THIS CONTRIBUTION AND ROLLOVER AGREEMENT is made as of March 6, 2007, by and among Innovation
Technology Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and each of the persons
listed on Schedule A hereto as a Stockholder (collectively, the “Stockholders,” and
each individually, a “Stockholder”).
WHEREAS, the Company, Vitria Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Vitria
Technology”) and ITG Acquisition, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”)
are parties to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of September 20, 2006 (the “Merger
Agreement”) pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into Vitria Technology (the
“Merger”);
WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, upon consummation of the Merger all of
the outstanding capital stock of Vitria Technology (other than shares held by the Company) will be
cancelled and the holders thereof will be entitled to receive cash consideration based on the
number of shares of capital stock held by them immediately prior to the Merger;
WHEREAS, prior to the Merger, the Stockholders listed on Schedule B hereto
(collectively, the “Contributors,” and each individually, a “Contributor”) desire
to contribute, transfer and deliver to the Company the property identified on Schedule B
hereto (the “Contribution Property”) and, in exchange for the Contribution Property, upon
the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement the Company shall issue a number of
shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per
share (the “Preferred Stock”), to the Contributors;
WHEREAS, it is the intention of the parties that the contribution of the Contribution Property
and issuance of the Preferred Stock in exchange therefor occur prior to the consummation of the
Merger in a transaction that is integrated with the Company’s issuance and sale of Preferred Stock
to Weston Presidio V, L.P. (“WP”) pursuant to that certain Series A Preferred Stock Purchase
Agreement, dated December 27, 2006, by and among the Company and WP (the “Purchase
Agreement”), which issuance and sale would occur substantially concurrently with the
consummation of the Merger; and
WHEREAS, the transactions effectuated pursuant to this Contribution Agreement and the Purchase
Agreement are intended to qualify under Section 351 of the Internal Revenue Code as a tax free
exchange.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
SECTION I — CONTRIBUTION; ISSUANCE OF SHARES
1.1. Contribution; Issuance of Shares; Closing. (a) Upon the terms and subject
to the conditions of this Agreement, each Contributor shall severally contribute, assign and
transfer, free and clear of all liens, mortgages, security interests, charges and
1
encumbrances to the Company, and the Company shall accept, all of such Contributor’s right,
title and interest in the number of shares or interests of Contribution Property set forth
opposite the name of such Contributor, as applicable, on Schedule B hereto. In
exchange for the transfer of the Contribution Property, the Company shall issue to each
Contributor the respective number of shares of Preferred Stock set forth opposite the name
of such Contributor on Schedule B hereto, representing an aggregate of 24,096,386
shares of Preferred Stock. The Shares so acquired shall have the rights, preferences and
other terms set forth in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the
Company (the “Certificate”) attached as Exhibit A hereto. Each Contributor
hereby acknowledges that from and after the Closing (as defined below), the Company shall be
the owner of all right, title and interest in and to the Contribution Property. Each
Contributor hereby further agrees that he or she shall not at any time do or suffer to be
done any act or thing that may materially adversely affect any rights of the Company in and
to the Contribution Property. Each Contributor shall take all actions necessary to execute
any and all documents as may be reasonably requested by the Company from time to time to
fully vest or perfect in the Company all right, title and interest in and to the
Contribution Property.
(b) Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth herein, the
contribution of Contribution Property in exchange for Shares shall be made at a closing (the
“Closing”) to be held on the date that is prior to the Merger and is no later than
two (2) business days following the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to closing set
forth in Section IV hereof or at such other time as agreed upon by the parties hereto. At
the Closing, the Company will deliver to each Contributor one or more certificates
representing the Shares issued against contribution of Contribution Property to such
Contributor as set forth on Schedule B hereto.
SECTION II — REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY
In order to induce the Stockholders to enter into this Agreement and consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby, the Company hereby makes to the Stockholders the following
representations and warranties.
2.1. Authorization. The Company has full right, power and authority to execute, deliver
and perform this Agreement and all other documents contemplated hereby. This Agreement and all
other agreements and instruments contemplated hereby which are to be executed by the Company, when
executed and delivered by the Company, will constitute the valid and legally blinding obligations
of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as the enforceability of this
Agreement and such other agreements and instruments may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws relating to or affecting generally the enforcement of
creditors’ rights and except as the remedy of specific performance may be unavailable in certain
cases.
2.2. The Shares. The Shares to be issued by the Company hereunder have been duly
authorized by the Company and, when issued and delivered in exchange for Contribution
2
Property as provided for herein, will be duly and validly issued and will be fully paid and nonassessable; and
the issuance of the Shares is not subject to any preemptive or similar rights.
2.3. No Operations. The Company has not conducted any business operations prior to the
date of this Agreement other than in connection with its formation and the Merger.
SECTION III — REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE STOCKHOLDERS
Each Stockholder, severally and not jointly (and, in the case of each of Drs. Xxxxx and Xxxxx,
jointly with such Stockholder’s spouse), hereby represents, warrants and covenants that:
3.1. Authority. Stockholder has full right, power and authority to execute, deliver and
perform this Agreement and all other documents contemplated hereby, and to contribute, assign,
transfer and deliver the Contribution Property to be contributed by such Stockholder hereunder;
this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Stockholder.
3.2. Title to Contribution Property. Such Stockholder has good and valid title to the
Contribution Property to be contributed at the Closing by such Stockholder hereunder; and, upon
delivery of the certificates or other documents representing the Contribution Property and the
issuance of the Shares in exchange therefor as provided in this Agreement, good and valid title to
such Contribution Property, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, equities or adverse claims,
will pass to the Company.
3.3. Acquisition for Own Account. The Shares to be acquired by such Stockholder hereunder
will be acquired for investment for such Stockholder’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and
not with a view to the public resale or distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and such Stockholder has no present intention of
selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same.
3.4. No Solicitation . At no time was the Stockholder presented with or solicited by any
publicly issued or circulated newspaper, mail, radio, television or other form of general
advertising or solicitation in connection with the offer, sale and purchase of the Shares.
3.5. Investment Experience . Such Stockholder understands that the acquisition of the
Shares involves substantial risk. Such Stockholder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning
of Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Act and: (i) has experience as an investor in
securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that such Stockholder is able to
fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of such Stockholder’s investment in the Shares and has
such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that such Stockholder is capable of
evaluating the merits and risks of this investment in the Shares and protecting its own interests
in connection with this investment and/or (ii) has a preexisting personal or business relationship
with the Company and certain of its officers, directors or controlling persons of a nature and
duration that enables such Stockholder to be aware of the character, business acumen and financial
circumstances of such persons.
3
3.6. Restricted Securities . Such Stockholder understands that the Shares are
characterized as “restricted securities” under the 1933 Act inasmuch as they are being acquired
from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under the 1933 Act and
applicable regulations thereunder such securities may be resold without registration under the 1933
Act only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, such Stockholder represents that
such Stockholder is familiar with Rule 144 of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“SEC”), as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and
by the 1933 Act. Such Stockholder understands that the Company is under no obligation to register
any of the securities sold hereunder, except as set forth in the Investors’ Rights Agreement (as
defined in the Purchase Agreement). Such Stockholder understands that no public market now exists
for any of the Shares and that it is uncertain whether a public market will ever exist for the
Shares.
3.7. Legends . It is understood that the certificates evidencing the Shares and the
shares of common stock of the Company issued upon conversion thereof, if any, may bear the legends
set forth below:
“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE
SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE
REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE
COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.”
(b) Any legend set forth in the Investors’ Rights Agreement (as defined in the Purchase
Agreement).
(c) Any legend required by the Blue Sky laws of any state to the extent such laws are
applicable to the shares represented by the certificate so legended.
