     4.1 Transfers of Class B Common Stock. Class B Common Stockholders may not Transfer any shares of Class B Common Stock except Transfers (a) to a Permitted Transferee, (b) pursuant to Section 6 of Article IV or (c) in compliance with the provisions of Section 7 and Section 8 of Article IV.
     4.2 Indirect Transfers. For purposes of this Article IV, any Transfer by a beneficial owner of any Class B Common Stockholder (other than a Transfer to an Affiliate of such beneficial owner, who shall remain an Affiliate of such beneficial owner) of its equity interest in such Class B Common Stockholder shall be deemed to be a Transfer by such Class B Common Stockholder of its shares of Class B Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a Class B Common Stockholder, or a beneficial owner of a Class B Common Stockholder, is an investment fund formed as a limited partnership, the transfer of any limited partnership interest is such Class B Common Stockholder, or such beneficial owner of a Class B Common Stockholder, as the case may be, shall not be deemed to be a Transfer by such Class B Common Stockholder of its shares of Class Be Stock.
5.   Conversion.
     5.1 Conversion upon Transfer. In the event any holder of shares of Class B Common Stock transfers such shares after the day after the Effective Date, such transferred shares shall automatically and without further action convert into an equal number of shares of Class A

Common Stock; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 5.1 shall not apply to any Transfers to Permitted Transferees pursuant to Section 4.1(a) of Article IV.
     5.2 Mandatory Conversion. Upon the Qualified Initial Public Offering or when less than 20% of the shares of Class B Common Stock issued at the Effective Time remain outstanding, all of the then-outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock will automatically and without further action convert into Class A Common Stock (which, for the avoidance of doubt, will then be the only class of Common Stock).
6.   Take Along.
     6.1 If at any time, any of the Stockholders holding more than fifty (50%) of the Common Stock Equivalents, individually or acting as a group (such Stockholders, as applicable, being referred to herein as the “Take Along Group”) notifies the Corporation that it is engaging in a Company Sale and such Company Sale is approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors if required by applicable law, then if so requested by the Take Along Group the Corporation shall provide twenty (20) days’ written notice to each Stockholder that owns Class B Common Stock (each, a “Class B Common Stockholder”), which notice shall set forth the terms and conditions of such proposed Company Sale, including the name of the prospective transferee, the number of shares of Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents proposed to be sold by the Take Along Group in the Company Sale, the consideration to be received by the Take Along Group and the proposed time and place of closing (such notice being referred to as the “Sale Request”). Each Class B Common Stockholder that is not a member of the Take Along Group (each, a “Class B Seller”), in the event the Company Sale is consummated, shall be obligated to consummate, consent to and raise no objection to the proposed Company Sale and take all other actions reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate the proposed Company Sale on the terms proposed by the Take Along Group as set forth in the Sale Request. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) if the Company Sale is structured as a merger, consolidation or similar business transaction, each Class B Seller shall be deemed to have voted in favor of such proposed Company Sale and to have waived all appraisal and dissenters rights and shall be obligated to grant a proxy in favor of the Corporation to vote the Class B Seller’s shares of Class B Common Stock in accordance with this Section 6.1 of Article IV and (ii) if the Company Sale is structured as a sale or redemption of Common Stock, each Class B Seller shall be deemed to have agreed to sell his pro rata portion of Common Stock Equivalents (including his pro rata portion of outstanding options which would become Common Stock Equivalents by reason of the Company Sale) being sold in the Company Sale on the same terms and conditions as the Take Along Group. A Class B Common Stockholder’s pro rata portion, for purposes of this Section 6.1 of Article IV, is the product of (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock which such Class B Common Stockholder then owns and the denominator of which is the total number of such Common Stock Equivalents then actually outstanding and (ii) the total number of Common Stock Equivalents being sold in the Company Sale. Each proxy granted above in this Section 6.1 of Article IV shall be irrevocable, coupled with an interest and shall survive until the expiration of the provisions of this Section 6.1(a) of Article IV. If required, each Class B Seller shall be obligated to (i) deliver certificates for all of its shares of Common Stock being Transferred pursuant to this Section 6.1 of Article IV at the closing of the proposed Transfer, free and clear of all claims, liens and encumbrances. Notwithstanding any failure by any Class B Seller to act in accordance with this

-5-


 

Section 6.1 of Article IV, the books and records of the Corporation shall reflect the consummation of any Approved Company Sale. The terms and conditions of any sale pursuant to this Section 6.1 of Article IV shall be the same as set forth in the Sale Request.
     6.2 Each Class B Common Stockholder, by virtue of holding shares of Class B Common Stock, shall be obligated to take or cause to be taken all commercially reasonable actions in order to consummate expeditiously any Company Sale and any related transactions, including, without limitation, executing, acknowledging and delivering consents, assignments, waivers and other documents or instruments as may be reasonably requested and otherwise cooperating with the Take Along Group and any prospective buyer; provided, however, that Class B Common Stockholders shall be obligated to become liable in respect of any representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities or otherwise to the Third Party solely to the extent provided in the immediately following sentence. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Class B Common Stockholder shall be obligated, by virtue of holding shares of Class B Common Stock, to execute and deliver such agreements as may be reasonably specified by the Take Along Group to which such Take Along Group will also be party, including, without limitation, agreements to (i) (1) make individual representations, warranties, covenants and other agreements as to the unencumbered title to its shares of Class B Common Stock and the power, authority and legal right to Transfer such shares and the absence of any Adverse Claim with respect to such shares and (2) be liable without limitation as to such representations, warranties, covenants (including without limitation, covenants not to compete, as appropriate) and other agreements and (ii) be liable (whether by purchase price adjustment, indemnity payments or otherwise) in respect of representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in respect of the Corporation and its subsidiaries; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of liability described in this clause (ii) in connection with any Company Sale shall not exceed the lesser of (I) such Class B Common Stockholder’s pro rata portion of any such liability, to be determined in accordance with such Class B Common Stockholder’s portion of the total value for his, her or its shares of Common Stock included in such Company Sale or (II) the proceeds to such Class B Common Stockholder in connection with such Company Sale.
     6.3 In any event, the Corporation shall have the right to purchase, by delivery of a written notice to any Class B Common Stockholder, the pro rata portion of such Class B Common Stockholder’s shares of Class B Common Stock contemplated by Section 6.1 of Article IV, and such Class B Common Stockholder shall be obligated to sell such pro rata portion at a price per share equal to the price per share of Class A Common Stock received by holders of Class A Common Stock in the Company Sale.
     6.4 The provisions of this Section 6 of Article IV shall only apply to the Class B Common Stockholders in the event that either the Company Sale is an Approved Company Sale or Class B Common Stockholders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock otherwise consent to such Company Sale.
7. Right of First Refusal. In the event that any Stockholder owning fifteen percent (15%) or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (a “15% Stockholder”) wishes to Transfer any shares of Common Stock other than (a) pursuant to a Permitted Transfer or (b) pursuant to a transaction covered by Section 6 of Article IV or any other similar take-along agreement affecting the 15% Stockholders:

-6-


 

     7.1 Such 15% Stockholder (the “Transferring Stockholder”) shall first give written notice thirty (30) days’ prior to the date a Participation Notice must be delivered pursuant to Section 8.1 of Article IV (or similar provision), stating the desire of such Transferring Stockholder to make such Transfer (a “First Refusal Notice”). Such First Refusal Notice shall be delivered to the Corporation, who shall provide such First Refusal Notice to each other 15% Stockholder (such parties receiving the First Refusal Notice, the “Offerees”), and shall specify (a) the name and address of the party to which the Transferring Stockholder proposes to sell or otherwise transfer, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold or transferred (the “First Refusal Shares”), (c) the consideration per share of Common Stock which such Transferring Stockholder expects to be paid for the First Refusal Shares (the “First Refusal Price”) and (d) all other material terms and conditions of such proposed transaction (including any relevant documentation), which transaction (and the related terms and conditions) must be of a bona fide nature.
     7.2 Upon receipt of the First Refusal Notice, each Offeree shall have the irrevocable and exclusive option for itself or on behalf of its designees to purchase all, but not less than all, of the First Refusal Shares at the First Refusal Price; provided, however, that in the event that more than one Offeree desires to purchase the First Refusal Shares, the number of First Refusal Shares available to be purchased by each such Offeree may be reduced to the percentage of First Refusal Shares equal to such Offeree’s percentage ownership of the total number of shares of Common Stock held by all such participating Offerees. The Offerees’ option under this Section 7.2 of Article IV shall be exercisable by written notice to the Transferring Stockholder given on or before the thirtieth (30th) day after the date the First Refusal Notice was actually received by the Offerees. Delivery of such a written notice of exercise shall constitute the obligation on the part of the Offerees to purchase the First Refusal Shares at the First Refusal Price, subject only to the financing of such purchase. Upon exercise of such option within such thirty (30) day period, the Offeree will provide the Transferring Stockholder with documentation, reasonably satisfactory to the Transferring Stockholder, that the Offeree reasonably believes it will be able to consummate such purchase within forty-five (45) days of the exercise date.
     7.3 If the First Refusal Notice has been duly given and the Offerees do not exercise their option to purchase all of the First Refusal Shares (or a lesser number consented to by the Transferring Stockholder), or, if after exercise by the Offeree of its option to purchase such shares, the Offeree fails to consummate such transaction within the time periods set forth in Section 7.2 of Article IV, then the Transferring Stockholder shall be free, for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days from the expiration of the first offer acceptance period or the expiration of the time periods set forth in clause (b) above, as the case may be, to sell the First Refusal Shares at a cash price not less than 95% of the First Refusal Price to the party specified in and on the other material terms set forth in the First Refusal Notice (subject to the terms of Section 8 of Article IV, if applicable).
     7.4 If the proposed purchase price of a Transferee for the First Refusal Shares is reduced to a price less than 95% of the First Refusal Price or there is a material change to the terms in the First Refusal Notice, the Transferring Stockholder shall not Transfer the First Refusal Shares unless the Transferring Stockholder first reoffers the First Refusal Shares at such lesser cash price or materially different terms to the Offerees by giving fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice (the “Reoffer Notice”) thereof, stating the Transferring Stockholder’s intention to

-7-


 

make such Transfer at such lower cash price or materially different terms (the “Reoffer Terms”). The Offerees shall then have the irrevocable and exclusive option to purchase the First Refusal Shares on the Reoffer Terms, exercisable by written notice to the Transferring Stockholder given on or before the fifteenth day after the date that the Reoffer Notice was actually received by the Offerees. If the Offerees do not then purchase all the First Refusal Shares (or a lesser number consented to by the Transferring Stockholder), such First Refusal Shares may be sold by the Transferring Stockholder to a transferee within 60 days following the date of the expiration of the fifteen-day reoffer acceptance period, on the Reoffer Terms (subject to the terms of Section 8 of Article IV, if applicable).
     7.5 The closing of purchases pursuant to first refusal rights granted under this Section 7 of Article IV shall take place in the principal executive office of the Corporation at 10:00 a.m. local time on the tenth business day following the delivery to the Transferring Stockholder of all notices exercising such first offer rights, or at such other time and/or place as the parties to such purchase may agree.
     7.6 For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 7 of Article IV shall not apply to any Permitted Transfer and shall in no way limit the rights of the Offerees to participate in any Transfer pursuant to the terms and conditions of the come along provisions of Section 8 of Article IV.
     7.7 For purposes of this Section 7 of Article IV, all shares of Common Stock held by Affiliates of any Stockholder shall be attributed to such Stockholder for purposes of determining which Stockholders are 15% Stockholders. The books and records of the Corporation shall be deemed to be conclusive of the stockholders of record for purposes of determining which Stockholders are 15% Stockholders.
     7.8 The rights and obligations granted under this Section 7 of Article IV shall terminate upon a Qualified Initial Public Offering.
8. Come Along. No Class B Common Stockholder may Transfer shares of Class B Common Stock to a Third Party who is not (a) a Permitted Transferee or (b) an Offeree purchasing First Refusal Shares pursuant to Section 7 of Article IV without complying with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 8 of Article IV.
     8.1 Any Class B Common Stockholder or group of Class B Common Stockholders, when desiring to Transfer shares of Common Stock other than pursuant to a Permitted Transfer (the “Transferor”), shall be obligated to give not less than fifteen (15) days prior written notice of such intended Transfer to the Corporation, who shall promptly provide such notice to each other Stockholder of record. Such notice (the “Participation Notice”) shall set forth the terms and conditions of such proposed Transfer, including the name of the prospective transferee, the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be transferred (the “Participation Securities”) by the Transferor, the percentage of the total number of shares of Common Stock held by the Transferor that the Participation Securities constitutes of such class (the “Come Along Percentage”), the purchase price per share of Common Stock proposed to be paid therefor, the payment terms and type of transfer to be effectuated and the proposed time and place of closing. Within fifteen (15) days following the delivery of the Participation Notice by the Transferor to

-8-


 

the Corporation, each other Stockholder desiring to participate in such proposed Transfer (each, a “Participating Offeree”) shall, by notice in writing to the Corporation, have the opportunity and right to sell to the purchasers in such proposed Transfer (upon the same terms and conditions as the Transferor) up to that number of shares of Common Stock, as the case may be, subject to the last sentence of Section 8.2 of Article IV, as shall equal the product of (i) the Come Along Percentage for the Common Stock, as the case may be, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock which will be owned by such Participating Offeree as of the proposed date of closing set forth in the Participation Notice without giving effect to the transfer contemplated hereby. The Transferor shall be obligated to attempt to obtain inclusion in the proposed Transfer of the entire number of shares of Common Stock which the Transferor and the Participating Offerees desire to have included in the proposed Transfer. In the event the Transferor shall be unable to obtain the inclusion of such entire number of shares of Common Stock in the proposed Transfer, the number of shares of Common Stock to be sold in the Proposed Transfer by each Participating Offeree and the Transferor shall be determined in accordance with Section 8.2 of Article IV. The terms and conditions of any sale pursuant to this Section 8.1 of Article IV shall be the same as set forth in the Participation Notice, except as is provided in Section 8.2 of Article IV and except that the actual date of the closing of any proposed Transfer may change.
     8.2 The acceptance of each Participating Offeree shall be irrevocable except as hereinafter provided, and each such Participating Offeree shall be bound and obligated to sell, on the same terms and conditions specified in the Participation Notice as the Transferor (subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement), such number of shares of Common Stock as specified in such Participating Offeree’s written commitment. In the event the Transferor shall be unable to obtain the inclusion in the sale of all shares of Common Stock which the Transferor and each Participating Offeree desires to have included in the sale, the number of shares of Common Stock to be sold in the sale by the Transferor and each Participating Offeree shall be reduced on a pro rata basis according to the proportion which the number of shares of Common Stock which each such party desires to have included in the sale bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock desired by all such parties to have included in the sale.
     8.3 The provisions of this Section 8 of Article IV shall not apply to (i) any Transfer to the Corporation or other Stockholders pursuant to Section 6 of Article IV or (ii) any Permitted Transfer.
     8.4 The Corporation may elect not to recognize any Transfer by Class B Common Stockholders to Third Parties that are not Permitted Transferees which do not comply with this Section 8 of Article IV on the books of the Corporation, and any such Transfer shall be null and void and of no legal effect.
     8.5 In the event the consideration to be paid in exchange for shares of Common Stock in a Transfer proposed pursuant to this Section 8 includes any securities, and the receipt thereof by a Class B Common Stockholder would require under applicable law (a) the registration or qualification of such securities or of any person as a broker or dealer or agent with respect to such securities or (b) the provision to any Class B Common Stockholder of any information regarding the Corporation that such Class B Common Stockholder would not otherwise be entitled to receive, such securities or the issuer thereof, such Stockholder shall not have the right to transfer shares of Common Stock in such proposed Transfer. In such event, the Corporation,

at the direction of the Transferors, may but shall not be obligated to pay or cause to be paid to such Class B Common Stockholder in lieu thereof, against surrender of the shares of Common Stock which would have otherwise been transferred by such Class B Common Stockholder in the proposed Transfer, an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of such shares of Common Stock as of the date such securities would have been issued in exchange for such shares of Common Stock.
     8.6 In the event any holder of Class A Common Stock sells shares of Common Stock other than (a) to an Affiliate, (b) to the Corporation or (c) pursuant to a Company Sale or Qualified Initial Public Offering, each Class B Common Stockholder shall be entitled, by virtue of ownership of shares of Class B Common Stock, to receive not less than (15) days prior written notice from the Corporation (the “Class A Notice”) of such intended Transfer. If such Class A Notice does not give each Class B Common Stockholder the opportunity to sell such Class B Common Stockholder’s Come Along Percentage in the transactions contemplated therein, each Class B Common Stockholder may sell to the Corporation, and the Corporation shall be obligated to purchase, each such Class B Common Stockholder’s Come Along Percentage of Class B Common Stock.
9. Rights of Participation.
     9.1 Rights of Participation. Each Class B Common Stockholder, so long as it shall own at least 5% of the shares of Class B Common Stock issued as of the Effective Time, shall have the right to purchase up to a pro rata portion of New Securities (as defined in Section 9.2 of this Article IV) which the Corporation, from time to time, proposes to sell or issue following the date hereof. For purposes of this Section 9.1 of Article IV, a Class B Common Stockholder’s pro rata portion is the product of (A) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock which such Class B Common Stockholder then owns (on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to the conversion of all securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock) and the denominator of which is the total number of such shares of Common Stock held by all Stockholders (on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to the exercise of all Rollover Options, if any and the conversion of all securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock), multiplied by (B) the number of New Securities the Corporation proposes to sell or issue.
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the participation by any Class B Common Stockholder in a sale by the Corporation of New Securities would require under applicable law (x) the registration or qualification of such securities or of any Person as a broker or dealer or agent with respect to such securities or (y) the provision to any such Class B Common Stockholder of any material non-public information regarding the Corporation or such securities that such Class B Common Stockholder would not otherwise be entitled to receive, such Stockholder shall not have the right to purchase New Securities pursuant to this Section 9.1 of Article IV, unless otherwise authorized by the Board of Directors. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that the Corporation shall not be under any obligation to effect a registration of such securities under the 1933 Act or similar state statutes.

     9.2 Definition of New Securities. “New Securities” shall mean any Common Stock or other equity securities of the Corporation whether now authorized or not, any rights, options or warrants to purchase Common Stock or other equity securities and any indebtedness or preferred stock of the Corporation which is convertible into Common Stock or other equity securities (or which is convertible into a security which is, in turn, convertible into Common Stock or other equity securities); provided, that the term “New Securities” does not include (i) indebtedness of the Corporation which is not by its terms convertible into Common Stock; (ii) Common Stock issued as a stock dividend to all holders of Common Stock pro rata or upon any subdivision or combination of shares of Common Stock; (iii) Common Stock issued to any employee or director and approved by the Board of Directors and any employee or director stock options approved by the Board of Directors; (iv) Common Stock issued in exchange for the cancellation or retirement of any debt securities of the Corporation or in connection with any restructuring or other financial workout of the Corporation; (v) Common Stock or warrants to purchase Common Stock issued to non-Affiliates of the Corporation as part of a bona fide debt offering of units comprised of such Common Stock or warrants and a debt security of the Corporation; (vi) Common Stock issued in connection with the acquisition of another corporation or other entity by the Corporation by merger, purchase of substantially all assets or other reorganization; (vii) the issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise or conversion of any rights, options or warrants to purchase Common Stock; (viii) Common Stock issuable in a Public Offering; or (ix) Common Stock issued in respect of services provided (other than as an employee) to the Corporation or its subsidiaries and approved by the Board of Directors; and provided, further, that if any “New Securities” include Common Stock and other equity securities coupled as a package, “New Securities” shall mean the package of securities and not each class of securities individually.
     9.3 Notice from the Corporation. In the event the Corporation proposes to issue New Securities, each Class B Common Stockholder who has a right of participation under this Section 9 shall be entitled to receive written notice from the Corporation of such proposal, describing the type of New Securities and the price and the terms upon which the Corporation proposes to issue the same. For a period often (10) business days following the delivery of such notice by the Corporation, the Corporation shall be deemed to have irrevocably offered to sell to each Class B Common Stockholder its pro rata share of such New Securities for the price and upon the terms specified in the notice. Each Class B Common Stockholder may exercise its rights of participation hereunder by giving written notice to the Corporation and stating therein the quantity of New Securities to be purchased. Each Class B Common Stockholder shall also be entitled to indicate a desire to purchase all or a portion of any New Securities remaining after such pro rata allocation. If, as a result of such oversubscription right, such oversubscriptions exceed the total number of New Securities available in respect of such oversubscription right, the oversubscribing Class B Common Stockholders shall be cut back with respect to their oversubscriptions on a pro rata basis or as they may otherwise agree among themselves.
     9.4 Sale by the Corporation. In the event that the Class B Common Stockholders who have a right of participation under this Section 8 of Article IV fail to commit to purchase all of such New Securities within said ten (10) business day period, the Corporation shall have ninety (90) days thereafter to sell the New Securities with respect to which the right of participation was not exercised, at a price and upon terms no more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified in the Corporation’s notice given pursuant to Section 9.3 of Article IV.
