EXHIBIT A FORM OF WILSON SONSINI GOODRICH & ROSATI, P.C. LEGAL OPINION 1. The Company has been duly incorporated, is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of Delaware. 2. Each of the Note Purchase Agreement, Indenture and the Investors Rights Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and is a valid and binding agreement of, the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms. 3. The Notes have been duly authorized by the Company and, when executed and authenticated in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and delivered to and paid for by the Investors in accordance with the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement, will be valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to customary exceptions of such counsel. 4. The shares of Common Stock initially issuable upon conversion of the Notes (the "Conversion Shares") have been duly authorized and reserved and, when issued upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with the terms of the Notes and the Indenture, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. 5. The issuance and sale of the Notes being delivered on the date hereof, the issuance of the Conversion Shares, if any (assuming conversion on the date hereof pursuant to the terms of the Notes and the Indenture) and the execution, delivery and performance of the Indenture, the Notes, the Note Purchase Agreement, and the Registration Rights Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions therein contemplated, do not conflict with or did not result in a breach or violation by the Company of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any Reviewed Agreement, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of the certificate of incorporation or the bylaws of the Company or any U.S. federal or California state statute, rule or order or regulation known to such counsel of any U.S. federal or California or Delaware (under the DGCL) state court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties. For purposes of this opinion, "Reviewed Agreement" shall mean those agreements currently in effect that would be filed by the Company as an Exhibit to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K as if such Report was filed on the date of such opinion. 6. No consent, approval, authorization, order of, registration or qualification of or with any U.S. federal or California or Delaware (under the DGCL) state court or governmental agency or body is required for the issue and sale of the Notes or the execution, delivery of and consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated by the Note Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or the Indenture, except (i) the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") of the Notes and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement and the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (the "Trust Indenture Act"), and (ii) as otherwise contemplated by the Transaction Documents. 7.
