EXHIBIT 99.7
FORM OF STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
--------------------------------
▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇, INC.
STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
------------------------
I hereby elect to participate in the 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
(the "ESPP") for the offering period specified below, and I hereby subscribe to
purchase shares of Common Stock of ▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇, INC. (the "Corporation") in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the ESPP. I hereby
authorize payroll deductions from each of my paychecks following my entry into
the ESPP in the 1% multiple of my cash compensation (not to exceed a maximum of
10%) specified in my attached Enrollment Form.
The offering period is divided into a series of consecutive purchase
intervals. With the exception of the initial purchase interval which begins at
the time of the initial public offering of the Common Stock and ends on July 30,
1999, those purchase intervals will each be of six months duration and will run
from the first business day of August each year to last business day of January
in the following year and from the first business day of February to the last
business day of July each year. My participation will automatically remain in
effect from one purchase interval to the next in accordance with my payroll
deduction authorization, unless I withdraw from the ESPP or change the rate of
my payroll deduction or unless my employment status changes. I may reduce the
rate of my payroll deductions on one occasion per purchase interval, and I may
increase my rate of payroll deductions to become effective at the beginning of
any subsequent purchase interval.
My payroll deductions will be accumulated for the purchase of shares
of common stock on the last business day of each purchase interval within the
offering period. The purchase price per share will be equal to 85% of the lower
-----
of (i) the fair market value per share of common stock on my Entry Date into the
offering period or (ii) the fair market value per share on the purchase date. I
will also be subject to ESPP restrictions (i) limiting the maximum number of
shares which I may purchase per purchase interval, (ii) limiting the maximum
number of shares which may be purchased in total by all participants per
purchase interval and (iii) prohibiting me from purchasing more than $25,000
worth of Common Stock for each calendar year my purchase right remains
outstanding.
I may withdraw from the ESPP at any time prior to the last business
day of the purchase interval and elect either to have the Corporation refund all
my payroll deductions for that interval or to have such payroll deductions
applied to the purchase of common stock at the end of such interval. However, I
may not rejoin that particular offering period at any later date. Upon the
termination of my employment for any reason, including death or disability, or
my loss of eligible employee status, my participation in the ESPP will
immediately cease, and all my payroll deductions for the purchase interval in
which my employment terminates or my loss of eligibility occurs will immediately
be refunded.
If I take an unpaid leave of absence, my payroll deductions will
immediately cease, and any payroll deductions for the purchase interval in which
my leave begins will, at my election, either be refunded or applied to the
purchase of shares of common stock at the end of that purchase interval. If my
re-employment is guaranteed by either law or contract, or if I return to active
service within ninety (90) days, then upon my return my payroll deductions will
automatically resume at the rate in effect when my leave began.
The Corporation will issue a stock certificate for the shares
purchased on my behalf after the end of each purchase interval. The certificate
will be issued in street name and will be deposited directly in my Corporation-
designated brokerage account. I will notify the Corporation of any disposition
of shares purchased under the ESPP, and I will satisfy all applicable income and
employment tax withholding requirements at the time of such disposition.
The Corporation has the right, exercisable in its sole discretion, to
amend or terminate all outstanding purchase rights under the ESPP at any time,
with such amendment or termination to become effective immediately following the
end of any purchase interval. However, such purchase rights may be amended or
terminated with an immediate effective date to the extent necessary to avoid the
Corporation's recognition of compensation expense for financial reporting
purposes, should the accounting principles applicable to the ESPP change. Upon
any such termination, I will cease to have any further rights to purchase shares
of common stock under this Agreement.
I have read this Agreement and hereby agree to be bound by the terms
of both this Agreement and the ESPP. The effectiveness of this Agreement is
dependent upon my eligibility to participate in the ESPP.
