of all obligations of PBT hereunder at the Initial Closing and the

and
the PBT Conversion Shares pursuant to the PBT Charter has been taken. This

Since the Statement Date, there has not been to PBT’s knowledge:
(i) Any
change in the
assets, liabilities, financial condition or operations of PBT from that

(j) Title
to
Properties and Assets; Liens, Etc. PBT has good and marketable title to
its properties and assets and good title to its leasehold estates, in each
case
subject to no mortgage, pledge, lien, lease, encumbrance or charge, other than
(i) those resulting from taxes which have not yet become delinquent,
(ii) minor liens and encumbrances that do not materially detract from the
value of the property subject thereto or materially impair the operations of
PBT, and (iii) those that have otherwise arisen in the ordinary course of
business. PBT is in compliance with all material terms of each lease to which
it
is a party or is otherwise bound.
(k) Intellectual
Property.
(i) PBT
owns or possesses
sufficient legal rights to (A) all trademarks, service marks, trade names,
copyrights, trade secrets, licenses, information and other proprietary rights
and processes and (B) to PBT’s knowledge, all patents, in each instance as
necessary for its business as now conducted and as presently proposed to be
conducted, without any known infringement of the rights of others. There are
no
outstanding options, licenses or agreements of any kind relating to the
foregoing proprietary rights, nor is PBT bound by or a party to any options,
licenses or agreements of any kind with respect to the patents, trademarks,
service marks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets, licenses, information
and
other proprietary rights and processes of any other person or entity other
than
such licenses or agreements arising from the purchase of “off the shelf” or
standard products.
(ii) PBT
has not received
any communications alleging that PBT has violated or, by conducting its business
as presently proposed, would violate any of the patents, trademarks, service
marks, trade names, copyrights or trade secrets or other proprietary rights
of
any other person or entity.
(iii) PBT
is not aware
that any of its employees is obligated under any contract (including licenses,
covenants or commitments of any nature) or other agreement, or subject to any
judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative agency, that would
interfere with their duties to PBT or that would conflict with PBT’s business as
proposed to be conducted. Each employee, officer and consultant of PBT has
executed a proprietary information and inventions agreement in the form(s)
as
delivered to WinWin. No employee, officer or consultant of PBT has excluded
works or inventions made prior to his or her employment with PBT from his or
her
assignment of inventions pursuant to such employee, officer or consultant’s
proprietary information and inventions agreement. PBT does not believe it is
or
will be necessary to utilize any inventions, trade secrets or proprietary
information of any of its employees made prior to their employment by PBT,
except for inventions, trade secrets or proprietary information that have been
assigned to PBT.
15
(l) Compliance
with Other Instruments. PBT is not in violation or default of any term
of its charter documents, each as amended, or of any provision of any mortgage,
indenture, contract, agreement, instrument or contract to which it is party
or
by which it is bound or of any judgment, decree, order or writ other than any
such violation that would not have a material adverse effect on PBT. The
execution, delivery, and performance of and compliance with this Agreement
and
the issuance and sale of the PBT Shares pursuant hereto and of the PBT
Conversion Shares pursuant to the PBT Charter, will not, with or without the
passage of time or giving of notice, result in any such material violation,
or
be in conflict with or constitute a material default under any such document,
or
result in the creation of any mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or charge
upon
any of the properties or assets of PBT or the suspension, revocation,
impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any permit, license, authorization
or
approval applicable to PBT, its business or operations or any of its assets
or
properties. To its knowledge, PBT has avoided every condition, and has not
performed any act, the occurrence of which would result in PBT’s loss of any
right granted under any license, distribution agreement or other agreement
required to be disclosed on the PBT Disclosure Schedule.
(m) Litigation.
There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to PBT’s
knowledge, currently overtly threatened against PBT that questions the validity
of this Agreement, or the right of PBT to enter into any of such agreements,
or
to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or that would
reasonably be expected to result, either individually or in the aggregate,
in
any material adverse change in the assets, condition, affairs or prospects
of
PBT, financially or otherwise, or any change in the current equity ownership
of
PBT, nor is PBT aware that there is any basis for any of the foregoing. The
foregoing includes, without limitation, actions pending or, to PBT’s knowledge,
threatened in writing involving the prior employment of any of PBT’s employees,
their use in connection with PBT’s business of any information or techniques
allegedly proprietary to any of their former employers, or their obligations
under any agreements with prior employers. PBT is not a party or subject to
the
provisions of any order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree of any court
or
government agency or instrumentality. There is no action, suit, proceeding
or
investigation by PBT currently pending or that PBT intends to initiate.
(n) Tax
Returns
and Payments. PBT is and always has been a subchapter C corporation.
PBT has filed all tax returns (federal, state and local) required to be filed
by
it. All taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns, any assessments
imposed, and to PBT’s knowledge all other taxes due and payable by PBT on or
before the Initial Closing, have been paid or will be paid prior to the time
they become delinquent. PBT has not been advised (i) that any of its
returns, federal, state or other, have been or are being audited as of the
date
hereof, or (ii) of any deficiency in assessment or proposed judgment to its
federal, state or other taxes. PBT has no knowledge of any liability of any
tax
to be imposed upon its properties or assets as of the date of this Agreement
that is not adequately provided for.
(o) Employees.
PBT has no collective bargaining agreements with any of its employees. There
is
no labor union organizing activity pending or, to PBT’s knowledge, threatened
with respect to PBT. To PBT’s knowledge, no employee of PBT, nor any consultant
with whom PBT has contracted, is in violation of any term of any employment
contract, proprietary information agreement or any other agreement relating
to
the right of any such individual to be employed by, or to contract with, PBT;
and to PBT’s knowledge the continued employment by PBT of its present employees,
and the performance of PBT’s contracts with its independent contractors, will
not result in any such violation. PBT has not received any notice alleging
that
any such violation has occurred. No employee of PBT has been granted the right
to continued employment by PBT or to any material compensation following
termination of employment with PBT. PBT is not aware that any officer, key
employee or group of employees intends to terminate his, her or their employment
with PBT, nor does PBT have a present intention to terminate the employment
of
any officer, key employee or group of employees. There are no actions pending,
or to PBT’s knowledge, threatened, by any former or current employee concerning
such person’s employment by PBT.
16
(p) Obligations
of Management. Each officer and key employee of the PBT currently
devoting substantially all of his or her business time to the conduct of the
business of PBT. PBT is not aware that any officer or key employee of PBT is
planning to work less than full time at PBT in the future. No officer or key
employee is currently working or, to PBT’s knowledge, plans to work for a
competitive enterprise, whether or not such officer or key employee is or will
be compensated by such enterprise.
(q) Registration
Rights and Voting Rights. Except as required pursuant to the PBT
Registration Rights Agreement and that certain Investor Rights Agreement, dated
as of November 14, 2003, by and among PBT and the other parties thereto,
PBT is presently not under any obligation, and has not granted any rights,
to
register any of PBT’s presently outstanding securities or any of its securities
that may hereafter be issued. To PBT’s knowledge, no stockholder of PBT has
entered into any agreement with respect to the voting of equity securities
of
PBT.
(r) Compliance
with Laws; Permits. To its knowledge, PBT is not in violation of any
applicable statute, rule, regulation, order or restriction of any domestic
or
foreign government or any instrumentality or agency thereof in respect of the
conduct of its business or the ownership of its properties which violation
would
materially and adversely affect the business, assets, liabilities, financial
condition, operations or prospects of PBT. No United States domestic
governmental orders, permissions, consents, approvals or authorizations are
required to be obtained and no registrations or declarations are required to
be
filed in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the
issuance of the PBT Shares or the PBT Conversion Shares, except such as have
been duly and validly obtained or filed, or with respect to any filings that
must be made after the Initial Closing, as will be filed in a timely manner.
PBT
has all franchises, permits, licenses and any similar authority necessary for
the conduct of its business as now being conducted by it, the lack of which
could materially and adversely affect the business, properties or financial
condition of PBT and believes it can obtain, without undue burden or expense,
any similar authority for the conduct of its business as planned to be
conducted.
(s) Environmental
and Safety Laws. To its knowledge, PBT is not in violation of any
applicable statute, law or regulation relating to the environment or
occupational health and safety, and to its knowledge, no material expenditures
are or will be required in order to comply with any such existing statute,
law
or regulation. No Hazardous Materials (as defined below) are used or have been
used, stored, or disposed of by PBT or, to PBT’s knowledge, by any other person
or entity on any property owned, leased or used by PBT. For the purposes of
the
preceding sentence, “Hazardous Materials” shall mean (a) materials that are
listed or otherwise defined as “hazardous” or “toxic” under any applicable
local, state, federal and/or foreign laws and regulations that govern the
existence and/or remedy of contamination on property, the protection of the
environment from contamination, the control of hazardous wastes, or other
activities involving hazardous substances, including building materials, or
(b) any petroleum products or nuclear materials.

reimburse PBT and its affiliates and Representatives for all Damages incurred,
set forth in a Claim Notice and not disputed within ten business days of
delivering to WinWin the notice that details such Damages, in satisfaction
of
WinWin’s indemnification obligations under Section 14(c). The claw back and

WinWin Shares that were clawed back and forfeited.

the right to claw back any PBT Shares pursuant to Section 14(e) for any
inaccuracy in any of WinWin’s representations and warranties set forth in

Damages arising from such inaccuracy and all other Damages arising from any
other inaccuracies in any WinWin representations or warranties) that have been
directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any one or more of the WinWin
Indemnitees, or to which any one or more of the WinWin Indemnitees has or have

otherwise become subject, exceeds $50,000 in the aggregate. (If the total amount

Damages.)

Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, PBT has agreed to
purchase shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, US$0.01
par value per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”);
The
Company and PBT desire to provide for certain arrangements with
respect to the registration of shares of capital stock of the Company under
the
Securities Act (as defined herein).
The
execution and delivery of this Agreement is a condition precedent
to the transaction contemplated by the JV Agreement.
AGREEMENT
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual
covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, and for other good
and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

exchange for or in replacement of or upon conversion of such shares or otherwise
in connection with a combination of shares, recapitalization, merger,
consolidation or other corporate reorganization).
“Exchange

as amended, or any similar successor federal statute, and the rules and
regulations of the Commission thereunder, all as the same shall be in effect
at
the time.

any
option granted pursuant thereto, and (c) any additional shares of Common

respect of any share of Preferred Stock or any share of Common Stock into
which
any share of Preferred Stock was converted, or acquired by way of any rights
offering or similar offering made in respect thereof; provided, however,
that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, “Registrable
Securities” shall not at any time include any securities (i) registered and sold
pursuant to the Securities Act, or (ii) sold pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated
under the Securities Act.
“Securities
Act” shall mean the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or any similar successor federal statute, and the rules and regulations
of the Commission thereunder, all as the same shall be in effect at the
time.
2. Registrations.
(a) Demand
Registration.
(i) If
the Company shall be
requested in writing by Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities
to
file a registration statement for Registrable Securities having an aggregate
offering price to the public of not less than US$15,000,000 under the Securities
Act (a “Demand Notice”) in accordance with this Section 2(a),
then the Company shall use best efforts to effect such a registration statement.
Upon receipt of a Demand Notice, the Company shall, within 10 days, give
written
notice of such proposed registration to all Holders and shall offer to include
in such proposed registration any Registrable Securities requested to be
included in such proposed registration by such Holders who respond in writing
to
the Company’s notice within 30 days after delivery of such notice (which
response shall specify the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be
included in such registration). The Company shall promptly use best efforts
to
effect such registration as soon as practicable on an appropriate form,
including Form S-2 or S-3, if available, under the Securities Act of the
Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to
effect any registration under the Securities Act in the following
circumstances:
2
(A) after
the Company has
already filed two registration statements initiated by the Holders of
Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2(a); or
(B) during
any period in
which any other registration statement (other than on Form S-4 or
Form S-8 promulgated under the Securities Act or any successor forms
thereto) pursuant to which Registrable Securities are to be or were sold
has
been filed and not withdrawn or has been declared effective within the prior
90
days.
(ii) If
the Holders
requesting to be included in a registration pursuant to this
Section 2(a) so elect, the offering of such Registrable Securities
pursuant to such registration shall be in the form of an underwritten offering.
The Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities requested to be included
in such registration shall select one or more nationally recognized firms
of
investment bankers reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as the lead
managing underwriter or underwriters in connection with such offering and
shall
select any additional investment bankers and managers to be used in connection
with the offering, which shall also be reasonably acceptable to the Company.
(iii) With
respect to any
registration pursuant to this Section 2(a), the Company may include
in such registration any Common Stock; provided, however, that if
the managing underwriter advises the Company that the inclusion of all
Registrable Securities and Common Stock requested to be included by the Company
in such registration would interfere with the successful marketing (including
pricing) of all such securities, then the number of Registrable Securities
and
Common Stock proposed to be included in such registration shall be included
in
the following order:
(A) first,
the
Registrable Securities shall be included, pro rata among the participating
Holders based upon the number of Registrable Securities held by such Holders
at
the time of such registration; and
(B) second,
Common
Stock requested to be included by the Company.
(iv) At
any time before the
registration statement covering Registrable Securities becomes effective,
Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities requested to be included
in
such registration may request the Company to withdraw or not to file the
registration statement. In that event, if such request of withdrawal shall
have
been caused by, or made in response to, a material adverse effect or change
in
the Company’s financial condition, operations, business or prospects, such
Holders of Registrable Securities shall not be deemed to have used one of
their
demand registration rights under this Section 2(a).
3
(b) Registrations
on Form S-3. Notwithstanding anything contained in
Section 2 to the contrary, at such time as the Company shall
have
qualified for the use of Form S-3 promulgated under the Securities Act or
any successor form thereto, Holders of Registrable Securities shall have
the
right to request in writing up to two registrations on Form S-3 or any such
successor forms of Registrable Securities, which request or requests shall
(i)
specify the number of Registrable Securities intended to be sold or disposed
of
and the Holders thereof, (ii) state the intended method of disposition of
such
Registrable Securities, and (iii) relate to Registrable Securities having
an
anticipated aggregate offering price of at least US$5,000,000. A requested
registration on Form S-3 or any such successor forms in compliance with
this Section 2(b) shall not count as a demand registration pursuant
to Section 2(a), but shall otherwise be treated as a registration
initiated pursuant to and shall, except as otherwise expressly provided in
this
Section 2(b), be subject to Section 2(a).
(c) Piggyback
Registration. If, at any time or times the Company shall seek to
register any shares of its Common Stock under the Securities Act for sale
to the
public for its own account or on the account of others (except with respect
to
registration statements on Form X-0, X-0 or another form not available for
registering the Registrable Securities for sale to the public), the Company
will
promptly give written notice thereof to all Holders. If within [ten (10)]
business days after their receipt of such notice one or more Holders request
in
writing the inclusion of some or all of the Registrable Securities owned
by them
in such registration, the Company will use best efforts to effect the
registration under the Securities Act of such Registrable Securities. In
the
case of the registration of shares of capital stock by the Company in connection
with any underwritten public offering, if the principal underwriter determines
that the number of Registrable Securities to be offered must be limited,
the
Company shall not be required to register Registrable Securities of the Holders
in excess of the amount, if any, of shares of the capital stock which the
principal underwriter of such underwritten offering shall reasonably and
in good
faith agree to include in such offering in addition to any amount to be
registered for the account of the Company; provided, however, that in no
event
shall the Registrable Securities to be included by PBT or its designee be
reduced to below 25% of the total amount of securities included in the
registration.
(d) Obligations
Subject to Existing Obligations. Notwithstanding anything contained
in Section 2 to the contrary, the Company’s obligations under this
Section 2 shall be subject to its obligations pursuant to Section 4(k) of
the
Securities Purchase Agreement by and between the Company and Xxx Xxxxxxx
Private
Opportunities Fund dated as of February 25, 2005 (the “Existing
Obligations”). The Company will not increase, extend or otherwise amend any
of the Existing Obligations without the prior written consent of the Holders
of
a majority of the then outstanding Registrable Securities, and will promptly
notify the Holders of the expiration of the Existing Obligations.
3. Further
Obligations of the Company. Whenever the Company is required
hereunder to register any Registrable Securities, it agrees that it shall
also
do the following:
(a) Pay
all
expenses of such registrations and offerings in connection with any
registrations pursuant to Section 2 hereof; provided,
however, that the Company shall have no obligation
to pay
or otherwise bear any portion of the underwriters’ commissions or discounts
attributable to the Registrable Securities being offered and sold by the
Holders
or the fees and expenses of any counsel for the selling Holders in connection
with the registration of the Registrable Securities;
4
(b) Use
its
best efforts to diligently prepare and file with the Commission a registration
statement and such amendments and supplements to said registration statement
and
the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep said
registration statement effective until the Holder or Holders have completed
the
distribution described in the registration statement relating thereto (but
for
no more than one hundred eighty (180) days or such lesser period until all
such
Registrable Securities are sold) and to comply with the provisions of the
Securities Act with respect to the sale of securities covered by said
registration statement for such period; provided, however, that
(i) such 180-day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the
period the Holder refrains from selling any securities included in such
registration at the request of an underwriter of Common Stock (or other
securities) of the Company; and (ii) in the case of any registration of
Registrable Securities on Form S-3 that are intended to be offered on a
continuous or delayed basis, subject to compliance with applicable SEC rules,
such 180-day period shall be extended for up to an additional 120 days, if
necessary, to keep the registration statement effective until all such
Registrable Securities are sold.
(c) Furnish
to each selling Holder such copies of each preliminary and final prospectus
as
such Holder may reasonably request to facilitate the public offering of its
Registrable Securities;
(d) Enter
into and perform its obligations under any reasonable underwriting agreement
required by the proposed underwriter, if any, in such form and containing
such
terms as are customary;
(e) Use
its
best efforts to register or qualify the securities covered by said registration
statement under the securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions as any
selling Holder may reasonably request provided the Company shall not be required
to qualify to do business or file a general consent to service of process
in
connection therewith;
(f) Immediately
notify each selling Holder, at any time when a prospectus relating to his,
her
or its Registrable Securities is required to be delivered under the Securities
Act, of the happening of any event (other than an event relating to a Holder
or
a plan of distribution delivered by a Holder) as a result of which such
prospectus contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any material
fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, to the
extent
required by the Securities Act, at the request of any such selling Holder,
prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter
delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus
will
not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;
(g) Cause
upon or immediately after the effectiveness of a registration all such
Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange or quotation
system on which the Common Stock of the Company are then listed or quoted;
5
(h) Make
available to each selling Holder, any underwriter participating in any
disposition pursuant to a registration statement, and any attorney, accountant
or other agent or representative retained by any such selling Holder or
underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents
and
properties of the Company, as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them
to
exercise their due diligence responsibility, subject to appropriate
confidentiality undertakings;
(i) use
its
best efforts to furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting registration
of
Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2, on the date on which
such Registrable Securities are sold to the underwriter, (i) an opinion,
dated
such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such
registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters
in
an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and
(ii)
a “comfort” letter dated such date, from the independent certified public
accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given
by
independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten
public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any;
(j) Otherwise
use its best efforts to comply with the securities laws of the United States
and
other applicable jurisdictions and all applicable rules and regulations of
the
Commission and comparable governmental agencies in other applicable
jurisdictions and make generally available to its Holders, in each case as
soon
as practicable, but not later than forty-five (45) days after the close of
the
period covered thereby or ninety (90) days after the closing of the fiscal
year,
as the case may be, an earnings statement of the Company which will satisfy
the
provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act;
(k) Provide
an institutional transfer agent and registrar and a CUSIP number for all
Registrable Securities on or before the effective date of the registration
statement; and
(l) Make
available for inspection by any Holder, any underwriter participating in
any
disposition pursuant to the registration statement, and any attorney,
accountant, or other agent of any Holder or underwriter, all financial and
other
records, pertinent corporate documents, and properties of the Company, and
cause
the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information
requested by any Holder, underwriter, attorney, accountant, or agent in
connection with the registration statement; provided that an appropriate
confidentiality agreement is executed by any such Holder, underwriter, attorney,
accountant or other agent.
4. Cooperation
by Prospective Sellers.
(a) Each
prospective seller of Registrable Securities shall furnish to the Company
in
writing such information as the Company may reasonably request from such
seller
in connection with any registration statement with respect to such Registrable
Securities.
(b) The
failure of any prospective seller of Registrable Securities to furnish any
information or documents in accordance with any provision contained in this
Agreement shall not affect the obligations of the Company under this Agreement
to any remaining sellers who furnish such information and documents unless,
in
the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Company and/or the underwriters,
such
failure impairs or adversely affects the offering or the legality of the
registration statement or causes the request not to meet the requirements
of
Section 2 of this Agreement.
6
(c) Upon
receipt of a notice (telephonic or written) from the Company or the underwriter
of the happening of an event which makes any statement made in a registration
statement or related prospectus covering Registrable Securities untrue or
which
requires the making of any changes in such registration statement or prospectus
so that they will not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit
to
state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the
statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made
not
misleading, the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration
statement shall discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities pursuant
to such registration statement until such Holders’ receipt of copies of the
supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated in Section 3(f)
hereof or until advised by the Company or the underwriters that dispositions
may
be resumed. If the Company gives any such notice, the time period mentioned
in
Section 3(b) shall be extended by the number of days elapsing
between the date of notice and the date that each seller receives copies
of the
supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by
Section 3(f).
(d) Each
Holder of Registrable Securities included in any registration statement will
effect sales of such securities in accordance with the plan of distribution
given to the Company.
(e) At
the
end of any period during which the Company is obligated to keep any registration
statement current and effective as provided in this Agreement, the Holders
of
Registrable Securities included in such registration statement shall discontinue
sales of shares pursuant to such registration statement, unless it receives
notice from the Company of its intention to continue effectiveness of such
registration statement with respect to such shares which remain unsold and
such
Holders shall notify the Company of the number of shares registered which
remain
unsold promptly upon expiration of the period during which the Company is
obligated to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement.
(f) No
Person may participate in any underwritten registration pursuant to this
Agreement unless such Person (i) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the
basis provided in any underwriting arrangements made with respect to such
registration and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of
attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably
required by the terms of such underwriting arrangements.
7
5. Indemnification;
Contribution.
(a) Incident
to any registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act
pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will, to the extent permitted by
law,
indemnify and hold harmless each Holder who offers or sells any such Registrable
Securities in connection with such registration statement (including its
partners (including partners of partners and stockholders of any such partners),
and directors, officers, stockholders, affiliates, employees, representatives
and agents of any of them, and each person who controls any of them within
the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the
Exchange Act), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, reasonable
expenses and liabilities, joint or several (including any reasonable
investigation, legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and
any
amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim
asserted, as the same are incurred), to which they, or any of them, may become
subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state
statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such
losses,
claims, damages or liabilities arise out of or are based on (i) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement [of a material fact] contained in such
registration statement (including any related preliminary or definitive
prospectus, or any amendment or supplement to such registration statement
or
prospectus), (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state in such document
a
material fact required to be stated in it or necessary to make the statements
in
it not misleading; provided, however, that the Company will not be
liable to the extent that (1) such loss, claim, damage, expense or liability
arises from and is based on an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue
statement or omission made in reliance on and in conformity with information
furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder in accordance
with Section 4(a) of this Agreement for use in such registration
statement, or (2) in the case of a sale directly by such Holder (including
a
sale of Registrable Securities through any underwriter retained by such Holder
to engage in a distribution solely on behalf of such Holder), 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 failed to deliver a copy of the final or amended
prospectus at or prior to the confirmation of the sale of the 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, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by any other
party
hereto, of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law
or any
rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act
or any
state securities law. With respect to such untrue statement or omission or
alleged untrue statement or omission in the information furnished in writing
to
the Company by or on behalf of such Holder in accordance with
Section 4(a) of this Agreement for use in such registration
statement, such Holder will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold
harmless the Company (including its directors, officers, employees,
representatives and agents), each other Holder (including its partners
(including partners of partners and stockholders of such partners) and
directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents of any of them,
and
each person who controls any of them within the meaning of Section 15 of
the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), from and against any
and all losses, claims, damages, reasonable expenses and liabilities, joint
or
several (including any reasonable investigation, legal and other expenses
incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action,
suit or proceeding or any claim asserted, as the same are incurred), to which
they, or any of them, may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange
Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law
or
otherwise, provided, however, that the indemnification obligations
of the Holder contained in this subsection 5(a) shall not apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action
if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided, further, that, in no
event shall any indemnity under this subsection 5(a) exceed the net
proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in the case of
fraud
or willful misconduct by such Holder.
8
(b) If
the
indemnification provided for in Section 5(a) above for any reason is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified
party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities
referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under this
Section 5, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party
thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified
party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities
(i)
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received
by the Company and the other Holders from the offering of the Registrable
Securities 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 benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative
fault of the Company and the other Holders in connection with the statements
or
omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, expenses or
liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The
relative benefits received by the Company and the Holders shall be deemed
to be
in the same respective proportions that the net proceeds from the offering
received by the Company and the Holders, in each case as set forth in the
table
on the cover page of the applicable prospectus, bear to the aggregate public
offering price of the Registrable Securities. The relative fault of the Company
and the Holders shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether
the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission
or
alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied
by or
on behalf of the Company or the Holders and the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge and access to information.
The
Company and the Holders agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5(b) were
determined by pro rata or per capita allocation or by any other method of
allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred
to in the immediately preceding paragraph. No person found guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities
Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not found
guilty
of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
(c) The
amount paid by an indemnifying party or payable to an indemnified party as
a
result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in this
Section 5 shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set
forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified
party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim,
payable as the same are incurred. The indemnification and contribution provided
for in this Section 5 will remain in full force and effect
regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified parties
or any officer, director, employee, agent or controlling person of the
indemnified parties. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim
or
litigation, shall enter into a consent of entry of any judgment or enter
into a
settlement without the consent of the indemnified party, which consent will
not
be unreasonably withheld. Any indemnified party that proposes to assert the
right to be indemnified under this Section 5 will, promptly after
receipt of notice of commencement or threat of any claim or action against
such
party in respect of which a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party
under this Section 5 notify the indemnifying party in writing (such
written notice, an “Indemnification Notice”) of the commencement or
threat of such action, enclosing a copy of all papers served or notices received
(if applicable), but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will
not
relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that the indemnifying party
may have to any indemnified party under the foregoing provisions of this
Section 5 unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results
in the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses by the indemnifying party.
The indemnified party will have the right to retain its own counsel in any
such
action if (i) the employment of counsel by the indemnified party has been
authorized by the indemnifying party, (ii) the indemnified party’s counsel,
shall have reasonably concluded that there is a reasonable likelihood of
a
conflict of interest between the indemnifying party and the indemnified party
in
the conduct of the defense of such action or (iii) the indemnifying party
shall
not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action within
a
reasonable period of time following its receipt of the Indemnification Notice,
in each of which cases the fees and expenses of the indemnified party’s separate
counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party; provided,
however,
that the indemnified
party shall agree to repay any expenses so advanced hereunder if it is
ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the indemnified
party to whom such expenses are advanced is not entitled to be indemnified;
and
provided, further, that so long as the indemnified party has
reasonably concluded that no conflict of interest exists, the indemnifying
party
may assume the defense of any action hereunder with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the indemnified party.
9
(d) In
the
event of an underwritten offering of Registrable Securities under this
Agreement, the Company shall enter into standard indemnification and
underwriting agreements with the underwriter thereof.
6. Right
to Delay. For one period not to exceed 90 days in
any twelve (12) month period, the Company shall not be obligated to prepare
and
file, or prevented from delaying or abandoning, a Registration Statement
pursuant to this Agreement at any time when the Company, in its good faith
judgment, reasonably believes:
(a) that
the filing thereof at the time requested, or the offering of Registrable
Securities pursuant thereto, would materially and adversely affect (i) a
pending
or scheduled public offering of the Company’s securities, (ii) any significant
acquisition, merger, recapitalization. consolidation, reorganization or other
similar transaction by or of the Company, (iii) pre-existing and continuing
negotiations, discussions or pending proposals with respect to any of the
foregoing transactions, or (iv) the financial condition of the Company in
view
of the disclosure of any pending or threatened litigation, claim, assessment
or
governmental investigation which may be required thereby; and
(b) that
the failure to disclose any material information with respect to the foregoing
would cause a violation of the Securities Act or Exchange Act.
The
Company shall not register any securities for the account of
itself or any other stockholder during such 90-day period other than a
registration statement relating either to the sale of securities to employees
of
the Company pursuant to a stock option, stock purchase or similar plan or
an SEC
Rule 145 transaction, a registration on any form that does not include
substantially the same information as would be required to be included in
a
registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities, or
a
registration in which the only Common Stock being registered is Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of debt securities that are also being
registered).
7. Transferability
of Registration Rights. The registration rights set forth in this
Agreement are transferable to any transferee of Registrable Securities. Each
subsequent Holder of Registrable Securities must consent in writing to be
bound
by the terms and conditions of this Agreement in order to acquire the rights
granted pursuant to this Agreement.
10
8. Rights
Which May Be Granted to Subsequent Investors. Other than
transferees of Registrable Securities under Section 7 hereof, the
Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Holders of a
majority of the outstanding Registrable Securities, enter into any agreement
with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company which
would allow such holder or prospective holder to include such securities
in any
registration unless under the terms of such agreement, such holder or
prospective holder may include such securities in any such registration only
to
the extent that the inclusion of such securities will not reduce the amount
of
the Registrable Securities of the Holders that are included.
9. Right
of First Offer. Subject to the terms and conditions specified in
this Section 9, and applicable securities laws, in the event the
Company proposes to offer or sell any New Securities, the Company shall first
make an offering of such New Securities to PBT or its designee in accordance
with the following provisions of this Section 9. PBT or its designee
shall be entitled to apportion the right of first offer hereby granted it
among
itself and its partners, members and Affiliates in such proportions as it
deems
appropriate.
(a) The
Company shall deliver a notice, in accordance with the provisions of
Section 10(a) hereof, (the “Offer Notice”) to PBT stating (i) its
bona fide intention to offer such New Securities, (ii) the number of such
New
Securities to be offered, and (iii) the price and terms, if any, upon which
it
proposes to offer such New Securities.
(b) By
written notification received by the Company, within twenty (20) calendar
days
after mailing of the Offer Notice, PBT or its designee may elect to purchase
or
obtain, at the price and on the terms specified in the Offer Notice, up to
that
portion of such New Securities which equals the proportion that the number
of
shares of Common Stock issued and held, or issuable upon conversion of the
Series A Preferred Stock (and any other securities convertible into, or
otherwise exercisable or exchangeable for, shares of Common Stock) then held,
by
PBT bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock of the Company then
outstanding (assuming full conversion and exercise of all convertible or
exercisable securities).
(c) If
all
New Securities referred to in the Offer Notice are not elected to be purchased
or obtained as provided in Section 9(b) hereof, the Company may,
during the sixty (60) day period following the expiration of the period provided
in Section 9(b) hereof, offer the remaining unsubscribed portion of
such New Securities (collectively, the “Refused Securities”) to any person or
persons at a price not less than, and upon terms no more favorable to the
offeree than, those specified in the Offer Notice. If the Company does not
enter
into an agreement for the sale of the New Securities within such period,
or if
such agreement is not consummated within sixty (60) days following the execution
thereof, the right provided hereunder shall be deemed to be revived and such
New
Securities shall not be offered unless first reoffered to PBT or its designee
in
accordance with this Section 9.
(d) The
right of first offer in this Section 9 shall not be applicable to
New Securities issued:
i. upon
conversion of shares
of Preferred Stock;
11
ii.
|
to
officers, directors, employees and consultants of the Company
pursuant to
stock incentive plans, or other stock arrangements that have
been approved
by the Board of Directors of the Company including the directors
elected
by the holders of a majority of the Series A Preferred Stock
(the “Series
A Directors”);
|
iii.
|
as
a dividend or distribution on the Corporation’s Common Stock or Preferred
Stock;
|
iv.
|
upon
the written consent of PBT that expressly states that the right
of first
offer in this Section 9 shall not apply to such New
Securities;
|
v.
|
upon
the exercise or conversion of any options or other convertible
securities
outstanding as of the date hereof;
|
vi.
|
pursuant
to a loan arrangement or debt financing from a bank, equipment
lessor or
similar financial institution approved by the Board of Directors,
including the Series A Directors;
or
|
vii.
|
in
connection with strategic transactions (but excluding any merger,
consolidation, acquisition or similar business combination) that
have been
approved by the Board of Directors of the Corporation including
the Series
A Directors.
|
(e) The
right of first offer set forth in this Section 9 may not be assigned
or transferred except that such right is assignable by PBT to any Affiliate
of
PBT.
10. Miscellaneous.
(a) Notices.
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices, requests,
demands, claims, and other communications hereunder will be in writing. Any

following the date sent when sent by overnight delivery and (c) five (5)

other address(es) as PBT or the Company may designate by ten (10) days advance
written notice to the other parties hereto.
(b) Entire
Agreement. This Agreement, together with the
instruments and other documents hereby contemplated to be executed and delivered
in connection herewith, contains the entire agreement and understanding of
the
parties hereto, and supersedes any prior agreements or understandings between
or
among them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.
(c) Successors
and Assigns. The terms and
conditions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit
of and be binding upon the respective successors and assigns of the
parties. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer
upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors
and
assigns any rights, remedies, obligations, or liabilities under or by reason
of
this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.
12
(d) Successor
Indemnification. In the event that the Company or any of its
successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other entity
and
shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such
consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially
all of
its properties and assets to any person or entity, then, and in each such
case,
to the extent necessary, proper provision shall be made so that the successors
and assigns of the Company assume the obligations of the Company with respect
to
indemnification of members of the Board of Directors as in effect immediately
prior to such transaction, whether in the Company’s bylaws, Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation, or elsewhere, as the case may be.
(e) Amendments
and Waivers. Except as otherwise expressly set
forth in this Agreement, any term of this Agreement may be amended and the
observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally
or in a
particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), with the
written
consent of the Company and the Holders of a majority of the Preferred Stock.
No
waivers of or exceptions to any term, condition or provision of this Agreement,
in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or construed as, a further
or continuing waiver of any such term, condition or provision.
(f) Counterparts;
Facsimile Execution. This Agreement may be
executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original
but all of which shall constitute but one and the same instrument. One or
more
counterparts of this Agreement may be delivered via telecopier, with the
intention that they shall have the same effect as an original counterpart
hereof. Facsimile execution and delivery of this Agreement is legal, valid
and
binding for all purposes.
(g) Captions.
The captions of the sections, subsections and paragraphs of this
Agreement have been added for convenience only and shall not be deemed to
be a
part of this Agreement.
(h) Severability.
Each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner
as
to validate and give effect thereto to the fullest lawful extent, but if
any
provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
to be invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall
be
ineffective only to the extent so determined and such invalidity or
unenforceability shall not affect the remainder of such provision or the
remaining provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that
the Company and the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities shall
negotiate in good faith to attempt to implement an equitable adjustment in
the
provisions of this Agreement with a view toward effecting the purposes of
this
Agreement by replacing the provision that is invalid or unenforceable with
a
valid and enforceable provision the economic effect of which comes as close
as
possible to that of the provision that has been found to be invalid and
unenforceable.
(i) Governing
Law. The execution, interpretation, and
performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State
of
California without giving effect to any choice in conflict of law provision
or
rule (whether of the State of California or any other jurisdiction) that
would
cause the application of the law of any other jurisdiction other than the
State
of California.
13
(j) Dispute
Resolution. Any unresolved controversy or claim arising out of or
relating to this Agreement, except as (i) otherwise provided in this Agreement,
or (ii) any such controversies or claims arising out of either party’s
intellectual property rights for which a provisional remedy or equitable
relief
is sought, shall be submitted to arbitration by one arbitrator mutually agreed
upon by the parties, and if no agreement can be reached within 30 days after
names of potential arbitrators have been proposed by the American Arbitration
Association (the “AAA”), then by one arbitrator having reasonable experience in
corporate finance transactions of the type provided for in this Agreement
and
who is chosen by the AAA. The arbitration shall take place in San Francisco,
California, in accordance with the AAA rules then in effect, and judgment
upon
any award rendered in such arbitration will be binding and may be entered
in any
court having jurisdiction thereof. There shall be limited discovery prior
to the
arbitration hearing as follows: (a) exchange of witness lists and copies
of
documentary evidence and documents relating to or arising out of the issues
to
be arbitrated, (b) depositions of all party witnesses and (c) such other
depositions as may be allowed by the arbitrators upon a showing of good cause.
Depositions shall be conducted in accordance with the California Code of
Civil
Procedure, the arbitrator shall be required to provide in writing to the
parties
the basis for the award or order of such arbitrator, and a court reporter
shall
record all hearings, with such record constituting the official transcript
of
such proceedings. The prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable
attorney’s fees, costs, and necessary disbursements in addition to any other
relief to which such party may be entitled. Each of the parties to this
Agreement consents to personal jurisdiction for any equitable action sought
in
the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California or any court
of
the State of California having subject matter jurisdiction.
(k) Specific
Performance. The parties hereto agree that
irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement
was not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties
hereto shall be entitled to seek specific performance of the terms hereof
(without necessity of posting a bond in connection therewith), in addition
to
any other remedy at law or equity otherwise permitted hereunder.

Re:

Ladies
and Gentlemen:
We
have
acted as counsel to WinWin Gaming, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the

in
connection with that certain Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement,
dated

capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given
to
them in the Agreement. Items (a) through (e), below are hereinafter referred
to
collectively as the “Transaction Documents.”
For
purposes of the opinions expressed herein, we have examined, among other

opinions set forth herein, we have relied solely upon certificates or other
comparable documents of officers and other representatives of the Company and
upon the representations and warranties of the Company contained in the
Transaction Documents. While we have not conducted any independent investigation
to determine facts upon which our opinions are based or to obtain information
about which this letter advises you, we confirm that we do not have any
knowledge which has caused us to conclude that our reliance and assumptions
cited in this paragraph are unwarranted. The term “knowledge”
whenever it is used in this letter with respect to our firm means the current,
actual knowledge of the Xxxxxx Xxxx & Priest LLP attorneys responsible for
handling the transaction contemplated by the Agreement.
In
such
examination, we have assumed, with your permission and without independent
investigation, (i) the genuineness of all signatures; (ii) the legal
capacity of each individual signatory to such documents; (iii) the
authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals; (iv) the
conformity to originals of all documents submitted to us as certified, facsimile
or photostatic copies; (v) the authenticity of the originals of such
copies; (vi) the due incorporation and organization, valid existence and
good standing of PBT under the laws of the State of Delaware; (vii) the due
execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by PBT; (viii) the
corporate power and authority of PBT to conduct its business and own its
properties and to enter into the Transaction Documents and perform its
obligations thereunder; (ix) that each of the Transaction Documents has
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of PBT and is the legal,
valid and binding obligation of PBT, enforceable against PBT in accordance
with
its terms; (x) that, except as to the opinion in paragraph 9, each of the
Company and PBT has obtained all necessary governmental permits and approvals
for conducting its operations; and (xi) the identity and capacity of all
individuals acting or purporting to act as public officials.
2
Based
solely upon the examination described above, and subject to the comments,
assumptions, qualifications, limitations and exceptions stated herein and in
the
Disclosure Schedule to the Agreement, we are of the opinion that:
1. The
Company has been duly incorporated and is a validly existing corporation in
good
standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.
2. The
Company has the requisite corporate power to own its property and assets and
to
conduct its business as it is currently being conducted.
3. The
Company is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in
good
standing in the state of Nevada.
4. The
Company has the requisite corporate power to execute, deliver and perform its
obligations under the Transaction Documents.
5. Each
of the Transaction Documents (other than the Investment Option and the Restated
Certificate, each of which are being opined on by the Company’s special Delaware
counsel) has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by the
Company and each such agreement constitutes a valid and binding agreement of
the
Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its respective terms.
6. As
of immediately prior to the [Initial Closing/Second Closing], the Company’s
authorized capital stock consists of (a) [750,000,000] shares of Common Stock,
par value $0.01 per share, of which [•] shares are issued and outstanding, and
(b) [60,000,000] shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, all
of
which have been designated Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.01, of which
[•] shares are issued and outstanding. The outstanding shares of Common Stock
and of Preferred Stock have been duly authorized and validly issued and are
fully paid and nonassessable. The [Initial Closing/Second Closing] WinWin Shares
have been duly authorized, and upon issuance and delivery against payment
therefor in accordance with the terms of the Joint Venture Agreement, the WinWin
Shares will be validly issued, outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable. The
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the [Initial Closing/Second
Closing] Shares have been duly authorized, and when issued upon conversion
in
accordance with the terms of the [Initial Closing/Second Closing] Shares, will
be validly issued, outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable. To our knowledge,
there are no options, warrants, conversion privileges, preemptive rights or
other rights presently outstanding to purchase any of the authorized but
unissued capital stock of the Company, other than the conversion privileges
of
the Series A Preferred Stock, rights created in connection with the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents, warrants to purchase [•] (___) shares
of Common Stock and [•] (______) shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance
under the WinWin 2003 Stock Plan.
7. The
execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the
issuance of the Shares pursuant thereto do not violate any provision of the
Restated Certificate or Bylaws, do not constitute a default under or a material
breach of any material agreement that is listed on Annex
A1 of
this
opinion letter and do not violate (a) any governmental statute, rule or
regulation which in our experience is typically applicable to transactions
of
the nature contemplated by the Transaction Documents or (b) to our knowledge,
any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award which
has
been entered against the Company, in each case to the extent the violation
of
which would materially and adversely affect the Company and its subsidiaries,
taken as a whole.
8. To
our knowledge, there is no action, proceeding or investigation pending or
overtly threatened against the Company before any court or administrative agency
that questions the validity of the Joint Venture Agreement or the Restated
Certificate.
1 Annex
A
will
include a list of all of the material agreements set forth in the exhibit
index
of the Company’s annual report on form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2005.

9. All
consents, approvals, authorizations, or orders of, and filings, registrations,
and qualifications with any U.S. Federal or California regulatory authority
or
governmental body required for the issuance of the Shares, have been made or
obtained, except (a) for the filing of a Form D pursuant to Securities and
Exchange Commission Regulation D and (b) any required under applicable state
securities law.
10. The
offer and sale of the [Initial Closing/Second Closing] Shares are exempt from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, subject
to the timely filing of a Form D pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission
Regulation D.
Our
opinion as to enforceability set forth in paragraph 5 above is subject
to:
(a) limitations
imposed by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws
relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditor’s rights generally,
including, without limitation, laws relating to fraudulent transfers or
conveyances, preferences and equitable subordination;
(b) general
principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered
in
a proceeding in equity or at law);
(c) the
qualification that certain rights, remedies, waivers and procedures contained
in
the Transaction Documents may be limited or rendered unenforceable by applicable
laws or judicial decisions governing such provisions, but such laws and judicial
decisions do not, in our opinion, render the Transaction Documents, as a whole,
unenforceable or make the remedies and procedures that are available to the
parties legally inadequate for the practical realization of the principal
benefits purported to be provided to them by the Transaction
Documents;
(d) the
qualification that certain provisions contained in the Transaction Documents
may
be unenforceable in whole or in part if such provisions impose restrictions
or
burdens upon the debtor and it cannot be demonstrated that enforcement of such
restrictions or burdens is reasonably necessary for the protection of the
creditor or if the creditor’s enforcement of such provisions would violate the
creditor’s implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing;
(e) the
possible requirement that actions taken, or not taken, by any party pursuant
to
the Transaction Documents be taken, or not taken, in good faith;
(f) the
qualification that certain provisions contained in the Transaction Documents
regarding the rights or remedies available to any party for violations or
breaches of any provisions which are immaterial or for violations or breaches
of
any provisions if such enforcement would be unreasonable under the
circumstances, may be unenforceable in whole or in part;
(g) the
unenforceability under certain circumstances of (i) waivers or provisions
imposing penalties or liquidated damages and (ii) provisions purporting to
release or exculpate any party from liability for its acts or omissions, or
purporting to impose a duty upon any party to indemnify any other party when
any
claimed damages result from the negligence, gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the party seeking such indemnity;
(h) the
qualification that certain provisions of any such document to the effect that
rights or remedies are not exclusive, that every right or remedy is cumulative
and may be exercised in addition to any other right or remedy, that the election
of some particular remedy does not preclude recourse to one or more others
or
that failure to exercise or delay in exercising rights or remedies will not
operate as a waiver of any such right or remedy, may be unenforceable in whole
or in part;
4
(i) the
qualification that provisions in any such document that contain a waiver of
(A) the benefits of statutory, regulatory, or constitutional rights, unless
and to the extent the statute, regulation or constitution explicitly allows
such
waivers, (B) unknown future defenses, and (C) rights to damages, may
be unenforceable in whole or in part;
(j) limitations
imposed by California Civil Code Section 1670.5 on the enforceability of
provisions which a court finds as a matter of law to have been unconscionable
at
the time when made;
(k) the
qualification that certain provisions which require written amendments or
waivers of documents may be unenforceable in whole or in part insofar as certain
oral or other modifications, amendments or waivers may be effectively agreed
upon by the parties or the doctrine of promissory estoppel may apply in certain
circumstances;
(l) the
unenforceability under certain circumstances of any provision insofar as it
provides for the payment or reimbursement of costs and expenses of
indemnification for claims, losses or liabilities in excess of a reasonable
amount or any provision purporting to require the payment of attorneys’ fees,
expenses or costs, where such provisions do not satisfy the requirements of
California Civil Code Section 1717; and
(m) the
unenforceability, in certain circumstances, of consent to jurisdiction clauses
and forum selection clauses.
Furthermore,
notwithstanding the opinion specified in paragraph 5 above, we are not opining
as to the authorization, execution, delivery or enforceability of, and the
opinion specified in paragraph 5 shall not apply to, the Investment Option
or
the Restated Certificate. We understand that the Company’s special Delaware
counsel is rendering an opinion of even date herewith that addresses the
enforceability of the Investment Option and the Restated
Certificate.
We
are
members of the bar of the State of California and we express no opinion on
the
laws of any jurisdiction other than the federal laws of the United States and
the laws of the State of California. We also express no opinion as to
(i) any governmental rule or other legal requirement relating to labor,
employee rights and benefits, including without limitation the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and taxation, (ii) any
choice-of-law or conflict of laws matters, (iii) any patent, trademark or
copyright statute, rules or regulations, (iv) any provision appointing one
party as an attorney-in-fact of an adverse party, (v) the effect of any
state or federal antitrust laws, including, without limitation, the
Xxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as currently in effect,
(vi) any securities laws, rules or regulations (except for the opinions set
forth in paragraphs 6 and 10 hereof), or (vii) the Company’s rights in or
title to any property or assets.
The
opinions expressed herein are solely for your benefit in connection with the
above transactions and may not be relied upon in any manner or for any purpose
by any other person. This opinion speaks only as of the date hereof, and we
assume no obligation to advise you of any changes to this opinion that may
come
to our attention after the date hereof. This opinion is limited to the matters
expressly stated herein and no opinion or other statement may be inferred or
implied beyond the matters expressly stated herein.

INVESTMENT
OPTION AGREEMENT
This
INVESTMENT OPTION AGREEMENT, dated as of ____________,
2006,
by and between SOLIDUS NETWORKS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Optionee”)
and
WINWIN GAMING, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).
BACKGROUND
The
Optionee and the Company are parties to an Amended and Restated Joint Venture
Agreement, dated April 14, 2006 (the “JV
Agreement”).
It is
a condition precedent of the Initial Closing (as defined in the JV Agreement)
that the Company grant to the Optionee this option to acquire an additional
number of shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock such that upon
exercise of this option, the Optionee will be the beneficial owner of a
percentage of the Company’s outstanding common stock on a Fully Diluted Basis
(as defined below) indicated by the Optionee on the Option Notice (as defined
below) after giving effect to the exercise of this Option (the “Election
Percentage”), which Election Percentage may not be greater than eighty percent
(80%).
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, mutual covenants herein set forth
and other good and valuable consideration, subject to the terms and conditions
herein, the Company and the Optionee hereby agree as follows:
1. Grant
of Option; Term; Exercise Price.
(a) Subject
to the terms and conditions herein, the Company hereby grants to the Optionee
an
option (the “Option”)
to
purchase a number of shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock (the
“Option
Shares”)
that,
together with other securities of the Company held by the Optionee at the time
of exercise, constitute a percentage of the common stock of the Company on
a
Fully Diluted Basis after giving effect to the exercise of the Option equal
to
the Election Percentage. For purposes of this Agreement, “Fully
Diluted Basis”
means
the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock outstanding assuming, for
such purpose, the exercise, exchange, or conversion into Common Stock of the
Company of all options, warrants and other securities of the Company that are
exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into, Common Stock at the time
of the exercise of the Option.
(b) The
Option is exercisable by Optionee’s delivery to the Company of an Exercise
Notice at any time from the date of this Investment Option Agreement until
Midnight Pacific Time on the date that is third anniversary of the date of
this
Investment Option Agreement (the “Exercise
Period”);
provided, however, that the Option shall automatically terminate upon the
closing of the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Optionee,
or upon the closing of a merger, consolidation or similar transaction in which
the stockholders of the Optionee as of immediately prior to the transaction
do
not own a majority of the voting power of the surviving company as of
immediately following such transaction.
(c) The
exercise price per Option Share (the “Exercise
Price”)
shall
be equal to the fair market value of a share of the Company’s Series A Preferred
Stock as of the date of exercise as determined by an Appraisal (as defined
below). Whenever this Option calls for an “Appraisal,”
the
fair market value of the Series A Preferred Stock will be determined on the
basis of the value of the percentage of the entire Company represented by the
Option Shares at the time of determination in accordance with the following
mechanism. A representative of the Optionee and a representative of the Company
shall attempt to negotiate a mutually agreeable fair market value within thirty
(30) days of the date that the Company receives an Exercise Notice from the
Optionee. If the representatives are unable to reach an agreement within such
time period, each of the Optionee and the Company will at its own cost appoint
a
nationally recognized investment banking firm as an appraiser of the value
of
the Option Shares. Each of the investment banking firms shall separately
determine, within forty-five (45) days of the end of such thirty (30) day
period, the fair market value of the shares taking into account the fact that
the exercise of the Option may involve the acquisition of a controlling interest
in the Company by the Optionee to the extent that the Optionee does not already
own a controlling interest in the Company. Each of the investment banking firms
shall express its valuation as a single number in US dollars. The mid-point
of
the valuations (the “Mid-Point”)
will
then be calculated by dividing the sum of the separate valuations by two (2).
To
the extent that each valuation is within the range which is 10% above or 10%
below the Mid-Point (the “Range”),
the
Mid-Point shall be used. If either or both of the valuations falls outside
of
the Range, then the parties shall jointly choose (or if the parties are unable
to so jointly choose within three (3) business days, the two appraisers shall
choose) a disinterested nationally recognized investment banking firm as a
third
appraiser, at a cost to be shared on an equal basis between the parties, to
complete an appraisal within an additional forty-five (45) days, which appraisal
shall be equal to or somewhere between the two prior appraisals and such third
appraisal shall be the final and binding determination of the fair market value.
(d) The
Exercise Price shall be payable in cash; provided, however, that if at the
time
the Option is exercised there is a public trading market for the Optionee’s
common stock, then, at the option of the Optionee, the Optionee may pay the
Exercise Price in cash or registered (“free-trading”) shares of the Optionee’s
common stock, or a combination thereof. If the Optionee elects to pay the
Exercise Price, in whole or in part, by delivery of registered shares of the
Optionee’s common stock, then such shares shall be valued at the average closing
price of the Optionee’s common stock over a period of twenty (20) trading days
prior to the exercise of the Option.
2
(e) this
Investment Option Agreement shall terminate and cease to be effective on the
date on which the JV Agreement is validly terminated in accordance with Section
13 thereof.
2. Exercise
Procedure.
(a) Procedure.
(i) The
Optionee may exercise the Option, in whole, but not in part, at any time during
the Exercise Period, by delivering to the Company a written notice duly signed
by the Optionee indicating that the Optionee is exercising the Option and the
Election Percentage (the “Exercise
Notice’).
The
Option shall not be deemed exercised, however, until full payment in an amount
equal to the full purchase price for the Option Shares has been made. Optionee
may withdraw the Exercise Notice and elect not to exercise the Option at any
time before making full payment.
(ii) Following
receipt by the Company of such Exercise Notice and full payment of the Exercise
Price, the Company shall issue, as soon as practicable, a stock certificate
for
the Option Shares in the name as designated by the Optionee and deliver the
certificate to the Optionee.
(b) Other
Terms.
Other
than the terms regarding pricing and consideration set forth in Section 1 of
this Investment Option Agreement, the issuance and sale of the Option Shares
shall be subject to the same conditions of and on the same terms as the issuance
and sale of the Second Closing WinWin Shares in the Second Closing (as such
terms are defined in the JV Agreement).
(c) Legend.
If the
Option Shares are not then covered by a registration statement, each certificate
for the Option Shares shall bear a legend that is substantially similar to
the
following:
“THESE
SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED. SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED
UNLESS THE REGISTRATION PROVISIONS OF SAID ACT HAVE BEEN COMPLIED WITH OR UNLESS
THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF ITS COUNSEL THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS
NOT
REQUIRED.”
3. Rights
of Optionee.
The
Optionee shall not have any rights to dividends or any other rights of a
stockholder with respect to any Option Shares until such Option Shares shall
have been issued to Optionee (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the
transfer books of the Company).
3
4. Notices.
Any
notices and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement
shall be in writing and shall be delivered (i) personally by hand or by courier,
(ii) mailed by United States first-class mail, postage prepaid or (iii) sent

Resolution.
Any
unresolved controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement,

rights for which a provisional remedy or equitable relief is sought, shall
be
submitted to arbitration by one arbitrator mutually agreed upon by the parties,
and if no agreement can be reached within 30 days after names of potential
arbitrators have been proposed by the American Arbitration Association (the
“AAA”), then by one arbitrator having reasonable experience in corporate finance
transactions of the type provided for in this Agreement and who is chosen by
the
AAA. The arbitration shall take place in San Francisco, California, in
accordance with the AAA rules then in effect, and judgment upon any award
rendered in such arbitration will be binding and may be entered in any court
having jurisdiction thereof. There shall be limited discovery prior to the
arbitration hearing as follows: (a) exchange of witness lists and copies of
documentary evidence and documents relating to or arising out of the issues
to
be arbitrated, (b) depositions of all party witnesses and (c) such other
depositions as may be allowed by the arbitrators upon a showing of good cause.
Depositions shall be conducted in accordance with the California Code of Civil
Procedure, the arbitrator shall be required to provide in writing to the parties
the basis for the award or order of such arbitrator, and a court reporter shall
record all hearings, with such record constituting the official transcript
of
such proceedings. The prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable
attorney’s fees, costs, and necessary disbursements in addition to any other
relief to which such party may be entitled. Each of the parties to this
Agreement consents to personal jurisdiction for any equitable action sought
in
the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California or any court
of
the State of California having subject matter jurisdiction.
7. Entire
Agreement.
This
Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with
respect to the matters herein, and cannot be amended, modified or terminated
except by an agreement in writing executed by the parties hereto.
8. Governing
Law.

thereof.

approval, authorization or permit of, or filing with or notification to, any

Waiver.
(i) No
failure on the part of any Person to exercise any power, right, privilege or
remedy under the Agreement, and no delay on the part of any Person in exercising
any power, right, privilege or remedy under the Agreement, shall operate as
a
waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial
exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other
or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or
remedy.

Person

of each class of capital stock of the Corporation.
A. Common
Stock.
1. General.
The
voting, dividend and liquidation rights of the holders of Common Stock are
subject to and qualified by the rights of the holders of Preferred Stock
of any
series as may be designated by the Board of Directors upon any issuance of
Preferred Stock of any series.
2. Increase
of Authorized Shares.
Except
as otherwise provided in this Article, the number of authorized shares of
Common
Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof
then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of
the
stock of the Corporation entitled to vote, irrespective of the provisions
of
Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL.
3. Voting.
The
holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held at all
meetings of stockholders (and written actions in lieu of meetings). There
shall
be no cumulative voting.
4. Dividends.
Dividends may be declared and paid on Common Stock from funds lawfully available
therefor as and when determined by the Board of Directors and subject to
any
preferential dividend rights of any then outstanding Preferred
Stock.
5. Liquidation.
Upon

the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, subject to
any

6. Redemption.
The
Common Stock is redeemable in accordance with Article FIFTH, Section F,

B. Preferred
Stock.
Preferred
Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, each of such

Authority
is hereby expressly granted to the Board of Directors from time to time to
issue
Preferred Stock in one or more series, and in connection with the creation
of
any such series, by resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of
the
shares thereof, to determine and fix such voting powers, full or limited,
or no
voting powers, and such designations, preferences and relative participating,
optional or other special rights, and qualifications, limitations or
restrictions thereof, including without limitation thereof, dividend rights,
special voting rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation
preferences, as shall be stated and expressed in such resolutions, all to

series of Preferred Stock may provide that such series shall be superior
or rank
equally or be junior to Preferred Stock of any other series to the extent
permitted by law. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Amended
and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the by-laws of the Corporation or
any
agreement in existence from time-to-time among the stockholders of the
Corporation and the Corporation, no vote of the holders of Preferred Stock
or
Common Stock shall be a prerequisite to the issuance of any shares of any
series
of Preferred Stock authorized by and complying with the conditions of this
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the right to have such
vote
being expressly waived by all present and future holders of the capital stock
of
the Corporation.
C. Series A
Preferred Stock.
A
series
of Preferred Stock consisting of Sixty Million (60,000,000) shares and having
the following voting powers, designations, preferences and relative,
participating, optional or other rights and the following qualifications,
limitations and restrictions is hereby created from the authorized but unissued
shares of the Preferred Stock.
1. Designation.
The
distinctive designation of such series is “Series A Preferred Stock”
(hereinafter referred to as the “Series A Preferred Stock”).
2. Rank.
The
Series A Preferred Stock shall, with respect to dividend rights and rights
on
liquidation, winding up and dissolution, rank (a) prior to any other series
of
Preferred Stock hereafter established by the Board of Directors, and (b)
prior
to the Common Stock.
3. Dividends.
The
holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, out
of any
funds legally available therefor, noncumulative dividends, payable at a rate
per
annum equal to 8% of the Series A Original Issue Price (as defined below),
when
and if declared by the Corporation’s Board of Directors. No dividends on the
Common Stock shall be paid unless, in addition to the amount set forth in
the
previous sentence, the amount of such dividend on the Common Stock is also
paid
on the Series A Preferred Stock on an as-converted to Common Stock
basis.
3
4. Liquidation
Preference.
Upon
a
Liquidation Event (as defined below), the holders of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock are entitled to receive out of assets of the Corporation
available for distribution to stockholders, before any distribution of assets
is
made to holders of Common Stock, liquidating distributions in the amount
of
[$7.91] per share (as equitably adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations,
splits, recapitalizations or similar events with respect to such shares)
(the
“Series A Original Issue Price”), plus (i) an additional amount equal to eight
percent (8%) of the Series A Original Issue Price per year, calculated based
on
the number of days elapsed prior to the Liquidation Event and (ii) any declared,
but unpaid dividends (the amount payable to a holder of Series A Preferred
Stock
upon a Liquidation Event as aforesaid being referred to herein as the
“Liquidation Preference”).
If
upon a
Liquidation Event, the Liquidation Preference and any amounts payable upon
a
Liquidation Event to other shares of stock of the Corporation ranking as
to any
such distribution on a parity with the Series A Preferred Stock are not paid
in
full, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and of such other shares
will
share ratably in any such distribution of assets of the Corporation in
proportion to the full respective preferential amounts to which they are
entitled.
For
purposes of this Article FOURTH, a “Liquidation Event” is any liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, either voluntary or involuntary,
and unless otherwise determined by the election of the holders of a majority
of
the then outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, shall be deemed to be occasioned
by, or to include, (A) the acquisition of the Corporation by another entity
by
means of any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without
limitation, any reorganization, merger, consolidation, or other transaction
in
which control of the Corporation is transferred, but, excluding any merger
effected exclusively for the purpose of changing the domicile of the
Corporation) unless the Corporation’s capital stock of record as constituted
immediately prior to such acquisition will, immediately after such acquisition
represent at least 50% of the voting power of the surviving or acquiring
entity
or (B) a sale, lease, transfer or other disposition, in a single transaction
or
series of related transactions of all or substantially all of the assets
and/or
the intellectual property of the Corporation and its subsidiaries, taken
as a
whole.
5. Voting
Rights.
5.1 General.
Except
as may be otherwise provided herein or by law, the Series A Preferred Stock
shall vote together with all other classes and series of stock of the
Corporation as a single class on all actions to be taken by the stockholders
of
the Corporation. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall entitle the
holder
thereof to such number of votes per share on each such action as shall equal
the
number of shares of Common Stock (including fractions of a share) into which
each share of Series A Preferred Stock is then convertible.
5.2 Board
of Directors.
The
holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, voting as a separate series, shall
be
entitled to elect two directors of the Corporation (the “Series A Directors”). A
vacancy in any directorship elected by the holders of the Series A Preferred
Stock shall be filled only by vote or written consent of the holders of the
Series A Preferred Stock. Any Series A Director may be removed without cause
by,
and only by, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Series
A
Preferred Stock, given either at a special meeting of such stockholders duly
called for that purpose or pursuant to a written consent of stockholders.
At any
meeting held for the purpose of electing a Series A Director, the presence
in
person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares
of
Series A Preferred Stock shall constitute a quorum for the purpose of electing
such Series A Director.
4
5.3 Protective
Provisions.
So long
as at least 85% of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock first issued to
the
original holders thereof remain outstanding (as adjusted for stock splits,
distributions, combinations and similar events), except where the vote or
written consent of the holders of a greater number of shares of the Corporation
is required by law or the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation,
and
in addition to any other vote required by law or the Certificate of
Incorporation of the Corporation, without the approval of the holders of
a
majority of the then outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, given in writing
or
by vote at a meeting, the Corporation will not, either directly or by amendment,
merger, consolidation or otherwise:
(a) Alter
or
change the rights, preferences or privileges of the Series A Preferred
Stock;
(b) Create
(by reclassification or otherwise) any new class or series of shares having
rights, preferences or privileges senior to or on a parity with the Series
A
Preferred Stock with respect to redemption, voting, dividends or distribution
of
assets upon a Liquidation Event;
(c) Create
(by reclassification or otherwise) any new class or series of shares unless
such
shares are subject to purchase by Solidus Networks, Inc. and repurchase by
the
Corporation pursuant to purchase and redemption options satisfactory to the
holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred
Stock;
(d) Repurchase
or redeem any shares of Common Stock (other than the repurchase of unvested
shares at cost upon the termination of employment or the provision of services
pursuant to equity incentive agreements with employees or service providers
giving the Corporation the right to repurchase such shares);
(e) Effect,
or consent to, a merger, other corporate reorganization, sale of controlling
interest by the Corporation or any of its material subsidiaries, or any
transaction in which all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation
or any of its material subsidiaries are sold;
(f) Effect,
or consent to, a voluntary dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation
or any
of its material subsidiaries;
(g) Amend
or
waive (or adopt any provision inconsistent with) Article FIFTH of the
Corporation's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation;
(h) Amend
or
waive any provision of the Corporation's Amended and Restated Certificate
of
Incorporation or Bylaws (i) relative to the Series A Preferred Stock or (ii)
to
increase the authorized number of shares of Common Stock;
5
(i) Pay
or
declare any dividend or make any other distribution on any shares of Common
Stock or Preferred Stock; or
(j) Authorize
or issue any additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock or any equity
securities convertible, directly or indirectly, into additional shares of
Series
A Preferred Stock.
6) Conversion
Rights.
The
holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as follows
(the “Conversion Rights”):
6.1 Right
to Convert.
Each
share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of
the
holder thereof, at any time after the date of issuance at the office of the
Corporation or any transfer agent for such stock, into such number of fully
paid
and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the
Series
A Original Issue Price by the Series A Conversion Price applicable to such
share, determined as hereafter provided, in effect on the date the certificate
is surrendered for conversion. The initial conversion price per share for
shares
of Series A Preferred Stock (“Series A Conversion Price” ) shall be [$0.791];
provided, however, that the Series A Conversion Price shall be subject to
adjustment as set forth in this Section 6.
6.2 Automatic
Conversion.
Each
share of Series A Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted into shares
of Common Stock at the respective Series A Conversion Price at the time in
effect for such stock immediately upon the date specified by written consent
or
agreement of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of
the
Series A Preferred Stock, voting as a separate class.
6.3 Mechanics
of Conversion.
Before
any holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to convert the same
into shares of Common Stock, the holder shall surrender the certificate or
certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or
of any
transfer agent for such Series A Preferred Stock, and shall give written
notice
to the Corporation at its principal corporate office, of the election to
convert
the same and shall state therein the name or names in which the certificate
or
certificates for shares of Common Stock are to be issued. The Corporation
shall,
as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver at such office to such
holder of Series A Preferred Stock, or to the nominee or nominees of such
holder, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common
Stock
to which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. Such conversion shall
be
deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the
date
of such surrender of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be converted,
and
the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of issuable upon such
conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders
of
such shares of Common Stock as of such date.
6.4 Fractional
Shares.
In lieu
of any fractional shares to which the holder of Preferred Stock would otherwise
be entitled, the Corporation shall pay cash equal to such fraction multiplied
by
the Series A Conversion Price as then in effect. Whether or not fractional
shares would be issuable upon such conversion shall be determined on the
basis
of the total number of shares of all such series of Preferred Stock of each
holder at the time converting into Common Stock and the number of shares
of
Common Stock issuable upon such aggregate conversion.
6
6.5 Adjustment
of Conversion Price.
The
Series A Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time
as
follows:
(a) Special
Definitions.
For
purposes of this Section 6, the following definitions shall apply:
(i) "Options”
shall mean rights, options or warrants to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise
acquire either Common Stock or Convertible Securities.
(ii) “Original
Issue Date” shall mean the date on which the first share of Series A Preferred
Stock was first issued.
(iii) “Convertible
Securities” shall mean any evidences of indebtedness, shares or other securities
convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable, directly or indirectly,
for
Common Stock.
(iv) “Additional
Shares of Common Stock” shall mean all shares of Common Stock issued (or,
pursuant to Section 6.6, deemed to be issued) by the Corporation after the
Original Issue Date, other than shares of Common Stock issued or
issuable:
(A) upon
conversion of shares of Preferred Stock;
(B) to
officers, directors, employees and consultants of the Corporation pursuant
to
stock incentive plans, or other stock arrangements that have been approved
by
the Board of Directors of the Corporation including the Series A
Directors;
(C) pursuant
to any event for which adjustment has already been made pursuant to Section
6.7;
(D) as
a dividend or distribution on the Corporation’s Common Stock or Preferred Stock,
where an adjustment is made pursuant to Sections 6.9, 6.10 or 6.11;
(E) upon
the written consent of the holders of a majority of the Series A Preferred
Stock
that expressly states that such shares shall not constitute Additional Shares
of
Common Stock;
7
(F) upon
the exercise of Options or conversion of any Convertible Securities outstanding
as of the date hereof;
(G) pursuant
to a loan arrangement or debt financing from a bank, equipment lessor or
similar
financial institution approved by the Board of Directors, including the Series
A
Directors;
(H) in
connection with strategic transactions (but excluding any merger, consolidation,
acquisition or similar business combination) that have been approved by the
Board of Directors of the Corporation including the Series A Directors;
or
(I) pursuant
to the provisions of Section 6.12 hereof.
6.6 Deemed
Issue of Additional Shares of Common Stock.
Except
as provided in Section 6.5(a)(iv) above, in the event the Corporation at
any
time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall issue any Options
or Convertible Securities or shall fix a record date for the determination
of
holders of any class of securities entitled to receive any such Options or
Convertible Securities, then the maximum number of shares (as set forth in
the
instrument relating thereto without regard to any provisions contained therein
for a subsequent adjustment of such number) of Common Stock issuable upon
the
exercise of such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options
therefor, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall
be
deemed to be Additional Shares of Common Stock issued as of the time of such
issue or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close
of
business on such record date, provided that in any such case in which Additional
Shares of Common Stock are deemed to be issued:
(a) no
further adjustment in the Series A Conversion Price shall be made upon the
subsequent issue of Convertible Securities or shares of Common Stock upon
the
exercise of such Options or conversion or exchange of such Convertible
Securities;
(b) if
such
Options or Convertible Securities by their terms provide, with the passage
of
time or otherwise, for any increase or decrease in the consideration payable
to
the Corporation, or increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common
Stock
issuable, upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, the Series A
Conversion Price computed upon the original issue thereof (or upon the
occurrence of a record date with respect thereto), and any subsequent
adjustments based thereon, shall, upon any such increase or decrease becoming
effective, be recomputed to reflect such increase or decrease insofar as
it
affects such Options or the rights of conversion or exchange under such
Convertible Securities; and
8
(c) upon
the
expiration of any such Options or any rights of conversion or exchange under
such Convertible Securities which shall not have been exercised, the Series
A
Conversion Price computed upon the Original Issue Date, and any subsequent
adjustments based thereon, shall, upon such expiration, be recomputed as
if:
(i) in
the
case of Convertible Securities or Options for Common Stock, the only Additional
Shares of Common Stock issued were shares of Common Stock, if any, actually
issued upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange of
such
Convertible Securities, and the consideration received therefor was the
consideration actually received by the Corporation for the issue of all such
Options, whether or not exercised, plus the consideration actually received
by
the Corporation upon such exercise, or for the issue of all such Convertible
Securities which were actually converted or exchanged; and
(ii) in
the
case of Options for Convertible Securities, only the Convertible Securities,
if
any, actually issued upon the exercise thereof were issued at the time of
issue
of such Options and the consideration received by the Corporation for the
Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been then issued was the
consideration actually received by the Corporation for the issue of all such
Options, whether or not exercised, plus the consideration deemed to have
been
received by the Corporation upon the issue of the Convertible Securities
with
respect to which such Options were actually exercised.
6.7 Adjustment
of Conversion Price Upon Issuance of Additional Shares of Common
Stock.
In the
event this Corporation shall issue Additional Shares of Common Stock (including
Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to Section
6.6)
without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Series
A
Conversion Price applicable on and immediately prior to such issue, then
and in
such event, the Series A Conversion Price shall be reduced, concurrently
with
such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest cent) determined by
multiplying the Series A Conversion Price in effect on the date of and
immediately prior to such issue by a fraction, the numerator of which shall
be
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such
issue, including any Common Stock issuable pursuant to any then outstanding
options, rights or warrants for Common Stock or any class or series of stock
convertible into Common Stock (including but not limited to Preferred Stock),
plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration
received by the Corporation for the total number of Additional Shares of
Common
Stock so issued would purchase at the Series A Conversion Price in effect
on the
date of and immediately prior to such issue; and the denominator of which
shall
be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to
such
issue, including any Common Stock issuable pursuant to any then outstanding
options, rights or warrants for Common Stock or any class or series of stock
convertible into Common Stock (including but not limited to Preferred Stock)
outstanding immediately prior to such issue, plus the number of such Additional
Shares of Common Stock so issued.
9
6.8 Determination
of Consideration.
For
purposes of this Section 6, the consideration received by the Corporation
for
the issue of any Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be computed as
follows:
(a) Cash
and
Property. Such consideration shall:
(i) insofar
as it consists of cash, be computed at the aggregate amount of cash received
by
the Corporation excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued interest or
accrued dividends;
(ii) insofar
as it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the fair value
thereof at the time of such issue, as determined in good faith by the Board
of
Directors; and
(iii) in
the
event Additional Shares of Common Stock are issued together with other shares
or
securities or other assets of the Corporation for consideration which covers
both, be the proportion of such consideration so received, computed as provided
in clauses (i) and (ii) above, as determined in good faith by the Board of
Directors.
(b) Options
and Convertible Securities.
The
consideration per share received by the Corporation for Additional Shares
of
Common Stock deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 6.6, relating
to
Options and Convertible Securities, shall be determined by dividing
(i) the
total
amount, if any, received or receivable by the Corporation as consideration
for
the issue of such Options or Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate
amount of additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating
thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent
adjustment of such consideration) payable to the Corporation upon the exercise
of such Options or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities,
or
in the case of Options for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such options
for Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such Convertible
Securities by
(ii) the
maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments
relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein for a
subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such
Options
or the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
6.9 Adjustments
for Stock Dividends, Subdivisions, or Split-ups of Common Stock.
If the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time after the filing
of
this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation is increased by a
stock
dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or by a subdivision or split-up
of
shares of Common Stock without a corresponding increase in the number of
shares
of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding, then, effective at the close of
business upon the record date fixed for the determination of holders of Common
Stock entitled to receive such stock dividend, subdivision or split-up, the
Series A Conversion Price shall be appropriately decreased so that the number
of
shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of Series A
Preferred Stock shall be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding
shares of Common Stock.
10
6.10 Adjustments
for Combinations of Common Stock.
If the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time after the filing
of
this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation is decreased by a
combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock without a corresponding
decrease in the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding,
then,
effective at the close of business upon the record date of such combination,
the
Series A Conversion Price shall be appropriately increased so that the number
of
shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of Series A
Preferred Stock shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding
shares of Common Stock.
6.11 Adjustments
for Reorganizations, Reclassifications, etc.
If the
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock shall
be
changed into the same or a different number of shares of any other class
or
classes of stock or other securities or property, whether by reclassification,
a
merger or consolidation of this Corporation with or into any other corporation
or corporations, or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of this
Corporation (but only if such change is not in connection with an event that
is
deemed to be a Liquidation Event), or otherwise (other than a subdivision
or
combination of shares provided for in Section 6.9 or 6.10 above), the Series
A
Conversion Price then in effect shall, concurrently with the effectiveness
of
such reorganization or reclassification, be proportionately adjusted such
that
the Series A Preferred Stock shall be convertible into, in lieu of the number
of
shares of Common Stock which the holders would otherwise have been entitled
to
receive, a number of shares of such other class or classes of stock or
securities or other property equivalent to the number of shares of Common
Stock
that would have been subject to receipt by the holders upon conversion of
the
Series A Preferred Stock immediately before such event; and, in any such
case,
appropriate adjustment (as determined by the Board of Directors) shall be
made
in the application of the provisions herein set forth with respect to the
rights
and interests thereafter of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock,
to the
end that the provisions set forth herein (including provisions with respect
to
changes in and other adjustments of the Series A Conversion Price) shall
thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be reasonable, in relation to
any
shares of stock or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion
of
the Series A Preferred Stock.
6.12 Special
Adjustment for Issuance of Excluded Warrant Shares.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.5(a)(iv)(F) hereof, if the
Corporation issues shares of its Common Stock (“Excluded Warrant Shares”) upon
the exercise of Excluded Warrants (as defined below), then for each Excluded
Warrant Share issued, the Corporation shall issue to the holder of a share
of
Series A Preferred Stock upon conversion of such share, in addition to any
other
shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder as a result of such conversion,
a
number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number obtained by application
of
the following formula: (M x WS)/ OP, where,
M
= the
multiple, which is 66%,
WS
= the
total number of Excluded Warrant Shares issued, and
OP
= the
total number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding.
11
For
purposes of this Section 6.12, “Excluded
Warrants”
means
(i) those warrants outstanding as of the filing date to purchase an aggregate
of 7,091,181 shares of
Common
Stock (as equitably adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations, splits,
recapitalizations or similar events with respect to such shares), each of
which
has an exercise price of at least $0.25 per share (as equitably adjusted
for any
stock dividends, combinations, splits, recapitalizations or similar events
with
respect to such shares) and (ii) that certain warrant issued by the Corporation
pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of February
25,
2005, by and between the Corporation and the Xxx Xxxxxxx Private Opportunities
Fund L.P., as it may be amended from time to time.
6.13 Minimal
Adjustments.
No
adjustment in the Series A Conversion Price need be made if such adjustment
would result in a change in the Series A Conversion Price of less than $0.01.
Any adjustment of less than $0.01 which is not made shall be carried forward
and
shall be made at the time of and together with any subsequent adjustment
which,
on a cumulative basis, amounts to an adjustment of $0.01 or more in the Series
A
Conversion Price, or upon conversion, whichever first occurs.
6.14 No
Impairment.
The
Corporation will not through any reorganization, recapitalization, transfer
of
assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or
any
other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance
of
any of the terms to be observed or performed by the Corporation pursuant
to this
Section 6, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out
of all
the provisions of this Section 6 and in the taking of all such action as
may be
necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the
holders of Preferred Stock against impairment. This provision shall not restrict
the Corporation’s right to amend this Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation with the requisite stockholder consent or approval.
6.15 Notices
of Record Date.
In the
event that the Corporation shall propose at any time:
(a) to
declare any dividend or distribution upon its Common Stock, whether in cash,
property, stock or other securities, whether or not a regular cash dividend
and
whether or not out of earnings or earned surplus;
(b) to
offer
for subscription pro rata to the holders of any class or series of its stock
any
additional shares of stock of any class or series or other rights;
(c) to
effect
any reclassification or recapitalization of its Common Stock outstanding
involving a change in the Common Stock; or
(d) to
merge
or consolidate with or into any other corporation, or sell all or substantially
all its property or business, or to liquidate, dissolve or wind up;
12
then,
in
connection with each such event, the Corporation shall send to the holders
of
the Preferred Stock:
(i) at
least
20 days’ prior written notice of the date on which a record shall be taken for
such dividend, distribution or subscription rights (and specifying the date

all
authorized shares of Preferred Stock, whether or not such shares are then
outstanding; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares
of

FIFTH: Purchase Option; Redemption.
A. Definitions. For
purposes of this Article FIFTH, the following terms shall have the following
definitions:
1. “PBT”
means
Solidus Networks, Inc.
2. “Per
Share Exercise Price”
means
the quotient obtained by dividing the Exercise Price by the number of Subject
Securities, on an as-converted to Common Stock basis.
3. “Exercise
Date”
means
the date upon which PBT notifies the Corporation in writing of the exercise
of
the PBT Purchase Option as provided in Section (B) of this Article FIFTH,
or
upon which the Requisite Series A Holders notify the Corporation in writing
of
the exercise of the Company Redemption Option as provided in Section (B)
of this
Article FIFTH, as applicable.
4. “Exercise
Price”
means
the fair market value of the Subject Securities, determined as of the Exercise
Date in accordance with the following mechanism. A representative designated
by
PBT and a representative of the Corporation shall attempt to negotiate a
mutually agreeable fair market value within thirty (30) days following the
Exercise Date. If the representatives are unable to reach an agreement within
such time period, each of the Requisite Series A Holders and the Corporation
will at its own cost appoint a nationally recognized investment banking firm
as
an appraiser of the fair market value of Subject Securities. Each of the
investment banking firms shall separately determine, within forty-five (45)
days
of the end of such thirty (30) day period, the fair market value of the Subject
Securities taking into account the fact that the exercise of the PBT Purchase
Option or the Company Redemption Option, as applicable, may involve the
acquisition of a controlling interest in the Corporation, and further taking
into account the presence or absence of non-competition and non-solicitation
obligations from the executives of the Corporation and its subsidiaries and
from
the Corporation’s principal stockholders and the impact of such exercise on any
of the material agreements of the Corporation or its subsidiaries. Each of
the
investment banking firms shall express its valuation as a single number in
US
dollars. The mid-point of the valuations (the “Mid-Point”)
will
then be calculated by dividing the sum of the separate valuations by two
(2). To
the extent that each valuation is within the range that is 10% above or 10%
below the Mid-Point (the “Range”),
the
Mid-Point shall be used. If either or both of the valuations falls outside
of
the Range, then the parties shall jointly choose (or if the parties are unable
to so jointly choose within three (3) business days, the two appraisers shall
choose) a disinterested nationally recognized investment banking firm as
a third
appraiser, at a cost to be shared on an equal basis between the parties,
to
complete an appraisal within an additional forty-five (45) days, which appraisal
shall be equal to or somewhere between the two prior appraisals and such
third
appraisal shall be the final and binding determination of the Exercise Price.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate Exercise Price shall not be
less
than $20,000,000.
14
5. “Option
Expiration Time”
means
the earliest of (a) 11:59 p.m. San Francisco time on April 14, 2009, (b)
the
closing of the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of PBT, and
(c)
the closing of a merger, consolidation or similar transaction in which the
stockholders of PBT as of immediately prior to the transaction do not own
a
majority of the voting power of the surviving company as of immediately
following such transaction.
6. “Requisite
Series A Holders”

Stock.

Redemption Option.
At the
written election of the Requisite Series A Holders, the Corporation shall,
subject to applicable restrictions in the DGCL, redeem on the Closing Date
all
Subject Securities (other than any such Subject Securities purchased by PBT
pursuant to the PBT Purchase Option) at a redemption price per share equal
to
the Per Share Exercise Price (the “Company
Redemption Option”).
Such
redemption shall be in lieu of PBT exercising the PBT Purchase Option in
respect
of such Subject Securities, and shall be subject to PBT providing the Exercise
Price in respect of such Subject Securities to the Corporation in the manner
specified herein to allow the Corporation to redeem such Subject Securities.
Such funds provided by PBT pursuant to the preceding sentence may only be
used
to redeem such Subject Securities. Upon the request of PBT at any time prior
to
the Closing Date, the Corporation will return such funds to PBT. The Company
Redemption Option may be exercised at any time at or prior to the Option
Expiration Time.
15
C. Manner
of Exercise.
The PBT
Purchase Option may be exercised, if at all, at or before the Option Expiration
Time by written notice (the “PBT

PBT to the Corporation stating that the PBT Purchase Option is being exercised.
The PBT Purchase Option shall be deemed to be exercised as of the date of

the
Closing Date of any statutory or regulatory waiting period. PBT or the Requisite
Series A Holders, as applicable, may extend the Closing Date for the reasons

Exercise Price for each Subject Security to the holders of record thereof
determined as of the Closing Date. Payment for Subject Securities shall be
mailed to each holder at the address set forth in the Corporation’s records or

Corporation’s records for a holder or provided by such holder, to such holder at
the address of the Corporation. As soon as practicable upon PBT’s request, the
Corporation shall provide, or shall cause its transfer agent to provide,
to PBT
or to the Payment Agent, free of charge, a complete list of the record holders
of Subject Securities, as of a specified date, including the number of Subject

or other convertible securities that remain outstanding after the Closing
Date
shall, immediately upon issuance, be purchased by PBT, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, or if not so permitted, then redeemed by the Corporation

law, in each case for the Per Share Exercise Price, without interest. Payment
for such shares of Common Stock shall be mailed to each holder at the address
set forth in the Corporation’s records or at the address provided by each holder
or, if no address is set forth in the Corporation’s records for a holder or

of Common Stock shall be deemed to occur automatically upon the issuance
of such
share.
E. Transfer
of Title.
Transfer of title to all of the Subject Securities and other shares purchased
or
redeemed pursuant to this Article FIFTH shall be deemed to occur automatically
on the Closing Date and thereafter the Corporation shall be entitled to treat
PBT or itself, as applicable, as the sole holder of all such Subject Securities
and other shares, notwithstanding the failure of any holder thereof to tender
the certificates representing such shares to the Payment Agent, whether or
not
such tender is required or requested by the Payment Agent. The Corporation
shall
instruct its transfer agent not to accept any such Subject Securities and
other
shares for transfer on and after the Closing Date. The Corporation shall
take
all actions reasonably requested by PBT or the Requisite Series A Holders,
as
applicable, to assist in effectuating the transfer of such Subject Securities
and other shares in accordance with this Article FIFTH.

its
control to take, any action inconsistent with the rights of PBT or the holders
of Series A Preferred Stock under this Article FIFTH. The Corporation shall

enter into any arrangement, agreement or understanding, whether oral or in
writing, that is inconsistent with or limits or impairs the rights of PBT
or the
holders of Series A Preferred Stock and the obligations of the Corporation
hereunder, including without limitation any arrangement, agreement or
understanding that imposes any obligation upon the Corporation, or deprives

Corporation in connection with any such meeting not later than the time such
