4. Company Agreements.

 

(a) The Company covenants and agrees that all shares issuable and deliverable to Holder upon exercise of the Option shall, upon issuance and the payment of the Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and non-assessable, and shall be free from all taxes, liens, and charges with respect to the issuance thereof (other than any encumbrances created by or imposed upon the Holder), and shall have the same rights, preferences and privileges, and be subject to the same restrictions, as the Option Shares generally.

 

(b) The Company further covenants and agrees that during the period within which the Option evidenced hereby may be exercised, the Company will at all times reserve such number of shares as may be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of the Option hereby.

 

(c) The Company will use reasonable commercial efforts to take all such action to assure that such shares of Option Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation.

 

(d) If this Option is mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Option, a new Option, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity, if requested.

 

5. No Fractional Shares; Share Certificates.  No fractional shares shall be issued upon exercise of this Option.  If upon exercise of this Option a fractional share results, the Company shall pay the Holder the cash value of that fractional share based on the Exercise Price.  The certificates representing any shares purchased upon exercise of this Option shall be delivered to the Holder as soon as practicable after surrender of this Option to the Company (but in no event later than five (5) calendar days after the date of exercise).

 

6. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares.  The initial Exercise Price per share shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as hereinafter provided.  Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price, the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to purchase at the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of shares obtained by dividing the product of the number of shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment and the Exercise Price immediately preceding such adjustment by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.

 

(a) Subdivision or Combination of Option Shares.  If the Company at any time subdivides its outstanding shares of Option Shares into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced, and conversely, if the outstanding shares of Option Shares shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased.

 

(b) Stock Dividends.  If at any time or from time to time the holders of Option Shares (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Option) shall have received or become entitled to receive, without payment therefor, additional shares of Option Shares, or any shares of stock or other securities whether or not such securities are at any time directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Option Shares, or any rights or options to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any of the foregoing by way of dividend or other distribution, then and in each such case, Holder hereof shall, upon the exercise of this Option, be entitled to receive, in addition to the number of shares of Option Shares receivable thereupon, and without payment of any additional consideration therefore, the amount of stock and other securities which such Holder would hold on the date of such exercise had it been the holder of record of such Option Shares as of the date on which holders of Option Shares received or became entitled to receive such shares and/or all other additional stock and other securities.

 

 

(c) Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger.  If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, shall be effected, then, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions herein specified and in lieu of the Option Shares of the Company immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise or the Options, such shares of stock, securities or properties (including cash paid as partial consideration) (collectively, the “Substitute Securities”) as may be issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of Option Shares equal to the number of shares of Option Shares issuable upon exercise of the Option immediately prior to such reorganization, or reclassification, and in any such case, appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any Substitute Securities thereafter deliverable upon the exercise thereof.  The above provisions of this Section 6(c) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations and reclassification.

 

(d) Adjustments; Generally.  The form of this Option need not be changed because of any adjustment pursuant to this Section 6.  Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 6, the Company shall promptly provide to Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number of Option Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Option (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based.

 

7. No Stockholder Rights.  Nothing contained herein shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder or any other person any rights, preferences or privileges as a stockholder of the Company, until and only to the extent that this Option is exercised for Option Shares.

 

8. Restrictions on Transfer.  Holder hereby acknowledges that neither this Option nor the shares of Option Shares have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or any state securities laws, as amended (“Blue Sky Laws”).  Holder represents that this Option has been acquired for investment purposes and not with a view to distribution or resale and acknowledges that this Option may not be pledged, hypothecated, sold, made subject to a security interest, or otherwise transferred without (a) an effective registration statement for such Option under the Securities Act and such applicable Blue Sky Laws or (b) an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that registration is not required under the Securities Act or under any applicable Blue Sky Laws.  Transfer of the Option Shares issued upon the exercise of this Option shall be restricted in the same manner and to the same extent as the Option and the other shares of the Company and the certificates, if any, representing such shares of Option Shares shall bear substantially the following legends:

 

THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR TRANSFERRED UNTIL (a) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS SHALL HAVE BECOME EFFECTIVE WITH REGARD THERETO OR (b) IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY, REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH PROPOSED TRANSFER.

 

 

THE SHARES SUBJECT TO THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO TRANSFER AND OTHER RESTRICTIONS PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF THE COMPANY’S (a) INVESTORS’ RIGHTS AGREEMENT, (b) RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL AND CO-SALE AGREEMENT, (c) REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT AND (d) VOTING AGREEMENT, EACH DATED AS OF OCTOBER 30, 2009.  COPIES OF THESE AGREEMENTS MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE COMPANY’S ASST. SECRETARY.

(e) Waiver; Delays or Omissions.  No waivers of any breach of this Option extended by any party hereto to any other party shall be construed as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any other party hereto or with respect to any subsequent breach.  It is agreed that no delay or omission to exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to any party, upon any breach, default, or noncompliance by another party under this Option, shall impair any such right, power, or remedy, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach, default, or noncompliance, or any acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach, default, or noncompliance thereafter occurring.  It is further agreed that any waiver, permit, consent, or approval of any kind or character on any party’s part of any breach, default, or noncompliance under this Option or any waiver on such party’s part of any provisions or conditions of this Option must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.  All remedies, either under this Option by law, or otherwise afforded to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative.
