NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2005

(Unaudited)

 

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Medivation, Inc. (Medivation or the Company), together with its wholly owned operating subsidiary Medivation Neurology, Inc. (MNI), is a life sciences company based in San Francisco, California. Prior to June 8, 2005, the Company’s corporate name was Orion Acquisition Corp. II and MNI’s corporate name was Medivation, Inc. The Company’s corporate strategy is to identify and acquire development stage medical technologies—including both pharmaceuticals and medical devices—that have promising scientific, clinical and commercial prospects and strong intellectual property positions, and to develop those technologies through a largely outsourced model to achieve valuation-enhancing milestone events. The Company currently has acquired and is developing three technologies, two of which are small molecule drugs targeted at Alzheimer’s disease and the third of which is a family of small molecule drugs targeted at hormone-refractory prostate cancer. The Company also is evaluating other medical technologies for potential acquisition.

 

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B. Accordingly they do not include all of the information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of management of Medivation, the interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herewith contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) necessary for their fair presentation. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto, together with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis, for the year ended December 31, 2004. The interim results for the period ended June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year.

 

3. THE MERGER

 

(a) Description of the Merger

 

MNI became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company pursuant to a merger on December 17, 2004 (the Merger). Pursuant to the Merger, the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of MNI were converted into an aggregate of 331,925 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock, which converted into 6,638,490 shares of the Company’s Common Stock on May 20, 2005, and Medivation’s pre-Merger cash balances of approximately $1,929,000 became available to fund the ongoing operations of the combined Company. Following the Merger, the business conducted by the Company is the business conducted by MNI prior to the Merger.

 

(b) Accounting Treatment of the Merger; Financial Statement Presentation

 

The Merger was accounted for as a reverse merger under generally accepted accounting principles. Therefore: (1) the consolidated financial statements of the Company for periods prior to December 17, 2004 reflect only the operations of MNI, and (2) the consolidated financial statements present the previously issued shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Common Stock of the Company as having been issued pursuant to the Merger on December 17, 2004, and the shares of Company Common Stock issued to the former MNI stockholders pursuant to the Merger as having been outstanding since MNI’s inception (September 4, 2003). No goodwill or other intangible asset was recorded as a result of the Merger.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

(a) Development Stage Company

 

For the period from inception (September 4, 2003) to date, the Company has been a development stage enterprise, and accordingly, the Company’s operations have been directed primarily toward developing its proprietary technologies. The Company has experienced net losses since its inception and had an accumulated deficit of $7,159,730 (unaudited) at June 30, 2005. Such losses and accumulated deficit resulted from the Company’s absence of revenue and significant costs incurred in the development of the Company’s proprietary technologies. The Company expects to incur substantial losses as it continues its research and development activities, particularly the conduct of clinical trials.

 

(b) Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires that management make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and assumptions principally relate to services performed by third parties but not yet invoiced, estimates of the fair value of stock options issued to employees and consultants and estimates of the probability and potential magnitude of contingent liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

(c) Short-Term Investments

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of more than three months but no longer than twelve months to be short-term investments. See Note 5.

 

(d) Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment purchases incurred to date have been minor and have thus been expensed through June 30, 2005. Property and equipment purchases are recorded at cost. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed in the period incurred.

 

(e) Stock Based Compensation; Adoption of SFAS 123R

 

Effective January 1, 2005, the Company adopted SFAS 123R, “Share-Based Payment,” which requires the Company to record as an expense in its financial statements the fair value of all stock-based compensation awards. See Note 7(d). The application of SFAS 123R to stock-based compensation awards granted by the Company prior to January 1, 2005, all of which were granted to consultants, does not require any retroactive changes to the Company’s financial statements for prior periods.

 

(f) Loss per Common Share

 

The Company calculates loss per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share.” Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the loss available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.

 

The following potential common shares have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, and for the period from inception (September 4, 2003) to June 30, 2005, because they are antidilutive:

 

Series A Preferred Stock

   110,000

Warrants

   1,049,991

Options

   1,379,348
    

TOTAL

   2,539,339
    

 

7


In addition, 6,638,490 potential common shares issuable upon conversion of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock also have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for periods prior to May 20, 2005, because they are antidilutive.

 

(g) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement of Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” an amendment to Accounting Principles Bulletin (APB) Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes”, and SFAS No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements” though SFAS No. 154 carries forward the guidance in APB No. 20 and SFAS No. 3 with respect to accounting for changes in estimates, changes in reporting entity, and the correction of errors. SFAS No. 154 establishes new standards on accounting for changes in accounting principles, whereby all such changes must be accounted for by retrospective application to the financial statements of prior periods unless it is impracticable to do so. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and error corrections made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005, with early adoption permitted for changes and corrections made in years beginning after May 2005.

 

5. SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

 

The Company accounts for its short-term investments in accordance with SFAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.” At June 30, 2005, short-term investments consisted of U.S. Treasury bills and Federal National Mortgage Association discount notes, with maturities ranging from July 2005 to November 2005. All of these securities were purchased in 2005. The Company has accounted for the investments as held-to-maturity since it has the positive intent and ability to hold all of these securities to maturity, and thus has recorded them at their aggregate amortized cost basis of $5,958,540 (unaudited) in its financial statements. During the six-months ended June 30, 2005, the Company recorded interest income of $84,089 (unaudited) on its short-term investments.

 

6. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

 

At June 30, 2005, intellectual property consisted of three patent families—one covering the use of Dimebon and certain related compounds to treat neurodegenerative diseases, one covering the use of Dimebon and certain related compounds for anti-aging purposes, and one covering the NT0904 family of compounds and uses thereof. Cash purchases of patent rights totaled $0 (unaudited) and $50,000 (unaudited), respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, and $225,000 (unaudited) for the period from inception (September 4, 2003) to June 30, 2005. This intellectual property is being amortized over periods ranging from 156 months to 248 months. Amortization expense on the Company’s intellectual property was $4,137 (unaudited) and $1,830 (unaudited), respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, and $10,410 (unaudited) for the period from inception (September 4, 2003) to June 30, 2005.

 

7. STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY

 

(a) Series B Preferred Stock

 

Pursuant to the Merger, the Company issued to the former stockholders of MNI 331,925 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, convertible into 6,638,490 shares of Common Stock. Because the Company lacked sufficient authorized shares of Common Stock to issue upon such conversion, the Series B Preferred Stock was recorded as a liability. On May 20, 2005, the Company’s stockholders approved an increase in the authorized shares of Common Stock. Effective on that date, the Series B Preferred Stock converted into Common Stock, and the Series B Preferred Stock liability was reclassified as equity.

 

(b) Common Stock

 

On December 17, 2004, the Company issued 7,741,935 shares of its Common Stock in a private placement to accredited investors at a price of $1.55 per share (the Offering), 6,903,399 of which were sold for cash, generating $10,700,270 in gross proceeds. The remaining 838,536 shares were issued in exchange for cancellation of outstanding bridge notes of MNI, in the aggregate amount of $1,299,731, which were assumed by the Company in the Merger. The shares issued in the Offering were not subject to refund, redemption or rescission and, accordingly, were included as a component of stockholders’ equity, net of the applicable costs.

 

MDB Capital Group LLC (MDB) acted as placement agent with respect to certain investors in the Offering. As partial compensation for these services, the Company issued to MDB and certain of its affiliates an aggregate of 572,878 shares of Common Stock. The cost of these shares, in the amount of $887,961 based on the $1.55 purchase price of the shares in the

 

8


Offering, was offset against additional paid-in-capital in the year ended December 31, 2004. MDB also received warrants as partial compensation for its placement agent services (Note 7(c)).

 

Brock Capital Group LLC (Brock) acted as placement agent with respect to certain investors in the Offering. As compensation for these services, the Company issued to Brock and certain of its affiliates an aggregate of 52,821 shares of Common Stock. The cost of these shares, in the amount of $81,873 based on the $1.55 purchase price of the shares in the Offering, was offset against additional paid-in-capital in the year ended December 31, 2004.

 

(c) Warrants

 

On November 16, 2004, MNI issued warrants to purchase its equity securities to two officers in return for their agreement to guarantee specified professional fees incurred by MNI related to the Merger. These warrants were assumed by the Company in the Merger, and became exercisable to purchase an aggregate of 12,904 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a price of $1.55 per share. The fair value of these warrants in the amount of $17,505 (based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: stock price of $1.55; historical volatility of 90%; risk free rate of approximately 4.5%; dividend yield of 0%; and warrant life of 10 years) was recorded as an expense in the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2004.

 

MDB Capital Group LLC (MDB) acted as placement agent with respect to certain investors in the Offering. As partial compensation for these services, the Company issued to MDB and certain of its affiliates warrants to purchase an aggregate of 572,878 shares of Common Stock at a price of $1.55 per share, exercisable for a period beginning on December 17, 2004 and ending five years thereafter. Pursuant to Emerging Issues Task Force 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock,” the fair value of these warrants was recorded as a current liability until May 20, 2005, the date on which the Company had sufficient authorized shares available to be delivered upon exercise of the warrants. At May 20, 2005, the fair value of these warrants was $1,926,417 (unaudited) based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: stock price of $4.30; historical volatility of 70%; risk free rate of 3.88%; dividend yield of 0%; and warrant life of 4.6 years. In the three months ended June 30, 2005, the Company recorded additional offering costs of $260,139 (unaudited) to revalue this warrant liability, which amount was charged to additional paid-in capital. On May 20, 2005, the entire warrant liability was reclassified to equity.

 

The Company also has outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of 238,709 shares of its Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.55 per share, expiring in 2013 and 2014, and 225,500 outstanding Class B Warrants, each of which is exercisable to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.125 per share on or before 5PM New York City time on December 17, 2005.

 

(d) Equity Incentive Plan

 

The Company has reserved an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of its Common Stock for issuance upon the exercise of awards granted under the Medivation Equity Incentive Plan (the Equity Incentive Plan).

 

The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding under the Equity Incentive Plan at June 30, 2005:

Of the 1,379,348 (unaudited) options outstanding under the Equity Incentive Plan at June 30, 2005, 1,304,348 (unaudited) were exercisable, and the remaining 75,000 (unaudited) were not exercisable, as of that date. However, at June 30, 2005 all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the 1,304,348 exercisable options remained subject to repurchase by the Company at the option exercise price if the optionee’s employment or consulting relationship with the Company ends.

 

The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $161,982 (unaudited) and $0 (unaudited), respectively, in the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, $658,097 (unaudited) and $0 (unaudited), respectively, in the six months

ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, and $767,362 (unaudited) in the period from inception (September 4, 2003) to June 30, 2005 with respect to awards under the Equity Incentive Plan.

 

Stock-based compensation expense of $85,708 (unaudited) in the three months ended June 30, 2005 related to stock options granted to employees and non-employee directors. At June 30, 2005, the total unrecognized compensation cost of these options was $1,566,777, which is recorded as deferred compensation and will be recognized as expense over the remaining vesting periods of the options, which run through 2009. The remaining stock-based compensation expense of $76,274 (unaudited) in the three months ended June 30, 2005 related to stock options granted to consultants. Compensation expense was based on the fair value of these options at their respective measurement dates, based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: stock price of $3.50; historical volatility of 70%; risk free rate of 3.73-3.77%; dividend yield of 0%; and estimated remaining option term of 4.0-4.6 years. In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services,” and EITF Issue No. 00-18, “Accounting Recognition for Certain Transactions Involving Equity Instruments Granted to Other Than Employees,” the aggregate stock-based compensation expense recorded in the Company’s statement of operations was based the portion of the total consulting services provided by each consultant through the respective period end dates. As further portions of these options are earned in the future, the Company will revalue them and recognize additional expense based on their then-current fair market value.

 

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

The registration rights agreement between the Company and investors in the Offering states that the Company is required to pay liquidated damages of $6,000 per day if the registration statement is not declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission by March 31, 2005. The registration statement was not declared effective until May 16, 2005. If the liquidated damages provision is enforceable, the Company’s accrued liability to investors in the Offering through May 16, 2005 would be $276,000. The Company recorded a charge to current operations, and a corresponding liability, of $276,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 2005.

 

In addition, for reasons outside its control, the Company was unable to include in the registration statement shares purchased by certain investors the Offering. If the liquidated damages provision applies to this situation and is enforceable, the Company would incur additional liability of $3,120 per day for an unspecified period of time. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the potential loss, or the range of potential losses, if any, it may incur based on the exclusion of these shares from the registration statement. Accordingly, the Company has not accrued for this potential loss in its financial statements.

 

The Company has not paid any liquidated damages to date, and is in discussions with investors in the Offering to resolve the liquidated damages issue.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the attached unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, and with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, found in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.

 

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We intend that these forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors created by those provisions. Forward-looking statements are generally written in the future tense and/or are preceded by words such as “may,” “should,” “forecast,” “could,” “expect,” “suggest,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” or other similar words. The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report involve a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside of our control. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from projected results include, but are not limited to, the Risk Factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004. Readers are expressly advised to review and consider those Risk Factors, which include risks associated with (1) our ability to successfully conduct clinical and preclinical trials for our product candidates, (2) our ability to raise additional capital on favorable terms, (3) our ability to identify and obtain additional product candidates, and (4) our ability to execute our business plan on time and on budget. Although we believe that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore there can be no assurance that such statements will be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the results or conditions described in such statements or our objectives and plans will be achieved. Furthermore, past performance in operations and share price is not necessarily indicative of future performance. We disclaim any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

 

Our corporate strategy is to identify and acquire development stage medical technologies, including both pharmaceuticals and medical devices, that have promising scientific, clinical and commercial prospects and strong intellectual property positions, and to develop those technologies through a largely outsourced model to achieve valuation-enhancing milestone events. By “valuation-enhancing milestone events” we mean milestone events in the development of pharmaceutical and medical device product candidates which increase the value of those product candidates. Examples of “valuation-enhancing milestone events” include receiving regulatory approval to commence human testing of a product candidate, generating data from human testing which indicate that a product candidate is likely to be safe and effective for its intended use, receiving regulatory approval to market a product candidate and obtaining the issuance of one or more patents covering a product candidate. If we successfully reach such milestone events, we will then consider selling or partnering a given program to a larger pharmaceutical or medical device company or, alternatively, to continue development ourselves to achieve the next milestone event. We believe that our competitive advantages are our ability to identify and acquire medical technologies with favorable risk/reward ratios, our focus on rapid development, and our use of largely outsourced development functions, which allows us to minimize infrastructure and fixed costs and maximize flexibility.

 

We have acquired and are currently developing three technologies, all of which are small molecule drugs. Our lead product candidate, Dimebon, is scheduled to enter a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase II efficacy study in Alzheimer’s disease patients in Russia in the third quarter of 2005. Our second product candidate, the MDVN300 family of compounds, is in the preclinical phase as a potential treatment for hormone refractory prostate cancer. See “Item 5 - Other Information” below for a description of our newly acquired MDVN300 prostate cancer program. Our third product candidate, the NT0904 family of compounds, is in the preclinical phase as a potential treatment for Alzheimer’s disease. We are also evaluating other medical technologies for potential acquisition, and will continue to do so. We will consider medical technologies based on their scientific, clinical and commercial potential, and intellectual property position, and will not limit ourselves to neurology, oncology or any other specific field of medicine.

 

Our business plan for the next twelve months for each of our three product development programs consists of the following items:

 

Dimebon Alzheimer’s Disease Program: (a) completion of patient dosing in our randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase II efficacy study of Dimebon in Alzheimer’s disease patients in Russia by June 30, 2006; and (b) completion by June 30, 2006 of the animal studies required to support an investigational new drug application to the FDA to commence Phase I clinical testing of Dimebon in the U.S.

 

MDVN300 Prostate Cancer Program: (a) synthesis and testing of multiple members of the compound family to identify optimum lead candidate for clinical development; (b) selection of a lead development candidate; (c) manufacture of a lead development candidate for use in IND-enabling preclincal studies; and (d) initiation of IND-enabling preclinical studies to enable IND filing by the end of 2006.

 

NT0904 Alzheimer’s Disease Program: completion of preclinical research required to reach a go/no-go decision on further development of our NT0904 family of compounds.

 

Given our current cash position, we do not have sufficient funds to complete our development plan for the next 12 months for all three of our product development programs without raising additional financing. We cannot be sure that we will be able to raise additional financing on acceptable terms or at all. Should we be unable to raise additional financing, we will allocate our available cash primarily to fund our Dimebon program, and in particular the completion of our Phase II study of Dimebon in Alzheimer’s disease patients. Based on our budget, as of June 30, 2005 the remaining cost to fund our Dimebon program through June 30, 2006 is approximately $6,600,000, which we currently have sufficient cash to fund.

 

However, we caution you that each of the above estimates of development activities, costs and timelines are forward-looking statements, that they are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including without limitation the risk described below under the heading “Risk Factors,” and that actual results may differ materially from our current expectations.

 

On December 17, 2004, we sold 7,741,935 shares of Common Stock in a private placement to accredited investors at a price of $1.55 per share (the Offering). In connection with the Offering, the Company and the investors entered into registration rights agreements, pursuant to which we agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to register the shares sold in the Offering for resale by the investors. The registration rights agreement states that we must pay the investors liquidated damages of $6,000 per day, in the aggregate, if the registration statement was not declared effective by March 31, 2005. The registration statement was not declared effective until May 16, 2005. If the liquidated damages provision is enforceable, the Company’s accrued liability to investors in the Offering through May 16, 2005 would be $276,000. The Company recorded a charge to current operations, and a corresponding liability, of $276,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 2005.

 

In addition, for reasons outside its control, the Company was unable to include in the registration statement shares purchased by certain investors the Offering. If the liquidated damages provision applies to this situation and is enforceable, the Company would incur additional liability of $3,120 per day for an unspecified period of time. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the potential loss, or the range of potential losses, if any, it may incur based on the exclusion of these shares from the registration statement. Accordingly, the Company has not accrued for this potential loss in its financial statements.

 

The Company has not paid any liquidated damages to date, and is in discussions with investors in the Offering to resolve the liquidated damages issue. However, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to reach agreement with these investors and thus cannot predict the ultimate magnitude of any liability we may face. If the Company were required to pay liquidated damages through June 30, 2006 at the rate stated in the registration rights agreement, our aggregate liability would be approximately $1,540,000 through that date.

 

We historically have conducted our business operations on a largely outsourced model, and expect to continue to do so. Thus, we do not expect to purchase or sell any plant or significant equipment, or to significantly increase our number of employees, for the foreseeable future.

Item 3. Controls and Procedures.

 

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

 

As required by Commission Rule 13a-15(b), the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

 

There has been no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

NEWLY ACQUIRED PROSTATE CANCER PROGRAM

 

On August 15, 2005, Medivation Prostate Therapeutics, Inc. (“MPT”), a newly-formed Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Medivation, obtained an exclusive, worldwide license to a family of novel small molecules, referred to as the MDVN300 series of compounds, which in in vitro studies of human prostate cancer cells have demonstrated promising results in treating metastatic prostate cancer that has become resistant to standard hormonal therapies (“hormone-refractory” prostate cancer, or “HRPC”).

 

Prostate Cancer Statistics. According to the American Cancer Society, prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among men in the United States, other than skin cancer. The American Cancer Society estimates that approximately 232,000 new cases of prostate cancer will be diagnosed, and approximately 30,000 men will die of prostate cancer, in the U.S. alone during 2005. Prostate cancer is thus responsible for approximately 10% of U.S. cancer-related deaths in men, making it the second-leading cause of cancer death in men, after lung cancer.

 

Metastatic Prostate Cancer. Metastatic prostate cancer is cancer that has spread beyond the prostate and surrounding tissues into distant organs and tissues. The majority of men who die from prostate cancer die from the consequences of metastatic disease. According to the National Cancer Institute, median survival of patients with prostate

 

14


cancer that has metastasized to distant organs is usually one to three years, and most such patients will die of prostate cancer. Metastatic prostate cancer is generally divided into two states: the hormone-sensitive state and the hormone-refractory state.

 

The Hormone-Sensitive State. Testosterone and other male sex hormones, known collectively as “androgens,” can fuel the growth of prostate cancer cells. Androgens exert their effects on prostate cancer cells by binding the androgen receptor, which is expressed in prostate cancer cells. When they first metastasize to distant sites, most prostate cancers depend on androgens for growth. These prostate cancers are known as “hormone-sensitive” cancers.

 

Accordingly, the leading therapies currently used for the treatment of metastatic prostate cancer are focused on diminishing, or “antagonizing,” the effects of androgens on prostate cancer cells. This effect is achieved through two separate mechanisms. The first mechanism uses drugs known as “anti-androgens,” which directly block the interaction of androgens with the androgen receptor. Casodex® (bicalutamide), sold by AstraZeneca PLC, is the largest selling of these drugs, with global annual sales of more than $1 billion in 2004 according to the public disclosures of AstraZeneca PLC. The second mechanism is to reduce the amount of androgens produced in the body, primarily in the testicles. This can be achieved surgically by removal of both testicles (orchiectomy) or through use of drugs known as luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist drugs, which lower the native production of testosterone in the testicles (sometimes called “chemical castration”). Anti-androgens and LHRH agonists often are given in combination therapy, an approach known as a “combined androgen blockade.” However, because these therapies operate by reducing the ability of androgens to fuel the growth of prostate cancer cells, they generally are effective only on prostate cancers which remain hormone-sensitive – i.e., those which still depend on androgens for growth.

 

The Hormone-Refractory State. Most metastatic prostate cancers initially are hormone-sensitive and thus respond to hormonal therapies. However, according to a study published in the October 7, 2004 issue of The New England Journal of Medicine, virtually all hormone-sensitive metastatic prostate cancers undergo changes that convert them from being dependent on androgens for growth to becoming androgen independent in a median of 18-24 months after initiation of hormonal therapy. Prostate cancers in this state are known as “hormone-resistant” or “hormone-refractory” prostate cancers (HRPCs). The switch from the hormone-sensitive to the hormone-refractory state following initiation of hormonal therapy is generally determined either based on rising levels of prostate specific antigen (PSA), or on documented disease progression as evidenced by imaging tests or clinical symptoms. Metastatic prostate cancers that have become hormone-refractory are extremely aggressive. According to the textbook Cancer: Principles & Pratice of Oncology (7th ed. 2005), HRPCs are responsible for the majority of prostate cancer deaths. According to the article referred to above in The New England Journal of Medicine, patients with metastatic, hormone-refractory prostate cancer have a median survival of only 10 to 12 months.

 

A primary reason that HRPCs are so deadly is that they are difficult to treat. Because they are no longer as dependent on androgens to fuel their growth, HRPCs no longer respond to initially effective hormonal therapies. And to further complicate the situation, drugs that initially block the androgen receptor and inhibit growth of hormone-sensitive prostate cancers may actually have precisely the opposite effect and start to fuel the growth of prostate cancers that have entered the hormone-refractory state. Agents are clearly needed to improve the treatment options for patients with HRPC.

 

Switch from the Hormone-Sensitive to the Hormone-Refractory State. It has been recently discovered by Professor Charles Sawyers and colleagues at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and The University of California, Los Angeles that one of the important mechanisms by which prostate cancers switch from the hormone-sensitive to the hormone-refractory state appears to be through overexpression of the androgen receptor. In the published results of experiments comparing gene expression in hormone sensitive and hormone refractory prostate cancer cells, published in the January 1, 2004 issue of Nature Medicine, Dr. Sawyers and his co-authors reported that an increase in androgen receptor expression was the only gene change consistently associated with hormone-refractory disease. In a series of experiments, Dr. Sawyers and colleagues showed (as expected) that the growth of hormone-sensitive human prostate cancer cell lines was inhibited by current androgen receptor blockers, including Casodex®. However, when the prostate cancer cell lines were genetically engineered to overexpress the androgen receptor (converting them from the hormone-sensitive to the hormone-refractory state), not only did Casodex® not slow the growth of these cells, but it actually became a mild stimulant of cancer cell growth. This finding is consistent with the published human clinical experience with Casodex® in HRPC.

 

The MDVN300 Family of Compounds. Based on their discovery of a mechanism by which prostate cancers shift from the hormone-sensitive to the hormone-refractory state, Dr. Sawyers, Dr. Michael Jung and colleagues synthesized a family of organic small molecules, which we refer to as the MDVN300 family of compounds, which bind to and block the androgen receptor. Based upon the discovery that androgen receptor overexpression converts prostate cancer from the hormone-sensitive to hormone-refractory state, Drs. Sawyers and Jung and their colleagues hypothesized that HRPC might be more effectively treated with agents that bind to the androgen receptor in a different manner than Casodex® or other currently used androgen receptor blockers used for the treatment of hormone-sensitive prostate cancer.

 

15


Drs. Sawyers and Jung and their colleagues compared the androgen receptor blocking activities of the MDVN300 series compounds to Casodex® in cell-based assays using human HRPC cells. In these experiments, several compounds in the MDVN300 series (in particular the present lead compounds MDVN311 and MDVN312) were found to block the androgen receptor more effectively than Casodex®. In human prostate cancer cell lines genetically engineered to switch from the hormone-sensitive state to the hormone refractory state by overexpression of the androgen receptor, MDVN311 and MDVN312 both significantly inhibited the expression of prostate-specific antigen (PSA), which is frequently used in clinical practice as a surrogate marker of prostate cancer growth. By contrast PSA expression in human HRPC cells treated with Casodex® increased, a finding indicative of cancer cell growth.

 

We believe that the MDVN300 series of compounds show promise as potential prostate cancer therapeutics for several reasons. First, we believe that the above data suggest these drugs might be safe and effective treatments for HRPC, an indication for which a large unmet medical need presently exists. Second, because the MDVN300 series of compounds are believed to work by the same mechanism as drugs currently used in the treatment of hormone-sensitive prostate cancers – blockade of the androgen receptor – we believe that there is a potential opportunity to expand the indication of these compounds into hormone-sensitive prostate cancer if we can first show their safety and efficacy in treating HRPC. Third, unlike in most cancers, in prostate cancer there is a widely used surrogate marker of tumor growth – PSA. By monitoring PSA levels in our preclinical and early clinical trials, we believe we will be able to obtain indications of any potential efficacy earlier than would be the case in other cancers lacking such surrogate markers.

 

The Exclusive License and Sponsored Research Agreements. On August 15, 2005, MPT entered into an Exclusive License Agreement with The Regents of the University of California, pursuant to which MPT obtained an exclusive, worldwide license to two pending patent applications covering the MDVN300 family of compounds. The consideration paid for the license includes an up front payment, milestone payments (the first of which is due upon dosing the first patient in the first Phase I study), and royalties on net sales. MPT also has agreed to comply with certain due diligence obligations regarding development of this technology, and to fund work in Dr. Jung’s laboratory at UCLA for a period of one year to synthesize and evaluate other members of the MDVN300 family which may be candidates for clinical development.

 

Development Plan for the MDVN300 Family of Compounds. Medivation’s stated business strategy is to acquire only technologies which we believe can enter clinical development within 12 to 18 months after acquisition. Based on the data we currently have – which includes the in vitro efficacy data described above, data from experiments on the bioavailability of MDVN311 and MDVN312 in animals performed both at UCLA and in independent laboratories engaged by Medivation, and discussions with contract manufacturers regarding the manufacturability of MDVN311 and MDVN312 – we believe that this technology meets this strategic objective.

 

Risk Factors. Our prostate cancer program entails significant risks, each of which could significantly impair, or completely eliminate, the value of this program. Investors are strongly urged to consider these risks, which include the following:

 

Preclinical Data Risks. None of the MDVN300 series compounds have undergone the rigorous animal testing required to support an IND filing with the FDA to allow human testing to begin. These IND-enabling preclinical studies will take significant time and money to complete, and they may identify safety, bioavailability, or other problems which would prevent us from ever commencing human testing.

 

Clinical Data Risks. None of the MDVN300 series compounds have ever been tested in humans. Thus, even if we succeed in obtaining FDA approval to commence human testing, those tests may identify safety,

 

16


biovailability or other problems which would require us to terminate development, or to conduct additional additional tests which would increase the time, cost and risk of development. In addition, the mechanism by which we believe the MDVN300 compounds to operate – inhibiting the androgen receptor – is a novel mechanism for the treatment of prostate cancer that has entered the hormone-refractory state, and we thus face significant risk that we will be unable to generate adequate evidence of efficacy to obtain regulatory approval to market MDVN300 compounds anywhere in the world.

 

Manufacturing Risks. None of the MDVN300 compounds have previously been manufactured at the scales suitable for, or pursuant to good manufacturing practices (GMP) and other regulatory requirements applicable to, the development and commercialization of pharmaceuticals. We thus face significant risk that we will be unable to manufacture MDVN300 compounds at an acceptable scale, in compliance with applicable regulatory requirements and at a cost which renders the development and commercialization of such compounds economically viable.

 

Development and Economic Risks. As noted above, we believe that our development plan for the MDVN300 compounds has the potential to generate a lead candidate to enter clinical development within 12 to 18 months. However, given the inherent uncertainties in the drug development process, we face a significant risk that we will not be able to meet this timeline. Delays could be caused by, among other things, our inability to generate required data in a timely manner or at all, changes in regulatory requirements, requirements to conduct additional studies to address issues raised in the development process, and inability to obtain sufficient quantity of drug supply in a timely manner. Any such delays could increase the cost of development and result in a reduction of the overall value of the program.

 

Intellectual Property Risks. None of the MDVN300 compounds are protected by issued patents. Although we have conducted a due diligence investigation of the MDVN300 patent applications, we cannot guarantee that any patents will ultimately issue on these pending patent applications, that any patents that ultimately issue will create sufficient barriers to protect the MDVN300 compounds from competition, or that licenses to third party patents will not be necessary to develop or commercialize MDVN300 compounds. We also cannot guarantee that any issued patents will withstand challenges that may be brought against them, including actions seeking to declare such patents invalid or to narrow their scope.

 

Regulatory Risks. The process of obtaining regulatory approval to market pharmaceutical products in the US and Europe is extremely complex, lengthy and expensive. We cannot guarantee that we will ever be able to generate sufficient data to obtain regulatory approval in any jurisdiction, nor can we guarantee the estimated time and cost to obtain any such approval even if we ultimately succeed in obtaining it.

 

Competitive Risks. The treatment of hormone-refractory prostate cancer represents a large, unmet medical need. In addition, the mechanism by which the MDVN300 compounds are believed to operate – inhibition of the androgen receptor – is a well-known mechanism for treatment of hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. Because of these factors, there is significant competition to develop agents which can successfully treat hormone-refractory prostate cancer. We anticipate that this competition will include other development candidates which operate by the same purported mechanism of action as the MDVN300 compounds. Our likely competitors will include large, multi-national pharmaceutical companies. Most, if not all, of our competitors have significantly greater financial and human resources, and significantly greater drug development experience, than do we. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to compete successfully against any of these competitors.

 

IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE RISKS, INVESTORS ARE STRONGLY ADVISED TO CONSIDER THOROUGHLY THE MORE DETAILED RISK FACTORS SET FORTH IN OUR PROSPECTUS DATED MAY 16, 2005, MANY OF WHICH APPLY TO OUR NEWLY ACQUIRED PROSTATE CANCER PROGRAM AND ALL OF WHICH SHOULD BE CONSIDERED PRIOR TO MAKING ANY INVESTMENT DECISION WITH RESPECT TO OUR SECURITIES.

 

UPDATE ON OUR DIMEBON PROGRAM

 

Preparation for our upcoming Phase II clinical study of Dimebon in Russia continues to proceed on schedule. We have completed a large meeting in Russia with our clinical investigators and related support personnel from our clinical sites to educate them on the study design, good clinical practices, study specific procedures and other related matters. We currently have enrolled eleven sites to participate in this trial, and have received all requisite study approvals from the

 

17


Ministry of Health and Welfare of the Russian Federation. We currently expect that the first patient in this study will be dosed in the month of September, and that dosing of the last patient will be completed by June 30, 2006.

 

The gating item for the first patient dose likely will be availability of the study drug in Russia. We have completed the manufacture of Dimebon tablets and placebos in the United States in compliance with U.S. current good manufacturing practices (GMP). However, we have not yet received an export license from FDA to export this drug to Russia for use in the study, and we face significant uncertainty regarding whether we will be able to receive this approval in a timely manner. To mitigate this risk, we have engaged a Russian company to manufacture Dimebon tablets and matching placebos for use in the Russian Phase II study. The company we have engaged is licensed by the Russian government to manufacture Dimebon tablets for human use in Russia (where Dimebon has been approved for human use as an anti-histamine since 1983), and has engaged in such manufacture for several years. The Russian company’s manufacturing processes have not been demonstrated to comply with GMP according to U.S. standards. However, we have tested Dimebon tablets made by the Russian company in a U.S. laboratory, and found them to be of high purity and satisfactory for use.

 

We presently expect to use the Russian produced Dimebon tablets in our Russian Phase II study. If we use the Russian produced tablets for this study, we will retain the GMP Dimebon tablets and placebos manufactured in the U.S. for use in our planned U.S. clinical studies of Dimebon. Since we are unable to demonstrate the U.S. GMP compliance of the Russian produced tablets, our use of those tablets in the Russian Phase II study means that this study, if positive, could be relied upon as a proof-of-concept study but not as a pivotal registration study. However, given the demonstrated quality of the Russian-produced tablets, the fact that the Russian manufacturer is licensed by the government of the Russian Federation to manufacture Dimebon tablets for human use in Russia, and the importance of initiating the Phase II study on schedule, we believe that proceeding with the Russian-produced tablets is the appropriate course of action for Medivation to take.

 

Our U.S. preclinical development of Dimebon also is proceeding on schedule. Many of the animal studies required to support an investigational new drug (IND) application in the U.S. are underway. Consistent with our previous disclosures, we expect to file our U.S. IND no later than June 30, 2006, contemporaneously with the anticipated dosing of the last patient in our Russian Phase II study. If the data are positive, we believe that this timing may prove advantageous in discussions with potential acquirers or corporate partners because Medivation would at that point have (a) human proof-of-concept data from a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase II clinical study using current FDA Alzheimer’s disease study endpoints and conducted in accordance with good clinical practices, (b) the necessary preclinical data to seek FDA approval to commence human testing in the U.S., and (c) GMP study drug available for use in those U.S. clinical studies.

THIRD: The purpose of the corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

 

FOURTH: The total number of shares of all classes of stock of which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is 11,000,000, of which 10,000,000 shall be shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, and 1,000,000 shall be shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share. The relative rights, preferences and limitations of the shares of capital stock shall be as follows:

 

(a) Common Stock. The Corporation’s Common Stock shall be of one class.


  (b) Preferred Stock.

 

(i) Authority of Board of Directors to Designate Preferred Stock. Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, each of such series to have such terms as stated or expressed herein and in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of such series adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation as hereinafter provided. Any shares of Preferred Stock which may be redeemed, purchased or acquired by the Corporation may be reissued except as otherwise provided herein or by law. Different series of Preferred Stock shall not be construed to constitute different classes of shares for the purposes of voting by classes unless expressly provided for herein or by law.

 

Authority is hereby expressly granted to the Board of Directors from time to time to issue the Preferred Stock in one or more series, and in connection with the creation of any such series, by resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance of the shares thereof, to determine and fix such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designations, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights, and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, including without limitation thereof, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges, and liquidation preferences, as shall be stated and expressed in such resolutions, all to the full extent now or hereafter permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

B. Conversion Privilege. Each share of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be converted into one thousand shares of the common stock of the Company at the election of the holder(s) for a period of one year commencing on the first business day after the completion of a Business Combination by the corporation, which shall be defined as a statutory merger, share exchange, purchase of capital stock, asset acquisition or other business combination with an operating business, such business not to be limited to any particular location or industry.

 

C. Redemption Privilege. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is redeemable at the option of the holder(s) at any time.

In the event of a liquidation or dissolution of the Corporation, the rights of the holders of the Corporation’s Common Stock are subordinate to the rights of the holder (s) of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock hereunder to receive back their original purchase price per share. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall not otherwise participate in any liquidation or dissolution of the Corporation or be entitled to receive any dividend thereon.

 

FIFTH: The corporation is to have perpetual existence.

 

SIXTH: Whenever a compromise or arrangement is proposed between this corporation and its creditors or any class of them and/or between this corporation and its stockholders or any class of them, any court of equitable jurisdiction within the State of Delaware may, on the application in a summary way of this corporation or of any creditor or stockholder thereof or on the application of any receiver or receivers appointed for this corporation under the provisions of § 291 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code or on the application of trustees in dissolution or of any receiver or receivers appointed for this corporation under the provisions of § 279 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code order a meeting of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the


stockholders of this corporation, as the case may be, to be summoned in such manner as the said court directs. If a majority in number representing three fourths in value of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders or class of stockholders of this corporation, as the case may be, agree to any compromise or arrangement and to any reorganization of this corporation as a consequence of such compromise or arrangement, the said compromise or arrangement and the said reorganization shall, if sanctioned by the court to which the said application has been made, be binding on all the creditors or class of creditors, and/or on all the stockholders, or class of stockholders, of this corporation, as the case may be, and also on this corporation.

 

SEVENTH: For the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs of the corporation, and in further definition, limitation, and regulation of the powers of the corporation and of its directors and of its stockholders or any class thereof, as the case may be, it is further provided:

 

1. The management of the business and the conduct of the affairs of the corporation shall be vested in its Board of Directors. The number of directors which shall constitute the whole Board of Directors shall be fixed by, or in the manner provided in, the Bylaws. The phrase “whole Board” and the phrase “total number of directors” shall be deemed to have the same meaning, to wit, the total number of directors which the corporation would have if there were no vacancies. No election of directors need be by written ballot.

 

2. After the original or other Bylaws of the corporation have been adopted, amended, or repealed, as the case may be, in accordance with the provisions of § 109 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and, after the corporation has received any payment for any of its stock, the power to adopt, amend, or repeal the Bylaws of the corporation may be exercised by the Board of Directors of the corporation; provided, however, that any provision for the classification of directors of the corporation for staggered terms pursuant to the provisions of subsection (d) of § 141 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware shall be set forth in an initial Bylaw or in a Bylaw adopted by the stockholders entitled to vote of the corporation unless provisions for such classification shall be set forth in this certificate of incorporation.


3. Whenever the corporation shall be authorized to issue only one class of stock, each outstanding share shall entitle the holders thereof to notice of, and the right to vote at, any meeting of stockholders. Whenever the corporation shall be authorized to issue more than one class of stock, no outstanding share of any of class of stock which is denied voting power under the provisions of the certificate of incorporation shall entitle the holder thereof to the right to vote at any meeting of stockholders except as the provisions of paragraph (2) of subsection (b) of § 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware shall otherwise require; provided, that no share of any such class which is otherwise denied voting power shall entitle the holder thereof to vote upon the increase or decrease in the number of authorized shares of said class.

 

EIGHTH: The Corporation will not consummate a Business Combination unless it is approved by a vote of two-thirds of the shares of the Common Stock of the Corporation voted by non-affiliated public stockholders (in person or in proxy).

 

NINTH: The personal liability of the directors of the corporation is hereby eliminated to the fullest extent permitted by the provisions of paragraph (7) of subsection (b) of § 102 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same may be amended and supplemented.

 

TENTH: The corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by the provisions of §145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same may be amended and supplemented, indemnify any and all persons whom it shall have power to indemnify under said section from and against any and all of the expenses, liabilities, or other matters referred to in or covered by said section, and the indemnification provided for herein shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any Bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such a person.


ELEVENTH: From time to time any of the provisions of this certificate of incorporation may be amended, altered, or repealed, and other provisions authorized by the law of the State of Delaware at the time in force may be added or inserted in the manner and at the time prescribed by said laws, and all rights at any time conferred upon the stockholders of the corporation by this certificate of incorporation are granted subject to the provisions of this Article ELEVENTH.

Pursuant to Section 151 of the General Corporation Law

of the State of Delaware

 

Orion Acquisition Corp. II, a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called the “Company”), hereby certifies that, pursuant to the authority expressly vested in the Board of Directors of the Company by the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), and in accordance with the provisions of Sections 103 and 151 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the Board of Directors has duly adopted the following resolutions.

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation (which authorizes 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.01 par value per share (“Preferred Stock”)), the Board of Directors fixed the powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions, of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, and

 

WHEREAS, no shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock have been issued,

 

RESOLVED, that, pursuant to the authority vested in the Board of Directors of the Company and the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, the Certificate of Designations filed with the office of the Secretary of State of Delaware on June 24, 2004 creating a class of authorized Preferred Stock of the Company designated as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is hereby amended and restated in its entirety and that the desingation and number of shares thereof and the voting powers, preferences and other rights of the shares of such class, and the qualifications, limtations and restrications thereof as amended and restated, are as follows:

 

RESOLVED, that the Company is authorized to issue Series B Convertible Preferred Stock on the following terms and with the provisions herein set forth

 

(1). Designation and Number of Shares. Of the 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock authorized pursuant to the Fourth Article of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, 450,000 shares are hereby designated as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”).

 

(2). Liquidation Preference. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, either voluntary or involuntary, subject to the rights of other Series of Preferred Stock that are in existence or may, from time to time, come into existence, the assets of the Company available for distribution to shareholders shall be distributed among the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and among common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Common Stock”) on the basis of each share of Series B Preferred Stock receiving an amount of cash or other distributable property that is the Conversion Rate (as hereinafter defined) times the amount payable or distributable for each share of Common Stock.

 

-1-


(3). Redemption. The Series B Preferred Stock does not have any redemption rights.

 

(4). Dividends. The Series B Preferred Stock will not be entitled to dividends unless the Company pays cash dividends or dividends in other property to holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock, in which event, each outstanding share of the Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive dividends of cash or property equivalent to that paid in respect of one share of Common Stock times the Conversion Rate (as hereinafter defined). Any dividend payable to the Series B Preferred Stock will have the same record and payment date and terms as the dividend is payable on the Common Stock.

 

(5). Mandatory Conversion.

 

(a). Conversion. In the event that the Company increases the number of shares of authorized Common Stock to be equal to or in excess of 25,000,000 shares of Common Stock, then upon the filing and acceptance of any change in the Certificate of Incorporation reflecting the increase in capital, whether by amendment or restatement, all the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock will immediately and automatically convert into shares of the Company’s Common Stock without any notice required on the part of the Company or the holder (“Mandatory Conversion”). In such event, holders of Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive Common Stock at the conversion rate of twenty (20) shares of fully paid and non-assessable Common Stock for one (1) share of Series B Preferred Stock (“Conversion Rate”).

 

(b). Obligation. The Company agrees that it shall in good faith take and any all such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized shares of Common Stock to not less than 25,000,000 and to expeditiously effect the conversion of (i) all outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock to shares of Common Stock and (ii) permit the exercise of all options, warrants or rights to purchase shares of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to the terms of their defining instruments, including, without limiting use its good faith best efforts to obtain the requisite shareholder approval of any necessary amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to achieve the foregoing.

 

(c). Conversion Procedure. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to issue or cause its transfer agent to issue the Common Stock issuable upon a Mandatory Conversion within three (3) business days after the Mandatory Conversion. The Company shall bear the cost associated with the issuance of the Common Stock issuable upon the Mandatory Conversion. The Common Stock and other securities issuable upon the Mandatory Conversion shall be issued with a restrictive legend indicating that it was issued in a transaction which is exempt from registration under the Securities Act, and that it cannot be transferred unless it is so registered, or an exemption from registration is available, in the opinion of counsel to the Company. The Common Stock issuable upon the Mandatory Conversion shall be issued in the same name as the person who is the holder of the Series B Preferred Stock unless, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, such transfer can be made in compliance with applicable securities laws. The person in whose name the certificates of

 

-2-


Common Stock are so recorded and other securities issuable upon the Mandatory Conversion shall be treated as a common stockholder of the Company at the close of business on the date of the Mandatory Conversion. The certificates representing the Series B Preferred Stock shall be cancelled, on the date of the Mandatory Conversion.

 

(6). Adjustments to Conversion Rate and Reorganization. The Conversion Rate for the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock shall be converted on a Mandatory Conversion shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as hereinafter set forth:

 

(a) Stock Dividends - Recapitalization, Reclassification, Split-Ups. If, prior to the date of Mandatory Conversion, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock or by a split-up, recapitalization or reclassification of shares of Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on the Mandatory Conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding shares of Common Stock.

 

(b) Aggregation of Shares. If prior to the date of Mandatory Conversion, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination or reclassification of shares of Common Stock or other similar event, then, upon the effective date thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on the Mandatory conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares.

 

(c) Change Resulting from Reorganization or Change in Par Value, etc. In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock which solely affects the par value of the shares of Common Stock, or in the case of any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company is dissolved, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall have the right thereafter (until the Mandatory Conversion or its equivalent) to receive upon the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or other transfer, by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible immediately prior to such event; and if any reclassification also results in a change in shares of Common Stock, then such adjustment also shall be made.

 

(d) Successive Changes. The provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers or consolidations, sales or other transfers.

 

(7). Voting Rights. The holders of record of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to the following voting rights:

 

(a) Those voting rights required by applicable law but excluding the right to vote as a separate class (except as provided in Section (12)); and

 

-3-


(b) The right to vote together with the holders of the Common Stock upon all matters submitted to such holders for a vote, the vote of each share of Series B Preferred Stock to be equal to the then Conversion Rate.

 

Notwithstanding Section (7)(b), so long as the Series B Preferred Stock is outstanding, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock voting as a separate class shall have the right to elect one member of the Board of Directors of the Company, which director shall be subject to removal only upon the vote of the holders of a majority of the Series B Preferred Stock. The above voting rights are also subject to the Protective Rights contained in Section (12) hereof.

 

(8). No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this section and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the holders of Series B Preferred Stock against impairment.

 

(9). No Fractional Shares and Certificate as to Adjustments. No fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of any share or shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, and the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. The number of shares issuable upon conversion shall be determined on the basis of the total number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock the holder is at the time converting into Common Stock and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such aggregate conversion.

 

(10). Notices of Record Date. In the event of any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend (other than a cash dividend) or other distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or any other right, the Company shall mail to each holder of Series B Preferred Stock, at least ten (10) days prior to the date specified therein, a notice specifying the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right.

 

(11). Notices.

(b) Time And Conditions Of Exercise. The Committee shall determine the time or times at which an Option may be exercised in whole or in part, provided that the term of any Option granted under the Plan shall not exceed ten years, and provided further, that in the case of a Non-Qualified Stock Option, such Option shall be exercisable for one year after the date of the Participant’s death. The Committee shall also determine the performance or other conditions, if any, that must be satisfied before all or part of an Option may be exercised.

 

(c) Payment. The Committee shall determine the methods by which the exercise price of an Option may be paid, the form of payment, including, without limitation, cash, promissory note bearing interest at such rate as is a market rate of interest and which also precludes the imputation of interest under the Code, shares of Stock held for longer than six months having a Fair Market Value on the date of delivery equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Option or exercised portion thereof, or other property acceptable to the Committee (including through the delivery of a notice that the Participant has placed a market sell order with a broker with respect to shares of Stock then issuable upon exercise of the Option, and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale to the Company in satisfaction of the Option exercise price, provided that payment of such proceeds is then made to the Company upon settlement of such sale), and the methods by which shares of Stock shall be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Participant who is a member of the Board or an “executive officer” of the Company within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act shall be permitted to pay the exercise price of an Option in any method which would violate Section 13(k).

(2) One year after the date of the Participant’s termination of employment or service on account of Disability or death, unless in the case of death a shorter or longer period is designated in the Award Agreement. Upon the Participant’s Disability or death, any Incentive Stock Options exercisable at the Participant’s Disability or death may be exercised by the Participant’s legal representative or representatives, by the person or persons entitled to do so pursuant to the Participant’s last will and testament, or, if the Participant fails to make testamentary disposition of such Incentive Stock Option or dies intestate, by the person or persons entitled to receive the Incentive Stock Option pursuant to the applicable laws of descent and distribution.

(c) Individual Dollar Limitation. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time the Option is granted) of all shares of Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are first exercisable by a Participant in any calendar year may not exceed $100,000 or such other limitation as imposed by Section 422(d) of the Code, or any successor provision. To the extent that Incentive Stock Options are first exercisable by a Participant in excess of such limitation, the excess shall be considered Non-Qualified Stock Options.

5.3 Early Exercisability. The Committee may provide in the terms of a Participant’s Award Agreement that the Participant may, at any time before the Participant’s status as an Employee, member of the Board or consultant to the Company terminates, exercise the Option(s) granted to such Participant in whole or in part prior to the full vesting of the Option(s); provided, however, shares of Stock acquired upon exercise of an Option which has not fully vested may be subject to any forfeiture, transfer or other restrictions as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion.

 

ARTICLE 6

RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS

 

6.1 Grant of Restricted Stock.

7.3 Independent Stock Appreciation Rights.

 

(a) An Independent Stock Appreciation Right (“ISAR”) shall be unrelated to any Option and shall have a term set by the Committee. An ISAR shall be exercisable in such installments as the Committee may determine. An ISAR shall cover such number of shares of Stock as the Committee may determine. The exercise price per share of Stock subject to each ISAR shall be set by the Committee; provided, however, that, the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion may provide that the ISAR may be exercised subsequent to a termination of employment or service, as applicable, or following a Change of Control of the Company, or because of the Participant’s retirement, death or disability, or otherwise.

 

(b) An ISAR shall entitle the Participant (or other person entitled to exercise the ISAR pursuant to the Plan) to exercise all or a specified portion of the ISAR (to the extent then exercisable pursuant to its terms) and to receive from the Company an amount determined by multiplying the difference obtained by subtracting the exercise price per share of the ISAR from the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of exercise of the ISAR by the number of shares of Stock with respect to which the ISAR shall have been exercised, subject to any limitations the Committee may impose.

 

7.4 Payment and Limitations on Exercise.

 

(a) Payment of the amounts determined under Section 7.2(c) and 7.3(b) above shall be in cash, in Stock (based on its Fair Market Value as of the date the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised) or a combination of both, as determined by the Committee.

 

(b) To the extent any payment under Section 7.2(c) or 7.3(b) is effected in Stock it shall be made subject to satisfaction of all provisions of Article 5 above pertaining to Options.

An Award of Performance Shares, Dividend Equivalents, Restricted Stock Units and Stock Payments shall only be exercisable or payable while the Participant is an Employee, consultant to the Company or a member of the Board, as applicable; provided, however, that the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion may provide that an Award of Performance Shares, Dividend Equivalents, Stock Payments or Restricted Stock Units may be exercised or paid subsequent to a termination of employment or service, as applicable, upon or following a Change of Control of the Company, or because of the Participant’s retirement, death or disability, or otherwise; provided, however, that any such provision with respect to Performance Shares shall be subject to the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code that apply to Qualified Performance-Based Compensation.

 

9


8.8 Form of Payment. Payments with respect to any Awards granted under this Article 8 shall be made in cash, in Stock or a combination of both, as determined by the Committee.

 

8.9 Award Agreement. All Awards under this Article 8 shall be subject to such additional terms and conditions as determined by the Committee and shall be evidenced by a written Award Agreement.

 

ARTICLE 9

PERFORMANCE-BASED AWARDS

 

9.1 Purpose. The purpose of this Article 9 is to provide the Committee the ability to qualify Awards other than Options and SARs and that are granted pursuant to Articles 6 and 8 as Qualified Performance-Based Compensation. If the Committee, in its discretion, decides to grant a Performance-Based Award to a Covered Employee, the provisions of this Article 9 shall control over any contrary provision contained in Articles 6 or 8; provided, however, that the Committee may in its discretion grant Awards to Covered Employees that are based on Performance Criteria or Performance Goals but that do not satisfy the requirements of this Article 9.

 

9.2 Applicability. This Article 9 shall apply only to those Covered Employees selected by the Committee to receive Performance-Based Awards. The designation of a Covered Employee as a Participant for a Performance Period shall not in any manner entitle the Participant to receive an Award for the period. Moreover, designation of a Covered Employee as a Participant for a particular Performance Period shall not require designation of such Covered Employee as a Participant in any subsequent Performance Period and designation of one Covered Employee as a Participant shall not require designation of any other Covered Employees as a Participant in such period or in any other period.

 

9.3 Procedures With Respect to Performance-Based Awards. To the extent necessary to comply with the Qualified Performance-Based Compensation requirements of Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, with respect to any Award granted under Articles 6 and 8 which may be granted to one or more Covered Employees, no later than ninety (90) days following the commencement of any fiscal year in question or any other designated fiscal period or period of service (or such other time as may be required or permitted by Section 162(m) of the Code), the Committee shall, in writing, (i) designate one or more Covered Employees, (ii) select the Performance Criteria applicable to the Performance Period, (iii) establish the Performance Goals, and amounts of such Awards, as applicable, which may be earned for such Performance Period, and (iv) specify the relationship between Performance Criteria and the Performance Goals and the amounts of such Awards, as applicable, to be earned by each Covered Employee for such Performance Period. Following the completion of each Performance Period, the Committee shall certify in writing whether the applicable Performance Goals have been achieved for such Performance Period. In determining the amount earned by a Covered Employee, the Committee shall have the right to reduce or eliminate (but not to increase) the amount payable at a given level of performance to take into account additional factors that the Committee may deem relevant to the assessment of individual or corporate performance for the Performance Period.

 

9.4 Payment of Performance-Based Awards. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, a Participant must be employed by the Company or a Subsidiary on the day a Performance-Based Award for such Performance Period is paid to the Participant. Furthermore, a Participant shall be eligible to receive payment pursuant to a Performance-Based Award for a Performance Period only if the Performance Goals for such period are achieved. In determining the amount earned under a Performance-Based Award, the Committee may reduce or eliminate the amount of the Performance-Based Award earned for the Performance Period, if in its sole and absolute discretion, such reduction or elimination is appropriate.

 

9.5 Additional Limitations. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, any Award which is granted to a Covered Employee and is intended to constitute Qualified Performance-Based Compensation shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in Section 162(m) of the Code (including any amendment to Section 162(m) of the Code) or any regulations or rulings issued thereunder that are requirements for qualification as qualified performance-based compensation as described in Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, and the Plan shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such requirements.

ARTICLE 10

PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO AWARDS

 

10.1 Stand-Alone and Tandem Awards. Awards granted pursuant to the Plan may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with, any other Award granted pursuant to the Plan. Awards granted in addition to or in tandem with other Awards may be granted either at the same time as or at a different time from the grant of such other Awards.

 

10.2 Award Agreement. Awards under the Plan shall be evidenced by Award Agreements that set forth the terms, conditions and limitations for each Award which may include the term of an Award, the provisions applicable in the event the Participant’s employment or service terminates, and the Company’s authority to unilaterally or bilaterally amend, modify, suspend, cancel or rescind an Award.

 

10.3 Limits on Transfer. No right or interest of a Participant in any Award may be pledged, encumbered, or hypothecated to or in favor of any party other than the Company or a Subsidiary, or shall be subject to any lien, obligation, or liability of such Participant to any other party other than the Company or a Subsidiary. Except as otherwise provided by the Committee, no Award shall be assigned, transferred, or otherwise disposed of by a Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The Committee by express provision in the Award or an amendment thereto may permit an Award (other than an Incentive Stock Option) to be transferred to, exercised by and paid to certain persons or entities related to the Participant, including but not limited to members of the Participant’s family, charitable institutions, or trusts or other entities whose beneficiaries or beneficial owners are members of the Participant’s family and/or charitable institutions, or to such other persons or entities as may be expressly approved by the Committee, pursuant to such conditions and procedures as the Committee may establish. Any permitted transfer may be subject to the condition that the Committee receive evidence satisfactory to it that the transfer is being made for estate and/or tax planning purposes (or to a “blind trust” in connection with the Participant’s termination of employment or service with the Company or a Subsidiary to assume a position with a governmental, charitable, educational or similar non-profit institution) and on a basis consistent with the Company’s lawful issue of securities.

 

10.4 Beneficiaries. Notwithstanding Section 10.3, a Participant may, in the manner determined by the Committee, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights of the Participant and to receive any distribution with respect to any Award upon the Participant’s death. A beneficiary, legal guardian, legal representative, or other person claiming any rights pursuant to the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Agreement applicable to the Participant, except to the extent the Plan and Award Agreement otherwise provide, and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Committee. If the Participant is married and resides in a community property state, a designation of a person other than the Participant’s spouse as his beneficiary with respect to more than 50% of the Participant’s interest in the Award shall not be effective without the prior written consent of the Participant’s spouse. If no beneficiary has been designated or survives the Participant, payment shall be made to the person entitled thereto pursuant to the Participant’s will or the laws of descent and distribution. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by a Participant at any time provided the change or revocation is filed with the Committee.

 

10.5 Stock Certificates. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates evidencing shares of Stock pursuant to the exercise of any Award, unless and until the Board has determined, with advice of counsel, that the issuance and delivery of such certificates is in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations of governmental authorities and, if applicable, the requirements of any exchange on which the shares of Stock are listed or traded. All Stock certificates delivered pursuant to the Plan are subject to any stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee deems necessary or advisable to comply with federal, state, or foreign jurisdiction, securities or other laws, rules and regulations and the rules of any national securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Stock is listed, quoted, or traded. The Committee may place legends on any Stock certificate to reference restrictions applicable to the Stock. In

 

11


addition to the terms and conditions provided herein, the Board may require that a Participant make such reasonable covenants, agreements, and representations as the Board, in its discretion, deems advisable in order to comply with any such laws, regulations, or requirements. The Committee shall have the right to require any Participant to comply with any timing or other restrictions with respect to the settlement or exercise of any Award, including a window-period limitation, as may be imposed in the discretion of the Committee.

 

ARTICLE 11

CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE

 

11.1 Adjustments. In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation, spin-off, recapitalization or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to stockholders, or any other change affecting the shares of Stock or the share price of the Stock, the Committee shall make such proportionate adjustments, if any, as the Committee in its discretion may deem appropriate to reflect such change with respect to (i) the aggregate number and type of shares that may be issued under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the limitations in Sections 3.1 and 3.3); (ii) the terms and conditions of any outstanding Awards (including, without limitation, any applicable performance targets or criteria with respect thereto); and (iii) the grant or exercise price per share for any outstanding Awards under the Plan. Any adjustment affecting an Award intended as Qualified Performance-Based Compensation shall be made consistent with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code.

 

11.2 Effect of a Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control, then all of a Participant’s unvested Awards shall become fully exercisable and/or payable as applicable, and all forfeiture restrictions on such Awards shall lapse, immediately prior to such Change of Control. Upon, or in anticipation of, a Change of Control, the Committee may cause any and all Awards outstanding hereunder to terminate at a specific time in the future and shall give each Participant the right to exercise such Awards during a period of time as the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall determine.

 

11.3 Outstanding Awards—Certain Mergers. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, in the event that the Company shall be the surviving corporation in any merger or consolidation (except a merger or consolidation as a result of which the holders of shares of Stock receive securities of another corporation), each Award outstanding on the date of such merger or consolidation shall pertain to and apply to the securities that a holder of the number of shares of Stock subject to such Award would have received in such merger or consolidation.

 

11.4 Outstanding Awards—Other Changes. In the event of any other change in the capitalization of the Company or corporate change other than those specifically referred to in this Article 11, the Committee may, in its absolute discretion, make such adjustments in the number and class of shares subject to Awards outstanding on the date on which such change occurs and in the per share grant or exercise price of each Award as the Committee may consider appropriate to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights.

 

11.5 No Other Rights. Except as expressly provided in the Plan, no Participant shall have any rights by reason of any subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock of any class, the payment of any dividend, any increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class or any dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or any other corporation. Except as expressly provided in the Plan or pursuant to action of the Committee under the Plan, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of shares of Stock subject to an Award or the grant or exercise price of any Award.

 

12


ARTICLE 12

ADMINISTRATION

 

12.1 Committee. Unless and until the Board delegates administration to a Committee as set forth below, the Plan shall be administered by the Board. The Board may delegate administration of the Plan to a Committee or Committees of one or more members of the Board, and the term “Committee” shall apply to any person or persons to whom such authority has been delegated. If administration is delegated to a Committee, the Committee shall have, in connection with the administration of the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed by the Board, including the power to delegate to a subcommittee any of the administrative powers the Committee is authorized to exercise (and references in this Plan to the Board shall thereafter be to the Committee or subcommittee), subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as may be adopted from time to time by the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, from and after the Public Trading Date, a Committee of the Board shall administer the Plan and the Committee shall consist solely of two or more members of the Board each of whom is both an “outside director,” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, and a Non-Employee Director. Within the scope of such authority, the Board or the Committee may (i) delegate to a committee of one or more members of the Board who are not “outside directors,” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code the authority to grant awards under the Plan to eligible persons who are either (1) not then “covered employees,” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code and are not expected to be “covered employees” at the time of recognition of income resulting from such award or (2) not persons with respect to whom the Company wishes to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code and/or (ii) delegate to a committee of one or more members of the Board who are not Non- Employee Directors, the authority to grant awards under the Plan to eligible persons who are not then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. The Board may abolish the Committee at any time and/or revest in the Board the administration of the Plan. Appointment of Committee members shall be effective upon acceptance of appointment. Committee members may resign at any time by delivering written notice to the Board. Vacancies in the Committee may only be filled by the Board.

 

12.2 Action by the Committee. A majority of the Committee shall constitute a quorum. The acts of a majority of the members present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, and acts approved in writing by a majority of the Committee in lieu of a meeting, shall be deemed the acts of the Committee. Each member of the Committee is entitled to, in good faith, rely or act upon any report or other information furnished to that member by any officer or other employee of the Company or any Subsidiary, the Company’s independent certified public accountants, or any executive compensation consultant or other professional retained by the Company to assist in the administration of the Plan.

 

12.3 Authority of Committee. Subject to any specific designation in the Plan, the Committee has the exclusive power, authority and discretion to:

 

(a) Designate Participants to receive Awards;

 

(b) Determine the type or types of Awards to be granted to each Participant;

 

(c) Determine the number of Awards to be granted and the number of shares of Stock to which an Award will relate;

 

(d) Determine the terms and conditions of any Award granted pursuant to the Plan, including, but not limited to, the exercise price, grant price, or purchase price, any reload provision, any restrictions or limitations on the Award, any schedule for lapse of forfeiture restrictions or restrictions on the exercisability of an Award, and accelerations or waivers thereof, any provisions related to non-competition and recapture of gain on an Award, based in each case on such considerations as the Committee in its sole discretion determines; provided, however, that the Committee shall not have the authority to accelerate the vesting or waive the forfeiture of any Performance-Based Awards;

 

13


(e) Determine whether, to what extent, and pursuant to what circumstances an Award may be settled in, or the exercise price of an Award may be paid in, cash, Stock, other Awards, or other property, or an Award may be canceled, forfeited, or surrendered;

 

(f) Prescribe the form of each Award Agreement, which need not be identical for each Participant;

 

(g) Decide all other matters that must be determined in connection with an Award;

 

(h) Establish, adopt, or revise any rules and regulations as it may deem necessary or advisable to administer the Plan;

 

(i) Interpret the terms of, and any matter arising pursuant to, the Plan or any Award Agreement; and

 

(j) Make all other decisions and determinations that may be required pursuant to the Plan or as the Committee deems necessary or advisable to administer the Plan.

 

12.4 Decisions Binding. The Committee’s interpretation of the Plan, any Awards granted pursuant to the Plan, any Award Agreement and all decisions and determinations by the Committee with respect to the Plan are final, binding, and conclusive on all parties.

 

ARTICLE 13

EFFECTIVE AND EXPIRATION DATE

 

13.1 Effective Date. The Plan will be effective as of the date of the Board’s initial adoption of the Plan (the “Effective Date”). The Plan will be submitted for the approval of the Company’s stockholders within twelve months after the Effective Date. Awards may be granted or awarded prior to such stockholder approval, provided that such Awards shall not be exercisable, shall not vest and the restrictions thereon shall not lapse prior to the time when the Plan is approved by the stockholders, and provided further that if such approval has not been obtained at the end of said twelve-month period, all Awards previously granted or awarded under the Plan shall thereupon be canceled and become null and void.

 

13.2 Expiration Date. The Plan will expire on, and no Award may be granted pursuant to the Plan after, the earlier of the tenth anniversary of (i) the Effective Date or (ii) the date this Plan is approved by the Company’s stockholders. Any Awards that are outstanding on the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date shall remain in force according to the terms of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement. Each Award Agreement shall provide that it will expire on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant of the Award to which it relates.

 

ARTICLE 14

AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION, AND TERMINATION

 

14.1 Amendment, Modification, and Termination. With the approval of the Board, at any time and from time to time, the Committee may terminate, amend or modify the Plan; provided, however, that to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with any applicable law, regulation, or stock exchange rule, the Company shall obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree as required.

 

14.2 Awards Previously Granted. No termination, amendment, or modification of the Plan shall adversely affect in any material way any Award previously granted pursuant to the Plan without the prior written consent of the Participant.

 

14


ARTICLE 15

GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

15.1 No Rights to Awards. No Participant, employee, or other person shall have any claim to be granted any Award pursuant to the Plan, and neither the Company nor the Committee is obligated to treat Participants, employees, and other persons uniformly.

 

15.2 No Stockholders Rights. No Award gives the Participant any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company unless and until shares of Stock are in fact issued to such person in connection with such Award.

 

15.3 Withholding. The Company or any Subsidiary shall have the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, local and foreign taxes (including the Participant’s FICA obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect to any taxable event concerning a Participant arising as a result of this Plan. The Committee may in its discretion and in satisfaction of the foregoing requirement allow a Participant to elect to have the Company withhold shares of Stock otherwise issuable under an Award (or allow the return of shares of Stock) having a Fair Market Value equal to the sums required to be withheld. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the number of shares of Stock which may be withheld with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of any Award (or which may be repurchased from the Participant of such Award within six months after such shares of Stock were acquired by the Participant from the Company) in order to satisfy the Participant’s federal, state, local and foreign income and payroll tax liabilities with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of the Award shall be limited to the number of shares which have a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding or repurchase equal to the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal, state, local and foreign income tax and payroll tax purposes that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income.

 

15.4 No Right to Employment or Services. Nothing in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate any Participant’s employment or services at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or any Subsidiary.

 

15.5 Unfunded Status of Awards. The Plan is intended to be an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall give the Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company or any Subsidiary.

 

15.6 Indemnification. To the extent allowable pursuant to applicable law, each member of the Committee or of the Board shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such member in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action or failure to act pursuant to the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by him or her in satisfaction of judgment in such action, suit, or proceeding against him or her, provided he or she gives the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled pursuant to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.

 

15.7 Relationship to Other Benefits. No payment pursuant to the Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits pursuant to any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare or other benefit plan of the Company or any Subsidiary except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder.

 

15


15.8 Expenses. The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company and its Subsidiaries.

 

15.9 Titles and Headings. The titles and headings of the Sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only and, in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control.

 

15.10 Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Stock shall be issued and the Committee shall determine, in its discretion, whether cash shall be given in lieu of fractional shares or whether such fractional shares shall be eliminated by rounding up or down as appropriate.

 

15.11 Limitations Applicable to Section 16 Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Plan, and any Award granted or awarded to any Participant who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan and Awards granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule.

 

15.12 Government And Other Regulations. The obligation of the Company to make payment of awards in Stock or otherwise shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by government agencies as may be required. The Company shall be under no obligation to register pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, any of the shares of Stock paid pursuant to the Plan. If the shares paid pursuant to the Plan may in certain circumstances be exempt from registration pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Company may restrict the transfer of such shares in such manner as it deems advisable to ensure the availability of any such exemption.

 

15.13 Governing Law. The Plan and all Award Agreements shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware.

 

15.14 Compliance with California Securities Laws. Prior to the Public Trading Date, this Plan is intended to comply with Section 25102(o) of the California Corporations Code and the regulations issued thereunder. If any of the provisions contained in this Plan are inconsistent with such requirements, such provisions shall be deemed null and void. The invalidity of any provision of this Plan shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Plan, which shall remain in full force and effect.

 

15.15 Appendices. The Committee may approve such supplements to, or amendments, or appendices to, the Plan as it may consider necessary or appropriate for purposes of compliance with applicable laws or otherwise and such supplements, amendments or appendices shall be considered a part of the Plan; provided, however, that no such supplements, amendments or appendices shall increase the share limitations contained in Sections 3.1 and 3.3 of the Plan.

Definitions as set out in Section 2 of the Plan are applicable to this Appendix.

 

The purpose of this Appendix is to set forth those provisions of the Plan necessary to comply with Section 25102(o) of the California Corporations Code and the regulations issued thereunder. If any of the provisions contained in this Appendix are inconsistent with such requirements, such provisions shall be deemed null and void.

1.1 Term of Awards. The term of each Award shall be no more than ten years from the date of grant thereof.

 

2.1 Award Exercise or Purchase Price. Except as provided in Article 11, the per share exercise or purchase price for the Stock to be issued upon exercise of an Award shall be such price as is determined by the Administrator, but shall be subject to the following:

 

In the case of an Award:

 

(a) granted to a Participant who, at the time of grant of such Award, owns stock representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any parent (as defined in Section 175 of the California Corporations Code) or Subsidiary, the per share exercise or purchase price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per share on the date of the grant (100% in the case of an Award other than an Option); and

 

(b) granted to any other Participant, the per share exercise or purchase price shall be no less than 85% of the Fair Market Value per share on the date of grant.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Awards may be granted with a per share exercise or purchase price other than as required above pursuant to a merger or other corporate transaction.

 

3.1 Exercisability. Except with regard to Awards granted to officers, directors, managers or consultants, in no event shall an Award granted hereunder become vested and exercisable at a rate of less than 20% per year over five years from the date the Award is granted, subject to reasonable conditions, such as continuing to be a service provider.

 

4.1 Exercisability Following Termination of Relationship as a Service Provider.

 

(a) Termination Other Than Death or Disability. If a Participant’s employment or service terminates for any reason other than by reason of the Participant’s disability or death, such Participant may exercise his or her Award within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement to the extent that the Award is vested on the date of termination; provided, however, that prior to the Public Trading Date, such period of time shall not be less than thirty days (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of the Award as set forth in the Award Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for three months following the Participant’s termination.

 

(b) Disability of Participant. If a Participant’s employment or service terminates as a result of the Participant’s disability, the Participant may exercise his or her Award within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement to the extent the Award is vested on the date of termination; provided,


however, that prior to the Public Trading Date, such period of time shall not be less than six months (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Award as set forth in the Award Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Award shall remain exercisable for twelve months following the Holder’s termination.

 

(c) Death. If a Participant’s employment or service terminates as a result of the Participant’s death, the Award may be exercised within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement; provided, however, that prior to the Public Trading Date, such period of time shall not be less than six months (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Award as set forth in the Notice of Grant), by the Participant’s estate or by a person who acquires the right to exercise the Award by bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent that the Award is vested on the date of death. In the absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Award shall remain exercisable for twelve months following the Participant’s termination.

 

5.1 Repurchase Provisions. In the event the Committee provides that the Company may repurchase Stock acquired upon exercise of an Award upon the occurrence of certain specified events, including, without limitation, termination of a Participant’s employment or service, divorce, bankruptcy or insolvency, then any such repurchase right shall be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement or in another agreement referred to in such agreement and, to the extent required by Section 260.140.41 and Section 260.140.42 of Title 10 of the California Code of Regulations, any such repurchase right set forth in an Award granted prior to the Public Trading Date to a person who is not an officer, director, manager or consultant shall be upon the following terms: (i) if the repurchase option gives the Company the right to repurchase the shares upon the Participant’s termination of employment or service at not less than the Fair Market Value of the shares to be purchased on the date of termination of employment or service, then (A) the right to repurchase shall be exercised for cash or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness for the shares within ninety days of termination of employment or service (or in the case of shares issued upon exercise of Awards after such date of termination, within ninety days after the date of the exercise) or such longer period as may be agreed to by the Administrator and the Participant and (B) the right terminates on the Public Trading Date; and (ii) if the repurchase option gives the Company the right to repurchase the Stock upon the Participant’s termination of employment or service at the original purchase price for such Stock, then (A) the right to repurchase at the original purchase price shall lapse at the rate of at least 20% of the shares per year over five (5) years from the date the Award is granted (without respect to the date the Award was exercised or became exercisable) and (B) the right to repurchase shall be exercised for cash or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness for the shares within ninety days of termination of employment or service (or, in the case of shares issued upon exercise of Awards, after such date of termination, within ninety days after the date of the exercise) or such longer period as may be agreed to by the Company and the Participant.

 

6.1 Information Rights. Prior to the Public Trading Date and to the extent required by Section 260.140.46 of Title 10 of the California Code of Regulations, the Company shall provide to each Participant and to each individual who acquires Stock pursuant to the Plan, not less frequently than annually during the period such Participant has one or more Awards outstanding, and, in the case of an individual who acquires Stock pursuant to the Plan, during the period such individual owns such Stock, copies of annual financial statements. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Company shall not be required to provide such statements to key employees whose duties in connection with the Company assure their access to equivalent information.

 

7.1 Transferability. Prior to the Public Trading Date, no Award shall be assigned, transferred, or otherwise disposed of by a Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or, with respect to Awards other than Incentive Stock Options, as permitted by Rule 701 of the Securities Act.

 

8.1 Limitation on Number of Shares. Prior to the Public Trading Date, at no time shall the total number of shares of Stock issuable upon exercise of all outstanding Options under the Plan and any shares of Stock provided for under any bonus or similar plan or agreement of the Company exceed 30% of the then-outstanding shares of Stock of the Company, as calculated pursuant to Section 260.140.45 of Title 10 of the California Code of Regulations, unless a percentage higher than 30% is approved by at least two-thirds of the outstanding securities of the Company entitled to vote.
