NU SKIN ENTERPRISES, INC. LOCK-UP AGREEMENT
NU SKIN ENTERPRISES, INC.
THIS LOCK-UP AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made as of October 22, 2003 (the “Effective Date”) by and between Nu Skin Enterprises, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and the Stockholder (as defined below).
Overview
This Agreement is intended to benefit all stockholders of the Company by providing for orderly sales of the Company’s stock in the public market. This Agreement generally creates a blanket prohibition on the stockholder or related entities making any sales of the Company’s stock or taking any actions that are economically similar to a sale, either directly or indirectly. This Agreement then lists exceptions to this general rule, which are the types of sales, transfers and other economically similar actions that a Stockholder is permitted to take, provided that various requirements are met. Generally, sales to the Company, donations to independent religious charities, limited pledges to secure loans, estate planning transfers and the satisfaction of existing options granted to independent parties are the only transactions allowed during the first two years of this Agreement. Thereafter, private and open market sales are allowed within volume limitations described in Section 2 and subject to compliance with securities laws. Definitions and cross-references appear in Section 24.

1. Two-Year Prohibition on Sales or Transfers. The Stockholder, including the Stockholder’s Affiliated Entities, hereby agrees that for a period of two (2) years from the Effective Date (the “Lock-Up Period”), the Stockholder will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, give, donate, transfer or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Lock-Up Shares or securities or rights convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any Lock-Up Shares, enter into a transaction which would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic or voting consequences of ownership of such securities, whether any such aforementioned transaction is to be settled by delivery of the Lock-Up Shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, or publicly disclose the intention to make any such offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any such transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement (the “Lock-Up Agreement”).
2. Post-Lock-Up Restrictions on Sales—Volume Limitations. After the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, the aggregate number of Lock-Up Shares that may be sold or otherwise Transferred (as defined below) by the Stockholder (taking into account sales and other Transfers (a) directly from the Stockholder, (b) by the Stockholder’s Affiliated Entities and (c) by any holder of Lock-Up Shares previously sold or otherwise Transferred to such holder by the Stockholder after the Effective Date(but taking into account only Lock-Up Shares transferred to the holder by the Stockholder)) shall not exceed 300,000 Lock-Up Shares (as adjusted for any stock split, combination or the like) within any fiscal quarter of the Company and shall not exceed 125,000 Lock-Up Shares (as adjusted for any stock split, combination or the like) in any 30-day period (the “Volume Limitations”).
3. Allowable Sales During Lock-Up Period and Thereafter. Notwithstanding the terms of Section 1 above, during the Lock-Up Period the Stockholder may:
(a) | Transfer Lock-Up Shares to the Company or its designee. |
(b) | Make a bona fide charitable donation to a non-profit, religious organization or institution that is independent of the Stockholder (a “Charitable Donee”). |
(c) | Grant and maintain a bona fide lien or security interest in, pledge, hypothecate or encumber (collectively, a “Pledge”) any Lock-Up Shares beneficially owned by him, her or it to a nationally or internationally recognized financial institution with assets of not less than $10 billion (an “Institution”) in connection with a loan to the Stockholder; provided, however, that (i) the Stockholder (treating the Stockholder and all Stockholder’s Affiliated Entities in the aggregate as one entity) shall not Pledge Lock-Up Shares to secure loans in the aggregate in excess of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000); (ii) the Stockholder gives the Company’s Secretary 5 days’ prior written notice that he, she or it intends to Pledge Lock-Up Shares to an Institution pursuant to this Section 3(c); and (iii) the Institution agrees in writing at or prior to the time of such Pledge that the Company shall receive timely notice of any margin call or event of default and shall have the right to satisfy any margin call or cure any event of default by the Stockholder in connection with any loan to which the Pledge relates by purchasing any or all Lock-Up Shares Pledged at a price equal to 50% of the then-current market value (as calculated using the average closing sales price of the Company’s Common Stock for the 15 immediately previous trading days) on the date of the margin call or event of default, such election by the Company to be shown by written notice to the Institution and payment within 5 business days of notice being received by the Company, with transfer of the Lock-Up Shares to the Company to be completed immediately upon receipt of such payment. In the event that the Company’s payment for the Lock-Up Shares exceeds the amount owed to the Institution by the Stockholder, any excess amount shall be paid promptly by the Institution to the Stockholder. In the event that both the Company and the Stockholder attempt to make payment to satisfy any margin call or event of default, the first to make full payment shall be deemed to have completed such purchase or cure (as the case may be), and any payments received by the Institution from the other party shall be promptly returned. This paragraph may not be relied upon for any non-bona fide loan or other form of indirect or disguised sale. |
The Stockholder hereby appoints and constitutes each of Xxxxx X. Xxxxx and M.
