PROPOSAL NO. 1

 

MERGER AGREEMENT OF TRULI MEDIA GROUP, INC., AN OKLAHOMA CORPORATION, WITH AND INTO TRULI MEDIA GROUP, INC., A DELAWARE CORPORATION

 

On December 19, 2014, the Board and a majority of the voting capital stock of the Company approved the reincorporation via a joint written consent in lieu of a special meeting of shareholders. The shareholders approved an Agreement and Plan of Merger, in substantially the same form annexed hereto as Appendix A (“Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company will merge with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Truli Media Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Truli Delaware) for the purpose of changing the state of incorporation of the Company to Delaware. Truli Delaware is anticipated to be formed immediately prior to the closing of the merger transaction. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company will be merged with and into Truli Delaware with Truli Delaware continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). Following the completion of the Merger, the Company’s corporate existence shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, the certificate of incorporation of Truli Delaware (“Certificate of Incorporation”), a substantially complete copy of which is included hereto as Appendix B , and the bylaws of Truli Delaware (“Bylaws”), a substantially complete copy of which is annexed hereto as Appendix C .

 

The proposed reincorporation will effect a change in the legal domicile of the Company and other changes of a legal nature, the most significant of which are described below. However, the reincorporation will not result in any change in the Company’s business, management, location of its principal executive offices, assets, liabilities or net worth (other than as a result of the costs incident to the reincorporation and Merger).

 

The surviving corporation will be Truli Delaware, which will be incorporated by the Company under the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”), exclusively for the purpose of merging with the Company. The authorized capital of Truli Delaware will consist of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Truli Delaware Common Stock”) and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 (“Truli Delaware Preferred Stock”).

 

Immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, Truli Delaware shall have one share of Truli Delaware Common Stock outstanding, which will be held by the Company. The terms of the Merger Agreement provide that the currently issued and outstanding shares of Truli Delaware will be cancelled. As a result, following the Merger, the Company’s current shareholders will be the only shareholders of Truli Delaware.

 

Filing of Certificate of Merger

 

The Company intends to file a certificate of merger with the Secretary of State of Oklahoma and Delaware when the actions taken by the Company’s Board and shareholders become effective, which will be at least 20 days from the mailing of this Information Statement to the shareholders of record on the Record Date.

Principal Reasons for Change of Domicile

 

The Company’s Board believes that the change of domicile will give the Company a greater measure of flexibility and simplicity in corporate governance than is available under Oklahoma law and will increase the marketability of the Company’s securities. The State of Delaware is recognized for adopting comprehensive modern and flexible corporate laws which are periodically revised to respond to the changing legal and business needs of corporations. For this reason, many major corporations have initially incorporated in Delaware or have changed their corporate domiciles to Delaware in a manner similar to that proposed by the Company. Consequently, the Delaware judiciary has become particularly familiar with corporate law matters and a substantial body of court decisions has developed construing Delaware law. Delaware corporate law, accordingly, has been, and is likely to continue to be, interpreted in many significant judicial decisions, a fact which may provide greater clarity and predictability with respect to the Company’s corporate legal affairs. For these reasons, the Company’s Board believes that the Company’s business and affairs can be conducted to better advantage if the Company is able to operate under Delaware law. See “Certain Significant Differences between the Corporation Laws of Delaware and Oklahoma.”

 

Principal Features of Merger and Reincorporation

 

The Reincorporation will be effected by the Merger of the Company, an Oklahoma corporation, with and into, Truli Delaware, a yet to be formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company that will be incorporated under the DGCL for the purpose of effecting the reincorporation. The reincorporation will become effective upon the filing of the requisite merger documents in Oklahoma and Delaware. Following the Merger, Truli Delaware will be the surviving corporation and will operate under the name “Truli Media Group, Inc.”

 

On the effective date of the Merger the outstanding share of Truli Delaware Common Stock to be held by the Company shall be retired and canceled and shall resume the status of authorized and unissued Truli Delaware Common Stock.

 

No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Truli Delaware Common Stock will be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Common Stock (see Proposal No. 2 “Reverse Stock Split of Common Shares”).

 

On the effective date of the Merger, the Company will be governed by the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws and the DGCL, which include a number of provisions that are not present in the Company’s current certificate of incorporation, the Company’s current bylaws or the Oklahoma General Corporation Act. Accordingly, as described below, a number of significant changes in stockholders’ rights will occur in connection with the reincorporation.

 

Upon consummation of the Merger and resulting reincorporation, the daily business operations of the Company will continue as they are presently conducted by the Company, at the Company’s principal executive offices at 515 Chalette Drive, Beverly Hills, CA 90210. The telephone number of Truli Delaware will remain that of the Company, which is (310) 274-0224. Truli Delaware’s sole officer will be Michael Jay Solomon, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer of the Company. The members of the Company’s Board will become the directors of Truli Delaware.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Merger may be abandoned by the Board and the directors of Truli Delaware at any time prior to the effective date of the Merger. In addition, the Board and directors of Truli Delaware may amend the Merger Agreement at any time prior to the effective date of the Merger provided that any amendment made may not, without approval by the shareholders of the Company who have consented in writing to approve the Merger, alter or change the amount or kind of Truli Delaware Common Stock to be received in exchange for or on conversion of all or any of the Common Stock, alter or change any term of the Certificate or Bylaws or alter or change any of the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement if such alteration or change would adversely affect the holders of our Common Stock.

 

Truli Delaware Share Certificates

 

Share certificates representing shares of the Company’s Common Stock before the Merger shall automatically be converted into shares of Truli Delaware Common Stock without further action required by any stockholder, subject to the terms of the reverse stock split as discussed in Proposal No. 2 below and as described further in the Merger Agreement. Failure by a shareholder of the Company to surrender certificates representing Common Stock will not affect such person’s rights as a stockholder, as such stockholder certificate representing Common Stock, following the reincorporation will represent the right to receive shares of Truli Delaware Common Stock.

Capitalization

 

The authorized capital of the Company, on the Record Date, consisted of 495,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. The authorized capital of Truli Delaware, which will be the authorized capital of the Company after the Merger, will consist of 100,000,000 shares of Truli Delaware Common Stock and 10,000,000 shares of Truli Delaware Preferred Stock.

 

After the Merger, and assuming the maximum reverse stock split as contemplated in Proposal No. 2 “Reverse Stock Split of Common Shares,” Truli Delaware will have outstanding approximately 2,553,646 shares of Truli Delaware Common Stock and 0 shares of Truli Delaware Preferred Stock. Furthermore, Truli Delaware will have outstanding approximately 93,760 options to purchase Truli Delaware Common Stock and 358,205 warrants to purchase Truli Delaware Common Stock. For a further discussion, see the section of Proposal No. 2 entitled “Effect of Reverse Stock Split.”

 

The board of directors of Truli Delaware may in the future authorize, without further shareholder approval, the issuance of such shares of Truli Delaware Common Stock or Truli Delaware Preferred Stock to such persons and for such consideration upon such terms as the board determines. Such issuance could result in significant dilution of the voting rights and, possibly, the stockholders’ equity, of then existing shareholders.

 

Certain Significant Differences Between Corporation Laws of Delaware and Oklahoma

 

The corporation laws of Oklahoma and Delaware differ in some respects. Although all the differences are not described in this Information Statement, the most significant differences, in the judgment of the Company, are summarized below. Shareholders should refer to the DGCL and the Oklahoma General Corporation Act to understand how these laws apply to the Truli Delaware and the Company, respectively.

 

Appraisal Rights .

 

Oklahoma Law Delaware Law

Under Oklahoma law, in the event of a merger or consolidation, stockholders who did not vote in favor of, or consent to the merger are, after compliance with statutory procedures, entitled to have a district court determine the fair value of their shares and to receive such fair value from the surviving company in exchange for their shares. However, stockholders are not entitled to appraisal rights if, the stockholder’s shares are (i) listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on an inter-dealer quotation system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., or (ii) held of record by more than 2,000 stockholders, unless the stockholders are required by the terms of the merger agreement to accept anything other than any one or a combination of the following:

 

● Shares of stock of the surviving corporation;

 

● shares of stock of any other corporation that will either not be listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., or held of record by more than two thousand holders; or

 

● Any cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts.

 

Under Delaware law, stockholders have no appraisal rights in the event of a merger or consolidation of the corporation if the stock of the Delaware corporation is listed on a national securities exchange or if such stock is held of record by more than 2,000 stockholders, or in the case of a merger in which a Delaware corporation is the surviving corporation, if:

 

● the agreement of merger does not amend the certificate of incorporation of the surviving corporation;

 

● each share of stock of the surviving corporation outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the merger is to be an identical outstanding share of the surviving corporation after the effective date of the merger; and

 

● the increase in the outstanding shares as a result of the merger does not exceed 20% of the shares of the surviving corporation outstanding immediately prior to the merger.

  Even if appraisal rights would not otherwise be available under Delaware law in the cases described above, shareholders would still have appraisal rights if they are required by the terms of the agreement of merger or consolidation to accept for their stock anything other than:
   
  ● shares of stock of the surviving corporation;
   
  ● of any other corporation whose shares will be either listed on a national securities exchange; or
   
  ● held of record by more than 2,000 stockholders; cash in lieu of fractional shares; or
   
  ● a combination of such shares and cash.
   
  Otherwise, stockholders of a Delaware corporation have appraisal rights in consolidations and mergers.

Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger and Reincorporation

 

The Company believes that, for federal income tax purposes, no gain or loss will be recognized by the Company, Truli Delaware or the shareholders of the Company who receive Truli Delaware Common Stock for their Common Stock in connection with the Merger. You are urged to consult your own tax advisor as to the consequences of the Merger and reincorporation under all applicable tax laws.

 

Dissenter’s Rights of Appraisal

 

Under Oklahoma law, in the event of a merger or consolidation, stockholders who did not vote in favor of, or consent to the merger are, after compliance with statutory procedures, entitled to have a district court determine the fair value of their shares and to receive such fair value from the surviving company in exchange for their shares. However, stockholders are not entitled to appraisal rights if the stockholder’s shares are (i) listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on an inter-dealer quotation system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., or (ii) held of record by more than 2,000 stockholders, unless the stockholders are required by the terms of the Merger Agreement to accept anything other than any one or a combination of the following:

 

Shares of stock of the surviving corporation;

 

shares of stock of any other corporation that will either not be listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., or held of record by more than two thousand holders; or
   
Any cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts.

Accordingly, appraisal rights are available in connection with our Merger, and a summary of these procedures follows immediately below. The summary is qualified in its entirety by the text of the Oklahoma General Corporation Act describing these rights, a copy of which is annexed hereto as Appendix D to this Information Statement. All shareholders are urged to read the summary and the statute carefully. Failure to follow the procedures outlined therein can result in the loss of your appraisal right.

 

YOU ARE ENTITLED TO DISSENT FROM THE ACTIONS DESCRIBED IN THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT OR TO DEMAND APPRAISAL OF YOUR SHARES AS A RESULT OF SUCH ACTIONS

 

Exercise of Appraisal Rights

 

If the Merger is completed, our shareholders are entitled to appraisal   rights under Section 18-1091 of the Oklahoma General Corporation Act, provided that they comply with the conditions established by Section 18-1091.

 

The discussion below is not a complete summary regarding a Company shareholder’s appraisal rights under Oklahoma law and is qualified in its   entirety by reference to the text of the relevant provisions of Oklahoma law, which is annexed to this Information Statement as Appendix D . Shareholders intending to exercise appraisal rights should carefully review Appendix D . Failure to follow precisely any of the statutory procedures set forth therein may result in a termination or waiver of these rights. A record holder of shares of the Company’s capital stock who makes the demand described below with respect to such shares, who continuously is the record holder of such shares through the Merger, who otherwise complies with the statutory requirements of Section 18-1091 and who neither votes in favor of the merger nor consents thereto in writing will be entitled to an appraisal by the Oklahoma State Court, of the fair value of his, her or its shares of the Company’s Common Stock in lieu of the consideration that such shareholder would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to the Merger Agreement. All references in this summary of appraisal rights to a “shareholder” or “holders of shares of the Company’s capital stock” are to the record holder or holders of shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Except as described herein, shareholders of the Company will not be entitled to appraisal rights in connection with the Merger.

 

Under Section 18-1091, where a merger is to be submitted for approval at a meeting of shareholders, not fewer than 20 days prior to the meeting, a constituent corporation must notify each of the holders of its stock for whom appraisal rights are available that such appraisal rights are available and include in each such notice a copy of Section 18-1091. This Information Statement shall constitute such notice to the record holders of the Company’s capital stock.

 

Shareholders who desire to exercise their appraisal rights must satisfy all of the conditions of Section 18-1091. Those conditions include the following:

 

  · Shareholders electing to exercise appraisal rights must not vote “for” the adoption of the merger agreement. Voting “for” the adoption of the merger agreement will result in the waiver of appraisal rights.

 

  · A written demand for appraisal of shares must be filed with the Company before the effective date for the Merger Agreement described in the Information Statement. The written demand for appraisal should specify the shareholder’s name and mailing address, and that the shareholder is thereby demanding appraisal of his or her shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The written demand for appraisal of shares is separate from a vote against the Merger Agreement or an abstention from such vote. That is, failure to vote against, or abstain from voting on, the Merger will not satisfy your obligation to make a written demand for appraisal.

 

7
 

 

  · A demand for appraisal must be executed by or for the shareholder of record, fully and correctly, as such shareholder’s name appears on the stock certificate. If the shares are owned of record in a fiduciary capacity, such as by a trustee, guardian or custodian, this demand must be executed by or for the fiduciary. If the shares are owned by or for more than one person, as in a joint tenancy or tenancy in common, such demand must be executed by or for all joint owners. An authorized agent, including an agent for two or more joint owners, may execute the demand for appraisal for a shareholder of record. However, the agent must identify the record owner and expressly disclose the fact that, in exercising the demand, he is acting as agent for the record owner. A person having a beneficial interest in the Company’s capital stock held of record in the name of another person, such as a broker or nominee, must act promptly to cause the record holder to follow the steps summarized below in a timely manner to perfect whatever appraisal rights the beneficial owners may have.

 

  · A shareholder who elects to exercise appraisal rights should mail or deliver his, her or its written demand to Truli Media Group, Inc. 515 Chalette Drive, Beverly Hills, CA 90210.

 

Within 10 days after the date of the Merger, the Company must provide notice of the effective time of the Merger to all Company shareholders who have complied with Section 18-1091 and have not voted in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement.

 

Within 120 days after the effective time of the Merger, either Truli Delaware or any shareholder who has complied with the required conditions of Section 18-1091 may file a petition in the Oklahoma District Court, with a copy served on the Company in the case of a petition filed by a shareholder, demanding a determination of the fair value of the shares of all shareholders seeking to exercise appraisal rights. There is no present intent on the part of Truli Delaware to file an appraisal petition, and shareholders seeking to exercise appraisal rights should not assume that Truli Delaware will file such a petition or that Truli Delaware will initiate any negotiations with respect to the fair value of such shares. Accordingly, holders of the Company’s capital stock who desire to have their shares appraised should initiate any petitions necessary for the perfection of their appraisal rights within the time periods and in the manner prescribed in Section 18-1091.

 

Within 120 days after the effective time of the Merger, any shareholder who has satisfied the requirements of Section 18-1091 will be entitled, upon written request, to receive from the Company a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock not voting in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and with respect to which demands for appraisal were received by the Company and the aggregate number of holders of such shares. Such statement must be mailed within 10 days after the shareholder’s request has been received by the Company or within 10 days after the expiration of the period for the delivery of demands as described above, whichever is later.

 

If a petition for an appraisal is timely filed and a copy thereof is served upon the Company, then the Company will be obligated, within 20 days after service, to file in the office of the Oklahoma court a duly verified list containing the names and addresses of all shareholders who have demanded an appraisal of their shares and with whom agreements as to the value of their shares have not been reached. After notice to shareholders, as required by the Oklahoma Court, at the hearing on such petition, the Oklahoma Court will determine which shareholders are entitled to appraisal rights. The Oklahoma Court may require the shareholders who have demanded an appraisal for their shares and who hold stock represented by certificates to submit their certificates of stock to the Oklahoma Court for notation thereon of the pendency of the appraisal proceedings; and if any shareholder fails to comply with such direction, the Oklahoma Court may dismiss the proceedings as to such shareholder. Where proceedings are not dismissed, the Oklahoma Court will appraise the shares of the Company’s Common Stock owned by such shareholders, determining the fair value of such shares exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger, together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid upon the amount determined to be the fair value.

 

8
 

 

Although the Board of the Company believes that the Merger consideration is fair, no representation is made as to the outcome of the appraisal of fair value as determined by the Oklahoma Court, and shareholders should recognize that such an appraisal could result in a determination of a value higher or lower than, or the same as, the consideration they would receive pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Moreover, the Company does not anticipate offering more than the Merger consideration to any shareholder exercising appraisal rights and reserves the right to assert, in any appraisal proceeding, that, for purposes of Section 18-1091, the “fair value” of a share of the Company’s Common Stock is less than the Merger consideration. In determining “fair value,” the Oklahoma Court is required to take into account all relevant factors. The cost of the appraisal proceeding, which does not include attorneys’ or experts’ fees, may be determined by the Oklahoma Court and taxed against the dissenting stockholder and/or the Company as the Oklahoma Court deems equitable under the circumstances. Each dissenting shareholder is responsible for his or her attorneys’ and expert witness expenses, although, upon application of a dissenting shareholder, the Oklahoma Court may order that all or a portion of the expenses incurred by any dissenting shareholder in connection with the appraisal proceeding, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and the fees and expenses of experts, be charged pro rata against the value of all shares of stock entitled to appraisal.

  

Any shareholder who has duly demanded appraisal in compliance with Section 18-1091 will not, after the effective time of the Merger, be entitled to vote for any purpose any shares subject to such demand or to receive payment of dividends or other distributions on such shares, except for dividends or distributions payable to shareholders of record at a date prior to the effective time of the Merger.

 

At any time within 60 days after the effective time of the merger, any shareholder will have the right to withdraw his, her or its demand for appraisal and to accept the terms offered in the Merger Agreement. After this period, a shareholder may withdraw his, her or its demand for appraisal and receive payment for his, her or its shares as provided in the Merger Agreement only with the consent of the Company. If no petition for appraisal is filed with the court within 120 days after the effective time of the Merger, shareholders’ rights to appraisal, if available, will cease. Truli Delaware will have no obligation to file such a petition, any shareholder who desires a petition to be filed is advised to file it on a timely basis. Any shareholder may withdraw such shareholder’s demand for appraisal by delivering to the Company a written withdrawal of his, her or its demand for appraisal and acceptance of the Merger consideration, except (i) that any such attempt to withdraw made more than 60 days after the effective time of the Merger will require written approval of Truli Delaware and (ii) that no appraisal proceeding in the Oklahoma Court shall be dismissed as to any shareholder without the approval of the Oklahoma Court, and such approval may be conditioned upon such terms as the Oklahoma Court deems just.

 

Failure by any Company shareholder to comply fully with the procedures described above and set forth in Appendix D to this Information Statement may result in termination of such shareholder’s appraisal rights. In view of the complexity of exercising appraisal rights under Oklahoma law, any Company shareholder considering exercising these rights should consult with legal counsel.

General Information Regarding Reverse Stock Split

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company held by each shareholder of record on the effective date, will be reverse split on the basis that up to fifty (50) issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock will become one (1) issued and outstanding share of Truli Delaware Common Stock (“Reverse Stock Split”). The actual basis of the Reverse Stock Split may be less than fifty (50) for one (1) at the discretion of the Board at the time of the Merger.

 

Principal Reasons for Reverse Stock Split

 

The Board and shareholders of the Company believe that it is advisable and in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to effect the Reverse Stock Split in conjunction with the Merger in order to reduce the number of issued and outstanding shares of capital stock post-Merger. The Company believes that an increased market price of its stock post-Merger will encourage interest and trading in the stock. Due to the trading volatility often associated with low-priced stocks, many brokerage houses and institutional investors have internal policies and practices that either prohibit them from investing in low priced (sub-penny) stocks or tend to discourage individual brokers from recommending low-priced stocks to their customers. Some of those policies and practices may function to make the processing of trades in low-priced stocks economically unattractive to brokers. Additionally, because brokers’ commissions on low-priced stocks generally represent a higher percentage of the stock price than commissions on higher-priced stocks, the current average price per share of the common stock can result in individual shareholders paying transaction costs representing a higher percentage of their total share value than would be the case if the share price were substantially higher. It should be noted that the liquidity of the common stock may be adversely affected by the reverse split given the reduced number of shares that would be outstanding after the Reverse Stock Split. The Board anticipates, however, that the expected higher market price will reduce, to some extent, the negative effects on the liquidity and marketability of the stock inherent in some of the policies and practices of institutional investors and brokerage houses described above.

 

Effect of Reverse Stock Split

 

The Reverse Stock Split will affect all of our shareholders uniformly and will not affect any shareholder’s proportion voting power or percentage ownership interest of the Company, or Truli Delaware, subsequent to the Merger, except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split results in any of our shareholders owning a fractional of a share which shall be rounded up the next whole share as discussed below.

 

The Reverse Stock Split will not affect the number of shares of Truli Delaware Common Stock is authorized to issue, but will reduce the number of shares each Company shareholder held prior to the Merger. As of the Record Date, the Company was authorized to issue 495,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001. Of this amount, 127,682,295 shares of Common Stock are issued and outstanding.

 

Upon completion of the Merger, Truli Delaware will be authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of Truli Delaware Common Stock, par value $0.0001, and 10,000,000 shares of Truli Delaware Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001. Of this amount, it is estimated that (i) 2,553,646 shares of Truli Delaware Common Stock, (ii) options to purchase 93,670 shares of Truli Delaware Common Stock at an average exercise price of $6.86, and (iii) warrants to purchase 358,205 shares of Truli Delaware Common Stock at an average exercise price of $0.35 will be outstanding upon completion of the Reverse Stock Split assuming the maximum reverse split. The table below summarizes the foregoing information:

 

    Pre-Merger and Reverse Stock Split (1)(2)     Post-Merger and Reverse Stock Split (1)(2)  
Common Shares (3)            
       Issued and Outstanding     127,682,295       2,553,646  
       Common Stock Options     4,688,000       93,760  
       Common Stock Warrants     17,910,257       358,205

       Authorized     5,000,000       10,000,000  

 

(1) Number of Shares does not take into account convertible debt securities that may be converted into shares of common stock pre and post-Merger.
(2) Number of Shares does not take into account rounding up of fractional shares, if any.
(3) A total of 22,598,257 Options and Warrants are convertible into common stock pre-Merger at a weighted average exercise price of $0.03 per share.

Fractional Shares

 

No fractional shares of Truli Delaware Common Stock will be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, shareholders who otherwise would be entitled to receive fractional shares will be entitled to receive an additional share by rounding up to the nearest whole number of shares.

 

Potential Anti-Takeover Effects

 

The Reverse Stock Split and the Merger will have the effect of increasing the proportion of unissued authorized shares to issued shares.  Under certain circumstances this may have an anti-takeover effect.   These  authorized  but unissued  shares could be used by Truli Delaware (post-Merger) to oppose a hostile  takeover  attempt or to delay or prevent a change of control or changes in or removal of the board of  directors,  including a  transaction  that may be favored by a majority of our  shareholders  or in which our  shareholders  might receive a premium for their shares over then-current market prices or benefit in some other manner. For example, without further stockholder approval, the board of directors could issue and sell shares thereby diluting the stock ownership of a person seeking to effect a change in the composition of our board of directors or to propose or complete a tender offer or business combination involving us and potentially strategically placing shares with purchasers who would oppose such a change in the board of directors or such a transaction.

 

Although an increased proportion of unissued authorized shares to issued shares could, under certain circumstances, have a potential anti-takeover effect, the Merger and Reverse Stock Split are not in response to any effort of which we are aware to accumulate the shares of our Common Stock or obtain control of the Company.  There are no plans or proposals to adopt other provisions or enter into other arrangements that may have material anti-takeover consequences.

 

The Board does not intend for this transaction to be the first step in a series of plans or proposals of a “going private transaction” within the meaning of Rule 13e-3 of the Exchange Act. Moreover, we are currently not engaged in any negotiations or otherwise have no specific plans to use additional authorized shares of Truli Delaware, our surviving entity in the Merger and Reverse Stock Split, for any future acquisition, merger or consolidation.

 

PROPOSAL NO. 3

 

ADOPTION OF COMPANY’S 2014 EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN

 

On November 19, 2014, our Board, and on December 19, 2014, holders of a majority of the Common Stock of the Company approved the adoption of the Company’s 2014 equity compensation plan and form of grants (“Plan”), a copy of which is annexed hereto as Appendix E . Subsequent to the Merger, the Plan will be adopted by Truli Delaware pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement.

 

Summary of the Plan

 

The following summary of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by the specific language of the Plan:

 

General .

 

The Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, within the meaning of Section 422 of the United States Code, to our employees and nonstatutory stock options, restricted stock, performance units, performance shares, RSUs, and other stock based awards to our employees, directors, and consultants. The purpose of the Plan is to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility, to provide additional incentive to our employees, directors, and consultants and to promote the success of our business.

 

11
 

 

Common Stock Available Under the Plan .

 

As of the date of adoption of the Plan by the shareholders of the Company, there are 25,536,459 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to awards under the Plan. This number shall be adjusted appropriately pursuant to the terms of the Merger described herein.

 

If an award expires or is terminated or canceled without having been exercised or settled in full, or is forfeited back to or repurchased by us, the terminated portion of the award (or forfeited or repurchased shares subject to the award) will become available for future grant or sale under the Plan (unless the Plan has terminated). Shares are not deemed to be issued under the Plan with respect to any portion of an award that is settled in cash or to the extent such shares are withheld in satisfaction of tax withholding obligations. If the exercise or purchase price of an award is paid for through the tender of shares, or tax withholding obligations are met through the tender or withholding of shares, those shares tendered or withheld will again be available for issuance under the Plan. However, shares that have actually been transferred to a financial institution or other person or entity selected by the Plan administrator will not be returned to the Plan and will not be available for future distribution under the Plan.

 

Administration of the Plan .

 

Our Board, or one or more committees appointed by the Board, will administer our Plan (the “administrator”). The administrator has the power to determine the terms of the awards, including the exercise price (which may be changed by the administrator after the date of grant), the number of shares subject to each award (subject to the limits under the Plan), the exercisability of the awards and the form of consideration payable upon exercise. The administrator also has the power to implement an award exchange program, an award transfer program (whereby awards may be transferred to a financial institution or other person or entity selected by the Plan administrator), and a program through which participants may reduce cash compensation payable in exchange for awards, and to create other stock based awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to (or are otherwise based on) shares of our common stock (or the cash equivalent of such shares).

 

Eligibility .

 

Nonstatutory stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, performance units, performance shares, RSUs, and other stock based awards may be granted under the Plan to our employees, directors, and consultants. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees.

 

Limitations .

 

Section 162(m) of the Code places limits on the deductibility for federal income tax purposes of compensation paid to certain of our executive officers. In order to preserve our ability to deduct the compensation income associated with certain awards granted to such persons.

 

Options .

 

A stock option is the right to purchase shares of our Common Stock at a fixed exercise price for a fixed period of time. Each option is evidenced by a stock option agreement and is subject to the following terms and conditions:

 

Number of Options . The administrator will determine the number of shares granted to any eligible individual pursuant to a stock option.

 

Exercise Price . The administrator will determine the exercise price of options granted under our Plan at the time the options are granted, but with respect to nonstatutory stock options intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code and all incentive stock options, the exercise price generally must be at least equal to the fair market value of our Common Stock on the date of grant. The exercise price of an incentive stock option granted to a 10% stockholder may not be less than 110% of the fair market value on the date such option is granted. The fair market value of common stock generally is determined with reference to the closing sale price for our common stock (or the closing bid if no sales were reported) on the day the option is granted.

 

12
 

 

Exercise of Option; Form of Consideration . The administrator determines when options become exercisable, and may in its discretion, accelerate the vesting of any outstanding option. The means of payment for shares issued upon exercise of an option is specified in each option agreement. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan permits payment to be made by cash, check, promissory note, other shares of our Common Stock (with some restrictions), cashless exercises, a reduction in the amount of our liability to the participant, any combination of the prior methods of payment or any other form of consideration permitted by applicable law.

 

Term of Option . The term of stock options will be stated in the stock option agreement. However, the term of an incentive stock option may not exceed ten years, except that with respect to any participant who owns 10% of the voting power of all classes of our outstanding capital stock, the term must not exceed five years. No option may be exercised after the expiration of its term.

 

Termination of Service . After termination of service, an option holder may exercise his or her option for the period of time determined by the administrator and stated in the option agreement. In the absence of a time specified in a participant’s award agreement, a participant may exercise the option within three months of such termination, to the extent that the option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such option as set forth in the option agreement), unless such participant’s service terminates due to the participant’s death or disability, in which case the participant or, if the participant has died, the participant’s estate, beneficiary designated in accordance with the administrator’s requirements or the person who acquires the right to exercise the option by bequest or inheritance may exercise the option, to the extent the option was vested on the date of termination (or to the extent the vesting is accelerated upon the participant’s death), within one year from the date of such termination.

 

Nontransferability of Options . Unless otherwise determined by the administrator, options granted under the Plan are not transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and may be exercised during the optionee’s lifetime only by the optionee. However, the administrator may at any time implement an award transfer program (whereby awards may be transferred to a financial institution or other person or entity selected by the Plan administrator).

 

Restricted Stock .

 

Restricted stock awards are awards of shares of our Common Stock that vest in accordance with terms and conditions established by the administrator. The administrator may impose whatever conditions to vesting it determines to be appropriate including, if the administrator has determined it is desirable for the award to qualify as “performance-based compensation” for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code, that the restricted stock will vest based on the achievement of performance goals. Each award of restricted stock is evidenced by an award agreement specifying the terms and conditions of the award. The administrator will determine the number of shares of restricted stock granted to any employee. The administrator also determines the purchase price of any grants of restricted stock and, unless the administrator determines otherwise, shares that do not vest typically will be subject to forfeiture or to our right of repurchase, which we may exercise upon the voluntary or involuntary termination of the purchaser’s service with us for any reason including death or disability.

 

Restricted Stock Units .

 

Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) are awards of restricted stock, performance shares, or performance units that are paid out in installments or on a deferred basis. The administrator determines the terms and conditions of RSUs. Each RSU award will be evidenced by an award agreement that will specify terms and conditions as the administrator may determine in its sole discretion, including, without limitation whatever conditions to vesting it determines to be appropriate. As with awards of restricted stock, performance shares, and performance units, the administrator may set restrictions with respect to the RSUs based on the achievement of specific performance goals. The administrator also determines the number of shares granted pursuant to a RSU award.

 

13
 

 

Performance Shares and Performance Units .

 

Performance units and performance shares are awards that will result in a payment to a participant only if performance goals established by the administrator are achieved or the awards otherwise vest. The administrator will establish performance goals in its discretion, which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine the number and/or the value of performance units and performance shares to be paid out to participants. The performance goals may be based upon the achievement of company-wide, divisional, or individual goals (including solely continued service), applicable securities laws or other basis determined by the administrator. Payment for performance units and performance shares may be made in cash or in shares of our common stock with equivalent value, or in some combination, as determined by the administrator. Performance units will have an initial dollar value established by the administrator prior to the grant date. Performance shares will have an initial value equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the grant date. The administrator also determines the number of performance shares and performance units granted to any employee. Each performance unit and performance share is evidenced by an award agreement, and is subject to the terms and conditions determined by the administrator.

 

Other Stock Based Awards .

 

The administrator has the authority to create awards under the Plan in addition to those specifically described in the Plan. These awards must be valued in whole or in part by reference to, or must otherwise be based on, the shares of our common stock (or the cash equivalent of such shares). These awards may be granted either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with, other awards granted under the Plan and/or cash awards made outside the Plan. Each other stock based award will be evidenced by an award agreement that will specify terms and conditions as the administrator may determine.

 

Transferability of Awards .

 

Unless the administrator determines otherwise, our Plan does not allow for the transfer of awards other than by will, by the laws of descent and distribution, or pursuant to an award transfer program which the administrator has reserved the discretion to implement from time to time. Only the participant may exercise an award during his or her lifetime.

 

Performance Goals .

 

Under Section 162(m) of the Code, the annual compensation paid to the chief executive officer, the chief financial officer, and each of the other three most highly compensated executive officers, if and when applicable, (our named executive officers) may not be deductible to the extent it exceeds $1,000,000. However, we are able to preserve the deductibility of compensation in excess of $1,000,000 if the conditions of Section 162(m) of the Code are met. These conditions include stockholder approval of the Plan, setting limits on the number of awards that any individual may receive, and for awards other than options establishing performance criteria that must be met before the award actually will vest or be paid. The administrator (in its discretion) may make performance goals applicable to a participant. The performance goals may differ from participant to participant and from award to award. Any criteria used may be measured, as applicable, in absolute terms or in relative terms (including passage of time and/or against another company or companies), on a per-share basis, against the performance of the company as a whole or any segment of the company, and on a pre-tax or after-tax basis.

 

Adjustments upon Changes in Capitalization .

 

In the event that our stock changes by reason of any dividend (excluding an ordinary dividend) or other distribution, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of our securities, or other similar change in our capital structure, the administrator will make the adjustments to the number and class of shares of common stock subject to the Plan, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued to any individual in any fiscal year pursuant to awards, and the number, class, and price of shares of common stock subject to any outstanding award.

 

Adjustments upon Liquidation or Dissolution .

 

In the event of our liquidation or dissolution, any unexercised award will terminate. The administrator may, in its sole discretion, provide that each participant will have the right to exercise all or any part of the award, including shares as to which the award would not otherwise be exercisable.

 

14
 

 

Adjustments upon Merger or Change in Control .

 

Our Plan provides that in the event of a merger with or into another corporation or our “change in control,” including the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, the successor corporation will assume or substitute an equivalent award for each outstanding award. Unless determined otherwise by the administrator, any outstanding options not assumed or substituted for will be fully vested and exercisable, including as to shares that would not otherwise have been vested and exercisable, for a period of up to 15 days from the date of notice to the holder of such award. The option or stock appreciation right will terminate at the end of such period. Unless determined otherwise by the administrator, any restricted stock, performance shares, performance units, RSUs, or other stock based awards not assumed or substituted for will be fully vested as to all of the shares subject to the award, including shares which would not otherwise be vested. In the event an outside director is terminated immediately prior to or following a change in control, other than pursuant to a voluntary resignation, the awards he or she received under the Plan will fully vest and become immediately exercisable.

 

Amendment and Termination of Our Plan .

 

Our Plan will automatically terminate in 2016, unless we terminate it sooner. In addition, our board of directors has the authority to amend, suspend, or terminate our Plan provided it does not adversely affect any award previously granted under our Plan.

 

Plan Benefits

       

Except as set forth below, the amount and timing of awards granted under the Plan are determined in the sole discretion of the administrator and therefore cannot be determined in advance. The future awards that would be received under the Plan by executive officers and other employees are discretionary and are therefore not determinable at this time.

 

U.S. Federal Income Tax Information

 

Incentive Stock Options .

 

An optionee who is granted an incentive stock option does not recognize taxable income at the time the option is granted or upon its exercise, although the exercise is an adjustment item for alternative minimum tax purposes and may subject the optionee to the alternative minimum tax. Upon a disposition of the shares more than two years after grant of the option and one year after exercise of the option, any gain or loss is treated as long-term capital gain or loss. If these holding periods are not satisfied, the optionee recognizes ordinary income at the time of disposition equal to the difference between the exercise price and the lower of (i) the fair market value of the shares at the date of the option exercise, or (ii) the sale price of the shares. Any gain or loss recognized on such a premature disposition of the shares in excess of the amount treated as ordinary income is treated as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending on the holding period. Unless limited by Section 162(m) of the Code, we are generally entitled to a deduction in the same amount as the ordinary income recognized by the optionee.

 

Nonstatutory Stock Options .

 

An optionee does not recognize any taxable income at the time he or she is granted a nonstatutory stock option. Upon exercise, the optionee recognizes taxable income generally measured by the excess of the then fair market value of the shares over the exercise price. Any taxable income recognized in connection with an option exercise by an employee is subject to tax withholding. Unless limited by Section 162(m) of the Code, we are generally entitled to a deduction in the same amount as the ordinary income recognized by the optionee. Upon a disposition of such shares by the optionee, any difference between the sale price and the optionee’s exercise price, to the extent not recognized as taxable income as provided above, is treated as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending on the holding period.

 

15
 

 

Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares and Performance Units .

 

A participant generally will not have taxable income at the time an award of restricted stock and RSUs are granted. Instead, he or she will recognize ordinary income in the first taxable year in which his or her interest in the shares underlying the award becomes either (i) freely transferable, or (ii) no longer subject to substantial risk of forfeiture (e.g., vested). However, a holder of a restricted stock award may elect to recognize income at the time he or she receives the award in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares underlying the award less any amount paid for the shares on the date the award is granted.

 

Our Tax Impact from Awards .

 

We generally will be entitled to a tax deduction in connection with an award under the Plan in an amount equal to the ordinary income realized by a participant and at the time the participant recognizes such income (for example, the exercise of a nonstatutory stock option). Special rules limit the deductibility of compensation paid to our named executive officers. Under Section 162(m) of the Code, the annual compensation paid to named executive officers may not be deductible to the extent it exceeds $1,000,000. However, we can preserve the deductibility of certain compensation in excess of $1,000,000 if the conditions of Section 162(m) of the Code are met. These conditions include stockholder approval of the Plan and setting limits on the number of awards that any individual may receive per year. The Plan has been designed to permit the administrator to grant awards that qualify as performance-based for purposes of satisfying the conditions of Section 162(m) of the Code, which permits us to continue to receive a federal income tax deduction in connection with such awards.

 

THE FOREGOING IS ONLY A SUMMARY OF THE EFFECT OF U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAXATION WITH RESPECT TO THE GRANT AND EXERCISE OF AWARDS UNDER THE PLAN. IT DOES NOT PURPORT TO BE COMPLETE, AND DOES NOT DISCUSS THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF AN INDIVIDUAL’S DEATH OR THE PROVISIONS OF THE INCOME TAX LAWS OF ANY MUNICIPALITY, STATE OR FOREIGN COUNTRY IN WHICH ANY ELIGIBLE INDIVIDUAL MAY RESIDE.

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

 

OF

 

TRULI MEDIA GROUP, INC., AN OKLAHOMA CORPORATION

 

AND

 

TRULI MEDIA GROUP, INC., A DELAWARE CORPORATION

 

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (the " Agreement ") dated as of January [*] , 2015 made and entered into by and between Truli Media Group, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation (" Truli "), and Truli Media Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (" TMG "), which corporations are sometimes referred to herein as the " Constituent Corporations ."

 

W I T N E S S E T H:

 

WHEREAS, Truli is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Oklahoma, having been incorporated on July 28, 2008, under the laws of the State of Oklahoma under the name S.A. Recovery Corp under the Oklahoma General Corporation Act (the “ OGCA ”); and

 

WHEREAS, TMG is a wholly-owned subsidiary corporation of Truli, having been incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware under the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “ DGCL ”) on January [*] , 2015; and

MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS

 

2.1        PLACE OF MEETINGS.

 

Meetings of stockholders shall be held at any place within or outside the State of Delaware as designated by the Board. The Board may, in its sole discretion, determine that a meeting of stockholders shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication as authorized by Section 211(a)(2) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “ DGCL ”). In the absence of any such designation or determination, stockholders’ meetings shall be held at the corporation’s principal executive office.

 

2.2        ANNUAL MEETING.

 

The annual meeting of stockholders shall be held each year on a date and at a time designated by the Board.  At the annual meeting, directors shall be elected and any other proper business may be transacted.

Unless otherwise required by law or the Certificate, special meetings of the stockholders may be called at any time, for any purpose or purposes, only by (i) the Board, (ii) the Chairman of the Board, (iii) the chief executive officer (or, in the absence of a chief executive officer, the president) of the corporation, or (iv) holders of more than twenty percent (20%) of the total voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the corporation then entitled to vote.

No business may be transacted at such special meeting other than the business specified in the notice to stockholders of such meeting.

2.4        NOTICE OF STOCKHOLDERS’ MEETINGS.

 

All notices of meetings of stockholders shall be sent or otherwise given in accordance with either Section 2.5 or Section 8.1 of these bylaws not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting, except as otherwise required by applicable law. The notice shall specify the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting, the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Any previously scheduled meeting of stockholders may be postponed, and, unless the Certificate provides otherwise, any special meeting of the stockholders may be cancelled by resolution duly adopted by a majority of the Board members then in office upon public notice given prior to the date previously scheduled for such meeting of stockholders.

 

Whenever notice is required to be given, under the DGCL, the Certificate or these bylaws, to any person with whom communication is unlawful, the giving of such notice to such person shall not be required and there shall be no duty to apply to any governmental authority or agency for a license or permit to give such notice to such person. Any action or meeting which shall be taken or held without notice to any such person with whom communication is unlawful shall have the same force and effect as if such notice had been duly given. In the event that the action taken by the corporation is such as to require the filing of a certificate with the Secretary of State of Delaware, the certificate shall state, if such is the fact and if notice is required, that notice was given to all persons entitled to receive notice except such persons with whom communication is unlawful.

 

Whenever notice is required to be given, under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate or these bylaws, to any stockholder to whom (a) notice of two (2) consecutive annual meetings, or (b) all, and at least two (2) payments (if sent by first-class mail) of dividends or interest on securities during a twelve (12) month period, have been mailed addressed to such person at such person’s address as shown on the records of the corporation and have been returned undeliverable, the giving of such notice to such person shall not be required. Any action or meeting which shall be taken or held without notice to such person shall have the same force and effect as if such notice had been duly given. If any such person shall deliver to the corporation a written notice setting forth such person’s then current address, the requirement that notice be given to such person shall be reinstated. In the event that the action taken by the corporation is such as to require the filing of a certificate with the Secretary of State of Delaware, the certificate need not state that notice was not given to persons to whom notice was not required to be given pursuant to Section 230(b) of the DGCL.

 

The exception in subsection (a) of the above paragraph to the requirement that notice be given shall not be applicable to any notice returned as undeliverable if the notice was given by electronic transmission.

An affidavit of the secretary or an assistant secretary of the corporation or of the transfer agent or any other agent of the corporation that the notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be   prima facie   evidence of the facts stated therein.

 

Notice may be waived in accordance with Section 7.13 of these bylaws.

Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate or required by law, stockholders representing a one-third of the voting power of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the corporation, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at all meetings of the stockholders. If such quorum is not present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, then the chairman of the meeting, or the stockholders representing a majority of the voting power of the capital stock at the meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time until a quorum is present or represented. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum is present or represented, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally noticed. The stockholders present at a duly called meeting at which quorum is present may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum.

 

2.7        ADJOURNED MEETING; NOTICE

 

When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, unless these bylaws otherwise require, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time, place if any thereof, and the means of remote communications if any by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the continuation of the adjourned meeting, the corporation may transact any business that might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.4 and 2.5 of these bylaws.

 

2.8        ADMINISTRATION OF THE MEETING

 

Meetings of stockholders shall be presided over by the chairman of the Board or, in the absence thereof, by such person as the chairman of the Board shall appoint, or, in the absence thereof or in the event that the chairman shall fail to make such appointment, any officer of the corporation elected by the Board. In the absence of the secretary of the corporation, the secretary of the meeting shall be such person as the chairman of the meeting appoints.

 

The Board shall, in advance of any meeting of stockholders, appoint one (1) or more inspector(s), who may include individual(s) who serve the corporation in other capacities, including without limitation as officers, employees or agents, to act at the meeting of stockholders and make a written report thereof. The Board may designate one (1) or more persons as alternate inspector(s) to replace any inspector, who fails to act. If no inspector or alternate has been appointed or is able to act at a meeting of stockholders, the chairman of the meeting shall appoint one (1) or more inspector(s) to act at the meeting. Each inspector, before discharging his or her duties, shall take and sign an oath to faithfully execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his or her ability. The inspector(s) or alternate(s) shall have the duties prescribed pursuant to Section 231 of the DGCL or other applicable law.

 

The Board shall be entitled to make such rules or regulations for the conduct of meetings of stockholders as it shall deem necessary, appropriate or convenient. Subject to such rules and regulations, if any, the chairman of the meeting shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are necessary, appropriate or convenient for the proper conduct of the meeting, including without limitation establishing an agenda of business of the meeting, rules or regulations to maintain order, restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for commencement thereof and the fixing of the date and time of the opening and closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at a meeting (and shall announce such at the meeting).

 

2.9        VOTING.

 

The stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.11 of these bylaws, subject to Section 217 (relating to voting rights of fiduciaries, pledgors and joint owners of stock) and Section 218 (relating to voting trusts and other voting agreements) of the DGCL.

In all matters, other than the election of directors and except as otherwise required by law, the Certificate or these bylaws, the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders. Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the voting power of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors.

 

The stockholders of the corporation shall not have the right to cumulate their votes for the election of directors of the corporation.

 

2.10      STOCKHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT WITHOUT A MEETING.

 

Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of incorporation, any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the corporation by delivery to its registered office, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the corporation having custody of the book in which minutes of proceedings of stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the corporation's registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall, to the extent required by law, be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by holders representing a sufficient amount of shares to take the action were delivered to the corporation.

 

2.11      RECORD DATE FOR STOCKHOLDER NOTICE; VOTING; GIVING CONSENTS.

 

In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board may fix, in advance, a record date, which record date shall not precede the date on which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted and which shall not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting, nor more than sixty (60) days prior to any other such action.

 

If the Board does not fix a record date in accordance with these bylaws and applicable law:

 

  (i) The record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held.

 

  (ii) The record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board is necessary, shall be the first day on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the corporation.

Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy authorized by an instrument in writing or by a transmission permitted by law and filed with the secretary of the corporation, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three (3) years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period.

In the event that the corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then the list shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present.  If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting.

Transfers of stock shall be made only upon the transfer books of the corporation kept at an office of the corporation or by transfer agents designated to transfer shares of the stock of the corporation. Except where a certificate is issued in accordance with Section 7.5 of these bylaws, an outstanding certificate for the number of shares involved shall be surrendered for cancellation before a new certificate is issued therefore. Upon surrender to the corporation or the transfer agent of the corporation of a certificate for shares duly endorsed or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignation or authority to transfer, it shall be the duty of the corporation to issue a new certificate to the person entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate, and record the transaction in its books.

 

C- 16
 

 

7.11         STOCK TRANSFER AGREEMENTS.

 

The corporation shall have power to enter into and perform any agreement with any number of stockholders of any one or more classes or series of stock of the corporation to restrict the transfer of shares of stock of the corporation of any one or more classes or series owned by such stockholders in any manner not prohibited by the DGCL.

 

7.12       REGISTERED STOCKHOLDERS.

 

The corporation:

 

    (i) shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a person registered on its books as the owner of shares to receive dividends and to vote as such owner;

 

    (ii) shall be entitled to hold liable for calls and assessments on partly paid shares the person registered on its books as the owner of shares; and

 

    (iii) shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares on the part of another person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by the laws of Delaware.

 

7.13      WAIVER OF NOTICE.

 

Whenever notice is required to be given under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate or these bylaws, a written waiver, signed by the person entitled to notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time of the event for which notice is to be given, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting solely for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders need be specified in any written waiver of notice or any waiver by electronic transmission unless so required by the Certificate or these bylaws.

 

7.14     CHARITABLE FOUNDATION.

 

The establishment by the corporation of a charitable foundation will require Board approval, as will contributions by the corporation to the foundation and disbursements by the foundation. The Board may delegate authority over the foundation to one or more persons who are not directors of the corporation with the approval of two-thirds of the members of the Board.

 

ARTICLE VIII

NOTICE BY ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION

 

8.1      NOTICE BY ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION.

 

Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders pursuant to the DGCL, the Certificate or these bylaws, any notice to stockholders given by the corporation under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate or these bylaws shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder to whom the notice is given. Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice to the corporation. Any such consent shall be deemed revoked if:

 

  (i) the corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two consecutive notices given by the corporation in accordance with such consent; and

 

C- 17
 

 

  (ii) such inability becomes known to the secretary or an assistant secretary of the corporation or to the transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice.

 

However, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.

 

Any notice given pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall be deemed given:

 

  (i) if by facsimile telecommunication, when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice;

 

  (ii) if by electronic mail, when directed to an electronic mail address at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice;

 

  (iii) if by a posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specific posting, upon the later of (A) such posting and (B) the giving of such separate notice; and

 

  (iv) if by any other form of electronic transmission, when directed to the stockholder.

 

An affidavit of the secretary or an assistant secretary or of the transfer agent or other agent of the corporation that the notice has been given by a form of electronic transmission shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.

 

8.2           DEFINITION OF ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION.

 

An “electronic transmission” means any form of communication, not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved, and reviewed by a recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process.

 

8.3           INAPPLICABILITY.

 

Notice by a form of electronic transmission shall not apply to Section 164 (failure to pay for stock; remedies), Section 296 (adjudication of claims; appeal), Section 311 (revocation of voluntary dissolution), Section 312 (renewal, revival, extension and restoration of certificate of incorporation) or Section 324 (attachment of shares of stock) of the DGCL.

 

ARTICLE IX

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

 

9.1           POWER TO INDEMNIFY IN ACTIONS, SUITS OR PROCEEDINGS OTHER THAN THOSE BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE CORPORATION.

 

Subject to Section 9.3 of this Article IX, the corporation shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as now or hereafter in effect, any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that such person (or the legal representative of such person) is or was a director or officer of the corporation or any predecessor of the corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the corporation serving at the request of the corporation as a director or officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that such person’s conduct was unlawful.

 

C- 18
 

 

9.2           POWER TO INDEMNIFY IN ACTIONS, SUITS OR PROCEEDINGS BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE CORPORATION

 

Subject to Section 9.3 of this Article IX, the corporation shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as now or hereafter in effect, any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person (or the legal representative of such person) is or was a director or officer of the corporation or any predecessor of the corporation, or is or was a director or officer of the corporation serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation; except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

 

9.3         AUTHORIZATION OF INDEMNIFICATION

 

Any indemnification under this Article IX (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director or officer is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 of this Article IX, as the case may be. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination, (i) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (ii) by a committee of such directors designated by a majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (iii) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion or (iv) by the stockholders (but only if a majority of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, if they constitute a quorum of the board of directors, presents the issue of entitlement to indemnification to the stockholders for their determination). Such determination shall be made, with respect to former directors and officers, by any person or persons having the authority to act on the matter on behalf of the corporation. To the extent, however, that a present or former director or officer of the corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding described above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith, without the necessity of authorization in the specific case.

 

9.4         GOOD FAITH DEFINED

 

For purposes of any determination under Section 9.3 of this Article IX, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, a person shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful, if such person’s action is based on the records or books of account of the corporation or another enterprise, or on information supplied to such person by the officers of the corporation or another enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the corporation or another enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the corporation or another enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the corporation or another enterprise. The term “another enterprise” as used in this Section 9.4 shall mean any other corporation or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise of which such person is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent. The provisions of this Section 9.4 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the circumstances in which a person may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 9.1 or 9.2 of this Article IX, as the case may be.

 

C- 19
 

 

9.5           INDEMNIFICATION BY A COURT

 

Notwithstanding any contrary determination in the specific case under Section 9.3 of this Article IX, and notwithstanding the absence of any determination thereunder, any director or officer may apply to the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware for indemnification to the extent otherwise permissible under Sections 9.1 and 9.2 of this Article IX. The basis of such indemnification by a court shall be a determination by such court that indemnification of the director or officer is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standards of conduct set forth in Section 9.1 or 9.2 of this Article IX, as the case may be. Neither a contrary determination in the specific case under Section 9.3 of this Article IX nor the absence of any determination thereunder shall be a defense to such application or create a presumption that the director or officer seeking indemnification has not met any applicable standard of conduct. Notice of any application for indemnification pursuant to this Section 9.5 shall be given to the corporation promptly upon the filing of such application. If successful, in whole or in part, the director or officer seeking indemnification shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such application.

 

9.6           EXPENSES PAYABLE IN ADVANCE

 

To the fullest extent not prohibited by the DGCL, or by any other applicable law, expenses incurred by a person who is or was a director or officer in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding; provided, however, that if the DGCL requires, an advance of expenses incurred by any person in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity) shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this Article IX.

 

9.7           NONEXCLUSIVITY OF INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES

 

The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by or granted pursuant to this Article IX shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the Certificate, any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, it being the policy of the corporation that indemnification of the persons specified in Sections 9.1 and 9.2 of this Article IX shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law. The provisions of this Article IX shall not be deemed to preclude the indemnification of any person who is not specified in Section 9.1 or 9.2 of this Article IX but whom the corporation has the power or obligation to indemnify under the provisions of the DGCL, or otherwise. The corporation is specifically authorized to enter into individual contracts with any or all of its directors, officers, employees or agents respecting indemnification and advances, to the fullest extent not prohibited by the DGCL, or by any other applicable law.

 

9.8           INSURANCE

 

To the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL or any other applicable law, the corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power or the obligation to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of this Article IX.

 

C- 20
 

 

9.9           CERTAIN DEFINITIONS

 

For purposes of this Article IX, references to “the corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors or officers, so that any person who is or was a director or officer of such constituent corporation, or is or was a director or officer of such constituent corporation serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article IX with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued. For purposes of this Article IX, references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the corporation” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director or officer with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the corporation” as referred to in this Article IX.

 

9.10         SURVIVAL OF INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES

 

The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses conferred by this Article IX shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators and other personal and legal representatives of such a person.

 

9.11         LIMITATION ON INDEMNIFICATION

 

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article IX to the contrary, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification (which shall be governed by Section 9.5 hereof), the corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any director or officer in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the board of directors of the corporation.

 

9.12         INDEMNIFICATION OF EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS

 

The corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the board of directors, provide rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to employees and agents of the corporation similar to those conferred in this Article IX to directors and officers of the corporation.

 

9.13         EFFECT OF AMENDMENT OR REPEAL

 

Neither any amendment or repeal of any Section of this Article IX, nor the adoption of any provision of the Certificate or the bylaws inconsistent with this Article IX, shall adversely affect any right or protection of any director, officer, employee or other agent established pursuant to this Article IX existing at the time of such amendment, repeal or adoption of an inconsistent provision, including without limitation by eliminating or reducing the effect of this Article IX, for or in respect of any act, omission or other matter occurring, or any action or proceeding accruing or arising (or that, but for this Article IX, would accrue or arise), prior to such amendment, repeal or adoption of an inconsistent provision.

Appendix D

 

§18-1091. Appraisal rights.

 

APPRAISAL RIGHTS

 

A. Any shareholder of a corporation of this state who holds shares of stock on the date of the making of a demand pursuant to the provisions of subsection D of this section with respect to the shares, who continuously holds the shares through the effective date of the merger or consolidation, who has otherwise complied with the provisions of subsection D of this section and who has neither voted in favor of the merger or consolidation nor consented thereto in writing pursuant to the provisions of Section 1073 of this title shall be entitled to an appraisal by the district court of the fair value of the shares of stock under the circumstances described in subsections B and C of this section. As used in this section, the word “shareholder” means a holder of record of stock in a stock corporation and also a member of record of a nonstock corporation; the words “stock” and “share” mean and include what is ordinarily meant by those words and also membership or membership interest of a member of a nonstock corporation; and “depository receipt” means an instrument issued by a depository representing an interest in one or more shares, or fractions thereof, solely of stock of a corporation, which stock is deposited with the depository. The provisions of this subsection shall be effective only with respect to mergers or consolidations consummated pursuant to an agreement of merger or consolidation entered into after November 1, 1988.

 

B. 1. Except as otherwise provided for in this subsection, appraisal rights shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock of a constituent corporation in a merger or consolidation, or of the acquired corporation in a share acquisition, to be effected pursuant to the provisions of Section 1081, other than a merger effected pursuant to subsection G of Section 1081, and Section 1082, 1086, 1087, 1090.1 or 1090.2 of this title.

 

  2. a. No appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock which stock, or depository receipts in respect thereof, at the record date fixed to determine the shareholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the meeting of shareholders to act upon the agreement of merger or consolidation, were either:

 

(1) listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.; or

 

(2) held of record by more than two thousand holders.

 

No appraisal rights shall be available for any shares of stock of the constituent corporation surviving a merger if the merger did not require for its approval the vote of the shareholders of the surviving corporation as provided in subsection G of Section 1081 of this title.

 

b. In addition, no appraisal rights shall be available for any shares of stock, or depository receipts in respect thereof, of the constituent corporation surviving a merger if the merger did not require for its approval the vote of the shareholders of the surviving corporation as provided for in subsection F of Section 1081 of this title.

 

3. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 2 of this subsection, appraisal rights provided for in this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock of a constituent corporation if the holders thereof are required by the terms of an agreement of merger or consolidation pursuant to the provisions of Section 1081, 1082, 1086, 1087, 1090.1 or 1090.2 of this title to accept for the stock anything except:

 

a. shares of stock of the corporation surviving or resulting from the merger or consolidation or depository receipts thereof, or
     
b. shares of stock of any other corporation, or depository receipts in respect thereof, which shares of stock or depository receipts at the effective date of the merger or consolidation will be either listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or held of record by more than two thousand holders, or

 

D- 1
 

 

c. cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts described in subparagraphs a and b of this paragraph, or
     
d. any combination of the shares of stock, depository receipts, and cash in lieu of the fractional shares or depository receipts described in subparagraphs a, b, and c of this paragraph.

 

4. In the event all of the stock of a subsidiary Oklahoma corporation party to a merger effected pursuant to the provisions of Section 1083 of this title is not owned by the parent corporation immediately prior to the merger, appraisal rights shall be available for the shares of the subsidiary Oklahoma corporation.

 

C. Any corporation may provide in its certificate of incorporation that appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of its stock as a result of an amendment to its certificate of incorporation, any merger or consolidation in which the corporation is a constituent corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the corporation. If the certificate of incorporation contains such a provision, the procedures of this section, including those set forth in subsections D and E of this section, shall apply as nearly as is practicable.

 

D. Appraisal rights shall be perfected as follows:

 

1. If a proposed merger or consolidation for which appraisal rights are provided under this section is to be submitted for approval at a meeting of shareholders, the corporation, not less than twenty (20) days prior to the meeting, shall notify each of its shareholders entitled to appraisal rights that appraisal rights are available for any or all of the shares of the constituent corporations, and shall include in the notice a copy of this section. Each shareholder electing to demand the appraisal of the shares of the shareholder shall deliver to the corporation, before the taking of the vote on the merger or consolidation, a written demand for appraisal of the shares of the shareholder. The demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the corporation of the identity of the shareholder and that the shareholder intends thereby to demand the appraisal of the shares of the shareholder. A proxy or vote against the merger or consolidation shall not constitute such a demand. A shareholder electing to take such action must do so by a separate written demand as herein provided. Within ten (10) days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, the surviving or resulting corporation shall notify each shareholder of each constituent corporation who has complied with the provisions of this subsection and has not voted in favor of or consented to the merger or consolidation as of the date that the merger or consolidation has become effective; or

 

2. If the merger or consolidation is approved pursuant to the provisions of Section 1073 or 1083 of this title, either a constituent corporation before the effective date of the merger or consolidation or the surviving or resulting corporation within ten (10) days thereafter shall notify each of the holders of any class or series of stock of the constituent corporation who are entitled to appraisal rights of the approval of the merger or consolidation and that appraisal rights are available for any or all shares of such class or series of stock of the constituent corporation, and shall include in the notice a copy of this section. The notice may, and, if given on or after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, shall, also notify the shareholders of the effective date of the merger or consolidation. Any shareholder entitled to appraisal rights may, within twenty (20) days after the date of mailing of the notice, demand in writing from the surviving or resulting corporation the appraisal of the holder’s shares. The demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the corporation of the identity of the shareholder and that the shareholder intends to demand the appraisal of the holder’s shares. If the notice does not notify shareholders of the effective date of the merger or consolidation either:

 

  a. each constituent corporation shall send a second notice before the effective date of the merger or consolidation notifying each of the holders of any class or series of stock of the constituent corporation that are entitled to appraisal rights of the effective date of the merger or consolidation, or

 

D- 2
 

 

  b. the surviving or resulting corporation shall send a second notice to all holders on or within ten (10) days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation; provided, however, that if the second notice is sent more than twenty (20) days following the mailing of the first notice, the second notice need only be sent to each shareholder who is entitled to appraisal rights and who has demanded appraisal of the holder’s shares in accordance with this subsection. An affidavit of the secretary or assistant secretary or of the transfer agent of the corporation that is required to give either notice that the notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. For purposes of determining the shareholders entitled to receive either notice, each constituent corporation may fix, in advance, a record date that shall be not more than ten (10) days prior to the date the notice is given; provided, if the notice is given on or after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, the record date shall be the effective date. If no record date is fixed and the notice is given prior to the effective date, the record date shall be the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the notice is given.

 

E. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, the surviving or resulting corporation or any shareholder who has complied with the provisions of subsections A and D of this section and who is otherwise entitled to appraisal rights, may file a petition in district court demanding a determination of the value of the stock of all such shareholders; provided, however, at any time within sixty (60) days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, any shareholder shall have the right to withdraw the demand of the shareholder for appraisal and to accept the terms offered upon the merger or consolidation. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, any shareholder who has complied with the requirements of subsections A and D of this section, upon written request, shall be entitled to receive from the corporation surviving the merger or resulting from the consolidation a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares not voted in favor of the merger or consolidation and with respect to which demands for appraisal have been received and the aggregate number of holders of the shares. The written statement shall be mailed to the shareholder within ten (10) days after the shareholder’s written request for a statement is received by the surviving or resulting corporation or within ten (10) days after expiration of the period for delivery of demands for appraisal pursuant to the provisions of subsection D of this section, whichever is later.

 

F. Upon the filing of any such petition by a shareholder, service of a copy thereof shall be made upon the surviving or resulting corporation, which, within twenty (20) days after service, shall file, in the office of the court clerk of the district court in which the petition was filed, a duly verified list containing the names and addresses of all shareholders who have demanded payment for their shares and with whom agreements regarding the value of their shares have not been reached by the surviving or resulting corporation. If the petition shall be filed by the surviving or resulting corporation, the petition shall be accompanied by such duly verified list. The court clerk, if so ordered by the court, shall give notice of the time and place fixed for the hearing on the petition by registered or certified mail to the surviving or resulting corporation and to the shareholders shown on the list at the addresses therein stated. Notice shall also be given by one or more publications at least one (1) week before the day of the hearing, in a newspaper of general circulation published in the City of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, or other publication as the court deems advisable. The forms of the notices by mail and by publication shall be approved by the court, and the costs thereof shall be borne by the surviving or resulting corporation.

 

G. At the hearing on the petition, the court shall determine the shareholders who have complied with the provisions of this section and who have become entitled to appraisal rights. The court may require the shareholders who have demanded an appraisal of their shares and who hold stock represented by certificates to submit their certificates of stock to the court clerk for notation thereon of the pendency of the appraisal proceedings; and if any shareholder fails to comply with this direction, the court may dismiss the proceedings as to that shareholder.

 

D- 3
 

 

H. After determining the shareholders entitled to an appraisal, the court shall appraise the shares, determining their fair value exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger or consolidation, together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid upon the amount determined to be the fair value. In determining the fair value, the court shall take into account all relevant factors. In determining the fair rate of interest, the court may consider all relevant factors, including the rate of interest which the surviving or resulting corporation would have to pay to borrow money during the pendency of the proceeding. Upon application by the surviving or resulting corporation or by any shareholder entitled to participate in the appraisal proceeding, the court may, in its discretion, permit discovery or other pretrial proceedings and may proceed to trial upon the appraisal prior to the final determination of the shareholder entitled to an appraisal. Any shareholder whose name appears on the list filed by the surviving or resulting corporation pursuant to the provisions of subsection F of this section and who has submitted the certificates of stock of the shareholder to the court clerk, if required, may participate fully in all proceedings until it is finally determined that the shareholder is not entitled to appraisal rights pursuant to the provisions of this section.

 

I. The court shall direct the payment of the fair value of the shares, together with interest, if any, by the surviving or resulting corporation to the shareholders entitled thereto. Interest may be simple or compound, as the court may direct. Payment shall be made to each shareholder, in the case of holders of uncertificated stock immediately, and in the case of holders of shares represented by certificates upon the surrender to the corporation of the certificates representing the stock. The court’s decree may be enforced as other decrees in the district court may be enforced, whether the surviving or resulting corporation be a corporation of this state or of any other state.

 

J. The costs of the proceeding may be determined by the court and taxed upon the parties as the court deems equitable in the circumstances. Upon application of a shareholder, the court may order all or a portion of the expenses incurred by any shareholder in connection with the appraisal proceeding, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and the fees and expenses of experts, to be charged pro rata against the value of all of the shares entitled to an appraisal.

 

K.

L. The shares of the surviving or resulting corporation into which the shares of any objecting shareholders would have been converted had they assented to the merger or consolidation shall have the status of authorized and unissued shares of the surviving or resulting corporation.

6.              Limitations .

 

(a)            ISO $100,000 Rule . Each Option will be designated in the Award Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. However, notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by the Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such Options will be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For purposes of this Section 6(a), Incentive Stock Options will be taken into account in the order in which they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares will be determined as of the time the Option with respect to such Shares is granted.

 

(b)           No Rights as a Service Provider . Neither the Plan nor any Award shall confer upon a Participant any right with respect to continuing his or her relationship as a Service Provider, nor shall they interfere in any way with the right of the Participant or the right of the Company or its Parent or Subsidiaries to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause.

 

(c)           162(m) Limitation . For purposes of qualifying Awards as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Administrator, in its discretion, may set restrictions based upon the achievement of Performance Goals. The Performance Goals shall be set by the Administrator on or before the latest date permissible to enable the Award to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. In granting Awards which are intended to qualify under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Administrator shall follow any procedures determined by it from time to time to be necessary or appropriate to ensure qualification of the Award under Section 162(m) of the Code (e.g., in determining the Performance Goals).

 

7.              Stock Options .

 

(a)            Term of Option . The term of each Option will be stated in the Award Agreement. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the term will be ten (10) years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement. Moreover, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Participant who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the Incentive Stock Option will be five (5) years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement.

 

E- 7
 

 

(b)            Option Exercise Price and Consideration .

 

(i)      Exercise Price . The per Share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to exercise of an Option will be determined by the Administrator, subject to the following:

 

(1)    In the case of an Incentive Stock Option

 

        (A)      granted to an Employee who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price will be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

 

        (B)      granted to any Employee other than an Employee described in paragraph (A) immediately above, the per Share exercise price will be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

 

(2)    In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option, the per Share exercise price will be determined by the Administrator. In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, the per Share exercise price will be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

 

(3)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, Incentive Stock Options may be granted with a per Share exercise price of less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant pursuant to a merger or other corporate transaction.

 

(ii)       Waiting Period and Exercise Dates . At the time an Option is granted, the Administrator will fix the period within which the Option may be exercised and will determine any conditions that must be satisfied before the Option may be exercised.

 

(c)           Form of Consideration . The Administrator will determine the acceptable form of consideration for exercising an Option, including the method of payment. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Administrator will determine the acceptable form of consideration at the time of grant.

(i)     cash;

(iii)   promissory note;

(vii)  any combination of the foregoing methods of payment; or

 

(viii) such other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of Shares to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws.

 

E- 8
 

 

(d)            Exercise of Option .

 

(i)      Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Stockholder . Any Option granted hereunder will be exercisable according to the terms of the Plan and at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.

 

An Option will be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (x) written or electronic notice of exercise (in accordance with the Award Agreement) from the person entitled to exercise the Option, and (y) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised. Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the Administrator and permitted by the Award Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of an Option will be issued in the name of the Participant or, if requested by the Participant, in the name of the Participant and his or her spouse. Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder will exist with respect to the Awarded Stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company will issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the Option is exercised. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Section 15 of the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement.

 

Exercising an Option in any manner will decrease the number of Shares thereafter available for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised.

 

(ii)     Termination of Relationship as a Service Provider . If a Participant ceases to be a Service Provider, other than upon the Participant’s death or Disability, the Participant may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Option will remain exercisable for three (3) months following the Participant’s termination. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if on the date of termination the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will revert to the Plan on the date one (1) month following the Participant’s termination. If after termination the Participant does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified by the Administrator, the Option will terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will revert to the Plan.

 

(iii)    Disability of Participant . If a Participant ceases to be a Service Provider as a result of the Participant’s Disability, the Participant may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement to the extent the Option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Option will remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following the Participant’s termination. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if on the date of termination the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will revert to the Plan on the date one (1) month following the Participant’s termination. If after termination the Participant does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option will terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will revert to the Plan.

 

(iv)   Death of Participant . If a Participant dies while a Service Provider, the Option may be exercised following the Participant’s death within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of death (but in no event may the option be exercised later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement), by the Participant’s designated beneficiary, provided such beneficiary has been designated prior to Participant’s death in a form acceptable to the Administrator. If no such beneficiary has been designated by the Participant, then such Option may be exercised by the personal representative of the Participant’s estate or by the person(s) to whom the Option is transferred pursuant to the Participant’s will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution. In the absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Option will remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following Participant’s death. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if at the time of death Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will immediately revert to the Plan on the date one (1) month following the Participant’s death. If the Option is not so exercised within the time specified herein, the Option will terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will revert to the Plan.

 

E- 9
 

 

(e)            Buyout Provisions . The Administrator may at any time offer to buy out for a payment in cash or Shares an Option previously granted based on such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the Participant at the time that such offer is made.

 

8.              Restricted Stock .

 

(a)            Grant of Restricted Stock . Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan, the Administrator, at any time and from time to time, may grant Shares of Restricted Stock to Service Providers in such amounts as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine. Subject to any restrictions specifically provided for in this Plan, the Administrator shall have complete discretion to determine (i) the number of Shares subject to a Restricted Stock award granted to any Participant, and (ii) the conditions, if any, that must be satisfied, which typically will be based principally or solely on continued provision of services but may include a performance-based component, upon which is conditioned the grant, vesting or issuance of Restricted Stock.

 

(b)           Restricted Stock Agreement .

Notwithstanding the preceding, the number of Shares subject to any Award always shall be a whole number.

 

(b)            Dissolution or Liquidation . In the event that any dividend (excluding an ordinary dividend) or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares or other securities of the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares occurs then the Administrator shall appropriately adjust the number and class of Shares which may be delivered under the Plan, the 162(m) annual share issuance limits under Section 6(c) of the Plan, and the number, class, and price of Shares subject to outstanding Awards.

(c)            Merger or Change in Control .

 

(i)      Stock Options and SARS . In the event of a merger or Change in Control, each outstanding Option and SAR shall be assumed or an equivalent option or SAR substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation. With respect to Options and SARs granted to an Outside Director that are assumed or substituted for, if immediately prior to or after the merger or Change in Control the Participant’s status as a Director or a director of the successor corporation, as applicable, is terminated other than upon a voluntary resignation by the Participant, then the Participant shall fully vest in and have the right to exercise such Options and SARs as to all of the Awarded Stock, including Shares as to which it would not otherwise be vested or exercisable. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, in the event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the Option or SAR, the Participant shall fully vest in and have the right to exercise the Option or SAR as to all of the Awarded Stock, including Shares as to which it would not otherwise be vested or exercisable. If an Option or SAR is not assumed or substituted in the event of a merger or Change in Control, the Administrator shall notify the Participant in writing or electronically that the Option or SAR shall be exercisable, to the extent vested, for a period of up to fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice, and the Option or SAR shall terminate upon the expiration of such period. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Option or SAR shall be considered assumed if, following the merger or Change in Control, the option or stock appreciation right confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share of Awarded Stock subject to the Option or SAR immediately prior to the merger or Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the merger or Change in Control by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the merger or Change in Control is not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Option or SAR, for each Share of Awarded Stock subject to the Option or SAR, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the merger or Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, an Award that vests, is earned or paid-out upon the satisfaction of one or more performance goals will not be considered assumed if the Company or its successor modifies any of such performance goals without the Participant’s consent; provided, however, a modification to such performance goals only to reflect the successor corporation’s post-merger or post-Change in Control corporate structure will not be deemed to invalidate an otherwise valid Award assumption.

 

E- 13
 

 

(ii)       Restricted Stock, Performance Shares, Performance Units, Restricted Stock Units and Other Stock Based Awards . In the event of a merger or Change in Control, each outstanding Restricted Stock, Performance Share, Performance Unit, Other Stock Based Award and Restricted Stock Unit awards shall be assumed or an equivalent Restricted Stock, Performance Share, Performance Unit, Other Stock Based Award and Restricted Stock Unit award substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation. With respect to Awards granted to an Outside Director that are assumed or substituted for, if immediately prior to or after the merger or Change in Control the Participant’s status as a Director or a director of the successor corporation, as applicable, is terminated other than upon a voluntary resignation by the Participant, then the Participant shall fully vest in such Awards, including Shares as to which it would not otherwise be vested. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, in the event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the Restricted Stock, Performance Share, Performance Unit, Other Stock Based Award or Restricted Stock Unit award, the Participant shall fully vest in the Restricted Stock, Performance Share, Performance Unit, Other Stock Based Award or Restricted Stock Unit including as to Shares which would not otherwise be vested. For the purposes of this paragraph, a Restricted Stock, Performance Share, Performance Unit, Other Stock Based Award and Restricted Stock Unit award shall be considered assumed if, following the merger or Change in Control, the award confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share subject to the Award immediately prior to the merger or Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the merger or Change in Control by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the merger or Change in Control is not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received, for each Share and each unit/right to acquire a Share subject to the Award, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the merger or Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, an Award that vests, is earned or paid-out upon the satisfaction of one or more performance goals will not be considered assumed if the Company or its successor modifies any of such performance goals without the Participant’s consent; provided, however, a modification to such performance goals only to reflect the successor corporation’s post-merger or post-Change in Control corporate structure will not be deemed to invalidate an otherwise valid Award assumption.

 

16.            Date of Grant . The date of grant of an Award will be, for all purposes, the date on which the Administrator makes the determination granting such Award, or such other later date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the determination will be provided to each Participant within a reasonable time after the date of such grant.

 

17.           Term of Plan . Subject to Section 22 of the Plan, the Plan will become effective upon its adoption by the Board. The Plan will continue in effect for a term ending on December 31, 2016 unless terminated earlier under Section 18 of the Plan.

 

18.           Amendment and Termination of the Plan .

 

(a)           Amendment and Termination . The Board may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Plan.

 

(b)           Stockholder Approval . The Company will obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Applicable Laws.

 

(c)           Effect of Amendment or Termination . Subject to Section 20 of the Plan, no amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan will impair the rights of any Participant, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Participant and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Participant and the Company. Termination of the Plan will not affect the Administrator’s ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Awards granted under the Plan prior to the date of such termination.

 

E- 14
 

 

19.            Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares .

 

(a)            Legal Compliance . Shares will not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Award unless the exercise of such Award and the issuance and delivery of such Shares will comply with Applicable Laws and will be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.

 

(b)           Investment Representations . As a condition to the exercise or receipt of an Award, the Company may require the person exercising or receiving such Award to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise or receipt that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required.

 

20.            Severability . Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan or an Award to the contrary, if any one or more of the provisions (or any part thereof) of this Plan or the Awards shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision shall be modified so as to make it valid, legal and enforceable, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions (or any part thereof) of the Plan or Award, as applicable, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

 

21.            Inability to Obtain Authority . The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, will relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority will not have been obtained.

 

22.            Stockholder Approval . The Plan will be subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months after the date the Plan is adopted. Such stockholder approval will be obtained in the manner and to the degree required under Applicable Laws.

Participant hereby appoints the Escrow Agent with full power of substitution, as Participant’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact with irrevocable power and authority in the name and on behalf of Participant to take any action and execute all documents and instruments, including, without limitation, stock powers which may be necessary to transfer the certificate or certificates evidencing such unvested Shares to the Company upon such termination of service.

 

6. Death of Participant . Any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under this Award Agreement will, if Participant is then deceased, be made to Participant’s designated beneficiary, or if no beneficiary survives Participant, the administrator or executor of Participant’s estate. Any such transferee must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.

 

7. Withholding of Taxes . Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Award Agreement, no certificate representing the Shares of Restricted Stock may be released from the escrow established pursuant to Section 2, unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Administrator) will have been made by Participant with respect to the payment of income, employment and other taxes which the Company determines must be withheld with respect to such Shares. The Administrator, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit Participant to satisfy such tax withholding obligation, in whole or in part (without limitation) by (a) paying cash, (b) electing to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld, (c) delivering to the Company already vested and owned Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld, or (d) selling a sufficient number of such Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant through such means as the Company may determine in its sole discretion (whether through a broker or otherwise) equal to the amount required to be withheld. To the extent determined appropriate by the Company in its discretion, it will have the right (but not the obligation) to satisfy any tax withholding obligations by reducing the number of Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant. If Participant fails to make satisfactory arrangements for the payment of any required tax withholding obligations hereunder at the time any applicable Shares otherwise are scheduled to vest pursuant to Sections 3 or 5, Participant will permanently forfeit such Shares and the Shares will be returned to the Company at no cost to the Company.

 

8. Rights as Stockholder . Neither Participant nor any person claiming under or through Participant will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares will have been issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to Participant or the Escrow Agent. Except as provided in Section 2, after such issuance, recordation and delivery, Participant will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares.

Name:   (“Participant”)
   
Address:    

 

The Participant has been granted Restricted Stock Units (“ RSUs ”). Each RSU represents the right to receive one Share, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (“ Agreement ”), as follows:

 

  Grant Number :  
 
 
       
  Date of Grant:  
 
 
       
  Vesting Commencement Date:  
 
 
       
  Number of RSUs:  
 
 

 

Vesting Schedule:

 

[______________], subject to the Participant continuing to be a Service Provider through each vesting date.

 

Resale Restrictions

 

[__________________________________]

 

II.     AGREEMENT

 

1.     Grant of the RSUs . As set forth in the Notice of Grant, the Company has granted the Participant RSUs. However, unless and until the RSUs will have vested, the Participant will have no right to the payment of any Shares subject thereto. Prior to actual payment of any Shares, such RSUs will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company.

 

2.     Vesting of RSUs . Subject to Section 4, the Participant will vest in the RSUs in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the Notice of Grant; provided, that, in the event Participant ceases to be a Service Provider, the Participant’s right to vest in the RSUs and to receive the Shares related thereto will terminate effective as of the date that Participant ceases to be a Service Provider and the Participant will have no further rights to such unvested RSUs or the related Shares.

 

3.     Issuance of Shares . No Shares shall be issued to the Participant prior to the date on which the RSUs vest. After any RSUs vest and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall promptly cause to be issued (either in book-entry form or otherwise) to the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiaries, as the case may be, Shares with respect to such vested RSUs. No fractional Shares shall be issued under this Agreement.

 

4.     Administrator Discretion; Leave of Absence . The Administrator, in its discretion, may accelerate the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the RSUs at any time, subject to the terms of the Plan. If so accelerated, such RSUs will be considered as having vested as of the date specified by the Administrator. [The Participant’s rights with respect to the RSU in the event of a leave of absence or a change in the Participant’s regularly scheduled hours of employment (other than a change due to termination of employment) will be affected in accordance with the Company’s applicable employment policies or the terms of any agreement between the Participant and the Participant’s employer with respect thereto.]

 

E- 25
 

 

5.     Death of Participant . Any distribution or delivery to be made to the Participant under this Agreement will, if the Participant is then deceased, be made to the administrator or executor of the Participant’s estate. Any such administrator or executor must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.

 

6.     Resale Restrictions . Any Shares issued to Participant may be subject to restrictions on resale as provided for in the Notice of Grant.

 

7.    Taxes.

 

(a)     Generally . The Participant is ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed in connection with the RSU, regardless of any action the Company or any of its Subsidiaries takes with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the RSU. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries makes any representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the grant or vesting of the RSU or the subsequent sale of Shares issuable pursuant to the RSU. The Company and its Subsidiaries do not commit and are under no obligation to structure the RSU to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s tax liability.

 

(b)      Payment of Withholding Taxes . Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no Shares will be issued to the Participant, unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Administrator) will have been made by the Participant with respect to the payment of any taxes which the Company determines must be withheld with respect to the RSUs. The Administrator, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may satisfy such tax withholding obligations, in whole or in part, by withholding otherwise deliverable Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value sufficient to (but not exceeding) the minimum amount required to be withheld. In addition and to the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company has the right to retain without notice from salary or other amounts payable to the Participant, cash having a value sufficient to satisfy any tax withholding obligations that cannot be satisfied by the withholding of otherwise deliverable Shares.

 

8.     Changes in Shares . In the event that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares or other securities of the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares occurs such that an adjustment is determined by the Administrator (in its sole discretion) to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Award, the Administrator may, in such manner as it shall deem equitable or appropriate in order to prevent the diminution or enlargement of any such benefits or potential benefits, make adjustments to this Award, including adjustments in the number and type of Shares Participant would have received upon vesting of the RSUs; provided, however , that the number of Shares into which the RSUs may be converted shall always be a whole number.

 

9.     Rights as Stockholder . Neither the Participant nor any person claiming under or through the Participant will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares (which may be in book entry form) will have been issued and recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to the Participant (including through electronic delivery to a brokerage account). After such issuance, recordation and delivery, the Participant will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares.

 

10.     No Effect on Employment . The transactions contemplated hereunder and the vesting schedule set forth in the Notice of Grant do not constitute an express or implied promise of continued employment for any period of time.

 

11.     Award is Not Transferable . Except to the limited extent provided in Section 5 above, this Award of RSUs and the rights and privileges conferred hereby will not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way by the Participant (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and will not be subject to sale under execution, attachment or similar process, until the Participant has been issued the Shares. Upon any attempt by the Participant to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of this Award, or any right or privilege conferred hereby, or upon any attempted sale under any execution, attachment or similar process, this Award and the rights and privileges conferred hereby immediately will become null and void.

 

12.     Entire Agreement . This Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Notice of Grant, represents the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the RSUs.

 

13.     Binding Agreement . Subject to the limitation on the transferability of this Award contained herein, this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.

 

E- 26
 

 

14.     Additional Conditions to Issuance of Certificates for Shares . The Company shall not be required to issue any certificate or certificates for Shares hereunder prior to fulfillment of all the following conditions: (a) the admission of such Shares to listing on all stock exchanges on which such class of stock is then listed; (b) the completion of any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any state or federal law or under the rulings or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental regulatory body, which the Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable; (c) the obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any state or federal governmental agency, which the Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable; and (d) the lapse of such reasonable period of time following the date of vesting of the RSUs as the Administrator may establish from time to time for reasons of administrative convenience.

 

15.     Plan Governs . This Agreement is subject to all terms and provisions of the Plan. In the event of a conflict between one or more provisions of this Agreement and one or more provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan will govern.

 

16.     Administrator Authority . The Administrator will have the power to interpret the Plan and this Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules. All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith will be final and binding upon the Participant, the Company and all other interested persons. No member of the Administrator will be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or this Agreement.

 

17.     Captions . Captions provided herein are for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for interpretation or construction of this Agreement.

 

18.     Agreement Severable . In the event that any provision in this Agreement will be held invalid or unenforceable, such provision will be severable from, and such invalidity or unenforceability will not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

 

19.     Notice of Governing Law . This Agreement will be governed by the internal substantive laws, but not the choice of law rules of the State of Delaware.

 

20.     Employee Data Privacy .

 

(a)    Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data as described in this document by the Company for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Participant’s participation in the Plan.

 

(b)    Participant understands that the Company holds certain personal information, including, but not limited to, name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company, details of all entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Participant’s favor, for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan (“ Data ”).

 

(c)    Participant understands that Data may be transferred to any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in Participant’s country or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than Participant’s country.

(d)    Participant authorizes the recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing Participant’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to a broker or other third party.
