16.                     RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL:

 

Except as permitted by this section, no stockholder holding shares of common stock of the Corporation (“Common Stock” and “Common Holder” respectively) shall sell, assign, pledge, or in any manner transfer (each, a “Transfer”) any Common Stock or any right or interest therein held by such Common Holder, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, or by gift or otherwise, except in compliance with following requirements:

 

16.1.           If the Common Holder receives a bona fide offer acceptable to the Common Holder to Transfer any Common Stock held by such Common Holder, then the Common Holder shall first give written notice thereof to the Corporation (a “Transfer Notice”). The notice shall name the proposed transferee and state the number of shares of Common Stock to be transferred (the “Transfer Stock”), the price per share and all other material terms and conditions of the offer.

 

16.2.           For fifteen (30) days following receipt of the Transfer Notice, the Corporation or its assigns shall have the option to purchase any or all of the Transfer Stock at the price and upon the terms set forth in such Transfer Notice. In the event the Corporation elects to purchase any or all of the Transfer Stock, it shall give written notice to the selling Common Holder of its election and settlement for said Common Stock shall be made as provided below in 5.6(c). The Corporation may assign its rights hereunder.

 

16.3.           If the Corporation or any assignee of the Corporation elects to acquire any of the Transfer Stock, the Corporation or such assignee shall so notify the selling Common Holder and settlement thereof shall be made within thirty (30) days after the Corporation receives the Transfer Notice; provided that if the consideration proposed to be paid for the Transfer Stock is in property, services or other non-cash consideration, the Corporation or such assignee may pay the cash value equivalent thereof (as determined in good faith by the Corporation’s Board of Directors) on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Transfer Notice.

 

16.4.           If the Corporation or its assignee does not elect to acquire all of the Transfer Stock, the selling Common Holder may, during the sixty (60) day period following the Corporation’s receipt of the Transfer Notice, sell all, but not less than all, of the Transfer Stock which was not acquired by the Corporation or its assignee, provided that said sale shall not be on terms or conditions more favorable to the purchaser than those contained in the bona fide offer set forth in the Transfer Notice. All Transfer Stock shall continue to be subject to the provisions of this Section 16 in the same manner as before said Transfer.

 

16.5.           Notwithstanding the above, the following transactions shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section 16:

e) In the case of a Common Holder that is an entity, upon a transfer by such Common Holder to any of its Affiliates (as hereinafter defined) or the stockholders, members, partners or other equity holders of it or its Affiliates. “Affiliate” as used herein shall mean any person or entity which, directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with such person or entity, including, without limitation, any partner, officer, director, or member of such person or entity and any venture capital fund now or hereafter existing which is controlled by or under common control with one or more general partners (or members thereof) or shares the same management company (or members thereof) with such person or entity;

 

f) In the case of a sale of shares of Common Stock to the public pursuant to a registration statement filed with, and declared effective by, the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended;

 

g) A Transfer of any or all of the shares of Common Stock of a Common Holder that are subject to an agreement to which the Corporation is a party, containing a contractual right of first refusal in favor of the Corporation and/or third parties (such agreement, a “ROFR Agreement”), provided that such Common Holder’s Transfer of shares is made in compliance with the terms of such ROFR Agreement.

 

16.6.           In any case of Transfer of Common Stock in accordance with Sub-Section (a) through (e) above the transferee, assignee, or other recipient shall receive and hold such Common Stock subject to the provisions of this Section 16, and there shall be no further Transfer of such Common Stock except in accordance with this Section 16.

COPIES OF SUCH DOCUMENTS MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE SECRETARY OF THE CORPORATION.”

The Corporation shall be entitled to treat the holder of record of any share or shares of stock as the holder in fact thereof and accordingly shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share on the part of any other person whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, save as expressly provided by the laws of Delaware.

22.                     NOTICES:

 

22.1.           Except as otherwise specifically provided herein or required by law, all notices required to be given to any stockholder, director, officer, employee or agent shall be in writing and may in every instance be effectively given by hand delivery to the recipient thereof, by depositing such notice in the mails, postage paid, or by sending such notice by facsimile telecommunication or electronic transmission. Any such notice shall be addressed to such stockholder, director, officer, employee or agent at his or her last known address as the same appears on the books of the Corporation. The time when such notice is received, if hand delivered, or when such notice is dispatched, if delivered through the mail, by facsimile telecommunication or electronic transmission, shall be the time of the giving of the notice.

 

22.2.           A written waiver of any notice, signed by a stockholder, director, officer, employee or agent, whether before or after the time of the event for which notice is to be given, shall be deemed equivalent to the notice required to be given to such stockholder, director, officer, employee or agent. Neither the business nor the purpose of any meeting need be specified in such a waiver.

 

23.                     AMENDMENT:

 

These By-Laws may be amended, altered, repealed or supplemented at any regular meeting of the stockholders or of the Board of Directors or at any special meeting called for that purpose, by affirmative vote of a majority of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote or of a majority of the whole board of directors, as the case may be.

 

24.                     INDEMNIFICATION:

 

24.1.           Right to Indemnification:

 

Each person who was or is a party to, or is threatened to be made a party to, or is involved in, any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (“Proceeding”), including without limitation Proceedings by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor, by reason of the fact that he or she or a person for whom he or she is the legal representative is or was a director or officer of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director or officer, employee or agent of another corporation, or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such Proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent authorized by the General Corporation Law of the State

 

8


 

of Delaware, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment) against all expenses, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith. Such right shall be a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation for expenses incurred in defending any such Proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however, that the payment of such expenses incurred by a director or officer of the Corporation in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such person while a director or officer, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding, shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it should be determined ultimately that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified under this section or otherwise.

 

24.2.           Right of Claimant to Bring Suit:

 

If a claim under Section 24.1 is not paid in full by the Corporation within sixty (60) days after a written claim has been received by the Corporation, the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim, and if successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking has been tendered to the Corporation) that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Corporation. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the claimant had not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that claimant had not met the applicable standard of conduct.

 

24.3.           Non-Exclusivity of Rights:

 

The rights conferred by Sections 24.1 and 24.2 shall not be exclusive of any other right which such person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

 

24.4.           Insurance:

 

The corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any such director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or another corporation,

 

9


 

partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any such expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
