This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Stockholder and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Stockholder, enforceable against Stockholder in accordance with its terms.

 

  (d) No consent, approval or authorization of, or designation, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Entity or, to the Stockholder’s knowledge, other Person on the part of Stockholder is required in connection with the valid execution and delivery of this Agreement. No consent of Stockholder’s spouse is necessary under any “community property” or other laws in order for Stockholder to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement.


3. Agreement to Vote Shares.

Stockholder agrees during the term of this Agreement to vote the Original Shares (or execute a written consent or consents if stockholders of the Company are requested to vote their shares through the execution of an action by written consent in lieu of any such annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company) in favor of the Merger and the Merger Agreement, at every meeting (or in connection with any action by written consent) of the stockholders of the Company at which such matters are considered and at every adjournment or postponement thereof.

 

4. No Voting Trusts or Other Arrangement.

Stockholder agrees that during the term of this Agreement, Stockholder will not, directly or indirectly, transfer, sell, offer, exchange, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of (other than pursuant to the Warrant to Purchase Common Stock issued to the Stockholder by the Company) or encumber (“Transfer”) any of the Original Shares or enter into any contract, option or other agreement with respect to, or consent to, a Transfer of, any of the Shares or Stockholder’s voting or economic interest therein. Any attempted Transfer of Original Shares or any interest therein in violation of this Section 5 shall be null and void.

6. Additional Shares. Stockholder agrees that all shares of Company Stock that Stockholder purchases or acquires after the execution of this Agreement shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement and shall constitute Original Shares for all purposes of this Agreement.


7. Waiver of Appraisal and Dissenters’ Rights. Stockholder hereby waives, and agrees not to assert or perfect, any rights of appraisal or rights to dissent from the Merger that Stockholder may have by virtue of ownership of the Shares.

 

8. Termination. This Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) the Effective Time, (ii) the date on which the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, (iii) a Company Acquisition Proposal (for purpose of this definition, replacing all references in such definition to 20% with 50%) is submitted to the Company or its shareholders by any person or entity (other than Merger SPV) at a price per share in excess of the Merger Consideration and such offer is not matched, within five (5) business days, by Merger SPV in a written offer to the Company or its shareholders at a price per share equal to at least the offered price per share of such other person or entity; and (iv) December 31, 2013. In the event of termination of this Agreement, this Agreement shall become null and void and have no effect. The Company shall notify the Stockholder in writing promptly upon the occurrence of any of the foregoing events.

 

9. No Agreement as Director or Officer. Stockholder makes no agreement or understanding in this Agreement in Stockholder’s capacity as a director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (if Stockholder holds such office), and nothing in this Agreement: (a) will limit or affect any actions or omissions taken by Stockholder in stockholder’s capacity as such a director or officer, including in exercising rights under the Merger Agreement, and no such actions or omissions shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement or (b) will be construed to prohibit, limit or restrict Stockholder from exercising Stockholder’s fiduciary duties as an officer or director to the Company or its stockholders.

 

10. Actions Regarding Company Preferred Stock.

 

  (a) Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that: (i) each share of Company Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will remain issued and outstanding as shares of Company Preferred Stock of the Surviving Corporation following the Effective Time, having such rights, preferences, and privileges as set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation, (ii) the shares of Company Preferred Stock of the Surviving Corporation shall have the same economic rights with respect to dividends and distributions upon liquidation as the shares of Company Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and (iii) based on the representations of the Merger SPV in Section 11 herein, the percentage interest of the Stockholder in the voting rights of the Company (including its voting rights) thereafter shall be at least equal to its percentage interest in the voting rights of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time.


  (b) Notwithstanding anything contained in the Certificate of Designation to the contrary, and notwithstanding the fact that the Merger constitutes a “Liquidation Event” under the Certificate of Designation, Stockholder hereby waives any rights it may have under the Certificate of Designation to receive the Liquidation Preference (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) and any accrued and unpaid dividends or distributions solely as a result of the Merger. It is hereby clarified, for the avoidance of any doubt, that the Stockholder shall be entitled to receive the Liquidation Preference and any accrued and unpaid dividends or distributions from the date of the issuance of the Company Preferred Stock to the Stockholder upon any other Liquidation Event or as otherwise set forth in the Certificate of Designation. No waiver by the Stockholder hereunder shall be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any other right of the Stockholder under the Certificate of Designation. Stockholder hereby agreeing that no consideration will be paid in the Merger in respect of the Company Preferred Stock, but each share of Company Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior the Effective Time will remain issued and outstanding as shares of Company Preferred Stock of the Surviving Corporation following the Effective Time.

 

  (c) Subject to the consummation of the Merger, the Company and Stockholder hereby agree that, effective as of the Effective Date, Article 7 (Registration Rights) contained in the Purchase Agreement shall have no further force and effect until such time, if any, following the Effective Time that the Company shall consummate an initial public offering of any of its securities.

 

11. Representations of Merger SPV. Merger SPV represents and warrants to Stockholder and the Company that the number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Merger SPV immediately preceding the Effective Time shall not exceed the number of issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Stock immediately preceding the Effective Time.

 

12. Specific Performance. Each party hereto acknowledges that it will be impossible to measure in money the damage to the other party if a party hereto fails to comply with any of the obligations imposed by this Agreement, that every such obligation is material and that, in the event of any such failure, the other party will not have an adequate remedy at law or damages. Accordingly, each party hereto agrees that injunctive relief or other equitable remedy, in addition to remedies at law or damages, is the appropriate remedy for any such failure and will not oppose the seeking of such relief on the basis that the other party has an adequate remedy at law.


13. Entire Agreement. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be amended or supplemented, and no provisions hereof may be modified or waived, except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. No waiver of any provisions hereof by a party shall be deemed a waiver of any other provisions hereof by such party, nor shall any such waiver be deemed a continuing waiver of any provision hereof by such party.
