3. | RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER; INVESTOR PARTICIPATION IN SALES |
3.1 Restrictions on Transfer by Stockholders. The Stockholders hereby agree to the provisions set forth in this Article 3 with respect to any sale, transfer or other disposition of Shares, in the event such sale, transfer or disposition is allowed pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof.
3.2 Non-Complying Transfers Prohibited. Each Stockholder understands that he may not sell, assign, transfer, exchange, gift, devise, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise alienate or dispose of any Shares, or any right or interest therein, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, except in accordance with this Agreement. Any such purported transfer in violation of any provision of this Agreement and all actions by the purported transferor and transferee in connection therewith shall be of no force or effect. The Company shall not recognize such purported transfer for any purpose, including, without limitation, for the purposes of dividend and voting rights. If any transfer of Shares is made or attempted contrary to the provisions of this Agreement or if any Shares are not offered as required by this Agreement, the Company or the other holders of Shares of the Company shall have the right to purchase such Shares from each such transferring Stockholder or each such transferee at any time before or after each such purported transfer, as hereinafter provided. In addition to any other legal or equitable remedies the Company or such other holders may have, the Company and such other holders may enforce this right by actions for specific performance, to the extent permitted by law.
3.3 Rights of First Refusal on Voluntary Transfers.
(a) Right of First Refusal of the Company. Except as otherwise provided herein, any Stockholder who intends to sell, assign, transfer or otherwise voluntarily alienate or dispose of any Shares in one transaction or a series of related transactions (the “Selling Stockholder”) shall, prior to any such transfer, give written notice (the “Selling Stockholder’s Notice”) of such intention to the Company and to the Investors. The Selling Stockholder’s Notice shall include the name of the proposed transferee, the proposed purchase price per Share, the terms of payment of such purchase price and all other matters relating to such sale and shall be accompanied by a copy of a binding written agreement of the proposed transferee to purchase such Shares from the Selling Stockholder. The Selling Stockholder’s Notice shall constitute a binding offer by the Selling Stockholder to sell to the Company or its designee all or any part of such number of Shares (the “Offered Shares”) then owned by the Selling Stockholder as are proposed to be sold in the Selling Stockholder’s Notice at the monetary price per Share designated in the Selling Stockholder’s Notice, payable as provided in Section 3.3(c). Not later than twenty (20) days after receipt of the Selling Stockholder’s Notice, the Company shall deliver written notice to the Selling Stockholder stating whether the Company has accepted the offer stated in the Selling Stockholder’s Notice (in whole or in part); provided, however, that the
5
Company shall not accept such offer without the prior approval of Company’s Board of Directors (including each of the Series H Directors (as hereinafter defined)). The closing of any purchase of the Offered Shares by the Company shall take place on the later of (i) fifteen (15) days after the end of the twenty (20) day period set forth above and (ii) the date on which the Investors consummate any purchase of Offered Shares pursuant to Section 3.3(b) below. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company may accept the offer stated in the Selling Stockholder’s Notice without the prior approval of the Company’s Board of Directors as required by this Section 3.3(a) in the event that the Company has not purchased in excess of fifty thousand (50,000) Shares pursuant to this Section 3.3(a) (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and similar recapitalization events) during any twelve (12) month period.
(b) Right of First Refusal of the Investors. If the Company does not accept the offer to purchase all of the Offered Shares within the twenty (20) day period provided in Section 3.3(a), no later than the end of such twenty (20) day period the Company shall give notice (the “Company Notice”) of that fact to each Investor and each Investor shall have the right to purchase all or any part of its Proportionate Percentage (as defined below) of the Offered Shares not purchased by the Company or its designee (the “Remaining Shares”), at the monetary price per Share designated in the Selling Stockholder’s Notice, payable as provided in Section 3.3(c). Not later than fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Company Notice, each Investor shall deliver to the Company, the other Investors and the Selling Stockholder a written notice stating whether such Investor has accepted the offer stated in the Selling Stockholder’s Notice with respect to its Proportionate Percentage of the Remaining Shares. If one (1) or more of the Investors elects not to purchase all of the Remaining Shares which it is entitled to purchase pursuant to this Section 3.3(b), the other Investors, by written notice to the Company and the Selling Stockholder within five (5) days after the end of the fifteen (15) day period set forth above, may elect to purchase all or a part of such unpurchased Remaining Shares without the consent of any non-purchasing Investors, pro rata between or among them or in such other manner as they may agree. The closing of any purchase of the Remaining Shares by the Investors shall take place no later than fifteen (15) days after the end of the fifteen (15) day period set forth above. As used in this Section 3.3(b), “Proportionate Percentage” shall mean with respect to each Investor a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Shares owned by such Investor (calculated on a fully diluted basis), and the denominator of which is the total number of Shares owned by all Investors (calculated on a fully diluted basis).
(c) Closing. The place for the closing of any purchase and sale described in Section 3.3(a) or Section 3.3(b) shall be the principal office of the Company or at such other place as the parties shall agree. At the closing, the Selling Stockholder shall accept payment on the terms (including price) offered by the proposed transferee named in the Selling Stockholder’s Notice, provided, however, that the Company and the Investors shall not be required to meet any non-monetary terms of the proposed transfer, including, without limitation, delivery of consideration in the form of other securities in exchange for the Shares proposed to be sold. At the closing, the Selling Stockholder shall deliver to the Company or the Investors, as the case may be, in exchange for Shares purchased and sold at the closing, certificates for the number of Shares stated in the Selling Stockholder’s Notice, accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer.
6
(d) Transfers to Third Parties. If the Company and the Investors in the aggregate fail to accept the offer stated in the Selling Stockholder’s Notice with respect to all of the Offered Shares, then the Selling Stockholder shall be free to sell any of the remaining shares of the Offered Shares not purchased by the Company and the Investors at a price and on terms no less favorable to the Selling Stockholder than described in the Selling Stockholder’s Notice, provided, however, that such sale is consummated within ninety (90) days after the giving of the Selling Stockholder’s Notice pursuant to Section 3.3(a). As a condition precedent to the effectiveness of a transfer pursuant to this Section 3.3(d), the proposed transferee(s) shall agree in writing prior to such transfer to become a party to this Agreement and shall thereafter be permitted to transfer Shares only in accordance with this Agreement.
3.4 Participation in Sales.
(a) Take-Along Right. In the event that a Stockholder (the “Offeree”) receives a bona fide offer from a third party or parties, other than from a Permitted Transferee (as defined below) or any other Stockholder (the “Offeror”), to acquire any of his, her or its Shares (the “Take-Along Shares”) for a specified price payable in cash or otherwise and on specified terms and conditions (the “Offer”), and the Offeree proposes to sell or otherwise transfer the Take-Along Shares to the Offeror pursuant to the Offer, the Offeree shall not effect such sale or transfer unless each Investor is first given the right to sell to the Offeror, at the same price per Share and on the same terms and conditions as stated in the Offer, the same proportion of shares of Common Stock (or shares of Investor Preferred Stock then convertible into such number of shares of Common Stock) then owned by such Investor, as the proportion that the number of the Take-Along Shares bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock held by the Offeree and all Investors on the date of the Company Notice.
(b) Notices of Offer and Intent to Participate. If an Investor wishes to participate in any sale pursuant to Section 3.4(a) it shall notify the Offeree in writing of such intention and the number of Shares it wishes to sell pursuant to this Section 3.4(b) not later than fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Company Notice (as described in Section 3.3(b) above). If the Offeree does not receive such notice from an Investor within such fifteen (15) day period, the Offeree shall be free to consummate the proposed transaction without any obligation to include such Investor’s Shares in such transaction.
(c) Sale of Take-Along Shares. The Offeree and each Investor who has provided timely notice in accordance with Section 3.4(b) above shall sell to the Offeror all, or at the option of the Offeror, any part of the Shares proposed to be sold by them at not less than the price and upon other terms and conditions, if any, not more favorable to the Offeror than those stated in the Offer, provided, however, that any purchase of less than all of such Shares by the Offeror shall be made from the Offeree and each such Investor pro rata based upon the relative amount of the Shares that the Offeree and such Investor is entitled to sell pursuant to Section 3.4.
3.5 Drag Along Obligation. If at any time after the fourth anniversary of the Series H Original Issue Date, holders representing at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66-2/3%) of the Investor Preferred Stock then outstanding (the “Selling Investors”) shall approve (a) a proposal from a Person for the transfer, directly or indirectly, of a majority of the Company’s stock to such Person (a “Stock Sale”), (b) the merger or consolidation of the Company with or
7
into another Person in which the Company’s stockholders will receive cash or securities of any other Person for their shares or (c) the sale by the Company or its Subsidiaries of all or substantially all of their assets to a Person, in each of the above cases for a specified price payable in cash or otherwise and on specified terms and conditions (a “Sale Proposal”), then the Company shall deliver a written notice (a “Required Sale Notice”) with respect to such Sale Proposal to each Stockholder stating that the Selling Investors have approved a Sale Proposal and proposes to effect the Sale Proposal and providing the identity of the Persons involved in such Sale Proposal and the terms thereof. Each such Stockholder, upon receipt of a Required Sale Notice, shall be obligated, which obligation shall be enforceable by the Selling Investors and the Company, to participate in the transaction (a “Required Sale”) contemplated by the Sale Proposal, and agrees as follows:
(a) if such transaction requires stockholder approval, with respect to all Shares that such Stockholder owns or over which such Stockholder otherwise exercises voting power, to vote (in person, by proxy or by action by written consent, as applicable) all Shares in favor of, and adopt, such Sale Proposal (together with any related amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation required in order to implement such Sale Proposal) and to vote in opposition to any and all other proposals that could reasonably be expected to delay or impair the ability of the Company to consummate such Sale Proposal;
(b) if such transaction is a Stock Sale, to sell the same proportion of Shares beneficially held by such Stockholder as is being sold by the Selling Investors to the Person to whom the Selling Investors propose to sell their Shares on the same terms and conditions as the Selling Investors;
(c) to execute and deliver all related documentation and take such other action in support of the Sale Proposal as shall reasonably be requested by the Company or the Selling Investors in order to carry out the terms and provision of this Section 3.5, including, without limitation, executing and delivering instruments of conveyance and transfer, and any purchase agreement, merger agreement, indemnity agreement, escrow agreement, consent, waiver, governmental filing, share certificates duly endorsed for transfer (free and clear of impermissible liens, claims and encumbrances) and any similar or related documents;
(d) not to deposit, and to cause their Affiliates not to deposit, except as provided in this Agreement, any Shares owned by such party or Affiliate in a voting trust or subject any Shares to any arrangement or agreement with respect to the voting of such Shares, unless specifically requested to do so by the acquiror in connection with the Sale Proposal; and
(e) if the consideration to be paid in exchange for the Shares pursuant to this Section 3.5 includes any securities and due receipt thereof by any Stockholder would require under applicable law (x) the registration or qualification of such securities or of any person as a broker or dealer or agent with respect to such securities or (y) the provision to any Stockholder of any information other than such information as a prudent issuer would generally furnish in an offering made solely to “accredited investors” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, the Company may cause to be paid to any such Stockholder in lieu thereof, against surrender of the Shares which would have otherwise been sold by such Stockholder, an amount in cash equal to the fair value (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors) of the securities which such Stockholder would otherwise receive as of the date of the issuance of such securities in exchange for the Shares.
8
Any Required Sale Notice may be rescinded by the Company upon the request of the Selling Investors by delivering written notice thereof to all of the Stockholders.
3.6 Transfers to Permitted Transferees. The provisions contained in this Article 3 shall not apply to (a) transfers by a Stockholder to an Affiliate of such Stockholder, (b) if such Stockholder is a corporation, transfers to the stockholders of such corporation pursuant to a duly declared dividend, (c) transfers to any nominee of such Stockholder made solely for bona fide internal administrative purposes, (d) transfers by a Stockholder to such Stockholder’s spouse, children or other member of such Stockholder’s immediate family, or to a trust for the benefit of such persons, (e) transfers by a Stockholder to the trustee or trustees of a trust revocable solely by such Stockholder, (f) transfers by a Stockholder to such Stockholder’s guardian or conservator, (g) transfers by a Stockholder, in the event of such Stockholder’s death, to such Stockholder’s executor(s) or administrator(s) or to trustee(s) under such Stockholder’s will or (h) transfers of (1) an aggregate of 770,000 shares of Series C Stock by Schweizerhall Holding AG to Omega Fund III, L.P., (2) an aggregate of 65,732 shares of Series F Stock by Schweizerhall Holding AG to Omega Fund III, L.P. and (3) warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 16,433 shares of Series F stock by Schweizerhall Holding AG to Omega Fund III, L.P. (collectively, “Permitted Transferees”); provided, however, that in any such event the Shares so transferred in the hands of each such Permitted Transferee shall remain subject to the provisions of this Article 3, and each such Permitted Transferee shall so acknowledge in writing as a condition precedent to the effectiveness of such transfer.
3.7 Waiver. From time to time the Company and/or each of the Stockholders may waive their rights hereunder either generally or with respect to one or more specified transfers which have been proposed, attempted or made.
3.8 Termination. The respective rights and obligations of the parties under this Article 3 shall terminate upon the consummation of the Company’s Initial Public Offering or a merger, acquisition or other form of corporate reorganization in which outstanding shares of the Company are exchanged for securities or other consideration issued, or caused to be issued, by the acquiring corporation or its subsidiary (other than a mere reincorporation transaction) and pursuant to which the holders of the outstanding voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such consolidation, merger or other transaction fail to hold (in substantially the same percentages) equity securities representing a majority of the voting power of the Company or surviving entity immediately following such consolidation, merger or other transaction (excluding voting securities of the acquiring corporation held by such holders prior to such transaction), or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company.

4. | TRANSFER OF REGISTRABLE SECURITIES; REGISTRATION |
4.1 Restrictive Legend. Each certificate representing Registrable Securities shall, except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.1 or in Section 4.2, be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form (in addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws):
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR ANY OTHER SECURITIES LAWS. THESE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO DISTRIBUTION OR RESALE. SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, DELIVERED AFTER SALE, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT COVERING SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND ANY OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS, UNLESS THE HOLDER SHALL HAVE OBTAINED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR THE TRANSFEREE IS AN AFFILIATE OF THE HOLDER; PROVIDED THAT THE CORPORATION SHALL NOT REQUIRE SUCH OPINION OF COUNSEL WITH RESPECT TO TRANSFERS MADE PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR REGULATIONS UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.”
In addition to the foregoing, each certificate representing Registrable Shares held by a Founder shall also be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form:
“THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER CONTAINED IN A CERTAIN STOCK SUBSCRIPTION AND RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL AGREEMENT, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS THEREOF. THE COMPANY WILL FURNISH A COPY OF THE FULL TEXT OF SUCH RESTRICTIONS TO THE HOLDER OF THIS CERTIFICATE UPON WRITTEN REQUEST AND WITHOUT CHARGE.”
4.2 Notice of Proposed Transfer. Subject to the provisions of Article 3, prior to any proposed sale, pledge, hypothecation or other transfer of any Registrable Securities (other than under the circumstances described in Section 4.3, 4.4 or 4.5), the holder thereof shall give written notice to the Company of its intention to effect such sale, pledge, hypothecation or other transfer. Each such notice shall describe the manner of the proposed sale, pledge, hypothecation or other transfer and, if requested by the Company shall be accompanied by either (i) an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that the proposed sale, pledge, hypothecation or other transfer may be effected without registration under the Securities Act or (ii) a “no action” letter from the Commission to the effect that the distribution of such securities without registration will not result in a recommendation by the staff of the Commission that action be taken with respect thereto, whereupon the holder of such stock shall be entitled to transfer such stock in accordance with the terms of its notice; provided, however, that no such opinion of counsel or “no-action” letter shall be required by the Company (A) for a distribution to one or more partners of the transferor (in the case of a transferor that is a partnership) or to a stockholder (in the case of a transferor that is a corporation) in each case in respect of the beneficial interest of such partner or stockholder, or to an affiliate of such transferor, or (B) in the case of a transfer made in accordance with the provisions of Rule 144 or Regulation S under
10
the Securities Act, although such opinion of counsel may be required by an independent transfer agent of the Company after the Initial Public Offering. Each certificate for Registrable Securities transferred as above provided shall bear the appropriate restrictive legend or legends, as the case may be, set forth in Section 4.1, except that such certificate shall not bear the first such legend if (i) such transfer is in accordance with the provisions of Rule 144 (or any other rule permitting public sale without registration under the Securities Act) or (ii) the opinion of counsel or “no-action” letter referred to above is to the further effect that the transferee and any subsequent transferee (other than an affiliate of the Company) would be entitled to transfer such securities in a public sale without registration under the Securities Act or that the first such legend is not required to establish compliance with any provisions of the Securities Act. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the restrictions provided for in this Section 4.2 shall not apply to securities that are not required to bear the legends prescribed by Section 4.1 in accordance with the provisions of that Section.
4.3 Required Registration.
(a) At any time after the earlier of (i) 180 days after the effective date of the registration statement covering the first underwritten public offering of Common Stock of the Company (an “IPO”) and (ii) the third anniversary of the Series H Original Issue Date, holders of at least forty percent (40%) of the Investor Preferred Stock (including Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof), together as a single class, on three occasions only may request the Company to register for sale under the Securities Act all or any portion of the shares of Registrable Securities held by such requesting holder or holders for sale in the manner specified in such notice; provided, however, that in the event of any such request, the aggregate offering price of shares of Registrable Securities to be registered on any such registration statement, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, is at least Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not be required to effect a registration pursuant to this Section 4.3 during the period commencing sixty (60) days prior to the estimated filing date of, and ending on the date which is one hundred eighty (180) days after the closing date of, a registration statement filed by the Company covering an underwritten public offering of the Common Stock under the Securities Act, provided the Company is actively employing in good faith reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective and such estimate of the filing date is made in good faith. If the Company shall furnish to the holders of Registrable Securities a certificate signed by its President stating that in the good faith judgment of its Board of Directors it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its stockholders for a registration statement to be filed at such time, then the Company’s efforts to cause a registration statement to be filed shall be deferred for a period not to exceed four (4) months in any twelve (12) month period, provided that in such event, if the Company does not effect a registration requested pursuant to this Section 4.3, such request shall not be counted for purposes of the limitations on registrations set forth above and in Section 4.3(b).
(b) Following receipt of any notice under this Section 4.3, the Company shall immediately notify all holders of Registrable Securities from whom notice has not been received and such holders shall then be entitled within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice from the Company to request the Company to include in the requested registration all or any portion of their shares of Registrable Securities. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to register
11
under the Securities Act, for public sale in accordance with the method of disposition specified in the notice from requesting holders described in paragraph (a) above, the number of shares of Registrable Securities specified in such notice (and in all notices received by the Company from other holders within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice by such holders). The Company shall be obligated to register the Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 4.3 on three (3) occasions only if requested by holders of at least forty percent (40%) of the Investor Preferred Stock, including, in each case Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof, provided, further, that such obligation shall be deemed satisfied only when a registration statement covering all shares of Registrable Securities specified in notices received as aforesaid, for sale in accordance with the method of disposition specified by the requesting holders, shall have become effective and, if such method of disposition is a firm commitment underwritten public offering, sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66-2/3%) or more of such shares shall have been sold pursuant thereto. The Company shall not be obligated to register, pursuant to this Section 4.3, the Registrable Securities of any holder who fails to provide promptly to the Company such information as the Company may reasonably request at any time to enable the Company to comply with any applicable law or regulation or to facilitate preparation of the registration statement.
(c) If the holders requesting such registration intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall (i) so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this Section 4.3 and the Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in paragraph (b) above and (ii) designate the managing underwriter of such offering, which managing underwriter shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company. The right of any holder to registration pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall be conditioned upon such holder’s agreeing to participate in such underwriting and to permit inclusion of such holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting. A holder may elect to include in such underwriting all or a part of the Registrable Securities it holds.
(d) A registration statement filed pursuant to this Section 4.3 may, subject to the following provisions, include (i) shares of Common Stock for sale by the Company for its own account, (ii) shares of Common Stock held by officers or directors of the Company and (iii) shares of Common Stock held by persons entitled to include such shares in such registration pursuant to “incidental” or “piggyback” registration rights granted to such persons in accordance with Section 4.14 (the “Other Shareholders”), in each case for sale in accordance with the method of disposition specified by the requesting holders. If such registration shall be underwritten, the Company, such officers and directors and Other Shareholders proposing to distribute their shares through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the representative of the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting on terms no less favorable to such officers, directors or Other Shareholders than the terms afforded the holders of Registrable Securities. If and to the extent that the managing underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be included in such registration, then the shares of Common Stock held by officers or directors or by Other Shareholders (other than Registrable Securities) and shares of Common Stock to be sold by the Company for its own account shall be excluded from such registration to the extent so required by such managing underwriter, and unless the holders of such shares and the Company have otherwise agreed in writing, such exclusion shall be applied first to the shares held by the directors and officers of the Company and the Other Shareholders to the extent
12
required by the managing underwriter, then to the shares of Common Stock of the Company to be included for its own account to the extent required by the managing underwriter. If the managing underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities to be registered under this Section 4.3, then Registrable Securities shall be excluded in such manner that the securities to be sold shall be allocated pro rata among the selling holders based on their ownership of Registrable Securities. If, in such event, the managing underwriter reduces the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be registered under this Section 4.3 to an amount which is less than fifty percent (50%) of the number of shares specified in notices received under this Section 4.3, then such registration shall not be counted for purposes of the limitations on registrations set forth in Section 4.3(b). In any event, all securities to be sold other than Registrable Securities will be excluded prior to any exclusion of Registrable Securities. No Registrable Securities or any other security excluded from the underwriting by reason of the underwriter’s marketing limitation shall be included in such registration. If any holder of Registrable Securities, officer, director or Other Shareholder who has requested inclusion in such registration as provided above, disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such holder of securities may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter. The securities so withdrawn shall also be withdrawn from registration.
4.4 Incidental Registration. Except for the IPO, if the Company at any time (other than pursuant to Section 4.3 or 4.5) proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act for sale to the public, whether for its own account or for the account of other security holders or both (except with respect to registration statements on Forms X-0, X-0 or any successor to such forms or another form not available for registering the Registrable Securities for sale to the public), each such time it will promptly give written notice to all holders of the Registrable Securities of its intention so to do. Upon the written request of any such holder, received by the Company within thirty (30) days after the giving of any such notice by the Company, to register any or all of its Registrable Securities, the Company will use reasonable best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities as to which registration shall have been so requested to be included in the securities to be covered by the registration statement proposed to be filed by the Company, all to the extent requisite to permit the sale or other disposition by the holder (in accordance with its written request) of such Registrable Securities so registered. If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the holders of Registrable Securities as a part of the written notice given pursuant to this Section 4.4. In such event the right of any holder of Registrable Securities to registration pursuant to this Section 4.4 shall be conditioned upon such holder’s participation in such underwriting to the extent provided herein. All holders of Registrable Securities proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company and the Other Shareholders distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for underwriting by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.4, if the managing underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, the Company shall so advise all holders of securities requesting registration of any limitations on the number of shares to be underwritten, and the number of shares of securities that are entitled to be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated (i) first to the Company with respect to shares of Common Stock being sold for its own account, (ii) second, to holders of Registrable Securities requesting registration in proportion, as
13
nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of securities owned by them and (iii) third, to Other Shareholders requesting registration in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of securities owned by them; provided that, with respect to any registration statement declared effective during the first six months following the IPO, at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the securities included in such registration statement will be Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, the Company may withdraw any registration statement referred to in this Section 4.4 without thereby incurring any liability to the holders of Registrable Securities. If any holder of Registrable Securities disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, it may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter. Any Registrable Securities or other securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration.
4.5 Registration on Form S-3. In addition to the rights provided in Sections 4.3 and 4.4, subject to a limit of one (1) registration hereunder in any six-month period, if at any time (i) any holder or holders of the Registrable Securities request that the Company file a registration statement on Form S-3 or any comparable or successor form thereto for a public offering of all or any portion of the shares of Registrable Securities held by such requesting holder or holders, the reasonably anticipated aggregate price to the public of which would be at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), and (ii) the Company is a registrant entitled to use Form S-3 or any comparable or successor form thereto to register such shares, then the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to register under the Securities Act on Form S-3 or any comparable or successor form thereto, for public sale in accordance with the method of disposition specified in such notice, the number of shares of Registrable Securities specified in such notice. Whenever the Company is required by this Section 4.5 to use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration of Registrable Securities, each of the procedures and requirements of Section 4.3, including, but not limited to, the requirement that the Company notify all holders of Registrable Securities from whom notice has not been received and provide them with the opportunity to participate in the offering, shall apply to such registration. If the holders requesting such registration notify the Company that they intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, and if the managing underwriter in connection with such underwriting determines that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, then notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.5, such limitation will be imposed pro rata with respect to all Registrable Securities whose holders have requested inclusion in such registration pursuant to this Section 4.5 provided that, in any event, all securities to be sold other than Registrable Securities will be excluded prior to any exclusion of Registrable Securities.
4.6 Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required by the provisions of Section 4.3, 4.4 or 4.5 to use reasonable best efforts to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:
(a) prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement (which, in the case of an underwritten public offering pursuant to Section 4.3, shall be on Form S-1 or other form of general applicability satisfactory to the managing underwriter selected as therein provided) with respect to such securities including executing an undertaking to file post-effective amendments and use reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective for the period of the distribution contemplated thereby;
14
(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 for the period specified herein and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement in accordance with the sellers’ intended method of disposition set forth in such registration statement for such period;
(c) furnish to each seller of Registrable Securities and to each underwriter such number of copies of the registration statement and each such amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits) and the prospectus included therein (including each preliminary prospectus) as such persons reasonably may request in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement;
(d) use reasonable 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 the sellers of Registrable Securities or, in the case of an underwritten public offering, the managing underwriter reasonably shall request, provided, however, that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to transact business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified or to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction;
(e) use reasonable best efforts to list the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement with any securities exchange on which the Common Stock of the Company is then listed;
(f) comply with all applicable rules and regulations under the Securities Act and Exchange Act;
(g) immediately notify each seller of Registrable Securities and each underwriter under such registration statement, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event of which the Company has knowledge as a result of which the prospectus contained in such registration statement, 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 light of the circumstances then existing, and promptly prepare and furnish to such seller a reasonable number of copies of a prospectus supplemented or amended so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, 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 light of the circumstances then existing;
(h) if the offering is underwritten and at the request of any seller of Registrable Securities, use reasonable best efforts to furnish on the date that Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale pursuant to such registration: (i) an opinion dated such date of counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, addressed to the underwriters to such effects as reasonably may be requested by counsel for the underwriters, and (ii) a letter dated such date from the independent public accountants retained by the Company, addressed to the underwriters stating that they are independent public accountants within the
15
meaning of the Securities Act and that, in the opinion of such accountants, the financial statements of the Company included in the registration statement or the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereof, comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Securities Act, and such letter shall additionally cover such other financial matters (including information as to the period ending no more than five (5) business days prior to the date of such letter) with respect to such registration as such underwriters reasonably may request;
(i) make available for inspection by each seller of Registrable Securities, any underwriter participating in any distribution pursuant to such registration statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by such seller or underwriter, reasonable access to all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, as such parties may reasonably request, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement;
(j) cooperate with the selling holders of Registrable Securities and the managing underwriter, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold, such certificates to be in such denominations and registered in such names as such holders or the managing underwriter may request at least two (2) business days prior to any sale of Registrable Securities; and
(k) permit any holder of Registrable Securities which holder, in the sole and exclusive judgment, exercised in good faith, of such holder, might be deemed to be a controlling person of the Company, to participate in good faith in the preparation of such registration or comparable statement and to require the insertion therein of material, furnished to the Company in writing, which in the reasonable judgment of such holder and its counsel should be included.
For purposes of this Agreement, the period of distribution of Registrable Securities in a firm commitment underwritten public offering shall be deemed to extend until each underwriter has completed the distribution of all securities purchased by it, and the period of distribution of Registrable Securities in any other registration shall be deemed to extend until the earlier of the sale of all Registrable Securities covered thereby or one hundred and eighty (180) days after the effective date thereof, provided, however, in the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or a comparable or successor form which are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, such 180-day period shall be extended, if necessary, to keep the registration statement effective until all such Registrable Securities are sold, provided that Rule 415, or any successor rule under the Securities Act, permits an offering on a continuous or delayed basis, and provided further that applicable rules under the Securities Act governing the obligation to file a post-effective amendment, permit, in lieu of filing a post-effective amendment which (y) includes any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act or (z) reflects facts or events representing a material or fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement, the incorporation by reference of information required to be included in (y) and (z) above contained in periodic reports filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act in the registration statement.
16
In connection with each registration hereunder, the sellers of Registrable Securities will furnish to the Company in writing such information requested by the Company with respect to themselves and the proposed distribution by them as shall be reasonably necessary in order to assure compliance with Federal and applicable state securities laws.
4.7 Expenses.
(a) All expenses incurred by the Company in complying with Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5 and 4.6 including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or “blue sky” laws, fees of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., transfer taxes, fees of transfer agents and registrars, costs of any insurance which might be obtained by the Company with respect to the offering by the Company, and reasonable fees and disbursements (not to exceed Thirty Thousand Dollars ($30,000)) of one counsel selected by a majority in interest of the sellers of Registrable Securities, but excluding any Selling Expenses (defined below), are called “Registration Expenses”. All underwriting discounts, underwriting selling commissions and brokerage commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities are called “Selling Expenses”.
(b) The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each registration statement under Section 4.3, 4.4 or 4.5. All Selling Expenses in connection with each registration statement under Section 4.3, 4.4 or 4.5 shall be borne by the participating sellers in proportion to the number of shares registered by each, or by such participating sellers other than the Company (except to the extent the Company shall be a seller) as they may agree.
4.8 Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) In the event of a registration of any of the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4.3, 4.4 or 4.5, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each holder of Registrable Securities, its officers, directors, partners and employees, each underwriter of such Registrable Securities thereunder and each other person, if any, who controls such holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such holder, officer, director, partner, employee, underwriter or controlling person 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 (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any prospectus, offering circular or other document incident to such registration (including any related notification, registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4.3, 4.4 or 4.5, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof), (ii) any blue sky application or other document executed by the Company specifically for that purpose or based upon written information furnished by the Company filed in any state or other jurisdiction in order to qualify any or all of the Registrable Securities under the securities laws thereof (any such application, document or information herein called a “Blue Sky Application”), (iii) any omission or alleged omission to state in any such registration statement, prospectus, amendment or supplement or in any Blue Sky Applications executed or filed by the
17
Company, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (iv) any violation by the Company or its agents of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act applicable to the Company or its agents and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with such registration, or (v) any failure to register or qualify the Registrable Securities in any state where the Company or its agents has affirmatively undertaken or agreed in writing that the Company (the undertaking of any underwriter chosen by the Company being attributed to the Company) will undertake such registration or qualification (provided that in such instance the Company shall not be so liable if it has used reasonable best efforts to so register or qualify the Registrable Securities) and will reimburse each such seller, and such officer, director, partner and employee, each such underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, promptly after being so incurred, provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case (i) if and 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 so made in conformity with written information furnished by any such holder, any such underwriter or any such controlling person in writing specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus, or (ii) in the case of a sale directly by such holder of Registrable Securities (including a sale of such Registrable Securities through any underwriter retained by such holder of Registrable Securities to engage in a distribution solely on behalf of such holder of Registrable Securities), such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was contained in a preliminary prospectus and corrected in a final or amended prospectus, and such holder of Registrable Securities failed to deliver a copy of the final or amended prospectus at or prior to the confirmation of the sale of Registrable Securities to the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability in any case where such delivery is required by the Securities Act or any state securities laws.
(b) In the event of a registration of any of the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4.3, 4.4 or 4.5, each seller of such Registrable Securities thereunder, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, each officer of the Company who signs the registration statement, each director of the Company, each other seller of Registrable Securities, each underwriter and each person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, against all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or such officer, director, other seller, underwriter or controlling person 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 any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any prospectus offering circular or other document incident to such registration (including any related notification, registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4.3, 4.4 or 4.5, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof), or any Blue Sky Application 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, and will reimburse the Company and each such officer, director, other seller, underwriter and controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, promptly after being
18
so incurred, provided, however, that such seller will be liable hereunder in any such case if and only 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 of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading made in reliance upon and in conformity with information pertaining to such seller, as such, furnished in writing to the Company by such seller specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus; provided, however, that in no event shall any indemnity hereinunder exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such seller. Not in limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that the indemnification obligations of any seller hereunder pursuant to any underwriting agreement entered into in connection herewith shall be limited to the obligations contained in this subparagraph (b).
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party other than under this Section 4.8 and shall only relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party under this Section 4.8 if and to the extent the indemnifying party is substantially prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 4.8 for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel so selected, provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or that the interests of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, the indemnified party shall have the right to select a separate counsel and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or action, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or action. Each indemnified party shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as an indemnifying party may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.
(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 of Registrable Securities exercising rights under this Agreement, or any controlling person of any such holder, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 4.8 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final
19
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 4.8 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any such selling holder or any such controlling person in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 4.8; then, and in each such case the Company and such holder will contribute to such aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of such holder on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative fault referred to in clause (i) above but also reflective of the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and by such holder on the other, provided, however, that, in any such case, no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and such holder on the other shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportion as the total proceeds from the offering (net of underwriting discounts and commissions but before deducting expenses) received by the Company and such holder. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of such holder on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission relates to information supplied by the Company or such holder and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
(e) The indemnities and obligations provided in this Section 4.8 shall survive the transfer of any Registrable Securities by such holder.
4.9 Changes in Common Stock. If, and as often as, there is any change in the Common Stock by way of a stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification, or through a merger, consolidation, reorganization or recapitalization, or by any other means, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the provisions hereof so that the rights and privileges granted hereby shall continue with respect to the Common Stock as so changed.
4.10 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may at any time permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, except as provided in paragraph (c) below, at all times after ninety (90) days after any registration statement covering a public offering of securities of the Company under the Securities Act shall have become effective, the Company agrees to:
(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule);
(b) use reasonable best efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and
20
(c) furnish to each holder of Registrable Securities forthwith upon request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of such Rule 144 (or any successor rule) and, at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements, of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company as such holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing such holder to sell any Registrable Securities without registration.
4.11 “Market Stand-Off” Agreement. Each holder of Registrable Securities agrees, if requested by the Company and an underwriter of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company, (i) not to lend, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock (whether such shares or any such securities are then owned by such holder or are thereafter acquired), or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, whether in privately negotiated or open market transactions, during the one hundred and eighty (180) day period following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act with respect to the Initial Public Offering, provided that all Other Shareholders, all officers and directors of the Company, all Founders, all persons including shares in such offering and all holders of one percent (1%) or more of the outstanding shares of all classes of capital stock of the Company enter into similar agreements for periods of equal or greater length. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the shares (or securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of said period.
4.12 Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Article 4 may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a holder of Registrable Securities to a transferee or assignee of such securities (y) who is not an operating company engaged in a business activity directly competitive with the Company (as reasonably determined by the Company’s Board of Directors) and who after such assignment or transfer, holds at least 50,000 shares of Registrable Securities (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and similar recapitalization events); provided, however, no Investor shall be deemed to be engaged in a business activity directly competitive with the Company, or (z) who is an Affiliate or a constituent partner of such holder; provided the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned; and provided, further, that such assignment shall be effective only if (i) immediately following such transfer the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act and (ii) the transferee or assignee shall acknowledge in writing that the transferred or assigned Registrable Securities shall remain subject to this Agreement. For the purposes of determining the number of shares of Registrable Securities held by a transferee or assignee, the holdings of transferees and assignees of a partnership who are partners or retired partners of such partnership (including spouses and ancestors, lineal descendants and siblings of such partners or
21
spouses who acquire Registrable Securities by gift, will or intestate succession) shall be aggregated together and with the partnership; provided that all assignees and transferees who would not qualify individually for assignment of registration rights shall have a single attorney-in-fact for the purpose of exercising any rights, receiving notices or taking any action under this Article 4.
4.13 Conditions to Registration Obligations. The Company shall not be obligated to effect the registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to Sections 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5 unless all holders of shares being registered consent to reasonable conditions imposed by the Company as the Company shall determine with the advice of counsel to be required by law including, without limitation:
(a) conditions requiring such holder to comply with all prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act and with all anti-stabilization, anti-manipulation and similar provisions of Section 10 of the Exchange Act and any rules issued thereunder by the Commission, and to furnish to the Company information about sales made in such public offering; and
(b) conditions requiring the holders of Registrable Securities to enter into an underwriting agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the holders of Registrable Securities.
4.14 Limitation on Subsequent Registration Rights.

5. | BOARD OF DIRECTORS |
5.1 Election of Directors. Each Stockholder shall take or cause to be taken such actions as may be required from time to time to establish and maintain the number of persons comprising
22
the Board of Directors of the Company at nine (9) or at such other number (not to exceed ten (10)) as the Board of Directors (including at least one (1) Series H Director (as defined below)) may determine from time to time, and to elect as directors (i) two (2) representatives of the Series C Stock, (A) one (1) of whom to be designated by Nomura International plc, and (B) one (1) of whom to be elected by a majority of the holders of Series C Stock issued and outstanding (together with the representative designated under clause (A), the “Series C Directors”), (ii) two (2) representatives of the Series H Stock, (A) one (1) of whom to be designated by Aisling Capital II, LP (initially Xxxxxxx Sun), and (B) one (1) of whom to be elected by a majority of the holders of Series H Stock issued and outstanding, (together with the representative designated under clause (A), the “Series H Directors”), (iii) Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Ph.D. or his designee, (iv) Xxxxxx X. Xxxx, M.D. or his designee, (v) the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (who currently is Xxxxxx X. Bigger), and (vi) two (2) outside independent directors designated by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Ph.D., Xxxxxx X. Xxxx, M.D. (or their respective designees) and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (who currently are Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx and Pieter Strijkert, Ph.D., the “Outside Directors”); provided, however, in the event that the Series H Directors request in good faith that the size of the Board of Directors of the Company be reduced to eight (8) for more efficient operation of such Board of Directors, such action will be taken as determined in good faith by, and with the approval of, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, the Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors and the Series H Directors. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at each annual meeting of the stockholders, and at each special meeting of the stockholders called for the purpose of electing directors of the Company, and at any time at which the stockholders have the right to, or shall, elect directors of the Company, then, and in each event, the Stockholders shall vote all Shares owned by them (or shall consent in writing in lieu of a meeting of stockholders, as the case may be) to set the number of, and to elect persons as, directors of the Company in accordance with the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated June 2, 2004, by and among the Series F Investors and the Company to the contrary, subject to applicable law, Nomura International plc’s director nominee shall be permitted to disclose to Nomura International plc all information and materials furnished to directors at meetings or otherwise.
5.2 Removal of Directors; Filling of Vacancies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that the size of the Board of Directors of the Company is reduced to eight (8) directors pursuant to Section 5.1 hereof, such reduction shall be effected by eliminating an Outside Director. Each Stockholder shall take all action necessary to remove forthwith any director when such removal is requested for any reason, with or without cause, by the Persons that designated such director for election. In the case of the death, resignation or removal as herein provided of a director, each Stockholder shall vote all Shares owned by him, her or it to elect another person designated by the Persons that designated the deceased, resigning or removed director if, at the time such vacancy occurs, such Persons shall have the right to have a person designated by them elected as a director pursuant to Section 5.1. If any Person that is entitled to designate or elect, as the case may be, a director pursuant to Section 5.1 fails to designate or elect a sufficient number of directors to fill all directorships for which they are entitled to designate or elect pursuant to Section 5.1, then any directorship not so filled shall remain vacant until such time as such Person designates or elects an individual to fill such directorship; and no such directorship may be filled by stockholders of the Corporation other than by the stockholders of the Corporation that are entitled to designate or elect a person to fill such directorship. At any meeting held for the purpose of electing a director, the presence in
23
person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the class or series entitled to elect such director shall constitute a quorum for the purpose of electing such director. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.2, a vacancy in any directorship filled by the holders of any class or series shall be filled only by vote or written consent in lieu of a meeting of the holders of such class or series or by any remaining director or directors elected by the holders of such class or series pursuant to this Section 5.2.
5.3 Company Committees; Directors of Subsidiaries. The Company’s Board of Directors shall establish a Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) consisting of the Chairman of the Board, one Board member elected by the holders of the Series C Stock and one other Board member that is not an executive officer or otherwise affiliated with an executive officer of the Company. The Compensation Committee will be authorized by the Board of Directors (i) to establish compensation for senior management of the Company, (ii) to grant shares of Common Stock, Rights or Convertible Securities and other forms of compensation under the Company’s option plans or other equity arrangements and (iii) to make recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding the recruitment and termination of senior management. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, each Series H Director shall be entitled to become a member of any committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, including, but not limited to, the Compensation Committee, as well as a member of the Board of Directors of any Subsidiary of the Company.
5.4 Board Observer Rights. The holders of a majority of outstanding shares of Series D Stock and, as long as Aisling Capital II, LP owns not less than ten percent (10%) of the Series H Stock it purchased pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, Aisling Capital II, LP shall each have the right to designate one representative, reasonably acceptable to the Company, who shall be entitled to attend all meetings of the Company’s Board of Directors in a non-voting observer capacity, and to receive copies of all materials that the Company provides to its directors, provided that such representatives shall maintain the confidentiality of all information provided to them in such materials and in the course of their attendance at meetings of the Company’s Board of Directors, and provided further that such representatives may be excluded from any “executive session” of the Board of Directors at which, in the opinion of the Chairman of the Board of Directors exercised in good faith, such exclusion is necessary to preserve or protect the exercise of the Board of Directors’ fiduciary duties, to preserve the attorney-client privilege, to protect confidential information or to avoid a conflict of interest. The representative of Aisling Capital II, LP entitled to the rights set forth in this Section 5.4 shall initially be Xxx Xxxxxxxxx.
5.5 Contingent Expansion of the Board. If, at any time after the fourth anniversary of the Series H Original Issue Date, a Triggering Event (as hereinafter defined) occurs, the number of persons then comprising the Board of Directors of the Company shall be increased automatically from nine (9) to fifteen (15) and the Board of Directors shall be reconstituted (the “Reconstituted Board of Directors”) such that there shall be (i) two (2) Series C Directors, two (2) Series H Directors and two (2) Outside Directors, in each case as required by Section 5.1 hereof, (ii) three (3) directors, other than the Outside Directors, elected by the holders of Common Stock and of any other class or series of voting stock (including the Series C Stock and Series H Stock), voting together as a separate class, who shall be Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Ph.D. or his designee, Xxxxxx X. Xxxx, M.D. or his designee, and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and
24
(iii) six (6) directors elected by the Selling Investors identified in Section 3.5 hereof, voting together as a single class; provided, however, if the number of persons comprising the Board of Directors of the Company at the time of the Triggering Event is eight (8), as permitted by Section 5.1 hereof, then the number of Outside Directors shall be one (1) and the total number of directors elected pursuant to clause (iii) above shall be five (5); provided, further, if the number of persons comprising the Board of Directors of the Company at the time of the Triggering Event is ten (10), as permitted by Section 5.1 hereof, then the total number of directors elected pursuant to clause (iii) above shall be seven (7). For the purposes hereof, a “Triggering Event” shall occur when both of the following events take place: (a) the Selling Investors identified in Section 3.5 hereof approve the merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person in which the Company’s stockholders will receive cash or securities of any other Person for their shares, thereby causing the Stockholders to be obligated to participate in such transaction pursuant to Section 3.5 hereof (a “Merger”), and (b) the Board of Directors of the Company, after receipt of a bona fide offer regarding the Merger (in the form of a term sheet or otherwise), elects not to approve the Merger at a duly called meeting or via written consent. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Board of Directors of the Company shall only be expanded to become the Reconstituted Board of Directors pursuant to this Section 5.5 solely for the purpose of obtaining approval by the Reconstituted Board of Directors of the Merger and the actions directly related thereto that are the subject of a Triggering Event. In the event that the consummation of such Merger fails to occur for any reason within the time period set forth in any bona fide term sheet or other writing related to the Merger, in each case as may be amended or extended from time to time, or in the event that any action unrelated to such Merger is required to be voted on, the composition of the Board of Directors of the Company shall automatically revert back to the composition in effect immediately prior to the Reconstituted Board of Directors becoming effective. The rights and obligations contained in this Section 5.5 relating to the Merger that is the subject of a Triggering Event may be waived only by the Selling Investors identified in Section 3.5 hereof, voting together as a single class.
5.6 Reimbursement of Expenses. The Company shall promptly reimburse members of its Board of Directors and any observer permitted by Section 5.4 for reasonable travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection with their attendance at meetings of the Company’s Board of Directors or committees thereof. If requested by the Company, such directors and observers shall provide the Company with documentation supporting any such expenses.

8.9 Interpretation.

No notice to or demand on a party not expressly required under this Agreement shall entitle the party receiving such notice or demand to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the party giving such notice or demand to any other or further action in any circumstances without such notice or demand.

FIRST AMENDMENT
TO THE
THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT
This First Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Third Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement, dated October 19, 2007, by and among (i) Paratek Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), (ii) the holders of the Company’s common stock listed on Exhibit A (referred to herein individually as a “Founder” and collectively as the “Founders”), (iii) the Series C Investors listed on Exhibit B (the “Series C Investors”), (iv) the Series D Investors listed on Exhibit C (the “Series D Investors”), (v) the Series F Investors listed on Exhibit D (the “Series F Investors”) and (vi) the Series H Investors listed on Exhibit E (the “Series H Investors” and together with the Series C Investors, Series D Investors, Series F Investors, the “Investors”), is made as of August 6, 2009.
WHEREAS, the Company is entering into a Note Purchase Agreement with certain existing stockholders of the Company pursuant to which the Company will issue and sell and these certain stockholders will purchase promissory notes of the Company;
WHEREAS, in connection with the execution of the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company, the Investors and the Founders desire to amend certain provisions of Section 5 of the Investor Rights Agreement as set forth herein in order to modify the size and composition of the Company’s Board of Directors; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with Section 8.3 of the Investor Rights Agreement, (i) Investors holding at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66-2/3%) of the outstanding shares of the Investor Preferred Stock (as defined in the Investor Rights Agreement), (ii) Investors holding a majority of the outstanding shares of Series H Stock (as defined in the Investor Rights Agreement) and (iii) the Founders have, in each case, provided their written consent and approval of this Amendment, and, by executing and delivering this Amendment, the Company has consented and approved of this Amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained in this Amendment and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Amendment of Investor Rights Agreement.
(i) The Investor Rights Agreement is hereby amended by deleting Section 5.1 in its entirety and by substituting in lieu thereof the following new Section 5.1:
“5.1 Election of Directors. Each Stockholder shall take or cause to be taken such actions as may be required from time to time to establish and maintain the number of persons comprising the Board of Directors of the Company at ten (10) or at such other number as the Board of Directors (including at least one (1) Series H Director (as defined below)) may determine from time to time, and to elect as directors (i) two (2) representatives of the Series C Stock, (A) one (1) of whom to be designated by Nomura
International plc, and (B) one (1) of whom to be elected by a majority of the holders of Series C Stock issued and outstanding (together with the representative designated under clause (A), the “Series C Directors”), (ii) three (3) representatives of the Series H Stock, to be designated by Aisling Capital II, LP (the “Series H Directors”), one of whom shall initially be Xxxxxxx Sun, MD (iii) Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Ph.D. or his designee, (iv) Xxxxxx X. Xxxx, M.D. or his designee, (v) the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (who currently is Xxxxxx X. Bigger), and (vi) two (2) outside independent directors designated by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Ph.D., Xxxxxx X. Xxxx, M.D. (or their respective designees) and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (who currently are Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx and Pieter Strijkert, Ph.D., the “Outside Directors”); provided, however, in the event that less than all three Series H Directors are present at any meeting of the Board of Directors, then (1) in the event one Series H Director is present, such Series H Director shall have the right to cast three votes and (2) in the event two Series H Directors are present, one of whom is Xxxxxxx Sun, then Dr. Sun shall have the right to cast two votes, in each case so that the Series H Director(s) shall have the right to cast three (3) votes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at each annual meeting of the stockholders, and at each special meeting of the stockholders called for the purpose of electing directors of the Company, and at any time at which the stockholders have the right to, or shall, elect directors of the Company, then, and in each event, the Stockholders shall vote all Shares owned by them (or shall consent in writing in lieu of a meeting of stockholders, as the case may be) to set the number of, and to elect persons as, directors of the Company in accordance with the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated June 2, 2004, by and among the Series F Investors and the Company to the contrary, subject to applicable law, Nomura International plc’s director nominee shall be permitted to disclose to Nomura International plc all information and materials furnished to directors at meetings or otherwise.”
(ii) Section 5.2 of the Investor Rights Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the first sentence of Section 5.2 in its entirety.
(iii) The Investor Rights Agreement is hereby amended by deleting Section 5.5 in its entirety and by substituting in lieu thereof the following new Section 5.5:
“5.5 Contingent Expansion of the Board. If, at any time after the fourth anniversary of the Series H Original Issue Date, a Triggering Event (as hereinafter defined) occurs, the number of persons then comprising the Board of Directors of the Company shall be increased automatically from ten (10) to fifteen (15) and the Board of Directors shall be reconstituted (the “Reconstituted Board of Directors”) such that there shall be (i) two (2) Series C Directors, three (3) Series H Directors and two (2) Outside Directors, in each case as required by Section 5.1 hereof, (ii) three (3) directors, other than the Outside Directors, elected by the holders of Common Stock and of any other class or series of voting stock (including the Series C Stock and Series H Stock), voting together as a separate class, who shall be Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Ph.D. or his designee, Xxxxxx X. Xxxx, M.D. or his designee, and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and (iii) five (5) directors elected by the Selling Investors identified in Section 3.5 hereof, voting together as a single class; provided, however, if the number of persons comprising the Board of Directors of the Company at the time of the Triggering Event is less than or more than ten (10), then
2
the total number of directors elected pursuant to clause (iii) above shall be such number of directors as, together with the three (3) Series H Directors, is sufficient to constitute a majority of the full Board of Directors. For the purposes hereof, a “Triggering Event” shall occur when both of the following events take place: (a) the Selling Investors identified in Section 3.5 hereof approve the merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person in which the Company’s stockholders will receive cash or securities of any other Person for their shares, thereby causing the Stockholders to be obligated to participate in such transaction pursuant to Section 3.5 hereof (a “Merger”), and (b) the Board of Directors of the Company, after receipt of a bona fide offer regarding the Merger (in the form of a term sheet or otherwise), elects not to approve the Merger at a duly called meeting or via written consent. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Board of Directors of the Company shall only be expanded to become the Reconstituted Board of Directors pursuant to this Section 5.5 solely for the purpose of obtaining approval by the Reconstituted Board of Directors of the Merger and the actions directly related thereto that are the subject of a Triggering Event. In the event that the consummation of such Merger fails to occur for any reason within the time period set forth in any bona fide term sheet or other writing related to the Merger, in each case as may be amended or extended from time to time, or in the event that any action unrelated to such Merger is required to be voted on, the composition of the Board of Directors of the Company shall automatically revert back to the composition in effect immediately prior to the Reconstituted Board of Directors becoming effective. The rights and obligations contained in this Section 5.5 relating to the Merger that is the subject of a Triggering Event may be waived only by the Selling Investors identified in Section 3.5 hereof, voting together as a single class.”
2. Miscellaneous.
Except as contemplated by this Amendment, all of the terms and conditions of the Investor Rights Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

WHEREAS, the Company has been notified by Nomura International Plc (“NIP”), a holder of the Company’s Series C Convertible Preferred Stock and Series D Convertible Preferred Stock and by Nomura Phase4 Ventures LP (“NPV2”), a holder of the Company’s Series H Convertible Preferred Stock (collectively the “NPV Stock”) that NIP and NPV2 are in the process of transferring the entirety of the NPV Stock (together with all of the rights attached thereto) to a limited partnership to be known as Phase4 Ventures III LP (the “Transferee”);
WHEREAS, the initial investor in the Transferee will be a Nomura entity (being an affiliate of NIP and of the sole Nomura investor in NPV2), but it is intended that such affiliate will dispose of its limited partnership interest to a fund managed or advised by HarbourVest Partners, LLC or its affiliates, which will become the new majority limited partner in the Transferee;
WHEREAS, Nomura Phase4 Ventures Limited (“NPVL”), the current manager of the NPV Stock for NIP and NPV2 will also be appointed to manage the Transferee, and an affiliate of NPVL will be the general partner of each of the Transferee and NPV2;
WHEREAS, concurrently with the disposal of the limited partnership interest in the Transferee, NIP will transfer NPVL and its subsidiaries to the current management team comprising NPVL (the “Transaction”);
WHEREAS, based on the foregoing, the Transaction will constitute a transfer by NIP and NPV2 to an “Affiliate” of such Stockholders and will thus constitute a transfer to a “Permitted Transferee” for purposes of Section 3.6 of the Investor Rights Agreement, such that the provisions of Sections 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5 of the Investor Rights Agreement will not apply to the Transaction;
WHEREAS, each of NIP and NPV2 intend to assign all of their respective rights under the Investor Rights Agreement to the Transferee and the Transferee will assume all of the obligations of NIP and NPV2 under the Investor Rights Agreement by executing an Instrument of Adherence to the Investor Rights Agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A;
WHEREAS, while it is anticipated that NPV2 and the Transferee will remain under the common management of NPVL, (i) the limited partnership agreement governing NPV2 contains provisions relating to the removal of the general partner and termination of the manager, and negotiated terms in relation to these provisions will be included in the limited partnership governing the Transferee and (ii) NPV2 and the Transferee do not have the same term, as NPV2’s term is due to expire on 30 April 2012 (although it may be extended by two additional one year periods); while this is not envisaged, it is therefore possible that NPV2 and the Transferee may cease to be commonly managed at some point in the future or that NPV2 may be dissolved prior to the liquidation of the Transferee; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with Section 8.3 of the Investor Rights Agreement, Investors holding at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66-2/3%) of the outstanding shares of the Investor Preferred Stock (as defined in the Investor Rights Agreement), have provided their written consent to, and approval of, this Amendment, and, by executing and delivering this Amendment, the Company has consented to and approved this Amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained in this Amendment, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Acknowledgement of Permitted Transferee.
The parties hereby confirm and acknowledge that the transfer of the NPV Stock by each of NIP and NPV2 to the Transferee is a transfer to an “Affiliate” (under and as defined in the Investor Rights Agreement) and that the Transferee is a “Permitted Transferee” under Section 3.6 of the Investor Rights Agreement.
2. Amendment to Investor Rights Agreement.
Section 5.1 of the Investor Rights Agreement is hereby amended such that each reference to “Nomura International Plc” is replaced with a reference to “Phase4 Ventures III LP”, such that the rights exercisable by NIP to designate one Series C Director to the Board of Directors of the Company be exercisable by the Transferee going forwards. For purposes of clarification, the parties acknowledge that any other rights to elect persons to the Board of Directors of the Company which NIP (as Series C and Series D Stockholder) and NPV2 (as Series H Stockholder) may have had pursuant to Article 5 of the Investor Rights Agreement shall be exercisable by the Transferee following completion of the Transaction.
3. Effect of Amendment.
Except as contemplated by this Amendment, the terms and conditions of the Investor Rights Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
2
4. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
5. Governing Law. This Amendment will be governed by and interpreted and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this Amendment as of the date first above written.
