to Joint Escrow Instructions in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A-2, until
(i) the Company exercises its Repurchase Option as provided in Section 5 above,
(ii) such Unvested Shares become Vested Shares, or (iii) such time as this
Agreement no longer is in effect. Upon vesting of the Unvested Shares, the
Escrow Agent shall promptly deliver to Purchaser the certificate or certificates
representing such Shares in the Escrow Agent's possession belonging to
Purchaser, and the Escrow Agent shall be discharged of all further obligations
hereunder. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, however, the Escrow Agent shall
nevertheless retain such certificate or certificates as Escrow Agent if so
required pursuant to other restrictions imposed pursuant to this Agreement.
(c) The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any act it may do or
omit to do with respect to holding the Shares in escrow and while acting in good
faith and in the exercise of its judgment.
(d) Transfer or sale of the Shares is subject to restrictions on
transfer imposed by any applicable state and federal securities laws. Any
transferee shall hold such Shares subject to all the provisions hereof and shall
acknowledge the same by signing a copy of this Agreement.
(e) No Shares may be sold, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise
transferred by Purchaser until such Shares have become Vested Shares and are no
longer subject to any security agreement for the benefit of the Company.
7. OWNERSHIP, VOTING RIGHTS, DUTIES. This Agreement shall not affect in
any way the ownership, voting rights or other rights or duties of Purchaser,
except as specifically provided herein. Purchaser shall enjoy rights as a
stockholder until such time as Purchaser disposes of the Shares or the Company
and/or its assignee(s) exercises the Repurchase Option hereunder. Upon any such
exercise, Purchaser shall have no further rights as a holder of the Shares so
purchased except the right to receive payment for the Shares so purchased in
accordance with the provisions of this
-4-
Agreement, and Purchaser or the Escrow Agent, as the case may be, shall
forthwith cause the certificate(s) evidencing the Shares so purchased to be
surrendered to the Company for transfer or cancellation.
8. RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS; STOP-TRANSFER ORDERS.
(A) LEGENDS. Purchaser understands and agrees that the Company shall
cause the legends set forth below or legends substantially equivalent thereto,
to be placed upon any certificate(s) evidencing ownership of the Shares together
with any other legends that may be required by state or federal securities laws:
THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND RIGHTS OF REPURCHASE FOR THE BENEFIT OF
SOLECTRON CORPORATION OR ITS ASSIGNEE(S) AS SET FORTH IN A
RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN SOLECTRON CORPORATION
AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SHARES, COPIES OF WHICH MAY BE
OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF SOLECTRON CORPORATION. SUCH
TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS AND RIGHTS OF REPURCHASE ARE BINDING ON
TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES.
(B) STOP-TRANSFER NOTICES. Purchaser agrees that, in order to ensure
compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the Company may issue
appropriate "stop transfer" instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and
that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate
notations to the same effect in its own records.
9. SECTION 83(B) ELECTIONS. Purchaser understands that Section 83 of
the Code, taxes as ordinary income the difference between the amount paid for
the Shares and the fair market value of the Shares as of the date any
restrictions on the Shares lapse. In this context, "restriction" means the right
of the Company to buy back the Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Option. Because
the Company has registered equity securities under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (the "EXCHANGE ACT"), "restriction" with respect to officers, directors,
and ten percent (10%) stockholders also includes the six-month period after the
purchase of the Shares during which sales of certain securities by such
officers, directors, and ten percent (10%) stockholders would give rise to
liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. Purchaser understands that he
may elect to be taxed at the time the Shares are purchased rather than when any
restrictions applicable to the Shares lapse, by filing an election under Section
83(b) of the Code with the Internal Revenue Service within thirty (30) days from
the date of purchase. Even if the fair market value of the Shares equals the
amount paid for the Shares, the election may be made to avoid adverse tax
consequences in the future. Purchaser understands that failure to make this
filing in a timely manner shall result in the recognition of ordinary income by
Purchaser, as any restrictions applicable to the Shares lapse, on any difference
between the purchase price and the fair market value of the Shares at the time
such restrictions lapse. A form of Election under Section 83(b) is attached to
the Agreement as Exhibit A -3 for reference.
PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS PURCHASER'S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY
AND NOT THE COMPANY'S TO FILE TIMELY THE ELECTION UNDER
-5-
SECTION 83(b) OF THE CODE, EVEN IF PURCHASER REQUESTS THE COMPANY OR ITS
REPRESENTATIVE TO MAKE THIS FILING ON PURCHASER'S BEHALF.
10. ADDITIONAL ACTIONS. The parties shall execute such further
instruments and take such further action as may reasonably be necessary to carry
out the intent of this Agreement.
11. ASSIGNMENT. The Company may assign its rights and delegate its
duties under this Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the
successors and assigns of the Company and, subject to the restrictions on
transfer herein set forth, be binding upon Purchaser, Purchaser's heirs,
executors, administrators, successors and assigns.
12. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENT. This Agreement, the Employment
Agreement and the Joint Escrow Instructions executed in connection herewith
constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties
with regard to the subjects hereof and thereof, and no party shall be liable or
bound to any other party in any manner by any warranties, representations or
covenants except as specifically set forth herein. Except as expressly provided
herein, neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be amended, waived,
discharged or terminated other than by a written instrument signed by the party
against whom enforcement of any such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination
is sought.
13. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California as they
apply to contracts entered into and wholly to be performed within such state.
Purchaser represents that Purchaser has read this Agreement and is
familiar with its terms and provisions. Purchaser hereby agrees to accept as
binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Board upon
any questions arising under this Agreement.
14. NO GUARANTEE OF CONTINUED SERVICE. PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES AND
AGREES THAT THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER DO NOT
CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE
PROVIDER OF THE COMPANY FOR ANY PERIOD OR AT ALL. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT
SHALL AFFECT IN ANY MANNER WHATSOEVER OR INTERFERE WITH THE RIGHT OR POWER OF
THE COMPANY, OR A PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY OF THE COMPANY, TO TERMINATE PURCHASER'S
RELATIONSHIP WITH THE COMPANY AT ANY TIME, FOR ANY OR NO REASON, WITH OR WITHOUT
CAUSE.
15. ADVICE OF COUNSEL. Purchaser has reviewed this Agreement in its
entirety, has had an opportunity to obtain the advice of independent counsel
prior to executing this Agreement and fully understands all provisions hereof.
16. AUTHORIZATION OF TRANSFER. Purchaser hereby authorizes and directs
the Secretary or transfer agent of the Company to transfer the Stock as to which
the Repurchase Option has been exercised from Purchaser to the Company or the
Company's assignees.
-6-
17. WAIVER. Either party's failure to enforce any provision or
provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be construed as a waiver of
any such provision or provisions, nor prevent that party thereafter from
enforcing each and every other provision of this Agreement. The rights granted
both parties herein are cumulative and shall not constitute a waiver of either
party's right to assert all other legal remedies available to it under the
circumstances.
