or if Indemnitee is covered by similar insurance maintained by a parent or subsidiary of the Company.
9. Severability. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to require or shall be construed as requiring the Company to do or fail to do any act in violation of applicable law. The Company’s inability, pursuant to court order, to perform its obligations under this Agreement shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement shall be severable as provided in this Section 8. If this Agreement or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Agreement that shall not have been invalidated, and the balance of this Agreement not so invalidated shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
10. Exceptions. Any other provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be obligated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement:
5
Execution Copy
(a) Claims Initiated by Indemnitee. To indemnify or advance expenses to Indemnitee with respect to proceedings or claims initiated or brought voluntarily by Indemnitee and not by way of defense, except with respect to proceedings brought to establish or enforce a right to indemnification under this Agreement or any other statute or law or otherwise as required under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, but such indemnification or advancement of expenses may be provided by the Company in specific cases if the Board of Directors finds it to be appropriate;
(b) Lack of Good Faith. To indemnify Indemnitee for any expenses incurred by Indemnitee with respect to any proceeding instituted by Indemnitee to enforce or interpret this Agreement, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that each of the material assertions made by Indemnitee in such proceeding was not made in good faith or was frivolous;
(c) Insured Claims. To indemnify Indemnitee for expenses or liabilities of any type whatsoever (including, but not limited to, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties, and amounts paid in settlement) to the extent such expenses or liabilities have been paid directly to Indemnitee by an insurance carrier under a policy of officers’ and directors’ liability insurance maintained by the Company; or
(d) Claims under Section 16(b). To indemnify Indemnitee for expenses or the payment of profits arising from the purchase and sale by Indemnitee of securities in violation of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any similar successor statute.
11. Construction of Certain Phrases.
(a) For purposes of this Agreement, references to the “Company” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that if Indemnitee is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, Indemnitee shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Agreement with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as Indemnitee would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.
(b) For purposes of this Agreement, references to “other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the Company” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants, or beneficiaries; and if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Company” as referred to in this Agreement.

Execution Copy
12. Attorneys Fees. In the event that any action is instituted by Indemnitee under this Agreement to enforce or interpret any of the terms hereof, Indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid all court costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by Indemnitee with respect to such action, unless as a part of such action, the court of competent jurisdiction determines that each of the material assertions made by Indemnitee as a basis for such action were not made in good faith or were frivolous.

Arabic Mophological Analyzer (by Xxxxx Xxxxxxx - PHP)
This tool used for analyzing the Arabic text which means to convert it to its basic components (verb, noun, prefix, postfix, etc.) in order to have more general options and accurate statistics for all words and sentences in the translation process both versions connected to a SQL database that contain all necessary lists for analyzing lists of nouns, verbs, prepositions, etc.
- web_morpho.php - web version, run as web application
- ar_morphological_vl_3.php - command line version, run as program that receives text file as input
Grammar Tools(by Xxxxx Xxxxxxx - PHP)
- build_arabic_conjunctions.php - Builds all inflections for a verb in Arabic
- conjugator.php - Web version based on “build_arabic_conjunctions.php” gets Arabic radix as input
