ROUNDY’S ACQUISITION CORP.

RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

 

THIS RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of December 5, 2002, by and between Roundy’s Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Ralph W. Drayer (“Purchaser”). Certain definitions are set forth in Section 10 of this Agreement.

 

Purchaser desires to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), and the Company desires to issue such Common Stock on the terms and conditions set forth herein. The Company and Purchaser desire to enter into this Agreement to, among other things, (i) set forth the terms of Purchaser’s purchase of the Common Stock and (ii) provide the Company with certain rights in respect of the Common Stock.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

A.                                    PURCHASE AND SALE OF COMMON STOCK

 

1.                                       On the date hereof, Purchaser shall purchase from the Company, and the Company shall issue to Purchaser, 150.00 shares (the “Shares”) of Common Stock at a price of $100.00 per share, which shares shall be subject to vesting as provided herein, for an aggregate purchase price of $15,000.00. On the date, hereof, the Company shall deliver to Purchaser stock certificates representing the Shares, and Purchaser shall deliver to the Company the aggregate purchase price for the Shares in the manner provided in Section 2.

 

2.                                       On the date hereof, Purchaser shall deliver to the Company (i) a duly executed promissory note in the form of Annex A attached hereto in the initial principal amount of $15,000.00 (the “Purchaser Note”) and (ii) a counterpart signature page to the Investor Rights Agreement. Purchaser’s obligations under the Purchaser Note shall be secured by a pledge to the Company of all of the Shares, and in connection therewith, Purchaser shall execute and deliver to the Company a pledge agreement in the form of Annex B attached hereto.

 

3.                                       The Company shall hold each stock certificate representing the Shares until such time as the Shares represented by such certificate are released from the pledge to the Company.

 

4.                                       Within thirty (30) days after Purchaser purchases the Shares from the Company hereunder, Purchaser shall make an effective election with the Internal Revenue Service under Section 83(b) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder in the form of Annex C attached hereto.

 

5.                                       In connection with the purchase and sale of the Common Stock hereunder, Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company that:

 

(a)                             The Common Stock to be acquired by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement shall be acquired for Purchaser’s own account and not with a view to, or intention of, distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act, or any applicable state securities laws, and

 

 

such Common Stock shall not be disposed of in contravention of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws.

 

(b)                            Purchaser is, as of the date hereof, a member of the board of directors (a “Board Member”) of Roundy’s, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Roundy’s”), is sophisticated in financial matters and is able to evaluate the risks and benefits of the investment in the Common Stock. Purchaser is an “accredited investor,” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

 

(c)                             Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of Purchaser’s investment in the Common Stock for an indefinite period of time, and Purchaser understands that the Common Stock has not been registered under the Securities Act and, therefore, cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available.

 

(d)                            Purchaser has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Common Stock and has had full access to such other information concerning the Company as Purchaser has requested. Purchaser has reviewed, or has had an opportunity to review, a copy of the Investor Rights Agreement.

 

(e)                             Each of this Agreement and the Other agreements contemplated hereby to which Purchaser is or will become a party constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with its terms, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and such other agreements by Purchaser does not and shall not conflict with, violate or cause a breach of any agreement, contract or instrument to which Purchaser is a party or any judgment, order or decree to which Purchaser is subject.

 

(f)                               Purchaser has consulted with independent legal counsel regarding his rights and obligations under this Agreement and fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein. Purchaser has obtained advice from persons other than the Company and its counsel regarding the tax effects of the transaction contemplated hereby.

 

6.                                       In connection with the purchase and sale of the Common Stock hereunder, the Company represents and warrants to Purchaser that:

 

(a)                             Each of this Agreement and the other agreements contemplated hereby to which the Company is or will become a party constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and such other agreements by the Company does not and shall not conflict with, violate or cause a breach of any agreement, contract or instrument to which the Company is a party or any judgment, order or decree to which the Company is subject.

 

(b)                            As of the date hereof, without taking into account the issuance of the Common Stock to Purchaser hereunder, the authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 200,000 shares of Common Stock, of which 94,350.00 shares are issued and outstanding, and 20,000 shares of Preferred Stock of which 10,483.33 shares are issued and outstanding. As of the date hereof, all of the shares of Common Stock are (so long as Purchaser shall have paid the

 

2

 

purchase price in respect of the Common Stock to be issued to him hereunder) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Except as set forth in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has any outstanding stock or securities convertible or exchangeable for any shares of its capital stock or containing any profit participation features, nor does it have outstanding any rights or options to subscribe for or to purchase its capital stock or any stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for its capital stock or any stock appreciation rights or phantom stock plans.

 

7.                                       As an inducement to the Company to issue the Common Stock to Purchaser, and as a condition thereto, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that neither the issuance of the Common Stock to Purchaser nor any provision contained herein shall entitle Purchaser to remain a Board Member or affect the right of any of the Company’s shareholders to remove Purchaser from the Company’s board of directors at any time for any reason.

 

B.                                    VESTING AND REPURCHASE PROVISIONS

 

8.                                       Vesting of Common Stock: Vested Shares. The Company and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that the Shares purchased by Purchaser hereunder shall be subject to vesting as hereinafter provided. “Vested Shares” means all Shares which have become vested pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. All Shares which have not become vested are referred to herein as “Unvested Shares.”

 

The Shares shall vest in accordance with the following schedule, if as of each such date Purchaser is, and has been continuously, a Board Member:

If Purchaser ceases to be a Board Member on any date other than the vesting dates specified above, the cumulative percentage of Shares vested shall be a percentage equal to the cumulative percentage of Shares vested through the date of the vesting date specified above immediately preceding the date on which Purchaser ceases to be a Board Member. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Unvested Shares shall vest automatically upon the consummation of a Sale of the Company (assuming Purchaser is then, and has been continuously, a Board Member).

 

9.                                       Repurchase Option.

 

(a)                                    Repurchase Option. In the event that Purchaser, for any reason, ceases to be a Board Member (any such date, referred to herein as the “Removal Date”), the Purchaser Shares, whether held by Purchaser or one or more of Purchaser’s Permitted Transferees, shall be subject to repurchase by the Company and the Investors, if the Company or the Investors so elect at their sole discretion, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 9 (the “Repurchase Option”).

 

(b)                                      Repurchase Price. The purchase price for each Unvested Share shall be the lesser of Executive’s Original Cost and Fair Market Value for such share (with shares having the lowest cost subject to repurchase prior to shares with a higher cost), and the purchase price for each Vested Share shall be the Fair Market Value for such share as of the Removal Date.

 

(c)                                       Repurchase Procedures. After the removal of Purchaser as a Board Member for any reason, the Company may elect to exercise the right to purchase the Purchaser Shares (for the price set forth in Sections 9(b) above) by delivering a written notice (the “Repurchase Notice”) to Purchaser and/or any other holder or holders of Purchaser Shares and the Investors at any time prior to the end of the three (3) month period commencing on the Removal Date. The Repurchase Notice shall set forth the number of shares of each class and type of such stock to be acquired from such holder(s), the aggregate consideration to be paid for such shares of such stock and the time and place for the closing of the transaction. The number of shares to be repurchased by the Company shall first be satisfied to the extent possible from the Purchaser Shares held by Purchaser at the time of delivery of the Repurchase Notice. If the number of Purchaser Shares then held by Purchaser is less than the total number of Purchaser Shares the Company has elected to purchase, the Company shall purchase the remaining shares elected to be purchased from the other holder(s) of Purchaser Shares, pro rata according to the number of Purchaser Shares held by such other holder(s) at the time of delivery of such Repurchase Notice (determined as close as practicable to the nearest whole shares). The Company shall have the right to purchase all or any portion of the Unvested Purchaser Shares without or before purchasing any Vested Purchaser Shares.

(d)                                      Rights of the Investors.

 

(i)                           If for any reason, the Company does not elect to purchase all of the Purchaser Shares available for purchase pursuant to the Repurchase Option, the Investors shall be entitled to exercise the Repurchase Option, in the manner set forth in this Section 9, for all or any portion of the Purchaser Shares which the Company has not elected to purchase (the “Available Shares”). As soon as practicable after the Company determines that there will be Available Shares, but in any event upon the earlier to occur of (A) the delivery of the Repurchase Notice, and (B) three (3) months after the Removal Date, the Company shall deliver a written notice (the “Availability Notice”) to the Investors, setting forth the number of each class and type of Available Shares and the purchase price for each Available Share.

 

(ii)                        The Investors may elect to purchase all or any portion of the Available Shares by delivering a written notice (an “Election Notice”) to the Company within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Availability Notice from the Company (such 30-day period being referred to herein as the “Investor Election Period”); provided that if more than one Investor elects to purchase any or all Available Shares of any type or class and the number of Available Shares of such type or class is less than the aggregate number of Available Shares of such type or class elected to be purchased by such electing Investors, each Investor shall be entitled to purchase the lesser of (A) the number of shares of such type or class such Investor has elected to purchase as indicated in the Election Notice and (B) the number of shares of such type or class obtained by multiplying the number of shares specified in the Availability Notice by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock (on a fully-diluted basis) held by such Investor and the determinator of which is the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock (on a fully-diluted basis) held by all electing Investors. If any Available Shares of such type or class remain after giving effect to such allocation, such allocation shall be repeated until either all of the Available Shares of such type or class requested to be purchased by the electing Investors have been so allocated or no Available Shares of such type or class are available for purchase.

 

(e)                                       Supplemental Repurchase Notice. As soon as practicable, and in any event within ten (10) days after the expiration of the Investor Election Period, the Company shall, if necessary, notify Purchaser and, as applicable, each holder of Purchaser Shares as to the number of shares being purchased from such holder by the Investors (the “Supplemental Repurchase Notice”). At the time the Company delivers the Supplemental Repurchase Notice to Purchaser and/or the holder(s) of Purchaser Shares, the Company shall also deliver to the Investors written notice setting forth the number of Purchaser Shares the Company and the Investors shall acquire, the aggregate purchase price to be paid and the time and place of the closing of the transaction.

 

(f)                                         Closing. The closing of the purchase of the Purchaser Shares pursuant to this Section 9 shall take place on the date designated by the Company in the Repurchase Notice or the Supplemental Repurchase Notice, as the case may be, which date shall not be more than thirty (30) days after the delivery of the later of such notices, as the case may be. The Company and/or the Investors, as the case may be, may pay the purchase price for the Purchaser Shares to be purchased pursuant to the Repurchase Option by delivery of (i) in the case of the Company, (A) a cashier’s or certified check payable to the holder(s) of such shares or wire transfer of immediately available funds, (B) by offsetting any amounts owed by Purchaser to the Company

 

5

 

under the Purchaser Note or any other indebtedness of Purchaser to the Company or its Affiliates evidenced by a note or notes against the purchase price for such shares or (C) any combination of (A) or (B) in the aggregate amount of the purchase price for the Purchaser Shares, provided that the Company shall use reasonable efforts to make all such repurchases with a check or wire transfer of funds, (ii) in the case of the Investors, a cashier’s or certified check payable to the holder(s) of such shares or wire transfer of immediately available funds, or (iii) in any such case, as the holder(s) of such shares and the purchaser(s) thereof may otherwise agree. Any payments (whether by cash, check or otherwise) made by the Company pursuant to this Section 9(f) shall be subject to any restrictive covenants to which the Company is subject at the time of such purchase. The Company and the Investors, as the case may be, shall receive customary representations and warranties from each seller of Purchaser Shares regarding the sale of the Purchaser Shares (including representations and warranties that such sellers have authorized, executed and delivered the applicable agreements, that such agreements are valid and enforceable and that the purchaser shall obtain good title to such shares, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances).

 

(g)                                      Termination of Repurchase Right. The right of the Company and the Investors to repurchase shares of Purchaser Shares pursuant to this Section 9 shall terminate upon the consummation of a Sale of the Company.

 

(h)                                      Additional Restrictions on Transfer.

 

(i)                                All Shares are subject to the restrictions on Transfer set forth in the Investor Rights Agreement.

 

(ii)                             In addition to any other legend required pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement or otherwise, any certificate representing the Shares shall bear the following legend:

Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall

 

11

 

not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

(f)                                    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

 

(g)                                 Remedies. Each of the parties to this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce its rights under this Agreement specifically, to recover damages and costs (including reasonable attorney’s fees) caused by any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights existing in its favor. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement and that any party may in its sole discretion apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction (without posting any bond or deposit) for specific performance and/or other injunctive relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions of this Agreement.
