1998 STOCK PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the Plan shall
have the same defined meanings in this Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement.
WHEREAS the Purchaser named in the Notice of Grant, (the "Purchaser")
is a Service Provider, and the Purchaser's continued participation is considered
by the Company to be important for the Company's continued growth; and
WHEREAS in order to give the Purchaser an opportunity to acquire an
equity interest in the Company as an incentive for the Purchaser to participate
in the affairs of the Company, the Administrator has granted to the Purchaser a
Stock Purchase Right subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the
Notice of Grant, which are incorporated herein by reference, and pursuant to
this Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement").
NOW THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
1. Sale of Stock. The Company hereby agrees to sell to the
Purchaser and the Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase shares of the Company's
Common Stock (the "Shares"), at the per Share purchase price and as otherwise
described in the Notice of Grant.
2. Payment of Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Shares
shall be paid in the form of cash or check in an amount equal to the original
purchase price (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) by the Purchaser to the
Company.
3. Repurchase Option.
(a) In the event the Purchaser ceases to be a Service
Provider for any or no reason (including Death or Disability) before all of the
Shares are released from the Company's Repurchase Option (see Section 4), the
Company shall, upon the date of such termination (as reasonably fixed and
determined by the Company) have an irrevocable, exclusive option (the
"Repurchase Option") for a period of ninety (90) days from such date to
repurchase up to that number of shares which constitute the Unreleased Shares
(as defined in Section 4) at a price (the "Repurchase Price") per share equal to
the original purchase price per share. The Company may exercise its Repurchase
Option as to any or all of the Unreleased Shares at any time following the
Purchaser's termination; provided, however, that without requirement of further
action on the part of either party hereto, the Company's Repurchase Option shall
be deemed to have been automatically exercised as to all Unreleased Shares at
5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the date that is 60 days following the date of the
Purchaser's termination, unless the Company declines in writing to exercise its
Repurchase Option with respect to all or part of the Unreleased Shares prior to
such time; and provided, further, that
notwithstanding the above, the Company's Repurchase Option shall not be deemed
to have been automatically exercised, and shall instead be deemed to become
temporarily unexercisable as of such time and date, in any case where such
automatic exercise would result in a violation of applicable law by reason of
the Company having insufficient assets to meet its obligations or otherwise,
including, without limitation, a violation of any provision of Section 160 of
the Delaware General Corporation Law. The Repurchase Option shall once again be
deemed exercisable (or, as provided above, exercised) as soon as a violation of
applicable law would not result from its exercise.
(b) If the Company decides not to exercise its
Repurchase Option, it shall notify the Purchaser within 60 days of the
Purchaser's termination. If the Company decides to exercise its Repurchase
Option, within 90 days from the Purchaser's termination as a Service Provider,
the Company shall deliver payment to the Purchaser, with a copy to the Escrow
Holder (as defined in Section 6 hereof), by delivering to the Purchaser or the
Purchaser's executor a check in the amount of the aggregate Repurchase Price;
provided, however, that the Company shall use good faith efforts to satisfy its
payment obligation to the Purchaser within 15 days after the Company's notice of
exercise of the Repurchase Option (or deemed exercise), and that if such check
is not delivered within such 15-day period, the amount of the Company's
unsatisfied payment obligation shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to
the WSJ Prime Rate (as defined below), but only to the extent that payment of
such interest is enforceable under applicable law, until the Company has
satisfied its payment obligation under this Section 3. As a result of any
repurchase of the Unreleased Shares pursuant to this Section 3, (i) the Company
shall become the legal and beneficial owner of the Unreleased Shares being
repurchased and shall have all rights and interest therein or related thereto,
(ii) the Company shall have the right to transfer to its own name the number of
Unreleased Shares being repurchased by the Company, without further action by
the Purchaser, and (iii) the Purchaser shall no longer be considered the owner
of the Unreleased Shares repurchased for record or any other purposes. For the
purposes of this Agreement, the "WSJ Prime Rate" is the highest "Prime Rate" as
published daily in The Wall Street Journal under the heading "Money Rates." The
WSJ Prime Rate in effect at any time will change each time and as of the date
that a new WSJ Prime Rate is published. In the event the WSJ Prime Rate is
discontinued, the Company shall substitute an index determined by the Company to
be comparable, in its reasonable discretion.
(c) The Company in its sole discretion may designate
and assign one or more employees, officers, directors or stockholders of the
Company or other persons or organizations to exercise all or a part of the
Company's Repurchase Option to purchase all or a part of the Unreleased Shares.
(d) In the event that the Company's Repurchase Option
is exercised, whether automatically in the manner provided for above or pursuant
to written notice, then upon and following such exercise, the only remaining
right of the Purchaser under this Agreement shall be the right to receive the
Repurchase Price, and the Purchaser shall have no right whatsoever to receive
the Unreleased Shares. In the event that the Company's Repurchase Option is
terminated, whether by written notice from the Company to the Purchaser within
60 days following the termination of the Purchaser's service to the Company; or
by reason of the automatic termination to avoid a violation of applicable law
described above, then upon and following such termination, the only remaining
right of the Purchaser under this Agreement shall be the right to receive the
Unreleased Shares, and the Purchaser have no right whatsoever to receive the
Repurchase Price.
-2-
4. Release of Shares From Repurchase Option.
(a) Subject to Purchaser continuing to be a Service
Provider at such time, twenty percent (20%) of the Shares shall be released from
the Company's Repurchase Option on the one-year anniversary of the Date of
Grant, and five percent (5%) of the Shares shall be released from the Company's
Repurchase Option at the end of each successive three-month period after the
one-year anniversary of the Date of Grant, so that the Shares shall be released
entirely at the end of five years after the Date of Grant. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that the Purchaser ceases to be a member of the Board of
Directors within 12 months after a Change of Control (as defined below), any
Shares that have not been released from the Company's Repurchase Option shall be
released.
For purposes hereof, "Change of Control" shall mean
the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the consummation of a merger
or consolidation of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company with any other
entity, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting
securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to
represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted or exchanged
into other voting securities of another entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of
the total voting power represented by the voting securities of the Company or
such other entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation;
(ii) the approval by the stockholders of the Company of a plan of complete
liquidation of the Company or the consummation of the sale or disposition by the
Company of all or substantially all of the Company's assets; or (iii) any
"person" (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) becoming the "beneficial owner" (as defined in
Rule 13d-3 under said Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company
representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the total voting power represented
by the Company's then outstanding voting securities.
(b) Any of the Shares that have not yet been released
from the Repurchase Option are referred to herein as "Unreleased Shares."
(c) The Shares that have been released from the
Repurchase Option shall be delivered to the Purchaser at the Purchaser's request
(see Section 6).
5. Restriction on Transfer. Except for the escrow described in
Section 6 or the transfer of the Shares to the Company or its assignees
contemplated by this Agreement, none of the Shares or any beneficial interest
therein shall be transferred, encumbered or otherwise disposed of in any way,
other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, until such Shares
are released from the Company's Repurchase Option in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement.
6. Escrow of Shares.
(a) To ensure the availability for delivery of the
Purchaser's Unreleased Shares upon repurchase by the Company pursuant to the
Repurchase Option, the Purchaser and the Company shall, upon execution of this
Agreement, deliver and deposit with an escrow holder designated by the Company
(the "Escrow Holder") the share certificates, if any, representing the
Unreleased Shares, together with the stock assignment duly endorsed in blank,
attached hereto as Exhibit A-2. The Unreleased Shares and stock assignment shall
be held by the Escrow Holder,
-3-
pursuant to the Joint Escrow Instructions of the Company and Purchaser attached
hereto as Exhibit A-3, until such time as the Company's Repurchase Option
expires.
(b) The Escrow Holder shall not be liable for any act
it may do or omit to do with respect to holding the Unreleased Shares in escrow
while acting in good faith and in the exercise of its judgment.
(c) If the Company or any assignee exercises the
Repurchase Option hereunder, the Escrow Holder, upon receipt of written notice
of such exercise from the proposed transferee, shall take all steps necessary to
accomplish such transfer.
(d) When the Repurchase Option has been exercised or
expires unexercised or a portion of the Shares has been released from the
Repurchase Option, upon request by the Company or the Purchaser, as the case may
be, the Escrow Holder shall promptly request a new certificate to be issued for
the released Shares and shall deliver the certificate to the Company or the
Purchaser, as the case may be.
(e) Subject to the terms hereof, the Purchaser shall
have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares while they are
held in escrow, including without limitation, the right to vote the Shares and
to receive any cash dividends declared thereon. If, from time to time during the
term of the Repurchase Option, there is (i) any stock dividend, stock split or
other change in the Shares, or (ii) any merger or sale of all or substantially
all of the assets or other acquisition of the Company, any and all new,
substituted or additional securities to which the Purchaser is entitled by
reason of the Purchaser's ownership of the Shares shall be immediately subject
to this escrow, deposited with the Escrow Holder and included thereafter as
"Shares" for purposes of this Agreement and the Repurchase Option.
7. Legends. The share certificate evidencing the Shares, if any,
issued hereunder shall be endorsed with the following legend (in addition to any
legend required under applicable federal and state securities laws):
THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO
CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS UPON TRANSFER AND RIGHTS OF REPURCHASE AS
SET FORTH IN AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE
STOCKHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF
THE COMPANY.
8. Adjustment for Stock Split. All references to the number of
Shares and the purchase price of the Shares in this Agreement shall be
appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, reverse stock split, stock
dividend or other change in the Shares that may be made by the Company after the
date of this Agreement.
9. Tax Consequences. The Purchaser has reviewed with the
Purchaser's own tax advisors the federal, state, local and foreign tax
consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. The Purchaser is relying solely on such advisors and not on any
statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. The Purchaser
understands that
-4-
the Purchaser (and not the Company) shall be responsible for the Purchaser's own
tax liability that may arise as a result of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement. The Purchaser understands that Section 83 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), taxes as ordinary income the
difference between the purchase price for the Shares and the Fair Market Value
of the Shares as of the date any restrictions on the Shares lapse. In this
context, "restriction" includes the right of the Company to buy back the Shares
pursuant to the Repurchase Option. The Purchaser understands that the Purchaser
may elect to be taxed at the time the Shares are purchased rather than when and
as the Repurchase Option expires by filing an election under Section 83(b) of
the Code with the IRS within 30 days from the date of purchase. The form for
making this election is attached as Exhibit A-4 hereto.
THE PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS THE PURCHASER'S SOLE
RESPONSIBILITY AND NOT THE COMPANY'S TO FILE TIMELY THE ELECTION UNDER SECTION
83(b), EVEN IF THE PURCHASER REQUESTS THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES TO MAKE
THIS FILING ON THE PURCHASER'S BEHALF.
10. General Provisions.
(a) This Agreement shall be governed by the internal
substantive laws, but not the choice of law rules, of California. This
Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Notice of
Grant, represents the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the
purchase of the Shares by the Purchaser. Subject to Section 15(c) of the Plan,
in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the
terms and conditions of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan
shall prevail. Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the Plan
shall have the same defined meanings in this Agreement.
(b) Any notice, demand or request required or permitted
to be given by either the Company or the Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when delivered
personally or deposited in the U.S. mail, First Class with postage prepaid, and
addressed to the parties at the addresses of the parties set forth at the end of
this Agreement or such other address as a party may request by notifying the
other in writing in accordance with this Section.
Any notice to the Escrow Holder shall be sent to
the Company's address with a copy to the other party hereto.
(c) The rights of the Company under this Agreement
shall be transferable to any one or more persons or entities, and all covenants
and agreements hereunder shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by
the Company's successors and assigns. The rights and obligations of the
Purchaser under this Agreement may only be assigned with the prior written
consent of the Company.
(d) Either party's failure to enforce any provision of
this Agreement shall not in any way be construed as a waiver of any such
provision, nor prevent that party from thereafter enforcing any other provision
of this Agreement. The rights granted both parties hereunder are
-5-
cumulative and shall not constitute a waiver of either party's right to assert
any other legal remedy available to it.
(e) The Purchaser agrees upon request to execute any
further documents or instruments necessary or desirable to carry out the
purposes or intent of this Agreement.
(f) PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING
OF SHARES PURSUANT TO SECTION 4 HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING SERVICE AS A
SERVICE PROVIDER AT THE WILL OF THE COMPANY (AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING
HIRED OR PURCHASING SHARES HEREUNDER). PURCHASER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES
THAT THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING
SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF
CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY
PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND SHALL NOT INTERFERE WITH PURCHASER'S RIGHT OR ANY RIGHT
OF THE COMPANY TO TERMINATE PURCHASER'S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT
ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE.
By Purchaser's signature below, Purchaser represents that he or she is
familiar with the terms and provisions of the Plan, and hereby accepts this
Agreement subject to all of the terms and provisions thereof. Purchaser has
reviewed the Plan and this Agreement in their entirety, has had an opportunity
to obtain the advice of counsel prior to executing this Agreement and fully
understands all provisions of this Agreement. Purchaser agrees to accept as
binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the
Administrator upon any questions arising under the Plan or this Agreement.
Purchaser further agrees to notify the Company upon any change in the residence
indicated in the Notice of Grant.
