- 6 -


 

Form S-2 (or any successor form) of Registrable Shares owned by such Stockholder or Stockholders.
               (b) At any time after the Company becomes eligible to file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form relating to secondary offerings), a Stockholder or Stockholders (excluding the Common Stockholders) holding Registrable Shares may request, in writing, that the Company effect the registration on Form S-3 (or such successor form), of Registrable Shares having an aggregate offering price of at least $1,000,000 (based on the market price on the date of such request).
               (c) Upon receipt of any request for registration pursuant to this Section 2, the Company shall promptly give written notice of such proposed registration to all other Stockholders. Such Stockholders shall have the right, by giving written notice to the Company within 30 days after the Company provides its notice, to elect to have included in such registration such of their Registrable Shares as such Stockholders may request in such notice of election, subject in the case of an underwritten offering to the terms of Section 2.1(d). Thereupon, the Company shall, as expeditiously as possible, use its best efforts to effect the registration on an appropriate registration form of all Registrable Shares which the Company has been requested to so register; provided, however, that in the case of a registration requested under Section 2.1(b), the Company will only be obligated to effect such registration on Form S-3 (or any successor form).
               (d) If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Shares covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or (b), as the case may be, and the Company shall include such information in its written notice referred to in Section 2.1(c). In such event, (i) the right of any other Stockholder to include its Registrable Shares in such registration pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or (b), as the case may be, shall be conditioned upon such other Stockholder’s participation in such underwriting on the terms thereof, and (ii) all Stockholders including Registrable Shares in such registration shall enter into an underwriting agreement upon customary terms with the underwriter or underwriters managing the offering. If any Stockholder who has requested inclusion of its Registrable Shares in such registration as provided above disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such person may elect, by written notice to the Company, to withdraw its Registrable Shares from such Registration Statement and underwriting. If the Company desires that any officers or directors of the Company holding securities of the Company be included in any registration for an underwritten offering requested pursuant to Section 2.1 or if Other Holders request such inclusion, the Company may include the securities of such officers, directors and Other Holders in such registration and underwriting on the terms thereof applicable to the Stockholders. If the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, the shares held by officers or directors of the Company, Other Holders and Common Stockholders shall be first excluded from such Registration Statement and underwriting to the extent deemed advisable by the managing underwriter, and if a further reduction of the number of shares is required after all such shares have been excluded, the number of shares that may be included in such Registration Statement and underwriting shall be allocated among all Purchasers requesting registration in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to

- 7 -


 

the respective number of Registrable Shares held by them on the date of the request for registration made by the Initiating Holders pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or (b), as the case may be. If any such stockholder would thus be entitled to include more shares than such stockholder requested to be registered, the excess shall be allocated among other participating stockholders pro rata in the manner described in the preceding sentence. If the managing underwriter has not limited the number of Registrable Shares 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 Shares and other securities which would otherwise have been included in such registration and underwriting will not thereby be limited.
               (e) The Company shall not be required to effect more than two registrations pursuant to Section 2.1(a), or more than two registrations per year pursuant to Section 2.1(b). For purposes of this Section 2.1(e), a Registration Statement shall not be counted for purposes of this Section 2.1(e) until such time as such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission and at least 25% of the Registrable Shares requested to be included shall have been sold (unless the Initiating Holders withdraw their request for such registration (other than as a result of information concerning the business or financial condition of the Company which is made known to the Stockholders after the date on which such registration was requested) and elect not to pay the Registration Expenses therefor pursuant to Section 2.4).
               (f) If at the time of any request to register Registrable Shares by Initiating Holders pursuant to this Section 2.1, the Company is engaged or has fixed plans to engage within 30 days of the request in a registered public offering as to which the Initiating Holders may include Registrable Shares pursuant to Section 2.2. or is engaged in any other activity which, in the good faith determination of the Company’s Board of Directors, would be materially adversely affected by the requested registration, then the Company may at its option direct that such request be delayed for a period not in excess of 90 days from the date of such request, such right to delay a request to be exercised by the Company not more than once in any 24-month period.
               (g) The Company will not file with the Commission any other registration statement with respect to its Common Stock other than a Special Registration Statement, whether for its own account or that of Other Holders, from the date of receipt of a notice from requesting holders pursuant to this Section 2.1 until the completion of the period of distribution of the registration contemplated thereby.
          2.2 Incidental Registration.
               (a) Whenever the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement covering shares of Common Stock (other than a Special Registration Statement) at any time and from time to time, it will, prior to such filing, give written notice to all Stockholders of its intention to do so; provided, that no such notice need be given if no Registrable Shares are to be included therein as a result of a written notice from the managing underwriter pursuant to Section 2.2(b). Upon the written request of any Stockholder given within 20 days after the Company provides such notice (which request shall state the intended method of disposition of

- 8 -


 

such Registrable Shares), the Company shall use its best efforts to cause all Registrable Shares which the Company has been requested by such Stockholder to register to be registered under the Securities Act to the extent necessary to permit their sale or other disposition in accordance with the intended methods of distribution specified in the request of such Stockholder; provided that the Company shall have the right to postpone or withdraw any registration effected pursuant to this Section 2.2 without obligation to any Stockholder.
               (b) If the registration for which the Company gives notice pursuant to Section 2.2(a) is a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Stockholders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 2.2(a). In such event, (i) the right of any Stockholder to include its Registrable Shares in such registration pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be conditioned upon such Stockholder’s participation in such underwriting on the terms thereof and (ii) all Stockholders including Registrable Shares in such registration shall enter into an underwriting agreement upon customary terms with the underwriter or underwriters selected for the underwriting by the Board of Directors of the Company. If any Stockholder who has requested inclusion of its Registrable Shares in such registration as provided above disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such person may elect, by written notice to the Company, to withdraw its shares from such Registration Statement and underwriting. If the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, the Company and its underwriters shall allocate the number of Registrable Shares requested to be registered by each of the holders thereof as follows: (i) first, to the Company; (ii) second, to the Purchasers who have elected to participate in such offering, pro rata according to the number of Registrable Shares held by each such Purchaser; (iii) third, to the Common Stockholders who have elected to participate in such offering, pro rata according to the number of Registrable Shares held by each such Common Stockholder, (iv) fourth, to the other holders of Registrable Shares (other than the Purchasers and Common Stockholders) who have elected to participate in such offering, pro rata according to the number of Registrable Shares held by each such holder; and (v) thereafter, to the extent additional securities may be included in such offering, to any other holders of Company securities other than Registrable Shares; provided, however, that no such reduction shall reduce the amount of securities of the Purchasers included in the registration below thirty percent (30%) of the total amount of securities included in such registration, unless such offering is the Initial Public Offering and such registration does not include shares of any other selling stockholders, in which event any or all of the Registrable Shares of the Purchasers may be excluded in accordance with the immediately preceding clause. If any Stockholder or Other Holder would thus be entitled to include more shares than such holder requested to be registered, the excess shall be allocated among other requesting Stockholders and Other Holders pro rata in the manner described in the preceding sentence.
          2.3 Registration Procedures.
               (a) If and whenever the Company is required by the provisions of this Agreement to use its best efforts to effect the registration of any Registrable Shares under the Securities Act, the Company shall:

                    (ix) As expeditiously as possibly, notify each Selling Stockholder of Registrable Shares covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities 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. The Company will amend or supplement such prospectus in order to cause such prospectus not to include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit 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; and
                    (x) as expeditiously as possible following the effectiveness of such Registration Statement, notify each seller of such Registrable Shares of any request by the Commission for the amending or supplementing of such Registration Statement or Prospectus or of the issuance of any stop order by the Commission suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose and promptly use all reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop or to obtain its withdrawal if such stop order should be issued.

The Company shall promptly provide the Selling Stockholders with revised Prospectuses and, following receipt of the revised Prospectuses, the Selling Stockholders shall be free to resume making offers of the Registrable Shares.
          2.4 Allocation of Expenses. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses for all registrations under this Agreement; provided, however, that if a registration under Section 2.1 is withdrawn at the request of the Initiating Holders (other than as a result of information concerning the business or financial condition of the Company which is made known to the Selling Stockholders after the date on which such registration was requested) and if the Initiating Holders elect not to have such registration counted as a registration requested under Section 2.1, the Selling Stockholders shall pay the Registration Expenses of such registration pro rata in accordance with the number of their Registrable Shares included in such registration.

Securities Act or the Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Selling Stockholder, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, state securities or Blue Sky laws or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Shares were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state 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 Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law in connection with the Registration Statement or the offering contemplated thereby; and the Company will reimburse such Selling Stockholder, underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by such Selling Stockholder, underwriter or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or omission made in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus or prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company, in writing, by or on behalf of such Selling Stockholder, underwriter or controlling person specifically for use in the preparation thereof.
               (b) In the event of any registration of any of the Registrable Shares under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, each Selling Stockholder, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers and each underwriter (if any) and each person, if any, who controls the Company or any such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company, such directors and officers, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, Exchange Act, state securities or Blue Sky laws or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which such Registrable Shares were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, if and to the extent (and only to the extent) that the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to such Selling Stockholder furnished in writing to the Company by such Selling Stockholder specifically for use in connection with the preparation of such Registration Statement, prospectus, amendment or supplement; provided, however, that the obligations of a Selling Stockholder hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds to such Selling Stockholder of Registrable Shares sold in connection with such registration.

- 12 -


 

               (c) Each Indemnified Party shall give notice to the Indemnifying Party promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided, that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); and, provided, further, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 2.5 except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is adversely prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall pay such expense if the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes that representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between the Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding; provided further that in no event shall the Indemnifying Party be required to pay the expenses of more than one law firm per jurisdiction as counsel for the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party also shall be responsible for the expenses of such defense if the Indemnifying Party does not elect to assume such defense. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation, and no Indemnified Party shall consent to entry of any judgment or settle such claim or litigation without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
               (d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.5 is due in accordance with its terms but for any reason is held to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party in respect to any losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such party may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Selling Stockholders on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company and the Selling Stockholders shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact related to information supplied by the Company or the Selling Stockholders and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Selling Stockholders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.5(d), (i) in no case shall any one Selling Stockholder be liable or responsible for any amount in excess of the net proceeds received by such Selling Stockholder from the offering of Registrable Shares and (ii) the Company shall be liable and responsible for any amount in excess of such proceeds; provided, however, that no person guilty of fraudulent

- 13 -


 

misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Any party entitled to contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against another party or parties under this Section 2.5(d), notify such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to notify such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought shall not relieve such party from any other obligation it or they may have thereunder or otherwise under this Section 2.5(d). No party shall be liable for contribution with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or claim settled without its prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
               (e) The rights and obligations of the Company and the Selling Stockholders under this Section 2.5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
          2.6 Other Matters with Respect to Underwritten Offerings. In the event that Registrable Shares are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement in an underwritten offering pursuant to Section 2.1, the Company agrees to (a) enter into an underwriting agreement containing customary representations and warranties with respect to the business and operations of the Company and customary covenants and agreements to be performed by the Company, including without limitation customary provisions with respect to indemnification by the Company of the underwriters of such offering; (b) use its best efforts to cause its legal counsel to render customary opinions to the underwriters with respect to the Registration Statement; and (c) use its best efforts to cause its independent public accounting firm to issue customary “cold comfort letters” to the underwriters with respect to the Registration Statement.
          2.7 Information by Holder. Each holder of Registrable Shares included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such holder and the distribution proposed by such holder as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement.
          2.8 “Lock-Up” Agreement; Confidentiality of Notices. Each Stockholder, if requested by the Company and the managing underwriter of the Initial Public Offering, shall not sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Registrable Shares or other securities of the Company (excluding securities acquired in the Initial Public Offering or in the public market after such offering), without the consent of such underwriter, held by such Stockholder for a period of up to 180 days following the effective date of the Registration Statement for the Initial Public Offering; provided, that all Other Holders, all stockholders of the Company then holding at least 5% of the outstanding Common Stock (on an as-converted basis) and all officers and directors of the Company enter into similar agreements; and provided further that any such lock-up agreement shall provide that if the managing underwriter releases any shares from the lock-up with respect to such offering prior to the scheduled expiration date, the managing underwriter shall contemporaneously release a pro rata portion of the Registrable Shares from such lock-up.

- 14 -


 

     The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Registrable Shares or other securities subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of such 180-day period.
     Any Stockholder receiving any written notice from the Company regarding the Company’s plans to file a Registration Statement shall treat such notice confidentially and shall not disclose such information to any person other than as necessary to exercise its rights under this Agreement.
          2.9 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Purchasers holding at least two-thirds of the Registrable Shares then held by all Purchasers, enter into any agreement (other than this Agreement) with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company which grants such holder or prospective holder rights to demand the registration of shares of the Company’s capital stock, or to include such shares in a registration statement that would reduce the number of shares includable by the Holders.
          2.10 Rule 144 Requirements. After the earliest of (i) the closing of the sale of securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration Statement, (ii) the registration by the Company of a class of securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, or (iii) the issuance by the Company of an offering circular pursuant to Regulation A under the Securities Act, the Company agrees to:
               (a) make and keep current public information about the Company available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;
               (b) use its best efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); and
               (c) furnish to any holder of Registrable Shares upon request (i) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and (iii) such other reports and documents of the Company as such holder may reasonably request to avail itself of any similar rule or regulation of the Commission allowing it to sell any such securities without registration.
          2.11 Termination. All of the Company’s obligations to register Registrable Shares under Sections 2.1 and 2.2 shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) five years after the closing of the Initial Public Offering or (ii) the date on which no Stockholder holds any Registrable Shares.
     3. Right of First Refusal.
          3.1 Rights of Purchasers to Acquire Offered Securities.

- 15 -


 

               (a) The Company shall not issue, sell or exchange, agree to issue, sell or exchange, or reserve or set aside for issuance, sale or exchange, any Offered Securities, unless in each such case the Company shall have first complied with this Section 3.1. The Company shall deliver to each Purchaser an Offer, which shall (i) identify and describe the Offered Securities, (ii) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the Offered Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (iii) identify the persons or entities (if known) to which or with which the Offered Securities are to be offered, issued, sold or exchanged, and (iv) offer to issue and sell to or exchange with such Purchaser that is a Qualified Purchaser (A) such Qualified Purchaser’s Basic Amount and (B) such Qualified Purchaser’s Undersubscription Amount.

If the Basic Amounts subscribed for by all Qualified Purchasers are less than the total of all of the Basic Amounts available for purchase, then each Qualified Purchaser who has set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of Acceptance shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts subscribed for, the Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed for; provided, however, that if the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for exceed the Available Undersubscription Amount, each Qualified Purchaser who has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount shall be entitled to purchase only that portion of the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Undersubscription Amount subscribed for by such Qualified Purchaser bears to the total Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for by all Purchasers, subject to rounding by the Board of Directors to the extent it deems reasonably necessary.
               (c) The Company shall have 90 days from the expiration of the period set forth in Section 3.1(b) to issue, sell or exchange all or any part of the Refused Securities, but only to the offerees or purchasers described in the Offer (if so described therein) and only upon terms and conditions (including, without limitation, unit prices and interest rates) set forth in the Offer.
               (d) In the event the Company shall propose to sell less than all the Refused Securities, then each Qualified Purchaser may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, reduce the number or amount of the Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance to an amount that shall be not less than the number or amount of the Offered Securities that the Qualified Purchaser elected to purchase pursuant to Section 3.1(b) multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of Offered Securities the Company actually proposes to issue, sell or exchange (including Offered Securities to be issued or sold to Qualified Purchasers pursuant to Section 3.1(b) prior to such reduction) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the original amount of the Offered Securities. In the event that any Qualified Purchaser so elects to reduce the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not issue, sell or exchange more than the reduced

- 16 -


 

number or amount of the Offered Securities unless and until such securities have again been offered to the Qualified Purchasers in accordance with Section 3.1(a).
               (e) Upon (i) the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the Refused Securities or (ii) such other date agreed to by the Company and Qualified Purchasers who have subscribed for a majority of the Offered Securities subscribed for by the Qualified Purchasers, such Qualified Purchaser or Purchasers shall acquire from the Company and the Company shall issue to such Qualified Purchaser or Purchasers, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in the Notices of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to Section 3.1(d) if any of the Qualified Purchasers has so elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer.
               (f) The purchase by the Qualified Purchasers of any Offered Securities is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company and the Qualified Purchasers of a purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Qualified Purchasers and their respective counsel.

                    (ii) the issuance of any shares of Common Stock upon conversion of shares of convertible preferred stock;
                    (iii) the issuance of 103,533,435 (or such higher number as may be approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, including a majority of the Investor Directors) shares of Common Stock, or options with respect thereto, to employees, directors or officers of, or consultants to, the Company or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to any plan, agreement or arrangement approved by the Board of Directors of the Company and by a majority of the Investor Directors;
                    (iv) the issuance of securities solely in consideration for the acquisition (whether by merger or otherwise) by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of all or substantially all of the stock or assets of any other entity approved by the Board of Directors of the Company and by a majority of the Investor Directors;

          6.2 In determining the number of Shares owned by a Purchaser for purposes of exercising rights under this Agreement, (a) Shares owned by a Purchaser shall be deemed to include Shares which have been converted into Common Stock so long as such Common Stock is owned by such Purchaser and (b) all Shares held by affiliated entities or persons shall be aggregated together (provided that no shares shall be attributed to more than one entity or person within any such group of affiliated entities or persons), and such Purchaser may allocate the total number of Shares among such Purchaser and its affiliated entities in such proportions as they may elect in their sole discretion.
     7. General.
          7.1 Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.
          7.2 Specific Performance. In addition to any and all other remedies that may be available at law in the event of any breach of this Agreement, each Purchaser shall be entitled to specific performance of the agreements and obligations of the Company hereunder and to such other injunctive or other equitable relief as may be granted by a court of competent jurisdiction.
          7.3 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware (without reference to the conflicts of law provisions thereof).

     Any party may give any notice, request, consent or other communication under this Agreement using any other means (including, without limitation, personal delivery, messenger service, telecopy, first class mail or electronic mail), but no such notice, request, consent or other communication shall be deemed to have been duly given unless and until it is actually received by the party for whom it is intended. Any party may change the address to which notices, requests, consents or other communications hereunder are to be delivered by giving the other parties notice in the manner set forth in this Section 7.4.
          7.5 Complete Agreement; Waiver Under Old Investor Rights Agreement. The Company and the holders of at least 66 2/3% of the voting power of the Shares held by the Purchasers (as defined in the Old Investor Rights Agreement) hereby (A) agree that, as of the date of this Agreement, (i) the Old Investor Rights Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety by this Agreement, (ii) the provisions of the Old Investor Rights Agreement shall no longer be of any force or effect and (iii) this Agreement constitutes the only agreement, contract or understanding among the Series A Purchasers, the Series B Purchasers, the Series C Purchasers, Comerica, GE and the Common Stockholders relating to all or part of the subject matter of this Agreement and (B) waive their rights under Section 3.1 of the Old Investor Rights Agreement with respect to the sale of shares of Series C Preferred.
          7.6 Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may be amended or terminated and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived with respect to all parties to this Agreement (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), with the written consent of the Company and Purchasers holding Shares representing at least 66 2/3% of the voting power of all Shares then held by Purchasers; provided, however, Exhibit B may be amended by the Company from time to time to add additional Common Stockholders upon the designation of the Board of Directors including a majority of the Investor Directors, without the consent of the other parties hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may not be amended or terminated and the observance of any term of this Agreement may not be waived with respect to any Purchaser without the written consent of such Purchaser unless such amendment, termination or waiver applies to all Purchasers in the same fashion (it being agreed that a waiver of the provisions of Section 3 with respect to a particular transaction shall be deemed to apply to all Qualified

- 24 -


 

Purchasers in the same fashion if such waiver does so by its terms, notwithstanding the fact that certain Qualified Purchasers may nonetheless, by agreement with any Company, purchase securities in such transaction). Any amendment, termination or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 7.6 shall be binding on all parties hereto, even if they do not execute such consent. No waivers of or exceptions to any term, condition or provision of this Agreement, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or construed as, a further or continuing waiver of any such term, condition or provision. Notwithstanding this Section 7.6, the rights of first refusal established by Section 3 hereof may be amended, or any provision waived with respect to a particular transaction, with the written consent of the Company and the Qualified Purchasers holding two-thirds (2/3) of the Registrable Shares held by all Qualified Purchasers; provided, however, that notwithstanding any such waiver, in the event that a Purchaser actually purchases Offered Securities in any such transaction, then each other Qualified Purchaser shall be permitted to participate on a pro rata basis based on the other Qualified Purchaser purchasing the largest portion of such Qualified Purchaser’s pro rata share.
          7.7 Pronouns. Whenever the context may require, any pronouns used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns and pronouns shall include the plural, and vice versa.
          7.8 Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same document. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile signatures.
          7.9 Section Headings and References. The section headings are for the convenience of the parties and in no way alter, modify, amend, limit or restrict the contractual obligations of the parties. Any reference in this agreement to a particular section or subsection shall refer to a section or subsection of this Agreement, unless specified otherwise.

AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED INVESTOR RIGHTS
AGREEMENT
     This AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT (“Amendment”), dated as of August 13, 2007, amends that certain Second Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement (“Agreement”), dated as of July 11, 2007, by and among Adnexus Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the Purchasers (as defined therein), the Common Stockholders (as defined therein), General Electric Capital Corporation (“GE”) and Comerica Bank. Capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Agreement.
     WHEREAS, prior to the date hereof, the Company and the Purchasers entered into a Series C Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of July 11, 2007;
     WHEREAS, prior to the date hereof, the Company and the parties hereto entered into the Agreement;
     WHEREAS, the Company, the Purchasers, GE and Trink Inc. (“Trink”) have entered into an Amendment No. 1 to Series C Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement of even date herewith (the “Amendment to Purchase Agreement”);
     WHEREAS, as a condition precedent to the sale of shares of the Company’s Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, $.001 par value per share (“Series C Preferred Stock”), pursuant to the Amendment to Purchase Agreement, GE and Trink have required that the Agreement be amended in the manner set forth below; and
     WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 7.6 of the Agreement, any amendment of the Agreement requires the written consent of the Company and Purchasers holding Shares representing at least 66 2/3% of the voting power of all Shares then held by Purchasers.
     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and the consummation of the purchase and sale of shares of Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to the Amendment to Purchase Agreement, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, GE, Trink and the other parties hereto, representing at least 66 2/3% of the voting power of all Shares held by Purchasers, agree as follows:
     1. The Agreement is hereby amended such that Trink shall be a party to the Agreement as a Purchaser thereunder.
     2. The definition of “Purchase Agreement” contained in Section 1 of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
          “Purchase Agreement” means the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of July 11, 2007, between the Company and the Purchasers, as amended from time to time.

 


 

     3. The definition of “Series C Purchaser” contained in Section 1 of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
          “Series C Purchaser” means an individual or entity who purchases shares of Series C Preferred pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.
     4. The Company and the undersigned Qualified Purchasers holding two-thirds of the Registerable Shares held by all Qualified Purchasers hereby waive, on behalf of all Qualified Purchasers, their rights under Section 3 of the Agreement with respect to the sale of shares of Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to the Amendment to Purchase Agreement.
     5. Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, on and after the date hereof, each reference in the Agreement to “this Agreement,” “hereunder,” “hereof,” “herein” or words of like import, and each reference in the other documents entered into in connection with the Agreement, shall mean and be a reference to the Agreement, as amended hereby. Except as specifically amended above, the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed.
     6. This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original and all of which shall constitute the same document.
     7. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware (without reference to the conflicts of law provisions thereof).
