NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, covenant and agree as follows:

 

1.                                      CONTRIBUTION AND EXCHANGE.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in exchange for the Consideration to Contributor (as described in Section 2 below), the Contributor hereby covenants and agrees to sell, transfer, convey, assign and deliver to Recipient (or such other entity as the Recipient Parties may designate, so long as such entity is owned, directly or indirectly, by one or more of the Recipient Parties and, it being acknowledged and agreed, that the Recipient shall not be released from any of Recipient’s agreements or undertakings set forth herein) at the Closing, and Recipient covenants and agrees to exchange and accept at the Closing, all right, title and interest in, to and under: (a) the Real Estate, (b) all improvements to the Real Estate, including, without limitation, all buildings, pivots, electric irrigation motors, pumps, gearheads, submersible pumps, generators, underground pipes and other related irrigation equipment, crops, all water rights, all available mineral rights (i.e., all mineral rights that the Contributor acquired when the Contributor originally acquired the Real Estate), all timber rights,

2.                                      PRICE AND CONSIDERATION.  Effective as of the Closing, the Recipient Parties shall, in exchange for the Property, cause consideration with a value equal to US$197,000,000 (the “Consideration to Contributor”) to be paid to the Contributor.  The Consideration to Contributor shall consist of the following:

 

(a)         US$50,000,000 payable in cash at Closing by wire transfer to accounts designated by the Contributor at least two (2) business days prior to the Closing;

 

(b)         An aggregate of 2,608,695 Class A common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) and shares (as adjusted in accordance with this Section 2(b), the “Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the REIT (“Common Stock”), which OP Units and Shares have a value of US$11.50 per OP Unit or Share, to be issued to the Contributor at Closing; provided that (i) subject to compliance with the requirements in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) of this Section 2(b) and Section 17 hereof, the Contributor shall be entitled to elect (by notice to the Recipient at least five business days prior to Closing) the actual number of Shares and actual number of OP Units to be issued to the Contributor at Closing (which number of Shares and number of OP Units shall collectively aggregate to 2,608,695), (ii) any Shares to be issued to the Contributor will be subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in this Agreement and in the Articles of Amendment and Restatement of the REIT (as amended from time to time, the “REIT Charter”), (iii) in no event shall the Shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Contributor at Closing (x) result in the Contributor, the direct or indirect owners of the Contributor or any other person owning (actually or constructively) more than 9.8% of the Common Stock (by value or number of shares) after giving effect to the issuance of the Shares hereunder, as determined in accordance with the REIT Charter, or (y) otherwise result in a violation of the provisions of the REIT Charter, and (iv) any OP Units to be issued to the Contributor will be subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Operating Partnership, dated as of April 16, 2014 (as amended from time to time, including pursuant to the OP Agreement Amendment, the “Partnership Agreement”); and

 

(c)          117,000 Series A Preferred Partnership Units in the Operating Partnership (“Preferred Units”), which Preferred Units have a Liquidation Preference (as defined in the OP Agreement Amendment) of US$1,000 per Preferred Unit and provide a three percent (3%) per annum distribution payable in cash, to be issued to the Contributor at Closing; provided that the Contributor acknowledges and agrees that any Preferred Units to be issued to the Contributor will be subject to terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in the Partnership Agreement.

In the event the number of Shares elected by the Contributor to be issued pursuant to Section 2(b) must be reduced as a result of the limitations set forth in clauses (ii) and (iii) of Section 2(b) or elsewhere in this Agreement, the number of OP Units to be issued pursuant to Section 2(b) correspondingly shall be increased, subject to any applicable limitations contained in this Agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that the issuance of the OP Units and the Preferred Units to the Contributor shall be evidenced by a revised partner registry in accordance with the Partnership Agreement, as amended by the amendment to the Partnership Agreement (the “OP Agreement Amendment”), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G. The parties acknowledge and agree that the OP Agreement Amendment will become effective as of the Closing.  Each party hereto shall take such additional actions and execute such additional documentation as may be required by the Partnership Agreement, or as may reasonably be requested by the other parties, in order to effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Transactions”).

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, during the Inspection Period, the total acres comprising the Real Estate are determined to be less than 22,232 or more than 22,432, then the parties agree to negotiate in good faith and mutually agree upon such amendments to this Agreement (including with respect to the Consideration to Contributor payable with respect to the Real Estate) to reflect such determination.

 

3.                                      TITLE TO PROPERTY.  Contributor shall convey good, marketable, record and insurable fee simple title to the Property to Recipient free and clear of all Liens, subject only to Permitted Title Exceptions (as defined below).  Following the Effective Date, the Contributor shall use its best efforts, at the Contributor’s sole cost and expense, to furnish to Recipient a commitment to issue an ALTA title insurance policy in the amount of the Consideration to Contributor prepared by Chicago Title Insurance Company or other reputable title company agreed upon by the parties (the “Title Company”).  Permissible exceptions to title shall include only those that are acceptable to Recipient.  Recipient shall give written notice of all title exceptions to the Contributor within ten (10) days from Recipient’s receipt of the title commitment (the “Title Objections”). In the event that any title exceptions are not acceptable to Recipient, Contributor shall have until the time set for the Closing to remove the Title Objections from the title commitment.  If Contributor is unable to cure any such Title Objection(s) relating to 5% or greater of the total acres comprising the Real Estate (which number of total acres shall be agreed by the parties during the Inspection Period), then Recipient shall have the option to terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice to the Contributor by the time set for the Closing, and the Recipient shall reimburse the Contributor for its reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses incurred from the Effective Date until the date of termination (except that such reimbursement amount of out of pocket expenses shall not exceed $500,000), in which case, no party shall have any further liability under this Agreement; provided that, in the event that less than 5% of the total acres comprising the Real Estate (which number of total acres shall be agreed by the parties during the Inspection Period) shall have an uncured Title Objection, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to exclude the applicable portion of the Real Estate with the uncured Title Objection and mutually agree upon such amendments to this Agreement (including with respect to the Consideration to Contributor payable with respect to the Real Estate) to reflect such exclusion of the portion of the Real Estate with the uncured Title Objection.  If Recipient determines to close the Transactions without removal of all Title

Objections from the title commitment prior to the Closing, then such unremoved Title Objections, collectively with any additional exceptions listed on Schedule B-2 of the title commitment and/or any other exceptions to the coverage described on the Title Commitment shall be deemed to be have been accepted by Recipient (collectively, such unremoved Title Objections and additional exceptions are hereafter referred to as the “Permitted Title Exceptions”); provided, however, that the Contributor shall (i) remove monetary Liens relating to borrowed funds or other Liens securing indebtedness of an ascertainable amount, (ii) remove all mechanic’s or materialmen’s Liens, if any, (iii) remove all judgements encumbering the Property, and (iv) pay all Liens relating to outstanding real estate taxes (and all such matters described in clauses (i) through (iv) shall not be Permitted Title Exceptions).

 

4.                                      INSPECTION PERIOD TERMINATION.  Recipient shall have the right to inspect the Property in all respects and perform its general due diligence responsibilities for a period of thirty (30) days immediately following the Effective Date (the “Inspection Period”). From the Effective Date until the date of Closing, Contributor agrees to cooperate reasonably with any such investigations, inspections or studies made by or at Recipient’s direction and to provide the Recipient and its officers, directors, employees, counsel, accountants, lenders, contractors, advisors, consultants and representatives with reasonable access, during normal business hours, upon reasonable prior notice to the Contributor, to the Properties.  If the inspection and examination of the Property and related due diligence performed by Recipient, including, but not limited to, with respect to such performance and review of title work, environmental issues, and other contractual arrangements related to the Property, is not satisfactory to Recipient, in Recipient’s sole and absolute discretion, then Recipient may, in its sole and absolute discretion, terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to the Contributor within the Inspection Period, and, in the event of such termination, the Recipient shall reimburse the Contributor for its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred from the Effective Date until the date of termination (except that such reimbursement amount of out-of-pocket expenses shall not exceed $500,000).  If Recipient fails to notify Contributor of its election to terminate this Agreement on or before the expiration of the Inspection Period, Recipient shall be deemed conclusively to have waived its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 4. Recipient agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Contributor from any damage (including crop damage) or injury to persons or property that arise from Recipient’s inspections, and Recipient agrees to repair and/or reimburse, at its sole cost and expense, any damage (including crop damage) to the Property caused by any inspection under this Section 4.

 

5.                                      RECIPIENT PARTIES GUARANTEE. The Recipient Parties each unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee any and all obligations of Recipient under this Agreement.

(a)         Contributor shall not (i) convey, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of (or agree to convey, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of) all or any portion of the Property or any rights or interests therein, (ii) enter into any lease, license, conveyance, security document, easement or other contract or agreement, or amend any lease or existing agreement granting to a third party any rights with respect to the Property or any part thereof, or any interest therein, or (iii)  mortgage, pledge, encumber or otherwise suffer to be created any Lien against all or any portion of the Property, in each case, without Recipient’s prior written consent.

 

(b)         Contributor shall (i) not cancel or permit cancellation of any hazard or liability insurance carried with respect to the Property, (ii) remedy all material violations of law relating to the Property which are not caused by the Recipient Parties and of which the Contributor has received notice and provide Recipient evidence of the cure of the same, (iii) operate the Property on a basis consistent with historical operations including, without limitation, undertaking all reasonably required ordinary maintenance and repair of the Property, and (iv) not enter into any transaction, or make any commitment, with respect to the Property, other than in the ordinary course of business.

 

(c)          Each of the parties hereto shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take all actions and do all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable (in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement) to consummate the Transactions, including, without limitation, satisfaction (but not waiver) of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 6.

 

(d)         The Contributor shall give the Recipient prompt written notice when the Contributor obtains knowledge of (i) the occurrence of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably likely to cause any representation or warranty of the Contributor to be inaccurate or breached, (ii) the breach of any obligation or covenant by the Contributor, (iii) the receipt by the Contributor of a written notice or other communication from any Governmental Entity in connection with the Property, this Agreement or the Transactions, or (iv) the receipt by the Contributor of a written notice of a Proceeding that has been commenced involving the Property.

 

13.                               DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.  In the event any party hereto shall fail to pay, perform or observe any of the covenants and conditions undertaken by it herein to be paid, performed or observed, then such party shall be deemed to be in default with respect hereto.  In the event of a default by Contributor, Recipient shall have the right, following twenty (20) days prior written notice to Contributor during which period Contributor has failed to cure such default, in addition to other remedies available at law or in equity, to:  (a) require Contributor to perform all of its obligations hereunder including specifically its obligation to convey the Property to Recipient, (b) terminate this Agreement only if Contributor refuses to cure such default within the twenty (20)-day cure period and such default is material, and (c) recover damages, including expenses incurred by Recipient, as a result of the default.  In the event of a default by Recipient, Contributor shall have the right to declare this Agreement terminated and recover all damages and expenses incurred by Contributor.

15.                               MINERAL RIGHTS, TIMBER RIGHTS, WATER RIGHTS, DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS, CONSERVATION EASEMENTS AND LEASES. This is a “Fee Simple” offer to include all of the Contributor’s rights, titles and interests in and to the improvements and modifications, additions, restorations, repairs and replacements thereof; and all rights, titles, and interests of the Contributor in and to all appurtenances, easements, rights of way, roads, subsurface and surface mineral rights to include mineral leases, timber, timber rights, water rights, development rights and leases in the Real Estate. For the avoidance of doubt, Contributor shall convey subsurface and surface mineral rights to include mineral leases that the Contributor now owns.

 

16.                               NOTICES.  All notices, demands, requests, consents, certificates and waivers from either party to the other party shall be in writing and sent by United States registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or via e-mail, addressed as follows:

17.                               REDEMPTION OF OP UNITS.  Notwithstanding anything in the Partnership Agreement to the contrary, unless the Company’s stockholders vote to approve the issuance of shares in excess of the Share Cap (as defined below) in accordance with Section 312 of the New York Stock Exchange listed company manual (“Stockholder Approval”), the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that the Contributor or any of its affiliates shall be entitled to receive upon redemption of OP Units (including any OP Units issued upon the conversion of the Preferred Units in accordance with the terms of the OP Agreement Amendment) shall be 2,394,913, which, together with the Shares to be issued at Closing, shall in no event be greater than 19.99% of the sum of the total outstanding shares of Common Stock and outstanding OP Units as of the Effective Date (the “Share Cap”).  The Contributor and the REIT agree that, in the event the Contributor seeks to redeem a number of OP Units that, together with the Shares issued at Closing, would exceed the Share Cap (such OP Units, the “Excess Units”) prior to the time that the Company has obtained Stockholder Approval, any redemption of the Excess Units by the Operating Partnership or the REIT will only be made for cash; provided, however, that, if the Operating Partnership and the REIT do not have access to cash sufficient to redeem such Excess Units upon Contributor’s request for redemption, the parties agree that the REIT shall have four months from the date the notice of redemption is received by the Operating Partnership to either (i) satisfy the Contributor’s redemption request for cash, or (ii) seek Stockholder Approval.

 

18.                               WITHHOLDING. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or elsewhere, Recipient may withhold and pay over to a Governmental Entity a portion of any payments or other consideration otherwise to be made to the Contributor, in each case as required by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or other applicable law, and (a) such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Contributor, and (b) for the sake of clarity, the Contributor shall have no claim against the Recipient Parties, or any of their affiliates, with respect to any amount so withheld and paid over.  An amount required to be withheld by the REIT or the Operating Partnership may be withheld in kind.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Governmental Entity” means any governmental agency or quasi-governmental agency, bureau, board, commission, court, department, official, political subdivision, tribunal or other instrumentality of any government, whether federal, state or local, or domestic or foreign. In the event of such withholding, Recipient shall give Contributor advance written notice, prior to withholding.

 

19.                               MISCELLANEOUS.

 

(a)         No Waiver.  No waiver of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or of any breach of any such covenant or condition shall constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach of such covenant or condition by either party, or justify or authorize the nonobservance on any other occasion of the same or any other covenant or condition hereof of either party, nor shall any forbearance by either party to seek a remedy for any breach constitute a waiver with respect to such or any subsequent breach.

 

(b)         Successors; Assignment.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the covenants, conditions and agreement contained herein shall bind and insure to the benefit of the Contributor and the Recipient and their respective heirs, personal

 

13

 

representatives, successors and assigns.  No assignment of any part of this Agreement or any right or obligation hereunder may be made by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be void and no force or effect; provided, however, that Recipient shall be entitled to assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement to an affiliate of Recipient (and to allocate the portion of the Real Estate to be acquired by each of FPI Illinois I LLC and FPI Illinois II LLC); provided further that no such assignment or delegation shall relieve Recipient of its obligations hereunder.

 

(c)          Headings and Captions.  The headings and captions in this Agreement are for convenience only and are not a part of this Agreement and do not in any way define, limit or describe or amplify the terms and provisions or the scope or intent hereof.

 

(d)         Entire Agreement.  This Agreement (including the exhibits and schedules hereto) and the other agreements to be delivered in connection with the Transactions represent the entire agreement between the parties hereto and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, negotiations, oral or written, between the parties concerning the subject matter hereof.  The exhibits and schedules referenced in this Agreement constitute an integral part of this Agreement and are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

 

(e)          Press Releases and Public Announcements.  The Contributor agrees that it shall not issue any press release or public announcement or any other disclosure concerning this Agreement or the Transactions without the prior consent of the Recipient Parties.

 

(h)         Amendment.  This Agreement shall not be amended or modified in any manner except by an instrument in writing executed by each of the parties.

 

(i)             Governing Law.  This instrument shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the general laws of the State of Illinois, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts laws.

 

(j)            Jurisdiction and Venue.  In any judicial proceeding involving any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, each of the parties unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the Circuit Court for Chicago, Illinois, or if jurisdiction over the matter is vested exclusively in federal courts, the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, and the appellate courts to which orders and judgments thereof may be appealed. In any such judicial proceeding, the parties agree (i) to consent to the assignment of any proceeding in the Circuit Court for Chicago, Illinois; and (ii) that in addition to any method for the service of process permitted or required by such courts, to the fullest extent permitted by law, service of process may be made by delivery provided pursuant to the directions in Section 16.

 

(k)         WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE CONTRIBUTOR AND THE RECIPIENT HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, INTENTIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE RELATED AGREEMENTS

 

14

 

OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR THERETO IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH. CONTRIBUTOR AND RECIPIENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE CONTRIBUTOR AND THE RECIPIENT TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.

 

(l)             No Third Party Beneficiaries.  Except as otherwise expressly stated herein, no provision of this Agreement is intended to or shall confer on any person, other than the parties hereto (and the successors and permitted assignees) any right under this Agreement.

 

(m)     Intentionally left blank.

 

(n)         Time of the Essence.  Time shall be of the essence in this Agreement. Any action required hereunder to be taken within a certain number of days shall, unless otherwise provided herein, be taken within that number of calendar days; provided, however, that if the last day for taking such action falls on a Saturday, a Sunday, or a legal holiday, the period during which such action may be taken shall be extended to the next business day.

 

(o)         Counterparts and Copies.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterpart signature pages (including via email in PDF format or other electronic counterpart signature pages), each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

 

(p)         Construction.  The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language approved by all parties to this Agreement to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any party. As used in this Agreement and required by the context, the singular and plural shall be deemed to include all genders; words importing persons shall include partnerships, corporations and other entities. Whenever in this Agreement the word “including” is used, it shall be read as if the phrase “including without limitation” were actually used in the text. Where any provision in this Agreement refers to action to be taken by any person, or which such person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether the action in question is taken directly or indirectly by such person. Except when used together with the word “either” or otherwise for the purpose of identifying mutually exclusive alternatives, the term “or” has the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or”.

 

(q)         Severability.  Each party agrees that it will perform its obligations hereunder in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations now or hereafter in effect.  If any term or provision of this Agreement shall be found to be wholly illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the remainder of this Agreement shall be given full effect as if such provision were stricken.  In the event any term or provision of this Agreement shall be held overbroad in any respect, then such term or provision shall be narrowed, modified or limited by a court only to the extent necessary to make such provision or term enforceable while effectuating the intent of the parties herein expressed.

 

15

 

(r)            Specific Performance.  The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof. It is accordingly agreed that, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 19(r), the Recipient and Contributor shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement by the other party and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. In such a case referenced in the immediately preceding sentence where the Recipient or Contributor is entitled to specific performance, Recipient and Contributor specifically agree that the remedy of specific performance is a reasonable and appropriate remedy for the Recipient and Contributor, and the Recipient and Contributor waive and agree not to assert any claim or defense that specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for Recipient and Contributor.

 

(s)           Access to Information.  Up to and following the Closing, Contributor shall provide Recipient with reasonable access to such business records specific to the Property and shall perform such reasonable actions pertaining to the Property when requested by Recipient, including but not limited to, any records or actions reasonably requested by Recipient (i) to satisfy its obligations with respect to the Farm Service Agency, (ii) to assist with filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, including any cooperation required by Recipient’s auditors and counsel in relation to and with such filings, and (iii) to fulfill any inquiry or inquiries which Recipient in its reasonable discretion deems necessary hereunder; provided, however, that the Contributor’s obligation to provide records pursuant to this Section 19(s) shall be limited to such records relating to periods up to and including the date of Closing.

 

(t)            Board Approval. This Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby is subject to the approval of the Board of Directors of the REIT. If such approval is not obtained within three (3) business days following the Effective Date, then this Agreement shall be deemed null and void, except that the Recipient shall reimburse the Contributor for its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred from the Effective Date until the date of termination (except that such reimbursement amount of out-of-pocket expenses shall not exceed $500,000).

ARTICLE II

 

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

 

2.1 Board Nomination Rights.

 

(a)  No later than thirty (30) days after the Closing, the Company shall increase the number of directors of the Board in accordance with Article III, Section 2 of the Bylaws to seven (7) directors and elect to the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) one (1) individual nominee (the “Security Holder Nominee”) designated by Gerald R. Forsythe, as the representative of the Security Holders for purposes of this Agreement (the “Security Holder Representative”), to fill the vacancy created by increasing the size of the Board; provided, however, that no such election of a Security Holder Nominee shall be required if the Board reasonably determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that such Security Holder Nominee (i) has been involved in any of the events enumerated in Items 2(d) or (e) of Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act or Item 401(f) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act, (ii) is subject to any order, decree or judgment of any governmental authority prohibiting service as a director of any public company, (iii) does not meet the applicable independence standards required by the listing rules of the New York Stock Exchange, and/or (iv) does not have the requisite skill and experience to serve as a director of a publicly-traded company (as such requisite skill and experience is assessed by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee), in which case the Security Holder Representative shall withdraw the designation of such Security Holder Nominee and shall designate another individual as a Security Holder Nominee, which replacement will also be subject to the requirements of this Section 2.1(a). The Security Holders will take all necessary action to cause any Security Holder Nominee to consent to such reference and background checks and to provide such information (including information necessary to determine such Security Holder Nominee’s independence status as well as information necessary to determine any disclosure obligations of the Company) as the Board or its Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may reasonably request in connection with the Company’s disclosure obligations or in connection with the Company’s legal, regulatory or stock exchange requirements (collectively, the “Nomination Information”), which requests shall be of the same type and scope as the Company requests of all other nominees to the Board. As of the date of this Agreement, the Security Holder Representative has designated Gerald R. Forsythe as the initial Security Holder Nominee, and the Company has determined that such Security Holder Nominee satisfies the requirements of this Section 2.1(a).

 

(b) The Company agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (including with respect to any standard of conduct required of directors under Maryland law), to include in the slate of nominees recommended by the Board (or the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board) for election at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company at which directors are to be elected to the Board (or consent in lieu of meeting) the applicable Security Holder Nominee, and to nominate, recommend and use its reasonable best efforts to solicit the vote of stockholders of the Company

 

35

 

to elect to the Board such slate of directors (which efforts shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, include the inclusion in any proxy statement prepared, used, delivered or publicly filed by the Company to solicit the vote of its stockholders in connection with any such meeting the recommendation of the Board that the stockholders of the Company vote in favor of the slate of directors, including the Security Holder Nominee). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, however, nothing shall prevent the members of the Board from acting in accordance with their respective duties under Maryland law or other applicable law or rule or requirement of the New York Stock Exchange.  The Board shall have no obligation to nominate, elect or appoint any Security Holder Nominee if (i) such nomination, election or appointment would violate applicable law or New York Stock Exchange requirements, or result in a breach by the Board of its fiduciary duties to the Company and its stockholders, (ii) the applicable Security Holder Nominee does not have the requisite skill and experience to serve as a director of a publicly-traded company (as such requisite skill and experience is assessed by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee), or (iii) the applicable Security Holder Nominee does not meet the applicable independence standards required by the listing rules of the New York Stock Exchange; provided that the foregoing shall not limit the right of the Security Holder Representative to designate an alternative individual as the Security Holder Nominee nominated for election to the Board, subject to the other terms, conditions and provisions of this Article II.

 

(c) The Security Holder Representative shall deliver to the Company a written notice identifying the Security Holder Nominee, together with all Nomination Information about such proposed Security Holder Nominee as shall be reasonably requested by the Board (or the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee thereof) no later than the earlier of (the “Nomination Deadline”) (x) fifteen (15) Business Days following the written request of the Company, and (y) the time by which such information is reasonably requested by the Board (or the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee thereof) to be delivered (which time shall be concurrent with the request for such information from and otherwise consistent with the request for such information from the other nominees). If the Security Holder Representative fails to designate the Security Holder Nominee it is entitled to designate prior to such time, then the Security Holder Nominee previously designated by the Security Holder Representative and then serving on the Board (if any) shall be the proposed Security Holder Nominee. If a Security Holder Nominee who has been designated by the Security Holder Representative and nominated for election as a director in accordance with this Section 2.1 is not so elected at any meeting of the stockholders of the Company at which directors are to be elected, then (x) such Security Holder Nominee shall not be a director for such new term, (y) any such election loss shall not be deemed to create a vacancy that the Security Holder Representative shall have the right to fill pursuant to this Agreement, and (z) neither the Company nor the Board will be obligated to increase the size of the Board or take any other action during such new term to elect such Security Holder Nominee or any designated replacement thereof to serve as an additional director during such new term; provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing clauses (x), (y) or (z) shall in any way affect the rights of the Security Holder Representative, in connection with the next meeting of the stockholders of the Company at which directors are to be elected, to designate the Security Holder Nominee to which it is entitled pursuant to Section 2.1(a) (subject to Section 2.1(f)); and

 

(d) Prior to the Nomination Termination Date, the Security Holder Representative shall have the exclusive right to designate a nominee to fill any and all vacancies created by reason of the death, resignation or removal (in accordance with the Charter) of the Security Holder Nominee and such nominee will be promptly elected to the Board by the Board to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualifies. If the Security Holder Representative fails to designate a replacement Security Holder Nominee for any such vacancy prior to the Nomination Deadline or, if later, the time by which the Company reasonably requires such information in connection with its next meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected, then such directorship shall be eliminated by the Board with effect immediately prior to such next meeting. If such directorship shall be so eliminated, the Security Holder Representative shall have the right to designate the Security Holder Nominee pursuant to Section 2.1(a) (subject to Section 2.1(f)) to fill such vacancy at the subsequent meeting of stockholders at which

 

36

 

directors are to be elected, and immediately prior to such meeting the Company shall increase the number of directors of the Board in accordance with Article III, Section 2 of the Bylaws to create the necessary number of vacancy(ies).

 

(e) The Security Holder Nominee serving on the Board shall be subject to the policies and requirements of the Company and the Board, including the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines and the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, in a manner consistent with the application of such policies and requirements to other members of the Board, and shall be entitled to the same rights, privileges and compensation applicable to all other members of the Board generally or to which all such members of the Board are entitled.

 

(f) All obligations of the Company under this Section 2.1 shall terminate (and neither the Security Holder Representative nor any other Security Holder shall have any further rights to designate a Security Holder Nominee) upon the first to occur of: (A) such time as the Security Holders Beneficially Own, in the aggregate, a number of shares of Common Stock representing less than 10% of the total number of shares of Common Stock (on a fully diluted basis, taking into account all outstanding OP Units), or (B) the delivery by the Security Holder Representative of written notice to the Company irrevocably waiving and terminating all of the Security Holders’ rights under this Section 2.1 (the date of termination of the obligations of the Company under this Section 2.1 pursuant to the foregoing clauses (A) or (B) being referred to herein as the “Nomination Termination Date”), and upon such Nomination Termination Date, the Security Holder Representative shall cause the Security Holder Nominee then serving on the Board to promptly resign from the Board.

 

(g) Except in accordance with this Section 2.1, the Board shall not seek the removal of the Security Holder Nominee without the prior written consent of the Security Holder Representative.

ARTICLE IV

 

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

 

4.1 Registration Statement.

 

(a) Subject to Section 4.6 and the other provisions of this Article IV, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file with the SEC, prior to the Effective Deadline (as defined below), a Registration Statement covering the registration of the resale at any time or from time to time of all Registrable Securities (together with any other registration required by this Article IV, the “Required Registration”). To the extent the staff of the SEC does not permit all of the Registrable Securities to be registered on a Registration Statement, the Company shall file additional Registration Statement(s) successively trying to register on each such additional Registration Statement the resale of the maximum number of remaining Registrable Securities until the earlier of (i) all of the Registrable Securities have been registered for resale with the SEC, or (ii) the date on which all of the remaining Registrable Securities may be sold without restriction or limitations pursuant to Rule 144 and without requirement to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) (or any successor thereto). The Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3, unless the Company is not then eligible to file a registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act, in which case (A) such registration statement shall be on Form S-11 or other appropriate form under the Securities Act which the Company is then eligible to file, and (B) the Company shall undertake to register the resale of the Registrable Securities on Form S-3 as soon as such form is available, provided that the Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement then in effect until such time as a Registration Statement on Form S-3 covering the resale of the Registrable Securities has been declared effective by the SEC.

 

(b) The Company agrees (subject to Section 4.6 hereof) to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable after the filing thereof but in any event prior to the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing (the “Effective Deadline”).  Subject to Section 4.6 hereof, the Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective (including the preparation and filing of any amendments and supplements necessary for that purpose) under the Securities Act for a period that will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the date on which all Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement have been sold, and (ii) the date on which all of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement may be sold without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144 and without the requirement to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) (or any successor thereto) under the Securities Act (the “Effectiveness Period”).

 

4.2 Piggyback Registration.

 

(a) Subject to Section 4.6 hereof, if, at any time while there still remain Registrable Securities, the Company is no longer eligible to use or, notwithstanding its obligations under Section 4.1(a), otherwise the Registration Statement is not effective, the Company proposes to file a new registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of Common Stock for (i) the Company’s own account (other than

 

40

 

a registration statement on Form S-4 or S-8 (or any substitute form that may be adopted by the Commission) or with respect to a Company at-the-market offering program (“ATM Program”) or Company dividend reinvestment or employee stock purchase plans), or (ii) the account of any holder of Common Stock (other than the Holders), then the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to the Holders as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event less than ten (10) Business Days before the anticipated filing date of such new registration statement). Upon a written request, given by Holders to the Company within five (5) Business Days after delivery of any such notice by the Company, to include Registrable Securities in such Registration (which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be included in such new registration statement if such registration statement is not a “pay as you go” Automatic Shelf Registration Statement), the Company shall, subject to Section 4.6 hereof, include all such requested Registrable Securities in such new registration statement on the same terms and conditions as applicable to the Company’s or such holder’s Common Stock (a “Piggyback Registration”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time after giving written notice of such proposed filing and prior to the effective date of such new registration statement, the Company or such holders shall determine for any reason not to proceed with the proposed filing of the new registration statement, then the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to the Holders and, thereupon, will be relieved of its obligation to Register any Registrable Securities in connection with such new registration statement.

 

(b) The Holders of Registrable Securities shall be permitted to withdraw all or any part of their Registrable Securities from any Piggyback Registration at any time on or before the second (2nd) Business Day prior to the planned effective date of such Piggyback Registration, except as otherwise provided in any written agreement with the Company’s underwriter(s), if any, establishing the terms and conditions under which such Holders would be obligated to sell such securities in such Piggyback Registration.

 

(c) If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten offering of Common Stock on behalf of the Company, and the managing underwriter(s) of such underwritten offering advise the Company that in its or their reasonable opinion the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be included in such registration exceeds the Underwriters’ Maximum Number, then the Company shall include in such registration (i) first, the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be offered by the Company, (ii) second, the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be included therein by all Holders who have requested registration of Registrable Securities in accordance with Section 4.2(a), pro rata on the basis of the aggregate number of Registrable Securities requested to be included by each such Holder and (iii) third, any other shares of Common Stock that have been requested to be so included by any other person.

 

(d) In any Piggyback Registration that is an underwritten offering by the Company, the Company shall have the right to select the managing underwriter(s) for such underwritten offering.

 

4.3 Registration Expenses. In connection with registrations pursuant to Section 4.1 or Section 4.2 hereof, the Company shall pay all of the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the registrations thereunder (the “Registration Expenses”), including (a) all registration and filing fees and expenses, including, without limitation, those related to filings with the SEC, (b) all fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or blue sky laws (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with blue sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities), (c) all reasonable processing, duplicating and printing expenses, including expenses of printing prospectuses reasonably requested by any Holder, (d) all of the Company’s internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties, the expense of any liability insurance and the expense of any annual audit or quarterly review), (e) all fees and expenses incurred in connection with listing the Registrable Securities for trading on a national securities exchange, (f) all fees and expenses in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement and related documents covering the Registrable Securities, (g) all fees and expenses, if any, incurred with respect to any filing with FINRA, (h) the cost of providing any CUSIP or other identification numbers for the Registrable Securities, (i) all fees and

 

41

 

expenses of any special experts retained by the Company in connection with such registration, (j) any documented out-of-pocket expenses of any underwriter(s) incurred in connection with an underwritten offering of shares of Common Stock by the Company, (k) all fees and expenses and disbursements of counsel for the Company and fees and expenses for independent certified public accountants retained by the Company and (l) all reasonable and documented fees and expenses of one (1) counsel for the Holders per registration in an amount not to exceed $10,000 per registration. Other than as provided in the foregoing sentence, the Company shall have no obligation to pay any out-of-pocket expenses of the Holders relating to the registrations effected pursuant to this Agreement, including the fees and expenses of any counsel to the Holders. Each Holder shall be responsible for the payment of any brokerage and sales commissions, underwriting discounts and commissions, additional fees and disbursements of counsel for the Holders, accountants and other advisors, and any transfer taxes relating to the sale or disposition of the Registrable Securities by such Holder pursuant to this Agreement. The obligation of the Company to bear the expenses described in this Section 4.3 shall apply irrespective of whether any sales of Registrable Securities ultimately take place.

(b) The Company will, at least ten (10) Business Days prior to filing a Registration Statement or at least five (5) Business Days prior to filing a prospectus or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or prospectus (but not including any deemed amendment or supplement by virtue of making any required filings under the Exchange Act), furnish to (i) each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement and (ii) Holders’ counsel copies of such Registration Statement and each amendment or supplement as proposed to be filed, together with any exhibits thereto, which documents will be subject to reasonable review and comment by each of the foregoing Persons within five (5) Business days after delivery, and thereafter, furnish to such Holders and Holders’ counsel a such number of copies of such Registration Statement, each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all documents filed (but not incorporated by reference) as exhibits thereto), the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and such other documents or information as such Holder and Holders’ counsel may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the plan of distribution set forth in the prospectus included in the Registration Statement; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company intends to file any prospectus, prospectus supplement or prospectus sticker that does not make any material changes in the documents already filed, then Holders’ counsel will be afforded such opportunity to review such documents prior to filing consistent with the time constraints involved in filing such document, but in any event no less than one (1) Business Day prior to such filing.

 

42

(d) On or prior to the date on which the Registration Statement is declared effective, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities under any applicable securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions and do any and all other lawful acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the Holders to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of such Registrable Securities, and use commercially reasonable efforts to keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the period which the Registration Statement is required to be kept effective; provided that the Company will not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this paragraph (d), (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (iii) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction.

 

(e) The Company will notify each Holder and Holders’ counsel promptly in writing (provided that in no event shall such notice contain any material, non-public information), (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed (but not including any deemed amendment or supplement by virtue of making any required filings under the Exchange Act) and, with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective, (ii) of any request by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or prospectus or for additional information to be included in any Registration Statement or prospectus or otherwise, (iii) of the issuance by any state securities commission or other regulatory authority of any order suspending the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities under state securities or blue sky laws or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, and (iv) of the happening of any event that requires the making of any changes in a Registration Statement or related prospectus so that they will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements in the Registration Statement and prospectus not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they were made; and, as promptly as practicable thereafter, prepare and file with the SEC and furnish a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter deliverable to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each Holder hereby agrees to keep any disclosures under subsection (iv) above confidential until such time as a supplement or amendment is filed by the Company.

 

(f) The Company, during the period when the prospectus is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, promptly will file all documents required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

 

(g) The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities registered pursuant to the terms hereof to be listed on the Exchange on which the Common Stock of the Company is then listed.

(j) If requested, the Company shall furnish to each Holder a copy of all documents filed with and all correspondence from or to the SEC in connection with the offering of Registrable Securities.

 

43

 

(k) The Company otherwise shall use its reasonable best efforts to comply in all material respects with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

(l) The Company shall make generally available to its security holders as soon as practical, but not later than ninety (90) days after the close of the period covered thereby, an earnings statement (in form complying with, and in the manner provided by, the provisions of Rule 158 under the Securities Act) covering a twelve-month period beginning not later than the first day of the Company’s fiscal quarter next following the date any Registration Statement is declared effective.

The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning a Holder is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt written notice to such Holder and allow such Holder, at the Holder’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information.

 

4.5 Holders’ Obligations. The Company may require each Holder to promptly, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after a proper request, furnish in writing to the Company such information regarding the distribution of the Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request and such other information as may be required in connection with such registration, including all such information as may be requested by the SEC. Each Holder agrees that, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.6 hereof, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 4.4(e) hereof, such Holder will forthwith discontinue the disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 4.4(e) hereof, and, if so directed by the Company, such Holder will deliver to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s possession and retained solely in accordance with record retention policies then-applicable to such Holder, of the most recent prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. In the event the Company shall give such notice, the Company shall extend the period during which such Registration Statement shall be maintained effective by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of notice pursuant to Section 4.4(f) hereof to the date when the Company shall make available to the Holders a prospectus supplemented or amended to conform with the requirements of Section 4.4(e) hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company shall, to the extent that such action is not in violation of Law, cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to a transferee of a Holder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which a Holder has entered into a contract for sale prior to the Holder’s receipt of a notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 4.4(e) and for which the Holder has not yet settled.

 

4.6 Blackout Provisions.

 

(a) The Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to postpone the filing of the Registration Statement or to suspend the use of the Registration Statement following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement (and the filings with any international, federal or state securities commissions), if a Suspension Event (as defined below) occurs. If the Company reasonably determines that it should delay the

filing of, or suspend the effectiveness and/or use of, the Registration Statement following the occurrence of a Suspension Event, the Company, by written notice, email transmission or such other means that the Company reasonably believes to be a reliable means of communication (a “Suspension Notice”), shall notify the Holders that the filing or effectiveness, as applicable, of the Registration Statement has been suspended and shall direct the Holders to suspend sales of the Registrable Securities pursuant to an effective Registration Statement until the Suspension Event has ended (provided that in no event shall such notice to any Holder contain any material, non-public information, unless such Holder requested such information or has at such time an employee designated as a director on the Board). A Suspension Event shall be deemed to have occurred if: (i) the Company is actively pursuing an underwritten primary offering of equity securities for its own account; (ii) the Company in good faith determines that (A) the offer or sale of any Registrable Securities would materially impede, delay or interfere with any proposed financing, offer or sale of securities, acquisition, corporate reorganization or other significant transaction involving the Company; (B) after the advice of counsel, sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement would require disclosure of material, non-public information not otherwise required to be disclosed under applicable law; and (C) (x) the Company has a bona fide business purposes for preserving the confidentiality of such transaction, (y) disclosure would have a material adverse effect on the Company or the Company’s ability to consummate such transaction, or (z) disclosure would render the Company unable to comply with SEC requirements, in each case under circumstances that would make it impractical or inadvisable to cause the Registration Statement (or such filings) to become effective or to promptly amend or supplement the Registration Statement on a post-effective basis, as applicable; or (iii) the Company shall have determined in good faith, after the advice of counsel, that it is required by law, rule or regulation or that it is in the best interests of the Company to supplement the Registration Statement or file a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement in order to incorporate information into the Registration Statement for the purpose of (1) including in the Registration Statement any prospectus required under Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; (2) reflecting in the prospectus included in the Registration Statement any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or of the most-recent post-effective amendment) that, individually or in the aggregate, represents a fundamental change in the information set forth therein; or (3) including in the prospectus included in the Registration Statement any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information. Upon the occurrence of any Suspension Event, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective or to promptly amend or supplement the Registration Statement or to take such action as is necessary to make resumed use of the Registration Statement compatible with the Company’s best interests, as applicable, so as to permit the Holders to resume sales of the Registrable Securities as soon as practicable. In no event shall the Company be permitted to suspend the filing or use of a Registration Statement for more than thirty (30) consecutive days or for more than ninety (90) days in any 12-month period, and the first day of any such suspension must be at least five (5) days after the last day of any prior suspension (each, an “Allowable Suspension Period”).

 

(b) If all reports required to be filed by the Company pursuant to the Exchange Act have not been filed by the required date taking into account any permissible extension, upon written notice thereof by the Company to the Holders, the rights of the Holders to offer, sell or distribute any Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement or to require the Company to take action with respect to the registration or sale of any Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement shall be suspended until the date on which the Company has filed such reports, and the Company shall notify the Holders in writing as promptly as practicable when such suspension is no longer required.

 

(c) If the Company shall take any action pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 4.6(a) with respect to any participating Holder in a period during which the Company shall be required to cause a Registration Statement to remain effective under the Securities Act and the prospectus to remain current, such period shall be extended for such Person by one (1) day beyond the end of such period for each day that, pursuant

 

45

 

to Section 4.6(a), the Company shall require such Person to refrain from disposing of Registrable Securities owned by such Person.

 

4.7 Exchange Act Reports. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to timely file with the SEC such information as the SEC may require under Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to take all action as may be required as a condition to the availability of Rule 144 under the Securities Act with respect to its Common Stock. The Company shall furnish to any holder of Registrable Securities forthwith upon request such reports and documents as a holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing a holder to sell any such Registrable Securities without registration to the extent that such reports or documents are not publicly available on the SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system or any successor system thereto. Certificates evidencing Registrable Securities (if any) shall not contain any legend at such time as a Holder has provided reasonable evidence to the Company (including any customary broker’s or selling stockholder’s letters but expressly excluding an opinion of counsel other than with respect to clauses (d) or (e) below), that (a) there has been a sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to an effective registration statement, (b) there has been a sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming the transferor is not an affiliate of the Company), (c) such Registrable Securities are then eligible for sale under Rule 144(b)(i), (d) in connection with a sale, assignment or other transfer (other than under Rule 144), upon request of the Company, such Holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel to such Holder, in a reasonably acceptable form, to the effect that such sale, assignment or transfer of the Registrable Securities may be made without registration under the applicable requirements of the Securities Act or (e) such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including controlling judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the SEC). Following such time as restrictive legends are not required to be placed on certificates evidencing Registrable Securities (if any) pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Company will, no later than three (3) Business Days following the delivery by a Holder to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a certificate evidencing Registrable Securities (if any) containing a restrictive legend and the foregoing evidence (and opinion if applicable), deliver or cause to be delivered to such Holder a certificate evidencing such Registrable Securities (if any) that is free from all restrictive and other legends or credit the balance account of such Holder’s or such Holder’s nominee with DTC (if DTC is then offered by the Company and its transfer agent) with a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock represented by the certificate (if any) so delivered by such Holder.

 

4.8 Indemnification.

 

(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees, notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement, to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each Holder and each of its managers, members, managing members, general and limited partners, officers, directors, employees and agents, and each Person, if any, who controls such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, together with the managers, members, managing members, general and limited partners, officers, directors, employees and agents of such controlling Person (each, a “Controlling Person”), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, settlement amounts (only if the Company consented in writing to the settlement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), liabilities, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses of investigating and defending any such claim (collectively, “Damages”) and any action in respect thereof to which such Holder, its managers, members, managing members, general and limited partners, officers, directors, employees and agents, and any such Controlling Persons may become subject to under the Securities Act or otherwise, but only insofar as such Damages (or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or prospectus of the Company (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or any preliminary prospectus of the Company, or arise out of, or are based upon, any omission or alleged

 

46

 

omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they were made, except insofar as the same are based upon information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder or any of its managers, members, managing members, general partners, officers, directors, employees, agents and Controlling Persons expressly for use therein, and, consistent with and subject to the foregoing, shall reimburse such Holder, its managers, members, managing members, general and limited partners, officers, directors, employees and agents, and each such Controlling Person for any documented legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by such Holder, its managers, members, managing members, general and limited partners, officers, directors, employees and agents, or any such Controlling Person in investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such Damages or proceedings. In addition to the indemnity contained herein, the Company will reimburse each Holder for its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal and other expenses (including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket cost of any investigation, preparation and travel in connection therewith) as incurred in connection therewith, as promptly as practicable after such expenses are incurred and invoiced.

 

(b) Indemnification by the Holder. The Holders agree, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers, directors, employees and agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, together with the managers, members, managing members, general and limited partners, officers, directors, employees and agents of such controlling Person, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to the Holders, but only with respect to information related to the Holders, or their plan of distribution, furnished in writing by the Holders or any of their managers, members, managing members, general partners, officers, directors, employees, agents and Controlling Persons to the Company expressly for use in any Registration Statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus. No Holder shall be required to indemnify any Person pursuant to this Section 4.8(b) for any amount in excess of the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities sold for the account of such Holder.

 

(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any Person (an “Indemnified Party”) of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 4.8(a) or Section 4.8(b), the Indemnified Party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Person against whom such indemnity may be sought (an “Indemnifying Party”), notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the claim or the commencement of such action; provided, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Party except to the extent of any actual prejudice resulting therefrom. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an Indemnified Party, and it shall notify the Indemnifying Party thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified Indemnifying Party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ one separate counsel to represent the Indemnified Party and its Controlling Persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be for the account of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of, and reimbursement of fees for, such counsel or (ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to such Indemnified Party representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interest between them, it being understood, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one such claim or action or separate but substantially similar or related claims or actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the

 

47

 

fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (together with appropriate local counsel) at any time for all Indemnified Parties. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Party is or would reasonably have been a party and indemnity would reasonably have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding. Whether or not the defense of any claim or action is assumed by the Indemnifying Party, such Indemnifying Party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its written consent.

 

(d) Contribution. To the extent any indemnification by an Indemnifying Party is prohibited or limited by law, the Indemnifying Party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under this Section 4.8 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (i) no Person involved in the sale of Registrable Securities which Person is guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) in connection with such sale shall be entitled to contribution from any Person involved in such sale of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the amount of net proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.

 

4.9 No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company shall not hereafter enter into any agreement with respect to any of its securities (including any registration or similar agreement) which is inconsistent with or violates the material rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement.

 

4.10 Lock-Up Agreements. Each of the Holders agrees that, in connection with any other public offering of Common Stock by the Company, if requested by the underwriter(s), it will enter into customary “lock-up” agreements pursuant to which it will agree not to, directly or indirectly, sell, offer to sell, grant any option for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of, any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible or exchangeable into Common Stock (subject to customary exceptions), for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days from the effective date of the Registration Statement pertaining to such Registrable Securities or from such other date as may be requested by the underwriter(s).

 

4.11 Termination of Registration Rights. The rights granted under this Article IV shall terminate on the termination of the Effectiveness Period; provided, however, that the indemnification provisions set forth in Section 4.8 shall survive such termination.

 

4.12 Assignment; Binding Effect. The rights and obligations provided in this Article IV (but no other rights under this Agreement) may be assigned in whole or in part by any Holder to any transferee of Registrable Securities (each, a “Permitted Transferee”) without the consent of the Company or any other Holder. Such assignment shall be effective upon receipt by the Company of (a) written notice from the Holder certifying that the transferee is a Permitted Transferee, stating the name and address of the Permitted Transferee and identifying the amount of Registrable Securities with respect to which the rights under this Article IV are being transferred, and (b) a written agreement from the Permitted Transferee to be bound by all of the terms of this Article IV as a “Holder.” Upon receipt of the documents referenced in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 4.12, the Permitted Transferee shall thereafter be deemed to be a “Holder” for all purposes of this Article IV. Except as set forth in this Section 4.12, the rights and obligations provided in this Article IV may not be assigned by any party hereto without the prior written consent of each of the other parties hereto.

EXHIBIT C

 

SECURITIES LAW REPRESENTATIONS

 

1.              Representations. In deciding to engage in the Transactions, including the acquisition of the Shares, the Preferred Units and the OP Units, neither the Contributor nor any equity holder thereof is relying upon any representations made to it by the Recipient Parties, or any of their respective partners, officers, employees, or agents that are not contained herein. The Contributor is aware of the risks involved in investing in the Shares, the Preferred Units and the OP Units and in the Common Stock that may be issuable at the REIT’s election upon redemption of such OP Units in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.

 

2.              No Registration. The Contributor and each equity holder thereof understands that the offer and sale of the Shares, the Preferred Units and the OP Units have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations in effect thereunder (the “Act”) or any state securities laws, and are instead being offered and sold in reliance on an exemption from such registration requirements and that the REIT’s and the Operating Partnership’s reliance on such exemption is predicated in part on the accuracy and completeness of the representations and warranties of the Contributor contained herein.

 

3.              Investment Intent. The Contributor is acquiring the Shares, the Preferred Units and the OP Units solely for its own account for the purpose of investment and not as a nominee or agent for any other person and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution of such Shares, Preferred Units and OP Units. The Contributor agrees and acknowledges that it will not, directly or indirectly, offer, transfer, sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of (each, a “Transfer”) any of the Shares, the Preferred Units or OP Units, unless (i) the Transfer is pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act and qualification or other compliance under applicable blue sky or state securities laws, or (ii) counsel for the Contributor (which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the REIT) shall have furnished the REIT and the Operating Partnership with an opinion, reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the REIT and the Operating Partnership, to the effect that no such registration is required because of the availability of an exemption from registration under the Act. The Contributor acknowledges the additional restrictions on Transfer imposed by the REIT Charter and the Partnership Agreement.

FIRPTA CERTIFICATE

 

CERTIFICATE OF NON-FOREIGN STATUS
 PURSUANT TO SECTION 1.1445-2(b)(2) OF THE TREASURY REGULATIONS

 

Pursuant to that certain Contribution Agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”), dated [·], 2015, by and among Forsythe Family Farms, Inc., Gerald R. Forsythe, Forsythe-Fournier Farms, LLC, Forsythe-Fawcett Farms, LLC, Forsythe-Bernadette Farms, LLC, Forsythe Land Company, Forsythe Family Farms, L.P., Forsythe Family Farms II, L.P., and Forsythe-Breslow Farms, LLC (collectively, the “Transferor”), on the one hand, and Farmland Partners Inc., a Maryland corporation, Farmland Partners Operating Partnership, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, and [FPI SUBSIDIARY], a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership (the “Transferee”), on the other hand, Transferor will sell and transfer to Transferee (a) approximately 22,332 acres (plus or minus 100 acres), in Edgar, Clark, Coles, Crawford, Douglas, Vermilion and Cumberland counties, all of which are in Illinois, and as are more particularly described in the Contribution Agreement, and (b) all Additional Interests with respect to such Real Estate.

Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), provides that a transferee of a “U.S. real property interest” (as that term is defined in Section 897(c)(1) of the Code and Section 1.897-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations) must withhold U.S. tax if the transferor is a foreign person.  For U.S. federal income tax purposes (including Section 1445 of the Code), the owner of a disregarded entity (which has legal title to a U.S. real property interest under local law) will be the transferor of the property and not the disregarded entity.  To inform the Transferee that withholding tax is not required upon the disposition of a U.S. real property interest by [·], the undersigned hereby certifies the following [on behalf of [·]] [on behalf of himself/herself]:

 

1.                                      [·] is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust, foreign estate or a nonresident alien individual (as those terms are defined in the Code and Treasury Regulations);

 

2.                                      [·]is not a disregarded entity as defined in Section 1.1445-2(b)(2)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations;

 

3.                                      [[·]’s U.S. employer identification number] [[·]’s social security number] is                 ; and

[·] understands that this certification may be disclosed to the Internal Revenue Service by the Transferee and that any false statement contained herein could be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both.

Under penalties of perjury I declare that I have examined this certification and to the best of my knowledge and belief it is true, correct and complete [, and I further declare that I have authority to sign this document on behalf of [·]].

DESIGNATION OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SERIES A PREFERRED 
 PARTNERSHIP UNITS

 

(1)           Designation and Number. A series of Preferred Partnership Units, designated as Series A Preferred Partnership Units, hereby is established. The number of Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall be 117,000.

 

(2)           Ranking. The Series A Preferred Partnership Units will, with respect to rights to receive distributions and upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership, rank: (a) senior to Common Partnership Units and any other Partnership Units now or hereafter issued and outstanding, the terms of which provide that such Partnership Units rank, as to rights to receive distributions and upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership, junior to such Series A Preferred Partnership Units (collectively, with the Common Partnership Units, “Junior Units”); (b) on parity with any other Partnership Units hereafter issued and outstanding, the terms of which specifically provide that such Partnership Units rank, as to rights to receive distributions and upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership, on a parity with such Series A Preferred Partnership Units (“Parity Units”); and (c) junior to all Partnership Units hereafter issued and outstanding that are properly approved pursuant to Section 8(b) hereof, the terms of which specifically provide that such Partnership Units rank, as to rights to receive distributions and upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership, senior to the Series A Preferred Partnership Units (“Senior Units”).

 

(3)           Distributions.

 

(a)           Subject to the preferential rights of the holders of any Senior Units, the holders of the then outstanding Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if authorized by the General Partner, out of funds legally available for the payment of distributions, cumulative preferential cash distributions at the rate of 3.00% per annum of the $1,000.00 per Series A Preferred Partnership Unit liquidation preference (equivalent to a fixed annual amount of $30.00 per Series A Preferred Partnership Unit) (the “Liquidation Preference”); provided the General Partner shall authorize and pay to each holder of Series A Preferred Partnership Units, out of funds legally available for the payment of distributions, an amount equal to at least the Required Tax Distribution (as defined below) of such holder for the calendar year, which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be payable on the applicable Distribution Payment Date following such year, shall be treated as a distribution of the cumulative preferential cash distributions to which such holder is entitled hereunder and shall not, in any event, exceed 3.00% of the Liquidation Preference for such year.  Such distributions shall be cumulative and accrue from (but not including) the first date on which such Series A Preferred Partnership Units are issued (the “Initial Issue Date”), and shall be payable annually in arrears on January 15 of each year, or if not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business

 

 

Day (each, a “Distribution Payment Date”); provided, however, that no interest or additional distributions or other sums shall accrue on the amount so payable from such Distribution Payment Date to such next succeeding Business Day.  Any distribution payable on the Series A Preferred Partnership Units for any partial distribution period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.  Distributions shall be paid to holders of record of Series A Preferred Partnership Units at the close of business on January 1 of the applicable year in which the applicable Distribution Payment Date occurs.  For purposes of this Section 3, the “Required Tax Distribution” for a calendar year and a holder of Series A Preferred Partnership Units means an amount equal to the excess of (i) forty-five percent (45%) of the Net Income allocated to such holder pursuant to Section 6.1.A(5) of the Partnership Agreement for such year with respect to its Series A Preferred Partnership Units (excluding Net Income allocated to such holder to charge back Net Losses previously allocated to such holder) over (ii) the amount of distributions otherwise authorized and paid by the Partnership to such holder with respect to such Series A Preferred Partnership Units for such year.

 

(b)           No distributions on the Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall be authorized by the General Partner or paid or set apart for payment by the General Partner at such time as the terms and provisions of any agreement of the Parent or the Partnership, including any agreement relating to indebtedness of the Parent or the Partnership, prohibit such authorization, payment or setting apart for payment or provide that such authorization, payment or setting apart for payment would constitute a breach thereof or a default thereunder, or if such authorization, payment or setting apart for payment shall be restricted or prohibited by law.

 

(c)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, distributions on the Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall accumulate whether or not the terms and provisions set forth in Section 3(b) hereof at any time prohibit the current payment of distributions, whether or not the Partnership has earnings, whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of such distributions and whether or not such distributions are authorized or declared.  Unpaid distributions on the Series A Preferred Partnership Units will accumulate as of the Distribution Payment Date on which they first become payable.

 

(d)           Except as set forth in Section 3(e) hereof, unless full cumulative distributions on the Series A Preferred Partnership Units have been or contemporaneously are declared and paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof is set apart for payment for all past distribution periods, no distributions (other than in Junior Units) shall be declared and paid or set apart for payment nor shall any other distribution be declared and made upon any Junior Units.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Partnership shall not be prohibited from declaring or paying or setting apart for payment any distribution on any Parity Units or Junior Units if such declaration, payment or setting apart for payment is necessary to maintain the Parent’s qualification as a REIT.

 

 

(e)           When distributions upon Series A Preferred Partnership Units and any Parity Units are not paid in full (or a sum sufficient for such full payment is not so set apart), all distributions authorized upon Series A Preferred Partnership Units and any Parity Units shall be authorized pro rata so that the amount of distributions declared per Series A Preferred Partnership Unit and such other Parity Units shall in all cases bear to each other the same ratio that accrued distributions per Series A Preferred Partnership Unit and such other Parity Units (which shall not include any accrual in respect of unpaid distributions for prior dividend periods if such Parity Units do not have a cumulative distribution) bear to each other.

 

(f)            Holders of Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall not be entitled to any distribution, whether payable in cash, property or partnership units, in excess of full cumulative distributions on the Series A Preferred Partnership Units as provided above.  Any distribution made on Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall first be credited against the earliest accrued but unpaid distribution due with respect to such units which remains payable.  No interest, or sum of money in lieu of interest, shall be payable in respect of any distribution or payments on Series A Preferred Partnership Units which may be in arrears.

 

(4)           Liquidation Preference.

 

(a)           Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership, following any required distribution with respect to any Senior Units properly approved pursuant to Section 8(b) hereof, but prior to and in preference to any distribution being made to holders of Common Partnership Units and any other Junior Units, each holder of Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Partnership legally available for distribution, a distribution pursuant to Section 13.2.A(4) of the Partnership Agreement, for each Series A Preferred Partnership Unit, in an amount equal to (i) the Liquidation Preference, plus (ii) an amount equal to all distributions accumulated and unpaid thereon to (but not including) the date of such cash distribution.

 

(b)           In the event that, upon any such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the legally available assets of the Partnership are insufficient to pay all amounts required to be paid to the holders of Series A Preferred Partnership Units and any Parity Units, then all of the assets legally available for distribution to the holders of Series A Preferred Partnership Units and any Parity Units shall be distributed among and paid to the holders of Series A Preferred Partnership Units and any Parity Units, ratably in proportion to the respective amounts that would be payable to such holders if such assets were sufficient to permit payment in full.  After payment of the full amount of liquidating distributions to which they are entitled, the holders of Series A Preferred Partnership Units will have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Partnership.

 

 

(c)           For purposes of this Section 4, the merger or consolidation, unit exchange, sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Partnership or any other similar reorganization or change of control transaction involving the Partnership shall not be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Partnership.

 

(5)           Series A Preferred Partnership Unit Holder Conversion Right.  On or after [·, 202[] [NTD: 10TH ANNIVERSARY OF INITIAL ISSUANCE] (the “Series A Preferred Unit Conversion Right Date”), each holder of Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall (without action by or approval of the General Partner, the Partnership, the holders of the Series A Preferred Partnership Units or any other Person) be entitled to convert any Series A Preferred Unit held by it (such right to convert, the “Series A Preferred Conversion Right”) into a number of Class A Units as is determined by dividing (x) the Liquidation Preference, plus all accumulated and unpaid distributions to, but not including, the applicable Series A Preferred Unit Conversion Date (as defined below), by (y) the VWAP of the Parent’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), over the twenty (20) trading days immediately preceding the Series A Preferred Unit Conversion Date.  The applicable holder of Series A Preferred Partnership Units may exercise the Series A Preferred Conversion Right pursuant to this Section 5, as described in the immediately preceding sentence, by delivering notice to the General Partner (each, a “Conversion Election Notice”), which notice shall state: (i) that such holder intends to convert its Series A Preferred Partnership Units in accordance with this Section 5; (ii) the number of Series A Preferred Partnership Units to be converted; and (iii) the place or places where the certificates (if any) evidencing the Series A Preferred Partnership Units are to be surrendered.  Following the delivery by the applicable holder of a Series A Preferred Partnership Unit of the Conversion Election Notice, each Series A Preferred Partnership Unit described in the Conversion Election Notice shall convert into the number of Class A Units into which such Series A Preferred Partnership Unit is entitled to receive pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 5  on the first Business Day immediately following the receipt of the Conversion Election Notice by the General Partner (such conversion date, the “Series A Preferred Unit Conversion Date”).  No fractional Class A Units will be issued in connection with the conversion of Series A Preferred Partnership Units into Class A Units, and the number of Class A Units to be issued upon conversion shall be rounded down to the nearest whole unit.  From and after the applicable Series A Preferred Unit Conversion Date with respect to any Series A Preferred Partnership Units, such Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall no longer be outstanding and all rights hereunder with respect to such Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall cease.  For purposes of this Section 5, “VWAP” shall mean the dollar volume-weighted average price for such security on the New York Stock Exchange or any successor thereto or any other stock market on which the Common Stock is then listed (the “Exchange”) during the period beginning at 9:30:01 a.m., New York Time (or such other time as the Exchange publicly announces is the official open of trading), and ending at 4:00:00 p.m., New York Time (or such other time as the Exchange publicly announces is the official close of trading), as reported by Bloomberg Financial L.P. through its “Volume at Price” functions, or, if the foregoing does not apply, the dollar volume-weighted average

 

 

price of such security in the over-the-counter market on the electronic bulletin board for such security during the period beginning at 9:30:01 a.m., New York Time (or such other time as such market publicly announces is the official open of trading), and ending at 4:00:00 p.m., New York Time (or such other time as such market publicly announces is the official close of trading) as reported by Bloomberg Financial L.P., or, if no dollar volume-weighted average price is reported for such security by Bloomberg Financial L.P. for such hours, the average of the highest closing bid price and the lowest closing ask price of any of the market makers for such security as reported in the OTC Link or “pink sheets” by OTC Markets Group Inc. (or any successor thereto).

 

(6)           Termination Transaction.  In the case of a Termination Transaction occurring prior to the applicable Series A Preferred Unit Conversion Date with respect to any Series A Preferred Partnership Units, then, at the effective time of such Termination Transaction, each Series A Preferred Partnership Unit shall be converted into a right to receive the kind and amount of securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of Series A Preferred Partnership Units would have received in respect of Class A Units issuable upon conversion of such Series A Preferred Partnership Units immediately prior to such Termination Transaction, as determined in accordance with Section 5 hereof (assuming that such conversion had taken place immediately prior to the consummation of the Termination Transaction) (such consideration, the “Termination Conversion Consideration”); provided, however, that, in the event that the Consent of the Outside Limited Partners is required to be obtained pursuant to Section 11.2B(i) of the Partnership Agreement with respect to any applicable Termination Transaction, then each holder of the Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall have the right to elect, in lieu of receipt of the Termination Conversion Consideration, effective immediately prior to the consummation of the Termination Transaction, that each Series A Preferred Partnership Unit held by it shall be converted into the right to receive the kind and amount of securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of Series A Preferred Partnership Units would have received in respect of the number of Shares held by such holder if, immediately prior to the consummation of the Termination Transaction, the holder had (i) received the number of Class A Units issuable upon conversion of such Series A Preferred Partnership Unit, as determined in accordance with Section 5 hereof (assuming that such conversion had taken place immediately prior to the consummation of the Termination Transaction), and (ii) redeemed the Class A Units received pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 6 into for a number of Shares issuable upon redemption of such Class A Units in accordance with Section 8.6 of the Partnership Agreement (assuming that such redemption had taken place immediately prior to the consummation of the Termination Transaction).

 

 

(7)           Redemption.

 

(a)           By the Holders.

 

(i)            Notwithstanding anything in the Partnership Agreement to the contrary, but subject to Section 6 hereof, holders of Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall not be permitted to tender their Series A Preferred Partnership Units for redemption by the Partnership in accordance with Section 8.6 the Partnership Agreement; provided, however, that any Class A Units received as a result of a conversion of Series A Preferred Partnership Units into Class A Units pursuant to Sections 5 or 6 hereof shall thereafter be subject to Section 8.6 of the Partnership Agreement to the same extent as any other Class A Unit of the Partnership then outstanding; provided further, that for the avoidance of doubt, but subject to the provisions of Section 7(a)(ii) hereof, any Class A Units received as a result of a conversion of Series A Preferred Partnership Units into Class A Units shall be eligible to be tendered for redemption by the holders thereof on or after the Series A Preferred Unit Conversion Right Date.  From and after the applicable Series A Preferred Unit Conversion Date, the Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall no longer be outstanding and all rights hereunder with respect to such Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall cease.

 

(ii)           Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Partnership Agreement to the contrary, unless the Parent’s stockholders vote to approve the issuance of shares in excess of the Share Cap (as defined below) in accordance with Section 312 of the Exchange listed company manual (“Stockholder Approval”), the maximum number of Shares that Redeemable Units Holder shall be entitled to receive upon redemption of any Class A Units held by it (including any Class A Units issued upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Partnership Units held by it) shall be 2,394,913, which, together with any Shares issued on the date of closing of the transactions under the Purchase Agreement to the Contributor thereunder, shall in no event be greater than 19.99% of the sum of the total outstanding Shares and outstanding Class A Units as of date of the Purchase Agreement (the “Share Cap”).  In the event that any Redeemable Units Holder seeks to redeem a number of OP Units that, together with any Shares issued on the date of closing of the transactions under the Purchase Agreement to the Contributor thereunder, would exceed the Share Cap (such Class A Units, the “Excess Units”) prior to the time that Parent has obtained Stockholder Approval, any redemption of the Excess Units by the Partnership or Parent will only be made for cash; provided, however, that, if the Partnership and Parent do not have access to cash sufficient to redeem such Excess Units upon the Redeemable Units Holder’s request for redemption, the Parent shall have 4 months from the date the notice of redemption is received by the Partnership to either (x) satisfy such Redeemable Units Holder’s redemption request for cash, or (y) seek Stockholder Approval.  For purposes of this Section 7(a)(ii), “Redeemable Units Holder” means (A) each holder of Series A Preferred Partnership Units, (B) each affiliate of such person described in clause (A) of this definition, and (C) each other person that, following any transfer (in accordance with Article XI of the Partnership Agreement) by a person described in clause (A) of this definition or any subsequent transferee, holds (1) Series A Preferred Partnership Units, or (2) Class A Units received following conversion of any Series A Preferred Partnership Units.

 

 

(b)           By the Partnership.  On and after [       , 202 ] [NTD: FIVE-YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF CLOSING], prior to the Series A Preferred Unit Conversion Right Date, the Partnership shall have the right, at its option, at any time or from time to time, upon not less than 30 days’ written notice, to redeem the Series A Preferred Partnership Units, in whole or in part, for cash in an amount per unit equal to the Liquidation Preference, plus all distributions accumulated and unpaid thereon to, but not including, the date of redemption (the “Redemption Price”).

 

(c)           Procedures for Redemption by Partnership.  The Partnership may exercise its option pursuant to Section 7(b) hereof by delivering notice of such exercise to each holder of Series A Preferred Partnership Units in accordance with Section 15.1 of the Partnership Agreement, which notice shall state: (i) the date of redemption, which shall be a Business Day that is no earlier than thirty (30) days and no later than sixty (60) days from the date such notice is sent; (ii) the Redemption Price; (iii) the number of Series A Preferred Partnership Units to be redeemed and, if fewer than all of the Series A Preferred Partnership Units held by such holder are to be redeemed, the number or percentage of such Series A Preferred Partnership Units to be redeemed from such holder; (iv) the place or places where the certificates (if any) evidencing the Series A Preferred Partnership Units are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and any other documents required in connection with the redemption; and (v) that the distributions on such Series A Preferred Partnership Units to be redeemed will cease to accrue on the date of redemption except as otherwise provided herein.  A failure to give such notice or any defect in the notice or in its mailing shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Series A Preferred Partnership Units except as to the holder to whom notice was defective or not given.  If fewer than all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Partnership Units are to be redeemed, the units to be redeemed shall be selected by lot or pro rata (as nearly as practicable without creating fractional units).  From and after the date of redemption, any Series A Preferred Partnership Units redeemed pursuant to this Section shall no longer be outstanding and all rights hereunder with respect to such Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall cease.

 

(8)           Voting Rights.

 

(a)           Notwithstanding any other provision of the Partnership Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 11.2 and Article XIV thereof, the holders of Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall have no voting rights, except as required by applicable law and as set forth in Section 8(b) hereof.

 

(b)           So long as Series A Preferred Partnership Units remain outstanding, neither the General Partner nor the Limited Partners may, without the vote or consent of the Limited Partners holding more than fifty percent (50%) of all Series A Preferred Partnership Units then outstanding: (i) issue any Senior Units; (ii) issue any additional Series A Preferred Partnership Units; or (iii) amend the Partnership Agreement (including this Exhibit H) in any manner that materially and adversely affects the rights or benefits of

 

 

Series A Preferred Partnership Units, except for any amendment that affects all holders of Class A Units and does not disproportionately and adversely affect holders of Series A Preferred Partnership Units; provided, however, that the creation or issuance of Parity Units or Junior Units and any increase in the amount of authorized Parity Units (other than any issuance of additional Series A Preferred Partnership Units) or Junior Units shall not require the vote or consent of the holders of Series A Preferred Partnership Units and shall not be deemed to adversely affect the rights or benefits of Series A Preferred Partnership Units.

 

(9)           Allocations for Capital Account Purposes.  The Partnership’s Net Income, Net Loss and items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit shall be allocated to the holders of Series A Preferred Partnership Units in accordance with the Partnership Agreement, including Article VI of the Partnership Agreement; it being understood and agreed that in effecting the allocation provisions of the Partnership Agreement, the Series A Preferred Partnership Units shall be deemed to constitute Partnership Interests that are entitled to a preference upon liquidation and a preference in distribution for purposes of Section 6.1.A(4) and Section 6.1.A(5) of the Partnership Agreement, respectively.  Accordingly, until additional classes of Partnership Interests, if any, are established pursuant to the terms of the Partnership Agreement:

 

(a)           pursuant to Section 6.1.A(4) of the Partnership Agreement, Net Income shall be allocated to each holder of Series A Preferred Partnership Units, until the cumulative Net Income allocated under Section 6.1.A(4) of the Partnership Agreement to such holder equals the cumulative Net Losses allocated to such holder under Section 6.1.B(3) of the Partnership Agreement with respect to its Series A Preferred Partnership Units, pro rata in proportion to the amounts to be allocated pursuant to Section 6.1.A(4) of the Partnership Agreement;

 

(b)           pursuant to Section 6.1.A(5) of the Partnership Agreement, Net Income shall be allocated to each holder of Series A Preferred Partnership Units,  until the cumulative allocations made under Section 6.1.A(5) of the Partnership Agreement to such holder equals the cumulative amount of distributions payable (whether or not authorized or paid) pursuant to Section 3 with respect to such holder’s Series A Preferred Partnership Units, pro rata in proportion to the amounts to be allocated pursuant to Section 6.1.A(5) of the Partnership Agreement;

 

(c)           pursuant to Section 6.1.A(6) of the Partnership Agreement, no Net Income shall be allocated to the holders of Series A Preferred Partnership Units; and

 

(d)           pursuant to Section 6.1.B(3) of the Partnership Agreement, Net Losses shall be allocated to the holders of Series A Preferred Partnership Units, pro rata in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests as of the last day of the period for which such allocation is being made; provided, however, that Net Losses shall not be allocated to

 

 

any such holders pursuant to Section 6.1.B(3) of the Partnership Agreement to the extent that such allocation would cause such holder to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit (or increase any existing Adjusted Capital Account Deficit) (determined in each case by not including in the holder’s Adjusted Capital Accounts any amount that the holder is obligated to contribute to the Partnership with respect to any deficit in its Capital Account pursuant to Section 13.3 of the Partnership Agreement) at the end of such taxable year (or portion thereof).

 

Notwithstanding any provision in the Partnership Agreement to the contrary, in allocating Net Income pursuant to Section 6.1 of the Partnership Agreement and taxable income and gain pursuant to Section 2 of Exhibit C of the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner shall be entitled, in its discretion, to make such allocations in such a manner so as to cause, to the greatest extent possible, allocations of Net Income (and items thereof) to the holders of Series A Preferred Partnership Units pursuant to Section 6.1.B(5) to be matched with allocations, for income tax purposes, of taxable ordinary income of the Partnership.

AMENDED AND RESTATED 2014 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT
Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the Amended and Restated 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) shall have the same defined meanings in this Restricted Stock Agreement (this “Agreement”).
I.NOTICE OF GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK
Name:    
Address:

The undersigned Participant has been granted a Restricted Stock Award, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, as follows:
	
		
	Date of Grant:
	 

	 
	 

	Vesting Commencement Date:
	 

	 
	 

	Total Number of Shares of:
	 

	Restricted Stock:
	 

Vesting Schedule:
[Subject to any accelerated vesting provisions in the Plan, twenty-five percent (25%) of the Shares of Restricted Stock shall vest on each of the one (1) year, two (2) year, three (3) year and four (4) year anniversaries of the Vesting Commencement Date, subject to Participant continuing to be a Service Provider through each such date.]
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Change in Control, and subject to Participant continuing to be a Service Provider through the date of such Change in Control, the Participant will fully vest in all of the Shares of Restricted Stock granted under this Agreement.  
Any of the Shares of Restricted Stock granted under this Agreement which have not yet vested as of a given time are referred to herein as “Unvested Shares of Restricted Stock.”  The Shares which have vested shall be delivered to Participant in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (see Section 2 of Part II of this Agreement).
II.    AGREEMENT
1.    Grant of Restricted Stock.  The Company hereby grants to the person named in the Notice of Grant of Restricted Stock in Part I of this Agreement (“Participant”) under the Plan for 

services performed and to be performed by Participant for the Company and as a separate incentive in connection with his or her services and not in lieu of any salary or other compensation for his or her services, the number of Shares set forth in the Notice of Grant of Restricted Stock, subject to all of the terms and conditions in this Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference.  Subject to Section 20(c) of the Plan, in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail.
2.    Book-Entry Registration of the Shares; Delivery of Shares.  
(a)    The Company may at its election either (i) after the Date of Grant, issue a certificate representing the Shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement and place a legend on and stop transfer notice describing the restrictions on and forfeitability of such Shares of Restricted Stock, in which case the Company may retain such certificates unless and until the Shares of Restricted Stock represented by such certificate have vested and may cancel such certificate if and to the extent that any Unvested Shares of Restricted Stock are forfeited or otherwise required to be transferred back to the Company, or (ii) not issue any certificate representing Shares of Restricted Stock subject to this Agreement and instead document Participant’s interest in Shares of Restricted Stock by registering the Shares of Restricted Stock with the Company’s transfer agent (or another custodian selected by the Company) in book entry form in Participant’s name with the applicable restrictions noted in the book-entry system, in which case no certificate(s) representing all or a part of the Shares will be issued unless and until the Shares become vested pursuant to the Vesting Schedule set forth in Part I of this Agreement.  
(b)    If and when a Vesting Date occurs with respect to Unvested Shares of Restricted Stock or any Unvested Shares of Restricted Stock otherwise become vested in accordance with the Vesting Schedule or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, provided the Unvested Shares of Restricted Stock have not been forfeited pursuant to Section 8, the Company or the Administrator will take all steps necessary to accomplish the transfer of vested Shares to Participant.  The Company will determine the form of delivery (e.g., electronic entry evidencing such shares) and may deliver such Shares on Participant’s behalf electronically to the Company’s designated stock plan administrator or such other broker-dealer as the Company may choose at its sole discretion, within reason.  The Company may provide a reasonable delay in the issuance or delivery of vested Shares as it determines appropriate to address tax withholding (to the extent applicable) and other administrative matters.
3.    Lock-Up Period.  Participant hereby agrees that Participant shall not offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company or enter into any swap, hedging or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company held by Participant (other than those included in the registration) for a period specified by the representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company not to exceed one hundred and eighty (180) days following the effective date of any registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (or such other period as may be requested by the Company or the underwriters to accommodate regulatory restrictions on (i) the publication or other distribution of research reports and (ii) analyst recommendations and opinions, including, but not limited to, the restrictions contained in NASD Rule 2711(f)(4) or NYSE Rule 472(f)(4), or any successor provisions or amendments thereto).

2

Participant agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the underwriters which are consistent with the foregoing or which are necessary to give further effect thereto.  In addition, if requested by the Company or the representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company, Participant shall provide, within ten (10) days of such request, such information as may be required by the Company or such representative in connection with the completion of any public offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  The obligations described in this Section 3 shall not apply to a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-1 or Form S-8 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future, or a registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future.  The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the shares of Common Stock (or other securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of said one hundred and eighty (180) day (or other) period.  Participant agrees that any transferee of the Restricted Stock Award or Shares acquired pursuant to the Restricted Stock Award shall be bound by this Section 3.
4.    Non-Transferability of Restricted Stock.  This Restricted Stock Award may not be transferred in any manner otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution.  The terms of the Plan and this Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of Participant.
5.    Tax Consequences.  Participant has reviewed with Participant’s own tax advisors the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  Participant is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents.  Participant understands that Participant (and not the Company) shall be responsible for Participant’s own tax liability that may arise as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  Participant understands that Section 83 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), taxes as ordinary income the difference between the purchase price, if any, for the Shares and the Fair Market Value of the Shares as of each vesting date.  Participant understands that Participant may elect to be taxed at the time the Shares are granted rather than when such Shares vest by filing an election under Section 83(b) of the Code (an “83(b) Election”) with the IRS within thirty (30) days from the date of grant of the Restricted Stock Award.  The form for making this election is attached as Exhibit A hereto.
PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS PARTICIPANT’S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY AND NOT THE COMPANY’S TO FILE TIMELY THE 83(b) ELECTION, EVEN IF PARTICIPANT REQUESTS THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES TO MAKE THIS FILING ON PARTICIPANT’S BEHALF.
6.    Tax Withholding.  Pursuant to such procedures as the Administrator may specify from time to time, the Company shall withhold the minimum amount required to be withheld for the payment of income, employment and other taxes which the Company determines must be withheld (the “Withholding Taxes”) with respect to the filing of an 83(b) Election, or, if an 83(b) Election is not filed or not timely filed, upon each vesting date, by, in the Administrator’s discretion: (i) withholding otherwise deliverable Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such Withholding Taxes, (ii) withholding the amount of such Withholding Taxes from Participant’s paycheck(s), (iii) requiring Participant to make appropriate arrangements with the Company (or the Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining Participant) for the satisfaction of all Withholding Taxes, or (iv) a 

3

combination of the foregoing.  The Company shall not retain fractional Shares to satisfy any portion of the Withholding Taxes.  Accordingly, if any withholding is done through the withholding of Shares, Participant shall pay to the Company an amount in cash sufficient to satisfy the remaining Withholding Taxes due and payable as a result of the Company not retaining fractional Shares.  Should the Company be unable to procure such cash amounts from Participant, Participant agrees and acknowledges that Participant is giving the Company permission to withhold from Participant’s paycheck(s) an amount equal to the remaining Withholding Taxes due and payable as a result of the Company not retaining fractional Shares.  Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company may refuse to honor the exercise and refuse to deliver the Shares if such withholding amounts are not delivered at the time they are due.
7.    No Guarantee of Continued Service.  PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF THE SHARES OF RESTRICTED STOCK PURSUANT TO THE VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT THE WILL OF THE COMPANY (OR THE PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY EMPLOYING OR RETAINING PARTICIPANT) AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED THIS RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD OR ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER.  PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND SHALL NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH PARTICIPANT’S RIGHT OR THE RIGHT OF THE COMPANY (OR THE PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY EMPLOYING OR RETAINING PARTICIPANT) TO TERMINATE PARTICIPANT’S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE.
8.    Forfeiture Upon Termination as a Service Provider.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement or the Notice of Grant of Restricted Stock, if Participant terminates service as a Service Provider for any or no reason prior to vesting, the then Unvested Shares of Restricted Stock awarded by this Agreement will thereupon be forfeited and automatically transferred to and reacquired by the Company at no cost to the Company upon the date of such termination and Participant will have no further rights thereunder.  
9.    Restriction on Transfer.  Except for any transfer of the Shares to the Company or its assignees contemplated by this Agreement, none of the Shares or any beneficial interest therein shall be transferred, encumbered or otherwise disposed of in any way until such Shares shall have vested in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.  Any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under this Agreement shall, if Participant is then deceased, be made to Participant’s designated beneficiary, or if no beneficiary survives Participant, to the administrator or executor of Participant’s estate.  Any such transferee must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.
10.    Right as a Stockholder.  Subject to the terms hereof, Participant shall have all the rights of a shareholder with respect to such Shares that have not been forfeited during the Period of Restriction, including without limitation, the right to vote the Shares and receive any cash dividends declared thereon.

11.    Adjustments upon Certain Corporate Events.  In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, separation, liquidation, stock dividend, split-up, share combination, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Common Stock, the Shares shall be increased, reduced or otherwise changed, and by virtue of any such change Participant shall in his or her capacity as owner of the Unvested Shares of Restricted Stock that have been awarded to him or her be entitled to new or additional or different shares of stock, cash or securities (other than rights or warrants to purchase securities); such new or additional or different shares, cash or securities shall thereupon be considered to be “Unvested Shares of Restricted Stock” and shall be subject to all of the conditions and restrictions which were applicable to the Unvested Shares of Restricted Stock pursuant to this Agreement.  If Participant receives rights or warrants with respect to any Unvested Shares of Restricted Stock, such rights or warrants may be held or exercised by Participant, provided that until such exercise any such rights or warrants and after such exercise any shares or other securities acquired by the exercise of such rights or warrants shall be considered to be Unvested Shares of Restricted Stock and shall be subject to all of the conditions and restrictions which were applicable to the Unvested Shares of Restricted Stock pursuant to this Agreement.  The Administrator in its absolute discretion at any time may accelerate the vesting of all or any portion of such new or additional shares of stock, cash or securities, rights or warrants to purchase securities or shares or other securities acquired by the exercise of such rights or warrants.  
12.    Address for Notices.  Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of this Agreement will be addressed to the Company at 1 Penumbra Place, 1351 Harbor Bay Parkway, Alameda, CA 94502, or at such other address as the Company may hereafter designate in writing.
13.    Electronic Delivery.  The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to the Shares of Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan or future Restricted Stock that may be awarded under the Plan by electronic means or request Participant’s consent to participate in the Plan by electronic means.  Participant hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through any on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company.
14.    No Waiver.  Either party’s failure to enforce any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be construed as a waiver of any such provision or provisions, nor prevent that party from thereafter enforcing each and every other provision of this Agreement.  The rights granted both parties herein are cumulative and shall not constitute a waiver of either party’s right to assert all other legal remedies available to it under the circumstances.
15.    Successors and Assigns.  The Company may assign any of its rights under this Agreement to single or multiple assignees, and this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company.  Subject to the restrictions on transfer herein set forth, this Agreement shall be binding upon Participant and his or her heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.  The rights and obligations of Participant under this Agreement may only be assigned with the prior written consent of the Company.
16.    Interpretation.  The Administrator will have the power to interpret the Plan and this Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules (including, but not limited to, the determination of whether or not any Shares of Restricted Stock have vested).  All actions taken and all 

5

interpretations and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith will be final and binding upon Participant, the Company and all other interested persons.  Neither the Administrator nor any person acting on behalf of the Administrator will be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or this Agreement.
17.    Additional Documents.  Participant agrees upon request to execute any further documents or instruments necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes or intent of this Agreement.
18.    Governing Law; Severability.  This Agreement is governed by the internal substantive laws, but not the choice of law rules, of California.  In the event that any provision hereof becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
19.    Entire Agreement.  The Plan is incorporated herein by reference.  The Plan and this Agreement (including the exhibits referenced herein) constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and Participant with respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified adversely to the Participant’s interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and Participant.
