THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED SERVICES AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into this 29th day of June, 2015 (the “Effective Date”), by Accolade, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Accolade”) and Comcast Cable Communications Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, on behalf of itself, its Affiliates and The Comcast Comprehensive Health and Welfare Plan (“Comcast”). Comcast and Accolade are individually referred to herein as a “Party” and, collectively, as the “Parties.” Defined terms used herein have the meanings assigned in Schedule 1 unless otherwise defined herein.

 

Background

 

Accolade and Comcast were parties to a certain Services Agreement dated February 6, 2009 (“First Service Agreement”) and a Services Agreement dated April 20, 2011 (“Second Service Agreement”). The Parties desire to amend and restate the Second Service Agreement by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

Comcast desires to procure from Accolade, and Accolade desires to provide to Comcast, for the benefit of the Members (as defined below) of Comcast’s self-insured medical plans, the healthcare coordination services described in this Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein.

 

1.                                      Objectives.

1.3                               The Parties shall work together and in good faith (together with Comcast’s plan administrators and health benefit consultants) to identify, and, subject to Comcast’s prior written approval which may be given in Comcast’s sole discretion, implement plan design changes that will improve the ability of the Parties to meet the objectives set forth in Section 1.1 above. Comcast and Accolade shall mutually agree to how plan design changes will be incorporated into the Services of Accolade.

(each such group to be referred to as a “Group” and jointly as “Groups”). Prior to the Effective Date, Accolade has been providing Services for Members in the following Groups, which shall be combined into a single Group (the “Initial Group”) as of the Effective Date: [***]. Accolade will, upon request and reasonable notice from Comcast, implement the Services for additional Groups comprised of additional Comcast eligible participants (“Additional Members”) in accordance with Section 4.

Beginning on the date set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto for each respective Group receiving Services or as otherwise mutually agreed (the “In­Service Date”), Accolade will provide the Services described on Exhibit B. Services to Members shall be delivered in a manner that is adapted to the needs of the Members.

 

2.3                               Service Scope. The Services will be delivered for the benefit of each of the respective Group’s eligible employees that enroll in a Comcast self-insured medical benefit plan and their enrolled spouses, domestic partners and dependents (collectively, the “Members”).

3.1.7                     Develop, produce, and distribute to all Members, at Accolade’s cost, communication materials describing the Services and related programs for general distribution (“Service Materials”), with such Services Materials subject to Comcast’s prior review and approval. Service Materials that are sent to small groups of Members on a periodic basis (“Recurrent Service Materials”) shall be reviewed and approved in advance by Comcast on an annual basis, and, provided such Recurrent Service Materials have gone through such annual review, do not need to be re-reviewed and re­ approved before each small group mailing. From time to time, Comcast may reasonably request additional marketing and communication services, and the Parties will agree as to the compensation to Accolade for such additional services. For the sake of clarity, Service Materials will not include on-going or electronic communications with individual Members;

 

3.1.7.1           Ensure that all Service Materials and Recurrent Service Materials comply with all laws and regulations, and the obligations set forth in Exhibit L; and

 

3.1.7.2           Ensure that it provides a mechanism by which any Member may opt out of receiving Service Materials and Recurrent Service Materials;

 

3.1.7.3           Monitor and review communications with individual Members and any other individual outreach contacts from Accolade through periodic audits to ensure compliance with Accolade’s obligations under this Agreement; further, Accolade shall provide a mechanism by which any Member may opt out of receiving such individual communications or contacts;

 

3.1.8                     Fully comply with Comcast’s information security requirements, as set forth in Exhibit E, and with any applicable law regarding information security, including but not limited to the Health Insurance Portability Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”);

 

3.1.9                     Subject to the provisions of Section 3.2.7 (Extraordinary Events), ensure that it has commercially reasonable redundancy between its health assistant centers located in Plymouth Meeting, PA and Scottsdale, AZ, and any other facility it may operate, such that in the event one health assistant center is unable to provide call-answering Services for any reason, calls from Members to Accolade Health Assistants® are rerouted to another health assistant center, which shall provide call-answering Services to Members.

 

3.1.10              Implement and enforce operational controls to ensure that (i) the Services provided by Accolade do not constitute the practice of medicine (as the same may be defined by any state in which the Services are provided or

received), and (ii) Members are clearly informed, using language reviewed and approved in advance by Comcast, that the Services being provided by Accolade do not constitute the practice of medicine. Such controls shall include, but not be limited to, the following:

 

3.1.10.1    Licensure: Accolade shall ensure that its health assistant centers have obtained all applicable licenses and certifications in all of the states in which they are required to be licensed, provided, however, that if such health assistant centers constitute a call center under any applicable law, Accolade shall comply with applicable laws and regulations pertaining to call centers;

 

3.1.10.2    Representation of Services: Accolade shall undertake a periodic review of its its website, Service Materials, and other communications with Members (including phone calls and electronic communications; collectively, “Member Communications”) to confirm that its substantive written materials clearly convey that the Services being provided are not medical services. In the event that a Member’s situation is a medical emergency, or such Member is requesting medical advice to be given by Accolade, Accolade shall advise such Member to seek (in the case of an emergency, immediate) medical advice from a licensed medical provider;

 

3.1.10.3    Training: Accolade shall perform ongoing training of Accolade Health Assistants® to make sure they understand the limitations set forth in this Section 3.1.11; and that they may not hold themselves out or be held out as practicing medicine in their interaction with a Member. Accolade will also perform ongoing training for any Accolade Personnel who is or may be in direct contact with a Member in connection with Member Communications;

 

3.1.10.4    Internal Controls/Risk Management: Accolade Health Assistant® performance shall be regularly monitored by Accolade to determine compliance with Section 3.1.11:

Accolade shall have a disciplinary mechanism in place in the event of noncompliance by Accolade Personnel with the obligations set forth herein; and

 

Subcontractors. For the avoidance of doubt, a subcontractor who is retained in connection with the provision of Accolade’s Service Management Services, set forth on Exhibit C. shall not be subject to this Section 3.1.11; provided, however, that regardless of whether such subcontractors have been retained for the purpose of providing medical services to Members or not, Accolade shall be responsible for its own subcontractors in connection with the performance of Services and shall ensure that Accolade’s contracts with such subcontractors require such subcontractors to comply with applicable law at all times while performing any part of the Services. For Accolade’s subcontractors who are practicing medicine, Accolade shall require evidence of proper licensing and adequate insurance on an annual basis, and shall share such evidence with Comcast upon request.

 

3.1.10.5    Comcast shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon reasonable request and subject to compliance with all applicable federal and state laws, to conduct an audit or review of Accolade’s operational controls to determine appropriate compliance with this Section 3.1.11, including but not limited to the right to audit recordings of calls with Members.

 

3.2                               Responsibilities of Comcast. Comcast’s primary responsibilities are to:

3.2.2                     Encourage cooperation from Comcast’s past, current and future third party vendors including all health plan administrators (e.g., [***]), all employee benefits administrators (e.g., [***]) and assist Accolade in obtaining the necessary data feeds from data providers (e.g., [***]) in a timely fashion, including, but not limited to, access to claims and network provider data from claims processors and enrollment updates from third-party benefits administrators. Comcast will keep Accolade informed of any changes in or additions to any of such third party vendors;

 

3.2.3                     Provide relevant Member demographic and eligibility data as may be required for Accolade to perform the Services;

 

3.2.4                     Subject to Comcast’s prior approval (at its sole discretion) and Accolade’s performance of its obligations set forth in Section 3.1.7, support, sponsor, timely review, aid in the distribution and integration of approved communications designed for general distribution to Members regarding the Services and provide access to Members for communications from Accolade regarding the Services (including, for example, the provision of

available then-current contact information such as addresses, phone numbers and email addresses for Members, all in a timely manner);

 

3.2.5                     Keep Accolade informed of any significant changes in Comcast’s Groups, Member population, or plan designs in a timely fashion; and

 

3.2.6                     Keep Accolade informed, with advance notice of not less than [***], of any significant employee communications regarding benefits, coverages, incentives or matters relating to the Services. For purposes of this Section 3.2.6, a “significant employee communication” shall mean those communications which [***]. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, [***] shall not be subject to the advance notice provisions of this Section 3.2.6, provided, however, that in the event Comcast does not give Accolade advance notice in accordance with this Section 3.2.6 (whether or not the communication is deemed [***]) and inbound calls to Accolade exceed the threshold set forth herein, the Parties agree to equitably adjust the Performance Guarantees for such period of increased call volume.

 

3.2.7                     Extraordinary Events. Neither Accolade nor Comcast can predict delays or failures in performance under this Agreement resulting from events beyond their reasonable control, including without limitation “acts of God,” fire, flood, strikes, riots, new laws (including laws in non-U.S. jurisdictions from which Accolade Personnel are providing Services) which prevent or impede the carrying out of the Services, or the results of terrorist activity, delays, or failures of third party suppliers, and electronic and other power failures (each, an “Extraordinary Event”). In such event, the Parties may agree to equitably adjust the terms and conditions set forth herein in order to mitigate the impact of any such event or series of events, including but not limited to [***]. The operation of the preceding sentences shall not, however, relieve a Party from its obligation to meet the time schedules required herein (including Accolade’s Performance Guarantees listed in Exhibit F) unless the Party shall have taken commercially reasonable precautions to anticipate and avoid the occurrence of the Extraordinary Event and upon its occurrence shall have used commercially reasonable efforts to ameliorate or eliminate its effect. In no event shall any postponement of either Party’s obligations hereunder as a result of an Extraordinary Event exceed the period of time that the Extraordinary Event had an affect on such Party. If a delay or interruption of performance by either Party resulting from its experiencing an Extraordinary Event exceeds [***], then the other Party may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to the Party unable to meet its obligations hereunder. All monies due to each Party shall be paid in accordance with this Agreement through the effective date of termination. To the extent a Party has complied with the terms of this Section 3.2, such delay or interruption shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement.

3.2.8                     Nothing in this Section 3.2 will be construed to excuse Accolade from any failure to comply with Section 3.3 below.

 

3.2.9                     For the sake of clarity, examples of an Extraordinary Event include (but are not limited to):

 

3.2.9.1           Any event that creates a state of emergency in any metropolitan area in which Accolade maintains a health assistant center, and Accolade is unable to perform the Services from another of its health assistant center locations or from the homes of Accolade Health Assistant® (to the extent such Accolade Health Assistants® are able to perform the Services from their homes) in accordance with Accolade’s commercially reasonable redundancy capabilities as required in Section 3.1.10;

 

3.2.9.2           A widespread telecommunications failure or computer outage or virus that impacts any of Accolade’s health assistant centers;

 

3.2.9.3           An event caused by or under the control of Comcast or one of its third parties that renders Accolade’s performance commercially implausible; or

 

3.2.9.4           Any unforeseen event outside of the control of Accolade that renders Accolade’s performance commercially implausible.

 

3.3                               Disaster Recovery. Accolade maintains a disaster recovery plan designed to maintain Comcast’s access to the Services, and to protect against the unintended destruction of Comcast and Member data, which plan, unless otherwise specified herein, shall provide for daily incremental back-up of the data with full back-up each week-end, and archival of such data at a secure facility. Subject to Section 3.2.7, above, the disaster recovery plan provides that in no event shall Critical Services be [***].

 

4.                                      Implementation of Additional Members.

 

4.1                               Additional Members. At any time during the Term, Accolade shall provide the Services to Additional Members upon Comcast’s reasonable request. If a Comcast acquisition is anticipated, the Parties agree that Comcast shall use commercially reasonable efforts to periodically provide Accolade with its best current estimates of the number of Additional Members anticipated to be added under this Agreement and the anticipated timing of the closing of such acquisition. In either case, Comcast shall notify Accolade of all third party vendors serving the Additional Members, including but not limited to health plans and eligibility vendors.

4.2                               Changes in Size of Groups. At any time during the Term (hereinafter defined), if the amount of Members in any particular Group, including Additional Groups subsequently added, increases or decreases by [***] or more from the amount of Members existing in a Group as of any point in the prior Service Year, then the calculation of the Incentives, as described in Exhibit G shall be adjusted as mutually agreed by the Parties. A change in Group size may result from the movement of Members between Groups.

Without limiting the foregoing, Confidential Information regarding Members shall, as between Comcast and Accolade, be the Confidential Information of Comcast.

13.1.2              Except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement, each Party agrees to maintain the confidentiality of Confidential Information and not to disclose, or permit any third party or entity access to, the Confidential Information without prior written permission of the other Party.

13.1.3              Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to its agents and contractors who have a strict need to know it in connection with the provision or receipt of Services, provided that any such third party is subject to written confidentiality obligations substantively similar to these terms and which will protect the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. With respect to Accolade Personnel performing Services outside of the United States (“Foreign Personnel”), Accolade shall require a written confidentiality agreement with such Foreign Personnel that also includes provisions allowing reasonable inspections and audits of such Personnel, the ability to interview employees, contractor and subcontractors of such Personnel to verify compliance with confidentiality obligations, assignment of Work Product, indemnification provisions, departure protocols, dispute resolution and waiver of any ownership of, license to or moral rights regarding Comcast’s patents, trade secrets, proprietary information or intellectual property. With respect to Accolade Foreign Personnel, such obligations will apply regardless of the law of the jurisdiction from which such Accolade Personnel are providing Services. Comcast’s Confidential Information, including without limitation computer data and programs, provided by Comcast or accessed (or accessible) by Accolade Personnel, or personnel of Accolade’s permitted subcontractors, shall be used by such Personnel or personnel only in connection with the obligations set forth hereunder, and shall not be exploited by Accolade or its permitted subcontractors for any internal, commercial or other purpose in any manner whatsoever. Accolade agrees to cooperate with Comcast in all non-US jurisdictions in which it utilizes Accolade Personnel lo provide Services hereunder in filing assignments, applying for and/or aiding Comcast in applying for patents or exceptions relating to Comcast Confidential Information under this Agreement, as required by patent law in the applicable non-US jurisdiction and the local government’s intellectual property office or as otherwise required under applicable rules or regulations.

 

13.1.4              Except as otherwise provided herein, all Confidential Information shall be held in confidence for perpetuity, unless the Confidential Information is no longer confidential pursuant to Section 13.1.1.

 

13.1.5              For the sake of clarity, the Personal Information of any Comcast Member who is also a Comcast subscriber shall be included within Section 13.1.

 

13.2                        Accolade hereby acknowledges that Comcast has a special responsibility under the law to keep certain Personal Information private and confidential. Accolade also acknowledges that the Personal Information to which it will have access pursuant

to this Agreement from Comcast or Comcast third-party Personnel constitutes Comcast Confidential Information and that Accolade in no way possesses or shall gain possession of any ownership or other proprietary rights with respect to such Personal Information. Accolade acknowledges and understands that Personal Information related to subscribers and prospective subscribers to Comcast’s or its Affiliates’ products and services is subject to the subscriber privacy protections set forth in Section 631 of the Cable Communications Policy Act of 1984, as amended (47 U.S.C. Sec. 551), as well as other applicable federal and state laws. To the extent that such laws are applicable to Accolade or Accolade Services, Accolade agrees that it shall use such information in strict compliance with Section 631 and all other applicable laws governing the use, collection, disclosure and storage of such information. Accolade further agrees to restrict disclosure of such Personal Information to those Accolade employees or sub-contractors (and their employees, agents or subcontractors) with a need to know and who are bound by the confidentiality provisions herein and shall not further disclose such information to any other third parties without the prior written consent of Comcast.

 

13.3                        All Confidential Information that is collected, stored or otherwise maintained by Accolade pursuant to this Agreement shall be maintained in a secure environment that meets or exceeds industry standards for the protection of highly sensitive information. At a minimum, such safeguards shall include storing any Confidential Information that is collected or obtained by Accolade in a secure form and transmitting such Confidential Information in encrypted form, and utilization of authentication and access controls with respect to any media, applications, operating systems or equipment utilized by Accolade and its subcontractors, and utilization of host and network based intrusion detection systems (with third party penetration testing). In the event of a breach or suspected breach of security of any system, website, database, equipment or storage medium or facility that results or could result in unauthorized access to any Comcast Confidential Information (including without limitation Personal Information, or any Work Product) by any third party (including any Personnel of Accolade that is not authorized to access such information), Accolade shall notify Comcast [***], and make [***] efforts to re-secure its systems immediately. Accolade shall treat any information related to such security incident(s) as Comcast’s Confidential Information. Accolade agrees to provide reasonable cooperation to Comcast and any applicable government agency in investigating and resolving any such security incident.

 

13.4                        Each Party recognizes and acknowledges that any use or disclosure of the Confidential Information of the other Party in a manner inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement may cause the other Party irreparable damage for which remedies at law may be inadequate. Accordingly, the non-breaching Party shall have the right to seek an immediate injunction in respect of any breach of these confidentiality obligations without posting bond to obtain such relief. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this paragraph shall not in any way limit the remedies in law or equity otherwise available to the non-breaching Party

14.                               Indemnification.

 

14.1                        By Accolade. In addition to its obligations to indemnify Comcast as set forth in other Sections of this Agreement, Accolade will indemnify and hold Comcast and its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, harmless from and against any claim (i) resulting from a breach by Accolade or Accolade Personnel of its obligations under [***] of this Agreement; (ii) a breach of this Agreement resulting from [***] under this Agreement; (iii) any breach or inaccuracy of any covenant, representation or warranty by Accolade of this Agreement; and/or (iv) assertions against Comcast under workers’ compensation or similar employee benefit acts by Accolade or its employees or agents.

 

14.2                        IP Indemnification.

 

14.2.1              At its expense, Accolade shall defend (if requested by Comcast), indemnify and hold Comcast, its parents, Affiliates, subsidiaries and their officers, directors, agents, and employees harmless against all costs, expenses and losses (including reasonably attorney fees and costs) to the extent incurred through a claim that the use of the Accolade Confidential Information provided to Comcast by Accolade under this Agreement (“IP Products”) infringes any patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark or other intellectual property right of any third party (“IP Claims”).

 

14.2.2              If any IP Product becomes, or in Accolade’s reasonable opinion is likely to become, the subject of a successful IP Claim of infringement of any intellectual property rights, then, in addition to any other rights Comcast may have under this Agreement, Accolade shall modify the delivery of Services to eliminate any potential or actual infringement.

 

14.3                        By Comcast. Comcast will indemnify and hold Accolade and its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, and Personnel, harmless from and against any claims [***]

 

14.4                        Indemnification Procedures. If any claim is commenced against a Party for which such Party is entitled to indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) under Section 14, the Indemnified Party will provide notice of such claim to Indemnifying Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) as promptly as practicable; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 14 except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party will be entitled, if it so elects, in a notice promptly delivered to the Indemnified Party, to

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENTS, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE ACCOLADE, INC. HAS DETERMINED THE INFORMATION (I) IS NOT MATERIAL AND (II) WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO ACCOLADE, INC. IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.

 

immediately take control of the defense, settlement, and investigation of such claim and to employ and engage attorneys reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party to handle and defend the same, at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost. The Indemnified Party will cooperate, at the cost and request of the Indemnifying Party, in all reasonable respects with the Indemnifying Party and its attorneys in the investigation, trial and defense of such claim and any appeal arising therefrom. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume full control over the defense of a claim as provided in this Section, the Indemnifying Party may participate in the defense of such claim, at its sole cost and expense, and the Indemnified Party will have the right to defend the claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate, at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party. Neither Party shall enter into a settlement of any such claim that imposes any liability or material obligation on the other Party or materially prejudices the other Party’s rights without such Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Further, neither party shall enter into a settlement of any such claim without the other Party’s written consent unless such settlement is solely for monetary payment by the Indemnifying Party or a third-party and contains an explicit and complete unconditional release of Indemnified Party in connection with the Services and IP Products. For purposes of this Section 14.4, an IP Claim shall constitute a claim.

 

15.                               Insurance.

 

15.1                        Accolade shall, at its sole cost, maintain no less than the following insurance in full force and effect during the Term of this Agreement:

 

15.1.1              Commercial General Liability/Umbrella Coverage. Contractor’s Protective Liability; Completed Operations; Product Liability; Contractual Liability; Personal Injury; and Property Damage caused by explosion, collapse and underground damage; and Broad-Form Property Damage Endorsement.

15.1.2              Automobile Liability.

benefits and claims in the amount of not less than $[***] per claim and $[***] in the aggregate.

 

15.2                        All such insurance shall be carried with companies with at least an A-VU rating from A.M. Best, licensed to do business in the jurisdiction where the Services are to be performed, and, such policies, as permitted by carriers, shall name Comcast and its parents, Affiliates and subsidiaries and its and their employees and agents as additional insured parties, and shall contain no cross suits exclusion.

 

16.                               Warrants. On the date hereof, in partial consideration for Comcast’s obligations under this Agreement, Accolade shall issue a warrant to Comcast or its designated Affiliate in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit J.

Exhibit L sets forth the sales and publicity uses of the Comcast name and trademarks which have been pre-approved by Comcast.

 

18.                               Dispute Resolution.

 

18.1                        Initial Discussions. Prior to the initiation of formal dispute resolution procedures with respect to any dispute (a “Dispute”) under this Agreement, the Parties will first attempt to resolve such dispute informally, as follows:

 

18.1.1              First, the applicable first-level individuals from Comcast and Accolade will meet as often, as promptly and for a duration the Parties deem necessary to discuss the Dispute and negotiate in good faith in an effort to resolve the Dispute.

 

18.1.1.1    If the steps taken in Section 18.1.1 fail to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days after the referral of the Dispute to them, then each of Comcast and Accolade will appoint one higher level individual who is not involved on a day-to-day basis with the subject matter of this Agreement. Such senior executives will meet as often, as promptly, and for a duration the Parties reasonably deem necessary to discuss the Dispute and negotiate in good faith in an effort to resolve the Dispute.

 

18.1.1.2    During the course of such discussions, all reasonable requests made by one Party to another for non-privileged information, reasonably related to the Dispute, will be honored in order that each of the Parties may be fully apprised

18.1.2              Formal proceedings for the resolution of a Dispute will not be commenced until the earlier of (i) the good faith determination by the appointed individuals that amicable resolution through continued negotiation of the matter does not appear likely; or (ii) thirty (30) days following the date that the Dispute was first referred to the appointed senior individuals.

 

18.1.3              If the Parties are still unable to reconcile their differences, either Party may seek relief from a court of competent jurisdiction. The foregoing will not be construed to prohibit either Party from directly seeking injunctive relief without first complying with this Section 18.

 

19.                               Limitations of Liability.

 

19.1                        IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER ENTITY FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, HOWEVER CAUSED, ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, AND WHETHER OR NOT THAT PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

20.                               General.

Neither Party will, without the prior written consent of the other Party, assign this Agreement or any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement (including by operation of law) [***]  No assignment with or without consent shall constitute a novation or otherwise relieve either Party of its obligations hereunder. The consent of a Party to any assignment of this Agreement will not constitute such Party’s consent to further assignment. This Agreement will be binding on the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Any assignment in contravention of this subsection will be void.

 

20.2                        Notices.

COMMON STOCK OF

ACCOLADE, INC.

 

THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Comcast Alpha Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, or its registered assigns (as the case may be, “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, to purchase from Accolade, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), one million (1,000,000) validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), subject to vesting and adjustment as provided herein, at a purchase price equal to $2.75 per share (the “Warrant Price”), subject to adjustment as provided herein, at any time and from time to time on or before April 1, 2020 (the “Expiration Date”), subject to earlier termination as provided herein.

RECITALS

 

1.                                      This Warrant is being issued pursuant to Section 16 of that certain Amended and Restated Services Agreement dated May    2015 by and between the Company and an Affiliate of the Holder (the “Services Agreement”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Services Agreement.

 

2.                                      The term “Warrant” as used herein shall mean this Warrant, and any warrants delivered in substitution or exchange therefor as provided herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants set forth above and herein contained, the Company hereby issues this Warrant to Holder, and the parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

 

ARTICLE 1 VESTING.

 

1.1                               Vested Shares. As of any date on which Holder elects to exercise all or a portion of this Warrant, Holder shall be entitled to purchase up to that number of Vested Shares (as defined below) at a purchase price per Share equal to the Warrant Price, subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Warrant.

 

1.2                               Vesting Schedule. The number of Shares which Holder is at any time entitled to purchase hereunder (the “Vested Shares”) shall equal:

 

1.2.1                     From and after the date hereof, twenty percent (20%) of the Shares; plus

 

1.2.2                     From and after April 1, 2016, an additional twenty percent (20%) of the Shares, provided that Accolade Core Revenues, calculated for the year ended December 31, 2015, equal or exceed $13.20 PMPM; plus

 

1.2.3                     From and after April 1, 2017, an additional twenty percent (20%) of the Shares, provided that Accolade Core Revenues, calculated for the year ended December 31, 2016, equal or exceed $12.90 PMPM; plus

 

1.2.4                     From and after April 1, 2018, an additional twenty percent (20%) of the Shares, provided that Accolade Core Revenues, calculated for the year ended December 31, 2017, equal or exceed $12.90 PMPM; plus

 

1.2.5                     From and after April 1, 2019, an additional twenty percent (20%) of the Shares, provided that Accolade Core Revenues, calculated for the year ended December 31, 2018, equal or exceed $12.90 PMPM.

 

For purposes of this Warrant:

 

(a)                                 Each date referenced in the foregoing Sections 1.2.1 through 1.2.5 (inclusive) is referred to herein as a “Vesting Date”.

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENTS, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE ACCOLADE, INC. HAS DETERMINED THE INFORMATION (I) IS NOT MATERIAL AND (II) WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO ACCOLADE, INC. IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.

 

(b)                                 “Accolade Core Revenues” shall mean, for any given year, the annual Base Fee for that year plus the Incentive Payments earned for that year less Penalties for Performance Guarantees incurred in that year, all expressed on a PMPM basis. For the sake of clarity, Accolade Core Revenues shall not include any payments made to Company pursuant to Schedule C to the Services Agreement (Service Management), or any schedule that amends, substitutes or replaces such Schedule C. Each capitalized term used in this definition is used as defined in the Services Agreement.

 

(c)                                  In the event that Accolade is unable to calculate Accolade Core Revenues by the Vesting Date, Accolade shall make such calculation within forty-five (45) days thereafter, and such determination of Accolade Core Revenues shall be retroactive to the Vesting Date.

 

(d)                                 For the avoidance of doubt, the vesting of the Shares attributable to any particular Vesting Date shall be independent of the vesting of the Shares attributable to any other Vesting Date, such that (i) Shares shall become Vested Shares as of the applicable Vesting Date if the applicable Accolade Core Revenues threshold is achieved even if the Shares attributable to a prior or subsequent Vesting Date did or do not become Vested Shares because the applicable Accolade Core Revenues threshold attributable to such Shares was or is not achieved and (ii) if Accolade Core Revenues exceed the applicable Accolade Core Revenues threshold in any given calendar year, such excess amount may not be carried backward or forward to prior or subsequent calendar years in which the applicable Accolade Core Revenues threshold was not or is not achieved.

 

1.3                               Vesting Example. For purposes of clarification, Holder may exercise this Warrant from time to time, in whole or in part, and if Holder exercises this Warrant with respect to all or any portion of the Vested Shares, such exercise shall not affect the continued vesting of the balance of the Shares as provided above. For illustration purposes only, if twenty percent (20%) of the Shares become Vested Shares on the first Vesting Date and Holder exercises this Warrant with respect to all of those Vested Shares, Holder shall be entitled to exercise this Warrant with respect to an additional twenty percent (20%) of the Shares from and after the next Vesting Date if those Shares become Vested Shares on such Vesting Date, and so on until the full exercise, expiration or termination of this Warrant.

 

ARTICLE 2 EXERCISE.

 

2.1                               Method of Exercise. Subject to Article 1, Holder may from time to time exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, by delivering a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached as Appendix 1 to the principal office of the Company. Unless Holder is exercising the conversion right set forth in Section 2.2, Holder shall also deliver to the Company a check or wire transfer (to an account designated by the Company) for the aggregate Warrant Price for the Vested Shares being purchased.

 

2.2                               Conversion Right. In lieu of exercising this Warrant as specified in Section 2.1, Holder may from time to time convert this Warrant, in whole or in part, into a number of Shares determined by dividing (a) the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Vested Shares (or other securities, cash or property otherwise issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) as to which this

 

74

 

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENTS, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE ACCOLADE, INC. HAS DETERMINED THE INFORMATION (I) IS NOT MATERIAL AND (II) WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO ACCOLADE, INC. IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.

 

Warrant is being so converted minus the aggregate Warrant Price for such Vested Shares, by (b) the Fair Market Value of one Share (or the other securities, cash or property otherwise issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to one Share). The Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined pursuant to Section 2.3. For the avoidance of doubt, any reference herein to the “exercise” of this Warrant shall include a conversion of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 2.2. If Holder has not exercised this Warrant on or prior to the Expiration Date, then immediately prior to the expiration of this Warrant on the Expiration Date (or any earlier termination of this Warrant as provided herein), this Warrant shall be deemed to have been converted automatically, and without any action by the Holder, pursuant to this Section 2.2.

 

2.3                               Fair Market Value. The fair market value (the “Fair Market Value”) of a Share (or other securities, cash or property otherwise issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be determined as of the applicable date by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith.

 

2.4                               Delivery of Certificate and New Warrant. Promptly after Holder exercises this Warrant and, if applicable, the Company receives payment of the aggregate Warrant Price, the Company shall deliver to Holder certificates for the Shares acquired and, if this Warrant has not been fully exercised and has not expired, a new Warrant representing the Shares not so acquired.

 

2.5                               Replacement of Warrants. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor.

 

2.6                               Treatment of Warrant Upon Acquisition of Company and Upon Initial Public Offering.

 

2.6.1                     Acquisition of Company. Upon the closing of an Acquisition (as defined below):

 

(a)                                 if, as of such closing of the Acquisition, (i) the Services Agreement has not been terminated (and is not terminated in connection with the Acquisition) or the Services Agreement has been terminated (or is terminated in connection with the Acquisition) but Holder and the Company or the surviving entity or acquiring party in the Acquisition (as the case may be, the “Acquiring Party”), or any of their respective Affiliates, have entered into an agreement that is similar in nature to the Services Agreement (whether before or in connection with the Acquisition), and (ii) all or any portion of this Warrant remains unvested, then, subject to Section 2.6.1(c) below, either (A) this Warrant shall continue in accordance with its terms (including the vesting of additional Shares in accordance with Article 1) and shall become an obligation of the Acquiring Party, exercisable for the type and amount of securities, cash or other property of Acquiring Party as determined pursuant to Section 3.4, or (B) all Shares that remain unvested under this Warrant shall become Vested Shares immediately but Holder shall be required to exercise this Warrant at any time at or prior to the closing of the Acquisition (and thereby participate in the Acquisition as a holder of any Shares issuable upon such exercise of this Warrant), whereupon this Warrant shall terminate; or

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENTS, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE ACCOLADE, INC. HAS DETERMINED THE INFORMATION (I) IS NOT MATERIAL AND (II) WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO ACCOLADE, INC. IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.

 

(b)                                 if, as of such closing of the Acquisition, (i) the Services Agreement has been terminated (or is terminated in connection with the Acquisition) and Holder and the Company or the Acquiring Party, or any of their respective Affiliates, have not entered into an agreement that is similar in nature to the Services Agreement (whether before or in connection with the Acquisition) or (ii) no portion of this Warrant remains unvested, then, subject to Section 2.6.1(c) below, either (A) this Warrant shall continue in accordance with its terms (which shall not include any additional vesting hereunder, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.7) and shall become an obligation of the Acquiring Party, exercisable for the type and amount of securities, cash or other property of Acquiring Party as determined pursuant to Section 3.4, or (B) Holder shall be required to exercise this Warrant at any time at or prior to the closing of the Acquisition (and thereby participate in the Acquisition as a holder of any Shares issuable upon such exercise of this Warrant) with the number of Vested Shares being calculated in accordance with Section 2.7, whereupon this Warrant shall terminate.

 

(c)                                  The Acquiring Party shall elect either to assume this Warrant as specified in clause (A) of Section 2.6.1(a) or Section 2.6.1(b), as applicable, or for Holder to be required to exercise this Warrant as specified in clause (B) of Section 2.6.1(a) or Section 2.6.1(b), as applicable. The Company shall provide Holder with written notice of any proposed Acquisition and the Acquiring Party’s election as to the treatment of this Warrant at least 10 days prior to the closing of the Acquisition. If (i) the Company (x) affirmatively and timely notifies Holder that the Acquiring Party is not assuming this Warrant as specified in clause (A) of Section 2.6.1(a) or Section 2.6.1(b), as applicable, or (y) fails to affirmatively and timely notify Holder of the Acquiring Party’s election between clause (A) and clause (B) of Section 2.6.1(a) or Section 2.6.1(b), as applicable, and (ii) Holder has not exercised this Warrant on or prior to the closing of the Acquisition, then this Warrant shall be deemed to have been converted automatically for the number of Shares specified in Section 2.6.1(a) or Section 2.6.1(b), as applicable, as provided in the last sentence of Section 2.2 immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition.

 

For the purpose of this Warrant, “Acquisition” means (A) any “person,” as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (other than Accretive II, L.P., any of its Affiliates, the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or any trustee, fiduciary or other person or entity holding securities under any employee benefit plan or trust of the Company or any of its subsidiaries), together with all “affiliates” and “associates” (as such terms are defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) of such person, shall become the “beneficial owner” (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than fifty percent (50%) of either (1) the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities having the right to vote in an election of the Board or (2) the then outstanding shares of Common Stock on an as-converted basis; or (B) the stockholders of the Company shall approve (1) any consolidation or merger of the Company where the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to the consolidation or merger would not, immediately after the consolidation or merger, beneficially own (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, shares representing in the aggregate more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting shares of the Company or the acquirer issuing cash or securities in the consolidation or merger (or of its ultimate parent company, if any), (2) any sale, lease, exclusive license, exchange

or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of transactions contemplated or arranged by any party as a single plan) of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or (3) any plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

 

2.6.2                     Initial Public Offering. The consummation by the Company of an initial public offering (“IPO”) of its Common Stock in a bona fide underwriting pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), shall not have any effect on this Warrant, but rather this Warrant shall continue in accordance with its terms (including the vesting of additional Shares in accordance with Article 1) from and after the consummation of such IPO.

 

2.7                               Treatment of Warrant Upon Termination of Services Agreement. If the Services Agreement terminates for any reason and Holder and the Company, or any of their respective Affiliates, have not entered into an agreement that is similar in nature to the Services Agreement in amendment, substitution or replacement thereof, then:

 

2.7.1                     this Warrant shall continue in accordance with its terms, except that the number of Vested Shares shall be set at (a) the number of Shares that are Vested Shares at the time of such termination plus (b) if such termination occurs between January 1 and April 1 of any year during the term of this Warrant, the number of Shares that would have become Vested Shares on April 1 of such year, if any, based upon the Accolade Core Revenues achieved in the prior year plus (c) if such termination is by the Company or its applicable Affiliate for convenience (i.e., without cause) or by Holder or its applicable Affiliate as a result of an uncured breach by the Company or its applicable Affiliates (after the expiration of all cure periods and subject to the applicable dispute resolution procedures set forth in the Service Agreement), a Pro Rata Portion (as defined below) of the Shares that would have become Vested Shares on the Vesting Date attributable to the year in which such termination occurs if the applicable Accolade Core Revenues threshold for such year was achieved; and

 

2.7.2                     except as provided in the foregoing Section 2.7.1, no additional Shares shall vest under the terms of this Warrant thereafter.

 

For purposes of the foregoing, “Pro Rata Portion” means the product of (i) twenty percent (20%) multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months that have elapsed in the year in which such termination occurs (inclusive of the date of such termination) and the denominator of which is 12.

 

For illustration purposes only, if (x) the Accolade Core Revenues threshold is achieved for 2015 such that 20% of the Shares become Vested Shares on April 1, 2016, (y) the Services Agreement is terminated by the Company or its applicable Affiliate for convenience on March 31, 2017, and (z) it is determined that the Accolade Core Revenues threshold was achieved for 2016, then this Warrant would be exercisable for 65% of the Shares, comprising the 20% of the Shares that were initially Vested Shares plus the 20% of the Shares that became Vested Shares on April 1, 2016 plus the 20% of the Shares that would have become Vested Shares on April 1, 2017 plus 5% of the Shares that would have become Vested Shares on April 1, 2018 (determined by

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENTS, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE ACCOLADE, INC. HAS DETERMINED THE INFORMATION (I) IS NOT MATERIAL AND (II) WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO ACCOLADE, INC. IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.

 

multiplying 20% by a fraction, the numerator of which is the 3 months that elapsed in 2017 and the denominator of which is 12).

 

ARTICLE 3 ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SHARES.

 

3.1                               Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Warrant Price then in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Warrant Price then in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this paragraph shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

 

3.2                               Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions. In the event the Company at any time, or from time to time after the Issue Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event the Warrant Price then in effect immediately before such event shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Warrant Price then in effect by a fraction:

 

3.2.1                     the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and

 

3.2.2                     the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution;

 

provided, however, that if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Warrant Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter the Warrant Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this paragraph as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions.

 

3.3                               Adjustment in Number of Warrant Shares. When any adjustment is required to be made in the Warrant Price pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.2, the number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed to the number determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the Warrant Price in effect immediately after such adjustment.

 

3.4                               Adjustment for Reorganization. If there shall occur any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale of stock or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Company in which the Common Stock is converted into or exchanged for

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENTS, MARKED BY [***], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE ACCOLADE, INC. HAS DETERMINED THE INFORMATION (I) IS NOT MATERIAL AND (II) WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO ACCOLADE, INC. IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.

 

securities, cash or other property (including any Acquisition covered by Section 2.6 but excluding any transaction covered by Sections 3.1 or 3.2) (collectively, a “Reorganization”), then, following such Reorganization, Holder shall receive upon exercise hereof, for each Vested Share (including any Shares that become Vested Shares after such Reorganization), the type and amount of securities, cash or other property which was issued or issuable with respect to a share of Common Stock pursuant to such Reorganization. In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board) shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of Holder, to the end that the provisions set forth in this Article 3 (including provisions with respect to changes in and other adjustments of the Warrant Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any securities, cash or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant.

 

3.5                               Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment pursuant to this Article 3, the Company at its expense shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable but in any event not later than 10 days thereafter, compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to Holder certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment (including the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property for which this Warrant shall be exercisable and the Warrant Price) and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the written request at any time of Holder (but in any event not later than 10 days thereafter), furnish or cause to be furnished to Holder a certificate setting forth (i) the Warrant Price then in effect and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities, cash or property which then would be received upon the exercise of this Warrant.

 

3.6                               Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and the number of Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share. If a fractional share interest arises upon any exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall eliminate such fractional share interest by paying Holder the amount computed by multiplying the fractional interest by the Fair Market Value of a full Share.

 

ARTICLE 4 NO STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS. This Warrant does not entitle Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof. Upon the exercise or exchange of this Warrant, however, the Company agrees that Holder shall be entitled to all of the rights, subject to all of the obligations, of a “Stockholder” under (a) the Company’s Investor Rights Agreement in effect at the time of such exercise or exchange; (b) the Company’s Registration Rights Agreement in effect at the time of such exercise or exchange; and (c) the Company’s Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement as in effect at the time of such exercise or exchange (collectively, the “Transfer Agreements”), in each case with respect to the Shares acquired upon such exercise or exchange, and in furtherance thereof, Holder shall, to the extent Holder is not already a party thereto, execute and deliver to the Company a joinder, and the Company hereby agrees to accept Holder’s joinder as a “Stockholder” party, to the Transfer Agreements.

ARTICLE 5 REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OF HOLDER. Holder represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

 

5.1                               Purchase for Own Account. This Warrant and the Shares to be acquired upon exercise of this Warrant by Holder will be acquired for investment for Holder’s account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the public resale or distribution within the meaning of the Securities Act. Holder has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring this Warrant or the Shares.

 

5.2                               Disclosure of Information. Holder has received or has had full access to all the information it considers necessary or appropriate to make an informed investment decision with respect to the acquisition of this Warrant and its underlying Shares. Holder further has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of this Warrant and its underlying Shares and to obtain additional information (to the extent the Company possessed such information or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense) necessary to verify any information furnished to Holder or to which Holder has access.

 

5.3                               Investment Experience. Holder understands that the acquisition of this Warrant and its underlying Shares involves substantial risk. Holder has experience as an investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that Holder can bear the economic risk of such Holder’s investment in this Warrant and the underlying Shares and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in this Warrant and the underlying Shares and/or has a preexisting personal or business relationship with the Company and certain of its officers, directors or controlling persons of a nature and duration that enables Holder to be aware of the character, business acumen and financial circumstances of such persons.

 

5.4                               Accredited Investor Status. Holder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

 

5.5                               The Securities Act. Holder understands that this Warrant and the Shares issuable upon exercise hereof have not been registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Holder’s investment intent as expressed herein. Holder understands that this Warrant and the Shares issued upon any exercise hereof must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act and qualified under applicable state securities laws, or unless exemption from such registration and qualification are otherwise available. Holder is aware of the provisions of Rules 144 and 144A promulgated under the Securities Act that permit limited resale of securities purchased in a private placement subject to satisfaction of certain conditions.

 

5.6                               No Public Market. Holder understands that no public market now exists for any of the securities issued by the Company and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Securities (as defined in Section 6.3(b) below).

6.4                               Compliance with Securities Laws on Transfer. This Warrant and the Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant may not be transferred or assigned in whole or in part without compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws by the transferor and the transferee (including, without limitation, the delivery of investment representation letters and legal opinions reasonably satisfactory to the Company, as reasonably requested by the Company). The Company shall not require the holder of any such Securities to provide an opinion of counsel if the transfer is to an Affiliate of such holder. Additionally, the Company agrees that it will not require an opinion of counsel if the Company, based on its good faith business judgment in light of all the then occurring circumstances, concurs in such holder’s assessment of compliance of the proposed disposition with the applicable provisions of Rule 144 or Rule 144A, including whether there is no material question as to the availability of current information as referenced in Rule 144(c), such holder represents that it has complied with Rule 144(d) and (e) in reasonable detail, the selling broker represents that it has complied with Rule 144(f), and the Company is provided with a copy of such holder’s notice of proposed sale, with such notice describing the manner and circumstances of the proposed transfer, sale, assignment or pledge in sufficient detail.

 

6.5                               Transfer Procedure. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.3 and 6.4 and upon providing the Company with written notice, Holder may transfer all or any part of this Warrant to any transferee; provided, however, that, in connection with any such transfer, Holder gives the Company notice of the portion of the Warrant being transferred with the name, address and taxpayer identification number of the transferee by delivering a fully executed Assignment in the form of Appendix 2 hereto, and surrenders this Warrant to the Company for reissuance to the transferee(s) (and Holder if applicable).

 

6.6                               Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed effective given: (a) upon personal delivery to the recipient; (b) when sent by confirmed facsimile if sent during normal business hours of the recipient; if not, then on the next business day; (c) five days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid; or (d) one business day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of receipt, in each case to the respective party’s address as set forth on the signature page hereto or such other address as either party may designate by ten (10) days advance written notice to the other party hereto.

construed as a waiver thereof and shall not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce this Warrant and each and every term hereof.

 

6.8                               Lock-Up Agreement. Holder agrees that, in connection with the Company’s initial public offering of its Common Stock, upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering, it shall not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any Securities (other than those included in such offering) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days except as may be required by law) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the underwriters (the “Lock-Up Period”), provided that each officer, director and holder of the outstanding capital stock of the Company shall be bound by a similar agreement. In order to enforce the covenants set forth in this Section 6.8, and until the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Securities.

 

6.9                               Counterparts. This Warrant may be executed in counterparts, all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

6.11                        Survival. The provisions of Sections 6.3, 6.4 and 6.8 hereof shall survive the exercise of this Warrant and shall remain in effect until such time as Holder or any transferee of the Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant no longer holds such Shares.

 

6.12                        Severability. If any term or provision of this Warrant, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Warrant, or application to other persons or circumstances, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Warrant shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 

6.13                        Notices of Record Date, etc. In the event:

 

6.13.1              the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock (or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right; or

 

6.13.2              of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the Common Stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (including any Acquisition covered under Section 2.6), or any IPO of the Company’s Common Stock; or

6.13.3              of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company,

 

then, and in each such case, the Company will send or cause to be sent to Holder a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the record date for such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, or (ii) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, IPO, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, IPO, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. Such notice shall be sent at least 10 days prior to the record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice.

 

6.14                        Reservation of Stock. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant, such number of Shares and other securities, cash and/or property, as from time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant.

 

6.15                        Entire Agreement.
