2. REGISTRATION RIGHTS.
2.1 "PIGGY BACK" REGISTRATION. If at any time the Company shall
determine to register under the Securities Act (including pursuant to a demand
of any stockholder of the Company exercising registration rights other than
pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof) any of its common stock (other than a
registration relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a
Company employee benefits plan, a registration on any form which does not
include substantially the same information as would be required to be included
in a registration statement covering the sale of Piggyback Registrable Shares or
a registration in which the only common stock being registered is common stock
issuable upon conversion of debt securities which are also being registered), it
shall send to each Holder and to each Founder written notice of such
determination and, if within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice,
such Holder or such Founder shall so request in writing, the Company shall use
its commercially reasonable best efforts to include in such registration
statement all or any part of the Piggyback Registrable Shares that such Holder
or such Founder requests to be registered. If such registration involves an
underwritten public offering and the total amount of securities, including
Piggyback Registrable Shares, requested by stockholders to be included in such
offering exceeds the amount of securities that the managing underwriter
determines in its sole discretion is compatible with the success of the
offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only
that number of such securities, including Piggyback Registrable Shares, which
the managing underwriter determines in its sole discretion will not jeopardize
the success of the offering (the securities so included to be apportioned in the
following order of priority (A) first, to the Company, (B) second, among the
Holders requesting to sell common stock issuable upon conversion of Series A
Shares and Series B Shares according to each such Holder's Ownership Percentage,
(C) third, to the Founders requesting to sell Piggyback Registrable Shares
according to the total amount of securities held by each such Founder, and (D)
fourth, to the extent additional securities may be included therein, pro rata
among the other selling stockholders according to the total amount of securities
owned by each such stockholder); provided, however, that in any registration
other than the initial Public Offering of the Company's common stock, the number
of shares requested to be included by the Holders shall not be reduced below 25%
of the total number of securities to be provided in the registration. For
purposes of the preceding parenthetical concerning apportionment, for any
selling stockholder which is a holder of Piggyback Registrable
2
3
Shares and which is a partnership or corporation, the partners, retired partners
and stockholders of such holder, or the estates and family members of any such
partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the
foregoing persons shall be deemed to be a single "selling stockholder," and any
pro-rata reduction with respect to such "selling stockholder" shall be based
upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all
entities and individuals included in such "selling stockholder" as defined in
this sentence. If any Holder or Founder disapproves of the terms of such
underwriting, he may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the
Company and the underwriter. No incidental right under this Section 2.1 shall be
construed to limit any registration required under Section 2.2.
2.2 REQUIRED REGISTRATION.
(a) At any time or times not earlier than the earlier of
either (i) 180 days after the completion by the Company of its initial Public
Offering or (ii) March 31, 2001, one or more Holders of at least 30% of the
shares of common stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Series A Shares
and the Series B Shares may require the Company to register some or all of such
Holders' Registrable Shares, provided that each such registration covers an
offering with an aggregate offering price of at least $5,000,000. Such Holder(s)
shall notify the Company in writing that it or they intend to offer or cause to
be offered for public sale of all or any portion of the Registrable Shares, and
within ten (10) days of the receipt after such notice, the Company will so
notify all holders of Registrable Shares.
(b) Upon written request of any Holder given within thirty
(30) days after the receipt by such Holder from the Company of such
notification, the Company will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to
cause all or any part of the Registrable Shares that may be requested by any
Holder thereof (including the Holder or Holders giving the initial notice of
intent to offer (each an "Initiating Holder" and collectively the "Initiating
Holders")) to be registered under the Securities Act as expeditiously as
possible. The Company shall file a registration statement covering the
Registrable Shares so requested to be registered as soon as practical, but in
any event within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Company of the request of
the Initiating Holder.
(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 2.2
or Section 2.3 to the contrary, if the Company furnishes to the Holders
requesting any registration pursuant to such sections a certificate signed by
the President of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the
Board of Directors of the Company, such registration would be detrimental to the
Company and that it is in the best interests of the Company to defer the filing
of a registration statement, then the Company shall have the right to defer the
filing of a registration statement with respect to such offering for a period of
not more than ninety (90) days from receipt by the Company of the request by the
Initiating Holder; provided, however, that the Company may not exercise such
right more than once in any twelve-month period.
(d) If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the
Registrable Shares covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they
shall so advise the Company as part of their request and the Company shall
include such information in the written notice referred to above.
(e) If the registration to be effected pursuant to this
Section 2.2 is a registration in connection with the Company's initial Public
Offering, the underwriter shall be selected by the Company and shall be
reasonably acceptable to a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders. In
all subsequent registrations effected pursuant to this Section 2.2, the
underwriter shall be
3
4
selected by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders and shall be
reasonably acceptable to the Company. In any event, the right of any Holder to
include his, her or its Registrable Shares in such registration shall be
conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such underwriting and the
inclusion of such Holder's Registrable Shares in the underwriting to the extent
provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through
such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form
with the underwriters selected for such underwriting.
(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the underwriter
advises the Initiating Holders in writing that marketing factors require a
limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Initiating
Holders shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Shares which would otherwise
be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares of Registrable Shares
that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated among the Holders
requesting inclusion in such underwriting pursuant to Section 2.2(b) above
according to each such Holder's Ownership Percentage. No shares proposed to be
registered by the Company or by any party other than the Holders requesting
inclusion in such registration pursuant to Section 2.2(b) above shall be
included in the underwriting unless all shares requested to be included in such
underwriting pursuant to Section 2.2(b) are included therein.
(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not
be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any registration
pursuant to this Section 2.2: (i) after the Company has effected three (3)
registrations pursuant to this Section 2.2 and such registrations have been
declared or ordered effective, (ii) during the period starting with the date
sixty (60) days prior to the Company's good faith estimate of filing of, and
ending on a date one hundred eighty (180) days after the effective date of, a
registration statement filed under the Securities Act (other than a registration
relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a Company stock
plan), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith its
commercially reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to
become effective, or (iii) if the Initiating Holders propose to dispose of
shares of Registrable Shares that may be immediately registered on Form S-3
pursuant to a request made pursuant to Section 2.3 below.
2.3 REGISTRATION ON FORM S-3. In case the Company shall receive
from a Holder or Holders of (x) at least twenty percent (20%) of the shares of
common stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Series A Shares or (y) at
least twenty percent (20%) of the Shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon
conversion of the Series B Shares, a written request or requests that the
Company effect a registration on Form S-3 (or any similar form promulgated by
the Securities and Exchange Commission) and any related qualification or
compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned by
such Holder or Holders, the Company will:
(a) promptly give written notice of the proposed
registration, and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders;
and
(b) as soon as practicable, use its commercially
reasonable best efforts to effect such registration and all such qualifications
and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the
sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holder's or Holders'
Registrable Shares as are specified in such request, together with all or such
portion of the Registrable Shares of any other Holder or Holders joining in such
request as are specified in a written request given within twenty (20) days
after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however, that
the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration,
qualification or compliance, pursuant to this Section 2.3: (1) if Form S-3 is
not available for such
4
5
offering by the Holders; (2) if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a
certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good
faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously
detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such Form S-3 registration
to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to
defer the filing of the Form S-3 registration statement for a period of not more
than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request of the Holder or Holders
under this Section 2.3; provided, however, that the Company shall not utilize
this right more than once in any twelve month period; (3) if such Form S-3
registration covers an offering with reasonably anticipated aggregate proceeds
of less than $2,500,000; or (4) if the Company has effected two (2)
registrations pursuant to this Section 2.3 within the past twelve (12) months
and such registrations have been declared or ordered effective.
(c) Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall use its
commercially reasonable best efforts to file a registration statement covering
the Registrable Shares and other securities so requested to be registered as
soon as practicable after receipt of the request or requests of the Holders.
Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall not be counted as a
demand for registration effected pursuant to Section 2.2. If the Holders giving
the initial notice propose to offer the Registrable Shares by means of an
underwriting, the terms of Sections 2.2(d) and (e) shall apply.
2.4 EFFECTIVENESS.
(a) The Company will use its commercially reasonable best
efforts to maintain the effectiveness for up to nine (9) months of any
registration statement pursuant to which any of the Registrable Shares are being
offered; provided, however, that: (i) such nine-month 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 Shares on Form S-3 which are intended to be offered
on a continuous or delayed basis, such nine-month period shall be extended, if
necessary, to keep the registration statement effective until the earlier to
occur of (A) eighteen (18) months following the effectiveness of the
registration statement, or (B) the date that all such Registrable Shares are
sold, provided that Rule 415, or any successor rule under Securities Act,
permits an offering on a continuous or delayed basis, and provided further that
applicable rules under Securities Act governing the obligation to file a
post-effective amendment permit, in lieu of filing a post-effective amendment
which (I) includes any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of Securities Act
or (II) reflects facts or events representing a material or fundamental change
in the information set forth in the registration statement, the incorporation by
reference of information required to be included in (I) and (II) above to be
contained in periodic reports filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), in the
registration statement.
(b) The Company will from time to time amend or supplement
such registration statement and the prospectus contained therein as and to the
extent necessary to comply with the Securities Act and any applicable state
securities statute or regulation.
2.5 INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) Indemnification of Holders. In the event that the
Company registers any of the Registrable Shares under the Securities Act, the
Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder and each underwriter of the
Registrable Shares so registered (including any
5
6
broker or dealer through whom such shares may be sold) and each person, if any,
who controls such Holder or any such underwriter within the meaning of Section
15 of the Securities Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages,
expenses or liabilities (or any action in respect thereof), joint or several, to
which they or any of them become subject under the Securities Act, Exchange Act
or other federal or state law or under any other statute or at common law or
otherwise, and, except as hereinafter provided, will reimburse each such Holder,
each such underwriter and each such controlling person, if any, for any legal or
other expenses reasonably incurred by them or any of them, as such expenses are
incurred, in connection with investigating or defending any actions whether or
not resulting in any liability, insofar as such losses, claims, damages,
expenses, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the
registration statement, in any preliminary or amended preliminary prospectus or
in the prospectus (or the registration statement or prospectus as from time to
time amended or supplemented by the Company); (ii) arise out of or are based
upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not
misleading; or (iii) any violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law; provided, however,
that the indemnity contained in this Section 2.5(a) will not apply where such
untrue statement or omission was made in such registration statement,
preliminary prospectus or prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with
information furnished in writing to the Company in connection therewith by such
Holder of Registrable Shares, any such underwriter or any such controlling
person expressly for use therein. Promptly after receipt by any Holder of
Registrable Shares, any underwriter or any controlling person of notice of the
commencement of any action in respect of which indemnity may be sought against
the Company, such Holder of Registrable Shares, or such underwriter or such
controlling person, as the case may be, will notify the Company in writing of
the commencement thereof, and, subject to the provisions hereinafter stated, the
Company shall assume the defense of such action (including the employment of
counsel, who shall be counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Holder of
Registrable Shares, such underwriter or such controlling person, as the case may
be), and the payment of expenses insofar as such action shall relate to any
alleged liability in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the
Company. Such Holder of Registrable Shares, any such underwriter or any such
controlling person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such
action and to participate in the defense thereof in the event the representation
of such Holder, underwriter or controlling person by counsel retained by or on
the behalf of the Company would be inappropriate due to conflicts of interest
between any such person and any other party represented by such counsel in such
proceeding or action, in which case the Company shall pay, as incurred, the fees
and expenses of not more than one such separate counsel. The Company shall not
be liable to indemnify any person under this Section 2.5(a) for any settlement
of any such action effected without the Company's consent (which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld). The Company shall not, except with the approval
of each party being indemnified under this Section 2.5(a) (which approval will
not be unreasonably withheld), consent to entry of any judgment or enter into
any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving
by the claimant or plaintiff to the parties being so indemnified of a release
from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
(b) Indemnification of Company. In the event that the
Company registers any of the Registrable Shares under the Securities Act, each
Holder of the Registrable Shares so registered will indemnify and hold harmless
the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who have signed the
registration statement, each underwriter of the Registrable Shares so registered
(including any broker or dealer through whom any of such shares may be sold) and
each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15
of the Securities Act from and
6
7
against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities (or any
action in respect thereof), several but not joint, to which they or any of them
may become subject under the Securities Act or under any other statute or at
common law or otherwise, and, except as hereinafter provided, will reimburse the
Company and each such director, officer, underwriter or controlling person for
any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them or any of them, as such
expenses are incurred, in connection with investigating or defending any actions
whether or not resulting in any liability, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages, expenses, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the
registration statement, in any preliminary or amended preliminary prospectus or
in the prospectus (or the registration statement or prospectus as from time to
time amended or supplemented) or arise out of or are based upon the omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to
the extent that any such statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in
conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company in connection
therewith by such Holder, expressly for use therein; provided that in no event
shall the total amount for which any Holder shall be liable hereunder exceed the
net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder. Promptly after receipt
of notice of the commencement of any action in respect of which indemnity may be
sought against such Holder of Registrable Shares, the Company will notify such
Holder of Registrable Shares in writing of the commencement thereof, and such
Holder of Registrable Shares shall, subject to the provisions hereinafter
stated, assume the defense of such action (including the employment of counsel,
who shall be counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company) and the payment of
expenses insofar as such action shall relate to the alleged liability in respect
of which indemnity may be sought against such Holder of Registrable Shares. The
Company and each such director, officer, underwriter or controlling person shall
have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and to participate
in the defense thereof in the event the representation of the Company, any of
its officers or directors or any underwriter or controlling person by counsel
retained by or on the behalf of such Holder would be inappropriate due to
conflicts of interest between any such person and any other party represented by
such counsel in such proceeding or action, in which case such Holder shall pay,
as incurred, the fees and expenses of not more than one such separate counsel.
Notwithstanding the two preceding sentences, if the action is one in which the
Company may be obligated to indemnify any Holder of Registrable Shares pursuant
to Section 2.5, the Company shall have the right to assume the defense of such
action, subject to the right of such holders to participate therein as permitted
by Section 2.5. Such Holder shall not be liable to indemnify any person for any
settlement of any such action effected without such Holder's consent (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). Such Holder shall not, except with
the approval of the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld),
consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not
include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff
to the party being so indemnified of a release from all liability in respect to
such claim or litigation.
2.6 CONTRIBUTION. If the indemnification provided for in Section
2.5 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an
indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense
referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such
indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by
such indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or
expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of
the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other
in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss,
liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the
indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or
7
8
the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission; provided that in no event shall contributions by a Holder
hereunder exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder. No
person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (with the meaning of Section 11(f)
of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contributions from any person who is
not guilty of such fraudulent representation.
2.7 EXCHANGE ACT REGISTRATION. With a view to making available to
the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under Securities Act and any
other rule or regulation of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC")
that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the
public without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the
Company agrees to:
(a) use its commercially reasonable best efforts to make
and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined
in SEC Rule 144, at all times after ninety (90) days after the effective date of
the first registration statement filed by the Company for the offering of its
securities to the general public;
(b) take such reasonable action, including the voluntary
registration of its common stock under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, as is
necessary to enable the Holders to utilize Form S-3 for the sale of their
Registrable Shares, such action to be taken as soon as practicable after the end
of the fiscal year in which the first registration statement filed by the
Company for the offering of its securities to the general public is declared
effective;
(c) file on a timely basis with the SEC all information
that the SEC may require under either of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act and, so long as it is required to file such information, take all
action that may be required as a condition to the availability of Rule 144 under
the Securities Act (or any successor exemptive rule hereinafter in effect) with
respect to the Company's common stock;
(d) furnish to any Holder forthwith upon request (i) a
written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting
requirements of Rule 144, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly
report of the Company as filed with the SEC, and (iii) any other reports and
documents that a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or
regulation of the SEC allowing a Holder to sell any such Registrable Shares
without registration.
2.8 FURTHER OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. Whenever the Company is
required hereunder to register Registrable Shares, it agrees that it shall also
do the following:
(a) Furnish to each selling Holder such copies of the
registration statement (including any amendments thereto) and each preliminary
and final prospectus and any other documents that such Holder may reasonably
request to facilitate the public offering of its Registrable Shares;
(b) Use its commercially reasonable best efforts to
register or qualify the Registrable Shares to be registered pursuant to this
Agreement under the applicable securities or "blue sky" laws of such
jurisdictions as any selling Holder may reasonably request; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be obligated to qualify to do business in any
jurisdiction where
8
9
it is not then so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to the
service of process in suits other than those arising out of the offer or sale of
the securities covered by the registration statement in any jurisdiction where
it is not then so subject;
(c) Notify each Holder of Registrable Shares covered by
such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under Securities Act of the happening of any event as a
result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then
in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing;
(d) Cause all such Registrable Shares registered pursuant
hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities
issued by the Company are then listed;
(e) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all
Registrable Shares registered pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such
Registrable Shares, in each case not later than the effective date of such
registration;
(f) In the event of any underwritten public offering,
enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual
and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder
participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its
obligations under such an agreement;
(g) Furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting
registration of Registrable Shares pursuant to this Section 2, on the date that
such Registrable Shares are delivered to the underwriters for sale in connection
with a registration pursuant to this Section 2, if such securities are being
sold through underwriters, or, if such securities are not being sold through
underwriters, on the date that the registration statement with respect to such
securities becomes effective:
(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 to the Holders requesting
registration of Registrable Shares; and
(ii) "comfort" letters signed by the Company's
independent public accountants who have examined and reported on the Company's
financial statements included in the registration statement, to the extent
permitted by the standards of the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants, covering substantially the same matters with respect to the
registration statement (and the prospectus included therein) and (in the case of
the accountants "comfort" letters) with respect to events subsequent to the date
of the financial statements, as are customarily covered in opinions of issuer's
counsel and in accountants' "comfort" letters delivered to the underwriters in
underwritten public offerings of securities, but only if and to the extent that
the Company is required to deliver or cause the delivery of such opinion or
"comfort" letters to the underwriters in an underwritten public offering of
securities;
(h) Permit each selling Holder or his counsel or other
representatives to inspect and copy such corporate documents and records as may
reasonably be requested by them; and
9
10
(i) Furnish to each selling Holder, upon request, a copy
of all documents filed and all correspondence from or to the SEC in connection
with any such offering unless confidential treatment of such information has
been requested of the SEC.
2.9 EXPENSES. In the case of a registration under Sections 2.1,
2.2 or 2.3 the Company shall bear all costs and expenses of each such
registration, including, but not limited to, printing, legal and accounting
expenses, SEC filing fees, "blue sky" fees and expenses, and all NASD, stock
exchange listing and qualification fees (including (i) in connection with the
Company's initial Public Offering, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel
for the Company in its capacity as counsel to the selling Holders hereunder;
provided, however, if Company counsel does not make itself available for this
purpose, the Company will pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of one
counsel for the selling Holders selected by them, and (ii) in connection with
any subsequent registrations pursuant to Section 2.2, reasonable fees and
disbursements of one counsel for the selling Holders selected by them not to
exceed $35,000); provided, however, that the Company shall have no obligation to
pay or otherwise bear (i) any portion of the underwriter's commissions or
discounts attributable to the Registrable Shares being offered and sold by the
Holders of Registrable Shares, or (ii) any of such expenses if the payment of
such expenses by the Company is prohibited by the laws of a state in which such
offering is qualified and only to the extent so prohibited; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any
registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2.3 if the registration
request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders initiating such
registration (in which case, subject to the last provision of this Section 2.9
all Holders initiating such registration shall bear such expenses pro rata based
upon the total number of Registrable Shares requested to be included therein by
each such Holder); provided, further, that the Company shall not be required to
pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section
2.2 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the
Initiating Holders (in which case, subject to the last provision of this Section
2.9 all Initiating Holders shall bear such expenses pro rata based upon the
total number of Registrable Shares requested to be included therein by each such
Holder), unless such Initiating Holders agree to forfeit their right to one
demand registration pursuant to Section 2.2; provided further, however, that if
at the time of such withdrawal of registration request under Section 2.2 or 2.3,
(a) the Initiating Holders have learned of a material adverse change in the
condition, business, or prospects of the Company not known to such Holders at
the time of their request, and (b) such Initiating Holders have withdrawn the
request with reasonable promptness following discovery of such material adverse
change, then such Initiating Holders shall not be required to pay any of such
expenses with respect to any registration under either Section 2.2 or 2.3, and
shall retain their rights pursuant to Section 2.2.
2.10 TRANSFER OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The registration rights of
a Holder of Registrable Shares or of a Founder of Piggyback Registrable Shares,
under this Agreement may be transferred (i) in the case of an individual, to any
member of the immediate family of such individual or to any trust for the
benefit of the individual or any such family member or members, (ii) to any
partner or affiliate of a Holder, and (iii) to any transferee provided that the
transferee receives at least 100,000 Registrable Shares and/or Piggyback
Registrable Shares (as adjusted for stock splits, combinations and the like). In
the event of a transfer of registration rights as provided in (i), (ii) or (iii)
above, the transferee shall execute a counterpart to this Agreement and agree to
be bound by the terms of this Agreement. The transferor shall provide the
Company with written notice of such transfer within a reasonable time.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the registration rights of a Holder or a Founder
under this Agreement may not be transferred to an entity, or a person controlled
by, under common control with or controlling such entity, which is a direct
competitor of the Company.
10
11
2.11 NO SUPERIOR RIGHTS. The Company will not grant registration
rights to any person or entity without first obtaining the prior written consent
of the Holders of a majority of the Series A Shares and the Series B Shares,
voting together on an "as converted" basis as a single class.
2.12 MARKET STAND-OFF AGREEMENT. Provided that all officers and
directors are also so bound, no Holder or Founder shall, to the extent requested
by the Company or any managing underwriter of the Company, sell or otherwise
transfer or dispose of (other than to donees who agree to be similarly bound)
any Registrable Shares during a period (the "Stand-Off Period") up to 180 days
following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed
under the Securities Act for the initial Public Offering (or such shorter period
as the Company or managing underwriter may authorize) except for securities sold
as part of the offering covered by such registration statement in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement. In order to enforce the foregoing
covenant, the Company may impose stock transfer restrictions with respect to the
Registrable Shares of each Holder or Piggyback Registrable Shares held by each
Founder until the end of the Stand-Off Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the obligations described in this Section 2.12 shall not apply to a registration
relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-8 or similar forms which may
be promulgated in the future, or a registration relating solely to an SEC Rule
145 transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms which may be promulgated in the
future.
2.13 TERMINATION OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The obligations of the
Company to register any Holder's Registrable Shares pursuant to this Section 2
shall terminate five (5) years after the Company's initial Public Offering
("Initial Offering"). In addition, a Holder's registration rights shall expire
if (a) the Company has completed its Initial Offering and is subject to
provisions of the Exchange Act, (b) all Registrable Securities held by and
issuable to such Holder (and its affiliates, partners, former partners, members
and former members) may be sold under Rule 144(k), and (c) Registrable
Securities held by such Holder equal less than one percent (1%) of the
outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (on an as converted basis).
3. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL ON COMPANY ISSUANCES.
3.1 PRO RATA RIGHT. The Company hereby grants to each Holder who
holds at least 200,000 Series A Shares, Series B Shares, or common stock issued
upon conversion thereof (as adjusted for any combinations, consolidations, stock
distributions or stock dividends with respect to such shares), the right of
first refusal to purchase a pro rata share of all New Securities (as defined in
paragraph 3.2 below) which the Company may, from time to time, propose to sell
and issue. A Holder's pro rata share, for purposes of this right of first
refusal, is a ratio, (A) the numerator of which is the number of shares of
common stock held by such Holder or issuable upon conversion of the Series A
Shares or Series B Shares, as the case may be, then held by such Holder on the
date of the Company's written notice pursuant to paragraph 3.3 below; and (B)
the denominator of which is the total number of shares of common stock then
outstanding (assuming full conversion and exercise of all securities convertible
or exercisable into shares of common stock). The Holder shall also be entitled
to a right of first refusal to purchase on a pro rata basis, any shares not
elected to be purchased by the other Holders pursuant to this Section 3.1 in
accordance with the terms set forth in Section 3.3 below. This right of first
refusal shall be subject to the following additional provisions of this Section
3. The right of first refusal in this Section 3.1 shall not be applicable (i) to
the issuance or sale of New Securities to employees, consultants, officers or
directors pursuant to any stock purchase plan or arrangement, stock option plan
or other stock incentive plan or agreement approved by the Board of Directors,
(ii) to or after consummation of an Initial Offering, (iii) to the issuance of
New Securities pursuant to the conversion or exercise of convertible or
exercisable securities, (iv) to
11
12
the issuance of New Securities in connection with a bona fide business
acquisition by the Company, whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets,
sale or exchange of stock or otherwise, or (v) to the issuance of New Securities
in connection with debt financing transactions through a bank or other financial
institution or equipment lease financings.
3.2 DEFINITION OF NEW SECURITIES. "New Securities" shall mean any
capital stock of the Company whether now authorized or not, and rights, options
or warrants to purchase capital stock, and securities of any type whatsoever
that are, or may become, convertible into or exercisable for shares of capital
stock.
3.3 REQUIRED NOTICES. In the event the Company proposes to
undertake an issuance of New Securities, it shall give each Holder written
notice, pursuant to the provisions of Section 9 hereof, of the proposed
issuance, describing the type of New Securities, the price, the general terms
upon which the Company proposes to issue the same and the pro rata portion of
such New Securities such Holder is entitled to purchase. Each Holder shall have
thirty (30) days after the date of receipt of such notice to agree to purchase
such Holder's pro rata share of such New Securities for the price and upon the
general terms specified in the notice by giving written notice to the Company
and stating therein the quantity of New Securities to be purchased. In the event
the Holders fail to fully exercise the right of first refusal as to their pro
rata share of New Securities (the "Unexercised Securities") offered within said
thirty (30) day period, the Company shall give each Holder who has elected to
exercise such right of first refusal notice that it may elect to purchase all or
any portion of the Unexercised Securities upon similar terms as previously
offered. Each such Holder shall have thirty (30) days after the date of receipt
of such notice to agree to purchase all or any portion of the Unexercised
Securities by giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the
quantity of Unexercised Securities to be purchased; provided that if the Holders
in the aggregate elect to purchase more shares than are available as Unexercised
Securities, such securities shall be allocated to such Holders on a pro rata
basis according to each such Holder's Ownership Percentage.
3.4 COMPANY'S RIGHT TO SELL. In the event the Holders in the
aggregate fail to exercise the right of first refusal as to all of the New
Securities offered within the 30 or 60 day period, as applicable, provided in
Section 3.3 above, the Company shall have sixty (60) days after the expiration
of such period to sell or enter into an agreement (pursuant to which the sale of
New Securities covered thereby shall be closed, if at all, within sixty (60)
days from the date of said agreement) and to sell all such New Securities
respecting which the Holders' options were not exercised, at a price and upon
general terms no more favorable in any material respect to the purchasers
thereof than specified in the Company's notice. In the event the Company has not
sold within said sixty (60) day period or entered into an agreement to sell all
such New Securities within said sixty (60) day period (or sold and issued all
such New Securities in accordance with the foregoing within sixty (60) days from
the date of said agreement), the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any
New Securities, without first offering such securities to the Holders in the
manner provided above.
3.5 ASSIGNMENT. The right of first refusal set forth in this
Section 3 is nonassignable, except that (a) such right is assignable by each
Holder to any wholly-owned subsidiary, to any entity under common investment
management with such Holder (in the case of any Holder that is an investment
company), or to any corporation, entity or other person which is, within the
meaning of the Securities Act, controlled by any such Holder, (b) such right is
assignable between and among any of the Holders, (c) upon the death of any
individual Holder, such right shall pass to the beneficiaries under the deceased
Holder's last will and testament or to the distributees of
12
13
the deceased Holder's estate, and (d) such right is assignable by a partnership
to its partners in connection with distributions to the partners and if so
assigned will be treated as one Holder for purposes of this Section 3.
3.6 TERMINATION. The right of first refusal granted to Holders
pursuant to this Section 3 shall terminate upon the closing of the Company's
initial firm commitment underwritten public offering; provided that such right
shall not be applicable to the securities issued in such public offering.
4. COVENANTS. The Company further agrees to the following covenants
which shall remain in effect until expiration as provided in Section 4.5 below:
4.1 INFORMATION RIGHTS.
(a) The Company shall furnish to each Investor (provided
that such Investor agrees to maintain the confidentiality thereof, it being
understood that, in the case of Intel, such agreement is set forth in that
certain Corporate Non-Disclosure Agreement dated May 4, 1999), as soon as
practicable after the end of each fiscal year, and in any event within ninety
(90) days thereafter, audited consolidated balance sheets of the Company and its
subsidiaries, if any, as at the end of such fiscal year, and audited
consolidated statements of income and cash flows of the Company and its
subsidiaries, if any, for such fiscal year, prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, all in reasonable detail and
accompanied by a report and opinion thereon, by independent public accountants
selected by the Company's Board of Directors.
(b) In addition to the information specified in Section
4.1(a) above, the Company shall furnish to any Holder of at least 1,000,000
Series A Shares, Series B Shares, or common stock issued upon conversion thereof
(as adjusted for any combinations, consolidations, stock distributions or stock
dividends with respect to such shares), the following reports provided such
Holder agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the following information to
the extent specified by the Board of Directors (it being understood that, in the
case of Intel, such agreement is set forth in that certain Corporate
Non-Disclosure Agreement dated May 4, 1999):
(i) As soon as practicable, but in any event within
forty-five (45) days after the end of each of the first three (3) quarters of
each fiscal year of the Company, an unaudited profit or loss statement and
statement of cash flows, and an unaudited balance sheet as of the end of such
fiscal quarter;
(ii) As soon as practicable, but in any event within
thirty (30) days after the end of each month an unaudited monthly profit and
loss statement and cash flow statement and balance sheet; and
(iii) As soon as practicable, but in any event at
least thirty (30) days before the end of each fiscal year, a budget and business
plan for the next fiscal year, in such manner and form as approved by the Board
of Directors of the Company, which financial plan shall include a projection of
income and a projected cash flow statement for such fiscal year and a projected
balance sheet as of the end of such fiscal year.
(c) Provided the Holder continues to hold at least 1,000,000
Series A Shares, Series B Shares, or common stock issued upon conversion thereof
(as adjusted for any
13
14
combinations, consolidations, stock distributions or stock dividends with
respect to such shares), the Holder or Holder's representation shall have the
right during normal business hours, to visit and inspect the properties of the
Company, including its corporation and financial records, and to discuss its
business and finances with officers of the Company.
(d) The rights granted pursuant to this Section 4.1 may
not be assigned or otherwise conveyed by any Holder or by any subsequent
transferee of any such rights without the written consent of the Company, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that the Company may refuse
such written consent if the proposed transferee is a competitor of the Company;
and provided further, that no such written consent shall be required if the
transfer is in connection with the transfer of securities to any partner or
retired partner of any Holder that is a general or limited partnership or to any
such partner's estate.
(e) The rights granted pursuant to this Section 4.1 shall
terminate upon the Company's Initial Offering. Following the Company's Initial
Offering, the Company shall deliver to Intel copies of the Company's 10-K's,
10-Q's, 8-K's and Annual Reports to Stockholders promptly after such documents
are filed with the SEC.
4.2 EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTIONS AND RESTRICTED STOCK. All options or
restricted stock issued pursuant to the Company's stock option plans and
restricted stock purchase plans shall be approved by the Board of Directors and
shall be subject to a vesting period of not less than four years, unless an
exception to the standard vesting is approved by the Board of Directors.
Additionally, unless otherwise approved by the Board of Directors, the Company
shall cause each employee who becomes a holder of shares of the Company's common
stock, whether through purchase of restricted stock or otherwise, to execute a
stock restriction agreement, pursuant to which the Company shall have right (but
not the obligation) to repurchase at the purchase price paid by the employee all
or any part of the shares held by the employee in the event the employee's
employment with the Company is terminated prior to 48 months from the date of
employment; provided, however, that on the first anniversary of employee's
employment with the Company, 25% of the employee's shares shall no longer be
subject to repurchase, and, provided further that each month following the first
anniversary of employee's employment with the Company, an additional 1.56% of
the employees shares no longer be subject to repurchase. All shares of common
stock held by employees of the Company shall be subject to a right of first
refusal granted to the Company.
4.3 PROPRIETARY RIGHTS AGREEMENTS. Each officer, employee or
consultant of the Company will execute a proprietary information agreement in a
form approved by the Company's Board of Directors.
4.4 APPROVAL OF EXPENDITURES. All agreements or transactions
involving expenditures in excess of $1,000,000 shall be reviewed and approved by
the Company's Board of Directors.
4.5 ELECTION OF DIRECTOR. For so long as entities affiliated with
Xxxxxxx Capital ("Xxxxxxx Entities") hold at least 50% of the Series B Shares
originally purchased by them pursuant to that certain Series B Preferred Stock
Purchase Agreement dated February 16, 2000 (the "Series B Purchase Agreement")
or common stock issued upon conversion of such Series B Shares, all parties to
this Agreement that hold shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall, at any annual
or special meeting of stockholders at which directors of the Company are to be
elected, vote all such shares of Series B Preferred Stock in favor of the
election of the nominee of Xxxxxxx Capital. This Section 4.5 shall
14
15
apply with equal force to actions by written consent relating to the election of
directors of the Company.
4.6 EXPIRATION OF COVENANTS. The covenants set forth in this
Section 4 shall expire and be of no further force or effect upon the Company's
Initial Offering.
5. RIGHT OF PURCHASE IN INITIAL OFFERING.
(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, in
the event that the Company undertakes the initial Public Offering of its Common
Stock (the "Initial Offering"), the Company shall request, and use its
commercially reasonable best efforts to cause, the managing underwriter or
underwriters of the Initial Offering to establish a directed shares program (a
"Directed Shares Program"), pursuant to which a limited number of the securities
to be offered in the Initial Offering ("Directed Shares") would be offered to
"friends of the Company" at the initial public offering price. In the event that
any such Directed Shares Program were established, each Series B Holder would
have the right to purchase on a priority basis, at a minimum, such number of
Directed Shares determined by multiplying (i) such Series B Holder's Pro-Rata
Share (as defined in Section 3.1) by (ii) the total number of Directed Shares;
provided that the managing underwriter or underwriters may reduce the number of
Directed Shares included in any Directed Shares Program to the extent counsel to
the Company reasonably deems necessary to comply with applicable laws and
regulations, including without limitation those promulgated by the SEC and/or
The National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. In the event that the
provisions of this Section 5 may be deemed an offer to sell securities, such
offer shall be void ab initio.
(b) Each Series B Holder shall have the right to apportion their
participation in the Initial Offering pursuant to this Section 5 among any of
its partners, members, shareholders, affiliates or any other person or entity
under common investment management with such Series B Holder.
(c) Each Series B Holder shall, as a condition to its
participation in any Directed Share Program, execute such other documents as may
be required of all participants in the Directed Share Program as deemed
necessary by the Company and the Underwriters.
(d) The rights described in this Section 5 shall terminate and be
of no further force and effect following the consummation of the Company's
Initial Offering.
6. ASSIGNABILITY. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the respective heirs, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.
7. LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of California.
8. AMENDMENT. 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), only with the
written consent of (i) the Company, and (ii) the holders of a majority of the
Registrable Shares. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no
amendment or waiver to Section 16 of this Agreement shall be effective without
the written consent of Intel.
15
16
9. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together
shall constitute one instrument.
10. NOTICE. Unless otherwise provided, any notice required or permitted
under this Agreement shall be in writing, shall be effective upon receipt or, if
earlier, (i) five (5) days after deposit with the U.S. postal service or other
applicable postal service, if delivered by registered or certified mail, postage
prepaid, return receipt requested, (ii) upon delivery, if delivered by hand,
(iii) one (1) business day after the day of deposit with Federal Express or

Agreement regarding this Agreement, those parties agree to negotiate in good
faith to resolve the dispute between them regarding this Agreement. If the
negotiations do not resolve the dispute to the reasonable satisfaction of both
parties, then each party shall nominate one partner, member or senior officer of
the rank of Vice President or higher as its representative. These
representatives shall, within thirty (30) days of a written request by either
party to call such a meeting, meet in person and alone (except for one assistant

disputes cannot be resolved by such senior managers in such meeting, the parties
agree that they shall, if requested in writing by either party, meet within
thirty (30) days after such written notification for one day with an impartial
mediator and consider dispute resolution alternatives other than litigation. If
any alternative method of dispute resolution is not agreed upon within thirty
(30) days after the one day mediation, either party may begin litigation
proceedings. This procedure shall be a prerequisite before taking any additional
action hereunder.
17. INFORMATION CONFIDENTIAL. The parties hereto are bound by the
confidentiality and non-disclosure provisions of Section 7.13 of the Series B
Purchase Agreement.
