As a condition to the willingness of First Capital to enter into the Contribution Agreement and as an inducement and in consideration therefor, First Capital and each Stockholder have agreed to enter into this Agreement.

 

The parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

 

SECTION 1. Stockholder Meetings; Voting. Each Stockholder hereby agrees that from and after the date hereof and until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 7, such Stockholder shall appear in person or by proxy at any meeting of the stockholders of the Company called for purposes, and any adjournment or postponement thereof, or in any other circumstances upon which a vote, consent or other approval with respect to the Contribution Agreement or the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement is sought by the Company and approved by the board of directors of the Company and recommended to the stockholders of the Company by the board of directors that include any of the following (i) the adoption of the Contribution Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement, or (ii) the approval of the number of shares or voting power that can be issued or granted by the Company to First Capital or its stockholders or Affiliates; provided, however, that if a proposal presented to the stockholders of the Company involves the approval of the issuance of the Company’s securities in connection with the contribution of the Mandatory Entity Interests or the Optional Entity Interests, then the board shall have approved and recommended this proposal to the stockholders of the Company by a vote of at least six board members in favor of the proposal. The Company shall notify the Stockholders of whether such requirement has been met.

 

   

 

 

Each Stockholder hereby agrees that from and after the date hereof and until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 7, such Stockholder shall exercise all of his, her or its rights as a holder of securities of the Company to vote as follows to the extent that the following are approved by the board of directors of the Company and recommended to the stockholders of the Company: (i) in favor of the adoption of the Contribution Agreement and the approval of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement; (ii) in favor of any proposal seeking approval for the issuance to the Contributor or its designees of common stock of the Company (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock of the Company) equal to 20 percent or more of the common stock or 20 percent or more of the voting power outstanding before the issuance, in order that (A) any shares of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company previously issued by the Company to the Contributor or its designees can be immediately converted into Common Stock of the Company, (B) the Warrant (as defined in the Contribution Agreement) can be fully exercised for Common Stock of the Company in accordance with its terms, and (iii) all shares of Common Stock of the Company issuable to the Contributor or its designees pursuant to the Contribution Agreement can be issued to the Contributor as provided therein , (iii) against any proposal made in opposition to, or in competition with, the matters set forth in (i) or (ii) above; and (iv) against any other action that is intended, or would reasonably be expected to, impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, discourage or adversely affect the adoption of the Contribution Agreement and approval of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement; at any meeting of the stockholders of the Company.

The Company shall notify the Stockholders of whether such requirement has been met.

(iii) For purposes hereof, “Affiliate” shall mean, with respect to any entity, any other person or entity directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with such entity.

SECTION 5. Confidentiality.

 

(a) Confidentiality by the Stockholders. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, each Stockholder agrees to treat and hold as confidential, any confidential or proprietary information of First Capital relating, except for any such information which is generally known to the public or becomes generally known to the public, other than as a result of a disclosure by such Stockholder and not due to the breach of this Agreement (“Confidential Information”), and to refrain from disclosing any Confidential Information, except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5. Unless otherwise public information, the existence of any business negotiations, discussions, consultations or agreements in progress between the parties hereto, or between First Capital and certain third parties, shall not be released to any form of public media without the prior written consent of First Capital. Each Stockholder agrees that it shall treat all Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care as it accords to its own information of like nature, and each Stockholder represents that it exercises at least reasonable care to protect its own confidential information. Each Stockholder may disclose Confidential Information only to those of its employees, officers, directors, shareholders, partners, members, or owners of a similar equity interest in the Stockholder, or any of Stockholder’s agents or representatives (all such persons or entities, collectively, “Stockholder Representatives”) who (i) need to know such information for the purposes of advising such Stockholder with respect to the Contribution Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement and (ii) are informed by such Stockholder of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and the obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Confidential Information. Each Stockholder also agrees to be responsible for enforcing the terms of this letter agreement as to its Stockholder Representatives and maintaining the confidentiality of the Confidential Information and to take such action, legal or otherwise, to the extent necessary to cause them to comply with the terms and conditions of this letter agreement and thereby prevent any disclosure or prohibited use of Confidential Information by any of its Stockholder Representatives.

 

(b) Disclosure Required by Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Stockholder or any of the Stockholder’s Representatives may disclose Confidential Information without First Capital’s consent to the extent required by law or legal process (provided that, unless prohibited by law, it first provides prompt notice to First Capital so that First Capital may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or consent to the disclosure). In the event the Stockholder or any of the Stockholder’s Representatives are required to so disclose Confidential Information, the Stockholder or such Representative may furnish that portion (and only that portion) of the Confidential Information that such person or entity has been advised by legal counsel that it is legally compelled or otherwise required to disclose, and such person or entity shall use all reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded any Confidential Information so disclosed and, if requested by First Capital, shall use reasonable efforts to assist First Capital in obtaining an order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Confidential Information so disclosed.

 

(c) Stockholder Acknowledgment. Each Stockholder also acknowledges and agrees that he, she or it is aware of the restrictions imposed by the United States federal securities laws and other applicable foreign and domestic laws on a person or entity in possession of material non-public information about a public company and that such Stockholder will comply with such laws.

 

SECTION 6. Fiduciary Responsibilities. No Stockholder executing this Agreement who is or becomes during the term hereof a director or officer of the Company makes (or shall be deemed to have made) any agreement or understanding herein in his or her capacity as such director or officer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Stockholder signs solely in his or her capacity as the record owner of such Stockholder’s Subject Securities and nothing herein shall limit or affect any actions taken by such Stockholder (or a designee of such Stockholder) in his or her capacity as an officer or director of the Company in exercising his or her or the Company’s or the Company’s Board of Directors’ rights in connection with the Contribution Agreement or otherwise and such actions shall not be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement.
