SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
This SERIES A REDEEMABLE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
(this "AGREEMENT") dated as July 25, 2003 (the "EFFECTIVE DATE") is entered into
by and between Immersion Corporation, a Delaware corporation having its
corporate headquarters at 000 Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000 (the
"COMPANY") and Microsoft Corporation, a Washington corporation having its
corporate headquarters at Xxx Xxxxxxxxx Xxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000-0000 (the
"PURCHASER"). Capitalized terms have the meanings ascribed to such terms in
Appendix A.
In consideration of the premises and mutual covenants contained herein
and for other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is
hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. AUTHORIZATION AND SALE OF SHARES.
1.1 Authorization. The Company has duly authorized the
sale and issuance of up to 2,185,792 shares (the "SHARES") of its Series A
Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the "SERIES
A PREFERRED STOCK") and the issuance of shares of common stock, $0.001 par value
per share (the "COMMON STOCK"), to be issued upon conversion of the Shares (the
"SERIES A CONVERSION SHARES"), each having the rights, restrictions, privileges
and preferences set forth in the Company's Certificate of Designation of the
Powers, Preferences, and Rights of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred
Stock in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "CERTIFICATE OF
DESIGNATION").
1.2 Sale of Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions
of this Agreement, at the Closing (as defined in Section 2), the Company will
(i) sell and issue to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser will purchase from the
Company, the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock determined by dividing
six million dollars ($6,000,000) (the "PURCHASE PRICE") by the Per Share Price.
The Per Share Price shall be $2.745.
1.3 Use of Proceeds. The Company will use the proceeds
from the sale of the Shares for general working capital purposes.
2. THE CLOSING. The closing (the "CLOSING") of the sale and
purchase of the Shares under this Agreement shall take place at the offices of
Xxxxxxx Xxxxx & Xxxxx LLP, 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx at
2:00 p.m. on July 25, 2003, or at such other time, date and place as are
mutually agreeable to the Company and the Purchaser. At the Closing, the Company
will deliver to the Purchaser a certificate for the Shares being purchased by
such Purchaser, registered in the name of the Purchaser, against payment to the
Company of the Purchase Price therefor, by wire transfer, certified or cashier's
check, or other method acceptable to the Company. If at the Closing any of the
conditions specified in Section 5 hereof shall not have been fulfilled, the
Purchaser shall, at its election, be relieved of all of its obligations under
this Agreement without thereby waiving any other rights it may have by reason
of such failure or such non-fulfillment. The date of the Closing is hereinafter
referred to as the "CLOSING DATE."
3. REPRESENTATIONS OF THE COMPANY. Except as otherwise described
in the Filed SEC Documents (as defined in Section 3.18 below) (including the

defined in Section 3.2 below) is duly qualified to conduct business as a foreign
corporation and is in good standing in every other jurisdiction, if any, in
which the failure to so qualify would have a Material Adverse Effect. Complete
and correct copies of the Company's certificate of incorporation and bylaws and
the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of its Subsidiaries, as in effect on

effect, event, occurrence, development or developments which, individually or in

affairs, operations or financial condition of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, or (ii) would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially
impede, interfere, hinder or delay the performance by the Company of its
obligations hereunder.
3.2 Subsidiaries. Schedule 3.2 lists the Company's
subsidiaries (the "SUBSIDIARIES") and the jurisdictions in which each is
incorporated. Except as set forth in Schedule 3.2, all of the issued and
outstanding shares of capital stock of, or other equity interests in, each of
the Subsidiaries have been validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable
and are owned by the Company free and clear of all pledges, liens, charges,
encumbrances or security interests of any kind ("LIENS"), and free of any
restriction on the right to vote, sell or otherwise dispose of such capital
stock or other equity interests. Except for the capital stock of, or voting
securities or equity interests in, its Subsidiaries, for short-term investments,
or as set forth in Schedule 3.2, the Company does not own any shares of stock or
any other equity or long-term debt securities of any corporation or have any
equity interest in any firm, partnership, limited liability company, joint
venture, association or other entity.

and operations for such period. The Company has withheld or collected from each
payment made to each of its employees, the amount of all taxes (including, but

therefrom, and has paid the same to the proper tax receiving officers or

or procedures) (collectively, the "INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS") that are

or misappropriation by another person or entity of any of the Intellectual
Property Rights that are necessary for use in connection with the Company's
business as presently conducted. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.12, neither
the Company nor its Subsidiaries are infringing or misappropriating any
Intellectual Property Rights (other than unpublished patent applications) of any
other person or entity, nor, to the Company's knowledge, are the Company or its
Subsidiaries infringing the rights of any other person or entity granted under
any unpublished patent application. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.12, there
are no claims of infringement of any Intellectual Property Rights made or
threatened by a third party against or involving the Company.
3.13 Material Agreements. Except as filed with or listed
in the exhibit index to the Filed SEC Documents or as otherwise made available
to the Purchaser, neither Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to any
material contract, as such contracts are defined in Item 601(b)(10) of
Regulation S-K under the Securities Act (each such contract, a "COMPANY
CONTRACT"). To the Company's knowledge, each Company Contract is valid, binding
and in full force and effect and is enforceable by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or other laws affecting creditors' rights generally
and by general equitable principles. As of the date hereof, no party to any such
Company Contract has notified the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that it
intends to terminate such Company Contract. The Company or its Subsidiaries, as
the case may be, has performed in all respects all obligations required to be
performed by it to date under the Company Contracts and is not (with or without
the lapse of time or the giving of notice, or both) in breach or default in any
respect thereunder and, to the knowledge of Company, no other party to any of
the Company Contracts, as of the date hereof, is (with or without the lapse of
time or the giving of notice, or both) in breach or default in any respect
thereunder, except to the extent that such breach or default would not have a
Material Adverse Effect.
3.14 Compliance. The Company has, in all material
respects, complied with all laws, regulations and orders applicable to its
present and proposed business and has all material permits and licenses required
thereby. There is no term or provision of any material mortgage, indenture,
contract, agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it
is bound, or of any provision of any state or federal judgment, decree, order,
statute, rule or regulation applicable to or binding upon the Company, that
materially adversely affects or, to the best of the Company's knowledge so far
as the Company may now foresee, in the future is reasonably likely to materially
adversely affect, the business, prospects, condition, affairs or operations of
the Company or any of its properties or assets. To the Company's knowledge, no
employee of the Company is in violation of any contract or covenant (either with
the Company or with another entity) relating to employment, patent, other
proprietary information disclosure, non-competition, or non-solicitation.
3.15 Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Compliance. The Company is currently
and at all times prior to the date hereof has been in compliance in all material
respects with the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 and any and all rules or
regulations promulgated thereunder.

hereto, nor any report, certificate or instrument furnished to the Purchaser in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, when read
together, contains or will contain any material misstatement of fact or omits or
will omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained
herein or therein not misleading. The Company knows of no information or fact
that has or would have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects or
condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company that has not been disclosed to
the Purchaser in writing.
3.17 Financial Statements. The Company has made available

are hereinafter referred to collectively as the "FINANCIAL STATEMENTS." The
Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved,
and fairly present the financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries
and the results of their respective operations as of the date and for the
periods indicated thereon, except that the unaudited financial statements may
not be in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles because of
the absence of footnotes normally contained therein and are subject to normal
year-end audit adjustments which, individually, and in the aggregate, will not
be material. The Company and its Subsidiaries have implemented and maintain a
system of internal accounting controls meeting the requirements of applicable
law, including without limitation the requirements of Section 13(b)(2) of the
Exchange Act. Since March 31, 2003, there has been no Material Adverse Effect.
3.18 SEC Documents. The Company has made available

(including, without limitation, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current
Reports on Form 8-K) and definitive proxy statements filed by the Company with
the SEC during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the

Company has filed in a timely manner all documents that the Company was required
to file under the Exchange Act during the 12 months preceding the date of this
Agreement. As of their respective filing dates, the Filed SEC Documents

requirements of the Exchange Act, and none of the Filed SEC Documents, as of
their respective filing dates, contained, and none of the SEC Documents will
contain, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omit, as the case
may be, to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in
order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances

under which they were or are, as the case may be, made, not misleading, except
to the extent corrected by a subsequent Filed SEC Document.

entity in which any officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial
interest or is an officer, director, trustee or partner.

employee of the Company who has access to the Company's confidential or
proprietary information has executed a proprietary information agreement, in
substantially the form delivered to the Purchaser. To the best of the Company's
knowledge, no officer or key employee is in violation of any prior employee
contract or proprietary information or noncompetition agreement. No employees of
the Company are represented by any labor union or covered by any collective
bargaining agreement. There is no pending or, to the best of the Company's
knowledge, threatened labor dispute involving the Company and any group of its
employees. To the best of its knowledge, the Company has complied in all
material respects with all applicable state and federal equal employment
opportunity and other laws related to employment.
3.22 Investment Company. The Company is not an "investment
company" or an "affiliated person" of, or "promoter" or "principal underwriter"
for an investment company, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended.
3.23 Insurance. The Company maintains insurance against
such losses and risks and in such amounts as the Company believes in good faith
