The Company shall immediately thereafter forward the Notice of Offer to the holders of the Preferred Stock. The Offeror shall also furnish to the Company and the holders of the Preferred Stock such additional information relating to the Offer as may reasonably be requested by the Company and the holders of the Preferred Stock. The Company and the holders of the Preferred Stock shall have the right and option, for a period of thirty (30) days after delivery of the Notice of Offer by the Offeror to the Company, to accept all or any portion of the Securities so offered at the purchase price and on the terms stated in the Notice of Offer.

Each Offeree shall have the right and option during such thirty (30) day period (x) to accept all or any of its Proportionate Percentage of the Securities so offered (and which the Company has elected not to purchase pursuant to the terms hereof) at the purchase price and on the terms stated in the Notice of Offer and (y) to offer, in any written notice of acceptance, to purchase any Securities not accepted by the other Offerees, in which case the Securities not accepted by the other Offerees shall be deemed to have been offered to and accepted by the Offerees which exercised their option under this clause (y) pro rata in accordance with their respective Proportionate Percentages (computed without including the Offerees who have not exercised their option to purchase Securities under this clause (y)), on the above-described terms and conditions, and if all of the offered Securities have not been fully subscribed by such Offerees, the remaining offered Securities will be reoffered to the Offerees who agreed to purchase their entire entitlement of offered Securities under clause (x) upon the terms set forth in the Notice of Offer until all such Securities are fully subscribed or until all such Offerees have subscribed for all such offered Securities which they desire to purchase, except that such Offerees must exercise their purchase rights within five (5) business days after receipt of all such reoffers. If any portion of the purchase price offered to be paid by a third party for the Securities is comprised of noncash consideration, then Offerees electing to purchase Securities as provided above may, at their option, pay either the same form of noncash consideration or the fair market value of such noncash consideration in their purchase of such Securities.
          ii. The rights of any Offeree to purchase Securities pursuant to the preceding paragraph may be assigned by such Offeree to any of its Affiliates or, in the case of the Sponsoring Investors, between or among themselves or to any of their respective Affiliates.

          iii. Transfers of Securities under the terms of this Section 8B shall be made at the offices of the Company on a mutually satisfactory business day within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of the applicable time periods. Delivery of certificates or other instruments evidencing such Securities, duly endorsed for transfer and free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, shall be made on such date against payment of the purchase price therefor.
          iv. If the Company and the Offerees shall not have accepted to purchase all the Securities offered for sale pursuant to the Notice of Offer, then the Offeror may transfer to a third party that number of the Securities not accepted by the Company and the Offerees at the price and on substantially equivalent terms stated in the original Notice of Offer, at any time within ninety (90) days after the expiration of the Offer. In the event the Securities are not transferred by the Offeror on such terms during such 90-day period, the restrictions of this Section 8B shall again become applicable to any transfer of Securities by the Offeror unless within such 90-day period the Offeror shall deliver to the Company a Notice of Offer with respect to an Offer of the same Securities at a purchase price which is less than the purchase price set forth in the previous Offer, in which case the Offer Period shall be reduced to fifteen (15) days and a new 90-day period shall begin. Nothing in this Section 8B shall preclude any party to this Agreement from engaging in discussions with any investment banker, potential transferee of Securities or other person with respect to a possible purchase of Securities from it, so long as the provisions of this Section 8B are complied with prior to the consummation of any transfer to which this Section 8B applies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any party to this Agreement may transfer any Securities to any Affiliate, limited partner, or family member of such party or any trust established for the benefit of the Shareholder or his/her family members without regard to this Section 8B, provided that such Affiliate, limited partner or family member agrees in writing to be bound by the obligations of such Shareholder in this Agreement.

In addition, following a Qualified Public Offering, if the holder of the Restricted Securities delivers to the Company an opinion of counsel that no subsequent transfer of such Restricted Securities will require registration under the Securities Act, the Company will promptly upon such contemplated transfer deliver new certificates for such Restricted Securities which do not bear the legend set forth in Section 11C. All prospective transferees of Restricted Securities shall, prior to the completion of any transfer, confirm to the Company in writing its agreement to be bound by the obligations contained in this Agreement.

The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Second Amended and Restated Reclassification Agreement

iv. The Purchaser, either individually or in conjunction with the Shareholder’s investment advisor, has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that he, she or it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of his, her or its investment in the Restricted Securities.

i. The Purchaser expressly acknowledges receipt of the financial information distributed in connection with this offering. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser has read and understood the terms and conditions set forth in the financial information.
ii.

iii. In making his, her or its decision to acquire the Restricted Securities, the Purchaser has relied solely upon independent investigations made by him, her or it. In addition, the Purchaser initially learned of the investment through a direct communication, and was never presented or solicited by (i) any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, (ii) any seminar or meeting whose attendees, including the Purchaser, had been invited as a result of, subsequent to or pursuant to any of the foregoing, or (iii) any other form of general solicitation.

Second Amended and Restated Reclassification Agreement

39


 

securities act of any state relating to the disposition of securities, provided an opinion of counsel is furnished, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company, that an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of such state act is available. The Purchaser understands the legal consequences of the foregoing to mean that he, she or it may be required to bear the economic risk of his, her or its investment in the shares of the Restricted Securities for an indefinite period or time. The Purchaser understands that any instruments initially representing the shares of the Restricted Securities shall bear legends restricting the transfer thereof. The Purchaser agrees not to resell or otherwise dispose of all or any shares of Restricted Securities acquired by the Purchaser, except as permitted by law, including, without limitation, any and all applicable provisions of this Section, the Agreement and any regulations under the Securities Act and any state law or regulations.

          G. Consent to Amendments/Waivers. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived and the Company may take any action herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by it, if and only if the Company has obtained the written consent of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of Series I Preferred Stock, Series II Preferred Stock, Series IV Preferred Stock, Series V Preferred Stock and Series V-1 Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class, and the written consent of the holders of ninety percent (90%) of the outstanding shares of any series of Preferred Stock the rights of which would be adversely affected by such amendment, waiver, action or omission in a manner different from any other series of Preferred Stock, such series voting together as a separate class; provided that if there is no Series I Preferred Stock, Series II Preferred Stock, Series IV Preferred Stock, Series V Preferred Stock or Series V-1 Preferred Stock outstanding, the provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived and the Company may take any action herein prohibited, if and only if the Company has obtained the written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Underlying Common Stock. No other course of dealing between the Company and the holder of any Series I Preferred Stock, Series II Preferred Stock, Series III Preferred Stock, Series IV Preferred Stock, Series V Preferred Stock or Series V-1 Preferred Stock, or Underlying Common Stock or any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under the Restated Certificate will operate as a waiver of any rights of any such holders. For purposes of this Agreement, shares of Series V Preferred Stock, Series V-1 Preferred Stock or Underlying Common Stock held by the Company will not be deemed to be outstanding. If the Company pays any consideration to any holder of Series I Preferred Stock, Series II Preferred Stock, Series IV Preferred Stock, Series V Preferred Stock, Series V-1 Preferred Stock or Underlying Common Stock for such holder’s consent to any amendment, modification or waiver, the Company shall also pay each other holder granting its consent hereunder equivalent consideration computed on a pro rata basis.

Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of this Agreement.
               L. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in two or more counterparts, any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party, but all such counterparts taken together will constitute one and the same Agreement.
               M. Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a Section of this Agreement.
               N. Governing Law. The laws of the State of Delaware will govern all issues to the extent they govern the internal affairs of the Company and its stockholders.

SCHEDULE 5A(vi)
MATERIAL CHANGES AND DEFAULTS
     The Balance Sheet reflects an investment in 1999 of approximately $5 million through ULTA Internet Holdings, Inc. in Jamin.com, private website involved in the retail perfume sales. That $5 million investment was converted as of the beginning of the current fiscal year to an investment in ULTA Holdings, LLC, whereby the Company, ULTA Internet Holdings, Inc., Online Retail Partners, LLC, ULTA Holdings, LLC and ULTA.com, LLC entered into various transactions for the development and operation of a retail website for the Company through ULTA Holdings, LLC. In light of the current market condition of the retail e-commerce segment and the fact that the retail website is not yet fully operational, the Company cannot be certain that it will not suffer a loss of the entire investment.
