------------------------------------------------
THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED INVESTORS' RIGHTS AGREEMENT is made as of
the 25th day of April, 1997, by and between Actuate Software Corporation, a
California corporation (the "Company"), and the investors listed on Schedule A
hereto, each of which is herein referred to as an "Investor."
RECITALS
--------
WHEREAS, the Company and certain of the Investors are parties to the
Amended and Restated Investors' Rights Agreement dated January 23, 1996 (the
"Prior Agreement");
WHEREAS, the Company and certain of the Investors are parties to the
Series D Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement of even date herewith (the "Series D
Agreement");
WHEREAS, in order to induce the Company to enter into the Series D
Agreement and to induce certain of the Investors to invest funds in the Company
pursuant to the Series D Agreement, the Investors and the Company desire to
terminate the Prior Agreement and to enter into this Agreement which shall
govern the rights of the Investors to cause the Company to register shares of
Common Stock issuable to the Investors and certain other matters as set forth
herein, and replace and supersede the Prior Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
1. Registration Rights. The Company covenants and agrees as follows:
-------------------
1.1 Definitions. For purposes of this Section 1:
-----------
(a) The term "Act" means the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
(b) The term "Form S-3" means such form under the Act as in effect on
the date hereof or any registration form under the Act subsequently adopted by
the SEC which permits inclusion or incorporation of substantial information by
reference to other documents filed by the Company with the SEC.
(c) The term "Holder" means any person owning or having the right to
acquire Registrable Securities or any assignee thereof in accordance with
Section 1.13 hereof.
(d) The term "1934 Act" shall mean the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended.
(e) The term "register", "registered," and "registration" refer to a
registration effected by preparing and filing a registration statement or
similar document in compliance with the Act, and the declaration or ordering of
effectiveness of such registration statement or document.
(f) The term "Registrable Securities" means (i) the Common Stock
issuable or issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series B1 Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series C1
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series D1 Preferred Stock, and
(ii) any Common Stock of the Company issued as (or issuable upon the conversion
or exercise of any warrant, right or other security which is issued as) a
dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for or in
replacement of the shares referenced in (i) above, excluding in all cases,
however, any Registrable Securities sold by a person in a transaction in which
his rights under this Section 1 are not assigned.
(g) The number of shares of "Registrable Securities then outstanding"
shall be determined by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding which
are, and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to then
exercisable or convertible securities which are, Registrable Securities.
(h) The term "SEC" shall mean the Securities and Exchange Commission.
1.2 Request for Registration.
------------------------
(a) If the Company shall receive at any time after the earlier of (i)
December 1, 1998 or (ii) three (3) months after the effective date of the first
registration statement for a public offering of securities of the Company (other
than a registration statement relating either to the sale of securities to
employees of the Company pursuant to a stock option, stock purchase or similar
plan or a SEC Rule 145 transaction), a written request from the Holders of at
least 30% of the Registrable Securities then outstanding that the Company file a
registration statement under the Act for aggregate proceeds, net of underwriting
discounts and commissions, in excess of $7,500,000 then the Company shall:
(i) within ten (10) days of the receipt thereof, give
written notice of such request to all Holders; and
2.
(ii) effect as soon as practicable, and in any event within
60 days of the receipt of such request, the registration under the Act of all
Registrable Securities which the Holders request to be registered, subject to
the limitations of subsection 1.2(b), within twenty (20) days of the mailing of
such notice by the Company in accordance with Section 3.5.
(b) If the Holders initiating the registration request hereunder
("Initiating Holders") intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered
by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company
as a part of their request made pursuant to subsection 1.2(a) and the Company
shall include such information in the written notice referred to in subsection
1.2(a). The underwriter will be selected by the Company and shall be reasonably
acceptable to a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders. In such event,
the right of any Holder to include his Registrable Securities in such
registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such
underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's Registrable Securities in the
underwriting (unless otherwise mutually agreed by a majority in interest of the
Initiating Holders and such Holder) to the extent provided herein. All Holders
proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall
(together with the Company as provided in subsection 1.4(e)) enter into an
underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters
selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Section 1.2, if the underwriter advises the Initiating Holders in writing that
marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be
underwritten, then the Initiating Holders shall so advise all Holders of
Registrable Securities which would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto,
and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the
underwriting shall be allocated among all Holders thereof, including the
Initiating Holders, in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the amount of
Registrable Securities of the Company owned by each Holder; provided, however,
that the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in such
underwriting shall not be reduced unless all other securities are first entirely
excluded from the underwriting.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to
Holders requesting a registration statement pursuant to this Section 1.2, a
certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that in
the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be
seriously detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for such registration
statement to be filed and it is therefore essential to defer the filing of such
registration statement, the Company shall have the right to defer taking action
with respect to such filing for a period of not more than 120 days after receipt
of the request of the Initiating Holders; provided, however, that the Company
may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve-month period.
(d) In addition, the Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to
take any action to effect, any registration pursuant to this Section 1.2:
3.
(i) After the Company has effected two registrations
pursuant to this Section 1.2 and such registrations have been declared or
ordered effective;
(ii) During the period starting with the date sixty (60)
days prior to the Company's good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and
ending on a date one hundred eighty (180) days after the effective date of, a
registration subject to Section 1.3 hereof; provided that the Company is
actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such
registration statement to become effective; or
(iii) If the Initiating Holders propose to dispose of shares
of Registrable Securities that may be immediately registered on Form S-3
pursuant to a request made pursuant to Section 1.12 below.
1.3 Company Registration. If (but without any obligation to do
--------------------
so) the Company proposes to register (including for this purpose a registration
effected by the Company for shareholders other than the Holders) any of its
stock or other securities under the Act in connection with the public offering
of such securities solely for cash (other than a registration relating solely to
the sale of securities to participants in a Company stock plan, a registration
on any form which does not include substantially the same information as would
be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the
Registrable Securities or a registration in which the only Common Stock being
registered is Common Stock issuable upon conversion of debt securities which are
also being registered), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each
Holder written notice of such registration. Upon the written request of each
Holder given within twenty (20) days after mailing of such notice by the Company
in accordance with Section 3.5, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of
Section 1.8, cause to be registered under the Act all of the Registrable
Securities that each such Holder has requested to be registered.
1.4 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required under this
--------------------------
Section 1 to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company
shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:
(a) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with
respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such
registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders
of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such
registration statement effective for a period of up to one hundred twenty (120)
days or until the distribution contemplated in the Registration Statement has
been completed; provided, however, that (i) such 120-day period shall be
extended for a period of time equal to the period the Holder refrains from
selling any securities included in such registration at the request of an
underwriter of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company; and (ii) in
the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 which are
intended to be
4.
offered on a continuous or delayed basis, such 120-day period shall be extended,
if necessary, to keep the registration statement effective until all such
Registrable Securities are sold, provided that Rule 415, or any successor rule
under the Act, permits an offering on a continuous or delayed basis, and
provided further that applicable rules under the Act governing the obligation to
file a post-effective amendment permit, in lieu of filing a post-effective
amendment which (I) includes any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Act or (II) reflects facts or events representing a material or fundamental
change in the information set forth in the registration statement, the
incorporation by reference of information required to be included in (I) and
(II) above to be contained in periodic reports filed pursuant to Section 13 or
15(d) of the 1934 Act in the registration statement.
(b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to
such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such
registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the
Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such
registration statement.
(c) Furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus,
including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the
Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to
facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by them.
(d) Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities
covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky
laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders;
provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a
condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to
service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is
already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by
the Act.
(e) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and
perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary
form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder participating
in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under
such an agreement.
(f) Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under the Act of the happening of any event as a result
of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in
effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing.
5.
(g) Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant
hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities
issued by the Company are then listed.
(h) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable
Securities registered pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such
Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such
registration.
1.5 Furnish Information.
-------------------
(a) It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the
Company to take any action pursuant to this Section 1 with respect to the
Registrable Securities of any selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish to
the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held
by it, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be
required to effect the registration of such Holder's Registrable Securities.
(b) The Company shall have no obligation with respect to any
registration requested pursuant to Section 1.2 or Section 1.12 if, due to the
operation of subsection 1.5(a), the number of shares or the anticipated
aggregate offering price of the Registrable Securities to be included in the
registration does not equal or exceed the number of shares or the anticipated
aggregate offering price required to originally trigger the Company's obligation
to initiate such registration as specified in subsection 1.2(a) or subsection
1.12(b)(2), whichever is applicable.
1.6 Expenses of Demand Registration. All expenses other than
-------------------------------
underwriting discounts and commissions incurred in connection with
registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Section 1.2, including
(without limitation) all registration, filing and qualification fees, printers'
and accounting fees, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company shall
be borne by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant
to Section 1.2 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the
request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be
registered (in which case all participating Holders shall bear such expenses),
unless the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities agree to forfeit
their right to one demand registration pursuant to Section 1.2; provided
further, however, that if at the time of such withdrawal, the Holders have
learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of
the Company from that known to the Holders at the time of their request and have
withdrawn the request with reasonable promptness following disclosure by the
Company of such material adverse change, then the Holders shall not be required
to pay any of such expenses and shall retain their rights pursuant to Section
1.2.
6.
1.7 Expenses of Company Registration. The Company shall bear and pay
--------------------------------
all expenses incurred in connection with any registration, filing or
qualification of Registrable Securities with respect to the registrations
pursuant to Section 1.3 for each Holder (which right may be assigned as provided
in Section 1.13), including (without limitation) all registration, filing, and
qualification fees, printers and accounting fees relating or apportionable
thereto and the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company in its
capacity as counsel to the selling Holders hereunder, but excluding underwriting
discounts and commissions relating to Registrable Securities. If Company counsel
does not make itself available to the selling Holders for this purpose, the
Company will pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the
selling Holders selected by them.
1.8 Underwriting Requirements. In connection with any offering
-------------------------
involving an underwriting of shares of the Company's capital stock, the Company
shall not be required under Section 1.3 to include any of the Holders'
securities in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting
as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it (or by
other persons entitled to select the underwriters), and then only in such
quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not,
jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. If the total amount of
securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by shareholders to be
included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities sold other than by
the Company that the underwriters determine in their sole discretion is
compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required
to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including
Registrable Securities, which the underwriters determine in their sole
discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the securities so
included to be apportioned pro rata among the selling shareholders according to
the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned by each
selling shareholder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to
by such selling shareholders) but in no event shall the amount of securities of
the selling Holders included in the offering be reduced below thirty percent
(30%) of the total amount of securities included in such offering, unless such
offering is the initial public offering of the Company's securities in which
case the selling shareholders may be excluded completely if the underwriters
make the determination described above and no other shareholder's securities are
included. For purposes of the preceding parenthetical concerning apportionment,
for any selling shareholder which is a holder of Registrable Securities and
which is a partnership or corporation, the partners, retired partners and
shareholders of such holder, or the estates and family members of any such
partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the
foregoing persons shall be deemed to be a single "selling shareholder", and any
pro-rata reduction with respect to such "selling shareholder" shall be based
upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all
entities and individuals included in such "selling shareholder", as defined in
this sentence.
7.
1.9 Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to obtain
---------------------
or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as
the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the
interpretation or implementation of this Section 1.
1.10 Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are
---------------
included in a registration statement under this Section 1:
(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and
hold harmless each Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Act) for such
Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within
the meaning of the Act, the 1934 Act, or other federal or state law, against any
losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may
become subject under the Act, the 1934 Act or other federal or state law,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements,
omissions or violations (collectively a "Violation"): (i) any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration
statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained
therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation
or alleged violation by the Company of the Act, the 1934 Act, any state
securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Act, the 1934 Act
or any state securities law; and the Company will pay to each such Holder,
underwriter or controlling person any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss,
claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity
agreement contained in this subsection 1.10(a) shall not apply to amounts paid
in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action if such
settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case
for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action to the extent that it
arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection
with such registration by any such Holder, underwriter or controlling person.
(b) To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its
officers who has signed the registration statement, each person, if any, who
controls the Company within the meaning of the Act, any underwriter, any other
Holder selling securities in such registration statement and any controlling
person of any such underwriter or other Holder, against any losses, claims,
damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the foregoing persons
may become subject, under the Act, the 1934 Act or other federal or state law,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the
extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and
in conformity
8.
with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in
connection with such registration; and each such Holder will pay any legal or
other expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended to be indemnified
pursuant to this subsection 1.10(b), in connection with investigating or
defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action; provided, however,
that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 1.10(b) shall not
apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability
or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that, in no event
shall any indemnity under this subsection 1.10(b) exceed the gross proceeds from
the offering received by such Holder.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section
1.10 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental
action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be
made against any indemnifying party under this Section 1.10, deliver to the
indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the
indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent
the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually
satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party
(together with all other indemnified parties which may be represented without
conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel,
with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if
representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the
indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing
interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such
counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the
indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such
action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such
indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section
1.10, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party
will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party
otherwise than under this Section 1.10.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 1.10 is held
by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party
with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to
therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified
party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in
connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss,
liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the
indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent,
9.
knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions
on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement
entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict
with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement
shall control.
(f) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section
1.10 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a
registration statement under this Section 1, and otherwise.
1.11 Reports Under Securities Exchange Act of 1934. With a view to
---------------------------------------------
making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the
Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a
Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration or
pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the Company agrees to:
(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are
understood and defined in SEC Rule 144, at all times after ninety (90) days
after the effective date of the first registration statement filed by the
Company for the offering of its securities to the general public;
(b) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the Act and the 1934 Act; and
(c) furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable
Securities, forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the Company that
it has complied with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144 (at any time
after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the first registration
statement filed by the Company), the Act and the 1934 Act (at any time after it
has become subject to such reporting requirements), or that it qualifies as a
registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form S-3 (at any time
after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly
report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the
Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in
availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC which permits the
selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant to such form.
1.12 Form S-3 Registration. In case the Company shall receive a
---------------------
written request from any Holder or Holders of at least 20% of the Registrable
Securities that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3 and any related
qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable
Securities owned by such Holder or Holders, the Company will:
10.
(a) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, and
any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders; and
(b) as soon as practicable, effect such registration and all such
qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or
facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holder's or
Holders' Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with
all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holder or Holders
joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within 15
days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration,
qualification or compliance, pursuant to this section 1.12: (1) if Form S-3 is
not available for such offering by the Holders; (2) if the Holders, together
with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in
such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other
securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public (net of any
underwriters' discounts or commissions) of less than $500,000; (3) if the
Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the President of
the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of
the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its
shareholders for such Form S-3 Registration to be effected at such time, in
which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3
registration statement for a period of not more than 60 days after receipt of
the request of the Holder or Holders under this Section 1.12; provided, however,
that the Company shall not utilize this right more than once in any twelve month
period; (4) if the Company has, within the twelve (12) month period preceding
the date of such request, already effected two registrations on Form S-3 for the
Holders pursuant to this Section 1.12; or (5) in any particular jurisdiction in
which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a
general consent to service of process in effecting such registration,
qualification or compliance.
(c) Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a registration
statement covering the Registrable Securities and other securities so requested
to be registered as soon as practicable after receipt of the request or requests
of the Holders. All expenses incurred in connection with a registration
requested pursuant to Section 1.12, including (without limitation) all
registration, filing, qualification, printer's and accounting fees and the
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the selling Holder or Holders
and counsel for the Company, but excluding any underwriters' discounts or
commissions associated with Registrable Securities, shall be borne by the
Company. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 1.12 shall not be
counted as demands for registration or registrations effected pursuant to
Sections 1.2 or 1.3, respectively.
1.13 Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the
---------------------------------
Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 1 may be
assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder to a transferee or
assignee of such
11.
securities, who, after such assignment or transfer, holds at least 100,000
shares of Registrable Securities (subject to appropriate adjustment for stock
splits, stock dividends, combinations and other recapitalizations), provided:
(a) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with
written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the
securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned;
(b) such transferee or assignee agrees in writing to be bound by and subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation the
provisions of Section 1.15 below; and (c) such assignment shall be effective
only if immediately following such transfer the further disposition of such
securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Act. For the
purposes of determining the number of shares Of Registrable Securities held by a
transferee or assignee, the holdings of transferees and assignees of a
partnership who are partners or retired partners of such partnership (including
spouses and ancestors, lineal descendants and siblings of such partners or
spouses who acquire Registrable Securities by gift, will or intestate
succession) shall be aggregated together and with the partnership; provided that
all assignees and transferees who would not qualify individually for assignment
of registration rights shall have a single attorney-in-fact for the purpose of
exercising any rights, receiving notices or taking any action under this Section
1.
1.14 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the
---------------------------------------------
date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent
of the Holders of a majority of the outstanding Registrable Securities, enter
into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of
the Company which would allow such holder or prospective holder any registration
rights the terms of which are more favorable or as favorable as the registration
rights granted to the Holders hereunder.
1.15 "Market Stand-Off" Agreement. Each Investor hereby agrees that,
----------------------------
during the period of duration specified by the Company and an underwriter of
common stock or other securities of the Company, following the effective date of
a registration statement of the Company filed under the Act, it shall not, to
the extent requested by the Company and such underwriter, directly or indirectly
sell, offer to sell, contract to sell (including, without limitation, any short
sale), grant any option to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of (other
than to donees who agree to be similarly bound) any Registrable Securities of
the Company held by it at any time during such period except common stock
included in such registration; provided, however, that:
(a) such agreement shall be applicable only to the first such
registration statement of the Company which covers common stock (or other
securities) to be sold on its behalf to the public in an underwritten offering;
(b) all officers and directors of the Company and all other persons
with registration rights (whether or not pursuant to this Agreement) enter into
similar agreements;
12.
(c) such market stand-off time period shall not exceed 180 days; and
(d) such agreement shall provide that any discretionary waiver or
termination of the restrictions of such agreements by the Company or
representatives of the underwriters shall apply to all persons subject to such
agreements pro rata based on the number of shares held.
In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose
stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Registrable Securities of each
Investor (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to the
foregoing restriction) until the end of such period.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations described in this
Section 1.15 shall not apply to a registration relating solely to employee
benefit plans on Form S-I or Form S-8 or similar forms which may be promulgated
in the future, or a registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145
transaction on Form S-14 or Form S-15 or similar forms which may be promulgated
in the future.
1.16 Termination of Registration Rights.
----------------------------------
(a) No Holder shall be entitled to exercise any right provided for in
this Section 1 after five (5) years following the consummation of the sale of
securities pursuant to a registration statement filed by the Company under the
Act in connection with the initial firm commitment underwritten offering of its
securities to the general public.
(b) In addition, the right of any Holder to request registration or
inclusion in any registration pursuant to Sections 1.2, 1.3 or 1.12 shall
terminate on the closing of the first Company-initiated registered public
offering of Common Stock of the Company if all shares of Registrable Securities
held or entitled to be held upon conversion by such Holder may immediately be
sold under Rule 144 during any 90-day period; or on such date after the closing
of the first Company-initiated registered public offering of Common Stock of the
Company as all shares of Registrable Securities held or entitled to be held upon
conversion by such Holder may immediately be sold under Rule 144 during any 90-
day period; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 1.16(b) shall
not apply to any Holder who owns more than two percent (2%) of the outstanding
stock of the Company until such time as such Holder owns less than two percent
(2%) of the outstanding stock of the Company.

Chief Financial Officer or President of the Company and certifying that such
financials were prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied with prior
practice for earlier periods (with the exception of footnotes that may be

14.
(b) The Company shall permit each Significant Investor, at such
Significant Investor's expense, to visit and inspect the Company's properties,
to examine its books of account and records and to discuss the Company's
affairs, finances and accounts with its officers, all at such reasonable times
as may be requested by the Significant Investor; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be obligated pursuant to this Section 2.2 to provide access to
any information which it reasonably considers to be a trade secret or similar
confidential information.
2.3 Termination of Information and Inspection Covenants. The
---------------------------------------------------
covenants set forth in subsections 2.2(a) and 2.2(b), shall terminate as to
Investors and be of no further force or effect when the sale of securities
pursuant to a registration statement filed by the Company under the Act in
connection with the firm commitment underwritten offering of its securities to
the general public is consummated or when the Company first becomes subject to
the periodic reporting requirements of Sections 12(g) or 15(d) of the 1934 Act,
whichever event shall first occur.
2.4 Right of First Offer. Subject to the terms and conditions
--------------------
specified in this paragraph 2.4, the Company hereby grants to each Investor a
right of first offer with respect to future sales by the Company of its Shares
(as hereinafter defined). For purposes of this paragraph 2.4, Investor includes
any general partners and affiliates of an Investor. An Investor shall be
entitled to apportion the right of first offer hereby granted it among itself
and its partners and affiliates in such proportions as it deems appropriate.
Each time the Company proposes to offer any shares of, or securities
convertible into or exercisable for any shares of, any class of its capital
stock ("Shares"), the Company shall first make an offering of such Shares to
each Investor in accordance with the following provisions:
(a) The Company shall deliver a notice by certified mail ("Notice")
to each Investor stating (i) its bona fide intention to offer such Shares, (ii)
the number, of such Shares to be offered, and (iii) the price and terms, if any,
upon which it proposes to offer such Shares.
(b) By written notification received by the Company within 20
calendar days after giving of the Notice, the Investor may elect to purchase or
obtain, at the price and on the terms specified in the Notice, up to that
portion of such Shares which equals the proportion that the number of shares of
common stock issued and held, or issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock
then held, by such Investor bears to the total number of shares of common stock
of the Company then outstanding (assuming full conversion and exercise of all
convertible or exercisable securities). The Company shall promptly, in writing,
inform each Investor which purchases all the shares available to it ("Fully-
Exercising Investor") of any other Investor's failure to do likewise. During the
ten-day period commencing after such information is given, each Fully-Exercising
Investor shall be entitled to obtain that portion of the Shares for which
Investors were
15.
entitled to subscribe but which were not subscribed for by the Investors which
is equal to the proportion that the number of shares of common stock issued and
held, or issuable upon conversion of Preferred Stock then held, by such Fully-
Exercising Investor bears to the total number of shares of common stock issued
and held, or issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock then held, by all
Fully-Exercising Investors who wish to purchase some of the unsubscribed shares.
(c) If all Shares which Investors are entitled to obtain pursuant to
subsection 2.4(b) are not elected to be obtained as provided in subsection
2.4(b) hereof, the Company may, during the 30-day period following the
expiration of the period provided in subsection 2.4(b) hereof, offer the
remaining unsubscribed portion of such Shares to any person or persons at a
price not less than, and upon terms no more favorable to the offeree than those
specified in the Notice. If the Company does not enter into an agreement for the
sale of the Shares within such period, or if such agreement is not consummated
within 30 days of the execution thereof, the right provided hereunder shall be
deemed to be revived and such Shares shall not be offered unless first reoffered
to the Major Investors in accordance herewith.
(d) The right of first offer in this paragraph 2.4 shall not be
applicable (i) to the issuance or sale of shares of common stock (or options
therefor) as approved by the Board of Directors of the Company to employees,
directors or consultants for the primary purpose of soliciting or retaining
their employment, (ii) to or after consummation of a bona fide, firmly
underwritten public offering of shares of common stock, registered under the Act
pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-l, at an offering price of at
least $9.00 per share (appropriately adjusted for any stock split, dividend,
combination or other recapitalization) and $10,000,000 in the aggregate, (iii)
the issuance of securities pursuant to the conversion or exercise of convertible
or exercisable securities, (iv) the issuance of securities in connection with a
bona fide business acquisition of or by the Company, whether by merger,
consolidation, sale of assets, sale or exchange of stock or otherwise, (v) the
issuance of stock, warrants or other securities or rights to persons or entities
with which the Company has business relationships provided such issuances are
for other than primarily equity financing purposes, or (vi) the sale of up to
934,091 shares of the Company's Series D Preferred Stock pursuant to the Series
D Agreement.
(e) The right of first offer set forth in paragraph 2.4 may not be
assigned or transferred, except that (i) such right is assignable by each Holder
to any wholly owned subsidiary or parent of, or to any corporation or entity
that is, within the meaning of the Act, controlling, controlled by or under
common control with, any such Holder, and (ii) such right is assignable between
and among any of the Holders.
2.5 Key-Man Insurance. The Company has as of the date hereof or
-----------------
shall within 90 days of the date hereof use its best efforts to obtain from
financially sound and reputable insurers term life insurance on the life of
βββββββ ββββββββββ in the
16.
amount of $2,000,000, except as otherwise decided in accordance with policies
adopted by the Company's Board of Directors. The Company will cause to be
maintained the term life insurance required by this Section 2.5 hereof, except
as otherwise decided in accordance with policies adopted by the Company's Board
of Directors. Such policies shall name the Company as loss payee and shall not
be cancelable by the Company without prior approval of the Board of Directors.
2.6 Observer Rights. As long as an Investor owns not less than
---------------
100,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock it is purchasing on the date hereof
(or an equivalent amount of Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof), the
Company shall invite a representative of such Investor to attend all meetings of
its Board of Directors in a nonvoting observer capacity and, in this respect,
shall give such representative copies of all notices, minutes, consents, and
other materials that it provides to its directors; provided, however, that such
representative shall agree to hold in confidence and trust and to act in a
fiduciary manner with respect to all information so provided; and, provided
further, that the Company reserves the right to withhold any information and to
exclude such representative from any meeting or portion thereof if access to
such information or attendance at such meeting could adversely affect the
attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel or would result in
disclosure of trade secrets to such representative or if such Investor or its
representative is a direct competitor of the Company.
2.7 Termination of Certain Covenants. The covenants set forth in
--------------------------------
Sections 2.5 and 2.6 shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon
the consummation of the sale of securities pursuant to a registration statement
filed by the Company under the Act in connection with the firm commitment
underwritten offering of its securities to the general public.
