FORM OF

TRANSFER AGREEMENT

 

THIS TRANSFER AGREEMENT, dated as of November 18, 2005 (this “Agreement”), is between Vector Capital III, L.P.  (the “Seller”), Pehong Chen (the “Buyer”) and BroadVision, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”).

 

WHEREAS, on November 9, 2005, the Seller acquired the entire rights, title and interest in, to and under those certain Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible Notes of the Issuer of an aggregate principal amount of $12,799,999 (the “Note”); and,

 

WHEREAS, the Seller desires to sell and assign to the Buyer, and the Buyer desires to purchase from the Seller, the Seller’s entire rights, title and interest in, to and under the Note (such sale, assignment and purchase, the “Transaction”).

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.             Pursuant to the terms hereof, the Seller hereby sells, transfers, assigns, delegates and conveys unto the Buyer’s assignee, Honu Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company wholly owned by the Buyer (“Holdings”), without recourse, any and all rights, title, interests, duties and obligations to the Note, including, without limitation, all rights, title, interests, duties and obligations arising out of or incurred in connection with such assets, for an aggregate purchase price equal to the sum of (i) $15,359,999 (equal to 120% of the Principal to be assigned), and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest (including default interest) on such Principal equal to $120,526 as of November 21, 2005 and accruing at a rate of $2,104.11 per day for each day thereafter (the “Purchase Price”), payable no later than the close of business on the first business day after the date hereof. The Buyer, on behalf of himself and Holdings, hereby accepts the foregoing assignment and delegation, accepts the Note and assumes all of the Seller’s rights, title, interests, duties and obligations (whether arising before or after execution of this Agreement) with respect to the Note. Each of the Buyer and the Seller shall take all necessary actions to consummate the sale and transfers contemplated hereunder and to vest legal title to the Note in Holdings, including (a) complying with the requirements of Section 2(f) of the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 10, 2004, by and among the Issuer, the Seller and certain other parties (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), and (b) surrendering the Note to the Issuer and requesting that the Issuer issue and deliver a replacement Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible Note of the Issuer in the name of Holdings in accordance with the procedures described in Section 19 of the Note.

 

2.             Each of the Buyer and the Seller has, or may have obtained, material non-public information concerning the Issuer and the Note (“Excluded Information”) and is precluded from sharing any such Excluded Information with the other party. In connection therewith, the Buyer and the Seller each acknowledge, understand and agree, as follows: (a) the Buyer has requested that the Seller not disclose to it any of the Seller’s Excluded Information, and the Seller has

As a consequence of such non-disclosure of each party’s Excluded Information, there may exist a disparity of information between the Buyer and the Seller with respect to the Note and/or the Issuer. Each of the Buyer and the Seller acknowledges that if it had been informed of the other party’s Excluded Information, the Note may have a lesser or greater value than the Purchase Price. Each of the Buyer and the Seller acknowledges it may not be in such party’s best interest to proceed with the Transaction at this time.

 

3.             As a condition to the Buyer’s agreement to buy, and the Seller’s agreement to sell, the Note: (a) the Buyer, on behalf of himself and Holdings, expressly releases the Seller from any and all liabilities arising from the Seller’s failure to disclose the Seller’s Excluded Information, or the Buyer’s inability to review the Seller’s Excluded Information, and (b) the Seller expressly releases the Buyer and Holdings from any and all liabilities arising from the Buyer’s failure to disclose the Buyer’s Excluded Information, or the Seller’s inability to review the Buyer’s Excluded Information, provided, however, in either case, that the Seller’s Excluded Information shall not and does not affect the truth or accuracy of the Seller’s representations and warranties made herein and the Buyer’s Excluded Information shall not and does not affect the truth or accuracy of the Buyer’s representations and warranties made herein.

 

4.             The Buyer represents, warrants and acknowledges, as applicable, that each of the Buyer and Holdings: (a) is a sophisticated purchaser with respect to the Note, (b) has adequate information concerning the Note, (c) has adequate information concerning the business and financial condition of the Issuer and any affiliates of the Issuer, (d) has conducted, to the extent he or it deemed necessary, an independent investigation of such matters as, in his or its judgment, is necessary for it to make an informed investment decision with respect to the Note, the Issuer and the Transaction, (e) has not relied upon the Seller for any investigation into, assessment of, or evaluation with respect to the Note, the Issuer and/or the Transaction, (f) is buying the Note as principal, for his or its own account and not as a broker or agent for another party, and for investment purposes only, and not with a view toward distribution or resale, and (g) is an accredited investor, as defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

5.             The Seller represents, warrants and acknowledges, as applicable, that it: (a) is a sophisticated seller with respect to the Note, (b) has adequate information concerning the Note, (c) has adequate information concerning the business and financial condition of the Issuer and any affiliates of the Issuer, (d) has conducted, to the extent it deemed necessary, an independent investigation of such matters as, in its judgment, is necessary for it to make an informed investment decision with respect to the Note, the Issuer and the Transaction, (e) has not relied upon the Buyer or Holdings for any investigation into, assessment of, or evaluation with respect to the Note, the Issuer and/or the Transaction, (f) acquired the Note as principal, for its own account and not as a broker or agent for another party, and for investment purposes only and not with a view toward distribution or resale, (g) holds good and valid legal title to the Note free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances, and (h) has not engaged in any form of general solicitation or advertising in connection with the sale of the Note.

6.             Notwithstanding anything in this Transfer Agreement, the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Note or the Noteholders Agreement dated as of October 21, 2005, between the Issuer and certain other parties thereto (collectively, the “Notes Documents”) to the contrary, the Buyer agrees that he shall not deliver to the Issuer any Event of Default Redemption Notice for any reason or exercise any other remedies under the Notes Documents from and after the date hereof until the second business day after the Expense Reimbursement (as defined in the Mutual Termination Agreement referred to below) (including interest, fees, expenses, charges or other amounts accruing on or after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or for reorganization at the rate or in the amount otherwise applicable thereto, whether or not any such interest, fees, expenses, charges or other amount is an allowed claim, the “Termination Payment”) is paid in full in cash to Bravo Holdco, an exempted company with limited liability incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and affiliate of Vector III, pursuant to that certain Mutual Termination Agreement entered into by and among the Issuer, Bravo Holdco, and Bravo Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Bravo Holdco, dated as of the date hereof (the “Mutual Termination Agreement”).

 

7.             Notwithstanding anything in the Notes Documents to the contrary, each of the Buyer, the Seller and the Issuer agree that from and after the date hereof and until two business days after the Termination Payment is paid in full in cash (the “Expiration Date”): (a) the Buyer agrees to defer, and hereby gives notice to the Issuer of his election to defer, all principal and interest and any other fees, payments or penalties that are due or become due under the Note from and after the date hereof until the Expiration Date; and (b) the Issuer agrees not to pay any principal, interest or any other fees, payments or penalties that are due under the Note or become due from and after the date hereof until the Expiration Date.

 

8.             The Buyer further covenants and agrees that the Issuer’s obligations to make any payments under the Note, including principal, interest or any other fees, payments or penalties (the “Subordinated Payments”) are hereby expressly made subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the Termination Payment in cash, all to the extent and in the manner provided in the Mutual Termination Agreement. The Issuer shall not make any Subordinated Payments until the Expiration Date.  Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Issuer of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or other property, to creditors of the Issuer in a bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors, marshalling of assets or similar proceeding of or relating to the Issuer or its property, assets or creditors, the Seller shall be entitled to receive payment in full, in cash, of the Termination Payment before the Buyer shall be entitled to receive any payment of principal or interest or any other payment or distribution of assets with respect to any Subordinated Payments, and until the Termination Payment is paid in full as provided herein, any payment or distribution of assets of the Issuer of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or property, to which the Buyer would be entitled but for the subordination provisions in this Agreement shall be made by the Issuer or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making such payment or distribution directly to the Seller to the extent necessary to pay the Termination Payment in full in cash.  In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, the Issuer shall make any Subordinated Payment to the Buyer not expressly authorized under the terms hereof, such Subordinated Payment shall be held in trust by the Buyer for the benefit of the Seller and shall be paid over immediately (without necessity of demand) to the Seller, for

 

3



 

application to the payment of the Termination Payment until the same shall have been paid in full in cash.

 

9.             The Buyer agrees that each of the representations, covenants and agreements of the Buyer herein (including without limitation the prohibitions and limitations set forth in Sections 6, 7 and 8 hereof) shall also be deemed to be a representation, covenant and agreement of Holdings as if originally made by Holdings herein and that any breach thereof by Holdings shall be deemed to be a breach thereof by the Buyer. The Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller against any breach by Holdings of any such representation, covenant or agreement.
