The Corporation has no liabilities of any nature (whether known or unknown and whether absolute or contingent), except for (a) liabilities shown on the Balance Sheet and (b) contractual and other liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business which are not required by GAAP to be reflected on a balance sheet and which would not, either
individually or in the aggregate, have or result in a Corporation Material Adverse Effect. The Corporation does not have any liabilities (and there is no basis for any present or, to the Corporation’s Knowledge, future proceeding against the Corporation giving rise to any liability) arising out of any personal injury and/or death or damage to property relating to or arising in connection with any clinical trials conducted by or on behalf of the Corporation.

To the Corporation’s Knowledge, no person, corporation or other entity is infringing the Corporation’s rights to the Listed Rights or Intellectual Property. Schedule 5.12(e) lists any complaint, claim or notice, or written threat thereof, received by the Corporation alleging any such infringement, violation or misappropriation, and the Corporation has provided to the Investors complete and accurate copies of all written documentation in the possession of the Corporation relating to any such complaint, claim, notice or threat. The Corporation has provided to the Investors complete and accurate copies of all written documentation in the Corporation’s possession relating to claims or disputes known to each of the Corporation concerning any Corporation Intellectual Property.

1. Series B Designation and Amount; Existing Preferred Stock. The number of authorized shares of the Series B Stock is Nine Hundred Eighty Thousand (980,000). The number of shares, powers, terms, conditions, designations, preferences and privileges, relative, participating, optional and other special rights, and qualifications, limitations and restrictions, if any, of the Corporation’s Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “Series A-1 Stock”), Series A-2 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “Series A-2 Stock”), Series A-3 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.0001 per share, (the “Series A-3 Stock” and together with the Series B Stock, the Series A-1 Stock and the Series A-2 Stock, the “Participating Preferred Stock”), Series A-4 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “Series A-4 Stock”), Series A-5 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “Series A-5 Stock”) and Series A-6 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “Series A-6 Stock” and together with the Series B Stock, the Series A-1 Stock, the Series A-2 Stock, the Series A-3 Stock, the Series A-4 Stock and the Series A-5 Stock, the “Preferred Stock”) are as set forth in that certain Certificate of Designations of the Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A-2 Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A-3 Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A-4 Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A-5 Convertible Preferred Stock and Series A-6 Convertible Preferred Stock of the Corporation filed by the Corporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on May 17, 2011, as amended to date and from time to time (the “Existing Certificate”).
2. Ranking. As to dividends (other than with respect to the payment of the Series A-5 Special Accruing Dividend (as defined in the Existing Certificate) which shall rank senior in payment to any other dividends payable on any and all series of Preferred Stock) and upon Liquidation (as defined in Section 4(b) hereof) or an Event of Sale (as defined in Section 5 hereof), each share of Series B Stock shall rank equally with each other share of Series B Stock, senior to all shares of Series A-1 Stock, Series A-2 Stock, Series A-3 Stock, Series A-4 Stock, Series A-5 Stock and Series A-6 Stock and senior to all shares of Common Stock and all other classes or series of stock not authorized by this Certificate or the Existing Certificate as of the date hereof (the “Effective Time”), except as otherwise approved by the affirmative vote or consent of (i) the holders of at least 70% of the then outstanding shares of Series B Stock and (ii)
the Senior Majority (as defined in the Existing Certificate) (the stockholders referenced in the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii) being referred to herein collectively as the “Required Investor Majority”).
3. Dividend Provisions.
(a) The holders of shares of Series B Stock shall be entitled to receive a per share dividend at the rate of 8% of the Series B Original Purchase Price (as defined in Section 8 hereof) per annum, compounding annually (the “Series B Accruing Dividend”), and which will accrue on a daily basis, whether or not declared, commencing on the date of issuance of such share of Series B Stock. The holders of Series B Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends prior in right to the payment of dividends and other distributions (whether in cash, property or securities of the Corporation, including subscription or other rights to acquire securities of the Corporation) on the Series A-1 Stock, Series A-2 Stock, Series A-3 Stock, Series A-4 Stock, Series A-5 Stock, Series A-6 Stock and Common Stock, but not with respect to the payment of the Series A-5 Special Accruing Dividend, as set forth in Section 3(d) of the Existing Certificate, which shall rank senior in payment to any dividends payable with respect to the Series B Stock. Any dividends with respect to the Series B Stock shall be payable, at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors, in cash or the issuance of that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the amount of such accrued and unpaid dividends thereon by (y) the Current Market Price (as defined in Section 7(e)(viii) hereof) of a share of Common Stock, when as and if declared or paid by the Board of Directors and, as accrued, on any Liquidation (as defined in Section 4(b) hereof) or Event of Sale (as defined in Section 5 hereof). Dividends with respect to the Series B Stock shall be payable in shares of Common Stock (calculated based upon the then effective Series B Conversion Price, as defined in Section 7(e) hereof), as accrued, upon the conversion of the Series B Stock into Common Stock. Whenever any dividend may be declared or paid on any share of Series B Stock, the Board of Directors shall also declare and pay a dividend on the same terms, at the same rate and in like kind upon each other share of the Series B Stock then outstanding, so that all outstanding shares of Series B Stock will participate equally with each other and ratably per share (calculated as provided in Section 3(b) hereof). Whenever any dividend or other distribution, whether in cash or property or in securities of the Corporation (or subscription or other rights to purchase or acquire securities of the Corporation), may be declared or paid on: (i) any shares of the Common Stock, the Board of Directors shall also declare and pay a dividend on the same terms, at the same rate and in like kind upon each share of the Series B Stock then outstanding so that all outstanding shares of Series B Stock will participate in such dividend ratably with such shares of Common Stock (calculated as provided in Section 3(b) hereof); or (ii) any shares of any other series of Preferred Stock (other than the Series A-1 Accruing Dividend, the Series A-2 Accruing Dividend, the Series A-3 Accruing Dividend, and the Series A-5 Special Accruing Dividend, the Board of Directors shall also declare and pay a dividend on the same terms, at the same or equivalent rate upon each share of the Series B Stock then outstanding so that all outstanding shares of Series B Stock will participate in such dividend ratably with such shares of such other series of Preferred Stock (based on the number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of Series B Stock and each share of such other series of Preferred Stock is then convertible, if applicable, or, otherwise, the relative liquidation preference per share, of such other series of Preferred Stock as compared with the Series B Stock then outstanding).
(b) In connection with any dividend declared or paid hereunder, each share of Series B Stock shall be deemed to be that number of shares (including fractional shares) of Common Stock into which it is then convertible, rounded up to the nearest one-tenth of a share. No fractional shares of capital stock shall be issued as a dividend hereunder. The Corporation shall pay a cash adjustment for any such fractional interest in an amount equal to the fair market value thereof on the last Business Day (as defined in Section 8 hereof) immediately preceding the date for payment of dividends as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith.
4. Liquidation Rights.
(a) As to rights upon any Liquidation (as defined in Section 4(b) hereof) or an Event of Sale (as defined in Section 5 hereof), each share of Series B Stock shall rank equally with each other share of Series B Stock and senior to all shares of Series A-1 Stock, Series A-2 Stock, Series A-3 Stock, Series A-4 Stock, Series A-5 Stock, Series A-6 Stock, Common Stock and all other classes or series of stock not authorized by this Certificate or the Existing Certificate as of the Effective Time, except as otherwise approved by the affirmative vote or consent of the Required Investor Majority.
(b) In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the affairs of the Corporation (collectively, a “Liquidation”): (i) the holders of shares of Series B Stock then outstanding (the “Series B Stockholders”) shall be entitled to receive, ratably with each other, out of the assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution to its stockholders, whether from capital, surplus or earnings, before any payment shall be made to the holders of shares of Series A-1 Stock then outstanding (such holders, the “Series A-1 Stockholders”), the holders of shares of Series A-2 Stock then outstanding (such holders, the “Series A-2 Stockholders”), the holders of shares of Series A-3 Stock then outstanding (such holders, the “Series A-3 Stockholders”), the holders of shares of Series A-4 Stock then outstanding (such holders, the “Series A-4 Stockholders”), the holders of shares of Series A-5 Stock then outstanding (such holders, the “Series A-5 Stockholders”) or the holders of shares of Series A-6 Stock then outstanding (such holders, the “Series A-6 Stockholders” and collectively with the Series A-1 Stockholders, Series A-2 Stockholders, Series A-3 Stockholders, Series A-4 Stockholders and the Series A-5 Stockholders, the “Preferred Stockholders”), or the holders of shares of Common Stock or any other class or series of stock ranking on Liquidation junior to such Series B Stock, an amount per share equal to the sum of (A) the product of two (2) and the Series B Original Purchase Price (as defined in Section 8 hereof), plus (B) an amount equal to any declared or accrued but unpaid dividends thereon, calculated pursuant to Section 3(a) hereof; and (ii) after the distribution to the Series B Stockholders and to the holders of any other class or series of capital stock that is senior to the Series A-1 Stock as to Liquidation of the full amount to which they are entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 4(b) or any other section of this Certificate as in effect from time to time, the Preferred Stockholders and the holders of shares of Common Stock or any other class or series of stock ranking on Liquidation junior to the Series B Stock, shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution to its stockholders, whether from capital, surplus or earnings, an amount, if any, as determined in accordance with the terms of the Existing Certificate, subject to the terms of Section 4(d) of this Certificate.
(c) If, upon any Liquidation, the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders shall be insufficient to pay the Series B Stockholders the full amount to which each of them shall be entitled pursuant to Section 4(b) above, then the Series B Stockholders shall, prior to the Preferred Stockholders, the holders of shares of Common Stock or any other class or series of stock ranking on Liquidation junior to such Series B Stock, share ratably in any distribution of assets according to the respective amounts which would be payable to them in respect of the shares of Series B Stock held upon such distribution if all amounts payable on or with respect to such shares were paid in full.
(d) In the event of any Liquidation, after payments shall have been made first to the Preferred Stockholders and to the holders of any class or series of capital stock that is senior to or on parity with the Preferred Stock, or any series thereof, as in effect from time to time, and to the holders of any class or series of capital stock that is junior to or on parity with the Preferred Stock but senior to the Common Stock, of the full amount to which they each shall be entitled as aforesaid, the holders of Common Stock, as a class, shall be entitled to share ratably with the holders of Participating Preferred Stock (as provided in the last sentence in this Section 4(d)) in all remaining assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution to its stockholders. For purposes of calculating the amount of any
payment to be paid upon any such Liquidation pursuant to the participation feature described in this Section 4(d), each share of such Participating Preferred Stock shall be deemed to be that number of shares (including fractional shares and any shares attributable to the payment of accrued and unpaid dividends upon conversion of such Participating Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 7(b)) of Common Stock into which it is then convertible, rounded to the nearest one-tenth of a share.
(e) (i) In the event of and simultaneously with the closing of an Event of Sale, the Corporation shall, unless waived by the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at least 70% of the then outstanding shares of Series B Stock (the “Series B Majority”) or otherwise prevented by law, redeem all of the shares of Series B Stock then outstanding for a cash amount per share determined as set forth in Sections Section 4(a) through (d) hereof (the “Series B Special Liquidation Price,” said redemption being referred to herein as a “Series B Special Liquidation”). In the event the Event of Sale involves consideration that does not consist of cash, then the Series B Special Liquidation Price may be paid with such consideration having a value equal to the Series B Special Liquidation Price. To the extent there is any cash consideration in connection with an Event of Sale, at the option of the Series B Majority, the cash consideration will first (i) be applied to satisfy the Series B Special Liquidation Price payable to the Series B Stockholders and to the holders of any other class or series of capital stock that is senior to or on parity with the Series B Stock as to Liquidation; and then (ii) be applied, pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the Existing Certificate, to satisfy the Special Liquidation Price (as defined in the Existing Certificate) payable to the Preferred Stockholders and to the holders of any other class or series of capital stock that is junior to the Series B Stock but senior to or on parity with any other series of Preferred Stock as to Liquidation. For all purposes of this Section 4(e), the Series B Special Liquidation Price shall be equal to that amount per share which would be received by each Series B Stockholder if, in connection with an Event of Sale, all the consideration paid in exchange for the assets or the shares of capital stock (as the case may be) of the Corporation were actually paid to and received by the Corporation and the Corporation were immediately thereafter liquidated and its assets distributed pursuant to Sections 4(a) through (d) hereof. To the extent that the Series B Special Liquidation and/or Special Liquidations (as defined in the Existing Certificate) are occurring concurrently, the Series B Special Liquidation under this Section 4(e) shall be deemed to occur first. The date upon which the Series B Special Liquidation shall occur is sometimes referred to herein as the “Series B Special Liquidation Date”.
(ii) In the absence of an applicable waiver pursuant to Section 4(e) above, at any time on or after the Series B Special Liquidation Date, a Series B Stockholder shall be entitled to receive the Series B Special Liquidation Price for each such share of Series B Stock owned by such holder. Subject to the provisions of Section 4(e)(iii) hereof, payment of the Series B Special Liquidation Price will be made to each such holder upon actual delivery to the Corporation or its transfer agent of the certificate of such holder representing such shares of Series B Stock, as the case may be, or an affidavit of loss as to the same.
(iii) If on the Series B Special Liquidation Date less than all the shares of Series B Stock then outstanding may be legally redeemed by the Corporation, the Series B Special Liquidation shall be made first as to the Series B Stock (and any other class or series of capital stock that is senior to or on parity with the Series B Stock as to Liquidation), pro rata with respect to such Series B Stock (or such other class or series of capital stock that is senior to or on parity with the Series B Stock as to Liquidation) based upon the number of outstanding shares of Series B Stock (or such other class or series of capital stock that is senior to or on parity with the Series B Stock as to Liquidation) then owned by each such holder thereof until such holders are satisfied in full.
(iv) On and after any Series B Special Liquidation Date, all rights in respect of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall cease and terminate except the right to receive the applicable Series B Special Liquidation Price as provided herein, and such shares of Series B Stock shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding, whether or not the certificates representing such shares of Series B Stock have been received by the Corporation; provided, however, that, if the Corporation defaults in the payment of the Series B Special Liquidation Price with respect to any Series B Stock, the rights of the holder(s) thereof with respect to such shares of Series B Stock shall continue until the Corporation cures such default.
(v) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, all or any of the provisions of this Section 4(e) may be waived by the Required Investor Majority, by delivery of written notice of waiver to the Corporation prior to the closing of any Event of Sale.
(vi) Any notice required to be given to the holders of shares of Series B Stock pursuant to Section 7(g) hereof in connection with an Event of Sale shall include a statement by the Corporation of (A) the Series B Special Liquidation Price which each Series B Stockholder shall be entitled to receive upon the occurrence of a Series B Special Liquidation under this Section 4(e) and (B) the extent to which the Corporation will, if at all, be legally prohibited from paying each holder of Series B Stock the Series B Special Liquidation Price.
5. Definition of “Event of Sale”. For purposes of this Certificate of Designations, an “Event of Sale” shall mean: (A) the sale by the stockholders of voting control of the Corporation, (B) the merger, consolidation or reorganization with or into any other corporation, entity or person or any other corporate reorganization, in which (I) the capital stock of the Corporation immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or reorganization represents less than 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity (or, if the surviving entity is a wholly owned subsidiary, its parent) immediately after such merger, consolidation or reorganization or (II) the surviving entity (or, if the surviving entity is a wholly owned subsidiary, its parent) has a class of securities that is (or has been within 90 days prior to such transaction) tradeable on any public market or exchange or (C) the sale, exclusive license or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets or intellectual property of the Corporation in a single transaction or series of related transactions.
6. Voting.
(a) Subject to any separate voting rights provided for herein or otherwise required by law, the holders of Series B Stock shall be entitled to vote, together with the holders of Common Stock and the holders of other Preferred Stock as one class, on all matters as to which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to vote, in the same manner and with the same effect as such holders of Common Stock. In any such vote, each share of Series B Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to the number of votes per share that equals the number of shares of Common Stock (including fractional shares) into which each such share of Series B Stock is then convertible, rounded up to the nearest one-tenth of a share, but not including any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Series B Stock.
(b) Except as otherwise expressed, implied or contemplated in this Certificate or the Series B Purchase Agreement, the Corporation shall not, directly or indirectly, through a merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise, without the affirmative approval of the holders of the Required Investor Majority acting separately from the holders of Common Stock or any other securities of the Corporation, given by written consent in lieu of a meeting or by vote at a meeting called for such purpose, for which meeting or approval by written consent timely and specific notice in the manner
provided in the by-laws of the Corporation shall have been given to each Series B Stockholder, do any of the following:
(i) authorize, create, designate, issue or sell any class or series of capital stock (including any shares of treasury stock) or rights, options, warrants or other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for capital stock which by its terms is convertible into or exchangeable for any equity security, other than Excluded Stock (as defined in Section 7(e)(ii) of this Certificate), which, as to the payment of dividends or distribution of assets, including without limitation distributions to be made upon a Liquidation, is senior to or on a parity with the Series B Stock; or
(ii) amend, alter or repeal any provision of this Certificate or the Existing Certificate; or
(iii) permit, approve or agree to any Liquidation, Event of Sale, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation.
The foregoing approval shall be obtained in addition to any approval required by law.
(c) The Corporation shall obtain the consent of the Board of Directors before it may authorize or issue any additional shares of capital stock of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries.
(d) Unless a different vote is specified in this Certificate, any of the rights, powers, preferences and other terms of the Series B Stock set forth herein may be waived on behalf of all holders of Series B Stock by the affirmative written consent or vote of the Series B Majority.
7. Conversion.
(a) Any Series B Stockholder shall have the right, at any time or from time to time, to convert any or all of its shares of Series B Stock into that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock for each share of Series B Stock so converted equal to the quotient of the Series B Original Purchase Price divided by the Series B Conversion Price (as defined in Section 7(e) hereof) for such share of Series B Stock, as last adjusted and then in effect; provided, however, that cash shall be paid in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares of Common Stock, as provided in Section 7(d) hereof.
(b) (i) Any Series B Stockholder who exercises the right to convert shares of Series B Stock into shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section 7 shall be entitled to payment of all accrued dividends, whether or not declared and all declared but unpaid dividends payable with respect to such Series B Stock pursuant to Section 3 herein, up to and including the Conversion Date (as defined in Section 7(b)(iii) hereof).
(ii) Any Series B Stockholder may exercise the right to convert such shares into Common Stock pursuant to this Section 7 by delivering to the Corporation during regular business hours, at the office of the Corporation or any transfer agent of the Corporation or at such other place as may be designated by the Corporation, the certificate or certificates for the shares to be converted (the “Series B Certificate”), duly endorsed or assigned in blank to the Corporation (if required by it) or an affidavit of loss as to the same.
(iii) Each Series B Certificate shall be accompanied by written notice stating that such holder elects to convert such shares and stating the name or names (with address) in which the certificate or certificates for the shares of Common Stock (the “Common Certificate”) are to be issued. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date when such delivery is made, and such date is referred to herein as the “Conversion Date.”
(iv) As promptly as practicable thereafter, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to or upon the written order of such holder, at the place designated by such holder, (A) a Common Certificate for the number of full shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled and (B) a check or cash in respect of any fractional interest in shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, as provided in Section 7(d) hereof, payable with respect to the shares so converted up to and including the Conversion Date.
(v) The person in whose name the Common Certificate or Certificates are to be issued shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of Common Stock on the applicable Conversion Date, unless the transfer books of the Corporation are closed on such Conversion Date, in which event the holder shall be deemed to have become the stockholder of record on the next succeeding date on which the transfer books are open, provided that the Series B Conversion Price upon which the conversion shall be executed shall be that in effect on the Conversion Date.
(vi) Upon conversion of only a portion of the number of shares represented by a Series B Certificate, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to or upon the written order of the holder of such Series B Certificate, at the expense of the Corporation, a new certificate covering the number of shares of Series B Stock representing the unconverted portion of the shares of Series B Stock represented by the Series B Certificate, which new certificate shall entitle the holder thereof to all the rights, powers and privileges of a holder of such Series B Stock.
(c) If a Series B Stockholder shall surrender more than one share of Series B Stock for conversion at any one time or holds more than one share of Series B Stock that is automatically converted, including without limitation pursuant to a Special Mandatory Conversion, then the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of Series B Stock so surrendered or held.
(d) No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of Series B Stock. The Corporation shall instead pay a cash adjustment for any such fractional interest in an amount equal to the Current Market Price thereof on the Conversion Date, as determined in accordance with Section 7(e)(viii) hereof.
(e) For all purposes of this Certificate of Designations, the initial conversion price of the Series B Stock shall be $6.142, subject to adjustment from time to time as follows (the conversion price of the Series B Stock is referred to herein as the “Series B Conversion Price”):
(i) Subject to Section 7(e)(ii) and 7(e)(x) below, if the Corporation shall, at any time or from time to time after the Series B Original Issuance Date, issue or sell any shares of Common Stock (which term, for purposes of this Section 7(e)(i), including all subsections thereof, shall be deemed to include all other securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, shares of Common Stock (including, but not limited to, Preferred Stock)) or options to purchase or other rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities, in each case other than Excluded Stock (as defined in Section 7(e)(ii) below), for a consideration per share less than the Series B Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Common Stock or other securities (a “Dilutive
Issuance”), then the Series B Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to each such Dilutive Issuance shall automatically be reduced to a price equal to the product obtained by multiplying such Series B Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Series B Stock, but excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Series B Stock) plus the number of shares of Common Stock that the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for the additional stock so issued would purchase at such Series B Conversion Price as in effect immediately prior to such issuance, and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance (including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Series B Stock, but excluding shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Series B Stock) plus the number of shares of additional stock so issued. For purposes of this Section 7(e)(i), the number of shares of Common Stock deemed issuable upon conversion of such outstanding shares of Series B Stock shall be determined without giving effect to any adjustments to the Series B Conversion Price resulting from the Dilutive Issuance that is the subject of this calculation. For the purposes of any adjustment of the Series B Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 7(e)(i), the following provisions shall be applicable.
a. In the case of the issuance of Common Stock in whole or in part for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor after deducting therefrom any discounts, commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Corporation for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof, plus the value of any property other than cash received by the Corporation, determined as provided in Section 7(e)(i)(b) hereof, plus the value of any other consideration received by the Corporation determined as set forth in Section 7(e)(i)(c) hereof.
b. In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part in property other than cash, the value of such property other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair market value of such property as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, irrespective of any accounting treatment; provided, however, that such fair market value of such property as determined by the Board of Directors shall not exceed the aggregate Current Market Price (as defined in Section 7(e)(viii) hereof) of the shares of Common Stock or such other securities being issued, less any cash consideration paid for such shares, determined as provided in Section 7(e)(i)(a) hereof and less any other consideration received by the Corporation for such shares, determined as set forth in Section 7(e)(i)(c) hereof.
c. In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for consideration in whole or in part other than cash or property, the value of such other consideration shall be deemed to be the aggregate par value of such Common Stock (or the aggregate stated value if such Common Stock has no par value).
d. In the case of the issuance of options or other rights to purchase or subscribe for Common Stock or the issuance of securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock or options to purchase or other rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable or exercisable securities:
i. the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in Sections 7(e)(i)(a), (b)
and (c) hereof), if any, received by the Corporation upon the issuance of such options or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7(e)(i)(a), (b) and (c) hereof);
ii. the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of, or in exchange for, any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration received by the Corporation for any such securities and related options or rights (excluding any cash received on account of accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Corporation upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in Sections 7(e)(i)(a), (b) and (c) hereof);
iii. if there is any change (whether automatic pursuant to the terms contained therein or as a result of the amendment of such terms) in the exercise price of, or number of shares deliverable upon exercise of, any such options or rights or upon the conversion or exchange of any such convertible or exchangeable securities (other than a change resulting from the original antidilution provisions thereof in place at the time of issuance of such security), then the Series B Conversion Price shall automatically be readjusted in proportion to such change (notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment pursuant to this clause shall have the effect of increasing the Series B Conversion Price to an amount which exceeds the lower of (i) the Series B Conversion Price on the original adjustment date, or (ii) the Series B Conversion Price that would have resulted from any Dilutive Issuances between the original adjustment date and such readjustment date);
iv. upon the expiration of any such options or rights or the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange such convertible or exchangeable securities (or in the event that the change that precipitated an adjustment pursuant to Section 7(e)(i)(d)(iii) hereof is reversed or terminated, or expires), then the Series B Conversion Price shall be automatically readjusted to the Series B Conversion Price that would have been obtained had such options, rights or convertible or exchangeable securities not been issued; and
v. if the terms of any option or convertible security (excluding options or convertible securities which, upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, would entitle the holder thereof to receive shares of Common Stock which are Excluded Stock), the issuance of which was not a Dilutive Issuance, are revised after the Series B Original Issuance Date (either automatically pursuant the provisions contained therein or as a result of an amendment to such terms) to provide for either (1) any increase in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of any such option or convertible security or (2) any decrease in the consideration payable to the Corporation upon such exercise, conversion or exchange, then such option or convertible security, as so amended, and the shares of Common Stock subject thereto shall be deemed to have been issued effective upon such increase or decrease becoming effective.
e. In the case of the issuance of shares of Common Stock on more than one date that are a part of one transaction or a series of related transactions and that would result in an adjustment to the Series B Conversion Price pursuant to the terms of this Section 7(e), and such issuance dates occur within a period of no more than 90 days from the first such issuance to the final such issuance, then, upon the final such issuance, the Series B Conversion Price shall be readjusted
to give effect to all such issuances as if they occurred on the date of the first such issuance (and without giving effect to any additional adjustments as a result of any such subsequent issuances within such period).
(ii) “Excluded Stock” shall mean:
a. Common Stock issued upon conversion of any shares of Preferred Stock, including any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any dividends accrued on such Preferred Stock;
b. Common Stock issued or issuable to officers, directors or employees of, or consultants, advisors or independent contractors to, the Corporation, pursuant to any written agreement, plan or arrangement to purchase, or rights to subscribe for, such Common Stock approved by the Board of Directors, including each of the Preferred Directors (as defined in the Existing Certificate);
c. Common Stock issued as a stock dividend or distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, or capital stock of any other class issuable upon any subdivision, recombination, split-up or reverse stock split of all the outstanding shares of such class of capital stock;
d. Common Stock or other securities issued or issuable to banks, lenders, equipment lessors or landlords, provided that each such issuance is approved by the Board of Directors, including, but not limited to, warrants to acquire Common Stock held by Silicon Valley Bank (or its affiliates, successors and assignees), warrants to purchase Preferred Stock issued to GE Capital Equity Investments, Inc. or any of its affiliates (“GECEI”) and Oxford Finance Corporation or any of its affiliates (“OFC”) pursuant to a debt financing approved by the Board of Directors (the “GE Financing”), shares of Preferred Stock issued or issuable to GECEI in connection with the GE Financing or upon exercise by GECEI or OFC of warrants issued in the GE Financing and shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of any such shares of Preferred Stock issued to GECEI or OFC pursuant to the GE Financing;
e. Common Stock or other securities issued or issuable to suppliers or third party service providers in connection with the provision of goods or services or to other third parties in connection with sponsored research agreements, collaboration agreements, development agreements, strategic partnerships or alliances, corporate partnerships, joint ventures or other licensing transactions, provided that each such transaction and related issuance is approved by the Board of Directors, including, but not limited to, (A) any shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock issued or issuable to Ipsen Pharma SAS (“Ipsen”), pursuant to the terms of that certain License Agreement, as amended and may be amended with the approval of the Board of Directors of the Corporation and in effect from time to time, by and between the Corporation and Ipsen as payment for milestones in lieu of cash payments and (B) shares of Series A-5 Stock issued pursuant to the Stock Issuance Agreement (as defined in Section 3(d) of the Existing Certificate) and the issuance of Series A-6 Stock issued or to be issued as dividends on such Series A-5 Stock, and shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any such shares of Series A-5 Stock and Series A-6 Stock;
f. Common Stock or other securities issued or issuable pursuant to the acquisition by the Corporation of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other entity by any merger, stock acquisition, reorganization, or purchase of substantially all assets or otherwise in which the Corporation or its stockholders of record immediately prior to the
effective date of such transaction, directly or indirectly, own a majority of the voting power of the acquired entity or the resulting entity after such transaction, in each case so long as such transaction is approved by the Board of Directors;
g. Common Stock or other securities, the issuance of which is approved by the Required Investor Majority, with such approval expressly waiving the application of the anti-dilution provisions of this Section 7 as a result of such issuance;
h. Preferred Stock or Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to any warrant outstanding as of the date hereof or any warrant and any shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock, or Common Stock issued upon conversion of any Preferred Stock, issued in connection with the Qualified Financing, any shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock upon exercise thereof and any Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Preferred Stock issued upon exercise thereof;
i. Common Stock or Convertible Securities actually issued upon the exercise of Options or shares of Common Stock actually issued upon the conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities, in each case provided such issuance is pursuant to the terms of such Option or Convertible Security; and
j. All Series B Stock and other securities issued pursuant to the Series B Purchase Agreement, and all shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of any such shares of Series B Stock or exercise or conversion of any such other securities.
(iii) If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time after the Series B Original Issuance Date (as defined in Section 8) is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or by a subdivision or split-up of shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such stock dividend, subdivision or split-up, the Series B Conversion Price shall be appropriately decreased in the form of a Proportional Adjustment (as defined in Section 8) so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of Series B Stock shall be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding shares.
(iv) If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time after the Series B Original Issuance Date is decreased by a combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date for such combination, the Series B Conversion Price shall be appropriately increased in the form of a Proportional Adjustment so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of Series B Stock shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares.
(v) Except as otherwise contemplated in the Series B Purchase Agreement, if at any time after the Series B Original Issuance Date, the Corporation shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Corporation (other than shares of Common Stock) or in cash or other property, then and in each such event provision shall be made so that the holders of the Series B Stock shall receive upon conversion thereof in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the kind and amount of securities of the Corporation, cash or other property which they would have been entitled to receive had the Series B Stock been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event and had they thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the conversion date, retained such securities receivable by them as aforesaid during such period, giving application to all
adjustments called for during such period under this paragraph with respect to the rights of the holders of the Series B Stock; and provided further, however, that no such adjustment shall be made if the holders of Series B Stock simultaneously receive a dividend or other distribution of such securities, cash, or other property in an amount equal to the amount of such securities, cash, or other property as they would have received if all outstanding shares of Series B Stock had been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event.
(vi) Subject to the provisions of Section 4(e) above, in the event, at any time after the Series B Original Issuance Date, of any capital reorganization, or any reclassification of the capital stock of the Corporation (other than a change in par value or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value or as a result of a stock dividend or subdivision, split-up or combination of shares), or the consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into another person (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Corporation is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any change in the powers, designations, preferences and rights, or the qualifications, limitations or restrictions, if any, of the capital stock of the Corporation) or of the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the properties and assets of the Corporation in their entirety to any other person (any such transaction, an “Extraordinary Transaction”), then the Corporation shall provide appropriate adjustment in the form of a Proportional Adjustment to the Series B Conversion Price with respect to each share of Series B Stock outstanding after the effectiveness of such Extraordinary Transaction such that each share of Series B Stock outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Extraordinary Transaction shall be convertible into the kind and number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Corporation, or of the corporation resulting from or surviving such Extraordinary Transaction, that a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable (immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Extraordinary Transaction) upon conversion of such share of Series B Stock would have been entitled to receive upon such Extraordinary Transaction. The provisions of this Section 7(e)(vi) shall similarly apply to successive Extraordinary Transactions.
(vii) All calculations under this Section 7(e) shall be made to the nearest one-tenth of a cent ($.001) or to the nearest one-tenth of a share, as the case may be.
(viii) For the purpose of any computation pursuant to Section 7(d), Section 3(a) hereof or this Section 7(e), the “Current Market Price” at any date of one share of Common Stock shall be defined as the average of the daily closing prices for the 20 consecutive Business Days ending on the fifth (5th) Business Day before the day in question (as adjusted for any stock dividend, split-up, combination or reclassification that took effect during such 20 Business Day period), determined as follows:
a. If the Common Stock is listed or admitted for trading on a national securities exchange, then the closing price for each day shall be the last reported sales price regular way or, in case no such reported sales took place on such day, the average of the last reported bid and asked prices regular way, in either case on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading.
b. If the Common Stock is not at the time listed or admitted for trading on any such exchange, then such price shall be equal to the last reported bid and asked prices on such day as reported by the NASD OTCBB or the National Quotation Bureau, Inc., or any similar reputable quotation and reporting service if such quotation is not reported by the NASD OTCBB or the National Quotation Bureau, Inc.
c. If the Common Stock is not traded in such manner that the quotations referred to in this Section 7(e)(viii) are available for the period required
hereunder, then the Current Market Price shall be the fair market value of such share, as determined in good faith by a majority of the entire Board of Directors.
(ix) In any case in which the provisions of this Section 7(e) shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event, the Corporation may defer until the occurrence of such event (A) issuing to the holder of any shares of Series B Stock converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional shares of capital stock issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event over and above the shares of capital stock issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustment, and (B) paying to such holder any cash amounts in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 7(d) hereof; provided, however, that the Corporation shall deliver to such holder a due xxxx or other appropriate instrument evidencing such holder’s right to receive such additional shares and such cash upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.
(x) If a state of facts shall occur that, without being specifically controlled by the provisions of this Section 7, would not fairly protect the conversion rights of the holders of the Series B Stock in accordance with the essential intent and principles of such provisions, then the Board of Directors shall make an adjustment in the application of such provisions, in accordance with such essential intent and principles, so as to protect such conversion rights.
(f) Whenever the Series B Conversion Price shall be adjusted as provided in Section 7(e) hereof, the Corporation shall forthwith file and keep on record at the office of the Secretary of the Corporation and at the office of its transfer agent or at such other place as may be designated by the Corporation, a statement, signed by both its President or Chief Executive Officer and its Treasurer or Chief Financial Officer, showing in detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Series B Conversion Price that shall be in effect after such adjustment. The Corporation shall also cause a copy of such statement to be sent by first-class, certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to each Series B Stockholder at such holder’s address appearing on the Corporation’s records. Where appropriate, such copy shall be given in advance of any such adjustment and shall be included as part of a notice required to be mailed under the provisions of Section 7(g) hereof.
(g) In the event the Corporation shall propose to take any action of the types described in Section 7(e)(i), (iii), (iv) or (v) hereof, or any other Event of Sale, other than the transactions contemplated by the Series B Purchase Agreement, the Corporation shall give notice to each Series B Stockholder in the manner set forth in Section 7(f) hereof, which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the date on which such action is to take place. Such notice shall also set forth such facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect of such action (to the extent such effect may be known at the date of such notice) on the Series B Conversion Price with respect to the Series B Stock, and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable or purchasable upon each conversion of Series B Stock. In the case of any action (other than any action contemplated or required by the Series B Purchase Agreement) that would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at least 20 days prior to the record date so fixed, and in the case of any other action, such notice shall be given not later than 30 days following the taking of such proposed action.
(h) The Corporation shall pay all documentary, stamp or other transactional taxes attributable to the issuance or delivery of shares of capital stock of the Corporation upon conversion of any shares of Series B Stock; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any
certificate for such shares in a name other than that of the Series B Stockholder in respect of which such shares of Series B Stock are being issued.
(i) The Corporation shall reserve out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Series B Stock, sufficient shares of Common Stock to provide for the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series B Stock.
(j) All shares of Common Stock which may be issued in connection with the conversion provisions set forth herein will, upon issuance by the Corporation, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, not subject to any preemptive or similar rights, and free from all taxes, liens or charges with respect thereto created or imposed by the Corporation.

“Option” shall mean rights, options or warrants to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire Common Stock or Convertible Securities.
“Proportional Adjustment” shall mean an adjustment made to the price of the Series B Stock upon the occurrence of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, stock combination reclassification or other similar change with respect to such security, such that the price of one share of the Series B Stock before the occurrence of any such change shall equal the aggregate price of the share (or shares or fractional share) of such security (or any other security) received by the holder of the Series B Stock with respect thereto upon the effectiveness of such change.
“Qualified Financing” shall mean the transaction involving the issuance of shares of Series B Stock and warrants to purchase Common Stock pursuant to the terms of the Series B Purchase Agreement.

9. Special Mandatory Conversion.
(a) Trigger Events. In the event that (i) the Series B Majority shall have elected to convert all shares of Series B Stock or (ii) the Common Stock of the Corporation becomes listed for trading on a national securities exchange, then each share of Series B Stock shall be converted automatically into shares of Common Stock, at the then effective conversion rate. Each of the conversions set forth in this Section 9(a) is referred to as a “Special Mandatory Conversion.” Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, including without limitation Section 3 hereof, all accrued but unpaid dividends on shares of Series B Stock, including without limitation the Series B Accruing Dividend, shall be paid in cash or shares of Common Stock, with the decision of whether to pay any such dividend in cash or in shares of Common Stock being made at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors (calculated based on the then effective Series B Conversion Price), upon the conversion of such shares of Series B Stock in connection with a Special Mandatory Conversion.
(b) Procedural Requirements. Upon a Special Mandatory Conversion, each holder of shares of Series B Stock converted pursuant to Section 9(a) shall be sent written notice of such Special Mandatory Conversion and the place designated for mandatory conversion of all shares of Series B Stock. Upon receipt of such notice, each holder of such shares of Series B Stock shall surrender his, her or its certificate or certificates for all such shares (or, if such holder alleges that such certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, a lost certificate affidavit and agreement reasonably acceptable to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against the Corporation on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of such certificate) to the Corporation at the place designated in such notice. If so required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or by his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing. All rights with respect to the Series B Stock so converted, including the rights, if any, to receive notices and vote (other than as a holder of Common Stock), will terminate at the time of the Special Mandatory Conversion (notwithstanding the failure of the holder or holders thereof to surrender the certificates for such shares at or prior to such time), except only the rights of the holders thereof, upon surrender of their certificate or certificates therefor (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement), to receive the items provided for in the next sentence of this Section 9(b). As soon as practicable after the Special Mandatory Conversion and the surrender of the certificate or certificates (or lost certificate affidavit and agreement) for Series B Stock so converted, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to such holder, or to his, her or its nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable on such conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof, together with cash as provided in Section 7(d) in lieu of any fraction of a share of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon such conversion and the payment of any declared but unpaid dividends on the shares of Series B Stock converted, and a new certificate for the number of shares, if any, of Series B Stock represented by such surrendered certificate and not converted pursuant to Section 9(a). Such converted Series B Stock shall be retired and cancelled and may not be reissued as shares of such series, and the Corporation may thereafter take such appropriate action (without the need for stockholder action) as may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of shares of Series B Stock accordingly.
(c) Duration of Section. This Section 9 and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall automatically terminate on the consummation of a Liquidation or an Event of Sale.

Form of Warrant
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT OR QUALIFICATION RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION OR QUALIFICATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
Date of Issuance: April [ · ], 2013
WARRANT TO PURCHASE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, [ · ] (the “Holder”) is entitled to purchase from Radius Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Warrant, at any time prior to the Expiration Date (as defined below), [ · ] ([ · ]) shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), at an exercise price per Warrant Share of $6.142 (the “Exercise Price”). The shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant are referred to herein as the “Warrant Shares”. The Warrant Shares and the Exercise Price are subject to further adjustment as set forth in Section 2.
1. Exercise of Warrant.
1.1 Term. This Warrant shall terminate and no longer be exercisable on April [ · ], 2018. For purposes of this Warrant, (a) “Expiration Date” shall mean the date upon which this Warrant expires in accordance with the terms of this Section 1.1, and (b) “Purchase Agreement” shall mean that certain Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated as of April [ · ], 2013, by and among the Company and the other parties thereto.
1.2 Method. This Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in part, by:
(a) the surrender of this Warrant (with the Notice of Exercise form attached hereto as Attachment A and the Investment Representation Statement attached hereto as Attachment B duly executed) at the principal office of the Company; and
(b) the payment to the Company, by check, wire or cancellation of indebtedness, of an amount equal to the Exercise Price per share multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares then being purchased.
1.3 Net Exercise. In lieu of Section 1.2 hereof, the Holder may elect to convert this Warrant or any portion thereof (the “Conversion Right”), by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with notice of the Holder’s intention to exercise the Conversion Right, into that number of Warrant Shares computed using the following formula:
X = Y(A-B)
A
Where:
X = The number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder upon exercise of the Conversion Right.
Y = The number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is being exercised.
A = The Fair Market Value (as defined below) of one Warrant Share at the time the Conversion Right is exercised.
B = Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).
For purposes of Section 1.3, “Fair Market Value” shall mean:
(a) If the Warrant is exercised in connection with and contingent upon an initial public offering, and if the Company’s registration statement relating to such initial public offering has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, then the initial “Price to Public” specified in the final prospectus with respect to such offering.
(b) If the Warrant is exercised in connection with and contingent upon an Event of Sale (as defined in the Company’s certificate of incorporation, as it may be amended and/or restated from time to time (the “Certificate”)), then the purchase price per share actually received by a holder of Common Stock.
(c) If the Warrant is exercised after the Common Stock is listed or admitted for trading on a national securities exchange, then the average of the daily closing prices of the Common Stock for the 20 consecutive trading days ending on the fifth (5th) trading day before the day in question (as adjusted for any stock dividend, split-up, combination or reclassification that took effect during such 20 trading day period) (or such shorter period of time during which such Common Stock was traded on such exchange), with the closing price for each day being the last reported sales price or, in case no such reported sales took place on such day, the average of the last reported bid and asked prices, in either case on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading or, if the Common Stock is not at the time listed or admitted for trading on any such exchange, then such price shall be equal to the last reported bid and asked prices on such day as reported by the NASD OTCBB or the National Quotation Bureau, Inc., or any similar reputable quotation and reporting service if such quotation is not reported by the NASD OTCBB or the National Quotation Bureau, Inc.
(d) If none of the immediately preceding clauses (a), (b) or (c) is applicable, then the fair market value as determined in good faith by the majority of the entire Board of Directors of the Company.
In the event of 1.3(d), above, the Company’s Board of Directors shall prepare a certificate, to be signed by an authorized officer of Company, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and method of determination of the per share Fair Market Value of one Warrant Share.
1.4 Delivery; Certificate. Upon receipt by the stock transfer agent or warrant agent of the Company at its office, together with, if applicable, the aggregate Exercise Price, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the applicable Warrant Shares, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that certificates representing such Warrant Shares shall not then be actually delivered to the Holder. The Company shall, as soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms hereof, direct its stock transfer agent to prepare a
certificate for the Warrant Shares purchased in the name of the Holder. If this Warrant should be exercised in part only, the Company shall, as soon as practicable after the surrender of this Warrant, execute and deliver a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder thereof to purchase the balance of the Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder.
1.5 Exercise Upon a Company Sale. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon and effective as of the occurrence of an Event of Sale, to the extent not previously exercised, this Warrant shall automatically be exercised by the Holder pursuant to Section 1.3 herein without any further action necessary on the part of the Holder (a “Sale Exercise”) unless the Holder notifies the Company in writing to the contrary prior to such automatic exercise; provided, however, that such automatic exercise shall not occur and this Warrant shall instead be terminated upon and effective as of the occurrence of an Event of Sale if the Exercise Price equals or exceeds the Fair Market Value calculated in accordance with Section 1.3(b) hereof in connection with such Sale Exercise.
1.6 Automatic Exercise. To the extent this Warrant is not previously exercised, it shall be deemed to have been automatically converted in accordance with Section 1.3 hereof (even if not surrendered) as of immediately before its expiration, involuntary termination or cancellation if the then-Fair Market Value of a Warrant Share exceeds the then-Exercise Price, unless Holder notifies Company in writing to the contrary prior to such automatic exercise.
2. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares. The number and kind of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of the following events:
2.1 Subdivision or Combination. If the Company at any time prior to the Expiration Date shall subdivide or combine its Common Stock, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased (and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant proportionately increased to the nearest whole) in the case of a subdivision or the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased (and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant proportionately decreased to the nearest whole) in the case of a combination.
2.2 Reclassification, Reorganization and Consolidation. In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or change in the type of securities of the Company issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination or stock dividend provided for in Section 2.1 above or Section 2.3 below) or consolidation or merger involving the Company in which the Common Stock is converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property, then, as a condition of such reclassification, reorganization, change, consolidation or merger, lawful provision shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Holder, so that the Holder shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant to purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities or property receivable in connection with such reclassification, reorganization, change, consolidation or merger by a holder of the same number and type of securities as were purchasable as Warrant Shares by the Holder immediately prior to such reclassification, reorganization, change, consolidation or merger. In any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Holder so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any shares of stock or other securities or property deliverable upon exercise hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Exercise Price per Warrant Share payable hereunder, provided the aggregate Exercise Price shall remain, as nearly as reasonably may be, the same.
2.3 Stock Dividends. If the Company at any time prior to the Expiration Date shall pay a dividend with respect to Common Stock payable in Common Stock (except any distribution accounted for in the foregoing Section 2.1), then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted (and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant proportionately increased), from and after the record date for shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, to that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction (a) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such dividend or distribution, and (b) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution.
2.4 Adjustment Certificate. Whenever the Exercise Price shall be adjusted as provided in Section 2 hereof, the Company shall forthwith file and keep on record at the office of the Secretary of the Company and at the office of its transfer agent or at such other place as may be designated by the Company, a statement, signed by both its President or Chief Executive Officer and its Treasurer or Chief Financial Officer, showing in detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Exercise Price that shall be in effect after such adjustment. The Company shall also cause a copy of such statement to be sent by first-class, certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to the Holder at such Holder’s address appearing on the Company’s records. Where appropriate, such copy shall be given in advance of any such adjustment.
3. Fractional Warrant Shares. No fractional Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder, but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor upon the basis of the Exercise Price then in effect.
4. Stock Fully Paid; Reservation of Warrant Shares. All Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be fully paid and nonassessable. During the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of the purchase rights evidenced by this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant. In the event that there is an insufficient number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant, the Company will take appropriate action to authorize an increase in the capital stock to allow for such issuance or similar issuance acceptable to the Holder.
5. Securities Laws; Transfer.
5.1 Compliance with Securities Act. The Holder, by acceptance hereof, agrees that this Warrant and the Warrant Shares are being acquired for investment and that it will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any Warrant Shares except under circumstances which will not result in a violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). Upon exercise of this Warrant, the Holder hereof shall confirm in writing, in the form attached hereto as Attachment B, that the Warrant Shares so purchased are being acquired for investment and not with a view toward distribution or resale. In addition, the Holder shall provide such additional information regarding such Holder’s financial and investment background as the Company may reasonably request. This Warrant and all Warrant Shares (unless registered under the Act) shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO,
OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT OR QUALIFICATION RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION OR QUALIFICATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
5.2 Transferability of Warrant. In connection with any transfer by Holder of this Warrant, the Company may require the transferee to provide the Company with written representations and warranties substantially similar to Holder’s representations and warranties set forth in Attachment B, and may require Holder to provide a legal opinion, in form and substance satisfactory to Company and its counsel, that such transfer is exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Act; provided, that the Company shall not require Holder to provide an opinion of counsel if the transfer is to an affiliate of Holder, provided that such affiliate is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Act. Any transferee (including, without limitation, any affiliate of Holder) shall take this Warrant subject to all of the terms and conditions thereof and such transferee’s rights under this Warrant shall be subject to such transferee’s compliance with all of the terms and conditions of this Warrant that are applicable to Holder. Following any transfer of this Warrant, at the request of either the Company or the transferee, the transferee shall surrender this Warrant to the Company in exchange for a new warrant of like tenor and date, executed by Company. Subject to the foregoing, this Warrant is transferable on the books of the Company at its principal office by the registered Holder hereof upon surrender of this Warrant properly endorsed. Upon any partial transfer, Company will execute and deliver to Holder a new warrant of like tenor with respect to the portion of this Warrant not so transferred. Holder shall not have any right to transfer any portion of this Warrant to any direct competitor of Company.
5.3 Disposition of Warrant Shares. The Holder agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Warrant Shares unless and until (a) the Holder shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, (b) the transferee has agreed in writing for the benefit of the Company to be bound by this Section 5 and (c):
(i) there is then in effect a registration statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement; or
(ii) the Holder shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will not require registration of the Warrant Shares under the Act; provided that the Company will not require opinions of counsel for transactions made pursuant to Rule 144 except in unusual circumstances.
5.4 Market Standoff. Each Holder agrees, in connection with the Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) of its equity securities (other than pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8), and upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing such offering, (a) not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of or otherwise dispose of any of the Warrants or the Warrant Shares (other than those included in the registration, if any) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days (or such longer period of time as may be required to accommodate regulatory restrictions on (i) the publication or other distribution of research reports and (ii) analyst recommendations and opinions, including, but not limited to, the
restrictions contained in FINRA Rule 2711(f)(4) or NYSE Rule 472(f)(4), as applicable, (or any successor rules or amendments thereto))) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Company or such underwriters and (b) to execute any agreement regarding (a) above as may be requested by the Company or underwriters at the time of the public offering; provided that such request is made of all officers, directors and 1% and greater Stockholders of the Company and each such person shall be similarly bound. The Company may impose stop transfer instructions to enforce this Section 5.4.
6. Rights of Stockholders. No Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of capital stock or any other equity securities of the Company, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder of this Warrant, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value or change of stock to no par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until this Warrant has been exercised and the Warrant Shares shall have become deliverable, as provided herein.
7. Registration Rights. The Company agrees that the Warrant Shares issued and issuable upon the exercise or conversion of this Warrant, shall have registration rights pursuant to and as set forth in the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Stockholders’ Agreement, as amended and in effect from time to time (the “Stockholders’ Agreement”). The foregoing referenced registration rights are subject to and conditioned upon the Holder, at the time of exercise of this Warrant, being a party to the Stockholders’ Agreement or becoming a party to the Stockholders’ Agreement by executing and delivering to the Company an Instrument of Adherence thereto and such registration rights will be governed by the terms of the Stockholders’ Agreement.
8. Miscellaneous.
8.1 Governing Law. The terms and conditions of this Warrant shall be governed in all respects by the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts without regard to conflicts of laws principles that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.
8.2 Successors and Assigns. This Warrant shall be binding upon any successors or assigns of the Company and inure to the benefit of the Holder and any successors or assigns.
8.3 Waivers and Amendments. This Warrant is one of a series of Warrants (collectively, the “Warrants”) that were originally issued by the Company pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. This Warrant and any provisions hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Holders of Warrants representing a majority of the number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants, provided, however, that the consent of the holder of this Warrant shall be required if such amendment or waiver adversely affects such holder in a disproportionate manner than the holders of the other Warrants.
8.4 Loss of Warrant. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company, or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like terms.

INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION STATEMENT
In connection with the exercise or conversion of a Warrant to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “Warrant Shares”) of Radius Health, Inc. (the “Company”), the undersigned (the “Holder”) hereby represents and warrants to the Company the following:
(a) Investment Experience. It is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and has substantial experience in evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of securities in companies similar to the Company so that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company and has the capacity to protect its own interests. It is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Warrant Shares.
(b) Purchase Entirely for Own Account. The Warrant Shares are being acquired for investment for the Holder’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof. Holder has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the Warrant Shares. The Holder further represents that it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations, to such person or to any third person, with respect to the Warrant Shares.
(c) Restricted Securities. The Holder understands that the Warrant Shares are characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such Warrant Shares may be resold without registration under the Act only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, the Holder represents that it is familiar with Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act. The Holder must bear the economic risk of this investment indefinitely unless the Warrant Shares are registered pursuant to the Act, or an exemption from registration is available. The Holder understands that the Company has no present intention of registering the Warrant Shares. The Holder also understands that there is no assurance that any exemption from registration under the Act will be available and that, even if available, such exemption may not allow the Holder to transfer all or any portion of the Warrant Shares under the circumstances, in the amounts or at the times the Holder might propose.

The Excess Securities Notice shall be given by the Corporation promptly after it learns of the intention of any ROFR Stockholder not to purchase all of its Equity Percentage of the Offered Securities, but in no event later than ten (10) business days after the expiration of the 30-Day Period. The ROFR who or which have agreed to purchase their Equity Percentage of the Offered Securities shall have the right to purchase the portion not purchased by such ROFR Stockholders (the “Excess Securities”), on a pro rata basis, by giving notice within ten (10) business days after receipt of the Excess Securities Notice from the Corporation. The twenty (20) business day period during which (i) the Corporation must give the Excess Securities Notice to the applicable ROFR Stockholders, and (ii) each of them must then give the Corporation notice of their intention to purchase all or any portion of their pro rata share of the its Excess Securities, is hereinafter referred to as the “Excess Securities Period.”
(e) If the ROFR Stockholders tender their Notice of Acceptance prior to the end of the 30-Day Period, indicating their intention to purchase all of the Offered Securities, or, if prior to the termination of the Excess Securities Period the ROFR Stockholders tender Excess Securities Notices to purchase all of the Excess Securities, the Corporation shall schedule a closing of the sale of all such Offered Securities. Upon the closing of the sale of the Offered Securities to be purchased by the ROFR Stockholders and the Excess Securities to be purchased by ROFR Stockholders, each ROFR Stockholder shall (i) purchase from the Corporation that portion of the Offered Securities and Excess Securities, as applicable, for which it tendered a Notice of Acceptance and an Excess Securities Notice, as applicable, upon the terms specified in the Offer, and (ii) execute and deliver an agreement further restricting transfer of such Offered Securities substantially as set forth in Section 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 of this Agreement. In addition, with respect to the Offered Securities and Excess Securities being purchased by the ROFR Stockholders, the Corporation shall provide each such ROFR Stockholder with the rights and benefits set forth in this Agreement. The obligation of the ROFR Stockholders to purchase such Offered Securities and Excess Securities, as applicable, is further conditioned upon the preparation of a purchase agreement embodying the terms of the Offer, which shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to such ROFR Stockholder and each of their respective counsels.
(f) The Corporation shall have ninety (90) days from the expiration of the 30-Day Period, or the Excess Securities Period, if applicable, to sell the Offered Securities (including the Excess Securities) refused by the ROFR Stockholders (the “Refused Securities”) to any other person or persons, but only upon terms and conditions which are in all material respects (including price and interest rate) no more favorable to such other person or persons, and no less favorable to the Corporation, than those set forth in the Offer. Upon and subject to the closing of the sale of all of the Refused Securities (which shall include full payment to the Corporation), each ROFR Stockholder shall (i)
purchase from the Corporation those Offered Securities and Excess Securities, as applicable, for which it tendered a Notice of Acceptance and an Excess Securities Notice, if applicable, upon the terms specified in the Offer, and (ii) execute and deliver an agreement restricting transfer of such Offered Securities and Excess Securities, as applicable, substantially as set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 of this Agreement. In addition, with respect to the Offered Securities or Excess Securities being purchased by the ROFR Stockholders, the Corporation shall provide each such ROFR Stockholder with the rights and benefits set forth in this Agreement. The Corporation agrees, as a condition precedent to accepting payment for and making delivery of any Refused Securities to any executive officer, employee, consultant or independent contractor of or to the Corporation, or to any other person, to have each and every such person execute and deliver this Agreement, as may be modified or amended from time to time pursuant to Section 11 hereof, to the extent such purchaser has not already executed this Agreement. The obligation of the ROFR Stockholders to purchase such Offered Securities and Excess Securities, as applicable, is further conditioned upon the preparation of a purchase agreement embodying the terms of the Offer, which shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to such ROFR Stockholder and each of their respective counsels.
(g) In each case, any Offered Securities not purchased either by the ROFR Stockholders or by any other person in accordance with this Section 2.3 may not be sold or otherwise disposed of until they are again offered to the ROFR Stockholders under the procedures specified in Paragraphs (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) hereof.
(h) Each ROFR Stockholder may, by prior written consent, waive its rights under this Section 2.3. Such a waiver shall be deemed a limited waiver and shall only apply to the extent specifically set forth in the written consent of such ROFRR Stockholder.
(i) This Section 2.3 and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall automatically terminate on the consummation of a Qualified Public Offering.
2.4 Filing of Reports Under the Exchange Act. For so long as the Common Stock is registered under the Exchange Act, the Corporation shall comply with all reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and shall comply with all other public information reporting requirements of the Commission as a condition to the availability of an exemption from the Securities Act for the sale of any of the Registrable Securities (including any such exemption pursuant to Rule 144 thereof, as amended from time to time, or any successor rule thereto or otherwise). The Corporation shall cooperate with each Holder in supplying such information as may be necessary for such holder to complete and file any information reporting forms presently or hereafter required by the Commission as a condition to the availability of an exemption from the Securities Act (under Rule 144 thereof or otherwise) for the sale of any Registrable Securities.
2.5 Directors’ & Officers’ Insurance. The Corporation shall continue to maintain a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy covering all directors, observers and executive officers of the Corporation.
2.6 Properties and Business Insurance. The Corporation shall continue to maintain from responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations valid policies of insurance against such casualties, contingencies and other risks and hazards and of such types and in such amounts as is customary for similarly situated businesses.
2.7 Preservation of Corporate Existence. The Corporation shall preserve and maintain its corporate existence, rights, franchises and privileges in the jurisdiction of its incorporation, and qualify and remain qualified as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which (i) such
qualification is necessary or desirable in view of its business and operations or the ownership or lease of its properties or (ii) the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Corporation.
2.8 Compliance with Laws. The Corporation shall comply with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, requirements and orders of the United States or any applicable foreign jurisdiction in the conduct of its business including all labor, employment, wage and hour, health and safety, environmental, health insurance, health information security, privacy, data protection and data transfer laws, and shall adopt and monitor policies and procedures designed to comply with all such applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders, except where noncompliance would not have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Corporation.
2.9 Payment of Taxes. The Corporation will pay and discharge all lawful Taxes (as defined below) before such Taxes shall become in default and all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if not paid when due, might become a lien or charge upon its property or any part thereof; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to pay and discharge any such Tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim so long as the validity thereof is being contested by or for the Corporation in good faith by appropriate proceedings and an adequate reserve therefore has been established on its books. The term “Tax” (and, with correlative meaning, “Taxes”) means all United States federal, state and local, and all foreign, income, profits, franchise, gross receipts, payroll, transfer, sales, employment, use, property, excise, value added, ad valorem, estimated, stamp, alternative or add-on minimum, recapture, environmental, withholding and any other taxes, charges, duties, impositions or assessments, together with all interest, penalties, and additions imposed on or with respect to such amounts, or levied, assessed or imposed against the Corporation.
2.10 Management Compensation. The Board (upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee or otherwise) shall determine the compensation to be paid by the Corporation to its management. Any grants of capital stock or options to employees, officers, directors or consultants of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries shall be made pursuant to a plan, agreement or arrangement approved by the Board.
2.11 No Further Pay-to-Play Provisions. The Corporation hereby covenants and agrees that at no time after the date of this Agreement, without the prior written consent of each of F2 Biosciences, Wellcome, one member of the HCV Group, one member of the MPM Group, one member of the Brookside Group, one member of the BB Bio Group, and one member of the Oxford/Saints Group, shall it enter into any agreement or amend the Certificate to implement terms that would automatically convert Preferred Shares into shares of Common Stock, or impose any other penalty on the holder of Preferred Shares, solely because the holders of such Preferred Shares fail to participate at any level in a transaction pursuant to which the Corporation raises funds through the issuance of debt or equity securities.
2.12 Confidentiality, Assignment of Inventions and Non-Competition Agreements for Key Employees. The Corporation shall cause each person who becomes an employee of or a consultant to the Corporation subsequent to the date hereof, and who shall have or be proposed to have access to confidential or proprietary information of the Corporation, to execute a confidentiality, assignment of inventions, and non-competition agreement in form and substance approved by the Board prior to the commencement of such person’s employment by the Corporation in such capacity.
2.13 Duration of Section. Sections 2.5 through 2.12 and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall automatically terminate on the earlier of (i) the consummation of an Event of Sale (as defined in the Certificate) or (ii) the automatic conversion of all of the Preferred Stock of the
Corporation pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Certificate upon the listing, or the admitting for trading, of the Common Stock on a national securities exchange.
SECTION 3. Transfer of Securities.
3.1 Restriction on Transfer. The Restricted Stock shall not be transferable, except upon the conditions specified in this Section 3, which conditions are intended solely to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act in respect of the Transfer thereof. In addition, no Restricted Stock shall be transferred unless, as conditions precedent to such transfer, the transferee thereof agrees in writing to be bound by the obligations of the transferring Stockholder hereunder.
3.2 Restrictive Legend. Each certificate evidencing any Restricted Stock and each certificate evidencing any such securities issued to subsequent transferees of any Restricted Stock shall (unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of Section 3.3 or 3.10 hereof) be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAW. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED, SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM UNDER SUCH ACT OR LAW.
3.3 Notice of Transfer. By acceptance of any Restricted Stock, the holder thereof agrees to give prior written notice to the Corporation of such holder’s intention to effect any Transfer and to comply in all other respects with the provisions of this Section 3.3. Each such notice shall describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed Transfer and shall be accompanied by: (a) the written opinion of counsel for the holder of such Restricted Stock or, at such holder’s option, a representation letter of such holder, addressed to the Corporation (which opinion and counsel, or representation letter, as the case may be, shall be reasonably acceptable to the Corporation), as to whether, in the case of a written opinion, in the opinion of such counsel such proposed Transfer involves a transaction requiring registration of such Restricted Stock under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption thereunder is available, or, in the case of a representation letter, such letter sets forth a factual basis for concluding that such proposed transfer involves a transaction requiring registration of such Restricted Stock under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or that an exemption thereunder is available, or (b) if such registration is required and if the provisions of Section 3.4 hereof are applicable, a written request addressed to the Corporation by the holder of such Restricted Stock describing in detail the proposed method of disposition and requesting the Corporation to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities pursuant to the terms and provisions of Section 3.4 hereof; provided, however, that (y) in the case of a Transfer by a holder to a member of such holder’s Group, no such opinion of counsel or representation letter of the holder shall be necessary, provided that the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.10 hereof to the same extent as if such transferee were originally a signatory to this Agreement, and (z) in the case of any holder of Restricted Stock that is a partnership, no such opinion of counsel or representation letter of the holder shall be necessary for a Transfer by such holder to a partner of such holder, or a retired partner of such holder who retires after the date hereof, or the estate of any such partner or retired partner if, with respect to such Transfer by a partnership, (i) such Transfer is made in accordance with the partnership agreement of such partnership, and (ii) the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.10 hereof to the same extent as if such transferee were originally a signatory to
this Agreement. If in an opinion of counsel or as reasonably concluded from the facts set forth in the representation letter of the holder (which opinion and counsel or representation letter, as the case may be, shall be reasonably acceptable to the Corporation), the proposed Transfer may be effected without registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or “blue sky” laws, then the holder of Restricted Stock shall thereupon be entitled to effect such Transfer in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered by it to the Corporation. Each certificate or other instrument evidencing the securities issued upon such Transfer (and each certificate or other instrument evidencing any such securities not Transferred) shall bear the legend set forth in Section 3.2 hereof unless: (a) in such opinion of such counsel or as can be concluded from the representation letter of such holder (which opinion and counsel or representation letter shall be reasonably acceptable to the Corporation) the registration of future Transfers is not required by the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and state securities laws, or (b) the Corporation shall have waived the requirement of such legend; provided, however, that such legend shall not be required on any certificate or other instrument evidencing the securities issued upon such Transfer in the event such transfer shall be made in compliance with the requirements of Rule 144 (as amended from time to time or any similar or successor rule) promulgated under the Securities Act. The holder of Restricted Stock shall not effect any Transfer until such opinion of counsel or representation letter of such holder has been given to and accepted by the Corporation (unless waived by the Corporation) or, if applicable, until registration of the Registrable Securities involved in the above-mentioned request has become effective under the Securities Act. In the event that an opinion of counsel is required by the registrar or transfer agent of the Corporation to effect a transfer of Restricted Stock in the future, the Corporation shall seek and obtain such opinion from its counsel, and the holder of such Restricted Stock shall provide such reasonable assistance as is requested by the Corporation (other than the furnishing of an opinion of counsel) to satisfy the requirements of the registrar or transfer agent to effectuate such transfer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the provisions of this Section 3.3 and of Sections 3.1 and 3.2 shall not apply, and shall be deemed of no force or effect, with respect to shares of capital stock of the Corporation that are subject to a re-sale registration statement under the Securities Act, provided that such registration statement has been declared, and continues to remain, effective by the Commission.
3.4 Registration Rights.
(a) Form S-1 Demand. If (i) at any time after 180 days after the Effective Date, the Corporation receives a request from Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding that the Corporation file a Form S-1 registration statement with respect to at least thirty percent (30%) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding or (ii) the Corporation receives a request from Holders of a majority of the Registrable Senior Securities that the Corporation file a Form S-1 registration statement with respect to the Registrable Senior Securities then outstanding, then the Corporation shall (1) within 20 days after the date such request is given, give notice thereof (the “Demand Notice”) to all Holders other than the Initiating Holders; and (2) as soon as practicable, and in any event within 60 days after the date such request is given by the Initiating Holders, file a Form S-1 registration statement under the Securities Act covering all Registrable Securities that the Initiating Holders requested to be registered and any additional Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by any other Holders, as specified by notice given by each such Holder to the Corporation within 20 days of the date the Demand Notice is given, and in each case, subject to the limitations of Sections 3.4(c), 3.4(f) and 3.6.
(b) Form S-3 Demand. If at any time when it is eligible to use a Form S-3 registration statement, the Corporation receives a request from Holders of at least ten percent (10%) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding that the Corporation file a Form S-3 registration statement with respect to outstanding Registrable Securities of such Holders having an anticipated aggregate offering price, net of Selling Expenses, of at least $10.0 million, then the Corporation shall (i) within 10 days after
the date such request is given, give a Demand Notice to all Holders other than the Initiating Holders; and (ii) as soon as practicable, and in any event within 45 days after the date such request is given by the Initiating Holders, file a Form S-3 registration statement under the Securities Act covering all Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by any other Holders, as specified by notice given by each such Holder to the Corporation within 20 days of the date the Demand Notice is given, and in each case, subject to the limitations of Sections 3.4(c), 3.4(f) and 3.6.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing obligations, if the Corporation furnishes to Holders requesting a registration pursuant to this Section 3.4 a certificate signed by the Corporation’s chief executive officer stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be materially detrimental to the Corporation and its stockholders for such registration statement to be filed and it is therefore necessary to defer the filing of such registration statement, then the Corporation shall have the right to defer taking action with respect to such filing, and any time periods with respect to filing or effectiveness thereof shall be tolled correspondingly, for a period of not more than 90 days after the request of the Initiating Holders is given; provided, however, that the Corporation may not invoke this right more than twice in any 12-month period.
(d) The Corporation shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any registration pursuant to Section 3.4(a) (i) after the Corporation has effected two registrations pursuant to Section 3.4(a); or (ii) if the Initiating Holders propose to dispose of shares of Registrable Securities that may be immediately registered on Form S-3 pursuant to a request made pursuant to Section 3.4(b). The Corporation shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any registration pursuant to Section 3.4(b) (i) during the period that is 30 days before the Corporation’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on a date that is 90 days after the effective date of, a Corporation-initiated registration, provided, that the Corporation is actively employing in good faith commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; or (ii) if the Corporation has effected two registrations pursuant to Section 3.4(b) during the 12-month period immediately preceding the date of such request. A registration shall not be counted as “effected” for purposes of this Section 3.4(d) until such time as the applicable registration statement has been declared effective by the Commission, unless the Initiating Holders withdraw their request for such registration, elect not to pay the registration expenses therefor, and forfeit their right to one demand registration statement pursuant to Section 3.4(a), in which case such withdrawn registration statement shall be counted as “effected” for purposes of this Section 3.4(d).
(e) Existing Registration Statement. The Corporation shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to the Corporation’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Reg. No. 333-175091) and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be requested by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Senior Securities and necessary to keep such registration statement effective until the earlier of (i) the sale of all Registrable Securities covered thereby or (ii) such time as the Registrable Securities registered on such registration statement are included in another registration statement covering the sale of such Registrable Securities, and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the sale or other disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement.
(f) The Corporation shall not be required to include in any registration statement an amount of securities that would exceed the maximum number of shares that can be included therein in accordance with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. In the event that not all Registrable Securities that Holders desire to include in a registration statement can be included in any one registration statement, then the Registrable Securities to be included shall be allocated among Holders on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by all Holders that have not been included in a registration statement.
3.5 Piggyback Registration.
(a) Each time that the Corporation proposes for any reason to register any of its securities under the Securities Act, other than (i) a registration relating to the sale of securities to employees of the Corporation or a subsidiary pursuant to a stock option, stock purchase or similar plan; (ii) a registration relating to a Rule 145 transaction; (iii) a registration on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities; or (iv) a registration in which the only Common Stock being registered is Common Stock issuable upon conversion of debt securities that are also being registered, the Corporation shall promptly give written notice of such proposed registration to all Holders, which notice shall also constitute an offer to such Holders to request inclusion of any Registrable Securities in the proposed registration.
(b) Each Holder shall have 30 days from the receipt of such notice to deliver to the Corporation a written request specifying the number of Registrable Securities such Holder intends to sell and the Holder’s intended method of disposition.
(c) In the event that the proposed registration by the Corporation is, in whole or in part, an underwritten public offering of securities of the Corporation, any request under Section 3.5(b) may specify that the Registrable Securities be included in the underwriting (i) on the same terms and conditions as the shares of Common Stock, if any, otherwise being sold through underwriters under such registration, or (ii) on terms and conditions comparable to those normally applicable to offerings of common stock in reasonably similar circumstances in the event that no Common Stock other than Registrable Securities are being sold through underwriters under such registration.
(d) Upon receipt of a written request pursuant to Section 3.5(b), the Corporation shall promptly use its best efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities to be registered under the Securities Act, to the extent required to permit sale or disposition as set forth in the written request.
3.6 Underwriting Requirements.
(a) If, pursuant to Section 3.4, the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Corporation as a part of their request made pursuant to Section 3.4, and the Corporation shall include such information in the Demand Notice. The underwriter(s) will be selected by the Corporation and shall be reasonably acceptable to the Initiating Holders holding a majority of the shares of the Corporation’s capital stock then held by all Initiating Holders (calculated on an as-converted basis). In such event, the right of any Holder to include such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Corporation) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter(s) selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.6, if the managing underwriters advise the Initiating Holders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Initiating Holders shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities that otherwise would be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated among such Holders of Registrable Securities, including the Initiating Holders, in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the number of Registrable Securities owned by each Holder or in such other proportion as shall mutually be agreed to by all such selling Holders; provided, however, that the number of Registrable Securities held by the Holders to be included in such
underwriting shall not be reduced unless all other securities are first entirely excluded from the underwriting.
(b) In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Corporation’s capital stock pursuant to Section 3.5, the Corporation shall not be required to include any of the Holders’ Registrable Securities in such underwriting unless the Holders accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Corporation and its underwriters, and then only in such quantity as the underwriters in their sole discretion determine will not jeopardize the success of the offering by the Corporation. If the managing underwriter(s) of any proposed registration under Section 3.5 determines and advises in writing that the inclusion of all Registrable Securities proposed to be included in the underwritten public offering, together with any other Common Stock proposed to be included therein by holders other than the Holders (such other shares hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Other Shares”) would interfere with the successful marketing of the Corporation’s securities, then the total number of such securities proposed to be included in such underwritten public offering shall be reduced, (i) first by the shares requested to be included in such registration by the holders of Other Shares, (ii) second, if necessary, by all Registrable Securities which are not Registrable Senior Securities and (iii) third, if necessary, so that (A) one-half (1/2) of the securities to be included consist of the securities proposed to be issued by the Corporation, and (B) one-half (1/2) of the securities to be included consist of the Registrable Senior Securities proposed to be included in such registration by the holders thereof, allocated among such Holders on a pro rata basis calculated based upon the number of Registrable Senior Securities sought to be registered by each such holder; provided, that the aggregate number of securities proposed to be included in such registration by the holders of Registrable Senior Securities shall only be reduced hereunder if and to the extent that such securities exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate number of securities included in such registration. The shares of Common Stock that are excluded from the underwritten public offering pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be withheld from the market by the holders thereof for a period, not to exceed 90 days from the closing of such underwritten public offering, that the managing underwriter reasonably determines as necessary in order to effect such underwritten public offering. For purposes of the provision in this Section 3.6(b) concerning apportionment, for any selling Holder that is a partnership, limited liability company, or corporation, the partners, members, retired partners, retired members, stockholders, and affiliates of such Holder, or the estates and Immediate Family Members of any such partners, retired partners, members, and retired members and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing Persons, shall be deemed to be a single “selling Holder,” and any pro rata reduction with respect to such “selling Holder” shall be based upon the aggregate number of Registrable Securities owned by all Persons included in such “selling Holder,” as defined in this sentence.
(c) For purposes of Section 3.4, a registration shall not be counted as “effected” if, as a result of an exercise of the underwriter’s cutback provisions in Section 3.6(a) or (b), fewer than fifty percent (50%) of the total number of Registrable Senior Securities that Holders have requested to be included in such registration statement are actually included.
3.7 Preparation and Filing. If and whenever the Corporation is under an obligation pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.4 and/or 3.5 to use its best efforts to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Corporation shall, as expeditiously as practicable:
(a) prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective in accordance with Section 3.7(b) hereof;
(b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to
keep such registration statement effective until the earlier of (i) the sale of all Registrable Securities covered thereby or (ii) nine months from the date such registration statement first becomes effective, and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the sale or other disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement;
(c) furnish to each holder whose Registrable Securities are being registered pursuant to this Section 3 such number of copies of any summary prospectus or other prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as such holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities;
(d) use its best efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as each holder whose Registrable Securities are being registered shall reasonably request, and do any and all other acts or things which may be necessary or advisable to enable such holder to consummate the public sale or other disposition in such jurisdictions of such Registrable Securities; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to consent to general service of process for all purposes in any jurisdiction where it is not then subject to process, qualify to do business as a foreign corporation where it would not be otherwise required to qualify or submit to liability for state or local taxes where it is not otherwise liable for such taxes;
(e) at any time when a prospectus covered by such registration statement and relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act within the appropriate period mentioned in Section 3.7(b) hereof, notify each holder whose Registrable Securities are being registered of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing and, at the request of such holder, prepare, file and furnish to such holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such shares, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing;
(f) if the Corporation has delivered preliminary or final prospectuses to the holders of Registrable Securities that are being registered and after having done so the prospectus is amended to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act, the Corporation shall promptly notify such holders and, if requested, such holders shall immediately cease making offers of Registrable Securities and return all prospectuses to the Corporation. The Corporation shall promptly provide such holders with revised prospectuses and, following receipt of the revised prospectuses, such holders shall be free to resume making offers of the Registrable Securities; and
(g) furnish, at the request of any holder whose Registrable Securities are being registered, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale in connection with a registration pursuant to this Agreement if such securities are being sold through underwriters, or on the date that the registration statement with respect to such securities becomes effective if such securities are not being sold through underwriters, (i) an opinion, dated such date, of the counsel representing the Corporation for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the holder or holders making such request, and (ii) a letter dated such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Corporation, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering,
addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the holder or holders making such request.
3.8 Expenses. The Corporation shall pay all expenses incurred by the Corporation in complying with this Section 3, including all registration and filing fees (including all expenses incident to filing with the FINRA), fees and expenses of complying with the securities and blue sky laws of all such jurisdictions in which the Registrable Securities are proposed to be offered and sold, printing expenses and fees and disbursements of counsel (including with respect to each registration effected pursuant to Sections 3.4 and 3.5, the reasonable fees and disbursements of a counsel for the holders of Registrable Securities that are being registered pursuant to this Section 3, such counsel for the holders of Registrable Securities shall be designated by a vote of the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be included in such registration); provided, however, that all underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the Registrable Securities covered by registrations effected pursuant to Section 3.4 or 3.5 hereof shall be borne by the seller or sellers thereof, in proportion to the number of Registrable Securities sold by each such seller or sellers.
3.9 Indemnification.
(a) In the event of any registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to this Section 3 or registration or qualification of any Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3.7(d) hereof, the Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless the seller of such shares, each underwriter of such shares, if any, each broker or any other person acting on behalf of such seller and each other person, if any, who controls any of the foregoing persons, within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incident to registration or qualification of any Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3.7(d) hereof or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or, with respect to any prospectus, necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or any violation by the Corporation of the Securities Act or any state securities or blue sky laws applicable to the Corporation and relating to action or inaction required of the Corporation in connection with such registration or qualification under the Securities Act or such state securities or blue sky laws. The Corporation shall reimburse on demand such seller, underwriter, broker or other person acting on behalf of such seller and each such controlling person for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in said registration statement, preliminary or final prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto or any document incident to registration or qualification of any Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3.7(d) hereof, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Corporation by such seller, underwriter, broker, other person or controlling person specifically for use in the preparation hereof.
(b) Before Registrable Securities held by any prospective seller shall be included in any registration pursuant to this Section 3, such prospective seller and any underwriter acting on its behalf shall have agreed to indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in paragraph (a)) the Corporation, each director of the Corporation, each officer of the Corporation who signs such registration statement and any person who controls the Corporation within
the meaning of the Securities Act, with respect to any untrue statement or omission from such registration statement, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, if such untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Corporation through an instrument duly executed by such seller or such underwriter specifically for use in the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or amendment or supplement; provided, however, that the maximum amount of liability in respect of such indemnification shall be limited, in the case of each prospective seller, to an amount equal to the net proceeds actually received by such prospective seller from the sale of Registrable Securities effected pursuant to such registration.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action involving a claim referred to in Section 3.9(a) or (b) hereof, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 3.9, give written notice to the latter of the commencement of such action. In case any such action is brought against an indemnified party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense thereof jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified to the extent that it may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice to such indemnified party from the indemnifying party of its election to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall be responsible for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnifying party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that, if any indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such indemnified party which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, or that such claim or litigation involves or could have an effect upon matters beyond the scope of the indemnity agreement provided in this Section 3.9, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party, and such indemnifying party shall reimburse such indemnified party and any person controlling such indemnified party for the fees and expenses of counsel retained by the indemnified party which are reasonably related to the matters covered by the indemnity agreement provided in this Section 3.9. The indemnifying party shall not make any settlement of any claims in respect of which it is obligated to indemnify an indemnified party or parties hereunder, without the written consent of the indemnified party or parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act, in any case in which either (i) any Holder exercising rights under this Agreement, or any controlling person of any such holder, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 3.9, but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 3.9 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any such holder or any such controlling person in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 3.9; then, in each such case, the Corporation and such holder will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Corporation and such holder in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, it being understood that the parties acknowledge that the overriding equitable consideration to be given effect in connection with this provision is the ability of one party or the other to correct the statement or omission which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, and that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant hereto were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into consideration the foregoing equitable considerations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no such holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the proceeds to it of all Registrable Securities sold by it pursuant to such registration statement, and (ii) no person or entity guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation, within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act, shall be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who is not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
(e) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, if, in connection with an underwritten public offering of any Registrable Securities, the Corporation, the holders of such Registrable Securities and the underwriters enter into an underwriting or purchase agreement relating to such offering which contains provisions covering indemnification among the parties, then the indemnification provision of this Section 3.9 shall be deemed inoperative for purposes of such offering.
3.10 Removal of Legends, Etc. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3, the restrictions imposed by this Section 3 upon the transferability of any Restricted Stock shall cease and terminate when (a) any such Restricted Stock are sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the intended method of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in a registration statement or such other method contemplated by Section 3 hereof that does not require that the securities transferred bear the legend set forth in Section 3.2 hereof, including a Transfer pursuant to Rule 144 or a successor rule thereof (as amended from time to lime), or (b) the holder of Restricted Stock has met the requirements for transfer of such Restricted Stock pursuant to subparagraph (b)(1) of Rule 144 or a successor rule thereof (as amended from time to time) promulgated by the Commission under the Securities Act. Whenever the restrictions imposed by this Section 3 have terminated, a holder of a certificate for Restricted Stock as to which such restrictions have terminated shall be entitled to receive from the Corporation, without expense, a new certificate not bearing the restrictive legend set forth in Section 3.2 hereof and not containing any other reference to the restrictions imposed by this Section 3.
3.11 Lock-up Agreement.
(a) In no event shall any Stockholder be permitted, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the date of the listing of the Common Stock on a national securities exchange, to sell, assign, transfer, make a short sale of, loan, or grant any option for the purchase of, any shares of Common Stock for a price that is less than $6.142 per share (subject to proportionate and equitable adjustment upon any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split or similar event affecting the Common Stock that becomes effective after the date of this Agreement) or any other shares of capital stock of the Company for an effective price that is less than $6.142 per share on an as-converted to Common Stock basis (subject to proportionate and equitable adjustment upon any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split or similar event affecting the Common Stock that becomes effective after the date of this Agreement), except (x) with the prior written consent of the Company or (y) to a member of such Stockholder’s Group.
(b) Each Stockholder agrees further that, if the Company or a managing underwriter so requests of such Stockholder in connection with a registered public offering of securities of the Company, such Stockholder will not, without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, sell, assign, transfer, make a short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or exercise registration rights with respect to any shares of Common Stock or shares of capital stock or other securities of the Corporation convertible into or exercisable for, whether directly or indirectly, shares of Common Stock, other than to a member of such Stockholder’s Group, during the period of (i)180 days following the closing of the first public offering of securities offered and sold for the account of the Corporation that is registered under the Securities Act, or (ii) 90 days following the closing of any other public offering of securities offered and sold for the account of the Corporation that is registered under the Securities Act; provided that such request is made of all officers, directors and 1% and greater Stockholders and each such person shall be similarly bound; and, provided, further, that nothing in this Section 3.11(c) shall prevent any Stockholder from participating in any registered public offering of the Corporation as a selling stockholder or security holder.
(c) In the event that the Corporation releases or causes to be released any Stockholder from any restrictions on transfer set forth in the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.11, the Corporation shall release or cause to be released all other Stockholders in similar fashion and any such release of all Stockholders shall be implemented on a pro rata basis.
3.12 Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Corporation to take any action pursuant to this Section 3 with respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish to the Corporation such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as is reasonably required to effect the registration of such Holder’s Registrable Securities.
3.13 Termination of Registration Rights. The right of any Holder to request registration or inclusion of Registrable Securities in any registration pursuant to this Section 3 shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of: (a) such time as Rule 144 or another similar exemption under the Securities Act is available for the sale of all of such Holder’s shares without volume, manner of sale or other limitation during a three-month period without registration; and (b) the Expiration Date.
SECTION 4. Approval of Certain Matters; Election of Directors.
4.1 Approval of Certain Issuances and Charter Amendment. Each Stockholder shall, as directed from time to time by the Corporation, in his, her or its capacity as a holder of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, Series A-2 Preferred Stock and/or Series A-3 Preferred Stock (and all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof), (i) approve of, pursuant to Section 7(e)(ii)(g) of the Series A-1 Certificate, the issuance of any shares of Common Stock (as such term is used in Section 7(e)(i) of the Series A-1 Certificate) or other securities of the Corporation for a consideration per share equal to or greater than $6.142 (subject to proportionate and equitable adjustment upon any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split or similar event affecting the Common Stock that becomes effective after the date of this Agreement) (a “Specified Issuance”), with such approval expressly waiving the application of the anti-dilution provisions of Section 7 of the Series A-1 Certificate as a result of such Specified Issuance and (ii) approve an amendment (the “Charter Amendment”) to the Series A-1 Certificate to state as the Conversion Price (as defined in the Series A-1 Certificate) of each of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, Series A-2 Preferred Stock and Series A-3 Preferred Stock, the adjusted Conversion Price of each such series (the “Adjusted Conversion Price”) after giving effect to the adjustment contemplated by (x) Section 7(e) of the Series A-1 Certificate as a result of the issuance of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock and Warrants issued pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement and (y) the terms of the following sentence. The Charter Amendment shall state the Adjusted Conversion Price as it would be calculated assuming that the issuances of all shares of Series B Preferred Stock and Warrants issued pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement occurred on the date of the first such issuance (and without giving effect to any additional adjustments as a result of any such subsequent issuances under the Stock Purchase Agreement). In connection with any Specified Issuance, the Corporation shall give written instructions to each Series A-1 Stockholder, Series A-2 Stockholder and Series A-3 Stockholder directing such holder to approve such Specified Issuance in the manner described in this Section 4.1.
4.2 Voting for Directors. At the first annual meeting of the Stockholders of the Corporation after the Initial Closing (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement), and thereafter at each annual meeting and each special meeting of the Stockholders of the Corporation called for the purposes of electing directors of the Corporation, and at any time at which Stockholders of the Corporation shall have the right to, or shall, vote or consent to the election of directors, then, in each such event, each Stockholder shall vote all shares of Preferred Stock, Common Stock and any other shares of voting stock of the Corporation then owned (or controlled as to voting rights) by it, him or her,

provide to the G3 Observer all materials provided to the members of the Board and notice of such meetings, all in the manner and at the time provided to the members of the Board; provided, however, that the Corporation reserves the right to exclude such representatives from access to any material or meeting or portion thereof if the Corporation believes upon advice of counsel that such exclusion is necessary to preserve the attorney-client privilege or to protect highly confidential information, the disclosure of which should not be made to any person who does not have a fiduciary or other similar duty to the Corporation. The decision of the Board with respect to the privileged or confidential nature of such information shall be final and binding. The rights of each G3 Investor under this Section 4.3(a) may only be assigned in connection with the transfer of all of the Preferred Stock held by such G3 Investor to the assignee. In addition and without limiting the foregoing, in the event that the Majority G3 Investors appoint any person to be the G3 Observer under this Section 4.3(a) who, in the good faith determination of the Board, has conflicting interests with the Corporation, then the Corporation shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to exclude the G3 Observer from access to any meeting, or any portion thereof, and/or deny the G3 Observer access to any information and documents, or any portions thereof.
(b) In the event that the Board approves the grant of the rights contained herein to a purchaser of shares of Series B Stock under the Purchase Agreement after the date hereof (any such purchaser with respect to whom the Board has approved the granting of such rights, the “Extra Purchaser”), upon such Extra Purchaser becoming a party hereto and a Stockholder hereunder, such Extra Purchaser shall have the right to appoint an observer to the Board (the “Extra Observer”) as long as such Extra Purchaser holds greater than seventy five percent (75%) of the Series B Preferred Stock originally purchased by such purchaser pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement. The Extra Observer shall have the right to attend all meetings of the Board in a non-voting observer capacity, and the Corporation shall provide to the Extra Observer all materials provided to the members of the Board and notice of such meetings, all in the manner and at the time provided to the members of the Board; provided, however, that the Corporation reserves the right to exclude such representatives from access to any material or meeting or portion thereof if the Corporation believes upon advice of counsel that such exclusion is necessary to preserve the attorney-client privilege or to protect highly confidential information, the disclosure of which should not be made to any person who does not have a fiduciary or other similar duty to the Corporation. The decision of the Board with respect to the privileged or confidential nature of such information shall be final and binding. The Extra Purchaser’s rights under this Section 4.3(b) may only be assigned in connection with the transfer of all of the Preferred Stock held by the Extra Purchaser to the assignee.

designated by the Series B Stockholders, the Series A-1 Stockholders and MPM, as applicable, shall be renominated.
4.6 Removal. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5, no Stockholder shall vote to remove any member of the Board designated in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 4 unless the party or group of stockholders, as applicable, who designated such director (the “Designating Party”) shall so vote or otherwise consent, and, if the Designating Party shall so vote or otherwise consent, then the non-designating Stockholders shall likewise so vote. Any vacancy on the Board created by the resignation, removal, incapacity or death of any person designated under the foregoing provisions of this Section 4 may be filled by another person designated by the original Designating Party. Each Stockholder shall vote all shares of voting stock of the Corporation owned or controlled by such Stockholder in accordance with each such new designation.

Prior to such termination, the rights and obligations of any Preferred Stockholder under this Section 4 shall terminate upon the date on which such Preferred Stockholder or its Group no longer owns any Preferred Stock, whereupon the obligations of the remaining Stockholders to vote in favor of the designee of such Preferred Stockholder shall also terminate.
SECTION 5. Indemnification.
5.1 Indemnification of Investors. In the event that any Preferred Stockholder or any director, officer, employee, affiliate or agent thereof (the “Indemnitees”), become involved in any capacity in any action, proceeding, investigation or inquiry in connection with or arising out of any matter related to the Corporation or any Indemnitee’s role or position with the Corporation, the Corporation shall reimburse each Indemnitee for its legal and other expenses (including the cost of any investigation and preparation) as they are incurred by such Indemnitee in connection therewith. The Corporation also agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee, pay on demand and protect, defend, save and hold harmless from and against any and all liabilities, damages, losses, settlements, claims, actions, suits, penalties, fines, costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) (any of the foregoing, a “Claim”) incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee of whatever kind or nature, arising from, in connection with or occurring as a result of this Agreement or the matters contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to indemnify any Indemnitee hereunder in connection with any matter as to which a court of competent jurisdiction has made a final non-appealable determination that such Indemnitee has acted with gross negligence or willful or intentional misconduct in connection therewith. The foregoing agreement shall be in addition to any rights that any Indemnitee may have at common law or otherwise.
5.2 Advancement of Expenses. The Corporation shall advance all expenses reasonably incurred by or on behalf of the Indemnitees in connection with any Claim or potential Claim within twenty (20) days after the receipt by the Corporation of a statement or statements from the Indemnitee requesting such advance payment or payments from time to time.
SECTION 6. Remedies. In case any one or more of the covenants and/or agreements set forth in this Agreement shall have been breached by any party hereto, the party or parties entitled to the benefit of such covenants or agreements may proceed to protect and enforce its or their rights, either by suit in equity and/or action at law, including, but not limited to, an action for damages as a result of any such breach and/or an action for specific performance of any such covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement. The rights, powers and remedies of the parties under this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any other right, power or remedy which such parties may have under any other agreement or law. No single or partial assertion or exercise of any right, power or remedy of a party hereunder shall preclude any other or further assertion or exercise thereof.
SECTION 7. Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Corporation and each of the Stockholder parties hereto and the respective successors and permitted assigns of the Corporation and each of the Stockholder parties hereto (including any member of a Stockholder’s Group). Subject to the requirements of Section 3 hereof, this Agreement and the rights and duties of the any Stockholder set forth herein may be freely assigned, in whole or in part, by such Stockholder to any member of their respective Group, provided such transferee is an “affiliate” of such Stockholder, as the case may be, as such term is defined under Rule 501 of the Securities Act (it being recognized and agreed that each member of the Oxford/Saints Group shall be deemed to be “affiliates” of each other for this purpose). Subject to the requirements of Section 3 hereof, the rights under this Agreement may be assigned (but only with related obligations) by a Holder to a transferee of Registrable Securities that, after such transfer, holds at least 100,000 shares of Registrable Securities (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and other recapitalizations). For the purposes of determining the number of shares of Registrable Securities held by a transferee, the holdings of a transferee (a) that is an affiliate or stockholder of a Holder; (b) who is a Holder’s Immediate Family Member; or (c) that is a trust for the benefit of an individual Holder or such Holder’s Immediate Family Member shall be aggregated together and with those of the transferring Holder; provided further that all transferees who would not qualify individually for assignment of rights shall have a single attorney-in-fact for the purpose of exercising any rights, receiving notices, or taking any action under this Agreement. Any transferee from a Stockholder to whom rights under Section 3 are transferred shall, as a condition to such transfer, deliver to the Corporation a written instrument by which such transferee identifies itself (together with its address), gives the Corporation notice of the transfer of such rights, identifies the securities of the Corporation owned or acquired by it and agrees to be bound by the obligations imposed hereunder to the same extent as if such transferee were a Stockholder hereunder. A transferee to whom rights are transferred pursuant to this Section 6 will be thereafter deemed to be a Stockholder for the purpose of the execution of such transferred rights and may not again transfer such rights to any other person or entity, other than as provided in this Section 7. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and permitted assignees any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided herein.
SECTION 8. Duration of Agreement. The rights and obligations of the Corporation and each Stockholder set forth herein shall survive indefinitely, unless and until, by the respective terms of this Agreement, they are no longer applicable.
SECTION 9. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other writings referred to
herein or delivered pursuant hereto which form a part hereof, contains the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and amends, restates and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous arrangements or understandings with respect thereto, including the Prior Agreement.

SECTION 11. Changes. The terms and provisions of this Agreement may not be modified or amended, or any of the provisions hereof waived, temporarily or permanently, except pursuant to the written consent of the Corporation and the Majority Investors, and to the extent that there is a material adverse effect of any such modification or amendment on the rights and obligations of the holders of shares of Series A-4 Preferred Stock, Series A-5 Preferred Stock or Series A-6 Preferred Stock, respectively, in a manner more adverse than such effect on the holders of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, Series A-2 Preferred Stock or Series A-3 Preferred Stock, respectively, a majority in combined voting power of the such more affected series then outstanding, determined in accordance with Section 6(a) of the Series A-1 Certificate. Additional parties who become parties to this Agreement pursuant to an
instrument of adherence will not constitute a change under this Section 11. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) any modification or amendment to this Agreement that would adversely affect one Series B Stockholder, Series A-1 Stockholder, Series A-2 Stockholder or Series A-3 Stockholder in a manner that is directed specifically to such Series B Stockholder, Series A-1 Stockholder, Series A-2 Stockholder or Series A-3 Stockholder, rather than to all Series B Stockholders, Series A-1 Stockholders, Series A-2 Stockholders and Series A-3 Stockholders, shall be subject to the approval of each such Series B Stockholder, Series A-1 Stockholder, Series A-2 Stockholder or Series A-3 Stockholder, as applicable, (b) any modification or amendment to Section 2.11 hereof shall be subject to the further approval of F2 Biosciences, Wellcome, at least one member of HCV Group, one member of the MPM Group, one member of the Brookside Group, one member of the BB Bio Group, and one member of the Oxford/Saints Group, (c) any modification to Section 4.2(b)(i) shall be subject to the further approval of Stockholders holding a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, (d) any modification to Section 4.2(b)(ii) shall be subject to the further approval of Stockholders holding a majority of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, (e) any modification to Section 4.2(b)(iii) shall be subject to the further approval of at least one member of the MPM Group, (f) any modification to Section 4.3(a) shall be subject to the further approval of the Majority G3 Investors and (g) any modification to Section 4.3(b) shall be subject to the further approval of the Extra Purchaser, if any. It is understood that any separate consent required pursuant to the foregoing clauses (a) - (g) would not be required if any such adverse effect results from the application of criteria uniformly to all Stockholders even if such application may affect Stockholders differently.
SECTION 12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each such counterpart shall be deemed to be an original instrument and all such counterparts together shall constitute but one agreement.

Exhibit D
Form of Indemnification Agreement
INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT
THIS INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of [ · ], between Radius Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and [ · ] (“Indemnitee”).
WITNESSETH THAT:
WHEREAS, highly competent persons have become more reluctant to serve corporations as directors or in other capacities unless they are provided with adequate protection through insurance or adequate indemnification against inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising out of their service to and activities on behalf of the corporation;
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that, in order to attract and retain qualified individuals, the Company will attempt to maintain on an ongoing basis, at its sole expense, liability insurance to protect persons serving the Company and its subsidiaries from certain liabilities. Although the furnishing of such insurance has been a customary and widespread practice among United States-based corporations and other business enterprises, the Company believes that, given current market conditions and trends, such insurance may be available to it in the future only at higher premiums and with more exclusions. At the same time, directors, officers, and other persons in service to corporations or business enterprises are being increasingly subjected to expensive and time-consuming litigation relating to, among other things, matters that traditionally would have been brought only against the Company or business enterprise itself. The Bylaws and Certificate of Incorporation of the Company require indemnification of the officers and directors of the Company. Indemnitee may also be entitled to indemnification pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (“DGCL”). The Bylaws, Certificate of Incorporation and the DGCL expressly provide that the indemnification provisions set forth therein are not exclusive, and thereby contemplate that contracts may be entered into between the Company and members of the board of directors, officers and other persons with respect to indemnification;
WHEREAS, the uncertainties relating to such insurance and to indemnification have increased the difficulty of attracting and retaining such persons;
WHEREAS, the Board has determined that the increased difficulty in attracting and retaining such persons is detrimental to the best interests of the Company’s stockholders and that the Company should act to assure such persons that there will be increased certainty of such protection in the future;
WHEREAS, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company contractually to obligate itself to indemnify, and to advance expenses on behalf of, such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that they will serve or continue to serve the Company free from undue concern that they will not be so indemnified;
WHEREAS, this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Bylaws and Certificate of Incorporation of the Company and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto, and shall not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder; and
WHEREAS, Indemnitee does not regard the protection available under the Company’s Bylaws and Certificate of Incorporation and insurance as adequate in the present circumstances, and may not be willing to serve as a director without adequate protection, and the Company desires Indemnitee to serve in such capacity. Indemnitee is willing to serve, continue to serve and to take on additional service for or on behalf of the Company on the condition that he be so indemnified; and
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of Indemnitee’s agreement to serve as a director from and after the date hereof, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Indemnity of Indemnitee. The Company hereby agrees to hold harmless and indemnify Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law, as such may be amended from time to time. In furtherance of the foregoing indemnification, and without limiting the generality thereof:
(a) Proceedings Other Than Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this Section l(a) if, by reason of his Corporate Status (as hereinafter defined), the Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding (as hereinafter defined) other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company. Pursuant to this Section 1(a), Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses (as hereinafter defined), judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him, or on his behalf, in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and with respect to any criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.
(b) Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this Section 1(b) if, by reason of his Corporate Status, the Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding brought by or in the right of the Company. Pursuant to this Section 1(b), Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee, or on the Indemnitee’s behalf, in connection with such Proceeding if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company; provided, however, if applicable law so provides, no indemnification against such Expenses shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter in such Proceeding as to which Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company unless and to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall determine that such indemnification may be made.
(c) Indemnification for Expenses of a Party Who is Wholly or Partly Successful. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his Corporate Status, a party to and is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any Proceeding, he shall be indemnified to the maximum extent permitted by law, as such may be amended from time to time, against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with
each successfully resolved claim, issue or matter. For purposes of this Section and without limitation, the termination of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be deemed to be a successful result as to such claim, issue or matter.
2. Additional Indemnity. In addition to, and without regard to any limitations on, the indemnification provided for in Section 1 of this Agreement, the Company shall and hereby does indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitee against all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf if, by reason of his Corporate Status, he is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding (including a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company), including, without limitation, all liability arising out of the negligence or active or passive wrongdoing of Indemnitee. The only limitation that shall exist upon the Company’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement shall be that the Company shall not be obligated to make any payment to Indemnitee that is finally determined (under the procedures, and subject to the presumptions, set forth in Sections 6 and 7 hereof) to be unlawful.
3. Contribution.
(a) Whether or not the indemnification provided in Sections 1 and 2 hereof is available, in respect of any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), the Company shall pay, in the first instance, the entire amount of any judgment or settlement of such action, suit or proceeding without requiring Indemnitee to contribute to such payment and the Company hereby waives and relinquishes any right of contribution it may have against Indemnitee. The Company shall not enter into any settlement of any action, suit or proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding) unless such settlement provides for a full and final release of all claims asserted against Indemnitee.
(b) Without diminishing or impairing the obligations of the Company set forth in the preceding subparagraph, if, for any reason, Indemnitee shall elect or be required to pay all or any portion of any judgment or settlement in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), the Company shall contribute to the amount of Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred and paid or payable by Indemnitee in proportion to the relative benefits received by the Company and all officers, directors or employees of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, from the transaction from which such action, suit or proceeding arose; provided, however, that the proportion determined on the basis of relative benefit may, to the extent necessary to conform to law, be further adjusted by reference to the relative fault of the Company and all officers, directors or employees of the Company other than Indemnitee who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, in connection with the events that resulted in such expenses, judgments, fines or settlement amounts, as well as any other equitable considerations which the Law may require to be considered. The relative fault of the Company and all officers, directors or employees of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, the degree to which their actions were motivated by intent to gain personal profit or advantage, the degree to which their liability is primary or secondary and the degree to which their conduct is active or passive.
(c) The Company hereby agrees to fully indemnify and hold Indemnitee harmless from any claims of contribution which may be brought by officers, directors or employees of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who may be jointly liable with Indemnitee.
(d) To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, if the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is unavailable to Indemnitee for any reason whatsoever, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount incurred by Indemnitee, whether for judgments, fines, penalties, excise taxes, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement and/or for Expenses, in connection with any claim relating to an indemnifiable event under this Agreement, in such proportion as is deemed fair and reasonable in light of all of the circumstances of such Proceeding in order to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the Company and Indemnitee as a result of the event(s) and/or transaction(s) giving cause to such Proceeding; and/or (ii) the relative fault of the Company (and its directors, officers, employees and agents) and Indemnitee in connection with such event(s) and/or transaction(s).
4. Indemnification for Expenses of a Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his Corporate Status, a witness, or is made (or asked to) respond to discovery requests, in any Proceeding to which Indemnitee is not a party, he shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection therewith.
5. Advancement of Expenses. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall advance all Expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status within thirty (30) days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements from Indemnitee requesting such advance or advances from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of such Proceeding. Such statement or statements shall reasonably evidence the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee and shall include or be preceded or accompanied by a written undertaking by or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay any Expenses advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified against such Expenses. Any advances and undertakings to repay pursuant to this Section 5 shall be unsecured and interest free.
6. Procedures and Presumptions for Determination of Entitlement to Indemnification. It is the intent of this Agreement to secure for Indemnitee rights of indemnity that are as favorable as may be permitted under the DGCL and public policy of the State of Delaware. Accordingly, the parties agree that the following procedures and presumptions shall apply in the event of any question as to whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement:
(a) To obtain indemnification under this Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification. The Secretary of the Company shall, promptly upon receipt of such a request for indemnification, advise the Board of
Directors in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any failure of Indemnitee to provide such a request to the Company, or to provide such a request in a timely fashion, shall not relieve the Company of any liability that it may have to Indemnitee unless, and to the extent that, such failure actually and materially prejudices the interests of the Company.
(b) Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to the first sentence of Section 6(a) hereof, a determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto shall be made in the specific case by one of the following four methods, which shall be at the election of the board: (1) by a majority vote of the disinterested directors, even though less than a quorum, (2) by a committee of disinterested directors designated by a majority vote of the disinterested directors, even though less than a quorum, (3) if there are no disinterested directors or if the disinterested directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion to the Board of Directors, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Indemnitee, or (4) if so directed by the Board of Directors, by the stockholders of the Company. For purposes hereof, disinterested directors are those members of the board of directors of the Company who are not parties to the action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification is sought by Indemnitee.
(c) If the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof, the Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 6(c). The Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board of Directors. Indemnitee may, within 10 days after such written notice of selection shall have been given, deliver to the Company a written objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 13 of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If a written objection is made and substantiated, the Independent Counsel selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court has determined that such objection is without merit. If, within 20 days after submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 6(a) hereof, no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or other court of competent jurisdiction for resolution of any objection which shall have been made by the Indemnitee to the Company’s selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by the court or by such other person as the court shall designate, and the person with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 6(b) hereof. The Company shall pay any and all reasonable fees and expenses of Independent Counsel incurred by such Independent Counsel in connection with acting pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof, and the Company shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses incident to the procedures of this Section 6(c), regardless of the manner in which such Independent Counsel was selected or appointed.
(d) In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person or persons or entity making such determination shall presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence. Neither the failure of the Company (including by its directors or
independent legal counsel) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any action pursuant to this Agreement that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Company (including by its directors or independent legal counsel) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct.
(e) Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if Indemnitee’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Enterprise, including financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the officers of the Enterprise (as hereinafter defined) in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Enterprise. In addition, the knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any director, officer, agent or employee of the Enterprise shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under this Agreement. Whether or not the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e) are satisfied, it shall in any event be presumed that Indemnitee has at all times acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence.
(f) If the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 6 to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification shall not have made a determination within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Company of the request therefor, the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification shall be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such indemnification absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law; provided, however, that such 60-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional thirty (30) days, if the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith requires such additional time to obtain or evaluate documentation and/or information relating thereto; and provided, further, that the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(f) shall not apply if the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by the stockholders pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement and if (A) within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Company of the request for such determination, the Board of Directors or the Disinterested Directors, if appropriate, resolve to submit such determination to the stockholders for their consideration at an annual meeting thereof to be held within seventy-five (75) days after such receipt and such determination is made thereat, or (B) a special meeting of stockholders is called within fifteen (15) days after such receipt for the purpose of making such determination, such meeting is held for such purpose within sixty (60) days after having been so called and such determination is made thereat.
(g) Indemnitee shall cooperate with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any Independent Counsel, member of the Board of Directors or stockholder of the Company
shall act reasonably and in good faith in making a determination regarding the Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification under this Agreement. Any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification) and the Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom.
(h) The Company acknowledges that a settlement or other disposition short of final judgment may be successful if it permits a party to avoid expense, delay, distraction, disruption and uncertainty. In the event that any action, claim or proceeding to which Indemnitee is a party is resolved in any manner other than by adverse judgment against Indemnitee (including, without limitation, settlement of such action, claim or proceeding with or without payment of money or other consideration) it shall be presumed that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in such action, suit or proceeding. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence.
(i) The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
7. Remedies of Indemnitee.
(a) In the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement, (iii) no determination of entitlement to indemnification is made pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement within 90 days after receipt by the Company of the request for indemnification, (iv) payment of indemnification is not made pursuant to this Agreement within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor or (v) payment of indemnification is not made within ten (10) days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or such determination is deemed to have been made pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication in an appropriate court of the State of Delaware, or in any other court of competent jurisdiction, of Indemnitee’s entitlement to such indemnification. Indemnitee shall commence such proceeding seeking an adjudication within 180 days following the date on which Indemnitee first has the right to commence such proceeding pursuant to this Section 7(a). The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication.
(b) In the event that a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial on the merits, and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of the adverse determination under Section 6(b).
(c) If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s misstatement not materially misleading in connection with the application for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law.
(d) In the event that Indemnitee, pursuant to this Section 7, seeks a judicial adjudication of his rights under, or to recover damages for breach of, this Agreement, or to recover under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, the Company shall pay on his behalf, in advance, any and all expenses (of the types described in the definition of Expenses in Section 13 of this Agreement) actually and reasonably incurred by him in such judicial adjudication, regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification, advancement of expenses or insurance recovery.
(e) The Company shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7 that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against any and all Expenses and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall (within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefore) advance, to the extent not prohibited by law, such expenses to Indemnitee, which are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any action brought by Indemnitee for indemnification or advance of Expenses from the Company under this Agreement or under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification, advancement of Expenses or insurance recovery, as the case may be.
(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no determination as to entitlement to indemnification under this Agreement shall be required to be made prior to the final disposition of the Proceeding.
8. Non-Exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Insurance; Primacy of Indemnification; Subrogation.
(a) The rights of indemnification as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, any agreement, a vote of stockholders, a resolution of directors or otherwise, of the Company. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in his Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent that a change in the DGCL, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification than would be afforded currently under the Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws and this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change. No right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or
otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy.
(b) To the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, employees, or agents or fiduciaries of the Company or of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise that such person serves at the request of the Company, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary under such policy or policies. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company has director and officer liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies.
(c) In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights.
(d) Except as provided in paragraph (c) above, the Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder if and to the extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.
(e) Except as provided in paragraph (c) above, the Company’s obligation to indemnify or advance Expenses hereunder to Indemnitee who is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise shall be reduced by any amount Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification or advancement of expenses from such other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise.
9. Exception to Right of Indemnification. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated under this Agreement to make any indemnity in connection with any claim made against Indemnitee:
(a) for which payment has actually been made to or on behalf of Indemnitee under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision, except with respect to any excess beyond the amount paid under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision; or
(b) for an accounting of profits made from the purchase and sale (or sale and purchase) by Indemnitee of securities of the Company within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or similar provisions of state statutory law or common law; or
(c) in connection with any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee, including any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee against the Company or its directors, officers, employees or other indemnitees, unless (i) the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) prior to its initiation or (ii) the Company provides the indemnification, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the Company under applicable law.
10. Duration of Agreement. All agreements and obligations of the Company contained herein shall continue during the period Indemnitee is an officer or director of the Company (or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise) and shall continue thereafter so long as Indemnitee shall be subject to any Proceeding (or any proceeding commenced under Section 7 hereof) by reason of his Corporate Status, whether or not he is acting or serving in any such capacity at the time any liability or expense is incurred for which indemnification can be provided under this Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company), assigns, spouses, heirs, executors and personal and legal representatives.
11. Security. To the extent requested by Indemnitee and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, the Company may at any time and from time to time provide security to Indemnitee for the Company’s obligations hereunder through an irrevocable bank line of credit, funded trust or other collateral. Any such security, once provided to Indemnitee, may not be revoked or released without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee.
12. Enforcement.
(a) The Company expressly confirms and agrees that it has entered into this Agreement and assumes the obligations imposed on it hereby in order to induce Indemnitee to serve as an officer or director of the Company, and the Company acknowledges that Indemnitee is relying upon this Agreement in serving as an officer or director of the Company.
(b) This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral, written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.
13. Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement:
(a) “Corporate Status” describes the status of a person who is or was a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the Company or of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise that such person is or was serving at the express written request of the Company.
(b) “Disinterested Director” means a director of the Company who is not and was not a party to the Proceeding in respect of which indemnification is sought by Indemnitee.
(c) “Enterprise” shall mean the Company and any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise that Indemnitee is or was serving at the express written request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary.
(d) “Expenses” shall include all reasonable attorneys’ fees, retainers, court costs, transcript costs, fees of experts, witness fees, travel expenses, duplicating costs, printing and binding costs, telephone charges, postage, delivery service fees and all other disbursements or expenses of the types customarily incurred in connection with prosecuting, defending, preparing to prosecute or defend, investigating, participating, or being or preparing to be a witness in a Proceeding, or responding to, or objecting to, a request to provide discovery in any Proceeding. Expenses also shall include Expenses incurred in connection with any appeal resulting from any Proceeding and any federal, state, local or foreign taxes imposed on the Indemnitee as a result of the actual or deemed receipt of any payments under this Agreement, including without limitation the premium, security for, and other costs relating to any cost bond, supersede as bond, or other appeal bond or its equivalent. Expenses, however, shall not include amounts paid in settlement by Indemnitee or the amount of judgments or fines against Indemnitee.
(e) “Independent Counsel” means a law firm, or a member of a law firm, that is experienced in matters of corporation law and neither presently is, nor in the past five years has been, retained to represent: (i) the Company or Indemnitee in any matter material to either such party (other than with respect to matters concerning Indemnitee under this Agreement, or of other indemnitees under similar indemnification agreements), or (ii) any other party to the Proceeding giving rise to a claim for indemnification hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Independent Counsel” shall not include any person who, under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, would have a conflict of interest in representing either the Company or Indemnitee in an action to determine Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement. The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees of the Independent Counsel referred to above and to fully indemnify such counsel against any and all Expenses, claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its engagement pursuant hereto.
(f) “Proceeding” includes any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, arbitration, alternate dispute resolution mechanism, investigation, inquiry, administrative hearing or any other actual, threatened or completed proceeding, whether brought by or in the right of the Company or otherwise and whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which Indemnitee was, is or will be involved as a party or otherwise, by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was an officer or director of the Company, by reason of any action taken by him or of any inaction on his part while acting as an officer or director of the Company, or by reason of the fact that he is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other Enterprise; in each case whether or not he is acting or serving in any such capacity at the time any liability or expense is incurred for which indemnification can be provided under this Agreement; including one pending on or before the date of this Agreement, but excluding one initiated by an Indemnitee pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement to enforce his rights under this Agreement.
14. Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement is intended to confer upon Indemnitee indemnification rights to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws. In the event any provision hereof conflicts with any applicable law, such provision shall be deemed modified, consistent with the aforementioned intent, to the extent necessary to resolve such conflict.
15. Modification and Waiver. No supplement, modification, termination or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by both of the parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or not similar) nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver.
16. Notice By Indemnitee. Indemnitee agrees promptly to notify the Company in writing upon being served with or otherwise receiving any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information or other document relating to any Proceeding or matter which may be subject to indemnification covered hereunder. The failure to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of any obligation which it may have to Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise unless and only to the extent that such failure or delay materially prejudices the Company.
17. Notices. All notices and other communications given or made pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (b) when sent by confirmed electronic mail or facsimile if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and if not so confirmed, then on the next business day, (c) five (5) days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (d) one (1) day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of receipt.

or to such other address as may have been furnished to Indemnitee by the Company or to the Company by Indemnitee, as the case may be.
18. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. This Agreement may also be executed and delivered by 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.
19. Headings. The headings of the paragraphs of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this Agreement or to affect the construction thereof.
20. Governing Law and Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement and the legal relations among the parties shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. The Company and Indemnitee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agree that any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be brought only in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Court”), and not in any other state or federal court in the United States of America or any court in any other country, (ii) consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court for purposes of any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, (iii) waive any objection to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in the Delaware Court, and (iv) waive, and agree not to plead or to make, any claim that any such action or proceeding brought in the Delaware Court has been brought in an improper or inconvenient forum.
