6.2 Indemnification for Vicarious Liability.

(a) Without limitation of any other provision of this Agreement, the Company agrees to defend, indemnify and hold the Investors who may be deemed to control the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, their affiliates and their respective direct and indirect partners, members, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties” and each individually, an “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, obligations, liens, assessments, judgments, fines, liabilities and other costs and expenses, including, without limitation, interest, penalties and any investigation, legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted, as the same are actually incurred by the Indemnified Parties, of any kind or nature whatsoever (collectively “Losses”) which may be sustained or suffered by any such Indemnified Party, in their capacity as or as a result of any action taken or omitted to be taken by them as a director, stockholder, representative or controlling person of the Company, without regard to any investigation by any of the Indemnified Parties, based upon, arising out of, by reason of or otherwise in respect of or in connection with third party or governmental claims under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise (“Laws”), including, without limitation, any third party or governmental claim alleging so-called control person liability or securities law liability; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable to the extent that such Loss arises from and is based on (A) an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission in a registration statement or prospectus which is made in reliance on and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company in an instrument duly executed by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation thereof, (B) a knowing and willful violation of any Law or Laws by an Indemnified Party, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or (C) a fraudulent act or omission by the Indemnified Party as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(b) If the indemnification provided for in Section 6.2(a) above for any reason (other than for any reason specified in items (A), (B), and (C) of the proviso in Section 6.2(a)) is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses referred to therein, then the Company, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Indemnified Parties, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Indemnified Parties in connection with the action or inaction which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. In connection with any registration of the Company’s securities, the relative benefits received by the Company and the Indemnified Parties shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions that the net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the Indemnified Parties, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the applicable prospectus, bear to the aggregate public offering price of the securities so offered. The relative fault of the Company and the Indemnified Parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and the Indemnified Parties and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

 

28


Each of the Company and the Indemnified Parties agrees that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6.2(b) were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. In connection with the registration of the Company’s securities, in no event shall an Investor be required to contribute any amount under this Section 6.2(b) in excess of the lesser of (i) that proportion of the total of such Losses indemnified against equal to the proportion of the total securities sold under such registration statement which is being sold by an Investor, or (ii) the proceeds received by such Investor from its sale of securities under such registration statement. No person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not found guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(c) The indemnification and contribution provided for in this Section 6.2 will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Parties or any officer, director, partner, member, employee, agent or controlling person of the Indemnified Parties. The provisions of this Section 6.2 are in addition to and shall supplement those set forth in any other agreement between the Company and the Indemnified Parties.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company agrees to pay and hold such Investor harmless against liability for payment of all reasonable fees and disbursement of counsel in connection with the enforcement, amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement and the agreements, documents and instruments contemplated and executed pursuant hereto.

6.3 Attorneys’ Fees. In the event that any suit or action is instituted to enforce any provision in this Agreement, the prevailing party in such dispute shall be entitled to recover from the losing party all fees, costs and expenses of enforcing any right of such prevailing party under or with respect to this Agreement and the agreements, documents and instruments contemplated hereby and executed pursuant hereto, including without limitation, such reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and accountants, which shall include, without limitation, all fees, costs and expenses of appeals.

8.7 Dispute Resolution.

(a) All disputes, claims, or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other agreement executed and delivered pursuant to this Agreement or the negotiation, validity or performance hereof and thereof or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby that are not resolved by mutual agreement shall be resolved solely and exclusively by binding arbitration to be conducted before the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). If

 

34


AAA ceases operations, then the parties shall select a comparable organization that provides qualified arbitration services. The arbitration shall be held in Boston, Massachusetts before a single arbitrator and shall be conducted in accordance with the rules and regulations promulgated by AAA unless specifically modified herein.

The parties covenant and agree that the arbitration hearing shall commence within ninety (90) days of the date on which a written demand for arbitration is filed by any party hereto. In connection with the arbitration proceeding, the arbitrator shall have the power to order the production of documents by each party and any third-party witnesses. In addition, each party may take up to three depositions as of right, and the arbitrator may in his or her discretion allow additional depositions upon good cause shown by the moving party. However, the arbitrator shall not have the power to order the answering of interrogatories or the response to requests for admission. In connection with any arbitration, each party shall provide to the other, no later than seven (7) business days before the date of the arbitration hearing, the identity of all persons that may testify at the arbitration and a copy of all documents that may be introduced at the arbitration hearing or considered or used by a party’s witness or expert. The arbitrator’s decision and award shall be made and delivered within three (3) months of the selection of the arbitrator. The arbitrator’s decision shall set forth a reasoned basis for any finding of liability or award of damages. The arbitrator shall not have power to award damages in excess of actual compensatory damages and shall not multiply actual damages or award punitive damages or any other damages that are specifically excluded under this Agreement, and each party hereby irrevocably waives any claim to such damages.

The parties covenant and agree that they will participate in the arbitration in good faith and that they will share equally its costs, except as otherwise provided herein. The arbitrator may in his or her discretion assess costs and expenses (including the reasonable legal fees and expenses of the prevailing party whether claimant or respondent) against any party to a proceeding. Any party failing or refusing to comply with an order of the arbitrators shall be liable for costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the other party in enforcing the award. Nothing in this Section 8.7 shall prohibit any party from proceeding in court without prior arbitration for the limited purpose of seeking a temporary or permanent injunction to avoid immediate and irreparable harm. The provisions of this Section 8.7 shall be enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Unless otherwise ordered, the parties shall bear their own attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses in connection with the arbitration. The parties will share equally in the fees and expenses charged by AAA.

(b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the exclusive use of AAA to resolve all disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other agreement executed and delivered pursuant to this Agreement or the negotiation, validity or performance hereof and thereof or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and further consents to the jurisdiction of the courts of the Massachusetts for the purposes of enforcing the arbitration provisions of Section 8.7(a) of this Agreement. Each party further irrevocably waives any objection to proceeding before AAA based upon lack of personal jurisdiction or to the laying of venue and further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to make a claim in any court that arbitration before AAA

 

35


has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each of the parties hereto hereby consents to service of process by registered mail at the address to which notices are to be given. Each of the parties hereto agrees that its or his submission to jurisdiction and its or his consent to service of process by mail is made for the express benefit of the other parties hereto.

(c) Remedies; Severability. Notwithstanding Section 8.7, it is specifically understood and agreed that any breach of the provisions of this Agreement by any Person subject hereto will result in irreparable injury to the other parties hereto, that the remedy at law alone will be an inadequate remedy for such breach, and that, in addition to any other remedies which they may have, such other parties may enforce their respective rights by actions for specific performance (to the extent permitted by law). The Company may refuse to recognize any unauthorized transferee as one of its stockholders for any purpose, including, without limitation, for purposes of dividend and voting rights, until the relevant party or parties have complied with all applicable provisions of this Agreement, the Stockholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed prohibited or invalid under such applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, and such prohibition or invalidity shall not invalidate the remainder of such provision or the other provisions of this Agreement.

8.8 Assignment. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors and assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties hereto; provided that, the Company may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder to any party without the written consent of the Investors. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other agreement referred to herein, an Investor may assign any of its rights under this Agreement to any Affiliate of such Investor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all representations, covenants and agreements benefiting the Investors shall inure to the benefit of any and all subsequent holders from time to time of the Series F Preferred Stock or Conversion Shares.

The holder of each share of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock shall be entitled to notice of any stockholders’ meeting in accordance with the Bylaws of the Corporation and shall vote with holders of the Common Stock, voting together as a single class, upon all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, excluding those matters required to be submitted to a class or series vote pursuant to the terms hereof (including, without limitation, Section A.8) or by law.

 

43


3. Dividends. The holders of shares of Series F Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive in preference to the holders of any and all other classes of Preferred Stock and Common Stock, when and if declared by the Board of Directors, out of funds legally available therefor, cumulative dividends on such Series F Preferred Stock in cash at the rate per annum of $0.163 per share from the Issuance Date (as defined below), subject to proration for partial years on the basis of a 365-day year (the “Series F Preferred Dividends”). The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series C Preferred Stock, the Series D Preferred Stock and the Series E Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Junior Preferred Stock”) shall be entitled to receive, pari passu with respect to each such series of Junior Preferred Stock and in preference to the Junior Stock (as defined in Section A.12), when as and if declared by the Board of Directors, out of funds legally available therefore, cumulative dividends on such Preferred Stock in cash at the rate per annum of $0.036 per share with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock, $0.052 per share with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock, $0.051 per share with respect to the Series C Preferred Stock, $0.146 per share with respect to the Series D Preferred Stock and $0.154 per share with respect to the Series E Preferred Stock, from the Issuance Date, subject to proration for partial years on the basis of a 365 day year (collectively, the “Junior Preferred Dividends” and together with the Series F Preferred Dividends, the “Preferred Dividends”).

No dividends on the Junior Preferred Stock shall be paid or set apart for payment unless, at the same time, a like proportionate dividend shall be paid or set apart to all shares of Junior Preferred Stock then outstanding. Dividends paid in an amount less than the total amount of such dividends at the time accumulated and payable on all outstanding shares of Junior Preferred Stock shall be allocated pro rata based upon the relative cumulative and unpaid dividends on all such shares at the time outstanding. So long as any shares of Series F Preferred Stock are outstanding and the Series F Preferred Dividends have not been paid in full in cash, (a) no dividend whatsoever (other than stock dividends) shall be paid or declared, and no distribution shall be made on any shares of the Junior Preferred Stock or the Junior Stock; and (b) except as provided in Section A.8(g)(iv), no shares of Common Stock or other shares of Junior Stock shall be repurchased, redeemed or acquired by the Corporation and no monies shall be paid into or set aside or made available for a sinking fund for the purchase, redemption or acquisition thereof. So long as any shares of Junior Preferred Stock are outstanding and the Junior Preferred Dividends have not been paid in full in cash, (a) no dividend whatsoever (other than stock dividends) shall be paid or declared, and no distribution shall be made on any shares of the Junior Stock; and (b) except as provided in Section A.8(g)(iv), no shares of Common Stock or other shares of Junior Stock shall be repurchased, redeemed or acquired by the Corporation and no monies shall be paid into or set aside or made available for a sinking fund for the purchase, redemption or acquisition thereof.

 

44


In addition to the Preferred Dividends, the holders of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, together with the Series 1 Stock, out of funds legally available therefor, any dividends declared on the Common Stock (treating each share of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock as being equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which each such share of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock would be converted if it were converted pursuant to the provisions of Section A.6 hereof with such number determined as of the record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such dividends).

All numbers relating to the calculation of dividends pursuant to this Section A.3 shall be subject to equitable adjustment in the event of any stock split, combination, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other similar event involving a change in the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series C Preferred Stock, the Series D Preferred Stock, the Series E Preferred Stock, the Series F Preferred Stock or the Series 1 Stock.

4. Liquidation and Extraordinary Transactions.

(a) Liquidation Preference. Unless waived by the vote or written consent of the holders of at least (I) a majority of the outstanding shares of each of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock and (II) at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of Series F Preferred Stock (voting separately as a separate class and on an as-converted basis), upon a Liquidation Event (as defined below) or an Extraordinary Transaction (as defined below), the holders of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to stockholders, whether such assets are capital, surplus or earnings, as follows:

(i) Each holder of outstanding shares of Series F Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid, before any amount shall be paid or distributed to the holders of Junior Preferred Stock or to the holders of Junior Stock, an amount in cash equal to (A) $2.72 per share with respect to the Series F Preferred Stock (adjusted appropriately for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like with respect to the Series F Preferred Stock) plus (B) any accumulated, but unpaid, dividends, including without limitation, the Series F Preferred Dividends (collectively, the “Series F Liquidation Amount”).

(ii) Following payment of the Series F Liquidation Amount, each holder of outstanding shares of Junior Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid, before any amount shall be paid or distributed to the holders of Junior Stock, an amount in cash equal to: (A) $0.4464 per share with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock (adjusted appropriately for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock), $0.6524 per share with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock (adjusted appropriately for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock), $0.8500 per share with respect to the Series C Preferred Stock (adjusted appropriately for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like with respect to the Series C Preferred Stock), $2.4318 per share with respect to the Series D Preferred Stock (adjusted

 

45


appropriately for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like with respect to the Series D Preferred Stock) and $2.5594 per share with respect to the Series E Preferred Stock (adjusted appropriately for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like with respect to the Series E Preferred Stock) plus (B) any accumulated but unpaid dividends, including, without limitation, the Junior Preferred Dividends to which such holder of Junior Preferred Stock is then entitled (the applicable sum of clauses (A) and (B) being referred to herein as the applicable “Junior Preferred Liquidation Amount”), provided that if, upon any Liquidation Event or Extraordinary Transaction, the amounts payable with respect to the Junior Preferred Liquidation Amount as provided in this Section A.4 are not paid in full, the holders of Junior Preferred Stock shall share ratably in any distribution of assets in proportion to the full respective preferential amounts to which they are entitled.

(iii) Upon the completion of the distributions required by Section A.4(a)(i) and Section A.4(a)(ii) above, any remaining assets available for distribution to stockholders shall be distributed among the holders of Preferred Stock, Series 1 Stock and Common Stock pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by each (assuming full conversion of all such Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock) (the “Residual Liquidation Amount” and, together with the Junior Preferred Liquidation Amount and the Series F Liquidation Amount, the “Total Liquidation Amount”) until, with respect to each series of Preferred Stock, such holders shall have received the applicable Participation Cap (as defined below), including amounts paid pursuant to Section A.4(a)(i)(A) with respect to the Series F Preferred Stock and Section A.4(a)(ii)(A) with respect to the Junior Preferred Stock but excluding amounts paid pursuant to Section A.4(a)(i)(B) with respect to the Series F Preferred Stock and Section A.4(a)(ii)(B) with respect to the Junior Preferred Stock; thereafter, if assets remain for distribution, the holders of the Series 1 Stock and Common Stock of this corporation shall receive all of the remaining assets pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by each (assuming full conversion of all such Series 1 Stock). For purposes of this Ninth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, “Participation Cap” shall mean $1.3392 for the Series A Preferred Stock, $1.9572 for the Series B Preferred Stock, $1.7000 for the Series C Preferred Stock, $6.0795 for the Series D Preferred Stock, $6.3985 for the Series E Preferred Stock and $6.80 for the Series F Preferred Stock (each as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, recapitalizations or the like with respect to such series of Preferred Stock).

Liquidation Event” shall mean any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary.

Extraordinary Transaction” shall mean (w) a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another entity (except for a merger or consolidation in which the holders of capital stock of the Corporation immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continue to hold at least a majority of the outstanding voting power of such surviving entity), (x) the closing of the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Corporation, (y) the closing

 

46


of any purchase of shares of capital stock of the Corporation (either through a negotiated stock purchase or a tender for such shares) by any party or group that did not beneficially own a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation immediately prior to such purchase, the effect of which is that such party or group beneficially owns at least a majority of such voting power immediately after such purchase, or (z) the redemption or repurchase of shares (other than the Preferred Stock as provided in this Certificate of Incorporation), the effect of which is that any party or group that did not beneficially own a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation immediately prior to such redemption or repurchase beneficially owns a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation after such redemption or repurchase.

(b) Deemed Conversion of Preferred Stock. Notwithstanding the above, for purposes of determining the amount each holder of shares of Preferred Stock is entitled to receive with respect to a Liquidation Event or an Extraordinary Transaction, each such holder of shares of a series of Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have converted (regardless of whether such holder actually converted) such holder’s shares of such series into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the Liquidation Event or Extraordinary Transaction if, as a result of an actual conversion, such holder would receive, in the aggregate, an amount greater than the amount that would be distributed to such holder if such holder did not convert such series of Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock. If any such holder shall be deemed to have converted shares of Preferred Stock into Common Stock pursuant to this paragraph, then such holder shall not be entitled to receive any distribution that would otherwise be made to holders of Preferred Stock that have not converted (or have not been deemed to have converted) into shares of Common Stock.

(c) Conversion Rights Not Impaired. Nothing in this Section A.4 shall, with respect to any Liquidation Event or Extraordinary Transaction, in any way limit the right of the holders of the Preferred Stock to elect to have the provisions of Section A.6 govern such Liquidation Event or Extraordinary Transaction.

(d) Non-Cash Consideration. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section A.4(a), in connection with any Extraordinary Transaction, (i) the aggregate Residual Liquidation Amount payable to the holders of the Preferred Stock shall be paid by the Corporation in cash to the extent that cash is paid in such Extraordinary Transaction and then (or alternatively if no cash payments are involved, as applicable), in such other consideration (valued as provided below) as is delivered in such Extraordinary Transaction, and (ii) the aggregate Residual Liquidation Amount payable to the holders of the Preferred Stock shall be paid by the Corporation in the same combination of cash and other consideration as is paid to the holders of the Common Stock and Series 1 Stock in accordance with Section A.4(a)(iii).

Any securities or other consideration to be delivered to the holders of the Preferred Stock upon any Liquidation Event or Extraordinary Transaction shall be valued as follows: (i) if traded on a nationally recognized securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices of the securities on such exchange or system over the twenty-one (21) trading days (or all such trading days on which such securities have been traded if fewer than twenty-one (21) days) preceding the

 

47


consummation of such Liquidation Event or Extraordinary Transaction; and (ii) if not so traded, the value shall be the fair market value thereof, as reasonably determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

(e) Surrender of Certificates. On the effective date of any Extraordinary Transaction, the Corporation shall pay all cash and other consideration to which the holders of Preferred Stock shall be entitled under this Section A.4. Upon receipt of such payment, each holder of shares of Preferred Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates representing such shares, duly assigned or endorsed for transfer to the Corporation (or accompanied by duly executed stock powers relating thereto), at the principal executive office of the Corporation or the offices of the transfer agent for the Corporation, or shall notify the Corporation or any transfer agent that such certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed and shall execute an affidavit or agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation to indemnify the Corporation from any loss incurred by it in connection therewith (an “Affidavit of Loss”), and each surrendered certificate shall be canceled and retired.

(f) Notice. Prior to the occurrence of any Liquidation Event or Extraordinary Transaction, the Corporation will furnish each (a) holder of Preferred Stock and (b) holder of at least two percent (2%) of the then outstanding shares of Series 1 Stock notice in accordance with Section A.9 hereof, together with a certificate prepared by the chief financial officer of the Corporation describing the facts of such Liquidation Event or Extraordinary Transaction, stating in reasonable detail the amount(s) per share of Preferred Stock that each holder of Preferred Stock would receive pursuant to the provisions of Section A.4(a) hereof and stating in reasonable detail the facts upon which such amount was determined and, in connection with any Extraordinary Transaction, describing in reasonable detail all material terms of such Extraordinary Transaction, including, without limitation, the consideration to be delivered in connection with such Extraordinary Transaction, the valuation of the Corporation at the time such Extraordinary Transaction and the identities of the parties to the Extraordinary Transaction.

5. Redemption.

(a) Redemption. On or after December 31, 2010, at the election of the holders of sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall redeem the shares of Preferred Stock held by such holders at the applicable Redemption Price (as defined below), the foregoing election shall be made by such holders giving the Corporation not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice, which notice shall set forth the date for such redemption (each a “Redemption Date”). Within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice, the Corporation shall provide written notice to all other holders of Preferred Stock notifying all such holders of such request for redemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, holders of sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock not subject to the redemption specified in any notice given pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 5(a) may thereafter require the Corporation to also redeem such Preferred Stock at such Redemption Date upon written notice to the Corporation within ten (10) days of receipt of such original notice from the Corporation. On each Redemption Date, the Corporation shall redeem, on a pari passu basis, (A) all shares of Series F Preferred Stock for a per share redemption price equal to the greater of (i) the Series F Liquidation Amount or (ii) the amount received if each share of Series F Preferred Stock was converted into Common Stock

 

48


and such Common Stock was redeemed at its Going Concern Value (as defined in Section 5(c) hereof)) (the “Series F Redemption Price”) and (B) all shares of Junior Preferred Stock for a per share redemption price equal to the greater of (i) the applicable Junior Preferred Liquidation Amount or (ii) the amount received if each share of Junior Preferred Stock was converted into Common Stock and such Common Stock was redeemed at its Going Concern Value (as defined in Section 5(c) hereof) (the applicable “Junior Preferred Redemption Price”, together with the Series F Redemption Price, the “Redemption Price”). On such Redemption Date, each holder of shares of Preferred Stock shall surrender the certificate evidencing such shares to the Corporation and shall thereupon be entitled to receive payment of, as applicable, the Series F Redemption Price or the applicable Junior Preferred Redemption Price. From and after such Redemption Date, unless there shall have been a default in payment or tender by the Corporation of the aggregate Redemption Price, all dividends on the Preferred Stock shall cease to accrue, all rights of the holders with respect to such redeemed shares of Preferred Stock (except the right to receive the Series F Redemption Price or the applicable Junior Preferred Redemption Price, as applicable, upon surrender of their certificate) shall cease and such shares shall not thereafter be transferred on the books of this Corporation or be deemed outstanding for any purposes whatsoever.

(b) Insufficient Funds. If the funds of the Corporation legally available for redemption of shares of Preferred Stock on a Redemption Date are insufficient to redeem all shares of Preferred Stock to be redeemed on such Redemption Date, the Corporation shall use those funds which are legally available to redeem the maximum possible number of such shares ratably among the holders of such shares to be redeemed based upon the relative aggregate amounts to which such holders are entitled in connection with such redemption, all such redeemed shares to be cancelled in accordance with the foregoing. At any time thereafter when additional funds of the Corporation are legally available for the redemption of shares of Preferred Stock, such funds will immediately be used to redeem the balance of the shares which the Corporation has become obligated to redeem on the Redemption Date but which it has not redeemed at the Series F Redemption Price or the applicable Junior Preferred Redemption Price, as applicable, together with any accrued interest thereon as provided below. If any shares of Preferred Stock are not redeemed for the foregoing reason or because the Corporation otherwise failed to pay or tender to pay the aggregate applicable Redemption Price on all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock to be redeemed, all such shares which have not been redeemed shall remain outstanding and entitled to all the rights and preferences provided herein, and the Corporation, after the final and binding determination in subsection (e) below, shall pay interest on the Series F Redemption Price or the applicable Junior Preferred Redemption Price, as applicable, for the unredeemed portion at an aggregate per annum rate equal to twelve percent (12%), which rate shall increase every twelve (12) months thereafter by an additional one percent (1%) per annum to a maximum of twenty percent (20%) per annum or the maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable law, whichever is less.

(c) Going Concern Value. For purposes of Section A.5(a) hereof, “Going Concern Value” shall mean the value of a share of Common Stock determined: (i) as though all outstanding securities which are then convertible into, exercisable for or exchangeable into shares of Common Stock of the Corporation (including, without limitation, vested options and warrants) had been converted into, exercised for or exchanged into Common Stock of the Corporation and any amounts payable upon such conversion, exercise or exchange was paid to

the Corporation in connection therewith; (ii) without any reduction in value for lack of control or the inherent lack of liquidity of minority interests; (iii) giving full effect to the earnings history and prospects of the Corporation; and (iv) on a basis which values each share of Common Stock at the same per share price. In order to determine the Going Concern Value, the Board of Directors of the Corporation and the holder or holders of Preferred Stock electing to redeem shares of Preferred Stock shall meet and use their reasonable best efforts to reach a fair agreement on the Going Concern Value. If such parties are unable to reach such agreement within a reasonable amount of time, the Board of Directors shall select an independent appraiser or investment banking firm of national standing within thirty (30) days after giving of notice that requires a determination of Going Concern Value. Such appraiser or investment banking firm will have thirty (30) days in which to determine the Going Concern Value and its determination will be final and binding on all parties concerned. All costs of such determination shall be borne by the Corporation.

6. Conversion. The holders of the Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock shall have the following conversion rights:

(a) Voluntary Conversion. Each holder of shares of Preferred Stock may elect at any time to convert all or a portion of the shares of Preferred Stock then held by such holder into a number of shares of Common Stock computed by multiplying (X) the number of shares of Preferred Stock to be converted by (Y) the quotient obtained by dividing the applicable Conversion Value by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect. Each holder of shares of Series 1 Stock may elect at any time to convert all or a portion of the shares of Series 1 Stock then held by such holder into a number of shares of Common Stock computed by multiplying (X) the number of shares of Series 1 Stock to be converted by (Y) the quotient obtained by dividing the applicable Conversion Value by the applicable Conversion Price then in effect. The “Conversion Value” of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be $0.4464 per share, the “Conversion Value” of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be $0.6524 per share, the “Conversion Value” of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be $0.8500 per share, the “Conversion Value” of the Series D Preferred Stock shall be $2.4318 per share, the “Conversion Value” of the Series E Preferred Stock shall be $2.5594 per share and the “Conversion Value” of the Series F Preferred Stock shall be $2.72 per share. The “Conversion Price” for the Series A Preferred Stock shall initially be $0.4464 per share, the “Conversion Price” of the Series B Preferred Stock shall initially be $0.6524 per share, the “Conversion Price” of the Series C Preferred Stock shall initially be $0.8500 per share, the “Conversion Price” of the Series D Preferred Stock shall initially be $2.4318 per share, the “Conversion Price” of the Series E Preferred Stock shall initially be $2.5594 per share and the “Conversion Price” of the Series F Preferred Stock shall initially be $2.72 per share. The “Conversion Value” of the Series 1 Stock shall be $1.9199 per share. The “Conversion Price” of the Series 1 Stock shall initially be $1.9199 per share. Additionally, (i) each shares of Series F Preferred Stock outstanding shall automatically be converted into the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares are convertible according to the formula above at the then effective Conversion Price upon the date specified by the holders of not less than sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the shares of such Series F Preferred Stock then outstanding and (ii) each share of a series of Junior Preferred Stock and each share of Series 1 Stock outstanding shall automatically be converted into the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares are convertible according to the formula set forth above at the then effective Conversion Price upon the date specified by the holders of not less than a

 

50


majority of the shares of such series of Junior Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock, respectively, then outstanding. If shares of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock are converted pursuant to this Section A.6(a) at a time when there are any declared and unpaid dividends or other amounts due on or in respect of such shares, other than the Preferred Dividends, such dividends and other amounts shall be paid in full by the Corporation in connection with such conversion before any amounts shall be paid or distributed to the holders of Junior Stock.

(b) Automatic Conversion Upon Qualified Public Offering. Each share of Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock outstanding shall automatically be converted into the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares are convertible as computed according to the formula set forth in Section A.6(a) hereof at the then effective applicable Conversion Price as of, and in all cases subject to, the closing of the Corporation’s first firm commitment underwritten offering to the public pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), provided that (i) such registration statement covers the offer and sale of Common Stock of which the aggregate net proceeds attributable to sales for the account of the Corporation exceed $55,000,000, (ii) such Common Stock is listed for trading on either the New York Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ Global Market or the NASDAQ Global Select Market and (iii) the per share public offering price (net of underwriter discounts and commissions) exceeds $4.8636 per share (adjusted appropriately for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like) (a “QPO” or a “Qualified Public Offering”); provided, that if a closing of a QPO occurs, all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock shall be deemed to have been converted into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such closing. If the holders of shares of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock are required to convert the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock pursuant to this Section A.6(b) at a time when there are any accumulated but unpaid dividends or other amounts due on or in respect of such shares, other than Preferred Dividends, such dividends and other amounts shall be paid in full in cash by the Corporation in connection with such conversion before any amounts shall be paid or distributed to the holders of Junior Stock.

(c) Procedure for Voluntary Conversion. Upon election to convert pursuant to Section A.6(a), the relevant holder or holders of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates representing the Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock being converted, duly assigned or endorsed for transfer to the Corporation (or accompanied by duly executed stock powers relating thereto), at the principal executive office of the Corporation or the offices of the transfer agent for the Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock or such office or offices in the continental United States of an agent for conversion as may from time to time be designated by notice to the holders of the Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock by the Corporation, or in the event the certificate or certificates are lost, stolen or missing, shall deliver an Affidavit of Loss with respect to such certificates. The issuance by the Corporation of Common Stock upon a conversion of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock upon election to convert pursuant to Section A.6(a) hereof shall be effective as of the surrender of the certificate or certificates for the Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock, as the case may be, to be converted, duly assigned or endorsed for transfer to the Corporation (or accompanied by duly executed stock powers relating thereto), or as of the delivery of an Affidavit of Loss. Upon surrender of a certificate representing Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock for conversion or delivery of an Affidavit of Loss, the Corporation shall issue and send by hand delivery, by courier, by first class mail (postage prepaid) or, in the case of overseas holders, by reputable two day air courier, the holder thereof

 

51


or to such holder’s designee, at the address designated by such holder, certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holders shall be entitled upon conversion, plus a cash payment in the amount of any accrued but unpaid dividends, other than the Preferred Dividends, and other amounts as contemplated by this Section A.6 in respect of the shares of Preferred Stock which are converted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a voluntary conversion of all of the outstanding shares of a series of Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock pursuant to Section A.6(a) upon the election of the holders of not less than a majority of such series of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock, respectively, the outstanding shares of such series of Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock shall be converted automatically without any further action by the holders of such shares and whether or not the certificates representing such shares are surrendered to the Corporation or its transfer agent and all rights with respect to such applicable series of Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock shall terminate, except any of the rights of the holders thereof upon surrender of their certificate or certificates therefore or delivery of an Affidavit of Loss thereof to receive certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock have been converted plus all declared but unpaid dividends, other than the Preferred Dividends, and other amounts as contemplated by this Section A.6 in respect of the shares of such series of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock which are converted. The issuance of certificates for Common Stock upon conversion of Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock will be made without charge to the holders of such shares for any issuance tax in respect thereof or other costs incurred by the Corporation in connection with such conversion and the related issuance of such stock.

(d) Procedure for Automatic Conversion on Qualified Public Offering. As of, and in all cases subject to, the closing of a Qualified Public Offering (the “Automatic Conversion Date”), all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock shall be converted automatically into shares of Common Stock as set forth in Section A.6(b) hereof and without any further action by the holders of such shares and whether or not the certificates representing such shares of Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock are surrendered to the Corporation or its transfer agent. On the Automatic Conversion Date, all rights with respect to the Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock so converted shall terminate, except any of the rights of the holders thereof upon surrender of their certificate or certificates therefor or delivery of an Affidavit of Loss thereof to receive certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock into which such Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock has been converted plus all accrued but unpaid dividends, other than the Preferred Dividends, and other amounts as contemplated by Section A.6(b). If so required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or by his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing. Upon surrender of such certificates or Affidavit of Loss, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to such holder, promptly at such office and in its name as shown on such surrendered certificate or certificates, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock surrendered are convertible on the Automatic Conversion Date and shall pay all declared but unpaid dividends, other than the Preferred Dividends, and other amounts as contemplated by Section A.6(b) in respect of the shares of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock which are converted.

(e) Fractional Shares. The Corporation shall not be obligated to deliver to holders of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock any fractional shares of Common Stock issuable upon any conversion of such Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock, but in lieu thereof may make a cash payment in respect thereof in any manner permitted by law.

 

52


(f) Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion. The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock such number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock, the Corporation will take such corporate action as may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose.

(g) No Closing of Transfer Books. The Corporation shall not close its books against the transfer of shares of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock in any manner which would interfere with the timely conversion of any shares of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock.

7. Adjustments. The Conversion Price in effect from time to time for each of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock shall be subject to adjustment from time to time after the date hereof as follows:

(a) Dividends and Stock Splits. If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time after the date hereof is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or by a subdivision or split-up of shares of Common Stock, then on the date such payment is made or such change is effective, each applicable Conversion Price shall be appropriately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of any shares of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock shall be increased in proportion to such increase of outstanding shares of Common Stock.

(b) Reverse Stock Splits. If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time after the date hereof is decreased by a combination or reverse split of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then on the effective date of such combination or reverse split, each applicable Conversion Price shall be appropriately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of any shares of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock, shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of Common Stock.

(c) Sale of Common Stock. In the event the Corporation shall at any time, or from time to time, issue, sell or exchange any shares of Common Stock (including shares held in the Corporation’s treasury but excluding (i) up to 14,874,811 shares of Common Stock and up to 325,000 shares of Series 1 Stock (as appropriately adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like), or options to purchase such Common Stock or Series 1 Stock, to its officers, directors, employees and consultants pursuant to stock and options plans approved by a majority of the Board of Directors, (ii) Common Stock upon conversion of the Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock, (iii) securities as a result of any stock split, stock dividend or other distribution shares of Common Stock that is covered by Sections A.7(a) and (b) hereof, (iv)

 

53


securities upon conversion or exercise of convertible or exercisable securities previously issued in compliance with this Section A.7(c) or outstanding on the date of filing of this Ninth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, (v) securities issued or issuable pursuant to any loan arrangement or debt financing from a bank or similar financial institution approved by a majority of the Board of Directors and (vi) securities in connection with strategic transactions involving the Company and other entities, including joint venture, marketing or distribution arrangements or technology transfer or development arrangements, provided that such strategic transactions and the issuance of securities in connection therewith have been approved by a majority of the Board of Directors (but excluding any merger, consolidation, acquisition or similar business combination) (the securities referred to in clauses (i) through (vi) shall collectively be referred to as the “Excluded Shares”) for a consideration per share (the “Purchase Price”) less than the applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance, sale or exchange of such shares (any such issuance, sale or exchange is hereafter referred to as a “Dilutive Transaction”), then and thereafter successively upon each such Dilutive Transaction the applicable Conversion Price shall forthwith be reduced to an amount determined by multiplying the applicable Conversion Price by a fraction:

(i) the numerator of which shall be (X) the number of shares of Common Stock of all classes outstanding immediately prior to the Dilutive Transaction (excluding treasury shares but including all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of any outstanding shares of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock, options, warrants, rights or other convertible securities) plus (Y) the number of shares of Common Stock which the net aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for such additional shares of Common Stock so issued in the Dilutive Transaction would purchase at the applicable Conversion Price (prior to such adjustment); and

(ii) the denominator of which shall be (X) the number of shares of Common Stock of all classes outstanding immediately prior to the Dilutive Transaction (excluding treasury shares but including all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of any outstanding shares of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock, options, warrants, rights or other convertible securities), plus (Y) the number of such additional shares of Common Stock so issued in the Dilutive Transaction.

(d) Sale of Options, Rights or Convertible Securities. In the event the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time, issue options, warrants or rights to subscribe for shares of Common Stock, or issue any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock (other than any options or warrants for Excluded Shares), for a purchase price (determined by dividing the Net Aggregate Consideration (as determined below) by the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that would be issued if all such options, warrants, rights or other convertible securities were exercised or converted to the fullest extent permitted by their terms) less than the applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such options, warrants or rights or other convertible or exchangeable securities, the applicable Conversion Price shall forthwith be reduced to an amount determined by multiplying the applicable Conversion Price by a fraction:

(i) the numerator of which shall be (X) the number of shares of Common Stock of all classes outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or other convertible securities (excluding treasury shares but including all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of any outstanding shares of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock, options, warrants, rights or other convertible securities), plus (Y) the number of shares of Common Stock which the total amount of consideration received by the Corporation for the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or convertible securities plus the minimum amount set forth in the terms of such security as payable to the Corporation upon the exercise or conversion thereof (the “Net Aggregate Consideration”) would purchase at the applicable Conversion Price prior to adjustment; and

 

54


(ii) the denominator of which shall be (X) the number of shares of Common Stock of all classes outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such options, warrants, rights or other convertible securities (excluding treasury shares but including all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of any outstanding shares of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock, options, warrants, rights or other convertible securities), plus (Y) the maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that would be issued if all such options, warrants, rights or other convertible securities were exercised or converted.

(e) Expiration or Change in Price. If the consideration per share provided for in any options, warrants, convertible securities or any other rights to subscribe for shares of Common Stock or any securities exchangeable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock, changes at any time, the applicable Conversion Price in effect at the time of such change shall be readjusted to the applicable Conversion Price which would have been in effect at such time had such options, warrants, convertible securities or other rights provided for such changed consideration per share (determined as provided in Section A.7(d) hereof), at the time initially granted, issued or sold; provided, that such adjustment of the applicable Conversion Price will be made only as and to the extent that such applicable Conversion Price effective upon such adjustment remains less than or equal to such Conversion Price that would be in effect if such options, warrants, rights or securities had not been issued. No adjustment of a Conversion Price shall be made under this Section A.7 upon the issuance of any additional shares of Common Stock which are issued pursuant to the exercise of any warrants, options or other subscription or purchase rights or pursuant to the exercise of any conversion or exchange rights in any convertible securities if an adjustment shall previously have been made upon the issuance of such warrants, options or other rights. Any adjustment of a Conversion Price shall be disregarded if, as and when the rights to acquire shares of Common Stock upon exercise or conversion of the warrants, options, rights or convertible securities which gave rise to such adjustment expire or are canceled without having been exercised, so that the Conversion Price effective immediately upon such cancellation or expiration shall be equal to the Conversion Price in effect at the time of the issuance of the expired or canceled warrants, options, rights or convertible securities, with such additional adjustments as would have been made to the Conversion Price had the expired or canceled warrants, options, rights or convertible securities not been issued.

 

55


(f) Other Adjustments. In the event the Corporation shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Corporation other than shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event lawful and adequate provision shall be made so that the holders of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock shall receive upon conversion thereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the number of securities of the Corporation which they would have received had their Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock been converted into Common Stock on the date of such event and had they thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the date of conversion, retained such securities receivable by them as aforesaid during such period, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this Section A.7 as applied to such distributed securities.

(g) Reorganization, etc. If the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock shall be changed into the same or different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or stock dividend provided for above, or a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets provided for elsewhere in this Section A.7), then and in each such event the holder of each share of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock shall have the right to receive upon conversion of the Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification or other change based upon the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock would have been converted immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

(h) Mergers and Other Reorganizations. If at any time or from time to time there shall be a capital reorganization of the Common Stock (other than a subdivision, combination or reclassification provided for elsewhere in this Section A.7) or a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another Corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s properties and assets to any other person, then as part of and as a condition to the effectiveness of such reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale, lawful and adequate provision shall be made so that the holders of the Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock, shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of each share of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the successor corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation or sale, to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of a share of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock immediately prior to such capital reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale would have been entitled on such capital reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale. In any such case, appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights of the holders of the Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock after the reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale to the end that the provisions of this Section A.7 (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the applicable Conversion Price and the number of shares purchasable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be, with respect to any shares of stock, securities or assets to be deliverable thereafter upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock and Series 1 Stock.

 

56


Each holder of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock upon the occurrence of a capital reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets and properties and such events are more fully set forth on the first paragraph of this Section A.7(h), shall have the option of electing treatment of its shares of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock under either this Section A.7(h) or Section A.4 hereof which notice shall be submitted in writing no later than five (5) business days before the effective date of such event.

(i) Calculations. All calculations under this Section A.7 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one hundredth (1/100) of a share, as the case may be.

(j) Certificate. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment pursuant to this Section A.7, the Corporation at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare and furnish to each holder of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Corporation shall, upon written request at any time of any holder of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustments and readjustments, (ii) the applicable Conversion Price before and after such adjustment or readjustment, and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock, if applicable, and the amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of such holder’s shares of Preferred Stock or Series 1 Stock.

1. The number of directors of the Corporation shall be such number as from time to time shall be fixed by, or in the manner provided in, the Bylaws of the Corporation and this Ninth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. Unless and except to the extent that the Bylaws of the Corporation shall otherwise require, the election of directors of the Corporation need not be by written ballot. Each director of the Corporation shall be entitled to one vote per director on all matters voted or acted by the Board of Directors.

 

63


2. The Board of Directors is expressly authorized to adopt, amend or repeal the By-laws of the Corporation to the extent specified in such Bylaws.

3. In the event that a member of the Board of Directors who is also a partner or employee of an entity that is a holder of Preferred Stock and that is in the business of investing and reinvesting in other entities, or an employee of an entity that manages such an entity (each, a “Fund”) acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or other matter in such individual’s capacity as a partner or employee of the Fund or the manager or general partner of the Fund (and other than in connection with such individual’s service as a member of the Board of Directors) and that may be an opportunity of interest for both the Corporation and such Fund (a “Corporate Opportunity”), then the Corporation (i) renounces any expectancy that such director or Fund offer an opportunity to participate in such Corporate Opportunity to the Corporation and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, waives any claim that such opportunity constituted a Corporate Opportunity that should have been presented by such director or Fund to the Corporation or any of its affiliates; provided, however, that such director acts in good faith.

ARTICLE VI

No person shall be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of his or her fiduciary duty as a director of the Corporation, except for liability (a) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (b) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (c) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (d) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. If the DGCL is amended after the effective date of this Ninth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of each past or present director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. The Corporation shall, to the maximum extent permitted from time to time under the law of the State of Delaware, indemnify and upon request advance expenses to any person who is or was a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, proceeding or claim, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was or has agreed to be a director of this corporation or while a director is or was serving at the request of this corporation as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of any corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, against expenses (including attorney’s fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement incurred (and not otherwise recovered) in connection with the investigation, preparation to defend or defense of such action, suit, proceeding or claim; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not require the Corporation to indemnify or advance expenses to any person in connection with any action, suit, proceeding, claim or counterclaim initiated by or on behalf of such person. Such indemnification

 

64


shall not be exclusive of other indemnification rights arising under any by-law, agreement, vote of directors or stockholders or otherwise and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs and legal representatives of such person. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, the Corporation is permitted to provide indemnification, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, of (and advancement of expenses to) agents of this corporation (and any other persons to which the DGCL permits this corporation to provide indemnification) through bylaw provisions, agreements with such agents or other persons, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, in excess of the indemnification and advancement otherwise permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, subject only to limits created by applicable DGCL (statutory or non-statutory), with respect to actions for breach of duty to this corporation, its stockholders, and others. Any person seeking indemnification under this Article VI shall be deemed to have met the standard of conduct required for such indemnification unless the contrary shall be established.

Any amendment, repeal or modification of the foregoing provisions of this Article VI shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director, officer, agent, or other person existing at the time of, or increase the liability of any director of this corporation with respect to any acts or omissions of such director, officer or agent occurring prior to, such amendment, repeal or modification.

ARTICLE VII

The Corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in this Ninth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by statute, and all rights conferred upon stockholders herein are granted subject to this reservation.

ARTICLE VIII

Whenever a compromise or arrangement is proposed between the Corporation and its creditors or any class of them and/or between this Corporation and its stockholders or any class of them, any court of equitable jurisdiction within the State of Delaware may, on the application in a summary way of the Corporation or of any creditor or stockholder thereof or on the application of any receiver or receivers appointed for the Corporation under the provisions of section 291 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code or on the application of trustees in dissolution or of any receiver or receivers appointed for the Corporation under the provisions of section 279 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code order a meeting of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of the Corporation, as the case may be, to be summoned in such manner as the said court directs. If a majority in number representing three-fourths in value of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of the Corporation, as the case may be, agree to any compromise or arrangement and to any reorganization of the Corporation as consequence of such compromise or arrangement, the said compromise or arrangement and the said reorganization shall, if sanctioned by the court to which the said application has been made, be binding on all the creditors or class of creditors, and/or on all the stockholders or class of stockholders, of the Corporation, as the case may be, and also on the Corporation.

Exhibit C

Form of Opinion of Counsel to the Company


July 15, 2011

To the Investors in Series F Convertible Participating

Preferred Stock of GlassHouse Technologies, Inc. listed on

Exhibit A to the Series F Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel for GlassHouse Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the sale by the Company to you of 2,205,884 shares of the Company’s Series F Convertible Participating Preferred Stock (the “Shares”) pursuant to the Series F Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and corresponding Disclosure Schedule (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) of even date herewith among the Company and the persons listed on Exhibit A attached thereto (the “Investors”). This opinion is given to you pursuant to Section 4.2 of the Stock Purchase Agreement in connection with the Closing of the sale of the Shares. Unless defined herein, capitalized terms have the meaning given them in the Stock Purchase Agreement.

In rendering this opinion, we have examined such matters of law as we considered necessary for the purpose of rendering this opinion. As to matters of fact material to the opinions expressed herein, we have relied upon the representations and warranties as to factual matters contained in and made by the Company pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement and the Opinion Certificate (defined below) and upon certificates and statements of government officials and of officers of the Company. In addition, we have examined originals or copies of documents, corporate records and other writings that we consider relevant for the purposes of this opinion. In such examination, we have assumed that the signatures on documents and instruments examined by us are authentic, that each is what it purports to be, and that all documents and instruments submitted to us as copies or facsimiles conform with the originals, which facts we have not independently verified.

In making our examination of documents, we have further assumed that (i) each party to such documents (other than the Company in connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement) had the power, legal competence and capacity to enter into and perform all of such party’s obligations thereunder, (ii) each party to such documents (other than the Company in connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement) has duly authorized, executed and delivered such documents, (iii) each of such documents is enforceable against and binding upon the parties thereto (other than the Stock Purchase Agreement against the Company), and (iv) there is no fact or circumstance relating to you or your business that might prevent you from enforcing any of the rights provided for in the Stock Purchase Agreement. We have also assumed that there are no extrinsic agreements or understandings among the parties to the Stock Purchase Agreement, or Contractual Obligations (as defined below) that would modify or interpret the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement or Contractual Obligations (as defined below) or the respective rights or obligations of the parties thereunder.

As used in this opinion, the expression “to our knowledge” or “known to us” with reference to matters of fact refers to the current actual knowledge of attorneys within the firm principally responsible for handling current matters for the Company. Except to the extent expressly set forth herein we have not undertaken any independent investigation to determine the existence or absence of any other facts, and no inference as to our knowledge of the existence or absence of any such facts should be drawn from our representation of the Company or the rendering of the opinions set forth below.

Where statements in this opinion are qualified by the term “material” or “materially,” those statements involve judgments and opinions as to the materiality or lack of materiality of any matter to the Company’s business, assets, results of operations or financial condition that are entirely those of the Company and its officers, after having been advised by us as to the legal effect and consequences of such matters. Such opinions and judgments are not known to us to be incorrect.

We express no opinion as to matters governed by any laws other than the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the corporate law of the State of Delaware and the federal law of the United States of America. We express no opinion as to whether the laws of any particular jurisdiction apply, and no opinion to the extent that the laws of any jurisdiction other than those identified above are applicable to the Stock Purchase Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby.

In rendering the opinion set forth in paragraph (a) below as to the good standing of the Company and as to its qualification to do business in California, Illinois, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, North Carolina, Texas and Virginia, we have relied exclusively on certificates of public officials, although we have not obtained tax good standing certificates in such states and no opinion is provided with respect to tax good standing in such states.

In rendering the opinion set forth in paragraph (d) below relating to the fully paid status of all of the issued shares of capital stock of the Company, we have relied, without independent verification, on the certificate of the President of the Company (the “Opinion Certificate”), to the effect that the Company has received the consideration approved by its Board of Directors for all of the issued shares of capital stock of the Company.

In rendering the opinion set forth in paragraph (d) relating to the status of the capitalization of the Company, we have relied without further investigation on (i) the Company’s Ninth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation as filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on November 3, 2008, as amended on January 19, 2010 and March 29, 2010 (the “Amended and Restated Certificate”), (ii) minute books relating to meetings and written actions of the Board of Directors and stockholders of the Company and stock records in our possession, and (iii) statements in the Opinion Certificate relating to the capitalization of the Company.

Company has represented to us that these records completely and accurately describe all of the Company’s issuances of shares of its capital stock, options, warrants, conversion privileges or other rights to purchase shares of its capital stock. Although we have no knowledge that the information as to outstanding stock, options, warrants, conversion privileges and other rights provided by the Company and reflected in paragraph (d) is incorrect, based on the examination referred to above, we are not in a position to verify its accuracy or completeness, other than to say that our records are not inconsistent with such information.

We note that the parties to the Stock Purchase Agreement have designated the laws of the State of Delaware as the laws governing the Stock Purchase Agreement. Our opinion in paragraph (e) below as to the validity, binding effect and enforceability of the Stock Purchase Agreement is premised upon the result that would be obtained if a Massachusetts court were to apply the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to the interpretation and enforcement of the Stock Purchase Agreement (notwithstanding the designation therein of the laws of the State of Delaware). We express no opinion as to whether the laws of any particular jurisdiction apply, and no opinion to the extent that the laws of any jurisdiction other than those identified above are applicable to the subject matter hereof.

In rendering the opinion in paragraph (g) below, the term “Contractual Obligations” shall mean only those contracts to which the Company is a party and which are expressly identified on Exhibit A hereto. We have further assumed that the governing law (exclusive of Massachusetts laws relating to conflicts of laws) of each such Contractual Obligation is Massachusetts. We have not, however, reviewed the covenants in the Contractual Obligations that contain financial ratios and other similar financial restrictions, and no opinion is provided with respect thereto. We also do not express any opinion on parol evidence bearing on interpretation or construction of such Contractual Obligations, or on any oral modifications to such Contractual Obligations made by the parties thereto.

In rendering the opinion in paragraph (g) relating to violations of United States federal, Massachusetts or Delaware corporate laws, rules or regulations applicable to the Company, such opinion is limited to such laws, rules or regulations that in our experience are typically applicable to a transaction of the nature contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement.

In rendering the opinion expressed in paragraphs (h), (i) and (j) below, we have assumed the accuracy of, and have relied upon, the Company’s representations to us that the Company has made no offer to sell the Shares by means of any general solicitation or publication of any advertisement therefor.

In connection with the general enforceability opinion set forth in paragraph (e), this opinion is qualified by, and we render no opinion with respect to, the following:

(i) We express no opinion as to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting the relief of debtors or

the rights and remedies of creditors generally, including without limitation the effect of statutory or other law regarding fraudulent conveyances, preferential transfers and equitable subordination;

(ii) Our opinions are qualified by the limitations imposed by general principles of equity upon the availability of equitable remedies for the enforcement of provisions of the Stock Purchase Agreement, and by the effect of judicial decisions which have held that certain provisions are unenforceable when their enforcement would violate the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, or would be commercially unreasonable, or where their breach is not material;

(iii) We express no opinion as to the effect of any Massachusetts law, United States federal or Delaware law or equitable principle which provides that a court may refuse to enforce, or may limit the application of, a contract or any clause thereof which the court finds to have been unconscionable at the time it was made or contrary to public policy;

(iv) We express no opinion as to the enforceability of provisions of the Stock Purchase Agreement expressly or by implication waiving broadly or vaguely stated rights or unknown future rights, or waiving rights granted by law where such waivers are against public policy;

(v) We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any provision of the Stock Purchase Agreement purporting to (a) waive rights to trial by jury, service of process or objections to the laying of venue or to forum in connection with any litigation arising out of or pertaining to the Stock Purchase Agreement, (b) exclude conflict of law principles under Massachusetts law, (c) establish particular courts as the forum for the adjudication of any controversy relating to the Stock Purchase Agreement, (d) establish the laws of any particular state or jurisdiction for the adjudication of any controversy relating to the Stock Purchase Agreement, (e) establish evidentiary standards or make determinations conclusive or (f) provide for arbitration of disputes;

(vi) We express no opinion as to the effect of judicial decisions, that may permit the introduction of extrinsic evidence to modify the terms or the interpretation of the Stock Purchase Agreement;

(vii) We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any provisions of the Stock Purchase Agreement providing that (a) rights or remedies are not exclusive, (b) rights or remedies may be exercised without notice, (c) every right or remedy is cumulative and may be exercised in addition to or with any other right or remedy, (d) the election of a particular remedy or remedies does not preclude recourse to one or more other remedies, (e) liquidated damages are to be paid upon the breach of the Stock Purchase Agreement or (f) the failure to exercise, or any delay in exercising, rights or remedies available under the Stock Purchase Agreement will not operate as a waiver of any such right or remedy;

(viii) We express no opinion as to the enforceability of the indemnification and contribution provisions in the Stock Purchase Agreement;

(ix) We note that a requirement that provisions of the Stock Purchase Agreement may only be waived in writing may not be binding or enforceable if an oral agreement has been created modifying any such provision or an implied agreement by trade practice or course of conduct has given rise to a waiver; and

(x) We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any provisions in the Stock Purchase Agreement concerning the voting of the Company’s capital stock.

In addition to the foregoing, the opinions expressed below are specifically subject to the following qualifications and assumptions:

(i) We express no opinion as to compliance with any federal or state antitrust statutes, rules or regulations, including, without limitation, the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976;

(iii) We express no opinion as to compliance with applicable antifraud statutes, rules or regulations of applicable state and federal laws concerning the issuance or sale of securities, including, without limitation, (a) the accuracy and completeness of the information provided by the Company to the Investors in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares and (b) the accuracy or fairness of the past, present or future fair market value of any securities;

(iv) We express no opinion as to whether the members of the Company’s Board of Directors have complied with their fiduciary duties in connection with the authorization and performance of the Stock Purchase Agreement; and

(v) We have assumed that the Stock Purchase Agreement, and the transactions contemplated thereby, was fair and reasonable to the Company at the time of their authorization by the Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders within the meaning of Section 144 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and except as set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement or the Disclosure Schedule thereto, we are of the opinion that:

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Certain Definitions. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings:

Approved Piggyback Shares” shall mean, in the case of the registration of shares of capital stock by the Company in connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s Common Stock, that number of Registrable Securities that the underwriter(s) determines may be included as part of such registered offering.

Commission” shall mean the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or any other federal agency at the time administering the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

Common Stock” shall mean (i) the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share, and (ii) any other securities into which or for which any of the securities described in clause (i) above may be converted or exchanged pursuant to a plan of recapitalization, reorganization, merger, sale of assets or otherwise.

Exchange Act” shall mean the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any similar successor federal statute, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, all as the same shall be in effect at the time.

Holder” shall mean any person owning or having the right to acquire Registrable Securities or any transferees thereof in accordance with Section 7 hereof; provided, however, that the Series 1 Holders and the MBI Group Holders shall not be deemed to be Holders for purposes of Section 3(a) or 3(b) hereof and the LRG Holders and the Strategic Investor shall not be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of Section 3(a) hereof.

Registrable Securities” shall mean (i) any shares of Common Stock now held or hereafter acquired by the Investors or the Series 1 Holders (including, in the case of Series 1 Holders, by the exercise of options), (ii) any shares of Common Stock now held or hereafter acquired by LCP IV or LCP V resulting from the exercise of warrants held by such entities, (iii) any shares of Common Stock issued to the MBI Group Holders pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreements (whether such shares of Common Stock are issued under the Share Purchase Agreements directly to the MBI Group Holders or to the Escrow Agent, as such term is defined in each Share Purchase Agreement), (iv) the shares of Common Stock or shares of any other securities issued and issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock, (v) any shares of Common Stock issued to the LRG Holders resulting from the exercise of warrants held by such entities or the conversion of debt owed to such entities, (vi) any shares of Common Stock issued to the Strategic Investor resulting from the exercise of warrants held by the Strategic Investor, the conversion of debt owed to the Strategic Investor and any other securities issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (vii) any other securities issued and issuable with respect to any such shares described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) above by way of a stock dividend or stock split or in connection with a combination of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or other reorganization (it being understood that for purposes of this Agreement, a Person will be deemed to be a holder of Registrable Securities whenever such Person has the right to then acquire or obtain from the Company any Registrable Securities, whether or not such acquisition has actually been effected); provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, “Registrable Securities” shall not at any time include any securities previously sold pursuant to a registered public offering or sold pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

 

93


Securities Act” shall mean the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any similar successor federal statute, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, all as the same shall be in effect at the time.

2. Piggyback Registrations. If at any time or times after the date hereof the Company shall seek to register any shares of its Common Stock under the Securities Act for sale to the public for its own account or on the account of others (except with respect to registration statements on Form S-4, S-8 or another form not available for registering the Registrable Securities for sale to the public), the Company will promptly give written notice thereof to all Holders. If within twenty (20) days after their receipt of such notice one or more Holders request the inclusion of some or all of the Registrable Securities owned by them in such registration, the Company will use its best efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of such Registrable Securities. In the case of the registration of shares of capital stock by the Company in connection with any underwritten public offering, if the underwriter(s) determines that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of Registrable Securities to be offered, subject to the following sentence, the Company shall not be required to register Registrable Securities of the Holders in excess of the amount, if any, of shares of the capital stock which the principal underwriter of such underwritten offering shall in good faith agree to include in such offering in addition to any amount to be registered for the account of the Company. In the case of the Company’s initial public offering of Common Stock, if any limitation of the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be registered by the Holders is required pursuant to this Section 2, the number of shares to be excluded shall be determined in the following sequence: (i) first, securities held by any Persons not having any contractual, incidental “piggyback” registration rights, (ii) second, securities held by any Persons (other than the Holders) having contractual, incidental “piggyback” rights pursuant to an agreement which is not this Agreement, (iii) third, Registrable Securities (other than the LRG Piggyback Shares) sought to be included by the Holders (other than the LRG Holders) as determined on a pro rata basis (based upon the respective holdings of Registrable Securities by such Holders) and (iv) fourth, the LRG Piggyback Shares. In the case of any registered offering other than the Company’s initial public offering of Common Stock, if any limitation of the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be registered by the Holders is required pursuant to this Section 2, the number of shares to be excluded shall be determined in the following sequence: (i) first, securities held by any Persons not having any contractual, incidental “piggyback” registration rights, (ii) second, securities held by any Persons (other than the Holders) having contractual, incidental “piggyback” rights pursuant to an agreement which is not this Agreement and (iii) third, Registrable Securities sought to be included by the Holders as determined on a pro rata basis (based upon the respective holdings of Registrable Securities by such Holders).

3. Required Registrations.

(a) Demand Registration. Upon the earlier of (i) July 10, 2006 or (ii) the date that is six (6) months after the initial public offering of Common Stock by the Company pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, on not more than two (2) occasions, the Holders of at least fifty percent (50%) of the Registrable Securities may request that the Company register under the Securities Act all or a portion of the Registrable Securities held by such requesting Holders having an aggregate value of at least $5,000,000 (based on the then current market price). A registration will not count as a requested registration under this

 

94


Section 3(a) until the registration statement relating to such registration has been declared effective by the Commission at the request of the requesting Holders and unless the requesting Holders are able to register and sell at least 66 2/3rds of the Registrable Securities requested by them to be included in such registration.

(b) Form S-3. After the Company’s initial public offering of Common Stock registered under the Securities Act, the Company shall use its best efforts to qualify and remain qualified to register securities on Form S-3 (or any successor form) under the Securities Act. So long as the Company is qualified to register securities on Form S-3 (or any successor form), the Holders shall have the right to request registration on Form S-3 (or any successor form) for the Registrable Securities held by such requesting Holders having an aggregate value of at least $500,000 (based on the then current market price), including registrations for the sale of such Registrable Securities on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. Such requests shall be in writing and shall state the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be disposed of and the intended method of disposition of such shares by such requesting Holders. Upon receipt of a request for registration under this Section 3(b), the Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to effect a registration statement pursuant to this Section 3(b) as soon as practicable, but in any event no longer than thirty (30) days following receipt of such request.

(c) Registration Requirements. Following a request pursuant to Section 3(a) or (b) above, the Company will notify all of the other Holders and such Holders shall then have twenty (20) days to notify the Company of their desire to participate in the registration. Thereupon, the Company will use its best efforts to cause such of the Registrable Securities as may be requested by such Holders to be registered under the Securities Act in accordance with the terms of this Section 3. If the request for registration contemplates an underwritten public offering, the Company shall state such in the written notice and in such event the right of any Person to participate in such registration shall be conditioned upon their participation in such underwritten public offering and the inclusion of their securities in the underwritten public offering to the extent provided herein.

(d) Underwritten Offering. If a requested registration under this Section 3 involves an underwritten public offering and the managing underwriter of such offering determines in good faith that the number of securities sought to be offered should be limited due to market conditions, then the number of securities to be included in such underwritten public offering shall be reduced to a number deemed satisfactory by such managing underwriter, provided that the shares to be excluded shall be determined in the following sequence: (i) first, securities held by any Persons not having any contractual, incidental “piggyback” registration rights to include such securities in the registration statement, (ii) second, securities held by any other Persons (other than the Holders) having contractual, incidental “piggyback” rights to include such securities in the registration statement and (iii) third, Registrable Securities sought to be included in such registration. If there is a reduction of the number of Registrable Securities pursuant to clause (iii), such reduction shall be made on a pro rata basis (based upon the respective holdings of Registrable Securities held by such Holders). With respect to a request for registration pursuant to Section 3(a) or (b) which is for an underwritten public offering, the managing underwriter shall be chosen by a majority-in-interest of the Holders requesting such registration subject to the approval of the Company, which approval will not be unreasonably

 

95


withheld. If the managing underwriter has not limited the number of Registrable Securities or other securities to be underwritten, the Company may include securities for its own account in such registration if the managing underwriter so agrees and if the number of Registrable Securities and other securities which would otherwise have been included in such registration and underwriting will not thereby be limited.

(e) Postponement. The Company may postpone the filing of any registration statement required hereunder for a reasonable period of time, not to exceed ninety (90) days in the aggregate during any twelve-month period, if the Company’s Board of Directors determines reasonably and in good faith it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such registration to be effected at such time. The Company shall not be required to cause a registration statement requested pursuant to this Section 3 to become effective prior to one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s equity securities and ninety (90) days following the effective date of any other registration statement initiated by the Company, if the request for registration has been received by the Company subsequent to the giving of written notice by the Company, made in good faith, to Holders entitled to request demand registrations under this Section 3 that the Company is commencing to prepare a Company-initiated registration statement (other than a registration effected solely to implement an employee benefit plan or a transaction to which Rule 145, or any other similar rule under the Securities Act, is applicable); provided, however, that the Company shall use its best efforts to achieve such effectiveness promptly following such period. The Company shall provide written notice to the Holders of Registrable Securities proposed to be included in such registration of (A) any postponement or withdrawal of the filing pursuant to this subsection (iii), (B) the Company’s decision to file such registration statement following such withdrawal or postponement and (C) the effectiveness of such registration statement.

4. Further Obligations of the Company. Whenever the Company is required hereunder to register any Registrable Securities, it agrees that it shall also do the following:

(a) Pay all expenses of such registrations and offerings (exclusive of underwriting discounts and commissions) and the reasonable fees and expenses of not more than one independent counsel for the Holders in connection with any registrations pursuant to Sections 2 or 3 hereof;

(b) Use its best efforts to diligently prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective and prepare and file such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective until the earlier of (i) the date which is ninety (90) days following the effectiveness of such registration statement and (ii) the date on which the Holder or Holders have completed the distribution described in the registration statement relating thereto, and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the sale of securities covered by such registration statement for such period;

(c) Furnish to each selling Holder such copies of each preliminary and final prospectus and such other documents as such Holder may reasonably request to facilitate the public offering of its Registrable Securities;

 

96


(d) Enter into and perform its obligations under any reasonable underwriting agreement required by the proposed underwriter, if any, in such form and containing such terms as are customary; provided, however, that no Holder shall be required to make any representations or warranties other than with respect to its title to the Registrable Securities and with respect to any written information provided by the Holder to the Company;

(e) Use its best efforts to register or qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under the securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions as any selling Holder may reasonably request; provided, that, the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction wherein it is not so qualified;

(f) Immediately notify each selling Holder, at any time when a prospectus relating to his, her or its Registrable Securities is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which such prospectus contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and at the request of any such selling Holder, prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

(g) Cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange or quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or quoted (or if similar securities issued by the Company are not yet listed or quoted, then on such exchange or quotation system as the Company shall determine);

(h) Make available to each selling Holder, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to a registration statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent or representative retained by any such selling Holder or underwriter (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information requested by any such Inspector in connection with such registration statement; provided, however, that such Inspector shall agree to hold in confidence and trust all information so provided;.

(i) Otherwise use its best efforts to comply with the securities laws of the United States and other applicable jurisdictions and all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and comparable governmental agencies in other applicable jurisdictions and make generally available to its stockholders, in each case as soon as practicable, but not later than 45 days after the close of the period covered thereby, an earnings statement of the Company which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act;

(j) In the case of an underwritten public offering, furnish to each prospective selling Holder a signed counterpart, addressed to the prospective selling Holder, of (A) an opinion of counsel for the Company dated the effective date of the registration statement, and (B)

 

97


provided such perspective selling Holder complies with the requests of the Company’s independent public accountants under the Statement on Auditing Standards No. 72, “Letters for Underwriters and Certain Other Requesting Parties” or any other successor or applicable accounting literature, a “comfort” letter signed by the independent public accountants who have certified the Company’s financial statements included in the registration statement, covering substantially the same matters with respect to the registration statement (and the prospectus included therein) and (in the case of the accountants’ letter) with respect to events subsequent to the date of the financial statements, as customarily covered (at the time of such registration) in opinions of counsel and in accountants’ letters delivered to underwriters in underwritten public offerings of securities; and

(k) Otherwise cooperate with the underwriter or underwriters, the Commission and other regulatory agencies and take all actions and execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered all documents necessary to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities hereunder.

5. Indemnification; Contribution.

(a) Incident to any registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless to the fullest extent permitted by law each underwriter, each Holder who offers or sells any such Registrable Securities in connection with such registration statement (including its partners (including partners of partners and stockholders of any such partners) and directors, officers, employees, representatives, members and agents of any of them (a “Selling Holder”), and each Person who controls any of them within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (a “Controlling Person”), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses and liabilities, joint or several (including any investigation, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted, as the same are incurred), to which they, or any of them, may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of or are based on (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement (including any related preliminary or definitive prospectus, or any amendment or supplement to such registration statement or prospectus), (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state in such document a material fact required to be stated in it or necessary to make the statements in it not misleading or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities laws or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities laws; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable to the extent that such loss, claim, damage, expense or liability arises from and is based on an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance on and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such underwriter, Selling Holder or Controlling Person expressly for use in such registration statement. With respect to such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission in the information furnished in writing to the Company by such Selling Holder expressly for use in such registration statement, such Selling Holder will indemnify and hold harmless each underwriter, the Company (including its directors, officers, employees, representatives, members and agents), each other Holder

 

98


(including its partners (including partners of partners and stockholders of such partners) and directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents of any of them, and each Person who controls any of them within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses and liabilities, joint or several, to which they, or any of them, may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise to the same extent provided in the immediately preceding sentence. In no event, however, shall the liability of a Selling Holder for indemnification under this Section 5(a) exceed the net proceeds received by such Selling Holder from its sale of Registrable Securities under such registration statement.

(b) If the indemnification provided for in Section 5(a) above for any reason is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under this Section 5, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, the Selling Holders and the underwriters from the offering of the Registrable Securities and (ii) the relative fault of the Company, the Selling Holders and the underwriters in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that in the event of a registration statement filed in response to a demand under Section 3(a) and in which the Company does not register any shares of capital stock, the proportion of contribution by the Company, the Selling Holders and the underwriters shall in all cases be governed solely by clause (ii) above. The relative benefits received by the Company, the Selling Holders and the underwriters shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions that the net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the Selling Holders and the underwriting discount received by the underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the applicable prospectus, bear to the aggregate public offering price of the securities covered by such registration statement. The relative fault of the Company, the Selling Holders and the underwriters shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, the Selling Holders or the underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company and the Selling Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5(b) were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. In no event, however, shall a Selling Holder be required to contribute any amount under this Section 5(b) in excess of the net proceeds received by such Selling Holder from its sale of Registrable Securities under such registration statement. No person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not found guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

99


(c) The amount paid by an indemnifying party or payable to an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in this Section 5 shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim, payable as the same are incurred. The indemnification and contribution provided for in this Section 5 will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified parties or any officer, director, employee, agent or controlling person of the indemnified parties. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall enter into a consent of entry of any judgment or enter into a settlement without the consent of the indemnified party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

6. Rule 144 and Rule 144A Requirement. In the event that the Company becomes subject to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall use its best efforts to take all action as may be required as a condition to the availability of Rule 144 or Rule 144A under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar exemptive rules hereafter in effect). The Company shall furnish to any Holder, within 15 days of a written request, a written statement executed by the Company as to the steps it has taken to comply with the current public information requirement of Rule 144 or Rule 144A or such successor rules.

7. Transferability of Registration Rights. The registration rights set forth in this Agreement are transferable to any transferee of Registrable Securities who receives any shares of Registrable Securities. Each subsequent holder of Registrable Securities must consent in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement in order to acquire the rights granted pursuant to this Agreement.

8. Rights Which May Be Granted to Subsequent Investors. Other than transferees of Registrable Securities under Section 7 hereof, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Investors holding at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock (voting together as a single class and on an as-converted basis), grant any other registration rights to any third parties.

9. Miscellaneous.

(a) Amendments. For the purposes of this Agreement and all agreements executed pursuant hereto, no course of dealing between or among any of the parties hereto and no delay on the part of any party hereto in exercising any rights hereunder or thereunder shall operate as a waiver of the rights hereof and thereof. This Agreement may not be amended or modified or any provision hereof waived without the joint written consent of the Company and the Investors holding at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the Registrable Securities attributable to the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock; provided, however, that (i) in the event that any amendment, modification or waiver under this Agreement treats the Series 1 Holders in an adverse manner that is different from the Investors vis a vis their rights hereunder, such amendment, modification or waiver shall also require the written consent of Series 1 Holders holding at least a majority of the Registrable Securities attributable to the conversion of the Series 1 Preferred Stock, (ii) in the event that any amendment, modification or waiver under this Agreement treats the MBI Group Holders in an

 

100


adverse manner that is different from the Investors vis a vis their rights hereunder, such amendment, modification or waiver shall also require the written consent of the MBI Group Holders holding at least a majority of the Registrable Securities held by the MBI Group Holders, (iii) in the event that any amendment, modification or waiver under this Agreement treats the LRG Holders in an adverse manner that is different from the Investors vis a vis their rights hereunder, such amendment, modification or waiver shall also require the written consent of the LRG Holders holding at least a majority of the Registrable Securities held by the LRG Holders, (iv) in the event that any amendment, modification or waiver under this Agreement treats the Strategic Investor in an adverse manner that is different from the Investors vis a vis their rights hereunder, such amendment, modification or waiver shall also require the written consent of the Strategic Investor and (v) notice of any amendment, modification or waiver under this Agreement shall be delivered to the Series 1 Representatives and the MBI Group Holder Representative (each in the manner set forth below).

(b) Notices and Demands. Any notice or demand which, by any provision of this Agreement or any agreement, document or instrument executed pursuant hereto or thereto, except as otherwise provided therein, is required or provided to be given shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given or served and received for all purposes when delivered by hand, telecopy, telex or other method of facsimile or five (5) days after being sent by certified or registered mail, postage and charges prepaid, return receipt requested, or two (2) days after being sent by overnight delivery providing receipt of delivery, provided, however, that any such notice or demand shall be provided to Series 1 Holders and/or MBI Group Holders only by way of reputable air courier service, and shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given or served and received for all purposes three (3) days after being sent.

(c) Dispute Resolution.

(i) All disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other agreement executed and delivered pursuant to this Agreement or the negotiation, validity or performance hereof and thereof or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby that are not resolved by mutual agreement shall be resolved solely and exclusively by binding arbitration to be conducted before the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). If AAA ceases operation, then the parties shall select a comparable organization that provides qualified arbitration services. The arbitration shall be held in Boston, Massachusetts before a single arbitrator and shall be conducted in accordance with the rules and regulations promulgated by AAA unless specifically modified herein.

The parties covenant and agree that the arbitration hearing shall commence within ninety (90) days of the date on which a written demand for arbitration is filed by any party hereto. In connection with the arbitration proceeding, the arbitrator shall have the power to order the production of documents by each party and any third-party witnesses. In addition, each party may take up to three depositions as of right, and the arbitrator may in his or her discretion allow additional depositions upon good cause shown by the moving party. However, the arbitrator shall not have the power to order the answering of interrogatories or the response to requests for admission. In connection with any arbitration, each party shall provide to the other, no later than seven (7) business days before the date of the arbitration hearing, the identity of all persons that may testify at the arbitration and a copy of all documents that may be introduced at the arbitration hearing or considered or used by a party’s witness or expert. The arbitrator’s decision and award shall be made and delivered within three (3) months of the selection of the arbitrator.

 

102


The arbitrator’s decision shall set forth a reasoned basis for any finding of liability or award of damages. The arbitrator shall not have power to award damages in excess of actual compensatory damages and shall not multiply actual damages or award punitive damages or any other damages that are specifically excluded under this Agreement, and each party hereby irrevocably waives any claim to such damages.

The parties covenant and agree that they will participate in the arbitration in good faith and that they will share equally its costs, except as otherwise provided herein. The arbitrator may in his or her discretion assess costs and expenses (including the reasonable legal fees and expenses of the prevailing party) whether claimant or respondent against any party to a proceeding. Any party failing or refusing to comply with an order of the arbitrators shall be liable for costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the other party in enforcing the award. Nothing in this Section 9(c) shall prohibit any party from proceeding in court without prior arbitration for the limited purpose of seeking a temporary or permanent injunction to avoid immediate and irreparable harm. The provisions of this Section 9(c) shall be enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Unless otherwise ordered, the parties shall bear their own attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses in connection with the arbitration. The parties will share equally in the fees and expenses charged by AAA.

(ii) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the exclusive use of AAA to resolve all disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other agreement executed and delivered pursuant to this Agreement or the negotiation, validity or performance hereof and thereof or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and further consents to the jurisdiction of the courts of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts for the purposes of enforcing the arbitration provisions of Section 9(c)(i) of this Agreement. Each party further irrevocably waives any objection to proceeding before AAA based upon lack of personal jurisdiction or to the laying of venue and further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to make a claim in any court that arbitration before AAA has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each of the parties hereto hereby consents to service of process by registered mail at the address to which notices are to be given.

SECTION 2

RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER; RIGHTS OF FIRST REFUSAL; CO-SALE RIGHTS

Each Stockholder agrees that he, she or it will not Transfer all or any portion of the shares of capital stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company now owned or hereafter acquired by him, her or it, except in connection with, and strictly in compliance with the conditions of, any of the following:

(a) Transfers effected pursuant to Sections 2.2 and 2.3 hereof, in each case made strictly in accordance with the procedures set forth therein;


(b) Transfers by a Stockholder to his or her spouse, children or grandchildren or to a trust of which he or she is the settlor and a trustee for the benefit of such Person or his or her spouse, children or grandchildren, to partnerships in which such family members are the only partners, or to limited liability companies in which such family members are the only members, provided that the Transferee shall have executed a Joinder Agreement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto; and

(c) Transfers upon the death of a Stockholder to his or her heirs, executors or administrators or to a trust under his or her will or Transfers between such Person and his or her guardian or conservator, provided that the Transferee shall have executed a Joinder Agreement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto.

Any permitted Transferee described in the preceding clauses (b) or (c) shall be referred to herein as a “Permitted Transferee.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any failure to execute a Joinder Agreement as contemplated hereby, Permitted Transferees shall take any shares so Transferred subject to all provisions of this Agreement as if such shares were still held by the transferor, whether or not they so agree with the transferor and/or the Company. Without limitation of the foregoing, in connection with any otherwise permitted Transfer of shares of capital stock that are restricted shares and are subject to any stock restriction agreement, any Transferee of any such shares shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of any such stock restriction or similar agreement, including, without limitation, any repurchase or similar right contained therein.

2.2 Right of First Refusal. In the event that any Stockholder or any of their Permitted Transferees (a “Transferring Stockholder”) proposes to Transfer all or any portion of the shares of capital stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for capital stock of the Company held by such Person (a “Proposed Transaction”) to a Person other than a Permitted Transferee (a “Proposed Transferee”), such Transferring Stockholder may, subject to the provisions of Section 2.3 hereof, Transfer such shares pursuant to and in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 2.2:

(a) Offer Notice. Such Transferring Stockholder shall deliver written notice (the “Offer Notice”) of its desire to consummate the Proposed Transaction to the Company, with a copy to the Investors, and shall otherwise comply with the provisions of this Section 2.2 and, if applicable, Section 2.3. The Offer Notice shall specify (i) the number of shares and type of securities of the Transferring Stockholder subject to the Proposed Transaction (the “Offered Shares”), (ii) the consideration per share to be paid for the Offered Shares (the “Offer Price”), (iii) the identities of the Proposed Transferees and (iv) all other material terms and conditions of the Proposed Transaction. In the event that the Offer Price set forth in the Offer Notice is stated in consideration other than cash or cash equivalents, the Board of Directors of the Company with the agreement of the Investors may determine the fair market value of such consideration, reasonably and in good faith, and the Company or Investors may exercise their Rights of First Refusal (as defined below) by payment of such fair market value in cash or cash equivalents. The Transferring Stockholder’s Offer Notice shall constitute an irrevocable offer to sell all such shares to the Company and the Investors on the basis described below at a purchase price equal to the price contained in, and on the same terms as set forth in the Offer Notice.


(b) Company Right of First Refusal. For a period of ten (10) business days after the giving of the Offer Notice pursuant to Section 2.2(a) (the “Company Option Period”), the Company shall have the right (the “Company Right of First Refusal”) to purchase any or all of the Offered Shares at a purchase price equal to the Offer Price and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice. The right of the Company to purchase any or all of the Offered Shares under this Section 2.2(b) shall be exercisable by delivering written notice of the exercise thereof prior to the expiration of the Company Option Period to the Transferring Stockholder, with a copy to the Investors, which notice shall state the number of Offered Shares proposed to be purchased by the Company. The failure of the Company to respond within the Company Option Period shall be deemed to be a waiver of the Company’s rights under this Section 2.2(b), provided that the Company may waive its rights under this Section 2.2(b) prior to the expiration of the Company Option Period by giving written notice to the Transferring Stockholder, with a copy to the Investors. The closing for any purchase of shares by the Company hereunder shall take place within ten (10) business days after the expiration of the Company Option Period.

(c) Investor Right of First Refusal. If the Company does not elect to purchase all of the Offered Shares pursuant to Section 2.2(b), then for a period of fifteen (15) business days (the “Investor Option Period”) after the earlier to occur of (a) the expiration of the Company Option Period pursuant to Section 2.2(b) or (b) the date upon which the Transferring Shareholder shall have received written notice from the Company of its exercise of the Company Right of First Refusal pursuant to Section 2.2(b) or its waiver thereof, each of the Investors shall have the right (the “Investor Right of First Refusal” and, together with the “Company Right of First Refusal”, the “Rights of First Refusal”) to accept the offer to purchase any or all of the remaining Offered Shares at a purchase price equal to the Offer Price and upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer Notice. Each Investor shall then have the right to accept the offer to purchase up to that number of remaining Offered Shares as shall be equal to the product obtained by multiplying (X) the total number of remaining Offered Shares by (Y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be held by such Investor on the date of the Offer Notice (as determined in accordance with Section 1.2 hereof) and the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock then deemed to be held by all of the Investors on the date of the Offer Notice (as determined in accordance with Section 1.2 hereof), subject to increase as hereinafter provided. The number of shares that each such Investor is entitled to purchase under this Section 2.2 shall be referred to as a “ROFR Fraction.” In the event any such Investor does not wish to purchase its ROFR Fraction, then all the other Investors who so elect shall have the right to accept the offer to purchase, on a pro rata basis with all other Investors who so elect (as hereinafter provided), any ROFR Fraction not purchased by such Investor. Each Investor shall have the right to accept the Proposed Transaction by giving notice of such acceptance to the Transferring Stockholder within the Investor Option Period, which notice shall indicate the maximum number of shares subject thereto which such Investor is willing to purchase in the event fewer than all the Investors elect to purchase their ROFR Fractions. The Transferring Stockholder shall notify the Investors promptly following any lapse of the Right of First Refusal without acceptance thereof or any rejection of the Right of First Refusal.

The closing for any purchase of shares by the Investors hereunder shall take place within ten (10) business days after the expiration of the Investor Option Period.


(d) Sale to Proposed Transferee. In the event that the Company and/or the Investors do not elect to exercise their respective Rights of First Refusal with respect to all of the Offered Shares, the Transferring Stockholder may consummate the sale of the remaining Offered Shares to the Proposed Transferee on the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice, subject to the provisions of Section 2.3. If the Transferring Stockholder’s Transfer to the Proposed Transferee is not consummated in accordance with the terms of the Proposed Transaction within the later of (i) ninety (90) days after the expiration of the later of the Investor Right of First Refusal and the Co-Sale Option set forth in Section 2.3, if applicable, and (ii) the satisfaction of all governmental approval or filing requirements, the Proposed Transaction shall be deemed to lapse, and any Transfers of shares pursuant to such Proposed Transaction shall be deemed to be in violation of the provisions of this Agreement unless the Company and the Investors are once again afforded the Rights of First Refusal provided for herein with respect to such Proposed Transaction.

2.3 Co-Sale Option. In the event that any Transferring Stockholder proposes to Transfer all or any portion of the Offered Shares in a Proposed Transaction, and the Rights of First Refusal under Section 2.2 above are not exercised with respect to all of the Offered Shares proposed to be sold, such Transferring Stockholder may Transfer such shares only pursuant to and in accordance with the following provisions of this Section 2.3:

(a) Each Investor who has chosen not to exercise its Right of First Refusal pursuant to Section 2.2 above and the Founder shall have the right to participate in the Proposed Transaction on the terms and conditions herein stated (the “Co-Sale Option”), which right shall be exercisable upon written notice (the “Acceptance Notice”) to the Transferring Stockholder within ten (10) business days after receipt by the Investors and the Founder of a written notice (“Co-Sale Notice”) from the Transferring Stockholder that the Investors have not elected to exercise their Right of First Refusal with respect to such Offered Shares. The Acceptance Notice shall indicate the maximum number of shares each Investor or the Founder (as applicable) wishes to sell (including the number of shares it would sell if one or more Investors or the Founder does not elect to participate in the sale) on the terms and conditions stated in the Offer Notice.

(b) Each such Investor who has chosen not to exercise its Right of First Refusal pursuant to Section 2.2 and the Founder shall have the right to sell a portion of its shares pursuant to the Proposed Transaction which is equal to or less than the product obtained by multiplying (i) the total number of Offered Shares to be sold to a Proposed Transferee pursuant to the Proposed Transaction by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be held by such Investor or such Founder (as applicable) on the date of the Co-Sale Notice (as determined in accordance with Section 1.2 hereof) and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be held collectively by the Transferring Stockholder, all Investors who have chosen not to exercise their Rights of First Refusal pursuant to Section 2.2 and the Founder on the date of the Co-Sale Notice (as determined in accordance with Section 1.2 hereof). To the extent one or more of such Investors or the Founder elects not to exercise its Co-Sale Option, then the rights of the other such Investors and the Founder (in each case, who exercise its Co-Sale Option) to sell shares shall be increased proportionately based on their relative holdings by the full amount of shares which the non-electing Persons were entitled to sell pursuant to this Section 2.3.


(c) Within ten (10) business days after the date by which the Investors and/or the Founder (as applicable) were required to notify the Transferring Stockholder of their intent to exercise the Co-Sale Option, the Transferring Stockholder shall notify each participating Investor and Founder of the number of shares held by such Investor or Founder that will be included in the sale and the date on which the Proposed Transaction will be consummated, which shall be no later than the later of (i) thirty (30) days after the date by which the Investors and/or the Founder (as applicable) were required to notify the Transferring Stockholder of its intent to exercise the Co-Sale Option and (ii) the satisfaction of governmental approval or filing requirements, if any.

(d) Any Investor or the Founder may effect its participation in any Proposed Transaction hereunder by delivery to the Proposed Transferee or to the Transferring Stockholder for delivery to the Proposed Transferee of one or more instruments or certificates properly endorsed for Transfer representing the shares it elects to sell therein, provided that no such Investor or Founder shall be required to make any representations or warranties or provide any indemnities in connection therewith other than with respect to its ownership of the shares being conveyed. At the time of consummation of the Proposed Transaction, the Proposed Transferee shall remit directly to each such Investor and Founder that portion of the sale proceeds to which such Investor or Founder (as applicable) is entitled by reason of its participation therein (less any adjustments due to the conversion of any convertible securities or the exercise of any exercisable securities).

(e) Promptly after such sale, the Transferring Stockholder shall notify each participating Investor and Founder of the consummation thereof and shall furnish such evidence of the completion and date of completion of such sale and of the terms thereof as may reasonably be requested by any such Investor or Founder. So long as the Proposed Transferee is neither a party nor an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement, such Proposed Transferee shall take the shares so Transferred free and clear of any further restrictions of this Section 2. In the event that the Proposed Transaction is not consummated within the period required by subparagraph (c) hereof or the Proposed Transferee fails timely to remit to each such Investor and Founder its portion of the sale proceeds, the Proposed Transaction shall be deemed to lapse, and any Transfers of shares pursuant to such Proposed Transaction shall be deemed to be in violation of the provisions of this Agreement unless the Transferring Stockholder once again complies with the provisions of Sections 2.2 and 2.3 hereof with respect to such Proposed Transaction.

2.4 Sales to Competitors. Each Stockholder and Investor hereby agrees not to directly or indirectly Transfer any shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company or options in respect to any thereof to any Person whose activities, products or services are competitive with activities, products or services of the Company as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors as of the date of the proposed Transfer (provided that the foregoing shall not restrict (i) public sales registered under the Securities Act or pursuant to Rule 144 thereunder unless the relevant Transferor has knowledge that the buyer or buyers are such competitors or (ii) Transfers of an Investor to an Affiliate of such Investor). The Company may impose stop transfer instructions with its transfer agent in order to enforce the foregoing covenants.

2.5 Prohibited Transfers. If any Transfer is made or attempted contrary to the provisions of this Agreement, such purported Transfer shall be void ab initio; the Company, the Investors and the Stockholders shall have in addition to any other legal or equitable remedies


which they may have the right to enforce the provisions of this Agreement by actions for specific performance (to the extent permitted by law); and the Company shall have the right to refuse to recognize any Transferee as one of its stockholders for any purpose.

2.6 Assignment of Rights. The Investors shall have the right to assign its rights under this Section 2 to a Transferee who receives any shares of Preferred Stock, provided that such Transferee must consent in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Section 2 to acquire the rights granted hereunder.

For purposes of this Section 3.1, each Investor’s “Pro Rata Allotment” of securities shall be based on the ratio which the shares of Common Stock held by such Investor (as determined in accordance with Section 1.2 hereof) bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the date of the Preemptive Rights Notice (determined on a fully-diluted and an as-converted basis).

The rights of the Investors set forth in this Section 3 are transferable to each Transferee who receives any shares of Preferred Stock, provided that such Transferee must consent in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Section 3 in order to acquire the rights granted hereunder.

The parties covenant and agree that they will participate in the arbitration in good faith and that they will share equally its costs, except as otherwise provided herein. The arbitrator may in his or her discretion assess costs and expenses (including the reasonable legal fees and expenses of the prevailing party whether claimant or respondent) against any party to a proceeding. Any party failing or refusing to comply with an order of the arbitrators shall be liable for costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the other party in enforcing the award. Nothing in this Section 5.5 shall prohibit any party from proceeding in court without prior arbitration for the limited purpose of seeking a temporary or permanent injunction to avoid immediate and irreparable harm. The provisions of this Section 5.5 shall be enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Unless otherwise ordered, the parties shall bear their own attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses in connection with the arbitration. The parties will share equally in the fees and expenses charged by AAA.

(b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the exclusive use of AAA to resolve all disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other agreement executed and delivered pursuant to this Agreement or the negotiation, validity or performance hereof and thereof or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and further consents to the jurisdiction of the courts of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts for the purposes of enforcing the arbitration provisions of Section 5.5(a) of this Agreement. Each party further irrevocably waives any objection to proceeding before AAA based upon lack of personal jurisdiction or to the laying of venue and further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to make a claim in any court that arbitration before AAA has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each of the parties hereto hereby consents to service of process by registered mail at the address to which notices are to be given. Each of the parties hereto agrees that its or his submission to jurisdiction and its or his consent to service of process by mail is made for the express benefit of the other parties hereto.

5.6 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed prohibited or invalid under such applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, and such prohibition or invalidity shall not invalidate the remainder of such provision or the other provisions of this Agreement.

Exhibit F-1

Form of Employee Proprietary Information, Developments and Non-Competition Agreement


GLASSHOUSE TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

Employee Agreement

In consideration of my employment or continued employment, as the case may be, by Glass House Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), and the grant of options to purchase shares of common stock, par value $.001 (“Common Stock”), of the Company, I, the undersigned employee, hereby agree with the Company as follows:

1. Proprietary Information.

(a) I understand that the Company possesses and will continue to possess information that has been or will be created, discovered, developed or otherwise become known to the Company (including, without limitation, information created, discovered, developed or made known to me during the period of my employment by the Company to be used in the actual or anticipated business of the Company) or in which property rights have been or will be assigned or otherwise conveyed to the Company, which information has commercial value in the business in which the Company is engaged and is treated by the Company as confidential or proprietary. All such information is hereafter called “Proprietary Information.” By way of illustration, but not limitation, Proprietary Information includes processes, formulas, data, computer programs, software and documentation, know-how, improvements, discoveries, developments, designs, algorithms, inventions, techniques, strategies, new products, marketing plans, forecasts, unpublished financial statements, business forms, contract forms, report formats, budgets, projections, licenses, prices, costs, customer, client and supplier lists and employee information and any other information of a similar nature not available to the public, whether oral or written, in drawings or in machine-readable form, and whether or not expressly marked “Confidential” or “Proprietary.” I acknowledge that the development and acquisition of the Proprietary Information are the result of great effort and expense on the part of the Company and are critical to the success and survival of the Company.

(b) All Proprietary Information shall be the sole property of the Company, and the Company shall be the sole owner of all patents, copyrights and other rights related thereto. I hereby assign to the Company any rights I may have or acquire in such Proprietary Information. At all times, both during my employment by the Company and after its termination for whatever reason, I will keep in strictest confidence and trust all Proprietary Information, and I will not use or disclose any Proprietary Information without the prior written consent of the Company, except as may be necessary in the ordinary course of performing my duties as an employee of the Company. In the event of the termination of my employment by me or by the Company for any reason or upon three (3) business days after written request by the Company, I will deliver to the Company all documents, notes, drawings, specifications, data, and other materials of any nature pertaining to my work with the Company and/or containing Proprietary Information, and I will not take with me or retain any of the foregoing, any reproduction of any of the foregoing, or any Proprietary Information that is embodied in a tangible medium of expression. For purposes of the third and fourth sentence of this Section 1(b), Proprietary Information shall include confidential or proprietary information the Company has received and may in the future receive from third parties, which is subject to the Company’s obligation to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes.

2. Developments, Etc.

(a) I will promptly disclose to the Company (or any persons designated by it) all processes, formulas, data, computer programs, software and documentation, know-how, improvements, discoveries, developments, designs, algorithms, inventions, techniques, strategies and new products, whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar statutes, made or conceived or reduced to practice or learned by me, either alone or jointly with others, during the period of my employment that are related to or useful in the actual or anticipated business of the Company, result from tasks assigned to me by the Company, or result from the use of premises owned, leased or contracted for by the Company (all of the foregoing are hereinafter referred to as “Developments”). To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Developments will be deemed work made for hire. I will also promptly disclose to the Company, and the Company hereby agrees to receive all such disclosures in confidence, all other processes, formulas, data,


computer programs, software and documentation, know-how, improvements, discoveries, developments, designs, algorithms, inventions, techniques, strategies and new products, whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar statues, made or conceived or reduced to practice or learned by me, either alone or jointly with others, during the period of my employment for the purpose of determining whether they constitute Developments. The provisions of this Section 2 will apply to all Developments which are conceived or developed during the term of my employment with the Company, whether or not further development or reduction to practice may take place after termination of my employment.

(b) I agree that all Developments shall be the sole property of the Company, and the Company shall be the sole owner of all patents, copyrights and other rights in connection therewith. I hereby assign to the Company any rights I may have or acquire in such Developments. I further agree as to all such Developments to assist the Company in every proper way (but at the Company’s expense) to obtain and from time to time enforce patents, copyrights and other rights and protections relating to said Developments in any and all countries, and to that end I will execute all documents for use in applying for and obtaining such patents, copyrights and other rights and protections and enforcing such Developments, as the Company may desire, together with any assignments thereof to the Company or persons designated by it. My obligation to assist the Company in obtaining and enforcing patents, copyrights and other rights and protections relating to such Developments in any and all countries shall continue beyond the termination of my employment, but the Company shall compensate me at a reasonable rate after my termination for time actually spent by me at the Company’s request on such assistance.

3. Former Employment. I represent that my performance of all the terms of this Agreement and as an employee of the Company does not and will not breach any agreement to keep in confidence proprietary information acquired by me in confidence or in trust prior to my employment by the Company. I have not entered into, and I agree I will not enter into, any agreement either written or oral in conflict herewith. I represent, as part of the consideration for the offer of employment extended to me by the Company and of my employment or continued employment (as the case may be) by the Company, and the grant of options to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company that I have not brought and will not bring with me to the Company for use in the performance of any of my responsibilities for the Company any materials or documents of a former employer that are not generally available to the public, unless I have obtained express written authorization from the former employer for their possession and use. I also understand that, in my employment with the Company, I am not to breach any obligation of confidentiality that I have to former employers, and I agree that I shall fulfill all such obligations during my employment with the Company.

4. Other Employment; Extent of Service. I agree that during the period of my employment by the Company I will not, without the Company’s prior express written consent, engage in any employment or business other than for the Company. During the term of my employment, I agree to use my best efforts in, and shall devote substantially all of my working time, attention, skill and energies to, the advancement of the interests of the Company and the performance of my duties and responsibilities in connection with my employment with the Company.

5. Non-Solicitation. During the period of my employment with the Company and for one (1) year following the termination of my employment for any reason, I agree that I will not, either on my own behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity, directly or indirectly, (i) hire, solicit, or encourage to leave the employ of the Company any person who is or was an employee of the Company at any time during my employment with the Company, or (ii) solicit, entice away or divert all or part of the business of any person or entity who is then a client or customer of the Company or who was a client or customer of the Company at the time of my employment, or of any potential client or customer of the Company of which I had knowledge during my employment by the Company. I agree that client or customer lists, business contracts and related items are the property of the Company and are considered Proprietary Information hereunder. The restrictions described herein shall apply to my activities anywhere in the United States.

6. Injunctive Relief. I acknowledge and agree that the extent of damage to the Company in the event of a breach by me of any of the covenants contained in this Agreement would be difficult or impossible to ascertain and that there would be no adequate remedy at law available to the Company in the


event of such breach. Consequently, I agree that, in the event of such breach, the Company shall be entitled to enforce any or all of the covenants contained in this Agreement by injunctive or other equitable relief in addition to receiving damages or other relief to which the Company may be entitled.

7. Enforcement. If any portion of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder shall be enforceable to the maximum extent possible.

8. Binding Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon me, my heirs, executors, administrators and assigns.

9. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted under the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its choice of laws principles. I agree that the state or federal courts located within The Commonwealth of Massachusetts shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of this Agreement, and I hereby agree to submit to personal jurisdiction of such courts.

10. No Contract of Employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a contract of employment between myself and the Company or as a commitment on the part of the Company to retain me in any capacity for any period of time.

11. Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding between the Company and me relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all previous and contemporaneous written or oral agreements between us relating to the subject matter hereof.

I HAVE READ ALL OF THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND I UNDERSTAND, AND AGREE TO, EACH OF SUCH PROVISIONS.

Form of Employee Proprietary Information, Developments and Non-Competition Agreement


GLASSHOUSE TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

Employment Agreement

In consideration of my employment or continued employment, as the case may be, by Glass House Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), and the grant of options to purchase shares of common stock, par value $.001 (“Common Stock”), of the Company, I, the undersigned employee, hereby agree with the Company as follows:

1. Proprietary Information.

(a) I understand that the Company possesses and will continue to possess information that has been or will be created, discovered, developed or otherwise become known to the Company (including, without limitation, information created, discovered, developed or made known to me during the period of my employment by the Company to be used in the actual or anticipated business of the Company) or in which property rights have been or will be assigned or otherwise conveyed to the Company, which information has commercial value in the business in which the Company is engaged and is treated by the Company as confidential or proprietary. All such information is hereafter called “Proprietary Information.” By way of illustration, but not limitation, Proprietary Information includes processes, formulas, data, computer programs, software and documentation, know-how, improvements, discoveries, developments, designs, algorithms, inventions, techniques, strategies, new products, marketing plans, forecasts, unpublished financial statements, business forms, contract forms, report formats, budgets, projections, licenses, prices, costs, customer, client and supplier lists and employee information and any other information of a similar nature not available to the public, whether oral or written, in drawings or in machine-readable form, and whether or not expressly marked “Confidential” or “Proprietary.” I acknowledge that the development and acquisition of the Proprietary Information are the result of great effort and expense on the part of the Company and are critical to the success and survival of the Company.

(b) All Proprietary Information shall be the sole property of the Company, and the Company shall be the sole owner of all patents, copyrights and other rights related thereto. I hereby assign to the Company any rights I may have or acquire in such Proprietary Information. At all times, both during my employment by the Company and after its termination for whatever reason, I will keep in strictest confidence and trust all Proprietary Information, and I will not use or disclose any Proprietary Information without the prior written consent of the Company, except as may be necessary in the ordinary course of performing my duties as an employee of the Company. In the event of the termination of my employment by me or by the Company for any reason or upon three (3) business days after written request by the Company, I will deliver to the Company all documents, notes, drawings, specifications, data, and other materials of any nature pertaining to my work with the Company and/or containing Proprietary Information, and I will not take with me or retain any of the foregoing, any reproduction of any of the foregoing, or any Proprietary Information that is embodied in a tangible medium of expression. For purposes of the third and fourth sentence of this Section 1(b), Proprietary Information shall include confidential or proprietary information the Company has received and may in the future receive from third parties, which is subject to the Company’s obligation to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes.

2. Developments, Etc.

(a) I will promptly disclose to the Company (or any persons designated by it) all processes, formulas, data, computer programs, software and documentation, know-how, improvements, discoveries, developments, designs, algorithms, inventions, techniques, strategies and new products, whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar statutes, made or conceived or reduced to practice or learned by me, either alone or jointly with others, during the period of my employment that are related to or useful in the actual or anticipated business of the Company, result from tasks assigned to me by the Company, or result from the use of premises owned, leased or contracted for by the Company (all of the foregoing are hereinafter referred to as “Developments”). To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Developments will be deemed work made for hire. I will also promptly disclose to the Company, and the Company hereby agrees to receive all such disclosures in confidence, all other processes, formulas, data,


computer programs, software and documentation, know-how, improvements, discoveries, developments, designs, algorithms, inventions, techniques, strategies and new products, whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar statues, made or conceived or reduced to practice or learned by me, either alone or jointly with others, during the period of my employment for the purpose of determining whether they constitute Developments. The provisions of this Section 2 will apply to all Developments which are conceived or developed during the term of my employment with the Company, whether or not further development or reduction to practice may take place after termination of my employment.

(b) I agree that all Developments shall be the sole property of the Company, and the Company shall be the sole owner of all patents, copyrights and other rights in connection therewith. I hereby assign to the Company any rights I may have or acquire in such Developments. I further agree as to all such Developments to assist the Company in every proper way (but at the Company’s expense) to obtain and from time to time enforce patents, copyrights and other rights and protections relating to said Developments in any and all countries, and to that end I will execute all documents for use in applying for and obtaining such patents, copyrights and other rights and protections and enforcing such Developments, as the Company may desire, together with any assignments thereof to the Company or persons designated by it. My obligation to assist the Company in obtaining and enforcing patents, copyrights and other rights and protections relating to such Developments in any and all countries shall continue beyond the termination of my employment, but the Company shall compensate me at a reasonable rate after my termination for time actually spent by me at the Company’s request on such assistance.

3. Former Employment. I represent that my performance of all the terms of this Agreement and as an employee of the Company does not and will not breach any agreement to keep in confidence proprietary information acquired by me in confidence or in trust prior to my employment by the Company. I have not entered into, and I agree I will not enter into, any agreement either written or oral in conflict herewith. I represent, as part of the consideration for the offer of employment extended to me by the Company and of my employment or continued employment (as the case may be) by the Company, and the grant of options to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company that I have not brought and will not bring with me to the Company for use in the performance of any of my responsibilities for the Company any materials or documents of a former employer that are not generally available to the public, unless I have obtained express written authorization from the former employer for their possession and use. I also understand that, in my employment with the Company, I am not to breach any obligation of confidentiality that I have to former employers, and I agree that I shall fulfill all such obligations during my employment with the Company.

4. Other Employment; Extent of Service. I agree that during the period of my employment by the Company I will not, without the Company’s prior express written consent, engage in any employment or business other than for the Company. During the term of my employment, I agree to use my best efforts in, and shall devote substantially all of my working time, attention, skill and energies to, the advancement of the interests of the Company and the performance of my duties and responsibilities in connection with my employment with the Company.

5. Covenant Not to Compete.

(a) I agree that in the event I am terminated from Company for Cause or resign for a reason other than Good Reason, I will not, for a period of one (1) year after my separation from Company, serve as a compensated or uncompensated employee, or provide any labor or services for any company, that is directly competitive with the Company at the time of my separation.

1. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall be defined as theft of Company property, falsification of Company documents or records or improper use or disclosure of Company’s confidential or proprietary information, the failure or inability to perform any reasonable assigned duties after written notice from Company and a reasonable opportunity to cure such failure or inability, conviction of any felony or conviction of any criminal act (other than ordinary traffic violations) which impairs or calls into question they ability to perform duties with Company, material breach of Company’s written policies which


materially and adversely affects Company and which are not cured within a reasonable time period, and/or the occurrence of severe physical or mental disability such that I cannot perform my duties with or without reasonable accommodation.

2. “Good reason” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following without my express written consent: (a) a material diminution in my authority or responsibilities; (b) a material reduction in my salary, benefits or other fringe benefits (unless reductions comparable in amount and duration are concurrently made for all other Employees of the Company with responsibilities, organizational level and title comparable to mine); or (c) without my consent, the relocation of my principal place of employment more than 50 miles from my then-current principal place of employment or the imposition of travel requirements substantially more demanding on me.

3. This provision (Section 5) shall not become effective until I have completed six (6) months of employment.

(b) The restrictions against competition set forth in this Section 5 are considered by the parties to be reasonable for the purposes of protecting the business of the Company. However, if any such restriction is found by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable because it extends for too long a period of time or over too great a range of activities or in too broad a geographic area, I agree that it shall be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time, range of activities or geographic area as to which it may be enforceable.

6. Non-Solicitation. During the period of my employment with the Company and for one (1) year following the termination of my employment for any reason, I agree that I will not, either on my own behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity, directly or indirectly, (i) hire, solicit, or encourage to leave the employ of the Company any person who is or was an employee of the Company at any time during my employment with the Company, or (ii) solicit, entice away or divert all or part of the business of any person or entity who is then a client or customer of the Company or who was a client or customer of the Company at the time of my employment, or of any potential client or customer of the Company of which I had knowledge during my employment by the Company. I agree that client or customer lists, business contracts and related items are the property of the Company and are considered Proprietary Information hereunder. The restrictions described herein shall apply to my activities anywhere in the United States.

I agree that the state or federal courts located within The Commonwealth of Massachusetts shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of this Agreement, and I hereby agree to submit to personal jurisdiction of such courts.

11. No Contract of Employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a contract of employment between myself and the Company or as a commitment on the part of the Company to retain me in any capacity for any period of time.

For the purchase price of $0.001 per share (the “Warrant Price”) the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, this Warrant is issued to                      or its assigns (the “Holder”) by GlassHouse Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).

1. Purchase of Shares.

(a) Number of Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Holder is entitled, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company (or at such other place as the Company shall notify the Holder in writing), to purchase from the Company up to the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) as calculated pursuant to section 2(b) below (the “Warrant Shares”).

(b) Calculation of Warrant Shares. The Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to purchase from the Company up to the number of Warrant Shares as calculated pursuant to the following equation below. For the avoidance of doubt, should the number of Warrant Shares as calculated below equal a number that is less than zero, then this Warrant shall no longer be exercisable and shall become null and void.

 

Warrant Shares = (  

Series F Aggregate Purchase Price

Post IPO Price

  ) – Series F Shares
   

For the purposes of this Warrant:

“Series F Aggregate Purchase Price” =                      (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, recapitalizations or the like).


“Series F Shares” =                      (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, recapitalizations or the like).

“Post IPO Price” = The volume weighted average closing price of the Company’s Common Stock as quoted on any exchange or electronic securities market on which the shares of the Company’s Common Stock are listed, as published in The Wall Street Journal for the thirty (30) trading days prior to the Commencement Date (as defined below).

(c) Exercise Price. The exercise price for the Warrant Shares issuable pursuant to this Section 1 shall be $0.01 per share (the “Exercise Price”). The Warrant Shares and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 9 hereof.

2. Exercise Period. This Warrant shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, during the term commencing upon the day that immediately follows the expiration of the Lock-Up Period described in Section 19 hereto (the “Commencement Date”) and ending at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on July 15, 2017 (the “Exercise Period”); provided, however, that this Warrant shall no longer be exercisable and become null and void upon the consummation of a Liquidation Event or Extraordinary Transaction, as such terms are defined below (collectively, a “Corporate Transaction”). In the event of a Corporate Transaction, the Company shall notify the Holder at least ten (10) business days prior to the consummation of such Corporate Transaction.

For the purposes of this Warrant:

“Liquidation Event” shall mean any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary.

“Extraordinary Transaction” shall mean (a) a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity (except for a merger or consolidation in which the holders of capital stock of the Company immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continue to hold at least a majority of the outstanding voting power of such surviving entity), (b) the closing of the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company, (c) the closing of any purchase of shares of capital stock of the Company (either through a negotiated stock purchase or a tender for such shares) by any party or group that did not beneficially own a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation immediately prior to such purchase, the effect of which is that such party or group beneficially owns at least a majority of such voting power immediately after such purchase, or (d) the redemption or repurchase of shares, the effect of which is that any party or group that did not beneficially own a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company immediately prior to such redemption or repurchase beneficially owns a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company after such redemption or repurchase.


3. Method of Exercise.

(a) While this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable in accordance with Section 2 above, the Holder may exercise, in whole or in part, the purchase rights evidenced hereby. Such exercise shall be effected by:

(i) the surrender of the Warrant, together with a duly executed copy of the Notice of Exercise attached hereto, to the Secretary of the Company at its principal office (or at such other place as the Company shall notify the Holder in writing); and

(ii) the payment to the Company of an amount equal to the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares being purchased.

(b) Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which this Warrant is surrendered to the Company as provided in Section 3(a) above. At such time, the person or persons in whose name or names any certificate for the Warrant Shares shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in Section 3(c) below shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the Warrant Shares represented by such certificate.

(c) As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in whole or in part the Company at its expense will cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, the Holder, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct:

(i) a certificate or certificates for the number of Warrant Shares to which such Holder shall be entitled, and

(ii) in case such exercise is in part only, a new warrant or warrants (dated the date hereof) of like tenor, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of Warrant Shares equal to the number of such Warrant Shares described in this Warrant minus the number of such Warrant Shares purchased by the Holder upon all exercises made in accordance with Section 3(a) above or Section 4 below.

(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2, if the holder has not exercised this Warrant prior to the closing of a Corporate Transaction, this Warrant shall automatically be deemed to be exercised in full in the manner set forth in Section 4, without any further action on behalf of the Holder immediately prior to such closing.

4. Net Exercise. In lieu of exercising this Warrant for cash, the Holder may elect to receive shares equal to the value of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being exercised) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with notice of such election (a “Net Exercise”). A Holder who Net Exercises shall have the rights described in Sections 3(b) and 3(c) hereof, and the Company shall issue to such Holder a number of Warrant Shares computed using the following formula:

 

X =  

Y (A - B)

  
  A   


Where

 

  X = The number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.

 

  Y = The number of Warrant Shares purchasable under this Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being exercised (at the date of such calculation).

 

  A = The fair market value of one (1) Warrant Share (at the date of such calculation).

 

  B = The Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).

For purposes of this Section 4, the fair market value of a Warrant Share shall mean the average of the closing prices of the Warrant Shares (or equivalent shares of Common Stock underlying this Warrant) quoted in the over-the-counter market in which the Warrant Shares (or equivalent shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrant) are traded or the closing price quoted on any exchange or electronic securities market on which the Warrant Shares (or equivalent shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrant) are listed, whichever is applicable, as published in The Wall Street Journal for the thirty (30) trading days prior to the date of determination of fair market value (or such shorter period of time during which such Warrant Shares were traded over-the-counter or on such exchange). If the Warrant Shares are not traded on the over-the-counter market, an exchange or an electronic securities market, the fair market value shall be the price per Share that the Company could obtain from a willing buyer for Warrant Shares sold by the Company from authorized but unissued Warrant Shares, as such prices shall be determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors.

5. Representations and Covenants of the Company. In connection with the transactions provided for herein, the Company hereby represents and warrants to the Holder that:

(a) Organization, Good Standing, and Qualification. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted. The Company is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse effect on its business or properties.

(b) Authorization. Except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights, all corporate action has been taken on the part of the Company, its officers, directors, and stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Warrant. The Company has taken all corporate action required to make all the obligations of the Company reflected in the provisions of this Warrant the valid and enforceable obligations they purport to be. The issuance of this Warrant will not be subject to preemptive rights of any stockholders of the Company or the necessary waivers will have been received by the Company with respect to such preemptive rights. The Company has authorized sufficient shares of Common Stock to allow for the exercise of this Warrant.


(c) Notices of Record Date. In the event of any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend (other than a cash dividend which is the same as cash dividends paid in previous quarters and stock dividends) or other distribution, the Company shall mail to the Holder, at least ten (10) days prior to such record date, a notice specifying the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend or distribution.

6. Representations and Warranties of the Holder. In connection with the transactions provided for herein, the Holder hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:

(a) Authorization. Holder represents that it has full power and authority to enter into this Warrant. This Warrant constitutes the Holder’s valid and legally binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and (ii) laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.

(b) Purchase Entirely for Own Account. The Holder acknowledges that this Warrant is entered into by the Holder in reliance upon such Holder’s representation to the Company that the Warrant and the Warrant Shares (collectively, the “Securities”) will be acquired for investment for the Holder’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that the Holder has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in or otherwise distributing the same. By acknowledging this Warrant, the Holder further represents that the Holder does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement, or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to the Securities.

(c) Disclosure of Information. The Holder acknowledges that it has received all the information it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to acquire the Securities. The Holder further represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities.

(d) Investment Experience. The Holder is an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Securities. If other than an individual, the Holder also represents it has not been organized solely for the purpose of acquiring the Securities.

(e) Accredited Investor. The Holder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D, as presently in effect, as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Act.


(f) Restricted Securities. The Holder understands that the Securities are characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Act, only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, the Holder represents that it is familiar with Rule 144, as presently in effect, as promulgated by the SEC under the Act (“Rule 144”), and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act.

(g) Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way limiting the representations set forth above, the Holder further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Warrant Shares unless and until the transferee has agreed in writing for the benefit of the Company to be bound by the terms of this Warrant, including, without limitation, this Section 6, Section 20, and:

(i) there is then in effect a registration statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement; or

(ii) the Holder shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and if reasonably requested by the Company, the Holder shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will not require registration of such shares under the Act. It is agreed that the Company will not require opinions of counsel for transactions made pursuant to Rule 144 except in extraordinary circumstances; or

(iii) if other than an individual, the Holder shall not make any disposition to any of the Company’s competitors as such is in good faith determined by the Company.

(h) Legends. It is understood that the Securities may bear the following legend:

“THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SUCH ACT OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SUCH ACT.”


7. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares. The number and kind of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

(a) Subdivisions, Combinations and Other Issuances. If the Company shall at any time after the issuance but prior to the expiration of this Warrant subdivide its Common Stock, by split-up or otherwise, or combine its Common Stock, or issue additional shares of its Preferred Stock or Common Stock as a dividend with respect to any shares of its Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares issuable on the exercise of this Warrant shall forthwith be proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision or stock dividend, or proportionately decreased in the case of a combination. Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the Exercise Price payable per share, but the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the total number of Warrant Shares purchasable under this Warrant (as adjusted) shall remain the same. Any adjustment under this Section 7(a) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective, or as of the record date of such dividend, or in the event that no record date is fixed, upon the making of such dividend.

(b) Reclassification, Reorganization and Consolidation. In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or change in the capital stock of the Company (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination or stock dividend provided for in Section 7(a) above), then, as a condition of such reclassification, reorganization or change, lawful provision shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Holder, so that the Holder shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant to purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities or property receivable in connection with such reclassification, reorganization or change by a holder of the same number and type of securities as were purchasable as Warrant Shares by the Holder immediately prior to such reclassification, reorganization or change. In any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Holder so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any shares of stock or other securities or property deliverable upon exercise hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Exercise Price per Share payable hereunder, provided the aggregate Exercise Price shall remain the same.

(c) Notice of Adjustment. When any adjustment is required to be made in the number or kind of shares purchasable upon exercise of the Warrant, or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall promptly notify the Holder of such event and of the number of Warrant Shares or other securities or property thereafter purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant.

8. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor on the basis of the Exercise Price then in effect.

9. No Stockholder Rights. Prior to exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall not be entitled to any rights of a stockholder with respect to the Warrant Shares, including (without limitation) the right to vote such Warrant Shares, receive dividends or other distributions thereon, exercise preemptive rights or be notified of stockholder meetings, and, except as otherwise provided in this Warrant, such Holder shall not be entitled to any stockholder notice or other communication concerning the business or affairs of the Company.


10. Transfer of Warrant. Subject to compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws and any other contractual restrictions between the Company and the Holder contained herein, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable in whole or in part by the Holder to any person or entity upon written notice to the Company. Within a reasonable time after the Company’s receipt of an executed Assignment Form in the form attached hereto, the transfer shall be recorded on the books of the Company upon the surrender of this Warrant, properly endorsed, to the Company at its principal offices, and the payment to the Company of all transfer taxes and other governmental charges imposed on such transfer. In the event of a partial transfer, the Company shall issue to the new holders one (1) or more appropriate new warrants.

11. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Delaware as applied to agreements among Delaware residents, made and to be performed entirely within the State of Delaware.

12. Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of this Warrant and the Purchase Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and the holders hereof and their respective successors and assigns.

13. Counterparts. This Warrant may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

14. Titles and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Warrant are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Warrant.

15. Notices. All notices and other communications given or made pursuant hereto shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (b) when sent by confirmed electronic mail or facsimile if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and if not so confirmed, then on the next business day, (c) five (5) days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (d) one (1) day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of receipt.

16. Finder’s Fee. Each party represents that it neither is or will be obligated for any finder’s fee or commission in connection with this transaction.

18. Severability. If any provision of this Warrant is held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this Warrant and the balance of the Warrant shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

19. “Market Stand-Off” Agreement. The Holder has entered into a “market stand-off” agreement (the “Lock-Up”) with the managing underwriter of the Company’s initial public offering (the “Managing Underwriter”) and the Holder acknowledges that the Lock-Up shall restrict the Holder’s ability to transfer or dispose of the Company’s capital stock acquired through the exercise of this Warrant for a specified period (the “Lock-Up Period”) following the Company’s initial public offering. The Holder hereby agrees that it will, upon the request of the Managing Underwriter, enter into a new or revised Lock-Up in substantially the form similar to the Lock-Up being entered into by all directors, officers and five percent (5%) holders of the Company’s equity securities.
