ARTICLE 2
TRANSFERS; RIGHT OF REPURCHASE
 
2.1.         Transfer Restrictions.  In addition to (and without limitation to) any transfer or other restrictions applicable to the Shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreements or otherwise, Stockholder shall not, directly or indirectly, sell, convey, exchange, assign, pledge, encumber, gift, bequest, hypothecate or otherwise transfer or dispose of all or any portion of the Shares (including, but not limited to, any assignment of any beneficial, economic or other rights with respect thereto) (“Transfer”) without complying with the terms and conditions of this Agreement applicable thereto.  In addition, Stockholder agrees not to Transfer all or any portion of any Shares while such Shares are considered to be Restricted Shares (as defined below).
 
2.2.         Scope of Repurchase Right.  All Shares shall initially be Restricted Shares (as defined below) and shall be initially subject to a right (but not an obligation) of repurchase in favor of the Company (the “Right of Repurchase”) pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Stockholder shall not, directly or indirectly, via a sale or other Transfer of the Shares, any interest therein or otherwise, transfer, assign, encumber or otherwise dispose of any Shares during any period in which they are considered Restricted Shares and shall not transfer, assign, encumber or otherwise dispose of any Shares which are no longer considered Restricted Shares without complying with the terms and conditions of Article 3 hereof.  For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Restricted Shares” shall refer to Shares that are subject to the Right of Repurchase.
 
 

 

2.3.         Condition Precedent to Exercise of Right of Repurchase.  This Agreement is being entered into in connection with the employment by the Company of Georges Daou (“Daou”), the sole member of stockholder, as the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer.  The terms of Daou’s employment with the Company are set forth in that certain Employment Agreement, dated as of even date hereof, by and between Daou and the Company (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Daou Employment Agreement”).  In connection therewith, the Right of Repurchase may be exercised with respect to the Restricted Shares following either (a) a termination by Daou of the Daou Employment Agreement; or (b) a termination of the Daou Employment Agreement for Cause (as such term is defined in the Daou Employment Agreement) (the “Termination Event”).  Following the occurrence of the Termination Event, the Company may exercise the Right of Repurchase with respect to any or all of the Shares that are Restricted Shares at the time of such Termination Event for a period of ninety (90) days after the date of such Termination Event (the “Repurchase Period”).
 
2.4.         Release of Restricted Shares from the Right of Repurchase.  The Right of Repurchase will lapse as to the Restricted Shares (in which case such Restricted Shares shall cease to be considered Restricted Shares) in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth on Exhibit A, attached hereto, in each case provided there is no intervening Termination Event.
 
Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the Company’s Right of Repurchase shall lapse and any remaining Restricted Shares shall immediately be released from the Right of Repurchase, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control transaction (as defined below), provided that no Termination Event has occurred prior to the consummation of the Change in Control.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Change of Control” shall mean, after the date hereof, (i) the consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity or any other corporate reorganization, if persons who were not stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or other reorganization own, immediately after such merger, consolidation or other reorganization, fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting power of the outstanding securities of each of (A) the continuing or surviving entity and (B) any direct or indirect parent corporation of such continuing or surviving entity; (ii) a stockholder approved sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or (iii) a transaction where the holders of fifty percent (50%) or more of the capital stock of the Company, on a fully-diluted basis, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the shares of the capital stock of the Company held by them, in both form and substance, to a third party.
 
2.5.         Exercise of Repurchase Right.  The Right of Repurchase shall be exercisable only by written notice delivered to the Stockholder prior to the expiration of the Repurchase Period specified in Subsection 2.3 above (the “Repurchase Notice”).  The Repurchase Notice shall set forth the date on which the repurchase is to be effected (the “Closing Date”).  The Closing Date shall not be more than thirty (30) calendar days after the date of the Repurchase Notice.  The Company shall pay to the Stockholder on the Closing Date the purchase price determined according to Subsection 2.6 below by delivering a cashiers check in the amount thereof.  The Right of Repurchase shall terminate with respect to any Shares for which it has not been timely exercised pursuant to this Subsection 2.5.
 
2.6.         Repurchase Price.  If the Company exercises the Right of Repurchase with respect to any of the Restricted Shares, it shall pay the Stockholder an amount equal to $0.001 per Restricted Share repurchased by the Company.
 
2.7.         Termination for Cause.  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, following any Termination Event which occurs following an act or omission by Daou which constitutes Cause, all of the Shares which are then Restricted Shares, shall, on and as of the date of such Termination Event, immediately, and without the need for any further action of any of the parties hereto, be forfeited to the Company and such Shares which are forfeited shall be of no further force or effect and Stockholder shall no longer have any rights, privileges or preferences (economic or otherwise) with respect to such forfeited Shares.

2.8.         Adjustment of Shares or Substituted Securities.  In the event of the declaration of stock dividend, the declaration of an extraordinary dividend payable in a form other than stock, a spin-off, a stock split, an adjustment in conversion ratio, a recapitalization or a similar transaction affecting the Company’s outstanding securities without receipt of consideration, any new, substituted or additional securities or other property (including money paid other than as an ordinary cash dividend) that by reason of such transaction are distributed with respect to any Shares or into which such Shares thereby become convertible shall immediately be subject to the Right of Repurchase.  Appropriate adjustments to reflect the distribution of such securities or property shall be made to the number and/or class of the Shares.  After each such transaction, appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the price per share to be paid upon the exercise of the Right of Repurchase in order to reflect any change in the Company’s outstanding securities effected without receipt of consideration therefor; provided, however, that the aggregate purchase price payable for the Shares shall remain the same.
 
2.9.         Termination of Rights as Stockholder.  If the Company makes available, at the time and place and in the amount and form provided in this Agreement, the consideration for the Restricted Shares to be repurchased in accordance with this Section 2, then after such time the person or entity from whom such Restricted Shares are to be repurchased shall no longer have any rights as a holder of such shares (other than the right to receive payment of such consideration in accordance with this Agreement).  Such Restricted Shares shall be deemed to have been repurchased in accordance with the applicable provisions hereof.
