(b) Any attempted transfer of Shares other than in accordance with this Agreement and any Transfer Restriction Agreements (as defined below) shall be null and void, and the Company shall refuse to recognize any such transfer and shall not reflect on its records any change in record ownership of Shares pursuant to any such transfer.
(c) Founder acknowledges that the Shares may be subjected to further transfer restrictions, including, but not limited to, rights of first refusal and co-sale in connection with one or more transactions in which the Company issues shares of its preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, and Founder agrees to execute such agreements (“Transfer Restriction Agreements”) evidencing such restrictions as the Company may reasonably request.
3.2 Repurchase Option. The Company shall have a right and option (the “Repurchase Option”) to purchase Unvested Shares from Founder in accordance with the following provisions:
(a) The Company may exercise the Repurchase Option at any time during the 45-day period following the Termination of Founder’s Service. Failure of the Company to exercise its Repurchase Option within such 45-day period shall be deemed to constitute a notification to Founder of the Company’s decision not to exercise its Repurchase Option.
(b) The purchase price for Unvested Shares purchased upon exercise of the Repurchase Option shall be $0.001 per share.
(c) The Repurchase Option shall be exercisable by the Company by written notice delivered to Founder or his or her personal representative prior to the expiration of the 45-day period specified in Subsection 3.2(a). Such notice shall indicate the number of Unvested Shares to be purchased and the date (not later than 10 days after the date of expiration of the Repurchase Option) on which the purchase is to be effected. To the extent one or more certificates representing Unvested Shares may have been previously delivered out of escrow to Founder, Founder, prior to the close of business on the date specified for the repurchase, shall deliver to the Company the certificate(s) representing the Unvested Shares to be purchased, each certificate to be properly endorsed for transfer and free and clear of any restrictions (other than the restrictions imposed under this Agreement and any Transfer Restriction Agreements), Liens, or claims, against payment of the purchase price for the Unvested Shares by check payable to the order of Founder.
(d) If the Company shall make available, at the time and place and in the amount and form provided in this Agreement, the consideration for the Unvested Shares to be repurchased in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, then from and after such time,
3
Founder shall no longer have any rights as a holder of such Unvested Shares (other than the right to receive payment of such consideration in accordance with this Agreement), and such Unvested Shares shall be deemed purchased in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement and the Company shall be deemed the owner and holder of such shares, whether or not the certificates for such shares have been delivered as required by this Agreement.
(e) In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class effected without consideration, then any new, substituted, or additional securities or other property (including money paid other than as a regular cash dividend) that is by reason of any such transaction distributed with respect to the Unvested Shares shall be immediately subject to the Repurchase Option to the extent the Unvested Shares are at the time covered by such Repurchase Option. Appropriate adjustments to reflect the distribution of such securities or property shall be made to the number of Unvested Shares under this Agreement and to the price per share to be paid upon the exercise of the Repurchase Option in order to reflect the effect of any such transaction upon the Company’s capital structure.
3.3 Vesting; Termination of Repurchase Option.

In addition, all Unvested Shares shall immediately vest upon the consummation of any Corporate Transaction that occurs following the Qualified Financing.
(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Unvested Shares shall cease to vest immediately upon Termination of Founder’s Service.
(c) Upon the vesting of Unvested Shares, the Repurchase Option shall automatically terminate with respect to such Shares, and such Shares shall become Vested Shares and shall no longer be subject to the Repurchase Option, but shall nevertheless remain subject to the other provisions of this Agreement and to any Transfer Restriction Agreements.
3.4 Company’s Right of First Refusal.
(a) Except for the Company’s Repurchase Option set forth in Section 3.2, Founder shall not transfer any Unvested Shares. Founder agrees that if Founder intends to transfer any or all of the Vested Shares, Founder will first give the Company notice in writing of such proposed transfer. Such notice (the “Notice”) will contain (1) the name and address of Founder and the proposed transferee, (2) the terms and conditions of such transfer, including, in the event that any third party offer has been received by Founder and Founder intends to accept such offer, the purchase price, and if such price is to be paid in whole or in part in consideration other than cash, a full and complete description of such non-cash consideration, and (3) an offer
4
(the “Required Offer”) to sell such Vested Shares to the Company at a price per share equal to the proposed consideration for the transfer of such Vested Shares. The board of directors of the Company will determine the fair cash equivalent of any proposed consideration that is other than cash. At any time during the 30-day period immediately following the delivery of the Notice to the Company, the Company will have the exclusive right and option, but not the obligation, to accept the Required Offer and proceed with the purchase of such Vested Shares pursuant to such Required Offer. In the event the Company does not exercise its rights as set forth in this Section, Founder will be free to transfer such Vested Shares under the terms and conditions stated in the Notice; provided, however, that if such transfer does not take place within 60 days following the delivery of the Notice to the Company, the terms of this Section must once again be followed prior to the transfer of the Vested Shares. Any Vested Shares that are transferred pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section will continue to be subject to the right of first refusal set forth in this Section subsequent to any such transfer. If at any time a proposed transfer by Founder applies to less than all of the Vested Shares of Founder, the right of first refusal granted in this Agreement to the Company will remain in full force and effect as to the remainder of such Vested Shares, regardless of whether it is exercised with respect to such initial portion. Founder may not pledge or otherwise encumber any of the Vested Shares without the written consent of the Company.
(b) The right of first refusal stated in this Agreement will survive the termination of this Agreement. The Company also has the right to assign the right of first refusal stated in this Agreement. The right of first refusal stated in this Agreement will not apply to transfers of Vested Shares pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution; provided, however, that any such Vested Shares will be subject to the right of first refusal set forth in this Section subsequent to any such transfer. The right of first refusal stated in this Agreement will not apply to the exchange of Vested Shares pursuant to a plan of merger, consolidation, recapitalization, or reorganization of the Company, but any stock, securities or other property received in exchange therefor will be subject to the right of first refusal set forth in this Agreement; provided, however, that any such stock or securities received in any such merger, consolidation, recapitalization, or reorganization will not be subject to the right of first refusal set forth in this Section if the stock or securities received in such merger, consolidation, recapitalization, or reorganization are registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. A dissolution or liquidation of the Company will not trigger the right of first refusal set forth in this Agreement; provided, however, that a dissolution or a liquidation of the Company within one year following the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in exchange for stock or securities will be considered a reorganization of the Company. The right of first refusal set forth in this Section will terminate upon the consummation by the Company of a public offering of Common Stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act.
Section 4. ESCROW.
4.1 Deposit. Certificates representing the Unvested Shares shall be deposited in escrow with the Company to be held in accordance with the provisions of this Section. Each deposited certificate shall be accompanied by a duly executed assignment separate from certificate in the form attached as Exhibit A. The deposited certificates, together with any other assets or securities from time to time deposited with the Company pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement, shall remain in escrow until such time or times as the certificates (or other
5
assets and securities) are to be released or otherwise surrendered for cancellation in accordance with Section 4.3. Upon delivery of the certificates (or other assets and securities) to the Company, the holder shall be issued a deposit receipt acknowledging the number of Unvested Shares or other assets and securities delivered in escrow to the Company.
4.2 Recapitalization. Any cash dividends on the Unvested Shares (or other securities at the time held in escrow) shall be paid directly to the holder and shall not be held in escrow. However, in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, or other change affecting the Company’s outstanding Common Stock as a class effected without consideration, any new, substituted, or additional securities or other property that by reason of such transaction is distributed with respect to the Unvested Shares shall be immediately delivered to the Company to be held in escrow under Section 4, but only to the extent the Unvested Shares are at the time subject to the escrow requirements of Section4.1.
4.3 Release; Surrender.
(a) If the Company exercises the Repurchase Option with respect to any Unvested Shares, then the escrowed certificates for such Unvested Shares or the certificates representing such Unvested Shares (together with any other assets or securities issued with respect to such Unvested Shares) shall be delivered to the Company for cancellation, concurrently with the payment to Founder of the amount provided for in Section 3.2(a) above, as applicable, and Founder shall cease to have any further rights or claims with respect to such Unvested Shares (or other assets or securities).
(b) When the Unvested Shares (or any other assets or securities issued with respect to such Unvested Shares) vest in accordance with Section 3.3, the certificates for such Vested Shares shall, at Founder’s request, no more than once in any six month period be promptly released from escrow and delivered to Founder.
(c) All shares released from escrow in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.3(b) nevertheless remain subject to the other provisions of this Agreement and to any Transfer Restriction Agreements.
Section 5. LEGENDS; STOP TRANSFER.
5.1 Restrictive Legends. In order to reflect the restrictions on the transfer of the Shares set forth or referred to in this Agreement, the certificates representing Shares shall be endorsed with legends to the following effect:
“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED WITHOUT COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION OR QUALIFICATION PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR APPLICABLE EXEMPTIONS THEREFROM.”
6
“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, ENCUMBERED, OR IN ANY MANNER DISPOSED OF, EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF A FOUNDER STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE INITIAL HOLDER OF THE SHARES. THE FOUNDER STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT GRANTS CERTAIN PURCHASE OPTIONS TO THE COMPANY AND IMPOSES RESTRICTIONS ON THE TRANSFER OF THESE SHARES. A COPY OF THE FOUNDER STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT IS ON DEPOSIT AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY AND WILL BE FURNISHED BY THE COMPANY TO THE REGISTERED HOLDER HEREOF UPON WRITTEN REQUEST.”
5.2 Enforcement; Stop Transfer. No Shares shall be transferred on the books of the Company nor shall any attempted sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, or other disposition of any Shares be effective unless and until the terms and provisions of this Agreement and any Transfer Restriction Agreements are first complied with. Any attempted sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, or other disposition of any Shares that does not comply with the provisions of this Agreement and Transfer Restriction Agreements shall be invalid and of no effect.
Section 6. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
6.1 Exemption from Registration. The Shares have not been registered under the Act or the securities laws of any state and are being issued to Founder in reliance upon exemptions from such registration under the Act or the securities laws of any state. Founder understands and agrees that the Shares may not be resold or transferred without registration under the Act and applicable state securities laws unless an exemption from such registration is available. Accordingly, Founder acknowledges that he or she is prepared to hold the Shares for an indefinite period and that he or she is aware that Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Act is not currently available to exempt the sale of the Shares from the registration requirements of the Act and may not be available at the time Founder wishes to sell the Shares. Prior to acquiring the Shares, Founder obtained sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed decision to acquire the Shares. Founder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to make him or her capable of utilizing such information to evaluate the risks of the prospective, investment and to make an informed investment decision. Founder is able to bear the economic risk of his or her investment in the Shares.
6.2 Stockholder Rights. For so long as Founder holds shares, Founder shall have all the rights of a stockholder (including voting and dividend rights) with respect to the Shares, subject in all respects to the provisions of any Transfer Restriction Agreement.
6.3 Market Stand-Off. In connection with any underwritten public offering by the Company of its equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Act, including the Company’s initial public offering, Founder shall not sell, make any short sale of, loan, pledge, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose or transfer for
7
value or otherwise agree to engage in any of the foregoing transactions with respect to, any shares of Common Stock without the prior written consent of the Company or its underwriters, for such period of time (not to exceed 180 days) from and after the effective date of such registration statement as may be requested by the Company or such underwriters.
6.4 Section 83(b) Election. Founder understands that, under Section 83 of the Code, the difference between the purchase price paid for the Shares and its fair market value at the time any forfeiture restrictions applicable to such shares lapse may be reportable as ordinary income at that time. For this purpose, the term “forfeiture restrictions” includes the right of the Company to repurchase the Shares pursuant to its Repurchase Option. Founder understands that he or she may elect to be taxed at the time the Shares are acquired under this Agreement to the extent the fair market value of the Shares differs from the purchase price, rather than when and as such Shares cease to be subject to such forfeiture restrictions, by filing an election under Section 83(b) of the Code with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days after the Effective Date. If the fair market value of the Shares at the time of purchase equals the purchase price paid or if it is likely that the fair market value of the Shares at the time any forfeiture restrictions lapse shall exceed the fair market value of the time of purchase, the election may avoid adverse tax consequences in the future. A form for making this election is attached as Exhibit B. Founder understands that the failure to make this filing within said 30-day period shall result in the recognition of ordinary income by Founder (in the event the fair market value of the Shares increases after the date of purchase) as the forfeiture restrictions lapse. Founder acknowledges that it is his or her sole responsibility, and not the Company’s, to file a timely election under Section 83(b), even if Founder requests the Company or its representative to make this filing on his or her behalf.
6.5 Company Counsel. Founder acknowledges that Xxxxxx & Xxxxxx L.L.P., counsel for the Company, represented the Company in the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, including the formation and initial capitalization of the Company, and has not represented the Founder or any individual shareholder or employee of the Company in connection with such transactions.
6.6 Assignment. The Company may assign its Repurchase Option to any person, including, without limitation, one or more stockholders of the Company.
6.7 No Employment Contract. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon Founder any right to continue in the employment of the Company for any period of time or interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Company or Founder, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate the employment of Founder at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause.
6.8 Notices. All notices, requests, consents, and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given when delivered personally or by facsimile transmission or by overnight delivery service or 72 hours after having been mailed by first class certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid:
If to the Company, at 000 Xxxx 0xx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000, Attention: President (fax (000) 000-0000), or at such other address or addresses as may

If to Founder, at the address set forth on the signature page below or at such other address as may have been furnished in writing by Founder to the Company.
6.9 No Waiver. The failure of the Company to exercise any Repurchase Option shall not constitute a waiver of any other Repurchase Option or similar rights that may subsequently arise under the provisions of this Agreement. No waiver of any breach or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach or condition, whether of like or different nature.
6.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire contract between the parties to this Agreement with regard to the subject matter of this Agreement.
6.11 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS, AND NOT THE LAW OF CONFLICTS, OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE.
6.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
6.13 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its respective successors and assigns, and Founder and his or her legal representatives, heirs, legatees, distributees, assigns, and transferees by operation of law, whether or not any such person shall have become a party to this Agreement.
