Section 2. Registration; Restrictions on Transfer.
2.1 Restrictions on Transfer.
(a) Each Holder agrees not to make any disposition of all or any
portion of the Shares or Registrable Securities unless and until:
(i) There is then in effect a registration statement under the
Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made
in accordance with such registration statement; or
(ii) (A) The transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by
the terms of this Agreement, (B) such Holder shall have notified the Company of
the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a reasonably
detailed written statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed
disposition (such statement to include, without limitation, the name of the
transferee, the number of shares to be transferred, the price per share and type
of consideration to be received in the transfer (except for transfers to
affiliates that do not manufacture or distribute customizable personal
television systems or services) and the timing of such transfer) and (C) if
reasonably requested by the Company, such Holder shall have furnished the
Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that
such disposition will not require registration of such shares under the
Securities Act. It is agreed that the Company will not require opinions of
counsel for transactions made pursuant to Rule 144 except in unusual
circumstances.
(iii) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (i) and (ii)
above, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary
for a transfer by a Holder (A) which is a partnership to its partners or former
partners in accordance with partnership interests, (B) which is a corporation to
its stockholders in accordance with their interest in the corporation, (C) which
is a limited liability company to its members or former members in accordance
with their interest in the limited liability company, (D) to the Holder's family
member or trust for the benefit of an individual Holder, or (E) to an affiliate
of Holder that does not manufacture or distribute customizable personal
television systems or services; provided that in each case the transferee will
be subject to the terms of this Agreement to the same extent as if he were an
original Holder hereunder.
(b) Each certificate representing Shares or Registrable Securities
shall (unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of the Agreement) be stamped
or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially similar to the following (in
addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws or as
provided elsewhere in this Agreement):
3.
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY
NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE
ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AS TO THE
SECURITIES UNDER SAID ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY
TO THE CORPORATION THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO AN
INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT, AS AMENDED, THAT CONTAINS CERTAIN
RESTRICTIONS ON THE TRANSFERABILITY OF THE SECURITIES, INCLUDING
A MARKET STAND-OFF AGREEMENT. A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE
OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE SECRETARY OF THE
CORPORATION.
(c) The Company shall be obligated to reissue promptly unlegended
certificates at the request of any holder thereof if the holder shall have
obtained an opinion of counsel (which counsel may be counsel to the Company)
reasonably acceptable to the Company to the effect that the securities proposed
to be disposed of may lawfully be so disposed of without registration,
qualification or legend.
(d) Any legend endorsed on an instrument pursuant to applicable state
securities laws and the stop-transfer instructions with respect to such
securities shall be removed upon receipt by the Company of an order of the
appropriate blue sky authority authorizing such removal.
2.2 Demand Registration.
(a) Subject to the conditions of this Section 2.2, if the Company
shall receive a written request from the Holders of at least thirty percent
(30%) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding (the "Initiating Holders")
that the Company file a registration statement under the Securities Act covering
the registration of Registrable Securities having an aggregate offering price to
the public of at least $10,000,000 (a "Qualified Public Offering"), then the
Company shall, within thirty (30) days of the receipt thereof, give written
notice of such request to all Holders, and subject to the limitations of this
Section 2.2, use its best efforts to effect, as soon as practicable, the
registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities that the
Holders request to be registered.
(b) If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable
Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so
advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this Section 2.2
or any request pursuant to Section 2.4 and the Company shall include such
information in the written notice referred to in Section 2.2(a) or Section
2.4(a), as applicable. In such event, the right of any Holder to include its
Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such
Holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's
Registrable Securities in the underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed by
a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders and such Holder) to the extent
provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities
4.
through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in
customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such
underwriting by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders (which
underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company).
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.2 or Section 2.4, if the
underwriter advises the Company that marketing factors require a limitation of
the number of securities to be underwritten (including Registrable Securities)
then the Company shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities which
would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares that
may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated to the Holders of such
Registrable Securities on a pro rata basis based on the number of Registrable
Securities held by all such Holders (including the Initiating Holders). Any
Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be
withdrawn from the registration.
(c) The Company shall not be required to effect a registration
pursuant to this Section 2.2:
(i) prior to the earlier of September 1, 2001 or 180 days
after the effective date of a registration statement pertaining to the Initial
Offering; and
(ii) after the Company has effected two (2) registrations
pursuant to this Section 2.2, and such registrations have been declared or
ordered effective.
2.3 Piggyback Registrations. The Company shall notify all Holders of
Registrable Securities in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the filing
of any registration statement under the Securities Act for purposes of a public
offering of securities of the Company (including, but not limited to,
registration statements relating to secondary offerings of securities of the
Company, but excluding registration statements relating to employee benefit
plans or with respect to corporate reorganizations or other transactions under
Rule 145 of the Securities Act) and will afford each such Holder an opportunity
to include in such registration statement all or part of such Registrable
Securities held by such Holder. Each Holder desiring to include in any such
registration statement all or any part of the Registrable Securities held by it
shall, within fifteen (15) days after the above-described notice from the
Company, so notify the Company in writing. Such notice shall state the intended
method of disposition of the Registrable Securities by such Holder. If a Holder
decides not to include all of its Registrable Securities in any registration
statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless
continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in any
subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by
the Company with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and
conditions set forth herein.
(a) Underwriting. If the registration statement under which the
Company gives notice under this Section 2.3 is for an underwritten offering, the
Company shall so advise the Holders of Registrable Securities in the above-
described notice. In such event, the right of any such Holder to be included in
a registration pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be conditioned upon such
Holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's
Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All
Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such
underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with
the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company.
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement, if the
5.
underwriter determines in good faith that marketing factors require a limitation
of the number of shares to be underwritten, the number of shares that may be
included in the underwriting shall be allocated, first, to the Company; second,
to the Holders on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable
Securities held by the Holders; and third, to any stockholder of the Company
(other than a Holder) on a pro rata basis. No such reduction shall (i) reduce
the securities being offered by the Company for its own account to be included
in the registration and underwriting, or (ii) reduce the amount of securities of
the selling Holders included in the registration below thirty percent (30%) of
the total amount of securities included in such registration, unless such
offering is the Initial Offering and such registration does not include shares
of any other selling stockholders, in which event any or all of the Registrable
Securities of the Holders may be excluded in accordance with the immediately
preceding sentence.
(b) Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right
to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 2.3
prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has
elected to include securities in such registration. The Registration Expenses of
such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with
Section 2.5 hereof.
2.4 Form S-3 Registration. In case the Company shall receive from any
Holder or Holders of at least 100,000 shares of Registrable Securities a written
request or requests that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3 (or any
successor to Form S-3) or any similar short-form registration statement 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 of Registrable
Securities; and
(b) as soon as practicable, 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 Securities as are specified in such request, together with
all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holder or Holders
joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within
fifteen (15) 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 2.4:
(i) if Form S-3 (or any successor or similar form) is not
available for such offering by the Holders, or
(ii) if the Holders, together with the holders of any other
securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to
sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate
price to the public of less than $3,000,000, or
(iii) if the Company has, within the twelve (12) month period
preceding the date of such request, already effected two (2) registrations on
Form S-3 for the Holders pursuant to this Section 2.4, or
6.
(iv) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would
be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general consent to service
of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance.
(c) Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a Form S-3
registration statement covering the Registrable Securities and other securities
so requested to be registered as soon as practicable after receipt of the
request or requests of the Holders. All such Registration Expenses incurred in
connection with registrations requested pursuant to this Section 2.4 after the
first four (4) registrations shall be paid by the selling Holders pro rata in
proportion to the number of shares sold by each.
2.5 Expenses of Registration. Except as specifically provided herein, all
Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration,
qualification or compliance pursuant to Section 2.2 or any registration under
Section 2.3 or Section 2.4 herein shall be borne by the Company. All Selling
Expenses incurred in connection with any registrations hereunder, shall be borne
by the holders of the securities so registered pro rata on the basis of the
number of shares so registered. The Company shall not, however, be required to
pay for expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2.2 or
2.4, the request of which has been subsequently withdrawn by the Initiating
Holders unless (a) the withdrawal is based upon material adverse information
concerning the Company of which the Initiating Holders were not aware at the
time of such request or (b) the Holders of a majority of Registrable Securities
agree to forfeit their right to one requested registration pursuant to Section
2.2 or Section 2.4, as applicable, in which event such right shall be forfeited
by all Holders. If the Holders are required to pay the Registration Expenses,
such expenses shall be borne by the holders of securities (including Registrable
Securities) requesting such registration in proportion to the number of shares
for which registration was requested. If the Company is required to pay the
Registration Expenses of a withdrawn offering pursuant to clause (a) above, then
the Holders shall not forfeit their rights pursuant to Section 2.2 or Section
2.4 to a demand registration.
2.6 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required to effect the
registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously
as reasonably possible:
(a) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with
respect to such Registrable Securities and use all reasonable efforts to cause
such registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the
Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep
such registration statement effective for up to ninety (90) days or, if earlier,
until the Holder or Holders have completed the distribution related thereto.
(b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to
such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such
registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the
Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such
registration statement.
(c) Furnish to the Holders such number of copies of a prospectus,
including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the
Securities Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order
to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them.
7.
(d) Use all reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities
covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky
laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders,
provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a
condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to
service of process in any such states or jurisdictions.
(e) 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(s) of such offering. Each Holder
participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its
obligations under such an agreement.
(f) Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event
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.
(g) Furnish, at the request of a majority in interest of the Holders
participating in the registration, on the date that such Registrable Securities
are delivered to the underwriters for sale, 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 as of 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 and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the Holders
requesting registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the
Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities and (ii) a letter
dated as of 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 and
reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the Holders requesting
registration, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and if permitted by
applicable accounting standards, to the Holders requesting registration of
Registrable Securities.
2.7 Termination of Registration Rights. All registration rights granted
under this Section 2 shall terminate and be of no further force and effect five
(5) years after the date of the Company's Initial Offering. In addition, a
Holder's registration rights shall expire if (a) the Company has completed its
Initial Offering and is subject to the provisions of the Exchange Act, and (b)
all Registrable Securities held by and issuable to such Holder may be sold under
Rule 144 during any ninety (90) day period. Following such expiration provided
for in the preceding two sentences, such Holder's shares of Common Stock of the
Company shall no longer be considered Registrable Securities for purposes of
this Section 2.
2.8 Delay of Registration; Furnishing Information.
(a) No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction
restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result of any
controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or
implementation of this Section 2.
8.
(b) The Company shall not be required to submit any registration
statement to the Commission pursuant to Section 2.2, 2.3 or 2.4 if the selling
Holders have not furnished to the Company such information regarding themselves,
the Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method of disposition
of such securities as shall be required to effect the registration of their
Registrable Securities; provided, however, that the Company may eliminate the
shares proposed to be sold by any selling Holder from registration pursuant to
Section 2.2, 2.3 or 2.4 if such Holder has not provided such information, to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Company, within twenty (20) days of having
received written notice of a request for such information from the Company.
(c) The Company shall have no obligation with respect to any
registration requested pursuant to Section 2.2 or Section 2.4 if, due to the
operation of subsection 2.2(b), the number of shares or the anticipated
aggregate offering price of the Registrable Securities to be included in the
registration does not equal or exceed the number of shares or the anticipated
aggregate offering price required to originally trigger the Company's obligation
to initiate such registration as specified in Section 2.2 or Section 2.4,
whichever is applicable.
2.9 Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included
in a registration statement under Sections 2.2, 2.3 or 2.4:
(a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the
partners, officers, directors and legal counsel of each Holder, any underwriter
(as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who
controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or
the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or
several) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange
Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a
"Violation") by the Company: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including
any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any
amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged
violation by the Company 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 in connection with the offering
covered by such registration statement; and the Company will reimburse each such
Holder, partner, officer, director, legal counsel, underwriter or controlling
person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection
with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action; provided however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section
2.9(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 Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the
Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability
or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which
occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
expressly for use in connection with such registration by such Holder, partner,
officer, director, legal counsel, underwriter or controlling person of such
Holder.
9.
(b) Each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder
are included in the securities as to which such registration qualifications or
compliance is being effected, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of
its directors, its officers, and legal counsel and each person, if any, who
controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, any underwriter
and any other Holder selling securities under such registration statement or any
of such other Holder's partners, directors or officers or any person who
controls such Holder, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint
or several) to which the Company or any such director, officer, controlling
person, underwriter or other such Holder, or partner, director, officer or
controlling person of such other Holder may become subject under the Securities
Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or
are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the
extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished by such Holder under an instrument duly executed
by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use in connection with such
registration; and each such Holder will reimburse any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer, legal counsel,
controlling person, underwriter or other Holder, or partner, officer, director,
legal counsel or controlling person of such other Holder in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if
it is judicially determined that there was such a Violation; provided, however,
that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.9(b) 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; provided further, that in no event shall any
indemnity under this Section 2.9 exceed the proceeds from the offering received
by such Holder.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section
2.9 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental
action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be
made against any indemnifying party under this Section 2.9, deliver to the
indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the
indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent
the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually
satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall
have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid
by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the
counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual
or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other
party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver
written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the
commencement of any such action, if materially prejudicial to its ability to
defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to
the indemnified party under this Section 2.9, but the omission so to deliver
written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability
that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 2.9.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.9 is held
by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party
with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein,
the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party
thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable law contribute to
10.
the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss,
claim, damage or liability 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 Violation(s) that resulted in such
loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the
indemnified party shall be determined by a court of law by reference to, among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
or 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 any contribution by a
Holder hereunder exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.
(e) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section
2.9 shall survive completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a
registration statement and the termination of this agreement. No Indemnifying
Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the
consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter
into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the
giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from
all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
2.10 Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company
to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2 may be assigned by
a Holder to a transferee or assignee of Registrable Securities which (a) (i) is
a subsidiary, parent, affiliate, general partner, limited partner or retired
partner of a Holder, or (ii) is a Holder's family member or trust for the
benefit of an individual Holder, and (b) acquires at least thirty percent (30%)
of the shares of Registrable Securities held by a Holder as of the date of this
Agreement. No assignment of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2.10
shall be effective unless (A) the transferor shall, within ten (10) days after
such transfer, furnish to the Company written notice of the name and address of
such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such
registration rights are being assigned and (B) such transferee shall agree to be
subject to all restrictions set forth in this Agreement.
2.11 Amendment Of Registration Rights. Any provision of this Section 2
may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in
a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the
written consent of the Company and the Holders of at least sixty-six and two-
thirds percent (66-2/3%) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding;
provided, however, that any alteration or change in the rights or privileges of
any series of Series Preferred that discriminates against such series of Series
Preferred shall additionally require the written consent of at least sixty-six
and two-thirds percent (66-2/3%) of such series of Series Preferred. Any
amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 2.11 shall be
binding upon each Holder and the Company. By acceptance of any benefits under
this Section 2, Holders of Registrable Securities hereby agree to be bound by
the provisions hereunder.
2.12 "Market Stand-Off" Agreement. Each Holder hereby agrees that such
Holder shall not sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Common Stock (or
other securities) of the Company held by such Holder (other than those included
in the registration) for a period
11.
specified by the representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (or other
securities) of the Company not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days following
the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the
Securities Act, provided that such agreement shall apply only to the Company's
Initial Offering.
Each Holder agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be
reasonably requested by the Company or the underwriter which are consistent with
the foregoing or which are necessary to give further effect thereto. The
obligations described in this Section 2.12 shall not apply to a registration
relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-1 or Form S-8 or similar
forms that may be promulgated in the future, or a registration relating solely
to a Commission Rule 145 transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be
promulgated in the future. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions
with respect to the shares of Common Stock (or other securities) subject to the
foregoing restriction until the end of said one hundred eighty (180) day period.
2.13 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available to the Holders
the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the
sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the
Company agrees to use its best efforts to:
(a) Make and keep public information available, as those terms are
understood and defined in SEC Rule 144 or any similar or analogous rule
promulgated under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date of
the first registration filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to
the general public;
(b) File with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act;
(c) So long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to
such Holder forthwith upon request: a written statement by the Company as to its
compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144 of the Securities
Act, and of the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such
reporting requirements); a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of
the Company; and such other reports and documents as a Holder may reasonably
request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing it to
sell any such securities without registration.

such Form S-1 or amendment, and (ii) each exhibit as filed with such Form S-1 or

requested; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated under this
Section 3.2 with respect to a competitor of the Company or with respect to
information which the Board of Directors determines in good faith is
confidential and should not, therefore, be disclosed. So long as NBC Multimedia,
Inc. and National Broadcasting Company, Inc.
13.

affiliates) do not manufacture or distribute customizable personal television
systems or services, the Company acknowledges and agrees that Xxxx Disney
Company shall not be considered to be competitors of the Company for purposes of
this Section 3.2.
3.3 Confidentiality of Records. Each Investor agrees to use, and to use
its best efforts to insure that its authorized representatives use, the same
degree of care as such Investor uses to protect its own confidential information
to keep confidential any information furnished to it which the Company
identifies as being confidential or proprietary (so long as such information is
not in the public domain), except that such Investor may disclose such
proprietary or confidential information to any partner, subsidiary or parent of
such Investor for the purpose of evaluating its investment in the Company as
long as such partner, subsidiary or parent is advised of the confidentiality
provisions of this Section 3.3.
3.4 Strategic Value I, L.P. Board Observer. So long as Strategic Value

3.4 that each person proposing to attend any meeting of the Company's Board of
Directors and each person to have access to any of the information provided by
the Company to the Board of Directors shall agree to hold in confidence and
trust and to act in a fiduciary manner with respect to all information so
received during such meetings or otherwise; and, provided further, that the
Company reserves the right not to provide information and to exclude the SVI

information or attendance at such meeting by such SVI Representative would
result in disclosure of trade secrets to the SVI Representative or would

Section 3.4 during any period in which an officer of SVI is serving as a
director of the Company.

proposing to attend any meeting of the Company's Board of Directors and each
person to have access to any of the information provided by the Company to the
Board of Directors shall agree to hold in confidence and trust and to act in a
fiduciary manner with respect to all information so received during such
meetings or otherwise; and, provided further, that the Company reserves the
right not to provide information and to exclude
14.
the Vulcan Representative from any meeting or portion thereof if delivery of
such information or attendance at such meeting by such Vulcan Representative
would result in disclosure of trade secrets to the Vulcan Representative or
would adversely affect the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its
counsel. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Vulcan shall have no rights under this
Section 3.5 during any period in which an officer of Vulcan is serving as a
director of the Company.
3.6 Showtime Board Observer. So long as Showtime or one of its

of the Company's Board of Directors in a nonvoting observer capacity, to receive
notice of such meetings and to receive the information provided by the Company
to the Board of Directors; provided, however, that the Showtime Representative
executes a nondisclosure agreement in a form acceptable to the Company; provided
further, that the Company may require as a condition precedent to Showtime's
rights under this Section 3.6 that each person proposing to attend any meeting
of the Company's Board of Directors and each person to have access to any of the
information provided by the Company to the Board of Directors shall agree to

the date of this Agreement, other than the Equity Securities excluded by Section
4.6 hereof. Each Investor's pro rata share is equal to the ratio of (a) the

Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Shares) which such
Investor is deemed to be a holder immediately prior to the issuance of such
Equity Securities to (b) the total number of shares of the Company's outstanding
Common Stock (including all shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon
conversion of the Shares or upon the exercise of any outstanding warrants or
options) immediately prior to the issuance of the Equity Securities. The term
"Equity Securities" shall mean (i) any Common Stock, Preferred Stock or other
security of the Company, (ii) any security convertible, with or without
consideration, into any Common Stock, Preferred Stock or other security
(including any option to purchase such a convertible security), (iii) any

describing the Equity Securities, the price and the terms and conditions upon

specified in the notice by giving written notice to the Company and stating

foregoing, the Company shall not be required to offer or sell such Equity
Securities to any Investor who would cause the Company to be in violation of
applicable federal securities laws by virtue of such offer or sale.

ninety (90) days thereafter to sell the Equity Securities in respect of which
the Investor's rights were not exercised, at a price and upon general terms and
conditions materially no more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified
in the Company's notice to the Investors pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof. If the
Company has not sold such Equity Securities within ninety (90) days of the
notice provided pursuant to Section 4.2, the Company shall not thereafter issue
or sell any Equity Securities, without first offering such securities to the
Investors in the manner provided above.
4.4 Termination of Rights of First Refusal. The rights of first refusal
established by this Section 4 shall not apply to, and shall terminate upon the
effective date of the registration statement pertaining to the Company's Initial

split, stock dividend or recapitalization by the Company;

such transactions and the issuance of shares therein, have been approved by the
Company's Board of Directors; and
(f) any Equity Securities issued in connection with strategic
transactions involving the Company and other entities, including (i) joint
ventures, manufacturing, marketing or distribution arrangements or (ii)
technology transfer or development arrangements; provided that such strategic
transactions and the issuance of shares therein, have been approved by the

exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to any Holder, upon any breach,
default or noncompliance of the Company under this Agreement shall impair any
such right, power, or remedy, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any
such breach, default or noncompliance, or any acquiescence therein, or of any
similar breach, default or noncompliance thereafter occurring. It is further
agreed that any waiver, permit, consent, or approval of any kind or character on
any Holder's part of any breach, default or noncompliance under the Agreement or
