10.4           Any demand to arbitrate shall be deemed to have been made on the date actually received by the party upon whom it is served and, for purposes of the statute of limitations, shall have the same effect as if suit had been filed on the date the demand is made.  Any demand to arbitrate any claim arising from or in connection with his Employment Agreement must be received within six (6) months after the claim first arose, notwithstanding any other statute of limitations providing for a longer period of time, unless otherwise forbidden by law.

 

10.5           The arbitration shall occur in Orange County, California, before a neutral, single retired or former judge of the Superior Court of the State of California or of the Court of Appeals of the State of California (“Arbitrator”).  The parties shall agree upon an Arbitrator within ten (10) days after the demand is made.  If the Parties cannot agree on an arbitrator, then any of them may apply to the Orange County Superior Court for an order appointing an Arbitrator who meets the requirements of this Section 10.5.

 

10.6           The Arbitrator shall have exclusive jurisdiction over all legal and equitable claims, issues and remedies, so all types of relief available in a judicial proceeding shall be available to the Parties in the Arbitration.  The Parties may use the Orange County Superior Court or, only if required, the Federal Court in Orange County, to enforce the Arbitrator’s rulings and awards.  Discovery, including depositions for the purpose of discovery, shall be broadly permitted, and the provisions of the California Code of Civil Procedure §1283.05 shall apply.

 

10.7           The Arbitrator shall prepare a written award, after conclusion of the arbitration, stating the essential findings and conclusions upon which the award is based, so as to permit judicial review of the award.

10.8           Company shall pay all the Arbitrator’s fees and the arbitration administrative costs (if any) as well as any other fees or costs (if any) which may be required by law in connection with enforcement of the arbitration provisions under this Article 10.

 

11.           Notices.  Any notices required or permitted to be sent under this Employment Agreement may be personally delivered, sent by overnight mail or overnight delivery service (e.g. Federal Express) or mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested.

EXHIBIT A

SEVERANCE AGREEMENT WITH MUTUAL RELEASES

This SEVERANCE AGREEMENT WITH MUTUAL RELEASES (“Severance Agreement”) is between Integrated Healthcare Holdings, Inc. (“Employer”) and Daniel J. Brothman (“Employee”). The agreed form of this Severance Agreement is attached as Exhibit A to a certain Amended and Restated Employment Agreement between Employer, as Company, and Employee, as Executive, executed on March 29, 2010 (“Employment Agreement”). This Severance Agreement shall be effective as of date it has been fully executed by both Employer and Employee.

WHEREAS, Employer’s obligation to pay the “Severance Package” (as such term is defined in the Employment Agreement) under Section 6.2, 6.3, 6.5 or 6.6 of the Employment Agreement, as applicable, subject to the limitations set forth in Section  6.7 of the Employment Agreement, is conditioned upon Employee’s execution and delivery of this Severance Agreement to Employer in a timely manner.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein and other valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1.           TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.  Employee’s employment was [or shall be] terminated on ___________________  pursuant to Section(s) ______________ of the Employment Agreement. Unless otherwise provided in a writing, executed by both Employer and Employee, Employee shall not be required to, and shall not, render any services after the termination of employment (“Termination”) and, further, shall not be authorized to represent the Employer in any capacity or for any purpose.

 

2.           SEVERANCE PAYMENT.  Employer acknowledges and affirms its obligation to pay the “Severance Package” (as such term is defined in the Employment Agreement) under Section 6.2, 6.3, 6.5 or 6.6 of the Employment Agreement, as applicable, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6.7 of the Employment Agreement, upon the execution and delivery of this Severance Agreement by Employee or “Executive’s Representative” (as defined in the Employment Agreement in the case of death or disability of Employee).

 

	
3.

	
MUTUAL RELEASES.

 

3.1           Employee releases Employer, and Employer releases Employee, from any and all known and unknown claims of any nature, including (without limitation) any claims arising from or otherwise related to Employee’s employment by Employer, including (without limitation) any employment agreement of any kind whatsoever, or any amendment thereto.

 

  

A-1

  

3.2           Employee’s release of “Employer” means Employee waives, releases and forever discharges Employer and each of its current and former affiliates, subsidiaries, parents, divisions, successors, predecessors and assigns, as well as each of their respective past and present agents, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, insurers, representatives, consultants, attorneys and employees (collectively referred to as “Employer Releasees”), and each of them, from any and all claims of any kind or nature, whether known or unknown or suspected or unsuspected, which Employee now owns or holds, or has at any time before the date he signs this Severance Agreement, owned or held against Employer and the Employer Releasees, and each of them.

 

3.3           The phrase “any and all known and unknown claims” as used in this Severance Agreement includes, but is not limited to, all claims, demands, causes of action, complaints, or actions of any kind, whether known or unknown, anticipated or unanticipated, suspected or unsuspected, past or present, contingent or fixed including which either Employee or Employer may have. “[A]ny and all known and unknown claims”, includes (but is not limited to): (a) any and all claims based on tort or contract; (b) any and all claims arising under federal, state or local law or statute, including, but not limited to any and all claims arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1975, as amended, 42 U.S.C. ss.2000e, et seq., the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. ss.12101, et seq., the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, 29 U.S.C., ss. 2601, et seq., the California Family Rights Act, Cal. Gov’t Code ss. 12945.2, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, Cal. Govt Code ss.12900, et seq., and any other federal, state or local fair employment practice or civil rights law, ordinance or executive order; and (c) any and all claims arising out of, related to or connected with the employment of Employee by Employer, the terms and conditions and/or separation of that employment, and any employment practice, policy or decision of, or omission or action taken by, the Employee or Employer, and each of them, including, but not limited to, any claims for wrongful discharge, misrepresentation, defamation, fraud, fraudulent inducement or emotional distress.

 

3.4           Employer and Employee understand that each of their releases includes all claims of every nature and kind whatsoever, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, including, without limitation, any and all claims or obligations arising from or related in any way to any initiated action of any kind. All rights under Section 1542 of the Civil Code of California, or under any other state statute or case law which is substantially similar to Section 1542 in language or effect, are hereby expressly waived. Section 1542 provides as follows:

 

“A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

Employer and Employee understand that facts different from, or in addition to, those which are now known or believed to be true with respect presently asserted or any other possible claims may be discovered at a later date, but agrees that the releases contained herein shall be and remain effective in all respects notwithstanding such different or additional facts or the discovery thereof.

3.5           Employee specifically, voluntarily, and knowingly waives any claims or causes of action he may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”) and pursuant to the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act (“OWBPA”). In this regard, Employee specifically acknowledges the following:

 

(a)           Employee is aware of his right to consult with, and specifically has been given the opportunity to and has been advised to consult with Employee’s own independent counsel regarding his rights under both of these Acts, as well as this entire Severance Agreement, prior to signing this Severance Agreement.

 

(b)           Employee has the right to, and was given, twenty-one (21) days within which to consider the provisions of this Severance Agreement if ADEA and OWBPA are applicable, although Employee may sign and return it sooner. Employee has decided to voluntarily execute the Severance Agreement now and, therefore, waives this right.

 

(c)           Employee understands he has the right to revoke this Severance Agreement for a period of seven (7) days after its execution. Accordingly, this Severance Agreement shall not become effective or enforceable until the eighth day following Employee’s execution of this Severance Agreement.

 

(d)           Employee represents he has been given the opportunity to and has, in fact, read this entire Severance Agreement, that it is in plain language, and that Employee has had all questions (if any) regarding its meaning answered to Employee’s satisfaction.

 

(e)           Employee fully understands the terms, contents and effects of this Severance Agreement and understands that it is a FULL RELEASE OF ALL KNOWN AND UNKNOWN CLAIMS (if any) against Employer and any and all Employer Releasees, including all rights under the ADEA and OWPA. The releases contained herein are not a waiver of claims that may arise after the date of this Severance Agreement;

 

(f)           Employee represents he has entered into this Severance Agreement knowingly and voluntarily in exchange for the promises contained herein and, except as stated herein, no other representations have been made to Employee to induce or influence Employee’s execution of this Severance Agreement.

 

4.           FUTURE COOPERATION. As additional consideration for the compensation and benefits described in this Severance Agreement, notwithstanding his termination, Employee agrees as follows:

 

4.1           Employee shall cooperate with the Employer and use his best efforts in responding to all reasonable requests by the Employer for assistance and advice relating to matters and procedures in which Employee was involved or which Employee managed or was responsible for while employed by Employer.

 

4.2           Employee also shall cooperate in the Employer’s defense or prosecution of any claim or other action which arises, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which Employee’s participation is required in the best judgment of the Employer by reason of his former employment with Employer. Upon Employer’s request, Employee will use his best efforts to attend hearings and trials, to assist in effectuating settlements, and to assist in the procuring of witnesses, producing evidence, and in the defense or prosecution of said claims or other actions.

 

  

A-2

  

5.           NON-DISPARAGEMENT. As additional consideration for the compensation and benefits described in this Severance Agreement, notwithstanding his termination, Employee shall not make derogatory nor disparaging statements about Employer or any other affiliate companies and their employees, officers and directors. Employee shall not induce or incite claims of discrimination, wrongful discharge, sexual or other forms of harassment, breach of contract, tortious acts, or any other claims of any type whatsoever against Employer by any other person or employee, relating to such individual’s employment or business dealings with Employer.

 

	
6.

	
CONFIDENTIALITY; RETURN OF MATERIALS.

 

6.1           During employment and after termination of his employment, Employee shall not (a) voluntarily, directly or indirectly communicate, in any manner to any legal or natural person (except as required by applicable law or in connection with the performance of his duties and responsibilities as an Employee hereunder) or (b) use or otherwise appropriate for Employee’s own or any third party’s benefit any “confidential information” (the “Confidential Information”). Confidential Information shall be defined to include (without limitation) information made available to, obtained by or developed by Employee during the course of his employment relating or pertaining to Employer’s trade secrets, financial information, technical information and/or business plans and strategies. Employee shall use his best efforts, and cooperate with the Employer, to maintain the secrecy of and limit the use of such Confidential Information.

 

6.2           All documents, memoranda, reports, notebooks, correspondence, files, lists and other records, and the like, designs, drawings, specifications, computer software and computer equipment, computer printouts, computer disks, and all photocopies or other reproductions thereof, affecting or relating to the business of Employer, which Employee shall prepare, use, construct, observe, possess or control (“Employer Materials”) shall be and remain the sole property of the Employer. Employee shall deliver promptly to the Employer all such Employer Materials and other Employer Property (e.g. tangible property, credit cards, entry cards, pagers, identification badges, cellular phones, and keys) upon termination of his employment.

 

	
7.

	
BINDING ARBITRATION.

 

7.1           Any controversy between Employer and Employee involving the construction or application of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of the Severance Agreement shall be submitted to binding arbitration if either Employer of Employee sends, via certified mail, return receipt requested, a written demand for binding arbitration to the other party. A controversy under this Section 7 shall include any claim by Employee of employment discrimination under federal or state law. Employer and Employee shall both be deemed to have waived the right to litigate the claim in any federal or state court if either party tenders a written request for arbitration of any such claim(s).

 

7.2           Prior to commencement of, and as a condition of, any arbitration, the Employer and Employee agree to first attempt to resolve any dispute before a neutral mediator in a non-binding mediation. The mediation shall take place within thirty (30) days of written notice by either party of any such dispute. The mediator shall be a California licensed attorney with at least fifteen years experience in and an emphasis in California and Federal Employment Law, or a retired or former judge of the Superior Court of the State of California or of the Court of Appeals of the State of California (“Mediator”). The Mediator shall be selected by the same process used for the selection of an Arbitrator, as described in Sub-section 7.5 below. Employer and Employee agree that mediation shall not exceed one (1) day in duration.

 

  

A-3

  

7.3           The arbitration shall comply with and be governed by the provisions of the California Arbitration Act, unless otherwise precluded by California or Federal law. The Federal Arbitration Act shall apply only if enforcement of a particular provision of the California Arbitration Act would undermine the goals and policies of the Federal Arbitration Act.

 

7.4           Any demand to arbitrate shall be deemed to have been made on the date actually received by the party upon whom it is served and, for purposes of the statute of limitations, shall have the same effect as if suit had been filed on the date the demand is made. Any demand to arbitrate any claim arising from or in connection with this Severance Agreement must be received within six (6) months after the claim first arose, notwithstanding any other statute of limitations providing for a longer period of time, unless otherwise contrary to law.

 

7.5           The arbitration shall occur in Orange County, California, before a neutral, single retired or former judge of the Superior Court of the State of California or of the Court of Appeals of the State of California (“Arbitrator”). The parties shall agree upon an Arbitrator within ten (10) days after the demand is made. If the parties cannot agree on an Arbitrator, then any of them may apply to the Orange County Superior Court for an Order appointing an Arbitrator who meets the requirements of this Sub-section 7.5.

 

7.6           The Arbitrator shall have exclusive jurisdiction over all legal and equitable claims, issues and remedies, making all types of relief available in a judicial proceeding available to Employer or Employee in the arbitration. Employer or Employee may use the Orange County Superior Court or, only if required, the Federal Court in Orange County to enforce the Arbitrators rulings and awards. Discovery, including depositions for the purpose of discovery, shall be broadly permitted, and the provisions of the California Code of Civil Procedure ss.1283.05 shall apply.

 

7.7           The Arbitrator shall prepare a written award after conclusion of the arbitration stating the essential findings and conclusions upon which the award is based, so as to permit judicial review of the award.

 

7.8           Employer shall pay all the Arbitrator’s fees and the arbitration administrative costs (if any) as well as any other fees or costs (if any) which may be required by law for the enforcement of this arbitration provision.

 

7.9           The rights and obligations of Employee and Employer set forth in this Section 7 shall survive the termination or other expiration of this Severance Agreement

AND AGREEMENT

 

This Amendment and Agreement (this “Agreement/Amendment”)
is made as of June 11, 2010 by RealD Inc., a Delaware corporation and the
successor to Real D, a California corporation (the “Company”), each of
the undersigned stockholders of the Company (collectively, the “Stockholders”)
who are parties to the Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement of the
Company dated as of December 24, 2007 (the “IRA”), and each of Drew
Skarupa, Bob Mayson, and Joseph Peixoto (collectively, the “Additional
Principals” and, collectively with the Company and the Stockholders, the “Parties”).
Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed
to them in the IRA if defined therein.

 

RECITALS

 

A.                                   The Company and
certain of its stockholders have entered into the IRA.

 

B.                                     The Company and
the Stockholders desire to amend the IRA as provided in this
Agreement/Amendment, and pursuant to Section 3.7 thereof they collectively
represent the parties to the IRA necessary to so amend the IRA.

 

C.                                     The Parties
desire to enter into this Agreement/Amendment on the terms and subject to the
conditions contained herein and to make the other agreements set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing
recitals, the mutual promises hereinafter set forth, and other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the Parties intending to be legally bound hereto hereby agree as
follows:

 

1.                                       Amendments
to IRA. The Company and the Stockholders agree that the
IRA is amended as follows:

 

1.1                                 The penultimate sentence of
Section 1.2(b) of the IRA, which currently reads:

 

“Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1.2,
if the underwriter advises the Company in writing that marketing factors
require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the
Company shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities which would
otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares of
Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be
allocated, first, among all Holders of Registrable Series C Securities and
Registrable Series D Securities in proportion (as nearly as practicable)
to the relative amount of such shares held by each such Holder, and,
thereafter, among all other Holders in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to
the relative amount of Registrable Securities of the Company requested to be
registered by each such Holder; provided, however, that the
number of shares of Registrable Series C Securities and Registrable Series D
Securities to be included in such underwriting shall not be reduced unless all
other securities (including Founders’ Shares) are first entirely excluded from
the underwriting.”

 

is replaced in its entirety with the following:

 

“Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1.2,
if the underwriter advises the Company in writing that marketing factors require
a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten in connection with a
registration pursuant to this Section

 

 

1.2, then the Company shall so advise all Holders of
Registrable Securities which would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto,
and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may be included in the
underwriting shall be allocated in the following order of priority: (a) first,
among (1) all Holders of Registrable Series C Securities and Holders
of Registrable Series D Securities and (2) each Founder holding
Founders’ Shares that are Registrable Securities for whom and to the extent
that the Threshold Event has not occurred with respect to such Founder (but
then only until the Threshold Event does occur with respect to such Founder),
in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the relative amount of such shares
then held by each such Holder and Founder, and (b) thereafter, among all
other Holders (including a Founder after the Threshold Event has occurred with
respect to such Founder) in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the
relative amount of Registrable Securities of the Company then held by each such
Holder; provided, however, that the number of shares of
Registrable Series C Securities and Registrable Series D Securities
(and, as applicable before and until the Threshold Event with respect to a
Founder, Founders’ Shares of such Founder) to be included in such underwriting
shall not be reduced unless all other securities (including Founders’ Shares of
a Founder from and after the Threshold Event with respect to such Founder) are
first entirely excluded from the underwriting; provided further
that, notwithstanding any of the foregoing, it is agreed that the allocation of
one or more Founders in any Public Offering may be partially or fully cutback
by the underwriter managing such Public Offering if such underwriter determines
that, for the success of such Public Offering, such cutback is necessary due to
such Founder’s status as an officer of the Company, in which case such
Founder’s allocation in such Public Offering shall be cutback as determined by
such underwriter (but such Founder cutback shall not reduce the allocation of
any of the Holders who are not Founders). This Section 1.2(b) shall
apply mutatis mutandis as
applicable to an underwriting pursuant to Section 1.12.”

 

1.2                                 The penultimate sentence of
Section 1.8 of the IRA, which currently reads:

 

“If the total amount of securities, including
Registrable Securities, requested by shareholders to be included in such
offering exceeds the amount of securities sold other than by the Company that the
underwriters determine in their sole discretion is compatible with the success
of the offering, then the number of shares to be included in the underwriting
shall be allocated, first, to the Company; second, among all Holders of
Registrable Series C Securities and Registrable Series D Securities
in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the relative amount of such shares
held by each such Holder; third, among the other Holders in proportion (as
nearly as practicable) to the relative amount of Registrable Securities of the
Company requested to be registered by each such Holder; and fourth, to any
other holder of registrable securities.”

 

is replaced in its entirety with the following:

 

“If the total amount of securities, including
Registrable Securities, requested by shareholders to be included in such
offering exceeds the amount of securities sold other than by the Company that
the underwriters determine in their sole discretion is compatible with the
success of the offering, then the number of shares to be included in the
underwriting shall be allocated in the following order of priority: (a) first,
to the Company; (b) second, (i) in the IPO, among all Holders
(including Founders) in

 

2

 

proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the
relative aggregate amount of Registrable Securities and Other Common Shares
that they each then hold, and (ii) in all other Public Offerings, among
(1) all Holders of Registrable Series C Securities and Holders of
Registrable Series D Securities and (2) each Founder holding
Founders’ Shares that are Registrable Securities for whom and to the extent
that the Threshold Event has not occurred with respect to such Founder (but
then only until the Threshold Event does occur with respect to such Founder),
in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the relative amount of such shares
then held by each such Holder and Founder; (c) third, among the other
Holders (including a Founder after the Threshold Event has occurred with
respect to such Founder) in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the
relative amount of Registrable Securities of the Company then held by each such
Holder; and (d) fourth, to any other holder of registrable securities; provided
that, notwithstanding any of the foregoing, it is agreed that the allocation of
one or more Founders in any Public Offering may be partially or fully cutback
by the underwriter managing such Public Offering if such underwriter determines
that, for the success of such Public Offering, such cutback is necessary due to
such Founder’s status as an officer of the Company, in which case such
Founder’s allocation in such Public Offering shall be cutback as determined by
such underwriter (but such Founder cutback shall not reduce the allocation of any
of the Holders who are not Founders).”

 

1.3                                    New definitions
are added as Sections 1.1(p), (q) and (r) of the IRA that read as
follows:

 

“(p)                      The term “Threshold Event”
means, with respect to a Founder, such time that such Founder has
sold in the IPO an amount of shares of Common Stock of the Company equaling 20%
of such Founder’s Founders’ Shares held as of May 25, 2010, but if the
Threshold Event does not occur in the IPO with respect to a Founder, then with
respect to such Founder, the Threshold Event shall after the IPO instead be
such time that such Founder has in the cumulative aggregate sold in one or more
Public Offerings after the IPO an amount of shares of Common Stock of the
Company equaling the lesser of (i) 10% of such Founder’s Founders’ Shares
held as of May 25, 2010 and (ii) the difference between 20% of such
Founder’s Founders’ Shares held as of May 25, 2010 and the number of such
Founder’s Founders’ Shares sold in the IPO, in each case as appropriately
adjusted for stock splits and similar events.

 

(q)                            The term “IPO” means
the first Public Offering.

 

(r)                               The term “Public Offering”
means an underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective
registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
covering the offer and sale of Common Stock of the Company (and, for purposes
of clarity, including any underwriter overallotment option (i.e. a “green shoe”
option) relating thereto).

 

(s)                             The term “Other Common Shares”
means shares of Common Stock of the Company held by a Holder other
than a Founder and outstanding as of May 25, 2010 that are not Registrable
Securities and shares of Common Stock of the Company issuable upon exercise of
warrants held by a Holder other than a Founder and outstanding as of May 25,
2010; for purposes of clarity, Other Common Shares shall, solely for purposes
of the IPO (but not any other Public Offering), be deemed Registrable
Securities.”

 

3

 

1.4                                 The second sentence of
Section 3.1 of the IRA that reads:

 

“Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is
intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their
respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations, or
liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided
in this Agreement (including Section 1.10, which is intended to provide
benefits to third parties and is intended to be enforceable against the Company
by such third parties).”

 

is replaced in its entirety with the following:

 

“Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is
intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their
respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations, or
liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided
in this Agreement (including Section 1.10, which is intended to provide
benefits to third parties and is intended to be enforceable against the Company
by such third parties), it being understood that the other shareholders of the
Company who are not Holders are not intended to be and shall not be deemed to
be third party beneficiaries of Section 1.8 as amended.”

 

2.                                       Additional Principals. The Parties
agree that, in connection with the IPO and each Public Offering thereafter to
the extent that and until the Threshold Event occurs with respect to an
Additional Principal (but in any case not thereafter), such Additional
Principal shall be entitled to non-assignable, non-transferable registration
rights on parity with and equivalent to those of the Founders and, for purposes
of Section 1 of the IRA (as amended above), such Additional Principal
shall be deemed a “Founder” and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of the vested options to purchase shares of Common Stock of the
Company held by such Additional Principal as of the date hereof (but not any
other shares of Common Stock now or hereafter held by such Additional
Principal, including upon exercise of options that are unvested as of the date
hereof but may vest after the date hereof) shall be deemed “Founders’ Shares”
and therefore “Registrable Securities” (pursuant to clause (ii) of the
definition thereof), and in connection therewith such Additional Principal
agrees to all of the restrictions and obligations and other terms and conditions
applicable under Section 1 of the IRA (as amended above) to a Founder or
to a holder of such Founders’ Shares or such Registrable Securities. If any
Additional Principal fails to fully comply with all such terms, conditions,
restrictions and obligations, then such Additional Principal shall not be
entitled to any such registration rights. For purposes of clarity, once a
Threshold Event has occurred in respect of an Additional Principal, such
Additional Principal shall not be entitled to any further registration rights
hereunder.

 

3.                                       “Market Standoff” Agreement. Each
Additional Principal agrees that, during the period of duration specified by
the underwriter of Common Stock or other securities of the Company following
the effective date of a registration statement relating to a Public Offering,
such Additional Principal shall not, to the extent requested in writing by the
Company and such underwriter, directly or indirectly sell, offer to sell,
contract to sell (including, without limitation, any short sale), grant any
option to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of (other than to donees
who agree to be similarly bound) any securities of the Company held by it at
any time during such period, except Common Stock included in such registration;
provided, however, that such market stand off time period
shall not exceed 180 days in connection with the IPO and shall not exceed 90
days in connection with any other such Public Offering. The obligations
described

 

4

 

in this Section shall apply only if all
officers, directors and holders of not less than one percent (1%) of the
fully-diluted capital stock of the Company enter into similar agreements.

 

4.                                       Representations
and Warranties. Each Party, severally and not jointly, represents
and warrants as to itself to the other Parties that (i) such Party has all
requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement/Amendment
and to carry out and perform its obligations hereunder, (ii) all action on
the part of such Party necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery
of this Agreement/Amendment, and the performance of all obligations of such
Party hereunder, has been taken, (iii) this Agreement/Amendment has been
duly executed and delivered by such Party, and (iv) this Agreement/Amendment is
the valid and legally binding obligation of such Party, enforceable against
such Party in accordance with its terms, except as limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other laws of general
application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and as
limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance,
injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies.

 

5.                                       Further
Assurances. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions
herein, each of the Parties hereto agrees to use its commercially reasonable
efforts to take or cause to be taken all action, to do or cause to be done, to
execute such further instruments, and to assist and cooperate with the other Parties
hereto in doing, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under
applicable law or otherwise to consummate and make effective the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement/Amendment.

 

6.                                       Miscellaneous. This
Agreement/Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and
the same instrument. A facsimile signature shall be deemed an original. This
Agreement/Amendment is the complete and exclusive statement of agreement and
understanding of the parties with respect solely to matters herein and replaces
and supersedes all prior written or oral agreements, statements,
correspondence, negotiations and understandings by and among the parties solely
with respect to the matters covered by it. All other terms, conditions, and
sections of the IRA not modified by this Agreement/Amendment are unaffected by
this Agreement/Amendment and shall remain in full force and effect. If one or
more of the provisions of this Agreement/Amendment should, for any reason, be
held to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity or
unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this
Agreement/Amendment. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement/Amendment
are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or
interpreting this Agreement/Amendment. No presumption or burden of proof or
persuasion will be implied because this Agreement/Amendment was prepared by or
at the request of any Party or its counsel, and no Party will claim or assert
otherwise. The Parties agree that any applicable law that would require
interpretation of any claimed ambiguities in this Agreement/Amendment against
the Party that drafted it has no application and is expressly waived. This
Agreement/Amendment may be amended or supplemented only in the same manner as
an amendment may be made to the IRA. This Agreement/Amendment shall be governed
by and construed under the internal laws of the State of California without
giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law of such state.
