KONTRON EMBEDDED COMPUTERS AG
OPTION TO PURCHASE
60,000 BEARER SHARES
WITHOUT PAR VALUE
This Option is issued for value received, in consideration of the execution
and delivery of that certain Purchase and Option Agreement, dated as of June 29,
2000 (the "FWRX Agreement") by and among, Fieldworks, Incorporated, a Minnesota
corporation ("Fieldworks"), FWRKS Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned susidiary of
Kontron Embedded Computers AG, the issuer of this Option, Industrial-Works
Holding Co., LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Purchaser"). Purchaser
for such consideration and its successors or permitted assigns ("Holder"), is
entitled to purchase from Kontron Embedded Computers AG, a German corporation
(the "Company"), 60,000 fully paid and nonassessable no par bearer shares of the
Company (the "Kontron Shares"; the "Company Stock"), in exchange for 2,428,600
shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of Fieldworks and 285,700 shares
of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock of Fieldworks held by the Purchaser,
which preferred shares are currently convertible into an aggregate of 3,000,000
shares of common stock of Fieldworks (collectively, the "Fieldworks Shares"; the
"Exercise Price").
This Option may be exercised only with respect to all 60,000 Kontron
Shares, and only in connection with the closing of the share purchase
transactions contemplated by the FWRX Agreement after the exercise of the "First
Option" under the FWRX Agreement. This Option may be exercised on or before
October 2, 2000 by the Holder at any time following the receipt by Fieldworks of
notice that the Company intends to exercise its rights to the First Option under
the FWRX Agreement; however, receipt of such notice by Fieldworks creates no
obligation on the part of the Holder to exercise this Option. If the
transactions contemplated by the FWRX Agreement fail to close on or before
November 15, 2000, or if this Option is not exercised on or prior to the Closing
Date of such transactions (as defined in the FWRX Agreement)(the "Closing
Date"), this Option shall expire and shall be null and void.
This Option is subject to the following terms and conditions:
1. Notice of Exercise. If the Holder elects to exercise its rights under
------------------
this Option, the Holder shall provide notice to the Company on or prior to
October 2, 2000 of its irrevocable intent to exercise this Option in accordance
with the procedures described below (the "Notice"). Once given, the Notice shall
be irrevocable, and, subject to Section 9, shall create a binding obligation
upon the Holder to transfer the Fieldworks Shares to the Company, and upon the
Company to issue the Kontron Shares to the Holder in
exchange for the Fieldworks Shares. Upon giving Notice to the Company, the
Holder may not take any action to transfer, pledge, or otherwise encumber or
dispose of, the Fieldworks Shares subject to the notice except in connection
with this Option, unless the transactions contemplated hereby fail to close.
2. Exercise. Following delivery of the Notice, the rights represented
--------
by this Option shall be exercised by the Holder, for the full number of the
Kontron Shares only, by delivery to the Company (or its designated
representative) on the Closing Date of payment to the Company in the form of one
or more stock certificates representing the Fieldworks Shares, with stock powers
properly endorsed and signatures guaranteed, in full payment of the Exercise
Price for the Kontron Shares. The Kontron Shares shall be deemed to be issued as
of the close of business on the Closing Date. Certificates for the Kontron
Shares shall be delivered to Holder on the later of the Closing Date and the
time Holder delivers the certificates representing the Exercise Price. If not
delivered within such time, such certificates shall at Holder's option be
replaced by cash having a value equal to the greatest value of the Kontron
Shares in the period from the Closing Date to three days after the Closing Date.
Holder may, in lieu thereof, require specific performance of Kontron's
obligation to delivery Kontron Shares.
3. Opinion of Counsel. In connection with the exercise of this
------------------
Option, on the Closing Date, (i) the Holder shall deliver to the Company an
opinion of Paul, Hastings, Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxx LLP, counsel for the Holder,
covering the matters described on Exhibit 1; and (ii) the Company shall deliver
to the Holder an opinion of counsel to the Company, covering the matters
described on Exhibit 2, in each case reasonably satisfactory to the recipient.
4. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company
---------------------------------------------
represents and warrants to Purchaser as follows:
(a) Corporate Organization. The Company is a corporation duly
----------------------
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the Republic
of Germany, and has all requisite corporate power and authority to own, operate
and lease its properties and to carry on its business as and in the places where
such properties are now owned, operated and leased or such business is now being
conducted.
(b) Authorization. The Company has the necessary corporate power
-------------
and authority to enter into this Agreement and to assume and perform its
obligations hereunder. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the
performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder have been duly
authorized by the Supervisory Board of the Company. This Agreement has been duly
executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a legal, valid and binding
obligation of the Company enforceable against it in accordance with its terms,
except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
-2-
other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally or by the principles
governing the availability of equitable remedies.
(c) Transferability of Shares. The Company does not believe that the
-------------------------
Kontron Shares will be subject to any restrictions on transferability by the
applicable securities laws of Germany upon issuance to the Holder. However, to
the extent that the transferability of the Kontron Shares is restricted by the
applicable securities laws of Germany, the Company shall cause such restrictions
to be removed prior to February 2001, and the Kontron Shares shall be freely
transferable on the Neuer Markt of the Frankfurter Wertpapierborse by the Holder
at that time.
5. Shares. All Kontron Shares issuable upon the exercise of the
------
rights represented by this Option shall, upon issuance, be duly authorized and
issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares. From the date this Option is issued
through the date the Option is exercised by the Holder or expires as described
above, the Company shall at all times have authorized and reserved for the
purpose of issue or transfer upon exercise of the rights evidenced by this
Option a sufficient number of shares of Company Stock to provide for the
exercise of the rights represented by this Option.
6. Adjustment. The Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from
----------
time to time as hereinafter provided in this Section 6:
(a) If the Company at any time after the date of this Option divides
the outstanding shares of Company Stock into a greater number of shares (whether
pursuant to a stock split, stock dividend or otherwise), and conversely, if the
outstanding shares of Company Stock are combined into a smaller number of
shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such division or
combination shall be proportionately adjusted to reflect the reduction or
increase in the value of each such share of Company Stock
(b) If any stock dividend , capital reorganization or
reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or consolidation or merger
of the Company with another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all
of its assets to another corporation shall be effected in such a way that
holders of the Company Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities or
assets with respect to or in exchange for such common stock, then, as a
condition of such stock dividend, reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation, merger or sale, Holder shall have the right to purchase and
receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in this
Option and in lieu of the Kontron Shares immediately theretofore purchasable and
receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby, such shares of
stock, other securities or assets as would have been issued or delivered to the
Holder if Holder had exercised this Option and had received the Kontron Shares
immediately prior to such stock dividend, reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation, merger or sale. The Company shall not effect any such
consolidation, merger or sale unless prior to the consummation thereof the
successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such
consolidation or merger or the corporation purchasing such assets shall assume
by written instrument executed and mailed to Holder at the last address of
Holder appearing on the books of the
-3-
Company the obligation to deliver to Holder such shares of stock, securities or
assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, Holder may be entitled
to purchase.
(c) Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price, Holder shall
thereafter be entitled to purchase, at the Exercise Price resulting from such
adjustment, the number of shares of Company Stock obtained by multiplying the
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of
Kontron Shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment
and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such
adjustment.
(d) Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price in accordance with the
foregoing, the Company shall give written notice thereof to Holder, and Company
and Holder shall determine the adjusted number of shares of Company Stock that
Holder will then be entitled to purchase pursuant to this Option.
7. No Rights as Shareholder. This Option does not entitle Holder to any
------------------------
voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company.
8. Transfer. This Option and all rights hereunder are transferable, in
--------
whole or in part, by the holder hereof in person or by the holder's duly
authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Option properly endorsed to any
person or entity who represents in writing that it is a Permitted Transferee who
is acquiring the Option for investment and without any view to the sale or other
distribution thereof and who is simultaneously acquiring sufficient shares of
Series B and Series C Convertible Preferred Stock of Fieldworks to exercise this
Option. Each holder of this Option, by taking or holding the same, consents and
agrees that the bearer of this Option, when endorsed, may be treated by the
Company and all other persons dealing with this Option as the absolute owner
hereof for any purpose and as the person entitled to exercise the rights
represented by this Option, or to the transfer hereof on the books of the
Company, any notice to the contrary notwithstanding; but until such transfer on
such books, the Company may treat the registered owner hereof as the owner for
all purposes. For purposes of this Agreement, "Permitted Transferee" shall mean
(a) any corporation, partnership or limited liability company all of the
outstanding securities and other interests of which are owned by the Purchaser,
or (b) any person or entity that directly or indirectly, through one or more
intermediaries, controls or is controlled by, or is under common control with
the Purchaser.
9. Conditions to Closing. Closing of the transactions contemplated by this
---------------------
Option is subject to the following conditions:
(a) Fieldworks shall have obtained from its shareholders all approvals
necessary to permit the Fieldworks Shares to be transferred to the Company
pursuant to this Option, and to the extent required, to permit the securities
issued to the Company pursuant to the FWRX Agreement to be voted by the Company,
and to be free from restrictions on transfer, in accordance with Section
302A.671 of the Minnesota Business Corporation Act;
-4-
(b) the Company and Fieldworks shall have received notice of the
termination of all waiting periods required, if any, pursuant to the Xxxx-Xxxxx-
Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 0000 (xxx "XXX Xxx"), in connection with
the transactions contemplated by FWRX Agreement and this Option ;
(c) The Company shall have received a satisfactory valuation with respect
to the exchange ratio of the Fieldworks Shares for the Kontron Shares in
accordance with the provisions of Section 183 of the Stock Corporation Act of
Germany; and
(d) The transactions contemplated by the FWRX Agreement, including the
purchase of capital stock of Fieldworks pursuant to the FWRX Agreement, shall
close simultaneously with those contemplated hereby and all conditions to such
closings shall have been satisfied or waived by the parties entitled to waive
them.
10. Transferability of Shares. The Company does not believe that the Kontron
-------------------------
Shares will be subject to any restrictions on transferability upon issuance to
the Holder. However, to the extent that the transferability of the Shares is
restricted by the applicable securities laws of Germany, the Company shall cause
such restrictions to be removed prior to February 2001, and the Kontron Shares
shall be freely transferable on the Neuer Markt of the Frankfurter
Wertpapierborse by the Holder at that time.
