2.2 IPO Shares.
(a) Upon the closing of the sale of shares of the Company’s Common Stock (“Common Stock”) in a firm-commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement (the “Initial Public Offering”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), the Company may elect to sell and issue to the Purchaser (the “Company’s Option”), in which case the Purchaser shall purchase, the Company IPO Shares (defined below). If the Company does not exercise the Company’s Option, the Purchaser may elect to Purchase (the “Purchaser’s Option”), in which case the Company shall sell and issue to the Purchaser, the Purchaser IPO Shares (defined below). The Company IPO Shares and the Purchaser IPO Shares are referred to herein as the “IPO Shares.” The IPO Shares will be sold by the Company and purchased by the Purchaser at a purchase price per share equal to the initial offering price to the public in the Initial Public Offering (the “IPO Price”). The IPO Shares shall, subject to the determination by the Company, with the advice of counsel, that such offer and/or sale does not violate applicable state or federal securities laws or regulations or any rule, policy or limit imposed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority or its staff, any securities exchange or any other applicable regulatory body (together, the “Applicable Regulations”), be registered by the Company for sale by the underwriters to the Purchaser pursuant to the registration statement filed under the Act in connection with the Initial Public Offering. Should either the Company not be permitted to offer to the Purchaser all of the IPO Shares as an allotment in the Initial Public Offering, or the Purchaser not be able to purchase all of the IPO Shares as an allotment in the Initial Public Offering, in either case as a result of the Applicable Regulations, then the Purchaser shall instead purchase from the Company, and the Company shall sell to the Purchaser in a private placement (the “Private Placement”), concurrently with the Initial Public Offering, the portion of the IPO Shares that is not included as an allotment in the Initial Public Offering at the IPO Price, with the result that the IPO Shares purchased in the Initial Public Offering and the IPO Shares purchased in the Private Placement shall, in the aggregate, equal the IPO Commitment. The “Company IPO Shares” shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) having an aggregate IPO Price equal to the lesser of (i) ten percent (10%) of the total gross offering proceeds (prior to underwriter commissions and expenses) of the Initial Public Offering and (ii) $10,000,000. The “Purchaser IPO Shares” shall be the number of shares of Common Stock specified in the Purchaser Election Notice (defined below), provided that the Purchaser IPO Shares shall not be more than the Maximum Purchaser IPO Shares (defined below). The “Maximum Purchaser IPO Shares” shall be a number of shares of Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) having an aggregate IPO Price equal to ten percent (10%) of the total gross offering proceeds (prior to underwriter commissions and expenses) of the Initial Public Offering.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser shall have no obligation to purchase any IPO Shares if, at the time of the IPO Closing for such shares, the Company is in default in any material respect, which has not been waived in writing by the Purchaser, under the Collaboration Agreement (which such default would permit the Purchaser or the applicable affiliate to terminate such agreement if not cured within applicable cure periods). In the event that the Purchaser is released from its obligation to purchase IPO Shares
-3-
pursuant to the first sentence of this subsection (b) because of a default of the Company, which such default is then subject to a cure period, such obligation shall be suspended until the end of such cure period, at which time the obligation shall be reinstated (if such default has been cured within the applicable cure period, in which case the time periods set forth herein relating to the purchase and sale of such shares shall be extended by the period of such suspension) or terminated (if the default has not been timely cured).
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the foregoing obligations of (i) the Purchaser to purchase IPO Shares in connection with the exercise of the Company’s Option and (ii) the Company to sell IPO Shares in connection with the Purchaser’s Option, shall terminate upon a Company Sale (as defined in the Investor Rights Agreement); and the foregoing obligation of the Company to sell IPO Shares in connection with the Purchaser’s Option shall terminate (if not already terminated pursuant to this Section 2.2(c)) on the date on which the Purchaser (together with its Affiliated Parties (as defined below)) holds fewer than 50% of the Shares acquired hereunder.
(d) At least ten (10) business days prior to the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company will provide written notice of such closing to the Purchaser (the “IPO Notice”), which such IPO Notice will (i) include estimates of the IPO Price, the Company IPO Shares and the Maximum Purchaser IPO Shares and (ii) indicate whether the Company is exercising the Company Option, specifying in each case the estimated number of shares available for sale in the Initial Public Offering and, if applicable, the estimated number of shares available for sale in the Private Placement. Prior to the sixth (6th) business day after receipt of the IPO Notice, if the Company has declined to exercise the Company Option, the Purchaser shall provide written notice to the Company (the “Purchaser Election Notice”) of whether it elects to exercise the Purchaser Option and, if so, the number of shares of Common Stock that will constitute the Purchaser IPO Shares, up to the Maximum Purchaser IPO Shares. If the Company declines to exercise the Company Option and the Purchaser does not deliver the Purchaser Election Notice prior to the sixth (6th) business day after its receipt of the IPO Notice, the IPO Shares will equal zero. Promptly following the determination of the IPO Price, the Company shall notify the Purchaser of the IPO Price and the number of IPO Shares, determined in accordance with this Section 2.2. The purchase and sale of the IPO Shares (both in the Initial Public Offering and, if applicable, the Private Placement) shall take place on the day of such closing of the Initial Public Offering, at such time and place as the Company and the Purchaser mutually agree upon orally or in writing (which time and place are hereby designated as the “IPO Closing”). At the IPO Closing, the Company shall deliver to the Purchaser a certificate representing the IPO Shares, against payment of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any authorization, approval or permit of any governmental authority or regulatory body of the United States or of any other applicable jurisdiction is required in connection with the issuance of the IPO Shares at the IPO Closing, then the parties hereto shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly obtain such authorizations, approvals and permits, and the IPO Closing shall take place within three (3) business days after all such authorizations, approvals and permits have been obtained.

(a) Restricted Shares shall not be sold or transferred unless either (i) they first shall have been registered under the Securities Act or (ii) the Company first shall have been furnished with an opinion of legal counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such sale or transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
-13-
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no registration or opinion of counsel shall be required for (i) a transfer by the Purchaser to an Affiliated Party (as such term is defined below) of the Purchaser, or (ii) a transfer made in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act. For purposes of this Agreement “Affiliated Party” shall mean, with respect to the Purchaser and any person or entity which, directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Purchaser, including, without limitation, any general partner, officer or director of the Purchaser.
5.3 Legend. Each certificate representing Restricted Shares shall bear a legend substantially in the following form:
“The shares represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred, pledged or hypothecated unless and until such shares are registered under such Act or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company is obtained to the effect that such registration is not required.”
The foregoing legend shall be removed from the certificates representing any Restricted Shares, at the request of the holder thereof, at such time as (a) a period of at least one year, as determined in accordance with paragraph (d) of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, has elapsed since the later of the date the Restricted Shares were acquired from the Company or an affiliate of the Company, and (b) the Restricted Shares become eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1)(i) under the Securities Act.
