NOW,
THEREFORE, THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
1. Registration
Rights. The Company covenants and agrees as follows:

Definitions. For purposes of this Section 1:
(a) The
term “Act” means the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
(b) The
term “Form S-3” means such form under the Act as in effect on
the date hereof and as may be amended from time to time, or any similar
successor registration form under the Act subsequently adopted by the SEC that
permits inclusion or incorporation of substantial information by reference to
other documents filed by the Company with the SEC.

acquire Registrable Securities or any assignee thereof in accordance with Section 1.11
hereof.

amended.
(f) The
term “register,” “registered,” and
“registration” refer to a registration effected by preparing and
filing a registration statement or similar document in compliance with the Act
and applicable rules and regulations thereunder, and the declaration or
ordering of effectiveness of such registration statement or document.
(g) The
term “Registrable Securities” means (i) the Common Stock
issuable or issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock,
Series E Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock held by the
Holders and (ii) any Common Stock of the Company issued as (or issuable
upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security that is
issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange
for, or in replacement of, the shares referenced in (i) above, excluding
in all cases, however, any Registrable Securities sold by a person in a
transaction in which his rights under this Section 1 are not assigned in
accordance with Section 1.11 hereof.
(h) The
number of shares of “Registrable Securities” outstanding shall be
determined by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding that are, and
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to then exercisable or
convertible securities that are, Registrable Securities.
(i) The
term “SEC” shall mean the Securities and Exchange Commission or any
other federal agency at the time administering the Act.
1.2
Request for Registration.
(a) Subject
to the conditions of this Section 1.2, if the Company shall receive at any
time after the earlier of (i) three (3) years after the date of this
Agreement or (ii) six (6) months after the effective date of the
Initial Offering, a written request from any Holder or Holders who in the
aggregate hold forty percent (40%) or more of the Registrable Securities then
outstanding (the “Initiating Holders”) that the Company file a
registration statement under the Act covering the registration of Registrable
Securities with an anticipated aggregate offering price of at least $7,500,000,
then the Company shall, within twenty (20) days of the receipt thereof,
give written notice of such request to all Holders, and subject to the
limitations of this Section 1.2, use its best efforts to effect, as soon
as practicable, the registration under the Act (including, without limitation,
filing post-effective amendments, appropriate qualifications under applicable
blue sky or other state securities laws, and appropriate compliance with the
Act) and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all
Registrable Securities that the Holders request to be registered in a written
request received by the Company within twenty (20) days of the mailing of
the Company’s notice pursuant to this Section 1.2(a).
(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 1.2 and the
Company shall
2
include such information in
the written notice referred to in Section 1.2(a). 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 through such underwriting shall enter into an
underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters
selected for such underwriting by the Initiating Holders (which underwriter or
underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company). Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Section 1.2, if the underwriter advises the
Company that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of securities
underwritten (including Registrable Securities), then the Company shall so
advise all Holders of Registrable Securities that 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); provided, however,
that the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in such
underwriting and registration shall not be reduced unless all other securities
of the Company are first entirely excluded from the underwriting and
registration. 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 1.2:
(i) in
any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a
general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, unless
the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as
may be required under the Act; or
(ii) after
the Company has effected three (3) registrations pursuant to this
Section 1.2, and such registrations have been declared or ordered
effective; or
(iii) during
the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the
Company’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on
a date one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective date of, a
Company-initiated registration subject to Section 1.3 below (other than a
registration relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a
Company stock plan, a registration relating to a corporate reorganization or
other transaction under Rule 145 of the Act, or a registration on any form that
does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be
included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable
Securities), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith its
best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; or
(iv) if
the Initiating Holders propose to dispose of Registrable Securities that may be
immediately registered on Form S-3 pursuant to a request made under
Section 1.4 hereof; or
(v) if
the Company shall furnish to Holders requesting a registration statement
pursuant to this Section 1.2, a certificate signed by the Company’s
Chief Executive Officer or Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith
judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously
detrimental to the Company and its
3
stockholders for such
registration statement to be effected at such time, in which event the Company
shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than one
hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of the request of the Initiating
Holders, provided that such right to delay a request shall be exercised by the
Company not more than once in any twelve (12)-month period.
1.3
Company Registration.
(a) If
(but without any obligation to do so) the Company proposes to register
(including for this purpose a registration effected by the Company for
stockholders other than the Holders) any of its stock or other securities under
the Act in connection with the public offering of such securities (other than a
registration relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a
Company stock plan, a registration relating to a corporate reorganization or
other transaction under Rule 145 of the Act, or a registration on any form
that does not include substantially the same information as would be required
to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable
Securities), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder written
notice of such registration. Upon the written request of each Holder given
within twenty (20) days after mailing of such notice by the Company in
accordance with Section 3.5, the Company shall, subject to the provisions
of Section 1.3(c), use its best efforts to cause to be registered under the
Act all of the Registrable Securities that each such Holder has requested to be
registered. Such written request by each Holder may specify all or a part of
that Holder’s Registrable Securities.
(b) Right
to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or
withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 1.3 prior to
the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has elected to
include securities in such registration. The expenses of such withdrawn registration
shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 1.7 hereof.
(c) Underwriting
Requirements. In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of
shares of the Company’s capital stock, the Company shall not be required
under this Section 1.3 to include any of the Holders’ securities in
such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed
upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it (or by other
persons entitled to select the underwriters) and enter into an underwriting
agreement in customary form with an underwriter or underwriters selected by the
Company, and then only in such quantity as the underwriters determine in their
sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company.
If the total amount of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested
by stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the amount of
securities sold other than by the Company that the underwriters determine in their
sole discretion is compatible with the success of the offering, then the
Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of
Registrable Securities, that the underwriters determine in their sole
discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the Registrable
Securities so included to be apportioned pro rata among the selling Holders
according to the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein
owned by each selling Holder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be
agreed to by such selling Holders), but in no event shall (i) the amount
of securities of the selling Holders included in the offering be reduced below
thirty-five percent (35%) of the total amount of securities included in such
offering, unless such offering is the Initial Offering of the Company’s
securities, in which case the selling Holders may be excluded if the
underwriters make the determination described
4
above and no other
stockholder’s securities are included, or (ii) notwithstanding
(i) above, any shares being sold by a Holder exercising a demand
registration right granted in Section 1.2 be excluded from such offering.
In no event will shares of any other selling stockholder be included in such
registration that would reduce the number of shares which may be included by
Holders without the written consent of Holders of not less than a majority of
the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the offering. For purposes of
the preceding parenthetical concerning apportionment, for any selling
stockholder that is a Holder of Registrable Securities and that is a
partnership or corporation, the partners, retired partners and stockholders of
such Holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired
partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons shall
be deemed to be a single “selling Holder,” and any pro rata
reduction with respect to such “selling Holder” shall be based upon
the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities owned by all such related
entities and individuals.
1.4
Form S-3 Registration. In case the Company shall receive from any
Holder or Holders who in the aggregate hold at least ten percent (10%) of the
Registrable Securities then outstanding a written request or requests that the
Company effect a registration on Form S-3 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 shall:
(a) promptly
give written notice of the proposed registration, and any related qualification
or compliance, to all other Holders; and
(b) use
its best efforts to effect, as soon as practicable, 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
Holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request,
together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other
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
1.4:
(i) if
Form S-3 is not available for such offering by the Holders; provided, however,
that after its Initial Offering the Company shall use its best efforts to
qualify for registration on Form S-3 in accordance with Section 1.10
below;
(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 (net of any underwriters’ discounts or commissions) of less than
$1,000,000;
(iii) if
the Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the Chief
Executive Officer or Chairman of the Board of the Company stating that in the
good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be
seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such Form S-3
Registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have
the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3 registration statement for a
period of not more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request of
the Holder or Holders under this Section 1.4; provided, however, that the Company
shall not utilize this right more than once in any twelve month period;
5
(iv) if
the Company has, within the twelve (12) month period preceding the date of
such request, already effected two registrations on Form S-3 for the Holders
pursuant to this Section 1.4; or
(v) 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 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.
Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 1.4 shall not be counted
as requests for registration effected pursuant to Sections 1.2.
1.5
Obligations of the Company. Whenever required under this Section 1
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 its best 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 a period of up to one hundred twenty (120) days or, if
earlier, until the distribution contemplated in the Registration Statement has
been completed; provided, however, that such 120-day period shall be extended
for a period of time equal to the period the Holder refrains from selling any
securities included in such registration at the request of the Company or an
underwriter;
(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 Act with respect to
the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement;
(c) furnish
to the Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary
prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Act, and such other
documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition
of Registrable Securities owned by them;
(d) use
its best 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 of such offering;
(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
6
under the Act or 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) cause
all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder to be listed on
each securities exchange or market on which similar securities issued by the
Company are then listed; and
(h) provide
a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered
pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in
each case not later than the effective date of such registration.
1.6
Information from Holder. It shall be a condition precedent to the
obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Section 1
with respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling Holder that such
Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the
Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of
such securities as shall be required to effect the registration of such
Holder’s Registrable Securities.
1.7
Expenses of Registration. All expenses, other than underwriting
discounts and commissions, incurred in connection with registrations, filings
or qualifications pursuant to Sections 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4, including
(without limitation) all registration, filing and qualification fees,
printers’ and accounting fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the
Company and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one special counsel for
the selling Holders, shall be borne by the Company. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any
registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 1.2 or Section 1.4
if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the
Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered (in which
case all participating Holders shall bear such expenses pro rata based upon the
number of Registrable Securities that were to be requested in the withdrawn registration);
provided, however, that if at the time of such withdrawal, the Holders have
learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects
of the Company from that known to the Holders at the time of their request and
have withdrawn the request with reasonable promptness following disclosure by
the Company of such material adverse change, then the Holders shall not be
required to pay any of such expenses.
1.8
Delay of Registration. 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 1.
1.9
Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in
a registration statement under this Section 1:
(a) To
the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each
Holder, the partners, members or officers, directors and stockholders of each
Holder, legal counsel and accountants for each Holder, any underwriter (as
defined in the Act) for such Holder and each person, if any, who controls such
Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Act or the 1934 Act (each an
“Indemnified Party” and collectively the “Indemnified
Parties”), against any expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities
(joint or
7
several) (or actions,
proceedings, or settlements in respect thereof) to which they may become
subject under the Act, the 1934 Act or any state securities laws, insofar as
such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions, proceedings, or
settlements in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the
following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a “Violation”):
(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 therein of 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 Act, the 1934 Act, any state securities laws or any rule or regulation
promulgated under the Act, the 1934 Act or any state securities laws; and the
Company will reimburse each such Indemnified Party for any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or
defending or settling any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action;
provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection
1.9(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 that occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by
any such Indemnified Party; provided further, however, that the foregoing
indemnity agreement with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure
to the benefit of any Holder or underwriter, or any person controlling such
Holder or underwriter, from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities purchased shares in the offering, if a copy of the
prospectus (as then amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished
any amendments or supplements thereto) was not sent or given by or on behalf of
such Holder or underwriter to such person, if required by law so to have been
delivered, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of the shares to
such person, and if the prospectus (as so amended or supplemented) would have
cured the defect giving rise to such loss, claim, damage or liability.
(b) To
the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will indemnify and hold
harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who has
signed the registration statement, each person, if any, who controls the
Company within the meaning of the Act, legal counsel and accountants for the
Company, any underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in such
registration statement and any controlling person of any such underwriter or
other Holder, against any expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities
(joint or several) (or actions, proceedings, or settlements in respect thereof)
to which any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under the Act, the
1934 Act or any state securities laws, insofar as such expenses, losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions, proceedings, or settlements 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 to the Company by such
Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such
Holder will reimburse any person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this
subsection 1.9(b), for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such
person in connection with investigating or defending or settling any such loss,
claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity
agreement contained in this subsection 1.9(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
8
unreasonably withheld),
provided that in no event shall any indemnity under this subsection 1.9(b)
exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.
(c) Promptly
after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 1.9 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 1.9, 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 (together with all other
indemnified parties that may be represented without conflict by one counsel)
shall have the right to retain one separate 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 prejudicial to its ability to defend
such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the
indemnified party under this Section 1.9, 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 1.9.
(d) If
the indemnification provided for in this Section 1.9 is held by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect
to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to herein, then the
indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder,
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a
result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense 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
statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or
expense, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative
fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be
determined 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
net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder.
(e) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and
contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection
with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing
provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control;
provided, however, that the failure of the underwriting agreement to address a
provision addressed in this Agreement shall not be such a conflict.
(f) The
obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 1.9 shall
survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a
registration statement under this Section 1, and otherwise.

1.10
Reports Under Securities Exchange Act of 1934. With a view to making
available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the
Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a
Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration or
pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the Company agrees to:
(a) make
and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and
defined in Rule 144, at all times after ninety (90) days after the
effective date of the Initial Offering;
(b) file
with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the
Company under the Act and the 1934 Act; and
(c) furnish
to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Securities, forthwith
upon request (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied
with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 (at any time after ninety
(90) days after the effective date of the first registration statement filed
by the Company), the Act and the 1934 Act (at any time after it has become
subject to such reporting requirements), or that it qualifies as a registrant
whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form S-3 (at any time after it so
qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of
the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and
(iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing
any Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any
such securities without registration or pursuant to such form.
1.11
Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to
register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 1 may be assigned
(but only with all related obligations) by a Holder to a transferee or assignee
of such securities that (i) is a subsidiary, affiliate, parent, partner,
limited partner, retired partner, member or retired member or stockholder of a
Holder, (ii) is a Holder’s family member or trust for the benefit of
an individual Holder, or (iii) acquires at least 50,000 shares of the
original purchaser’s Registrable Securities (or, if the transferring
holder owns less 50,000 shares, all of the transferring holder’s
securities), subject to appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock
dividends, combinations and other recapitalizations, provided: (a) the
Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with
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;
(b) such transferee or assignee agrees in writing to be bound by and
subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation
the provisions of Section 1.12 below; and (c) such assignment shall
be effective only if immediately following such transfer the further
disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted
under the Act.
1.12
“Market Stand-Off’ Agreement. In connection with the
Company’s Initial Offering and if requested by the Company or managing
underwriter of such offering, each Holder hereby agrees that it will not,
without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter, during the
period commencing on the date of the final prospectus relating to the
Company’s Initial Offering and ending on the date specified by the
Company and the managing underwriter (such period not to exceed one hundred
eighty (180) days) (i) lend, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell,
sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to
sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or
dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any securities
convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock (whether such
shares or any such securities are then owned by
10
the Holder or are thereafter
acquired except shares acquired in the public resale market), or
(ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another,
in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the
Common Stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or
(ii) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other
securities, in cash or otherwise; provided, however, that all executive
officers, directors and five-percent (5%) security holders of the Company enter
into similar agreements. The underwriters in connection with the
Company’s Initial Offering are intended third party beneficiaries of this
Section 1.12 and shall have the right, power and authority to enforce the
provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto.
In
order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop-transfer
instructions with respect to the Registrable Securities of each Holder (and the
shares or securities of every other person subject to the foregoing
restriction) until the end of such period.
1.13
Termination of Registration Rights. No Holder shall be entitled to
exercise any right provided for in this Section 1 after the earlier of
(i) five (5) years following the consummation of the Initial Offering
or (ii) as to any Holder, at such time as (A) all Registrable
Securities held by such Holder (and any affiliate of the Holder with whom such
Holder must aggregate its sales under Rule 144) can be sold in any three
(3)-month period without registration in compliance with Rule 144 of the
Act, (B) the Company has completed its Initial Offering, and
(C) such Holder holds Registrable Securities constituting less than two
percent (2%) of the outstanding voting stock of the Company.
1.14
Limitation on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date of
this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the
holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding, enter
into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of
the Company giving such holder or prospective holder any registration rights
the terms of which are more favorable than the registration rights granted to
the Holders hereunder.

Company, an unaudited income statement, statement of cash flows for such fiscal
quarter and an unaudited
11

of such fiscal quarter prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied
(except as noted therein), with the exception that no notes need be attached to
such statements and year-end audit adjustments may not have been made;
(c) within
thirty (30) days of the end of each month, an unaudited income statement
and statement of cash flows and balance sheet for and as of the end of such
month, in reasonable detail prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently
applied (except as noted therein), with the exception that no notes need be
attached to such statements and year-end audit adjustments may not have been
made;
(d) as
soon as practicable, but in any event at least thirty (30) days prior to
the end of each fiscal year, a budget for the next fiscal year, prepared on a

revised budgets prepared by the Company; and
(e) such
other information relating to the financial condition, business, prospects or
corporate affairs of the Company as the Investor or any assignee of the
Investor may from time to time request, provided, however, that the Company
shall not be obligated under this subsection (f) or any other subsection of
Section 2.1 to provide information that the Board of Directors of the
Company deems in good faith to be a trade secret or similar confidential
information.
2.2
Inspection. The Company shall permit each Investor that holds at least
(i) 200,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock or Series B
Preferred Stock; (ii) at least 25,000 shares of Series C Preferred

Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof and each as adjusted for any future
stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or the like), at such
Investor’s expense, to visit and inspect the Company’s properties,
to examine its books of account and records and to discuss the Company’s
affairs, finances and accounts with its officers, all at such reasonable times
as may be requested by the Investor, provided, however, that the Company shall
not be obligated pursuant to this Section 2.2 to provide access to any
information that it reasonably considers to be a trade secret or similar
confidential information.
2.3
True Books and Records. The Company will maintain true books and records
of account in which full and correct entries will be made of all its business
transactions pursuant to a system of accounting established and administered in
accordance with GAAP consistently applied (except as noted therein), and will

required under GAAP consistently applied.
2.4

keep available, solely for issuance and delivery upon the conversion of the
Preferred Stock, all Common Stock issuable from time to time upon such
conversion.

Company’s counsel or Board of Directors.
12
2.6

(6) months from the date of this Agreement, in the event the Company
elects not to exercise any right of first refusal or right of first offer the
Company may have on a proposed transfer of any of the Company’s
outstanding capital stock pursuant to the Company’s charter documents, by
contract or otherwise, the Company shall, to the extent it may do so, assign
such right of first refusal or right of first offer to Sutter Hill Ventures or
its affiliates. For a period of six (6) months from the date of this
Agreement, in the event that the Company becomes aware that any preferred
stockholder proposes to sell any of its shares of preferred stock during such
period, the Company will use its good faith commercial efforts to cause such
stockholder to offer Sutter Hill Ventures or its affiliates a right of first
offer in respect of such shares that such preferred stockholder proposes to
sell.
2.7
Directors’ Liability and Indemnification. The Company’s
Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws shall provide (a) for elimination
of the liability of director to the maximum extent permitted by law and
(b) for indemnification of directors for acts on behalf of the Company to
the maximum extent permitted by law.
2.8
Termination of Information Covenant. The covenants set forth in
Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6 shall terminate as to Investors and be
of no further force or effect when the sale of securities pursuant to a
registration statement filed by the Company under the Act in connection with
the firm commitment underwritten offering of its securities to the general
public is consummated.
2.9
Right of First Offer. Subject to the terms and conditions specified in
this paragraph 2.9, the Company hereby grants to each Major Investor (as
hereinafter defined) a right of first offer with respect to future sales by the
Company of its Shares (as hereinafter defined). For purposes of this
Section 2.4, a Major Investor shall mean any Investor or transferee that
holds (i) at least 200,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock or
Series B Preferred Stock; (ii) at least 25,000 shares of
Series C Preferred Stock; (iii) at least 280,899 shares of
Series D Preferred Stock; or (iv) 200,000 shares of Series F
Preferred Stock (or the Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof and each as
adjusted for any future stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or the
like). For purposes of this Section 2.4, Investor includes any general
partners and affiliates of an Investor. An Investor shall be entitled to
apportion the right of first offer hereby granted it among itself and its
partners and affiliates in such proportions as it deems appropriate.
Each
time the Company proposes to offer any shares of, or securities convertible
into or exchangeable or exercisable for any shares of, any class of its capital
stock (“Shares”), the Company shall first make an offering of such
Shares to each Major Investor in accordance with the following provisions.
(a) The
Company shall deliver a notice in accordance with Section 3.5
(“Notice”) to the Major Investors stating (i) its bona fide
intention to offer such Shares, (ii) the number of such Shares to be
offered, and (iii) the price and terms upon which it proposes to offer
such Shares.
(b) By
written notification received by the Company, within twenty (20) calendar
days after receipt of the Notice, each Major Investor may elect to purchase or
obtain, at the price and on the terms specified in the Notice, up to that
portion of such Shares that
13
equals the proportion that
the number of shares of Common Stock issued and held, or issuable upon
conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E
Preferred Stock or Series F Preferred Stock and any other securities of
the Company then held, by such Major Investor bears to the total number of
shares of Common Stock of the Company then outstanding (assuming full
conversion of all convertible securities). The Company shall promptly, in
writing, inform each Major Investor which purchases all the shares available to
it (a “Fully-Exercising Investor”) of any other Major
Investor’s failure to do likewise. During the ten (10) day period
commencing after the receipt of such information, each Fully-Exercising
Investor shall be entitled to obtain that portion of the Shares not subscribed
for by the Major Investors which is equal to the proportion that the number of
shares of common stock issued and held, or issuable upon conversion of the
Preferred Stock and any other securities of the Company then held, by such
Fully-Exercising Investor bears to the total number of shares of common stock
issued and held, or issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock then
held, by all Fully-Exercising Investors who wish to purchase some of the
unsubscribed shares.
(c) If
all Shares that Major Investors are entitled to obtain pursuant to subsection
2.4(b) are not elected to be obtained as provided in subsection 2.9(b) hereof,
the Company may, during the sixty (60) day period following the expiration
of the period provided in subsection 2.4(b) hereof, offer the remaining
unsubscribed portion of such Shares to any person or persons at a price not
less than, and upon terms no more favorable to the offeree than those specified
in the Notice. If the Company does not enter into an agreement for the sale of
the Shares within such period, or if such agreement is not consummated within
sixty (60) days of the execution thereof, the right provided hereunder
shall be deemed to be revived and such Shares shall not be offered unless first
reoffered to the Major Investors in accordance herewith.
(d) The
right of first offer in this paragraph 2.4 shall not be applicable to
(i) the issuance or sale of shares of capital stock to employees,
consultants, service providers, officers or directors of the Company pursuant
to stock purchase or stock option plans or agreements approved by the Board
(including options granted and outstanding prior to the Financing) (or such
higher number of shares approved by the Board, including at least one
representative of the Investors); (ii) the issuance of securities pursuant
to a bona fide, firmly underwritten public offering of shares of Common Stock
resulting in proceeds to the Company of at least $20,000,000 in the aggregate;
(iii) the issuance of securities pursuant to the conversion or exercise of
convertible or exercisable securities outstanding as of the date of this
Agreement; (iv) the issuance of securities in connection with a bona fide
business acquisition of or by the Company, whether by merger, consolidation,
sale of assets, sale or exchange of stock or otherwise approved by the Board of
Directors of the Company; (v) the issuance of securities to financial
institutions or lessors in connection with commercial credit arrangements,
equipment financing or similar transactions, in each case where the primary
purpose of such transaction is not equity financing approved by the Board of
Directors of the Company; (vi) the issuance of securities pursuant to
currently outstanding options, warrants, notes, or other rights to acquire
securities of the Company; (vii) stock splits, stock dividends or like
transactions; (viii) shares of Common Stock or convertible securities
issued pursuant to any OEM, technology license, marketing, or strategic
partnership agreements approved by the Board of Directors; or (ix) the
issuance and sale of Series F Preferred Stock pursuant to the
Series F Agreement (and the common stock issuable upon conversion of the
Series F Preferred Stock).
14
2.10
Termination of Certain Covenants. The covenants set forth in
Section 2.9 shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the
earlier of (i) the consummation of the sale of securities pursuant to a
bona fide, firmly underwritten public offering of shares of Common Stock, or
(ii) the acquisition of the Company by another entity by means of any transaction
or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, any
reorganization, merger or consolidation) that results in the transfer of fifty
percent (50%) or more of the outstanding voting power of the Company.
2.11
Vesting Schedule for Employee Stock. Unless otherwise approved by the
Board, all stock and option grants to employees of the Company shall vest with
respect to 25% of the shares after 12 months of service, and the balance
in equal monthly installments over the next 36 months of service.

agreement among the parties with regard to the subjects hereof and thereof. Any

Agreement 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 a majority of the Registrable Securities then
outstanding. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this paragraph
shall be binding upon each holder of any Registrable Securities, each future
holder of all such Registrable Securities, and the Company.

thereof pursuant to the terms of the Series F Agreement) to which such
existing Investor and all other Investors may be entitled pursuant to
Section 2.4 of the Prior Agreement. Such waiver shall be binding upon all
parties to the Prior Agreement.
