owned by the Shareholders.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

written consent of the shareholders, the following persons shall be elected to the Board:
(a) One individual designated by the holders of a majority of the Series A Common Stock

voted, all Shares owned by such Shareholder, or over which such Shareholder has voting control,
from time to time and at all times, in whatever manner as shall be necessary to ensure that:
(a) no director elected pursuant to Sections 1.2 or 1.4 of this Agreement may be

director or occupy such Board seat pursuant to Section 1.2 is no longer so entitled to

this Agreement, and the Company agrees at the request of any party entitled to designate directors
to call a special meeting of Shareholders for the purpose of electing directors.
1.6 No Liability for Election of Recommended Directors. No Shareholder, nor any
Affiliate of any Shareholder, shall have any liability as a result of designating a person for
election as a director for any act or omission by such designated person in his or her capacity as
a director of the Company, nor shall any Shareholder have any liability as a result of voting for
any such designee in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

necessary, including without limitation, the voting of Shares to ensure that (a) the Board shall
meet at least quarterly unless otherwise agreed by a vote of the majority of the Board and (b) the

the Board.

Investor:

each fiscal year of the Company, (i) a balance sheet as of the end of such year, (ii)
statements of income and of cash flows for such year, and (iii) a statement of shareholders’
equity as of the end of such year;
(b) as soon as practicable, but in any event within forty-five (45) days after the end

statements of income and of cash flows for such fiscal quarter, and an unaudited balance
sheet and a statement of shareholders’ equity as of the end of such fiscal quarter, all

statements may (i) be subject to normal year-end audit adjustments and (ii) not
contain all notes thereto that may be required in accordance with GAAP);
(c) as soon as practicable, but in any event within forty-five (45) days after the end
of each of the first three (3) quarters of each fiscal year of the Company, a statement

convertible into or exercisable for shares of capital stock outstanding at the end of the
period, the Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of any outstanding securities
convertible or exercisable for Common Stock and the exchange ratio or exercise price
applicable thereto, and the number of shares of issued stock options and stock options not
yet issued but reserved for issuance, if any, all in sufficient detail as to permit the
Major Investors to calculate their respective percentage equity ownership in the Company,
and certified by the chief financial officer or chief executive officer of the Company as
being true, complete and correct; and
(d) as soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days of the end of each
month, an unaudited income statement and statement of cash flows for such month, and an
unaudited balance sheet and statement of shareholders’ equity as of the end of such month,
all prepared in accordance with GAAP (except that such financial statements may (i) be
subject to normal year-end audit adjustments and (ii) not contain all notes thereto that may
be required in accordance with GAAP).
If, for any period, the Company has any subsidiary whose accounts are consolidated with those of
the Company, then in respect of such period the financial statements delivered pursuant to the
foregoing sections shall be the consolidated and consolidating financial statements of the Company
and all such consolidated subsidiaries.
Notwithstanding anything else in this Section 2.1 to the contrary, the Company may cease providing
the information set forth in this Section 2.1 during the period starting with the date sixty (60)
days before the Company’s good-faith estimate of the date of filing of a registration statement if
it reasonably concludes it must do so to comply with the SEC rules applicable to such registration
statement and related offering; provided that the Company’s covenants under this Section 2.1 shall
be reinstated at such time as the Company is no longer actively employing its commercially
reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; provided, further,
that the Company will cease providing the information set forth in this Section 2.1 upon the
request of TomoTherapy.
2.2 Inspection. The Company shall permit each Major Investor, at such Major
Investor’s expense, to visit and inspect the Company’s properties and discuss the Company’s affairs
with its officers, during normal business hours of the Company as may be reasonably requested by
the Major Investor; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated pursuant to this
Section 2.2 to provide access to any information that it reasonably and in good faith considers to
be a trade secret or confidential information (unless covered by an enforceable confidentiality
agreement, in form acceptable to the Company) or the disclosure of which would adversely affect the
attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel.
-4-
2.3 Observation Rights. Upon written request of a Major Investor, a representative
(who is not a Person that the Board or TomoTherapy determines is, or is an Affiliate of, a
competitor of the Company or of TomoTherapy) designated by a Major Investor may attend all meetings
of the Board in a nonvoting observer capacity. Upon written request, the Company shall give such
representative copies of all notices, minutes, consents and other materials that it provides to its
directors at the same time and in the same manner as provided to such directors; provided, however,
that such representative shall agree to hold in confidence and trust and to act in a fiduciary
manner with respect to all information so provided; provided, further, that the Company reserves
the right to withhold any information and to exclude such representative from any meeting or
portion thereof if access to such information or attendance at such meeting could adversely affect
the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel; result in disclosure of trade
secrets; is deemed by the Board to include competitive or sensitive customer-related matters of the
Company or of TomoTherapy; or result in a conflict of interests.
2.4 Termination of Information and Observation Rights. The covenants set forth in
Sections 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3 shall terminate and be of no further force or effect
when the Company first becomes subject to the periodic reporting requirements of Section 12(g) or
15(d) of the Exchange Act, whichever event occurs first.
2.5 Confidentiality. Each Shareholder agrees that such Shareholder will keep
confidential and will not disclose, divulge or use for any purpose (other than to monitor its
investment in the Company) any confidential information obtained from the Company pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement (including notice of the Company’s intention to file a registration
statement), unless such confidential information (a) is known or becomes known to the public in
general (other than as a result of a breach of this Section 2.5 by such Shareholder), (b) is or has
been independently developed or conceived by the Shareholder without use of the Company’s
confidential information, or (c) is or has been made known or disclosed to the Shareholder by a
third party without a breach of any obligation of confidentiality such third party may have to the
Company, provided, however, that a Shareholder may disclose confidential information (i) to its
attorneys, accountants, consultants and other professionals to the extent necessary to obtain their
services in connection with monitoring its investment in the Company; (ii) to any existing
Affiliate, partner, member, shareholder or wholly owned subsidiary of such Shareholder in the
ordinary course of business, provided that such Shareholder informs such Person that such
information is confidential and directs such Person to maintain the confidentiality of such
information; or (iii) as may otherwise be required by law in the reasonable written opinion of the
Shareholder’s legal counsel, provided that the Shareholder promptly notifies the Company of such
disclosure and takes reasonable steps to minimize the extent of any such required disclosure.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Shareholder agrees that it is restricted from disclosing any
such confidential information to any Person that is a competitor of the Company or of TomoTherapy.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Board shall determine whether such a Person is such a competitor
3. Rights to Future Stock Issuances.
3.1 Right of First Offer. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section
3.1 and applicable securities laws, if the Company proposes to offer or sell any New
Securities, the
-5-
Company shall first offer such New Securities to each Major Investor in accordance with the
following:
(a) The Company shall give notice (the “Offer Notice”) to each Major Investor, stating
(i) its bona fide intention to offer such New Securities, (ii) the number of such New
Securities to be offered, and (iii) the price and terms, if any, upon which it proposes to
offer such New Securities.
(b) By notification to the Company within twenty (20) days after the Offer Notice is
given, each Major Investor may elect to purchase or otherwise acquire, at the price and on
the terms specified in the Offer Notice, up to that portion of such New Securities which
equals the proportion that the Common Stock issued and held, or issuable (directly or
indirectly) upon conversion and/or exercise, as applicable, of any Derivative Securities
then held, by such Major Investor bears to the total Common Stock of the Company then
outstanding (assuming full conversion and/or exercise, as applicable, of all Derivative
Securities). At the expiration of such twenty (20) day period, the Company shall promptly
notify each Major Investor that elects to purchase or acquire all the shares available to it
(each, a “Fully Exercising Investor”) of any other Major Investor’s failure to do likewise.
During the ten (10) day period commencing after the Company has given such notice, each
Fully Exercising Investor may, by giving notice to the Company, elect to purchase or
acquire, in addition to the number of shares specified above, up to that portion of the New
Securities for which Major Investors were entitled to subscribe but that were not subscribed
for by the Major Investors which is equal to the proportion that the Common Stock issued and
held, or issuable (directly or indirectly) upon conversion and/or exercise, as applicable,
of any other Derivative Securities then held, by such Fully Exercising Investor bears to the
Common Stock issued and held, or issuable (directly or indirectly) upon conversion and/or
exercise, as applicable, of any other Derivative Securities then held, by all Fully
Exercising Investors who wish to purchase such unsubscribed shares. The closing of any sale
pursuant to this Section 3.1(b) shall occur on a date designated by the Company that is
within the later of ninety (90) days of the date that the Offer Notice is given and the date
of initial sale of New Securities pursuant to Section 3.1(c).
(c) If all New Securities referred to in the Offer Notice are not elected to be
purchased or acquired as provided in Section 3.1(b), the Company may, during the ninety (90)
day period following the expiration of the periods provided in Section 3.1(b), offer and
sell the remaining unsubscribed portion of such New Securities 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 Offer Notice. If the Company does not enter into an agreement for the sale of the
New Securities within such period, or if such agreement is not consummated within thirty
(30) days of the execution thereof, the right provided hereunder shall be deemed to be
revived and such New Securities shall not be offered unless first re-offered to the Major
Investors in accordance with this Section 3.1.
(d) The right of first offer in this Section 3.1 shall not be applicable to (i)
Exempted Securities; (ii) shares of Common Stock issued in the IPO; and (iii) the
-6-
issuance of 2nd Tranche Shares or 3rd Tranche Shares (as those
terms are defined in the Purchase Agreement).
(e) Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, in complying with the
provisions of this Section 3.1, the Company may elect to give notice to the Major Investors
within thirty (30) days after the issuance of New Securities. Such notice shall describe
the type, price, and terms of the New Securities. Each Major Investor shall have twenty
(20) days from the date notice is given to elect to purchase up to the number of New
Securities that would, if purchased by such Major Investor, maintain such Major Investor’s
percentage-ownership position, calculated as set forth in Section 3.1(b) before giving
effect to the issuance of such New Securities. The closing of such sale shall occur on a
date designated by the Company that is within sixty (60) days of the date notice is given to
the Major Investors.
3.2 Termination. The covenants set forth in Section 3.1 shall terminate and be of no
further force or effect (i) immediately before the consummation of the IPO or (ii) when the Company
first becomes subject to the periodic reporting requirements of Section 12(g) or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act, whichever event occurs first.
4. Agreement Among the Company and the Shareholders Regarding Transfers of Shares.
4.1 Rights of Refusal.
(a) Grant. Subject to the terms of this Section 4, each Shareholder hereby
unconditionally and irrevocably grants to TomoTherapy a Right of First Refusal to purchase
all or any portion of the Shares that are subject to a Proposed Transfer, at the same price
and on the same terms and conditions as those offered to the Prospective Transferee, or
pursuant to this Agreement in the absence of any such ascertainable price, terms and
conditions.
(b) Notice. Any Shareholder proposing to make a Proposed Transfer must deliver
a Proposed Transfer Notice to TomoTherapy and the Company not later than ninety (90) days
prior to the consummation of such Proposed Transfer. Such Proposed Transfer Notice shall
contain the material terms and conditions (including price and form of consideration) of the
Proposed Transfer and the identity of the Prospective Transferee. To exercise its Right of
First Refusal under this Section 4, TomoTherapy must deliver an Exercise Notice to the
selling Shareholder within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Proposed Transfer Notice.
(c) Grant of Secondary Refusal Right to the Company. Subject to the terms of
Section 5 below, each Shareholder hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to the
Company a Secondary Refusal Right to purchase all or any portion of the Shares not purchased
by TomoTherapy pursuant to the Right of First Refusal, as provided in this Section 4.1(c).
If TomoTherapy does not intend to exercise its Right of First Refusal with respect to all
Shares subject to a Proposed Transfer, TomoTherapy must deliver a Non-exercise Notice to the
Company and the selling Shareholder to that effect no later than fifteen (15) days after the
selling Shareholder delivers the Proposed Transfer Notice
-7-
pursuant to Section 4.1(b). To exercise its Secondary Refusal Right, the Company must
deliver an Exercise Notice to the selling Shareholder and TomoTherapy within ten (10) days
after TomoTherapy’s deadline for its delivery of the Non-exercise Notice as provided in the
preceding sentence.
(d) Grant of Tertiary Refusal Rights to the Shareholders. Subject to the terms
of Section 5 below, each Shareholder hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to each
other Shareholder (other than TomoTherapy) a Tertiary Refusal Right to purchase all or any
portion of the Shares not purchased by TomoTherapy pursuant to its exercise of the Right of
First Refusal or by the Company pursuant to its exercise of the Secondary Refusal Right, as
provided in this Section 4.1(d). If the Company does not intend to exercise its Secondary
Refusal Right with respect to all Shares subject to a Proposed Transfer that were not
purchased by TomoTherapy pursuant to the Right of First Refusal, the Company must deliver a
Non-exercise Notice to the selling Shareholder and to each other Shareholder to that effect,
accompanied by a copy of the Proposed Transfer Notice, no later than thirty (30) days after
the selling Shareholder delivers the Proposed Transfer Notice pursuant to Section 4.1(b).
To exercise its Tertiary Refusal Right, a Shareholder (other than TomoTherapy) must deliver
an Exercise Notice to the selling Shareholder and the Company within forty (40) days after
the Company’s deadline for its delivery of the Non-exercise Notice as provided in the
preceding sentence.
(e) Undersubscription of Shares. If options to purchase under this Section
4 have been exercised by TomoTherapy, the Company and the Shareholders (other than
TomoTherapy) with respect to some but not all of the Shares subject to a Proposed Transfer
by the end of the 40-day period specified in the last sentence of Section 4.1(d) (the
“Shareholder Notice Period”), then the Company shall, immediately after the expiration of
the Shareholder Notice Period, send written notice (the “Company Undersubscription Notice”)
to those Shareholders who fully exercised their Tertiary Refusal Right within the
Shareholder Notice Period (the “Exercising Shareholders”). Each Exercising Shareholder
shall, subject to the provisions of this Section 4.1(e), have an additional option to
purchase all or any part of the balance of any such remaining unsubscribed Shares on the
terms and conditions set forth in the Proposed Transfer Notice. To exercise such option, an
Exercising Shareholder must deliver an Undersubscription Notice to the selling Shareholder
and the Company within ten (10) days after the expiration of the Shareholder Notice Period.
In the event there are two or more such Exercising Shareholders that choose to exercise the
last-mentioned option for a total number of remaining shares in excess of the number
available, the remaining Shares available for purchase under this Section 4.1(e) shall be
allocated to such Exercising Shareholders pro rata based on the number of Shares such
Exercising Shareholders have elected to purchase pursuant to the Tertiary Refusal Right
(without giving effect to any Shares that any such Exercising Shareholder has elected to
purchase pursuant to the Company Undersubscription Notice). If the options to purchase the
remaining Shares are exercised in full by the Exercising Shareholders, the Company shall
immediately notify all of the Exercising Shareholders and the selling Shareholder of that
fact.
-8-
(f) Forfeiture of Rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the total number
of Shares that TomoTherapy, the Company and the Shareholders (other than TomoTherapy) have
agreed to purchase pursuant to the exercise of the Right of First Refusal, the Secondary
Refusal Right and the Tertiary Refusal Right, respectively, is less than the total number of
Shares subject to the Proposed Transfer, then TomoTherapy, the Company and the Shareholders
(other than TomoTherapy) shall be deemed to have forfeited any right to purchase such
Shares, and the selling Shareholder shall be free to sell all, but not less than all, of
such Shares to the Prospective Transferee on terms and conditions substantially similar to
(and in no event more favorable to the Proposed Transferee than) the terms and conditions
set forth in the Proposed Transfer Notice, it being understood and agreed that (i) any such
sale or transfer shall be subject to the other terms and restrictions of this Agreement,
including without limitation the terms and restrictions set forth in this Section 4; (ii)
any future Proposed Transfer shall remain subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, including this Section 4; and (iii) such sale shall be consummated within ninety
(90) days after receipt of the Proposed Transfer Notice by the Company and, if such sale is
not consummated within such ninety (90) day period, such sale shall again become subject to
the Right of First Refusal, the Secondary Refusal Right and the Tertiary Refusal Right on
the terms set forth herein.
(g) Consideration; Closing. If the consideration proposed to be paid for the
Shares subject to a Proposed Transfer is in property, services or other non-cash
consideration, TomoTherapy, the Company or such Shareholder may pay the cash value
equivalent thereof, as determined in good faith by TomoTherapy and as set forth in its
Exercise Notice. If the Proposed Transfer is involuntary or by operation of law, the
purchase price to be paid by TomoTherapy, the Company and the purchasing Shareholders
hereunder shall be equal to appraised value for the Shares being transferred, as determined
by an appraiser selected those purchasing a majority of the Shares being purchased. The
closing of the purchase by TomoTherapy, the Company and/or the Shareholders of Shares
subject to a Proposed Transfer pursuant to this Section 4 shall take place, and all payments
from TomoTherapy, the Company and the Shareholders shall have been delivered to the selling
Shareholder, by the later of (i) the date specified in the Proposed Transfer Notice as the
intended date of the Proposed Transfer and (ii) ninety (90) days after delivery of the
Proposed Transfer Notice.
(h) Prohibited Transferees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Shareholder
shall transfer any Shares to any Person that, in the determination of the Board or
TomoTherapy, directly or indirectly competes with the Company or TomoTherapy.
4.2 Right of Co-Sale.
(a) Exercise of Right. If any Shares subject to a Proposed Transfer are not
purchased pursuant to Section 4.1 above and thereafter is to be sold to a
Prospective Transferee, each respective Shareholder may elect to exercise its Right of
Co-Sale and participate on a pro rata basis in the Proposed Transfer as set forth in Section
4.2(b) below and otherwise on the same terms and conditions specified in the Proposed
Transfer Notice. Each Shareholder who desires to exercise its Right of Co-Sale must give
the selling Shareholder written notice to that effect within fifteen (15) days after the
deadline
-9-
for delivery of the Secondary Notice described above, and upon giving such notice such
Shareholder shall be deemed to have effectively exercised the Right of Co-Sale.
(b) Shares Includable. Each Shareholder who timely exercises such
Shareholder’s Right of Co-Sale by delivering the written notice provided for above in
Section 4.2(a) may include in the Proposed Transfer all or any part of such
Shareholder’s Common Stock equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the aggregate
number of Shares subject to the Proposed Transfer (excluding Shares purchased by the Company
or the Shareholders pursuant to the Right of First Refusal, Secondary Refusal Right or
Tertiary Refusal Right) by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Shares
owned by such Shareholder immediately before consummation of the Proposed Transfer
(including any shares that such Shareholder has agreed to purchase pursuant to the Tertiary
Refusal Right) and the denominator of which is the total number of Shares of owned, in the
aggregate, by all Shareholders immediately prior to the consummation of the Proposed
Transfer (including any shares that all Shareholders have collectively agreed to purchase
pursuant to the Tertiary Refusal Right).
(c) Delivery of Certificates. Each Shareholder shall effect its participation
in the Proposed Transfer by delivering to the transferring Shareholder, no later than
fifteen (15) days after such Shareholder’s exercise of the Right of Co-Sale, one or more
stock certificates, properly endorsed for transfer to the Prospective Transferee,
representing the number of Shares that such Shareholder elects to include in the Proposed
Transfer.
(d) Purchase Agreement. The parties hereby agree that the terms and conditions
of any sale pursuant to this Section 4.2 will be memorialized in, and governed by, a written
purchase and sale agreement with customary terms and provisions for such a transaction and
the parties further covenant and agree to enter into such an agreement as a condition
precedent to any sale or other transfer pursuant to this Section 4.2.
(e) Deliveries. Each stock certificate a Shareholder delivers to the selling
Shareholder pursuant to Section 4.2(c) above will be transferred to the Prospective
Transferee against payment therefor in consummation of the sale of the Shares pursuant to
the terms and conditions specified in the Proposed Transfer Notice and the purchase and sale
agreement, and the selling Shareholder shall concurrently therewith remit or direct payment
to each Shareholder the portion of the sale proceeds to which such Shareholder is entitled
by reason of its participation in such sale. If any Prospective Transferee refuses to
purchase securities subject to the Right of Co-Sale from any Shareholder exercising its
Right of Co-Sale hereunder, no Shareholder may sell any Shares to such Prospective
Transferee or Transferees unless and until, simultaneously with such sale, such Shareholder
purchases all securities subject to the Right of Co-Sale from such Shareholder on the same
terms and conditions (including the proposed purchase price) as set forth in the Proposed
Transfer Notice.
(f) Additional Compliance. If any Proposed Transfer is not consummated within
ninety (90) days after receipt of the Proposed Transfer Notice by the Company, the
Shareholders proposing the Proposed Transfer may not sell any Shares unless they first
comply in full with each provision of this Section 4. The exercise or election not to
-10-
exercise any right by any Shareholder hereunder shall not adversely affect its right to
participate in any other sales of Shares subject to this Section 4.2.
4.3 Effect of Failure to Comply.
(a) Transfer Void; Equitable Relief. Any Proposed Transfer not made in
compliance with the requirements of this Agreement shall be null and void ab initio, shall
not be recorded on the books of the Company or its transfer agent and shall not be
recognized by the Company. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that any breach of
this Agreement would result in substantial harm to the other parties hereto for which
monetary damages alone could not adequately compensate. Therefore, the parties hereto
unconditionally and irrevocably agree that any non-breaching party hereto shall be entitled
to seek protective orders, injunctive relief and other remedies available at law or in
equity (including, without limitation, seeking specific performance or the rescission of
purchases, sales and other transfers of Shares not made in strict compliance with this
Agreement).
(b) Violation of Refusal Rights. If any Shareholder becomes obligated to sell
any Shares to TomoTherapy, the Company or any Shareholder under this Agreement and fails to
deliver such Shares in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, TomoTherapy, the Company
and/or such Shareholders may, at its option, in addition to all other remedies it may have,
send to such Shareholder the purchase price for such Shares as is herein specified and
transfer to the name of TomoTherapy, the Company or such Shareholder (or request that the
Company effect such transfer in the name of TomoTherapy or such Shareholder) on the
Company’s books the certificate or certificates representing the Shares to be sold.
5. Call Right.
5.1 Call Right. At any time after the second anniversary of the Initial Closing (as
defined in the Purchase Agreement), TomoTherapy shall have the continuing option (the “Call Right”)
to purchase all of the Series A Common Stock and twenty-three and sixteen hundredths percent (23
16/100%) of the Series B Common Stock (collectively, the “Call Shares”) in
accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 5.
5.2 Notice. To exercise the Call Right, TomoTherapy shall provide to each Series A
Holder and each Series B Holder, written notice of its election to exercise the Call Right (the
“Call Notice”), which Call Notice shall set forth the Purchase Price (as defined below) to be paid
to each such Series A Holder and Series B Holder, as calculated in accordance with Section 5.3, and
the closing date of the purchase pursuant to Section 5.4.
5.3 Purchase Price. The total purchase price for Series A Common Stock Call Shares
(the “Series A Purchase Price”) and Series B Common Stock Call Shares (the “Series B Purchase
Price”), purchased pursuant to this Section 5 shall be an amount equal to the following formulas
for each separate purchase of such Series A Common Stock or Series B Common, as the case may be:
-11-
Series A Purchase Price = $1.00 * A * (1 + I)^(M/12) | ||||
Series B Purchase Price = ($2.46 * B * (1.5^(M/12))) – ($2.46 * B) | ||||
A = | The number of shares of Series A Common Stock to be purchased pursuant to the Call Right. | |||
B = | The number of shares of Series B Common Stock to be purchased pursuant to the Call Right. | |||
I = | If the total number of shares of Series A Common Stock that the selling Series A Holder has purchased or has a then-current right to purchase is greater than or equal to 2,000,000, then 0.2, but if less than 2,000,000, then 0. | |||
M = | The number of full months between the relevant share purchase date and (i) if the holder failed to meet the holder’s obligation pursuant to its initial commitment to purchase stock in either the 2nd Tranche Sale or 3rd Tranche Sale (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the date that the holder first failed to make such purchase, or (ii) if the holder fulfilled all obligations of the Transaction Agreements, the date of the sale pursuant to the Call Right. |
5.4 Closing. The closing of the purchase of the Call Shares by TomoTherapy shall
occur at the principal office of the Company on date designated by TomoTherapy that is on or before
fifteen (15) business days following TomoTherapy’s delivery of the Call Notice. At such closing,
TomoTherapy shall deliver to each selling Shareholder, against delivery of certificates duly
endorsed and stock powers representing the Call Shares held by such selling Shareholder, cash in an
amount equal to the Series A Purchase Price and the Series B Purchase Price, as applicable, for the
Call Shares held by such selling Shareholder, pursuant to a written purchase agreement between the
Company and each Shareholder, in which each Shareholder shall make all customary representations
and warranties given by sellers of a equity securities, including, without limitation,
representations and warranties as to: (1) binding execution of the purchase agreement; (2)
enforceability obligations under the purchase agreement; (3) authority, capacity and power to
execute and delivery the purchase agreement and the agreements contemplated thereby; (4) good and
marketable title to the Call Shares held by the selling Shareholder, free and clear of liens and
encumbrances; (5) proper approval of such proposed sale; and (6) no violation of any other
agreement to which the selling Shareholder is a party.
6. Remedies.
6.1 Covenants of the Company. The Company agrees to use its best efforts, within the
requirements of applicable law, to ensure that the rights granted under this Agreement are

hereby authorizes each of them to represent and to vote, if and only if the party (i) fails to vote

inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, all of such party’s Shares in favor of the election
of persons as members of the Board determined pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and
provisions of this Agreement. The proxy granted pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence is
given in consideration of the agreements and covenants of the Company and the parties in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and, as such, is coupled with an interest and
shall be irrevocable unless and until this Agreement terminates or expires pursuant to Section 8

8 hereof, purport to grant any other proxy or power of attorney with respect to any of the Shares,
deposit any of the Shares into a voting trust or enter into any agreement (other than this
Agreement), arrangement or understanding with any Person, directly or indirectly, to vote, grant
any proxy or give instructions with respect to the voting of any of the Shares, in each case, with
respect to any of the matters set forth herein.

hereto will be irreparably damaged in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not
performed by the parties in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached.

X-0 or Form S-3, and ending on the date specified by the Company and the managing underwriter (such
period not to exceed (x) one hundred eighty (180) days in the case of the IPO, which period may be
extended upon the request of the managing underwriter, to the extent required by any NASD rules,
for an additional period of up to fifteen (15) days if the Company issues or proposes to issue an
earnings or other public release within fifteen (15) days of the expiration of the 180-day lockup
period, or (y) ninety (90) days in the case of any registration other than the IPO, which period
may be extended upon the request of the managing underwriter, to the extent required by any NASD
rules, for an additional period of up to fifteen (15) days if the Company issues or proposes to

thereafter acquired); or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another,
in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such securities, whether any
such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock
or other securities, in cash, or otherwise. The foregoing provisions of this Section 7 shall not
apply to the sale of any shares to an underwriter pursuant to an underwriting agreement, and shall
be applicable to the Shareholders only if all officers and directors are subject to the same
restrictions. The underwriters in connection with such registration are intended third-party
beneficiaries of this Section 7 and shall have the right, power and authority to enforce the
provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto. Each Shareholder further agrees to execute
such agreements as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters in connection with such
registration that are consistent with this Section 7 or that are necessary to give further effect
thereto. Any discretionary waiver or termination of the restrictions of any or all of such
agreements by the Company or the underwriters shall apply pro rata to all Shareholders subject to
such agreements, based on the number of shares subject to such agreements, except that,
notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and the underwriters may, in their sole discretion,
waive or terminate these restrictions with respect to up to 1,000,000 shares of the Common Stock.
8. Term. This Agreement shall be effective as of the date hereof and shall continue in
effect until and shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of (a) the consummation of the IPO

transaction); and (b) termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.8 below.
9. Miscellaneous.
9.1 Additional Parties. Except as otherwise approved by the Board, in the event that
after the date of this Agreement, the Company enters into an agreement with any Person to issue

precedent to entering into such agreement, to become a party to this Agreement by executing a
Joinder Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, agreeing to be bound by and subject to
the terms of this Agreement as a Shareholder and thereafter such Person shall be deemed a
Shareholder for all purposes under this Agreement.

shall continue to be subject to the terms hereof, and, as a condition precedent to the Company’s
recognizing such transfer, each transferee or assignee shall agree in writing to be subject to each
of the terms of this Agreement by executing and delivering a Joinder Agreement substantially in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit B. Upon the execution and delivery of a Joinder Agreement by any
transferee, such transferee shall be deemed to be a party hereto as if such transferee were the
transferor and such transferee’s signature appeared on the signature pages of this Agreement and
shall be deemed to be a Shareholder. In addition to all other restrictions on the transfer of
Shares set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall not permit the transfer of Shares subject to
this Agreement on its books or issue a new certificate representing any such Shares unless and
until such transferee shall have complied with the terms of this Section 9.2. Each certificate

law other than the law of the State of Wisconsin and without regard to any rules of construction
concerning the draftsman hereof.

facsimile signature and 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.

for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.

Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon the earlier of actual

TomoTherapy, (b) the Company; (c) holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A
Common Stock (other than TomoTherapy); and (d) holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of

information regarding additional Shareholders without the consent of the other parties
hereto; and
(b) any provision hereof may be waived by the waiving party on such party’s own behalf,
without the consent of any other party.
-15-
The Company shall give prompt written notice of any amendment, termination or waiver hereunder
to any party directly affected thereby that did not consent in writing thereto. Any amendment,
termination or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 9.8 shall be binding on each party
and all of such party’s successors and permitted assigns, whether or not any such party, successor
or assign entered into or approved such amendment, termination or waiver.
9.9 Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy
accruing to any party under this Agreement, upon any breach or default of any other party under
this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such non-breaching or
non-defaulting party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an
acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any
waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default previously
or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the
part of any party of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any
party of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, must be in writing and shall be effective
only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. All remedies, either under this

follows:

AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, (A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST
FROM THE COMPANY), AND BY ACCEPTING ANY INTEREST IN SUCH SHARES THE PERSON ACCEPTING
SUCH INTEREST SHALL BE DEEMED TO AGREE TO AND SHALL BECOME BOUND BY ALL THE
PROVISIONS OF THAT SHAREHOLDER AGREEMENT, INCLUDING CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER
AND OWNERSHIP SET FORTH THEREIN.”
The Company, by its execution of this Agreement, agrees that it will cause the certificates
evidencing the Shares issued after the date hereof to bear the legend required by this
Section 9.12, and it shall supply, free of charge, a copy of this Agreement to any holder of a
certificate evidencing Shares upon written request from such holder to the Company at its principal
office. The parties to this Agreement do hereby agree that the failure to cause the
certificates evidencing the Shares to bear the legend required by this Section 9.12 herein and/or
-16-
the failure of the Company to supply, free of charge, a copy of this Agreement as provided
hereunder shall not affect the validity or enforcement of this Agreement.
9.13 Stock Splits, Stock Dividends, Etc. In the event of any issuance of Shares
hereafter to any of the Shareholders (including, without limitation, in connection with any stock
split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, or the like), such Shares shall become

proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement except in the federal and state courts
located within the geographic boundaries of Dane County in the State of Wisconsin, and (c) hereby
waive, and agree not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise, in any such suit,
action or proceeding, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the
above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the
