The date and time when the Merger shall become effective is herein referred to as the “Effective Time.”

Section 2.3 Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects provided for in this Agreement and in the applicable provisions of Delaware Law.

Section 2.4 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws.

(a) At the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation of the Company, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be amended and restated as of the Effective Time to be in the form set forth in Exhibit F hereto, and as so amended, shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with its terms and as provided by applicable Law.

(b) At the Effective Time, the bylaws of the Company, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be amended and restated as of the Effective Time to be in the form of (except with respect to the name of the Company (which shall be the same as the name of the Company prior to the Effective Time)) the bylaws of Sub as of the date hereof and, as so amended, shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended in accordance with their terms, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation and as provided by applicable Law.

Section 2.5 Directors; Officers.

Section 2.7 Conversion of Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of the Acquiror, Sub, the Company or any holder of any Company Shares (each such holder (other than holders of Cancelled Shares), a “Company Stockholder”) or any shares of capital stock of Sub:

(a) Each Company Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Cancelled Shares and any Dissenting Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive, subject to and in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.10 and Section 2.13 hereof, at the times specified herein, the number of Merger Consideration Units, if any, that is equal to:

(i) in the case of a share of Company Series A Preferred Stock, (A) the Series A Per Share Merger Consideration, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 2.13, divided by (B) the Merger Consideration Unit Issue Value (the “Series A Merger Consideration”);

(ii) in the case of a share of Company Series B Preferred Stock, (A) the Series B Per Share Merger Consideration, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 2.13, divided by (B) the Merger Consideration Unit Issue Value (the “Series B Merger Consideration”); and

(iii) in the case of a share of Company Common Stock, (A) the Common Per Share Merger Consideration, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 2.13, divided by (B) the Merger Consideration Unit Issue Value (the “Common Merger Consideration” and, together with the Series A Merger Consideration and the Series B Merger Consideration, the “Merger Consideration”).

As of the Effective Time, all such shares of Company Series A Preferred Stock, Company Series B Preferred Stock and Company Common Stock shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and shall thereafter only represent the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration.

(b) Each Company Share that is owned by the Acquiror or Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Acquiror-Owned Shares”) and the Acquiror Option for Company Shares shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no cash or other consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefor;

(c) Each Company Share that is held in the treasury of the Company or owned by the Company or any of its wholly owned Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no cash or other consideration shall be delivered or deliverable in exchange therefore (the Company Shares described in Section 2.7(b) and this Section 2.7(c) shall be referred to herein as the “Cancelled Shares”); and

(d) Each share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one fully paid share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

Section 2.8 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Company Shares (other than Cancelled Shares) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder who has not voted in favor of the Merger or consented thereto in writing and who has properly demanded appraisal for such Company Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL, if such Section provides for appraisal rights for such Company Shares in the Merger (“Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into or be exchangeable for the right to receive a portion of the Merger Consideration unless and until such holder fails to perfect or withdraws or otherwise loses such right to appraisal and payment under the DGCL. If, after the Effective Time, any such holder fails to perfect or withdraws or loses such right to appraisal, such Dissenting Shares shall thereupon be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the portion of the Merger Consideration, if any, to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.7(a), without interest. The Company shall give the Acquiror (a) prompt notice of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of Company Shares, attempted written withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by the Company relating to stockholders’ rights to appraisal with respect to the Merger and (b) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any exercise of such appraisal rights under the DGCL. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Acquiror, voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demands for payment of fair value for capital stock of the Company, offer to settle or settle any such demands or approve any withdrawal of any such demands.

Section 2.9 Options.

(a) At the Effective Time, each Vested Option issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled, and in consideration of such cancellation, each holder of such Vested Option (each, a “Company Optionholder”) shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock for which such Vested Option is exercisable and (ii) the excess of the Common Per Share Merger Consideration over the per share exercise price of such Vested Option. The amounts described in this Section 2.9(a) shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Vested Options.

(b) At the Effective Time, to the extent not prohibited by applicable Law, each Unvested Option shall be cancelled without consideration and shall be of no further force and effect.

Section 2.10 Exchange of Company Shares; Payment for Options.

(a) Prior to the Closing Date, each Company Stockholder of record of uncertificated Company Shares represented by book entry (“Book-Entry Shares”) and whose Company Shares were converted into the right to receive the consideration described in Section 2.7(a), received a letter of transmittal in the form attached as Exhibit G hereto (the “Letter of Transmittal”). Upon surrender of a Book-Entry Share by delivery to the Acquiror at or after the Closing of a duly completed and validly executed Letter of Transmittal and an executed counterpart signature page to the A&R Stockholder Agreement, the Company Stockholder of such Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange for such Book-Entry Shares (other than any Cancelled Shares and any Dissenting Shares) (A) that number of shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock to which such Company Stockholder shall have become entitled pursuant to Section 2.7(a), rounded to the nearest whole share (which shall be in uncertificated book-entry form), (B) any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.10(c) and (C) that number of Acquiror Warrants to acquire shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock to which such Company Stockholder shall have become entitled pursuant to Section 2.7(a), rounded to the nearest whole share, and such Book-Entry Shares shall then be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on any unpaid dividends and distributions, if any, payable to any Company Stockholder. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.10, each Book-Entry Share shall be deemed after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof and any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.10(c).

(b) If payment of the Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Book-Entry Share is registered, it shall be a condition of payment that such Book-Entry Share shall be properly transferred and that the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of such Book-Entry Share or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Acquiror that such Tax is not applicable.

(c) No dividends or other distributions with respect to Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Book-Entry Share with respect to the shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock that the holder thereof has the right to receive upon the surrender thereof until the holder thereof shall surrender such Book-Entry Share in accordance with this Article II. Following the surrender of Book-Entry Shares in accordance with this Article II, there shall be paid to the record holder thereof, without interest, (i) promptly after such surrender, the amount of any dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such whole shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender and a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such whole shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock.

(d) The Merger Consideration and any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.10(c) issued and paid upon the surrender for exchange of Book-Entry Shares in accordance with the terms of this Article II shall be deemed to have been issued and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Company Shares formerly represented by such Book-Entry Shares. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of the Company Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, transfer is sought for Book-Entry Shares, such Book-Entry Shares shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no fractional shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Book-Entry Shares, no dividends or other distributions with respect to the Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock shall be payable on or with respect to any fractional share, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a stockholder of the Acquiror, and the number of shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock issued upon the surrender for exchange of Book-Entry Shares (taking into account all Company Shares held at the Effective Time by such holder) shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Acquiror Warrants shall be issued to acquire fractional shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock, and the number of shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock that may be acquired by any holder pursuant to the Acquiror Warrants issued upon the surrender for exchange of Book-Entry Shares (taking into account all Company Shares held at the Effective Time by such holder) shall be rounded to the nearest whole share.

(f) None of the Acquiror, the Surviving Corporation or any other Person shall be liable to any Person in respect of shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock or dividends or other distributions with respect thereto properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Book-Entry Shares shall not have been exchanged prior to two years after the Effective Time, or immediately prior to such earlier date on which the related Merger Consideration (and all dividends or other distributions with respect to shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock) would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, any such Merger Consideration (and such dividends, distributions and cash) in respect thereof shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(g) As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, in exchange for the Vested Options, make the payment in respect of each such Option to which each holder thereof is entitled as specified in Section 2.9(a).

Section 2.11 Withholding Right. The Acquiror, Sub and the Surviving Corporation shall each be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted and withheld, from the consideration otherwise payable to any Company Stockholder, Company Optionholder or other Person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as the Acquiror, Sub or the Surviving Corporation determines it is required to deduct and withhold under the Code, or any provision of applicable Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made.

Section 2.12 Reserved.

Section 2.13 Post-Closing Adjustment of Merger Consideration.

(a) Within 90 days after the Closing Date, the Acquiror shall prepare and deliver to the Stockholder Representative (on behalf of the Stockholders) a written statement (the “Final Closing Statement”) that shall include and set forth (i) a consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries dated as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Balance Sheet”) and (ii) a calculation of the actual (A) Net Working Capital (the “Closing Net Working Capital”) and (B) Indebtedness (the “Closing Indebtedness”) (with each of Closing Net Working Capital and Closing Indebtedness determined as of 11:59 pm Eastern Time on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date without giving effect to the transactions contemplated herein, except for Transaction Expenses, which shall be determined as of the Closing giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby). Closing Net Working Capital and Closing Indebtedness shall be calculated in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with the preparation of the Balance Sheet (provided that in the event of a conflict between GAAP and consistent application thereof, GAAP shall prevail), subject to such differences in accounting principles, policies and procedures as are set forth in the Sample Net Working Capital Calculation (the “Applicable Accounting Principles”).

(b) The Final Closing Statement shall become final and binding on the 30th day following delivery thereof, unless prior to the end of such period, the Stockholder Representative delivers to the Acquiror written notice of its disagreement (a “Notice of Disagreement”) specifying the nature and amount of any dispute as to the Closing Net Working Capital and/or Closing Indebtedness, as set forth in the Final Closing Statement. The Stockholder Representative shall be deemed to have agreed with all items and amounts of Closing Net Working Capital and/or Closing Indebtedness not specifically referenced in the Notice of Disagreement, and such items and amounts shall not be subject to review in accordance with Section 2.13(c). Any Notice of Disagreement may reference only disagreements based on mathematical errors or based on amounts of the Closing Net Working Capital and/or Closing Indebtedness as reflected on the Final Closing Statement not being calculated in accordance with this Section 2.13.

(c) During the 15-day period following delivery of a Notice of Disagreement by the Stockholder Representative to the Acquiror, the parties in good faith shall seek to resolve in writing any differences that they may have with respect to the computation of the Closing Net Working Capital and/or Closing Indebtedness as specified therein. Any disputed items resolved in writing between the Stockholder Representative and the Acquiror within such 15-day period shall be final and binding with respect to such items, and if the Stockholder Representative and the Acquiror agree in writing on the resolution of each disputed item specified by the Stockholder Representative in the Notice of Disagreement and the amount of the Closing Net Working Capital and Closing Indebtedness, the amounts so determined shall be final and binding on the parties for all purposes hereunder. If the Stockholder Representative and the Acquiror have not resolved all such differences by the end of such 15-day period, the Stockholder Representative and the Acquiror shall submit, in writing, to a nationally recognized, independent public accounting firm (the “Independent Accounting Firm”), their briefs detailing their views as to the correct nature and amount of each item remaining in dispute and the amounts of the Closing Net Working Capital and Closing Indebtedness, and the Independent Accounting Firm shall make a written determination as to each such disputed item and the amount of the Closing Net Working Capital and Closing Indebtedness, which determination shall be final and binding on the parties for all purposes hereunder. The Independent Accounting Firm shall consider only those items and amounts in the Stockholder Representative’s and the Acquiror’s respective calculations of the Closing Net Working Capital and Closing Indebtedness that are identified as being items and amounts to which the Stockholder Representative and the Acquiror have been unable to agree. In resolving any disputed item, the Independent Accounting Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either party. The Independent Accounting Firm shall be an independent public accounting firm as shall be agreed in writing by the Stockholder Representative and the Acquiror. The Stockholder Representative and the Acquiror shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Accounting Firm to render a written decision resolving the matters submitted to it as promptly as practicable, and in any event within 30 days following the submission thereof. Judgment may be entered upon the written determination of the Independent Accounting Firm in accordance with Section 7.10. In acting under this Agreement, the Independent Accounting Firm will be entitled to the privileges and immunities of an arbitrator.

(d) The costs of any dispute resolution pursuant to Section 2.13(c), including the fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm and of any enforcement of the determination thereof, shall be borne by the Stockholder Representative and the Acquiror in inverse proportion as they may prevail on the matters resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm, which proportionate allocation shall be calculated on an aggregate basis based on the relative dollar values of the amounts in dispute and shall be determined by the Independent Accounting Firm at the time the determination of such firm is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted. The fees and disbursements of the Representatives of each party incurred in connection with the preparation or review of the Final Closing Statement and preparation or review of any Notice of Disagreement, as applicable, shall be borne by such party.

(e) During the period from and after the date of delivery of the Final Closing Statement through the resolution of any adjustment to the Merger Consideration contemplated by this Section 2.13, the Acquiror shall cause the Surviving Corporation to afford the Stockholder Representative and its Representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice, to the personnel, properties, books and records of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries and to any other information reasonably requested for purposes of preparing and reviewing the calculations contemplated by this Section 2.13. Each party shall authorize its accountants to disclose work papers generated by such accountants in connection with preparing and reviewing the calculations of the Net Working Capital and Indebtedness as specified in this Section 2.13; provided that such accountants shall not be obligated to make any work papers available except in accordance with such accountants’ disclosure procedures and then only after the non-client party has signed an agreement relating to access to such work papers in form and substance acceptable to such accountants.

(f) The Merger Consideration shall be adjusted, upwards or downwards, as follows:

(i) For the purposes of this Agreement, the “Net Adjustment Amount” means an amount, which may be positive or negative, equal to (A) the Closing Net Working Capital as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.13 minus the Target Net Working Capital, minus the Closing Indebtedness as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.13;

(ii) If the Net Adjustment Amount is positive by an amount in excess of $300,000, the Enterprise Value shall be adjusted upwards in an amount equal to the Net Adjustment Amount. In such event, each Company Stockholder shall be entitled to receive, subject to and in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.10, the number of Merger Consideration Units that is equal to (A) the number of Merger Consideration Units to which such Company Stockholder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.7(a) based upon the adjusted Enterprise Value, minus (B) the number of Merger Consideration Units issued to such Company Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.7(a) based upon the unadjusted Enterprise Value, plus (C) such Company Stockholder’s Consideration Percentage of (1) the excess of the aggregate amount that would be payable to the Company Optionholders pursuant to Section 2.9(a) based upon the adjusted Enterprise Value over the aggregate amount paid to the Company Optionholders pursuant to Section 2.9(a) based upon the unadjusted Enterprise Value, divided by (2) the Merger Consideration Unit Issue Value. To the extent such adjustment results in any Company Stockholder being entitled to receive a fractional share of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock, the number of shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock such Company Stockholder shall be entitled to receive shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. To the extent such adjustment results in any Company Stockholder being entitled to receive Acquiror Warrants to acquire a fractional share of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock, the number of shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock that may be acquired pursuant to the Acquiror Warrants such Company Stockholder shall be entitled to receive shall be rounded to the nearest whole share.

(iii) If the Net Adjustment Amount is negative (in which case the “Net Adjustment Amount” for purposes of this clause (iii) shall be deemed to be equal to the absolute value of such amount) by an amount in excess of $300,000, the Enterprise Value shall be adjusted downwards in an amount equal to the Net Adjustment Amount. In such event, the Acquiror shall cancel a number of Merger Consideration Units held by each Company Stockholder that is equal to (A) the number of Merger Consideration Units issued to such Company Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.7(a) based upon the unadjusted Enterprise Value, minus (B) the number of Merger Consideration Units to which such Company Stockholder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.7(a) based upon the adjusted Enterprise Value, plus (C) such Company Stockholder’s Consideration Percentage of (1) the excess of the aggregate amount paid to the Company Optionholders pursuant to Section 2.9(a) based upon the unadjusted Enterprise Value over the aggregate amount that would be payable to the Company Optionholders pursuant to Section 2.9(a) based upon the adjusted Enterprise Value, divided by (2) the Merger Consideration Unit Issue Value. To the extent such cancellation results in any Company Stockholder holding a fractional share of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock, the number of shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock such Company Stockholder holds shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. To the extent such cancellation results in any Company Stockholder holding Acquiror Warrants to acquire a fractional share of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock, the number of shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock that may be acquired pursuant to such Acquiror Warrants shall be rounded to the nearest whole share.

Section 2.14 Stockholder Representative.

(a) By the approval of this Agreement pursuant to the DGCL, the Stockholder Consent and the Letter of Transmittal, the Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders irrevocably appoint and constitute José Vargas as agent, proxy and attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to act on behalf of the Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders for certain limited purposes, as specified herein (the “Stockholder Representative”), including the full power and authority to act on the Company Stockholders’ and Company Optionholders’ behalf as provided in Section 2.14(b). The Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders, by approving this Agreement, further agree that such agency, proxy and attorney-in-fact are coupled with an interest, are therefore irrevocable without the consent of the Stockholder Representative, except as provided in Section 2.14(c), and shall be binding upon the successors, heirs, executors, administers and legal representatives of each Stockholder and shall not be affected by, and shall survive, the death, incapacity, bankruptcy, dissolution or liquidation of any Company Stockholder or Company Optionholder. All decisions, actions, consents and instructions by the Stockholder Representative shall be binding upon all of the Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders, and no Company Stockholder or Company Optionholder shall have the right to object to, dissent from, protest or otherwise contest any such decision, action, consent or instruction. The Acquiror and Sub shall be entitled to rely on any decision, action, consent or instruction of the Stockholder Representative as being the decision, action, consent or instruction of the Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders, and the Acquiror and Sub are hereby relieved from any liability to any Person for acts done by them in accordance with any such decision, act, consent or instruction.

(b) The Stockholder Representative shall have such powers and authority as are necessary to carry out the functions assigned to it under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Stockholder Representative shall have full power, authority and discretion to (i) consummate the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (including pursuant to Section 2.13 hereof); (ii) negotiate disputes arising under, or relating to, this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (including pursuant to Section 2.13 and Article V hereof); (iii) receive and disburse to the Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders any amounts received on behalf of the Company Stockholders or Company Optionholders under this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements (including pursuant to Section 2.13 and Article V hereof); (iv) withhold any amounts received on behalf of the Company Stockholders or Company Optionholders under this Agreement or otherwise to satisfy any and all obligations or liabilities incurred by the Company Stockholders, Company Optionholders or the Stockholder Representative in the performance of their duties hereunder (including pursuant to Section 2.13 and Article V hereof); (v) execute and deliver any amendment or waiver to this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (without the prior approval of the Company Stockholders or Company Optionholders); and (vi) to take all other actions to be taken by or on behalf of the Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders in connection with this Agreement (including pursuant to Section 2.13 and Article V hereof) and the Ancillary Agreements. The Stockholder Representative shall have no duties or obligations hereunder, including any fiduciary duties, except those set forth herein, and such duties and obligations shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement.

(c) The Stockholder Representative may resign at any time, and may be removed for any reason or no reason by the vote or written consent of Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders holding a majority of the aggregate Consideration Percentage as of the Effective Time (the “Majority Holders”), with the prior consent of the Acquiror, not to be unreasonably withheld. In the event of the death, incapacity, resignation or removal of the Stockholder Representative, a new Stockholder Representative shall be appointed by the vote or written consent of the Majority Holders, with the prior consent of the Acquiror, not to be unreasonably withheld. Notice of such vote or a copy of the written consent appointing such new Stockholder Representative shall be sent to the Acquiror and, after the Effective Time, to the Surviving Corporation, such appointment to be effective upon the later of the date indicated in such consent or the date such consent is received by the Acquiror and, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation; provided, that until such notice is received, the Acquiror, Sub and the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, shall be entitled to rely on the decisions, actions, consents and instructions of the prior Stockholder Representative as described in Section 2.14(a).

(d) The Stockholder Representative shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances (including fees and disbursements of its counsel, experts and other agents and consultants) incurred by the Stockholder Representative in such capacity. Neither the Acquiror nor the Company nor its Subsidiaries shall have any monetary obligation or liability to the Stockholder Representative.

(e) By the approval of this Agreement pursuant to the DGCL, the Stockholder Consent and the Letters of Transmittal, each Company Stockholder and Company Optionholder hereby, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Stockholder Representative and its partners, managers, officers, agents and other representatives from and against any losses, liabilities, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts incurred by such Persons arising out of actions taken or omitted to be taken in the Stockholder Representative’s capacity as the Stockholder Representative (except for those arising out of the Stockholder Representative’s gross negligence or willful misconduct), including the costs and expenses of investigation and defense of claims.

Section 2.15 FIRPTA Certificate. Prior to and within thirty (30) days of the Closing Date, the Company delivered to the Acquiror (i) a properly executed certificate of the Company certifying that the Company is not, and has not been, a United States real property holding corporation, within the meaning of Section 897 of the Code, during the applicable period specified in Section 897(c)(1)(a)(ii) of the Code, which certificate complies with the requirements of Section 1445 of the Code and (ii) a form of notice to the IRS prepared in accordance with the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.897-2(h)(2), each in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit H.

No Option (whether currently outstanding or previously exercised) is, has been or would be, as applicable, subject to any tax, penalty or interest under Section 409A of the Code.

(m) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is a party to any agreement, contract, arrangement or plan (including any Plan) that may reasonably be expected to result, separately or in the aggregate, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (either alone or in combination with any other events), in the payment of any “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code. There is no agreement, plan or other arrangement to which any of the Company or any Subsidiary is a party or by which any of them is otherwise bound to compensate any person in respect of taxes or other liabilities incurred with respect to Section 409A or 4999 of the Code.

(ii) the fair market value of the assets of each funded Non-U.S. Benefit Plan, the liability of each insurer for any Non-U.S. Benefit Plan funded through insurance or the book reserve established for any Non-U.S. Benefit Plan, together with any accrued contributions, is sufficient to procure or provide for the benefits determined on any ongoing basis (actual or contingent) accrued to the date of this Agreement with respect to all current and former participants under such Non-U.S. Benefit Plan according to the actuarial assumptions and valuations most recently used to determine employer contributions to such Non-U.S. Benefit Plan, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall not cause such assets or insurance obligations to be less than such benefit obligations; and

(iii) each Non-U.S. Benefit Plan required to be registered has been registered and has been maintained in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities. Each Non-U.S. Benefit Plan is now and always has been operated in full compliance with all applicable non-United States Laws.

The Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party does not expressly elect to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim within the time period and otherwise in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 5.4(b), the Indemnified Party shall have the sole right to assume the defense of and to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been specifically authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party or (ii) the named parties to the Third Party Claim (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that representation by counsel to the Indemnifying Party of both the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Party may present such counsel with a conflict of interest. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, enter into any settlement or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to such Third Party Claim if such settlement, compromise or judgment (A) involves a finding or admission of wrongdoing, (B) does not include an unconditional written release by the claimant or plaintiff of the Indemnified Party from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim or (C) imposes equitable remedies or any obligation on the Indemnified Party other than solely the payment of money damages for which the Indemnified Party will be indemnified hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Acquiror shall not, without the prior written consent of the Stockholder Representative (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) enter into any settlement or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to a Third Party Claim relating to Taxes to the extent such settlement, compromise or judgment would increase any Pre-Closing Taxes for which the Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders are liable under this Agreement.

(c) An Indemnified Party seeking indemnification in respect of, arising out of or involving a Loss or a claim or demand hereunder that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party (a “Direct Claim”) shall deliver a Claim Notice in respect thereof to the Indemnifying Party with reasonable promptness after becoming aware of facts supporting such Direct Claim, and shall provide the Indemnifying Party with such information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The failure to deliver a Claim Notice, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article V except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure and shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any other obligation or liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party or otherwise than pursuant to this Article V. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within 30 days following its receipt of a Claim Notice in respect of a Direct Claim that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party hereunder, such Direct Claim specified by the Indemnified Party in such Claim Notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party hereunder and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such liability to the Indemnified Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party agrees that it has an indemnification obligation but asserts that it is obligated to pay a lesser amount than that claimed by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall pay such lesser amount promptly to the Indemnified Party, without prejudice to or waiver of the Indemnified Party’s claim for the difference.

(d) The indemnification required by the Company Stockholders hereunder shall be made, at the option of each Company Stockholder, either in cash or by cancellation by the Acquiror of a number of Merger Consideration Units that is equal to (i) the amount of the indemnifiable Losses payable by such Company Stockholder, divided by (ii) the Merger Consideration Unit Issue Value (or the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock issued to such Company Stockholder into which such number of Merger Consideration Units has been converted); provided that, if such Company Stockholder fails to make payment in cash within five (5) Business Days of demand for payment, the Acquiror may require that such indemnification be made by cancellation of shares. To the extent such cancellation results in any Company Stockholder holding a fractional share of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock, the number of shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock such Company Stockholder holds shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. To the extent such cancellation results in any Company Stockholder holding Acquiror Warrants to acquire a fractional share of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock, the number of shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock that may be acquired pursuant to such Acquiror Warrants shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. To the extent such cancellation results in any Company Stockholder holding a fractional share of Acquiror Common Stock, the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock such Company Stockholder holds shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the close of business on the 120th day following the third anniversary of the Closing (or, if later, the final resolution of any claim pursuant to any Claim Notice delivered prior to such date), any shares of Acquiror Series B Preferred Stock or Acquiror Common Stock transferred by any Company Stockholder in accordance with the A&R Stockholder Agreement to a transferee that is not an Affiliate or Associate (as defined in the A&R Stockholder Agreement) of such Company Stockholder shall no longer be subject to cancellation in order to pay indemnification claims under this Agreement.

(e) The Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to require that any action be made or brought against any other Person before action is brought or claim is made against it hereunder by the Indemnified Party.

(f) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.10, each Indemnifying Party hereby consents to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any court in which an Action in respect of a Third Party Claim is brought against any Indemnified Party for purposes of any claim that an Indemnified Party may have under this Agreement with respect to such Action or the matters alleged therein and agrees that process may be served on each Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim anywhere.

(g) The parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud, intentional misrepresentation or intentional breach) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article V. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action (other than rights, claims and causes of action arising from fraud, intentional misrepresentation or intentional breach) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article V. Nothing in this subsection (g) shall limit any Person's right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled or to seek and obtain any remedy on account of any rights, claims and causes of action arising from fraud, intentional misrepresentation or intentional breach.

Section 5.5 Limits on Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement: (a) an Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 5.2(a) or Section 5.3(a), as the case may be, unless and until the aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from the Indemnifying Party equals or exceeds the Indemnification Deductible, in which case the Indemnifying Party shall be liable only for Losses in excess of such amount, (b) an Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any punitive damages (other than punitive damages awarded to a third party), and (c) the maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from an Indemnifying Party arising out of or relating to the causes set forth in Section 5.2(a) or Section 5.3(a), as the case may be, shall be an amount equal to the Indemnification Cap; provided, that the foregoing clauses (a) and (c) shall not apply to Losses arising out of or relating to the inaccuracy or breach of any Fundamental Representation or of Section 3.15 relating to tax matters or to any representation or warranty in the event of fraud, willful misconduct or intentional misrepresentation (the maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses for which, collectively, shall be an amount equal to the Merger Consideration valued as provided in Section 5.4(d)).

Section 5.6 Additional Provisions Related to Indemnification.

(a) Unless otherwise required by Law, all payments by an Indemnifying Party under this Article V shall be treated as an adjustment to the Merger Consideration for all foreign, federal, state and local income Tax purposes.

(b) The amount of any and all Losses under this Article V shall be determined net of any (i) insurance proceeds actually received by the Acquiror or the Company, as applicable, to the extent resulting from the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification hereunder or (ii) reimbursements or similar payments actually received by the Acquiror or the Company, as applicable, from a third party to the extent resulting from the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification hereunder; provided, however, neither the Acquiror nor the Company, as applicable, shall have any obligation whatsoever to seek any payments from, or take action with respect to, any such insurance policies or third parties in lieu of or as a condition to receiving a payment from an Indemnified Party under this Article V and any such action shall be at the sole discretion of the Acquiror or the Company, as applicable.

(c) In no event shall any Indemnified Party be entitled to recover Losses pursuant to this Article V to the extent that the Acquiror received a benefit from the reflection of such matter in the calculation of the adjustment of the Merger Consideration, if any, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.13.

The Stockholder Representative (on behalf of the Company Stockholders and the Company Optionholders) shall pay to the Acquiror any Pre-Closing Taxes shown to be due thereon (other than to the extent Pre-Closing Taxes were taken into account as a liability in determining Closing Net Working Capital) no later than three (3) days prior to the date on which such Taxes are required to be paid by the applicable Governmental Authority. Unless required by applicable Law, as is consistent with Acquiror’s internal tax reporting policies, or as would not increase any Pre-Closing Taxes for which the Company Stockholders and Company Optionholders are liable under this Agreement, the Acquiror shall not, and shall not permit the Company or any of their Affiliates, to amend any material Tax Return of the Company with respect to a taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, without the prior written consent of the Stockholder Representative, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Acquiror’s reasonable request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees or representatives available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any materials provided hereunder.

(c) In addition to the dividends provided for in Section 4(b), dividends shall commence accruing from the day after the third annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation following the Effective Date and continue to accrue, whether or not declared, and be payable quarterly in arrears on March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15 of each year or, if any such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day (each such day, a “Section 4(c) Dividend Payment Date”). Dividends payable pursuant to this Section 4(c) will accrue, whether or not declared, and will, for each outstanding share of Series B Preferred Stock, accrete at an annual rate on the Share Value equal to eight percent (8%) (such dividend, the “Special Dividend”). Dividends payable pursuant to this Section 4(c) will accrue, whether or not declared, and will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and, for any Section 4(c) Dividend Period greater or less than a full Section 4(c) Dividend Period, will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the period divided by 360.

(e) Each dividend will be payable to Holders of record as they appear in the records of the Corporation at the close of business on the record date (each, a “Record Date”), which, (i) with respect to dividends payable pursuant to Section 4(b), shall be the same day as the record date for the payment of the corresponding dividends to the holders of shares of Common Stock and (ii) with respect to dividends payable pursuant to Section 4(c), shall be on the first day of the month in which the relevant Section 4(c) Dividend Payment Date occurs or, if such date is not a Business Day, the first Business Day of such month.

(f) Dividends payable pursuant to Section 4(b) are non-cumulative. If the Board of Directors does not declare a dividend on the Common Stock in respect of any dividend period, the Holders will have no right to receive any dividend for such dividend period, and the Corporation will have no obligation to pay a dividend for such dividend period, whether or not dividends are declared and paid for any future dividend period with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock or any other class or series of the Corporation’s preferred stock or Common Stock.

(g) If the Mandatory Conversion Date with respect to any share of Series B Preferred Stock is prior to the record date for the payment of any dividend on the Common Stock, the Holder of such share of Series B Preferred Stock will have the right to receive a pro rata portion of any corresponding dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock for the period up to and including the Mandatory Conversion Date.

Section 5. Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up.

(a) In the event the Corporation voluntarily or involuntarily liquidates, dissolves or winds up, each Holder at the time shall be entitled to receive for each share of Series B Preferred Stock held by such Holder liquidating distributions of the remaining assets of the Corporation as if such share of Series B Preferred Stock had been converted, immediately prior to such liquidating distributions, into the number of shares of Common Stock into which such share of Series B Preferred Stock would then be convertible if a Mandatory Conversion Date had occurred.

(b) In the event the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to stockholders upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, shall be insufficient to pay in full the amounts payable with respect to all outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock and outstanding shares of Common Stock and any other securities ranking pari passu with the Common Stock, Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and holders of shares of Common Stock and any other securities ranking pari passu with the Common Stock shall share ratably in any distribution of the assets of the Corporation in proportion to the full respective liquidating distributions to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled.

(c) The Corporation’s consolidation or merger with or into any other entity, the consolidation or merger of any other entity with or into the Corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s property or business will not constitute its liquidation, dissolution or winding up.

Section 6. Maturity. The Series B Preferred Stock shall be perpetual unless converted in accordance with this Certificate of Designations.

Section 7. Redemptions. The Series B Preferred Stock shall not be redeemable either at the Corporation’s option or at the option of Holders at any time.

Section 8. Conversion

(a) Optional Conversion. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 8(a), each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be convertible at any time, at the option of the Holder thereof (each an “Optional Conversion”), into shares of Common Stock as set forth in Section 8(c); provided that any Holder may only convert such number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock such that such Holder (including a “person” or “group” (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) that includes such Holder), does not become a beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act, except that for purposes of this clause, any such person or group shall be deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of all shares that such person or group has the right to acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time), directly or indirectly, of greater than 19.9% of the Common Stock or total voting power of the Voting Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date; provided, further, that the aggregate number shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of any Series B Preferred Stock shall not exceed 4.9% of the Common Stock or total voting power of the Voting Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date.

(b) Mandatory Conversion. Effective as of the close of business on the Mandatory Conversion Date with respect to any share of Series B Preferred Stock, such share of Series B Preferred Stock shall automatically convert into shares of Common Stock as set forth in Section 8(c).

(c) Number of Shares Upon Conversion. The number of shares of Common Stock into which a share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be convertible shall be determined by dividing the then-current Share Value by the Applicable Conversion Price (subject to the conversion procedures of Section 9) plus cash in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with Section 13.

Section 9. Conversion Procedures.

(a) Each Holder seeking an Optional Conversion shall provide the Corporation with notice of such conversion. In addition to any information required by applicable law or regulation, such notice with respect to such Holder shall state, as appropriate:

(1) the date on which the Optional Conversion is to take place (the “Optional Conversion Date”); and

(2) the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of each share of Series B Preferred Stock held of record by such Holder and subject to the Optional Conversion.

(b) Upon the occurrence of the Mandatory Conversion Date with respect to shares of any Holder, the Corporation shall provide notice of such conversion to such Holder. In addition to any information required by applicable law or regulation, such notice with respect to such Holder shall state, as appropriate:

(1) the Mandatory Conversion Date applicable to such Holder; and

(2) the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of each share of Series B Preferred Stock held of record by such Holder and subject to such mandatory conversion.

(c) Effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Optional Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable, with respect to any share of Series B Preferred Stock, dividends shall no longer be declared on any such converted share of Series B Preferred Stock and such share of Series B Preferred Stock shall only represent such number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof and shall cease to be outstanding, in each case, subject to the right of the Holder to receive any declared and unpaid dividends on such share to the extent provided in Section 4 and any other payments to which such Holders is otherwise entitled pursuant to Section 8, Section 11 and Section 13 hereof, as applicable.

(d) No allowance or adjustment, except pursuant to Section 10, shall be made in respect of dividends payable to holders of the Common Stock of record as of any date prior to the close of business on the Optional Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable, with respect to any share of Series B Preferred Stock. Prior to the close of business on the Optional Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable, with respect to any share of Series B Preferred Stock, shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof, or other securities issuable upon conversion of such share of Series B Preferred Stock, shall not be deemed outstanding for any purpose, and the Holder thereof shall have no rights with respect to the Common Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion (including voting rights, rights to respond to tender offers for the Common Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion and rights to receive any dividends or distributions on the Common Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion) by virtue of holding such share of Series B Preferred Stock.

(e) Shares of Series B Preferred Stock converted in accordance with this Certificate of Designations, or otherwise reacquired by the Corporation, will resume the status of authorized and unissued preferred stock, undesignated as to series and available for future issuance. The Corporation may from time-to-time take such appropriate action as may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

(f) The Person or Persons entitled to receive the Common Stock and/or cash, securities or other property issuable upon conversion of Series B Preferred Stock shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of such shares of Common Stock and/or securities as of the close of business on the Optional Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable, with respect thereto. In the event that a Holder shall not by written notice designate the name in which shares of Common Stock and/or cash, securities or other property (including payments of cash in lieu of fractional shares) to be issued or paid upon conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock should be registered or paid or the manner in which such shares should be delivered, the Corporation shall be entitled to register and deliver such shares, and make such payment, in the name of the Holder and in the manner shown on the records of the Corporation or pursuant to applicable law.

Section 10. Anti-Dilution Adjustments.

(a) The Conversion Price shall be subject to the following adjustments:

(1) Stock Dividends and Distributions. If the Corporation pays dividends or other distributions on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution will be multiplied by the following fraction:

OS0

OS1

OS0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution.

OS1 = the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution plus the total number of shares of Common Stock constituting such dividend or distribution.

For the purposes of this clause (1), the number of shares of Common Stock at the time outstanding shall not include shares acquired by the Corporation. If any dividend or distribution described in this clause (1) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to make such dividend or distribution, to such Conversion Price that would be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(2) Subdivisions, Splits and Combination of the Common Stock. If the Corporation subdivides, splits or combines the shares of Common Stock, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the effective date of such share subdivision, split or combination will be multiplied by the following fraction:

OS0

OS1

OS0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of such share subdivision, split or combination.

OS1 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the close of business on the effective date of such share subdivision, split or combination.

For the purposes of this clause (2), the number of shares of Common Stock at the time outstanding shall not include shares acquired by the Corporation. If any subdivision, split or combination described in this clause (2) is announced but the outstanding shares of Common Stock are not subdivided, split or combined, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to subdivide, split or combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, to such Conversion Price that would be in effect if such subdivision, split or combination had not been announced.

(3) Issuance of Stock Purchase Rights. If the Corporation issues to all holders of the shares of Common Stock (and does not make the equivalent issuance to the Holders of Series B Preferred Stock) rights or warrants (other than rights or warrants issued pursuant to a dividend reinvestment plan or share purchase plan or other similar plans) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than the Current Market Price on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Ex-Date for such distribution will be multiplied by the following fraction:

OS0+Y

OS0+X

OS0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Ex-Date for such distribution.

X = the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights or warrants.

Y = the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights or warrants divided by the Current Market Price.

For the purposes of this clause (3), the number of shares of Common Stock at the time outstanding shall not include shares acquired by the Corporation. The Corporation shall not issue any such rights or warrants in respect of shares of the Common Stock acquired by the Corporation. In the event that such rights or warrants described in this clause (3) are not so issued, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to issue such rights or warrants, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such issuance had not been declared. To the extent that such rights or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration or shares of Common Stock are otherwise not delivered pursuant to such rights or warrants upon the exercise of such rights or warrants, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to such Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the adjustment made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of the delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. In determining the aggregate offering price payable for such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received for such rights or warrants and the value of such consideration (if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors).

(4) Self Tender Offers and Exchange Offers. If the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries successfully completes a tender or exchange offer for the Common Stock (and does not make the equivalent offer to the Holders of Series B Preferred Stock) where the cash and the value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of the Common Stock exceeds the Closing Price per share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately succeeding the expiration of the tender or exchange offer, then the Conversion Price in effect at the close of business on such immediately succeeding Trading Day will be multiplied by the following fraction:

OS0 x SP0

AC + (SP0 x OS1)

SP0 = the Closing Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately succeeding the expiration of the tender or exchange offer.

OS0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the expiration of the tender or exchange offer, including any shares validly tendered and not withdrawn.

OS1 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the expiration of the tender or exchange offer and after taking into account the shares purchased pursuant thereto.

AC = the aggregate cash and fair market value of the other consideration payable in the tender or exchange offer, as determined by the Board of Directors.

In the event that the Corporation, or one of its subsidiaries, is obligated to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to any such tender offer or exchange offer, but the Corporation, or such subsidiary, is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases, or all such purchases are rescinded, then the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to be such Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such tender offer or exchange offer had not been made.

(5) Rights Plans. To the extent that the Corporation has a rights plan in effect with respect to the Common Stock on the Optional Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable, upon conversion of any shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, Holders will receive, in addition to the shares of Common Stock, the rights under the rights plan, unless, prior to the Optional Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable, the rights have separated from the shares of Common Stock, in which case the Conversion Price will be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Corporation had made a distribution to all holders of the Common Stock as described in clause (3) above, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

(b) All adjustments to the Conversion Price shall be calculated to the nearest 1/10 of a cent. No adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be required if such adjustment would be less than $0.01; provided, that any adjustments which by reason of this subparagraph are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment; provided further that on the Optional Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable, adjustments to the Conversion Price will be made with respect to any such adjustment carried forward and which has not been taken into account before such date.

(c) If Holders of Series B Preferred Stock may, as a result of holding the Series B Preferred Stock, participate in a transaction that would otherwise give rise to an adjustment (including without limitation pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof), without having to convert the Series B Preferred Stock and as if such Holders held the full number of shares of Common Stock into which a share of the Series B Preferred Stock would then be convertible if a Mandatory Conversion Date had occurred, then no adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made.

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the Applicable Conversion Price shall not be adjusted:

(1) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Corporation’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan;

(2) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or rights or warrants to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries;

(3) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security outstanding as of the Effective Date and not substantially amended thereafter;

(4) for a change in the par value or no par value of Common Stock; or

(5) for accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock.

(e) Whenever the Conversion Price is to be adjusted in accordance with Section 10(a), the Corporation shall: (i) compute the Conversion Price in accordance with Section 10(a), taking into account the threshold set forth in Section 10(b); (ii) as soon as practicable following the occurrence of an event that requires an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to Section 10(a) taking into account the threshold set forth in Section 10(b) (or if the Corporation is not aware of such occurrence, as soon as practicable after becoming so aware), provide, or cause to be provided, a written notice to the Holders of the occurrence of such event; and (iii) as soon as practicable following the determination of the revised Conversion Price in accordance with Section 10(a), provide, or cause to be provided, a written notice to the Holders setting forth in reasonable detail the method by which the adjustment to the Conversion Price was determined and setting forth the revised Conversion Price.

Section 11. Reorganization Events.

(a) In the event of:

(1) any consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into another Person, or other similar transaction, in each case pursuant to which the Common Stock will be converted into cash, securities or other property of the Corporation or another Person;

(2) any sale, transfer, lease or conveyance to another Person of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Corporation, in each case pursuant to which the Common Stock will be converted into cash, securities or other property of the Corporation or another Person;

(3) any reclassification of the Common Stock into securities including securities other than the Common Stock;

(any such event specified in this Section 11(a), a “Reorganization Event”); each share of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Reorganization Event shall remain outstanding but shall become convertible into the kind of securities, cash and other property receivable in such Reorganization Event by the holder (excluding the counterparty to the Reorganization Event or an Affiliate of such counterparty) of that number of shares of Common Stock into which the share of Series B Preferred Stock would then be convertible (such securities, cash and other property, the “Exchange Property”).

(b) In the event that holders of the shares of Common Stock have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in the Reorganization Event, the consideration that the Holders are entitled to receive shall be deemed to be the types and amounts of consideration received by the majority of the holders of the shares of Common Stock that affirmatively make an election. The amount of Exchange Property receivable upon conversion of any Series B Preferred Stock in accordance with Section 8 shall be determined based upon the Conversion Price in effect on the date of consummation of the Reorganization Event.

(c) The above provisions of this Section 11 shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events and the provisions of Section 10 shall apply to any shares of Capital Stock of the Corporation (or any successor) received by the holders of the Common Stock in any such Reorganization Event.

(d) The Corporation (or any successor) shall, within twenty (20) days of the occurrence of any Reorganization Event, provide written notice to the Holders of such occurrence of such event and of the kind and amount of the cash, securities or other property that constitutes the Exchange Property. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the operation of this Section 11.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11 or otherwise in this Certificate of Designations, the Corporation shall not enter into any agreement for a transaction constituting a Fundamental Change unless such agreement (i) entitles Holders to receive, on an as-converted basis, the securities, cash and other property receivable in such transaction by a holder of shares of Common Stock that was not the counterparty to such transaction or an Affiliate of such other party as described in Section 11(a) or (ii) provides that each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be converted into the number of shares of Common Stock as provided in Section 8(c). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall prohibit the Corporation from entering into or consummating a transaction constituting a Fundamental Change provided that the Series B Preferred Stock is treated as set forth in the preceding sentence.

Section 12. Voting Rights.

(a) The Series B Preferred Stock shall be non-voting and, except as otherwise required by applicable law or as provided in Section 12(b), each Holder of the Series B Preferred Stock shall not have any voting rights on any matter.

(b) So long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, the vote or consent of the Holders of a majority of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, voting as a single class, given in person or by proxy, either in writing without a meeting or by vote at any meeting called for the purpose, will be necessary for effecting or validating any of the following actions, whether or not such approval is required by Delaware law:

(1) any amendment, alteration or repeal of any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, this Certificate of Designations, or the Corporation’s bylaws (whether by merger, consolidation, business combination or otherwise) that would alter or change the voting powers, preferences or special rights of the Series B Preferred Stock so as to affect them adversely; or

(2) the consummation of a binding share exchange or reclassification involving the Common Stock or a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with another entity, except that Holders will have no separate right to vote under this provision or under Section 251 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or otherwise under Delaware law if (x) the Corporation shall have complied with Section 11(e), (y) the transaction shall be a Reorganization Event in which each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be convertible into the Exchange Property, or (z) (1) the Series B Preferred Stock remains outstanding or, in the case of any such merger or consolidation with respect to which the Corporation is not the surviving or resulting entity, is converted into or exchanged for preference securities or common stock of the surviving or resulting entity or its ultimate parent, that is an entity organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and (2) such Series B Preferred Stock remaining outstanding or such preference securities or common stock, as the case may be, have such rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, taken as a whole, as are not materially less favorable to the Holders thereof than the rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers of the Series B Preferred Stock, taken as a whole;

provided, however, that any increase in the amount of the authorized preferred stock or any securities convertible into preferred stock or the creation and issuance, or an increase in the authorized or issued amount, of any series of preferred stock, or any securities convertible into preferred stock ranking junior to, equally with and/or senior to the Series B Preferred Stock with respect to the payment of dividends (whether such dividends are cumulative or non-cumulative) and/or the distribution of assets upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, will not, in and of itself, be deemed to adversely affect the voting powers, preferences or special rights of the Series B Preferred Stock and, notwithstanding Section 251 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or any other provision of Delaware law, Holders will have no right to separately vote solely by reason of such an increase, creation or issuance.

If an amendment, alteration, repeal, share exchange, reclassification, merger or consolidation described above would adversely affect one or more but not all series of preferred stock with like voting rights (including the Series B Preferred Stock for this purpose), then only the series affected and entitled to vote shall vote as a class in lieu of all such series of preferred stock.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holders shall not have any voting rights if, at or prior to the effective time of the act with respect to which such vote would otherwise be required, all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall have been converted into shares of Common Stock.

Section 13. Fractional Shares.

(a) No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued as a result of any conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

(b) In lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock otherwise issuable in respect of any conversion pursuant to Section 8 hereof, the Corporation shall pay an amount in cash (computed to the nearest cent) equal to the same fraction of the Closing Price of the Common Stock determined as of the second Trading Day immediately preceding the Optional Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable.

(c) If more than one share of the Series B Preferred Stock is surrendered for conversion at one time by or for the same Holder, the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock so surrendered.

Section 14. Reservation of Common Stock.

(a) The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock or shares acquired by the Corporation, solely for issuance upon the conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock as provided in this Certificate of Designations, free from any preemptive or other similar rights, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be issuable upon the conversion of all such shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding, assuming that the Applicable Conversion Price equaled the Conversion Price on the Effective Date. For purposes of this Section 14(a), the number of shares of Common Stock that shall be deliverable upon the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be computed as if at the time of computation all such outstanding shares were held by a single Holder.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall be entitled to deliver upon conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, as herein provided, shares of Common Stock acquired by the Corporation (in lieu of the issuance of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock), so long as any such acquired shares are free and clear of all liens, charges, security interests or encumbrances (other than liens, charges, security interests and other encumbrances created by the Holders).

(c) All shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, free and clear of all liens, claims, security interests and other encumbrances (other than liens, charges, security interests and other encumbrances created by the Holders).

(d) Prior to the delivery of any securities that the Corporation shall be obligated to deliver upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all federal and state laws and regulations thereunder requiring the registration of such securities with, or any approval of or consent to the delivery thereof by, any governmental authority, and if notwithstanding such efforts the shares of Common Stock cannot be delivered in compliance with such laws and regulations, then the Corporation shall not be required to so deliver until it can deliver in compliance with such laws and regulations.

Exhibit B

Form of Amended and Restated Stockholder Agreement

Amended and Restated Stockholder Agreement

This Amended and Restated Stockholder Agreement (“Agreement”) is made as of October 1, 2015 (“Effective Date”) by and among Autobytel Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Auto Holdings Ltd., a British Virgin Islands business company (the “Original Restricted Stockholder”), Manatee Ventures Inc., a British Virgin Islands business company (“Manatee”), Galeb3 Inc, a Florida corporation (“Galeb3”), Matías de Tezanos (“de Tezanos”), José Vargas (“Vargas”) and the parties set forth on the signature pages hereto. The Company, the Original Restricted Stockholder, Manatee, Galeb3, de Tezanos and Vargas are referred to herein collectively as the “Original Parties.” The Original Parties and any additional parties to this Agreement are referred to herein collectively as the “Parties” and sometimes each individually as a “Party.”

Background

Pursuant to the Note and Warrant Sale Agreement dated as of April 27, 2015 by and among the Atrop, Inc., a Florida corporation (formerly Autotropolis, Inc.), IBBF Ventures, Inc. a Florida corporation (formerly Cyber Ventures, Inc.), the Original Restricted Stockholder and the Company, the Original Restricted Stockholder acquired approximately 14.25% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. In connection with the Note and Warrant Sale Agreement, the Original Parties entered into a Stockholder Agreement dated as of April 27, 2015 (the “Original Agreement”).

As a condition to and concurrently with the execution of that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 1, 2015 (the “Merger Agreement”) by and between the Company, New Horizon Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, Autoweb, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“AutoWeb”), and José Vargas, an individual, solely in his capacity as the initial Stockholder Representative thereunder, the Original Parties desire to amend and restate the Original Agreement as set forth herein. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and as a condition to receipt of the Merger Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement) each of the stockholders of Autoweb, Inc. being paid Merger Consideration pursuant to the Merger Agreement (each, an “AutoWeb Securityholder” and, collectively the “AutoWeb Securityholders” and, collectively with the Original Restricted Stockholder, the “Restricted Stockholders”) shall execute and deliver this Agreement.

Effective as of May 26, 2010, the Company adopted a Tax Benefit Preservation Plan, which plan was amended by Amendment No. 1 to Tax Benefit Preservation Plan dated as of April 14, 2014 (collectively the “NOL Plan”). The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) adopted the NOL Plan to protect stockholder value by preserving important tax assets. The Company has generated substantial net operating loss carryovers and other tax attributes for United States federal income tax purposes (“Tax Benefits”) that can generally be used to offset future taxable income and therefore reduce federal income tax obligations. However, the Company’s ability to use the Tax Benefits will be adversely affected if there is an “ownership change” of the Company as defined under Section 382 (“Section 382”) of the Internal Revenue Code (as defined below). In general, an ownership change will occur if the Company’s “5% shareholders” (as defined under Section 382) collectively increase their ownership in the Company by more than 50% over a rolling three-year period. The NOL Plan was adopted to reduce the likelihood that the Company’s use of its Tax Benefits could be substantially limited under Section 382. The NOL Plan is intended to deter any “Person” (as defined in the NOL Plan) from becoming an “Acquiring Person” (as defined in the NOL Plan) and thereby jeopardizing the Company’s Tax Benefits. In general, an Acquiring Person is any Person, itself or together with all Affiliates (as defined below) of such Person, that becomes the “Beneficial Owner” (as defined in the NOL Plan) of 4.9% or more of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. Under the NOL Plan, the Board may, in its sole discretion, exempt any person from being deemed an Acquiring Person for purposes of the NOL Plan (a “NOL Plan Exemption”) if the Board determines that such person’s ownership of Common Stock will not be likely to directly or indirectly limit the availability of the Company’s Tax Benefits or is otherwise in the best interests of the Company. The Board does not have any obligation, implied or otherwise, to grant such an exemption.

In reliance upon the representations, warranties and obligations of the Original Restricted Stockholder under the Original Agreement, the Board granted the Original Restricted Stockholder a NOL Plan Exemption solely with respect to the Original Restricted Stockholder’s acquisition of the Derivative Securities and the Initial Restricted Securities.

Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement one or more AutoWeb Securityholders may be deemed to be an Acquiring Person under the NOL Plan. The applicable AutoWeb Securityholders have requested that the Board consider whether the Board would exercise its discretionary authority under the NOL Plan to deem such AutoWeb Securityholders and their respective Affiliates not to be an Acquiring Person by reason of the acquisition of Beneficial Ownership of the Capital Stock issued pursuant to the Merger Agreement because the acquisition of Beneficial Ownership of such Capital Stock by such AutoWeb Securityholders and their respective Affiliates will not be likely to directly or indirectly limit the availability to the Company of the Tax Benefits or otherwise is in the best interests of the Company. The Board has considered such AutoWeb Securityholders’ request and shall grant such AutoWeb Securityholders and their respective Affiliates a NOL Plan Exemption, subject to and in reliance upon such AutoWeb Securityholders entering into and remaining in compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

In consideration of the mutual promises and covenants set forth herein, the Parties hereto further agree as follows:

Article IV

Registration Rights

The Restricted Stockholders are granted the following registration rights after the third anniversary of the Effective Date with regard to Registrable Securities held by the Restricted Stockholders.

4.1 Demand Registration.

(a) If at any time the Company is eligible to use a Form S-3 registration statement, the Company receives a request in writing from one or more Restricted Stockholders (“Requesting Restricted Stockholders”) that the Company file a Form S-3 registration statement with respect to outstanding Registrable Securities held by the Requesting Restricted Stockholders having an anticipated aggregate offering price, net of Selling Expenses, of at least five million dollars ($5,000,000.00) (a “Demand Registration Request”), then the Company shall as soon as practicable, and in any event within ninety (90) days after the date the Demand Registration Request is received by the Company, file a Form S-3 registration statement under the Securities Act covering all Restricted Securities requested to be included in such registration by the Requesting Restricted Stockholders, subject to the limitations of Section 4.1(b), 4.1(c), and Section 4.3. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause such Form S-3 registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable after filing. Any registration requested by any Restricted Stockholder pursuant to this Section 4.1 is referred to in this Agreement as a “Demand Registration.”

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing obligations, if the Company furnishes to the applicable Requesting Restricted Stockholders a certificate signed by the Company’s chief executive officer stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such registration statement to either become effective or remain effective for as long as such registration statement otherwise would be required to remain effective, because such action would: (i) materially interfere with a significant acquisition, corporate reorganization, or other similar transaction involving the Company; (ii) require premature disclosure of material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential; or (iii) render the Company unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange Act, then the Company shall have the right to defer taking action with respect to such filing, and any time periods with respect to filing or effectiveness thereof shall be tolled correspondingly, for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after the Demand Registration Request; provided, however, that the Company may not invoke this right more than once with respect to any given Requesting Restricted Stockholders in any twelve (12) month period; and providedfurther that the Company shall not register any securities for its own account or that of any other stockholder during such ninety (90) day period other than an Excluded Registration.

(c) The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any registration pursuant to Section 4.1(a) (i) during the period that is ninety (90) days before the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on a date that is ninety (90) days after the effective date of, a Company-initiated registration, provided, that the Company is actively employing in good faith commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; or (ii) if the Company has effected a registration pursuant to Section 4.1(a) within the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the date of such request. A registration shall not be counted as “effected” for purposes of this Section 4.1(c) until such time as the applicable registration statement has been declared effective by the SEC, unless the Requesting Restricted Stockholders withdraw their request for such registration, elects not to pay the registration expenses therefor, and forfeits its right to one demand registration statement pursuant to this Section 4.1 as provided in Section 4.6, in which case such withdrawn registration statement shall be counted as “effected” for purposes of this Section 4.1(c).

(d) The Restricted Stockholders as a group shall only be entitled to two (2) Demand Registrations under this Section 4.1.

(e) Promptly after receipt of any Demand Registration Request, the Company shall give written notice of such request to all other Restricted Stockholders. Upon the request in writing of a Restricted Stockholder given within twenty (20) days after such notice is given by the Company, the Company shall use, subject to the provisions of Section 4.3, its commercially reasonable efforts to register, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, all the Registrable Securities that have been properly requested to be registered in such Demand Registration.

4.2 Company Registration. If the Company proposes to register (including, for this purpose, a registration effected by the Company for stockholders other than Restricted Stockholders) any of its capital stock or other securities under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than in an Excluded Registration), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Restricted Stockholder notice of such registration. Upon the request in writing of a Restricted Stockholder given within twenty (20) days after such notice is given by the Company, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 4.3, cause to be registered all of the Registrable Securities that such Restricted Stockholder has properly requested to be included in such registration. The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 4.2 before the effective date of such registration, whether or not any Restricted Stockholder has elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration. The expenses (other than Selling Expenses) of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 4.6.

4.3 Underwriting Requirements.

(a) If, pursuant to Section 4.1, the Requesting Restricted Stockholders intend to distribute Registrable Securities covered by the Demand Registration Request by means of an underwriting, the Requesting Restricted Stockholders shall so advise the Company as a part of the Demand Registration Request. The underwriter(s) will be selected by the Requesting Restricted Stockholders subject to the reasonable approval of Company. In such event, the right of any Restricted Stockholders to include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon the Restricted Stockholder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of the Restricted Stockholder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. The Requesting Restricted Stockholders (and any other Restricted Stockholders participating in the Demand Registration pursuant to Section 4.1(e) (the Requesting Restricted Stockholders and such additional Restricted Stockholders participating in the Demand Registration are collectively referred to herein as “Participating Restricted Stockholders”)) shall (together with the Company as provided in Section 4.4(e)) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter(s) selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.3, if the managing underwriter(s) advise(s) the Participating Restricted Stockholders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, then the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be reduced to the number of Registrable Securities determined by the managing underwriter(s), which securities will be so included in the following order of priority: (i) first, all Registrable Securities of the Requesting Restricted Stockholders, (ii) second, all Registrable Securities of any other Participating Restricted Stockholder, pro rata on the basis of the aggregate number of Registrable Securities owned by each such Person, and (iii) third, any other securities of the Company that have been requested to be so included, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(b) In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to Section 4.2, the Company shall not be required to include any Registrable Securities of any Restricted Stockholder in such underwriting unless such Restricted Stockholder accepts the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters, and then only in such quantity as the underwriters in their sole discretion determine will not jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. If the total number of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the number of securities to be sold (other than by the Company) that the underwriters in their reasonable discretion determine is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Registrable Securities, which the underwriters and the Company in their sole discretion determine will not jeopardize the success of the offering. If the managing underwriter(s) determine that less than all of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered can be included in such offering, then the Registrable Securities that are included in such offering shall be reduced to the number determined by the managing underwriter(s). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the number of Registrable Securities included in the offering be reduced unless all other securities (other than securities to be sold by the Company) are first entirely excluded from the offering or, subject to Section 4.11, cutback proportionately with Third Party Registrable Securities (as defined in Section 4.11) requested to be registered. For purposes of the provision in this Section 4.3(b) concerning apportionment, for any Participating Restricted Stockholder that is a partnership, limited liability company, or corporation, the partners, members, retired partners, retired members, stockholders, and Affiliates of such Participating Restricted Stockholder, or the estates and Immediate Family Members of any such partners, retired partners, members, and retired members and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing Persons, shall be deemed to be a single Participating Restricted Stockholder,” and any pro rata reduction with respect to such Participating Restricted Stockholder” shall be based upon the aggregate number of Registrable Securities owned by all Persons included in such Participating Restricted Stockholder.

(c) For purposes of Section 4.1, a registration shall not be counted as “effected” if, as a result of an exercise of the underwriter’s cutback provisions in Section 4.3(b), fewer than fifty percent (50%) of the total number of Registrable Securities that the Requesting Restricted Stockholders have requested to be included in such registration statement are actually included.

4.4 Obligations of the Company. Whenever required under this Article IV to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

(a) prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective and, upon the request of the Participating Restricted Stockholders, keep such registration statement effective for a period of at least one hundred eighty (180) days or, if earlier, until the distribution contemplated in the registration statement has been completed; provided, however, that (i) such one hundred eighty (180) day period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period the Participating Restricted Stockholders refrain, at the request of an underwriter of securities of the Company, from selling any securities included in such registration, and (ii) in the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 that are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, subject to compliance with applicable SEC rules, such one hundred eighty (180) day period shall be extended, if necessary, to keep the registration statement effective until all such Registrable Securities are sold;

(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement, and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement, as may be necessary to comply with the Securities Act in order to enable the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement;

(c) furnish to the Participating Restricted Stockholders such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, as required by the Securities Act, and such other documents as the Participating Restricted Stockholder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities;

(d) use its commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or blue-sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by any Participating Restricted Stockholder; provided that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act;

(e) in the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the underwriter(s) of such offering;

(f) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement to be listed on a national securities exchange or trading system and each securities exchange and trading system (if any) on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed;

(g) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Agreement and provide a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration;

(h) promptly make available for inspection by the Participating Restricted Stockholders, any managing underwriter(s) participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement, and any attorney or accountant or other agent retained by any such underwriter or selected by the Participating Restricted Stockholders, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents, and properties of the Company, and cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees, and independent accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant, or agent, in each case, as necessary or advisable to verify the accuracy of the information in such registration statement and to conduct appropriate due diligence in connection therewith;

(i) notify the Participating Restricted Stockholders, promptly after the Company receives notice thereof, of the time when such registration statement has been declared effective or a supplement to any prospectus forming a part of such registration statement has been filed; and

(j) after such registration statement becomes effective, notify the Participating Restricted Stockholders of any request by the SEC that the Company amend or supplement such registration statement or prospectus.

4.5 Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of Company to take any action pursuant to this Article IV with respect to the Registrable Securities of any Restricted Stockholder that the Restricted Stockholder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding the Restricted Stockholder, the Registrable Securities held by the Restricted Stockholder, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as is reasonably required to effect the registration of the Restricted Stockholder’s Registrable Securities.

4.6 Expenses of Registration. All expenses (other than Selling Expenses) incurred in connection with registrations, including without limitation, those expenses for filings, or qualifications pursuant to Article IV, including all registration, filing, and qualification fees; printers’ and accounting fees; fees and expenses of compliance with securities laws or blue sky laws; and fees and disbursements of counsel for Company shall be borne and paid by Company; provided, however, that Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 4.1 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Participating Restricted Stockholders (in which case the Participating Restricted Stockholders shall bear such expenses), unless the Participating Restricted Stockholders agree to forfeit the right to one (1) registration pursuant to Section 4.1, as the case may be; provided further that if, at the time of such withdrawal, the Participating Restricted Stockholders have learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business, or prospects of Company from that known to the Participating Restricted Stockholders at the time of its request and has withdrawn the request with reasonable promptness after learning of such information, then the Participating Restricted Stockholders shall not be required to pay any of such expenses and shall not forfeit the right to one (1) registration pursuant to Section 4.1. All Selling Expenses relating to Registrable Securities registered pursuant to this Article IV shall be borne and paid by the Participating Restricted Stockholders.

4.7 Delay of Registration. No Restricted Stockholder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any registration pursuant to this Agreement as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Article IV.

4.8 Indemnification. If any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement under this Article IV:

(a) To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Participating Restricted Stockholders, and the Affiliates, Associates, partners, members, officers, directors, and stockholders of the Participating Restricted Stockholders; legal counsel and accountants for the Participating Restricted Stockholders; any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for the Participating Restricted Stockholders; and each Person, if any, who controls the Participating Restricted Stockholders or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any Damages, and Company will pay to each such Participating Restricted Stockholder, underwriter, controlling Person, or other aforementioned Person any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred thereby in connection with investigating or defending any Action or Proceeding from which Damages may result, as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 4.8(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Action or Proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the Company be liable for any Damages to the extent that they arise out of or are based upon actions or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of any such Participating Restricted Stockholder, underwriter, controlling Person, or other aforementioned Person expressly for use in connection with such registration.

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Participating Restricted Stockholder, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless Company, and each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement, each Person (if any), who controls Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, legal counsel and accountants for Company, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act), any other Person selling securities in such registration statement, and any controlling Person of any such underwriter or other selling Person, against any Damages, in each case only to the extent that such Damages arise out of or are based upon actions or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of such Participating Restricted Stockholder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and such Participating Restricted Stockholder will pay to Company and each other aforementioned Person any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred thereby in connection with investigating or defending any claim or proceeding from which Damages may result, as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 4.8(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim or proceeding if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Participating Restricted Stockholder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided further that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 4.8(b) exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Participating Restricted Stockholder (net of any Selling Expenses paid by such Participating Restricted Stockholder), except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such Participating Restricted Stockholder.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 4.8 of notice of the commencement of any Action or Proceeding (including any governmental Action or Proceeding) for which a party may be entitled to indemnification hereunder, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 4.8, give the indemnifying party notice of the commencement thereof. The indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in such Action or Proceeding and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, participate jointly with any other indemnifying party to which notice has been given, and to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties that may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one (1) separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such action. Failure to give notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 4.8, to the extent that such failure does not materially prejudice the indemnifying party’s ability to defend such action.

(d) Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, the foregoing indemnity agreements of Company and the Participating Restricted Stockholders are subject to the condition that, insofar as they relate to any Damages arising from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, or omission or alleged omission of a material fact from, a preliminary prospectus (or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading) that has been corrected in the form of prospectus included in the registration statement at the time it becomes effective, or any amendment or supplement thereto filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act (“Final Prospectus”), such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any Person if a copy of the Final Prospectus was furnished to the indemnified party and such indemnified party failed to deliver, at or before the confirmation of the sale of the shares registered in such offering, a copy of the Final Prospectus to the Person asserting the loss, liability, claim, or damage in any case in which such delivery was required by the Securities Act.

(e) To provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either (i) any party otherwise entitled to indemnification hereunder makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 4.8 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case, notwithstanding the fact that this Section 4.8 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any party hereto for which indemnification is provided under this Section 4.8, then, and in each such case, such parties will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of each of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the statements, omissions, or other actions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability, or expense, as well as to reflect any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact, or the omission or alleged omission of a material fact, relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, however, that, in any such case, (x) each Participating Restricted Stockholder will not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all Registrable Securities offered and sold by such Participating Restricted Stockholder pursuant to such registration statement except in the case of willful misconduct or fraud, and (y) no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation; and provided, further, that in no event shall such Participating Restricted Stockholder’s liability pursuant to this Section 4.8(e), when combined with the amounts paid or payable by such Participating Restricted Stockholder pursuant to Section 4.8(b), exceed the proceeds from the offering received by such Participating Restricted Stockholder (net of any Selling Expenses paid by such Participating Restricted Stockholder), except in the case of willful misconduct or fraud by such Participating Restricted Stockholder.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control.

(g) Unless otherwise superseded by an underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering, the obligations of Company and the Restricted Stockholders under this Section 4.8 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration under this Article IV, and otherwise shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

4.9 Reports Under Exchange Act. With a view to making available to the Restricted Stockholders the benefits of SEC Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Restricted Stockholders to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the Company shall:

(a) make and keep available adequate current public information, as those terms are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144;

(b) use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after the Company has become subject to such reporting requirements); and

(c) furnish to any Restricted Stockholder, so long as such Restricted Stockholder owns any Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request (i) to the extent accurate, a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144, the Securities Act, and the Exchange Act, or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form S-3 (at any time after Company so qualifies); (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of Company and such other reports and documents so filed by Company; and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing such Restricted Stockholder of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such securities without registration (at any time after the Company has become subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act) or pursuant to Form S-3 (at any time after Company so qualifies to use such form).

4.10 “Market Stand-off” Agreement. Each Restricted Stockholder hereby agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter(s), during the period commencing on the date of the final prospectus relating to a registration of equity securities of the Company under the Securities Act and ending on the date specified by the Company and the managing underwriter(s) (such period not to exceed (x) one hundred eighty (180) days, which period may be extended upon the request of the managing underwriter(s) for an additional period of up to fifteen (15) days if the Company issues or proposes to issue an earnings or other public release within fifteen (15) days of the expiration of the 180-day lockup period), Transfer any Shares or Capital Stock held immediately before the effective date of the registration statement for such offering. The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.10 shall not apply to the sale of any securities to an underwriter pursuant to an underwriting agreement. The underwriters in connection with such registration are intended third-party beneficiaries of this Section 4.10 and shall have the right, power, and authority to enforce the provisions hereof as though they were a party hereto. Each Restricted Stockholder further agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters in connection with such registration that are consistent with this Section 4.10 or that are necessary to give further effect thereto.

4.11 Addition of Third Party Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IV, in the event the Company grants to any third parties any rights to register their securities under the Securities Act (“Third Party Registrable Securities”), such rights may be granted by the Company on a pari passu basis with the rights granted to the Restricted Stockholders under this Agreement. Any such Third Party Registrable Securities may be included in any registration statement in which Registrable Securities are included on the same terms and conditions as set forth in this Article IV as if the Third Party Registrable Securities were Registrable Securities and the holders of the Third Party Registrable Securities were Restricted Stockholders, subject to customary provisions for pro rata participation, allocations and cutbacks of securities included any such registrations. Upon request by the Company, the Parties shall amend this Article IV to provide for such combined participation by holders of Third Party Registrable Securities or terminate the provisions of this Article IV and enter into a separate agreement providing for such combined participation.

4.12 Termination of Registration Rights. No Restricted Stockholder shall be entitled to exercise any right provided for in this Article IV after the earlier of (i) the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Effective Date; and (ii) such time as all Registrable Securities held by such Restricted Stockholder, together with its Affiliates, may be sold in a three (3)-month period without registration pursuant to SEC Rule 144, subject to the volume limitations contained in such rule. The registration rights granted to the Restricted Stockholders under this Article IV are personal to each Restricted Stockholder and may not be transferred or assigned to any subsequent holder of Registrable Securities, except that a permitted transferee of Registrable Securities that becomes a party to this Agreement as an additional Restricted Stockholder in accordance with Section 5.6 will be entitled to the registration rights under this Article IV with all other Restricted Stockholders (and other third parties holding registration rights as provided in Section 4.11), subject to customary provisions for pro rata participation, allocations and cutbacks of securities included any such registrations. Each Restricted Stockholder acknowledges that any request for registration under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement shall give rise to the right of first refusal set forth in Section 5.3, to the extent such right has not been previously terminated.

Article V

Transfer Restrictions

5.1 Restriction Under Securities Laws.

(a) Each Restricted Stockholder understands that Restricted Securities have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Restricted Stockholder’s representations and warranties made to Company. Each Restricted Stockholder understands that the Restricted Securities are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities Laws and that, pursuant to these Laws, each Restricted Stockholder must hold the Restricted Securities indefinitely unless they are registered with the SEC and qualified by state authorities or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. Each Restricted Stockholder acknowledges that Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Restricted Securities for resale except as set forth in this Agreement. Each Restricted Stockholder further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Restricted Securities, and on requirements relating to Company which are outside of the Restricted Stockholder’s or the Company’s control, and which Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.

(b) Before any proposed Transfer of any Restricted Securities by any Restricted Stockholder to a permitted purchaser, pledgee, assignee or transferee, unless there is in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the proposed transaction, such Restricted Stockholder shall give notice to Company of such Restricted Stockholder’s intention to effect such Transfer. Each such notice shall describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed sale, pledge, or transfer in sufficient detail. If at the time of the proposed Transfer of Restricted Securities no registration statement is in effect with respect to such shares under applicable provisions of the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws, such Restricted Stockholder hereby agrees that it will not Transfer all or any part of the Restricted Securities unless there shall be available exemptions from such registration requirements. Should there be any uncertainty or disagreement between Company and such Restricted Stockholder as to the availability of such exemptions, then such Restricted Stockholder shall be required to deliver to Company an opinion of counsel (skilled in securities matters, selected by such Restricted Stockholder and reasonably satisfactory to Company) in form and substance satisfactory to Company to the effect that such Transfer is in compliance with an available exemption under the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.

(c) In addition to the other restrictions set forth in this Article V, Restricted Securities may only be Transferred in compliance with the Company’s securities trading policies generally applicable to officers, directors or employees of the Company as long as any manager, officer, director or controlling Person of Restricted Stockholder is subject to such securities trading policy.

(d) Each Restricted Stockholder acknowledges that the United States securities Laws prohibit any person or entity from: (i) purchasing or selling a security, in breach of a fiduciary duty or other relationship of trust and confidence, while in possession of material, nonpublic information about the security, or (ii) tipping material nonpublic information in breach of such a fiduciary duty or other relationship. In addition, each Restricted Stockholder acknowledges that such Restricted Stockholder and any Affiliates of such Restricted Stockholder may be deemed “affiliates” of Company under applicable securities Laws, and if so, such Restricted Stockholder will be subject to additional restrictions on Transfers under applicable securities Laws by reason of such Restricted Stockholder’s status as an “affiliate” of the Company, which, among other things, may result in such Restricted Stockholder being deemed to be an underwriter or in possession of material, non-public information of Company. Each Restricted Stockholder agrees that it will not: (i) purchase or sell any security of Company while in possession of, or on the basis of, material, nonpublic information about those securities or Company (other than in connection with any purchase of Company securities direct from the Company with the consent of the Company), or (ii) tip material nonpublic information about the Company’s securities or Company in violation of the United States securities Laws. Each Restricted Stockholder further agrees to comply with all applicable securities Laws in connection with any Transfers of Restricted Securities that are otherwise permitted under this Article V.

5.2 No Transfers During Stock Restrictions Period.

(a) No Restricted Stockholder shall, without the prior written consent of the Company, Transfer any Restricted Securities to any Person during the Stock Restrictions Period; provided, however, that Transfers to Permitted Immediate Family Member Transferees shall be permitted during the Stock Restrictions Period, subject to compliance with the other provisions of this Article V except for Section 5.3.

(b) The restriction on Transfers set forth in Section 5.2(a) shall terminate upon the expiration of the Stock Restrictions Period.

5.3 Right of First Refusal.

(a) Prior to any intended Transfer of any Restricted Securities that is otherwise permitted by the provisions of this Article V, a Restricted Stockholder shall first give written notice (“Offer Notice”) to Company specifying (i) such Restricted Stockholder’s bona fide intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Restricted Securities, (ii) the name and address of the proposed purchaser(s) or transferee(s) and their beneficial owners (if different from the proposed purchaser(s) or transferee(s), (iii) the number of Restricted Securities the Restricted Stockholder proposes to sell (“Offered Securities”), (iv) the price for which such Restricted Stockholder proposes to sell the Offered Securities, and (v) all other material terms and conditions of the proposed sale or other transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such Restricted Stockholder proposes to Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to a Proposed Public Transfer, the name, address and price of the Offered Securities may not be applicable or available. In case of a Proposed Public Transfer under Rule 144, the Offer Notice shall include only the information specified in items (i), (iii) and (v) above, and in the case of a demand pursuant to Section 4.1 or request for registration pursuant to Section 4.2 such Restricted Stockholder’s demand or request will constitute its Offer Notice. In the case of any Proposed Public Transfer, the purchase price for purposes of this Section 5.3 will be the volume-weighted average closing price of the Common Stock (or the volume-weighted average closing price of the amount of Common Stock into which the Capital Stock is convertible) over the thirty 30 days preceding Restricted Stockholder’s delivery of the Offer Notice.

(b) Within the applicable Reply Period after receipt of the Offer Notice, Company or its nominee(s) may elect to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Offered Securities at the price and on the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice by delivery of written notice (“Acceptance Notice”) to such Restricted Stockholder. Within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Acceptance Notice to such Restricted Stockholder, Company and/or its nominee(s) shall deliver a check or wire transfer (or, at the discretion of Company, such other form of consideration set forth in the Offer Notice) in the amount of the purchase price of the Offered Securities to be purchased pursuant to this Section 5.3, against delivery by such Restricted Stockholder of a certificate or certificates representing the Offered Securities (or book-entry account transfer instructions) to be purchased, duly endorsed for transfer to Company or such nominee(s), as the case may be. If Company and/or its nominee(s) do not elect to purchase the Offered Securities, such Restricted Stockholder shall be entitled to sell the Offered Securities to the purchaser(s) named in the Offer Notice or in accordance with the Proposed Public Transfer at the price specified in the Offer Notice or at a higher price and substantially on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice, provided, however, that a private sale or a Proposed Public Transfer under Rule 144 must be consummated within sixty (60) days from the date of the earlier of (i) expiration of the applicable Reply Period for the Offer Notice and (ii) if applicable, the Company’s election not to exercise its right of first refusal, and any proposed sale after such sixty (60) day period may be made only by again complying with the procedures set forth in this Section 5.3; and provided, further, that a Proposed Public Transfer under Section 4.1 or 4.2 herein shall be conducted in accordance with the terms described in Article IV, and shall not be subject to the above sixty-day limitation.

(c) The right of first refusal set forth in this Section 5.3 shall terminate upon the later of (i) the expiration of the Stock Restrictions Period; and (ii) such time as the Restricted Stockholders and all of their Affiliates and Associates, individually and as a group, Beneficially Own less than 4.9% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock (including any amount of Common Stock into which any Capital Stock Beneficially Owned could, under any circumstance, be convertible).

5.4 Limitation on Number of Transfers of Restricted Securities. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the number of Restricted Securities that may be resold or otherwise Transferred to the public or through any public securities trading market at any time may not exceed the volume limitations contained in SEC Rule 144. The number of Restricted Securities that may be sold pursuant to a registered offering under Article IV of this Agreement shall be determined among the Company, the applicable Restricted Stockholder and the applicable underwriters in accordance with Article IV.

5.5 Restrictions Related to NOL Plan and Section 382 Compliance. No Restricted Stockholder will Transfer any Beneficial Ownership in any Shares or Capital Stock to any Person who the Restricted Stockholder reasonably believes after due inquiry Beneficially Owns or as a result of such transaction would Beneficially Own 4.9% or more of the Company’s then outstanding Common Stock (including any amount of Common Stock into which any Capital Stock Beneficially Owned could, under any circumstance, be convertible); provided, that the obligation of due inquiry set forth in this Section 5.5 shall not apply to any Proposed Public Transfer.

5.6 Permitted Transfers. Any permitted successor of any Restricted Stockholder, and any other permitted transferee of Restricted Securities pursuant to this Article V (other than transferees in Proposed Public Transfers), as a condition to such Transfer shall execute and become a party to this Agreement as an additional Restricted Stockholder, execute and deliver an Irrevocable Proxy with respect to the Restricted Securities Transferred to such permitted transferee or successor and hold the Restricted Securities subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement as if the permitted successor or other transferee were a Restricted Stockholder; provided, however, that (i) any Proposed Private Transfer Qualified Transferee shall not be subject to the Company’s right of repurchase under Article VII nor required to execute the Irrevocable Proxy under Article VI; and (ii) any Transfer to a Permitted Immediate Family Member Transferee will not be subject to the Company’s right of first refusal under Section 5.3 and such Transfer shall not be deemed to trigger a Repurchase Option Event for purposes of Article VII. Upon request by Company, the parties to this Agreement shall enter into such amendment or modifications to this Agreement as the Company may deem necessary to facilitate the inclusion of additional Restricted Stockholders as parties to this Agreement. No further Transfer of Restricted Securities may be made without complying with the provisions of this Agreement.

5.7 Transfers Pursuant to Certain Events.

(a) Provided that the Company has not elected to exercise its right of first refusal under Section 5.3 with respect to Restricted Securities proposed to be Transferred in a Proposed Public Transfer after the Stock Restrictions Period has ended, the right of first refusal set forth in Section 5.3 shall terminate, and the provisions of Section 5.6 shall not apply, as to such Restricted Securities on the date such Restricted Securities are sold pursuant to such Proposed Public Transfer.

(b) The restrictions on Transfers contained in this Article V shall not prohibit any Transfers of Shares or Capital Stock by Restricted Stockholder to the acquirer in connection with any Change in Control of the Company that has been approved by the Board and such Transfer is made in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Board-approved transaction agreement that provides for the Transfer of shares of Capital Stock of the Company to the acquirer by all holders of the Company’s Capital Stock on the same basis.

5.8 Termination of Remaining Restrictions. Any and all remaining restrictions on Transfers set forth in this Article V that have not already terminated or expired according to any other more specific terms herein shall terminate on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date, except that the provisions of Sections 5.1 and 5.5 shall remain in effect beyond such termination date for all proposed Transfers.

Article VI

Voting Proxy

6.1 Irrevocable Proxy. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Restricted Stockholder has executed and delivered an Irrevocable Proxy with respect to the Shares currently owned or to be acquired in the future upon conversion of other Restricted Securities.

6.2 Termination of Irrevocable Proxy. The Irrevocable Proxy granted in Section 6.1 shall terminate upon the later of (i) the expiration of the Stock Restrictions Period; and (ii) such time as the Restricted Stockholders and all of their Affiliates and Associates, individually and as a group, Beneficially Own less than 4.9% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock (including any amount of Common Stock into which any Capital Stock Beneficially Owned could, under any circumstance, be convertible). In addition, if not sooner terminated pursuant to the preceding sentence, the irrevocable proxy granted under Section 6.1 shall terminate (i) as to Restricted Securities proposed to be Transferred in a Proposed Public Transfer on the date such Restricted Securities are sold pursuant to such Proposed Public Transfer; (ii) as to Restricted Securities proposed to be Transferred to a Proposed Private Transfer Qualified Transferee, on the date such Restricted Securities are transferred to such Proposed Private Transfer Qualified Transferee; and (iii) as to all Restricted Securities on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date.

Article VII

Repurchase Option

7.1 Right to Repurchase. Effective immediately upon the occurrence of a Repurchase Option Event, Company shall have the right and option (but not the obligation) to purchase, all or part, of the Restricted Securities from any Restricted Stockholder that is the subject of the Repurchase Option Event (“Repurchase Option”). The purchase price for the Restricted Securities to be purchased under the Repurchase Option shall be the Fair Market Value determined as of the date of the occurrence of the applicable Repurchase Option Event.

7.2 Exercise of Repurchase Option. For ninety (90) days after the occurrence of a Repurchase Option Event (“Repurchase Option Exercise Period”), the Company shall have the right to exercise the Repurchase Option by giving to the applicable Restricted Stockholder written notice of such exercise, specifying the number of Restricted Securities to be repurchased by the Company and the aggregate purchase price thereof. Such notice shall be accompanied by the Company’s payment in immediately available funds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Repurchase Option Exercise Period shall be tolled until such time as the Restricted Stockholder that is the subject of the Repurchase Option Event provides notice of the occurrence of the Repurchase Option Event to the Company.

7.3 Termination of Repurchase Option. The Repurchase Option granted in this Article VII shall terminate upon the later of (i) the expiration of the Stock Restrictions Period; and (ii) such time as the Restricted Stockholders and all of their Affiliates and Associates, individually and as a group, Beneficially Own less than 4.9% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock (including any amount of Common Stock into which any Capital Stock Beneficially Owned could, under any circumstance, be convertible). In addition, the Repurchase Option granted under this Article VII shall terminate (i) as to Restricted Securities proposed to be Transferred in a Proposed Public Transfer on the date such Restricted Securities are sold pursuant to such Proposed Public Transfer; and (ii) as to Restricted Securities proposed to be Transferred to a Proposed Private Transfer Qualified Transferee, on the date such Restricted Securities are transferred to such Proposed Private Transfer Qualified Transferee.

The Restricted Stockholders and the Restricted Stockholder Directors acknowledge that the fiduciary duties of the Restricted Stockholder Directors are owed to the Company and all of its stockholders and not solely to the other Restricted Stockholders, and that conflicts or appearances of conflicts may arise, in which case they may be faced with a decision to abstain from participation in any matter that may result in a conflict or have the appearance of a conflict.

Article IX

Non-Competition and Other Restrictions

9.1 Non-Competition. Each Restricted Stockholder and each Designated Restricted Stockholder Affiliate covenants and agrees that, without the express written consent of the Company, it will not, nor will it cause or knowingly permit any of its Affiliates or Associates to, directly or indirectly engage in, invest in (either directly or indirectly, whether as an agent, stockholder, creditor, advisor, consultant or otherwise), operate or acquire any business in the world that competes with the Company Business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Restricted Stockholder, each Designated Restricted Stockholder and any of their respective Affiliates or Associates may (i) own, directly or indirectly, solely as an investment, securities of any corporation or other entity traded on any national securities exchange if neither Restricted Stockholder, any Designated Restricted Stockholder Affiliate nor any of their respective Affiliates or Associates do not, directly or indirectly, collectively own 5% or more of any class of securities of such corporation or other entity; or (ii) engage in, invest in or acquire any business that competes with the Company Business where (1) the adverse impact on the Company Business from such competing business is not material to the Company Business; or (2) the competing business is not the primary business of the third party company and the competing business is not the primary purpose for Restricted Stockholder, a Designated Restricted Stockholder Affiliate or any of their respective Affiliates or Associates engaging in, investing in or acquiring the third party.

9.2 Non-Interference. Without the prior written consent of Company, each Restricted Stockholder and each Designated Restricted Stockholder Affiliate will not, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each of their respective Affiliates and Associates to not, directly or indirectly, cause, induce, influence, encourage or solicit any material business relationship or any other customer, vendor or supplier of Company to terminate or modify in any respect any such relationship with Company.

9.3 Non-Solicitation. Without the prior written consent of Company, each Restricted Stockholder and each Designated Restricted Stockholder Affiliate will not, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each of their respective Affiliate and Associate to not, directly or indirectly, solicit for employment or hire or engage any employee or independent contractor of Company while such employee or independent contractor is employed or engaged by Company or any of its Affiliates or any employee or independent contractor who was employed or engaged by Company or any of its Affiliates within six (6) months prior to such time, or cause, induce, influence or encourage to terminate, reduce or modify any employee’s or independent contractor’s relationship with Company or any of its Affiliates while so employed or engaged. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Restricted Stockholder, Designated Restricted Stockholder Affiliate nor any of their respective Affiliates or Associates shall be deemed to have violated the covenants in this Section 9.3 (i) by publishing or running advertisements and general solicitations in or through any print, broadcast, internet, direct mail or other medium to generally solicit qualified job applicants to apply for employment opportunities within Restricted Stockholder, either Designated Restricted Stockholder Affiliate or any of their respective Affiliates or Associates and not specifically directed to any employee or independent contractor of Company or any of its Affiliates, (ii) hiring or engaging any employee or independent contractor of Company or any of its Affiliates who is terminated by Company or its Affiliates, provided that no breach of the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.3 has occurred with respect to such employee or independent contractor.

9.4 Restrictions Reasonable. The Parties acknowledge that the restrictions contained in this Article IX are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of Company and constitute a material inducement to Company to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that any covenant contained in this Article IX should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time, geographic, product or service or other limitations permitted by applicable Law in any jurisdiction, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant, and such covenant shall be deemed reformed, in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, product or service or other limitations permitted by applicable Law. The covenants contained in this Article IX and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

9.6 Several Liability. The liability of each Restricted Stockholder and each Designated Restricted Stockholder Affiliate for any breach of the provisions of this Article IX by one of them, but not the others, shall be limited solely to the breaching party, and not jointly with the non-breaching parties.

Article X

Confidentiality

10.1 Confidentiality Obligations. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Company, each Restricted Stockholder agrees (i) to keep all Confidential Information confidential and not to disclose or reveal any Confidential Information (or the fact that Confidential Information has been made available to Restricted Stockholder or its Representatives) to any Person other than the Representatives of Restricted Stockholder who are performing services for Restricted Stockholder directly or indirectly related to the management of Restricted Stockholder’s investment in Company and who have the need to know the Confidential Information for such purpose and who are subject to confidentiality obligations consistent with the obligations set forth in this Article X; and (ii) not to use Confidential Information for any purpose other than in connection with the management of its investment in Company and more specifically not to use Confidential Information to compete with Company.

Each Restricted Stockholder will be responsible for any breach of the terms of this Article X by any Representative of Restricted Stockholder.

10.2 Limitation on Confidentiality Obligations.

12.5 Choice of Law. This Agreement, its construction and the determination of any rights, duties or remedies of the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement will be governed by, enforced under and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws of such state.

12.6 Dispute Resolution.

(a) The parties consent to and agree that any dispute or claim arising hereunder shall be submitted to binding arbitration in New Castle County, Delaware, and conducted in accordance with the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service (“JAMS”) rules of practice then in effect or such other procedures as the parties may agree in writing, and the parties expressly waive any right they may otherwise have to cause any such action or preceding to be brought or tried elsewhere. The parties hereunder further agree that (i) any request for arbitration shall be made in writing and must be made within a reasonable time after the claim, dispute or other matter in question has arisen; provided however, that in no event shall the demand for arbitration be made after the date that institution of legal or equitable proceedings based on such claim, dispute, or other matter would be barred by the applicable statute(s) of limitations; (ii) the appointed arbitrator must be a former or retired judge or an attorney at law with at least ten (10) years’ experience in corporate law matters; (iii) costs and fees of the arbitrator shall be borne by both parties equally, unless the arbitrator or arbitrators determine otherwise; (iv) depositions may be taken and other discovery may be obtained during such arbitration proceedings to the same extent as authorized in civil judicial proceedings; and (v) the award or decision of the arbitrator, which may include equitable relief, shall be final and judgment may be entered on such award in accordance with applicable law in any court having jurisdiction over the matter.

(b) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH PARTY HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

(c) The parties acknowledge and agree that money damages may not be a sufficient remedy for a breach of certain provisions of the Agreement, and accordingly, a non-breaching party may be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief as remedies for such violation. Accordingly, notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 11.6, the parties agree that a non-breaching party may seek relief in the federal and state courts of the State of Delaware located in New Castle County for the purposes of seeking equitable relief hereunder, and that such remedies shall not be deemed to be exclusive remedies for a violation of the terms of the Agreement but shall be in addition to all other remedies available to the non-breaching party at law or in equity.

(d) In any action, arbitration, or other proceeding by which one party either seeks to enforce its rights under the Agreement, or seeks a declaration of any rights or obligations under the Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees, and subject to Section 11.6(a), reasonable costs and expenses incurred to resolve such dispute and to enforce any final judgment.

(e) No remedy conferred on either party by any of the specific provisions of this Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy will be cumulative and will be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise. The election of one or more remedies by a party will not constitute a waiver of the right to pursue other available remedies.

12.7 Severability. Each term, covenant, condition, or provision of this Agreement will be viewed as separate and distinct, and in the event that any such term, covenant, condition or provision will be deemed to be invalid or unenforceable, the arbitrator or court finding such invalidity or unenforceability will modify or reform this Agreement to give as much effect as possible to the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Any term or provision which cannot be so modified or reformed will be deleted and the remaining terms and provisions will continue in full force and effect.

12.8 Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to any Party under this Agreement, upon any breach or default of any other Party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power, or remedy of such nonbreaching or nondefaulting Party, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of or acquiescence to any such breach or default, or to any similar breach or default thereafter occurring, nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. All remedies, whether under this Agreement or by law or otherwise afforded to any Party, shall be cumulative and not alternative.

12.9 Further Assurances. Each party agrees to execute and deliver any and all further documents, and to perform such other acts, as may be reasonably necessary or expedient to carry out and make effective this Agreement.

12.10 Interpretation. Every provision of this Agreement is the result of full negotiations between the Parties, both of whom have either been represented by counsel throughout or otherwise been given an opportunity to seek the aid of counsel. Each Party hereto further agrees and acknowledges that it is sophisticated in legal affairs and has reviewed this Agreement in detail. Accordingly, no provision of this Agreement shall be construed in favor of or against any Party hereto by reason of the extent to which any such Party or its counsel participated in the drafting thereof. Captions and headings of sections contained in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not control the meaning, effect, or construction of this Agreement. Time periods used in this Agreement shall mean calendar periods (i.e., days, months, and years) in the State of California, USA unless otherwise expressly indicated. All references to fees, expenses, costs and payments thereof are U.S. Dollars. The English language shall apply to any interpretation of this Agreement.

12.11 Counterparts; Facsimile or PDF Signature. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original hereof and all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile or PDF signature by either party and such signature shall be deemed binding for all purposes hereof, without delivery of an original signature being thereafter required.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Autobytel Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company”), hereby agrees to sell upon the terms and on the conditions hereinafter set forth, but no later than 5:00 p.m., Pacific Time, on the Expiration Date (as hereinafter defined) to each of the persons listed on Schedule A hereto or registered assigns (each, a “Holder”), under the terms and at the Warrant Prices as hereinafter set forth, Holder’s pro rata portion (as set forth on Schedule A hereto) of One Hundred and Forty-Eight Thousand, Two Hundred and Forty (148,240) fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s Series B Junior Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Warrant Stock”), at a purchase price of One Hundred Eighty Four Dollars and Forty Seven Cents ($184.47) per share ("Warrant Price"), pursuant to this warrant (“Warrant”). The number of shares of Warrant Stock to be so issued and the Warrant Price are subject to adjustment in certain events as hereinafter set forth. The term “Series B Preferred Stock” shall mean, when used herein, unless the context otherwise requires, the Series B Junior Participating Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company and other securities and property at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant.

1. Exercise of Warrant.

(a) To the extent this Warrant becomes exercisable, the Holder may exercise this Warrant according to its terms prior to 5:00 p.m., Pacific Time, on the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Issuance Date by:

(i) completing the exercise form attached hereto (the “Exercise Notice”);

(ii) delivering the completed Exercise Notice and this Warrant to the Company at the address set forth in Section 9; and

(iii) paying to the Company an amount equal to (A) the number of shares of Warrant Stock in respect of which this Warrant is being exercised pursuant to this Section 1 multiplied by (B) the Warrant Price (“Aggregate Exercise Price”) in accordance with Section 1(b).

(b) Payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price shall be made by delivery to the Company of a certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Company, in the amount of such Aggregate Exercise Price.

(c) This Warrant shall become exercisable on the first date on or following the third anniversary of the Issuance Date, subject to the satisfaction of the following additional vesting conditions (“Secondary Vesting Conditions”): (i) with respect to the first one-third (1/3) of the Warrant Stock, if at any time after the Issuance Date and prior to the Expiration Date the weighted average closing price of the Company’s Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market (or if not then traded on such market or exchange, the principal market or exchange on which the Company’s Common Stock is then traded) for the preceding thirty (30) trading days (adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, reverse stock splits or combinations of Company’s Common Stock occurring after the Issuance Date) (“the Weighted Average Closing Price”) is at or above Thirty Dollars ($30.00); (ii) with respect to the second one-third (1/3) of the Warrant Stock, if at any time after the Issuance Date and prior to the Expiration Date the Weighted Average Closing Price is at or above Thirty-Seven Dollars and Fifty Cents ($37.50); and (iii) with respect to the last one-third (1/3) of the Warrant Stock, if at any time after the Issuance Date and prior to the Expiration Date the Weighted Average Closing Price is at or above Forty-Five Dollars ($45.00). Once a Secondary Vesting Condition has been satisfied, that Secondary Vesting Condition shall remain satisfied for the purposes of this Section 1(c) even if the Weighted Average Closing Price falls below the applicable required Weighted Average Closing Price for that Secondary Vesting Condition after the applicable Secondary Vesting Condition has first been satisfied. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1(c), this Warrant shall become exercisable in full immediately upon the Company’s Board of Directors approving a liquidation, dissolution, winding up or Change in Control (as defined below) of the Company. The Company shall give Holder written notice of any such approval (subject to the next sentence) by the Company’s Board of Directors as promptly as practical thereafter and in any event at least ten (10) Business Days prior to such liquidation, dissolution, winding up or Change in Control. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 1(d), the Company may delay such notice (and the ten (10) Business Day time period set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall be reduced accordingly) (i) to the extent required by applicable law or the rules of any applicable securities exchange; (ii) if such notice would constitute the disclosure of material, non-public information; or (iii) if such notice would have a material adverse effect on the Company or the event requiring such notice. “Change in Control” means the first to occur of any of the following (in one transaction or a series of related transactions): (i) consummation of a sale of, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, (ii) any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), other than a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities of the Company under an employee benefit plan of the Company, becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 50% or more of (A) the outstanding equity securities of the Company or (B) the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities, or (iii) the Company is party to a consummated merger or consolidation which results in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto failing to continue to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving or another entity) at least fifty (50%) percent of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving or other entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation.

(d) Subject to the vesting restrictions set forth herein, this Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part so long as any exercise in part hereof (i) is for not less than fifty thousand (50,000) shares of Warrant Stock (which limitation will be appropriately and equitably adjusted consistent with any adjustments under Section 4 hereof); and (ii) would not involve the issuance of fractional shares of Warrant Stock.

(e) No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall pay cash in lieu of fractional shares based upon the fair market value of such fractional shares of Series B Preferred Stock (which shall be calculated based on (i) the closing price of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) on the exchange or market on which the Common Stock is then traded and (ii) the then-current number of shares of the Common Stock into which a share of Series B Preferred Stock would be convertible (notwithstanding any limitations on conversion) pursuant to the Certificate of Designations of Series B Preferred Stock) at the date of exercise of this Warrant.

(f) In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, the Warrant Stock so purchased shall be registered in the name of the Holder within a reasonable time after such rights shall have been so exercised. The person or entity in whose name the Warrant Stock is registered upon exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Warrant Stock immediately prior to the close of business on the date on which the completed Exercise Notice and the Warrant were delivered to the Company and payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price and any applicable taxes was made, irrespective of the date of registration of the Warrant Stock, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such Warrant Stock at the opening of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are open.

2. Restrictions on Disposition of Warrant and Warrant Stock.

(a) The Holder hereby acknowledges that (i) this Warrant and any Warrant Stock that may be acquired upon exercise of this Warrant pursuant hereto are, as of the date hereof, not registered: (A) under the Securities Act on the ground that the issuance of this Warrant is exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act as not involving any public offering or (B) under any applicable state securities law because the issuance of this Warrant does not involve any public offering and (ii) that the Company’s reliance on the Section 4(2) exemption of the Securities Act and under applicable state securities laws is predicated in part on the representations hereby made to the Company by the Holder. The Holder represents and warrants that the Holder is acquiring this Warrant and will acquire the Warrant Stock for investment for the Holder’s own account, with no present intention of reselling or otherwise distributing the same.

(b) If, at the time of issuance of Warrant Stock upon exercise of this Warrant, no registration statement is in effect with respect to such shares under applicable provisions of the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws, Holder hereby agrees that Holder will not sell, transfer, offer, pledge or hypothecate all or any part of the Warrant Stock unless and until Holder shall first have given notice to the Company describing such sale, transfer, offer, pledge or hypothecation and there shall be available exemptions from such registration requirements that exist. Should there be any uncertainty or disagreement between the Company and the Holder as to the availability of such exemptions, then the Holder shall be required to deliver to the Company an opinion of counsel (skilled in securities matters, selected by the Holder and reasonably satisfactory to the Company) in form and substance satisfactory to the Company to the effect that such offer, sale, transfer, pledge or hypothecation is in compliance with an available exemption under the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws. The Company may at its election require that the Holder provide the Company with written reconfirmation of the Holder’s investment intent as set forth in Section 2(a) with respect to the Warrant Stock. The Warrant Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall bear a legend reading substantially as follows:

(c) In addition to the foregoing restrictions, any Warrant Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant will be subject to additional restrictions on transfer, repurchase rights, and standstill provisions, set forth in the Stockholder Agreement. The Warrant Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall bear a legend reading substantially as follows:

“THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO AN AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCKHOLDER AGREEMENT DATED AS OF OCTOBER 1 2015, AS MAY BE AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, (A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST FROM THE COMPANY), AND BY ACCEPTING ANY INTEREST IN SUCH SECURITIES THE PERSON ACCEPTING SUCH INTEREST SHALL BE DEEMED TO AGREE TO AND SHALL BECOME BOUND BY ALL THE PROVISIONS OF THAT AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCKHOLDER AGREEMENT, INCLUDING CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER, REPURCHASE RIGHTS, STANDSTILL PROVISIONS AND VOTING ARRANGEMENTS, INCLUDING AN IRREVOCABLE PROXY, SET FORTH THEREIN.”

THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS OF AN AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER DATED AS OF OCTBER 1, 2015 (“MERGER AGREEMENT”) AND ARE SUBJECT TO VARIOUS RIGHTS OF OFFSET BY THE COMPANY UNDER THE MERGER AGREEMENT.

(d) This Warrant may not be assigned, pledged, sold or otherwise transferred except in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Stockholder Agreement applicable to Restricted Securities (as such term is defined therein). Any purported assignment prohibited by this Warrant shall be void.

(e) So long as the Warrant Stock remains subject to the foregoing restrictions, the Company may maintain appropriate “stop transfer” orders with respect to such securities represented thereby on its books and records and with its transfer agent.

3. Reservation of Shares. The Company hereby agrees, represents and warrants that at all times there shall be reserved for issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant such number of shares of its Series B Preferred Stock (or other securities subject to this Warrant from time to time) as shall be required for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant. The Company further agrees that all shares of Warrant Stock represented by this Warrant will be duly authorized and will, upon issuance and against payment of the Aggregate Exercise Price, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

4. Capital Adjustments. This Warrant is subject to the following further provisions:

(a) Recapitalization, Reclassification and Succession. If any recapitalization of the Company, reclassification of the Series B Preferred Stock, reorganization, split-off, spin-off, extraordinary dividend or distribution by the Company, merger or consolidation of the Company into or with a corporation or other business entity, sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or of any successor corporation’s assets to any other corporation or business entity (any such corporation or other business entity being included within the meaning of the term “successor corporation”), or any event similar to any of the foregoing, including a Change in Control, shall be effected, directly or indirectly, in one or a series of related transactions (any of the forging being an “Adjustment Event”), at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired, then, as a condition of such Adjustment Event, and, in any event, the Company agrees that lawful, equitable and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holder of this Warrant thereafter shall have the right to receive upon the exercise hereof, and in lieu of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant, such shares of capital stock, securities or other property as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange, in connection with the Adjustment Event, for a number of outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock equal to the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock immediately theretofore issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant, and in each such case, the terms of this Warrant shall be applicable to the shares of stock or other securities or property receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant after such consummation.

(b) Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If the Company at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or combine its Series B Preferred Stock, the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the Warrant Price shall be proportionately and equitably adjusted so as to prevent the enlargement or dilution of economic rights under this Warrant.

(c) Stock Dividends and Distributions. If the Company at any time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall issue or pay the holders of its Series B Preferred Stock, or take a record of the holders of its Series B Preferred Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive, a dividend payable in, or other distribution of, Series B Preferred Stock (and/or other equity of the Company), then (i) the Warrant Price shall be adjusted in accordance with Section 4(d); and (ii) the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted to the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock (and/or other equity of the Company) that Holder would have owned immediately following such action had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto.

(d) Warrant Price Adjustment. Whenever the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant is adjusted, as herein provided, the Warrant Price payable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately and equitably adjusted.

(e) Certain Shares Excluded. The number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding at any given time for purposes of the adjustments set forth in this Section 4 shall exclude any shares then held in the treasury of the Company.

5. Notice To Holders.

(a) Notice of Record Date. Without limiting Section 1(d), in case:

(i) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Series B Preferred Stock (or other stock or securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend (other than a cash dividend payable out of earned surplus of the Company) or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of stock of any class or any other securities;

(ii) any Adjustment Event; or

(iii) approval by the Company’s Board of Directors of any dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company;

then, and in each such case, subject to the last sentence of Section 5(b), the Company will mail or cause to be mailed to the Holder hereof a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, or (ii) the date on which such Adjustment Event is to take place, and the time, if any and if applicable, is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of Series B Preferred Stock (or such stock or securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Series B Preferred Stock (or such other stock or securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such Adjustment Event. Such notice shall be mailed at least 15 days prior to the record date therein specified; provided, however, failure to provide any such notice shall not affect the validity of such transaction; provided, further, that the Company or its successor shall in no way be relieved of any liability for damages caused to the Holder caused by such failure to give the required notice. In the event that this Warrant is to become exercisable on an accelerated basis in connection with any event described in this Section 5(a), the Company shall afford the Holder fair opportunity to exercise the Warrant effective immediately prior to such event.

(b) Notice of Adjustment. Whenever any adjustment shall be made pursuant to Section 4 hereof, the Company shall promptly notify the Holder of this Warrant of the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated and the Warrant Price and number of shares of Warrant Stock purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant after giving effect to such adjustment. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5(a) and Section 5(b), the Company may delay such notice (and the 15-day time period set forth in Section 5(a) shall be reduced accordingly) to the extent required by applicable law or the rules of any applicable securities exchange or if such notice would have an adverse effect on the event requiring such adjustment.

6. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the ownership and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity satisfactory to the Company and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof, the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor dated the date hereof.

7. Warrant Holder not a Stockholder. Without limiting rights of the Holder in respect of any shares of stock of the Company or other securities owned by the Holder, the Holder of this Warrant shall not be entitled by reason of holding this Warrant to any rights whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company.

8. Setoff. This Warrant, and the Series B Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, are subject to reduction and setoff as provided in, and in accordance with, the Merger Agreement to secure claims thereunder.

THE INSTRUCTIONS CONTAINED WITHIN THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL SHOULD BE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL IS COMPLETED.

Delivery of this Letter of Transmittal to an address other than as set forth above will not constitute a valid delivery to the Acquiror.

You must sign this Letter of Transmittal in the appropriate space provided for below and complete and sign an IRS Form W-9 or an appropriate IRS Form W-8, as applicable.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

In accordance with the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of October 1, 2015, by and among Autobytel Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Acquiror”), New Horizon Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Acquiror (“Sub”), AutoWeb, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and José Vargas, an individual (the “Stockholder Representative”), the undersigned herewith surrenders the uncertificated Company Shares represented by book entry described below (each, a “Book-Entry Share”) that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company, shares of Series A Preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company or shares of Series B Preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Cancelled Shares”) in exchange for the right to receive a portion of the Merger Consideration, determined in accordance with the Merger Agreement. The holders of Cancelled Shares are collectively referred to herein as the “Stockholders”. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined have the meaning set forth in the Merger Agreement.

The undersigned acknowledges receipt of the Merger Agreement and hereby agrees to the provisions of the Merger Agreement in all respects and to be bound thereby, including, without limitation, (a) the obligations of the Stockholders to submit to cancellation of shares if required under Section 2.13 of the Merger Agreement (Post-Closing Adjustment of Merger Consideration) and (b) the obligations of the Stockholders to indemnify the Acquiror and certain other Persons as specified in Article V of the Merger Agreement. The undersigned hereby agrees to be bound by any properly executed amendment, extension or waiver to the Merger Agreement.

By executing this Letter of Transmittal, the undersigned hereby (i) irrevocably appoints and constitutes the Stockholder Representative (and any successor Stockholder Representative appointed in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement), as of the date of the Merger Agreement, as its agent, proxy and attorney-in-fact to the full extent specified in Section 2.14 of the Merger Agreement; (ii) agrees to be bound by all decisions and actions taken by the Stockholder Representative in accordance with the Merger Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements; (iii) adopts, ratifies, confirms and approves in all respects all such decisions and actions taken prior to the date hereof; and (iv) acknowledges and agrees to the limitations on the Stockholder Representative’s liability and duties and the Stockholder Representative’s right to indemnification set forth in Section 2.14 of the Merger Agreement. All authority conferred or agreed to be conferred pursuant to this Letter of Transmittal shall be irrevocable, except as provided in the Merger Agreement, and shall be binding upon the successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives of the undersigned, and shall not be affected by, and shall survive, the death, incapacity, bankruptcy, dissolution or liquidation of the undersigned.

The undersigned understands that surrender is not made in acceptable form until the receipt by the Acquiror of this Letter of Transmittal, duly completed and manually signed, together with all accompanying evidences of authority, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Acquiror. Because the Book-Entry Shares are not represented by physical certificates, surrender of the Book-Entry Shares is accomplished by delivery of a duly completed and manually signed Letter of Transmittal. The undersigned understands and agrees that the method of delivery of this Letter of Transmittal is at the election and risk of the undersigned.

The undersigned represents and warrants that the undersigned (i) has read and understands the Merger Agreement, (ii) has all necessary power and authority (whether corporate or otherwise) to execute and deliver this Letter of Transmittal and to perform its obligations hereunder; (iii) has validly executed and delivered this Letter of Transmittal, and this Letter of Transmittal constitutes the undersigned’s valid and binding obligation, enforceable against the undersigned in accordance with its terms; (iv) owns all of the Cancelled Shares represented by the Book-Entry Shares, free and clear of all Encumbrances; and (v) other than the Cancelled Shares represented by the Book-Entry Shares, the undersigned does not own any Cancelled Shares.

The undersigned hereby irrevocably (a) waives any and all right of appraisal, any dissenters rights and any similar rights relating to the Merger that the undersigned may have by virtue of, or with respect to, any Cancelled Shares owned by the undersigned (including those rights pursuant to Section 262 of the Delaware Law) and (b) withdraws all written objections to the Merger and demands for appraisal, if any, with respect to the Cancelled Shares, to the full extent permitted by law.

The undersigned, for himself, herself or itself and all of his, her or its constituent partners, officers, employees, agents and assigns and all persons or entities claiming under or through it or any of them (collectively, the “Releasors”), hereby releases, effective at the Effective Time, without the need for any further action, any and all claims, liabilities, obligations, promises, agreements, controversies, damages, actions, causes of action, suits, rights, demands, costs, losses, debts and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs incurred) of whatsoever kind or nature, whether at law or in equity, matured or unmatured, known or unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, for damages actual and consequential, contingent or liquidated or otherwise, past, present and future that he, she or it can, shall, or may have against the Company or the Acquiror or the surviving corporation, and all of the Company’s and the Acquiror’s past and present parent and subsidiary corporations and all of their respective officers, directors, employees, shareholders, agents and assigns (collectively, “Releasees”), arising from or relating to the business of the Company prior to and as of the Effective Time (the “Released Claims”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Released Claims” shall not include claims brought by Releasors with respect to (i) any claim related to employment with the Company or (ii) the performance of the obligations contemplated by the Merger Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or any other related agreement (including payment of the Merger Consideration to the extent specifically provided for therein). The undersigned, on behalf of himself, herself or itself and the Releasors, hereby irrevocably covenants to refrain, from and after the Effective Time, from, directly or indirectly, asserting any claim or demand, or commencing, instituting or causing to be commenced, any proceeding of any kind against any Releasee based on or arising from any of the Released Claims.

If the undersigned has previously executed a written consent with respect to the Merger, the undersigned hereby confirms all matters set forth in such written consent, including all matters which may have been referred to in such written consent and are re-affirmed in this Letter of Transmittal.

INSTRUCTIONS

(Forming a part of the terms and conditions of the transaction)

1. Method of Delivery. Your completed Letter of Transmittal, together with a completed IRS Form W-9 or appropriate IRS Form W-8, must be returned to the Acquiror at the address set forth on the front of this Letter of Transmittal. The documents may be sent by mail or overnight courier. The delivery of all documents is at the risk of the surrendering Stockholder, but if sent by mail, registered mail with return receipt requested and properly insured is recommended.

2. Form of Payment. Any cash in lieu of fractional shares owed to you as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement shall be sent by wire transfer directly into your account. If wire instructions are not provided, a check will be issued in the name of, and delivered to, the registered holder(s).

3. Signatures. The signature(s) required on the Letter of Transmittal must be the signature(s) of the holder(s) exactly as the name(s) appears on the stock records of the Company. If the Cancelled Share(s) surrendered hereby are owned by two or more joint owners, all such owners must sign this Letter of Transmittal. If any signature is made by a corporation or a person acting as executor, administrator, guardian, trustee or attorney-in-fact or in any other fiduciary or representative capacity, appropriate evidence of the authority of such person to assign, sell or transfer must be forwarded with the Letter of Transmittal. If any surrendered Cancelled Share(s) are registered in different names on the stock records of the Company, it will be necessary to complete, sign and submit as many separate Letters of Transmittal as there are different registrations.

4. Validity, Form and Eligibility. All questions as to validity, form and eligibility of any surrender of Book-Entry Share(s) hereunder by deliver of a duly completed and manually signed Letter of Transmittal will be determined by the Acquiror, and such determination shall be final and binding.

5. Backup Withholding.

In order to avoid backup withholding of U.S. federal income taxes with respect to payments made pursuant to the Merger, a Stockholder who is a “U.S. person” for federal income tax purposes must provide the Acquiror with such holder’s correct taxpayer identification number (“TIN”) on the IRS Form W-9 enclosed with this Letter of Transmittal and certify under penalties of perjury that such TIN is correct and that such Stockholder is not subject to backup withholding, or otherwise establish a basis for exemption from backup withholding. If such Stockholder is an individual, the TIN is generally his or her social security number. For more information, including which TIN to provide, consult the instructions to IRS Form W-9. A Stockholder who is not a “U.S. person” for federal income tax purposes must provide the Acquiror with an appropriate, properly completed IRS Form W-8. , Failure to provide the Acquiror with a properly completed IRS Form W-9 or IRS Form W-8 may result in penalties be imposed by the Internal Revenue Service, and reportable payments made pursuant to the Merger may be subject to backup withholding.

Certain Stockholders (including, among others, certain corporations and foreign individuals and entities) are not subject to these backup withholding requirements. In order to avoid erroneous backup withholding, exempt Stockholders who are “U.S. persons” for federal income tax purposes must indicate their exempt status on a properly completed IRS Form W-9. Exempt Stockholders who are not “U.S. persons” for federal income tax purposes must submit an appropriate, properly completed IRS Form W-8, signed under penalties of perjury, attesting to their exempt status. IRS Forms W-8 B can be obtained from the Acquiror or through the Internal Revenue Service website at www.irs.gov.

If backup withholding applies, the Acquiror is required to withhold a portion of all reportable payments made to the Stockholder or other payee pursuant to the Merger. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a credit against the Stockholder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

All Stockholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors to determine whether they are exempt from these backup withholding and reporting requirements and to determine which form should be used to avoid backup withholding.

Please note that the foregoing certifications do not exempt any holder from any compensation-related withholdings that may be required. Any payment of the Merger Consideration that is treated as wages for tax purposes will be subject to the withholding requirements that are applicable to wages, regardless of the submission of an IRS Form W-9 or IRS Form W-8.

Taxes withheld from amounts payable in connection with the Merger Agreement will be treated for all purposes of the Merger Agreement as having been paid to the persons with respect to whom such amounts were withheld. Certain Stockholders may be notified by Acquiror that they will be requested to pay withholding amounts to the Acquiror in exchange for receipt of the Merger Consideration.

6. Further Information. If you have any questions concerning the Letter of Transmittal you should contact Glenn Fuller of the Company at (949) 862-1392.

Form of FIRPTA Certificate

CERTIFICATION UNDER SECTION 1445 BY AUTOWEB, INC.

This certificate is being provided by AutoWeb, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in response to the request of Autobytel Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Acquiror”), in connection with the merger of New Horizon Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Acquiror, with and into the Company occurring on the date hereof (the “Merger”). Acquiror is authorized to mail a copy of this certificate together with the notice executed by the Company pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.897-2(h), to the Internal Revenue Service (the “Service”) after the closing of such acquisition.

To inform Acquiror that withholding of tax is not required under Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder in connection with the Merger, the undersigned hereby certifies the following on behalf of the Company:

1. This notice is provided pursuant to Treas. Reg. § 1.1445-2(c)(3) and § 1.897-2(h);

2. The Company has never been a “United States real property holding corporation,” as that term is defined in Section 897(c)(2) of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations, during the five-year period ending on the date hereof. Consequently, the capital stock, and options and other rights to acquire capital stock of the Company, do not constitute “United States real property interests,” as such term is defined in Section 897(c)(1) of the Code;

5. The Company’s office address is: _________________; and

6. The Company’s U.S. employer identification number is __________.

The Company understands that this certification may be disclosed to the Service by Acquiror 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 certification on behalf of the Company.
