HOWEVER, that any such Transfer by Xx. Xxxxxxxx shall be subject to and
conditioned upon the Purchaser being provided reasonably satisfactory
evidence that the proceeds from any such Transfer will be applied as provided
in this Section 2.1(b).
Section 2.2 RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL.
(a) Except as expressly permitted under Section 3.5 hereof,
if any Stockholder proposes to, directly or indirectly, Transfer all or any
of its Company Equity Interests (any such Stockholder, a "TRANSFERRING
STOCKHOLDER"; and any such interest, a "RELEVANT SECURITY") to any Person
(such Person, a "THIRD PARTY TRANSFEREE", and any such proposed Transfer, a
"THIRD PARTY TRANSFER"), the Transferring Stockholder shall send a written
notice (a "TRANSFER NOTICE") to the Purchaser (with a copy to the Company),
which Transfer Notice shall state (A) the type, number and/or principal
amount of Relevant Securities proposed to be transferred to the Third-Party
Transferee (the "TRANSFER SECURITIES"), (B) the proposed purchase price per
Relevant Security to be paid by the Third Party Transferee (the "TRANSFER
PRICE"), (C) the name of the Third Party Transferee, and (D) the proposed
closing date for the Third Party Transfer (the "THIRD PARTY CLOSING DATE"),
which Third Party Closing Date shall not be sooner than 20 days from the date
a Transfer Notice is received (as determined under Section 5.6 hereof) by the
Purchaser. The Transfer Notice shall also state any other material terms and
conditions of the Third Party Transfer and shall include copies of the
contemplated definitive agreements (to the extent available and, if not
available, drafts thereof that are the most recent versions thereof) for the
Third Party Transfer and all writings between the Third Party Transferee and
the Transferring Stockholder that would be reasonably necessary for the
Purchaser to establish the terms and conditions of the Third Party Transfer.
(i) The Transfer Notice shall not be effective
unless and until all of the following conditions are met: (A) the
Transfer Notice is accompanied by a certificate of the Transferring
Stockholder to the Purchaser stating that the Third Party Transfer,
if it is not a Public Resale, has been approved by the board of
directors (or the equivalent if the Third Party Transferee is not a
corporation) of the Third Party Transferee (if required by such
Third Party Transferee and solely to the Transferring Stockholder's
knowledge based on representations and warranties of the Third Party
Transferee), that the Stockholder has made the Third Party
Transferee aware of the rights of the Purchaser contained in this
Section 2.2(a), and that, subject to Section 2.2(b) hereof, unless
such Third Party Transfer, if consummated, would constitute a Public
Resale, the Third Party Transferee will be obligated to become a
party to this Agreement and agree in writing to be bound by the
terms and conditions hereof to the same extent and in the same
manner as the Transferring Stockholder; (B) the Transfer Price shall
be payable in cash, cash equivalents or Readily Marketable
Securities; and (C) the Third Party Transferee shall have furnished
evidence satisfactory to the Purchaser
7
in its reasonable judgment as to the financial ability or resources of
such Third Party Transferee to consummate the proposed purchase.
(ii) For a period of 20 days after the receipt
(as determined under Section 5.6 hereof) of the Transfer Notice
pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(i) (the "OPTION PERIOD"): (A) the
Purchaser or its designees shall have the right to purchase all of
the Transfer Securities at a purchase price equal to the Transfer
Price and upon the terms and conditions of the Third Party Transfer;
or (B) if the Purchaser and its designees do not elect to purchase
all of the Transfer Securities pursuant to clause (A) of this
Section 2.2(a)(ii), the Transferring Stockholder shall have the
right to sell, to the Third Party Transferee upon the terms and
conditions set forth in the Third Party Transfer, that number of
Relevant Securities specified in the Transfer Notice.
(iii) The option of the Purchaser or its designees
under Section 2.2(a)(ii)(A) shall be exercisable by delivering
written notice of the exercise thereof, which shall be irrevocable,
prior to the expiration of the Option Period, to the Transferring
Stockholder (with a copy to the Company). Such notice shall state
that the Purchaser or its designees desires to purchase the Transfer
Securities pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(ii)(A). The failure of the
Purchaser to deliver such written notice prior to the expiration of
the Option Period to the Transferring Stockholder shall be deemed to
be a waiver of its rights under Section 2.2(a)(ii)(A). The tender of
such notice shall constitute agreement by the Purchaser to purchase
from the Transferring Stockholder the Transfer Securities at the
Transfer Price and on the terms and conditions set forth in the
Transfer Notice.
(iv) The closing of the purchase of Transfer
Securities subscribed to by the Purchaser or its designees under
Section 2.2(a)(ii)(A) shall be held at the principal office of the
Purchaser at 10:00 a.m., local time, on the Third Party Closing Date
or at such other time and place as the parties to the transaction
may agree; PROVIDED that the Third Party Closing Date shall be
extended to a later date not to exceed 60 days after such Third
Party Closing Date if the Transfer has not been consummated by the
Third Party Closing Date as a result solely of a failure to obtain a
required consent or approval of any Governmental Entity and the
parties are using reasonable commercial efforts to obtain such
required consent or approval; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that such 60-day
period shall be extended until such required regulatory consents or
approvals are obtained if the delay in obtaining such required
regulatory consents and approvals is solely as a result of the
failure of the Company to cooperate in a commercially reasonable
manner with the Transferring Stockholder or the Purchaser in
obtaining the required regulatory consents and approvals for such
Transfer. The Company shall take such actions as the Purchaser
reasonably requests, at the Company's sole cost and expense, to
finalize the Transfer of the Transfer Securities to the Purchaser,
including, without limitation, cooperating with the Purchaser in
seeking to obtain and obtaining all authorizations, consents, orders
and approvals of any Governmental Entity that may be necessary to
allow the Purchaser to purchase the
8
Transfer Securities. At such closing, the Transferring Stockholder
shall deliver to the Purchaser or its designees certificates
representing the Transfer Securities, duly endorsed with a signature
guarantee for transfer and accompanied by all requisite transfer
taxes, if any, and such Transfer Securities shall be free and clear
of any liens, claims, options, charges, encumbrances or rights
("LIENS") (other than those arising hereunder), and the Transferring
Stockholder shall so represent and warrant, and shall further
represent and warrant that it is the beneficial and record owner of
such Transfer Securities. The Purchaser or its designees shall, at
such closing, deliver to the Transferring Stockholder payment in
full in immediately available funds for the Transfer Securities
purchased by it. At such closing, all of the parties to the
transaction shall execute such additional documents as are otherwise
necessary or appropriate.
(v) Unless the Purchaser or its designees elect
to purchase all of the Transfer Securities pursuant to Section
2.2(a)(ii)(A), the Transferring Stockholder may sell such portions
of its Company Equity Interests as can be sold under Section
2.2(a)(ii)(B) to the Third Party Transferee on the terms and
conditions of the Third Party Transfer; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such
sale is bona fide and made prior to or on the Third Party Closing
Date or such later date not to exceed 60 days after such Third Party
Closing Date as the Transferring Stockholder and the Third Party
Transferee may agree if the Transfer has not been consummated by the
Third Party Closing Date as a result solely of a failure to obtain
consent or approval of any Governmental Entity (including the
Securities and Exchange Commission in the case of Public Resale) and
the parties are using reasonable commercial efforts to obtain such
consent or approval; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that such 60-day period
shall be extended until the required regulatory consents or
approvals are obtained if the delay in obtaining such required
regulatory consents and approvals is solely a result of the failure
of the Company to cooperate in a commercially reasonable manner with
the Transferring Stockholder in obtaining such required regulatory
consents and approvals. If such sale is not consummated prior to or
on the Third Party Closing Date for any reason, except as the same
may be extended as provided above, then the restrictions provided
for in this Section 2.2(a) shall again become effective, and no
Transfer of such Transfer Securities may be made thereafter by the
Transferring Stockholder without again offering the same to the
Purchaser in accordance with this Section 2.2(a). The Company shall
take such actions as the Transferring Stockholder reasonably
requests, at the Transferring Stockholder's sole cost and expense,
to facilitate the Transfer of the Transfer Securities to the Third
Party Transferee pursuant to the Third Party Transfer.
(b) It shall be a condition to any Third Party Transfer
made pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(v), that, unless such Third Party Transfer
would constitute a Public Resale or unless the Third Party Transferee would,
after giving effect to the Third Party Transfer, Beneficially Own less than
1% of the Common Stock then outstanding, the Third Party Transferee be
obligated to become a party to this Agreement and agree, pursuant to a
written agreement satisfactory to the Purchaser, to become a party to, and be
deemed a "Stockholder" under, this Agreement and be subject to and bound by
the
9
terms and conditions hereof to the same extent and in the same manner as the
Transferring Stockholder; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, if such Third Party Transfer
would constitute a Public Resale and any direct or indirect Third Party
Transferee and its Affiliates and Associates would, to the Transferring
Stockholder's knowledge (which would include any knowledge obtained from any
underwriter or placement agent for Third Party Transfer after requiring any
such underwriter or placement agent to agree to use its reasonable best
efforts to obtain such knowledge and communicate the same to the Transferring
Stockholder), Beneficially Own in excess of 5% of the Common Stock then
issued and outstanding immediately after giving effect to such Third Party
Transfer, such direct or indirect Third Party Transferee and its Affiliates
and Associates will be obligated to become a party to this Agreement and
agree, pursuant to a written agreement satisfactory to the Purchaser, to
become a party to, and be deemed a "Stockholder" under, this Agreement and be
subject to and bound by the terms and conditions hereof to the same extent
and in the same manner as the Transferring Stockholder.

the Purchaser may (x) irrevocably Transfer such 6.15% Notes or 8.5% Purchaser
Notes or such shares of Common Stock to a liquidating trust so that after
giving effect to such Transfer, it no longer Beneficially Owns or owns of

and elects to exercise (and then to the extent, but only to the extent, such
holder exercises) such rights in connection with the Tag-Along Transfer
(calculated with respect to the Purchaser to include any shares of Class A
Common Stock that may be received upon conversion of outstanding 6.15% Notes
and 8.5% Purchaser Notes, only if such 6.15% Notes and 8.5% Purchaser Notes
may then be immediately converted in accordance with their terms prior to or
upon such Transfer and the Purchaser irrevocably notifies the Company that it
intends to convert 6.15% Notes and 8.5% Purchaser Notes prior to or
concurrently with the Tag-Along Transfer and Transfer the shares of Class A
Common Stock into which they convert to the Third Party Transferee as part of
the exercise of its Tag-Along Right and it subsequently converts such 6.15%
11
Notes and 8.5% Purchaser Notes, in which case only such shares of Class A
Common Stock obtained upon conversion of 6.15% Notes and 8.5% Purchaser Notes
prior to or concurrently with the Tag-Along Transfer shall be included for
purposes of calculating the number of shares owned by the Purchaser and its
Affiliates; and calculated to include any shares of Common Stock that may be
received upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Company Convertible
Securities that are among the Company Equity Interests proposed to be
Transferred by the Transferring Stockholder or any other holder participating in
such Tag-Along Transfer); and (ii) the number of shares of the Common Stock
proposed to be Transferred in the contemplated Transfer (calculated to include
any shares of Common Stock that may be received upon conversion, exercise or
exchange of any Company Convertible Securities that are among the Company Equity
Interests proposed to be Transferred by the Transferring Stockholder), and at
the same price per share and upon the same terms and conditions offered to the
Transferring Stockholder(s). The Company Equity Interests to be Transferred by
the Transferring Stockholders in such Tag-Along Transfer shall be reduced by the
number of shares of Common Stock that the Purchaser elects to require the
Third Party Transferee to purchase in such Tag-Along Transfer pursuant to the
Purchaser's right contained in the preceding sentence.
By way of example only, if a Transferring Stockholder intends
to sell 1,000 shares of Common Stock to a third party, and at such time such
Stockholder owns 75,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, the Purchaser owns
20,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, the other stockholders of the Company who
have similar "tag-along" rights have elected not to participate in such
Tag-Along Transfer, and the Purchaser has notified the Company that it intends
to convert 8.5% Purchaser Notes to obtain an additional 5,000 shares of Class A
Common Stock (although it has 6.15% Notes and 8.5% Purchaser Notes convertible
into more shares of Class A Common Stock) and sell such shares in connection
with the exercise of its Tag-Along Right, then the Purchaser, if it gives
irrevocable notice of such conversion and intention to sell, shall be entitled
to Transfer 250 shares of Class A Common Stock exercising its Tag-Along Right in
such sale (calculated by solving for: (25,000) (25,000 + 75,000)) x 1,000) and
the Transferring Stockholder shall be entitled to Transfer the remaining 750
shares of Class A Common Stock in such tag-along sale.
(b) The Transferring Stockholder(s) shall give written
notice (the "TAG-ALONG NOTICE") to the Purchaser of each proposed Transfer
giving rise to the Tag-Along Right, which Tag-Along Notice shall state (i)
the maximum Company Equity Interests proposed to be Transferred, (ii) the
proposed purchase price per Company Equity Interest, (iii) the name of the
Third Party Transferee, and (iv) the proposed closing date for the Transfer,
which date shall be no sooner than 20 days from the date the Tag-Along Notice
is received (as determined under Section 5.6 hereof) by the Purchaser. The
Tag-Along Notice shall also state any other material terms and conditions of
the proposed Transfer, and shall include copies of the contemplated
definitive agreements for the offer (to the extent available and, if not
available, drafts thereof that are the most recent versions thereof) and all
writings between the Transferring Stockholder(s) and the transferee necessary
to establish the terms and conditions of the offer. The Tag-Along Notice
shall not be effective unless and until (A) the Tag-Along Notice shall be
accompanied with a certificate of the Transferring Stockholder(s) to the
Purchaser stating
12
that the offer has been approved by the board of directors (or the equivalent
if the offeror is not a corporation) of the offeror (if required by such
offeror and solely to the Transferring Stockholder's knowledge based on
representations and warranties of the offeror), and that such Transferring
Stockholder(s) have made the offeror aware of the rights of the Purchaser
contained in, and that any Transfer by the Transferring Stockholders is
subject to this, Section 3.2, (B) the consideration to be received by the
Purchaser in the Tag-Along Transfer consists entirely of cash and/or
securities of a Person, which securities are registered under the Exchange
Act and are traded on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock
Exchange, The Nasdaq National Market or any successor or equivalent
securities exchange, and (C) the offeror shall furnish evidence satisfactory
to the Purchaser in its reasonable judgment as to the financial ability or
resources of such offeror to consummate the proposed purchase if it is a cash
offer. Assuming all of the provisions of this Section 3.2(b) and Section
2.2(a)(i) are satisfied and specific reference is made to such sections, the
Tag-Along Notice and the Transfer Notice may take the form of one notice.
(c) The Tag-Along Right provided by this Section 3.2 must
be exercised by the Purchaser within the 20-day period following the receipt
(as determined under Section 5.6 hereof) of the Tag-Along Notice by delivery
prior to the end of such 20-day period of a written notice (the "ACCEPTANCE
NOTICE") to the Transferring Stockholder(s) stating the Purchaser's desire to
exercise its Tag-Along Right under this Section 3.2 and specifying the number
of shares of Class A Common Stock it desires to sell. The tender of the
Acceptance Notice by the Purchaser shall constitute agreement by the
Purchaser to sell in connection with the Tag-Along Transfer the amount of
securities specified and at the price specified in the Acceptance Notice and
otherwise on the terms and conditions set forth in the notice provided by the
Transferring Stockholder to the Purchaser. Failure to deliver the Acceptance
Notice within 30 days after delivery of the Tag-Along Notice shall be deemed
a determination by the Purchaser not to exercise its Tag-Along Right and a
waiver of such right. If the sale contemplated by the Tag-Along Notice is not
consummated on the same terms and conditions as those contained in the
Tag-Along Notice for any reason, then the restrictions provided for herein
shall again become effective, and the Transferring Stockholders may not
Transfer any Company Equity Interests without complying with the provisions
of this Section 3.2.
(d) The closing of the purchase by the Third Party
Transferee of the shares of Class A Common Stock owned by the Purchaser shall
be held (i) at the principal office of the Company on the same day as the
closing of the sale from the Transferring Stockholder(s) to the Third Party
Transferee, or (ii) at such other time and place as the parties to the
applicable transaction may agree; PROVIDED that the date of such closing
shall be extended to a later date not to exceed 60 days after such date of
such closing if such closing has not been consummated by such date of closing
as a result solely of a failure to obtain a required consent or approval of
any Governmental Entity and the parties are using reasonable commercial
efforts to obtain such required consent or approval; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that
such closing shall be extended until such required regulatory consents and
approvals are obtained if the delay in obtaining such required regulatory
consents and approvals is a result of the failure of the Company to cooperate
in a commercially reasonable manner with the Purchaser in obtaining such
required
13
consents and approvals. At such closing, the Transferring Stockholder(s) and
the Purchaser shall each deliver certificates or other instruments
representing the Company Equity Interests being Transferred, duly
authenticated for transfer and accompanied by all requisite transfer taxes,
if any, and such Company Equity Interests shall be free and clear of any
Liens other than those arising hereunder. The Purchaser shall further
represent and warrant that it Beneficially Owns such Common Equity Interests,
that it or its designee is the record holder of such Common Equity Interests
and that the delivery of such Common Equity Interests shall convey good and
marketable title to such Common Equity Interests. At such closing, the Third
Party Transferee shall deliver payment in full in immediately available funds
for the Common Equity Interests purchased by such Third Party Transferee.
(e) From the date hereof until this Agreement is no longer
in effect, no Stockholder (to the extent this Section 3.2(e) is applicable to
any such Stockholder) will amend, modify or supplement in any manner or grant
any consent under the letter, dated the date of the 1999 Purchase Agreement,
among the Stockholders party thereto and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx without the
Purchaser's prior consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed
or conditioned.
Section 3.3 DIRECTORS. Each Stockholder agrees that in the
event the Purchaser elects to select one or two nominees to the Board of
Directors pursuant to Section 5.2 of the 1999 Purchase Agreement, and so
notifies the Stockholders each year at least 30 days prior to the election
held to elect directors, the Stockholders shall either (i) take all action to
nominate and cause the election of one such person as a Class B Director (as
defined in the Company's Amended Certificate of Incorporation as in effect on
the date hereof) for as long as such Stockholders are entitled to nominate
and vote as a separate class for the election of Class B Directors to the
Board of Directors, or (ii) if he or it does not own any shares of Class B
Common Stock, vote his or its shares of Class A Common Stock in favor of any
Purchaser nominee to the Board of Directors nominated pursuant to the 1999
Purchase Agreement.
Section 3.4 RULE 144. The Company covenants that it shall
file any reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act; and that
it shall take such further action as may be reasonably necessary (including
providing any information necessary to comply with Rule 144 under the
Securities Act), all to the extent required from time to time to enable the
Purchaser and its Affiliates to Transfer shares of Class A Common Stock
(including the shares of Class A Common Stock underlying the 6.15% Notes or
8.5% Purchaser Notes) without registration under the Securities Act within
the limitation of the exemptions provided by (a) Rule 144 under the
Securities Act, as such rules may be amended from time to time, or (b) any
similar rules or regulations hereafter adopted by the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The Company shall, upon the request of the Purchaser and its
Affiliates, deliver to such Purchaser and its Affiliates a written statement
as to whether it has complied with such requirements.
Section 3.5 ASSOCIATE TRANSFER EXCEPTION. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of Sections 2.2 and
3.2 shall not apply to any Transfer of Company Equity Interests by a
Stockholder to any Affiliate or Associate
14
of such Stockholder or any foundation or other not-for-profit organization
established by a Stockholder if such Transfer constitutes a bona fide gift;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, as a condition to any such Transfer, such transferee shall
have first agreed, pursuant to a written agreement satisfactory to the
Purchaser, to take such Company Equity Interests subject to the terms of this
Agreement and to become a party to, and be deemed a "Stockholder" under, this
Agreement and be subject to and bound by all of the terms and conditions of
this Agreement to the same extent and in the same manner as the transferring
Stockholder.
Section 3.6 LEGENDS.
(a) Each certificate, note or instrument representing
Company Equity Interests now or hereafter held by Stockholder shall be
stamped with a legend substantially in the following form (in addition to any
other legends required under applicable law or deemed appropriate or
necessary by the Company):
"The securities represented by this
[certificate/note/instrument] are subject to restrictions on
transfer, including any sale, pledge or other hypothecation,
set forth in a stockholders agreement among Metromedia Fiber
Networks, Inc. ("MFN"), Verizon Investments Inc. and certain
other stockholders of the Company, a copy of which agreement
may be obtained at no cost by written request made by the
holder of record of this certificate to the secretary of MFN
at MFN's principal executive offices."
(b) Each Stockholder agrees to deliver, within ten (10) days
of the date of this Agreement or of the date of first becoming a Stockholder
hereunder, to the Company, as applicable, all certificates, notes or other
instruments representing Company Equity Interests for the purposes of
affixing the legend provided for in Section 3.6(a) above thereto, and the
Company agree to affix or cause to be affixed) such legend thereto promptly

certificates, notes or instruments.
(c) Upon the Purchaser's delivery to the Company of any
certificate representing shares of Class A Common Stock purchased by the
Purchaser from the Company pursuant to the 1999 Purchase Agreement, the
Company shall reissue or cause to be reissued promptly (but in any event
within five (5) days of receipt of such certificate) a replacement
certificate that does not contain the second legend specified in Section
2.3(b) or Section 2.3A(b) of the 1999 Purchase Agreement.
Section 3.7 SPECIAL CONVERSION PROVISIONS. Notwithstanding
the first proviso to Section 4.01 of each of the 6.15% Notes Indenture and
the 8.5% Purchaser Notes Indenture, if the Purchaser or any permitted
transferee desires to convert any of the 6.15% Notes or 8.5% Purchaser Notes
and as a result it would become an "affiliate" for purposes of and under
either of the Franchise Agreements (as defined in the 6.15% Notes Indenture),
the Company shall consent to any such conversion and instruct the trustee
under the 6.15% Notes Indenture and/or the 8.5% Purchaser Notes Indenture, as
15
applicable, to cause such conversion accordingly if, in connection with a
demand for conversion, the Purchaser or any such permitted transferee
provides a satisfactory indemnification to the Company and its subsidiaries
against any additional expenses, fees, taxes or other amounts that would be
payable by the Company or any of its subsidiaries to any Governmental Entity
as a result of the fact that the Purchaser or any such permitted transferee
would be deemed an "affiliate", in the reasonable opinion of the Company
after consultation with outside counsel, for purposes of any of the Franchise
Agreements solely as a result of such conversion.
