3. REPURCHASE OF SHARES.
3.1. VESTING OF SHARES. On and after the date hereof, the terms of
any repurchase of any Shares shall differ depending on whether such Shares are
"Unvested Shares" or "Vested Shares". All of the Shares shall initially be
considered "Unvested Shares". On each anniversary of August 29, 2003 prior to
the Termination of Employment, commencing with August 29, 2004, 20% of the
original number of Shares shall become "Vested Shares", such that all of the
Shares shall be Vested Shares as of and after August 29, 2008 if the Termination
of Employment does not occur prior to such date. Upon the occurrence of a Target
Disposition Event prior to a Termination of Employment, all of the then Unvested
Shares shall become Vested Shares. No Shares which have not already become
Vested Shares shall become Vested Shares upon or after the Termination of
Employment for any reason.
3.2. REPURCHASE RIGHTS OF THE COMPANY.
(a) TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Upon the Termination of Employment at
any time and for any reason, the Company shall have the right to repurchase from
the Stockholder, and the Stockholder will at the request of the Company sell to
the Company all (but not less than all) of the Shares at a purchase price per
Share determined pursuant to paragraphs (i) and (ii) below:
(i) in the event that such Termination of Employment is for
Cause at any time, or is a result of the Stockholder's resignation
(other than for Good Reason) prior to the fifth anniversary of the
date hereof, at a purchase price per Share equal to the Original
Price Per Share plus interest on such amount from the date hereof to
the date of repurchase at the rate of 5% per annum; and
(ii) otherwise, (A) at a purchase price per Vested Share equal
to the Market Value Per Share and (B) at a purchase price per
Unvested Share equal to the Original Price Per Share plus interest
on such amount from the date hereof to the date of repurchase at the
rate of 5% per annum.
(b) REPURCHASE UPON DISPOSITION EVENT. Upon the occurrence of any
Disposition Event, the Company shall repurchase from the Stockholder, and the
Stockholder will
6
at the request of the Company sell to the Company, all of the Unvested Shares,
at a purchase price per Share equal to the Original Price Per Share plus
interest on such amount from the date hereof to the date of repurchase at the
rate of 5% per annum.
3.3. REPURCHASE CLOSING. The Company's repurchase rights under
Section 3.2 shall be exercisable at any time (i) within ninety (90) days
following the Termination of Employment, or (ii) in the case of a repurchase
pursuant to Section 3.2(b) simultaneously with the closing of the Disposition
Event, in each case by notice to the Stockholder (the "Repurchase Notice"). The
closing of the repurchase of such Shares pursuant to clause (i) above shall be
held (a) not earlier than five (5) days nor later than thirty (30) days after
delivery of the Repurchase Notice if such Termination of Employment is for Cause
or is the result of the Stockholder's resignation (other than for Good Reason)
prior to the fifth anniversary of the date hereof or (b) otherwise, not earlier
than five (5) days nor later than thirty (30) days after determination of the
Common Equity Value pursuant to Section 3.4. The Company's repurchase rights
under Section 3.2 shall lapse if not exercised within the time periods (if any)
specified above in accordance with the provisions hereof, except as otherwise
provided in Section 7 hereof. Amounts due from the Company to the Stockholder
under this Section 3.3 shall be set off in payment of any amounts payable from
the Stockholder to the Company under the Note. Upon delivery by the Company of
the repurchase price for the Shares being repurchased hereunder in accordance
with Section 8 hereof, all of the Shares being repurchased shall no longer be
deemed to be outstanding, all of the Stockholder's rights with respect to such
Shares shall terminate with the exception of the right of the Stockholder to
receive the repurchase price in exchange therefor pursuant to this Section 3.3,
and the Stockholder hereby appoints the Company as his attorney-in-fact to take
all actions necessary and sign all documents required to cancel such Shares on
its books and records.
3.4. APPRAISAL. Within fifteen (15) days following his receipt of a
Repurchase Notice from the Company in respect of a repurchase of the Shares
pursuant to Section 3.2(a)(ii) hereof, the Stockholder shall select three (3)
Independent Appraisers that the Stockholder purposes to determine the Common
Equity Value for purposes of this Agreement and shall notify the Company in
writing of such selection (the "Stockholder Appraiser Notice"). The Independent
Appraisers listed in the Stockholder Appraiser Notice shall be identical to the
Independent Appraisers listed in any "Stockholder Appraiser Notice" delivered
under the Repurchase Agreement. The Company shall select one (1) of the
Independent Appraisers listed in the Stockholder Appraiser Notice and use
reasonable commercial efforts to promptly engage, at the cost and expense of the
Company, such Independent Appraiser to determine the Common Equity Value for
purposes of this Agreement. The terms of such engagement shall provide that the
Independent Appraiser shall complete its determination of the Common Equity
Value within 45 days of engagement by the Company. The Company shall not be
required to select any Independent Appraiser from a Stockholder Appraiser Notice
unless the Stockholder Appraiser Notice includes three (3) Independent
Appraisers. If the Stockholder has not provided a Stockholder Appraiser Notice
which complies with the requirements of this Section 3.4 within thirty (30) days
following the Stockholder's receipt of the Repurchase Notice, the Board shall in
good faith select an Independent Appraiser to determine the Common Equity Value.
Any determination of the Common Equity Value by an Independent Appraiser
pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the
parties.

4. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. The Stockholder may not sell, assign,
transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of ("Transfer") any of the Unvested
Shares, either voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law, except to
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Except as otherwise expressly provided
in the Stockholder Agreement, the Stockholder may not Transfer any of the Vested
Shares, either voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law, except to
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. On and after the time the Company
completes a Public Sale, all of the restrictions on Transfer and the repurchase
rights and obligations of the Company contained herein (including, without
limitation, the repurchase rights and obligations of the Company pursuant to
Section 3 hereof), shall cease to apply to any Shares that constitute Vested
Shares at such time and to any Shares that become Vested Shares after such time
pursuant to the terms hereof. Under no circumstances may the Stockholder
Transfer any Shares in violation of the terms of the Note. The Stockholder
agrees to execute and deliver the Stockholder Agreement simultaneously with the
purchase of the Shares hereunder. Upon any permitted Transfer of the Shares, the
transferee of the Shares shall execute and deliver to the Company an agreement
containing repurchase provisions substantially the same as those contained
herein.
5. INVESTMENT REPRESENTATIONS. (a) The Stockholder represents that
the Shares are being acquired by him for his own account for investment and not
with a view to the distribution thereof. The Stockholder understands that the
Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Act"), on the grounds that the offer and sale of the Shares to him are
exempt from the registration requirements of the Act under Section 4(2) thereof
as a transaction not involving any public offering of the Shares. The
Stockholder understands that the Company's reliance on such exemption is
predicated in part on the representations of the Stockholder which are contained
herein.
(b) The Stockholder understands that he must bear the economic risk
of his investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time because the
Shares have not been registered under the Act and, therefore, cannot be sold
unless they are subsequently registered under the Act or an exemption from such
registration is available. The Stockholder agrees that he will not offer to
Transfer any of the Shares except as expressly permitted by this Agreement and
then only after the Company has received an opinion of its counsel that such
offer or Transfer is not in violation of the registration requirements of the
Act or other applicable law.
(c) The Stockholder represents that he is an "accredited investor"
(as defined in Rule 501 under the Act) and a resident of the State of Minnesota.
6. LEGENDS; STOP TRANSFER. (a) Each certificate representing
the Shares shall bear legends in or substantially in the following form:
"THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. NO TRANSFER, SALE OR
OTHER DISPOSITION OF THESE SHARES MAY BE MADE UNLESS A REGISTRATION
STATEMENT WITH RESPECT TO THESE SHARES HAS BECOME EFFECTIVE UNDER
SAID ACT, OR THE COMPANY HAS BEEN FURNISHED WITH AN OPINION OF
8
COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT
REQUIRED.
THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO CERTAIN
REPURCHASE RIGHTS IN FAVOR OF THE COMPANY AND CERTAIN PROVISIONS
REGARDING RESTRICTIONS UPON TRANSFER CONTAINED IN A RESTRICTED STOCK
PURCHASE AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF AUGUST 29, 2003, COPIES OF WHICH
WILL BE FURNISHED BY THE COMPANY TO THE HOLDER OF THE SHARES
EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE UPON WRITTEN REQUEST AND WITHOUT
CHARGE."
(b) In addition, the Company shall make a notation regarding the
restrictions on transfer of the Shares in the stock books of the Company, and
such Shares shall be transferred on the books of the Company only if and when
transferred or sold in compliance with all of the terms and conditions of this
Agreement.
7. REPURCHASE RESTRICTIONS.
7.1. CONTRACTUAL RESTRICTIONS ON REPURCHASE. Notwithstanding any
provision to the contrary in Section 3, if the repurchase price for any Shares
to be repurchased hereunder exceeds amounts owed under the Note so that after
setting off payments due to the Stockholder hereunder against such amounts, the
Company remains obligated to make payments to the Stockholder hereunder, and the
terms of any of the financing agreements of the Company or its Subsidiaries with
their lenders prohibit the Company from making such payments in cash, the
Company shall be entitled to complete the repurchase of such Shares by
delivering to the Stockholder (or any transferee) a promissory note for that
portion of such payment which exceeds any amounts already set off against the
Note. Each such promissory note shall (i) bear interest at the rate of five
percent (5%) per annum, (ii) provide for the payment of the principal evidenced
thereby in such installments and at such times as are permitted under the terms
of the Company's and its Subsidiaries' financing agreements with their lenders,
(iii) be subordinated to the indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries to
their lenders on terms satisfactory to such lenders and (iv) subject to such
payment restrictions and subordination provisions, provide for the payment in
full of the principal evidenced thereby upon the sale of substantially all of
the assets or stock of the Company.
7.2. IMPAIRMENT OF CAPITAL. If even after giving effect to the
provisions of Section 7.1 hereof, the Company is prohibited by the terms of any
of the financing agreements of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with their
lenders from issuing a promissory note for the balance of the repurchase price
as contemplated by Section 7.1 or is prohibited by law from repurchasing any
Shares which it is obligated or has elected to repurchase hereunder due to any
existing or prospective impairment of its capital, the closing of such
repurchase shall be delayed until the first date on which the Company is
permitted by the terms of any such financing agreements to repurchase such
Shares and has sufficient capital to lawfully repurchase such Shares (the
"Delayed Closing Date"). In the event of any such delay, (i) the Company will be
obligated to pay, on the Delayed Closing Date, interest on the repurchase price
for such Shares, at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum from the date on
which the closing of the repurchase
9
of such Shares was originally scheduled to occur to the Delayed Closing Date,
and (ii) the Stockholder shall remain bound by the restrictions on Transfer
contained herein during such delay; provided, that the Company shall not be
required to issue a promissory note to evidence its payment obligation to the
extent such issuance is prohibited by the terms of any such financing
agreements.
8. PAYMENT FOR SHARES. At any closing held to consummate any
repurchase of the Shares hereunder, the Stockholder shall deliver to the Company
the stock certificates representing such Shares, duly endorsed in blank or with
duly executed stock powers attached, and the Company shall (i) offset the
repurchase price for such Shares against any amounts owed by the Stockholder to
the Company under the Note and (ii) deliver to the Stockholder a check in the
amount of any remaining balance of the repurchase price or a promissory note as
provided in Section 7.1.
9. TERM. This Agreement and all of the restrictions on Transfer and
the repurchase rights and obligations contained herein (including, without
limitation, the repurchase rights and obligations of the Company pursuant to
Section 3 hereof), shall terminate immediately after the completion of a
Disposition Event or a Public Sale.
10. ADJUSTMENT OF REPURCHASE PRICE. Upon any stock split, reverse
stock split, recombination of shares or other similar reorganization of the
capital structure of the Company, the repurchase price otherwise payable to the
Stockholder upon the repurchase of any Shares pursuant to Section 3 hereof shall
be proportionally adjusted to reflect such reorganization.
