Notice of Exercise
ACTIVANT GROUP INC.
2006 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
OPTION AGREEMENT
Pursuant
to your Stock Option Grant Notice (“ Grant Notice
”) and this Option Agreement, Activant Group Inc. (the
“ Company ”) has granted you a stock option
under its 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the “ Plan
” ) to purchase the number of shares of the Company’s
Common Stock indicated in your Grant Notice at the exercise price
indicated in your Grant Notice. Defined terms not defined in this
Option Agreement but defined in the Plan shall have the same
definitions as in the Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms
and conditions of the Grant Notice are a part of the Option
Agreement, unless otherwise specified.
The
details and terms and conditions of this Option Agreement shall
govern your Option, notwithstanding any less favorable terms and
conditions on the same matter set forth in the Plan:
1. Vesting.
(a) Subject to the limitations contained herein, your Option
will vest as provided in your Grant Notice, provided that vesting
will cease upon the termination of your Continuous Service.
(b) Notwithstanding any provision of this Option Agreement
to the contrary, in the event of the consummation of a Change in
Control of the Company, the Option shall, to the extent not then
vested and not previously cancelled or terminated, accelerate and
immediately become fully vested and exercisable.
2. Number of Shares and Exercise Price . The number
of shares of Common Stock subject to your Option and your exercise
price per share referenced in your Grant Notice may be adjusted
from time to time for various adjustments in the Company’s
equity capital structure, as provided in the Plan.
3. Method of Payment .
(a) Payment of the exercise price is due in full upon
exercise of all or any part of your Option. You may elect to make
payment of the exercise price in cash or by check. Alternatively,
in the Company’s sole discretion at the time your Option is
exercised and provided that at the time of exercise the Common
Stock is publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street
Journal , pursuant to a program developed under
Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board that,
prior to the issuance of Common Stock, results in either the
receipt of cash (or check) by the Company or the receipt of
irrevocable instructions to pay the aggregate exercise price to the
Company from the sales proceeds. Notwithstanding the terms of the
previous sentence, you may not be permitted to exercise your Option
pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as
promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board if such exercise would
violate the provisions of Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002.
(b) The Company may permit you to make payment of the
exercise price, in whole or in part, in shares of Common Stock
having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of the aggregate
exercise price or such portion thereof, as applicable;
provided , however , that you must satisfy all such
requirements as may be imposed by the Board including without
limitation that you have held such shares for not less than six
months (or such other period as established from time to time by
the Board in order to avoid a supplemental charge to earnings for
financial accounting purposes).
(c) Where you are permitted to pay the exercise price of an
Option and/or taxes relating to the exercise of an Option by
delivering shares of Common Stock, you may, subject to procedures
satisfactory to the Board, satisfy such delivery requirement by
presenting proof that you are the Beneficial Owner of such shares
of Common Stock, in which case the Company shall treat the Option
as exercised without further payment and shall withhold such number
of shares from the Shares acquired by the exercise of the
Option.
4. Whole Shares . You may exercise your Option only
for whole shares of Common Stock.
5. Securities Law Compliance . Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, you may not exercise
your Option unless the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such
exercise are then registered under the Securities Act or, if such
shares of Common Stock are not then so registered, the Company has
determined that such exercise and issuance would be exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act. The exercise of
your Option must also comply with other Applicable Laws governing
your Option, and you may not exercise your Option if the Company
determines that such exercise would not be in material compliance
with Applicable Law.
6. Term . You may not exercise your Option before the
commencement of its term on the Date of Grant or after its term
expires. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and this Option
Agreement, you may exercise all or any part of the vested portion
of the Option at any time prior to the earliest to occur of:
(a) the date on which your Continuous Service is terminated
for Cause;
(b) three (3) months after the termination of your
Continuous Service other than a termination for Cause or by reason
of your death or Disability;
(c) twelve (12) months after the termination of your
Continuous Service due to your Disability or death; or
(d) the Expiration Date.
(e) Extension if Exercise is Prevented .
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the exercise of your Option is
prevented within the applicable time periods set forth in Sections
6(b) or (c) as a result of the operation of Section 5
above, or Section 6(h) or Section 13 of the Plan, your Option
shall not expire before the date that is thirty (30) days
2
after the date
that you are notified by the Company that the Option is again
exercisable, but in any event no later than the Expiration Date
indicated in your Grant Notice.
7. Exercise Procedures.
(a) Subject to Section 5 above and other relevant terms
and conditions of the Plan and this Option Agreement, you may
exercise the vested portion of your Option during its term by
delivering a Notice of Exercise (in a form designated by the
Company) together with the exercise price to the Company’s
Chief Financial Officer, or to such other person as the Company may
designate, during regular business hours, together with such
additional documents as the Company may then reasonably
require.
(b) By exercising your Option, you agree that, as a
condition to any exercise of your Option, the Company may require
you to enter into an arrangement providing for the payment by you
to the Company of any tax withholding obligation of the Company
arising by reason of (1) the exercise of your Option, or
(2) other applicable events.
(c) By exercising your Option, you agree that the Company
(or a representative of the underwriter(s)) may, in connection with
the first underwritten registration of the offering of any equity
securities of the Company under the Securities Act (or any
underwritten registration of any securities of the Company prior to
that time), or as otherwise required pursuant to the terms of the
Applicable Stockholders Agreement, require that for a specified
period of time, you not sell, dispose of, transfer, make any short
sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any
hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a
sale, any shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company
held by you, or may impose such other restrictions on transfer to
the same extent as the Initial Investors. You further agree to
execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably
requested by the Company and/or the underwriter(s) that are
consistent with the foregoing or that are necessary to give further
effect thereto. In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the
Company may impose stop transfer instructions with respect to your
shares of Common Stock until the end of such period. The
underwriters of the Company’s stock are intended third party
beneficiaries of this Section 7(c) and shall have the right, power
and authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were
a party hereto.
(d) As a condition of any exercise of your Option, you and
your spouse, if any, agree that prior to the effectiveness of the
first underwritten registration of the Company’s equity
securities under the Securities Act, you shall not transfer any or
all of the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of your
Option unless pursuant to the terms of the Applicable Stockholders
Agreement.
8. Documents Governing Issued Common Stock . Shares
of Common Stock that you acquire upon exercise of your Option are
subject to the terms of the Plan, the Applicable Stockholders
Agreement, the Company’s bylaws, the Company’s
certificate of incorporation, any agreement relating to such shares
of Common Stock to which you become a party, or any
3
other
similar document. You should ensure that you understand your rights
and obligations as a stockholder of the Company prior to the time
that you exercise your Option.
9. Limitations on Transfer of Options . You may
transfer all or any portion of your vested Option to a trust or
custodianship, the beneficiaries of which may include only you,
your spouse or your lineal descendants (including children by
adoption and step children) (an “ Eligible Transferee
”); provided that such Eligible Transferee shall have
executed a transfer agreement in a form determined by the Company
to ensure such Eligible Transferee is subject to the same
restrictions on that portion of the Option transferred to such
Eligible Transferee as if the transfer had not occurred.
10. Option Not a Service Contract . Your Option is
not an employment contract, and nothing in your Option shall be
deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on your part
to continue in the employ or service of the Company or any of its
Affiliates, or of the Company or any of its Affiliates to continue
your employment. In addition, nothing in your Option shall obligate
the Company or any of its Affiliates, their respective
stockholders, boards of directors, officers or employees to
continue any relationship that you might have as a Director or
Consultant or otherwise for the Company or any of its
Affiliates.
11. Withholding Obligations.
(a) At the time you exercise your Option, in whole or in
part, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you
hereby authorize withholding from payroll and any other amounts
payable to you, and otherwise agree to make adequate provision for
(including by means of a “same day sale” program
developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal
Reserve Board to the extent permitted by the Company and Applicable
Law, including, but not limited to, Section 402 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002) any sums required to s
