corporation ("iPrint"), and the undersigned (the "Shareholder"), a shareholder
of Wood Alliance, Inc., a California corporation ("Wood").
WHEREAS, iPrint and Wood propose to enter into an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization of even date herewith (the "Reorganization Agreement," which term
does not include any amendment thereto which materially and adversely affects
the Shareholder), which provides for, among other things, the merger of a wholly
owned subsidiary of the iPrint with and into Wood upon the terms and subject to
the conditions set forth in the Reorganization Agreement;
WHEREAS, iPrint has requested that the Shareholder agree, and, in order to
induce iPrint to enter into the Reorganization Agreement, the Shareholder has
agreed to enter into this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the
meanings ascribed to them in the Reorganization Agreement, a copy of which has
been furnished to the Shareholder.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual
agreements and covenants set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound
hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. VOTING OF SHARES
1.1 Voting of Shares and Proxy.
At every meeting of the shareholders of Wood called, and at every
adjournment thereof, and on every action or approval by written consent of the
shareholders of Wood, the Shareholder shall cause the Shares (as defined below)
to be voted: (i) in favor of the Wood Proposal; (ii) against any proposal for
any merger, consolidation, sale of assets, recapitalization or other business
combination involving Wood (other than the Combination) (any of the foregoing a
"Wood Acquisition Transaction") or any other action or agreement that would
result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other
obligation or agreement of Wood under the Reorganization Agreement or which
would result in any of the conditions to Wood's or iPrint's obligations under
the Reorganization Agreement not being fulfilled; and (iii) in favor of any
other matter relating to consummation of the transactions provided for by the
Reorganization Agreement.
"Shares" shall mean: (i) all securities of Wood (including all shares of
common stock of Wood ("Wood Common Stock") and all options, warrants and other
rights to acquire such securities) owned by the Shareholder as of the date of
this Agreement, all of which are accurately listed on the signature page hereof;
and (ii) all additional securities of Wood (including all shares of Wood Common
Stock and all additional options, warrants and other rights to acquire such
1
securities) of which the Shareholder acquires beneficial ownership or right to
vote or control the vote during the period from the date of this Agreement
through the termination of this Agreement. In the event of a stock dividend or
distribution, or any change in Wood Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend
or distribution, or any change, in Wood Common Stock by reason of any stock
dividend, split-up, recapitalization, combination, exchange of shares or the
like, the term "Shares" shall be deemed to refer to and include the Shares as
well as all such stock dividends and distributions and any securities into which
or for which any or all of the Shares may be changed or exchanged or which are
received in such transaction. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to restrict
or in any way affect action taken or omitted by Shareholder or any individual
affiliated with the Shareholder in such person's capacity as a director or
officer of Wood.
Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Shareholder agrees
to execute and deliver to iPrint a proxy in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
-------
A (the "Proxy"), which shall be irrevocable to the fullest extent permissible by
-
law but subject to termination as stated therein, with respect to the Shares.
The Shareholder hereby gives any consent or waivers that are reasonably
required for the consummation of the Combination under the terms of any
agreements to which the Shareholder is a party.
2. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERS OF SHARES
2.1 Restrictions on Transfer of Shares Prior to the Effective Time.
(a) Prior to the Effective Time, the Shareholder hereby agrees
not to take any of the following actions, except in accordance with subsection

into or exchangeable or exercisable for the Shares to any person;
(ii) sell, transfer, distribute, pledge, encumber, assign
or otherwise dispose of (or enter into any transaction or device that is
designed to, or could reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition by
any person at any time in the future of) any of the Shares or any securities
convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for the Shares;
(iii) enter into any swap or other derivatives transaction
that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic benefits or
risks of ownership of any of the Shares;
(iv) enforce or permit the execution of the provisions of
any redemption, share purchase or sale, recapitalization or other agreement with
Wood;

depositary facility or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect
to any Shares or grant any
2
proxy with respect thereto other than as contemplated hereby or the
Reorganization Agreement; or
(vi) enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or
understanding with respect to or consent to the offer for sale, sale, transfer,
pledge, encumbrance, assignment or other disposition of, any of the Shares, any
securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Wood
Common Stock or any other capital stock of Wood or any interest in any of the
foregoing with any person (any transaction referred to in clause (i), (ii),
(iii), (iv), (v) or (vi) is hereinafter referred to as a "Transfer").
(b) Shareholder shall not request that Wood or its transfer agent
register the Transfer (book-entry or otherwise) of any certificate or
uncertificated interest representing any of the Shares, and each Shareholder

serve process in accordance with this Section 4.8, (ii) that it or its property
