RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to sell up to an aggregate of 1,416,666 additional shares of the Company’s Series C-1 Preferred Stock (“Shares”) to the Investor, at a purchase price of $1.80 per Share, and the Investor wishes to purchase Shares from the Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, agreements and conditions, and upon acknowledgement of each of the parties of the receipt of valuable consideration, the parties herein agree as follows:

1. Purchase and Sale of Shares.

1.1 The Closing. At the Closing (as defined below), the Company shall issue and sell to Investor such number of Shares as is set forth immediately below Investor’s name on the signature pages hereto against delivery to the Company by Investor of an amount equal to $1.80 times the number of Shares to be purchased by the Investor (the “Purchase Price”), paid by (a) cash (by check or wire transfer) in United States Dollars to the Company to be held in escrow until the Closing, for release to the Company thereafter or (b) cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to Investor. Promptly after the Closing, the Company shall deliver to Investor a duly executed certificate representing the Shares which Investor is purchasing hereunder. The purchase and sale transaction contemplated hereby will close on the first business day immediately following the satisfaction of the Closing conditions set forth herein, which is targeted to be no later than 5:00 p.m., Pacific Time on             , 2009, as such date and time may be modified by the Company in its sole discretion (such day, the “Closing”).

1.2 Additional Closing(s).

(a) Conditions of Additional Closing(s). At any time and from time to time following the Closing, the Company may, at one or more additional closings (each an “Additional Closing”), without obtaining the signature, consent or permission of Investor, offer and sell to other investors (the “New Investors”), at a price of $1.80 per Share, up to that number of Shares that is equal to 1,416,666 Shares less the number of Shares previously issued and sold by the Company. New Investors may include persons or entities who are already owners of shares of the Company’s Series C-1 Preferred Stock or other capital stock.

(b) Amendments. The Company and the New Investors purchasing Shares at each Additional Closing will execute a Subscription Agreement in substantially the same form hereof, and the New Investors will, to the extent not already a party thereto, execute counterpart signature pages to: (i) the Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A, as amended (the “Investors’ Rights Agreement”), (ii) the Amended and Restated Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit B, as amended (the “ROFR Agreement”), and (iii) the Amended and Restated Voting Agreement in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit C, as amended (the “Voting Agreement”) (the Investors’ Rights Agreement, ROFR Agreement and Voting Agreement, as such agreements may be amended, collectively, the “Related Agreements”). Such New Investors will, upon delivery to the Company of such signature pages, become parties to, and bound by, the Related Agreements, each to the same extent as if they had been an Investor at the time of issuance of the first share of Series C-1 Preferred Stock.

Except as set forth in the Financial Statements (as defined in Section 2.25), the Company does not have any liabilities (whether accrued, absolute, unliquidated, contingent or otherwise, whether or not known to the Company, whether due or to become due and regardless of when asserted) arising out of transactions entered into at or prior to the Closing, or any action or inaction at or prior to the Closing or any state of facts existing at or prior to the Closing other than (i) liabilities and obligations that have arisen after March 31, 2009 in the ordinary course of business (none of which is material and none of which is a liability resulting from breach of contract, breach of warranty, tort, infringement, claim or lawsuit), or (ii) obligations under contracts and commitments incurred in the ordinary course of business that would not be required to be reflected in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

2.14 Permits. The Company has all franchises, permits, licenses and any similar authority necessary for the conduct of its business as now being conducted by it, except to the extent the lack of which would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adversely Effect.

(a) Except as set forth in Section 2.14(b), to its knowledge, the Company is not in violation of any applicable statute, law or regulation relating to the environment or occupational health and safety, and, to its knowledge, no material expenditures are or will be required in order to comply with any such existing statute, law or regulation.

(b) The US Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) has issued recent guidance regarding the classification of carbon nanotubes under the Toxic Substances Control Act. The EPA has stated that it now considers carbon nanotubes to be “new chemicals” rather than materials previously listed on the TSCA Inventory, such as synthetic graphite or other carbon compounds. The Company is in the process of reviewing its compliance with this guidance and has filed paperwork with the EPA. Accordingly, the Company withholds any representation or warranty regarding the matters disclosed in this Section 2.14(b), including its compliance with the new EPA guidance.

2.16 Disclosure. The Company has fully provided Investor with all the information that Investor has requested in writing for deciding whether to purchase the Shares. Neither this Agreement (including all the exhibits and schedules hereto) nor any other statements or certificates made or delivered in connection herewith contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements herein or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made.

2.17 Registration Rights. Except as provided in the Investors’ Rights Agreement, the Company has not granted or agreed to grant any registration rights, including piggyback rights, to any person or entity.

2.18 Title to Property and Assets. The property and assets used by the Company in its business are owned by the Company free and clear of all mortgages, liens, loans and encumbrances, except for (i) statutory liens for the payment of current taxes that are not yet delinquent and (ii) for liens, encumbrances and security interests that arise in the ordinary course of business and/or pursuant to applicable law, and minor defects in title, none of which, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. With respect to the property and assets it leases, the Company is in compliance with such leases and, to its knowledge, holds a valid leasehold interest free of any liens, claims or encumbrances, subject to clauses (i)-(ii) of the foregoing sentence, except to the extent the failure to be in compliance or hold a valid leasehold interest would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

2.19 Labor Agreements and Actions. The Company is not bound by or subject to any contract, commitment or arrangement with any labor union, and no labor union has requested or, to the Company’s knowledge, has sought to represent any of the employees, representatives or agents of the Company. There is no strike or other labor dispute involving the Company pending, or to the Company’s knowledge, threatened in writing, that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, nor is the Company aware of any labor organization activity involving its employees. The Company is not aware that any officer or key employee, or that any group of key employees, intends to terminate their employment with the Company, nor does the Company have a present intention to terminate the employment of any of the foregoing. The employment of each officer and employee of the Company is terminable at the will of the Company. The Company is not a party to or bound by any currently effective employment contract, deferred compensation agreement, bonus plan, incentive plan, profit sharing plan, retirement agreement or other employee compensation agreement. To its knowledge, the Company has complied in all material respects with all applicable state and federal equal employment opportunity and other laws related to employment.

2.20 Brokers Fees. The Company expects to pay third-party finders or advisors finder’s fees (in cash and/or equity) for Shares placed by such third party. For the sake of clarity, no finder’s fees will be paid for Shares not placed by a third-party finder or advisor.

The Company has not received any communications alleging that the Company has violated or, by conducting its business as presently proposed, would violate any of the Intellectual Property of any other person or entity. The Company is not aware that any of its employees is obligated under any contract (including licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature) or other agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative agency, that would interfere with the use of his or her best efforts to promote the interests of the Company or that would conflict with the Company’s business as presently proposed to be conducted. Neither the execution nor delivery of this Agreement, nor the carrying on of the Company’s business by the employees of the Company, nor the conduct of the Company’s business as presently proposed, will, to the Company’s knowledge, conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or instrument under which any of such employees is now obligated.

By executing this Agreement, Investor further represents that Investor does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Shares.

regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the Shares and the business, properties, prospects and financial condition of the Company. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the representations and warranties of the Company in Section 2 of this Agreement or the right of Investor to rely thereon.

3.4 Investment Experience. Investor is an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that he/she/it is able to bear the economic risk of its investment, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Shares. If other than an individual, Investor also represents it has not been organized for the purpose of acquiring the Shares.

3.5 Accredited Investor. Investor is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of SEC Rule 501 of Regulation D. All of the information in the Investor Questionnaire delivered by Investor to the Company in connection with Investor’s purchase of the Shares remains complete, true and correct as of the Closing or the Additional Closing, as applicable.

3.6 Restricted Securities. Investor understands that the Shares it is purchasing are characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering, and that under such laws and applicable regulations, such Shares may be resold without registration under the Act only in certain limited circumstances. In the absence of an effective registration statement covering the Shares or an available exemption from registration under the Act, the Shares (and any Common Stock issued on conversion of the Shares) must be held indefinitely.

3.7 No Brokers. Investor has not taken any action which would give rise to any claim by any person for brokerage commissions, finder’s fees or similar payments relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

3.8 Legends. It is understood that the certificates evidencing the Shares may bear one or all of the following legends:

(a) “These securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. They may not be sold, offered for sale, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of a registration statement in effect with respect to the securities under such Act or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that such registration is not required or unless sold pursuant to Rule 144 of such Act.”

(b) Legends required to indicate that the Shares are subject to the terms of the Investors Rights Agreement and ROFR Agreement.

(c) Any legend required by applicable laws.

4. Optional Conversion of the Shares.

4.1 Optional Conversion. Investor shall have the right, by giving notice thereof to the Company pursuant to this Section 4, to convert all (but not less than all) of the outstanding Shares held by the Investor (and purchased under this Agreement) into shares of the Company’s Qualified Stock (as defined below), pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4 concurrently with the closing of a Qualified Transaction (as defined below)(or the first closing in a series of closings).

4.2 Qualified Transaction. A “Qualified Transaction” shall mean the Company’s receipt of at least $2,500,000 in proceeds from: (i) a sale by the Company, in one or more related transactions, of a new series of preferred stock (the “Qualified Stock”) in a financing event (the “Qualified

 

9


Financing”); or (ii) a combination of (a) a sale of Qualified Stock as described in Section 4.2(i), and (b) the sale by the Company of some or all of its assets and/or business operations in materials for anti-static polymers.

4.3 Notice. The Company shall provide the Investor with a notice no later than 15 business days prior to the closing of the Qualified Transaction indicating the proposed closing date, together with the terms and conditions of the Qualified Transactions, the rights, preferences and privileges of the Qualified Stock and the conversion calculation determined in accordance with Section 4.4 below. Each Investor shall have the right to exercise its rights to convert its Shares into the Qualified Stock under Section 4.1 by giving notice thereof to the Company no later than 5 business days prior to the proposed closing date.

4.4 Conversion Calculation. In connection with a Qualified Transaction, the Shares shall be converted into Qualified Stock in accordance with the following formula:

A = B * [(C ÷ D) * E]

A = the number of shares of Qualified Stock issuable to Investor in connection with the Qualified Transaction;

B = the number of Shares purchased by Investor pursuant to this Agreement;

C = $1.80;

D = the price per share at which the Qualified Stock is sold to investors in the Qualified Financing; and

E = 1.10.

For the avoidance of doubt, the calculation in this Section 4.3 shall be performed in the following order: (i) divide C by D, (ii) multiply the amount in (i) by E, and (iii) multiply the amount in (ii) by B.

4.5 Deliverables. Upon any conversion of Shares under this Section 4, the Investor will execute and deliver to the Company, at the closing of such Qualified Financing, such stock purchase agreement, investors’ rights agreement, co-sale agreement, voting and/or other agreements as are entered into by the investors in the Qualified Financing generally.
