OVERVIEW
We are the first and only company to have developed and commercialized a
solid-state, digital gamma camera. A gamma camera is the preferred technology
used in nuclear imaging. Nuclear imaging offers the ability to non-invasively
measure physiological activity, including blood flow and organ function. We
believe that our technology will allow us to become a leading provider of gamma
cameras and mobile nuclear cardiac imaging services. Our patented solid-state
camera offers many advantages over a conventional vacuum tube camera, such as
smaller size, increased mobility, increased durability, improved image quality,
expanded clinical applications and enhanced patient comfort. All other gamma
cameras on the market currently use conventional vacuum tube technology. We
believe the features and benefits of our technology will encourage healthcare
providers to choose our camera over conventional cameras for both initial and
replacement purchases. In addition, because of our camera's increased mobility
and durability, we believe it is ideally suited for use in a mobile imaging
services application that has not been widely available until now. We are
initially focusing on the nuclear cardiology segment of the nuclear imaging
market, which is the largest and fastest growing segment of that market.
Our proprietary technology allows for both a significant reduction in the size
of a gamma camera and a significant improvement in spatial resolution, which is
a measurement of the quality of the image produced. Conventional gamma camera
photo-detectors are approximately four inches in height. Our photo-detectors are
only 0.012 inches high, providing an approximate 350-to-1 reduction in detector
size that makes the camera both thinner and lighter. While conventional cameras
use an average calculation to approximate the location of the gamma rays used to
create the image, our cameras determine the precise location of these gamma
rays. This improves spatial resolution and allows our camera to offer a
significant improvement in image quality over the conventional vacuum tube
technology.
We are currently addressing the rapidly growing nuclear cardiology market in the
following two ways:
- NUCLEAR CAMERA SALES--We are selling our camera and related products to
physician offices, imaging centers, hospitals and research laboratories,
thus providing customers with a technologically advanced alternative to
conventional vacuum tube gamma cameras.
- MOBILE NUCLEAR CARDIAC IMAGING SERVICES--We are also providing mobile
nuclear imaging services, as described in this prospectus, to physician
offices, including cardiology and internal medicine practices. Our turn-key
mobile imaging solution provides on-site access to all the benefits of our
advanced diagnostic imaging technology, without requiring customers to make
an up-front payment, hire additional personnel, obtain regulatory approval
or establish a dedicated nuclear imaging suite. Our service model enables
physicians to capture the revenue that would have otherwise been lost
because the patient was referred elsewhere. In addition, it provides us with
a recurring revenue stream from the servicing of our customers on a routine
basis.
We began commercial production of our first solid-state, digital gamma camera
product, marketed as the DIGIRAD-TM- 2020TC Imager-TM- camera, in January 2000
and shipped our first unit in March 2000. From our first shipment through
June 30, 2001, we had received orders for 117 cameras, 59 of which had been
shipped. We established our mobile nuclear cardiac imaging services operations
in the second half of 2000. As of June 30, 2001, we were providing nuclear
cardiac imaging services to approximately 101 physician offices in California,
Delaware, Florida, Indiana, Maryland, New Jersey,
1
North Carolina, Ohio and Pennsylvania. During the six month period ended
June 30, 2001, our mobile imaging services business performed approximately
6,900 imaging procedures.
INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
NUCLEAR IMAGING
Nuclear medicine is used primarily in cardiovascular, oncology and neurological
applications. Nuclear imaging offers the ability to non-invasively measure
varying degrees of physiological activity, including blood flow, organ function,
metabolic activity, biochemical activity, and other functional activity within
the body. According to a 2001 study by Frost & Sullivan, a leading marketing
consulting company, there were approximately 15.5 million nuclear imaging
procedures performed in the U.S. in 2000. We believe over 25 million procedures
were performed worldwide. The market consists of two primary technologies, gamma
cameras and dedicated positron emission tomography, or PET, machines. Frost &
Sullivan states that gamma cameras are currently the preferred choice for the
majority of nuclear medicine procedures. The most widely used type of gamma
camera is a single photon emission computed tomography, or SPECT, camera.
TRENDS IN NUCLEAR CARDIAC IMAGING
Nuclear cardiology is the largest and fastest growing segment of the nuclear
imaging market. Frost & Sullivan reports that of the 15.5 million nuclear
imaging procedures performed in the U.S. in 2000, 7.9 million, or 51%, were
cardiology related procedures. The nuclear cardiology procedure volume is
expected to grow by approximately 25% annually over the next 5 years.
Increasingly, a nuclear cardiac imaging procedure is the first non-invasive,
diagnostic imaging procedure performed on patients with suspected heart disease.
Given the clinical advantages of nuclear cardiac images, many payors are
requiring nuclear studies prior to the more invasive and expensive diagnostic
and therapeutic procedures.
Reasons for the rapid growth in nuclear cardiac imaging procedures include:
- Valuable clinical information;
- Cost-effectiveness;
- Non-invasive nature;
- Established reimbursement; and
- An increase in heart disease.
Frost & Sullivan divides the nuclear cardiac imaging procedure market into four
segments: hospital in-patient, hospital out-patient, cardiology practices and
diagnostic imaging centers. Although a number of cardiology practices with more
than five cardiologists have incorporated nuclear medicine into their practice
setting, most nuclear cardiology procedures are currently referred to hospitals
and imaging centers, where the cardiologist loses clinical control and receives
minimal or no economic benefit.
DIGIRAD'S MARKET OPPORTUNITY
Our technology allows us to address the following two markets:
- NUCLEAR CAMERA SALES--Frost & Sullivan projects that the U.S. gamma camera
market for nuclear imaging will be approximately $325 million in 2001, and
is expected to grow at an average annual rate of approximately 5% from 2001
to 2007. We estimate that the non-U.S. gamma camera market is approximately
$300 million. In addition, we estimate that the market for technical
services is an additional 10% to 15% of a camera's purchase price per year
over the life of the contract, which is typically 5 years.
2
- MOBILE NUCLEAR CARDIAC IMAGING SERVICES--We believe the market opportunity
for our mobile nuclear imaging services business is approximately $2.6
billion. This market size is based on our target market of procedures
performed in hospital, outpatient facilities, diagnostic imaging centers,
physician offices and the following:
- A report by Frost & Sullivan that approximately 7.9 million nuclear
cardiac imaging procedures were performed in the U.S. in 2000;
- Frost & Sullivan's estimate, based on a more limited study, that
approximately 56% of U.S. nuclear cardiac imaging procedures were
performed in a hospital outpatient facility, diagnostic imaging
center or physician office in 2000; and
- Our average net revenue of approximately $600 per procedure.
Our proprietary technology enables physicians to perform office-based nuclear
imaging procedures that were previously referred elsewhere, with limited
disruption to their current practice. Therefore, we believe our solutions will
accelerate the transition of nuclear cardiac imaging procedures to non-hospital
sites, in particular cardiology and internal medicine practices.
THE DIGIRAD SYSTEM
Our proprietary technology has enabled us to develop a gamma camera with many
unique features. Some of the features of the DIGIRAD-TM- solid-state camera are
outlined below:
- SMALLER SIZE--Our 425-pound camera and 350-pound SPECTour-TM- chair require
only 7 feet by 9 feet of working space vs. a 1,500 to 5,000 pound vacuum
tube SPECT camera that requires a dedicated room with reinforced floors;
- INCREASED MOBILITY--The mobility of our camera facilitates our imaging
services business as opposed to vacuum tube cameras that are typically
permanently installed in hospitals or imaging centers;
- INCREASED DURABILITY--Our camera is relatively insensitive to physical shock
or temperature variations and should offer much greater reliability than a
vacuum tube camera whose single scintillation crystal is easily damaged;
- IMPROVED IMAGE QUALITY--Images on the perimeter of our detector heads are as
clear as images at the center while the best image quality on a vacuum tube
camera is obtained only in the center;
- EXPANDED CLINICAL APPLICATIONS--Our smaller and lighter camera heads are
more flexible than vacuum tube camera heads and can be used in multiple
applications throughout the hospital; and
- ENHANCED PATIENT COMFORT--With our camera, patients sit upright with their
arms resting in front of them rather than having to lie and hold their arms
above their head as vacuum tube cameras require.
OUR BUSINESS STRATEGY
Our goal is to rapidly expand our business and increase our revenues by offering
a complete nuclear imaging solution to physician offices, imaging centers,
hospitals and research laboratories. The key elements of our business strategy
include:
- Leveraging our proprietary technology to increase sales of products and
imaging services;
- Aggressively targeting the growing nuclear cardiology market;
- Expanding our integrated, direct sales force;
- Leveraging our proprietary manufacturing processes to reduce costs and
improve performance;
- Expanding acceptance of additional clinical applications; and
- Continuing technological development.

Risk factors
IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS PROSPECTUS, THE FOLLOWING
RISK FACTORS SHOULD BE CAREFULLY CONSIDERED IN EVALUATING US AND OUR BUSINESS
BEFORE PURCHASING ANY OF THE COMMON STOCK BEING OFFERED. INVESTMENT IN OUR
COMMON STOCK INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK AND SHOULD BE REGARDED AS
SPECULATIVE. IF ANY OF THE FOLLOWING RISKS ACTUALLY OCCUR, OUR BUSINESS COULD BE
MATERIALLY HARMED, OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS COULD BE
MATERIALLY AND ADVERSELY AFFECTED, AND THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK
COULD DECLINE AND YOU COULD LOSE ALL OR A PART OF YOUR INVESTMENT. THE
CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS MADE IN THIS PROSPECTUS SHOULD BE READ AS BEING APPLICABLE
TO ALL RELATED FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS WHEREVER THEY APPEAR IN THIS
PROSPECTUS.
RISKS RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS
IF OUR SOLID-STATE, DIGITAL GAMMA CAMERA AND NUCLEAR IMAGING SERVICES ARE NOT
ACCEPTED BY PHYSICIANS OR OTHER HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS, WE MAY BE UNABLE TO
ACHIEVE PROFITABILITY.
Our solid-state, digital gamma camera technologies represent a new approach in
the nuclear imaging market, and we have sold our products only in limited
quantities. Our success in this market depends on whether potential customers
view our new technology as effective and economically beneficial. We do not know
the rate at which physicians or other healthcare providers will adopt our
products or imaging services, if at all, or the rate at which they will purchase
them in the future, if at all. There can be no assurances that we can attract
future customers on acceptable terms that will enable us to develop a
sustainable, profitable business. If third-party payors do not accept our
products or imaging services or deny adequate payment to physicians and other
healthcare providers using our products and services, this may adversely affect
acceptance of our products. Acceptance of our products and imaging services by
physicians, including physicians who do not currently use cardiac imaging
products, is essential to our success and may require us to overcome resistance
to a new technology for cardiac imaging services. Our failure to do any of these
things may prevent us from selling sufficient quantities of our products and
imaging services to be profitable.
WE HAVE RECENTLY INTRODUCED OUR PRODUCT INTO THE MARKETPLACE AND MAY NOT SUCCEED
OR BECOME PROFITABLE.
We have not been profitable since our inception. We have incurred substantial
costs to develop, introduce and enhance our solid-state, digital gamma camera.
As of June 30, 2001, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately
$51.0 million. We shipped our first product in March 2000. We expect to incur
substantial additional expenses in the future as we continue to conduct research
and development efforts on newer generation products and increase sales and
marketing efforts on our recently released, first generation products.
Furthermore, planned expansion of manufacturing operations and expansion in the
nuclear imaging services market will result in significant expenses over the
next several years that may not be offset by significant revenues. We expect
that a majority of our revenues for the near term and our ability to achieve
profitability will depend upon our ability to successfully market our
solid-state, digital gamma camera and our successful expansion into the nuclear
imaging services market. We will need to begin generating significant revenues
to achieve profitability. Due to our limited operating history, it is difficult
to predict when, if ever, we will be profitable and to evaluate our business or
prospects. Our business strategies, including our expansion in the nuclear
imaging services market, may not be successful and we may not be profitable in
any future period. Even if we do become profitable, we cannot ensure investors
that we can sustain or
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6
RISK FACTORS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. If our
revenues grow more slowly than anticipated, or if our operating expenses exceed
our expectations, our business will be adversely affected. You should consider
our business and prospects in light of the risks and uncertainties encountered
by new technology companies in evaluating whether to invest in our common stock.
WE MAY NOT HAVE THE RESOURCES REQUIRED TO SUCCESSFULLY COMPETE IN OUR HIGHLY
COMPETITIVE INDUSTRY, WHICH MAY MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO PENETRATE THE PRODUCT AND
SERVICES MARKETS.
The existing market for nuclear imaging products, including cardiac imaging, is
well established and intensely competitive. In addition, we are seeking to
develop new markets for our solid-state, digital gamma camera products. In
particular, we are working aggressively to further develop the mobile cardiac
imaging services market. Our failure to diversify our revenue streams by
successfully increasing both product sales and mobile imaging services could
cause significant volatility in our overall results. Competitive pressure may
make it difficult for us to acquire and retain customers and may require us to
reduce the price of our products and imaging services. Our primary competitors
have better name recognition, significantly greater financial resources and
existing relationships with some of our potential customers, among other
competitive advantages. Our competitors may be able to use their existing
relationships to discourage customers from purchasing our products and imaging
services. We expect competition to increase as potential and existing
competitors begin to enter these new markets or modify their existing products
and services to compete directly with ours. In addition, our competitors may be
able to devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of new
or existing products and services, thereby allowing them to respond more quickly
to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements.
OUR PUBLIC PERCEPTION COULD BE HARMED IF WE EXPERIENCE TECHNICAL PROBLEMS WITH
THE NEW TECHNOLOGIES USED IN OUR CAMERAS OR IF SHIPMENTS OF OUR PRODUCTS ARE
DELAYED, WHICH WOULD CAUSE US TO LOSE CUSTOMERS AND REVENUES.
Our solid-state, digital gamma camera technologies have only recently been
introduced into the marketplace. As these technologies are increasingly used by
more customers, significant defects may emerge. In addition, if our cameras are
perceived as being difficult to use or causing discomfort to patients, our
public image may be impaired. Public perception may also be impaired if we fail
to deliver our products in a timely manner due to difficulties with our
suppliers and vendors or due to our inability to efficiently manufacture and
assemble products. A tarnished reputation could result in a loss of customers
and revenues even after any quality or delivery problems are resolved.
Additionally, we expect that problems or perceived problems with our products
could adversely impact the commercial success of our imaging services business.
WE MAY EXPERIENCE SIGNIFICANT FLUCTUATIONS IN OUR QUARTERLY RESULTS.
Our future operating results will depend on numerous factors, many of which we
do not control. Changes in any or all of these factors could cause our operating
results to fluctuate and increase the volatility of the market price of our
common stock. Some of these factors include:
- demand for our products and our ability to meet such demand;
- product and price competition;
- changes in the costs of components;
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7
RISK FACTORS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- success of our sales and distribution channels;
- successful development and commercialization of new and enhanced products on
a timely basis;
- timing of significant orders and shipments;
- timing of and possible delay in our receiving approval for necessary
regulatory licenses;
- timing of new product introductions and product enhancements by us or our
competitors; and
- timing and magnitude of our expenditures.
Accordingly, we believe that quarterly sales and operating results may vary
significantly in the future and that period-to-period comparisons of our results
of operations are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as
indicators of future performance. We cannot assure you that our sales will
increase or be sustained in future periods or that we will be profitable in any
future period.
In addition, we experience seasonality in the service of our DIS customers. For
example, our study volumes typically decline from our second fiscal quarter to
our third fiscal quarter due to summer holidays and vacation schedules. We may
also experience declining study volumes in December due to holidays and in the
first quarter due to weather conditions in certain parts of the country. These
seasonal factors may lead to fluctuations in our quarterly operating results. It
is difficult for us to evaluate the degree to which the summer slowdown, winter
holiday variations and weather conditions may make our revenues unpredictable in
the future. We may not be able to reduce our expenses, including our debt
service obligations, quickly enough to respond to these declines in revenue,
which would make our business difficult to operate and would harm our financial
results. If this happens, the price of our common stock may decline.
OUR RELIANCE ON A LIMITED NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS MAY CAUSE OUR SALES TO BE
VOLATILE.
We currently have a small number of customers, whom we typically bill after the
delivery of our products and imaging services. As of June 30, 2001, we had
received orders for 117 cameras, 58 of which have not yet been delivered and
paid for, and we had signed contracts with 101 customers to use our mobile
imaging services. If these orders were to be cancelled, or our imaging service
customers stopped using our service or do not renew their service agreements
with us, our business would be harmed. Furthermore, in view of this small
customer base, our failure to gain additional customers, the loss of any current
customers or a significant reduction in the level of imaging services provided
to any one customer could harm our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
THE SALES CYCLE FOR OUR PRODUCTS IS TYPICALLY LENGTHY, CAUSING SIGNIFICANT
FLUCTUATIONS IN OUR REVENUE.
Our sales efforts for our cameras are dependent on the capital expenditures
budgets of our potential customers. Often our potential customers require a
significant amount of time to plan for major purchases, such as our camera. We
may expend substantial funds and management effort long before we actually sell
our products and with no assurance that we will ultimately be successful. Even
if we are successful in such sales, a long sales cycle makes it more difficult
for us to accurately evaluate and predict our sales and operating performance.
Our revenues may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and any
shortfalls from estimates expected by securities or industry analysts could have
an immediate and significant adverse effect on our stock price.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8
RISK FACTORS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WE CURRENTLY MANUFACTURE OUR PRODUCTS IN LIMITED QUANTITIES AND HAVE LIMITED
SALES AND DISTRIBUTION CAPABILITIES.
We currently manufacture our products in limited quantities, and to become
profitable, we must manufacture our products in greater quantities. As we expand
production, we may encounter difficulties in obtaining adequate supplies of
components, additional employees and maintaining the high quality of our
products. We may be unable to expand production and accomplish these objectives
without incurring substantially increased costs, which may reduce our ability to
become profitable or reduce our profitability.
We have established a direct sales team, an independent distributor network in
the United States and Canada, and a corporate partner in Japan to sell our
products and imaging services both domestically and internationally. Our future
revenue growth will depend in large part on our success in maintaining and
expanding these sales and distribution channels, which may be an expensive and
time-consuming process. We are highly dependent upon the efforts of talented
sales employees in increasing our revenue. We face intense competition for
qualified sales employees and may be unable to attract and retain such
personnel, which would adversely affect our ability to expand and maintain our
distribution network. If we are unable to expand and maintain our direct sales
team or distribution network, we may be unable to sell enough of our products
and imaging services for our business to be profitable.
WE MAY BE HARMED BY HIGHER ENERGY COSTS AND INTERRUPTED POWER SUPPLIES RESULTING
FROM THE ELECTRICAL POWER SHORTAGES CURRENTLY AFFECTING CALIFORNIA.
Our corporate headquarters and manufacturing facilities are located in San
Diego, California. Electrical power is vital to our operations and we rely on a
continuous power supply to conduct our operations. California is in the midst of
a power crisis and has recently experienced significant power shortages. In the
event of an acute power shortage, the California system operator has on some
occasions implemented, and may in the future continue to implement, rolling
blackouts throughout California. If our energy costs substantially increase or
blackouts interrupt our power supply frequently or for more than a few days, we
may have to reduce or temporarily discontinue our normal operations. In
addition, the cost of our research and development efforts may increase because
of the disruption to our operations. Any such reduction or disruption of our
operations at our facilities could harm our business.
WE FACE RISKS IN OUR INTERNATIONAL MARKETS.
As we expand internationally, we will need to hire, train and retain qualified
personnel in countries where language, cultural or regulatory impediments may
exist. We cannot assure you that vendors, physicians or other involved parties
in foreign markets will accept our products, imaging services and business
practices. International revenues are subject to inherent risks, including:
- costs of localizing product and service offerings for foreign markets;
- difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations;
- reduced protection for intellectual property rights in some countries;
- difficulties and delays in accounts receivable collection;
- fluctuating currency exchange rates;
- changes in regulatory requirements;
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9
RISK FACTORS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- burdens of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws and labor
practices; and
- conforming our business model to operate under government-run health care
systems.
WE MAY BE UNABLE TO ADEQUATELY PROTECT OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, WHICH
COULD CAUSE US TO LOSE THOSE RIGHTS OR SUBJECT US TO INCREASED COSTS.
Our success and ability to compete depends on our licensed and
internally-developed technology. If we are unable to protect our proprietary
rights, we could face increased competition from our competitors or incur
increased costs. We protect our proprietary technology through a combination of
patent, copyright, trade secret and trademark law. We also enter into
confidentiality or license agreements with our employees, consultants and
corporate partners, and generally control access to, and the distribution of,
our products, designs, documentation and other proprietary information. We
cannot be sure that our pending patent applications will result in issued
patents. In addition, our issued patents or pending applications may be
challenged or circumvented by our competitors. Despite our efforts to protect
our intellectual property rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to obtain and
use information or technologies, which we regard as proprietary. Policing
unauthorized use of our intellectual property will be difficult and we cannot be
certain that we will be able to prevent misappropriation of our technology,
particularly in countries where the laws may not protect our proprietary rights
as fully as in the United States.
OUR COMPETITORS MAY CLAIM OUR TECHNOLOGY OR PRODUCTS INFRINGE UPON THE
TECHNOLOGY COVERED BY THEIR PATENTS OR PATENT APPLICATIONS, WHICH COULD RESULT
IN THE LOSS OF OUR RIGHTS, SUBJECT US TO LIABILITY AND DIVERT MANAGEMENT'S
ATTENTION.
Many of our competitors in the nuclear imaging business hold issued patents and
have filed, or may file, patent applications. Any claims by our competitors that
we are infringing their technology, with or without merit, could be
time-consuming to defend, result in costly litigation, divert management's
attention and resources, cause product shipment delays, require us to enter into
royalty or licensing agreements, prevent us from manufacturing or selling some
or all of our products, or result in our liability to one or more of these
competitors. If a third party makes a successful claim of patent infringement
against us, we may be unable to license the infringed or similar technology on
acceptable terms, if at all, which may prevent us from manufacturing or selling
our products. If we are forced to enter into license agreements for infringed
technology, royalties paid under these agreements may increase our costs to
manufacture our products. If we cannot raise the price of our products to
recover royalties that we have paid without losing customers, our financial
results would be negatively impacted.
WE RELY SIGNIFICANTLY ON THIRD-PARTY VENDORS TO MANUFACTURE COMPONENTS FOR OUR
SOLID-STATE, DIGITAL GAMMA CAMERAS, WHICH COULD RESULT IN DELIVERY DELAYS, LOSS
OF CUSTOMERS AND LOSS OF REVENUES.
We contract with a limited number of independent suppliers to produce components
that we use in the manufacture of our products. Specifically, we currently use
one vendor to supply the crystal arrays used in the manufacture of our gamma
camera. If this vendor experiences difficulty in the production of the crystal
arrays or in meeting our standards, we may have delays in the production of our
gamma camera. This vendor could experience financial, operational, production or
quality assurance difficulties or a catastrophic event that reduces or
interrupts delivery of crystal arrays to us. In addition, to our knowledge,
there are only three suppliers in the world who produce these crystal
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10
RISK FACTORS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
arrays. While we have established a second vendor source and are evaluating a
third source to meet our future requirements, establishing alternative
arrangements could take several months. If we are required to switch vendors,
the manufacture and delivery of our products could be interrupted for an
extended period of time and may cause the loss of both customers and revenue.
Deliveries from our current third-party vendor or any substitute vendor may also
be delayed because of the potential inability of these vendors to meet high
demand for their products from their other customers. We cannot guarantee that
alternative suppliers will be able to meet our future requirements or that
alternative sources will be available to us at favorable prices, if at all. Our
ability to manufacture and deliver products in a timely manner could be harmed
if these vendors fail to maintain an adequate supply of these crystal arrays.
OUR PRODUCTS MAY BECOME OBSOLETE, WHICH COULD CAUSE US TO LOSE CUSTOMERS OR
INCUR SUBSTANTIAL COSTS.
Our products could become obsolete or unmarketable if other products utilizing
new technologies are introduced by our competitors or new industry standards
emerge. If we are unable to react to these events we may lose customers and
revenues. To be successful, we will need to continually enhance our products and
to design, develop and market new products that successfully respond to any
competitive developments, all of which may be expensive or time consuming. Our
failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.
LOSS OF KEY EXECUTIVES AND FAILURE TO ATTRACT QUALIFIED MANAGERS, ENGINEERS AND
SALES PERSONS COULD LIMIT OUR GROWTH AND NEGATIVELY IMPACT OUR OPERATIONS.
Our future performance is dependent on the efforts of our key technical, sales
and managerial personnel and our ability to retain them, particularly R. Scott
Huennekens, Gary J.G. Atkinson, Richard L. Conwell, Robert E. Johnson, David M.
Sheehan and John F. Sheridan. Furthermore, our future success will depend in
part upon our ability to identify, hire and retain additional key management and
sales personnel, engineers and technicians. Given the intense competition for
such qualified personnel, there can be no assurance that we will be able to
continue to attract and retain the personnel necessary to develop our business.
Failure to attract and retain key personnel could have an adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and results of operations. We do not have any
employment agreements with any of our employees. We do not maintain key person
insurance on any of our employees.
IF WE BECOME SUBJECT TO PRODUCT LIABILITY OR WARRANTY CLAIMS, WE MAY EXPERIENCE
REDUCED DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS OR BE REQUIRED TO PAY DAMAGES THAT EXCEED OUR
INSURANCE LIMITATIONS.
The sale and support of our products entails the risk of product liability or
warranty claims, such as those based on claims that the failure of one of our
products resulted in a misdiagnosis, among other issues. The medical instrument
industry in general has been subject to significant products liability
litigation. We may incur significant liability in the event of such litigation.
Although we maintain product liability insurance, we cannot be sure that this
coverage is adequate or that it will continue to be available on acceptable
terms, if at all. We also may face warranty exposure, which could adversely
affect our operating results. Any unforeseen warranty exposure or insufficient
insurance could harm our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11
RISK FACTORS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ACHIEVE THE EXPECTED BENEFITS FROM ANY FUTURE ACQUISITIONS
WHICH WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Although we have no current plans for acquisitions, if we decide to acquire any
other business and cannot successfully integrate such future acquisitions, we
may not realize anticipated operating advantages and cost savings. The
integration of companies that have previously operated separately involves a
number of risks, including:
- demands on management related to the increase in our size after an
acquisition;
- the diversion of our management's attention from the management of daily
operations to the integration of operations;
- difficulties in the assimilation and retention of employees;
- potential adverse effects on operating results; and
- challenges in retaining clients.
Successful integration of operations will depend upon our ability to manage
those operations and to eliminate redundant and excess costs. Because of
difficulties in combining operations, we may not be able to achieve the cost
savings and other related benefits that we would hope to achieve after the
completion of these acquisitions which could harm our financial condition and
results of operations.
RISKS RELATED TO GOVERNMENT REGULATION
WE MUST BE LICENSED TO HANDLE AND USE HAZARDOUS MATERIALS AND MAY BE LIABLE FOR
CONTAMINATION OR OTHER HARM CAUSED BY HAZARDOUS MATERIALS THAT WE USE.
We use hazardous and radioactive materials in our research, development and
manufacturing processes and the provision of our imaging services and must be
licensed to handle such materials. We are currently licensed in all states in
which we operate, and there can be no assurances that we will be able to retain
these licenses indefinitely. In addition, we must become licensed in all states
in which we plan to expand. Obtaining these additional licenses is an expensive
and time consuming process, and in some cases we may not be able to obtain these
licenses at all. We are subject to federal, state and local regulation governing
the use, handling, storage and disposal of hazardous materials. We cannot
completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from
hazardous materials and we may incur liability as a result of any contamination
or injury. We have incurred and may continue to incur expenses related to
compliance with environmental laws. Such future expenses or liability could have
a significant negative impact on our business, financial condition and results
of operations. Further, we cannot assure you that the cost of complying with
these laws and regulations will not increase materially in the future.
WE AND OUR CUSTOMERS DEPEND ON PAYMENTS FROM GOVERNMENT HEALTHCARE PROGRAMS AND
THIRD-PARTY PAYORS. ANY FUTURE REDUCTION IN THESE PAYMENTS COULD CAUSE US TO
LOSE CUSTOMERS AND REVENUES.
We expect that substantially all of our revenues in the foreseeable future will
be derived from the sale of products or the providing of imaging services in the
nuclear imaging market. Our imaging services model consists of two primary
delivery options. Under our first option, which we refer to as "mixed billing,"
we provide the technical component of nuclear imaging services and bill either
the physician or the patient's third party payor, such as Medicare. We also bill
the patient for any copayment. The
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12
RISK FACTORS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
physician performs and bills for the technical component, such as the
interpretation of the test. Under our second option, we lease cameras, related
equipment and technical personnel to physicians on a turn-key basis so that they
may deliver imaging services to their patients. The physician then bills
globally for both the technical and professional component. When we refer to
"imaging services" in this prospectus, we are referring both to our mixed
billing option and our leasing services option.
Our success in the foreseeable future depends directly upon the financial
success of the customers who either buy our cameras or use our imaging services,
and their continued demand for our products and imaging services. These
customers generally rely on third-party payors, principally federal Medicare,
and private health insurance plans, to pay for all or a portion of the cost of
imaging procedures. We also rely on these third-party payors for payment of the
technical services component provided as part of our Digirad Imaging Solutions
imaging services. Some third-party payors, including some state Medicaid
programs, currently do not cover our services, and it is possible that other
payors will adopt coverage restrictions that adversely affect us in the future.
We may be unable to sell our products or imaging services on a profitable basis
if third-party payors deny coverage or reduce current levels of payment.
Third-party payors continue to undertake efforts to contain or reduce healthcare
costs through various means, including the movement to managed care systems
where healthcare providers contract to provide comprehensive healthcare for a
fixed fee per patient. These efforts to reduce healthcare costs may make
third-party payors unwilling to reimburse patients or healthcare providers for
our imaging services or allow only specific providers to provide imaging
services, which would reduce demand for our imaging services, and in turn, our
products as well. To the extent that such efforts adversely affect the business,
financial conditions and profitability of our customers, our customers may be
less able to afford our products and our imaging services, which may cause our
sales to decrease.
COMPLIANCE WITH EXTENSIVE PRODUCT REGULATIONS COULD BE EXPENSIVE AND
TIME-CONSUMING AND ANY FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THESE REGULATIONS COULD HARM OUR
ABILITY TO SELL AND MARKET OUR PRODUCTS AND IMAGING SERVICES.
U.S. and foreign regulatory agencies, including the United States Food and Drug
Administration, or the FDA, and comparable international agencies, govern the
testing, marketing and registration of new medical devices or modifications to
medical devices, in addition to regulating manufacturing practices, reporting,
labeling and record keeping procedures. The regulatory process makes it longer,
harder and more costly to bring our products to market, and we cannot assure you
that any of our future products will be approved. All of our planned services,
products and manufacturing activities, as well as the manufacturing activities
of third-party medical device manufacturers who supply components to us, are
subject to this regulation. We and such third-party manufacturers are or will be
required to:
- undergo rigorous inspections by domestic and international agencies;
- obtain the prior approval of these agencies before we can market and sell
our products; and
- satisfy content requirements for all of our sales and promotional materials.
Compliance with the regulations of these agencies may delay or prevent us from
introducing new or improved products, which could in turn affect our ability to
achieve or maintain a profitable level of sales. We may be subject to sanctions,
including monetary fines and criminal penalties, the temporary or permanent
suspension of operations, product recalls and marketing restrictions, if we fail
to comply with the laws and regulations pertaining to our business. Our
third-party component manufacturers may also be subject to the same sanctions
and, as a result, may be unable to supply components for our products. Any
failure to retain governmental approvals that we currently hold or obtain
additional
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
13
RISK FACTORS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
similar approvals could prevent us from successfully marketing our technology
and could harm our operating results. Furthermore, changes in the applicable
governmental regulations could prevent further commercialization of our
technologies and harm our business.
Even if regulatory approval or clearance of a product is granted, regulatory
agencies could impose limitations on uses for which the product may be labeled
and promoted. Further, for a marketed product, its manufacturer and
manufacturing facilities are subject to periodic review and inspection. Later
discovery of problems with a product, manufacturer or facility may result in
restrictions on the product, manufacturer or facility, including withdrawal of
the product from the market or other enforcement actions.
WE WILL SPEND CONSIDERABLE TIME AND MONEY COMPLYING WITH FEDERAL AND STATE
REGULATIONS AND, IF WE ARE UNABLE TO FULLY COMPLY WITH SUCH REGULATIONS, WE
COULD FACE SUBSTANTIAL PENALTIES.
We are directly or indirectly through our clients subject to extensive
regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct our
business. The laws that directly or indirectly affect our ability to operate our
business include, but are not limited to, the following:
- the federal Medicare and Medicaid Anti-Kickback Law, which prohibits persons
from soliciting, offering, receiving or providing remuneration, directly or
indirectly, in cash or in kind, to induce either the referral of an
individual, or furnishing or arranging for a good or service, for which
payment may be made under federal healthcare programs such as the Medicare
and Medicaid Programs;
- the federal False Claims Act, which imposes civil and criminal liability on
individuals and entities who submit, or cause to be submitted, false or
fraudulent claims for payment to the government;
- the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996,
which prohibits executing a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit
program, including private payors;
- the federal False Statements Statute, which prohibits knowingly and
willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making
any materially false statement in connection with the delivery of or payment
for healthcare benefits, items or services;
- the federal physician self-referral prohibition, commonly known as the Stark
Law, which, in the absence of a statutory or regulatory exception, prohibits
the referral of Medicare or Medicaid patients by a physician to an entity
for the provision of certain designated healthcare services, if the
physician or a member of the physician's immediate family has an ownership
interest in, or a compensation arrangement with, the entity and also
prohibits that entity from submitting a bill to a federal payor for services
rendered pursuant to a prohibited referral;
- the federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, which regulates the sale,
manufacture, administration and prescribing of drugs;
- state law equivalents of the foregoing; and
- state laws that prohibit the practice of medicine by non-physicians and
fee-splitting arrangements between physicians and non-physicians.
If our operations are found to be in violation of any of the laws described
above or the other governmental regulations to which we or our clients are
subject, we may be subject to the applicable penalty associated with the
violation, including civil and criminal penalties, damages, fines and the
curtailment or restructuring of our operations. Any penalties, damages, fines,
curtailment or
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14
RISK FACTORS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
restructuring of our operations would adversely affect our ability to operate
our business and our financial results. The risk of our being found in violation
of these laws is increased by the fact that many of them have not been fully
interpreted by the regulatory authorities or the courts, and their provisions
are open to a variety of interpretations. Any action against us for violation of
these laws, even if we successfully defend against it, could cause us to incur
significant legal expenses, divert our management's attention from the operation
of our business and damage our reputation. For a more detailed discussion of the
various state and federal regulations to which we are subject see "Business--
Government Regulation."
HEALTHCARE REFORM LEGISLATION COULD LIMIT THE PRICES WE CAN CHARGE FOR OUR
IMAGING SERVICES, WHICH WOULD REDUCE OUR REVENUES AND HARM OUR OPERATING
RESULTS.
In addition to extensive existing government healthcare regulation, there are
numerous initiatives at the federal and state levels for comprehensive reforms
affecting the payment for and availability of healthcare services, including a
number of proposals that would significantly limit reimbursement under the
Medicare and Medicaid Programs. It is not clear at this time what proposals, if
any, will be adopted or, if adopted, what effect these proposals would have on
our business. Aspects of certain of these healthcare proposals, such as
reductions in the Medicare and Medicaid Programs and containment of healthcare
costs on an interim basis by means that could include a short-term freeze on
prices charged by healthcare providers, could limit the demand for our imaging
services or affect the revenue per procedure that we can collect, which would
harm our business and results of operations.
THE IMPACT OF RECENTLY ENACTED FEDERAL LAWS COULD HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON
CAMERA SALES TO HOSPITALS DESIRING TO USE THE CAMERA IN OUT-PATIENT FACILITIES.
In order for institutional healthcare providers, such as hospitals, to be
eligible for cost-based Medicare reimbursement for their out-patient facilities,
these facilities must meet specific requirements. If these requirements are met,
a facility will be classified as "provider-based" and therefore eligible for
cost-based Medicare reimbursement, which is potentially more favorable than
other types of Medicare reimbursement. However, recently promulgated federal
regulations affect the ability of a Medicare provider to include a facility as
provider-based for purposes of Medicare reimbursement. While recent federal
legislation offers some relief for facilities previously recognized as
provider-based, some of our hospital customers may have difficulty qualifying
their out-patient facilities for provider-based status. If a hospital customer
cannot obtain provider-based status for their out-patient nuclear imaging
facility and therefore may not be eligible for cost-based Medicare
reimbursement, then the provider may not purchase a camera from us.
THE APPLICATION OF STATE CERTIFICATE OF NEED REGULATIONS COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS
AND FINANCIAL RESULTS.
Some states currently require, or may require in the future, a certificate of
need or similar regulatory approval prior to the acquisition of high-cost
capital items including diagnostic imaging systems or provision of diagnostic
imaging services by us or our clients. In many cases, a limited number of these
certificates are available in a given state. If we or our clients are unable to
obtain the applicable certificate or approval or additional certificates or
approvals necessary to expand our operations, these regulations may limit or
preclude our operations in the relevant jurisdictions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
15
RISK FACTORS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IF WE FAIL TO COMPLY WITH VARIOUS LICENSURE, OR CERTIFICATION STANDARDS, WE MAY
BE SUBJECT TO LOSS OF LICENSURE OR CERTIFICATION, WHICH WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT
OUR OPERATIONS.
All of the states in which we operate require that the imaging technicians that
operate our camera be licensed or certified. Obtaining such licenses may take
significant time as we expand into additional states. Further, we are currently
enrolled by Medicare contractors, or "carriers", as an independent diagnostic
testing facility, or IDTF, in five (5) states and are seeking such enrollment by
Medicare contractors in additional states. Enrollment is essential for us to
receive payment for healthcare services directly from Medicare. There can be no
assurances we will be able to maintain such enrollment or that we will be able
to gain such enrollment in other states. Any lapse in our licenses or
enrollment, or the licensure or certification of our technicians, could increase
our costs and adversely affect our operations and financial results.
In the healthcare industry, various types of organizations are accredited to
facilitate meeting certain Medicare certification requirements, expedite
third-party payment, and fulfill state licensure requirements. Some managed care
providers prefer to contract with accredited organizations. Thus far, we have
not found it necessary to seek or obtain accreditation from any established
accreditation agency. If it becomes necessary for us to do so in the future in
order to satisfy the requirements of third party payors or regulatory agencies,
there can be no assurances that we will be able to obtain or continuously
maintain this accreditation.
RISKS RELATED TO THIS OFFERING
CONCENTRATION OF OWNERSHIP OF OUR COMMON STOCK AMONG OUR EXISTING EXECUTIVE
OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS MAY PREVENT NEW INVESTORS FROM
INFLUENCING SIGNIFICANT CORPORATE DECISIONS.
Upon completion of this offering, our executive officers, directors and
beneficial owners of 5% or more of our common stock and their affiliates will,
in aggregate, beneficially own approximately % of our outstanding common
stock or % if the underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in full. As
a result, these persons, acting together, may have the ability to determine the
outcome of matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the
election and removal of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all
or substantially all of our assets. In addition, such persons, acting together,
may have the ability to control the management and affairs of our company.
Accordingly, this concentration of ownership may harm the market price of our
common stock by:
- delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company;
- impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination
involving our company; or
- discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise
attempting to obtain control of our company.
Please see "Principal stockholders" for additional information on concentration
of ownership of our common stock.

RISK FACTORS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THERE MAY NOT BE AN ACTIVE, LIQUID TRADING MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK.
We cannot assure you that there will be an active trading market for our common
stock following this offering. You may not be able to sell your shares quickly
or at the market price if trading in our stock is not active. The initial public
offering price was determined by negotiations between us and the representatives
of the underwriters based upon a number of factors. The initial public offering
price may not be indicative of prices that will prevail in the trading market.
Please see "Underwriting" for more information regarding our arrangement with
the underwriters and the factors considered in setting the initial public
offering price.
OUR STOCK PRICE COULD BE VOLATILE, AND YOUR INVESTMENT COULD SUFFER A DECLINE IN
VALUE WHICH MAY PREVENT INVESTORS IN OUR COMMON STOCK FROM SELLING THEIR SHARES
ABOVE THE INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING PRICE.
The trading price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could
be subject to wide fluctuations in price in response to various factors, many of
which are beyond our control, including:
- actual or anticipated variations in quarterly operating results;
- announcements of technological innovations by us or our competitors;
- new products or services introduced or announced by us or our competitors;
- changes in financial estimates by securities analysts;
- conditions or trends in the medical device industry and the imaging service
industry;
- changes in the market valuations of other similar companies;
- announcements by us of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships,
joint ventures or capital commitments;
- adverse action by regulatory agencies or changes in law;
- additions or departures of key personnel; and
- sales of our common stock.
In addition, the stock market in general, and the Nasdaq National Market in
particular, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have
often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of listed
companies. Further, there has been particular volatility in the market prices of
securities of medical device companies and imaging services companies. These
broad market and industry factors may seriously harm the market price of our
common stock, regardless of our operating performance. In the past, following
periods of volatility in the market price of a company's securities, securities
class-action litigation has often been instituted against that company. Such
litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and a
diversion of management's attention and resources, which could seriously harm
our business, financial condition and results of operations.
THE LARGE NUMBER OF SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR PUBLIC SALE AFTER THIS OFFERING COULD
CAUSE OUR STOCK PRICE TO DECLINE.
Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market after this
offering could seriously harm prevailing market prices for our common stock.
These sales might make it difficult or impossible for us to sell additional
securities when we need to raise capital. Based upon the number of
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

shares outstanding at August 23, 2001, upon the closing of this offering, we
will have outstanding shares of common stock, assuming no exercise
of the underwriters' over-allotment option and no exercise of options or
warrants to purchase shares of our common stock. Of these shares, the
shares being sold in this offering will be freely tradeable without
restriction or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933, unless
these shares are purchased by "affiliates" as that term is defined in Rule 144
of the Securities Act of 1933. The remaining shares of our common
stock were issued and sold by us in reliance on exemptions from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. These shares may be sold in the
public market only if they are registered or if they qualify from an exemption,
such as Rule 144 or 701 under the Securities Act of 1933.
Please see "Shares eligible for future sale" for a description of the number of
shares which may be sold by existing stockholders in the future.
INVESTORS IN THIS OFFERING WILL EXPERIENCE IMMEDIATE AND SUBSTANTIAL DILUTION.
The initial public offering price will be substantially higher than the pro
forma book value per share of our common stock. Purchasers of common stock in
this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the pro
forma net tangible book value of their stock of $ per share, assuming
an initial public offering price for our common stock of $ per share.
This dilution is due in large part to the fact that prior investors paid an
average price of $ per share when they purchased their shares of common
stock, which is substantially less than the assumed initial public offering
price of $ per share.
WE HAVE NOT PAID DIVIDENDS AND DO NOT ANTICIPATE PAYING DIVIDENDS ON OUR COMMON
STOCK IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.
We currently anticipate that we will retain all future earnings, if any, to
finance the growth and development of our business and do not anticipate paying
cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Any payment of
cash dividends will depend upon our financial condition, capital requirements,
earnings and other factors deemed relevant by our board of directors. Under the
terms of some of our credit agreements, we are restricted from paying cash
dividends and making other distributions to our stockholders.
ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS IN OUR CHARTER DOCUMENTS AND DELAWARE LAW COULD MAKE A
THIRD-PARTY ACQUISITION OF US DIFFICULT OR DECREASE THE PRICE INVESTORS MIGHT BE
WILLING TO PAY FOR OUR COMMON STOCK IN THE FUTURE.
The anti-takeover provisions in our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws and
Delaware law could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us
without approval of our board of directors. As a result of these provisions, we
could delay, deter or prevent a takeover attempt or third-party acquisition that
our stockholders consider to be in their best interests, including a takeover
attempt that results in a premium over the market price for the shares held by
our stockholders. Please see "Description of capital stock" for more information
on these anti-takeover provisions.

Forward-looking information
This prospectus may contain forward-looking statements relating to our
operations and strategy that are based on our current expectations, estimates
and projections. Words such as "expect," "intend," "plan," "project," "believe,"
"estimate" and other similar expressions are used to identify such
forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future
performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult
to predict. Further, any forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions
as to future events that may not prove to be accurate. Therefore, actual
outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted
in such forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly
update any forward-looking statement for any reason, even if new information
becomes available or other events occur in the future.
A number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially
from those indicated by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include,
among others, those set forth in this prospectus under the heading "Risk
factors."
Market and industry data and forecasts
This prospectus includes market and industry data and forecasts that we obtained
from market research, consultant surveys, publicly available information and
industry publications and surveys, and internal company surveys. Reports
prepared or published by Frost & Sullivan were the primary sources for
third-party industry data and forecasts. Industry surveys, publications,
consultant surveys and forecasts generally state they obtain the information
contained therein from sources believed to be reliable, but there can be no
assurance as to the accuracy and completeness of such information. We have not
independently verified any of the data from third-party sources nor have we
ascertained the underlying economic assumptions relied upon therein. Similarly,
independent sources have not verified internal company surveys, industry
forecasts and market research, which we believe to be reliable based upon
management's knowledge of the industry. In addition, we do not know what
assumptions regarding general economic growth are used in preparing the
forecasts we cite.

Use of proceeds
We expect to receive approximately $ million in net proceeds from the sale of
shares of common stock in this offering at an assumed initial public offering
price of $ per share, or approximately $ million if the underwriters'
over-allotment option is exercised in full, after deducting underwriting
discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses, which we expect to be
approximately $ million, or approximately $ million if the
underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in full.
We intend to use approximately $5.7 million of the net proceeds of this offering
to repay in full the following outstanding debt or financing obligations:
- approximately $2,500,000, including principal, accrued and unpaid interest
and prepayment penalties, under working capital term loans, with interest
rates ranging from 13.53% to 14.4%;
- approximately $2,500,000, including principal, accrued and unpaid interest
and prepayment penalties, under a line of credit with an interest rate of
prime plus 2% (which was 8% at June 30, 2001); and
- approximately $730,000, including principal, accrued and unpaid interest and
prepayment penalties, under a line of credit with an interest rate at the
greater of prime plus 1.25% or 10.25% (which was 10.25% at June 30, 2001).
The working capital term loans that we are repaying with proceeds from this
offering were issued under a loan and security agreement with MMC/GATX
Partnership No. 1 dated October 1999, as amended in August 2000 and
November 2000, and the proceeds were used to fund expansion of our manufacturing
operations. These term loans require monthly amortization and the final payment
is due November 2002.
The lines of credit that we are repaying with proceeds from this offering were
funded under various loan and security agreements, and the proceeds were used to
fund general corporate working capital requirements.
We intend to use the remainder of the net proceeds primarily for general
corporate purposes, including product development, marketing, capital
expenditures and working capital. We may also use a portion of the proceeds of
this offering for acquisitions or investments in complementary businesses. We
have no current plans, arrangements or understandings related to any acquisition
or investment.
The amounts and timing of any such use may vary significantly depending upon a
number of factors, including our revenue growth, asset growth, cash flows and
acquisition activities. Pending such uses, the net proceeds of this offering
will be invested in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing securities.
We currently anticipate that the net proceeds to be received by us from this
offering and existing cash balances will be sufficient to satisfy our operating
cash needs for at least 12 months following the closing of this offering. See
"Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources."
Dividend policy
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We do not
expect to pay any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. We currently intend
to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of our business. Any
future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of our
board of directors and will be dependent on our financial condition, operating
results, capital requirements and other factors that our board deems relevant.

Dilution
If you invest in our common stock, your interest will be diluted to the extent
of the difference between the initial public offering price per share of our
common stock and the pro forma net tangible book value per share of our common
stock after this offering.
Pro forma net tangible book value per share represents the amount of total
tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the pro forma number of
shares of common stock then outstanding. Our pro forma net tangible book value
at June 30, 2001, would have been $15.9 million, or $ per share of common
stock, after giving effect to the issuance of 2,618,462 shares of Series F
preferred stock in August 2001 and the automatic conversion of all shares of
preferred stock outstanding as of August 23, 2001 into 29,748,030 shares of
common stock in connection with this offering. After giving further effect to
the sale of shares of common stock in this offering at an assumed initial
public offering price of $ per share, and after deducting estimated
underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses, our pro
forma net tangible book value at June 30, 2001, would have been $ million,
or $ per share. This represents an immediate increase in pro forma net
tangible book value of $ per share to existing stockholders and an
immediate dilution of $ per share to new investors purchasing common stock
in this offering. The following table illustrates this per share dilution:

DILUTION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The tables and calculations above assume no issuance of the following shares
described below:
- the issuance of up to 5,952,426 shares of common stock upon the exercise of
stock options outstanding as of August 23, 2001 at a weighted average
exercise price of $0.64 per share;
- the issuance of up to 603,578 shares of common stock upon the exercise of
warrants outstanding as of August 23, 2001 at a weighted average exercise
price of $2.59 per share, of which warrants to purchase 65,875 shares will
expire if not exercised at the time of this offering and warrants to
purchase 60,000 shares will expire if a consulting agreement is terminated
before July 31, 2002;
- the issuance of up to 250,000 shares of common stock, as well as additional
shares of common stock issuable based upon future earnings results, as
additional consideration in connection with our acquisitions of Nuclear
Imaging Systems, Inc. and Florida Cardiology and Nuclear Medicine Group;
- the issuance of up to 4,725,883 shares of common stock reserved for future
issuance under our stock option plans; and
- the issuance of 10,000 shares of common stock at fair market value for every
three of our digital cameras sold by a consultant, up to a maximum of 40,000
shares, and thereafter 1,500 shares of common stock at fair market value for
each of our digital cameras sold by the consultant, in each case upon the
exercise of warrants issuable to the consultant.
If we assume the exercise of all stock options and warrants outstanding as of
August 23, 2001, our pro forma net tangible book value after the offering will
increase $ per share to existing stockholders and our pro forma net
tangible book value after the offering will be diluted $ per share to
new investors.
To the extent that any of the other shares of common stock described above are
issued, there will be further dilution to new investors. See "Capitalization,"
"Management--Benefit Plans," and the notes to our consolidated financial
statements included elsewhere in this prospectus for further information.

Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations
YOU SHOULD READ THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION OF OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE NOTES TO
THOSE STATEMENTS INCLUDED ELSEWHERE IN THIS PROSPECTUS. THIS DISCUSSION MAY
CONTAIN FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT INVOLVE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES. AS A
RESULT OF MANY FACTORS, SUCH AS THOSE SET FORTH UNDER "RISK FACTORS" AND
ELSEWHERE IN THIS PROSPECTUS, OUR ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM
THOSE ANTICIPATED IN THESE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS.
OVERVIEW
We are the first and only company to have developed and commercialized a
solid-state, digital gamma camera for use in nuclear medicine. We sell our
solid-state, digital gamma cameras and related equipment to physician practices,
imaging centers, hospitals and research laboratories in the United States,
Canada and Japan. We also use our proprietary technology to provide mobile
nuclear imaging services to physician offices and imaging centers through our
Digirad Imaging Solutions business unit, or DIS.
We incorporated as San Diego Semiconductor in 1985. In 1994, we changed our name
to Digirad Corporation and began development of a solid-state gamma camera for
nuclear imaging applications. Between 1994 and 1998, we developed and tested our
proprietary technology, financing our research operations with equity
investments. We began production of the current generation solid-state digital
gamma camera in 1999, and commercial shipments commenced in March 2000. As of
June 30, 2001, we had taken orders for 117 gamma cameras, of which 59 have been
shipped. We expect that 38 units in our backlog will be shipped by December 31,
2001 with the remainder expected to be shipped in 2002.
In the second half of 2000, we formed DIS to provide turn-key nuclear cardiac
imaging services to physician offices. We entered the service business via the
strategic acquisition of certain assets of two operators that provide us with
both critical mass and platforms for growth of our imaging services business:
- During the third quarter of 2000, we acquired some of the customer contracts
and select assets relating to the mobile nuclear imaging services of Florida
Cardiology and Nuclear Medicine Group, a provider of mobile and fixed site
nuclear imaging services in Florida. At the time of the acquisition, Florida
Cardiology was operating two mobile routes.
- During the fourth quarter of 2000, we acquired some of the customer
contracts and select assets relating to the mobile nuclear imaging services
of Nuclear Imaging Systems, Inc. and Cardiovascular Concepts, P.C., which
together provided mobile and fixed site nuclear imaging services in New
Jersey, North Carolina, Maryland and Pennsylvania. At the time of the
acquisition, these two companies were operating nine mobile routes.
We have incurred substantial operating losses since our inception. As of
June 30, 2001, our accumulated deficit was $51.0 million. We expect to spend
substantial additional amounts to increase marketing, direct sales, imaging
services, training and customer support needed to support our increasing
revenues.
We derive revenues both from selling our products and providing imaging
services. We generated approximately 70% of our revenues for the six months
ended June 30, 2001 from sales of our
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
27
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
products. Our product revenue consists of sales of solid-state gamma cameras,
custom designed chairs and accessories such as printers and collimators. We
generated approximately 30% of our revenues for the six months ended June 30,
2001 from our imaging services business. We derive our imaging services revenue
from the provision of mobile nuclear imaging services. We provide mobile nuclear
imaging services to physician offices, which include cardiology and internal
medicine practices, on a turn-key basis utilizing our proprietary DIGIRAD(TM)
2020TC Imager(TM) gamma camera and the SPECTour(TM) chair. We offer this imaging
service on a contract basis, with the typical contract length being one to three
years and comprised of one day of service per week. As we continue to grow, we
expect our imaging services revenue to account for a majority of total revenues.
We sell our products to customers in North America and Japan. A relatively small
number of customers account for a significant percentage of our revenues. For
the year ended December 31, 2000, three product customers accounted for 15.9%,
11.6% and 10.1% of our consolidated revenues. However, for the six months ended
June 30, 2001, no product customers accounted for 10% or more of consolidated
revenues. No imaging services customer accounted for 10% or more of our
consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2000 or the six months
ended June 30, 2001.
We experience seasonality in the service of our DIS customers. For example, our
study volumes typically decline from our second fiscal quarter to our third
fiscal quarter due to summer holidays and vacation schedules. We may also
experience declining study volumes in December due to holidays and in the first
quarter due to weather conditions in certain parts of the country. These
seasonal factors may lead to fluctuations in our quarterly operating results. It
is difficult for us to evaluate the degree to which the summer slowdown, winter
holiday variations and inclement weather may make our revenues unpredictable in
the future. We may not be able to reduce our expenses, including our debt
service obligations, quickly enough to respond to these declines in revenue,
which would make our business difficult to operate and would harm our financial
results.

PRODUCTS--Our product revenue increased to $9.8 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2001 from $1.5 million for the comparable period in 2000. This increase
was due to increased sales of our gamma cameras, from six in the first six
months of 2000 to 36 in the comparable period in 2001. Our backlog of gamma
camera orders was 58 as of June 30, 2001. Product revenue accounted for 70% of
total revenues for the first six months of 2001 versus 100% for the first six
months of 2000.
IMAGING SERVICES--Our imaging services revenue was $4.2 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2001. We did not have any imaging services revenue during
the six months ended June 30, 2000, as we did not start this business until the
second half of 2000. We performed approximately 6,900 procedures for the six
months ended June 30, 2001, and were operating 18 mobile servicing routes as of
June 30, 2001. Imaging services revenue accounted for 30% of total revenues for
the first six months of 2001.
COST OF REVENUES
TOTAL COST OF REVENUES--Total cost of revenues increased to $9.8 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2001 from $3.6 million for the same period in 2000.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PRODUCTS--Cost of product revenue consists primarily of materials, labor and
other costs associated with the products we sell. Our cost of product revenue
increased to $6.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from
$3.6 million for the comparable period in 2000. The increase in the cost of
product revenue for the first six months of 2001 was due primarily to the
increase in the volume of cameras and accessories sold. However, cost reductions
in the manufacturing process partially offset the increase. As a percentage of
product revenue, cost of product revenue was 66% in the first six months of
2001.
IMAGING SERVICES--Cost of imaging services revenue consists primarily of labor,
radiopharmaceuticals, equipment depreciation and other costs associated with
provision of services. Our cost of imaging services revenue was $3.4 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2001. There was no cost of imaging services
revenue for the comparable period in 2000. As a percentage of imaging services
revenue, cost of services revenue was 81% in the first six months of 2001.
GROSS PROFIT
TOTAL GROSS PROFIT--Total gross profit increased to $4.2 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2001 from a loss of $2.1 million for the comparable period
in 2000.
PRODUCTS--Our product gross profit increased to $3.4 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2001 from a loss of $2.1 million for the comparable period in
2000. This increase was primarily due to reductions in our cost per unit from
volume discounts, design modifications, and better utilization of our
manufacturing capacity. Although we expect continued gross profit improvements
with increased sales as we better utilize our existing manufacturing capacity
and benefit from economies of scale, we expect such improvements, if any, to
occur at a slower rate than those experienced between 2000 and 2001.
IMAGING SERVICES--Our imaging services gross profit was $0.8 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2001. There was no comparable gross profit from imaging
services for the six months ended June 30, 2000 because at that date we had not
yet entered the imaging services business.
OPERATING EXPENSES
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT--Research and development expenses consist primarily of
costs associated with the design, development, testing, deployment and
enhancement of our products and manufacturing capabilities. Research and
development expenses increased to $1.3 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2001 from $1.1 million in the comparable period in 2000. An increase in
headcount, materials and other direct and indirect costs in support of our
continued product development account primarily for the increase in research and
development expenses for the first six months of 2001. For the first six months
of 2001, research and development expenses amounted to 9% of total revenue.
SALES AND MARKETING--Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries,
commissions, bonuses, recruiting costs, travel, marketing materials and trade
shows. Sales and marketing expenses increased to $4.0 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2001 from $1.3 million in the comparable period in 2000. Our
continued development of our sales and marketing functions to support the sales
of our gamma camera and the growth of our mobile nuclear imaging services
business accounted primarily for the increase in sales and marketing expenses.
For the first six months of 2001, sales and marketing expenses amounted to 29%
of total revenue.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE--General and administrative expenses consist
primarily of salaries and other related costs for finance, human resources and
other personnel, as well as accounting, legal and other professional fees.
General and administrative expenses increased to $2.9 million for the six
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
29
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
months ended June 30, 2001 from $1.1 million in the comparable period in 2000.
Increased headcount and related costs account primarily for the increase in
general and administrative expenses. For the first six months of 2001, general
and administrative expenses amounted to 21% of total revenue.
AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS--Intangible assets primarily represent
acquired customer contracts, a covenant not-to-compete, and the capitalized
costs related to our patent and trademark portfolio. Amortization of intangibles
increased to $315,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $3,000 in the
comparable period in 2000. The acquisition of customer contracts from Florida
Cardiology and Nuclear Imaging Systems, Inc. in the third and fourth quarters of
2000 primarily accounted for the increase in amortization of intangible assets.
DEFERRED COMPENSATION AND OTHER NON-CASH STOCK COMPENSATION CHARGES--Deferred
stock compensation represents the difference between the estimated fair value of
our common stock and the exercise price of options at the date of grant. In
connection with the grant of stock options to employees and directors, we
recorded deferred compensation of $2.0 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2001. We recorded this amount as a component of stockholders' equity
and will amortize the amount as a charge to operations over the vesting period
of the options. We recorded amortization of deferred compensation and other
non-cash compensation charges of $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30,
2001. The compensation charges relate to cost of revenues, research and
development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses in the
amount of $197,000, $61,000, $421,000 and $384,000, respectively, for the six
months ended June 30, 2001. No deferred compensation was incurred or amortized
during the six months ended June 30, 2000.
INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest expense increased to $545,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001
from $221,000 for the comparable period in 2000. Increased borrowing under notes
payable and capital leases in the latter part of 2000 and the first six months
of 2001 account primarily for the increase in interest expense.
INTEREST INCOME
Interest income increased moderately to $145,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2001 from $124,000 for the comparable period in 2000 primarily due to
slightly higher average cash balances.
NET LOSS
Net loss increased to $5.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from
$5.7 million in the comparable period in 2000 as a result of the factors
described above.
COMPARISON OF YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000, 1999 AND 1998
REVENUES
TOTAL REVENUES--Total revenues increased to $7.1 million in 2000 from
$0.3 million in 1999. Total revenues decreased in 1999 from $1.9 million in
1998. The decrease in 1999 from 1998 was due to $1.6 million of non-recurring
license fees and milestone payments recognized in 1998 under a collaborative
supply and development agreement.
PRODUCTS--Our product revenue increased to $5.8 million in 2000 from
$0.3 million in 1999 and $0.3 million in 1998. Sales of our gamma cameras, first
sold in 2000, account for the increase in product revenue. Product revenue
accounted for 82% of total revenues in 2000 versus 100% in 1999 and 18% in 1998.
IMAGING SERVICES--Our imaging services revenue was $1.3 million in 2000. We did
not have any imaging services revenue in 1999 or 1998. The 2000 imaging services
revenue was the result of our
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
30
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
entry into the mobile nuclear imaging services business. Imaging services
revenue accounted for 18% of total revenues in 2000.
COST OF REVENUES
TOTAL COST OF REVENUES--Total cost of revenues increased to $10.7 million in
2000 from $0.3 million in 1999 and $0.4 million in 1998.
PRODUCTS--Our cost of product revenue increased to $9.8 million in 2000 from
$0.3 million in 1999 and $0.4 million in 1998. Costs associated with the launch
of our gamma cameras were the primary reason for the increase in cost of product
revenue in 2000.
IMAGING SERVICES--Our cost of imaging services revenue was $0.8 million in 2000.
There was no cost of service revenue for 1999 or 1998. As a percentage of
imaging services revenue, cost of service revenue was 67% in 2000.
OPERATING EXPENSES
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT--Research and development expenses decreased to
$2.4 million in 2000 from $10.1 million in 1999. Research and development
expenses increased in 1999 from $5.4 million in 1998. Our transition from
development to production prior to the first shipments of our gamma cameras in
the first quarter of 2000 was the primary reason for the decrease in research
and development expenses. Most direct and indirect expenses charged to research
and development expenses in 1999 and 1998 were accounted for as manufacturing
expenses in 2000 when we began commercial production. Research and development
expenses amounted to 34% of total revenues in 2000. The increase in research and
development expenses from 1998 to 1999 was related primarily to an increase in
headcount, materials and other direct and indirect costs for the completion of
alpha and beta units of our gamma camera.
SALES AND MARKETING--Sales and marketing expenses increased to $3.6 million in
2000 from $1.5 million in 1999 and $0.6 million in 1998. These increases in
sales and marketing expense were related primarily to the build out of our sales
infrastructure to support the sales of our gamma camera and the start-up of our
mobile nuclear imaging services business. Sales and marketing expenses amounted
to 51% of total revenues in 2000.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE--General and administrative expenses increased to
$2.9 million in 2000 from $2.0 million in 1999 and decreased in 1999 from
$2.5 million in 1998. The changes in general and administrative expense were
primarily due to corresponding changes in headcount and related costs. General
and administrative expenses amounted to 41% of total revenues in 2000.
AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS--Amortization of intangible assets was
$209,000 in 2000. We had no significant intangible asset amortization in 1999
and 1998. The acquisition of customer contracts from Florida Cardiology and
Nuclear Imaging Systems, Inc. primarily accounted for the increase.
DEFERRED COMPENSATION AND OTHER NON-CASH STOCK COMPENSATION CHARGES--In
connection with the grant of stock options to employees and directors, we
recorded deferred compensation of $0.8 million for 2000. We recorded this amount
as a component of stockholders' equity and will amortize the amount as a charge
to operations over the vesting period of the options. We recorded amortization
of deferred compensation and other non-cash stock compensation charges of
$0.3 million during 2000. The compensation charges relate to cost of revenues,
research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative
expenses in the amount of $64,000, $6,000, $37,000, and $189,000, respectively,
during 2000.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
31
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest expense increased to $780,000 in 2000 from $87,000 in 1999 and $46,000
in 1998. The addition of $2.0 million in notes payable for general corporate
purposes and working capital, as well as a $4.2 million increase in capital
leases, were the primary reasons for the increase in interest expense.
INTEREST INCOME
Interest income decreased to $243,000 in 2000 from $360,000 in 1999 and $903,000
in 1998. Declining average cash balances resulting from operational spending
along with asset and property and equipment acquisitions are primarily
responsible for the decrease in interest income.
NET LOSS
Net loss increased to $13.5 million in 2000 from $13.2 million in 1999 and
$6.2 million in 1998 as a result of the factors described above.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We have funded our operations principally through private equity financings
supplemented with long-term debt and equipment financing arrangements. The
equity investments were in the form of six series of preferred stock offerings
between March 1995 and August 2001, which yielded aggregate net proceeds
totaling approximately $66 million. At June 30, 2001, our outstanding borrowings
totaled $11.4 million.
As of June 30, 2001, cash and cash equivalents totaled $3.5 million compared to
$6.6 million at December 31, 2000. We currently invest our cash reserves in
United States investment grade corporate-debt securities with maturities not
exceeding 12 months and money market funds.
Net cash used in operating activities amounted to approximately $15.0 million,
$12.1 million, $5.5 million and $9.1 million for the years ended December 31,
2000, 1999, 1998 and for the six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively. For
these periods, net cash used in operating activities resulted primarily from
operating losses and net increases in accounts receivable and inventories
resulting from the growth in our business.
Net cash used in investing activities amounted to approximately $7.2 million,
$0.9 million, $1.7 million and $2.5 million for the years ended December 31,
2000, 1999, 1998 and the six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively. Investing
activities consist primarily of capital expenditures and asset acquisitions.
Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to approximately
$26.2 million, $2.0 million, $1.5 million and $8.6 million for the years ended
December 31, 2000, 1999, 1998 and the six months ended June 30, 2001,
respectively. Private placement of preferred stock and proceeds from bank
borrowings and lease financings were primarily responsible for the net cash
provided by financing activities. We raised $17.9 million in 2000 and
$5.8 million in the first six months of 2001 through the private placement of
Series E preferred stock. In addition, we raised an additional $8.4 million in
August 2001 through the private placement of Series F preferred stock.
In July 2001, we entered into an agreement with a bank for a $4.3 million
revolving line of credit to provide working capital for the product business.
Borrowings under the line of credit accrue interest at the bank's floating prime
rate plus 2% and are limited based on a formula that takes into account eligible
amounts of accounts receivables, inventory and other factors. We are required to
make monthly interest payments on this line of credit, which expires in
July 2002 with any unpaid balance
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
32
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
due upon expiration. At June 30, 2001, the outstanding balance under this
facility was $2.4 million. We intend to repay this loan in full with proceeds
from this offering.
In January 2001, we entered into a loan and security agreement for a revolving
line of credit to provide working capital for our imaging services business. We
are authorized to draw up to $2.5 million and can draw an additional
$2.5 million upon approval by the lender's credit committee. The borrowings
under the line of credit accrue interest at the higher of prime plus 1.25% or
10.25%. The revolving line of credit expires in January 2004. As of June 30,
2001, the outstanding balance under this loan and security agreement totaled
$0.6 million. We intend to repay this loan in full with proceeds from this
offering.
In November 1999, we entered into a bank loan and security agreement to borrow
up to $3.0 million. In August 2000, we modified the November 1999 loan agreement
to borrow an additional $1.0 million. Borrowings under this agreement accrue
interest at rates between 13.53% and 14.4%. We are required to make monthly
principal and interest payments of $156,273 through November 2002. As of
June 30, 2001, $2.4 million is outstanding under these loan and security
agreements. We intend to repay this loan in full with proceeds from this
offering.
We have notes payable to stockholders totaling $0.7 million, which bear interest
at 6.35% per year. The notes mature on December 31 of the year immediately
following the first year in which the Company generates cash from operations,
which is expected to be after 2001.
As of June 30, 2001, we had capital lease obligations totaling $5.5 million.
These obligations are secured by the specific equipment financed under each
lease and will be repaid monthly over the lease terms, which range from 36 to
63 months.
As of December 31, 2000, we had federal and California income tax net operating
loss carryforwards of approximately $39.9 million and $27.9 million,
respectively. The difference between the federal and California tax operating
loss carryforwards is primarily attributable to the 50% limitation in the
utilization of California tax net operating loss carryforwards. The federal and
California tax net operating loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2006 and
2002, respectively, unless previously used. We also have federal and California
research and development and other tax credit carryforwards of approximately
$1.6 million and $1.3 million, respectively, which will begin to expire in 2005
unless previously used. We have provided a 100% valuation allowance against the
related deferred tax assets as realization of such tax benefits is not assured.
Our ability to use the net operating losses and credits may be subject to
substantial annual limitations due to the "change of ownership" provisions of
the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. The annual limitation
may result in the expiration of the net operating losses before utilization.
We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, revenues to be derived
from the sale of our products and imaging services, current and anticipated
credit facilities and the net proceeds of this offering will be sufficient to
fund our operations for at least twelve months. However, our future capital
requirements will depend on numerous factors, including market acceptance of our
products and imaging services, the resources we devote to expanding the market
for our current products and imaging services and to developing new products,
regulatory changes, competition and technological developments, and potential
future merger and acquisition activity.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to
the increase or decrease in the amount of interest income we can earn on our
investment portfolio and on the increase or decrease in the amount of interest
expense we must pay with respect to our various outstanding debt
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
33
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
instruments. Our risk associated with fluctuating interest rates is limited,
however, to certain of our long-term debt and capital lease obligations, the
interest rates under which are closely tied to market rates, and our investments
in interest rate sensitive financial instruments. Under our current policies, we
do not use interest rate derivative instruments to manage exposure to interest
rate changes. We attempt to ensure the safety and preservation of our invested
principal funds by limiting default risk, market risk and reinvestment risk. We
mitigate default risk by investing in investment grade securities. A
hypothetical 100 basis point adverse move in interest rates along the entire
interest rate yield curve would not materially affect the fair value of our
interest sensitive financial instruments. Declines in interest rates over time
will, however, reduce our interest income while increases in interest rates over
time will increase our interest expense.
INFLATION
We do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our business or
operating results during the periods presented.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
On January 1, 2001, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, or
SFAS, No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES.
This statement establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that
every derivative instrument, including certain derivative instruments imbedded
in other contracts, be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or
liability measured at its fair value. The statement also requires that changes
in the derivative's fair value be recognized in earnings unless specific hedge
accounting criteria are met. We believe the adoption of SFAS No. 133 will not
have an effect on our financial statements because we do not engage in
derivative or hedging activities.
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141,
BUSINESS COMBINATIONS, and SFAS No. 142, GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS. SFAS
No. 141 is effective for all business combinations completed after June 30,
2001. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2001; however, certain provisions of this Statement apply to goodwill and other
intangible assets acquired between July 1, 2001 and the effective date of SFAS
No. 142. Major provisions of these statements and their effective dates for the
Company are as follows: (i) all business combinations initiated after June 30,
2001 must use the purchase method of accounting. The pooling of interest method
of accounting is prohibited except for transactions initiated before July 1,
2001; (ii) intangible assets acquired in a business combination must be recorded
separately from goodwill if they arise from contractual or other legal rights or
are separable from the acquired entity and can be sold, transferred, licensed,
rented or exchanged, either individually or as part of a related contract, asset
or liability; (iii) goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives
acquired after June 30, 2001, will not be amortized. Effective January 1, 2002,
all previously recognized goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives
will no longer be subject to amortization; (iv) effective January 1, 2002,
goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives will be tested for
impairment annually and whenever there is an impairment indicator and (v) all
acquired goodwill must be assigned to reporting units for purpose of impairment
testing and segment reporting. The Company is currently evaluating the impact
that SFAS Nos. 141 and 142 will have on its financial reporting requirements.

Business
OVERVIEW
We are the first and only company to have developed and commercialized a
solid-state, digital gamma camera for use in nuclear medicine. We believe this
will allow us to become a leading provider of gamma cameras and mobile nuclear
cardiac imaging services. Our patented solid-state camera offers many advantages
over a conventional vacuum tube camera, such as smaller size, increased
mobility, increased durability, improved image quality, expanded clinical
applications and enhanced patient comfort. All other gamma cameras on the market
currently use conventional vacuum tube technology. We believe the features and
benefits of our technology will encourage healthcare providers to choose our
camera over conventional cameras for both initial and replacement purchases. In
addition, because of our camera's increased mobility and durability, we believe
it is ideally suited for use in a mobile imaging services application that has
not been widely available until now. We are initially focusing on the nuclear
cardiology segment of the nuclear imaging market, which is the largest and
fastest growing segment of that market.
Our proprietary technology allows for both a significant reduction in the size
of a gamma camera and a significant improvement in spatial resolution which is a
measurement of the quality of the image produced. Conventional gamma camera
photo-detectors are approximately four inches in height. Our photo-detectors are
only 0.012 inches high, providing an approximate 350-to-1 reduction in detector
size that makes the camera both thinner and lighter. While conventional cameras
use an average calculation to approximate the location of the gamma rays used to
create the image, our cameras determine the precise location of these gamma
rays. This improves spatial resolution and allows our camera to offer a
significant improvement in image quality over the conventional vacuum tube
technology.
We are currently addressing the rapidly growing nuclear cardiology market in the
following two ways:
- NUCLEAR CAMERA SALES--We are selling our camera and related products to
physician offices, imaging centers, hospitals and research laboratories,
thus providing customers with a technologically advanced alternative to
conventional vacuum tube gamma cameras.
- MOBILE NUCLEAR CARDIAC IMAGING SERVICES--We are also providing mobile
nuclear imaging services, as described in this prospectus, to physician
offices, including cardiology and internal medicine practices. Our turn-key
mobile imaging solution provides on-site access to all the benefits of our
advanced diagnostic imaging technology, without requiring customers to make
an up-front payment, hire additional personnel, obtain regulatory approval
or establish a dedicated nuclear imaging suite. Our service model enables
physicians to capture the revenue that would have otherwise been lost
because the patient was referred elsewhere. In addition, it provides us with
a recurring revenue stream from the servicing of our customers on a routine
basis.
We began commercial production of our first solid-state, digital gamma camera
product, marketed as the DIGIRAD-TM- 2020TC Imager-TM- gamma camera, in
January 2000 and shipped our first unit in March 2000. From our first shipment
through June 30, 2001, we had received orders for 117 cameras, 59 of which had
been shipped. We expect that 38 units in our backlog will be shipped by
December 31, 2001 with the remainder expected to be shipped in 2002. In addition
to numerous independent cardiologists, customers that have purchased our cameras
include hospitals, such as The University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
and Children's Hospital Boston and research laboratories, such as the Proctor &
Gamble Company and Nihon Medi-Physics Co., Ltd. Of the 117 cameras, 111 were
ordered by customers in the United States and six were purchased by customers in
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BUSINESS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Japan. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000, three of our product
customers each accounted for over ten percent of our consolidated revenues.
We established our mobile nuclear cardiac imaging services operations in the
third quarter of 2000. As of June 30, 2001, we were providing nuclear cardiac
imaging services to approximately 101 physician offices in California, Delaware,
Florida, Indiana, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio and Pennsylvania,
and were operating 18 mobile servicing routes, each of which is serviced by one
van and one camera. During the six month period ended June 30, 2001, our mobile
imaging services business performed approximately 6,900 imaging procedures. No
one physician office has accounted for more than ten percent of our consolidated
revenues.
We intend to continue expanding our imaging services business throughout the
United States, and we have completed license applications to expand into another
12 states.
INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING
Diagnostic imaging technology generates representations of the internal anatomy
or physiology, primarily through non-invasive means. Diagnostic imaging
facilitates the early diagnosis of diseases and disorders, often minimizing the
cost and amount of care required and reducing the need for more costly and
invasive procedures. Currently, there are five major types of non-invasive
diagnostic imaging technologies available: x-ray; magnetic resonance imaging, or
MRI; computerized tomography, or CT; ultrasound; and nuclear imaging.
The first four of these technologies, x-ray, MRI, CT and ultrasound primarily
allow the physician to see the anatomical structure of internal organs.
Anatomical imaging offers the physician a limited structural assessment of the
patient's anatomy. Nuclear imaging, however, offers the ability to
non-invasively measure varying degrees of physiological activity, including
blood flow, organ function, metabolic activity, biochemical activity, and other
functional activity within the body. This functional information allows for the
earlier diagnosis of certain diseases than the information provided by
anatomical imaging procedures.
NUCLEAR IMAGING
Nuclear medicine is used primarily in cardiovascular, oncology and neurological
applications. According to a 2001 study by Frost & Sullivan, a leading marketing
consulting company, there were approximately 15.5 million nuclear imaging
procedures performed in the U.S. in 2000. We believe over 25 million procedures
were performed worldwide. The nuclear imaging market consists of two primary
technologies, gamma cameras and dedicated positron emission tomography, or PET,
machines. Frost & Sullivan states that gamma cameras are currently the preferred
choice for the majority of nuclear medicine procedures. The most widely used
type of gamma camera is a single photon emission computed tomography, or SPECT,
camera.
In a typical nuclear imaging procedure, the patient is injected with a small
amount of radioactive drug, or radiopharmaceutical, which is quickly broken down
by the body. Depending on the composition of the radiopharmaceutical, the
functionality of the tissue and the procedure being used, the
radiopharmaceutical localizes differently in normal versus abnormal tissues. The
physician uses images taken from a gamma camera and related clinical information
to evaluate the physiological performance of the organ being examined.

TRENDS IN NUCLEAR CARDIAC IMAGING
Nuclear cardiology is the largest and fastest growing segment of the nuclear
imaging market. Frost & Sullivan reports that of the 15.5 million nuclear
imaging procedures done in the U.S. in 2000, 7.9 million, or 51%, were
cardiology related procedures. Nuclear imaging of the heart provides healthcare
professionals valuable information related to blood flow, to, through, and from
the heart as well as information on the heart muscle. Radiopharmaceuticals are
unique in their ability to remain in the heart muscle, enabling visualization
during a nuclear cardiac imaging procedure.
Increasingly, a nuclear cardiac imaging procedure is the first non-invasive,
diagnostic imaging procedure performed on patients with suspected heart disease.
Following a nuclear study, patients with suspected heart disease will often be
referred to more invasive diagnostic or therapeutic treatments. These treatments
may include: angiography, an x-ray procedure by which catheters are inserted
into an artery or vein to take pictures of blood vessels; angioplasty, a
procedure by which catheters with balloon tips are used to widen narrowed
arteries; or cardiac surgery. Given the clinical advantages of nuclear cardiac
images, many payors are requiring nuclear studies prior to the more invasive and
expensive diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.
The number of nuclear cardiac imaging procedures grew approximately 23% from
1999 to 2000, and is projected to grow 25% in 2001. Additionally, outpatient
cardiology is projected to grow 25% annually from 2001 to 2005. Reasons for the
rapid growth in nuclear cardiac imaging procedures include:
- Valuable clinical information;
- Cost-effectiveness;
- Non-invasive nature;
- Established reimbursement; and
- An increase in heart disease.
Frost & Sullivan divides the nuclear cardiac imaging procedure market into four
segments: hospital in-patient, hospital out-patient, cardiology practices and
diagnostic imaging centers. Traditionally, nuclear medicine procedures have been
performed in hospitals under the supervision of nuclear physicians. Although a
number of cardiology practices with more than five cardiologists have
incorporated nuclear medicine into their practice setting, most nuclear cardiac
procedures are currently referred to hospitals and imaging centers, where the
cardiologist loses clinical control and receives minimal or no economic benefit.
DIGIRAD'S MARKET OPPORTUNITY
Our technology allows us to address the following two markets:
- NUCLEAR CAMERA SALES--Frost & Sullivan projects that the U.S. gamma camera
market for nuclear imaging will be approximately $325 million in 2001, and
is expected to grow at an average annual rate of approximately 5% from 2001
to 2007. We estimate that the non-U.S. gamma camera market is approximately
$300 million. In addition, we estimate that the market for technical
services is an additional 10% to 15% of a camera's purchase price per year
over the life of the contract, which is typically 4 to 5 years.
- MOBILE NUCLEAR CARDIAC IMAGING SERVICES--We believe the market opportunity
for our mobile nuclear imaging services business is approximately $2.6
billion. This market size is based on our target market of procedures
performed in hospital, outpatient facilities, diagnostic imaging centers,
physician offices and the following:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
37
BUSINESS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- A report by Frost & Sullivan that approximately 7.9 million nuclear
cardiac imaging procedures were performed in the U.S. in 2000;
- Frost & Sullivan's estimate, based on a more limited study, that
approximately 56% of U.S. nuclear cardiac imaging procedures were
performed in a hospital outpatient facility, diagnostic imaging
center or physician office in 2000; and
- Our average net revenue of approximately $600 per procedure.
Our proprietary technology enables physicians to perform office-based nuclear
imaging procedures that were previously referred elsewhere, with limited
disruption to their current practice. Therefore, we believe our solutions will
accelerate the transition of nuclear cardiac imaging procedures to non-hospital
sites, in particular cardiology and internal medicine practices.

OUR BUSINESS STRATEGY
Our goal is to rapidly expand our business and increase our revenues by offering
a complete nuclear imaging solution to physician offices, imaging centers,
hospitals and research laboratories. The key elements of our business strategy
include:
- LEVERAGE OUR PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY TO INCREASE SALES OF PRODUCTS AND
IMAGING SERVICES--Our proprietary technology provides us with the unique
opportunity to capitalize on both the camera sales and mobile imaging
services market. We intend to increase sales of our camera and related
products by capturing increased market share in existing channels and
selling to physicians who can now for the first time place our camera into
their practice with limited disruption. We also plan on increasing the
number of routes and cardiologists served through our imaging services
business, allowing office-based physicians to offer patients the convenience
of receiving high quality nuclear imaging services in the office setting. In
addition, our imaging services model, which includes a leasing services
option, provides us with a recurring revenue stream through the servicing of
our customers on a routine basis;
- AGGRESSIVELY TARGET THE GROWING NUCLEAR CARDIOLOGY MARKET--Our sales force
is primarily focused on the cardiology market, the largest and fastest
growing segment of the nuclear imaging market. While we also sell our
products to hospitals and imaging centers, our main focus is to office-based
cardiologists and internal medicine practices. We are currently the only
company to commercially offer office-based cardiologists a small, mobile,
solid-state, digital gamma camera solution. This allows cardiologists to
capture business that is currently referred to hospitals or imaging centers,
creating additional income, and improving the service they provide to their
patients;
- EXPAND OUR INTEGRATED, DIRECT SALES FORCE--We use a direct sales force,
supplemented by distributors internationally and in selected domestic
geographies. This improves our ability to control our customer interface as
well as focus and direct our sales efforts to a much greater extent than if
we relied solely on third-party distributors. Investing in our own direct
sales organization allows us to build a distribution asset that can be of
great value over time as we look to grow the business by potentially
providing additional products and services through this sales channel. Our
direct sales force is integrated, in that there is a sales team within each
geographic region that shares responsibility for customers and overall
results. Although each member of the team has a particular focus, either
selling cameras or imaging services, collectively, they are responsible for
the success of the geographic region. This allows us to better forecast
sales and manage the cost of our selling efforts, better meet the demands of
our customers, and truly offer our customers a solution tailored to their
needs;
- LEVERAGE OUR PROPRIETARY MANUFACTURING PROCESSES--We believe our
manufacturing process gives us a key competitive advantage by enabling us to
manufacture products that use our proprietary technology in a cost efficient
manner. Our manufacturing strategy combines our internal design expertise
and proprietary process technology with the advanced manufacturing
capabilities and capacity of our strategic manufacturing relationships. We
have achieved, and anticipate additional, significant reductions in our
manufacturing costs due to increased production volumes, improved yields and
product design enhancements;
- EXPAND ACCEPTANCE OF ADDITIONAL CLINICAL APPLICATIONS--The design of our
camera provides the capability to perform some nuclear imaging procedures
that were not previously available. Additionally, our current technology
allows nuclear imaging to be performed in locations within the hospital,
including the operating room, emergency department, ICU, and bedside. We are
working with clinicians to understand the ways in which they use our camera
to validate the use of
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
40
BUSINESS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
our camera for these new clinical applications. In addition, we believe that
these new applications of our camera do not constitute new procedures for
which we would have to obtain further regulatory approval. We believe this
validation will increase the number of hospitals interested in purchasing
our camera; and
- CONTINUE TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT--We continue to refine and improve our
proprietary solid-state detector technology. By improving our technology, we
plan to improve the performance of our cameras while at the same time reduce
manufacturing costs. We also plan on designing and building a large field of
view gamma camera using our technology that will expand clinical
applications for our product. In addition, we plan to expand our technology
for other uses such as computed tomography, which generates
three-dimensional images of the body's internal organs. We also plan to
develop gamma cameras specifically designed for research.
CURRENT PRODUCTS
2020TC IMAGER-TM- CAMERA--Our initial product is the 2020TC Imager camera, which
has an imaging area of eight inches by eight inches. The imaging area of most
conventional vacuum tube cameras is approximately fifteen inches by twenty
inches. In addition, in significant contrast to conventional vacuum tube camera
heads, which are typically greater than 14 inches thick and weigh upwards of
1,500 pounds, our imager heads are less than four inches thick and weigh about
60 pounds. The DIGIRAD 2020TC Imager provides true camera mobility, solid-state
reliability, excellent image quality and expanded clinical applications.
Approximately 75% of all nuclear imaging procedures are organ-specific rather
than whole body imaging. Our 2020TC Imager can perform all organ specific
imaging because these procedures do not require the large field-of-view
associated with the conventional gamma camera imaging heads.
SPECTOUR(TM) CHAIR--Unlike conventional systems where the patient lies on their
back with their left arm above their head while the camera circles around the
patient, the DIGIRAD SPECTour chair allows the patient to be seated upright with
their arms resting at shoulder level as they slowly rotate in front of the
2020TC Imager camera's head. The seated position produces improved image quality
and is more comfortable to the patient.
SPECTPAK-TM---This product was recently introduced in the second quarter of 2001
and is sold exclusively to the nuclear cardiology market. It combines a
modified, feature enhanced version of our 2020TC Imager camera with our SPECTour
chair, to provide a more optimal product for the cardiology market segment.
We have developed an image acquisition and processing software system for the
DIGIRAD 2020TC Imager camera and SPECTour chair under a license agreement with
Segami Corporation. The image acquisition software is designed to take advantage
of the unique characteristics of our solid-state detector technology. The
processing software is Segami's industry popular Mirage-TM- package. It runs on
a Microsoft NT platform and has a graphical user interface.
PRODUCTS UNDER DEVELOPMENT
We plan to introduce a next generation single platform device that incorporates
our camera and chair into one unit in late 2002. This configuration is designed
to enhance image quality in cardiac applications and requires less working
space.
We intend to introduce a multiple-head large field-of-view camera in 2003. This
camera will be suitable for whole body imaging and will compete directly with
the current large field of view vacuum
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tube designs. We believe that we will be able to offer significantly improved
products based on solid-state detector technology such as a camera head that can
be placed closer to the body and multiple heads that will decrease the
processing time.
OPERATIONS
MANUFACTURING
We have been manufacturing our cameras since March 2000. Our manufacturing
strategy combines our internal design expertise and proprietary process
technology with the advanced manufacturing capabilities and capacities of third
parties. We believe our manufacturing processes give us a key competitive
advantage by enabling us to manufacture products that use our proprietary
technology in a cost-efficient manner.
The general manufacturing process for the detector module includes procurement
of key components from key semiconductor manufacturers. We first perform
electrical tests on these components and then we deliver these components to
microelectronics packaging, either to our internal operation or to third
parties, for component sub-assembly. We then perform final assembly of the
detector module and test the detector module. The detector modules are then
assembled into a motherboard that is mounted in the camera detector head. The
camera's mechanical and electronics systems are assembled separately in our
facilities. As is done with the modules, the key components of the camera's
mechanical and electrical systems are designed by us, and either outsourced or
built internally. These key components include a personal computer, power
supplies, cooling system, liquid crystal display, controller boards, data
acquisition and communication system, and the mechanical structure of the
camera. We perform sub-assembly tests and final system performance tests in our
facilities.
All components used in the product are available from multiple sources with the
exception of the Segami image acquisition and processing software. All suppliers
of critical materials, components and subassemblies undergo ongoing quality
certification by us, with the objective of maintaining strong relationships with
the best suppliers. We utilize enterprise resource planning software and
collaborative web-based software to ensure efficient and secure handling of
inventory and material. The enterprise resource planning software helps us to
manage our inventory and materials by centralizing our purchasing procedures,
monitoring our inventory supplies and streamlining our billing methods. The
collaborative web-based software is a secure electronic network that enables our
employees to access our documents from anywhere in the world via the Internet.
We successfully completed a certification audit performed by the state of
California's Food and Drug Branch in the first quarter of 2000. As part of this
audit, the California Food and Drug Branch recognized our compliance with the
"Good Manufacturing Practices" requirements of the federal Food and Drug
Administration, or the FDA. The FDA has issued us an Establishment Registration.
We have also obtained pre-market clearance from the FDA, enabling us to market
our 2020TC Imager camera and SPECTour chair. California's Food and Drug Branch
also issued us a State of California Medical Device Manufacturing License. We
also received regulatory approval from the Japanese Ministry of Health in
October 2000, which is similar to our FDA Establishment Registration, and expect
to receive a Canadian Medical Device license in the third quarter of 2001. In
addition, the Canadian government requires approval of a gamma camera model by
the Canadian Standards Association before the model can be sold in Canada, and
we expect to receive such approval in the third quarter of 2001. In conjunction
with implementing Good Manufacturing Practices and product safety standards, we
expect to obtain a product approval in the third quarter of 2001 from
Underwriters Laboratories Inc. Underwriters Laboratories Inc. is an independent,
not-for-profit product safety testing and certification organization, and some
gamma camera customers in the United States require that the model of the
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BUSINESS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
camera they purchase pass a test developed for medical products by this
organization. In early 2002, we plan to initiate the drive for ISO-9000 quality
certification with the expectation of receiving certification in late 2002.
ISO-9000 is a compilation of quality standards promulgated by the International
Organization for Standardization, and a manufacturer that has been certified to
use a quality program that meets ISO-9000 does not have to independently test
each product that it sells in the European Community.
IMAGING SERVICES
Our imaging services business is operated by our Digirad Imaging Solutions
business unit. We established our imaging services operations in the third and
fourth quarters of 2000 by acquiring certain assets of two regional providers of
mobile nuclear imaging services. As of June 30, 2001, we were operating 18
mobile routes, each of which is serviced by one van and camera, and were
providing nuclear cardiac imaging services to approximately 101 physician
offices in California, Delaware, Florida, Indiana, Maryland, New Jersey, North
Carolina, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. In addition, we have completed licenses or
license applications and plan to expand into another 12 states in 2001.
Our imaging services model consists of two primary delivery options. Under our
first option, which we refer to as "mixed billing," we provide the technical
component of nuclear imaging services and bill either the physician or the
patient's third party payor, such as Medicare, on a per procedure basis. When we
bill some third party payors, such as Medicare, we also bill the patient for any
copayment. The physician performs and bills for the technical component, such as
the interpretation of the test. Under our second option, we lease cameras,
related equipment and technical personnel to physicians on a turn-key basis so
that they may deliver imaging services to their patients. The physician then
bills globally for both the technical and professional component. The physician
pays us on a fixed daily lease basis. When we refer to "imaging services" in
this prospectus, we are referring both to our mixed billing option and our
leasing services option. We provide services under a minimum one year contract.
We intend to provide our imaging services in two ways:
- MOBILE ROUTES: Currently, all of our mobile imaging services are performed
using mobile routes. We provide a 2020TC Imager camera, a SPECTour chair,
equipment used to handle and measure the radiopharmaceuticals used in the
procedure, nuclear technician and other services to a clinician's office on
a daily lease basis or a combination of direct payor billing and fee per
study basis; and
- FIXED SITES: We may, in the future, deliver services using fixed sites. We
would install a 2020TC Imager camera, a SPECTour chair, and hot lab
equipment in a clinician's office or other site. Also, we would provide the
nuclear technician and other services to the clinician or site on a per
month or other periodic basis.
We seek to maximize revenue, cash flow and return on assets by actively managing
our fleet to maximize utilization. We employ logistics management systems and
typically schedule imaging services vans for one day per week at a particular
physician's office. Generally, each van consists of a 2020TC Imager camera, a
SPECTour chair, equipment used to handle and measure the radiopharmaceuticals
used in the procedure, a nuclear medicine technician and a clinical assistant.
The vans are typically operated from a regionally-centralized base location and
stored at the base location each evening. Radiopharmaceuticals are ordered each
day in sufficient quantity for the next day's scheduled procedures and are
delivered in the morning before the van leaves for its scheduled appointments
from the base location.

SALES AND DISTRIBUTION
We sell our camera products and our imaging services through a direct sales
force, supplemented by two independent distributors in the United States, an
independent distributor in Canada and a corporate partner in Japan. Our direct
sales force in the United States is responsible for selling both gamma cameras
and imaging services. We utilize a team selling approach with Territory
Managers, and Sales Representatives. Our Territory Managers typically have over
10 years of experience selling sophisticated capital equipment in the medical
market and focus primarily on selling our gamma cameras to end users. Our Sales
Representatives typically have over five years of selling experience and focus
primarily on selling the imaging services solutions, which are marketed under
the Digirad Imaging Solutions name. In addition, our selling teams include Sales
Specialists, which focus on pre-sales support, and Application Specialists,
which focus on post-sales training and support. Both the Sales Specialist and
Application Specialist positions require significant prior work experience as a
Nuclear Medicine Clinical Technologist. We will maintain independent
distributors in those territories where the distributor has demonstrated a
commitment to our business by providing dedicated resources, and where
acceptable performance metrics are met.
Our target markets for the sale of our camera are cardiology practices,
hospitals, and imaging centers. Our experience to date suggests the sales cycle
for camera sales typically ranges from 90 to 180 days for a cardiology practice
and from 180 to 365 days for a hospital, with imaging centers being somewhere in
between. The complexity of the buying organization and their
budgeting/purchasing process for capital equipment determine the length of the
sales cycle.
Our target markets for our mobile nuclear imaging services are primarily
cardiology practices. Our experience to date indicates the sales cycle for these
imaging services customers is generally between 21 and 90 days.
Currently, our United States direct sales organization is made up of a Vice
President of Sales, a Western Region Director, an Eastern Region Director, a
Southern Region Director, eleven direct Territory Managers, eleven Sales
Representatives, four Sales Specialists and three Application Specialists.
Additionally, we have three direct technical service technicians that interact
with our independent technical service provider around the country. Our
independent technical service provider is Universal Service Trends, which has
over 50 technicians covering the entire continental United States.
Though our sales have been primarily focused on the domestic market, we have
established sales channels for international expansion into Japan and Canada. In
January 2000, we entered into a distribution agreement with Mitsui Corporation
to distribute DIGIRAD-TM- products in Japan, primarily to hospitals. In
conjunction with this distribution agreement, Mitsui made a $1 million equity
investment in Digirad in March 2000. We received Japanese Ministry of Health
regulatory approval in October 2000. Product shipments and sales started in
Japan in the fourth quarter of 2000, and as of June 30, 2001, we had sold six
units in Japan. In Canada, we currently have a distributor representing Digirad
and expect Canadian sales and shipments to begin in the fourth quarter of 2001.
All of our cameras are warranted for one year after shipment. The philosophy of
our warranty service is to locate in the field and replace faulty assemblies
with workable units from the service inventory. This approach is greatly
facilitated by the design of the 2020TC Imager camera because all of our cameras
are equipped with diagnostic software and a telephone modem enabling the
diagnostic software to be accessed remotely. This capability allows us to assist
field service personnel in rapidly locating a faulty assembly, and because no
critical assembly weighs more than 50 pounds, shipping assemblies is easily
accomplished via air courier. Service contracts supplement to the one year
warranty

cost the customer 10% to 15% of the purchase price of the cameras annually.
MARKETING
We formally launched the 2020TC Imager camera and the SPECTour chair at the
Society of Nuclear Medicine meeting in June 1999 in Los Angeles. We began
limited product shipments in March 2000, and began full product release in
July 2000. Our continuing marketing efforts include the following:
- Establishing Centers of Excellence for demonstration sites and clinical
studies;
- Participating in major trade show exhibits at meetings sponsored by
organizations such as the American College of Cardiology, the American Heart
Association, the Society of Nuclear Medicine, the Radiological Society of
North America, the European Association of Nuclear Medicine and the Japanese
Society of Nuclear Medicine;
- Advertising in key nuclear medicine and cardiology journals;
- Developing an active medical advisory board;
- Participating in clinical studies and authoring publications through the
Digirad North American Working Group;
- Sending direct mailings to cardiology and nuclear medicine clinicians and
decision makers;
- Preparing sales collateral material, including product brochures, product
CDs, specification sheets, training materials, presentation materials, and
image sheets; and
- Participating in the American College of Nuclear Physicians.
We have been very active in the nuclear medicine community over the last five
years and exhibited earlier prototypes of our product at the last five Society
of Nuclear Medicine meetings. We plan to pursue strategic alliances and
co-promotional efforts with appropriate partners. Such partners may be
pharmaceutical companies selling radiopharmaceuticals, imaging companies,
radiopharmacies, or cardiology companies. These partnerships may consist of
marketing partnerships, joint development efforts, or manufacturing alliances.
TECHNOLOGY
OVERVIEW
The challenge of any camera system is to accurately map the spatial location of
the objects in its field-of-view from the real world to the camera's world.
Optical cameras use lenses to focus the light from a large real-world image
field onto a small image plane where a detector (film or electronic) is located.
However, since gamma rays cannot be focused, the area of the detector of a gamma
camera must be approximately as large as the area of the object being imaged.
CONVENTIONAL TECHNOLOGY
It is very difficult to build a gamma detector that can directly convert the
kinetic energy of a gamma ray photon into an electrical charge. Therefore, most
gamma ray detectors employ a scintillation crystal, or scintillator, to convert
the high energy of a single gamma ray photon into a large number of low energy
optical photons. The vast majority of nuclear medicine gamma cameras in use
today use a single crystal sheet as the scintillator. The area of this crystal
defines the field of view of the camera. Typical fields of view range from 64
square inches to 300 square inches.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
45
BUSINESS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once the gamma rays are converted into optical photons, these photons are then
converted into electrical charges by the next part of the detector, the
photo-detector. Almost all gamma cameras in use today use vacuum tube devices
called photomultiplier tubes as their photo-detectors. The typical
photomultiplier tube has a photosensitive surface of approximately 7 square
inches. In order to cover the entire field of view of the scintillation crystal,
square or hexagonal shaped photomultiplier tubes are packed together in an array
of anywhere from nine to 100 tubes. Optical photons striking anywhere on the
surfaces of the photomultiplier tubes are converted into electrons which are
then multiplied to produce a small electrical current output. These electronic
charges are then passed to the final part of the detector, the readout
electronics, and then into the camera's computer system to be processed into the
digital images viewed by the physician.
A problem with the conventional gamma camera is that it attempts to use an array
of photomultiplier tubes, to spatially resolve the point at which a gamma ray
strikes the surface of the camera. This method, called the Anger method, can
only estimate where the gamma ray strikes. It does so by combining the output
signals of all of the photomultiplier tubes and computing a position as a
function of the weighted average of the individual photomultiplier tube signals.
Because there can be considerable discrepancies between where the gamma ray is
reported to have struck the detector versus where it actually struck the
detector, Anger style gamma cameras can produce blurred images, which in turn
can impede the physician's ability to accurately read the image. While there has
been a large amount of effort spent in improving the performance of Anger style
gamma cameras, the underlying problem still exists: a single-scintillation
crystal, multi-photomultiplier tube based detector must rely upon probabilistic
position estimation.
DIGIRAD'S TECHNOLOGY
Digirad has overcome the fundamental drawback of the Anger method by
constructing a detector which provides total certainty of the spatial location
of the gamma ray. We achieve this certainty by dividing or segmenting the
detector into a large array of individual detection elements whose size equals
the spatial resolution desired, in our case, 3 millimeters by 3 millimeters. A
gamma ray emitted from a patient strikes the detector and the spatial location
of this event is mapped directly to the image. The response function of our
segmented detector is much more precise than that of the Anger style
photomultiplier tube. Furthermore, a segmented detector processes gamma ray
events in parallel; each pixel is an independent detector. In a single-crystal,
Anger style detector, events are processed in a series, one event at a time. In
general, this means segmented gamma cameras can achieve much higher gamma ray
detection rates than single-crystal gamma cameras.
Previous attempts to construct a segmented detector by both industry groups and
academics have been unsuccessful, primarily due to the Anger camera's
photodetector. Given their relative size, instability, and numerous other
factors, Anger style photomultiplier tubes are unsuitable for use in a segmented
detector. A more optimal photodetector is a high-performance silicon photodiode.
Silicon photodiodes can be packed closer, provide solid-state reliability, and
are more efficient at converting the scintillation photons coming from the
scintillation crystal. However, technical difficulties in producing high quality
photodiodes that are reliable and can be used for gamma cameras have been a
major impediment to their use in this application.
We have developed a photodiode that meets these stringent performance
requirements. In addition, over the last 2 years, we have developed a patent
pending manufacturing process for cost-effectively producing these photodiodes
in volume. Our use of silicon photodiodes as photodetectors has, in turn,
enabled the use of a more efficient scintillation crystal in the DIGIRAD-TM-
detector module. A photomultiplier tube is at peak efficiency using blue
wavelengths of light. Therefore, conventional gamma cameras use a single, planar
crystal of thallium activated sodium iodide, or NaI(Tl), which
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
46
BUSINESS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
emits blue wavelengths of light during scintillation. Silicon photodiodes,
however, are most sensitive to the longer wavelengths of the visible spectrum.
For this reason, thallium activated cesium iodide, or CsI(Tl), is a better
scintillator for silicon photodiodes than NaI(Tl). Significantly, CsI(Tl) is
also 36% more efficient than NaI(Tl) at converting the energy of the gamma ray
to optical photons. In addition, CsI(Tl) is denser, and is therefore better at
absorbing gamma rays, than NaI(Tl); a 6 millimeter thick CsI(Tl) detector
absorbs the same number of 140 keV gamma rays as does a 9 millimeter thick
NaI(Tl) scintillator. The DIGIRAD camera uses a six millimeter thick CsI(Tl)
segmented scintillation crystal.
The key components of the segmented CsI(Tl) scintillation crystal, silicon
photodiode and readout electronics are all packaged into a detector module. Our
detector module is designed so that it can be tiled with several other modules
to create a large area detector of essentially any shape. Digirad holds several
patents covering this concept of modules than can be tiled.
The current DIGIRAD 2020TC Imager camera uses 32 modules to create its 8 inch by
8 inch detection area. The array of detection modules is then placed behind a
collimator and into a lead-shielded head case. A collimator is a device
constructed from lead with thousands of small parallel holes that are aligned
perpendicular to the camera's detector surface. The collimator's purpose is to
only allow gamma rays that are perpendicular to the camera surface to be
detected, thereby helping prevent blurred images. Below is a view of the 2020TC
Imager camera detector head assembly and illustrates the arrangement of the
modules, collimator and lead-shielded head case.
[Picture of detection head.]
THE DIGIRAD CAMERA'S TECHNICAL ADVANTAGES
SMALLER SIZE--The main advantage that our photodiode technology provides is a
significant reduction in the size of a gamma camera. As previously described, a
conventional gamma camera uses photomultiplier tubes, 4 inches in height, as its
photo-detectors. The photo-detectors in our camera are silicon photodiodes,
0.012 inches in height. This almost 350-to-1 reduction in the photo-detector
size enables the DIGIRAD camera head to be significantly thinner than a
conventional camera's head. Furthermore, because all gamma camera heads are
lead-shielded, the much thinner DIGIRAD camera head is also much lighter. The
smaller, lighter head of the DIGIRAD camera results in a smaller and lighter
overall camera assembly, which increases the mobility of the camera and its
scope of clinical applications.

IMAGE QUALITY--Digirad's segmented gamma camera offers significant improvement
in intrinsic image quality compared to conventional Anger style cameras because
the DIGIRAD camera's detector is segmented. Segmentation offers fixed intrinsic
spatial resolution which provides for true digital positioning. Today, the word
"digital" is used in virtually every gamma camera sold. While this can describe
various aspects of the electronics and the stage at which the signals are
converted from their inherent analog type to a digital signal, only a segmented
detector has true digital event positioning. We call this process Digital
Position Sensing(SM).
LARGER USEFUL FIELD OF VIEW / LESS "DEAD SPACE"--Another advantage of the
DIGIRAD camera is that our detector head has a larger useful field of view. In
an Anger style camera, gamma rays that strike the perimeter of the scintillation
crystal are viewed by fewer photomultiplier tubes than those striking in the
middle of the crystal. Because the Anger camera requires input from multiple
photomultiplier tubes in order to calculate an average spatial position, this
creates an area of dead space around the edge of the detector head in which the
image is not useful. As a result, the useful field of view on Anger style
cameras is smaller than the area of the detector. However, Digital Position
Sensing eliminates any dead space around the edge of the detector head, thus
making the useful field of view on the DIGIRAD camera almost equal to the entire
area of the detector surface.
ENHANCED OPERABILITY AND RELIABILITY--In addition to a smaller size gamma
camera, our solid-state technology enables a more convenient to operate, power
efficient and more reliable gamma camera. Conventional Anger style gamma cameras
must be powered continuously in order to temperature stabilize their vacuum
photomultiplier tubes, which complicates significantly the design and
construction of portable Anger style cameras. Since Anger cameras draw
electrical power 24 hours per day, they dissipate heat that must be removed by a
heating and ventilation system. The DIGIRAD camera does not need to be powered
continuously and is ready to image minutes after turn on. These qualities enable
a DIGIRAD unit to be mobile and also saves on electrical power; less power is
required to operate the camera and cool the room in which it is operated.
Solid-state detectors are more mechanically rugged than photomultiplier tubes.
The shock of crossing a curb cut or a door threshold will not change the
performance characteristics of our solid-state detector as it can with a
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
photomultiplier tube. Our solid-state detectors also can tolerate more rapid
changes in temperature than can an Anger style camera, another important
capability for a portable camera that is moved in and out of buildings and
vehicles.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
We have developed a broad intellectual property portfolio that includes overall
product, component level and process patents. Currently, we have 15 patents
issued and have eight additional patents pending in the United States. We also
have one patent licensed from a third party for exclusive use in nuclear
imaging. The Japanese and European equivalents for several of these United
States patents are pending, with one Japanese and one Korean patent issued. In
addition to our broad solid-state detector and photodiode technology patents, we
hold specific patents for an alternative solid-state method using Cadmium Zinc
Telluride, or CZT, that we previously pursued for use in gamma cameras. While
each of our patents apply to nuclear medicine, many also apply to the
construction of area detectors for other types of medical imagers and imaging
methods. A summary of our intellectual property portfolio is as follows:
- Fifteen United States patents issued;
- One Japanese patent issued;
- One Korean patent issued;
- Eight utility applications that are pending with the United States Patent
and Trademark Office, with office actions having been received on two; and
- One provisional application is in progress.
We believe it would be difficult to develop an economically viable competitive
solid-state, digital gamma camera without infringing our patents.
COMPETITION
CAMERA SALES--The major manufacturers of nuclear medicine cameras, all of whose
cameras are based on the conventional vacuum tube technology, include Philips
Medical Systems through its subsidiary ADAC Laboratories, General Electric
Medical Systems, Siemens Medical Systems, Marconi Medical Systems (pending
acquisition by Phillips Medical Systems) and Toshiba Medical Systems. All of
these competitors offer a full line of imaging cameras for each diagnostic
imaging technology, including x-ray, magnetic resonance imaging, computed
tomography, ultrasound and nuclear medicine. The possibility exists that one or
more of these companies could decide to develop its own solid-state, digital
gamma camera. However, we believe it would be difficult to develop an
economically viable competitive camera without infringing our patents.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
49
Business
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IMAGING SERVICES--Competition in the mobile nuclear imaging services business is
limited. Competitors tend to be small, undercapitalized businesses employing
conventional vacuum tube cameras that must be transported in large trucks and
cannot be moved in and out of physician offices. We expect to have a distinct
competitive advantage by controlling the enabling technology that provides the
convenience, quality and high level of service physicians will expect. As a
result, we believe that our imaging services business will have a proprietary
technological position. Additionally, we do not expect competition in the mobile
imaging service business from traditional nuclear imaging manufacturers because
their focus is on camera sales to hospitals.
GOVERNMENT REGULATION
Our business is subject to extensive federal and state government regulation.
Some of these laws have not been fully interpreted by the regulatory authorities
or the courts, and their provisions are open to a variety of interpretations. In
addition, these laws and their interpretations are subject to change.
FRAUD AND ABUSE LAWS
The healthcare industry is subject to extensive federal, state and local
regulation relating to licensure, conduct of operations, ownership of
facilities, addition of facilities and services and payment for services.
In particular, the federal Anti-Kickback Law prohibits persons from knowingly
and willfully soliciting, offering, receiving or providing remuneration,
directly or indirectly, in exchange for or to induce either the referral of an
individual, or furnishing or arranging for a good or service, for which payment
may be made under a federal healthcare program such as the Medicare and Medicaid
programs. The definition of "remuneration" has been broadly interpreted to
include gifts, discounts, the furnishing of supplies or equipment, credit
arrangements, payments of cash and waivers of payments. The statute itself has
been broadly interpreted to mean that if any ONE purpose of an arrangement
involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare covered
business, the statute has been violated. The penalties for violating the
Anti-Kickback Law can be severe. These sanctions include criminal penalties and
civil sanctions, including fines, imprisonment and possible exclusion from
Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare Programs.
The Anti-Kickback Law is broad, and it prohibits many arrangements and practices
that are lawful in businesses outside of the healthcare industry. Recognizing
that the Anti-Kickback law is broad and may technically prohibit many innocuous
or beneficial arrangements within the healthcare industry, the United States
Department of Health and Human Services has issued a series of regulations,
known as the "safe harbors," beginning in July of 1991. These regulations set
forth certain safe harbors which, if all applicable requirements are met, will
assure healthcare providers and other parties that they will not be prosecuted
under the Anti-Kickback Law. Additional provisions providing similar protections
have been published intermittently since 1991. Although full compliance with all
applicable safe harbors ensures against prosecution under the Anti-Kickback Law,
the failure of a transaction or arrangement to fit within one or more safe
harbors does not necessarily mean that the transaction or arrangement is illegal
or that prosecution under the Anti-Kickback Law will be pursued. However,
conduct and business arrangements that do not fully satisfy each applicable safe
harbor may result in increased scrutiny by government enforcement authorities
such as the Office of the Inspector General of the United States Department of
Health and Human Services, or OIG. To provide specific guidance on the
application of the Anti-Kickback Law, Congress required the OIG to implement an
advisory opinion process. In an advisory opinion, the OIG may determine that it
will not sanction the advisory opinion's requestor even if the arrangement or
practice in question technically violates the
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
50
BUSINESS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anti-Kickback Law. Although these advisory opinions are binding on the OIG and
the parties requesting the opinions, no third-party may legally rely on them.
Many states have adopted laws similar to the Anti-Kickback Law. Some of these
state prohibitions apply to referral of patients for healthcare services
reimbursed by any source, not only the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Some of
these state prohibitions may be more restrictive than the Anti-Kickback Law in
material respects, and the federal safe harbors may not apply.
Our nuclear imaging services model includes providing services and supplies to
physicians, for which the physicians pay us, for the use in treating their
privately insured patients. These physicians also refer Medicare patients to us,
for which we bill the Medicare program directly. This type of arrangement, if
not properly structured, may violate the Anti-Kickback Law and also raises
issues under another Medicare statute, 42 U.S.C. Section 1320a-7(b)(6). That
statute prohibits providers from charging Medicare substantially in excess of
the provider's usual and customary charges unless the Secretary of Health and
Human Services finds good cause. We have attempted to structure such
arrangements and our other services to comply with the Anti-Kickback Law and
similar state laws, as well as with 42 U.S.C. Section 1320a-7(b)(6). However,
there can be no assurances to this effect. We have attempted to structure our
business arrangements for the provision of single photon emission imaging and
other services comply with the Anti-Kickback Law and similar state laws, but
there can be no assurances to this effect.
In addition, the Ethics in Patient Referral Act of 1989, commonly referred to as
the federal physician self-referral prohibition or Stark Law, prohibits
physician referrals of Medicare patients to an entity for certain designated
healthcare services if the physician or an immediate family member has an
ownership interest in, or compensation arrangement with, the entity and no
statutory or regulatory exception applies. It also prohibits an entity receiving
a prohibited referral from billing and collecting for services rendered pursuant
to such referral. Initially, the Stark Law applied only to clinical laboratory
services and regulations applicable to clinical laboratory services were issued
in 1995. Earlier that same year, the Stark Law's self-referral prohibition
expanded to additional goods and services, including radiology services,
magnetic resonance imaging, computerized axial tomograph scans, and ultrasound
services. In 1998, the Healthcare Financing Administration, now known as the
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, published proposed rules for
the remaining designated healthcare services, that would have included nuclear
imaging within the meaning of "radiology services." However, in January of 2001,
CMS published a final rule which it characterized as the first phase of what
will be a two-phase final rule, which reversed this position and indicated that
nuclear medicine would not be a service covered under the Stark Law. CMS has
also indicated that other supplies provided by us do not constitute designated
healthcare services. However, it is possible that CMS will again reverse its
interpretation in the future to include nuclear imaging as a Stark covered
service, or that such supplies could be interpreted in the future to constitute
designated healthcare services under the Stark Law.
A person who engages in a scheme to circumvent the Stark Law's prohibitions may
be fined up to $100,000 for each such arrangement or scheme. In addition, anyone
who presents or causes to be presented a claim to the Medicare program in
violation of Stark is subject to monetary penalties of up to $15,000 per
service, an assessment of several times the amount claimed, and possible
exclusion from participation in federal healthcare programs. Claims submitted in
violation of Stark may also be subject to liability under the federal False
Claims Act and its whistleblower provisions (as discussed below).
Several states in which we operate have enacted or are considering legislation
that prohibits physician self-referral arrangements and/or requires physicians
to disclose any financial interest they may have
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
51
BUSINESS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
with a healthcare provider to their patients when referring patients to that
provider. Possible sanctions for violating state physician self-referral laws
vary, but may include loss of license and civil and criminal sanctions. State
laws vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and, at least in certain states, are
more restrictive than the federal Stark Law in a number of material respects. In
certain states, these restrictions may add considerable expense to or limit
altogether the types of business models we may successfully utilize. Some states
have indicated they will interpret their own self-referral statutes the same way
that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services interpret the Stark Law, but
it is possible the states will interpret their own laws differently in the
future. We have attempted to structure our operations to comply with these
federal and state physician self-referral prohibition laws, but there can be no
assurances to this effect.
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 created two new
federal crimes: healthcare fraud and false statements relating to healthcare
matters. The healthcare fraud statute prohibits knowingly and willfully
executing a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program, including private
payors. A violation of this statute is a felony and may result in fines,
imprisonment or exclusion from government sponsored programs. The false
statements statute prohibits knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or
covering up a material fact or making any materially false, fictitious or
fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for
healthcare benefits, items or services. A violation of this statute is a felony
and may result in fines or imprisonment. The Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act of 1996 also will require us to follow federal privacy,
security and transaction standards for the transmission, storage and use of
individually identifiable health information, which may add significant costs
and potential burden to our operations. A violation of these privacy standards
may result in criminal and civil penalties.
Both federal and state government agencies are continuing heightened and
coordinated civil and criminal enforcement efforts. As part of announced
enforcement agency work plans, the federal government will continue to
scrutinize, among other things, the billing practices of hospitals and other
providers of healthcare services. The federal government also has increased
funding to fight healthcare fraud, and it is coordinating its enforcement
efforts among various agencies, such as the United States Department of Justice,
the OIG, and state Medicaid fraud control units. We believe that the healthcare
industry will continue to be subject to increasing government scrutiny and
investigations.
FEDERAL FALSE CLAIMS ACT
Another trend affecting the healthcare industry is the increased use of the
federal False Claims Act and, in particular, actions under the False Claims
Act's "whistleblower" provisions. Those provisions allow a private individual to
bring actions on behalf of the government alleging that the defendant has
defrauded the federal government. After the individual has initiated the
lawsuit, the government must decide whether to intervene in the lawsuit and to
become the primary prosecutor. If the government declines to join the lawsuit,
then the individual may choose to pursue the case alone, in which case the
individual's counsel will have primary control over the prosecution, although
the government must be kept apprised of the progress of the lawsuit. Whether or
not the federal government intervenes in the case, it will receive the majority
of any recovery. If the litigation is successful, the individual is entitled to
no less than 15%, but no more than 30%, of whatever amount the government
recovers. The percentage of the individual's recovery varies, depending on
whether the government intervened in the case and other factors.
Recently, the number of suits brought against healthcare providers by private
individuals has increased dramatically, many of which are still under seal from
the public. In addition, various states are considering or have enacted laws
modeled after the federal False Claims Act. We are unable to predict whether we
will be subject to future actions or the impact of any future actions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
52
BUSINESS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When a person is determined to have violated the federal False Claims Act, it
must pay three times the actual damages sustained by the government, plus
mandatory civil penalties of between $5,500 to $11,000 for each separate false
claim. There are many potential bases for liability under the federal False
Claims Act. Liability arises, primarily, when an entity knowingly submits, or
causes another to submit, a false claim for reimbursement to the federal
government. Although simple negligence should not give rise to liability,
submitting a claim with reckless disregard or deliberate ignorance of its truth
or falsity could result in substantial civil liability.
UNLAWFUL PRACTICE OF MEDICINE AND FEE SPLITTING
The marketing and operation of our diagnostic imaging systems are subject to
state laws prohibiting the practice of medicine by non-physicians, or the
employment or excessive control of the medical judgment of physicians by
non-physicians (often referred to as the corporate practice of medicine). We
have attempted to structure our operations so that they do not involve the
practice of medicine, or violate corporate practice of medicine statutes. For
example, all professional medical services relating to our operations, including
the interpretation of scans and related diagnoses, are separately provided by
licensed physicians not employed by us. Some states also have laws that prohibit
any fee-splitting arrangement between a physician and a non-physician. We have
also attempted to structure our operations so that they do not violate these
state laws with respect to fee splitting. However, there can be no such
assurance to that effect with respect to these two sets of laws.
CERTIFICATE OF NEED LAWS
Some states require a certificate of need, or similar regulatory approval, prior
to the acquisition of high-cost capital items or services, including diagnostic
imaging systems or provision of diagnostic imaging services by us or our
clients. Certificate of need regulations may limit or preclude us or our clients
from providing diagnostic imaging services or systems.
REIMBURSEMENT
We derive a substantial percentage of our revenues from government programs,
such as Medicare, or direct billings to physicians. We derive a smaller
percentage of our revenues from direct billings to other third-party payors.
Services for which we submit direct billings for Medicare patients typically are
reimbursed by Medicare on a fee schedule basis.
As a result of federal cost-containment legislation that has been in effect for
many years, Medicare generally pays for inpatient services under a prospective
payment system based upon a fixed amount for each Medicare patient discharge.
Each discharge is classified into one of many diagnosis related groups. A
pre-determined payment amount covers all inpatient operating costs, regardless
of the services actually provided or the length of the patient's stay. Because
Medicare reimburses most hospitals for all services rendered to a Medicare
inpatient on the basis of a pre-determined amount based on the diagnosis related
groups, most hospitals, and all free-standing facilities, cannot be separately
reimbursed by Medicare for a single photon emission imaging scan or other
procedure performed on hospital inpatients. Many state Medicaid programs have
adopted comparable payment policies.
On August 1, 2000, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services implemented a
Medicare outpatient prospective payment system under which services and items
furnished in hospital outpatient departments are reimbursed using a
pre-determined amount for each ambulatory payment classification. Each
ambulatory payment classification is based on the specific procedures performed
and items furnished during a patient visit. Certain items and services are paid
on a fee schedule, and hospitals are reimbursed additional amounts for certain
drugs, biologics and new technologies. We
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
53
BUSINESS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
cannot predict what impact the new Medicare outpatient reimbursement system will
have on the demand for our cameras and services from hospitals.
MEDICARE BILLING AND ENROLLMENT
We can bill Medicare directly for services only to the extent we are enrolled as
an independent diagnostic testing facility. Medicare has delegated the function
of enrollment to contractors known as the Medicare carriers, each of whose
jurisdiction varies, as some carriers govern several states, some just one state
and some just a portion of a state. Although federal regulations and program
memoranda from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services set forth uniform
rules governing independent diagnostic testing facility billing and enrollment,
each carrier is free to interpret these rules to a certain extent. For example,
an independent diagnostic testing facility is required to have one or more
supervising physicians, each of whom meets certain proficiency requirements;
these precise proficiency requirements vary from carrier to carrier. The nature
of a particular carrier's proficiency and other requirements may add
considerable expense to or limit the types of business models we may be able to
utilize successfully in the carrier's jurisdiction.
Part of our business involves the leasing of equipment and personnel to
physicians, who then bill Medicare and other third party payors directly for
nuclear imaging services. Medicare rules permit physicians to bill for certain
diagnostic tests performed using leased equipment and personnel, and to receive
payment based on the applicable Medicare fee schedule, if certain conditions are
satisfied. We have attempted to structure our equipment and personnel leases so
that physicians are able to bill in this manner if they comply with the terms of
the leases, but there can be no assurance to that effect. If any of our leasing
physicians are deemed not to meet these conditions, payment to the affected
physicians could be denied or recouped. If the failure to comply is deemed to be
"knowing" and/or "willful," as defined in federal statutes, the government could
seek to impose fines or penalties. This may require us to restructure our
agreements with these physicians and/or respond to any resultant claims by
physicians or the government.
NON-GOVERNMENTAL THIRD PARTY PAYOR LIMITATIONS
Non-governmental third party payors, such as commercial health maintenance
organizations, or HMOs, preferred provider organizations, or PPOs, and other
insurers, may impose varying requirements and limitations on our ability to
receive payment directly for services we provide. For instance, some payors will
not reimburse us separately for the nuclear imaging tests we perform, and
instead require that reimbursement be paid only on a "global" basis to the
physician who provides the professional interpretation of the nuclear imaging
test. Such payor requirements and limitations restrict the types of business
models we can successfully utilize for patients covered by these payors.
PHARMACEUTICAL LAWS
Our services involve radiopharmaceuticals and other substances regulated as
drugs by state and federal agencies, including the federal Food and Drug
Administration and state pharmacy boards. These agencies administer laws
governing the manufacturing, distribution, use, administration and prescribing
of drugs. These laws include the federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, state food
and drug laws and state pharmacy acts. Some of our activities may be deemed to
require additional permits or licensure under laws which impose substantial
restrictions on who can qualify for such permits or licensure. If any of these
agencies deemed our activities to require additional permits or licensure, we
would be required to either obtain such permits or licensure, if possible, or
modify the types of business models we can utilize in the affected
jurisdiction(s).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
54
BUSINESS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH AND SAFETY LAWS
Our imaging services involve the controlled storage, use and disposal of
material containing radioactive isotopes. While this material has a short
half-life, meaning it quickly breaks down into inert, or non-radioactive
substances, using such materials presents the risk of accidental environmental
contamination and physical injury. We are subject to federal, state and local
regulations governing the use, storage, handling and disposal of materials and
waste products. Although we believe that our safety procedures for handling and
disposing of these hazardous materials comply with the standards prescribed by
law and regulation, we cannot completely eliminate the risk of accidental
contamination or injury from those hazardous materials. In the event of an
accident, we could be held liable for any damages that result, and any liability
could exceed the limits or fall outside the coverage of our insurance. We may
not be able to maintain insurance on acceptable terms, or at all. We could incur
significant costs and the diversion of our management's attention in order to
comply with current or future environmental laws and regulations. We have not
had material expenses related to environmental, health and safety laws or
regulations to date and we have no inspection for which a plan of correction has
not been accepted.
U.S. FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION, OR FDA, AND STATE OR FOREIGN APPROVALS
The manufacture and sale of medical devices intended for commercial distribution
are subject to extensive governmental regulation in the United States. Medical
devices are regulated in the United States primarily by the FDA and also by
certain similar state agencies, such as the California Food and Drug Branch. The
FDA requires that medical devices be manufactured in registered establishments.
California's Food and Drug Branch requires medical device manufacturers to
obtain a Medical Device Manufacturing License.
As part of the regulatory framework, medical devices require pre-market
clearance (demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed device)
or pre-market approval (indicating the device is safe and effective for intended
use) prior to commercial distribution. In addition, certain material changes or
modifications to, and changes in intended use of, medical devices also are
subject to FDA review and clearance or approval. The FDA regulates the research,
testing, manufacture, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,
promotion and distribution of medical devices in the United States and the
export of unapproved medical devices from the United States to other countries.
Noncompliance with applicable requirements can result in failure of the
government to grant pre-market clearance or approval for devices, withdrawal or
suspension of approval, total or partial suspension of production, fines,
injunctions, civil penalties, refunds, recall or seizure of products and
criminal prosecution. The State of California imposes similar state requirements
and may impose similar sanctions on us.
One way a new device can be introduced into the market in the United States is
for the manufacturer or distributor to obtain FDA clearance by a 510(k)
notification that such device is substantially equivalent to a prior approved
device. The FDA requires a rigorous demonstration of substantial equivalence. A
medical device manufacturer must obtain a new 510(k) each time it makes a change
or modification to a legally marketed device that could significantly affect the
safety or effectiveness of the device, or where there is a major change or
modification in the intended use of the device or a new indication for use of
the device. When any change or modification is made to a device or its intended
use, the manufacturer is expected to make the initial determination as to
whether the change or modification is of a kind that would necessitate the
filing of a new 510(k). We have received 510(k) clearance to market our 2020TC
Imager camera and SPECTour chair, and may require similar FDA clearances for
additional products or improvements to our current products.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
55
BUSINESS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Any products manufactured or distributed by us are subject to continuing
regulation by the FDA and the State of California, which includes record keeping
requirements, reporting of adverse experience with the use of the device, Good
Manufacturing Practices requirements and post-market surveillance. It may also
include post-market registry and other actions deemed necessary by the FDA.
Sales of medical device products outside the United States are subject to
foreign regulatory requirements that vary from country to country. The time
required to obtain approvals required by foreign countries may be longer or
shorter than that required for FDA clearance, and requirements for licensing may
differ from FDA requirements.
We will spend considerable time and effort to comply with the FDA, state, and
foreign regulatory requirements described above. Any failure to obtain and
maintain compliance with such requirements could have a material adverse effect
on our business and subject us to sanction.
FACILITIES
As of June 30, 2001, we lease in aggregate approximately 48,000 square feet in
San Diego, California. These facilities serve as our executive headquarters and
as the base for our marketing and product support operations, research and
development and manufacturing activities. These leased facilities also include
approximately 7,000 square feet of clean room space.
In addition, Digirad Imaging Solutions, our wholly-owned subsidiary, leases
office space in eight locations in Indiana, Maryland, New Jersey, North
Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida which together represent approximately
18,000 combined square feet of office space These leased facilities serve as a
base for the marketing and imaging services operations of Digirad Imaging
Solutions.
EMPLOYEES
As of June 30, 2001, we had 257 employees, including 18 in our research and
development department, 43 in our sales and marketing department, 105 in our
manufacturing department, 25 in general and administrative functions and 66 in
mobile imaging services operations. We believe that our relations with our
employees are good.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In July 2001, we were served with notice that a complaint had been filed by
Medical Management Concepts, Inc. in the United States District Court for the
Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The complaint alleges, among other things,
breach of the terms of a Services Agreement and an Employee Lease Agreement,
each dated September 2000 and entered into by and between our wholly owned
subsidiary, Digirad Imaging Systems, Inc., and Medical Management Concepts as
part of our acquisition of some of the customer contracts and select assets
relating to the mobile nuclear imaging services of Nuclear Imaging
Systems, Inc. and Cardiovascular Concepts, P.C. This complaint seeks recovery of
damages for approximately $81,000 plus 12.5% of the adjusted estimated net
revenue generated from gross sums billed to our mobile nuclear imaging customers
from May 1, 2001 to October 31, 2003. We intend to vigorously defend against
this complaint.

MANAGEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The figures above represent options to purchase shares of our common stock
granted under our 1998 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan. We granted options to
purchase an aggregate of 2,574,964 shares of our common stock in 2000. The
options granted to our employees typically vest in a 25% increment on the first
annual anniversary of the date of grant and thereafter vest on a daily basis
over a three-year period. The options granted to the named executive officers
listed in the table above began to vest on a daily basis over a four-year period
beginning on each of their respective dates of grant. Options granted to the
persons listed above expire 10 years from the dates of grant.
The potential realizable value at assumed annual rates of stock price
appreciation for the option term represents hypothetical gains that could be
achieved for the respective options if exercised at the end of the option term.
The 5% and 10% assumed annual rates of compounded stock price appreciation are
required by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not represent
our estimate or projection of our future common stock prices. These amounts
represent assumed rates of appreciation in the value of our common stock from
the fair market value on the date of grant. Actual gains, if any, on stock
option exercises are dependent on the future performance of our common stock and
overall stock market conditions. The actual value realized may be greater or
less than the potential realizable value set forth in the table.
We have never granted any stock appreciation rights.
OPTIONS EXERCISED AND YEAR-END VALUES
The following table sets forth information concerning the number and value of
options exercised by each of the named executive officers as of December 31,
2000 and the number and value of unexercised options held by each of the named
executive officers as of December 31, 2000. Options shown as exercisable in the
table below are immediately exercisable; however, we have the right to purchase
the shares of common stock underlying some of these options upon termination of
the holder's employment with us. There was no public trading price for the
common stock as of December 31, 2000. Accordingly, the value of unexercised
in-the-money options at December 31, 2000 represents an amount equal to the
difference between the assumed fair market value of $0.50 of the common stock as
determined by our board of directors and the applicable exercise price per
share, multiplied by the number of unexercised in-the-money options. An option
is in-the-money if the fair market value of the underlying shares exceeds the
exercise price of the options.

BENEFIT PLANS
2001 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
INTRODUCTION--Our 2001 Stock Incentive Plan is intended to serve as the
successor equity incentive program to our 1995 Stock Option Plan, 1997 Stock
Option/Stock Issuance Plan and 1998 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan, which we
collectively refer to as our predecessor plans. Our 2001 incentive plan is to be
adopted by our board of directors, and we intend to seek the approval of our
stockholders, prior to the closing of this offering. Our 2001 incentive plan
will become effective on the date the underwriting agreement for this offering
is signed. At that time, all outstanding options under the predecessor plans
will be transferred to our 2001 incentive plan, and no further option grants
will be made under those predecessor plans. The transferred options will
continue to be governed by their existing terms, unless our compensation
committee elects to extend one or more features of our 2001 incentive plan to
those options. Except as otherwise noted below, the transferred options will
have substantially the same terms as in effect for grants made under the
discretionary option grant program of our 2001 incentive plan.
SHARE RESERVE--Twelve million shares of common stock have been authorized for
issuance under our 2001 incentive plan. Such share reserve consists of the
number of shares we estimate will be carried over from our predecessor plans,
including the shares subject to outstanding options thereunder, plus an
additional increase of approximately 3,500,000 shares. The number of shares of
common stock reserved for issuance under our 2001 incentive plan will
automatically increase on the first trading day in January each calendar year,
beginning in calendar year 2002, by an amount equal to 2% of the total number of
shares of common stock outstanding on the last trading day in December of the
preceding calendar year.
EQUITY INCENTIVE PROGRAMS--Our 2001 incentive plan is divided into five separate
components:
- the discretionary option grant program, under which eligible individuals in
our employ or service may be granted options to purchase shares of common
stock at an exercise price not less than 100% of the fair market value of
those shares on the grant date;
- the stock issuance program, under which such individuals may be issued
shares of common stock directly, through the purchase of such shares at a
price not less than 100% of their fair market value at the time of issuance
or as a bonus tied to the attainment of performance milestones or the
completion of a specified period of service;
- the salary investment option grant program, under which our executive
officers and other highly compensated employees may be given the opportunity
to apply a portion of their base salary to the acquisition of special
below-market stock option grants;
- the automatic option grant program, under which option grants will
automatically be made at periodic intervals to our non-employee board
members to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price equal to
100% of the fair market value of those shares on the grant date; and
- the director fee option grant program, under which our non-employee board
members may be given the opportunity to apply a portion of the annual
retainer fee otherwise payable to them in cash each year to the acquisition
of special below-market option grants.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
63
MANAGEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ELIGIBILITY--The individuals eligible to participate in our 2001 incentive plan
include our officers and other employees, our non-employee board members and any
consultants we hire.
ADMINISTRATION--The discretionary option grant program and the stock issuance
program will be administered by the compensation committee. This committee will
determine which eligible individuals are to receive option grants or stock
issuances under those programs, the time or times when such option grants or
stock issuances are to be made, the number of shares subject to each such grant
or issuance, the status of any granted option as either an incentive stock
option or a non-statutory stock option under the federal tax laws, the vesting
schedule to be in effect for the option grant or stock issuance and the maximum
term for which any granted option is to remain outstanding. The compensation
committee will also have the exclusive authority to select the executive
officers and other highly compensated employees who may participate in the
salary investment option grant program in the event that program is activated
for one or more calendar years.
PLAN FEATURES--Our 2001 incentive plan will include the following features:
- the exercise price for the shares of common stock subject to option grants
made under our 2001 incentive plan may be paid in cash or in shares of
common stock valued at fair market value on the exercise date. The option
may also be exercised through a same-day sale program without any cash
outlay by the optionee. In addition, the plan administrator may provide
financial assistance to one or more optionees in the exercise of their
outstanding options or the purchase of their unvested shares by allowing
such individuals to deliver a full-recourse, interest-bearing promissory
note in payment of the exercise price and any associated withholding taxes
incurred in connection with such exercise or purchase;
- the compensation committee will have the authority to cancel outstanding
options under the discretionary option grant program, including options
transferred from the predecessor plans, in return for the grant of new
options for the same or a different number of option shares with an exercise
price per share based upon the fair market value of our common stock on the
new grant date; and
- stock appreciation rights are authorized for issuance under the
discretionary option grant program. Such rights will provide the holders
with the election to surrender their outstanding options for an appreciation
distribution from us equal to the fair market value of the vested shares of
common stock subject to the surrendered option, less the aggregate exercise
price payable for those shares. Such appreciation distribution may be made
in cash or in shares of common stock. None of the outstanding options under
our predecessor plans contain any stock appreciation rights.
The 2001 incentive plan will include the following change in control provisions
which may result in the accelerated vesting of outstanding option grants and
stock issuances:
- in the event that we are acquired by merger or asset sale, each outstanding
option under the discretionary option grant program which is not to be
assumed by the successor corporation will automatically accelerate in full,
and all unvested shares under the discretionary option grant and stock
issuance programs will immediately vest, except to the extent our repurchase
rights with respect to those shares are to be assigned to the successor
corporation;
- the compensation committee will have complete discretion to structure one or
more options under the discretionary option grant program so those options
will vest as to all the option shares in the event those options are assumed
in the acquisition but the optionee's service with us or the acquiring
entity is subsequently terminated. The vesting of outstanding shares under
the stock issuance program may be accelerated upon similar terms and
conditions;
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
64
MANAGEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- the compensation committee will also have the authority to grant options
which will immediately vest in the event we are acquired, whether or not
those options are assumed by the successor corporation;
- the compensation committee may grant options and structure repurchase rights
so that the shares subject to those options or repurchase rights will
immediately vest in connection with a successful tender offer for more than
50% of our outstanding voting stock or a change in the majority of our board
through one or more contested elections for board membership. Such
accelerated vesting may occur either at the time of such transaction or upon
the subsequent termination of the individual's service; and
- the options currently outstanding under our predecessor plans will
immediately vest in the event we are acquired by merger or sale of
substantially all our assets, unless those options are assumed by the
acquiring entity or our repurchase rights with respect to any unvested
shares subject to those options are assigned to such entity. However, a
number of those options may also contain a special acceleration provision
pursuant to which the shares subject to those options will immediately vest
upon an involuntary termination of the optionee's employment within
18 months following an acquisition in which the repurchase rights with
respect to those shares are assigned to the acquiring entity.
SALARY INVESTMENT OPTION GRANT PROGRAM--In the event the compensation committee
elects to activate the salary investment option grant program for one or more
calendar years, each of our executive officers and other highly compensated
employees selected for participation may elect, prior to the start of the
calendar year, to reduce his or her base salary for that calendar year by a
specified dollar amount not less than $10,000 nor more than $50,000. Each
selected individual who files such a timely election will automatically be
granted, on the first trading day in January of the calendar year for which his
or her salary reduction is to be in effect, an option to purchase that number of
shares of common stock determined by dividing the salary reduction amount by
two-thirds of the fair market value per share of our common stock on the grant
date. The option will be exercisable at a price per share equal to one-third of
the fair market value of the option shares on the grant date. As a result, the
option will be structured so that the fair market value of the option shares on
the grant date less the exercise price payable for those shares will be equal to
the amount by which the optionee's salary is reduced under the program. The
option will become exercisable in a series of 12 equal monthly installments over
the calendar year for which the salary reduction is to be in effect.
AUTOMATIC OPTION GRANT PROGRAM--Under the automatic option grant program, each
individual who first becomes a non-employee board member at any time after the
completion of this offering will automatically receive on the date such
individual joins the board an option grant for a number of shares of common
stock to be determined prior to the closing of this offering, provided such
individual has not been in our prior employ. In addition, on the date of each
annual stockholders meeting held after the completion of this offering, each
non-employee board member who is to continue to serve as a non-employee board
member, including each of our current non-employee board members, will
automatically be granted an option to purchase a number of shares of common
stock to be determined prior to the closing of this offering, provided such
individual has served on our board for at least six months.
Each automatic grant will have an exercise price per share equal to the fair
market value per share of our common stock on the grant date and will have a
term of 10 years, subject to earlier termination following the optionee's
cessation of board service. The option will be immediately exercisable for all
of the option shares; however, we may repurchase, at the exercise price paid per
share, any shares purchased under the option which are not vested at the time of
the optionee's cessation of board
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
65
MANAGEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
service. The shares subject to each initial automatic option grant will vest in
a series of 3 successive annual installments upon the optionee's completion of
each year of board service over the 3-year period measured from the grant date.
The shares subject to each annual automatic option grant will vest upon the
optionee's completion of one year of board service measured from the grant date.
However, the shares will immediately vest in full upon certain changes in
control or ownership or upon the optionee's death or disability while a board
member.
DIRECTOR FEE OPTION GRANT PROGRAM--Should the director fee option grant program
be activated in the future, each non-employee board member will have the
opportunity to apply all or a portion of any cash retainer fee for the year to
the acquisition of a below-market option grant. The option grant will
automatically be made on the first trading day in January in the year for which
the retainer fee would otherwise be payable in cash. The option will have an
exercise price per share equal to one-third of the fair market value of the
option shares on the grant date, and the number of shares subject to the option
will be determined by dividing the amount of the retainer fee applied to the
program by two-thirds of the fair market value per share of our common stock on
the grant date. As a result, the option will be structured so that the fair
market value of the option shares on the grant date less the exercise price
payable for those shares will be equal to the portion of the retainer fee
applied to that option. The option will become exercisable in a series of 12
equal monthly installments over the calendar year for which the election is to
be in effect. However, the option will become immediately exercisable for all
the option shares upon the optionee's death or disability while serving as a
board member.
Our 2001 incentive plan will also have the following features:
- outstanding options under the salary investment and director fee option
grant programs will immediately vest if we are acquired by a merger or asset
sale or if there is a successful tender offer for more than 50% of our
outstanding voting stock or a change in the majority of our board through
one or more contested elections;
- limited stock appreciation rights will automatically be included as part of
each grant made under the salary investment option grant program and the
automatic and director fee option grant programs, and these rights may also
be granted to one or more officers as part of their option grants under the
discretionary option grant program. Options with this feature may be
surrendered to us upon the successful completion of a hostile tender offer
for more than 50% of our outstanding voting stock. In return for the
surrendered option, the optionee will be entitled to a cash distribution
from us in an amount per surrendered option share based upon the highest
price per share of our common stock paid in that tender offer; and
- the board may amend or modify the 2001 incentive plan at any time, subject
to any required stockholder approval. The 2001 incentive plan will terminate
no later than ten years after the completion of this offering.
EMPLOYMENT ARRANGEMENTS
None of our employees are employed for a specified term, and each employee's
employment with us is subject to termination at any time by either party for any
reason, with or without cause.
All of our current employees have entered into agreements with us which contain
restrictions and covenants relating to the protection of our confidential
information.

MANAGEMENT

LIMITATIONS ON DIRECTORS' LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION
Our certificate of incorporation limits the liability of directors to the
maximum extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that directors
of a corporation will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breach
of their fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for:
- any breach of their duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders;
- acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct
or a knowing violation of law;
- unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions;
and
- any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.
The limitation of liability does not apply to liabilities arising under the
federal securities laws and does not affect the availability of equitable
remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission. Our certificate of
incorporation and bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and
officers and may indemnify our employees and other agents to the fullest extent
permitted by law. We believe that indemnification under our bylaws covers at
least negligence on the part of indemnified parties. Our bylaws also permit us
to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee or other agent
for any liability arising out of his or her actions in their capacity as an
officer, director, employee or other agent, regardless of whether the bylaws
would permit indemnification.
We have entered into agreements to indemnify our directors and executive
officers, in addition to the indemnification provided for in our bylaws. These
agreements, among other things, provide for indemnification for judgments,
fines, settlement amounts and expenses, including attorneys' fees incurred by
the director, or executive officer in any action or proceeding, including any
action by or in our right, arising out of the person's services as a director or
executive officer, any of our subsidiaries or any other company or enterprise to
which the person provides services at our request. We believe that these
provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons
as directors and executive officers.
At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of our
directors, officers or employees in which indemnification is sought, nor are we
aware of any threatened litigation that may result in claims for
indemnification.

Description of capital stock
Upon the closing of this offering, our authorized capital stock will consist of
250,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, and 10,000,000
shares of undesignated preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share.
The following description of our capital stock does not purport to be complete
and is subject to and qualified by our certificate of incorporation and bylaws,
which are included as exhibits to the registration statement of which this
prospectus forms a part, and by the provisions of applicable Delaware law.
COMMON STOCK
As of August 23, 2001, there were 4,526,474 shares of common stock outstanding.
There will be shares of common stock outstanding upon the closing
of this offering, which gives effect to the shares of common stock
offered by us in this offering and the conversion of shares of preferred stock
as discussed below. The outstanding shares of common stock are, and the shares
offered by us in this offering will be, when issued in consideration for payment
thereof, fully paid and nonassessable.
The following summarizes the rights of holders of our common stock:
- the holders of our common stock are entitled to dividends and other
distributions as may be declared from time to time by the board of directors
out of funds legally available for that purpose, if any;
- the holders of common stock have no preemptive or other subscription rights
to purchase shares of our stock, nor are they entitled to the benefits of
any redemption or sinking fund provisions;
- each holder of shares of common stock is entitled to one vote per share on
all matters to be voted on by stockholders generally, including the election
of directors;
- there are no cumulative voting rights; and
- upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of shares of
common stock will be entitled to share ratably in the distribution of all of
our assets remaining available for distribution after satisfaction of all
our liabilities and the payment of the liquidation preference of any
outstanding preferred stock.
PREFERRED STOCK
As of August 23, 2001, there were 29,748,030 shares of redeemable convertible
preferred stock outstanding. All outstanding shares of redeemable convertible
preferred stock will be converted into 29,748,030 shares of common stock in
connection with this offering and such shares of redeemable convertible
preferred stock will no longer be authorized, issued or outstanding. In
addition, if the final price per share of shares in this offering is less then
$ per share, a small number of additional shares of common stock will be
issued upon conversion of the Series F preferred stock.
Upon the closing of this offering, our board of directors will be authorized,
without further stockholder approval, to issue from time to time one or more
series of preferred stock and to fix or alter the designations, powers,
preferences, rights and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the
shares of such series, including:
- the number of shares constituting the series and the distinctive designation
of the series;
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
73
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- the dividend rate on the share of the series, whether dividends will be
cumulative, and if so, from which date or dates, and the relative rights of
priority, if any, of payment of dividends on shares of the series;
- whether the series will have conversion privileges and, if so, the terms and
conditions of conversion;
- whether the series will have a sinking fund for the redemption or purchase
of shares of that series, and, if so, the terms and amount of the sinking
fund;
- whether or not the shares of the series will be redeemable or exchangeable,
and, if so, the dates, terms and conditions of redemption or exchange, as
the case may be;
- whether the series will have voting rights in addition to the voting rights
provided by law, and if so, the terms of the voting rights; and
- the rights of the shares of the series in the event of our voluntary or
involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up and the relative rights
or priority, if any, of payment of shares of the series.
The board of directors may authorize the issuance of preferred stock with terms
and conditions which could discourage a takeover or other transaction that
holders of some or a majority of common stock might believe to be in their best
interests or in which holders of common stock might receive a premium for their
shares over the then market price.
We have no present plans to issue any shares of preferred stock.
WARRANTS
As of August 23, 2001, we had outstanding warrants to purchase 603,578 shares of
common stock, at a weighted average exercise price of $2.59 per share. Of the
outstanding warrants, warrants to purchase 65,875 shares will terminate upon the
closing of this offering and warrants to purchase 60,000 shares will expire if a
consulting agreement is terminated before July 31, 2002.
In addition, we have entered into a consulting agreement under which we will
issue additional warrants to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock at fair
market value for every three digital cameras sold by the consultant, up to a
maximum of 40,000 shares, and thereafter issue warrants to purchase 1,500 shares
of common stock at fair market value for each of our digital cameras sold by the
consultant.

stock option plans.
REGISTRATION RIGHTS
The holders of the shares of common stock which will be issued upon conversion
of the preferred stock in connection with this offering, which holders are
referred to below as our preferred investors, have the right to cause us to
register their shares under the Securities Act of 1933 as follows:
- DEMAND REGISTRATION RIGHTS: Preferred investors holding at least 30% of the
shares of common stock issued upon conversion of the preferred stock have
the right to demand that we register their
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
74
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
shares, subject to limitations, commencing one year after the effective date
of the registration statement for this offering. We are not required to
effect more than two registrations pursuant to such demand registration
rights;
- PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION RIGHTS: In the event we propose to register any
shares of common stock either for our account or for the account of other
security holders, our preferred investors are entitled to receive notice of
such registration and to have their shares included in any such
registration, subject to limitations; and
- S-3 REGISTRATION RIGHTS: At any time after we become eligible to file a
registration statement on Form S-3, our preferred investors may require us
to file up to two registration statements on Form S-3 during any twelve
month period with respect to their shares of common stock, subject to
limitations.
These registration rights are subject to conditions and limitations, among them
the right of the underwriters of an offering to limit the number of shares of
common stock held by our preferred investors to be included in a registration.
We are generally required to bear all of the expenses of all such registrations,
including the reasonable fees of a single counsel acting on behalf of all
selling holders, but excluding underwriting discounts and selling commissions.
Registration of any of the shares of common stock held by our preferred
investors would result in such shares becoming freely tradable without
restriction under the Securities Act of 1933 immediately upon effectiveness of
such registration.
POSSIBLE ANTI-TAKEOVER MATTERS
GENERAL--Provisions of Delaware law, as well as our certificate of incorporation
and bylaws, could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party
to acquire, or of discouraging a third party from acquiring, control of us. Such
provisions could limit the price that some investors might be willing to pay in
the future for our common stock. These provisions of Delaware law and our
certificate of incorporation and bylaws may also have the effect of discouraging
or preventing certain types of transactions involving an actual or threatened
change of control of us, including unsolicited takeover attempts, even though
such a transaction may offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their
stock at a price above the prevailing market price.
DELAWARE TAKEOVER STATUTE--We are subject to the "business combination"
provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Subject to
certain exceptions, Section 203 prohibits a publicly-held Delaware corporation
from engaging in a "business combination" with an "interested stockholder" for a
period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person
became an interested stockholder, unless:
- the transaction is approved by the board of directors prior to the date the
interested stockholder obtained interested stockholder status;
- upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholders
becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at
least 85% of our voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction
commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the number of shares
outstanding those shares owned by (a) persons who are directors and also
officers and (b) employee stock plans in which employee participants do not
have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to
the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or
- at or subsequent to the date the person became an interested stockholder,
the business combination is approved by the board of directors and
authorized at an annual or special meeting of
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
75
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the
outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.
A "business combination" includes mergers, asset sales and other transactions
resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. Subject to
certain exceptions, an "interested stockholder" is a person who, together with
affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years did own, 15% or more of
the corporation's voting stock. This statute could prohibit or delay the
accomplishment of mergers or other takeover or change in control attempts with
respect to us and, accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire us.
CHARTER AND BYLAW PROVISIONS--In addition, certain provisions of our certificate
of incorporation and bylaws summarized in the following paragraphs may be deemed
to have an anti-takeover effect and may delay, defer or prevent a tender offer
or takeover attempt that a stockholder might consider in its best interest,
including those attempts that might result in a premium over the then market
price for the shares held by stockholders.
- CLASSIFIED BOARD OF DIRECTORS; REMOVAL; FILLING VACANCIES AND AMENDMENT: Our
certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that the board will be
divided into three classes of directors serving staggered, three-year terms.
The classification of the board has the effect of requiring at least two
annual stockholder meetings, instead of one, to replace a majority of
members of the board. Subject to the rights of the holders of any
outstanding series of preferred stock, the certificate of incorporation
authorizes only the board to fill vacancies, including newly created
directorships. Accordingly, this provision could prevent a stockholder from
obtaining majority representation on the board by enlarging the board of
directors and filling the new directorships with its own nominees. The
certificate of incorporation also provides that directors may be removed by
stockholders only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of holders of
two-thirds of the outstanding shares of voting stock.
- STOCKHOLDER ACTION; SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS: The certificate of
incorporation provides that stockholders may not take action by written
consent, but may only take action at duly called annual or special meetings
of stockholders. The certificate of incorporation further provides that
special meetings of our stockholders may be called by the chairman of the
board of directors, the chief executive officer or a majority of the board
of directors. This limitation on the right of stockholders to call a special
meeting could make it more difficult for stockholders to initiate actions
that are opposed by the board of directors. These actions could include the
removal of an incumbent director or the election of a stockholder nominee as
a director. They could also include the implementation of a rule requiring
stockholders' ratification of specific defensive strategies that have been
adopted by the board of directors with respect to unsolicited takeover bids.
In addition, the limited ability of the stockholders to call a special
meeting of stockholders may make it more difficult to change the existing
board and management.
- ADVANCE NOTICE REQUIREMENTS FOR STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS AND DIRECTOR
NOMINATION: The bylaws provide that stockholders seeking to bring business
before an annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for
election as directors at an annual meeting of stockholders, must provide
timely notice thereof in writing. To be timely, a stockholder's notice must
be delivered to or mailed and received at our principal executive offices
not less than 120 days prior to the date of our annual meeting. The bylaws
also specify certain requirements as to the form and content of a
stockholder's notice. These provisions may preclude stockholders from
bringing matters before an annual meeting of stockholders or from making
nominations for directors at an annual meeting of stockholders.
- AUTHORIZED BUT UNISSUED SHARES: The authorized but unissued shares of common
stock and preferred stock are available for future issuance without
stockholder approval. These additional
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
76
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
shares may be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future
public offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions,
employee benefit plans and "poison pill" rights plans. The existence of
authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock could
render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by
means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

Shares eligible for future sale
Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our common stock. We
cannot predict what effect, if any, market sales of shares or the availability
of shares for sale will have on the market price of our common stock prevailing
from time to time. The market price of our common stock could decline as a
result of sales of a large number of shares of our common stock in the market
after this offering, or the perception that such sales could occur. Such sales
also might make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future
at a time and price that we deem appropriate. Based upon the number of shares
outstanding at August 23, 2001, upon the closing of this offering, we will have
shares of common stock outstanding, assuming no exercise of the
underwriters' over-allotment option and no exercise of options or warrants to
purchase shares of our common stock. Of these shares, the shares
being sold in this offering will be freely tradable without restriction or
further registration under the Securities Act of 1933, unless these shares are

The sale of such shares may still remain subject, however, to contractual

LOCK-UP AGREEMENTS
Each of our stockholders and holders of options and warrants to purchase shares
of our common stock who individually own more than 1% of our common stock
(assuming the exercise of such options or warrants), as well as each of our
directors and officers, have entered into lock-up agreements pursuant to which
they have agreed that they will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or
otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of our common stock or
any securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, our common
stock without the prior written consent of UBS Warburg for a period of 180 days
from the date of this offering. Collectively, over 90% of our issued or issuable
shares prior to this offering are subject to this lock-up agreement. Upon
expiration of the lock-up agreements, shares will become eligible for sale
in the public market, subject to volume and holding requirements of Rule 144 or
701 of the Securities Act of 1933.
STOCK PLANS
Following 90 days after the date of this prospectus, shares issued upon the
exercise of options that we granted prior to the date of this offering will also
be eligible for sale in the public market under Rule 701 of the Securities Act
of 1933, as described above. As of August 23, 2001, options to purchase a total
of 5,952,426 shares of common stock were outstanding. Each option grant is
subject to a market stand-off provision, which allows us to restrict the sale of
shares obtained through the exercise of options for up to 180 days from the date
of this offering. Of these shares, shares may be
eligible for sale in the public market beginning 180 days from the date of this
prospectus.
We also intend to file a registration statement to register for resale an
additional shares of common stock for issuance under our stock
option plans. This registration statement will become effective immediately upon
filing. Shares of common stock registered under this registration statement will
be available for sale in the public market from time to time subject to vesting
and the expiration of the market stand-off provisions referred to above.

Material United States federal tax consequences to non-United States holders of
common stock
The following is a general discussion of the material United States federal
income and estate tax considerations with respect to the ownership and
disposition of our common stock applicable to non-U.S. holders. In general, a
"Non-U.S. Holder" is any holder of our common stock other than:
- a citizen or individual resident of the United States,
- a corporation or other entity created or organized in the United States or
under the laws of the United States or of any state or political subdivision
of the United States,
- an estate, the income of which is included in gross income for United States
federal income tax purposes regardless of its source, or
- a trust whose administration is subject to the primary supervision of a
United States court and which has one or more United States persons who have
the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust.
This discussion is based on current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code,
Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Internal Revenue Code, judicial
opinions, published positions of the Internal Revenue Service, and all other
applicable authorities, all of which are subject to change, possibly with
retroactive effect. This discussion does not address all aspects of United
States federal income and estate taxation or any aspects of state, local, or
non-U.S. taxation, nor does it consider any specific facts or circumstances that
may apply to particular Non-U.S. Holders that may be subject to special
treatment under the United States federal income tax laws, such as insurance
companies, tax-exempt organizations, financial institutions, brokers, dealers in
securities, and United States expatriates.
PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE
UNITED STATES FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND NON-U.S. INCOME AND OTHER TAX
CONSIDERATIONS OF ACQUIRING, HOLDING AND DISPOSING OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK.
DIVIDENDS--In general, dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to
United States withholding tax at a 30% rate of the gross amount, or a lower rate
prescribed by an applicable income tax treaty, unless the dividends are
effectively connected with a trade or business carried on by the Non-U.S. Holder
within the United States. Dividends that are effectively connected with such a
United States trade or business generally will not be subject to United States
withholding tax if the Non-U.S. Holder files the required forms, including IRS
Form W-8ECI, or any successor form, with the payor of the dividend, and
generally will be subject to United States federal income tax on a net income
basis, in the same manner as if the Non-U.S. Holder were a resident of the
United States. A corporate Non-U.S. Holder that receives effectively connected
dividends may be subject to an additional branch profits tax at a rate of 30%,
or at a lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty, on
the repatriation from the United States of its "effectively connected earnings
and profits," subject to adjustments.
Under Treasury Regulations generally effective for payments made after
December 31, 2000, referred to in this prospectus as the "Final Regulations," a
Non-U.S. Holder will be required to satisfy certification requirements, directly
or through an intermediary, in order to claim a reduced rate of withholding
under an applicable income tax treaty. A Non-U.S. Holder generally certifies
entitlement to benefits under a treaty by providing an IRS Form W-8BEN. In
addition, under the Final Regulations, in the case of dividends paid to a
foreign partnership, the certification requirement would
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
80
MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL TAX CONSEQUENCES TO NON-UNITED STATES HOLDERS OF
COMMON STOCK
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
generally be applied to the partners of the partnership, unless the partnership
agrees to become a "withholding foreign partnership," and the partnership would
be required to provide various information, including a United States taxpayer
identification number. The Final Regulations also provide "look-through" rules
for tiered partnerships.
A Non-U.S. Holder of our common stock that is eligible for a reduced rate of
United States federal income tax withholding under a tax treaty may obtain a
refund of any excess amounts withheld by filing an appropriate claim for refund
with the IRS.
GAIN ON SALE OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF COMMON STOCK--In general, a Non-U.S. Holder
will not be subject to United States federal income tax on any gain realized
upon the sale or other taxable disposition of the holders shares of common stock
unless:
- the gain is effectively connected with a trade or business carried on by the
Non-U.S. Holder within the United States, in which case the branch profits
tax discussed above may also apply if the Non-U.S. Holder is a corporation,
- the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who holds shares of common stock as a
capital asset and is present in the United States for 183 days or more in
the taxable year of disposition and various other conditions are met,
- the Non-U.S. Holder is subject to tax under the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code regarding the taxation of United States expatriates, or
- we are or have been a "U.S. real property holding corporation" within the
meaning of Section 897(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code at any time within
the shorter of the five-year period preceding such disposition or such
holders holding period. We do not believe that we are, and do not anticipate
becoming, a United States real property holding corporation.
BACKUP WITHHOLDING AND INFORMATION REPORTING--Generally, we must report annually
to the IRS the amount of dividends paid, the name and address of the recipient,
and the amount, if any, of tax withheld. A similar report is sent to the
recipient. These information reporting requirements apply even if withholding
was not required because the dividends were effectively connected dividends or
withholding was reduced by an applicable income tax treaty. Under tax treaties
or other agreements, the IRS may make its reports available to tax authorities
in the recipients country of residence.
Payments made to a Non-U.S. Holder that is not an exempt recipient generally
will be subject to backup withholding at a rate of 31%, rather than withholding
at a 30% rate or lower treaty rate discussed above, unless a Non-U.S. Holder
certifies as to its foreign status, which certification may be made on IRS
Form W-8 BEN.
Proceeds from the disposition of common stock by a Non-U.S. Holder effected by
or through a United States office of a broker will be subject to information
reporting and to backup withholding at a rate of 31% of the gross proceeds
unless the Non-U.S. Holder certifies to the payor under penalties of perjury as
to, among other things, its address and status as a Non-U.S. Holder or otherwise
establishes an exemption. Generally, United States information reporting and
backup withholding will not apply to a payment of disposition proceeds if the
transaction is effected outside the United States by or through a non-United
States office of a broker. However, if the broker is, for United States federal
income tax purposes, a United States person, a controlled foreign corporation, a
foreign person who derives 50% or more of its gross income for specified periods
from the conduct of a United States trade or business, specified United States
branches of foreign banks or insurance companies, or, a
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
81
MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL TAX CONSEQUENCES TO NON-UNITED STATES HOLDERS OF
COMMON STOCK
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
foreign partnership with various connections to the United States, information
reporting but not backup withholding will apply unless:
- the broker has documentary evidence in its files that the holder is a
Non-U.S. Holder and other conditions are met; or
- the holder otherwise establishes an exemption.
Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the United States federal
income tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by
the amount of tax withheld. If backup withholding results in an overpayment of
United States federal income taxes, a refund may be obtained, provided the
required documents are filed with the IRS.
ESTATE TAX--Our common stock owned or treated as owned by an individual who is
not a citizen or resident, as defined for United States federal estate tax
purposes, of the United States at the time of death will be included in the
individuals gross estate for United States federal estate tax purposes, unless
an applicable estate tax treaty provides otherwise.

Underwriting
We and the underwriters for the offering named below have entered into an
underwriting agreement concerning the shares being offered. Subject to
conditions, each underwriter has severally agreed to purchase the number of
shares indicated in the following table. UBS Warburg LLC and First Union
Securities, Inc. are the representatives of the underwriters.

UBS Warburg LLC.............................................

If the underwriters sell more shares than the total number set forth in the
table above, the underwriters have a 30-day option to buy from us up to an
additional shares at the initial public offering price less the
underwriting discounts and commissions to cover these sales. If any shares are
purchased under this option, the underwriters will severally purchase shares in
approximately the same proportion as set forth in the table above. The following
table shows the per share and total underwriting discounts and commissions we
will pay to the underwriters. These amounts are shown assuming both no exercise
and full exercise of the underwriters' option to purchase up to an additional
shares.
NO EXERCISE FULL EXERCISE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Per share................................................ $ $
Total.................................................... $ $
We estimate that the total expenses of the offering payable by us, excluding
underwriting discounts and commissions, will be approximately $ .
Shares sold by the underwriters to the public will initially be offered at the
initial public offering price set forth on the cover of this prospectus. Any
shares sold by the underwriters to securities dealers may be sold at a discount
of up to $ per share from the initial public offering price. Any of
these securities dealers may resell any shares purchased from the underwriters
to other brokers or dealers at a discount of up to $ per share from
the initial public offering price. If all the shares are not sold at the initial
public offering price, the representatives may change the offering price and the
selling terms. The underwriters have informed us that they do not expect
discretionary sales to exceed % of the shares of common stock to be offered.
Our company and each of our directors, officers and our stockholders and
optionholders owning 1% or more of our common stock (assuming the exercise of
such options) have agreed with the underwriters not to offer, sell, contract to
sell, hedge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file with the
SEC a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 relating to, any
shares of our common stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for
shares of common stock during the period from the date of this prospectus
continuing through the date 180 days after the date of this prospectus, without
the prior written consent of UBS Warburg LLC.
The underwriters have reserved for sale, at the initial public offering price,
shares of our common stock being offered for sale to our customers
and business partners. At the discretion of
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
83
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
our management, other parties, including our employees, may participate in the
reserved shares program. The number of shares available for sale to the general
public in the offering will be reduced to the extent these persons purchase
reserved shares. Any reserved shares not so purchased will be offered by the
underwriters to the general public on the same terms as the other shares.
Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our common stock.
The initial public offering price was negotiated by us and the representatives.
The principal factors to be considered in determining the initial public
offering price included:
- the information set forth in this prospectus and otherwise available to the
representatives;
- the history and the prospects for the industry in which we compete;
- the ability of our management;
- our prospects for future earnings, the present state of our development and
our current financial position;
- the general condition of the securities markets at the time of this
offering; and
- recent market prices of, and demand for, publicly traded common stock of
comparable companies.
In connection with the offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell shares
of our common stock in the open market. These transactions may include short
sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover positions created by
short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater
number of shares than they are required to purchase in the offering. "Covered"
short sales are sales made in an amount not greater than the underwriters'
option to purchase additional shares from us in the offering. The underwriters
may close out any covered short position by either exercising their option to
purchase additional shares or purchasing shares in the open market. In
determining the source of shares to close out the covered short position, the
underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares available
for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may
purchase shares through the overallotment option. "Naked" short sales are any
sales in excess of the overallotment option. The underwriters must close out any
naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short
position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that
there may be downward pressure on the price of the common stock in the open
market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the
offering.
Stabilizing transactions consist of bids or purchases made for the purpose of
preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of our common stock while
the offering is in progress. The underwriters also may impose a penalty bid.
This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the underwriters a portion
of the underwriting discount received by it because the representatives have
repurchased shares sold by or for the account of that underwriter in stabilizing
or short covering transactions. These activities by the underwriters may
stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of our common stock. As
a result, the price of our common stock may be higher than the price that
otherwise might exist in the open market. If these activities are commenced,
they may be discontinued by the underwriters at any time. These transactions may
be effected on the Nasdaq National Market, in the over-the-counter market or
otherwise.
We have agreed to indemnify the several underwriters against liabilities,
including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, and to contribute to
payments that the underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Digirad Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Digirad
Corporation as of December 31, 1999 and 2000, and the related statements of
operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 2000. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Digirad
Corporation at December 31, 1999 and 2000, and the consolidated results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(INFORMATION AS OF JUNE 30, 2001 AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS
ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 AND 2001 IS UNAUDITED)
1. THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
THE COMPANY
Digirad Corporation (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, designs, develops,
manufactures and markets solid-state digital gamma cameras for use in nuclear
medicine and provides mobile nuclear medicine imaging services. Nuclear medicine
imaging provides unique information about organ function and physiology and can
be used for the early detection of many forms of cancer and cardiovascular
disease. The Company's portable gamma cameras, which incorporate its proprietary
semiconductor detector technology, provide improved images, solid-state
reliability, and can be formatted into unique lightweight sizes and shapes. In
addition to conventional nuclear medicine applications, the Company's
solid-state cameras offer the medical profession imagers that can be used in a
variety of new clinical diagnostic imaging applications, which include cost
saving applications in the surgical centers, emergency rooms, intensive care
units, critical care units and other shared facilities.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
In 2000, the Company formed two Delaware corporations, Digirad Imaging
Solutions, Inc. and its subsidiary Digirad Imaging Systems, Inc., together
"DIS", to provide turn-key nuclear cardiology imaging to physicians in their
offices on a national basis. DIS is a wholly owned subsidiary of Digirad and was
capitalized by contributing certain acquired assets (see Note 2). The
accompanying consolidated financial statements include the operations of DIS.
Intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
INTERIM FINANCIAL DATA
The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 and 2001 are unaudited. The unaudited financial statements have
been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements and, in the
opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting of only normal
recurring adjustments, necessary to state fairly the financial information set
forth therein, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
The results of operations for the interim period ended June 30, 2001 are not
necessarily indicative of the results which may be reported for any other
interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2001.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial
statements and disclosures made in the accompanying notes to the consolidated
financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
PRO FORMA STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
If an initial public offering contemplated by this Prospectus is consummated
under the terms presently anticipated, all shares of redeemable convertible
preferred stock outstanding at June 30, 2001 will automatically convert into
27,129,568 common shares. Unaudited pro forma stockholders' equity at June 30,
2001, as adjusted for the conversion of the redeemable convertible preferred
stock is disclosed in the accompanying balance sheet.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(INFORMATION AS OF JUNE 30, 2001 AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS
ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 AND 2001 IS UNAUDITED)
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company considers all investments with an original maturity of three months
or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents primarily
represent funds invested in money market funds whose cost equals market value.
OTHER ASSETS
Other assets primarily consist of legal, accounting and other costs incurred in
connection with a proposed public offering of common stock in the Company. These
deferred offering costs total $626,572 and will be charged against the proceeds
received in connection with the offering. In the event the offering is
unsuccessful, these costs will be charged against the operations of the Company.
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
The Company sells its products to customers in the United States and Japan. A
relatively small number of customers account for a significant percentage of the
Company's revenues. For the year ended December 31, 2000, three product
customers accounted for 15.9%, 11.6% and 10.1% of our consolidated revenues.
However, for the six months ended June 30, 2001, no product customers accounted
for 10% or more of consolidated revenues. No imaging services customers
accounted for 10% or more of our consolidated revenues for the year ended
December 31, 2000 or the six months ended June 30, 2001. Revenues in 1998 and
1999 were for sales of various pre-commercialization components of the Company's
products, licensing and contract research and were not representative of the
Company's current products.
A significant percentage of the Company's net imaging services revenue in 2000
and 2001 is derived from governmental agencies, such as Medicare. Management
believes that there are minimal credit risks associated with transactions and
balances with these governmental agencies. However, there is a potential risk
that reimbursement rates can be reduced in the future.
The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses and contractual
allowances, which historically have been within management's estimates.
INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, cost being determined on
a first-in, first-out basis.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment, including assets
recorded under capital leases, is provided using the straight-line method over
the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which is
generally 3 to 10 years, or the lease term if applicable.
INTANGIBLES
Intangibles include acquired customer contracts, a covenant not-to-compete,
patents and trademarks and are recorded at cost. Intangibles, except for
patents, are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which range from three
to five years. Patents are amortized over the lesser of their estimated useful
or legal lives (up to 20 years).

(INFORMATION AS OF JUNE 30, 2001 AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS
ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 AND 2001 IS UNAUDITED)
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, ACCOUNTING FOR THE
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF,
which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in
operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash
flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets'
carrying amount. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to
be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the
assets exceeds the projected discounted future net cash flows arising from the
assets. SFAS 121 also addresses the accounting for long-lived assets that are
expected to be disposed of. To date, no such impairments have been identified.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenue when all four of the following criteria are met:
(i) persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery of the
products and/or services has occurred; (iii) the selling price is fixed or
determinable; and (iv) collectibility is reasonably assured. In addition, the
Company complies with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, REVENUE RECOGNITION
IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ("SAB 101"), which became effective in the fourth
quarter of 2000. SAB 101 sets forth guidelines on the timing of revenue
recognition based upon factors such as passage of title, installation, payment
and customer acceptance.
The Company has two primary sources of revenue which are product sales and
imaging services. Product revenues consist of revenues from the sales of gamma
cameras and revenues are recognized generally upon shipment and passage of
title. Revenue for products that have not previously satisfied customer
acceptance requirements or from sales where customer payments are based solely
on customer acceptance are recognized upon customer acceptance. The Company also
provides installation and training for camera sales. The installation is
outsourced to a national service company and training is provided by Company
representatives. Neither service is essential to the functionality of the
product. Both services are performed shortly after delivery and represent an
insignificant cost to the Company. The Company accrues these costs at the time
of shipment.
Imaging services revenue is derived from the Company's mobile nuclear imaging
services. Revenue related to mobile imaging services is recognized at the time
services are performed and collection is reasonably assured. Imaging services
revenue is billed on a per procedure or per day basis. The Company is reimbursed
for mobile imaging services provided to patients under certain programs
administered by governmental agencies and private insurance companies. Laws and
regulations governing the Medicare and Medicaid programs are complex and subject
to interpretation. The Company believes that they are in compliance with all
applicable laws and regulations and they are not aware of any pending or
threatened investigations involving allegations of potential wrongdoing.
Non-compliance can result in significant regulatory action including fines,
penalties and exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs.
In 1998, in addition to certain grant revenues, the Company also received
$1,250,000 from a collaboration agreement that was terminated in 1999.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion
No. 25, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK ISSUED TO EMPLOYEEs, and related Interpretations in
accounting for its employee stock

options. Under APB 25, if the exercise price of the Company's employee stock
options is not less than the fair market value of the underlying stock on the
date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized. In conjunction with the
Company's initial public offering contemplated by this prospectus and other
events that occurred in 2000, the Company reviewed its exercise prices and
arrived at a revised fair value for certain stock options granted subsequent to
June 30, 2000. With respect to the options granted between June 30, 2000 and
December 31, 2000 and for the six months ended June 30, 2001, the Company has
recorded deferred stock compensation of $800,735 and $1,996,183, respectively,
for the difference between the original exercise price per share determined by
the Board of Directors and the revised estimate of fair value per share at the
respective grant date. The approximate weighted average exercise price and
approximate weighted average revised fair value per share for the 798,250
options granted between June 30, 2000 and December 31, 2000 was $0.50 and $1.50,
respectively. The approximate weighted average exercise price and approximate
weighted average revised fair value per share for the 1,169,200 options granted
during the six months ended June 30, 2001 was $1.13 and $2.84, respectively.
Deferred stock compensation is recognized and amortized on an accelerated basis
in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation ("FIN")
No. 28, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS AND OTHER VARIABLE STOCK OPTION
OR AWARD PLANs, over the vesting period of the related options, generally four
years.
Deferred compensation for stock options and warrants granted to non-employees is
recorded at fair value as determined in accordance with SFAS No. 123, ACCOUNTING
FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATIOn, and Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF")
No. 96-18, ACCOUNTING FOR EQUITY INSTRUMENTS THAT ARE ISSUED TO OTHER THAN
EMPLOYEES FOR ACQUIRING OR IN CONJUNCTION WITH SELLING GOODS OR SERVICES. The
fair value of the unvested options and warrants is periodically remeasured and
the related amortization is adjusted as necessary. Compensation expense related
to stock options and warrants to purchase common stock issued to non-employees
was $32,272 for the year ended December 31, 2000 and $243,029 for the six months
ended June 30, 2001.
WARRANTY COSTS
The Company provides a warranty on certain of its products, generally for
periods of up to 12 months and accrues the estimated cost at the time revenue is
recorded.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
ADVERTISING COSTS
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Total advertising costs for the
years ended December 31, 1998, 1999 and 2000 and for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 and 2001, were $63,183, $205,500, $133,987, $117,787 and $174,883,
respectively.
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
SFAS No. 130, REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE INCOME, requires that all components of
comprehensive income, including net income, be reported in the financial
statements in the period in which they are recognized. Comprehensive income is
defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other
events and circumstances from non-owner sources, including unrealized gains and
losses on investments and foreign currency translation adjustments. The
Company's comprehensive loss is the same as the reported net loss for all
periods.

NET LOSS PER SHARE
The Company calculated net loss per share in accordance with SFAS 128, EARNINGS
PER SHARE, and SAB No. 98. Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated by
dividing the net income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding for the period, without
consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing
the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding for the period and the weighted average number of
dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period determined using
the treasury-stock method. For purposes of this calculation, common stock
subject to repurchase by the Company, convertible preferred stock, options, and
warrants are considered to be common stock equivalents and are only included in
the calculation of diluted earnings per share when their effect is dilutive.
Under the provisions of SAB No. 98, common shares issued for nominal
consideration (as defined), if any, would be included in the per share
calculations as if they were outstanding for all periods presented. No common
shares have been issued for nominal consideration.
Potentially dilutive securities totaling 21,973,776, 21,752,688, 30,412,668 and
33,466,687 for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1999 and 2000 and the six
months ended June 30, 2001, respectively, were excluded from historical basic
and diluted earnings per share because of their anti-dilutive effect.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE
INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES--DEFERRAL OF EFFECTIVE DATE OF FASB STATEMENT
NO. 133. SFAS No. 137 defers for one year the effective date of SFAS No. 133,
ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES, which was
originally issued in June 1998. SFAS No. 133 now will apply to all fiscal
quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.
SFAS No. 133 requires the Company to recognize all derivatives on the balance
sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair
value through income. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of
the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives will either be offset
against the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm
commitments through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until
the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a
derivative's change in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings. As
of December 31, 2000, the Company did not hold any derivative instruments, or
conduct any hedging activities. Therefore there is no anticipated impact to the
consolidated financial statements for the adoption of SFAS No. 133.
In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, BUSINESS COMBINATIONS, and SFAS
No. 142, GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS. SFAS No. 141 is effective for all
business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001; however, certain provisions
of this Statement apply to goodwill and other intangible assets acquired between
July 1, 2001 and the effective date of SFAS No. 142. Major provisions of these
Statements and their effective dates for the Company are as follows: (i) all
business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 must use the purchase method
of accounting. The pooling of interest method of accounting is prohibited except
for transactions initiated before July 1, 2001; (ii) Intangible assets acquired
in a business combination must be recorded separately from goodwill if they
arise from contractual or other legal rights or are separable from the acquired
entity and can be sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged, either
individually or as part of a related contract, asset or liability; (iii)
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives acquired after June 30,
2001, will not be amortized. Effective January 1, 2002, all previously
recognized goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives will no longer
be subject to amortization; (iv) Effective January 1, 2002, goodwill and
intangible assets with indefinite lives will be tested for impairment annually
and whenever there is an impairment indicator; and (v) all acquired goodwill
must be assigned to reporting units for purpose of impairment testing and
segment reporting. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that SFAS
Nos. 141 and 142 will have on its financial reporting requirements.
2. ASSET ACQUISITIONS
On August 31, 2000, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with
Florida Cardiology and Nuclear Medicine Group ("FC"), a provider of fixed site
and mobile nuclear imaging services that operates in Florida. The Company paid
$1,648,000 (including 300,000 shares of common stock valued at $411,000) to
acquire the accounts receivables, customer contracts of the mobile nuclear
imaging services of FC and a covenant not-to-compete from the seller. The
Company utilizes its technology, products, processes and procedures to provide
services to the customers acquired. The Company allocated the purchase price to
the assets acquired as follows: $101,000 to accounts receivable and

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(INFORMATION AS OF JUNE 30, 2001 AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS
ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 AND 2001 IS UNAUDITED)
$1,547,000 to customer contracts. The cost of the customer contracts is being
amortized over five years.
As additional consideration for the purchase of the assets, the Company shall
pay to FC a payment based on earnings before interest, income taxes,
depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") during the six months ending
August 31, 2001. The payout is payable 50% in cash and 50% in common stock to be
issued at the fair value at the date of issuance. In addition, if the Company
meets certain revenue collection thresholds during the nine-month period ending
one year from the closing of the purchase, the Company will issue 100,000 shares
of common stock to FC.
As part of the agreement with FC, the Company entered into a service agreement
with FC, whereby FC provided medical billing and collection services. In 2001,
the Company replaced FC with another third-party billing and collections service
provider.
In November 2000, the Company completed an Asset Purchase Agreement with Nuclear
Imaging Systems, Inc. and Cardiovascular Concepts, P.C. (together, "NIS"), a
provider of fixed site and mobile nuclear imaging services, which operated in
several Mid-Atlantic states. The Company paid $935,000 primarily to acquire
NIS's customer contracts. The Company utilizes its technology, products,
processes and procedures to provide imaging services to the customers acquired.
The Company allocated the purchase price to the assets acquired as follows:
$56,000 to fixed assets, $7,000 to deposits and $872,000 to customer contracts.
The cost of the customer contracts is being amortized over five years.
As part of the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a medical
billing and collection service agreement with Medical Management Concepts, Inc.
("MMC"), a subsidiary of NIS. In 2001 the agreement with MMC was terminated and
the Company replaced MMC with another third-party billing and collections
service provider.
In addition to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a
consulting agreement with the principal shareholder of NIS, whereby the
consultant agreed to provide consulting services (as defined) for a period of
three years ending on September 29, 2003. As compensation, the consultant could
receive up to 150,000 shares of the Company's common stock, based on achieving
certain revenue targets; however, as long as the consultant does not breach the
non-competition conditions, he will receive a minimum of 100,000 shares of
common stock. The fair value of the minimum 100,000 shares of common stock is
$172,000 and has been recorded as a covenant not-to-compete on the accompanying
balance sheet and amortized over three years.

NOTES PAYABLE TO FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS
In April 2000, the Company entered into a line of credit with a bank for a
$2,500,000 revolving line of credit. Borrowings under the line of credit accrue
interest at the bank's floating prime rate plus 1% (9.75% at December 31, 2000)
and are limited to the available borrowing base (as defined). In July 2001, the
line of credit was increased to $4,300,000 and the amended line of credit
accrues interest at the bank's floating prime rate plus 2%. The Company is
required to make monthly interest payments. The revolving line of credit expires
July 31, 2002 with any unpaid balance due upon expiration.
In November 1999, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement to
borrow up to $3,000,000. In August 2000, the Company modified its November 1999
loan agreement to borrow an additional $1,000,000. Borrowings under this
agreement accrue interest at rates between 13.53% and 14.40%. The Company is
required to make monthly payments of $156,273 on principal and interest through
November 2002.
During 1999 and 2000, in conjunction with the loan and security agreement (as
amended), the Company issued the lender warrants to purchase 294,713 shares of
Series E preferred stock at a price of $3.036 per share and valued the warrants
at $280,529. The warrants are exercisable immediately. The value of the warrant
is recorded as debt discount and is amortized to interest expense on a
straight-line basis over the term of the debt. The fair value of the warrants
was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following
assumptions: dividend yield of 0%; expected volatility of 75%; risk-free
interest rate of 6%; and a term of three years.

Deferred issuance costs through December 31, 2000 and June 30, 2001 for all
series of preferred stock totaled $385,758 and $473,652, respectively, and are
being accreted up to the redemption value through July 31, 2004 (the earliest
redemption date).
The preferred stock is redeemable on or after July 31, 2004, upon the request of
at least 66 2/3% of the holders of preferred stock. The Company shall redeem all
outstanding shares of preferred stock by paying in cash its liquidation value
plus declared but unpaid dividends. No dividends have been declared through
June 30, 2001.
The preferred stock will automatically be converted into shares of common stock
upon the closing of a sale of the Company's common stock in a public offering
registered under the Securities Act of 1933 which results in aggregate gross
proceeds equal to or exceeding $15,000,000 at a price equal to or exceeding
$7.50 per share of common stock, or with the approval of holders of at least 75%
of the outstanding shares of preferred stock and the approval of 60% of the
holders of Series D. Each share of the Series A, B, C, D, and E preferred stock
is convertible, at the option of the holder, into one share of the Company's
common stock, which has been reserved for issuance upon conversion of the
preferred stock, subject to certain antidilution adjustments.
Holders of the Series A, B, C, D, and E preferred stock are entitled to receive
dividends, if and when declared by the Board of Directors, at a rate of $0.10,
$0.11, $0.125, $0.231, and $0.304 per share per annum, respectively. The holder
of each share of preferred stock is entitled to the number of votes equal to the
number of shares of common stock into which the preferred stock could be
converted. The Company is subject to certain covenants under the agreements that
require the vote or written consent by a majority of the then outstanding
preferred shares regarding certain changes in the rights and interests of the
preferred shares. The shareholders also have certain antidilutive rights.

In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the
holders of preferred stock are entitled to receive their liquidation value prior
and in preference to any distribution of the assets or surplus funds of the
Company to the holders of common stock. If, upon the occurrence of such event,
the assets and funds distributed among the holders of preferred stock are
insufficient to permit full payment, the entire assets and funds of the Company
would be distributed among the preferred shareholders in proportion to the
product of the liquidation preference of each such share and the number of such

8. INCOME TAXES
As of December 31, 2000, the Company had federal and California income tax net
operating loss carryforwards of approximately $39,896,000 and $27,920,000,
respectively. The difference between the federal and California tax loss
carryforwards is primarily attributable to the 50% limitation in the utilization
of California net operating loss carryforwards. The federal tax loss
carryforwards will begin expiring in 2006 unless previously utilized. The
California tax loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2002 unless previously
utilized. The Company also has federal and California research and development
and other credit carryforwards of approximately $1,570,000 and $1,250,000,
respectively. The federal research and development and other credit
carryforwards begin to expire in 2005 unless previously utilized.

The Company's net operating loss and credit carryforwards are subject to an
annual limitation on their use as a result of changes in ownership during 1995
and 1997, pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Sections 382 and 383. However, these
annual limitations are not expected to have a material affect on the Company's
ability to utilize its carryforwards.
Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets are shown below. A
valuation allowance, of which $5,402,000 relates to 2000, has been recognized to
offset the deferred tax assets, as realization of such assets is uncertain.

During 2000, the Company commenced commercial operations and realigned its
operating structure into two reportable segments, products and imaging services.
The Company's new reporting segments have been determined based on the nature of
the products and/or services offered to customers or the nature of their
function in the organization. The Company evaluates performance and allocates
certain costs based on the percentage of sales contributed by each segment. The
accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described
in the summary of significant accounting policies. In prior years, the Company

10. EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT PLAN
The Company has a 401(k) retirement plan (the "Plan"), under which all full-time
employees may contribute up to 15% of their annual salary, within limits. The
Company may elect to make discretionary contributions upon the approval of the
Board of Directors. Through June 30, 2001, the Company had not contributed to
the Plan.
11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On August 23, 2001, the Company issued 2,618,462 shares of Series F preferred
stock at $3.25 per share for total proceeds of $8,510,002. These holders of the
Series F preferred stock are entitled to similar rights and privileges as
described in Note 6, except that the price-based antidilution provisions of the
Series F preferred stock were modified.
In July 2001, the Company was served with notice that a complaint had been filed
by Medical Management Concepts, Inc. in the United States District Court for the
Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The complaint alleges, among other things,
breach of the terms of a Services Agreement and an Employee Lease Agreement,
each dated September 2000 and entered into by and between DIS and MMC. This
complaint seeks recovery of damages for approximately $81,000 plus 12.5% of the
adjusted estimated net revenue generated from gross sums billed to our mobile
nuclear imaging customers from May 1, 2001 to October 31, 2003. The Company
believes it has meritorious defenses against this complaint and that its
ultimate resolution will not have a material impact on the financial statements.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to
include in its charter documents, and in agreements between the corporation and
its directors and officers, provisions expanding the scope of indemnification
beyond that specifically provided by the current law.
Article IV of the Registrant's amended and restated certificate of incorporation
allows for the indemnification of directors and officers to the fullest extent
permissible under Delaware law.
Article VI of the Registrant's bylaws provides for the indemnification of
officers, directors and third parties acting on behalf of us if such person
acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in and not opposed
to our best interest, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding,
the indemnified party had no reason to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with our directors
and executive officers, in addition to indemnification provided for in our
bylaws, and intends to enter into indemnification agreements with any new
directors and executive officers in the future. The indemnification agreements
may require the Registrant, among other things, to indemnify our directors and
officers against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or
service as directors and officers (other than liabilities arising from willful
misconduct of a culpable nature), to advance their expenses incurred as a result
of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified, and to
obtain directors' and officers' insurance, if available on reasonable terms. At
present, there is no litigation or proceeding pending involving a director,
officer or employee of the Registrant regarding which indemnification is sought,
nor is the Registrant aware of any threatened litigation that may result in
claims for indemnification.
Reference is also made to Section of the Underwriting Agreement, which
provides for the indemnification of officers, directors and controlling persons
of the Registrant against certain liabilities. The indemnification provision in
the Registrant's amended and restated certificate of incorporation, bylaws and
the indemnification agreements entered into between the Registrant and each of
its
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
II-1
PART II
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
directors and executive officers may be sufficiently broad to permit
indemnification of the Registrant's directors and executive officers for
liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933.
The Registrant applied for liability insurance for our officers and directors.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the Underwriter at
the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreement, certificates in such
denominations and registered in such names as required by the Underwriter to
permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless
in the opinion of counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933 the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this
Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of
prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424 (b)(1) or (4), or 497(h)
under the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of this Registration
Statement as of the time it was declared effective; and
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933 each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.

2. DIVIDEND PROVISIONS.
The holders of shares of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to
receive non-cumulative dividends, out of any assets legally available
therefor, prior and in preference to any declaration or payment of any

Common Stock or any other junior equity security of this Corporation, at the
rate of $.10 per share of Series A Preferred Stock, $.11 per share of Series
B Preferred Stock, $.125 per share of Series C Preferred Stock, $.23073 per
share of Series D Preferred Stock and $.3036 per share of Series E Preferred

when, as and if
-2-
declared by the Board of Directors and shall be non-cumulative. Dividends, if
declared, must be declared and paid with respect to all series of Preferred
Stock contemporaneously, and if less than full dividends are declared, the
same percentage of the dividend rate will be payable to each series of
Preferred Stock.
3. LIQUIDATION PREFERENCE.
(a) In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up
of this Corporation, either voluntary or involuntary, the holders of
Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any
distribution of any of the assets of this Corporation to the holders of
Common Stock or any other junior equity security by reason of their ownership
thereof an amount for each share of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E
Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock, respectively, held by such
holder equal to the sum of (i) $1.00 for each such outstanding share of
Series A Preferred Stock (the "Original Series A Issue Price"), (ii) $1.10
for each such outstanding share of Series B Preferred Stock (the "Original
Series B Issue Price"), (iii) $1.25 for each such outstanding share of Series
C Preferred Stock (the "Original Series C Issue Price"), (iv) $2.3073 for
each outstanding share of Series D Preferred Stock (the "Original Series D
Issue Price"), (v) $3.036 for each outstanding share of Series E Preferred
Stock (the "Original Series E Issue Price"), (vi) $3.25 for each outstanding
share of Series F Preferred Stock (the "Original Series F Issue Price") and
(vii) in each case, an amount equal to all declared but unpaid dividends on
each such share. If upon the occurrence of such an event the assets and funds
thus distributed among the holders of the Preferred Stock shall be
insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the full aforesaid
preferential amounts, then the entire assets and funds of this Corporation
legally available for distribution shall be distributed, ratably among the
holders of the Preferred Stock in proportion to the product of the
liquidation preference of each such share and the number of such shares owned
by each such holder.
(b) Upon the completion of the distribution required by
subsection 3(a) above, if assets remain in the Corporation, the holders of
the Common Stock shall receive an amount equal to $.21 per share (adjusted to
reflect any subsequent stock splits, stock dividends, or other
recapitalizations) for each share of Common Stock held by them. If, upon the
occurrence of such event, the assets and funds thus distributed among the
holders of the Common Stock shall be insufficient to permit payment to such
holders of the full aforesaid preferential amounts, then the entire assets
and funds of this Corporation legally available for distribution (after
giving effect to the distribution referred to in Section 3(a) hereof) shall
be distributed ratably among the holders of the Common Stock in proportion to
the amount of such stock owned by each such holder.
(c) After the distributions described in subsections 3(a) and
(b) have been paid, the remaining assets of this Corporation available for
distribution to stockholders shall be distributed among the holders of
Preferred Stock and Common Stock pro rata based on the number of shares of
Common Stock held by each (assuming conversion of all such Preferred Stock).

4. REDEMPTION.
(a) The outstanding Preferred Stock shall be redeemable as

Redemption Price shall be the total amount equal to $1.10 per share of Series
B Preferred Stock to be redeemed together with any declared but unpaid

(b) On or at any time after July 31, 2004, upon the receipt by
this Corporation from the holders of at least 66-2/3% of the then outstanding
shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock and
Series F Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class and on an
as-converted basis, of a written request for redemption hereunder of their
respective shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock
and Series F Preferred Stock (the "Redemption Request"), this Corporation
shall, from any source of funds legally available therefor, redeem all of the
shares of Preferred Stock by paying in cash therefor a sum equal to the
Series A Redemption Price, the Series B Redemption Price, the Series C
Redemption Price, the Series D Redemption Price, the Series E Redemption
Price and the Series F Redemption Price, respectively.
(c) (i) At least 15, but no more than 30, days prior to the
date fixed for any redemption of the Preferred Stock (the "Redemption Date"),
which Redemption Date shall be no later than 45 days following the
Corporation's receipt of the Redemption Request, this Corporation shall mail
written notice, first class postage prepaid, to each holder of record (at the
close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which notice
is given) of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock and
Series F Preferred Stock to be redeemed at the address last shown on the
records of this Corporation for such holder or given by the holder to this
Corporation for the purpose of notice or if no such address appears or is
given, at the place where the principal executive office of this Corporation
is located, notifying such holder of the redemption to be effected,
specifying the number of shares to be redeemed from such holder, the
Redemption Date, the Series A Redemption Price, the Series B Redemption
Price, the Series C Redemption Price, the Series D Redemption Price, the
Series E Redemption Price or the Series F Redemption Price, as the case may
be, the place at which payment may be obtained and the date on which such
holder's Conversion Rights (as hereinafter defined) as to such shares
terminate, and calling upon such holder to surrender to this Corporation, in
the manner and at the place
-4-
designated, such holder's certificate or certificates representing the shares
to be redeemed (the "Redemption Notice"). Except as provided in subsection
4(c)(iii), on or after the Redemption Date, each holder of Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred
Stock, Series E Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock to be redeemed
shall surrender to this Corporation the certificate or certificates
representing such shares, in the manner and at the place designated in the
Redemption Notice, and thereupon the Series A Redemption Price, Series B
Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, the Series D Redemption Price,
the Series E Redemption Price or the Series F Redemption Price, as the case
may be, of such shares shall be payable, to the order of the person whose
name appears on such certificate or certificates as the owner thereof and
each surrendered certificate shall be canceled. In the event less than all
the shares represented by any such certificate are redeemed, a new
certificate shall be issued representing the unredeemed shares.
(ii) If the funds of the Corporation legally available
for redemption of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock on any Redemption
Date are insufficient to redeem the total number of shares of Preferred Stock
to be redeemed on such date, those funds which are legally available will be
used to redeem the maximum possible number of such shares ratably among the
holders of (A) first, such shares of Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock and
Series F Preferred Stock to be redeemed, and (B) second, such shares of
Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed. The shares of Preferred Stock not
redeemed shall remain outstanding and entitled to all the rights and
preferences provided herein. At any time thereafter when additional funds of
this Corporation are legally available for the redemption of shares of
Preferred Stock, such funds shall immediately be used to redeem the balance
of the shares which this Corporation has become obligated to redeem on any
Redemption Date but which it has not redeemed.
(iii) From and after the Redemption Date, unless there
shall have been a default in payment of the applicable Series A Redemption
Price, Series B Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D
Redemption Price, Series E Redemption Price or Series F Redemption Price, all
rights of the holders of such shares as holders of Series A Preferred Stock,
Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock,
Series E Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock (except the right to
receive the Series A Redemption Price, Series B Redemption Price, Series C
Redemption Price, Series D Redemption Price, Series E Redemption Price or
Series F Redemption Price, without interest, upon surrender of their
certificate or certificates) shall cease with respect to such shares, and
such shares shall not thereafter be transferred on the books of this
Corporation or be deemed to be outstanding for any purpose whatsoever.
(iv) At least three days prior to the Redemption Date,
this Corporation shall deposit the Series A Redemption Price, Series B
Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D Redemption Price,
Series E Redemption Price and Series F Redemption Price, of all outstanding
shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock and
Series F Preferred Stock, designated for redemption in the Redemption Notice,
and not yet redeemed or converted, with a bank or trust company having
aggregate capital and surplus in excess of $50,000,000, as a trust fund for
the benefit of the holders of the shares designated for redemption and not
yet redeemed. Simultaneously, this Corporation shall deposit irrevocable
instructions
-5-
and authority to such bank or trust company to pay, on and after the
Redemption Date or prior thereto, the Series A Redemption Price, Series B
Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D Redemption Price,
Series E Redemption Price and Series F Redemption Price, as the case may be,
to the holders thereof upon surrender of their certificates. Any monies
deposited by this Corporation pursuant to this subsection 4(c)(iv) for the
redemption of shares which are thereafter converted into shares of Common
Stock pursuant to Section 5 hereof no later than the close of business on the
Redemption Date shall be returned to this Corporation forthwith upon such
conversion. The balance of any monies deposited by this Corporation pursuant
to this subsection 4(c)(iv) remaining unclaimed at the expiration of two
years following the Redemption Date shall thereafter be returned to this
Corporation, provided that the stockholder to which such monies would be
payable hereunder shall be entitled, upon proof of its ownership of the
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock,
Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock or Series F Preferred
Stock, as the case may be, and payment of any bond requested by this
Corporation, to receive such monies but without interest from the Redemption
Date.
5. CONVERSION. The holders of Preferred Stock shall have conversion
rights as follows (the "Conversion Rights"):
(a) RIGHT TO CONVERT.
(i) Subject to subsection 5(c), each outstanding share of
Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof at
any time after the date of issuance of such share (and on or prior to the
fifth day prior to the Redemption Date, if any, as may have been fixed in any
Redemption Notice), at the office of this Corporation or any transfer agent
for such series of Preferred Stock, into such number of fully paid and
nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the
Original Series A Issue Price, the Original Series B Issue Price, the
Original Series C Issue Price, the Original Series D Issue Price, the
Original Series E Issue Price and the Original Series F Issue Price,
respectively, by the Conversion Price at the time in effect for such series
or shares of such series. The initial Conversion Price per share for shares
of Preferred Stock shall be the Original Series A Issue Price, the Original
Series B Issue Price, the Original Series C Issue Price, the Original Series
D Issue Price, the Original Series E Issue Price and the Original Series F
Issue Price, respectively, provided, however, that the Conversion Prices for
the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series C
Preferred Stock, the Series D Preferred Stock, the Series E Preferred Stock
and the Series F Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment as set forth
in subsection 5(c).
(ii) Each outstanding share of Preferred Stock shall
automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the Conversion
Price at the time in effect for such shares immediately upon:
(A) the closing of this Corporation's sale of its
Common Stock in a bona fide, firm commitment underwritten public offering
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"), which results in aggregate gross offering proceeds to this Corporation
of at least $15,000,000, at a public offering price of not less
-6-
than $7.50 per share (adjusted to reflect subsequent stock dividends, stock
splits or recapitalizations) (a "Qualifying Public Offering"); or
(B) the approval of (i) holders of at least 75% of
the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred
Stock and Series F Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class and on
an as-converted basis and (ii) holders of not less than 60% of the Series D
Preferred Stock voting as a class, provided, however, that if such approval
is in connection with an underwritten offer of securities registered pursuant
to the Securities Act, the conversion may be conditioned upon the closing of
the sale of securities pursuant to such offering, in which event each
outstanding share of Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to have converted
until immediately after the closing of such sale of securities.
(b) MECHANICS OF CONVERSION. Before any holder of Preferred
Stock shall be entitled to convert the same into shares of Common Stock, such
holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly
endorsed, at the office of this Corporation or of any transfer agent for such
stock, and shall be given written notice by mail postage prepaid, to this
Corporation at its principal corporate office, of the election to convert the
same and shall state therein the name or names in which the certificate or
certificates for shares of Common Stock are to be issued. This Corporation
shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver at such office to
such holder of Preferred Stock, or to the nominee or nominees of such holder,
a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to
which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. Such conversion shall be
deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the
date of such surrender of the shares of such series of Preferred Stock to be
converted, and the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Common
Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the
record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock as of such date. If
the conversion is in connection with an underwritten offer of securities
registered pursuant to the Securities Act, the conversion may, at the option
of any holder tendering shares of such series of Preferred Stock for
conversion, be conditioned upon the closing with the underwriter of the sale
of securities pursuant to such offering, in which event the person(s)
entitled to receive the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion of shares
of such series of Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to have converted such
shares of such series of Preferred Stock until immediately after the closing
of such sale of securities.
(c) CONVERSION PRICE ADJUSTMENTS OF THE PREFERRED STOCK. The
Conversion Prices of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock
and Series F Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment from time to time
as follows:
(i) (A) (1) If this Corporation shall issue any
Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a
consideration per share less than the Conversion Price for shares of the
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock,
Series D Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock in effect immediately
prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock, the new Conversion Price for
such shares of such series of Preferred Stock shall be determined by
multiplying the Conversion Price
-7-
for such series of Preferred Stock in effect immediately prior to the
issuance of Additional Stock by a fraction:
(x) the numerator of which shall be the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior
to such issuance (for purposes of this calculation only,
including the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable
upon the conversion of all outstanding shares of Preferred
Stock at the Conversion Price for such shares in effect
immediately prior to such issuance of Additional Stock) plus
the number of shares of Common Stock equivalents which the
aggregate consideration received by this Corporation for the
shares of such Additional Stock so issued would purchase at
the Conversion Price in effect at the time for the shares of
the series of Preferred Stock with respect to which the
adjustment is being made; and
(y) the denominator of which shall be the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior
to such issuance (for purposes of this calculation only,
including the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable
upon the conversion of all outstanding shares of Preferred
Stock at the Conversion Price for such shares in effect
immediately prior to such issuance of Additional Stock) plus
the number of such shares of Additional Stock so issued.
Any series of issuances of Additional Stock consisting of
Common Stock or the same series of Preferred Stock, issued at the same price
and within a six-month period, shall be treated as one issuance of Additional
Stock for the purposes of this calculation.
(2) If this Corporation shall issue, at any
time after the date upon which any shares of Series F Preferred Stock were
first issued (the "Series F Purchase Date") and on or before December 31,
2001, any Additional Stock (other than shares of Series F Preferred Stock)
without consideration or for a consideration per share less than $3.50 (as
adjusted to reflect stock dividends, stock splits or recapitalizations), the
new Conversion Price for such shares of Series F Preferred Stock shall be
adjusted to a price equal to the greater of: (1) the product of 0.925 and the
per share price of the Additional Stock, and (2) $3.036.
(3) (x) If this Corporation shall issue,
at any time on or after January 1, 2002, any Additional
Stock for a consideration per share (a) less than the
Conversion Price for such shares of Series F Preferred
Stock in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such
Additional Stock, and (b) in an amount equal to or greater
than $3.036 per share (as adjusted to reflect stock
dividends, stock splits or recapitalizations), the new
Conversion Price for such shares of Series F Preferred
Stock in effect immediately prior to such issuance shall be
adjusted to a price equal to the price paid per share for
such Additional Stock.
(y) If this Corporation shall issue,
any time on or after January 1, 2002, any Additional Stock
without consideration or for a consideration less than
$3.036 per share (as adjusted to reflect stock dividends,
stock splits or recapitalizations) at a time when the
applicable Conversion Price for the shares of Series F
Preferred Stock is greater than $3.036 per share (as
adjusted to reflect stock dividends, stock splits or
recapitalizations), the new Conversion Price for such
shares of
-8-
Series F Preferred Stock in effect immediately prior to
such issuance shall first be adjusted to a price of $3.036
(as adjusted to reflect stock dividends, stock splits or
recapitalizations), and then this new Conversion Price of
$3.036 (as adjusted to reflect stock dividends, stock
splits or recapitalizations) shall be further adjusted by
multiplying $3.036 (as adjusted to reflect stock dividends,
stock splits or recapitalizations) by a fraction:
(i) the numerator of which shall be the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such issuance (for purposes of this calculation
only, including the number of shares of Common Stock then
issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding shares of
Preferred Stock at the Conversion Price for such shares in
effect immediately prior to such issuance of Additional
Stock) plus the number of shares of Common Stock
equivalents which the aggregate consideration received by
this Corporation for the shares of such Additional Stock so
issued would purchase at $3.036 per share (as adjusted to
reflect stock dividends, stock splits or
recapitalizations); and
(ii) the denominator of which shall be
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such issuance (for purposes of this
calculation only, including the number of shares of Common
Stock then issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding
shares of Preferred Stock at the Conversion Price for such
shares in effect immediately prior to such issuance of
Additional Stock) plus the number of such shares of
Additional Stock so issued.
(z) If this Corporation shall issue, any
time on or after January 1, 2002, any Additional Stock without
consideration or for a consideration less than $3.036 per
share (as adjusted to reflect stock dividends, stock splits or
recapitalizations) and less than the then-applicable
Conversion Price for the shares of Series F Preferred Stock,
at a time when the applicable Conversion Price for the shares
of Series F Preferred Stock is equal to or less than
$3.036 per share (as adjusted to reflect stock dividends,
stock splits or recapitalizations), the new Conversion Price
for the shares of Series F Preferred Stock shall be determined
by multiplying the Conversion Price for the Series F Preferred
Stock in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such
Additional Stock by a fraction:
(i) the numerator of which shall be the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior
to such issuance (for purposes of this calculation only,
including the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable
upon the conversion of all outstanding shares of Preferred
Stock at the Conversion Price for such shares in effect
immediately prior to such issuance of Additional Stock) plus
the number of shares of Common Stock equivalents which the
aggregate consideration received by this Corporation for the
shares of such Additional Stock so issued would purchase at
the Conversion Price in effect at the time for the shares of
Series F Preferred Stock; and
-9-
(ii) the denominator of which shall be
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such issuance (for purposes of this calculation only,
including the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable
upon the conversion of all outstanding shares of Preferred
Stock at the Conversion Price for such shares in effect
immediately prior to such issuance of Additional Stock) plus
the number of such shares of Additional Stock so issued.
Any series of issuances of Additional Stock consisting of
Common Stock or the same series of Preferred Stock, issued at the same price and
within a six-month period, shall be treated as one issuance of Additional Stock
for the purposes of this calculation.
(B) Except for the adjustments required by Section
(c)(i)(A)(2) and Section (c)(i)(A)(3)(x), no adjustment of the Conversion
Price for such series of Preferred Stock shall be made in an amount less than
one cent per share, provided that any adjustments which are not required to
be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be
either taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made prior to three
years from the date of the event giving rise to the adjustment being carried
forward, or shall be made at the end of three years from the date of the
event giving rise to the adjustment being carried forward. Except to the
limited extent provided for in subsections 5(c)(i)(E)(3) and (c)(i)(E)(4), no
adjustment of such Conversion Price for such series of Preferred Stock
pursuant to this subsection 5(c)(i) shall have the effect of increasing the
Conversion Price for such series of Preferred Stock above the Conversion
Price for such series in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.
(C) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for
cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid
therefor before deducting any reasonable discounts, commissions or other
expenses allowed, paid or incurred by this Corporation for any underwriting
or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof.
(D) In the case of the issuance of the Common Stock
for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration
other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined by
the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment.
(E) In the case of the issuance of options to
purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms
convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or options to purchase or
rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities (which
are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock), the following
provisions shall apply:
(1) The aggregate maximum number of shares of
Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options to purchase or rights
to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time
such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the
consideration (determined in the manner provided in subsections 5(c)(i)(C)
and (c)(i)(D)), if any, received by the Corporation upon the issuance of
-10-
such options or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such
options or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby.
(2) The aggregate maximum number of shares of
Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such
convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options to
purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable
securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to
have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options or
rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration, if
any, received by this Corporation for any such securities and related options
or rights (excluding any cash received on account of accrued interest or
accrued dividends), plus the additional consideration, if any, to be received
by this Corporation upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the
exercise of any related options or rights (the consideration in each case to
be determined in the manner provided in subsections 5(c)(i)(C) and (c)(i)(D)).
(3) In the event of any change in the number of
shares of Common Stock deliverable or any increase in the consideration
payable to this Corporation upon exercise of such options or rights or upon
conversion of or in exchange for such convertible or exchangeable securities,
including, but not limited to, a change resulting from the anti-dilution
provisions thereof, the Conversion Price of the Series A Preferred Stock,
Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock,
Series E Preferred Stock or Series F Preferred Stock, as the case may be,
obtained with respect to the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of
such options, rights or securities, and any subsequent adjustments based
thereon shall be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment
shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock or any payment of such
consideration upon the exercise of any such options or rights or the
conversion or exchange of such securities; provided, however, that this
section shall not have any effect on any conversion of such series of
Preferred Stock prior to such change or increase.
(4) Upon the expiration of any such options or
rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the
expiration of any options or rights related to such convertible or
exchangeable securities, the Conversion Price of the Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred
Stock, Series E Preferred Stock or Series F Preferred Stock, as the case may
be, obtained with respect to the adjustment which was made upon the issuance
of such options, rights or securities or options or rights related to such
securities, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall be recomputed
to reflect the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually
issued upon the exercise of such options or rights upon the conversion or
exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options or rights
related to such securities; provided, however, that this section shall not
have any effect on any conversion of such series of Preferred Stock prior to
such expiration or termination.
(ii) "Additional Stock" shall mean any shares of Common
Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to subsection
5(c)(i)(E)) by this Corporation after June 22, 1998, other than:
-11-
(A) Common Stock issued pursuant to a transaction
described in subsection 5(c)(iii) hereof; or
(B) 8,154,860 shares of Common Stock, net of
repurchases and the cancellation or expiration of options, issued or issuable
to employees, directors, consultants or advisors of this Corporation under
stock option and restricted stock purchase agreements approved by the Board
of Directors commencing as of May 1994, and such other number of shares of
Common Stock as may be fixed from time to time by the Board of Directors and
approved by a majority of then outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E
Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock, voting as a single class,
issued or issuable to employees, directors, consultants or advisors of this
Corporation under stock option and restricted stock purchase agreements
approved by the Board of Directors; or
(C) Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion
of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred

Preferred Stock; or
(D) Common Stock issued or issuable in connection
with a bona fide business acquisition of or by the Corporation, whether by
merger, consolidation, sale of assets, sale or exchange of stock or otherwise
upon terms approved by the Board of Directors (including such shares of
Common Stock issued or issuable prior to the date hereof); or
(E) Common Stock issued or issuable in connection
with services rendered or to be rendered to the Corporation by consultants
upon terms approved by the Board of Directors (including such shares of
Common Stock issued or issuable prior to the date hereof); or
(F) Common Stock issued or issuable in connection
with credit agreements with equipment lessors or commercial lenders upon
terms approved by the Board of Directors (including such shares of Common
Stock issued or issuable prior to the date hereof); or
(G) any right, option or warrant to acquire any
security convertible into the securities excluded from the definition of
Additional Stock pursuant to subsections (A) through (F) above (including any
such right, option or warrant issued or issuable prior to the date hereof).
(iii) In the event this Corporation should at any time or
from time to time after the effective date hereof fix a record date for the
effectuation of a split or subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock or the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive a
dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock
or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder
thereof to receive directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock
(hereinafter referred to as
-12-
"Common Stock Equivalents") without payment of any consideration by such
holder for the additional shares of Common Stock or the Common Stock
Equivalents (including the additional shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion or exercise thereof), then as of such record date (or the date of
such dividend distribution, split or subdivision if no record date is fixed),
the Conversion Price for the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred
Stock or Series F Preferred Stock, as the case may be, shall be appropriately
decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on
conversion of each share of such series shall be increased in proportion
to such increase of outstanding shares determined in accordance with
subsection 5(c)(i)(E).
(iv) If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
at any time after the effective date hereof is decreased by a combination of
the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date of
such combination, the Conversion Price for the Series A Preferred Stock,
Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock,
Series E Preferred Stock or Series F Preferred Stock, as the case may be,
shall be appropriately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable on conversion of each share of such series shall be decreased in
proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares.
(d) OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. In the event this Corporation shall
declare a distribution payable in securities of other persons, evidences of
indebtedness issued by this Corporation or other persons, assets (excluding
cash dividends) or options or rights not referred to in subsection 5(c)(iii),
then, in each such case for the purpose of this subsection 5(d), the holders
of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred
Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock and Series F
Preferred Stock, shall be entitled to a proportionate share of any such
distribution as though they were the holders of the number of shares of
Common Stock of this Corporation into which their shares of Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock or Series F Preferred Stock, as the
case may be, are convertible as of the record date fixed for the
determination of the holders of Common Stock of this Corporation entitled to
receive such distribution.
(e) RECAPITALIZATIONS. If at any time or from time to time
there shall be a recapitalization of the Common Stock (other than a
subdivision, combination or merger or sale of assets transaction provided for
elsewhere in this Section 5 or Section 6) provision shall be made so that the
holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock and
Series F Preferred Stock, shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon
conversion of such series of Preferred Stock the number of shares of stock or
other securities or property of this Corporation or otherwise, to which a
holder of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled
on such recapitalization. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be
made in the application of the provisions of this Section 5 with respect to
the rights of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred
Stock and Series F Preferred Stock, after the recapitalization to the end
that the provisions of this Section 5 (including adjustment of the Conversion
Price then in effect and the number of shares purchasable upon conversion of
such series of Preferred Stock) shall be applicable after that event as
nearly equivalent as may be practicable.
-13-
(f) NO IMPAIRMENT. This Corporation will not, by amendment of
its Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization,
revitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue
or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid
the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed
hereunder by this Corporation, but will at all times in good faith assist in
the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 5 and in the taking of
all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the
Conversion Rights of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E
Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock against impairment.
(g) FRACTIONAL SHARES AND CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS.
(i) No fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion
of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred
Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock or Series F
Preferred Stock, and the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall
be rounded to the nearest whole share. Whether or not fractional shares are
issuable upon such conversion shall be determined on the basis of the total
number of shares of such series of Preferred Stock the holder is at the time
converting into Common Stock and the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon such aggregate conversion.
(ii) Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or,
readjustment of the Conversion Price of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E
Preferred Stock or Series F Preferred Stock, as the case may be, pursuant to
this Section 5, this Corporation, at its expense, shall promptly compute such
adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare
and furnish to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred
Stock and Series F Preferred Stock, or instrument convertible into shares of
any such series of Preferred Stock, as the case may be, a certificate setting
forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon
which such adjustment or readjustment is based. This Corporation shall, upon
the written request furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a like
certificate setting forth (A) such adjustment and readjustment, (B) the
Conversion Price at the time in effect, and (C) the number of shares of
Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other property which at the time
would be received upon the conversion of a share of such series of Preferred
Stock.
(h) NOTICES OF RECORD DATE. In the event of any taking by this
Corporation of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the
purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any
dividend (other than a cash dividend) or other distribution, any right to
subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class
or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, this
Corporation shall mail to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E
Preferred Stock or Series F Preferred Stock at least 20 days prior to the
date specified therein, a notice specifying the date on which by such record
is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right and
the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right.
-14-
(i) RESERVATION OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION. This
Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock solely for the purpose of
effecting the conversion of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E
Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock, such number of its shares of
Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the
conversion of all authorized shares of such series of Preferred Stock, and if
at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock
shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then authorized
shares of such series of Preferred Stock, in addition to such other remedies
as shall be available to the holders of such series of Preferred Stock, this
Corporation will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its
counsel be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common
Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.
(j) NOTICES. Any notice required by the provisions of this
Section 5 to be given to the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock,
Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock,
Series E Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock shall be deemed given
if deposited in the United States postage prepaid, and addressed to each
holder of record at such holder's address appearing on the books of this
Corporation.
6. MERGER; CONSOLIDATION.
(a) If at any time after the effective date hereof there is a
merger, consolidation or other corporate reorganization in which stockholders
of this Corporation immediately prior to such transaction own less than 50%
of the voting securities of the surviving or controlling entity immediately
after the transaction, or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of
this Corporation (hereinafter, an "Acquisition"), then, as a part of such
Acquisition, provision shall be made so that the holders of the Series A
Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series C Preferred Stock,
the Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred
Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior to any distribution to holders of
Common Stock or other junior equity security of the Corporation, the number
of shares of stock or other securities or property to be issued to this
Corporation or its stockholders resulting from such Acquisition in an amount
per share equal to the Original Series A Issue Price, Original Series B Issue
Price, Original Series C Issue Price, Original Series D Issue Price, Original
Series E Issue Price and Original Series F Issue Price, as applicable, plus a
further amount equal to any dividends declared but unpaid on such shares.
Subject to the following sentence, the holders of Common Stock shall
thereafter be entitled to receive, pro rata, the remainder of the number of
shares of stock or other securities or property to be issued to this
Corporation or its stockholders resulting from such Acquisition.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, in the event the
aggregate value of stock, securities and other property to be distributed to
this Corporation or its stockholders with respect to an Acquisition is less
than $5.25 per share (such dollar amount to be appropriately adjusted to
reflect any subsequent stock splits, stock dividends or other
recapitalizations) of Common Stock outstanding (for purpose of this
calculation only, including in the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon
conversion of all outstanding Preferred Stock), then the stock, securities or
other property shall be distributed among the holders of Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, the Series D
Preferred Stock, Series E
-15-
Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and the Common Stock according to
the provisions of Section 3 hereof as if such Acquisition were deemed a
liquidation.

Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, the
Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock
and Common Stock pursuant to subsection 6(a) above shall be valued as follows:
(i) Securities not subject to investment letter or other
similar restrictions on free marketability;
(A) If traded on a securities exchange, the value
shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices of the securities on
such exchange over the 30-day period ending three days prior to the closing;
(B) If actively traded over-the-counter, the value
shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid or sale prices
(whichever are applicable) over the 30-day period ending three days prior to
the closing; and
(C) If there is no active public market, the value
shall be the fair market value thereof, as mutually determined by the
Corporation and the holders of not less than a majority of the then
outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, the Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred
Stock and Series F Preferred Stock.
(ii) The method of valuation of securities subject to
investment letter or other restrictions on free marketability shall be to
make an appropriate discount from the market value determined as above in
subsections 6(b)(i)(A), (B) or (C) to reflect the approximate fair market
value thereof, as mutually determined by this Corporation and the holders of
a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series
B Preferred, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E
Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock, voting as a single class.
(c) In the event the requirements of subsection 6(a) are not
complied with, this Corporation shall forthwith either:
(i) cause such closing to be postponed until such time as
the requirements of this Section 6 have been complied with, or
(ii) cancel such transaction, in which event the rights,
preferences and privileges of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock,
Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock,
Series E Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock shall revert to and be
the same as such rights, preferences and privileges existing immediately
prior to the date of the first notice referred to in subsection 6(d) hereof.
(d) This Corporation shall give each holder of record of
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock,
Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock or Series F Preferred
Stock written notice of such impending transaction
-16-
not later than 20 days prior to the stockholders' meeting called to approve
such action, or 20 days prior to the closing of such transaction, whichever
is earlier, and shall also notify such holders in writing of the final
approval of such transaction. The first of such notices shall describe the
material terms and conditions of the impending transaction and the provisions
of this Section 6, and this Corporation shall thereafter give such holders
prompt notice of any material changes. The transaction shall in no event take
place earlier than 20 days after the Corporation has given the first notice
provided for herein or earlier than 10 days after the Corporation has given
notice of any material changes provided for herein; provided, however, that
such periods may be shortened upon the written consent of the holders of a
majority of the then outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred
Stock and Series F Preferred Stock voting as a class.
(e) The provisions of this Section 6 are in addition to the

(30) days or more from the date set for the original meeting.
Section 6. QUORUM. The presence in person or by proxy of the persons
entitled to vote a majority of the shares entitled to vote at any meeting
constitutes a quorum for the transaction of

notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a
quorum, if any action taken (other than adjournment) is approved by at least
a majority of the shares required to constitute a quorum.
In the absence of a quorum, any meeting of stockholders may be
adjourned from time to time by the vote of a majority of the shares, the holders
of which are either present in person or represented by proxy thereat, but no
other business may be transacted, except as provided above.

at any meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting and without prior
notice, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be
signed by the holders of outstanding shares 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;
provided, however, that (i) notice of any stockholder approval without a meeting
by less than unanimous written consent shall be given as required by the General
Corporation Law of Delaware, and (ii) directors may not be elected by written
consent except by unanimous written consent of all shares entitled to vote for
the election of directors.
Any written consent may be revoked by a writing received by the

number of shares required to authorize the proposed action have been filed with
the Secretary.
Section 8. WAIVER OF NOTICE. The transactions of any meeting of
stockholders, however called and noticed, and whenever held, shall be as valid
as though had at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice, if a quorum
be present either in person or by proxy, and if, either before or after the
meeting, each of the persons entitled to vote, not present in person or by
3
proxy, signs a written waiver of notice, or a consent to the holding of the
meeting, or an approval of the minutes thereof. All such waivers, consents, or
approvals shall be filed with the corporate records or made a part of the
minutes of the meeting.
Section 9. VOTING. The voting at all meetings of stockholders need not
be by ballot, but any qualified stockholder before the voting begins may demand
a stock vote whereupon such stock vote shall be taken by ballot, each of which
shall state the name of the stockholder voting and the number of shares voted by
such stockholder, and if such ballot be cast by a proxy, it shall also state the
name of any such proxy.
At any meeting of the stockholders, every stockholder having the right
to vote shall be entitled to vote in person, or by proxy appointed in a writing
subscribed by such stockholder and bearing a date not more than three years
prior to said meeting, unless the writing states that it is irrevocable and
satisfies Section 212(e) of the General Corporation Law of Delaware, in which
event it is irrevocable for the period specified in said writing and said
Section 212(e).
Section 10. RECORD DATES. In the event the Board of Directors fixes a
day for the determination of stockholders of record entitled to vote as provided
in Section 1 of Article V of these Bylaws, then, subject to the provisions of
the General Corporation Law of Delaware only persons in whose name shares
entitled to vote stand on the stock records of the Corporation at the close of
business on such day shall be entitled to vote.
If no record date is fixed:
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
business day next preceding the day notice is given or, if notice is waived, at
the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which the
meeting is held;
4
The record date for determining stockholders entitled to give consent
to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the
Board of Directors is necessary, shall be the day on which the first written
consent is given; and
The record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose
shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors
adopts the resolution relating thereto, or the sixtieth (60th) day prior to the
date of such other action, whichever is later.
A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to
vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting
unless the Board of Directors fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting,
but the Board of Directors shall fix a new record date if the meeting is
adjourned for more than thirty (30) days.
Section 11. CUMULATIVE VOTING FOR ELECTION OF DIRECTORS. Provided the
candidate's name has been placed in nomination prior to the voting and one or
more stockholders has given notice at the meeting prior to the voting of the
stockholder's intent to cumulate the stockholder's votes, every stockholder
entitled to vote at any election for directors shall have the right to cumulate
such stockholder's votes and give one candidate a number of votes equal to the
number of directors to be elected multiplied by the number of votes to which the
stockholder's shares are normally entitled, or distribute the stockholder's
votes on the same principle among as many candidates as the stockholder shall
think fit. The candidates receiving the highest number of votes of the shares
entitled to be voted for them up to the number of directors to be elected by
such shares are elected.
ARTICLE III. - BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Section 1. POWERS. Subject to any limitations in the Certificate of
Incorporation or these Bylaws and to any provision of the General Corporation
Law of Delaware requiring stockholder
5
authorization or approval for a particular action, the business and affairs
of the Corporation shall be managed and all corporate powers shall be
exercised by, or under the direction of, the Board of Directors. The Board of
Directors may delegate the management of the day-to-day operation of the
business of the Corporation to a management company or other person provided
that the business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed and all
corporate powers shall be exercised, under the ultimate direction of the
Board of Directors.
Section 2. NUMBER, TENURE AND QUALIFICATIONS. The authorized number of
directors of the Corporation shall be not less than five (5) nor more than nine

The exact number of directors presently authorized shall be six (6) until
changed within the limits specified above by a duly adopted resolution of the
Board of Directors or stockholders.
Directors shall hold office until the next annual meeting of
stockholders and until their respective successors are elected. If any such
annual meeting is not held, or the directors are not elected thereat, the
directors may be elected at any special meeting of stockholders held for that
purpose. Directors need not be stockholders.
Section 3. REGULAR MEETINGS. A regular annual meeting of the Board of
Directors shall be held without other notice than this bylaw immediately after,
and at the same place as, the annual meeting of stockholders. The Board of
Directors may provide for other regular meetings from time to time by
resolution.
Section 4. SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the Board of Directors
may be called at any time by the Chairman of the Board, or the President, or any
Vice President, or the Secretary or any two (2) directors. Written notice of the
time and place of all special meetings of
6
the Board of Directors shall be delivered personally or by telephone,
facsimile or telegraph to each director at least forty-eight (48) hours
before the meeting, or sent to each director by first-class mail, postage
prepaid, at least four (4) days before the meeting. Such notice need not
specify the purpose of the meeting. Notice of any meeting of the Board of
Directors need not be given to any director who signs a waiver of notice,
whether before or after the meeting, or who attends the meeting without
protesting prior thereto, or at its commencement, the lack of notice to such
Director.
Section 5. PLACE OF MEETINGS. Meetings of the Board of Directors may be
held at any place within or without the State of Delaware, which has been
designated in the notice, or if not stated in the notice or there is no notice,
the principal executive office of the Corporation or as designated by the
resolution duly adopted by the Board of Directors.
Section 6. PARTICIPATION BY TELEPHONE. Members of the Board of
Directors may participate in a meeting through use of conference telephone or
similar communications equipment, so long as all members participating in such
meeting can hear one another.
Section 7. QUORUM. A majority of the directors shall constitute a
quorum. In the absence of a quorum, a majority of the directors present may
adjourn any meeting to another time and place. If a meeting is adjourned for
more than twenty-four (24) hours, notice of any adjournment to another time or
place shall be given prior to the time of the reconvened meeting to the
directors who were not present at the time of adjournment.
Section 8. ACTION AT MEETING. Every act or decision done or made by a
majority of the directors present at a meeting duly held at which a quorum is
present is the act of the Board of Directors. A meeting at which a quorum is
initially present may continue to transact business
7
notwithstanding the withdrawal of directors, if any action taken is approved
by at least a majority of the required quorum for such meeting.
Section 9. WAIVER OF NOTICE. The transactions of any meeting of the
Board of Directors, however called and noticed or wherever held, are as valid as
though had at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice if a quorum is
present and if, either before or after the meeting, each of the directors not
present signs a written waiver of notice, a consent to holding the meeting, or
an approval of the minutes thereof. All such waivers, consents and approvals
shall be filed with the corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the
meeting.
Section 10. ACTION WITHOUT MEETING. Any action required or permitted to
be taken by the Board of Directors may be taken without a meeting, if all
members of the Board individually or collectively consent in writing to such
action. Such written consent or consents shall be filed with the minutes of the
proceedings of the Board. Such action by written consent shall have the same
force and effect as a unanimous vote of such directors.
Section 11. REMOVAL. The Board of Directors may declare vacant the
office of a director who has been declared of unsound mind by an order of court
or who has been convicted of a felony. Subject to Article IV, Division B,
Section 7(b) of the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation, the entire Board
of Directors or any individual director may be removed from office without cause
by a vote of stockholders holding a majority of the outstanding shares entitled
to vote at an election of directors; provided, however, that unless the entire
Board is removed, no individual director may be removed when the votes cast
against removal, or not consenting in writing to such removal, would be
sufficient to elect such director if voted cumulatively at an election at which
the same total number of votes cast were cast (or, if such
8
action is taken by written consent, all shares entitled to vote were voted)
and the entire number of directors authorized at the time of the director's
most recent election were then being elected.
Subject to Article IV, Division B, Section 7(b) of the Corporation's
Certificate of Incorporation, in the event an office of a director is so
declared vacant or in case the Board or any one or more directors be so removed,
new directors may be elected at the same meeting.
Section 12. RESIGNATIONS. Any director may resign effective upon giving
written notice to the Chairman of the Board, the President, the Secretary or the
Board of Directors of the Corporation, unless the notice specifies a later time
for the effectiveness of such resignation. If the resignation is effective at a
future time, a successor may be elected to take office when the resignation
becomes effective.
Section 13. VACANCIES. Except for a vacancy created by the removal of a
director, subject to Article IV, Division B, Section 7(b) of the Corporation's
Certificate of Incorporation, all vacancies in the Board of Directors, whether
caused by resignation, death or otherwise, may be filled by a majority of the
remaining directors, though less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director,
and each director so elected shall hold office until his successor is elected at
an annual, regular or special meeting of the stockholders. Vacancies created by
the removal of a director may be filled only by approval of the stockholders.
Subject to Article IV, Division B, Section 7(b) of the Corporation's Certificate
of Incorporation, the stockholders may elect a director at any time to fill any
vacancy not filled by the directors. Any such election by written consent
requires the consent of all of the outstanding shares entitled to vote.
Section 14. COMPENSATION. No stated salary shall be paid directors, as
such, for their services, but, by resolution of the Board of Directors, a fixed
sum and expenses of attendance, if any, may be allowed for attendance at each
regular or special meeting of such Board; provided
9
that nothing herein contained shall be construed to preclude any director
from serving the Corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation
therefor. Members of special or standing committees may be allowed like
compensation for attending committee meetings.
Section 15. COMMITTEES. The Board of Directors may, by resolution
adopted by a majority of the authorized number of directors, designate one or
more committees, each consisting of two (2) or more directors, to serve at the
pleasure of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may designate one or
more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent
member at any meeting of the committee. The appointment of members or alternate
members of a committee requires the vote of a majority of the authorized number
of directors. Any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution of
the Board of Directors, shall have all the authority of the Board of Directors
in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation, except with
respect to (i) the approval of any action requiring stockholders' approval or
approval of the outstanding shares, (ii) the filling of vacancies on the Board
or any committee, (iii) the fixing of compensation of directors for serving on
the Board or a committee, (iv) the adoption, amendment or repeal of bylaws, (v)
the amendment or repeal of any resolution of the Board which by its express
terms is not so amendable or repealable, (vi) a distribution to stockholders,
except at a rate or in a periodic amount or within a price range determined by
the Board and (vii) the appointment of other committees of the Board or the
members thereof.

event for the purposes of which it is fixed. When a record date is so fixed,
only stockholders of record at the close of business on that date are
entitled to notice of and to vote at the meeting or to receive the dividend,
distribution, or allotment of rights, or to exercise the rights, as the case
may be, notwithstanding any transfer of any shares on the books of the
Corporation after the record date.
The Board of Directors may close the books of the Corporation against
transfers of shares during the whole or any part of a period of not more than
sixty (60) days prior to the date of a stockholders' meeting, the date when the
right to any dividend, distribution, or allotment of rights vests, or the
effective date of any change, conversion or exchange of shares.
Section 2. CERTIFICATES. Certificates of stock shall be issued in
numerical order and each stockholder shall be entitled to a certificate signed
in the name of the Corporation by the Chairman of the Board or the President or

rights and powers of an owner, except as expressly provided otherwise by the
laws of the State of Delaware.

ARTICLE VI. - INDEMNIFICATION
Section 1. DELAWARE. The Corporation shall, to the fullest extent
authorized under the laws of the State of Delaware, as those laws may be amended
and supplemented from time to time, indemnify any director made, or threatened
to be made, a party to an action or proceeding, whether criminal, civil,
administrative or investigative, by reason of being a director of the
Corporation or a predecessor corporation or, at the Corporation's request, a
director or officer of another corporation, provided, however, that the
Corporation shall indemnify any such agent in connection with a proceeding
initiated by such agent only if such proceeding was authorized by the Board of
Directors of the Corporation. The indemnification provided for in this Section 1
shall: (i) not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those
indemnified may be entitled
15
under the Corporation's certificate of incorporation, any bylaw, agreement or
vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to
action in their official capacities and as to action in another capacity
while holding such office, (ii) continue as to a person who has ceased to be
a director and (iii) inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and
administrators of such a person. The Corporation's obligation to provide
indemnification under this Section 1 shall be offset to the extent of any
other source of indemnification or any otherwise applicable insurance
coverage under a policy maintained by the Corporation or any other person.
Expenses incurred by a director of the Corporation in
defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact
that such director is or was a director of the Corporation (or was serving at
the Corporation's request as a director or officer of another corporation) shall
be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action,
suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such
director to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such
director is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized by
relevant sections of the General Corporation Law of Delaware. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Corporation shall not be required to advance such expenses to
an agent who is a party to an action, suit or proceeding brought by the
Corporation and approved by a majority of the Board of Directors of the
Corporation which alleges willful misappropriation of corporate assets by such
agent, disclosure of confidential information in violation of such agent's
fiduciary or contractual obligations to the Corporation or any other willful and
deliberate breach in bad faith of such agent's duty to the Corporation or its
stockholders.
The foregoing provisions of this Section 1 shall be deemed to
be a contract between the Corporation and each director who serves in such
capacity at any time while this
16
bylaw is in effect, and any repeal or modification thereof shall not affect
any rights or obligations then existing with respect to any state of facts
then or theretofore existing or any action, suit or proceeding theretofore or
thereafter brought based in whole or in part upon any such state of facts.
The Board of Directors in its discretion shall have power on
behalf of the Corporation to indemnify any person, other than a director, made a
party to any action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that such person,
such person's testator or intestate, is or was an officer or employee of the
Corporation.
To assure indemnification under this Section 1 of all
directors, officers and employees who are determined by the Corporation or
otherwise to be or to have been "fiduciaries" of any employee benefit plan of
the Corporation which may exist from time to time, Section 145 of the General
Corporation Law of Delaware shall, for the purposes of this Section 1, be
interpreted as follows: an "other enterprise" shall be deemed to include such an
employee benefit plan, including without limitation, any plan of the Corporation
which is governed by the Act of Congress entitled "Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974," as amended from time to time; the Corporation shall be
deemed to have requested a person to serve an employee benefit plan where the
performance by such person of his or her duties to the Corporation also imposes
duties on, or otherwise involves services by, such person to the plan or
participants or beneficiaries of the plan; excise taxes assessed on a person
with respect to an employee benefit plan pursuant to such Act of Congress shall
be deemed "fines."
Section 2. CALIFORNIA. The Corporation shall indemnify its directors to
the fullest extent not prohibited by the California General Corporation Law;
provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be required to indemnify any
director in connection with any proceeding
17
(or part thereof) initiated by such person or any proceeding by such person
against the Corporation or its directors, officers, employees or other agents
unless (i) such indemnification is expressly required to be made by law, (ii)
the proceeding was authorized by the board of directors of the Corporation or
(iii) such indemnification is provided by the Corporation, in its sole
discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the Corporation under the
California General Corporation Law.
The Corporation shall have power to indemnify its officers, employees
and other agents as set forth in the California General Corporation Law.
Promptly after receipt of a request for indemnification hereunder (and
in any event within ninety (90) days thereof) a reasonable, good faith
determination as to whether indemnification of the director is proper under the
circumstances because each director has met the applicable standard of care
shall be made by: (i) a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who
are not parties to such proceeding; (ii) if such quorum is not obtainable, by
independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or (iii) approval or
ratification by the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of the
Corporation represented and voting at a duly held meeting at which a quorum is
present (which shares voting affirmatively also constitute at least a majority
of the required quorum) or by written consent of a majority of the outstanding
shares entitled to vote; where in each case the shares owned by the person to be
indemnified shall not be considered entitled to vote thereon.
For purposes of any determination under this bylaw, a director shall be
deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed
to be in the best interests of the Corporation and its stockholders, and, with
respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had no reasonable cause to
believe that his or her conduct was unlawful, if his or her action is
18
based on information, opinions, reports and statements, including financial
statements and other financial data, in each case prepared or presented by:
(i) one or more officers or employees of the Corporation whom the director
believed to be reliable and competent in the matters presented; (ii) counsel,
independent accountants or other persons as to matters which the director
believed to be within such person's professional competence; and (iii) a
committee of the Board upon which such director does not serve, as to matters
within such committee's designated authority, which committee the director
believes to merit confidence; so long as, in each case, the director acts
without knowledge that would cause such reliance to be unwarranted.
The termination of any 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 he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the
Corporation and its stockholders or that he or she had reasonable cause to
believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.
The provisions of the preceding two paragraphs 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 by the
California General Corporation Law.
The Corporation shall advance, prior to the final disposition of any
proceeding, promptly following request therefor, all expenses incurred by any
director in connection with such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or
on behalf of such person to repay said amounts if it shall be determined
ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under this bylaw
or otherwise.
Without the necessity of entering into an express contract, all rights
to indemnification and advances to directors under this bylaw shall be deemed to
be contractual rights and be
19
effective to the same extent and as if provided for in a contract between the
Corporation and the director. Any right to indemnification or advances
granted by this bylaw to a director shall be enforceable by or on behalf of
the person holding such right in the forum in which the proceeding is or was
pending or, if such forum is not available or a determination is made that
such forum is not convenient, in any court of competent jurisdiction if (i)
the claim for indemnification or advances is denied, in whole or in part, or
(ii) no disposition of such claim is made within ninety (90) days of request
therefor. The claimant in such enforcement action, if successful in whole or
in part, shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting his or
her claim. The Corporation shall be entitled to raise as a defense to any
such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses
incurred in connection with any proceeding in advance of its final
disposition when the required undertaking has been tendered to the
Corporation) that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct that make
it permissible under the California General Corporation Law for the
Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed. Neither the
failure of the Corporation (including its board of directors, independent
legal counsel or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the
commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in
the circumstances because the claimant has met the applicable standard of
conduct set forth in the California General Corporation Law, nor an actual
determination by the Corporation (including its board of directors,
independent legal counsel or its stockholders) that the claimant has not met
such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or
create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of
conduct.
To the fullest extent permitted by the Corporation's Certificate of
Incorporation and the California General Corporation Law, the rights conferred
on any person by this bylaw shall not
20
be exclusive of any other right which such person may have or hereafter
acquire under any statute, provision of the Certificate of Incorporation,
bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or
otherwise, both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action
in another capacity while holding office. 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 permitted by the California General
Corporation Law and the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation.
The rights conferred on any person by this bylaw shall continue as to a
person who has ceased to be a director and shall inure to the benefit of the
heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.
The Corporation, upon approval by the board of directors, may purchase
insurance on behalf of any person required or permitted to be indemnified
pursuant to this bylaw. The Corporation's obligation to provide indemnification
under this Section 2 shall be offset to the extent of any other source of
indemnification or any otherwise applicable insurance coverage under a policy
maintained by the Corporation or any other person.
Any repeal or modification of this bylaw shall only be prospective and
shall not affect the rights under this bylaw in effect at the time of the
alleged occurrence of any action or omission to act that is the cause of any
proceeding against any agent of the Corporation.
The Corporation shall indemnify the directors and officers of the
Corporation who serve at the request of the Corporation as trustees, investment
managers or other fiduciaries of employee benefit plans to the fullest extent
permitted by the California General Corporation Law.
21
If this bylaw or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground
by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless
indemnify each director to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable
portion of this bylaw that shall not have been invalidated, or by any other
applicable law.
For the purposes of this bylaw, the following definitions shall apply:
(i) The term "proceeding" shall be broadly construed and shall
include, without limitation, the investigation, preparation, prosecution,
defense, settlement and appeal of any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative or
investigative.
(ii) The term "expenses" shall be broadly construed and shall
include, without limitation, court costs, attorneys' fees, witness fees, fines,
amounts paid in settlement or judgment and any other costs and expenses of any
nature or kind incurred in connection with any proceeding, including expenses of
establishing a right to indemnification under this bylaw or any applicable law.
(iii) The term 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, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person
who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent
corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation
as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under
the provisions of this bylaw with respect to the resulting or surviving
corporation
22
as he or she would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its
separate existence had continued.
(iv) References to a "director," "officer," "employee," or
"agent" of the Corporation shall include, without limitation, situations where
such person is serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer,
employee, trustee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise.
Section 3. INCONSISTENCY. In the event of any inconsistency between
Section 1 and Section 2 of this Article VI, the controlling Section as to any
particular issue with regard to any particular matter, shall be the one which
authorizes for the benefit of the agent or the other person in question the
provision of the fullest, promptest, most certain or otherwise most favorable
indemnification and/or advancement.
ARTICLE VII. - RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL
Section 1. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. No stockholder shall sell, assign,
pledge, or in any manner transfer any of the shares of common stock of the
Corporation or any right or interest therein, whether voluntarily or by
operation of law, or by gift or otherwise, except by a transfer which meets the
requirements hereinafter set forth in this bylaw:
(a) If the stockholder desires to sell or otherwise transfer
any of his shares of common stock, then the stockholder shall first give written
notice thereof to the Corporation. The notice shall name the proposed transferee
and state the number of shares to be transferred, the proposed consideration,
and all other terms and conditions of the proposed transfer.
(b) For thirty (30) days following receipt of such notice, the
Corporation shall have the option to purchase all or any portion of the shares
specified in the notice at the price and upon the terms set forth in such
notice. In the event of a gift, property settlement or other
23
transfer in which the proposed transferee is not paying the full price for
the shares, and that is not otherwise exempted from the provisions of this
bylaw, the price shall be deemed to be the fair market value of the common
stock at such time as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors. In
the event the Corporation elects to purchase all or any portion of the
shares, it shall give written notice to the transferring stockholder of its
election and settlement for said shares shall be made as provided below in
paragraph (d).
(c) The Corporation may assign its rights hereunder.
(d) In the event the Corporation and/or its assignee(s) elect
to acquire any of the shares of the transferring stockholder as specified in
said transferring stockholder's notice, the Secretary of the Corporation shall
so notify the transferring stockholder and settlement thereof shall be made in
cash within thirty (30) days after the Secretary of the Corporation receives
said transferring stockholder's notice; provided that if the terms of payment
set forth in said transferring stockholder's notice were other than cash against
delivery, the Corporation and/or its assignee(s) shall pay for said shares on
the same terms and conditions set forth in said transferring stockholder's
notice.
(e) In the event the Corporation and/or its assignees(s) do
not elect to acquire all of the shares specified in the transferring
stockholder's notice, said transferring stockholder may, within the sixty-day
period following the expiration of the option rights granted to the Corporation
and/or its assignee(s) herein, transfer the shares specified in said
transferring stockholder's notice which were not acquired by the Corporation
and/or its assignee(s) as specified in said transferring stockholder's notice.
All shares so sold by said transferring stockholder shall continue to be subject
to the provisions of this bylaw in the same manner as before said transfer.
24
(f) Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding,
the following transactions shall be exempt from the provisions of this bylaw:
A stockholder's transfer of any or all shares of
common stock held either during such stockholder's lifetime or on death by will
or intestacy to such stockholder's immediate family or to any custodian or
trustee for the account of such stockholder or such stockholder's immediate
family. "Immediate family" as used herein shall mean spouse, lineal descendant,
father, mother, brother or sister of the stockholder making such transfer.
In any such case, the transferee, assignee, or other
recipient shall receive and hold such common stock subject to the provisions of
this bylaw, and there shall be no further transfer of such stock except in
accord with this bylaw.
(g) The provisions of this bylaw may be waived with respect to
any transfer either by the Corporation, upon duly authorized action of its Board
of Directors, or by the stockholders, upon the express written consent of the
owners of a majority of the voting power of the Corporation (excluding the votes
represented by those shares to be transferred by the transferring stockholder).
This bylaw may be amended or repealed either by a duly authorized action of the
Board of Directors or by the stockholders, upon the express written consent of
the owners of a majority of the voting power of the Corporation.
(h) Any sale or transfer, or purported sale or transfer, of
securities of the Corporation shall be null and void unless the terms,
conditions and provisions of this bylaw are strictly observed and followed.
(i) The foregoing right of first refusal shall terminate on
either of the following dates, whichever shall first occur:
(i) On May 13, 2004; or
25
(ii) Upon the date securities of the Corporation
are first offered to the public pursuant to a registration statement filed with,
and declared effective by, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
(j) The certificates representing shares of common stock of
the Corporation shall bear on their face the following legend so long as the
foregoing right of first refusal remains in effect:
"The shares represented by this certificate are
subject to a right of first refusal option in favor of the Corporation
and/or its assignee(s), as provided in the bylaws of the Corporation."

other equivalents of a renewal, reissues and extension thereof.
2.5 "Licensed Product" means any product, service or process that employs

a joint venture, which separate entity purchases, sells or acquires
Licensed Products from Digirad at prices substantially different from
those at which Digirad would have charged other purchasers that deal at
arms length with Digirad. If such separate entity is established, then
Berkeley Lab shall collect from Digirad royalties on the Selling Price
of Licensed Products by the entity and shall not collect royalties on
the Selling Price of Licensed Products by Digirad.
3. LICENSE GRANT
3.1 Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, Berkeley Lab
grants to Digirad a nontransferable (subject to Section 18.1), limited
(by the terms of Sections 3.2 and 3.7) worldwide exclusive,

lease the Licensed Products.
3.2 Any license under this Agreement is subject to the following: (a) DOE's
royalty-free license for federal government practice only, and (b)
DOE's option to grant licenses either if reasonable steps to
commercialize the Invention are not carried out or in order to meet
federal regulations. Digirad shall use best efforts to commercialize
Licensed Patents.
3.3 Berkeley Lab also grants to Digirad the right to issue royalty-bearing
sublicenses only in the Field of Use to make, use, practice and sell
Licensed Products, so long as Digirad has current exclusive rights in
the Field of Use.

*** of the Selling Price of each Licensed Product Digirad sells.
5.2 Under this Agreement a Licensed Product is considered to be sold when
invoiced, or if not invoiced, when delivered to a third party. But when
the last patent covering a Licensed Product expires or when the license
terminates, any shipment made on or before the day of that expiration

sold (and therefore subject to royalty) unless returned to Digirad
within *** . Berkeley Lab shall credit royalties that Digirad pays on a

5.8 If Digirad cannot promptly remit any royalties for sales in any country
where a Licensed Product is sold because of legal restrictions, Digirad
may deposit in United States funds royalties due Berkeley Lab to
Berkeley Lab's account in a bank or other depository in that country.
If Digirad is not permitted to deposit those payments in U.S. funds
under the laws of that country, Digirad may deposit those payments in
the local currency to Berkeley Lab's account in a bank or other
depository in that country.
5.9 If a court of competent jurisdiction and last resort holds invalid any
patent or any of the patent claims within Licensed Patent in a final
decision from which no appeal has or can be taken, Digirad's obligation
to pay royalties based on that patent or claim will cease as of the
date of that final decision. Digirad, however, shall pay any royalties
that accrued before that decision or that are based on another patent
or claim not involved in that decision.

5.10 Digirad has no duty to pay Berkeley Lab royalties under this Agreement
on a Licensed Product Digirad sells to the United States Government
including any United States Government agency. Digirad shall reduce the
amount charged for a Licensed Product sold to the United States
Government by an amount equal to the royalty otherwise due Berkeley
Lab. Such royalty otherwise due Berkeley Lab will count towards the
minimum annual royalty payments per Section 5.4.
6. PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS
6.1 Digirad shall proceed with the development, manufacture and sale of
Licensed Products and shall use diligent commercial efforts to endeavor
to market them within a reasonable time after the Effective Date in
quantities sufficient to meet the market demand.
6.2 Digirad shall use diligent commercial efforts to obtain all necessary
governmental approvals for the manufacture, use and sale of Licensed
Products.
6.3 Digirad is entitled to exercise prudent and reasonable business
judgment in meeting its performance requirements under this Agreement.
6.4 If Digirad is unable to perform any of the following, then Berkeley Lab
may either terminate this Agreement or reduce this limited exclusive
license to a nonexclusive license:
6.4.1 ***
*** or
6.4.2 ***
***
***
It is the understanding of the parties hereto that any termination of
the Agreement or reduction of this license to a nonexclusive license as
a result of Digirad's failure to meet the specifications of Section
6.4, shall be subject to the *** cure period set forth in Section 10.1
below.
6.5 If Berkeley Lab grants a non-exclusive license to any other party upon
royalty rates more favorable than those of this Agreement after
reducing this license to a non-exclusive license, then ***
***
***
***
6.6 Digirad and Berkeley Lab by mutual written consent may amend or extend
the requirements of Sections 6.4.1-6.4.2 at the written request of
Digirad in response to legitimate business reasons.

8.2 Berkeley Lab shall bear the fees and expenses of Berkeley Lab's
representatives performing the examination of the books and records.
But if the representatives discover an error resulting in a deficiency
in royalties of more than *** of the total royalties due for any year,
then Digirad shall bear the fees and expenses of these representatives
and the difference between the earned royalties and the reported
royalties (which shall be subject to the provisions of Article 20 (LATE
PAYMENTS)).

Agreement, then Berkeley Lab may give written notice of such default

Exhibit A to License Agreement
PROPRIETARY INFORMATION EXCHANGE AGREEMENT
This AGREEMENT made and entered into as of this 23rd day of April 1,
1999 by and between DIGIRAD, a Delaware corporation, whose address is 9350 Trade
Place, San Diego, California 92126-6334 and The Regents of the University of
California as Managers of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, whose
address is 1 Cyclotron Road, Berkeley, CA 94720.
WHEREAS, the parties hereto are undertaking negotiations towards the
development of a license agreement between them, and
WHEREAS, in furtherance of such license, each undersigned party (the
"Receiving Party") understands that the other party (the "Disclosing Party") has
disclosed or may disclose information relating to the Disclosing Party's
business and/or intellectual property (including, without limitation, chemical
formulas, computer programs, software, technical drawings, names and expertise
of employees and consultants, know-how, formulas processes, ideas, inventions
(whether patentable or not), schematics and other technical business, financial,

***
***
sub-assemblies and related assemblies for use in medical imaging systems and
other applications), information which to the extent previously, presently, or
subsequently disclosed to the Receiving Party is hereinafter referred to as
"Proprietary Information" of the Disclosing Party.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the parties' discussions and any
access the Receiving Party may have to Proprietary Information of the Disclosing
Party, the parties agree that any information received by one party from the
other shall be governed by the following terms and conditions:
Definition:
"Proprietary Information" shall not include information which:
(a) was rightfully in possession of or known to the Receiving
Party prior to receiving it from the Disclosing Party; or
(b) is or becomes part of the public knowledge or literature by
acts other than those of the Receiving Party and without fault of the receiving
Party; or
(c) was rightfully disclosed to the Receiving Party by a third
party provided the Receiving Party complies with restrictions imposed by the
third party; or
(d) is transmitted after the expiration of this Agreement; or
*** Portions of this page have been omitted pursuant to a request for
Confidential Treatment and filed separately with the Commission.
1 of 4
(e) is disclosed by the Receiving Party under a valid order
created by a court or government agency, provided that the Receiving Party
provides prior written notice to the Disclosing Party of such obligation and the
opportunity to oppose such disclosure.
(f) the Receiving Party develops independently, subsequent to
receipt of Proprietary Information and for which Receiving Party can demonstrate
by written records that independent development occurred without knowledge or
use of Proprietary Information.
HANDLING OF PROPRIETARY INFORMATION:
The Receiving Party agrees to (i) hold the Disclosing Party's
Proprietary Information in strict confidence as a fiduciary and to take
reasonable precautions to protect such Proprietary Information and (ii) handle
the Proprietary Information in the same manner that it handles its own
proprietary information of like importance, but with at least reasonable degree
of care, for a period of five (5) years after the date of disclosure.
LIMITATION ON DISCLOSURE:
The Receiving Party shall not disclose, in whole or in part, such
Proprietary Information to any third party without the prior written consent of
the Disclosing Party for the period that such information is to be handled as
proprietary. The Receiving Party may disclose Proprietary Information only to
those of its employees who would require knowledge of such Proprietary
Information for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement and who is similarly
bound in writing.
LIMITATION OF USE:
The Receiving Party shall make no use, in whole or in part, of any such
Proprietary Information other than in furtherance of the purpose of this
Agreement without the prior written consent of the Disclosing Party.
If the purpose of the information exchange is the preparation of a
proposal to the United States Government, Proprietary Information of either
party may be incorporated into the proposal to the United States Government,
provided that the proposal document bears the restrictive legend contained in
Federal Acquisition Regulation 52.215-12 or a substantially similar successor
provision.
TERM:
This Agreement shall expire one (1) year from the date recited in the
first paragraph of this Agreement. With the exception of information disclosed
in accordance with the provisions of the License Agreement for Detector between
Digirad Corporation and the Regents of the University of California through the
Ernest Orlando Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, immediately upon a request by the
Disclosing Party at any time (which will be effective if actually received or
three days after mailed first class postage prepaid to the Receiving Party's
address herein), the Receiving Party will turn over to the Disclosing Party all
Proprietary Information of the Disclosing Party and all documents or media
containing any such Proprietary Information and any and all copies or extracts
thereof. The Receiving Party understands that
2 of 4
nothing herein (i) requires the disclosure of any Proprietary Information of the
Disclosing Party, which shall be disclosed if at all solely at the option of the
Disclosing Party (in particular, but without limitation, any disclosure is
subject to compliance with expert control laws and regulations), or (ii)
requires the Disclosing Party to proceed with any proposed transaction or
relationship in connection with which Proprietary Information may be disclosed.
The party's obligations with respect to Proprietary Information disclosed to it
prior to expiration/termination shall survive expiration/termination.
RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES:
This Agreement is intended to provide only for the handling and
protection of Proprietary Information exchanged or disclosed hereunder, and
shall not be construed as a Teaming, Joint Venture, Partnership, or other
similar arrangement. Specifically, this Agreement shall not be construed in any
manner to be an obligation to enter into a contract, nor shall it result in any
claim whatsoever for reimbursement of costs.
NO LICENSE:
Neither the execution of this agreement nor the furnishing of any
Proprietary Information hereunder shall be construed as granting either
expressly, by implication, estoppel or otherwise, any license other than as
expressly set forth herein under any invention, patent, copyright, trade secret,
mask work right, or any other intellectual property right, now or hereafter
owned or controlled by the party furnishing same.
U.S. GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS:
A party receiving Proprietary Information shall comply with all
relevant United States Government regulations, including the International
Traffic in Arms Regulations and the Export Administration Act.
MISCELLANEOUS:
Each party shall perform its respective obligations hereunder without
charge to the other.
Except to the extent permitted by the License Agreement for Detector
between Digirad Corporation and the Regents of the University of California
through the Ernest Orlando Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, neither party will
refer to this Agreement or use the other party's name in any form of publicity
or advertising directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the
party whose name is proposed for use.
Except as to a sale of the business to which this Agreement relates or
transfer of the management of the Ernest Orlando Lawrence Berkley Laboratory,
the rights and obligations of each party under this Agreement may not be
assigned or transferred to any person, firm or corporation, without the express
prior written consent of the other party, which consent will not be unreasonably
withheld.
Neither party makes any representations regarding the accuracy,
completeness, or freedom from defects of the information disclosed, or with
respect to infringement of the rights of others.
3 of 4
The Receiving Party acknowledges and agrees that due to the unique
nature of the Disclosing Party's Proprietary Information, there may be no
adequate remedy at law for any breach of its obligations hereunder, that any
such breach may allow the Receiving Party or third parties to unfairly compete
with the Disclosing Party resulting in irreparable harm to the Disclosing Party,
and therefore, that upon any such breach or any threat thereof, the Disclosing
Party may be entitled to appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever
remedies it might have at law. The Receiving Party will notify the Disclosing
Party in writing immediately upon the occurrence of any such unauthorized
release or other breach of which it is aware. In the event that any of the
provisions of this Agreement shall be held by a court or other tribunal of
competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provisions
shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this
Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect.
ENTIRE AGREEMENT:
This Agreement represents the entire agreement of the parties
pertaining to the subject matter of the Agreement, and supersedes any and all
prior oral discussions and/or written correspondence or agreements between the
parties with respect thereto.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be
executed in duplicate original copies by their respective duly authorized
representatives.

party shall take reasonable steps to advise their employees, subcontractors and
subdistributors of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and
of the prohibitions on copying or revealing such Confidential Information
contained herein. The parties each agree to require that the other party's
Confidential Information be kept in a reasonably secure location.

ARTICLE II
THE CREDIT
2.01. Credit Facility.
(a) THE CREDIT AMOUNT. Subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and relying upon the representations and warranties
herein set forth as and when made or deemed to be made, Lender agrees to lend to
Borrower a maximum of two Loans (respectively, the "First Loan" and the "Second
Loan") in an aggregate amount not to exceed the
-7-
Credit Amount. The First Loan shall be in the amount of Two Million Dollars
($2,000,000) and the Second Loan shall be in the amount of One Million Dollars
($1,000,000). The Loans may be prepaid only as set forth in SECTION 2.01(d).
(b) INTEREST RATES. Borrower shall pay interest on the
unpaid principal amount of each Loan from the date of such Loan until such Loan
is paid in full, at a per annum rate of interest equal to the Loan Rate for such
Loan determined in accordance with the definition of Loan Rate. The Loan Rate
applicable to a Loan shall not be subject to change in the absence of manifest
error. All computations of interest on a Loan shall be based on a year of twelve
30-day months. If Borrower pays interest on a Loan which is determined to be in
excess of the then legal maximum rate, then that portion of each interest
payment representing an amount in excess of the then legal maximum rate shall be
deemed a payment of principal and applied against the principal of such Loan.
(c) PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST. If a Funding Date
is not the first day of the month, Borrower shall make an interest only payment
on the first Payment Date specified in Lender's Note and thirty-six (36) equal
monthly payments of principal plus accrued interest on the outstanding principal
amount of such Loan commencing on the first Payment Date as set forth in
Lender's Note.
(d) OPTIONAL PREPAYMENT WITH PREMIUM. Borrower may not
prepay any Loan within twelve (12) months of its first Payment Date; thereafter,
upon ten (10) Business Days' prior written notice to Lender, Borrower may, at
its option, at any time, prepay all, and not less than all, of a Loan in full at
a prepayment price equal to the principal amount of the Loan, plus interest
accrued on the Loan through and including the date of such prepayment, plus a
premium on the Loan equal to the Applicable Premium. If an Event of Default
occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default specified in Section
9.01 h, i, j, k or 1, in which case no Applicable Premium is due and payable),
and Lender exercises its right under Section 9.02 to accelerate the Loans or the
Loans are automatically accelerated, Borrower expressly agrees that the amount
then due and payable shall include the Applicable Premium as of the date of such
acceleration.
2.02. USE OF PROCEEDS; THE LOAN AND THE NOTES; DISBURSEMENT.
(a) USE OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds of the Loans shall be
used solely for: (1) working capital, or (2) general corporate purposes of
Borrower, or (3) purchase of, or reimbursement to Borrower of the acquisition
costs of Equipment ("EQUIPMENT LOANS"), or (4) any combination of the foregoing.
(b) THE LOANS AND THE NOTES. The obligation of Borrower
to repay the unpaid principal amount of and interest on each Loan shall be
evidenced by a Note issued to Lender and Lender is authorized to endorse on a
grid annexed to its Note appropriate notations regarding payments made on the
Note; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the failure to make, or an error in making, any
such notation shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower
hereunder or thereunder.
-8-
(c) DISBURSEMENT. Lender shall disburse its Loans by wire
transfer to Borrower unless otherwise directed in writing by Borrower.
(d) TERMINATION OF COMMITMENT TO LEND. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the Operative Documents, Lender's obligations to
advance the Loans hereunder shall terminate on the earliest of (i) the
occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder and (ii) the respective Commitment
Termination Dates.
2.03. OTHER PAYMENT TERMS.
(a) PLACE AND MANNER. Borrower shall make all payments
due to Lender in lawful money of the United States, in immediately available
funds, at the address for payments and in the manner specified in SECTION
10.05(B).
(b) DATE. Whenever any payment due hereunder shall fall
due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next
succeeding Business Day.
(c) DEFAULT RATE. If either (i) any amounts required to
be paid by Borrower under this Agreement or the other Operative Documents
(including principal or interest payable on the Loan, any fees or other amounts)
remain unpaid after such amounts are due, or (ii) an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall pay interest on the outstanding
principal balance hereunder from the date due or from the date of the Event of
Default, as applicable, until such past due amounts are paid in full or until
all Events of Defaults are cured, as applicable, at a per annum rate equal to
the Default Rate, such rate to change from time to time as the Prime Rate shall
change. All computations of such interest at the Default Rate shall be based on
a year of 360 days and twelve 30-day months.
(d) FACILITY FEE; COMMITMENT FEE. Upon the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, Borrower agrees to pay to Lender a facility fee
("FACILITY FEE") of $25,000 as follows: (i) Borrower has paid a commitment fee
in the aggregate amount of $20,000 (the "COMMITMENT FEE"); Twenty Thousand
Dollars ($20,000) of the Commitment Fee shall be applied towards the Facility
Fee, and (ii) Borrower shall pay to Lender Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000)
concurrently with Borrower's execution and delivery of this Agreement. Borrower
agrees to pay to Lender within thirty (30) days of invoice Lender's expenses in
connection with due diligence or the negotiation, documentation (including
without limitation, filing fees related thereto) and funding of the Loans, up to
a maximum of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000); provided that if the First Loan is
funded after invoice but before payment, Lender may deduct the invoiced amount
from the First Loan proceeds.

embargo, act of God or other casualty that could reasonably be expected to have
a material adverse effect on the financial condition, business or operations of
Borrower. There are no disputes presently subject to grievance procedure,
arbitration or litigation under any of the collective bargaining agreements,
employment contracts or employee welfare or incentive plans to which Borrower is
a party, and there are no strikes, lockouts, work stoppages or slowdowns, or, to
the acknowledge of Borrower, jurisdictional disputes or organizing activity
-11-
occurring or threatened which could reasonably be expected to have a material
adverse effect on the financial condition, business or operations of Borrower.
(k) NO MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT. No event has occurred and
no condition exists which could reasonably be expected to have a material
adverse effect on the financial condition, business or operations of Borrower
since December 31, 1998, the date of Borrower's last audited financial
statements.
(1) ACCURACY OF INFORMATION FURNISHED. None of the
Operative Documents and none of the other certificates, statements or
information furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower in connection with
the Operative Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby contains or
will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omits or will omit to
state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Lender recognizes that
all financial projections furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower in
connection with the Operative Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby
are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or
periods covered by such projections may differ from the projected or forecasted
results.
(m) CERTAIN AGREEMENTS OF OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND
CONSULTANTS.
(i) To the knowledge of Borrower, no officer,
employee or consultant of Borrower is, or is now expected to be, in violation of
any term of any employment contract, proprietary information agreement,
nondisclosure agreement, noncompetition agreement, or any other material
contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant relating to the right of any
such officer, employee or consultant to be employed by Borrower because of the
nature of the business conducted or to be conducted by Borrower or relating to
the use of trade secrets or proprietary information of others, and to Borrower's
knowledge, the continued employment of Borrower's officers, employees and
consultants does not subject Borrower to any material liability for any claim or
claims arising out of or in connection with any such contract, agreement, or
covenant.
(ii) To the knowledge of Borrower, no officers of
Borrower, and no employee or consultant of Borrower whose termination, either
individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a
material adverse effect on the financial condition, business or operations of
Borrower, has any present intention of terminating his or her employment or
consulting relationship with Borrower.

accumulations to any and all of such equipment, fixtures or
personal property (collectively, the "EQUIPMENT"), together
with all proceeds thereof, including, without limitation,
insurance, condemnation, requisition or similar payments, and
all proceeds from sales, renewals, releases or other
dispositions thereof, which is financed with or is designated
as collateral for the Obligations on and after the date of
this Agreement by designating such equipment, fixtures and
personal property on a UCC financing statement listing
Borrower as "debtor" and Lender as "secured party."
-14-
5.02. DURATION OF SECURITY INTEREST. Lender's security interest in
the Collateral shall continue until the payment in full and the satisfaction of
all Obligations, whereupon such security interest shall terminate. Lender, upon
payment in full and the satisfaction of the Obligations, shall execute such
further documents and take such further actions as may be necessary to effect
the release and/or termination contemplated by this SECTION 5.02, including duly
executing and delivering termination statements for filing in all relevant
jurisdictions.
5.03. POSSESSION AND LOCATION OF COLLATERAL. The Collateral is and
shall remain in the possession of Borrower at Borrower's address stated on the
cover page of this Agreement. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, Borrower shall remain in full possession, enjoyment and control of
the Collateral (except only as may be otherwise required by Lender for
perfection of its security interest therein) and to manage, operate and use the
same and each part thereof with the rights and franchises appertaining thereto;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the possession, enjoyment, control and use of the
Collateral shall at all times be subject to the observance and performance of
the terms of this Agreement.
5.04. EQUIPMENT COLLATERAL. On or prior to its execution and
delivery of this Agreement, Borrower shall provide Lender with a listing, in
detail to Lender's satisfaction, of all of Borrower's equipment, fixtures and
personal property (collectively, an "Equipment List"), which, at Lender's
option, shall be attached as an exhibit to a UCC financing statement filed by
Lender naming Borrower as "debtor" and Lender as "secured party." Within thirty
days after the end of every quarter after the date hereof, Borrower shall
provide Lender with an Equipment List of equipment, fixtures and personal
property acquired by Borrower during such quarter (which may exclude Third Party
Equipment), and such Equipment List shall, at Lender's option, be attached as an
exhibit to a UCC financing statement filed by Lender naming Borrower as "debtor"
and Lender as "secured party." Borrower agrees to execute and deliver to Lender
any and all such financing statements to Lender.
5.05. LIEN SUBORDINATION. Lender agrees that the Liens granted to it
hereunder (except for Liens in Equipment Collateral) shall be subordinate to the
Liens granted in connection with Indebtedness permitted by clause (e) of the
definition of Permitted Indebtedness. Lender agrees to enter into a
subordination agreement with the lender of the Indebtedness permitted by clause
(e) of the definition of Permitted Indebtedness substantially in the form of
EXHIBIT D and to negotiate in good faith any changes thereto as long as they are
acceptable to Lender. Lender agrees that the Liens granted to it hereunder in
Third Party Equipment shall be subordinate to the Liens of future lenders
providing equipment financing and equipment lessors for equipment and other
personal property acquired by Borrower more than eighteen (18) months after the
date hereof ("THIRD PARTY EQUIPMENT"); PROVIDED, that, in the case of equipment
financings and leasing such Liens are confined solely to the equipment so
financed and the proceeds thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Obligations hereunder shall not be subordinate in right of payment to any
obligations to other lenders, equipment lenders or equipment lessors and
Lender's rights and remedies hereunder shall not in any way be subordinate to
the rights and remedies of any such lender or equipment lessors. Lender agrees
to execute and deliver such agreements and documents as may be reasonably
requested by Borrower from time to time which set forth the lien subordination
described in this SECTION 5.05 and are reasonably acceptable to Lender. Lender
shall have no obligation to execute any agreement or document
-15-
which would impose obligations, restrictions or lien priority on Lender which
are less favorable to Lender than those described in this SECTION 5.05.
ARTICLE VI

unpaid, might become a Lien upon any of its properties; PROVIDED that there
shall be no requirement to pay any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim

which presents no risk of seizure, forfeiture, levy or other event which could
jeopardize any Collateral or (ii) for which payment in full is bonded or
reserved in Borrower's financial statements.
(b) INSPECTION RIGHTS. Borrower shall, at any reasonable
time and from time to time, permit Lender or any of its agents or

efficiency thereof shall at all times be maintained and preserved. Borrower
shall not permit any such material item of Collateral to become a fixture to
real estate or an accession to other personal property, without the prior
written consent of Lender. Borrower shall not permit any such material item of
Collateral to be operated or maintained in violation of any applicable law,
statute, rule or regulation. With respect to items of leased equipment (to the

and operate such leased equipment in accordance with the terms of the applicable
lease.

satisfaction. The deductible shall not exceed $25,000. The policy shall name
Lender as loss payee with respect to the Equipment, shall not be invalidated by
any action of or breach of warranty by Borrower of any provision thereof and
waive subrogation against Lender.
-16-
(ii) Commercial general liability insurance
(including contractual liability, products liability and completed operations
coverages) reasonably satisfactory to Lender. The limit of liability shall be at
least $5,000,000 per occurrence. The policy shall be without deductible, except
for products liability coverage which may have a deductible up to $25,000. The
policy(ies) shall name Lender as an additional insured in the full amount of
Borrower's liability coverage limits (or the coverage limits of any successor to
Borrower or such successor's parent which is providing coverage), be primary and
without contribution as respects any insurance carried by Lender, and contain
cross liability and severability of interest clauses.
(iii) Such other insurance against risks of loss
and with terms as shall be reasonably required by Lender.
All policies of insurance shall be placed with financially sound,
commercial insurers reasonably satisfactory to Lender. All policies of insurance
shall provide that Lender shall be given 30 days notice of cancellation of
coverage. This notice provision shall be without qualification. On or prior to
the first Funding Date and prior to each policy renewal, Borrower shall furnish
to Lender certificates of insurance or other evidence satisfactory to Lender
that insurance complying with all of the above requirements is in effect.

for the benefit of Borrower pursuant to any other agreement or commitment
extended by a Lender to Borrower.
(b) If an Event of Default specified under CLAUSE (h) OR

9.03. RIGHTS REGARDING COLLATERAL. Borrower agrees that when any
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall have the rights,
options, duties and remedies of a secured party as permitted by law and, in
addition to and without limiting the foregoing, Lender may exercise any one or
more or all, and in any order, of the remedies herein set forth, including the
following:
(a) Lender, personally or by agents or attorneys, shall
have the right (subject to compliance with any applicable mandatory legal
requirements) to require Borrower to assemble the Collateral and make it
available to Lender at a place to be designated by Lender or to take immediate
possession of the Collateral, or any portion thereof, and for that purpose may
pursue the same wherever it may be found, and may enter any of premises of
Borrower, with or without notice, demand, process of law or legal procedure, to
the extent permitted by applicable law, and search for, take possession of,
remove, keep and store the same, or use and operate or lease the same until
sold. In furtherance of Lender's rights hereunder, Borrower hereby grants to
-21-
Lender an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without royalty or
other payment by Lender) to use, license or sublicense any patent, trademark,
trade name, copyright or other Intellectual Property in which Borrower now or
hereafter has any right, title or interest together with the right of access to
all media in which any of the foregoing may be recorded or stored; provided,
however, that such license shall only be exercisable in connection with the
disposition of Collateral upon Lender's exercise of its remedies hereunder.
(b) Lender may, if at the time such action may be lawful
and always subject to compliance with any mandatory legal requirements, either
with or without taking possession and either before or after taking possession,
without instituting any legal proceedings whatsoever, having first given notice
of such sale by registered or certified mail to Borrower once at least ten (10)
days prior to the date of such sale, and having first given any other notice
which may be required by law, sell and dispose of the Collateral, or any part
thereof, at a private sale or at public auction, to the highest bidder, in one
lot as an entirety or in separate lots, and either for cash or on credit and on
such terms as Lender may determine, and at any place (whether or not it be the
location of the Collateral or any part thereof) designated in the notice
referred to above. To the extent permitted by applicable law, any such sale or
sales may be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place
appointed for such sale or sales, or for any such adjourned sale or sales,
without further published notice, and Borrower, Lender or the holder or holders
of the Notes, or of any interest therein, may bid and become the purchaser at
any such sale.
(c) Lender may proceed to protect and enforce this
Agreement and the other Operative Documents by suit or suits or proceedings in
equity, at law or in bankruptcy, and whether for the specific performance of any
covenant or agreement herein contained or in execution or aid of any power
herein granted; or for foreclosure hereunder, or for the appointment of a
receiver or receivers for any real property security or any part thereof, or for
the recovery of judgment for the Obligations or for the enforcement of any other
proper, legal or equitable remedy available under applicable law.
9.04. WAIVER BY BORROWER. Upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default, to the extent permitted by law, Borrower covenants that it will not at
any time insist upon or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take any
benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law now or at any time hereafter
in force, nor claim, take nor insist upon any benefit or advantage of or from
any law now or hereafter in force providing for the valuation or appraisement of
the Collateral or any part thereof prior to any sale or sales thereof to be made
pursuant to any provision herein contained, or to the decree, judgment or order
of any court of competent jurisdiction; nor, after such sale or sales, claim or
exercise any right under any statute now or hereafter made or enacted by any
state or otherwise to redeem the property so sold or any part thereof, and, to

compromise any claim thereunder as fully as if Lender were Borrower itself, (c)
to receive payment of and to endorse the name of Borrower to any items of

that come into Lender's possession or under Lender's control, (d) to make all
demands, consents and waivers, or take any other action with respect to, the

immediate action is necessary to preserve or protect the Collateral. Borrower
agrees to reimburse Lender upon demand for all reasonable costs and expenses,
including attorneys' fees and expenses, which Lender may incur while acting as
Borrower's attorney in fact hereunder, all of which costs and expenses are
included within the Obligations.

filed by Borrower with the Securities and Exchange Commission) disclosed by
Borrower to Lender in writing or through inspection pursuant to this Agreement
shall be considered confidential. Lender agrees to use the same degree of care
to safeguard and prevent disclosure of such confidential information as Lender
uses with its own confidential information, but in any event no less than a
reasonable degree of care. Lender shall not disclose such information to any
third party (other than Lender's or Lender's partner's attorneys and auditors
subject to the same confidentiality obligation set forth herein) and shall use
such information only for purposes of evaluation of its investment in Borrower
and the exercise of Lender's rights and the enforcement of its remedies under
this Agreement and the other Operative Agreements. The obligations of
confidentiality shall not apply to any information that (a) was known to the
public prior to disclosure by
-27-
Borrower under this Agreement, (b) becomes known to the public through no fault
of Lender, (c) is disclosed to Lender by a third party having a legal right to
make such disclosure, or (d) is independently developed by Lender.

value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or
combination), or in case of any merger of the Company with or into another
corporation (other than a merger with another corporation in which the Company
is the acquiring and the surviving corporation and which does not result in any
reclassification or change of outstanding securities issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant), or in case of any sale of all or substantially all of the assets
of the Company, the Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the
case maybe, shall duly execute and deliver to the holder of this Warrant a new
Warrant (in form and substance satisfactory to the holder of this Warrant), or
the Company shall make appropriate provision without the issuance of a new
Warrant, so that the holder of this Warrant shall have the right to receive, at
a total purchase price not to exceed that payable upon the exercise of the
unexercised portion of this Warrant, and in lieu of the shares of Series
Preferred theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, (i) the kind and
amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and property receivable upon
such reclassification, change, merger or sale by a holder of the number of
shares of Series Preferred then purchasable under this Warrant, or (ii) in the
case of such a merger or sale in which the consideration paid consists all or in
part of assets other than securities of the successor or purchasing corporation,
at the option of the Holder of this Warrant, the securities of the successor or
purchasing corporation having a value at the time of the transaction equivalent
to the valuation of the Series Preferred at the time of the transaction. Any new
Warrant shall provide for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may
be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4. The provisions
of this subparagraph (a) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications,
changes, mergers and transfers.
(b) SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF SHARES. If the Company
at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide
or combine its outstanding shares of Series Preferred, the Warrant Price shall
be proportionately decreased and the number of Shares issuable hereunder shall
be proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision and the Warrant Price
shall be proportionately increased and the number of Shares issuable hereunder
shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a combination.
(c) STOCK DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. If the
Company at any time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall (i)
pay a dividend with respect to Series Preferred payable in Series Preferred,
then the Warrant Price shall be adjusted, from and after the date of
determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution,
to that price determined by multiplying the Warrant Price in effect immediately
prior to such date of determination by a fraction (A) the numerator of which
shall be the total number of shares of Series Preferred outstanding immediately
prior to such dividend or distribution, and (B) the denominator of which shall
be the total number of shares of Series Preferred outstanding immediately after
such dividend or distribution; or (ii) make any other distribution with respect
to Series Preferred (except any distribution specifically provided for in
Sections 4(a) and 4(b)), then, in each such case, provision shall be made by the
Company such that the holder of this Warrant shall receive upon exercise of this
Warrant a proportionate share of any such dividend or distribution as though it
were the holder of the Series Preferred (or Common Stock issuable upon
conversion thereof) as of the record date fixed for the determination of the
shareholders of the Company entitled to receive such dividend or distribution.
-3-
(d) ADJUSTMENT OF NUMBER OF SHARES. Upon each adjustment
in the Warrant Price, the number of Shares of Series Preferred purchasable
hereunder shall be adjusted, to the nearest whole share, to the product obtained
by multiplying the number of Shares purchasable immediately prior to such
adjustment in the Warrant Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be
the Warrant Price immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of
which shall be the Warrant Price immediately thereafter.
(e) ANTIDILUTION RIGHTS. The other antidilution rights
applicable to the Shares of Series Preferred purchasable hereunder are set forth
in the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended through the Date of
Grant, a true and complete copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B (the
"Charter"). Such antidilution rights shall not be restated, amended, modified or
waived in any manner that is adverse to the holder hereof without such holder's
prior written consent. The Company shall promptly provide the holder hereof with
any restatement, amendment, modification or waiver of the Charter promptly after
the same has been made.
5. NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS. Whenever the Warrant Price or the
number of Shares purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4
hereof, the Company shall make a certificate signed by its chief financial
officer setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment,
the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was
calculated, and the Warrant Price and the number of Shares purchasable hereunder
after giving effect to such adjustment, and shall cause copies of such
certificate to be mailed (without regard to Section 13 hereof, by first class
mail, postage prepaid) to the holder of this Warrant. In addition, whenever the
conversion price or conversion ratio of the Series Preferred shall be adjusted,
the Company shall make a certificate signed by its chief financial officer
setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the
amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated,
and the conversion price or ratio of the Series Preferred after giving effect to
such adjustment, and shall cause copies of such certificate to be mailed
(without regard to Section 13 hereof, by first class mail, postage prepaid) to
the holder of this Warrant.
6. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Series Preferred
will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder, but in lieu of such
fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor based on the
fair market value of the Series Preferred on the date of exercise as reasonably
determined in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors.
7. COMPLIANCE WITH ACT; DISPOSITION OF WARRANT OR SHARES OF
SERIES PREFERRED.
(a) COMPLIANCE WITH ACT. The holder of this Warrant, by
acceptance hereof, agrees that this Warrant, and the shares of Series Preferred
to be issued upon exercise hereof and any Common Stock issued upon conversion
thereof are being acquired for investment and that such holder will not offer,
sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, or any shares of Series Preferred to
be issued upon exercise hereof or any Common Stock issued upon conversion
thereof except under circumstances which will not result in a violation of the
Act or any applicable state securities laws.
-4-
Upon exercise of this Warrant, unless the Shares being acquired are registered
under the Act and any applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such
registration is available, the holder hereof shall confirm in writing that the
shares of Series Preferred so purchased (and any shares of Common Stock issued
upon conversion thereof) are being acquired for investment and not with a view
toward distribution or resale in violation of the Act and shall confirm such
other matters related thereto as may be reasonably requested by the Company.
This Warrant and all shares of Series Preferred issued upon exercise of this
Warrant and all shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof (unless
registered under the Act and any applicable state securities laws) shall be
stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:
"THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO SALE OR DISPOSITION
MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT (i) EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENTS RELATED THERETO,
(ii) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHER EVIDENCE, REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE
COMPANY, THAT SUCH REGISTRATIONS ARE NOT REQUIRED, (iii) RECEIPT OF NO-ACTION
LETTERS FROM THE APPROPRIATE GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITIES, OR (iv) OTHERWISE
COMPLYING WITH THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 7 OF THE WARRANT UNDER WHICH THESE
SECURITIES WERE ISSUED, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY."
Said legend shall be removed by the Company, upon the request of a
holder, at such time as the restrictions on the transfer of the applicable
security shall have terminated. In addition, in connection with the issuance of
this Warrant, the holder specifically represents to the Company by acceptance of
this Warrant as follows:
(1) The holder is aware of the Company's
business affairs and financial condition, and has acquired information about the
Company sufficient to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire
this Warrant. The holder is acquiring this Warrant for its own account for
investment purposes only and not with a view to, or for the resale in connection
with, any "distribution" thereof in violation of the Act. By executing this
Warrant, the holder further represents as of the Date of Grant that the holder
does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any
person to sell, transfer or grant participation to such person or to any third
person, with respect to any of the Shares or this Warrant.
(2) The holder is a holder in securities of
companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is able to fend for
itself, can bear the economic risk of its holding and has such knowledge ad
experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating
the merits and risks of the acquisition of this Warrant and the Shares.
(3) The holder understands that this Warrant has
not been registered under the Act in reliance upon a specific exemption
therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide
nature of the holder's investment intent as expressed herein.
-5-
(4) The holder further understands that this
Warrant must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Act
and qualified under any applicable state securities laws, or unless exemptions
from registration and qualification are otherwise available. The holder is aware
of the provisions of Rule 144, promulgated under the Act.
(5) The holder is an "accredited investor" as
such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Act.
(b) DISPOSITION OF WARRANT OR SHARES. With respect to any
offer, sale or other disposition of this Warrant or any shares of Series
Preferred acquired pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant prior to
registration of such Warrant or shares, the holder hereof agrees to give written
notice to the Company prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof,
together with a written opinion of such holder's counsel, or other evidence, if
reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such offer, sale or
other disposition may be effected without registration or qualification (under
the Act as then in effect or any federal or state securities law then in effect)
of this Warrant or such shares of Series Preferred or Common Stock and
indicating whether or not under the Act certificates for this Warrant or such
shares of Series Preferred to be sold or otherwise disposed of require any
restrictive legend as to applicable restrictions on transferability in order to
ensure compliance with such law. Upon receiving such written notice and
reasonably satisfactory opinion or other evidence, the Company, as promptly as
practicable but no later than fifteen (15) days after receipt of the written
notice, shall notify such holder that such holder may sell or otherwise dispose
of this Warrant or such shares of Series Preferred or Common Stock, all in
accordance with the terms of the notice delivered to the Company. If a
determination has been made pursuant to this Section 7(b) that the opinion of
counsel for the holder or other evidence is not reasonably satisfactory to the
Company, the Company shall so notify the holder promptly with details thereof
after such determination has been made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this
Warrant or such shares of Series Preferred or Common Stock may, as to such
federal laws, be offered, sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with Rule
144 or 144A under the Act, provided that the Company shall have been furnished
with such information as the Company may reasonably request to provide a
reasonable assurance that the provisions of Rule 144 or 144A have been
satisfied. Each certificate representing this Warrant or the shares of Series
Preferred thus transferred (except a transfer pursuant to Rule 144 or 144A)
shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in
order to ensure compliance with such laws, unless in the aforesaid opinion of
counsel for the holder, such legend is not required in order to ensure
compliance with such laws. The Company may issue stop transfer instructions to
its transfer agent in connection with such restrictions.
(c) APPLICABILITY OF RESTRICTIONS. Neither any
restrictions of any legend described in this Warrant nor the requirements of
Section 7(b) above shall apply to any transfer of, or grant of a security
interest in, this Warrant (or the Series Preferred or Common Stock obtainable
upon exercise thereof) or any part hereof (i) to a partner of the holder if the
holder is a partnership or to a member of the holder if the holder is a limited
liability company, (ii) to a partnership of which the holder is a partner or to
a limited liability company of which the holder is a member, or (iii) to any
affiliate of the holder if the holder is a corporation; PROVIDED,
-6-
HOWEVER, in any such transfer, if applicable, the transferee shall on the
Company's request agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Warrant as
if an original holder hereof.
8. RIGHTS AS SHAREHOLDERS; INFORMATION. No holder of this
Warrant, as such, shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed
the holder of Series Preferred or any other securities of the Company which may
at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose, nor shall
anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the holder of this
Warrant, as such, any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company or any right
to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to
shareholders at any meeting thereof, or to receive notice of meetings, or to
receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until this Warrant shall
have been exercised and the Shares purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall
have become deliverable, as provided herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Company will transmit to the holder of this Warrant such information, documents
and reports as are generally distributed to the holders of any class or series
of the securities of the Company concurrently with the distribution thereof to
the shareholders.
9. MARKET STAND-OFF AGREEMENT. During the time period not to
exceed 180 days specified by the Company and an underwriter of securities of the
Company, following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company
filed under the Act (the "Lock-up"), the holder shall not, to the extent
requested by the Company and such underwriter, directly or indirectly sell,
offer to sell, contract to sell (including, without limitation, any short sale),
grant any option to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of (other than to
transferees or donees who agree to be similarly bound) any securities of the
Company held by it at any time during such period except Common Stock included
in such registration; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this Section 9 shall be applicable
(a) only to the first such registration statement of the Company pursuant to
which Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company are to be sold on its
behalf to the public in an underwritten offering, and (b) only if all officers
and directors of the Company enter into similar agreements, and (c) such
underwriters certify to the holder of this Warrant in writing that (1) they have
determined that the holder must be so bound during the Lock-up or it would have
a material negative impact on the offering, and (2) all other holders of
warrants of the Company have agreed to be similarly restricted. In order to
enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop-transfer
restrictions with respect to the Shares of the holder (and the shares or
securities of every person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end
of such period
10. ADDITIONAL RIGHTS.
10.1 ACQUISITION TRANSACTIONS. The Company shall provide
the holder of this Warrant with at least twenty (20) days' written notice prior
to closing thereof of the terms and conditions of any of the following
transactions (to the extent the Company has notice thereof): (i) the sale,
lease, exchange, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of
the Company's property or business, or (ii) its merger into or consolidation
with any other corporation (other than a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company), or any transaction (including a merger or other reorganization) or
series of related transactions, in which more than 50% of the voting power of
the Company is disposed of.
-7-
10.2 RIGHT TO CONVERT WARRANT INTO STOCK: NET ISSUANCE.
(a) RIGHT TO CONVERT. In addition to and without
limiting the rights of the holder under the terms of this Warrant, the holder
shall have the right to convert this Warrant or any portion thereof (the
"Conversion Right") into shares of Series Preferred (or Common Stock if the
Series Preferred has been automatically converted into Common Stock) as provided
in this Section 10.2 at any time or from time to time during the term of this
Warrant. Upon exercise of the Conversion Right with respect to a particular
number of shares subject to this Warrant (the "Converted Warrant Shares"), the
Company shall deliver to the holder (without payment by the holder of any
exercise price or any cash or other consideration) that number of shares of
fully paid and nonassessable Series Preferred (or Common Stock if the Series
Preferred has been automatically converted into Common Stock) as is determined
according to the following formula:
X= B - A
-----
Y
Where: X = the number of shares of Series Preferred (or Common
Stock if the Series Preferred has been automatically
converted to Common Stock) that shall be issued to
holder
Y = the fair market value of one share of Series
Preferred (or Common Stock if the Series Preferred
has been automatically converted to Common Stock)
A = the aggregate Warrant Price of the specified number
of Converted Warrant Shares immediately prior to the
exercise of the Conversion Right (i.e., the number of
Converted Warrant Shares multiplied by the Warrant
Price)
B = the aggregate fair market value of the specified
number of Converted Warrant Shares (i.e., the number
of Converted Warrant Shares MULTIPLIED BY the fair
market value of one Converted Warrant Share)
No fractional shares shall be issuable upon exercise of the Conversion
Right, and, if the number of shares to be issued determined in accordance with
the foregoing formula is other than a whole number, the Company shall pay to the
holder an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of the resulting
fractional share on the Conversion Date (as hereinafter defined). For purposes
of Section 9 of this Warrant, shares issued pursuant to the Conversion Right
shall be treated as if they were issued upon the exercise of this Warrant.
(b) METHOD OF EXERCISE. The Conversion Right may be
exercised by the holder by the surrender of this Warrant at the principal office
of the Company together with a written statement (which may be in the form of
Exhibit A-1 or Exhibit A-2 hereto) specifying that the holder thereby intends to
exercise the Conversion Right and indicating the number of shares subject to
this Warrant which are being surrendered (referred to in Section 10.2(a) hereof
as the Converted Warrant Shares) in exercise of the Conversion Right. Such
conversion shall be effective upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant
together with the aforesaid written
-8-
statement, or on such later date as is specified therein (the "Conversion
Date"), and, at the election of the holder hereof, may be made contingent upon
the closing of the sale of the Company's Common Stock to the public in a public
offering pursuant to a Registration Statement under the Act (a "Public
Offering"). Certificates for the shares issuable upon exercise of the Conversion
Right and, if applicable, a new warrant evidencing the balance of the shares
remaining subject to this Warrant, shall be issued as of the Conversion Date and
shall be delivered to the holder within thirty (30) days following the
Conversion Date.
(c) DETERMINATION OF FAIR MARKET VALUE. For purposes of
this Section 10.2, "fair market value" of a share of Series Preferred (or Common
Stock if the Series Preferred has been automatically converted into Common
Stock) as of a particular date (the "Determination Date") shall mean:
(i) If the Conversion Right is exercised in
connection with and contingent upon a Public Offering, and if the Company's
Registration Statement relating to such Public Offering ("Registration
Statement") has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, then the initial "Price to Public" specified in the final prospectus
with respect to such offering.
(ii) If the Conversion Right is not exercised in
connection with and contingent upon a Public Offering, then as follows:
(A) If traded on a securities exchange, the fair market
value of the Common Stock shall be deemed to be the average of the closing
prices of the Common Stock on such exchange over the 30-day period ending five
business days prior to the Determination Date, and the fair market value of the
Series Preferred shall be deemed to be such fair market value of the Common
Stock multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock into which each share
of Series Preferred is then convertible;
(B) If traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market or other
over-the-counter system, the fair market value of the Common Stock shall be
deemed to be the average of the closing bid prices of the Common Stock over the
30-day period ending five business days prior to the Determination Date, and the
fair market value of the Series Preferred shall be deemed to be such fair market
value of the Common Stock multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock
into which each share of Series Preferred is then convertible; and
(C) If there is no public market for the Common Stock,
then fair market value shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the
Company acting in good faith.
10.3 EXERCISE PRIOR TO EXPIRATION. To the extent this Warrant is
not previously exercised as to all of the Shares subject hereto, and if the fair
market value of one share of the Series Preferred is greater than the Warrant
Price then in effect, this Warrant shall be deemed automatically exercised
pursuant to Section 10.2 above (even if not surrendered) immediately before its
expiration. For purposes of such automatic exercise, the fair market value of
one share of the Series Preferred upon such expiration shall be determined
pursuant to Section 10.2(c). To the extent this Warrant or any portion thereof
is deemed automatically exercised pursuant to this
-9-
Section 10.3, the Company agrees to promptly notify the holder hereof of the
number of Shares, if any, the holder hereof is to receive by reason of such
automatic exercise.
11. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Company represents and
warrants to the holder of this Warrant as follows:
(a) This Warrant has been duly authorized and executed by
the Company and is a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable in

Company shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the holder
hereof.
15. LOST WARRANTS OR STOCK CERTIFICATES. The Company covenants to
the holder hereof that, upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the

hereof (in the case of a breach by the Company), or the Company (in the case of

3. LIQUIDATION PREFERENCE.
(a) In the event of any liquidation, dissolution
or winding up of this Corporation, either voluntary or involuntary, the holders
of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any
distribution of any of the assets of this Corporation to the holders of Common
Stock or any other junior equity security by reason of their ownership thereof
an amount for each share of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock,
respectively, held by such holder equal to the sum of (i) $1.00 for each such
outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock (the "Original Series A Issue

(the "Original Series B Issue Price"), (iii) $1.25 for each such outstanding
share of Series C Preferred Stock (the "Original Series C Issue Price"), (iv)
$2.3073 for each outstanding share of Series D Preferred Stock (the "Original
Series D Issue Price"), (v) $3.036 for each outstanding share of Series E
Preferred Stock (the "Original Series E Issue Price") and (vi) in each case, an
amount equal to all declared but unpaid dividends on each such share. If upon
the occurrence of such an event the assets and funds thus distributed among the
holders of the Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit the payment to
such holders of the full aforesaid preferential amounts, then the entire assets
and funds of this Corporation legally available for distribution shall be
distributed, ratably among the holders of the Preferred Stock in proportion to
the product of the liquidation preference of each such share and the number of
such shares owned by each such holder.
(b) Upon the completion of the distribution
required by subsection 3(a) above, if assets remain in the Corporation, the
holders of the Common Stock shall receive an amount equal to $.21 per share
(adjusted to reflect any subsequent stock splits, stock dividends, or other
recapitalizations) for each share of Common Stock held by them. If, upon the
occurrence of such event, the assets and funds thus distributed among the
holders of the Common Stock shall be insufficient to permit payment to such
holders of the full aforesaid preferential amounts, then the entire assets and
funds of this Corporation legally available for distribution (after giving
effect to the distribution referred to in Section 3(a) hereof) shall be
distributed ratably among the holders of the Common Stock in proportion to the
amount of such stock owned by each such holder.
(c) After the distributions described in
subsections 3(a) and (b) have been paid, the remaining assets of this
Corporation available for distribution to stockholders shall be distributed
among the holders of Preferred Stock and Common Stock pro rata based on the
number of shares of Common Stock held by each (assuming conversion of all such
Preferred Stock).
4. REDEMPTION.
(a) The outstanding Preferred Stock shall be
redeemable as provided in this Section 4. The Series A Redemption Price shall be
the total amount equal to $1.00 per share of Series A Preferred Stock to be
redeemed together with any declared but unpaid dividends on such shares to the
Redemption Date (as such term is hereinafter defined). The Series B Redemption
Price shall be the total amount equal to $1.10 per share of Series B Preferred
Stock to be redeemed together with any declared but unpaid dividends on such
shares
-3-
to the Redemption Date. The Series C Redemption Price shall be the total amount
equal to $1.25 per share of Series C Preferred Stock to be redeemed together
with any declared but unpaid dividends on such shares to the Redemption Date.
The Series D Redemption Price shall be the total amount equal to $2.3073 per
share of Series D Preferred Stock to be redeemed together with any declared but
unpaid dividends on such shares to the Redemption Date. The Series E Redemption
Price shall be the total amount equal to $3.036 per share of Series E Preferred

(b) On or at any time after July 31, 2004, upon
the receipt by this Corporation from the holders of at least 66-2/3% of the then
outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series
C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, voting
as a single class, of a written request for redemption hereunder of their
respective shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series
C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock (the
"Redemption Request"), this Corporation shall, from any source of funds legally
available therefor, redeem all of the shares of Preferred Stock by paying in
cash therefor a sum equal to the Series A Redemption Price, the Series B
Redemption Price, the Series C Redemption Price, the Series D Redemption Price
and the Series E Redemption Price, respectively.
(c) (i) At least 15, but no more than 30,
days prior to the date fixed for any redemption of the Preferred Stock (the
"Redemption Date"), which Redemption Date shall be no later than 45 days
following the Corporation's receipt of the Redemption Request, written notice
shall be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each holder of record (at the
close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which notice is
given) of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock to be
redeemed at the address last shown on the records of this Corporation for such
holder or given by the holder to this Corporation for the purpose of notice or
if no such address appears or is given, at the place where the principal
executive office of this Corporation is located, notifying such holder of the
redemption to be effected, specifying the number of shares to be redeemed from
such holder, the Redemption Date, the Series A Redemption Price, the Series B
Redemption Price, the Series C Redemption Price, the Series D Redemption Price
or the Series E Redemption Price as the case may be, the place at which payment
may be obtained and the date on which such holder's Conversion Rights (as
hereinafter defined) as to such shares, terminating and calling upon such holder
to surrender to this Corporation, in the manner and at the place designated,
such holder's certificate or certificates representing the shares to be redeemed
(the "Redemption Notice"). Except as provided in subsection 4(c)(iii), on or
after the Redemption Date, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall surrender to this Corporation the
certificate or certificates representing such shares, in the manner and at the
place designated in the Redemption Notice, and thereupon the Series A Redemption
Price, Series B Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, the Series D
Redemption Price or the Series E Redemption Price, as the case may be, of such
shares shall be payable, to the order of the person whose name appears on such
certificate or certificates as the owner thereof and each surrendered
certificate shall be canceled. In the event less than all the shares represented
by any such certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued
representing the unredeemed shares.
-4-
(ii) If the funds of the Corporation
legally available for redemption of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock on any
Redemption Date are insufficient to redeem the total number of shares of
Preferred Stock to be redeemed on such date, those funds which are legally
available will be used to redeem the maximum possible number of such shares
ratably among the holders of (A) first, such shares of Series B, Series C,
Series D and Series E Preferred Stock to be redeemed, and (B) second, such
shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed. The shares of Preferred Stock
not redeemed shall remain outstanding and entitled to all the rights and
preferences provided herein. At any time thereafter when additional funds of
this Corporation are legally available for the redemption of shares of Preferred
Stock, such funds shall immediately be used to redeem the balance of the shares
which this Corporation has become obligated to redeem on any Redemption Date but
which it has not redeemed.
(iii) From and after the Redemption Date,
unless there shall have been a default in payment of the applicable Series A
Redemption Price, Series B Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D
Redemption Price or the Series E Redemption Price, all rights of the holders of
such shares as holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock
(except the right to receive the Series A Redemption Price, Series B Redemption
Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D Redemption Price or the Series E
Redemption Price, without interest, upon surrender of their certificate or
certificates) shall cease with respect to such shares, and such shares shall not
thereafter be transferred on the books of this Corporation or be deemed to be
outstanding for any purpose whatsoever.
(iv) At least three days prior to the
Redemption Date, this Corporation shall deposit the Series A Redemption Price,
Series B Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D Redemption Price
and Series E Redemption Price of all outstanding shares of the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, designated for redemption in the
Redemption Notice, and not yet redeemed or converted, with a bank or trust
company having aggregate capital and surplus in excess of $50,000,000, as a
trust fund for the benefit of the holders of the shares designated for
redemption and not yet redeemed. Simultaneously, this Corporation shall deposit
irrevocable instructions and authority to such bank or trust company to pay, on
and after the Redemption Date or prior thereto, the Series A Redemption Price,
Series B Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D Redemption Price
and Series E Redemption Price, as the case may be, to the holders thereof upon
surrender of their certificates. Any monies deposited by this Corporation
pursuant to this subsection 4(c)(iv) for the redemption of shares which are
thereafter converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 5 hereof no
later than the close of business on the Redemption Date shall be returned to
this Corporation forthwith upon such conversion. The balance of any monies
deposited by this Corporation pursuant to this subsection 4(c)(iv) remaining
unclaimed at the expiration of two years following the Redemption Date shall
thereafter be returned to this Corporation, provided that the stockholder to
which such monies would be payable hereunder shall be entitled, upon proof of
its ownership of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series
C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the
case may be, and payment of any bond requested by this Corporation, to receive
such monies but without interest from the Redemption Date.
-5-
5. CONVERSION. The holders of Preferred Stock shall have
conversion rights as follows (the "Conversion Rights"):
(a) RIGHT TO CONVERT.
(i) Subject to subsection 5(c), each
outstanding share of Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the
holder thereof at any time after the date of issuance of such share (and on or
prior to the fifth day prior to the Redemption Date, if any, as may have been
fixed in any Redemption Notice), at the office of this Corporation or any
transfer agent for such series of Preferred Stock, into such number of fully
paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the
Original Series A Issue Price, the Original Series B Issue Price, the Original
Series C Issue Price, the Original Series D Issue Price and the Original Series
E Issue Price, respectively, by the Conversion Price at the time in effect for
such series or shares of such series. The initial Conversion Price per share for
shares of Preferred Stock shall be the Original Series A Issue Price, the
Original Series B Issue Price, the Original Series C Issue Price, the Original
Series D Issue Price and the Original Series E Issue Price, respectively,
provided, however, that the Conversion Prices for the Series A Preferred Stock,
the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series C Preferred Stock, the Series D
Preferred Stock and the Series E Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment
as set forth in subsection 5(c).
(ii) Each outstanding share of Preferred
Stock shall automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the
Conversion Price at the time in effect for such shares immediately upon:
(A) the closing of this
Corporation's sale of its Common Stock in a bona fide, firm commitment
underwritten public offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"), which results in aggregate gross offering
proceeds to this Corporation of at least $15,000,000, at a public offering price
of not less than $7.50 per share (adjusted to reflect subsequent stock
dividends, stock splits or recapitalizations) (a "Qualifying Public Offering");
or
(B) the approval of (i)
holders of at least 75% of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred
Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class and (ii)
holders of not less than 60% of the Series D Preferred Stock voting as a class.
(b) MECHANICS OF CONVERSION. Before any holder
of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to convert the same into shares of Common
Stock, such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor,
duly endorsed, at the office of this Corporation or of any transfer agent for
such stock, and shall be given written notice by mail postage prepaid, to this
Corporation at its principal corporate office, of the election to convert the
same and shall state therein the name or names in which the certificate or
certificates for shares of Common Stock are to be issued. This Corporation
shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver at such office to
such holder of Preferred Stock, or to the nominee or nominees of such holder, a
certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which
such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. Such conversion shall be deemed to
have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such
surrender of the shares of such series of Preferred
-6-
Stock to be converted, and the person or persons entitled to receive the shares
of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes
as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock as of such date.
If the conversion is in connection with an underwritten offer of securities
registered pursuant to the Securities Act, the conversion may, at the option of
any holder tendering shares of such series of Preferred Stock for conversion, be
conditioned upon the closing with the underwriter of the sale of securities
pursuant to such offering, in which event the person(s) entitled to receive the
Common Stock issuable upon such conversion of shares of such series of Preferred
Stock shall not be deemed to have converted such shares of such series of
Preferred Stock until immediately prior to the closing of such sale of
securities.
(c) CONVERSION PRICE ADJUSTMENTS OF THE
PREFERRED STOCK. The Conversion Prices of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
(i) (A) If this Corporation shall
issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a
consideration per share less than the Conversion Price for shares of the Series
A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock in effect immediately prior to the
issuance of such Additional Stock, the new Conversion Price for such shares of
such series of Preferred Stock shall be determined by multiplying the Conversion
Price for such series of Preferred Stock in effect immediately prior to the
issuance of Additional Stock by a fraction:
(x) the numerator of
which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such issuance (for purposes of this calculation
only, including the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon
the conversion of all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock at the
Conversion Price for such shares in effect immediately prior to such
issuance of Additional Stock) plus the number of shares of Common Stock
equivalents which the aggregate consideration received by this
Corporation for the shares of such Additional Stock so issued would
purchase at the Conversion Price in effect at the time for the shares
of the series of Preferred Stock with respect to which the adjustment
is being made; and
(y) the denominator of
which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such issuance (for purposes of this calculation
only, including the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon
the conversion of all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock at the
Conversion Price for such shares in effect immediately prior to such
issuance of Additional Stock) plus the number of such shares of
Additional Stock so issued.
Any series of issuances of Additional Stock
consisting of Common Stock or the same series of Preferred
Stock, issued at the same price and within a six-month period,
shall be treated as one issuance of Additional Stock for the
purposes of this calculation.
-7-
(B) No adjustment of the
Conversion Price for such series of Preferred Stock shall be made in an amount
less than one cent per share, provided that any adjustments which are not
required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and
shall be either taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made prior to
three years from the date of the event giving rise to the adjustment being
carried forward, or shall be made at the end of three years from the date of the
event giving rise to the adjustment being carried forward. Except to the limited
extent provided for in subsections 5(c)(i)(E)(3) and (c)(i)(E)(4), no adjustment
of such Conversion Price for such series of Preferred Stock pursuant to this
subsection 5(c)(i) shall have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price for
such series of Preferred Stock above the Conversion Price for such series in
effect immediately prior to such adjustment.
(C) In the case of the issuance
of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of
cash paid therefor before deducting any reasonable discounts, commissions or
other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by this Corporation for any
underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof.
(D) In the case of the issuance
of the Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the
consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as
determined by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment.
(E) In the case of the issuance
of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by
their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or options to
purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities
(which are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock), the following
provisions shall apply:
(1) The aggregate
maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such
options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to
have been issued at the time such options or rights were issued and for a
consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in
subsections 5(c)(i)(C) and (c)(i)(D)), if any, received by the Corporation upon
the issuance of such options or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided
in such options or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby.
(2) The aggregate
maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in
exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the
exercise of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or
exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be
deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such
options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the
consideration, if any, received by this Corporation for any such securities and
related options or rights (excluding any cash received on account of accrued
interest or accrued dividends), plus the additional consideration, if any, to be
received by this Corporation upon the conversion or exchange of such securities
or the exercise of any related options or rights (the consideration in each case
to be determined in the manner provided in subsections 5(c)(i)(C) and
(c)(i)(D)).
-8-
(3) In the event of
any change in the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable or any increase
in the consideration payable to this Corporation upon exercise of such options
or rights or upon conversion of or in exchange for such convertible or
exchangeable securities, including, but not limited to, a change resulting from
the anti-dilution provisions thereof, the Conversion Price of the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the case may be, obtained with
respect to the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options,
rights or securities, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon shall be
recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment shall be made for
the actual issuance of Common Stock or any payment of such consideration upon
the exercise of any such options or rights or the conversion or exchange of such
securities; provided, however, that this section shall not have any effect on
any conversion of such series of Preferred Stock prior to such change or
increase.
(4) Upon the
expiration of any such options or rights, the termination of any such rights to
convert or exchange or the expiration of any options or rights related to such
convertible or exchangeable securities, the Conversion Price of the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the case may be, obtained with
respect to the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options,
rights or securities or options or rights related to such securities, and any
subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall be recomputed to reflect the
issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued upon the
exercise of such options or rights upon the conversion or exchange of such
securities or upon the exercise of the options or rights related to such
securities; provided, however, that this section shall not have any effect on
any conversion of such series of Preferred Stock prior to such expiration or
termination.
(ii) "Additional Stock" shall mean any
shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to
subsection 5(c)(i)(e)) by this Corporation after June 22, 1998, other than:
(A) Common Stock issued
pursuant to a transaction described in subsection 5(c)(iii) hereof, or
(B) 3,454,860 shares of Common
Stock, net of repurchases and the cancellation or expiration of options, issued
or issuable to employees, directors, consultants or advisors of this Corporation
under stock option and restricted stock purchase agreements approved by the
Board of Directors commencing as of May 1994, and such other number of shares of
Common Stock as may be fixed from time to time by the Board of Directors and
approved by a majority of then outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock, voting as a single class, issued or issuable to employees,
directors, consultants or advisors of this Corporation under stock option and
restricted stock purchase agreements approved by the Board of Directors, or
-9-
(C) Common Stock issued or
issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock.
(iii) In the event this Corporation
should at any time or from time to time after the effective date hereof fix a
record date for the effectuation of a split or subdivision of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock or the determination of holders of Common Stock
entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in additional
shares of Common Stock or other securities or rights convertible into, or
entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly, additional
shares of Common Stock (hereinafter referred to as "Common Stock
Equivalents") without payment of any consideration by such holder for the
additional shares of Common Stock or the Common Stock Equivalents (including
the additional shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise
thereof), then as of such record date (or the date of such dividend
distribution, split or subdivision if no record date is fixed), the
Conversion Price for the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred
Stock, as the case may be, shall be appropriately decreased so that the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of such
series shall be increased in proportion to such increase of outstanding
shares determined in accordance with subsection 5(c)(i)(E).
(iv) If the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding at any time after the effective date hereof is decreased by
a combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, following the
record date of such combination, the Conversion Price for the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the case may be, shall be
appropriately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
on conversion of each share of such series shall be decreased in proportion
to such decrease in outstanding shares.
(d) OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. In the event this
Corporation shall declare a distribution payable in securities of other
persons, evidences of indebtedness issued by this Corporation or other
persons, assets (excluding cash dividends) or options or rights not referred
to in subsection 5(c)(iii), then, in each such case for the purpose of this
subsection 5(d), the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock, shall be entitled to a proportionate share of any such
distribution as though they were the holders of the number of shares of
Common Stock of this Corporation into which their shares of Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the case may be, are
convertible as of the record date fixed for the determination of the holders
of Common Stock of this Corporation entitled to receive such distribution.
(e) RECAPITALIZATIONS. If at any time or
from time to time there shall be a recapitalization of the Common Stock
(other than a subdivision, combination or merger or sale of assets
transaction provided for elsewhere in this Section 5 or Section 6) provision
shall be made so that the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and
Series E Preferred Stock, shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon
conversion of such series of Preferred Stock the number of shares of stock or
other securities or property of this Corporation or otherwise, to which a
holder of
-10-
Common Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such
recapitalization. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in
the application of the provisions of this Section 5 with respect to the
rights of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred
Stock, after the recapitalization to the end that the provisions of this
Section 5 (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and
the number of shares purchasable upon conversion of such series of Preferred
Stock) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be
practicable.
(f) NO IMPAIRMENT. This Corporation will
not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any
reorganization, revitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger,
dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid
or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be
observed or performed hereunder by this Corporation, but will at all times in
good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 5
and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in
order to protect the Conversion Rights of the holders of the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock against impairment.
(g) FRACTIONAL SHARES AND CERTIFICATE AS TO
ADJUSTMENTS.
(i) No fractional shares shall be
issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock or Series E
Preferred Stock, and the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall
be rounded to the nearest whole share. Whether or not fractional shares are
issuable upon such conversion shall be determined on the basis of the total
number of shares of such series of Preferred Stock the holder is at the time
converting into Common Stock and the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon such aggregate conversion.
(ii) Upon the occurrence of each
adjustment or, readjustment of the Conversion Price of Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred
Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the case may be, pursuant to this
Section 5, this Corporation, at its expense, shall promptly compute such
adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare
and furnish to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock, or instrument convertible into shares of any such series of
Preferred Stock, as the case may be, a certificate setting forth such
adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such
adjustment or readjustment is based. This Corporation shall, upon the written
request furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a like certificate
setting forth (A) such adjustment and readjustment, (B) the Conversion Price
at the time in effect, and (C) the number of shares of Common Stock and the
amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon
the conversion of a share of such series of Preferred Stock.
(h) NOTICES OF RECORD DATE. In the event of
any taking by this Corporation of a record of the holders of any class of
securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are
entitled to receive any dividend (other than a cash dividend) or other
-11-
distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any
shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to
receive any other right, this Corporation shall mail to each holder of Series
A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series
D Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock at least 20 days prior to the
date specified therein, a notice specifying the date on which by such record
is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right and
the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right.
(i) RESERVATION OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON
CONVERSION. This Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available
out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock solely for the
purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred
Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, such number of its shares of Common Stock
as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all
authorized shares of such series of Preferred Stock, and if at any time the
number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be
sufficient to effect the conversion of all then authorized shares of such
series of Preferred Stock, in addition to such other remedies as shall be
available to the holders of such series of Preferred Stock, this Corporation
will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel be
necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to
such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.
(j) NOTICES. Any notice required by the
provisions of this Section 5 to be given to the holders of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock shall be deemed given if
deposited in the United States postage prepaid, and addressed to each holder
of record at such holder's address appearing on the books of this Corporation.
6. MERGER; CONSOLIDATION.
(a) If at any time after the effective date
hereof there is a merger, consolidation or other corporate reorganization in
which stockholders of this Corporation immediately prior to such transaction
own less than 50% of the voting securities of the surviving or controlling
entity immediately after the transaction, or sale of all or substantially all
of the assets of this Corporation (hereinafter, an "Acquisition"), then, as a
part of such Acquisition, provision shall be made so that the holders of the
Series A Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series C
Preferred Stock, the Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock
shall be entitled to receive, prior to any distribution to holders of Common
Stock or other junior equity security of the Corporation, the number of
shares of stock or other securities or property to be issued to this
Corporation or its stockholders resulting from such Acquisition in an amount
per share equal to the Original Series A Issue Price, Original Series B Issue
Price, Original Series C Issue Price, Original Series D Issue Price and
Original Series E Issue Price, as applicable, plus a further amount equal to
any dividends declared but unpaid on such shares. Subject to the following
sentence, the holders of Common Stock shall thereafter be entitled to
receive, pro rata, the remainder of the number of shares of stock or other
securities or property to be issued to this Corporation or its stockholders
resulting from such Acquisition. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Section 6, in the event the aggregate value of stock, securities and
other property to be distributed to this Corporation or its stockholders with
-12-
respect to an Acquisition is less than $5.25 per share (such dollar amount to
be appropriately adjusted to reflect any subsequent stock splits, stock
dividends or other recapitalizations) of Common Stock outstanding (for
purpose of this calculation only, including in the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon
conversion of all outstanding Preferred Stock), then the stock, securities or
other property shall be distributed among the holders of Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, the Series D
Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock and the Common Stock according to
the provisions of Section 3 hereof as if such Acquisition were deemed a

Preferred Stock, the Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock and
Common Stock pursuant to subsection 6(a) above shall be valued as follows:
(i) Securities not subject to
investment letter or other similar restrictions on free marketability;
(A) If traded on a
securities exchange, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the
closing prices of the securities on such exchange over the 30-day period
ending three days prior to the closing;
(B) If actively traded
over-the-counter, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing
bid or sale prices (whichever are applicable) over the 30-day period ending
three days prior to the closing; and
(C) If there is no active
public market, the value shall be the fair market value thereof, as mutually
determined by the Corporation and the holders of not less than a majority of
the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, the Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock.
(ii) The method of valuation of
securities subject to investment letter or other restrictions on free
marketability shall be to make an appropriate discount from the market value
determined as above in subsections 6(b)(i)(A), (B) or (C) to reflect the
approximate fair market value thereof, as mutually determined by this
Corporation and the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred, Series C Preferred Stock,
Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, voting as a single
class.
(c) In the event the requirements of
subsection 6(a) are not complied with, this Corporation shall forthwith
either:
(i) cause such closing to be
postponed until such time as the requirements of this Section 6 have been
complied with, or
(ii) cancel such transaction, in which
event the rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock shall revert to and be the same
as such rights, preferences and privileges existing immediately prior to the
date of the first notice referred to in subsection 6(d) hereof.

(d) This Corporation shall give each holder
of record of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock written
notice of such impending transaction not later than 20 days prior to the
stockholders' meeting called to approve such action, or 20 days prior to the
closing of such transaction, whichever is earlier, and shall also notify such
holders in writing of the final approval of such transaction. The first of
such notices shall describe the material terms and conditions of the
impending transaction and the provisions of this Section 6, and this
Corporation shall thereafter give such holders prompt notice of any material
changes. The transaction shall in no event take place earlier than 20 days
after the Corporation has given the first notice provided for herein or
earlier than 10 days after the Corporation has given notice of any material
changes provided for herein; provided, however, that such periods may be
shortened upon the written consent of the holders of a majority of the then
outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C

EXHIBIT C
FORM OF OPINION OF COUNSEL
[Date]
MMC/GATX PARTNERSHIP NO. I
c/o GATX Capital Corporation, Agent
Four Embarcadero Center
Suite 2200
San Francisco, California 94111
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel for Digirad Corporation (the "Borrower") in
connection with (i) the execution of the Loan and Security Agreement of even
date herewith (the "Loan Agreement") between Borrower and MMC/GATX
PARTNERSHIP NO. I ("Lender"), (ii) the issuance of warrants to purchase
Borrower's Series E Preferred Stock (the "Warrants") and (iii) the
transactions contemplated thereby. This opinion is being rendered to you
pursuant to Section 8.01 of the Loan Agreement. Capitalized terms not
otherwise defined in this opinion have the meaning given them in the Loan
Agreement.
In connection with this opinion and our representation, we have
examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our
satisfaction, of the following:
(i) The Loan Agreement;
(ii) The Warrants;
(iii) The Note dated as of [Date];
(iv) The Restated Articles of Incorporation and the Bylaws of
Borrower, each as in effect on the date hereof;
(v) The certificate of an officer of Borrower as to certain
factual matters ("Officer Certificate");
(vi) Certificates issued by the Secretary of State of the State of
[state of incorporation] dated ____________________ 199__,
certifying the good standing of Borrower;
(vii) Such other documents, records, and certificates as we have
deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions
hereafter expressed.
The Loan Agreement, the Note and the Warrants are hereinafter
referred to as the "Transaction Documents."
In such examinations we have assumed the genuineness of all
signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals
and the conformity to originals of all documents submitted to us as
certified, facsimile, telecopied or photostatic copies thereof. As to certain
matters of fact material to our opinion, we have relied upon the Officer
Certificate and upon your representations in the Transaction Documents.
As used in this opinion, the expression "to the best of our
knowledge," means the actual present knowledge or belief of those attorneys
in our firm who have or who are currently representing Borrower. We have not
undertaken any independent investigation to determine the existence or
nonexistence of other facts, and no inference as to our knowledge of the
existence or nonexistence of other facts should be drawn from the fact of
this firm's representation of Borrower in connection with the Transaction
Documents.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing and subject to the
qualifications contained herein, we are of the opinion that:
(a) Borrower is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and
in good standing under the laws of the State of [state of incorporation].
(b) Borrower has the requisite corporate power and authority to
execute, deliver and perform the Transaction Documents and to issue the
Warrants. All action on the part of Borrower, its directors and its shareholders
necessary for the authorization, execution, delivery and performance of the
Transaction Documents, has been taken. The Transaction Documents have been duly
executed and delivered by an authorized officer of Borrower.
(c) The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction
Documents do not conflict with or violate any provision of Borrower's Restated
Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws or of applicable law.
(d) The Transaction Documents constitute legal, valid and binding
obligations of Borrower, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms.
To our knowledge, no filing need be made with any governmental authority with
respect to the Transaction Documents in connection with an exemption from state
usury laws or in connection with any other matter. [usury may be excepted]
(e) The shares of Series E Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise
of the Warrants have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance upon such
exercise, and when issued in accordance with the terms of the Warrants, will be
duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
(f) The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the
Series E Preferred Stock into which the Warrants are convertible, have been duly
authorized and reserved for
issuance, when so issued in accordance with the terms of Borrower's Restated
Articles of Incorporation, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid
and non-assessable.
The opinions set forth above are subject to the following additional

FORM OF SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT
This Subordination Agreement (this "AGREEMENT") is made as of this
_____ day of _______ 1999, by and between _________ Bank ("SENIOR CREDITOR")
having its principal place of business at
________________________________________________, and MMC/GATX Partnership
No. I, a California general partnership, having its principal place of
business at Four Embarcadero Center, Suite 2200, San Francisco, California
94111 ("CREDITOR").
RECITALS
A. Digirad Corporation ("BORROWER") has a _______________________
Dollars ($___________) revolving line of credit from Senior Creditor which is or
may be from time to time secured by assets and property of Borrower, pursuant to
the [Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of _________ 1999], between Borrower
and Senior Creditor (as the same may from time to time be amended, modified,
supplemented, restated or replaced, the "SENIOR LOAN AGREEMENT") and the other
documents executed in connection therewith (together with the Senior Loan
Agreement, the "SENIOR CREDIT DOCUMENTS").
B. Creditor has extended or will extend loans in the aggregate
original principal amount of Three Million and 00/100 Dollars ($3,000,000.00) as
evidenced by one or more Secured Promissory Notes (and as the same may from time
to time be amended, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed, restated or
replaced, the "SUBORDINATED NOTES") made by Borrower in favor of Creditor.
Borrower's obligations to Creditor evidenced by the Subordinated Notes are
secured by the personal property collateral granted by the Borrower to Creditor
pursuant to a Loan and Security Agreement dated as of October __ 1999 (as the
same may from time to time be amended, modified, supplemented or restated, the
"SUBORDINATED SECURITY AGREEMENT").
(a) Pursuant to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, Creditor is willing to subordinate: (i) all of Borrower's
indebtedness and obligations to Creditor, whether presently existing or arising
in the future under or relating to the Subordinated Security Agreement and
Subordinated Notes (collectively, the "SUBORDINATED DEBT") to Borrower's
indebtedness and obligations to Senior Creditor in a principal amount not to
exceed the lesser of: (1) a borrowing base calculated as a percentage (not
exceeding 100%) of qualified accounts receivable plus eligible inventory, or (2)
$2,500,000.00 (the "SENIOR PRINCIPAL AMOUNT"), plus interest thereon at the
standard rate (and not the default rate) set forth in the Senior Credit
Documents (including all interest accruing after the commencement by or against
Borrower of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding), plus, without
limitation, the cost of collecting such obligations (including attorneys' fees)
(collectively, the "SENIOR DEBT"); and (ii) all of Creditor's security interests
in Borrower's property (other than Financed Equipment) (the "COLLATERAL") to all
of Senior Creditor's security interests in Borrower's property. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in the definition of "Subordinated Debt",
there shall be expressly excluded from such definition any warrant(s) to
purchase securities of Borrower executed by Borrower in favor of Creditor or its
assignee ("WARRANTS") and all rights of the holder thereunder.
For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Financed Equipment" shall mean all
right, title, interest, claims and demands of Borrower in and to each and
every item of equipment, fixtures or personal property, whether now owned or
hereafter acquired, together with all substitutions, renewals or replacements
of and additions, improvements, accessions, replacement parts and
accumulations to any and all of such equipment, fixtures or personal
property, together with all proceeds thereof, including, without limitation,
insurance, condemnation, requisition or similar payments, and all proceeds
from sales, renewals, releases or other dispositions thereof, which is
financed with or is designated as collateral for Borrower's obligations to
Creditor under, and on and after the date of, the Subordinated Security
Agreement by the designation of such equipment, fixtures and personal
property on a UCC financing statement listing Borrower as "debtor" and
Creditor as "secured party."
NOW, THEREFORE, THE PARTIES AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
1. Notwithstanding the respective dates of attachment or
perfection of the security interest of Creditor and the security interest of
Senior Creditor: (i) the security interest of Creditor in the property of
Borrower (other than Financed Equipment), shall at all times be subordinate to
the security interest of Senior Creditor; provided, that if the security
interest of Senior Creditor in certain assets or property of Borrower is not
valid or perfected then the lien subordination set forth in this Section 1 shall
not be effective with respect to such assets or property of Borrower, and (ii)
all security interests now or hereafter acquired by Creditor in Financed
Equipment shall at all times be prior and superior to any security interests now
held or hereafter acquired by Senior Creditor in the Financed Equipment.
Creditor shall turn over to Senior Creditor any payments received from the sale,
liquidation, other disposition or exercise of remedies with respect to any
property of Borrower (other than Financed Equipment). Senior Creditor shall turn
over to Creditor any payments or proceeds received from the sale, liquidation,
other disposition or exercise of remedies with respect to the Financed
Equipment.
2. Nothing herein shall be deemed to subordinate, waive
or restrict the performance of the obligations arising under the Warrants or
subordinate any interest in stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants or
subordinate any interest in the Financed Equipment. Nothing herein shall be
deemed to restrict or prevent Borrower from making any payment to Creditor under
the Subordinated Debt.
3. If the Senior Creditor delivers to Creditor a written
notice (a "BLOCKAGE NOTICE") which states a specific default has occurred under
the Senior Credit Documents and continues to exist after the giving of any
required notice and the expiration of any applicable grace or cure period, then
during any Blockage Period (as defined below), Creditor shall not exercise any
remedy with respect to the Collateral, or commence, or cause to be commenced or
prosecuted, or participate in any administrative, legal or equitable action
against Borrower. As used herein, "Blockage Period" means a period of time
beginning on the date a Blockage Notice is delivered to Creditor and terminating
on the earlier of: (1) 60 days thereafter, or (2) Senior Creditor's written
consent to such termination, or (3) when Senior Creditor has commenced a
judicial proceeding or non-judicial actions to collect or enforce the Senior
Debt or a case or proceeding by or against Borrower is commenced under the
federal Bankruptcy Code or any other insolvency law. After the termination of
any Blockage Period pursuant to the terms hereof
and until Creditor's receipt of a subsequent Blockage Notice from Senior
Creditor, Creditor may exercise any remedy with respect to the Collateral and
the Subordinated Debt, or commence, or cause to be commenced or prosecuted, or
participate in any administrative, legal or equitable action against Borrower.
Senior Creditor shall not collect, take possession of, foreclose upon, or
exercise any rights or remedies with respect to the Financed Equipment,
judicially or nonjudicially, or attempt to do any of the foregoing, without the
prior written consent of Creditor, which shall be a matter of Creditor's sole
discretion.
4. (a) Upon an event of default under the
Subordinated Security Agreement, a sale or disposition of any of the Financed
Equipment whether or not approved by Creditor, the bankruptcy or insolvency of
Borrower, or Creditor's exercise of remedies against Borrower (a "Release
Event"), Senior Creditor's security interests in the Financed Equipment shall be
automatically terminated without further deed or act. The proceeds of any
Financed Equipment so sold or disposed of shall be applied, after the deduction
of any and all costs relating to such sale or disposition (including attorneys'
fees, advertising costs and auctioneer's fees) to any and all indebtedness
evidenced by the Subordinated Security Agreement in such order as Creditor may,
in its discretion, determine, and only if all obligations owed to Creditor by
Borrower under the Subordinated Security Agreement have been paid in full, then
to all or any part of the present or future indebtedness, liabilities,
guaranties or other obligations of Borrower to Senior Creditor in such order as
Senior Creditor may, in its discretion, determine.
(b) Senior Creditor agrees to execute and
deliver to Creditor, promptly upon Creditor's request, appropriate UCC
termination statements or partial releases with respect to any Financed
Equipment on or after a Release Event; although Senior Creditor acknowledges
that its security interests in the Financed Equipment would be released in
any event pursuant to Section (a).
(c) Senior Creditor hereby irrevocably
appoints Creditor as Senior Creditor's attorney-in-fact, and grants to
Creditor a power of attorney with full power of substitution, in the name of
Senior Creditor, for the use and benefit of Creditor, without notice to
Senior Creditor, on or after a Release Event to execute and file UCC
termination statements or partial releases with respect to any Financed
Equipment; although Senior Creditor acknowledges that its security interests
in the Financed Equipment would be released in any event pursuant to Section
(a).
(d) Senior Creditor acknowledges and agrees
that Creditor has no fiduciary, agent, bailee or duty to Senior Creditor
with regard to the Financed Equipment. Senior Creditor acknowledges and
agrees that Creditor has no obligations to Senior Creditor as a junior
lienholder except only those obligations specifically assumed by Creditor
under this Agreement and Senior Creditor waives any other junior lienholder
rights, claims and defenses. Senior Creditor shall not resist or take any
action to prevent Creditor from exercising any remedies with respect to the
Financed Equipment and Senior Creditor shall turn over to Creditor any
Financed Equipment coming into Senior Creditor's possession or custody.
Except as provided in this Agreement, at any time and from time to time,
without notice to Senior Creditor, Creditor may take such actions with
respect to the Subordinated Security Agreement and the Financed Equipment as
Creditor, in its sole discretion, may deem appropriate, including, without
limitation, terminating advances to Borrower, increasing the principal amount
of the Subordinated Notes, extending the time of payment, increasing
applicable interest rates, renewing, compromising or otherwise amending the
terms of any documents affecting the Subordinated Notes, the Subordinated
Security Agreement, and the Financed Equipment, and enforcing or failing to
enforce any rights against Borrower or any other person. Senior Creditor
waives the benefits, if any, of any statutory or common law rule that may
permit a subordinating creditor to assert any defenses of a surety, guarantor
or junior lienholder, or that may give the subordinating creditor the right
to require a senior creditor to marshal assets, give notice or maximize
value, and Senior Creditor agrees that it shall not assert any such defenses,
claims or rights.
4. At any time and from time to time, without notice to
Creditor, Senior Creditor may take such actions with respect to the Senior Debt
as Senior Creditor, in its sole discretion, may deem appropriate, including,
without limitation, terminating advances to Borrower, increasing the principal
amount in an amount not to exceed the Senior Principal Amount, extending the
time of payment, increasing applicable interest rates, renewing, compromising or
otherwise amending the terms of any documents affecting the Senior Debt and any
collateral securing the Senior Debt, and enforcing or failing to enforce any
rights against Borrower or any other person, but in no event shall the principal
amount be increased in an amount exceeding the Senior Principal Amount. Creditor
waives the benefits, if any, of any statutory or common law rule that may permit
a subordinating creditor to assert any defenses of a surety or guarantor, or
that may give the subordinating creditor the right to require a senior creditor
to marshal assets, and Creditor agrees that it shall not assert any such
defenses or rights inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.
5. In the event of Borrower's insolvency, reorganization
or any case or proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or laws
relating to the relief of debtors, these provisions shall remain in full force
and effect. This Agreement shall remain effective until the earlier of: (i)
Borrower no longer owes any amounts under the Senior Credit Documents, or (ii)
Creditor has received payment of all amounts owed Creditor under the
Subordinated Notes and the Subordinated Security Agreements.
6. This Agreement shall bind any successors or
assignees of the parties. This Agreement is solely for the benefit of
Creditor and Senior Creditor and not for the benefit of Borrower or any other
party.
7. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which
together shall constitute one instrument. This Agreement shall become effective
only when it shall have been executed by Creditor and Senior Creditor (provided,
however, in no event shall this Agreement become effective until signed by an
officer of Senior Creditor in California).
8. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of California without giving effect to
conflicts of law principles. Creditor and Senior Creditor submit to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the Northern
District of California. CREDITOR AND SENIOR CREDITOR WAIVE THEIR
RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON
OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED
HEREIN.
9. This Agreement represents the entire agreement with
respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior negotiations,
agreements and commitments. Creditor is not relying on any representations by
Senior Creditor or Borrower in entering into this Agreement, and Creditor has
kept and will continue to keep itself fully apprised of the financial and other
condition of Borrower. Senior Creditor is not relying on any representations by
Creditor or Borrower in entering into this Agreement or the Senior Credit
Documents, and Senior Creditor has kept and will continue to keep itself fully
apprised of the financial and other condition of Borrower. This Agreement may be
amended only by written instrument signed by Creditor and Senior Creditor.
10. In the event of any legal action to enforce the
rights of a party under this Agreement, the party prevailing in such action
shall be entitled, in addition to such other relief as may be granted, all
reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred in
such action.
11. Promptly upon an event of default under the
Subordinated Security Agreement and the Subordinated Notes, Creditor shall
endeavor to provide Senior Creditor with written notice of such default, but
Creditor's failure to do so shall not result in any breach of this Agreement or
affect the rights of the parties hereto.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this
Agreement as of the date first above written.

credit insurance, guaranties, and other security therefor, as well as all

thereof, which is financed with or is
designated as collateral for the Obligations
on and after the date of this Agreement by
designating such equipment, fixtures and
personal property on a UCC financing
statement listing Borrower as "debtor" and
Lender as "secured party."
(h) Sections 5.04 and
5.05 of the Agreement shall be changed to read as follows:
5.04 EQUIPMENT COLLATERAL.
On or prior to its execution and delivery of this Agreement, Borrower shall
provide Lender with a listing, in detail to Lender's satisfaction, of all of
Borrower's equipment, fixtures and personal property (collectively, an
"Equipment List"), which, at Lender's option, shall be attached as an exhibit
to a UCC financing statement filed by Lender naming Borrower as "debtor" and
Lender as "secured party." Within thirty days after the end of every quarter
after the date hereof, Borrower shall provide Lender with an Equipment List
of equipment, fixtures and personal property acquired by Borrower during such
quarter through and including April 27, 2001, and such Equipment List shall,
at Lender's option, be attached as an exhibit to a UCC financing statement
filed by Lender naming Borrower as "debtor" and Lender as "secured party."
Borrower agrees to execute and deliver to Lender any and all such financing
statements to Lender. Borrower's equipment, fixtures and personal property
acquired after April 27, 2001 may become Third Party Equipment.
5.05 LIEN SUBORDINATION.
Lender agrees that the Liens granted to it hereunder (except for Liens in
Equipment Collateral) shall be subordinate to the Liens granted in connection
with Indebtedness permitted by clause (e) of the definition of Permitted
Indebtedness. Lender agrees to enter into a subordination agreement with the
lender of the Indebtedness permitted by clause (e) of the definition of
Permitted Indebtedness substantially in the form of EXHIBIT D and to
negotiate in good faith any changes thereto as long as they are acceptable to
Lender. Lender agrees that the Liens granted to it hereunder in Third Party
Equipment shall be subordinate to the Liens of future lenders providing
equipment financing and equipment lessors for equipment and other personal
property acquired by Borrower after April 27, 2001 ("THIRD PARTY EQUIPMENT");
PROVIDED, that, in the case of equipment financings and leasing such Liens
are confined solely to the equipment so financed and the proceeds thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Obligations hereunder shall not be
subordinate in right of payment to any obligations to other lenders,
equipment lenders or equipment lessors and Lender's rights and remedies
hereunder shall not in any way be subordinate to the rights and remedies of
any such lender or equipment lessors. Lender agrees to execute and deliver
such agreements and documents as may be reasonably requested by Borrower from
time to time which set forth the lien subordination described in this SECTION
5.05 and are reasonably acceptable to Lender. Lender shall have no obligation
to execute any agreement or document which would impose obligations,
restrictions or lien priority on Lender which are less favorable to Lender
than those described in this SECTION 5.05.
-5-
(i) New Section 5.06 and
5.07 shall be added to the Agreement, which read as follows:
5.06 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.
(a) Within 30 days of the date of this Agreement, Borrower shall register or
cause to be registered with the United States Copyright Office any software
(material to the business of Borrower) developed or acquired by Borrower in
connection with any product developed or acquired for sale or licensing. (b)
While any Obligations remain outstanding, Borrower shall register or cause to
be registered with the United States Copyright Office (i) any software
(material to the business of Borrower) developed or acquired by Borrower
hereafter from time to time in connection with any product developed or
acquired for sale or licensing and (ii) any major revisions or upgrades to
any software that has previously been registered with the United States
Copyright Office. Borrower shall file for registration within 30 days from
the development or acquisition of such software, major revision or upgrade.
(c) If Borrower has or will federally register any Intellectual Property with
the United States Copyright Office or the United States Patent and Trademark
Office, then Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender, for filing with
the United States Copyright Office or the United States Patent and Trademark
Office, as the case may be, a grant of security interest in such Intellectual
Property, in form acceptable to Lender, within 30 days of the date Borrower
registers such Intellectual Property. (d) If, on or before December 31, 2000,
Borrower raises at least Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000) in the next
equity round, and no Default or Event of Default shall exist at such time,
then Lender agrees to release its security interest in Intellectual Property.
5.07 NIS AND FLORIDA
ACQUISITIONS; COPELCO EQUIPMENT FINANCING. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, Lender consents to Borrower entering into a $3,250,000
credit facility with Copelco or another lender to finance 10 cameras and
associated chairs and vehicle, and such equipment may be Third Party
Equipment hereunder. In addition, Lender consents to Borrower's acquisition
of (i) the mobile business of Nuclear Imaging Systems ("NIS") for the payment
to NIS of $750,000 and up to 200,000 shares of Borrower's common stock, (ii)
the fixed business of NIS on substantially the same terms as set forth in
Exhibit D to this First Amendment, and (iii) the mobile business of Florida
Cardiology and Nuclear Medicine Group ("FCNM") for the payment to FCNM of
$1,000,000 and up to 400,000 shares of Borrower's common stock; provided,
however, prior to Borrower forming any new Subsidiary to hold such assets,
Borrower shall provide to Lender documentation to Lender's satisfaction,
including without limitation, subsidiary guaranties, to ensure Lender's
perfected security interest in such assets, subject only to Permitted Liens.
(j) A new Section 6.01(e)
shall be added to the Agreement which reads as follows:
(e) EQUITY INVESTMENT.
Borrower shall permit Lender, at Lender's option, to purchase in Borrower's
next round of equity financing up to $500,000 of the securities sold in such

each Lender promptly upon the execution by Borrower of a term sheet or letter

hereof, each reference to the Loan Agreement in the Loan Agreement or in any
other document shall mean the Loan Agreement as amended by this First Amendment.

waiver of any provision of the Loan Agreement.

WARRANT
-11-
THIS WARRANT HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO SALE OR DISPOSITION MAY BE EFFECTED
WITHOUT (i) EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENTS RELATED THERETO, (ii) AN OPINION
OF COUNSEL OR OTHER EVIDENCE, REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT SUCH
REGISTRATIONS ARE NOT REQUIRED, (iii) RECEIPT OF NO-ACTION LETTERS FROM THE
APPROPRIATE GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITIES, OR (iv) OTHERWISE COMPLYING WITH THE
PROVISIONS OF SECTION 7 OF THIS WARRANT.
DIGIRAD CORPORATION
WARRANT TO PURCHASE SHARES
OF SERIES E PREFERRED STOCK
THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, GATX VENTURES, INC. and its
assignees are entitled to subscribe for and purchase 57,642 shares of the fully
paid and nonassessable Series E Preferred Stock (as adjusted pursuant to Section
4 hereof, the "Shares") of DIGIRAD CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), at the price of $3.036 per share (such price and such other price as
shall result, from time to time, from the adjustments specified in Section 4
hereof is herein referred to as the "Warrant Price"), subject to the provisions
and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. As used herein, (a) the
term "Series Preferred" shall mean the Company's presently authorized Series E
Preferred Stock, and any stock into or for which such Series E Preferred Stock
may hereafter be converted or exchanged, and after the automatic conversion of
the Series E Preferred Stock to Common Stock shall mean the Company's Common
Stock, (b) the term "Date of Grant" shall mean August 14, 2000, and (c) the term
"Other Warrants" shall mean any other warrants issued by the Company in
connection with the transaction with respect to which this Warrant was issued,
the Loan and Security Agreement dated as of October 27, 1999 (the "Loan
Agreement") between the Company and the lender named therein, and any warrant
issued upon transfer or partial exercise of or in lieu of this Warrant. The term
"Warrant" as used herein shall be deemed to include Other Warrants unless the
context clearly requires otherwise.
If the Company is eligible under the Loan Agreement and requests Lender
to fund the Second Loan pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, but Lender
elects not to fund the Second Loan, the number of shares of the fully paid and
nonassessable Series E Preferred Stock the holder is entitled to subscribe for
and purchase as set forth above shall be reduced from 172,925 to 115,283. The
terms "Lender" and "Second Loan" shall have the meaning given these capitalized
terms in the Loan Agreement.
1. TERM. The purchase right represented by this Warrant is
exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time from the
Date of Grant through the later of (i) seven (7) years after the Date of Grant
or (ii) five (5) years after the closing of the Company's initial public
offering of its Common Stock ("IPO") effected pursuant to a Registration
Statement on Form S-l (or its successor) filed under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Act").
2. METHOD OF EXERCISE; PAYMENT; ISSUANCE OF NEW WARRANT. Subject
to Section 1 hereof, the purchase right represented by this Warrant may be
exercised by the holder hereof, in whole or in part and from time to time, at
the election of the holder hereof, by (a) the surrender of this Warrant (with
the notice of exercise substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1
duly completed and executed) at the principal office of the Company and by the
payment to the Company, by certified or bank check, or by wire transfer to an
account designated by the Company "Wire Transfer") of an amount equal to the
then applicable Warrant Price multiplied by the number of Shares then being
purchased; (b) if in connection with a registered public offering of the
Company's securities, the surrender of this Warrant (with the notice of exercise
form attached hereto as Exhibit A-2 duly completed and executed) at the
principal office of the Company together with notice of arrangements reasonably
satisfactory to the Company for payment to the Company either by certified or
bank check or by Wire Transfer from the proceeds of the sale of shares to be
sold by the holder in such public offering of an amount equal to the then
applicable Warrant Price per share multiplied by the number of Shares then being
purchased; or (c) exercise of the "net issuance" right provided for in Section
10.2 hereof. The person or persons in whose name(s) any certificate(s)
representing shares of Series Preferred shall be issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant shall be deemed to have become the holder(s) of record of, and shall be
treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of, the shares represented
thereby (and such shares shall be deemed to have been issued) immediately prior
to the close of business on the date or dates upon which this Warrant is
exercised. In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this
Warrant, certificates for the shares of stock so purchased shall be delivered to
the holder hereof as soon as possible and in any event within thirty (30) days
after such exercise and, unless this Warrant has been fully exercised or
expired, a new Warrant representing the portion of the Shares, if any, with
respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised shall also be
issued to the holder hereof as soon as possible and in any event within such
thirty-day period; provided, however, at such time as the Company is subject to
the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
if requested by the holder of this Warrant, the Company shall cause its transfer
agent to deliver the certificate representing Shares issued upon exercise of
this Warrant to a broker or other person (as directed by the holder exercising
this Warrant) within the time period required to settle any trade made by the
holder after exercise of this Warrant.
3. STOCK FULLY PAID; RESERVATION OF SHARES. All Shares that may
be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon
issuance pursuant to the terms and conditions herein, be fully paid and
nonassessable, and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the
issue thereof. During the period within which the rights represented by this
Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized, and
reserved for the purpose of the issue upon exercise of the purchase rights
evidenced by this Warrant, a sufficient number of shares of its Series Preferred
to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant and a
sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock to provide for the conversion of
the Series Preferred into Common Stock.
4. ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES. The number
and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the
Warrant Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
occurrence of certain events, as follows:
-2-
(a) RECLASSIFICATION OR MERGER. In case of any
reclassification or change of securities of the class issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par
value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or
combination), or in case of any merger of the Company with or into another
corporation (other than a merger with another corporation in which the Company
is the acquiring and the surviving corporation and which does not result in any
reclassification or change of outstanding securities issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant), or in case of any sale of all or substantially all of the assets
of the Company, the Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the
case may be, shall duly execute and deliver to the holder of this Warrant a new
Warrant (in form and substance satisfactory to the holder of this Warrant), or
the Company shall make appropriate provision without the issuance of a new
Warrant, so that the holder of this Warrant shall have the right to receive, at
a total purchase price not to exceed that payable upon the exercise of the
unexercised portion of this Warrant, and in lieu of the shares of Series
Preferred theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, (i) the kind and
amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and property receivable upon
such reclassification, change, merger or sale by a holder of the number of
shares of Series Preferred then purchasable under this Warrant, or (ii) in the
case of such a merger or sale in which the consideration paid consists all or in
part of assets other than securities of the successor or purchasing corporation,
at the option of the Holder of this Warrant, the securities of the successor or
purchasing corporation having a value at the time of the transaction equivalent
to the valuation of the Series Preferred at the time of the transaction. Any new
Warrant shall provide for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may
be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4. The provisions
of this subparagraph (a) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications,
changes, mergers and transfers.
(b) SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF SHARES. If the Company
at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide
or combine its outstanding shares of Series Preferred, the Warrant Price shall
be proportionately decreased and the number of Shares issuable hereunder shall
be proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision and the Warrant Price
shall be proportionately increased and the number of Shares issuable hereunder
shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a combination.
(c) STOCK DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. If the
Company at any time while this Warrant is outstanding and unexpired shall (i)
pay a dividend with respect to Series Preferred payable in Series Preferred,
then the Warrant Price shall be adjusted, from and after the date of
determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution,
to that price determined by multiplying the Warrant Price in effect immediately
prior to such date of determination by a fraction (A) the numerator of which
shall be the total number of shares of Series Preferred outstanding immediately
prior to such dividend or distribution, and (B) the denominator of which shall
be the total number of shares of Series Preferred outstanding immediately after
such dividend or distribution; or (ii) make any other distribution with respect
to Series Preferred (except any distribution specifically provided for in
Sections 4(a) and 4(b)), then, in each such case, provision shall be made by the
Company such that the holder of this Warrant shall receive upon exercise of this
Warrant a proportionate share of any such dividend or distribution as though it
were the holder of the Series Preferred (or Common Stock issuable upon
conversion thereof) as of the record date fixed for the determination of the
shareholders of the Company entitled to receive such dividend or distribution.
-3-
(d) ADJUSTMENT OF NUMBER OF SHARES. Upon each adjustment
in the Warrant Price, the number of Shares of Series Preferred purchasable
hereunder shall be adjusted, to the nearest whole share, to the product obtained
by multiplying the number of Shares purchasable immediately prior to such
adjustment in the Warrant Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be
the Warrant Price immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of
which shall be the Warrant Price immediately thereafter.
(e) ANTIDILUTION RIGHTS. The other antidilution rights
applicable to the Shares of Series Preferred purchasable hereunder are set forth
in the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended through the Date of
Grant, a true and complete copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B (the
"Charter"). Such antidilution rights shall not be restated, amended, modified or
waived in any manner that is adverse to the holder hereof without such holder's
prior written consent. The Company shall promptly provide the holder hereof with
any restatement, amendment, modification or waiver of the Charter promptly after
the same has been made.
5. NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS. Whenever the Warrant Price or the
number of Shares purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4
hereof, the Company shall make a certificate signed by its chief financial
officer setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment,
the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was
calculated, and the Warrant Price and the number of Shares purchasable hereunder
after giving effect to such adjustment, and shall cause copies of such
certificate to be mailed (without regard to Section 13 hereof, by first class
mail, postage prepaid) to the holder of this Warrant. In addition, whenever the
conversion price or conversion ratio of the Series Preferred shall be adjusted,
the Company shall make a certificate signed by its chief financial officer
setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the
amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated,
and the conversion price or ratio of the Series Preferred after giving effect to
such adjustment, and shall cause copies of such certificate to be mailed
(without regard to Section 13 hereof, by first class mail, postage prepaid) to
the holder of this Warrant.
6. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Series Preferred
will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder, but in lieu of such
fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor based on the
fair market value of the Series Preferred on the date of exercise as reasonably
determined in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors.
7. COMPLIANCE WITH ACT; DISPOSITION OF WARRANT OR SHARES OF
SERIES PREFERRED.
(a) COMPLIANCE WITH ACT. The holder of this Warrant, by
acceptance hereof, agrees that this Warrant, and the shares of Series Preferred
to be issued upon exercise hereof and any Common Stock issued upon conversion
thereof are being acquired for investment and that such holder will not offer,
sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, or any shares of Series Preferred to
be issued upon exercise hereof or any Common Stock issued upon conversion
thereof except under circumstances which will not result in a violation of the
Act or any applicable state securities laws. Upon exercise of this Warrant,
unless the Shares being acquired
-4-
are registered under the Act and any applicable state securities laws or an
exemption from such registration is available, the holder hereof shall
confirm in writing that the shares of Series Preferred so purchased (and any
shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof) are being acquired for
investment and not with a view toward distribution or resale in violation of
the Act and shall confirm such other matters related thereto as may be
reasonably requested by the Company. This Warrant and all shares of Series
Preferred issued upon exercise of this Warrant and all shares of Common Stock
issued upon conversion thereof (unless registered under the Act and any
applicable state securities laws) shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend
in substantially the following form:
"THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO SALE OR
DISPOSITION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT (i) EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENTS
RELATED THERETO, (ii) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHER EVIDENCE, REASONABLY
SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT SUCH REGISTRATIONS ARE NOT REQUIRED, (iii)
RECEIPT OF NO-ACTION LETTERS FROM THE APPROPRIATE GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITIES,
OR (iv) OTHERWISE COMPLYING WITH THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 7 OF THE WARRANT
UNDER WHICH THESE SECURITIES WERE ISSUED, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY."
Said legend shall be removed by the Company, upon the request of a
holder, at such time as the restrictions on the transfer of the applicable
security shall have terminated. In addition, in connection with the issuance
of this Warrant, the holder specifically represents to the Company by
acceptance of this Warrant as follows:
(1) The holder is aware of the Company's
business affairs and financial condition, and has acquired information about
the Company sufficient to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to
acquire this Warrant. The holder is acquiring this Warrant for its own
account for investment purposes only and not with a view to, or for the
resale in connection with, any "distribution" thereof in violation of the
Act. By executing this Warrant, the holder further represents as of the Date
of Grant that the holder does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement
or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation to
such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Shares or this
Warrant.
(2) The holder is a holder in securities of
companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is able to fend
for itself, can bear the economic risk of its holding and has such knowledge
ad experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of
evaluating the merits and risks of the acquisition of this Warrant and the
Shares.
(3) The holder understands that this Warrant
has not been registered under the Act in reliance upon a specific exemption
therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide
nature of the holder's investment intent as expressed herein.
(4) The holder further understands that
this Warrant must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under
the Act and qualified under any applicable state
-5-
securities laws, or unless exemptions from registration and qualification are
otherwise available. The holder is aware of the provisions of Rule 144,
promulgated under the Act.
(5) The holder is an "accredited investor"
as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Act.
(b) DISPOSITION OF WARRANT OR
SHARES. With respect to any offer, sale or other disposition of this
Warrant or any shares of Series Preferred acquired pursuant to the exercise
of this Warrant prior to registration of such Warrant or shares, the holder
hereof agrees to give written notice to the Company prior thereto, describing
briefly the manner thereof, together with a written opinion of such holder's
counsel, or other evidence, if reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the
effect that such offer, sale or other disposition may be effected without
registration or qualification (under the Act as then in effect or any federal
or state securities law then in effect) of this Warrant or such shares of
Series Preferred or Common Stock and indicating whether or not under the Act
certificates for this Warrant or such shares of Series Preferred to be sold
or otherwise disposed of require any restrictive legend as to applicable
restrictions on transferability in order to ensure compliance with such law.
Upon receiving such written notice and reasonably satisfactory opinion or
other evidence, the Company, as promptly as practicable but no later than
fifteen (15) days after receipt of the written notice, shall notify such
holder that such holder may sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or such
shares of Series Preferred or Common Stock, all in accordance with the terms
of the notice delivered to the Company. If a determination has been made
pursuant to this Section 7(b) that the opinion of counsel for the holder or
other evidence is not reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Company
shall so notify the holder promptly with details thereof after such
determination has been made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Warrant or
such shares of Series Preferred or Common Stock may, as to such federal laws,
be offered, sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with Rule 144 or 144A
under the Act, provided that the Company shall have been furnished with such
information as the Company may reasonably request to provide a reasonable
assurance that the provisions of Rule 144 or 144A have been satisfied. Each
certificate representing this Warrant or the shares of Series Preferred thus
transferred (except a transfer pursuant to Rule 144 or 144A) shall bear a
legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to
ensure compliance with such laws, unless in the aforesaid opinion of counsel
for the holder, such legend is not required in order to ensure compliance
with such laws. The Company may issue stop transfer instructions to its
transfer agent in connection with such restrictions.
(c) APPLICABILITY OF RESTRICTIONS.
Neither any restrictions of any legend described in this Warrant nor
the requirements of Section 7(b) above shall apply to any transfer of, or
grant of a security interest in, this Warrant (or the Series Preferred or
Common Stock obtainable upon exercise thereof) or any part hereof (i) to a
partner of the holder if the holder is a partnership or to a member of the
holder if the holder is a limited liability company, (ii) to a partnership of
which the holder is a partner or to a limited liability company of which the
holder is a member, or (iii) to any affiliate of the holder if the holder is
a corporation; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, in any such transfer, if applicable, the
transferee shall on the Company's request agree in writing to be bound by the
terms of this Warrant as if an original holder hereof.
-6-
8. RIGHTS AS SHAREHOLDERS; INFORMATION. No holder of this
Warrant, as such, shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed
the holder of Series Preferred or any other securities of the Company which may
at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose, nor shall
anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the holder of this
Warrant, as such, any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company or any right
to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to
shareholders at any meeting thereof, or to receive notice of meetings, or to
receive dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until this Warrant shall
have been exercised and the Shares purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall
have become deliverable, as provided herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Company will transmit to the holder of this Warrant such information, documents
and reports as are generally distributed to the holders of any class or series
of the securities of the Company concurrently with the distribution thereof to
the shareholders.
9. MARKET STAND-OFF AGREEMENT. During the time period not to
exceed 180 days specified by the Company and an underwriter of securities of the
Company, following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company
filed under the Act (the "Lock-up"), the holder shall not, to the extent
requested by the Company and such underwriter, directly or indirectly sell,
offer to sell, contract to sell (including, without limitation, any short sale),
grant any option to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of (other than to
transferees or donees who agree to be similarly bound) any securities of the
Company held by it at any time during such period except Common Stock included
in such registration; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this Section 9 shall be applicable
(a) only to the first such registration statement of the Company pursuant to
which Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company are to be sold on its
behalf to the public in an underwritten offering, and (b) only if all officers
and directors of the Company enter into similar agreements, and (c) such
underwriters certify to the holder of this Warrant in writing that (1) they have
determined that the holder must be so bound during the Lock-up or it would have
a material negative impact on the offering, and (2) all other holders of
warrants of the Company have agreed to be similarly restricted. In order to
enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose stop-transfer
restrictions with respect to the Shares of the holder (and the shares or
securities of every person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end
of such period.
10. ADDITIONAL RIGHTS.
10.1 ACQUISITION TRANSACTIONS. The Company shall provide
the holder of this Warrant with at least twenty (20) days' written notice prior
to closing thereof of the terms and conditions of any of the following
transactions (to the extent the Company has notice thereof): (i) the sale,
lease, exchange, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of
the Company's property or business, or (ii) its merger into or consolidation
with any other corporation (other than a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company), or any transaction (including a merger or other reorganization) or
series of related transactions, in which more than 50% of the voting power of
the Company is disposed of.
-7-
10.2 RIGHT TO CONVERT WARRANT INTO STOCK; NET ISSUANCE.
(a) RIGHT TO CONVERT. In addition to and
without limiting the rights of the holder under the terms of this Warrant,
the holder shall have the right to convert this Warrant or any portion
thereof (the "Conversion Right") into shares of Series Preferred (or Common
Stock if the Series Preferred has been automatically converted into Common
Stock) as provided in this Section 10.2 at any time or from time to time
during the term of this Warrant. Upon exercise of the Conversion Right with
respect to a particular number of shares subject to this Warrant (the
"Converted Warrant Shares"), the Company shall deliver to the holder (without
payment by the holder of any exercise price or any cash or other
consideration) that number of shares of fully paid and nonassessable Series
Preferred (or Common Stock if the Series Preferred has been automatically
converted into Common Stock) as is determined according to the following
formula:
X = B-A
---
Y
Where: X= the number of shares of Series Preferred (or Common
Stock if the Series Preferred has been automatically
converted to Common Stock) that shall be issued to
holder
Y= the fair market value of one share of Series
Preferred (or Common Stock if the Series Preferred
has been automatically converted to Common Stock)
A= the aggregate Warrant Price of the specified number
of Converted Warrant Shares immediately prior to the
exercise of the Conversion Right (I.E., the number of
Converted Warrant Shares MULTIPLIED BY the Warrant
Price)
B= the aggregate fair market value of the specified
number of Converted Warrant Shares (I.E., the number
of Converted Warrant Shares MULTIPLIED BY the fair
market value of one Converted Warrant Share)
No fractional shares shall be issuable upon exercise of the
Conversion Right, and, if the number of shares to be issued determined in
accordance with the foregoing formula is other than a whole number, the
Company shall pay to the holder an amount in cash equal to the fair market
value of the resulting fractional share on the Conversion Date (as
hereinafter defined). For purposes of Section 9 of this Warrant, shares
issued pursuant to the Conversion Right shall be treated as if they were
issued upon the exercise of this Warrant.
(b) METHOD OF EXERCISE. The Conversion Right may be
exercised by the holder by the surrender of this Warrant at the principal office
of the Company together with a written statement (which may be in the form of
Exhibit A-1 or Exhibit A-2 hereto) specifying that the holder thereby intends to
exercise the Conversion Right and indicating the number of shares subject to
this Warrant which are being surrendered (referred to in Section 10.2(a) hereof
as the Converted Warrant Shares) in exercise of the Conversion Right. Such
conversion shall be effective upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant
together with the aforesaid written
-8-
statement, or on such later date as is specified therein (the "Conversion
Date"), and, at the election of the holder hereof, may be made contingent
upon the closing of the sale of the Company's Common Stock to the public in a
public offering pursuant to a Registration Statement under the Act (a "Public
Offering"). Certificates for the shares issuable upon exercise of the
Conversion Right and, if applicable, a new warrant evidencing the balance of
the shares remaining subject to this Warrant, shall be issued as of the
Conversion Date and shall be delivered to the holder within thirty (30) days
following the Conversion Date.
(c) DETERMINATION OF FAIR MARKET VALUE. For purposes of
this Section 10.2, "fair market value" of a share of Series Preferred (or Common
Stock if the Series Preferred has been automatically converted into Common
Stock) as of a particular date (the "Determination Date") shall mean:
(i) If the Conversion Right is exercised in
connection with and contingent upon a Public Offering, and if the Company's
Registration Statement relating to such Public Offering ("Registration
Statement") has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, then the initial "Price to Public" specified in the final

Dividends, if declared, must be declared and paid with respect to all series of
Preferred Stock contemporaneously, and if less than full dividends are declared,
the same percentage of the dividend rate will be payable to each series of
Preferred Stock.

3. LIQUIDATION PREFERENCE.
(a) In the event of any liquidation, dissolution
or winding up of this Corporation, either voluntary or involuntary, the holders
of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any
distribution of any of the assets of this Corporation to the holders of Common
Stock or any other junior equity security by reason of their ownership thereof
an amount for each share of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock,
respectively, held by such holder equal to the sum of (i) $1.00 for each such
outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock (the "Original Series A Issue
Price"), (ii) $1.10 for each such outstanding share of Series B Preferred Stock
(the "Original Series B Issue Price"), (iii) $1.25 for each such outstanding
share of Series C Preferred Stock (the "Original Series C Issue Price"), (iv)
$2.3073 for each outstanding share of Series D Preferred Stock (the "Original
Series D Issue Price"), (v) $3.036 for each outstanding share of Series E
Preferred Stock (the "Original Series E Issue Price") and (vi) in each case, an
amount equal to all declared but unpaid dividends on each such share. If upon
the occurrence of such an event the assets and funds thus distributed among the
holders of the Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit the payment to
such holders of the full aforesaid preferential amounts, then the entire assets
and funds of this Corporation legally available for distribution shall be
distributed, ratably among the holders of the Preferred Stock in proportion to
the product of the liquidation preference of each such share and the number of
such shares owned by each such holder.
(b) Upon the completion of the distribution
required by subsection 3(a) above, if assets remain in the Corporation, the
holders of the Common Stock shall receive an amount equal to $.21 per share
(adjusted to reflect any subsequent stock splits, stock dividends, or other
recapitalizations) for each share of Common Stock held by them. If, upon the
occurrence of such event, the assets and funds thus distributed among the
holders of the Common Stock shall be insufficient to permit payment to such
holders of the full aforesaid preferential amounts, then the entire assets and
funds of this Corporation legally available for distribution (after giving
effect to the distribution referred to in Section 3(a) hereof) shall be
distributed ratably among the holders of the Common Stock in proportion to the
amount of such stock owned by each such holder.
(c) After the distributions described in
subsections 3(a) and (b) have been paid, the remaining assets of this
Corporation available for distribution to stockholders shall be distributed
among the holders of Preferred Stock and Common Stock pro rata based on the
number of shares of Common Stock held by each (assuming conversion of all such
Preferred Stock).
4. REDEMPTION.
(a) The outstanding Preferred Stock shall be
redeemable as provided in this Section 4. The Series A Redemption Price shall be
the total amount equal to $1.00 per share of Series A Preferred Stock to be
redeemed together with any declared but unpaid dividends on such shares to the
Redemption Date (as such term is hereinafter defined). The Series B Redemption
Price shall be the total amount equal to $1.10 per share of Series B Preferred
Stock to be redeemed together with any declared but unpaid dividends on such
shares to the Redemption Date. The Series C Redemption Price shall be the total
amount equal to $1.25 per share of Series C Preferred Stock to be redeemed
together with any declared but unpaid dividends on such shares
-3-
to the Redemption Date. The Series D Redemption Price shall be the total amount
equal to $2.3073 per share of Series D Preferred Stock to be redeemed together
with any declared but unpaid dividends on such shares to the Redemption Date.
The Series E Redemption Price shall be the total amount equal to $3.036 per
share of Series E Preferred Stock to be redeemed together with any declared but
unpaid dividends on such shares to the Redemption Date.
(b) On or at any time after July 31, 2004, upon
the receipt by this Corporation from the holders of at least 66-2/3% of the then
outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series
C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, voting
as a single class, of a written request for redemption hereunder of their
respective shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series
C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock (the
"Redemption Request"), this Corporation shall, from any source of funds legally
available therefor, redeem all of the shares of Preferred Stock by paying in
cash therefor a sum equal to the Series A Redemption Price, the Series B
Redemption Price, the Series C Redemption Price, the Series D Redemption Price
and the Series E Redemption Price, respectively.
(c) (i) At least 15, but no more than 30,
days prior to the date fixed for any redemption of the Preferred Stock (the
"Redemption Date"), which Redemption Date shall be no later than 45 days
following the Corporation's receipt of the Redemption Request, written notice
shall be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each holder of record (at the
close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which notice is
given) of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock to be
redeemed at the address last shown on the records of this Corporation for such
holder or given by the holder to this Corporation for the purpose of notice or
if no such address appears or is given, at the place where the principal
executive office of this Corporation is located, notifying such holder of the
redemption to be effected, specifying the number of shares to be redeemed from
such holder, the Redemption Date, the Series A Redemption Price, the Series B
Redemption Price, the Series C Redemption Price, the Series D Redemption Price
or the Series E Redemption Price as the case may be, the place at which payment
may be obtained and the date on which such holder's Conversion Rights (as
hereinafter defined) as to such shares, terminating and calling upon such holder
to surrender to this Corporation, in the manner and at the place designated,
such holder's certificate or certificates representing the shares to be redeemed
(the "Redemption Notice"). Except as provided in subsection 4(c)(iii), on or
after the Redemption Date, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall surrender to this Corporation the
certificate or certificates representing such shares, in the manner and at the
place designated in the Redemption Notice, and thereupon the Series A Redemption
Price, Series B Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, the Series D
Redemption Price or the Series E Redemption Price, as the case may be, of such
shares shall be payable, to the order of the person whose name appears on such
certificate or certificates as the owner thereof and each surrendered
certificate shall be canceled. In the event less than all the shares represented
by any such certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued
representing the unredeemed shares.
-4-
(ii) If the funds of the Corporation
legally available for redemption of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock on any
Redemption Date are insufficient to redeem the total number of shares of
Preferred Stock to be redeemed on such date, those funds which are legally
available will be used to redeem the maximum possible number of such shares
ratably among the holders of (A) first, such shares of Series B, Series C,
Series D and Series E Preferred Stock to be redeemed, and (B) second, such
shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed. The shares of Preferred Stock
not redeemed shall remain outstanding and entitled to all the rights and
preferences provided herein. At any time thereafter when additional funds of
this Corporation are legally available for the redemption of shares of Preferred
Stock, such funds shall immediately be used to redeem the balance of the shares
which this Corporation has become obligated to redeem on any Redemption Date but
which it has not redeemed.
(iii) From and after the Redemption Date,
unless there shall have been a default in payment of the applicable Series A
Redemption Price, Series B Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D
Redemption Price or the Series E Redemption Price, all rights of the holders of
such shares as holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock
(except the right to receive the Series A Redemption Price, Series B Redemption
Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D Redemption Price or the Series E
Redemption Price, without interest, upon surrender of their certificate or
certificates) shall cease with respect to such shares, and such shares shall not
thereafter be transferred on the books of this Corporation or be deemed to be
outstanding for any purpose whatsoever.
(iv) At least three days prior to the
Redemption Date, this Corporation shall deposit the Series A Redemption Price,
Series B Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D Redemption Price
and Series E Redemption Price of all outstanding shares of the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, designated for redemption in the
Redemption Notice, and not yet redeemed or converted, with a bank or trust
company having aggregate capital and surplus in excess of $50,000,000, as a
trust fund for the benefit of the holders of the shares designated for
redemption and not yet redeemed. Simultaneously, this Corporation shall deposit
irrevocable instructions and authority to such bank or trust company to pay, on
and after the Redemption Date or prior thereto, the Series A Redemption Price,
Series B Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D Redemption Price
and Series E Redemption Price, as the case may be, to the holders thereof upon
surrender of their certificates. Any monies deposited by this Corporation
pursuant to this subsection 4(c)(iv) for the redemption of shares which are
thereafter converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 5 hereof no
later than the close of business on the Redemption Date shall be returned to
this Corporation forthwith upon such conversion. The balance of any monies
deposited by this Corporation pursuant to this subsection 4(c)(iv) remaining
unclaimed at the expiration of two years following the Redemption Date shall
thereafter be returned to this Corporation, provided that the stockholder to
which such monies would be payable hereunder shall be entitled, upon proof of
its ownership of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series
C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the
case may be, and payment of any bond requested by this Corporation, to receive
such monies but without interest from the Redemption Date.
-5-
5. CONVERSION. The holders of Preferred Stock shall have
conversion rights as follows (the "Conversion Rights"):
(a) RIGHT TO CONVERT.
(i) Subject to subsection 5(c), each
outstanding share of Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the
holder thereof at any time after the date of issuance of such share (and on or
prior to the fifth day prior to the Redemption Date, if any, as may have been
fixed in any Redemption Notice), at the office of this Corporation or any
transfer agent for such series of Preferred Stock, into such number of fully
paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the
Original Series A Issue Price, the Original Series B Issue Price, the Original
Series C Issue Price, the Original Series D Issue Price and the Original Series
E Issue Price, respectively, by the Conversion Price at the time in effect for
such series or shares of such series. The initial Conversion Price per share for
shares of Preferred Stock shall be the Original Series A Issue Price, the
Original Series B Issue Price, the Original Series C Issue Price, the Original
Series D Issue Price and the Original Series E Issue Price, respectively,
provided, however, that the Conversion Prices for the Series A Preferred Stock,
the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series C Preferred Stock, the Series D
Preferred Stock and the Series E Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment
as set forth in subsection 5(c).
(ii) Each outstanding share of Preferred
Stock shall automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the
Conversion Price at the time in effect for such shares immediately upon:
(A) the closing of this
Corporation's sale of its Common Stock in a bona fide, firm commitment
underwritten public offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"), which results in aggregate gross offering
proceeds to this Corporation of at least $15,000,000, at a public offering price
of not less than $7.50 per share (adjusted to reflect subsequent stock
dividends, stock splits or recapitalizations) (a "Qualifying Public Offering");
or
(B) the approval of (i)
holders of at least 75% of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred
Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class and (ii)
holders of not less than 60% of the Series D Preferred Stock voting as a class.
(b) MECHANICS OF CONVERSION. Before any holder
of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to convert the same into shares of Common
Stock, such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor,
duly endorsed, at the office of this Corporation or of any transfer agent for
such stock, and shall be given written notice by mail postage prepaid, to this
Corporation at its principal corporate office, of the election to convert the
same and shall state therein the name or names in which the certificate or
certificates for shares of Common Stock are to be issued. This Corporation
shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver at such office to
such holder of Preferred Stock, or to the nominee or nominees of such holder, a
certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which
such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. Such conversion shall be deemed to
have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such
surrender of the shares of such series of Preferred
-6-
Stock to be converted, and the person or persons entitled to receive the shares
of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes
as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock as of such date.
If the conversion is in connection with an underwritten offer of securities
registered pursuant to the Securities Act, the conversion may, at the option of
any holder tendering shares of such series of Preferred Stock for conversion, be
conditioned upon the closing with the underwriter of the sale of securities
pursuant to such offering, in which event the person(s) entitled to receive the
Common Stock issuable upon such conversion of shares of such series of Preferred
Stock shall not be deemed to have converted such shares of such series of
Preferred Stock until immediately prior to the closing of such sale of
securities.
(c) CONVERSION PRICE ADJUSTMENTS OF THE
PREFERRED STOCK. The Conversion Prices of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
(i) (A) If this Corporation shall
issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a
consideration per share less than the Conversion Price for shares of the Series
A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock in effect immediately prior to the
issuance of such Additional Stock, the new Conversion Price for such shares of
such series of Preferred Stock shall be determined by multiplying the Conversion
Price for such series of Preferred Stock in effect immediately prior to the
issuance of Additional Stock by a fraction:
(x) the numerator of
which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such issuance (for purposes of this calculation
only, including the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon
the conversion of all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock at the
Conversion Price for such shares in effect immediately prior to such
issuance of Additional Stock) plus the number of shares of Common Stock
equivalents which the aggregate consideration received by this
Corporation for the shares of such Additional Stock so issued would
purchase at the Conversion Price in effect at the time for the shares
of the series of Preferred Stock with respect to which the adjustment
is being made; and
(y) the denominator of
which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such issuance (for purposes of this calculation
only, including the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon
the conversion of all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock at the
Conversion Price for such shares in effect immediately prior to such
issuance of Additional Stock) plus the number of such shares of
Additional Stock so issued.
Any series of issuances of Additional Stock
consisting of Common Stock or the same series of Preferred
Stock, issued at the same price and within a six-month period,
shall be treated as one issuance of Additional Stock for the
purposes of this calculation.
-7-
(B) No adjustment of the
Conversion Price for such series of Preferred Stock shall be made in an
amount less than one cent per share, provided that any adjustments which are
not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward
and shall be either taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made
prior to three years from the date of the event giving rise to the adjustment
being carried forward, or shall be made at the end of three years from the
date of the event giving rise to the adjustment being carried forward. Except
to the limited extent provided for in subsections 5(c)(i)(E)(3) and
(c)(i)(E)(4), no adjustment of such Conversion Price for such series of
Preferred Stock pursuant to this subsection 5(c)(i) shall have the effect of
increasing the Conversion Price for such series of Preferred Stock above the
Conversion Price for such series in effect immediately prior to such
adjustment.
(C) In the case of the
issuance of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be
the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting any reasonable discounts,
commissions or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by this Corporation
for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale
thereof.
(D) In the case of the
issuance of the Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other
than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair
value thereof as determined by the Board of Directors irrespective of any
accounting treatment.
(E) In the case of the
issuance of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock,
securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock
or options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or
exchangeable securities (which are not excluded from the definition of
Additional Stock), the following provisions shall apply:
(1) The aggregate
maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such
options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed
to have been issued at the time such options or rights were issued and for a
consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided
in subsections 5(c)(i)(C) and (c)(i)(D)), if any, received by the Corporation
upon the issuance of such options or rights plus the minimum purchase price
provided in such options or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby.
(2) The aggregate
Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible
or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options to purchase or
rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and
subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued
at the time such securities were issued or such options or rights were issued
and for a consideration equal to the consideration, if any, received by this
Corporation for any such securities and related options or rights (excluding
any cash received on account of accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus
the additional consideration, if any, to be received by this Corporation upon
the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related
options or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the
manner provided in subsections 5(c)(i)(C) and (c)(i)(D)).
-8-
(3) In the event of
any change in the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable or any
increase in the consideration payable to this Corporation upon exercise of
such options or rights or upon conversion of or in exchange for such
convertible or exchangeable securities, including, but not limited to, a
change resulting from the anti-dilution provisions thereof, the Conversion
Price of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the
case may be, obtained with respect to the adjustment which was made upon the
issuance of such options, rights or securities, and any subsequent
adjustments based thereon shall be recomputed to reflect such change, but no
further adjustment shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock or
any payment of such consideration upon the exercise of any such options or
rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities; provided, however,
that this section shall not have any effect on any conversion of such series
of Preferred Stock prior to such change or increase.
(4) Upon the
expiration of any such options or rights, the termination of any such rights
to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options or rights related to
such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Conversion Price of the
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock,
Series D Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the case may be,
obtained with respect to the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of
such options, rights or securities or options or rights related to such
securities, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall be recomputed
to reflect the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually
issued upon the exercise of such options or rights upon the conversion or
exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options or rights
related to such securities; provided, however, that this section shall not
have any effect on any conversion of such series of Preferred Stock prior to
such expiration or termination.
(ii) "Additional Stock" shall mean any
shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to
subsection 5(c)(i)(E)) by this Corporation after June 22, 1998, other than:
(A) Common Stock issued
pursuant to a transaction described in subsection 5(c)(iii) hereof, or
(B) 3,454,860 shares of
Common Stock, net of repurchases and the cancellation or expiration of
options, issued or issuable to employees, directors, consultants or advisors
of this Corporation under stock option and restricted stock purchase
agreements approved by the Board of Directors commencing as of May 1994, and
such other number of shares of Common Stock as may be fixed from time to time
by the Board of Directors and approved by a majority of then outstanding
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock,
Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, voting as a single
class, issued or issuable to employees, directors, consultants or advisors of
this Corporation under stock option and restricted stock purchase agreements
approved by the Board of Directors, or
-9-
(C) Common Stock issued or
issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock.
(iii) In the event this Corporation
should at any time or from time to time after the effective date hereof fix a
record date for the effectuation of a split or subdivision of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock or the determination of holders of Common Stock
entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in additional
shares of Common Stock or other securities or rights convertible into, or
entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly, additional
shares of Common Stock (hereinafter referred to as "Common Stock
Equivalents") without payment of any consideration by such holder for the
additional shares of Common Stock or the Common Stock Equivalents (including
the additional shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise
thereof), then as of such record date (or the date of such dividend
distribution, split or subdivision if no record date is fixed), the
Conversion Price for the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred
Stock, as the case may be, shall be appropriately decreased so that the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of such
series shall be increased in proportion to such increase of outstanding
shares determined in accordance with subsection 5(c)(i)(E).
(iv) If the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding at any time after the effective date hereof is decreased by
a combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, following the
record date of such combination, the Conversion Price for the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the case may be, shall be
appropriately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
on conversion of each share of such series shall be decreased in proportion
to such decrease in outstanding shares.
(d) OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. In the event this
Corporation shall declare a distribution payable in securities of other
persons, evidences of indebtedness issued by this Corporation or other
persons, assets (excluding cash dividends) or options or rights not referred
to in subsection 5(c)(iii), then, in each such case for the purpose of this
subsection 5(d), the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock, shall be entitled to a proportionate share of any such
distribution as though they were the holders of the number of shares of
Common Stock of this Corporation into which their shares of Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the case may be, are
convertible as of the record date fixed for the determination of the holders
of Common Stock of this Corporation entitled to receive such distribution.
(e) RECAPITALIZATIONS. If at any time or
from time to time there shall be a recapitalization of the Common Stock
(other than a subdivision, combination or merger or sale of assets
transaction provided for elsewhere in this Section 5 or Section 6) provision
shall be made so that the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and
Series E Preferred Stock, shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon
conversion of such series of Preferred Stock the number of shares of stock or
other securities or property of this Corporation or otherwise, to which a
holder of
-10-
Common Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such
recapitalization. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in
the application of the provisions of this Section 5 with respect to the
rights of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred
Stock, after the recapitalization to the end that the provisions of this
Section 5 (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and
the number of shares purchasable upon conversion of such series of Preferred
Stock) shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be
practicable.
(f) NO IMPAIRMENT. This Corporation will
not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any
reorganization, revitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger,
dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid
or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be
observed or performed hereunder by this Corporation, but will at all times in
good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 5
and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in
order to protect the Conversion Rights of the holders of the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock against impairment.
(g) FRACTIONAL SHARES AND CERTIFICATE AS TO
ADJUSTMENTS.
(i) No fractional shares shall be
issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock or Series E
Preferred Stock, and the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall
be rounded to the nearest whole share. Whether or not fractional shares are
issuable upon such conversion shall be determined on the basis of the total
number of shares of such series of Preferred Stock the holder is at the time
converting into Common Stock and the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon such aggregate conversion.
(ii) Upon the occurrence of each
adjustment or, readjustment of the Conversion Price of Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred
Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the case may be, pursuant to this
Section 5, this Corporation, at its expense, shall promptly compute such
adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare
and furnish to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock, or instrument convertible into shares of any such series of
Preferred Stock, as the case may be, a certificate setting forth such
adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such
adjustment or readjustment is based. This Corporation shall, upon the written
request furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a like certificate
setting forth (A) such adjustment and readjustment, (B) the Conversion Price
at the time in effect, and (C) the number of shares of Common Stock and the
amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon
the conversion of a share of such series of Preferred Stock.
(h) NOTICES OF RECORD DATE. In the event of
any taking by this Corporation of a record of the holders of any class of
securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are
entitled to receive any dividend (other than a cash dividend) or other
-11-
distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any
shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to
receive any other right, this Corporation shall mail to each holder of Series
A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series
D Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock at least 20 days prior to the
date specified therein, a notice specifying the date on which by such record
is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right and
the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right.
(i) RESERVATION OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON
CONVERSION. This Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available
out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock solely for the
purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred
Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, such number of its shares of Common Stock
as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all
authorized shares of such series of Preferred Stock, and if at any time the
number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be
sufficient to effect the conversion of all then authorized shares of such
series of Preferred Stock, in addition to such other remedies as shall be
available to the holders of such series of Preferred Stock, this Corporation
will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel be
necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to
such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.
(j) NOTICES. Any notice required by the
provisions of this Section 5 to be given to the holders of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock shall be deemed given if
deposited in the United States postage prepaid, and addressed to each holder
of record at such holder's address appearing on the books of this Corporation.
6. MERGER; CONSOLIDATION.
(a) If at any time after the effective date
hereof there is a merger, consolidation or other corporate reorganization in
which stockholders of this Corporation immediately prior to such transaction
own less than 50% of the voting securities of the surviving or controlling
entity immediately after the transaction, or sale of all or substantially all
of the assets of this Corporation (hereinafter, an "Acquisition"), then, as a
part of such Acquisition, provision shall be made so that the holders of the
Series A Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series C
Preferred Stock, the Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock
shall be entitled to receive, prior to any distribution to holders of Common
Stock or other junior equity security of the Corporation, the number of
shares of stock or other securities or property to be issued to this
Corporation or its stockholders resulting from such Acquisition in an amount
per share equal to the Original Series A Issue Price, Original Series B Issue
Price, Original Series C Issue Price, Original Series D Issue Price and
Original Series E Issue Price, as applicable, plus a further amount equal to
any dividends declared but unpaid on such shares. Subject to the following
sentence, the holders of Common Stock shall thereafter be entitled to
receive, pro rata, the remainder of the number of shares of stock or other
securities or property to be issued to this Corporation or its stockholders
resulting from such Acquisition. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Section 6, in the event the aggregate value of stock, securities and
other property to be distributed to this Corporation or its stockholders with
-12-
respect to an Acquisition is less than $5.25 per share (such dollar amount to
be appropriately adjusted to reflect any subsequent stock splits, stock

be at Lender's sole discretion), Borrower shall be permitted to prepay all
Indebtedness hereunder without payment of any Applicable Premium.

Agreement, Bank agrees to make Advances to Borrower in an aggregate outstanding
amount not to exceed the Committed Revolving Line or the Borrowing Base,
whichever is less. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,

any time during the term of this Agreement.
(b) Whenever Borrower desires an Advance, Borrower will
notify Bank by facsimile transmission or telephone no later than 3:00 p.m.
Pacific time, on the Business Day that the Advance is to be made. Each such
notification shall be promptly confirmed by a Payment/Advance Form in

under this Agreement, based upon instructions received from a Responsible

Bank will credit the amount of Advances made under this Section 2.1 to

(c) The Committed Revolving Line shall terminate on the

and other amounts due under this Agreement (except as otherwise expressly
specified herein) shall be immediately due and payable.
2.2 OVERADVANCES. If, at any time or for any reason, the amount of
Obligations owed by Borrower to Bank pursuant to Section 2. 1.1 of this
Agreement is greater than the lesser of (i) the Committed Revolving Line or (ii)

of such excess.
2.3 INTEREST RATES, PAYMENTS, AND CALCULATIONS.
(a) INTEREST RATE. Except as set forth in Section 2.3(b),
any Advances shall bear interest, on the average daily balance thereof, at a per
annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus 1.00%, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, if the
Borrower satisfies the Rate Reduction Conditions (as defined below), then the
Advances shall bear interest, on the average daily balance thereof, at a per
annum rate equal to the Prime Rate plus 0.25%, PROVIDED, FURTHER, the foregoing
rate reduction is to be considered effective on and after the date that Bank has
received and reviewed
-9-
Borrower's financial statements evidencing compliance with such Rate Reduction
Conditions and Bank determines that such financial statements are acceptable to
the Bank. Regardless of the foregoing, under no circumstance shall the foregoing
rate reduction become effective at any time that an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing.
As used herein the term "RATE REDUCTION CONDITIONS" shall mean
the Borrower's compliance with both the following: (1) Borrower has attained,
and maintains, a Tangible Net Worth of at least $4,500,000 and (2) Borrower has
attained, and maintains, a ratio of Quick Assets to Current Liabilities of at
least 1.00 to 1.

indebtedness shall bear interest, from and after the occurrence of an Event of
Default, at a rate equal to five (5) percentage points above the interest rate
applicable immediately prior to the occurrence of the Event of Default.

on each Payment Date. Borrower hereby authorizes Bank to debit any accounts with
Bank, including, without limitation, Account Number 3300119295 for payments of
principal and interest due on the Obligations and any other amounts owing by
Borrower to Bank. Bank will notify Borrower of all debits which Bank has made
against Borrower's accounts. Any such debits against Borrower's accounts in no
way shall be deemed a set-off. Any interest not paid when due shall be
compounded by becoming a part of the Obligations, and such interest shall
thereafter accrue interest at the rate then applicable hereunder.
(d) COMPUTATION. In the event the Prime Rate is changed
from time to time hereafter, the applicable rate of interest hereunder shall be
increased or decreased effective as of 12:01 a.m. on the day the Prime Rate is
changed, by an amount equal to such change in the Prime Rate. All interest
chargeable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of a three
hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual number of days elapsed.
2.4 CREDITING PAYMENTS. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of
Default, Bank shall credit a wire transfer of funds, check or other item of
payment to such deposit account or Obligation as Borrower specifies. After the
occurrence of an Event of Default, the receipt by Bank of any wire transfer of
funds, check, or other item of payment, whether directed to Borrower's deposit
account with Bank or to the Obligations or otherwise, shall be immediately
applied to conditionally reduce Obligations, but shall not be considered a
payment in respect of the Obligations unless such payment is of immediately
available federal funds or unless and until such check or other item of payment
is honored when presented for payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, any wire transfer or payment received by Bank after 12:00 noon
Pacific time shall be deemed to have been received by Bank as of the opening of
business on the immediately following Business Day. Whenever any payment to Bank
under the Loan Documents would otherwise be due (except by reason of
acceleration) on a date that is not a Business Day, such payment shall instead
be due on the next Business Day, and additional fees or interest, as the case
may be, shall accrue and be payable for the period of such extension.

Committed Revolving Line is increased to an amount in excess of $1,500,000 and

increase over $1,500,000. Such fees shall be deemed fully earned and
nonrefundable as of the Closing Date. Further, and in addition to the foregoing,
Borrower shall pay Bank an unused line fee, in addition to all interest and
other fees payable hereunder. The amount of such unused line fee shall be 0.375%
per annum multiplied by an amount equal to amount of applicable Committed
Revolving Line in effect from time to time MINUS the average daily balance of
the outstanding Loans. Such unused line fee shall be computed and paid
quarterly, in arrears, on the last day of January, April, July and October of

any loans, Bank shall notify Borrower thereof. Borrower agrees to pay to Bank
the amount of such increase in cost, reduction in income or additional expense
as and when such cost, reduction or expense is incurred or determined, upon
presentation by Bank of a statement of the amount and setting forth
-11-
Bank's calculation thereof, all in reasonable detail, which statement shall be

which are authorized by Borrower:
-21-
(a) Declare all Obligations, whether evidenced by this

payments and do such acts as Bank considers necessary or reasonable to protect
its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower agrees to assemble the
Collateral if Bank so requires, and to make the Collateral available to Bank as
Bank may designate. Borrower authorizes Bank to enter the premises where the
Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any
part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any encumbrance,
charge, or lien which in Bank's determination appears to be prior or superior to
its security interest and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith.
With respect to any of Borrower's premises, Borrower hereby grants Bank a
license to enter such premises and to occupy the same, without charge in order
to exercise any of Bank's rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity,
or otherwise;
(e) Without notice to Borrower set off and apply to the
Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of Borrower held by Bank, or

rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service
marks, and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it
pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale',

Obligations in whatever manner or order it deems appropriate;
(h) Bank may credit bid and purchase at any public sale,
or at any private sale as permitted by law; and
-22-
(i) Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the

amounts and upon terms which Bank determines to be reasonable; provided Bank may

documents described in Section 4.2 regardless of whether an Event of Default has
occurred. The appointment of Bank as Borrower's attorney in fact, and each and
every one of Bank's rights and powers, being coupled with an interest, is
irrevocable until all of the Obligations have been fully repaid and performed
and Bank's obligation to provide advances hereunder is terminated.
9.3 ACCOUNTS COLLECTION. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Bank may notify any Person owing funds to
Borrower of Bank's security interest in such funds and verify the amount of such

under the Committed Revolving Line as Bank deems necessary to protect Bank from
the exposure created by such failure; or (c) obtain and maintain insurance

action with respect to such policies as Bank deems prudent. Any amounts so paid
or deposited by Bank shall constitute Bank Expenses, shall be immediately due
and payable, and shall bear interest at the then applicable rate hereinabove
provided, and shall be secured by the Collateral. Any payments made by Bank
shall not constitute an agreement by Bank to make similar payments in the future
or a waiver by Bank of any Event of Default under this Agreement.

reasonable banking practices, Bank shall not in any way or manner be liable or

loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by Borrower.

Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative.
Bank shall have all other rights and remedies not expressly set forth herein as
provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Bank of one right
or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Bank of any Event of
Default on Borrower's part shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Bank
shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. No waiver by Bank
shall be effective unless made in a written document signed on behalf of Bank
and then shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which it was given.

protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice
of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement,

In order to induce Silicon to enter into this Agreement and to make
Loans, Borrower represents and warrants to Silicon as follows, and Borrower
covenants that the following representations will continue to be true, and that
Borrower will at all times comply with all of the following covenants:
3.1 CORPORATE EXISTENCE AND AUTHORITY. Borrower, if a corporation,
is and will continue to be, duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation. Borrower is
and will continue to be qualified and licensed to do business in all
jurisdictions in which any failure to do so would have a material adverse effect
on Borrower. The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of this
Agreement, and all other documents contemplated hereby (i) have been duly and
validly authorized, (ii) are enforceable against Borrower in accordance with
their terms (except as enforcement may be limited by equitable principles and by
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to
creditors' rights generally), and (iii) do not violate Borrower's articles or
certificate of incorporation, or Borrower's by-laws, or any law or any material
agreement or instrument which is binding upon Borrower or its property, and (iv)
do not constitute grounds for acceleration of any material indebtedness or
obligation under any material agreement or instrument which is binding upon
Borrower or its property.
3.2 NAME, TRADE NAMES AND STYLES. The name of Borrower set forth
in the heading to this Agreement is its correct name. Listed on the Schedule are
all prior names of Borrower and all of Borrower's present and prior trade names.
Borrower shall give Silicon 30 days' prior written notice before changing its
name or doing business under any other name. Borrower has complied, and will in
the future comply, with all laws relating to the conduct of business under a
fictitious business name.
3.3 PLACE OF BUSINESS, LOCATION OF COLLATERAL. The address set
forth in the heading to this Agreement is Borrower's chief executive office. In
addition, Borrower has places of business and Collateral is located only at the
locations set forth on the Schedule. Borrower will give Silicon at least 30 days
prior written notice before opening any additional place of business, changing
its chief executive office, or moving any of the Collateral to a location other
than Borrower's Address or one of the locations set forth on the Schedule.*
*NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, BORROWER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT
ALL OF BORROWER'S LOCATIONS OUTSIDE OF CALIFORNIA ARE SALES OFFICES ONLY WITH
LITTLE OR NO ASSETS. ADDITIONALLY, DURING THE TERM OF THIS AGREEMENT, BORROWER
SHALL NOT TRANSFER ANY ASSETS TO ANY SUBSIDIARY.
3.4 TITLE TO COLLATERAL; PERMITTED LIENS. Borrower is now, and
will at all times in the future be, the sole owner of all the Collateral, except
for items of Equipment which are leased by Borrower. The Collateral now is and
will remain free and clear of any and all liens, charges, security interests,
-2-
encumbrances and adverse claims, except for Permitted Liens. Silicon now has,
and will continue to have, a first-priority perfected and enforceable security
interest in all of the Collateral, subject only to the Permitted Liens, and
Borrower will at all times defend Silicon and the Collateral against all claims
of others. None of the Collateral now is or will be affixed to any real property
in such a manner, or with such intent, as to become a fixture. Borrower is not
and will not become a lessee under any real property lease pursuant to which the
lessor may obtain any rights in any of the Collateral and no such lease now
prohibits, restrains, impairs or will prohibit, restrain or impair Borrower's
right to remove any Collateral from the leased premises. Whenever any Collateral
is located upon premises in which any third party has an interest (whether as
owner, mortgagee, beneficiary under a deed of trust, lien or otherwise),
Borrower shall, whenever requested by Silicon, use its best efforts to cause
such third party to execute and deliver to Silicon, in form acceptable to
Silicon, such waivers and subordinations as Silicon shall specify, so as to
ensure that Silicon's rights in the Collateral are, and will continue to be,
superior to the rights of any such third party. Borrower will keep in full force
and effect, and will comply with all the terms of, any lease of real property
where any of the Collateral now or in the future may be located.
3.5 MAINTENANCE OF COLLATERAL. Borrower will maintain the
Collateral in good working condition, and Borrower will not use the Collateral
for any unlawful purpose. Borrower will immediately advise Silicon in writing of
any material loss or damage to the Collateral.
3.6 BOOKS AND RECORDS. Borrower has maintained and will maintain
at Borrower's Address complete and accurate books and records, comprising an
accounting system in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
3.7 FINANCIAL CONDITION, STATEMENTS AND REPORTS. All financial
statements now or in the future delivered to Silicon have been, and will be,
prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and now and
in the future will completely and accurately reflect the financial condition of
Borrower, at the times and for the periods therein stated. Between the last date
covered by any such statement provided to Silicon and the date hereof, there has
been no material adverse change in the financial condition or business of
Borrower. Borrower is now and will continue to be solvent.
3.8 TAX RETURNS AND PAYMENTS; PENSION CONTRIBUTIONS. Borrower has
timely filed, and will timely file, all tax returns and reports required by
foreign, federal, state and local law, and Borrower has timely paid, and will
timely pay, all foreign, federal, state and local taxes, assessments, deposits
and contributions now or in the future owed by Borrower. Borrower may, however,
defer payment of any contested taxes, provided that Borrower (i) in good faith
contests Borrower's obligation to pay the taxes by appropriate proceedings
promptly and diligently instituted and conducted, (ii) notifies Silicon in
writing of the commencement of, and any material development in, the
proceedings, and (iii) posts bonds or takes any other steps required to keep the
contested taxes from becoming a lien upon any of the Collateral. Borrower is
unaware of any claims or adjustments proposed for any of Borrower's prior tax
years which could result in additional taxes becoming due and payable by
Borrower. Borrower has paid, and shall continue to pay all amounts necessary to
fund all present and future pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation
plans in accordance with their terms, and Borrower has not and will not withdraw
from participation in, permit partial or complete termination of, or permit the
occurrence of any other event with respect to, any such plan which could result
in any liability of Borrower, including any liability to the Pension Benefit
Guaranty Corporation or its successors or any other governmental agency.
Borrower shall, at all times, utilize the services of an outside payroll service
providing for the automatic deposit of all payroll taxes payable by Borrower.
3.9 COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. Borrower has complied, and will comply,
in all material respects, with all provisions of all foreign, federal, state and
local laws and regulations relating to Borrower, including, but not limited to,
those relating to Borrower's ownership of real or personal property, the conduct
and licensing of Borrower's business, and all environmental matters.
3.10 LITIGATION. Except as disclosed in the Schedule, there is no
claim, suit, litigation, proceeding or investigation pending or (to best of
Borrower's knowledge) threatened by or against or affecting Borrower in any
court or before any governmental agency (or any basis therefor known to
Borrower) which may result, either separately or in the aggregate, in any
material adverse change in the financial condition or business of Borrower, or
in any material impairment in the ability of Borrower to carry on its business
in substantially the same manner as it is now being conducted. Borrower will
promptly inform Silicon in writing of any claim, proceeding,
-3-
litigation or investigation in the future threatened or instituted by or against
Borrower involving any single claim of $50,000 or more, or involving $100,000 or
more in the aggregate.
3.11 USE OF PROCEEDS. All proceeds of all Loans shall be used
solely for lawful business purposes. Borrower is not purchasing or carrying any
"margin stock" (as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System) and no part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used to
purchase or carry any "margin stock" or to extend credit to others for the
purpose of purchasing or carrying any "margin stock."
4. RECEIVABLES.
4.1 REPRESENTATIONS RELATING TO RECEIVABLES. Borrower represents
and warrants to Silicon as follows: Each Receivable with respect to which Loans
are requested by Borrower shall, on the date each Loan is requested and made,
(i) represent an undisputed bona fide existing unconditional obligation of the
Account Debtor created by the sale, delivery, and acceptance of goods or the
rendition of services in the ordinary course of Borrower's business, and (ii)
meet the Minimum Eligibility Requirements set forth in Section 8 below.
4.2 REPRESENTATIONS RELATING TO DOCUMENTS AND LEGAL COMPLIANCE.
Borrower represents and warrants to Silicon as follows: All statements made and
all unpaid balances appearing in all invoices, instruments and other documents
evidencing the Receivables are and shall be true and correct and all such
invoices, instruments and other documents and all of Borrower's books and
records are and shall be genuine and in all respects what they purport to be,
and all signatories and endorsers have the capacity to contract. All sales and
other transactions underlying or giving rise to each Receivable shall fully
comply with all applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations. All
signatures and endorsements on all documents, instruments, and agreements
relating to all Receivables are and shall be genuine, and all such documents,
instruments and agreements are and shall be legally enforceable in accordance
with their terms.
4.3 SCHEDULES AND DOCUMENTS RELATING TO RECEIVABLES. Borrower
shall deliver to Silicon transaction reports and loan requests, schedules and
assignments of all Receivables, and schedules of collections, all on Silicon's
standard forms; provided, however, that Borrower's failure to execute and
deliver the same shall not affect or limit Silicon's security interest and other
rights in all of Borrower's Receivables, nor shall Silicon's failure to advance
or lend against a specific Receivable affect or limit Silicon's security
interest and other rights therein. Loan requests received after 12:00 Noon will
not be considered by Silicon until the next Business Day. Together with each
such schedule and assignment, or later if requested by Silicon, Borrower shall
furnish Silicon with copies (or, at Silicon's request, originals) of all
contracts, orders, invoices, and other similar documents, and all original
shipping instructions, delivery receipts, bills of lading, and other evidence of
delivery, for any goods the sale or disposition of which gave rise to such
Receivables, and Borrower warrants the genuineness of all of the foregoing.
Borrower shall also furnish to Silicon an aged accounts receivable trial balance
in such form and at such intervals as Silicon shall request. In addition,
Borrower shall deliver to Silicon the originals of all instruments, chattel
paper, security agreements, guarantees and other documents and property

the same form as received, with all necessary indorsements, all of which shall
be with recourse. Borrower shall also provide Silicon with copies of all credit
memos within two days after the date issued.
4.4 COLLECTION OF RECEIVABLES. Borrower shall have the right to
collect all Receivables, unless and until a Default or an Event of Default has
occurred. Borrower shall hold all payments on, and proceeds of, Receivables in
trust for Silicon, and Borrower shall immediately deliver all such payments and
proceeds to Silicon in their original form, duly endorsed in blank, to be
applied to the Obligations in such order as Silicon shall determine. Silicon
may, in its discretion, require that all proceeds of Collateral be deposited by
Borrower into a lockbox account, or such other "blocked account" as Silicon may
specify, pursuant to a blocked account agreement in such form as Silicon may
specify. Silicon or its designee may, at any time, notify Account Debtors that
the Receivables have been assigned to Silicon.
4.5. REMITTANCE OF PROCEEDS. All proceeds arising from the
disposition of any Collateral shall be delivered, in kind, by Borrower to
Silicon in the original form in which received by Borrower not later than the
following Business Day after receipt by Borrower, to be applied to the
Obligations in such order as Silicon shall determine; provided that, if no
Default or Event of Default has occurred, Borrower shall not be obligated to
remit to Silicon the proceeds of the sale of worn out or obsolete equipment
disposed of by Borrower in good faith in an arm's length transaction for an
aggregate purchase price of
-4-
$25,000 or less (for all such transactions in any fiscal year). Borrower agrees
that it will not commingle proceeds of Collateral with any of Borrower's other
funds or property, but will hold such proceeds separate and apart from such
other funds and property and in an express trust for Silicon. Nothing in this
Section limits the restrictions on disposition of Collateral set forth elsewhere
in this Agreement.
4.6 DISPUTES. Borrower shall notify Silicon promptly of all
disputes or claims relating to Receivables. Borrower shall not forgive
(completely or partially), compromise or settle any Receivable for less than
payment in full, or agree to do any of the foregoing, except that Borrower may
do so, provided that: (i) Borrower does so in good faith, in a commercially
reasonable manner, in the ordinary course of business, and in arm's length
transactions, which are reported to Silicon on the regular reports provided to
Silicon; (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and
(iii) taking into account all such discounts settlements and forgiveness, the
total outstanding Loans will not exceed the Credit Limit. Silicon may, at any
time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, settle or adjust disputes or
claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts and upon terms which Silicon
considers advisable in its reasonable credit judgment and, in all cases, Silicon
shall credit Borrower's Loan account with only the net amounts received by
Silicon in payment of any Receivables.
4.7 RETURNS. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, if any Account Debtor returns any Inventory to Borrower in the
ordinary course of its business, Borrower shall promptly determine the reason
for such return and promptly issue a credit memorandum to the Account Debtor in
the appropriate amount (sending a copy to Silicon). In the event any attempted
return occurs after the occurrence of any Event of Default, Borrower shall (i)
hold the returned Inventory in trust for Silicon, (ii) segregate all returned
Inventory from all of Borrower's other property, (iii) conspicuously label the
returned Inventory as Silicon's property, and (iv) immediately notify Silicon of
the return of any Inventory, specifying the reason for such return, the location
and condition of the returned Inventory, and on Silicon's request deliver such
returned Inventory to Silicon.
4.8 VERIFICATION. Silicon may, from time to time, verify directly
with the respective Account Debtors the validity, amount and other matters
relating to the Receivables, by means of mail, telephone or otherwise, either in
the name of Borrower or Silicon or such other name as Silicon may choose.
4.9 NO LIABILITY. Silicon shall not under any circumstances be
responsible or liable for any shortage or discrepancy in, damage to, or loss or
destruction of, any goods, the sale or other disposition of which gives rise to
a Receivable, or for any error, act, omission, or delay of any kind occurring in
the settlement, failure to settle, collection or failure to collect any
Receivable, or for settling any Receivable in good faith for less than the full
amount thereof, nor shall Silicon be deemed to be responsible for any of
Borrower's obligations under any contract or agreement giving rise to a
Receivable. Nothing herein shall, however, relieve Silicon from liability for
its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
5. ADDITIONAL DUTIES OF BORROWER.
5.1 FINANCIAL AND OTHER COVENANTS. Borrower shall at all times
comply with the financial and other covenants set forth in the Schedule.
5.2 INSURANCE. Borrower shall, at all times insure all of the
tangible personal property Collateral and carry such other business insurance,
with insurers reasonably acceptable to Silicon, in such form and amounts as
Silicon may reasonably require, and Borrower shall provide evidence of such
insurance to Silicon, so that Silicon is satisfied that such insurance is, at
all times, in full force and effect. All such insurance policies shall name
Silicon as an additional loss payee, and shall contain a lenders loss payee
endorsement in form reasonably acceptable to Silicon. Upon receipt of the
proceeds of any such insurance, Silicon shall apply such proceeds in reduction
of the Obligations as Silicon shall determine in its sole discretion, except
that, provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
Silicon shall release to Borrower insurance proceeds with respect to Equipment
totaling less than $100,000, which shall be utilized by Borrower for the
replacement of the Equipment with respect to which the insurance proceeds were
paid. Silicon may require reasonable assurance that the insurance proceeds so

5.4 ACCESS TO COLLATERAL, BOOKS AND RECORDS. At reasonable times,
and on one Business Day's notice, Silicon, or its agents, shall have the right
to inspect the Collateral, and the right to audit and copy Borrower's books and
records. Silicon shall take reasonable steps to keep confidential all
information obtained in any such inspection or audit, but Silicon shall have the
right to disclose any such information to its auditors, regulatory agencies, and
attorneys, and pursuant to any subpoena or other legal process. The foregoing
inspections and audits shall be at Borrower's expense and the charge therefor
shall be $650 per person per day (or such higher amount as shall represent
Silicon's then current standard charge for the same), plus reasonable out of
pocket expenses. Borrower will not enter into any agreement with any accounting
firm, service bureau or third party to store Borrower's books or records at any
location other than Borrower's Address, without first obtaining Silicon's
written consent, which may be conditioned upon such accounting firm, service
bureau or other third party agreeing to give Silicon the same rights with
respect to access to books and records and related rights as Silicon has under
this Loan Agreement.

Schedule, Borrower shall not, without Silicon's prior written consent, do any of

Borrower hereby authorizes Silicon without judicial process to enter onto any of

cause a custodian to remain on the premises in exclusive control thereof,
without charge for so long as Silicon deems it reasonably necessary in order to
complete the enforcement of its rights under this Agreement or any other
agreement; provided, however, that should Silicon seek to take possession of any
of the Collateral by Court process, Borrower hereby irrevocably waives: (i) any
bond and any surety or security relating thereto required by any statute, court
rule or otherwise as an incident to such possession; (ii) any demand for
possession prior to the commencement of any suit or action to recover possession

announcement at the time scheduled for sale. Silicon shall have the right to
conduct such disposition on Borrower's premises without charge, for such time or
times as Silicon deems reasonable, or on Silicon's premises, or elsewhere and
the Collateral need not be located at the place of disposition. Silicon may
directly or through any affiliated company purchase or lease any Collateral at
any such public disposition, and if permissible under applicable law, at any
private disposition. Any sale or other disposition of Collateral shall not
relieve Borrower of any liability Borrower may have if any Collateral is
defective as to title or physical condition or otherwise at the time of sale;

comprising Collateral and, in connection therewith, Borrower irrevocably
authorizes Silicon to endorse or sign Borrower's name on all collections,
receipts, instruments and other documents, to take possession

respect to any item of the Collateral or proceeds thereof, and, in Silicon's

and shall bear interest at a rate equal to the highest interest rate applicable
to any of the Obligations. Without limiting any of Silicon's rights and
remedies, from and after the occurrence of any Event of Default, the interest
rate applicable to the Obligations shall be increased by an additional four
percent per annum.

following, in Borrower's name or otherwise, but Silicon agrees to exercise the
following powers in a commercially reasonable manner: (a) Execute on behalf of
Borrower any documents that Silicon may, in its sole discretion, deem advisable

present and future agreements; (b) Execute on behalf of Borrower any document

Obligations, shall be payable on demand, and shall bear interest at a rate equal
to the
-9-
highest interest rate applicable to any of the Obligations. In no event shall

rights under this Agreement be deemed to indicate that Silicon is in control of
the business, management or properties of Borrower.

the Obligations, in such order as Silicon shall determine in its sole
discretion. Any surplus shall be paid to Borrower or other persons legally
entitled thereto; Borrower shall remain liable to Silicon for any deficiency.
If, Silicon, in its sole discretion, directly or indirectly enters into a
deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of
Collateral, Silicon shall have the option, exercisable at any time, in its sole

exercise by Silicon of one or more of its rights or remedies shall not be deemed
an election, nor bar Silicon from subsequent exercise or partial exercise of any
other rights or remedies. The failure or delay of Silicon to exercise any rights
or remedies shall not operate as a waiver thereof, but all rights and remedies
shall continue in full force and effect until all of the Obligations have been
fully paid and performed.

force and effect.
9.7 INTEGRATION. This Agreement and such other written agreements,
documents and instruments as may be executed in connection herewith are the

NO ORAL UNDERSTANDINGS, REPRESENTATIONS OR AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES WHICH

compliance therewith. Any waiver of any default shall not waive or affect any
other default, whether prior or subsequent, and whether or not similar. None of
the provisions of this Agreement or any other agreement now or in the future
executed by Borrower and delivered to Silicon shall be deemed to have been

delivered to Borrower. Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest and
notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, release,
compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any commercial paper,

losses or damages, of any kind whatsoever, made, claimed, incurred or suffered
by Borrower or any other party through the ordinary negligence of Silicon, or
any, of its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or any other
Person affiliated with or representing Silicon, but nothing herein shall relieve

be waived or amended, except in a writing executed by Borrower and a duly
authorized officer of Silicon.
9.11 TIME OF ESSENCE. Time is of the essence in the performance by
Borrower of each and every obligation under this Agreement.
9.12 ATTORNEYS FEES AND COSTS. Borrower shall reimburse Silicon for
all reasonable attorneys' fees and all filing, recording, search, title
insurance, appraisal, audit, and other reasonable costs incurred by Silicon,
pursuant to, or in connection with, or relating to this Agreement (whether or
not a lawsuit is filed), including, but not limited to, any reasonable

other predicated on a breach of this Agreement, the prevailing party in such
action shall be entitled to recover its reasonable costs and attorneys' fees,
including (but not limited to) reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in
the enforcement of, execution upon or defense of any order, decree, award or
judgment. All attorneys' fees and costs to which Silicon may be entitled
pursuant to this Paragraph shall immediately become part of Borrower's
Obligations, shall be due on demand, and shall bear interest at a rate equal to
the highest interest rate applicable to any of the Obligations.
9.13 BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT. The provisions of this Agreement shall
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors, assigns,
heirs, beneficiaries and representatives of Borrower and Silicon; provided,
however, that Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights under this
Agreement without the prior written consent of Silicon, and any prohibited
assignment shall be void. No consent by Silicon to any assignment shall release
Borrower from its liability for the Obligations.
9.14 JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY. If Borrower consists of more than
one Person, their liability shall be joint and several, and the compromise of
any claim with, or the re-lease of, any Borrower shall not constitute a
compromise with, or a release of, any other Borrower.

Borrower against Silicon, its directors, officers, employees, agents,
accountants or attorneys, based upon, arising from, or relating to this Loan

BORROWER: DIGIRAD CORPORATION

This Schedule forms an integral part of the Loan and Security Agreement between
Silicon Valley Bank and the above-borrower of even date.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(Section 1.1):
An amount not to exceed the lesser of a total of $4,300,000 at
any one time outstanding (the "Maximum Credit Limit"), or the
sum of (a) and (b) below:
(a) 75% (the "Percentage Advance Rate") of the
amount of Borrower's Eligible Receivables
(as defined in Section 8 above), plus
(b) an amount not to exceed the lesser of:
(1) 25% of the value of Borrower's
Eligible Inventory (as defined in
Section 8 above), calculated at the
lower of cost or market value and
determined on a first-in, first-out
basis, or
(2) 50% of the amount of Borrower's
Eligible Receivables (as defined in
Section 8 above), or
(3) $300,000.
The foregoing Percentage Advance Rate is typically based on
the quality of the Receivables and attendant Dilution as
follows: up to 85% Percentage Advance Rate with 5% Dilution;
up to 80% Percentage Advance Rate with Dilution over 5 % but
less than 10%; up to 75% Percentage
1
Advance Rate when Dilution is over 10% but less than 15%. If
Dilution exceeds 15%, a reserve is established for the
dilution factor rounded up to the nearest whole number then
multiplied by a factor of up to 75%.
As used above, "Dilution" means all deductions from
Receivables by Account Debtors of Borrower, other than those
arising from payment thereof, and includes without limitation
deductions arising from advertising and other allowances,
credit memos, returns, bad debts, and all other deductions, as
determined by Silicon's audit and for such period as Silicon
shall determine. Changes in the Percentage Advance Rate based
on Dilution shall go into effect when Silicon has determined
the amount of the Dilution and given written notice to the
Borrower of the change in the Percentage Advance Rate. If, as
a result of a decrease in the Percentage Advance Rate, the
total Loans and other Obligations exceed the Credit Limit, the
Borrower shall pay the excess to Silicon in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement.
Moreover, prior to any increase in the Percentage Advance Rate
going into effect, the delinquency rate with respect to the
Borrower's Receivables must be satisfactory to Silicon in its
sole discretion.

INTEREST RATE (Section 1.2):
A rate equal to the "Prime Rate" in effect from time to time,
plus 2.0% per annum. Interest shall be calculated on the basis
of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.
"Prime Rate" means the rate announced from time to time by
Silicon as its "prime rate;" it is a base rate upon which
other rates charged by Silicon are based, and it is not
necessarily the best rate available at Silicon. The interest
rate applicable to the Obligations shall change on each date
there is a change in the Prime Rate.

would materially impair or conflict with Assignor's obligations hereunder
without Assignee's prior written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld. Assignor shall not permit the inclusion in any material
contract to which it becomes a party of any provisions that could or might in
any way prevent the creation of a security interest in Assignor's rights and
interest in any property included within the definition of the Collateral
acquired under such contracts, except that certain contracts may contain
anti-assignment provisions that could in effect prohibit the creation of a
security interest in such contracts.
-4-
(p) Upon any executive officer of Assignor obtaining
actual knowledge thereof, Assignor will promptly notify Assignee in writing of
any event that materially adversely affects the value of any material
Collateral, the ability of Assignor to dispose of any material collateral or the
rights and remedies of Assignee in relation thereto, including the levy of any
legal process against any of the Collateral.
4. ASSIGNEE'S RIGHTS. Assignee shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to take, at Assignor's sole expense, any actions that Assignor is

Assignee for all reasonable costs and reasonable expenses incurred in the

Collateral, and to inspect the products and quality control records relating
thereto upon reasonable written notice to Assignor and as often as may be
reasonably requested, but not more than one (1) in every six (6) months;
provided, however, nothing herein shall entitle Assignee access to Assignor's
trade secrets and other proprietary information.

States, all such instruments, including, appropriate financing and continuation
statements and collateral agreements and filings with the United States Patent

as may reasonably be deemed necessary or advisable, or as requested by Assignee,
to perfect Assignee's security interest in all Copyrights, Patents and
Trademarks and otherwise to carry out the intent and purposes of this Collateral
Assignment, or for assuming and confirming to Assignee the grant or perfection
of a security interest in all Collateral.
(b) Upon an Event of Default, Assignor hereby irrevocably
appoints Assignee as Assignor's attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the
place and stead of Assignor and in the name of Assignor, Assignee or otherwise,

to do so, to take any action and to execute any instrument which Assignee may
deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Collateral
Assignment, including:
(i) To modify, in its sole discretion, this
Collateral Assignment without first obtaining Assignor's approval of or
signature to such modification by amending Exhibit A-1, Exhibit A-2, Exhibit
A-3, Exhibit B and Exhibit C, thereof, as appropriate, to include reference to
any right, title or interest in
-5-
any Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks acquired by Assignor after the execution
hereof or to delete any reference to any right, title or interest in any
Copyrights, Patents or Trademarks in which Assignor no longer has or claims any
right, title or interest; and
(ii) To file, in its sole discretion, one or more
financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto, relative to any of

the right to require Assignor to assemble the Collateral and any tangible
property in which Assignee has a security interest and to make it available to

reasonably necessary to permit Assignee to exercise its rights and remedies upon
the occurrence of an Event of Default. Assignor will pay any expenses (including

result of or in any way arising out of, following or consequential to

reasonable expenses), except for losses arising form or out of Assignee's gross
negligence or willful misconduct.
10. RELEASE. At such time as Assignor shall completely satisfy all
of the obligations secured hereunder, Assignee shall execute and deliver to
Assignor all assignments and other instruments as may be reasonably necessary or
proper to terminate Assignee's security interest in the Collateral, subject to
any disposition of the Collateral which may have been made by Assignee pursuant
to this Agreement. For the purpose of this Agreement, the obligations secured
hereunder shall be deemed to continue if Assignor enters into any bankruptcy or
similar proceeding at a time when any amount paid to Assignee could be ordered
to be repaid as a preference or pursuant to a similar theory, and shall continue
until it is finally determined that no such repayment can be ordered.*
-6-

COLLATERAL IS SUBJECT TO RELEASE UPON THE SATISFACTION BY ASSIGNOR OF THE
CONDITIONS PROVIDED FOR IN SECTION 2.1 OF THE LOAN AGREEMENT.
11. NO WAIVER. No course of dealing between Assignor and Assignee,
nor any failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising, on the part of
Assignee, any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement or under the Loan
Agreement or any other agreement, shall operate as a waiver. No single or
partial exercise of any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement or under
the Loan Agreement or any other agreement by Assignee shall preclude any other
or further exercise of such right, power, or privilege or the exercise of any
other right, power, or privilege by Assignee.

with respect to the Collateral whether established by this Agreement, the Loan

exercise, nor any delay in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder
shall operate as a waiver thereof.

brought by either party hereto against the other party, the prevailing party
shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys fees, costs and disbursements.
15. AMENDMENTS. This Assignment may be amended only by a written
instrument signed by both parties hereto. To the extent that any provision of
this Agreement conflicts with any provision of the Loan Agreement, the provision
giving Assignee greater rights or remedies shall govern, it being understood
that the purpose of this Agreement is to add to, and not detract from, the
rights granted to Assignee under the Loan Agreement. This Agreement, the Loan
Agreement, and the documents relating thereto comprise the entire agreement of
the parties with respect to the matters addressed in this Agreement.
16. SEVERABILITY. The provisions of this Agreement are severable.
If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable in whole or
in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforccability shall
affect only such provision, or part thereof, in such jurisdiction, and shall not
in any manner affect such provision or part thereof in any other jurisdiction,
or any other provision of this Agreement in any jurisdiction.

governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard for choice of
law provisions. Assignor and Assignee consent to the nonexclusive jurisdiction
of any state or federal court located in Orange County, California.

received or received pursuant to this Assignment except that the disclosure of

LEASE NUMBER
MARCAP CORPORATION
Area Code 312/641-0233 Facsimile Machine: 312/425-2441
EQUIPMENT LEASE
Lease date as of OCTOBER 1, 2000 between MARCAP CORPORATION a Delaware
corporation having its principal office at 20 North Wacker Drive, Suite 2150,
Chicago, Illinois 60606 ("Leassor"), and ORION IMAGING SYSTEMS, INC., a
CORPORATION organized under the laws of the state of DELAWARE and having its
principal office at 9350 TRADE PLACE, SAN DIEGO, CA 92126 ("Lessee").
1. LEASE. Subject to the terms hereof, Lessor hereby leases to Lessee, and
Lessee hereby leases from Lessor, the equipment ("Equipment") described on
Equipment Schedules ("Schedule or Schedules") to this Lease executed from
time to time by Lessor and Lessee, all of which are made a part hereof. For
the purposes of this Equipment Lease, each Schedule relating to one or more
items of Equipment shall be deemed to incorporate all of the terms and
provisions of this Equipment Lease.
2. TERMS. The term of Lease for the items of Equipment included on any
Schedule shall commence on the date such items are accepted by Lessee
("Commencement Date") and, subject to the terms hereof, shall continue for
the period of time set forth on said Schedule.
3. RENTAL. Lessee shall pay to Lessor total rentals for the Equipment
described on each Schedule equal to the product of (i) the periodic rent
payment and (ii) the number of rent payments specified on such Schedule.
Except as otherwise set forth in the Schedule, rent payments shall be due
each month in advance beginning with the Commencement Date. All rent shall be
paid to Lessor at 20 North Wacker Drive, Suite 2720, Chicago, Illinois 60606,
or at such other address as Lessor may specify, without notice or demand and
without abatement, deduction or setoff. Rent and any other payments due
hereunder not made within ten (10) days of the due date shall be subject to a
service charge equal to the lesser of (i) five percent (5%) of the overdue
payment, (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law.
4. ERRORS IN ESTIMATED COST; OMISSIONS. The rentals set forth on each
Schedule are based upon the estimated costs of Equipment and shall be
adjusted proportionately if the actual cost differs from the estimate. Lessee
authorizes Lessor, with respect to each Schedule, (i) to so adjust the rent
once the actual cost is known, (ii) to insert on such Schedule serial numbers
or other more specific descriptions of the Equipment. "Cost, as used herein,
means the total cost of the Lessor of purchasing and causing delivery and
installation of the Equipment, including taxes, transportation and any other
charges paid by Lessor.
5. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES. LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT: (i) THE EQUIPMENT IS
A SIZE, DESIGN, CAPACITY AND MANUFACTURE SELECTED BY LESSEE; (ii) LESSOR IS
NOT A MANUFACTURER NOR A DEALER IN PROPERTY OF SUCH KIND; (iii) NEITHER THE
VENDOR NOR ANY REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY VENDOR OR ANY MANUFACTURER OF THE
EQUIPMENT IS AN AGENT OF LESSOR OR AUTHORIZED TO WAIVE OR ALTER ANY TERM OR
CONDITION OF THIS LEASE; AND (iv) LESSOR HAS NOT MADE AND DOES NOT HEREBY
MAKE ANY WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER,
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE CONDITION, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR
ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OF THE EQUIPMENT. No defect in, unfitness of or an
inability of Lessee to use any Equipment, howsoever caused, shall relieve
Lessee from its obligation to pay rentals or from any other obligations.
Lessor shall not in any event be responsible to Lessee or anyone claiming
through Lessee for any damages, direct, consequential, or otherwise,
resulting from the deliver, installation, use, operation, performance or
condition of any Equipment, or any delay or failure by any vendor in
delivering and/or installing any Equipment or performing any service for
Lessee. Nothing herein shall be construed as depriving Lessee of whatever
rights Lessee may have against any vendor of the Equipment, and Lessor hereby
authorizes Lessee at Lessee's expense, to assert for Lessor's account during
the term of this Lease, all of Lessor's rights under any warranty or promise
given by a vendor and relating to Equipment so long as Lessee is not in
default hereunder. Lessee may communicate with the vendor supplying the
Equipment and receive an accurate and complete statement of those promises
and warranties, including any disclaimers and limitations of them or of
remedies.
6. ACCEPTANCE. Lessee shall inspect each item of Equipment within 72 hours
after delivery or, where applicable, installation thereof. Unless Lessee
within such period of time gives written notice to Lessor and the vendor
specifying any defect in or other proper objection to an item of Equipment,
it shall be conclusively presumed between Lessor and Lessee that Lessee has
fully inspected such Equipment, that such Equipment is in full compliance
with the terms of this Lease, that such Equipment is in good condition
(operating and otherwise) and repair, and that Lessee has unconditionally
accepted such Equipment. Forthwith after acceptance of each item of
Equipment, Lessee shall execute and deliver to Lessor, Lessor's form of
Delivery and Acceptance Acknowledgment.
1
7. MAINTENANCE. Lessee will maintain the Equipment in good operating order
and appearance, protect the Equipment from deterioration, other than normal
wear and tear, and will not use the Equipment for any purpose other than that
for which it was designed. Lessee will maintain in force a standard
maintenance contract with the manufacturer of the Equipment or a party
authorized by the manufacturer and acceptable to the Lessor to perform such
maintenance (the "maintenance contractor"), and upon request will provide
Lessor with a complete copy of that contract. Lessee's obligation regarding
the maintenance of the Equipment will include, without limitation, all
maintenance and repair recommended or advised either by the manufacturer,
government agencies, or regulatory bodies and those commonly performed by
prudent business and/or professional practice. Upon return of the Equipment,
Lessee will provide a letter from the maintenance contractor certifying that
the Equipment meets all current specifications of the manufacturer, is in
compliance with all pertinent governmental or regulatory rules, laws or
guidelines for its operation or use, is qualified for the maintenance
contractor's standard maintenance contract and is at then current release,
revision and engineering change levels. Lessee agrees to pay any costs
necessary for the manufacturer to bring the Equipment to then current
release, revision and engineering change levels, and to re-certify the
Equipment as eligible for such maintenance contract at the expiration of the
lease term. The lease term will continue upon the same terms and conditions
until recertification has been obtained.
8. SECURITY DEPOSIT. The security deposit, if any, specified on each
Schedule shall secure the full and faithful performance of all agreements,
obligations and warranties of Lessee hereunder, including, but not limited
to, the agreement of Lessee to return the Equipment upon the expiration or
earlier termination of this Lease in the condition specified. Such deposit
shall not excuse the performance of any such agreements, obligations or
warranties of Lessee or prevent a default. Lessor may (but need not) apply
all or any part of such security deposit toward discharge of any overdue
obligation of Lessee. To the extent any portion of the security deposit is so
applied by Lessor, Lessee shall forthwith restore the security deposit to its
full amount. If upon the expiration of the term of this Lease, Lessee shall
have fully complied with all of its agreements, obligations and warranties
hereunder, any unused portion of such security deposit will be refunded to
Lessee. Lessor shall not be obligated to pay interest on the security deposit.
9. INSURANCE. Lessee, at its expense, shall keep the Equipment insured
against all risk of loss or physical damage (including comprehensive boiler
and machinery coverage and earthquake and flood insurance if Lessor
determines that such events could occur in the area where the Equipment is
located) for the full replacement value of the Equipment. Lessee shall
further provide and maintain comprehensive public liability insurance against
claims for bodily injury, death and/or property damage arising out of the
use, ownership, possession, operation or condition of the Equipment, together
with such other insurance as may be required by law or reasonably requested
by Lessor. All said insurance shall name both Lessor and Lessee as parties
insured and shall be in form and amount and with insurers satisfaction to
Lessor, and Lessee shall furnish to Lessor certified copies or certificates
of the policies of such insurance and each renewal thereof. Each insurer must
agree, by endorsement upon the policy or policies issued by it, that it will
give Lessor not less than 30 days written notice before such policy or
policies are canceled or altered, and, under the physical damage insurance,
(a) that losses shall be payable solely to Lessor, and (b) that no act or
omission of Lessee or any of its officers, agents, employees or
representatives shall affect the obligation of the insurer to pay the full
amount of any loss. Lessee hereby irrevocably authorizes Lessor to make,
settle and adjust claims under such policy or policies of physical damage
insurance and to endorse the name of Lessee on any check or other item of
payment for the proceeds thereof; it being understood, however, that unless
otherwise directed in writing by Lessor, Lessee shall make and file timely
all claims under such policy or policies, and unless Lessee is then in
default, Lessee may, with the prior written approval of Lessor (which will
not be unreasonably withheld) settle and adjust all such claims.
10. RISK OF LOSS. As used herein, the term "Event of Loss" shall mean any of
the following events with respect to any item of the Equipment: (a) the
actual or constructive total loss of such Equipment; (b) the loss, theft, or
destruction of such Equipment or damage to such Equipment to such extent as
shall make repair thereof uneconomical or shall render such Equipment
permanently unfit for normal use for any reason whatsoever; or (c) the
condemnation, confiscation, requisition, seizure, forfeiture or other taking
of title to or use of such Equipment. Except as expressly hereinafter
provided, the occurrence of any Event of Loss or other damage to or
deprivation of use of any Equipment, howsoever occasioned, shall not reduce
or impair any obligation of Lessee hereunder, and, without limiting the
foregoing, shall not result in any abatement or reduction in rentals
whatsoever. Lessee hereby assumes and shall bear, from the time such risk
passes to Lessor from the vendor until expiration or termination of the lease
term and return of the Equipment to Lessor, the entire risk of any Event of
Loss or any other damage to or deprivation of use of the Equipment, howsoever
occasioned.
Upon the occurrence of any damage to any Equipment not constituting an Event of
Loss, Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, shall promptly repair and restore
such Equipment so as to return such Equipment to substantially the same
condition as existed prior to the date of such occurrence (assuming such
Equipment was then in the condition required by this Lease). Provided that
Lessee is not then in default hereunder, upon receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to Lessor of completion of such repairs and restoration in
accordance with the terms of this Lease, Lessor will apply any insurance
proceeds received by Lessor on account of such occurrence to the cost of such
repairs and restoration; it being understood, however, that if at such time
Lessee shall be in default hereunder, Lessor may, at its option, retain any part
or all of such proceeds and apply same to any obligations of Lessee to Lessor.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Loss, Lessee shall immediately notify Lessor
in writing of such occurrence, fully informing Lessor of all details with
respect thereto, and, on or before the first to occur of (i) 30 days after the
date upon which such Event of Loss occurs, or (ii) 5 days after the date on
which either Lessor shall receive any proceeds of insurance in respect of such
Event of Loss or any underwriter of insurance on the Equipment shall advise
Lessor or Lessee in writing that it disclaims liability in respect of such Event
of Loss, if such be the case, Lessee shall pay to Lessor an amount equal to the
sum of (a) accrued but unpaid rent and other sums due under the Lease plus (b)
the present value of all future rentals reserved in the Lease and contracted to
be paid over the unexpired term discounted at 6% per annum plus (c) the present
value of Lessor's residual value of the Equipment as of the expiration of the
term discounted at 6% per annum (the "Stipulated Loss Value"), less the amount
of any insurance proceeds or condemnation or similar award by a governmental
authority then actually received by Lessor on account of such Event of Loss. No
delay or refusal by any insurance company or governmental authority in making
payment on account of such Event of Loss shall extend or otherwise affect the
obligations of Lessee hereunder. Lessee shall continue to pay all rentals and
other sums due hereunder up to and including the date upon which the Stipulated
Loss Value is actually received in full by Lessor, whereupon this Lease with
respect to such Equipment shall terminate and all rentals reserved hereunder
with respect to such Equipment from the date such payment is received in full by
Lessor, as aforesaid, to what would have been the end of the term hereof, shall
abate. No such payment shall affect Lessee's obligations with
2
respect to Equipment not subject to an Event of Loss. After receipt by Lessor
of all sums due hereunder, Lessor will upon request of Lessee transfer its
interest, if any, in such Equipment to Lessee on an "as is, where is" basis
and without warranty by or recourse to Lessor.
The proceeds of insurance in respect of an Event of Loss and any award on
account of any condemnation or other taking of any Equipment by a governmental
authority shall be paid to Lessor and applied by Lessor against the obligation
of Lessee to pay Lessor the Stipulated Loss Value of such Equipment (or, if
Lessee shall have first paid the Stipulated Loss Value in full, shall be
promptly paid over by Lessor to Lessee up to the extent necessary to reimburse
Lessee for payment of the Stipulated Loss Value); and the balance, if any, of
such proceeds or award shall be paid over promptly by Lessor to Lessee if Lessee
is not then in default hereunder. If Lessee is in default hereunder, Lessor may
at its option apply all or any part of such proceeds to any obligations of
Lessee to Lessor.
11. INDEMNITY. Lessee shall indemnify and hold Lessor harmless from and
against any and all claims, costs, expenses (including attorneys' fees)
losses and liabilities of whatsoever nature arising out of or occasioned by
or in connection with (i) the purchase, delivery, installation, acceptance,
rejection, ownership, leasing, possession, use, operation, condition or
return of any Equipment including, without limitation, any claim alleging
latent or other defects and any claim arising out of strict liability in
tort, or (ii) any breach by Lessee of any of its obligations hereunder.
12. TAXES. Lessee shall pay as and when due, and indemnify and hold Lessor
harmless from and against, all present and future taxes and other
governmental charges (including, without limitation, sales, use, leasing,
stamp and personal property taxes and license and registration fees), and
amounts in lieu of such taxes and charges and any penalties and interest on
any of the foregoing, imposed, levied or based upon, in connection with or as
a result of the purchase, ownership, delivery, leasing, possession or use of
the Equipment or the exercise by Lessee of any option hereunder, or based
upon or measured by rentals or receipts with respect to this Lease. Lessee
shall not, however, be obligated to pay any taxes on or measured by Lessor's
net income. Lessee authorizes Lessor to add to the amount of each rental
installment any sales or leasing tax that may be imposed on or measured by
such rental installment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless and until
Lessor notifies Lessee in writing to the contrary, Lessor will file all
personal property tax returns covering the Equipment and will pay the
personal property taxes levied or assessed thereon. Lessee, upon receipt of
invoice, will promptly pay to Lessor, as additional rent, an amount equal to
the lessor of (i) property taxes so paid by Lessor plus the cost incurred by
Lessor if Lessor elects to contest such tax, or (ii) the original property
tax assessment.
If not thereby subjecting the Equipment to forfeiture or sale, Lessee may at its
expense contest in good faith, by appropriate proceedings, the validity and/or
amount of any of the taxes or other governmental charges described above,
provided that prior written notice of any such contest shall be given to Lessor
together with security satisfactory to Lessor for the payment of the amount
being contested and provided further that Lessor has not contested such tax.
13. NOTICE; INSPECTION. Lessee shall give Lessor immediate notice of any
attachment, judicial process, lien, encumbrance or claim affecting the
Equipment, any loss or damage to the Equipment or material accident or
casualty arising out of the use, operation or condition of the Equipment, and
any change in the residency or principal place of business of Lessee or any
guarantor of Lessee's obligations hereunder ("Guarantor"). Lessor may, (but
need not), for the purpose of inspection, at all reasonable business hours,
enter from time to time upon any premises where the Equipment is located.
14. ALTERATIONS. Lessee shall not make or permit any changes or alterations
to the Equipment without Lessor's prior written consent. All accessories,
replacements, parts and substitutions for or which are added or attached to
the Equipment shall become the property of Lessor, included in the definition
of Equipment, and subject to this Lease.
15. TITLE. Lessee shall keep the Equipment free from all liens and
encumbrances. Lessee shall execute and/or furnish to Lessor any further
instruments and assurances reasonably requested from time to time by Lessor
to protect its interest, and shall otherwise cooperate to defend the title of
Lessor and to maintain the status of the Equipment as personal property,
including, without limitation, the execution of financing statements and the
furnishing of waivers with respect to rights in the Equipment from the owners
and mortgagees of the real estate on which the Equipment is or will be
located. Lessor may file or record any such financing statements, waivers or
with instruments in order to protect its interest. Lessee hereby irrevocably
authorizes Lessor to sign on behalf of Lessee and file in the appropriate
public office (s) UCC financing statements covering the Equipment and all
proceeds thereof.
16. QUIET ENJOYMENT. So long as Lessee shall not be in default and fully
performs all of its obligations hereunder, Lessor will not interfere with the
quiet use and enjoyment of the Equipment by Lessee.
17. RETURN. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease with
respect to any Equipment, Lessee, pursuant to Lessor's instructions and at
Lessee's expense, will have the Equipment deinstalled, audited by the
maintenance contractor or another party acceptable to Lessor, packed and
shipped fully insured and in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions
to the destination specified by Lessor; provided, however, that Lessor shall
reimburse Lessee for any freight charges incurred at the direction of Lessor
which may exceed the charges for shipment from the location of such Equipment
to Lessor's place of business in Chicago, Illinois. All returned Equipment
shall be in good operating order and appearance, other than normal wear and
tear and shall comply with all of the requirements of Section 7. Lessee shall
pay Lessor, on demand, the cost of any repairs normal wear and tear and shall
comply with all of the requirements of Section 7. Lessee shall pay to Lessor,
on demand, the cost of any repairs necessary to place the Equipment in the
condition required by this Lease.
18. LESSEE'S WARRANTIES. In order to induce Lessor to enter into this Lease
and to lease the Equipment to Lessee hereunder, Lessee represents and
warrants that: (a) Disclosures. (i) its applications, financial statements
and reports which have been submitted by it to Lessor are, and all
information hereafter furnished by Lessee to Lessor will be, true and correct
in all material respects as of the date submitted; (ii) as of the date
hereof, the date of any Schedule and any lease Commencement Date, there has
been no material adverse change in any matter stated in such applications,
financial statements and reports; (iii) there are no known contingent
liabilities or liabilities for taxes of Lessee which are not
3
reflected in said financial statements or reports; and, (iv) none of the
foregoing omit or omitted to state any material fact. (b) Organization.
Lessee is an organizational entity described on the signature page hereof and
is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing in the state first
set forth above and duly qualified to do business in each state in which the
Equipment will be located. (c) Power and Authority. Lessee has full power,
authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform this Lease and any
Schedule thereto, and the execution, delivery and performance hereof has been
duly authorized by all necessary action of Lessee. (d) Enforceability. This
Lease and any Schedule or other document executed in connection therewith has
been duly executed and delivered by Lessee and constitutes a legal, valid and
binding obligation of Lessee enforceable in accordance with its terms. (e)
Consents and Permits. The execution, delivery and performance of this Lease
does not require any approval or consent of any stockholders, partners or
proprietors or of any trustee or holders of any indebtedness or obligations
of Lessee, and will not contravene any law, regulation, judgment or decree
applicable to Lessee, or the certificate of organization, partnership
agreement or by-laws of Lessee, or contravene the provisions of, or
constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any lien upon any
property of Lessee under any mortgage, instrument or other agreement to which
Lessee is a party or by which Lessee or its assets may be bound or affected.
No authorization, approval, license, filing or registration with any court or
governmental agency or instrumentality except as disclosed is necessary in
connection with the execution, delivery, performance, validity and
enforceability of this Lease. (f) Title to Equipment. On each Commencement
Date, Lessor shall have good and marketable title to the items of Equipment
being subjected to this Lease on such date, free and clear of all liens
created by or through Lessee.
19. ASSIGNMENT. Lessee hereby consents to any assignment by Lessor and any
reassignment of this Lease or rents hereunder with or without notice. Lessee
agrees that the rights of any assignee shall not be subject to any defense,
setoff or counterclaim that Lessee may have against Lessor, and that any such
assignee shall have all of Lessor's rights hereunder, but none of Lessor's
obligations. Neither this Lease nor any of Lessee's rights hereunder shall be
assignable by Lessee, either by its own act or by operation of law, without
the prior written consent of Lessor, and any such attempted assignment shall
be void. Lessee further agrees it will not, without the prior written consent
of Lessor, allow the Equipment to be used by persons other than employees of
Lessee, or rent or sublet any Equipment to others or relocate any Equipment
from the premises where originally installed.
20. LESSOR'S RIGHT TO TERMINATE. Without limiting the rights of Lessor in
the event of a default by Lessee, Lessor shall at any time prior to
acceptance of any Equipment have the right to terminate this Lease with
respect to such Equipment if (a) there shall be an adverse change in Lessee's
or any Guarantor's financial position or credit standing, or (b) Lessor
otherwise in good faith deems itself insecure, or (c) such Equipment is not
for any reason delivered to Lessee within 90 days or accepted by Lessee
within 30 days after any estimated delivery date thereof specified in the
Schedule describing such Equipment, or (d) Lessee rejects any Equipment in
accordance with Paragraph 6 hereof. Upon any termination by Lessor pursuant
to this Paragraph, Lessee shall forthwith reimburse to Lessor all sums paid
by Lessor with respect to such Equipment and pay to Lessor all other sums
then due hereunder; whereupon, if Lessee is not then in default and has then
fully performed all of its obligations hereunder, Lessor will, upon request
of Lessee, transfer to Lessee without warranty or recourse any rights that
Lessor may then have with respect to such Equipment.
21. RIGHT TO PERFORM OBLIGATIONS. If Lessee shall fail to make any payment
or perform any act or obligation required of Lessee hereunder, Lessor may
(but need not) at any time thereafter make such payment or perform such act
or obligation at the expense of Lessee. Any expense so incurred by Lessor
shall constitute additional rental hereunder payable by Lessee to Lessor upon
demand with interest at the overdue rate, as hereinafter defined.
22. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. An event of default shall occur hereunder if the
owner(s) of Lessee sell or otherwise transfer their controlling interest in
Lessee or if Lessee (i) fails to pay any installment of rent or other payment
required hereunder when due and such failure shall continue for more than
five (5) days; or (ii) attempts to or does remove from the premises, sell,
transfer, encumber, part with possession of, or sublet any item of Equipment;
or (iii) breaches or shall have breached any representation or warranty made
or given by Lessee or Guarantor in this Lease or in any other document
furnished to Lessor in connection herewith, or any such representation or
warranty shall be untrue or, by reason of failure to state a material fact or
otherwise, shall be misleading; or (iv) fails to perform or observe any other
covenant, condition or agreement to be performed or observed by it hereunder,
and such failure or breach shall continue unremedied for a period of thirty
(30) days after the earlier of (a) the date on which Lessee obtains, or
should have obtained knowledge of such failure or breach; or (b) the date on
which notice thereof shall be given by Lessor to Lessee; or (v) shall become
insolvent or bankrupt or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or
consent to the appointment of a trustee or receiver, or a trustee or receiver
shall be appointed for a substantial part of its property without its
consent, or bankruptcy or reorganization or insolvency proceeding shall be
instituted by or against Lessee; or (vi) ceases doing business as a going
concern.
23. REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT. In the event of any default by Lessee, Lessor
may, at its option, do one or more of the following: (a) terminate this Lease
and Lessee's rights hereunder; (b) proceed by appropriate court action to
enforce performance of the terms of this Lease and/or recover damages for the
breach hereof; (c) directly or by its agent, and without notice or liability
or legal process, enter upon any promises where any Equipment may be located,
take possession of such Equipment, and either store it on said premises
without charge or remove the same (any damages occasioned by such taking of
possession, storage or removal being waived by Lessee); and/or (d) declare as
immediately due and payable and forthwith recover from Lessee, as liquidated
damages and not as a penalty, an amount equal to the then aggregate
Stipulated Loss Value of the Equipment.
In the event of any repossession of any Equipment by Lessor, Lessor may (but
need not), without notice to Lessee, (A) hold or use all or part of such
Equipment for any purpose whatsoever, (B) sell all or part of such Equipment at
public or private sale for cash or on credit and/or (C) relet all or part of
such Equipment upon such terms as Lessor may solely determine; in each case
without any duty to account to Lessee except as herein expressly provided. After
any repossession of Equipment by Lessor there shall be applied on account of the
obligations of Lessee hereunder one of the following chosen at the option of
Lessor: (x) the net proceeds actually received by Lessor from a sale of such
Equipment, after deduction of all expenses of sale and other expenses
recoverable by Lessor hereunder, or (y) the then "net fair market value" of such
Equipment, as determined by an appraisal made by an independent appraiser
selected by Lessor at Lessee's expense, taking into account a reasonable
estimate of all expenses necessary to effect a sale and the other expenses
recoverable by Lessor hereunder; and Lessee shall remain liable, subject to all
provisions of this Lease, for the balance of the Stipulated Loss Value. No
termination, repossession or other act by Lessor
4
after default shall relieve Lessee from any of its obligations hereunder. In
addition to all other charges hereunder, Lessee shall pay to Lessor on demand
all fees, costs and expenses incurred by Lessor as a result of such default,
including without limitation, reasonable attorneys', appraisers' and brokers'
fees and expenses and costs of removal, storage, transportation, insurance
and disposition of the Equipment (except to the extent deducted from "net
fair market value" or net proceeds of sale, as aforesaid). In the event that
any court of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of this
Paragraph 23 is invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, such
determination shall not prohibit Lessor from establishing its damages
sustained as a result of any breach of this Lease in any action or proceeding
in which Lessor seeks to recover such damages. The remedies provided herein
in favor of Lessor shall not be exclusive, but shall be cumulative and in
addition to all other remedies existing at law or in equity, any one or more
of which may be exercised simultaneously or successively.
24. NON-WAIVER. Lessor's failure at any time to require strict performance
by Lessee of any provision hereof shall not waive or diminish Lessor's rights
thereafter to demand strict performance thereof or of any other provision.
None of the provisions of this Lease shall be held to have been waived by any
act or knowledge of Lessor, but only by a written instrument executed by
Lessor and delivered to Lessee. Waiver of any default shall not be a waiver
of any other or subsequent default,
25. COMMUNICATIONS. Any notice or other communication required or desired to
be given hereunder shall be given in writing and shall be deemed to have been
duly given and received when sent by confirmed express mail, when delivered
by hand or by confirmed Federal Express delivery or other reputable overnight
courier or by facsimile on the date actually received by the addressee and,
when deposited in the United States mail, registered or certified, postage
prepaid, return receipt requested, on the third business day succeeding the
day on which such notice was mailed, addressed to the respective addresses of
the parties set forth at the beginning of this Lease or any other address
designated by notice served in accordance herewith.
26. FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION. Lessee shall furnish to Lessor such
financial and other information about the condition and affairs of Lessee and
any Guarantor and about the Equipment as Lessor may from time to time
reasonably request.
27. HOLDING OVER. Any use of the Equipment beyond the initial lease term or
any renewal thereof shall be deemed to be an extension of the Lease term on a
month-to-month basis terminable by Lessor on ten (10) days notice to Lessee
and all obligations of Lessee herein, including payment of rent shall
continue during such holding over.
28. SURVIVAL. Lessee's indemnities shall survive the expiration or other
termination of this Lease.
29. SERVICE OF PROCESS; VENUE. IN ORDER TO INDUCE LESSOR TO EXECUTE THIS
LEASE, LESSEE HEREBY AGREES THAT ALL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING DIRECTLY
OR INDIRECTLY FROM THIS LEASE SHALL BE LITIGATED ONLY IN COURTS (STATE OR
FEDERAL) HAVING SITUS IN THE STATE OF ILLINOIS AND THE COUNTY OF COOK UNLESS
LESSOR, IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION, WAIVES THIS PROVISION. LESSEE HEREBY
EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION
OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED BY LESSOR IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED
WITHIN THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS
AND COMPLAINT OR OTHER PROCESS OR PAPERS ISSUED THEREIN, AND AGREES THAT
SERVICE MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO LESSEE AS
PROVIDED FOR IN PARAGRAPH 25 HEREOF, AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED
TO BE COMPLETED ON THE THIRD BUSINESS DAY AFTER THE SAME SHALL HAVE BEEN
MAILED IN THIS MANNER. LESSEE WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY ACTION INSTITUTED BY
LESSOR HEREUNDER IS IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM OR AN IMPROPER FORUM BASED ON
LACK OF VENUE. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LESSEE HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY
JURY AND ANY RIGHT OF SETOFF OR COUNTERCLAIM IN ANY ACTION BETWEEN LESSOR AND
LESSEE.
30. SECURITY INTEREST. To the extent that any of the transactions evidenced
by Schedules are secured transactions, Lessee hereby grants to Lessor a
security interest in the Equipment described on such Schedules as security
for all Lessee's obligations and liabilities under the Lease and Lessee
authorizes Lessor to disburse the purchase price of such Equipment directly
to the vendor(s) thereof.
31. NON-CANCELABLE LEASE; UNCONDITIONAL OBLIGATIONS. THIS LEASE CANNOT BE
CANCELED OR TERMINATED EXCEPT BY LESSOR AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED FOR HEREIN.
LESSEE AGREES THAT LESSEE'S OBLIGATION TO PAY ALL RENT AND PAY AND PERFORM
ALL OTHER OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER SHALL BE ABSOLUTE, IRREVOCABLE, UNCONDITIONAL
AND INDEPENDENT AND SHALL BE PAID OR PERFORMED WITHOUT ABATEMENT, DEDUCTION
OR OFFSET OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER.
32. LESSEE WAIVERS. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Lessee hereby
waives any and all rights and remedies conferred upon a Lessee by Sections
2A-508 through 2A-522 of the Uniform Commercial Code, including, without
limitations, the right to (i) cancel this Lease; (ii) repudiate this Lease;
(iii) reject this Lease; (iv) revoke acceptance of the Equipment; (v) recover
damages from Lessor for any breach of warranty or any other reason; (vi)
claim a security interest in any rejected property in Lessee's possession;
(vii) deduct all or any part of claimed damages resulting from Lessor's
default; (viii) accept partial delivery of the Equipment; (ix) "cover" by
making any purchase or lease of equipment in substitution of the Equipment;
(x) recover any general, special, incidental or consequential damages from
Lessor for any reason.
33. MISCELLANEOUS. Interest on any past due sums shall accrue at the rate of
1 1/2% per month, not to exceed the maximum rate permitted by law (the
"overdue rate"). If any provision of this Lease or the application thereof is
hereafter held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease shall
not be affected thereby, and to this end the provisions of this Lease are
declared severable. Titles to Paragraphs shall not be considered in the
interpretation of this Lease. This Lease (including the Schedules and any
Riders hereto) sets forth the entire understanding
5
between the parties and may not be modified except in a writing signed by both
parties. Except as may be expressly provided in any Schedule or Rider hereto, no
options to purchase any of the Equipment or extend the term of this Lease with
respect to any Equipment have been granted or agreed to by Lessor, and none
shall be implied by this Lease. If there is more than one Lessee, the
obligations of Lessee hereunder are joint and several. The necessary grammatical
changes required to make the provisions hereof apply to corporations,
partnerships and/or individuals, men or women, shall in all cases be assumed as
though in each case fully expressed. Subject to the terms hereof, this Lease
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Lessor and Lessee and their
respective personal representatives, successors and assigns. This Lease shall be
governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Illinois. This Lease is
submitted to Lessor for its acceptance or rejection and will not become
effective until accepted by Lessor in writing at its office in Chicago,
Illinois. The individuals executing this Lease on behalf of Lessee personally
warrant that they are doing so pursuant to due authorization and that by so
executing this Lease, Lessee is being bound hereby.
Dated as of the day and year first above written.

amortization charged to all tenants for improvements not
mandated by government authority shall not exceed, in any

ADDENDUM A-2
(2) ANNUAL ESTIMATE OF EXPENSES; TENANT'S SHARE. On the
Commencement Date, and prior to commencement of each calendar year
thereafter, Landlord shall prepare and deliver to Tenant its reasonable
estimate of Expenses for the Project for the coming year. Tenant's
Share of all actual Expenses shall be determined by multiplying the
total of all actual Expenses by the Premises Percent of Project set
forth in Section 1.7 (herein "Tenant's Share").
(3) MONTHLY PAYING OF EXPENSES; ANNUAL RECAP. Tenant shall pay to
Landlord, monthly, in advance, as additional rent, one-twelfth of the
product achieved by multiplying the then current estimate of annual
Expenses by the Premises Percent of Project set forth in Section 1.7.
As soon as practical following the end of each calendar year, Landlord
shall prepare an accounting of actual Expenses incurred during the
prior calendar year. If the amount of additional rent paid by Tenant as
Tenant's Share during the preceding calendar year was less than the
actual amount of Tenant's Share of Expenses, Landlord shall so notify
Tenant and Tenant shall pay to Landlord the difference between said two
amounts within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice. Such amount
shall be deemed to have accrued during the prior calendar year and
shall be due and payable from Tenant even though the Term of this Lease
may have terminated prior to Tenant's receipt of the notice. If the
amount of additional rent paid by Tenant as Tenant's Share during the
preceding calendar year was greater than the actual amount of Tenant's
Share of Expenses, then Landlord shall promptly so notify Tenant and
such overpayment shall be credited by Landlord or, at the end of the
Lease Term, shall be immediately refunded to Tenant to the monthly
payment of Tenant's Share of Expenses next due from Tenant to Landlord.
In no event shall such credit be used to offset or in any way reduce
the Base Monthly Rent. During February 1998 and March 1, 1998 Tenant
shall pay twenty five (25) percent of the Expenses due for each of
these months.
4.4 RENT WITHOUT OFFSET. All rent shall be paid by Tenant to
Landlord monthly in advance on the first day of every calendar month,

may designate in writing from time-to-time. All rent shall be paid
without prior demand or notice and without any deduction or offset
whatsoever. All rent shall be paid in lawful currency of the United
States of America. All rent due for any partial month shall be
prorated, when appropriate, at the rate of one-thirtieth (1/30) of the
total monthly rent per day.
4.5 LATE CHARGE. Time is of the essence to the performance of this
Lease. Tenant acknowledges that late payment by Tenant to Landlord of
any base monthly rent or other sums due under this Lease will cause
Landlord to incur costs and damages, including but not limited to
processing and accounting charges and late charges that may be imposed
on Landlord by the terms of any encumbrance secured by the Premises, as
well as the loss of the use and time value of money. Landlord and
Tenant specifically agree and acknowledge that the exact amount of such
costs and damages would be difficult or impossible to prove. Provided
that Landlord and Tenant initial here:
\s\ illegible LANDLORD
---------------
TENANT
---------------
4
Tenant agrees that, if any rent or other sum due from Tenant is not
received when due, Tenant shall pay to Landlord an additional sum equal
to TEN (10) PERCENT OF THE UNPAID BALANCE DUE. Landlord and Tenant
hereby agree that they have attempted to estimate the amount of costs
and damages which would result from delay in payment, and that the
agreed late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the
costs and damages that Landlord will incur by reason of any such late
payment in light of the anticipated or actual harm which would be
caused by such delays, the difficulties of proof of loss, and the
inconvenience or nonfeasibility of Landlord otherwise obtaining an
adequate remedy. Additionally, all such delinquent rent or other sums,
plus this late charge, shall bear interest at the rate per annum set
forth in Section 1.9 above. Any payments of any kind returned
insufficient funds will be subject to an additional handling charge of
$25.00.
6. DEPOSIT. Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit with
Landlord the amount of the security deposit set forth in Section 1.10(4)
(herein the "Security Deposit"), in part as security for the performance by
Tenant of the provisions of this Lease. In the event of default by Tenant,
Landlord shall have the right to use the Security Deposit or any portion of
it to cure the default or to compensate Landlord for all damage sustained by
Landlord resulting from Tenant's default. Upon demand, Tenant shall
immediately pay to Landlord a sum equal to the portion of the Security
Deposit so expended or applied so as to maintain the Security Deposit in the
amount initially deposited with Landlord. If Tenant is not in default at the
expiration or termination of this Lease, Landlord shall return the entire
Security Deposit to Tenant. Landlord's obligations with respect to the
Security Deposit are not those of a trustee, such that, for example, Landlord
may commingle the Security Deposit with Landlord's general funds. Landlord
shall not be required to pay Tenant interest with respect to the Security
Deposit. Landlord shall be entitled to immediately endorse and cash any check
tendered as the Security Deposit; however, such endorsement and cashing shall
not constitute Landlord's acceptance of this Lease. In the event Landlord
does not accept this Lease, Landlord shall immediately return the Security
Deposit.
7. CONDITION AND USE OF PREMISES AND PROJECT FACILITIES. Tenant shall
use the Premises solely for the purpose set forth in Section 1.4 and for no
other purpose without obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord. Tenant
has decided to lease the Premises based upon Tenant's independent
investigations, inquiry, and business judgment. Tenant acknowledges that
neither Landlord nor any agent of Landlord has made any representation or
warranty with respect to the Premises or the Project or with respect to the

improvements do not interfere with access to the Premises or Tenant's
permitted use of the Premises and does not otherwise impair Tenant's rights
hereunder. Tenant shall promptly comply with all laws, ordinances, orders and
regulations affecting the Premises and the Project, including without
limitation any rules and regulations that may be attached to this Lease and
to any reasonable none-discriminatory modifications to these rules and
regulations as Landlord may adopt from time-to-time. Should Tenant do or
permit anything to be done in or about the Premises or bring or keep anything
in the Premises that in any way increases the premiums paid by Landlord on
its insurance related to the Project or which will in any way increase the
premiums for fire or casualty insurance carried by other tenants in the
Project. Tenant shall pay for said increase in premium. Tenant will not
perform any act or carry on any practice that may injure the Premises or the
Project, be a nuisance or menace to other tenants in the Project, or in any
way interfere with the quiet enjoyment of such other tenants. Tenant shall
not use the Premises for sleeping, washing clothes, cooking or the
preparation, manufacture or mixing of anything that might emit any
objectionable odor, noises, vibrations or lights onto such other tenants. If
sound insulation is required to muffle noise produced by Tenant on the

suppliers, employees and invitees, a non-exclusive privilege to use the
parking areas in the Project for the use of motor vehicles during the term of
this Lease. Landlord reserves the right at any time to grant similar
non-exclusive privileges to other tenants, to promulgate rules and
regulations relating to the use of such parking areas, including reasonable
restrictions on parking by tenants and employees, to designate specific
spaces for the use of any tenant, to make changes in the parking layout from
time-to-time, and to establish reasonable time limits on parking. Overnight
parking is prohibited and any vehicle violating this or any other vehicle
regulation adopted by Landlord is subject to removal at the owner's expense.

Premises. If Landlord reasonably determines that Tenant is using excessive
amounts of water, Landlord may install a separate water meter for the Premises

alterations, Landlord may post notices of nonresponsibility in accordance

of attachment or execution is levied on this Lease; or (c) if in any proceeding
or action to which Tenant is a party, a receiver is appointed with authority to

remedies set forth in this Section 20. These remedies are not
exclusive; they are cumulative and in addition to any remedies now or
later allowed by law. Landlord may terminate Tenant's right to
possession of the Premises at any time. No act by Landlord other than
giving notice to Tenant shall terminate this Lease. Acts of

receiver on Landlord's initiative to protect Landlord's interest under

Landlord for Tenant's default. "The worth" as used in item 20(1) is to
be computed by allowing interest at the rate per annum set forth in
Section 1.9 above. "The worth" as used for item 20(2) is to be computed
by discounting the amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve
Bank or San Francisco at the time of termination of Tenant's right of
possession.
20.2 PERFORMANCE BY LANDLORD OF TENANT'S OBLIGATIONS. All covenants
and agreements to be performed by Tenant under any of the terms or this
Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and expense

hereunder, or it Tenant shall fail to perform any other act on its part
to be performed hereunder or otherwise violate any term or provision of
this Lease including, without limitation, its obligations pursuant to
Sections 7, 12 and 13, Landlord may, without waiving any default or
releasing Tenant from any obligation hereunder, but shall not be
obligated to, make any such payment or perform any such other act to be
made or performed by Tenant. All sums so paid by Landlord and all
necessary incidental costs, together with interest thereon from the
date of such payment by Landlord at the rate per annum set forth in
Section 1.9 above, shall be payable to Landlord on demand. Tenant
covenants to pay any such sums.
21. ENTRY ON PREMISES. Landlord and its authorized representatives shall
have the right to enter the Premises at all reasonable times for any of the
following purposes: (a) To determine whether the Premises are in good condition
and whether Tenant is complying with its obligations under this Lease; (b) To do
any necessary maintenance and to make any restoration to the Premises or the
Project that Landlord has the right or obligation to perform; (c) To post "for
sale" signs at any time during the Term, to post "for rent" or "for lease" signs
during the last ninety (90) days of the term, or during any period while Tenant
is in default; (d) To show the Premises to prospective brokers, agents, buyers,
tenants or persons interested in an exchange, at any time during the Term; or
(e) To repair, maintain or improve the Project and to erect scaffolding and
protective barricades around and about the Premises (but not so as to prevent
entry to the Premises), and (f) To do any other act or thing necessary for the
safety or preservation of the Premises or the Project. Landlord shall not be
liable in any manner for any inconvenience, disturbance, loss of business,
nuisance or other damage arising out of Landlord's entry onto the Premises as
provided in this Section 21. Tenant shall not be entitled to an abatement or
reduction of rent if Landlord exercises any rights reserved in this Section 21.
Landlord shall conduct its activities on the Premises as provided herein in a
manner that will cause the least inconvenience, annoyance or disturbance to
Tenant. For each of these purposes, Tenant shall not alter any lock or install a
new or additional lock or bolt on any door of the Premises without prior written
consent of Landlord. If Landlord shall give its consent, Tenant shall in each
case furnish Landlord with a key for any such lock.
22. SUBORDINATION; CERTIFICATES. Without the necessity of any additional
document being executed by Tenant for the purpose of effecting a subordination,
and at the election of Landlord or any mortgagee or any beneficiary of a deed of
trust with a lien on the Project or any ground lessor with respect to the
Project, this Lease shall be subject and subordinate at all times to (a) all
ground leases or underlying leases which may now exist or hereafter be executed
affecting the Project, and (b) the lien of any mortgage or deed of trust which
may now exist or hereafter be executed in any amount for which the Project,
ground leases or underlying leases, or Landlord's interest or estate in any of
said items is specified as
10
security. In the event that any ground lease or underlying lease terminates
for any reason or any mortgage or deed of trust is foreclosed or a conveyance
in lieu of foreclosure is made for any reason, Tenant shall, notwithstanding
any subordination, attorn to and become the Tenant of the successor in
interest to Landlord, at the option of such successor in interest. Tenant
covenants and agrees to execute and deliver, upon demand, by Landlord and in
the form requested by Landlord, any additional documents evidencing the
priority or subordination of this Lease with respect to any such ground lease
or underlying leases or the lien of any such mortgage or deed of trust.
Tenant hereby irrevocably appoints Landlord as attorney-in-fact of Tenant to
execute, deliver and record any such document in the name and on behalf of
Tenant.
Tenant, within ten days from notice from Landlord, shall execute and deliver
to Landlord, in recordable form, certificates stating that Landlord is not in
default hereunder, that the Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect,
or in full force and effect as modified, and stating the modification. Such
certificate shall also state the amount of current monthly rent, the dates to
which rent has been paid in advance, and the amount of any security deposit
and prepaid rent. Failure to deliver this certificate to Landlord within
ten (10) days shall be conclusive upon Tenant that this Lease is in full force
and effect and has not been modified except as may be represented by Landlord.
23. NOTICE. Any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, or
communication desired by either party or required to be given, shall be in
writing and served personally and sent by prepaid first class mail, addressed
as set forth in Section 1. Either party may change its address by notification
to the other party. Notice shall be deemed to be communicated forty-eight (48)
hours from the time of mailing, if mailed, or from time of service, if
personally served.
24. WAIVER. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by
Landlord shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. No act
or conduct of Landlord, including without limitation, acceptance of the keys to
the Premises, shall constitute an acceptance of the surrender of the Premises by
Tenant before the expiration of the Term. Only written notice from Landlord to
Tenant shall constitute acceptance of the surrender of the Premises and
accomplish termination of the Lease. Landlord's consent for approval shall not
be deemed to waive or render unnecessary Landlord's consent to or approval of
any subsequent act by Tenant. Any waiver by Landlord of any default must be in
writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or
any other provision of the Lease.
25. SURRENDER OF PREMISES; HOLDING OVER. Upon expiration of the Term,
Tenant shall surrender to Landlord the Premises and all tenant improvements and
alterations in the condition described in Section 13 above. Tenant shall remove
all personal property owned by Tenant and shall perform all restoration made
necessary by the removal of any alterations or Tenant's personal property before
the expiration of the Term, including for example, restoring all wall surfaces
to their condition prior to the Commencement Date. Landlord shall have the right
to elect to retain or dispose of in any manner Tenant's personal property not so
removed. Tenant waives all claims against Landlord for any damage to Tenant or
such personal property resulting from Landlord's retention or disposal of
Tenant's personal property. Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for Landlord's
costs for storage, removal and disposal of Tenant's personal property.
If Tenant, with Landlord's express written consent, remains in possession of the
Premises after expiration or termination of this Lease, or after the date in any
notice given by Landlord to Tenant terminating this Lease, such possession by
Tenant shall be deemed to be a month-to-month tenancy terminable on thirty (30)
day notice at any time, be either party. All provisions of this Lease, except
those pertaining to Term and rent, shall apply to the month-to-month tenancy.
Tenant shall pay monthly rent in an amount equal to 125% of the Base Monthly
Rent which was due with respect to the last full calendar month during the Term,
plus 100% of said last month's Tenant's Share of Expenses.
If Tenant holds over after the expiration of the Term or the earlier termination
hereof without the express written consent of Landlord, Tenant shall become a
tenant at sufferance only, at a rental rate equal to one hundred fifty percent
(150%) of the Base Monthly Rent in effect upon the date of such termination
expiration, prorated on a daily basis, and subject to the terms, covenants and
conditions herein specified, so far as applicable, including Section 4.3.
Acceptance by Landlord of rent after such expiration or earlier termination
shall not result in a renewal or extension of
11
this Lease. The foregoing provisions of this Section 25 are in addition to
and do not affect Landlord's right of re-entry or any rights of Landlord
hereunder or as otherwise provided by law. If Tenant fails to surrender the
Premises upon the expiration of this Lease despite demand to do so by
Landlord, Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all loss or
liability, including without limitation, any claim made by any succeeding
tenant founded on or resulting from such failure to surrender and any
attorney's fees and costs.
26. MORTGAGEE PROTECTION. In the event of any default by Landlord, Tenant
will give notice by registered or certified mail to any beneficiary of a deed of
trust or mortgagee of a mortgage covering the Premises whose address shall have
been furnished to Tenant, and shall offer such beneficiary or mortgagee a
reasonable opportunity to cure the default, including time to obtain possession
of the Premises by power of sale or a judicial foreclosure, if such should prove
necessary to effect a cure.
27. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. In consideration of the benefits accruing
hereunder, Tenant agrees that, in the event of any actual or alleged failure,
breach or default of this Lease by Landlord, if Landlord is a partnership:
(a) The sole and exclusive remedy shall be against the partnership and its
partnership assets and the Project, (b) No partner of Landlord shall be sued or
named as a party in any suit or action (except as may be necessary to secure
jurisdiction of the partnership); (c) No service of process shall be made
against any partner of Landlord (except as may be necessary to secure
jurisdiction of the partnership); (d) No partner of Landlord shall be required
to answer or otherwise plead to any service of process; (e) No judgment may be
taken against any partner of Landlord; Any judgment taken against any partner of
Landlord may be vacated and set aside at any time without hearing; (g) No writ
of execution will ever be levied against the assets of any partner of Landlord;
(h) These covenants and agreements are enforceable both by Landlord and also by
any partner of Landlord.
Tenant agrees that each of the foregoing provisions shall be applicable to any
covenant or agreement either expressly contained in this Lease or imposed by
statute or at common law.

litigation leads to actual court action. If either party commences an
action against the other party arising out of or in connection with
this Lease, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the
other party reasonable attorney's fees and costs of suit, both at trial
and on appeal, such fees to be set by the court before which the matter
is heard. If Landlord employs a collection agency to recover delinquent

payable under this Lease. Tenant shall pay a charge of $75 to Landlord
for preparation of a demand for delinquent rent.

be rent free and the November 1999 Base Monthly rent shall be $9,917.52. At this
time, the Termination Fee money market account will be reduced by $ l2,225 which

right to Early Termination on March 31, 2001, the Base Monthly Rent in October
2000, November 2000 and December 2000 shall be rent free and the Base Monthly
Rent in January 2001 shall be $4,954.60. At this time, the Termination Fee money
market account will be reduced by $40,659 to zero and the funds will be retained
by Landlord in exchange for the free rent in October, November and December 2000
and the reduced rent in January 2001. If Tenant exercises its right to Early
Termination on March 31, 2000 Landlord
15

Condemnation, the outstanding amount of the Termination Fee shall be refunded to
Tenant. The Termination Fee shall not be considered or recharacterized as a
security deposit.

shall provide the form of non-disturbance agreement to Landlord that it wishes
to be signed by Landlord's mortgage lender(s) and ground lessor(s).

and all mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems at the Premises and the
Project are in good working and waterproof condition. Landlord, at Landlord's
sole cost, shall deliver the Premises and Project in a condition that meets with
all current codes and conditions and the American's with Disabilities Act. Any
such costs for Landlord to comply with this paragraph shall be bid separately by
Tenant's contractor, at Landlord's option to use such contractor, and Landlord
shall reimburse Tenant for that portion of the work ten (10) working days
following receipt of proof of payment by Tenant.
40. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Lease, Landlord shall provide to Tenant the existing February 1992
Phase I Environmental Report. Tenant's review and approval of said report shall
be a condition to entering into the Lease. Once Tenant has executed this Lease,
said condition shall be deemed waived and satisfied. Landlord shall indemnify
Tenant against any hazardous materials that may have existed prior to
February 1, 1998 in or upon the Project and Premises. Tenant shall indemnify
Landlord against Tenant's use of any hazardous materials and shall use any such
materials in compliance with all governmental codes and regulations. SEE

contractors or invitees; (iv) reserves for the repair, replace or improvement of
the Building or Project; (v) all rental and other costs due under any ground or
underlying lease; (vi) expenses incurred by Landlord in connection with services
or other benefits which are not offered to Tenant or items and services for

selectively to one or more tenants, other than Tenant, without reimbursement,
and the cost of which is included as Operating Expenses; (vii) the cost of
repairing any structural defects in the Building or Project and repairing any
material defects in the design, materials or workmanship of the Building or

future real property taxes and assessments; and (ii) any documentary transfer
taxes arising from a voluntary transfer of the Building or any portion of the
Project by Landlord. If a reduction in real property' taxes is obtained for any
year of the Term during which Tenant paid tenant's percentage of such real
property taxes, then the Expenses for such year shall be retroactively adjusted
and Landlord shall provide Tenant with a credit against Tenant's next due
obligations for rent or, if none, refund such amount to Tenant within thirty
(30) days based on such adjustment. If, by applicable law, any taxes or
assessments may be paid in installments at the option of the taxpayer, then
whether or not Landlord elects to pay taxes and assessments in such
installments, Tenant's liability for such taxes and assessments shall be

materially increased, as a result of such merger or consolidation); or (c) to
any person or legal entity which acquires all the assets of Tenant as a going
concern of the business being conducted on the Premises (each of the foregoing

assignment shall be effective, (a) said Tenant Affiliate shall assume, in full,
the obligations of Tenant under this Lease, (b) Landlord shall be given written
notice of such assignment and assumption and (c) the use of the Premises by the
Tenant Affiliate shall be for the permitted uses set forth in Section 1.4 only.
For purposes of this paragraph, the term "control" means possession directly or
indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management,
affairs, and policies of anyone, whether through the ownership of voting
securities, by contract or otherwise. The sale or transfer of Tenant's capital
stock, including without limitation a transfer in connection with a merger,

introduction of such Hazardous Materials, or to such condition that is
satisfactory to all governmental agencies asserting jurisdiction and to remedy
or repair any such injury or contamination, including without limitation, any
clean up remediation, removal, disposal, neutralization or other treatment of
any such Hazardous Materials. If the
release of Hazardous Materials caused by Landlord, its authorized agents or
employees, renders the Premises untenantable in whole or in part or results
in Tenant being required to vacate the Premises in whole or in part pursuant
to an order or requirement of any governmental agency or authority, then the
Base Monthly Rent and Expenses and other charges, if any, payable by Tenant
hereunder for the period during which the Premises (or a portion thereof)
remains so impaired shall be abated in proportion to the agreed of which

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
17.4 AWARD. Any award for the taking of all or any part

compensation for diminution in value of the leasehold or for
the taking of the fee or as severance damages or for any other
reason; provided, however, that Tenant shall be entitled to
any Award expressly and separately made for loss of or damage
to Tenant's trade fixtures and removable personal property and
relocation expenses.
2. DEFAULT. Section 19 of the Lease is hereby amended
by adding thereto the following sentence:

any general arrangement or assignment for the benefit of
creditors; (ii) Tenant becomes a "debtor" as defined in
12 U.S.C. Section 101 or any successor statute thereto
(unless, in the case of a petition filed against Tenant, the

interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to

hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
27. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. In consideration of the
benefits accruing hereunder, Tenant agrees that in the event
of any actual or alleged failure, breach or default of this
Lease by Landlord:

b. Neither Landlord, any partner of Landlord if
Landlord is a partnership, or any shareholder of Landlord if
Landlord is a corporation shall be sued or named as a party in
any suit or action (except as may be necessary to secure
jurisdiction over the Property of which the Premises are a
part), and no judgment may be taken against any such person.
5. LANDLORD SUCCESSORS. Section 28.6 is hereby amended
and restated in its entirety as follows:
28.6 LANDLORD SUCCESSORS. In the event of a sale,
conveyance, foreclosure action or deed in lieu of foreclosure
by Landlord of the Project, the same shall operate to release
Landlord from any liability under this Lease, and in such
event Landlord's successor in interest shall be solely
responsible for all obligations of Landlord under this Lease
arising after such sale or conveyance; provided however, such
successor shall not be liable for any prior defaults of
Landlord.

entire term of the Equipment Lease and Purchaser shall be entitled (as provided
in the Bankruptcy Court Order) to a duly perfected first priority security
interest in the funds in the Maintenance Escrow to secure Nuclear Imaging
Systems, Inc.'s performance of said maintenance obligation. Moreover, should
Nuclear Imaging Systems, Inc. fail to keep the Leased Equipment in good repair

for all sales and use taxes, if any, arising out of the sale of the Purchased
Assets to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement.
2.9 [OMITTED].
2.10 REAL PROPERTY LEASES. Also as material inducement to Purchaser
to enter into this Agreement, each Company (as may be appropriate) agrees that
it shall arrange for Purchaser to occupy the premises that are the subject of
three "Real Property Leases" in favor of Nuclear Imaging Systems, Inc. as
"lessee" for the periods indicated below, as follows:
a. PLYMOUTH MEETING, PA. Nuclear Imaging Systems, Inc.
represents and warrants to Purchaser that "Lease No. 1" relating to the
location in Plymouth Meeting, PA expires by its own terms on December
31, 2000, is not in default and the monthly rent reserved under the
lease is $1,800 per month. Lease No. 1 is to be assumed by Nuclear
Imaging Systems, Inc. and assigned to Purchaser subject to a rent pro
ration between Nuclear Imaging Systems, Inc. and Purchaser such that
Nuclear Imaging Systems, Inc. shall be responsible for paying the daily
rental for any period prior to the Closing Date, and Purchaser for any
period thereafter. The security deposit (if any) paid by Nuclear
Imaging Systems, Inc. to the lessor of Lease No. 1 shall remain on
deposit with the lessor and shall be released to the bankruptcy estate
of Nuclear Imaging Systems, Inc. upon the expiration of Lease No. 1,
net of any deductions from said deposit as permitted under Lease No. 1
and applicable law.
b. BURLINGTON, NC. Nuclear Imaging Systems, Inc.
represents and warrants to Purchaser that "Lease No. 2" relating to the
location in Burlington, NC was extended beyond the original August 31,
2000 termination date for three months until November 30, 2000, that it
is not in default and that the monthly rental reserved thereunder is
$889. Rather than assume and assign this lease to Purchaser, Nuclear
Imaging Systems, Inc. agrees to obtain the replacement of the existing
lease with a month-to-month lease on the same terms and rental rate as
the existing lease, but in favor of Purchaser and on a month-to month
bases, subject to termination on 30-days' notice. Alternatively, if the
lessor under Lease No. 2 refuses to consent to the new lease, Nuclear
Imaging Systems, Inc. shall obtain assumption and assignment to
Purchaser as was the case with Lease No. 1.
c. ROCKVILLE, MD. Nuclear Imaging Systems, Inc.
represents and warrants to Purchaser that "Lease No. 3" relating to the
location in Rockville, MD was extended for 3 years beyond its original
September 30, 1999 termination date such that it is set to expire on
September 30, 2002, that it is not in default and that the monthly
rental reserved thereunder is $5,419.70. Nuclear Imaging Systems, Inc.
is presently using the property and expects to do so after the Closing
Date. Nuclear Imaging Systems, Inc. agrees, as a material inducement to
Purchaser to enter into this Agreement, to allow Purchaser to use

of the Disclosure Schedule are in full force and effect. The consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and/or in the other Acquisition
Documents in the Bankruptcy Court Order will neither violate nor result in the

licenses and agreements (except as such events are not enforceable or actionable
post-bankruptcy). Each Company is in compliance with, and has not breached any

employees) has received notice from any third party that the operation of the

without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto and any attempt to

inserted for convenience of reference only and do not define or limit the
provisions hereof.
7.8 SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future law, and if the
rights or obligations of any party hereto under this Agreement will not be
materially and adversely affected thereby, (i) such provision will be fully
severable, (ii) this Agreement will be construed and enforced as if such

thereon may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. If any question is
submitted to a court of law for resolution, then the Superior Court of the

not permissive in nature, thereby precluding the possibility of litigation
between the parties with respect to or arising out of this Agreement in any
jurisdiction other than that specified in this SECTION 7.11. Each party hereby
waives any right it may have to assert the doctrine of FORUM NON CONVENIENS or
similar doctrine or to object to venue with respect to any proceeding brought in
accordance with this paragraph, and stipulates that the State and Federal courts
located in the County of San Diego, State of California shall have in personam
jurisdiction and venue over each of them for the purposes of litigating any
dispute, controversy or proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement.
Each party hereby authorizes and accepts service of process sufficient for
personal jurisdiction in any action against it as contemplated by this SECTION
7.11 by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid,
to its address for the giving of notices as set forth in this Agreement, or in
the manner set forth in SECTION 7.1 of this Agreement for the giving of notice.
Any final judgment rendered against a party in any action or proceeding shall be
conclusive as to the subject of such final judgment and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions in any manner provided by law.

Company and Purchaser shall pay the expenses and costs of such Company and
Purchaser, respectively, incidental to the preparation of this Agreement and to
the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

construed in favor of or against any party on the ground that such party or its
counsel drafted the provision. Any remedies provided for herein are not
exclusive of any other lawful remedies which may be available to either party.
This Agreement shall at all times be construed so as to carry out the purposes
stated herein.

counterparts and by facsimile, each of which will be deemed an original, but all
of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.
7.15 FURTHER ASSURANCES. In case at any time after the Closing any
further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this
Agreement, each of the parties will take such further action (including the
execution and delivery of such further instruments and documents) as the other
party reasonably may request, all the sole cost and expense of the requesting

EXHIBIT A
MAINTENANCE ESCROW AGREEMENT
THIS MAINTENANCE ESCROW AGREEMENT dated as of this 29th day of
September 2000 (the "Agreement") is entered into by and among NUCLEAR IMAGING
SYSTEMS, INC. ("NIS"), DIGIRAD IMAGING SYSTEMS, INC. ("Purchaser"), DVI
FINANCIAL SERVICES, INC. ("Assignee") and U.S. TRUST COMPANY, NATIONAL
ASSOCIATION, ("Escrow Agent") (collectively, "Parties").
WHEREAS, NIS is indebted to Assignee on account of certain
indebtedness owed by NIS to Assignee, which indebtedness is secured by certain
assets of NIS;
WHEREAS, NIS, an affiliate of NIS, Cardiovascular Concepts,
P.C. ("CVC"), and Purchaser are parties to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "A/P
Agreement") pursuant to which Purchaser agreed to purchase and NIS (and CVC)
agreed to sell to Purchaser certain assets comprising the "Mobile Business" of
NIS and/or CVC, some or all of which assets are encumbered by a lien in favor of
Assignee;
WHEREAS, out of the agreed upon purchase price of $725,000,
the sum of $100,000 was to be and hereby is deposited into escrow with Escrow
Agent subject to a first priority lien and security interest in favor of
Purchaser to secure the maintenance obligations of NIS owed to Purchaser, and
subject the liens and security interests of Assignee which are subordinate to
those in favor of Purchaser, and subject to the terms this Agreement in order to
fund certain maintenance obligations of NIS with respect to certain equipment
encumbered by a lien in favor of Assignee, but which equipment is being leased
to Purchaser, not purchased by Purchaser (the "Leased Equipment") as set forth
in an "Equipment Lease Agreement" between NIS and Purchaser which is to be
executed concurrently with the A/P Agreement; and
WHEREAS, Escrow Agent has indicated its willingness to act as
escrow holder for the compensation set forth in EXHIBIT 1 attached hereto.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
1. APPOINTMENT AND ACCEPTANCE. The Purchaser, NIS and
Assignee hereby appoint Escrow Agent as escrow agent for the purposes and upon
the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. Escrow Agent hereby accepts such
appointment and agrees to act as escrow agent hereunder and to hold, invest and
dispose of any funds received by it hereunder in accordance with the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth.
2. OPENING OF ESCROW FUND. On or before the Closing Date
defined in the A/P Agreement, NIS will cause to be delivered to Escrow Agent the
sum of $100,000 (the "Escrow Fund") to be deposited in a federally insured,
interest-bearing account.
1
3. PURPOSE OF AGREEMENT. The Purchaser, NIS and Assignee
represent to Escrow Agent that (a) this Agreement has been executed and the
deposit of the Escrow Fund hereunder has been made pursuant to the A/P Agreement
for the purpose of providing a fund for the maintenance of the Leased Equipment
(which is encumbered by a lien in favor of Assignee) in the event NIS should
fail to perform its maintenance obligations under the A/P Agreement and the
Equipment Lease Agreement ("Maintenance Claims"), and (b) CVC has no interest in
the Escrow Fund.
ARTICLE II
1. DISBURSEMENTS FOR MAINTENANCE. During the term of
this Escrow (and subject to paragraphs II.2 and Article VII, below), Escrow
Agent shall disburse such sums as are demanded by Purchaser in accordance with
the following procedure:
a. If NIS fails to maintain the Leased
Equipment as required by the Equipment Lease
Agreement, Purchaser shall give telephonic
or fax notice of the deficiency in
performance of maintenance to both NIS and
Assignee, and (if telephonic notice was
used) shall immediately send a written
confirmation thereof to NIS via facsimile (a
"Maintenance Notice").
b. If NIS is not able to give adequate
assurance to Purchaser within 24 hours of
receipt of the telephonic or written notice
of the maintenance deficiency that Purchaser
will cure the deficiency, Purchaser may
contract with a third party to provide the
necessary maintenance to the Leased
Equipment, which contract may either be for
a one-time only servicing of the equipment,
or may be a contract to provide service for
the remainder of the term of the Equipment
Lease Agreement, in Purchaser's sole and
absolute discretion.
c. Simultaneously with obtaining services from
a third party, Purchaser shall (i) send to
Escrow Agent a copy of the Maintenance
Notice and a copy of the service contract or
invoice for repair (if the Leased Equipment
was already repaired at the cost of
Purchaser), and (ii) send to Assignee and
NIS a copy of the service contract or
invoice for repair (if the Leased Equipment
was already repaired at the cost of
Purchaser).
d. Upon receipt of a copy of the service
contract or invoice for repair (if the
Leased Equipment was already repaired at the
cost of Purchaser), Escrow Agent shall (i)
promptly reimburse Purchaser for any sums
already paid for maintenance by Purchaser
using the funds in the Escrow Fund, and (ii)
in the event a service contract was entered
into, arrange for payments thereunder as and
when they are due under the contract.
2
e. The sole means by which NIS or Assignee may
bar release of funds from the Escrow Fund is
by obtaining an appropriate court order on
not less than 1 Business Day's notice to
Purchaser enjoining payment from the Escrow
Fund on the basis that either (i) NIS did
not breach its maintenance obligation, or
(ii) the cost of repair or the maintenance
contract terms are unreasonable.
2. EFFECT OF END OF EQUIPMENT LEASE AGREEMENT. Unless
directed otherwise by Purchaser or by an order of a court of competent
jurisdiction, 30 days after the end of the lease term set forth in the Equipment
Lease Agreement, all undisbursed funds remaining in the Escrow Fund (net of sums
payable to Escrow Agent as set forth in this Agreement and in EXHIBIT 1) shall
be delivered to Assignee at the address provided in this Agreement or at such
other address as Assignee may provide to Escrow Agent in writing.
ARTICLE III
The Escrow Agent undertakes to perform only the duties
expressly set forth in this document. The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any
waiver, modification, amendment, termination, cancellation or revision of this
Escrow Agreement, unless the foregoing is in writing, signed by all the parties
to this Escrow Agreement, and the prior consent of the Escrow Agent has been
obtained. The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any assignment of the rights,
duties or obligations under this Escrow Agreement by any party unless, the
Escrow Agent receives prior written notification of such assignment and the
Escrow Agent gives prior written consent to such assignment. The Escrow Agent
shall perform any act ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction.
ARTICLE IV
NIS agrees to indemnify the Escrow Agent for, and to hold
Escrow Agent harmless, against any and all, fees, expenses, claims, suits,
actions, proceedings investigations judgments, arbitration decisions,
deficiencies, damages, awards, settlements, reasonable legal fees and expenses
of attorney(s) chosen by the Escrow Agent, liabilities and expenses incurred
based upon, but not limited to, a mistake of fact or law, act, performance,
non-performance, alleged act, alleged omission, actual omission, act or omission
based upon the advice of counsel or any other cause committed while performing
any and all duties in connection with and under this Escrow Agreement. In
addition, except where Escrow Agent is guilty of willful misconduct or
negligence, the Escrow Agent shall receive full indemnification protection from:
a. Purchaser when relying upon any certificate,
instruction, statement, request, notice,
advice, direction, agreement, instrument,
document, signature of Purchaser believed by
the Escrow Agent to be genuine, or any
assumption by the Escrow Agent that any
person purporting to give the Escrow Agent
any of the foregoing on behalf of Purchaser
in accordance with the provisions herein has
been duly authorized to do so; and
3
b. Assignee when relying upon any certificate,
instruction, statement, request, notice,
advice, direction, agreement, instrument,
document, signature of Assignee believed by
the Escrow Agent to be genuine, or any
assumption by the Escrow Agent that any
person purporting to give the Escrow Agent
any of the foregoing on behalf of Assignee
in accordance with the provisions herein has
been duly authorized to do so.
This Escrow Agreement hereby grants to the Escrow Agent a lien
on the Escrow Fund (which lien shall become invalid and unenforceable with
respect to any portion of the Escrow Fund wired or delivered to Purchaser which
shall receive such funds free and clear of such security interest) to enable the
Escrow Agent to secure the aforementioned indemnity.
The Escrow Agent shall be under no duty to institute or defend
any type of proceeding which may arise regarding this Escrow Agreement
ARTICLE V
The Escrow Agent may resign and be discharged from the duties
and obligations under this agreement at any time by giving no fewer than fifteen
(15) days written notice of such resignation to the parties herein, specifying
the date when such resignation shall take effect. Thereafter, the Escrow Agent
shall have no further obligation, except to hold the Escrow Fund as depository.
In the event of such resignation, the parties to this Escrow Agreement agree
that they will jointly appoint a banking corporation, trust company, attorney or
other qualified person as successor escrow agent within fifteen (15) days of
notice of such resignation. The Escrow Agent shall refrain from taking any
action until such Escrow Agent has received joint written instructions from the
parties herein, designating the successor escrow agent. Upon receipt of such
instruction, the Escrow Agent shall, as soon as all fees are received in full,
promptly deliver all of the escrowed Documents and the Escrow Funds to such
successor escrow agent in accordance with such instructions. Upon receipt of the
Escrow Fund, the successor escrow agent shall be bound by all the provisions
herein and shall promptly deliver a written instrument to each of the parties
detailing the terms in which the successor escrow agent agrees to be bound.

cardiology services (the "Mobile Business");
WHEREAS, Lessee has purchased certain assets of Lessor
pertaining to the Mobile Business, on the terms and conditions set forth in an
"Asset Purchase Agreement" (the "A/P Agreement") approved by the Bankruptcy
Court;
WHEREAS, certain assets not purchased under the A/P Agreement
but relating to the Mobile Business is comprised of equipment which is either
subject to a lien and security interest in favor of DVI Financial Services, Inc.
("DVI") or subject to a lease under which DVI is the Lessor, and certain of
which equipment Lessee desires to lease for a period of time until Lessee can
replace such equipment;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the
mutual covenants and promises contained herein, and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
parties hereto agree as follows:
I. THE LEASE
1.1 LEASE OF EQUIPMENT. Set forth on SCHEDULE 1 attached
hereto (the "SCHEDULE") is a list of ten (10) "Systems" as identified by a
separate line item on SCHEDULE 1. During the "Term" of this Lease (as defined in
Section 1.2), Lessor shall be obligated to lease to Lessee and Lessee shall
lease from Lessor, the Systems identified on SCHEDULE 1 as System nos. 1, 5, 11,
and 12, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and subject to
Lessor's maintenance obligation which maintenance obligation may be addressed,
in part, by the ability of Lessor to substitute any of the other Systems listed
on SCHEDULE 1 to replace any of System nos. 1, 5, 11, and/or 12 should one or
more of those four Systems require maintenance or repair more efficiently
addressed by the substitution of any of System nos. 6, 8, 9, 10, 13, or 14 for a
malfunctioning System. Such substitution, and the ability of Lessor to effect
such a substitution, shall not affect or increase the rent obligation payable by
Lessee hereunder. The Systems leased to Lessee, together with all substitutions,
replacements, repairs, parts and attachments, improvements and accessions
thereto are referred to as the "EQUIPMENT". Lessor shall at all times retain
such legal or equitable rights in the Equipment as it had prior to the execution
of this Agreement, it being expressly agreed by both parties that this Agreement
and the lease it represents (the "LEASE") is an agreement of lease (and/or
sublease) only.
1.2 TERM OF LEASE. The Term of this Lease shall begin on
the date when the conditions precedent to the effectiveness hereof (the
"Commencement Date") have been satisfied as set forth in Section 1.6 below and
shall continue until November 30, 2000, subject to extension on a week to week ,
and a System by System basis if on or before the date that is 3 calendar days
before the last day of the Term, Lessee sends notice to Lessor via fax or hand
delivery that the Lease will be extending the Term as to specified Systems for
another weeks, and such extension shall then extend the "Term" to the date
specified in the notice as to the indicated System. The term "COMMENCEMENT DATE"
shall mean the date upon which all of the following are true: (a) the A/P
Agreement
1.
has been approved by the Bankruptcy Court and all conditions precedent to the
effectiveness of the A/P Agreement shall have been satisfied, (b) this Agreement
has been approved by the Bankruptcy Court, and (c) Lessor has delivered
possession of the Equipment to Lessee.
1.3 RENTAL PAYMENTS. Lessee shall pay Lessor Rent at a
rate of $500 per week per System included as part of the leased "Equipment"
(I.E., four Systems as of the Commencement Date), payable in arrears on October
31, 2000 and November 30, 2000, and thereafter on the last day of each weekly
extension, if any. The first payment for the period between the Commencement
Date and November 1, 2000 shall be equal to a pro rated rental payment based on
$500 per System divided by 7 multiplied by the actual number of days from the
Commencement Date to November 1, 2000. All Rent and other amounts payable by
Lessee to Lessor hereunder shall be paid to Lessor's designee and assignee, DVI,
by check payable to DVI, at the address specified above, or at such other place
(or person or entity) as DVI may designate in writing to Lessee from time to
time.
1.4 RETURN OF EQUIPMENT. Upon expiration of the Term,
Lessee shall immediately return the Equipment to Lessor's designee, which
designee shall be DVI unless DVI designates otherwise in writing. In other
words, the designation of DVI as the designee for the return of the Equipment
may altered only by a writing signed by DVI. Lessee shall bear no expense for
the return of the Equipment. Lessee's sole responsibility shall be to make the
Equipment available for pick up by DVI or its designee at a mutually convenient
time.
1.5 ABATEMENT OF RENT. Notwithstanding the foregoing
paragraphs 1.2, 1.3, and 1.4, Lessee may elect at any time during the Term to
return individual Systems as identified on Schedule 1 without terminating the
Lease or the Term (except as to the individual System) and receive an abatement
of the Rent payable to DVI equal to $500 per System returned per week. To make
this election for any given individual System, on or before the Monday of the
calendar week at the end of which, Lessee intends to return a particular System,
Lessee shall notify DVI and Lessor in writing of the election to return a
particular identified System and Lessee shall make the System available to DVI
for pick up on the following Monday or on such other date as is mutually agreed
to by DVI and Lessee. No matter when the designated System is picked up by DVI,
however, all obligations of Lessee with respect to such designated System shall
cease after the first to occur of (1) the date DVI picks up the System, and (2)
the last calendar day of the week which marks the end of the Term for such
system due to termination in accordance with this Section 1.5. The abatement of
Rent shall be effective as of the Monday after notice in accordance with this
Paragraph 1.5 is given.
1.6 CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO LESSEE'S OBLIGATIONS. It
shall be a condition precedent to each and every obligation of Lessee hereunder,
that each of the following conditions precedent shall be an remain satisfied
(unless waived in writing by Lessee):

the Lessor's bankruptcy case shall have approved the execution and performance
by Lessor of this Agreement , of the A/P Agreement and of all the "Acquisition
Documents" executed pursuant to the A/P Agreement pursuant to an order or orders
that are in form and substance satisfactory to Lessee and which order or orders
shall be final and non-appealable (and as to which no appeal has been taken,
I.E., a "Final Order");
(b) Lessor shall have executed and delivered
this Agreement, the A/P Agreement, and each of the Acquisition Documents to

(d) All Leased Equipment shall have been
delivered to Lessee;
(e) All representations and warranties set forth
herein shall be true and correct; and
(f) No default or Event of Default by Lessee or

Management Concepts, Inc.).
II. LESSEE OBLIGATIONS
2.1 RENT; PAYMENTS UNCONDITIONAL. LESSEE'S SOLE PAYMENT
OBLIGATION UNDER THIS LEASE IS FOR RENT, INSURANCE (AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 2.6)
AND OTHER SPECIFICALLY IDENTIFIED PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS. ALL OTHER COSTS, EXPENSES
AND LIABILITIES RELATING TO THE EQUIPMENT, INCLUDING IN RESPECT OF TAXES (IF
ANY) AND MAINTENANCE, SHALL BE BORNE SOLELY BY LESSOR. LESSEE'S OBLIGATION TO
PAY ALL SUCH RENT AND OTHER SUMS HEREUNDER, AND THE RIGHTS OF LESSOR (OR DVI) IN
AND TO SUCH PAYMENTS, SHALL BE ABSOLUTE AND UNCONDITIONAL, AND SHALL NOT BE
SUBJECT TO ANY ABATEMENT, REDUCTION, SETOFF, DEFENSE, COUNTERCLAIM,
INTERRUPTION, DEFERMENT OR RECOUPMENT, FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER.
2.2 USE OF EQUIPMENT. Lessee shall use the Equipment
solely in the conduct of its business, in a manner and for the use contemplated
by the manufacturer thereof, and in compliance with all Requirements of Law of
every Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Equipment or Lessee
and with the provisions of all policies of insurance carried by Lessee pursuant
to Section 2.6.
2.3 DELIVERY; INSTALLATION; RETURN; MAINTENANCE AND
REPAIR. Lessor shall be solely responsible, at its own expense, for (a) making
the Equipment available to Lessee, and (b) the installation, de-installation,
maintenance and repair of the Equipment, such that the Equipment remains in
excellent working order and repair in keeping with the standards required by law
and all Governmental Authorities, and in keeping with the prudence dictated by
the nature of the Equipment as medical equipment. Lessor and/or DVI should it so
elect, shall be solely responsible, at its own expense, for re-taking possession
of the Equipment upon expiration or termination of the Lease Term and/or should
Lessee make an election as described in Paragraph 1.5. In the event that Lessor
does not perform maintenance services itself, Lessor shall ensure that the
Equipment is covered by a maintenance agreement, to the extent available, with
the manufacturer of the Equipment or other party reasonably acceptable to
Lessee. If Lessor or its agent fails to maintain the Equipment in accordance
with the standards set forth in this Agreement, and if no substitute System is
provided to Lessee that is satisfactory to Lessee, then Lessee may arrange for
such repair and maintenance and shall be reimbursed therefor from the escrow
(the "MAINTENANCE ESCROW") established and funded pursuant to the A/P Agreement
and the escrow agreement executed pursuant thereto. Should any of the Equipment
fail to be returned to DVI in good repair, condition and working order, ordinary
wear and tear excepted, Lessee shall have no liability therefor UNLESS Lessee
was grossly negligent or reckless in its use of the Equipment, but DVI may be
compensated therefor by any funds remaining in the Maintenance Escrow. If Lessee
was grossly negligent or reckless, Lessee shall be obligated to pay Lessor for
the out-of-pocket expenses Lessor (or DVI) incurs in bringing such Equipment up
to the status of such repair and working order as the Equipment would have had
but for Lessee's gross negligence or recklessness, but not in excess of the
Casualty Value for such Equipment
2.4 TAXES. Lessor shall pay, and hereby indemnifies
Lessee on a net, after-tax basis, against, and shall hold it harmless from, all
license fees, assessments, and sales, use, property, excise and other taxes and
charges, other than those measured by Lessee's net income, now and hereafter
imposed by any Governmental Authority upon or with respect to any of the
Equipment, or the possession, ownership, use or operation thereof, or any Lease,
or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by any Lease. Lessor shall
file personal property tax returns, and shall pay personal property taxes
payable with respect to the Equipment.
2.5 LOSS OF EQUIPMENT. Lessor assumes the risk that any
item of Equipment becomes lost, stolen, damaged, destroyed or otherwise unfit or
unavailable for use from any cause whatsoever other than Lessee's gross
negligence or recklessness (an "EVENT OF LOSS"). So long as an item of Equipment
is unavailable to Lessee due to an Event of Loss, Lessee shall have no liability
to Lessor or DVI to pay Rent therefor. However, should any insurance be payable
on account of such Event of Loss, then Lessee shall be entitled to receive or
retain from such insurance proceeds an amount equal to what is necessary for
Lessee to lease replacement Equipment, less any Rent payable, for the remainder
of the Term and DVI, shall receive the remainder.
3.
2.6 INSURANCE. Lessor shall retain for the Lease Term at
its own expense, property damage and liability insurance and insurance against
loss or damage to the Equipment as a result of fire, explosion, theft, vandalism
and such other risks of loss as are normally maintained on equipment of the type
leased hereunder by companies carrying on the business in which Lessee is
engaged, in such amounts, in such form and with such insurers as shall be
satisfactory to Lessee (and DVI) and Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for the pro
rated cost for each month a System remains subject to this Lease. In other
words, should Lessee return a System as described in Paragraph 1.5, the
obligation to reimburse Lessor for the insurance attributable to the individual
returned System shall cease. Each insurance policy shall name Lessor (or DVI) as
insured and Lessee and its assignees as additional insureds and loss payees
thereof as their interest may appear, and shall provide that it may not be
cancelled or altered without at least 30 days' prior written notice thereof
being given to Lessee and DVI (or 10 days' notice, in the event of non-payment
of premium).
2.7 LESSEE NEGATIVE COVENANTS. Without the prior written
consent of Lessor and DVI, which consent as it pertains to clause (c) below
shall not be unreasonably withheld, Lessee shall not: (a) assign, transfer, or
otherwise dispose of any Equipment, the Lease or any rights or obligations
thereunder; (b) create or incur, or permit to exist, any Lien with respect to
any of the Equipment; (c) cause or permit any of the Equipment to be moved from
the locations specified by Lessee in writing to Lessor (and DVI); or (d) cause
or permit any of the Equipment to be moved outside the United States.
2.8 IDENTIFICATION. Lessee shall place and maintain
permanent markings provided by Lessor on the Equipment evidencing ownership,
security and other interests therein, as specified from time to time by Lessor.
2.9 ALTERATIONS AND MODIFICATIONS. Lessee shall not make
any additions, attachments, alterations or improvements to the Equipment without
the prior written consent of Lessor, not to be unreasonably withheld. Any
addition, attachment, alteration or improvement to any item of Equipment shall
belong to and become the property of Lessor unless, at the request of Lessor, it
is removed prior to the return of such item of Equipment by Lessee. Lessee shall
be responsible for all costs relating to such removal and shall restore such
item of Equipment to the condition and value otherwise required hereunder.
2.10 PERSONAL PROPERTY. Lessee acknowledges and represents
that the Equipment shall be and remain personal property, notwithstanding the
manner by which it may be attached or affixed to realty, and Lessee shall do all
acts and enter into all agreements necessary to ensure that the Equipment
remains personal property. If requested by Lessor with respect to any item of
Equipment, Lessee shall obtain and deliver to Lessor equipment access
agreements, satisfactory to Lessor, from all persons claiming any interest in
the real property on which such item of Equipment is installed or located..
III. DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
3.1 EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The occurrence of any of the
following shall constitute an "EVENT OF DEFAULT" hereunder: (a) Lessee fails to
pay any Rent or other amount due under this Lease within five days after it
becomes due and payable; and (b) Lessee fails to perform any other covenant,
condition or agreement made by it under this Lease, and such failure continues
for 10 days.
3.2 REMEDIES. If an Event of Default exists, Lessor may
exercise any one or more of the following remedies, in addition to those arising
under applicable law: (a) proceed, by appropriate court action, to enforce
performance by Lessee of the applicable covenants of this Lease; (b) terminate
the Lease by 10 days' notice to Lessee and, unless Event of Default has been
cured within that time, take possession of any or all of the Equipment and, for
such purpose, enter upon any premises where the Equipment is located with or
without notice or process of law and free from all claims by Lessee or any other
person, or (c) require Lessee to assemble the Equipment and deliver it to DVI;
and (d) recover any and all accrued and unpaid Rent and other amounts owing
under the Lease for the remainder of the Term.
IV. MISCELLANEOUS
4.1 RIGHT TO USE. So long as no Event of Default exists,
neither Lessor nor its assignee (including DVI) shall interfere with Lessee's
right to use the Equipment under this Lease, nor with the ability of
4.
Lessee to substitute one of the Systems listed on SCHEDULE 1 (other than System
nos. 1, 5, 11, and 12) for System nos. 1, 5, 11, and 12, should any of the
latter fail to meet the requirements of Lessee.
4.2 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. Each right and remedy granted to
Lessor under any Lease shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right or
remedy existing in equity, at law, by virtue of statute or otherwise, and may be
exercised by Lessor from time to time concurrently or independently and as often
and in such order as Lessor may elect. Any failure or delay on the part of
Lessor in exercising any such right or remedy shall not operate as a waiver
thereof.
4.3 SECTION HEADINGS; INTERPRETATION. Section headings
are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not affect any
construction or interpretation of any Lease Document. In interpreting the
provisions of any Lease Document, (a) the term "including" is not limiting; (b)
references to "person" include individuals, corporations and other legal persons
and entities; (c) the singular of defined terms includes the plural and
vice-versa; and (d) section and paragraph references are to the document in
which such reference appears, unless the context otherwise requires.
4.4 ENTIRE LEASE. This Agreement constitutes the entire
agreement between Lessor and Lessee with respect to the lease of the Equipment.
No waiver or amendment of, or any consent with respect to, any provision of any
this Lease or any document executed pursuant hereto (each a "LEASE DOCUMENT")
shall bind either party unless set forth in a writing, specifying such waiver,
consent, or amendment, signed by both parties.
4.5 SEVERABILITY. Should any provision of any Lease
Document be or become invalid, illegal, or unenforceable under applicable law,
the other provisions of such Lease Document shall not be affected and shall
remain in full force and effect.
4.6 GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION. THIS AGREEMENT AND
THE OTHER LEASE DOCUMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED IN ALL RESPECTS BY THE LAWS OF THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA. LESSOR AND LESSEE WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
LITIGATION ARISING FROM ANY LEASE DOCUMENT.
4.7 BANKRUPTCY COURT APPROVAL. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, this Agreement, and all other documents or instruments
executed concurrently herewith, shall not be effective until they have been
approved by the Bankruptcy Court and the order approving same shall have become
a final order such that no appeal has been filed or stay granted with respect
thereto.

hereby waives any requirement that the Company (or Digirad Corporation) submit
proof of the economic value of any trade secret or post a bond or other
security.

EXHIBIT G
INDEMNITY AGREEMENT
THIS INDEMNITY AGREEMENT is executed as of this 29th day of
September, 2000 by JEFFREY MANDLER ("Mandler") in favor of Digirad Imaging
Systems, Inc. and its affiliates (including, without limitation, Digirad
Corporation) as a material inducement to Digirad Imaging Systems, Inc. ("DIS")
to enter into and perform that certain Asset Purchase Agreement (the "A/P
Agreement") between DIS, Cardiovascualar Concepts, P.C. ("CVC") and Nuclear
Imaging Services, Inc. ("NIS" and together with CVC, referred to as the
"Company") and dated on or about the date hereof. Capitalized terms not
otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the A/P
Agreement.
1. INDEMNIFICATION. Mandler hereby agrees that he shall
indemnify, defend and hold harmless DIS and Digirad Corporation and their
respective officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns
(collectively the "Indemnitees") from and against any and all costs, losses,
Liabilities, damages, lawsuits, deficiencies, claims and expenses, including
without limitation, interest, penalties, costs of mitigation, clean-up or
remedial action, attorneys' fees and all amounts paid to third parties in
investigation, defense or settlement of any of the foregoing (collectively, the
"Damages"), suffered by any of the Indemnitees, incurred in connection with,
arising out of, resulting from or incident to:
(a) any breach of any covenant, representation,
warranty or agreement or the inaccuracy of any representation, made by
NIS, CVC, Mandler, or any of their respective employees, agents or
representatives in or pursuant to the A/P Agreement or the other
Acquisition Documents;
(b) the filing of a petition under title 11 of
the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") by or against Medical
Management Concepts, Inc. ("MMC") to the extent such Damages could have
been avoided or reduced by any Indemnitee if MMC had entered into the
agreements that MMC entered into with any of DIS, Digirad Corporation,
or any of their affiliates on or about the date hereof (the "Subject
Agreements") AFTER such petition of MMC was filed rather than before,
including without limitation, any fees, costs or losses or other
Damages incurred by and Indemnitee (i) in defending their respective
rights in such ensuing bankruptcy of MMC, (ii) in paying, whether
voluntarily or involuntarily, due to practical, legal or business need
or expedience, any debts or obligations of MMC that could have been
compromised or discharged if MMC had filed bankruptcy before the
Subject Agreements were entered into, or (iii) in protecting its rights
against third parties where the bankruptcy court's approval (upheld on
appeal, if any) of the Subject Agreements could have eliminated or
reduced such Damages.
2. PROCEDURE. Should any Indemnitee desire to assert a
claim for indemnification, such Indemnitee shall, if it is not DIS or Digirad
Corporation, first give notice of the claim to either DIS or Digirad
Corporation. If DIS or Digirad Corporation does not oppose assertion of the
claim by the Indemnitee, either DIS or Digirad shall provide written notice to
Mandler of the claim (the "Claim Notice"). Upon receipt of a Claim Notice,
Mandler
1
shall have ten (10) days to object, in writing, to such claim (the "Dispute
Notice"), providing notice thereof to the party asserting the claim and, if
different, to DIS and Digirad Corporation. If the claim is not timely disputed
by Mandler, the Indemnitee asserting a right to indemnification shall have the
right to enforce its indemnity rights as defined hereunder. If Mandler timely
provides a Dispute Notice, Mandler and the party or parties asserting the
indemnification claim and DIS and Digirad Corporation (if they choose to
participate in the resolution of the dispute) shall attempt in good faith to
agree upon the rights or the respective parties with respect to such claim. If
the parties agree as to the resolution of such claim, they shall prepare a
memorandum setting forth the terms of such resolution and signed by each party.
If no agreement is reached with thirty (30) days after delivery of the Dispute
Notice, any of Mandler, the Indemnitee seeking indemnification, DIS or Digirad
Corporation may demand arbitration of the matter and the matter shall be settled
by arbitration conducted in accordance with this Agreement. The decision of the
arbitrators as to the validity and amount of any claim shall be final, binding
and conclusive upon the parties to the arbitration.
3. DEFENSE OF CLAIMS. If any Action or Proceeding is
filed or initiated against any Indemnitee, written notice thereof shall be given
to Mandler (and, if different, to DIS and Digirad Corporation) as promptly as
practicable (and in any event within ten (10) days after the service of the
citation or summons); provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnitee to
give timely notice to Mandler shall not affect rights to indemnification
hereunder except to the extent that Mandler has been materially prejudiced by
such failure to give timely notice, and the failure of the Indemnitee to give
either DIS or Digirad Corporation notice shall (a) oblige Mandler to notify DIS
and Digirad (if they are not the Indemnitee notifying Mandler of the Action or
Proceeding), and (b) the 15 day period referred to below within which Mandler
must assume the defense of the Action or Proceeding shall be extended to 25 days
if and only if prior to the 15th day, Mandler has given notice to DIS and
Digirad Corporation where the Indemnitee has failed to do so. After such notice,
if Mandler shall acknowledge in writing to the Indemnitee providing notice to
Mandler that Mandler shall be obligated under the terms of his indemnity
hereunder in connection with such Action or Proceeding, then Mandler shall be
entitled, if he so elects, to take control of the defense and investigation of
such Action or Proceeding and to employ and engage attorneys of his own choice
to handle and defend the same, such attorneys to be reasonably satisfactory to
the Indemnitee giving notice of the Action or Proceeding (and, if different, to
DIS and Digirad Corporation), at Mandler's cost, risk and expense (unless (i)
Mandler has failed to assume the defense of such Action or Proceeding or (ii)
the named parties to such Action or Proceeding include both Mandler and the
subject Indemnitee, and such Indemnitee and its counsel determine in good faith
that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such Indemnitee that
are different from or additional to those available to Mandler and that joint
representation would be inappropriate), and to compromise or settle such Action
or Proceeding, which compromise or settlement shall be made only with the
written consent of the subject Indemnitee (and, if different, DIS and Digirad
Corporation), such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. The subject
Indemnitee (and, if different, DIS and Digirad Corporation) may withhold such
consent if such compromise or settlement would materially adversely affect the
conduct of the business of any of the subject Indemnitee, DIS and/or Digirad
Corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the subject Indemnitee (and, if
different, DIS and Digirad Corporation) may not withhold consent if such
compromise or settlement includes an unconditional release of claims against the
subject Indemnitee (and, if different, DIS and Digirad Corporation). If (i)
Mandler fails to assume the defense of such Action or Proceeding within
2.
fifteen (15) days after receipt of notice thereof pursuant to this Agreement, or
(ii) the named parties to such Action or Proceeding include both Mandler and the
subject Indemnitee and the subject Indemnitee and his, her or its counsel
determine in good faith that there may be one or more legal defenses available
to such Indemnitee that are different from or additional to those available to
Mandler and that joint representation would be inappropriate, the subject
Indemnitee against which such Action or Proceeding has been filed or initiated
will (upon delivering notice to such effect to Mandler) have the right to
undertake, at Mandler's cost and expense, the defense, compromise or settlement
of such Action or Proceeding on behalf of and for the account and risk of
Mandler; provided, however, that such Action or Proceeding shall not be
compromised or settled without the written consent of Mandler, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event the subject Indemnitee assumes
defense of the Action or Proceeding, such Indemnitee will keep Mandler
reasonably informed of the progress of any such defense, compromise or
settlement and will consult with, when appropriate, and consider any reasonable
advice from, Mandler of any such defense, compromise or settlement.
4. LIABILITY. Mandler shall be liable for any settlement
of any action effected pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement and for
any final judgment (subject to any right of appeal), and Mandler agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless the subject Indemnitee (and all Indemnitees) from
and against any Damages by reason of such settlement or judgment. Furthermore,
regardless of whether Mandler or any given Indemnitee takes up the defense,
Mandler will pay reasonable costs and expenses in connection with the defense,
compromise or settlement for any Action or Proceeding under this Agreement.
5. COOPERATION. Each Indemnitee shall cooperate in all
reasonable respects with Mandler and his attorneys in the investigation, trial
and defense of any Action or Proceeding and any appeal arising therefrom;
provided, however, that any Indemnitee that is named in such Action or
Proceeding, and DIS and Digirad Corporation may, at its own cost, participate in
the investigation, trial and defense of such Action or Proceeding and any appeal
arising therefrom. Mandler shall pay all expenses due under this Agreement as
such expenses become due.
6. SECURITY. As collateral for and to secure (a) the
payment and performance of Mandler under this Agreement, and (b) any and all
obligations Mandler may have or acquire under the A/P Agreement and the other
Acquisition Documents, Mandler hereby grants to DIS and Digirad Corporation a
security interest (which shall be of no less than first priority) in all
presently owned or hereafter acquired capital stock of Mandler in either DIS or
Digirad Corporation, together with all dividends and distributions received at
any time by Mandler on account of such capital stock, and together with whatever
may be received by Mandler on account of said capital stock (whether cash,
additional stock, or other personal property of any kind), together with all
proceeds of any of the foregoing. In addition, Mandler covenants and agrees to
execute and deliver to DIS and Digirad Corporation such further and additional
documentation as either DIS or Digirad Corporation may reasonably request to
provide DIS and Digirad a duly perfected, first priority security interest in
all such collateral described in this Section 6.

trust and will not use or disclose any Proprietary Information or anything
relating to it without the prior written consent of an officer of the Company.
Consultant acknowledges that any disclosure or unauthorized use of Proprietary
Information will constitute a material breach of this Agreement and cause

relief.
d. All Company Materials shall be the sole

any event upon completion of the Consulting Services, Consultant shall deliver

other physical property or any reproduction of such property used in connection
with the performance of the Consulting Services. At all times before or after
completion of the Consulting Services, the Company shall have the right to
examine any materials relating thereto to ensure Consultant's compliance with
the provisions of this Agreement.
e. Consultant agrees to perform, during and
after the term of this Agreement, all acts deemed necessary or desirable by the
Company to permit and assist it, in evidencing, perfecting, obtaining,
maintaining, defending and enforcing Rights in any and all countries. Such acts

cooperation in legal proceedings. Consultant hereby irrevocably designates and
appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents, as

of Consultant, to execute and file any documents and to do all other lawfully
permitted acts to further the above purposes with the same legal force and
effect as if executed by Consultant.
f. Consultant represents that performance of
all the terms of this Agreement will not breach any agreement to keep in
confidence proprietary information acquired by Consultant in confidence or in
trust prior to the execution of this Agreement. Consultant has
-4-
not entered into, and Consultant agrees not to enter into, any agreement either
written or oral that conflicts or might conflict with Consultant's performance
of the Services under this Agreement.

act in the capacity of an independent contractor. The Company shall not exercise

MMC shall provide the Company with Medical Billing and
Collection Services as described in this Agreement, and (a) any other services

c. OTHER. Among the Services that fall within this

EXHIBIT B
PAYMENT FOR SERVICES
In consideration of the two categories of Services provided to
the Company by MMC as identified in Exhibit A, the Company shall pay MMC, on a
monthly basis the following:
FOR BILLING AND COLLECTIONS SERVICES (CATEGORY 1):
The Company shall pay to MMC a fee equal to five percent (5%)
of "Estimated Net Revenue" as that term is defined below, which Estimated Net
Revenue figure is subject to adjustment as set forth below.
FOR SALES, MARKETING AND OPERATIONS SERVICES (CATEGORY 2):
So long as the Sales Services Initial Term (or any month to
month extensions thereof) is in effect, the Company shall pay MMC as and when
set forth in Section 1.3 of the Agreement, a fee equal to twelve and one-half
percent (12.5%) of the "Estimated Net Revenue" (as that term is defined below)
attributable to the applicable month for which payment is due, which Estimated
Net Revenue figure is subject to adjustment as set forth below.
ADJUSTMENT OF PAYMENTS DUE TO ACTUAL COLLECTIONS:
Sixty days after the end of each calendar quarter, the
Estimated Net Revenue figures calculated for each month during that quarter will
be reviewed and compared to the actual collections on account of the billings
made during the months in such quarter. If the payments to MMC over the course
of the quarter (in the aggregate) for either category of Services was too low
(an "Underpayment") because the Estimated Net Revenue figure in each of the
three month in the quarter was less than the actual collections received on
account of billings generated in those months, then the Company shall pay to MMC
the amount of the Underpayment within the next 15 days (unless there remains
outstanding some portion of the prepayment provided for in Section 1.3, in which
case the Underpayment amount will be set off to reduce the pre-payment balance).
If the payment to MMC based on the Net Estimated Revenue figures during the
course of the quarter was too high (an "Overpayment"), then the Overpayment
amount shall be deducted from any sums otherwise due or coming due from the
Company to MMC or, if none (such as, for example, because the Term of the
Agreement has ended) upon demand by the Company.
If after the conclusion of the 60 day period referred to
above, there remains any uncollected sums, MMC shall continue to maintain the
records for these accounts and when and if any such accounts ("Delinquents
Accounts") are collected by MMC, MMC shall be entitled to receive (unless the
Company is entitled to an offset of some type) 12.5% of the amount actually
collected if MMC is still providing Sales Marketing and Operations Services, and
5% of the amount actually collected if MMC is still providing Billing and
Collections Services. In the event a third party other than MMC has collected
these sums, the amount payable to the third party shall be deducted from sums
otherwise payable to MMC.
ADJUSTMENTS DUE TO OPEN TERRITORIES.
Should there be a sales territory for which a sales
representative is currently responsible that is later vacated for a period
longer than 30 days (an "Open Direct Sales Territory"), payment in accordance
with the foregoing formula will be reduced in an amount equal to the salary and
benefits that would have been payable to such a representative pro rated for the
full amount of time (including the 30-day period that triggered this remedy)
that the territory is "open." Should MMC fill the vacant position, MMC must give
notice to the Company of the replacement and if the Company has not obtained
substitute coverage for the territory, the payments to MMC will return to the
formula set forth above.
DEFINITIONS:
"ESTIMATED NET REVENUE" means an estimation performed on or
immediately following the end of any given calendar month of the net revenue
generated during such month then ending determined by calculating the gross sums
billed to customers of the Mobile Business by MMC for that particular month in
the "Applicable Markets" defined below, less "Contract Allowances" (defined
below) and "Bad Debt Losses" (as defined below) as determined from time to time
for the particular month.
"APPLICABLE MARKETS" refers the markets in the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania and the States of New Jersey, Maryland, North Carolina, and
Delaware and in the District of Columbia.
"CONTRACT ALLOWANCES" means an amount based on a percentage
agreed upon by MMC and the Company and based on MMC's historical performance by
which gross billings are to be reduced due to discounts and contractual
reductions. Contract Allowances may be adjusted monthly based on MMC's
historical performance.
"BAD DEBT ALLOWANCES" means an amount based on a percentage
agreed upon by MMC and the Company and based on MMC's historical experience by
which gross billings are to be reduced due to poor payment history or
creditworthiness of customers. Bad Debt Allowances may be adjusted monthly based
on MMC's historical experience and the customer mix.

condition to providing services to client, to execute a separate agreement
confirming that no conflict of interest exists.

remedy shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any additional rights,
remedies, or damages, to which MMC is or may be entitled at law or in equity.

Company shall together determine the method, details and means of performing the
Consulting Services to be provided under this Agreement. Except as set forth in

diligent and competent manner and shall comply with all laws and regulations
applicable thereto.

Agreement. In the event that the Consultant deems it appropriate to perform on

will use the Company's then-current names for the Services (but will not
represent or imply that he or any other person or entity other than the Company
is the Company or is a part of the Company and will obtain the Company's prior
written approval of any such use) and will not add to, delete from or modify any
sales or marketing documentation or forms provided by the Company, except with
the prior written consent of the Company. Consultant will not otherwise use or
register (or make any filing with respect to) any trademark, name or other
designation relevant to the subject matter of this Agreement anywhere in the
world. Consultant will not contest anywhere in the world the use by the Company
or use authorized by the Company of any trademark, name or other designation
relevant or similar to the subject matter of this Agreement or application or

other marks used in connection with the Company or the Services. Consultant
further acknowledges and agrees that all of its use of such trademarks, names or
other designations shall inure to the benefit of the Company.
5. COMPENSATION.
a. STOCK INCENTIVES. As an inducement to
Consultant to enter into this Agreement and the Non-Competition Agreement, and
to perform the Consulting Services in an exceptional manner, Consultant shall
receive common stock in DIGIRAD CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation ("Digirad"),
the parent corporation of the Company up to an aggregate number of 150,000
shares, provided Consultant meets the terms and conditions of the "earn out"
criteria described below:
"EARN OUT" CRITERIA. If the "Revenue" (defined below)
actually collected by the Company on account of the
Mobile Business acquired by the Company from NIS and
CVC pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement
dated as of September 29, 2000 exceeds $5,500,000
during the first 12 calendar months of the Consulting
Period, Consultant shall receive 50,000 shares of
common stock. If such Revenue as is collected by the
Company during the second 12 calendar-month period of
the Consulting Period exceeds the actual Revenue
collected during the first 12 calendar-month period
of the Consulting Period by at least 10%, Consultant
shall receive an additional 50,000 shares of common
stock of Digirad. If such Revenue as is collected by
the Company during the third 12 calendar-month period
of the Consulting Period exceeds the actual Revenue
collected during the second 12 calendar-month period
of the Consulting Period by at least 10%, Consultant
shall receive an additional 50,000 shares of common
stock of Digirad for a potential aggregate of 150,000
shares. If the Revenue collected in the second 12
months of the Consulting Period is insufficient to
entitle Consultant to the second tranche of $50,000
shares of the Company, Consultant shall be eligible
during the third 12 months of the Consulting Period
to receive a second
tranche of 50,000 shares if and only if the third
year goal is met at the same level as though the
second year's goal had been met.
For the purposes of this section 5, "Revenue" is defined as cash collected by or
on behalf of the Company for services billed during the particular 12-month
period tested, measured at the conclusion of the third calendar month after the
12-month period tested and which Revenue has been generated by the Mobile
Business from services rendered in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, North Carolina,
Delaware, Maryland, and the District of Columbia only.
b. REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES. The Company shall
reimburse the Consultant for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by
the Consultant in connection with the performance of the Consulting Service.
Reimbursement of such approved expenses shall be paid by the Company within
fifteen (15) business days after receipt of a written statement of the
Consultant setting forth (in reasonable detail) the description and amount of
such incurred expenses.
c. NO OTHER COMPENSATION. The Company shall not
be under any obligation to provide any salary, benefits or other compensation to
Consultant other than as explicitly set forth herein.
6. CONFIDENTIAL NON-DISCLOSURE. During the Consulting
Period and at all times thereafter, Consultant agrees as follows:
a. DEFINITION OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.
Consultant understands that the Company possesses and will possess Proprietary
Information which is important to its business. For purposes of this Agreement,
"Proprietary Information" is information that was or will be developed, created,
or discovered by or on behalf of the Company, or which became or will become
known by, or was or is conveyed to the Company, which has commercial value in
the Company's business. "Proprietary Information" includes, but is not limited
to, information about trade secrets, product specifications, data, procedures,
know-how, formulae, compositions, processes, designs, sketches, photographs,
graphs, drawings, samples, inventions, models, documentation, techniques,
diagrams, flowcharts, new products and new technology information, product
prototypes, product copies, manufacturing, development or marketing techniques,
material development or marketing timetables, strategies and development plans,
and ideas, past, current and planned research and development, current and
planned manufacturing distribution methods and processes, customer lists,
current and anticipated customer requirements, price lists, market studies,
business plans, computer software and programs computer programs, software,
source code, object code, algorithms, designs, technology, ideas, know-how,
processes, formulas, compositions, data, techniques, improvements, inventions
(whether patentable or not), works of authorship, business and product
development plans, the salaries and terms of compensation of Company employees
and other consultants, customers and other information concerning the Company's
actual or anticipated business, research or development, or which is received in
confidence by or for the Company from any other person. Consultant understands
that the consulting arrangement between Consultant and the Company creates a
relationship of confidence and trust between Consultant and the Company with
respect to Proprietary Information.
b. Consultant understands that the Company
possesses or will possess "Company Materials" which are important to its
business. For purposes of this Agreement, "Company Materials" are documents or
other media or tangible items that contain or embody Proprietary Information or
any other information concerning the business, operations or plans of the
Company, whether such documents have been prepared by Consultant or by others.
"Company Materials" include, but are not limited to, blueprints, drawings,
photographs, charts, graphs, notebooks, customer lists, computer disks, tapes or
printouts, sound recordings and other printed, typewritten or handwritten
documents, as well as samples, prototypes, models, products and the like.
c. All Proprietary Information and all title,
patents, patent rights, copyrights, mask work rights, trade secret rights, and
other intellectual property and rights anywhere in the world (collectively
"Rights") in connection therewith shall be the sole property of the Company.
Consultant hereby assigns to the Company any Rights Consultant may have or
acquire in such Proprietary Information. At all times, both during the term of
this Agreement and after its termination, Consultant will keep in confidence and
trust and will not use or disclose any Proprietary Information or anything
relating to it without the prior written consent of an officer of the Company.
Consultant acknowledges that any disclosure or unauthorized use of Proprietary
Information will constitute a material breach of this Agreement and cause
substantial harm to the Company for which damages would not be a fully adequate
remedy, and, therefore, in the event of any such breach, in addition to other
available remedies, the Company shall have the right (without posting any bond
or other security) to obtain temporary, preliminary and/or permanent injunctive
relief.
d. All Company Materials shall be the sole
property of the Company. Consultant agrees that during the term of this
Agreement, Consultant will not remove any Company Materials from the business
premises of the Company or deliver any Company Materials to any person or entity
outside the Company, without the Company's prior express written consent.
Consultant further agrees that, immediately upon the Company's request and in
any event upon completion of the Consulting Services, Consultant shall deliver
to the Company all Company Materials, any documents, apparatus, equipment and
other physical property or any reproduction of such property used in connection
with the performance of the Consulting Services. At all times before or after
completion of the Consulting Services, the Company shall have the right to
examine any materials relating thereto to ensure Consultant's compliance with
the provisions of this Agreement.
e. Consultant agrees to perform, during and
after the term of this Agreement, all acts deemed necessary or desirable by the
Company to permit and assist it, in evidencing, perfecting, obtaining,
maintaining, defending and enforcing Rights in any and all countries. Such acts
may include, but are not limited to, execution of documents and assistance or
cooperation in legal proceedings. Consultant hereby irrevocably designates and
appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents, as
Consultant's agents and attorneys-in-fact to act for and in behalf and instead
of Consultant, to execute and file any documents and to do all other lawfully
permitted acts to further the above purposes with the same legal force and
effect as if executed by Consultant.
f. Consultant represents that performance of
all the terms of this Agreement will not breach any agreement to keep in
confidence proprietary information acquired by Consultant in confidence or in
trust prior to the execution of this Agreement. Consultant has not entered into,
and Consultant agrees not to enter into, any agreement either written or oral
that conflicts or might conflict with Consultant's performance of the Services
under this Agreement.
7. NON-COMPETITION. In addition to the obligations of
Consultant under the Non-Competition Agreement, and not in lieu thereof,
Consultant agrees that commencing on the execution of this Agreement and
continuing until three years after the Consultation Period, Consultant will not,
without the express written permission of Company, as an employee, agent,
consultant, advisor, independent contractor, general partner, officer, director,
stockholder, investor, lender or guarantor of any corporation, partnership or
other entity, or in any other capacity directly or indirectly:
a. Participate or engage in the design,
development, manufacturing, production, marketing, sale or servicing of any
product, or the provision of any service, that directly relates to Mobile
Nuclear Imaging Services (the "Business") in the United States or in any country
in the world;
b. Induce or attempt to induce any person who
at the time of such inducement is an employee of the Company or the Company's
subsidiaries to perform work or services for any other person or entity other
than the Company or its subsidiaries;
c. Induce or attempt to induce any customer or
client of either the Company or NIS to cease doing business with the Company or
to switch some or all of their business from Company to another provider of
services similar to those provided by the Company, or
d. Permit the name of Consultant to be used in
connection with a competitive Business.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Consultant will not be prohibited from competing
with the Company in the United States or another country, if the Company or its
affiliates, or any entity deriving title to their good will or capital stock,
ceases to carry on a like Business therein; provided, however, that this
exception to Consultant's covenant not to compete only applies to the state or
country in which the Business of the Company was previously but is no longer
carried on and does not affect the enforceability of this Paragraph in the
states or countries in which the Business is continued.
As partial consideration for the foregoing provisions of this
Section 7, the Company agrees that so long as Consultant does not breach any
provision of this Section 7 (or otherwise materially breach this Agreement or
the Non-Competition Agreement), Consultant's entitlement to receive the stock
referred to in Section 5 shall be subject to a minimum distribution of 100,000
shares which, if not previously distributed to Consultant, shall be distributed
at the conclusion of the 3 years during which Consultant is not permitted to
compete as described in this Section 7.
8. SAVINGS CLAUSE. If any restriction set forth in
Section 7 above is held to be unreasonable, then Consultant agrees, and hereby
submits, to the reduction and limitation of such prohibition to such area or
period as shall be deemed reasonable. Consultant agrees that during the period
Consultant renders services to the Company, Consultant will not engage in any
employment, business, or activity that is in any way competitive with the Mobile
Business of the Company (or natural or likely expansions thereof), and
Consultant will not assist any other person or organization in competing with
the Company or in preparing to engage in competition with the Mobile Business of
the Company (or natural or likely expansions thereof).
9. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. Consultant expressly agrees that
the covenants set forth in Sections 7(a) and 7(c) are reasonable and necessary
to protect the Company and its legitimate business interests, and to prevent the
unauthorized dissemination of confidential Information to competitors of the
Company. Consultant also agrees that the Company will be irreparably harmed and
that damages alone cannot adequately compensate the Company if there is a
violation of Sections 6 or 7 by Consultant, and that injunctive relief against
Consultant is essential for the protection of the Company. Therefore, in the
event of any such breach, it is agreed that, in addition to any other remedies
available, the Company shall be entitled as a matter of right to injunctive
relief in any court of competent jurisdiction, plus attorneys' fees actually
incurred for the securing of such relief.
10. TERMINATION OF CONSULTING PERIOD. As noted above, the
Consulting Period shall end at the end of the Initial Period plus each
Subsequent Period as becomes effective, unless the period is terminated sooner
under this Section 10. The Consulting period may be terminated prior to the
conclusion of the Initial Period or any ensuing Subsequent Period as and when
set forth below:
a. Immediately upon the liquidation or
dissolution of the Company, or the transfer of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company to a third party, other than the transfer to an entity
controlled by the Company or Digirad, the Consulting Period shall terminate, in
which case, the remaining stock subject to the earn out for any period for which
Consultant may still be eligible shall be promptly transferred to Consultant as
full compensation for and discharge of any damages Consultant may suffer as a
result of the early termination of the Consulting Period;
b. Thirty (30) days after Consultant has
received written notice from the Company the Consultant has materially breached
this Agreement, in which case, Consultant shall not be entitled to receive any
further compensation or stock as provided for in this Agreement. Examples of
material breach shall include, but not be limited, breaches of Section 6 or 7 of
this Agreement,
c. Sixty (60) days after Consultant provides
notice to the Company that Consultant desires to cease providing services to the
Company hereunder, in which case: (i) if Consultant provides such notice of
termination of the Consulting Period without cause, Consultant shall not be
entitled to receive any further compensation or stock as provided for in this
Agreement, and (ii) if Consultant provides such notice of termination of the
Consulting Period due to alleged material breach by the Company, the remaining
stock subject to the earn out for any period for which Consultant may still be
eligible shall be promptly transferred to
Consultant as full compensation for and discharge of any damages Consultant may
suffer as a result of the early termination of the Consulting Period. Material
breach by the Company shall be limited to the failure to deliver stock to
Consultant as set forth herein,
11. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. Nothing herein contained
shall be deemed to create an agency, joint venture, partnership or franchise
relationship between parties hereto. Consultant acknowledges that it is an
independent contractor, is not an agent or employee of the Company and is not
entitled to any Company employment rights or benefits and is not authorized to
act on behalf of Company. Consultant shall be solely responsible for any and all
tax obligations of Consultant, including but not limited to, all city, state and
federal income taxes, social security withholding tax and other self employment
tax incurred by Consultant. Company shall not dictate the work hours of
Consultant during the term of this Agreement. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, the parties hereby acknowledge and agree that Company shall
have no right to control the manner, means, or method by which Consultant
performs the services called for by this Agreement. Rather, Company shall be
entitled only to direct Consultant with respect to the elements of services to
be performed by Consultant and the results to be derived by Company, to inform
Consultant as to where and when such services shall be performed, and to review
and assess the performance of such services by Consultant for the limited
purposes of assuring that such services have been performed and confirming that
such results were satisfactory. Company shall be entitled to exercise broad
general power of supervision and control over the results of work performed by
Consultant's personnel to ensure satisfactory performance, including the right
to inspect, the right to stop work, the right to make suggestions or
recommendations as to the details of the work, and the right to propose
modifications to the work.
12. INDEMNIFICATION. The Consultant shall indemnify,
defend and hold harmless the Company and its partners, shareholders, officers,
directors, employees, affiliates, agents, representatives, attorneys, successors
and assigns, and each of them (each a "Company Indemnitee"), from and against
all losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses of any nature whatsoever
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs related
thereto) which any such Company Indemnitee may suffer or incur as the result of
the negligence or misconduct of the Consultant in the performance of the
Consulting Services under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the parties specifically agree that the indemnity provisions of this
Section 9 shall include any and all losses, liabilities, damages, costs,
expenses and lost profits incurred by the Company associated with any loss of
the services of the Consultant. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold
Consultant harmless from and against all suits, claims, actions, demands,
losses, liabilities, damages, settlements, penalties, fines, lost profits, costs
and/or expenses, including without limitation reasonable legal expenses and
attorneys' fees incurred by Consultant directly or indirectly as a result of the
Company's conduct of the Mobile Business
13. SURVIVAL OF CERTAIN RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS.
Termination of the Consulting period shall not terminate this Agreement. Thus,
although Consultant shall no longer be required to provide Consulting Services
to the Company and the Company shall not be obligated to provide any further
stock or compensation to Consultant after termination of the Consulting Period,
the remaining obligations, such as those set forth in Section 6, 7, and 12 shall
remain in full force and effect.

knowledge that each Investor is relying thereon in entering into this
Agreement and purchasing the Note and Warrant from the Company, that the
following are true and correct:
2.1 ORGANIZATION, GOOD STANDING AND QUALIFICATION. The
Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite
corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and
as proposed to be conducted. The Company is duly qualified to transact
business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure so
to qualify would have a material adverse effect on the operation of its
business or properties.
2.2 AUTHORIZATION. All corporate action on the part of the
Company, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the
authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Notes, the
Warrants and the performance of all obligations of the Company thereunder has
been taken or will be taken prior to the Closing, and this Agreement, the
Notes and the Warrants constitute valid and legally binding obligations of
the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their
respective terms, except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting
enforcement of creditors' rights generally, (b) as limited by laws relating
to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other
equitable remedies and (c) to the extent the indemnification provisions, if

1968, as amended, and the rules thereunder, which filing shall be effected by
the Company within fifteen (15) days of the sale of the Notes and Warrants
pursuant to this Agreement.
3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE INVESTORS. Each Investor
hereby represents and warrants to and for the benefit of the Company, with
knowledge that the Company is relying thereon in entering into this Agreement
and issuing the Note and Warrant to such Investor, as follows:
3.1 PURCHASE ENTIRELY FOR OWN ACCOUNT. By each Investor's
execution of this Agreement, such Investor hereby confirms that the Note and
Warrant to be received by such Investor and the Preferred Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Note and exercise of the Warrant (collectively, the
"Securities") shall be acquired for investment for such Investor's own
account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or
distribution of any part thereof, and that such Investor has no present
intention of selling, granting any participation in,
-2-
or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, each
Investor further represents that such Investor does not have any contract,
undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or
grant participation to such person or to any third person, with respect to
any of the Securities. Each Investor represents that it has full power and
authority to enter into this Agreement.
3.2 INVESTMENT EXPERIENCE. Each Investor is an investor in
securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that it is
able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment and has
such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the
Securities.
3.3 ACCREDITED INVESTOR. Each Investor is an "accredited
investor" within the meaning of SEC Rule 501 of Regulation D, as now in
effect.
3.4 RESTRICTED SECURITIES. Each Investor understands that
the Securities it is and shall be purchasing are characterized as "restricted
securities" under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being
acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering
and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be
resold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Act"), only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, each
Investor represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated under the
Act, as now in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby
and by the Act.
3.5 LEGENDS. Each Investor understands that the
certificates evidencing the Securities may bear one or all of the following
legends:
(a) "The securities evidenced by this certificate
have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Act") or the securities laws of any state of the United States. The
securities evidenced by this certificate may not be offered, sold or
transferred for value directly or indirectly, in the absence of such
registration under the Act and qualification under applicable state laws, or
pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Act and qualification
under applicable state laws, the availability of which is to be established
to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company."
(b) Any legend required by the laws of any state.
4. RESTRICTIONS ON DISPOSITION. Without in any way limiting the
representations set forth in Section 3 above, each Investor further agrees
not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Securities unless
and until the transferee has agreed in writing for the benefit of the Company
to be bound by this Section 4 and such Investor receives the prior written
consent of the Company, and in addition thereto, one of the following
conditions is satisfied:
4.1 SECURITIES REGISTERED. There is then in effect a
registration statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and
such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement.
-3-
4.2 REGISTRATION NOT REQUIRED. Such Investor shall have
(i) notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished
the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the
proposed disposition, and (ii) if reasonably requested by the Company,
furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to
the Company, that such disposition will not require registration of such
securities under the Act. No opinion of counsel will be required for sales
made in accordance with Rule 144 under the Act, except in unusual
circumstances.
4.3 OTHER PERMITTED TRANSFERS. Notwithstanding the
provisions of Sections 4.1 and 4.2 above, no such registration statement or
opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a transfer by an Investor which is
a partnership to a partner of such partnership or a retired partner of such
partnership who retires after the date hereof, or to the estate of any such
partner or retired partner or the transfer by gift, will or intestate
succession of any partner to his spouse or to the siblings, lineal
descendants including adopted children or ancestors of such partner or his
spouse, if, prior to such transfer, the transferee agrees in writing to be
subject to the terms hereof to the same extent as if he were the original
Investor hereunder, or to an "affiliate" of an Investor as
4.4 that term is defined in Rule 405 promulgated by the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Act.
5. CALIFORNIA COMMISSIONER OF CORPORATIONS.
5.1 CORPORATE SECURITIES LAW. THE SALE OF THE SECURITIES
WHICH ARE THE SUBJECT OF THIS AGREEMENT HAS NOT BEEN QUALIFIED WITH THE
COMMISSIONER OF CORPORATIONS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND THE ISSUANCE OF

DIGIRAD CORPORATION
CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE
Digirad Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), for value
received, hereby promises to pay to _____________ ("Holder"), the principal
amount of __________ ($_______) (the "Issue Price"), from the date hereof until
paid or converted in accordance with the terms hereof.
1. CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE ("NOTE").
1.1 NOTE AND WARRANT PURCHASE AGREEMENT. This Note is one of a
series of Convertible Promissory Notes (collectively, the "Notes") issued by the
Company in connection with that certain Convertible Promissory Note and Warrant
Purchase Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the "Agreement") by and among
the Company, Holder and the holders of the other Notes, and is subject to, and
Holder and the Company shall be bound by, all the terms, conditions and
provisions of the Agreement.
2. CONVERSION.
2.1 CONVERSION. If the Company completes a subsequent equity
financing on or before June 30, 2001 in which the Company receives in cash
proceeds from the sale of shares of its capital stock an amount equal to or
greater than five million dollars ($5,000,000) (a "Qualified Equity Financing"),
the Issue Price of this Note (the "Conversion Amount") shall be converted into
that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of the equity security of the
Company sold in the Qualified Equity Financing (the "New Equity Shares") as is
equal to the
Conversion Amount divided by the per share purchase price of the New Equity
Shares (the "New Equity Per Share Price"), with any fraction of a share to be
rounded up to the next whole share of the New Equity Shares. The Holder shall
have no right to negotiate any of the terms or conditions upon which the New
Equity Shares will be issued, which negotiation shall be conducted solely
among the Company and the purchasers of the New Equity Shares.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following provision shall apply:
(a) If on or before June 30, 2001 (a) the
Company has not yet completed a Qualified Equity Financing, and (b) the Company
is acquired, whether by means of a merger, sale of all or substantially all of
the assets of the Company, sale of more than fifty percent (50%) of the
Company's outstanding securities or otherwise (an "Acquisition"), the Company
may elect to convert the Conversion Amount into that number of fully paid and
nonassessable shares of the Series E Preferred Stock of the Company as is equal
to the Conversion Amount divided by $3.036 per share (the "Acquisition Per Share
Price"), with any fraction of a share to be rounded up to the next whole share
of Series E Preferred Stock.
(b) If on July 1, 2001 (a) the Company has not
yet completed a Qualified Equity Financing or (b) completed an Acquisition, the
Conversion Amount shall be converted into that number of fully paid and
nonassessable shares of the Company's Series C Preferred Stock as is equal to
the Conversion Amount divided by $1.25 per share, with any fraction of a share
to be rounded up to the next whole share of Series C Preferred Stock.
2.2 CONVERSION PROCEDURE. Written notice of any applicable conversion
event heretofore described in Section 2.1 (each, a "Conversion Event") shall be
delivered to the Holder of this Note at least ten (10) days in advance of the
applicable Conversion Event (the "Conversion Date"), at the address last shown
on the records of the Company for the Holder or given by the Holder to the
Company for the purpose of notice (or, if no such address appears or is given,
at the place where the principal executive office or residence of the Holder is
located), notifying the Holder of the Conversion Event, including specifying (i)
the Conversion Amount (calculated as of the Conversion Date), (ii) the New
Equity Per Share Price, if applicable, (iii) a term sheet setting forth the
rights, preferences, privileges and terms and conditions of issuance and sale of
the New Equity Shares, if applicable, and (iv) the Conversion Date. The Note
shall automatically convert upon the Conversion Event without any further action
by the Holder hereof.
2.3 TERMINATION OF RIGHTS UPON CONVERSION. Conversion shall be
deemed effective upon the Conversion Event, and the Holder of this Note shall
have no further rights under this Note, whether or not this Note is surrendered.
2.4 DELIVERY OF STOCK CERTIFICATES. As promptly as practicable
after any Conversion Event, the Company at its expense will issue and deliver to
the Holder of this Note a certificate or certificates evidencing the number of
full shares of the Company's capital stock issuable to Holder upon any such
Conversion Event.

3. MISCELLANEOUS.
3.1 TRANSFER OF NOTE. This Note shall not be
transferable or assignable in any manner by the Holder without the express
written consent of the Company, and any such attempted disposition of this
Note or any portion hereof shall be of no force or effect unless such
disposition is in compliance with the Agreement.
3.2 TITLES AND SUBTITLES. The titles and subtitles
used in this Note are for convenience only and are not to be considered in
construing or interpreting this Note.
3.3 NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted under
this Note shall be given in writing and in accordance with Section 6.4 of the
Agreement (for purposes of which the term "Investor" shall mean the Holder
hereunder), except as otherwise expressly provided in this Note.
3.4 ATTORNEYS' FEES. If any action at law or in
equity is necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this Note, the
prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and
disbursements in addition to any other relief to which such party may be
entitled.
3.5 AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. Other than the right to
the payment of the Issue Price, which may only be amended or waived with the
written consent of the Holder, any other term of this Note may be amended and
the observance of any other term of this Note may be waived (either generally
or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), with
the written consent of the Company and the holders of at least fifty-one
percent (51%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding
and in accordance with the Agreement. Any amendment or waiver effected in
accordance with this Section 3.5 shall be binding upon the Holder of this
Note (and of any securities into which this Note is convertible), each future
holder of all such securities and the Company.
3.6 SEVERABILITY. If one or more provisions of this
Note are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall
be excluded from this Note and the balance of the Note shall be interpreted
as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance
with its terms.
3.7 GOVERNING LAW. This Note shall be governed by and
construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of
California, without giving effect to its conflicts of laws principles.
3.8 MARKET STAND-OFF AGREEMENT. The Holder and any
future transferee acknowledge and agree that, upon the conversion of this
Note, Holder or any future transferee shall be bound by the market standoff
provision, agreed to between the Company and the investors in the Qualified
Equity Financing. In the absence of such a market standoff provision the
Holder and any future transferee acknowledge and agree that upon conversion
of this Note, the following provisions shall apply to the rights of the
Holder and any future transferee as a holder of Common Stock: During the
period of duration specified by the Company and an underwriter of Common
Stock or other securities of the Company, following the effective date of a
registration statement of the Company filed under the Act, the Holder or any
future transferee will not, to the extent requested by the Company and such
underwriter, directly or indirectly sell,
3
offer to sell, contract to sell (including, without limitation, any short
sale), grant any option to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of
(other than to transferees or donees who agree to be similarly bound) any
securities of the Company held by it at any time during such period except
Common Stock included in such registration; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such
agreement shall not exceed one hundred eighty (180) days.
In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the
Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Preferred
Stock or Common Stock of the Holder or any future transferee (and the shares
or securities of every other person subject to the foregoing restriction)
until the end of such period.

together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company, of

3.1 RIGHT TO CONVERT. In addition to and without limiting
the rights of the Holder under the terms of this Warrant, the Holder shall
have the right to convert this Warrant (the "Conversion Right") into shares
of Preferred Stock as provided in this Section 3 at any time or from time to
time during the Exercise Period. Upon exercise of the Conversion Right with
respect to shares subject to the Warrant (the "Converted Warrant Shares"),
the Company shall deliver to the Holder (without payment by the Holder of any
exercise price or any cash or other consideration) that number of shares of
fully paid and nonassessable Preferred Stock computed using the following
formula:
X = Y (A - B)
--------------
A
Where X = the number of shares of Preferred Stock to be
delivered to the holder
Y = the number of Converted Warrant Shares
3
A = the fair market value of one share of the Company's
Preferred Stock on the Conversion Date (as defined
below)
B = the per share exercise price of the Warrant (as
adjusted to the Conversion Date)
No fractional shares shall be issuable upon exercise of the Conversion Right,
and if the number of shares to be issued determined in accordance with the
foregoing formula is other than a whole number, the Company shall pay to the
Holder an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of the resulting
fractional share on the Conversion Date (as defined below). Shares issued
pursuant to the Conversion Right shall be treated as if they were issued upon
the exercise of the Warrant.
3.2 METHOD OF EXERCISE. The Conversion Right may be exercised
by the Holder by the surrender of the Warrant at the principal office of the
Company together with a written statement specifying that the Holder thereby
intends to exercise the Conversion Right and indicating the total number of
shares under the Warrant that the Holder is exercising through the Conversion
Right. Such conversion shall be effective upon receipt by the Company of the
Warrant together with the aforesaid written statement, or on such later date as
is specified therein (the "Conversion Date"). Certificates for the shares
issuable upon exercise of the Conversion Right shall be delivered to the Holder
promptly following the Conversion Date.
3.3 DETERMINATION OF FAIR MARKET VALUE. For purposes of this
Section 3, fair market value of a share of Preferred Stock on the Conversion
Date shall mean the fair market value as determined by the Board of Directors of
the Company in good faith.
4. LIMIT ON RIGHTS OF THE HOLDER UPON EXERCISE. The Holder
acknowledges and agrees that upon the exercise of this Warrant in full or in
part, the following provisions shall apply to the rights of the Holder as a
holder of Preferred Stock:
4.1 MARKET STAND-OFF AGREEMENT. During the period of duration
specified by the Company and an underwriter of Common Stock or other securities
of the Company, following the effective date of a registration statement of the
Company filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act), the
Holder or any future transferee will not, to the extent requested by the Company
and such underwriter, directly or indirectly sell, offer to sell, contract to
sell (including, without limitation, any short sale), grant any option to
purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of (other than to transferees or
donees who agree to be similarly bound) any securities of the Company held by it
at any time during such period except Common Stock included in such
registration; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such agreement shall not exceed one
hundred eighty (180) days.
In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose
stop-transfer instructions with respect to the securities of the Holder or any
future transferee (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to
the foregoing restriction) until the end of such period.
5. ADJUSTMENTS TO CONVERSION PRICE. The number and kind of shares of
Preferred Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities which may be)
issuable upon the exercise of this
4
Warrant and the exercise price hereunder shall be subject to adjustment from
time to time upon the happening of certain events, as follows:
5.1 DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS, STOCK SPLITS OR COMBINATIONS.
If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the date hereof
make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of
Preferred Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable
in additional shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock (as the case may be),
then and in each such event the exercise price hereunder then in effect shall
be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such a record
date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date,
by multiplying the exercise price hereunder then in effect by a fraction: (a)
the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock
(assuming the conversion of all outstanding securities of the Company that
are convertible into Common Stock and the exercise of all options to purchase
Common Stock or securities that are convertible into Common Stock) issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the time of issuance or the close of
business on such record date; and (b) the denominator of which shall be the
total number of shares of Common Stock (assuming the conversion of all
outstanding securities of the Company that are convertible into Common Stock
and the exercise of all options to purchase Common Stock or securities that
are convertible into Common Stock) issued and outstanding immediately after
the time of issuance or the close of business on such record date. If the
Company shall at any time subdivide the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock
(or any securities into which such Preferred Stock is convertible), or if the
Company shall at any time combine the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock
(or any securities into which such Preferred Stock is convertible), then the
exercise price hereunder immediately shall be decreased proportionally (in
the case of a subdivision) or increased proportionally (in the case of a
combination). Any such adjustment shall become effective at the close of
business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.
5.2 RECLASSIFICATION OR REORGANIZATION. If the Preferred
Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities which may be) issuable upon
the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed into the same or different
number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by capital
reorganization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or
combination of shares or stock dividend provided for in Section 5.1 above, or
a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets provided for in
Section 5.3 below), then and in each such event the Holder shall be entitled
to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of
stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization,
reclassification or other change, to which a holder of the number of shares
of Preferred Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities which may be)
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant would have received if this
Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such reorganization,
reclassification or other change, all subject to further adjustment as
provided herein.
5.3 MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR SALE OF ASSETS. Subject to the
preamble, in the event of, at any time prior to the Expiration Date, an initial
public offering of securities of the Company registered under the Act, or the
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other
than a merger solely to effect a reincorporation of the Company into another
state), or the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the
properties and assets
5
of the Company in its entirety to any other person, the Company shall provide
to the Holder ten (10) days advance written notice of such public offering,
consolidation, merger or sale or other disposition of the Company's assets,
and this Warrant shall terminate unless exercised prior to the date such
public offering is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission or the occurrence of such consolidation, merger or sale or other
disposition of the Company's assets. If at any time or from time to time
there shall be a capital reorganization of the Preferred Stock (other than a
subdivision, combination, reclassification or exchange of shares provided for
elsewhere in this Section 5) of the Company, then as a part of such
reorganization, provision shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter
be entitled to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant, the number of
shares of stock or other securities or property of the Company, resulting
from such reorganization, to which a holder of the number of shares of
Preferred Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities which may be)
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant would have received if this
Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such reorganization.
5.4 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS AND RECORD DATES. The Company
shall promptly notify the Holder in writing of each adjustment or
readjustment of the exercise price hereunder and the number of shares of
Preferred Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities which may be)
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. Such notice shall state the
adjustment or readjustment and show in reasonable detail the facts on which
that adjustment or readjustment is based.
6. REPLACEMENT OF WARRANTS. On receipt by the Company of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or
mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or
destruction of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably
satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such
mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Company at its
expense will execute and deliver to the Holder, in lieu thereof, a new
Warrant of like tenor.
7. NO RIGHTS OR LIABILITY AS A STOCKHOLDER. This Warrant does not
entitle the Holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a
stockholder of the Company. No provisions hereof, in the absence of
affirmative action by the Holder to purchase Preferred Stock, and no
enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise
to any liability of the Holder as a stockholder of the Company.
8. MISCELLANEOUS.
8.1 TRANSFER OF WARRANT. This Warrant shall not be
transferable or assignable in any manner without the express written consent
of the Company, and any such attempted disposition of this Warrant or any
portion hereof shall be of no force or effect unless such disposition is in
compliance with the Agreement.
8.2 TITLES AND SUBTITLES. The titles and subtitles
used in this Warrant are for convenience only and are not to be considered in
construing or interpreting this Warrant.
8.3 NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted under this
Warrant shall be given in writing and in accordance with Section 6.4 of the
Purchase Agreement (for purposes of
6
which, the term "Investor" shall mean Holder hereunder), except as otherwise
expressly provided in this Warrant.
8.4 ATTORNEYS' FEES. If any action at law or in equity is
necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this Warrant, the prevailing
party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and
disbursements in addition to any other relief to which such party may be
entitled.
8.5 AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. Any term of this Warrant may be
amended and the observance of any term of this Warrant may be waived (either
generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or
prospectively), with the written consent of the Company and the holders of
Warrants representing together the right to purchase at least fifty-one
percent (51%) of all of the Preferred Stock of the Company subject to
purchase pursuant to all of the Warrants and in accordance with the Purchase
Agreement. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section
8.5 shall be binding upon the Holder of this Warrant (and of any securities
into which this Warrant is convertible), each future holder of all such
securities, and the Company.
8.6 SEVERABILITY. If one or more provisions of this Warrant
are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be
excluded from this Warrant and the balance of the Warrant shall be
interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in
accordance with its terms.
8.7 GOVERNING LAW. This Warrant shall be governed by
and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of
California, without giving effect to its conflicts of laws principles.

8.8 COUNTERPARTS. This Warrant may be executed in any number
of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

forth below, to purchase from the Company at any time (A) after the earlier to
occur of (i) the completion of a Qualified Equity Financing (as defined in the
Notes), (ii) ten (10) days prior to the completion of an Acquisition (as defined
in the Notes) or (iii) July 1, 2001, and (B) before the earlier to occur of (i)
5:00 PM Pacific time, on September 29, 2005 (the "Expiration Date"), (ii) the
initial underwritten public offering of the Company's Common Stock or (iii) the

number of shares and the exercise price of the Warrant to be determined as
follows:
(a) If the Company completes a Qualified Equity Financing or
Acquisition on or before January 1, 2001, then (i) the exercise price of the
Warrant will be the New Equity Per Share Price or Acquisition Per Share Price,
as the case may be, and (ii) this Warrant will be exercisable into that
aggregate number of New Equity Shares or Acquisition Shares, as the case may be,
equal to (A) ten percent (10%) of the Issue Price of the Note issued to the
Holder divided by (B) the New Equity Per Share Price or the Acquisition Per
Share Price, as the case may be.
(b) If the Company completes a Qualified Equity Financing or
Acquisition between January 2, 2001 and on or before February 1, 2001, then (i)
the exercise price of the Warrant will be the New Equity Per Share Price or
Acquisition Per Share Price, as the case may be, and (ii) this Warrant will be
exercisable into that aggregate number of New Equity Shares or Acquisition

of the Note issued to the Holder divided by (B) the New Equity Per Share Price
or the Acquisition Per Share Price, as the case may be.
1
(c) If the Company completes a Qualified Equity Financing or

increase in the amount of warrants to be issue to Holder, Holder is receiving
the maximum aggregate amount of warrants to which it is entitled. (For example,
if the Company completes a Qualified Equity Financing as of February 4, 2001,
Holder is entitled to a MAXIMUM aggregate of number of New Equity Shares equal
to thirty percent (30%) of the Issue Price of the Note issued to the Holder
divided by the Per Share Price.)

requires, have the following respective meanings:

succeed to or assume the obligations of the Company hereunder.
(b) The term "Preferred Stock" shall mean the Preferred Stock of the
Company, and any other securities or property of the Company or of any other

shall be entitled to receive on the exercise hereof, in lieu of or in addition
to Preferred Stock, or which at any time shall be issuable in exchange for or in
replacement of Preferred Stock.
(c) The term "Purchase Agreement" shall mean the Convertible Promissory
Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated as of the date hereof by and among the

1. INITIAL EXERCISE DATE; EXPIRATION. This Warrant may be
exercised at any time within the time periods described in the preamble and
Section 5.3 (the "Exercise Period").
2. EXERCISE OF WARRANT; PARTIAL EXERCISE. This Warrant may be
exercised in full by the Holder by surrender of this Warrant, together with
the Holder's duly executed form of subscription attached hereto as SCHEDULE
1, to the Company at its principal office, accompanied by payment, in cash or
by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company, of
the aggregate exercise price (as determined above) of the shares of Preferred
Stock to be purchased hereunder. The exercise of this Warrant pursuant to
this Section 2 shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the
close of business on the business day on which this Warrant is surrendered to
the Company as provided in this Section 2, and at such time the person in
whose name any certificate for shares of Preferred Stock shall be issuable
upon such exercise shall be deemed to be the record holder of such Preferred
Stock for all purposes. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this
Warrant, the Company at its expense will cause to be issued in the name of
and delivered to the Holder, or as the Holder may direct, a certificate or
certificates for the number of fully paid and nonassessable full shares of
Preferred Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled on such exercise,
together with cash, in lieu of any fraction of a share, equal to such
fraction of the current market value of one full share of Preferred Stock as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, and, if applicable, a new
warrant evidencing the balance of the shares remaining subject to the Warrant.
3. NET ISSUANCE.
3.1 RIGHT TO CONVERT. In addition to and without limiting the
rights of the Holder under the terms of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the
right to convert this Warrant (the "Conversion Right") into shares of Preferred
Stock as provided in this Section 3 at any time or from time to time during the
Exercise Period. Upon exercise of the Conversion Right with respect to shares
subject to the Warrant (the "Converted Warrant Shares"), the Company shall
deliver to the Holder (without payment by the Holder of any exercise price or
any cash or other consideration) that number of shares of fully paid and
nonassessable Preferred Stock computed using the following formula:
X = Y (A - B)
-------------
A
Where X = the number of shares of Preferred Stock to be
delivered to the holder
Y = the number of Converted Warrant Shares
A = the fair market value of one share of the Company's
Preferred Stock on the Conversion Date (as defined below)
B = the per share exercise price of the Warrant (as
adjusted to the Conversion Date)
No fractional shares shall be issuable upon exercise of the Conversion Right,
and if the number of shares to be issued determined in accordance with the
foregoing formula is other than a whole number, the Company shall pay to the
Holder an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of
3
the resulting fractional share on the Conversion Date (as defined below).
Shares issued pursuant to the Conversion Right shall be treated as if they
were issued upon the exercise of the Warrant.
3.2 METHOD OF EXERCISE. The Conversion Right may be exercised
by the Holder by the surrender of the Warrant at the principal office of the
Company together with a written statement specifying that the Holder thereby
intends to exercise the Conversion Right and indicating the total number of
shares under the Warrant that the Holder is exercising through the Conversion
Right. Such conversion shall be effective upon receipt by the Company of the
Warrant together with the aforesaid written statement, or on such later date as
is specified therein (the "Conversion Date"). Certificates for the shares
issuable upon exercise of the Conversion Right shall be delivered to the Holder
promptly following the Conversion Date.
3.3 DETERMINATION OF FAIR MARKET VALUE. For purposes of this
Section 3, fair market value of a share of Preferred Stock on the Conversion
Date shall mean the fair market value as determined by the Board of Directors of
the Company in good faith.
4. LIMIT ON RIGHTS OF THE HOLDER UPON EXERCISE. The Holder
acknowledges and agrees that upon the exercise of this Warrant in full or in
part, the following provisions shall apply to the rights of the Holder as a
holder of Preferred Stock:
4.1 MARKET STAND-OFF AGREEMENT. During the period of duration
specified by the Company and an underwriter of Common Stock or other securities
of the Company, following the effective date of a registration statement of the
Company filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act), the
Holder or any future transferee will not, to the extent requested by the Company
and such underwriter, directly or indirectly sell, offer to sell, contract to
sell (including, without limitation, any short sale), grant any option to
purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of (other than to transferees or
donees who agree to be similarly bound) any securities of the Company held by it
at any time during such period except Common Stock included in such
registration; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such agreement shall not exceed one
hundred eighty (180) days.
In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose
stop-transfer instructions with respect to the securities of the Holder or any
future transferee (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to
the foregoing restriction) until the end of such period.
5. ADJUSTMENTS TO CONVERSION PRICE. The number and kind of
shares of Preferred Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities which
may be) issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the exercise price
hereunder shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening
of certain events, as follows:
5.1 DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS, STOCK SPLITS OR COMBINATIONS. If
the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the date hereof make or
issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Preferred Stock
entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional
shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock (as the case may be), then and in each
such event the exercise price hereunder then in effect shall be decreased as of
the time of such issuance or, in the event such a record date shall have been
fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the
exercise price hereunder then in effect
4
by a fraction: (a) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares
of Common Stock (assuming the conversion of all outstanding securities of the
Company that are convertible into Common Stock and the exercise of all
options to purchase Common Stock or securities that are convertible into
Common Stock) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of
issuance or the close of business on such record date; and (b) the
denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock
(assuming the conversion of all outstanding securities of the Company that
are convertible into Common Stock and the exercise of all options to purchase
Common Stock or securities that are convertible into Common Stock) issued and
outstanding immediately after the time of issuance or the close of business
on such record date. If the Company shall at any time subdivide the
outstanding shares of Preferred Stock (or any securities into which such
Preferred Stock is convertible), or if the Company shall at any time combine
the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock (or any securities into which such
Preferred Stock is convertible), then the exercise price hereunder
immediately shall be decreased proportionally (in the case of a subdivision)
or increased proportionally (in the case of a combination). Any such
adjustment shall become effective at the close of business on the date the
subdivision or combination becomes effective.
5.2 RECLASSIFICATION OR REORGANIZATION. If the Preferred Stock
(or any shares of stock or other securities which may be) issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant shall be changed into the same or different number of
shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization,
reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares
or stock dividend provided for in Section 5.1 above, or a reorganization,
merger, consolidation or sale of assets provided for in Section 5.3 below), then
and in each such event the Holder shall be entitled to receive upon the exercise
of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and
property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification or other change,
to which a holder of the number of shares of Preferred Stock (or any shares of
stock or other securities which may be) issuable upon the exercise of this
Warrant would have received if this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior
to such reorganization, reclassification or other change, all subject to further
adjustment as provided herein.
5.3 MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR SALE OF ASSETS. Subject to the
preamble, in the event of, at any time prior to the Expiration Date, an initial
public offering of securities of the Company registered under the Act, or the
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other
than a merger solely to effect a reincorporation of the Company into another
state), or the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the
properties and assets of the Company in its entirety to any other person, the
Company shall provide to the Holder ten (10) days advance written notice of such
public offering, consolidation, merger or sale or other disposition of the
Company's assets, and this Warrant shall terminate unless exercised prior to the
date such public offering is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission or the occurrence of such consolidation, merger or sale or other
disposition of the Company's assets. If at any time or from time to time there
shall be a capital reorganization of the Preferred Stock (other than a
subdivision, combination, reclassification or exchange of shares provided for
elsewhere in this Section 5) of the Company, then as a part of such
reorganization, provision shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be
entitled to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of
stock or other securities or property of the Company, resulting from such
reorganization, to which a holder of the number of shares of Preferred Stock (or
any
5
shares of stock or other securities which may be) issuable upon the exercise
of this Warrant would have received if this Warrant had been exercised
immediately prior to such reorganization.
5.4 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS AND RECORD DATES. The Company shall
promptly notify the Holder in writing of each adjustment or readjustment of the
exercise price hereunder and the number of shares of Preferred Stock (or any
shares of stock or other securities which may be) issuable upon the exercise of
this Warrant. Such notice shall state the adjustment or readjustment and show in
reasonable detail the facts on which that adjustment or readjustment is based.
6. REPLACEMENT OF WARRANTS. On receipt by the Company of
evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss,
theft or destruction of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement
reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of
any such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the
Company at its expense will execute and deliver to the Holder, in lieu
thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
7. NO RIGHTS OR LIABILITY AS A STOCKHOLDER. This Warrant does
not entitle the Holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a
stockholder of the Company. No provisions hereof, in the absence of
affirmative action by the Holder to purchase Preferred Stock, and no
enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise
to any liability of the Holder as a stockholder of the Company.
8. MISCELLANEOUS.
8.1 TRANSFER OF WARRANT. This Warrant shall not be
transferable or assignable in any manner without the express written consent of
the Company, and any such attempted disposition of this Warrant or any portion
hereof shall be of no force or effect unless such disposition is in compliance
with the Agreement.
8.2 TITLES AND SUBTITLES. The titles and subtitles used
in this Warrant are for convenience only and are not to be considered in
construing or interpreting this Warrant.
8.3 NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted under this
Warrant shall be given in writing and in accordance with Section 6.4 of the
Purchase Agreement (for purposes of which, the term "Investor" shall mean Holder
hereunder), except as otherwise expressly provided in this Warrant.
8.4 ATTORNEYS' FEES. If any action at law or in equity is
necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this Warrant, the prevailing
party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and disbursements
in addition to any other relief to which such party may be entitled.
8.5 AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. Any term of this Warrant may be
amended and the observance of any term of this Warrant may be waived (either
generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or
prospectively), with the written consent of the Company and the holders of
Warrants representing together the right to purchase at least fifty-one percent
6
(51%) of all of the Preferred Stock of the Company subject to purchase pursuant
to all of the Warrants and in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. Any
amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 8.5 shall be
binding upon the Holder of this Warrant (and of any securities into which this
Warrant is convertible), each future holder of all such securities, and the
Company.
8.6 SEVERABILITY. If one or more provisions of this Warrant
are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be
excluded from this Warrant and the balance of the Warrant shall be interpreted
as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance
with its terms.
8.7 GOVERNING LAW. This Warrant shall be governed by
and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of
California, without giving effect to its conflicts of laws principles.

Void after ______________
Digirad Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY"), hereby
certifies that, for value received _____________ (including any successors and
assigns, the "HOLDER"), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to
purchase from the Company at any time, subject to Section 2.3 herein, before
5:00 PM Pacific time on ________________ (the "EXPIRATION DATE") up to
_____________ (_________) fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock of
the Company, subject to adjustment as provided herein (the "WARRANT SHARES").
The purchase price per share of such Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant
shall be $________ (the "PURCHASE PRICE"), subject to adjustment as provided
herein.
1. INITIAL EXERCISE DATE; EXPIRATION. Subject to Section 2.3
herein, this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder at any time or from time
to time before 5:00 PM, Pacific time, on ______________ (the "EXERCISE
PERIOD") for that number of Warrant Shares set forth in Section 2.2 below.
2. EXERCISE OF WARRANT; NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES; TERMINATION.
2.1 EXERCISE OF WARRANT; PARTIAL EXERCISE. This Warrant
may be exercised in full or in part by the Holder by surrender of this
Warrant, together with the form of subscription attached hereto as Schedule
1, duly executed by the Holder, to the Company at its principal office,
accompanied by payment, in cash or by certified or official bank check
payable to the order of the Company, of the Purchase Price of the shares of
Common Stock to be purchased hereunder in an amount equal to such Purchase
Price. For any partial exercise hereof, the Holder shall designate in a
subscription in the form of Schedule 1 attached hereto delivered to the
Company the number of shares of Common Stock that it wishes to purchase. On
any such partial exercise, the Company at its expense shall forthwith issue
and deliver to the Holder a new warrant of like tenor, in the name of the
Holder, which shall be exercisable for such number of shares of Common Stock
represented by this Warrant which have not been purchased upon such
exercise.
2.2 NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. Subject to adjustment as
hereinafter provided, as of the Date of Issuance, the rights represented by
this Warrant are immediately exercisable for __________ shares of Common
Stock of the Company.
2.3 TERMINATION OF THE WARRANT UPON A CORPORATE
TRANSACTION. Immediately following a Corporate Transaction (as hereinafter
defined), this Warrant shall terminate and cease to be outstanding, provided
that written notice has been given to the Holder at least 20 days prior to
the occurrence of the Corporate Transaction. For the purposes of this
Warrant, "Corporate Transaction" shall mean: (i) a merger or consolidation in
which securities possessing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total
combined voting power of the Company's outstanding securities are transferred
to a person or persons different from the persons holding those securities
immediately prior to such transaction; or (ii) the sale, transfer or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets in complete
liquidation or dissolution of the Company.
3. NET ISSUANCE.
3.1 RIGHT TO CONVERT. The Holder shall have the right to
convert this Warrant or any portion thereof (the "CONVERSION RIGHT") into
shares of Common Stock as provided in this Section 3 at any time or from time
to time during the Exercise Period. Upon exercise of the Conversion Right
with respect to a particular number of shares subject to the Warrant (the
"CONVERTED WARRANT SHARES"), the Company shall deliver to the Holder (without
payment by the Holder of any exercise price or any cash or other
consideration) that number of shares of fully paid and nonassessable shares
of Common Stock computed using the following formula:
X = Y (A - B)
----------
A
Where X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered
to the Holder
Y = the number of Converted Warrant Shares
A = the fair market value of one share of the Company's
Common Stock on the Conversion Date (as defined
below)
B = the Purchase Price (as adjusted through the
Conversion Date)
The Conversion Right may only be exercised with respect to a whole number of
shares subject to the Warrant. No fractional shares shall be issuable upon
exercise of the Conversion Right, and if the number of shares to be issued
determined in accordance with the foregoing formula is other than a whole
number, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to the fair
market value of the resulting fractional share on the Conversion Date (as
defined below). Shares issued pursuant to the Conversion Right shall be treated
as if they were issued upon the exercise of the Warrant.
2
3.2 METHOD OF EXERCISE. The Conversion Right may be
exercised by the Holder by the surrender of the Warrant at the principal
office of the Company together with a written statement specifying that the
Holder thereby intends to exercise the Conversion Right and indicating the
total number of shares under the Warrant that the Holder is exercising
through the Conversion Right. Such conversion shall be effective upon receipt
by the Company of the Warrant together with the aforesaid written statement,
or on such later date as is specified therein (the "CONVERSION DATE").
Certificates for the shares issuable upon exercise of the Conversion Right
and, if applicable, a new warrant evidencing the balance of the shares
remaining subject to the Warrant, shall be issued as of the Conversion Date
and shall be delivered to the Holder promptly following the Conversion Date.
3.3 DETERMINATION OF FAIR MARKET VALUE. For purposes of
this Section 3, fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the
Conversion Date shall mean:
(1) If traded on a stock exchange, the fair
market value of the Common Stock shall be deemed to be the average of the
closing selling prices of the Common Stock on the stock exchange determined by
the Board to be the primary market for the Common Stock over the ten (10)
trading day period (or such shorter period immediately following the closing of
an initial public offering) ending on the date prior to the Conversion Date, as
such prices are officially quoted in the composite tape of transactions on such
exchange;
(2) If traded over-the-counter, the fair market
value of the Common Stock shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid
prices (or, if such information is available, the closing selling prices) of the
Common Stock over the ten (10) trading day period (or such shorter period
immediately following the closing of an initial public offering) ending on the
date prior to the Conversion Date, as such prices are reported by the National
Association of Securities Dealers through its NASDAQ system or any successor
system; and
(3) If there is no public market for the Common
Stock, then the fair market value shall be determined in good faith by the Board
of Directors of the Company.
4. WHEN EXERCISE EFFECTIVE. The exercise of this Warrant shall
be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on
the business day on which this Warrant is surrendered to the Company as
provided in Section 2.1, and at such time the person in whose name any
certificate for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon such exercise,
as provided in Section 5, shall be deemed to be the record holder of such
Common Stock for all purposes.
5. DELIVERY ON EXERCISE. As soon as practicable after the
exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, the Company at its expense
(including the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be
issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder, or as the Holder may
direct, a certificate or certificates for the number of fully paid and
nonassessable full shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be
entitled on such exercise, together with cash, in lieu of any fraction of a
share, equal to such fraction of the current market value of one full share
of Common Stock as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.
3
6. ADJUSTMENTS. The number and kind of shares of Common Stock
(or any shares of stock or other securities which may be) issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant and the Purchase Price shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events, as follows:
6.1 DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS, STOCK SPLITS OR
COMBINATIONS. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the
date hereof (a) make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of
holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution
payable in additional shares of common or preferred stock (as the case may
be), (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger
number of shares of Common Stock or (c) combine its outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then and in
each such event the Purchase Price then in effect and the number of shares
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be appropriately adjusted.
6.2 RECLASSIFICATION OR REORGANIZATION. If the Common
Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities which may be) issuable upon
the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed into the same or different
number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by capital
reorganization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or
combination of shares or stock dividend provided for in Section 6.1 above, or
pursuant to a Corporate Transaction), then and in each such event the Holder
shall be entitled to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant the kind and
amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon
such reorganization, reclassification or other change, to which a holder of
the number of shares of Common Stock (or any shares of stock or other
securities which may be) issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant would
have received if this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such
reorganization, reclassification or other change, all subject to further
adjustment as provided herein.
6.3 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS AND RECORD DATES. The Company
shall promptly notify the Holder in writing of each adjustment or
readjustment of the Purchase Price and the number of shares of Common Stock
(or any shares of stock or other securities which may be) issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant. Such notice shall state the adjustment or
readjustment and show in reasonable detail the facts on which that adjustment
or readjustment is based. In the event of any taking by the Company of a
record of the holders of Common Stock for the purpose of determining the
holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or other
distribution, the Company shall notify Holder in writing of such record date
at least twenty (20) days prior to the date specified therein.
6.4 WHEN ADJUSTMENTS TO BE MADE. No adjustment in the
Purchase Price shall be required by this Section 6 if such adjustment either
by itself or with other adjustments not previously made would require an
increase or decrease of less than 1% in such price. Any adjustment
representing a change of less than such minimum amount which is postponed
shall be carried forward and made as soon as such adjustment, together with
other adjustments required by this Section 6 and not previously made, would
result in a minimum adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any adjustment
carried forward shall be made no later than ten business days prior to the
Expiration Date. All calculations under this Section 6.4 shall be made to the
nearest cent. For the purpose of any adjustment, any specified event shall be
deemed to have occurred at the close of business on the date of its
occurrence.
4
6.5 CERTAIN OTHER EVENTS. If any change in the outstanding
Common Stock of the Company or any other event occurs as to which the other
provisions of this Section 6 are not strictly applicable or if strictly
applicable would not fairly protect the purchase rights of the Holder of the
Warrant in accordance with such provisions, then the Board of Directors of
the Company shall make an adjustment in the number and class of shares
available under the Warrant, the Purchase Price or the application of such
provisions, so as to protect such purchase rights as aforesaid. The
adjustment shall be such as will give the Holder of the Warrant upon exercise
for the same aggregate Purchase Price the total number, class and kind of
shares as the Holder would have owned had the Warrant been exercised prior to
the event and had the Holder continued to hold such shares until after the
event requiring adjustment.
7. REPLACEMENT OF WARRANTS. On receipt by the Company of
evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss,
theft or destruction of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement
reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of
any such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the
Company at its expense will execute and deliver to the Holder, in lieu
thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
8. NO RIGHTS OR LIABILITY AS A STOCKHOLDER. This Warrant does
not entitle the Holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a
stockholder of the Company. No provisions hereof, in the absence of
affirmative action by the Holder to purchase Common Stock, and no enumeration
herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any
liability of the Holder as a shareholder of the Company.
9. REPRESENTATIONS OF HOLDER.
The Holder hereby represents, covenants and acknowledges to the Company
that:
(1) this Warrant and the Warrant Shares are
"restricted securities" as such term is used in the rules and regulations under
the Act and that such securities have not been and will not be registered under
the Act or any state securities law, and that such securities must be held

(2) the Holder has read, and fully understands,
the terms of this Warrant set forth on its face and the attachments hereto,

distribution of this Warrant or the Warrant Shares and it has no intention of
selling such securities in a public distribution in violation of the federal
securities laws or any applicable state securities laws;

5
requested from the Company and considers necessary or appropriate for

any similar authority necessary for the conduct of its business as now being

business, properties, prospects, or financial condition of the Company and can

delivery, and performance by the Company of this Agreement and any Transaction
Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and

constitute, with or without the passage of time or the giving of notice, either
a default under any such provision or an event that results in the creation of
any lien, charge, or encumbrance upon any assets of the Company (except as
contemplated in this Agreement and any Transaction Agreement) or the suspension,
revocation, impairment, forfeiture, or nonrenewal of any permit, license,

prospects, or financial condition of the Company, or in any change in the
current equity ownership of the Company. The foregoing includes, without
limitation, any action, suit, proceeding, or investigation pending or currently
threatened involving the prior employment of any of the Company's employees,
their use in connection with the Company's business of any information or
techniques allegedly proprietary to any of their former employers, their
obligations under any agreements with prior employers, or negotiations by the
Company with potential backers of, or investors in, the Company or its proposed
business. The Company is not a party to, or to the best of its knowledge, named

(v) for minor defects in title, none of which, individually or in the aggregate,
materially interferes with the use of such property, the Company owns its
property and assets free and clear of all mortgages, liens, claims, and
encumbrances. With respect to the property and assets it leases, the Company is

employee's best efforts to promote the interests of the Company or that would
conflict with the Company's business as proposed to be conducted. Neither the
execution nor delivery of this Agreement, nor the carrying on of the Company's
business by the employees of the Company, nor the conduct of the Company's
business as proposed, will, to the Company's knowledge, conflict with or result
in a breach of the terms, conditions, or provisions of, or constitute a default
under, any contract, covenant, or instrument under which any of such employees
is now obligated. The Company does not believe it is or will be necessary to use

3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE INVESTORS.
Each Investor hereby represents warrants, covenants and agrees that:
3.1 AUTHORIZATION. Such Investor has full power and authority to enter
into this Agreement and that this Agreement constitutes a valid and legally
binding obligation of such Investor.
3.2 PURCHASE ENTIRELY FOR OWN ACCOUNT. This Agreement is made with each
Investor in reliance upon such Investor's representation to the Company, which
by such Investor's execution of this Agreement such Investor hereby confirms,
that the Series E Preferred Stock or the Common Stock issuable upon conversion
thereof (collectively, the "Securities") will be acquired for investment for
such Investor's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to
the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that such Investor has no
present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise
distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, each Investor further
represents that such Investor does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement
or arrangement with any person to sell, distribute or grant participation to
such person, or to any third person, with respect to any of the Securities.
3.3 RELIANCE UPON INVESTORS' REPRESENTATIONS. Each Investor understands
that the issuance of the Securities may not be registered under the Securities
Act on the ground that the sale provided for in this Agreement and the issuance
of the Securities hereunder is exempt from registration under the Securities Act
pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof and that the Company's reliance on such
exemption is predicated on the Investors' representations set forth herein. Each
Investor realizes that the basis for the exemption may not be present if,
notwithstanding such representations, the Investor has in mind merely acquiring
the Securities for a fixed or
-10-
determinable period in the future, or for a market rise, or for sale if the
market does not rise. No Investor has any such intention.
3.4 RECEIPT OF INFORMATION. Each Investor believes such Investor has
received all the information such Investor considers necessary for deciding
whether to purchase the Series E Preferred Stock to be issued to it. Each
Investor further represents that such Investor has had an opportunity to ask
questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and
conditions of the offering of the Series E Preferred Stock, and the business,
properties, prospects, and financial condition of the Company and to obtain
additional information (to the extent the Company possessed such information or
could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense) necessary to verify the
accuracy of any information furnished to such Investor or to which such Investor
had access. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the representations
and warranties of the Company in Section 2 of this Agreement or the right of the
Investors to rely thereon.
3.5 INVESTMENT EXPERIENCE. Each Investor represents that such Investor
is experienced in evaluating and investing in securities of companies in the
development state and acknowledges that such Investor is able to fend for
himself, herself or itself, can bear the economic risk of such Investor's
investment, and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business
matters that such Investor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the
investment in the Series E Preferred Stock. If other than an individual,
Investor also represents such Investor has not been organized for the purpose of
acquiring the Series E Preferred Stock, or if such Investor has been organized
for the purpose of acquiring the Series E Preferred Stock that all investors in
such fund are accredited.
3.6 ACCREDITED INVESTOR. Except as otherwise disclosed to the Company
in writing, Investor either is (a) an accredited investor as defined in Rule
501(a) of Regulation D of the SEC under the Securities Act, or (b) neither (x) a
national or resident of the United States, its territories, possessions or any
area subject to its jurisdiction, nor (y) a corporation, partnership, trust or
other entity created or organized in the United States, its territories,
possessions or any area subject to its jurisdiction, nor (z) a corporation,
partnership, trust or other entity, any of the equity owners of which is
described in clause (x) or (y) above and agrees not to sell, hypothecate, pledge
or otherwise dispose of any interest in the Securities in the United States, its
territories, possessions or any area subject to its jurisdiction, or to any
person who is a national thereof or resident therein (including any estate of
such person), or any corporation, partnership or other entity created or
organized therein, unless such securities have been either registered under the
Securities Act, or are exempt from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act, in the opinion of the Company's counsel, and Investor has
complied with any restrictions on transfer contained in this Agreement.
3.7 RESTRICTED SECURITIES. Each Investor understands that the Series E
Preferred Stock (and any Common Stock issued on conversion thereof) may not be
sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of without registration under the
Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and that in the absence of an
effective registration statement covering the Preferred Stock or Common Stock
issued on conversion thereof or an available exemption from registration under
the Securities Act, the Series E
-11-
Preferred Stock (and any Common Stock issued on conversion thereof) must be
held indefinitely. In particular, each Investor is aware that the Series E
Preferred Stock (and any Common Stock issued on conversion thereof) may not
be sold pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act unless all
of the conditions of that Rule are met. Among the conditions for use of Rule
144 may be the availability of current information to the public about the
Company. Such information is not now available, and the Company has no
present plans to make such information available.
3.8 CONFIDENTIALITY. Each Investor hereby represents, warrants and
covenants that it shall maintain in confidence, and shall not use or disclose
without the prior written consent of the Company, any information identified as
confidential that is furnished to it by the Company in connection with this
Agreement, including (without limitation) all financial statements, budget and
other information delivered or provided to such Investor. This obligation of
confidentiality shall not apply, however, to any information (i) in the public
domain through no unauthorized act or failure to act by Investor, (ii) lawfully
disclosed to Investor by a third party who possessed such information without
any obligation of confidentiality, (iii) known previously by Investor or
lawfully developed by Investor independent of any disclosure by the Company or
(iv) required to be disclosed by law. Investor further covenants that Investor
shall return to the Company all tangible materials containing such information
upon request by the Company.
3.9 FURTHER LIMITATIONS ON DISPOSITION. Without in any way limiting the
representations set forth above, each Investor further agrees not to make any
disposition of all or any portion of the Preferred Stock or Common Stock issued
on conversion thereof without the consent of the Company, unless and until the
transferee has agreed in writing for the benefit of the Company to be bound by
this Section 3 and Section 7, provided and to the extent that such sections are
applicable, and:
(a) There is then in effect a Registration Statement under the
Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made
in accordance with such Registration Statement; or
(b) The Investor shall have notified the Company of the
proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed
statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition and, if
reasonably requested by the Company, the Investor shall have furnished the
Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that
such disposition will not require registration of such shares under the
Securities Act. It is agreed that the Company will not require opinions of
counsel for transactions made pursuant to Rule 144, as currently in existence,
except in unusual circumstances.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a) and (b)
above, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel or consent of the
Company shall be necessary for a transfer by an Investor to an affiliated entity
which controls, is controlled by, or under common control with, the Investor,
provided that the transferee agrees in writing for the benefit of the Company to
be bound by this Section 3 and Section 7.
3.10 MARKET STAND-OFF AGREEMENT. Each Investor hereby agrees that it
shall not, to the extent requested by the Company and an underwriter of Common
Stock (or other securities) of the Company, sell or otherwise transfer or
dispose (other than to those donees who agree to be similarly bound) of any
Preferred Stock or Common Stock issued on conversion thereof during a
-12-
reasonable and customary period of time, as agreed to by the Company and the
underwriters, not to exceed 180 days, following the effective date of a
registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act;
provided, however, that:
(a) such agreement shall be applicable only to the first such
registration statement of the Company which covers shares (or securities) to be
sold on its behalf to the public in an underwritten offering; and
(b) all officers and directors of the Company, all holders of
at least one percent (1%) of the issued and outstanding securities of the
Company and all other persons with registration rights (whether or not pursuant
to this Agreement) enter into similar agreements.
In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may impose
stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Preferred Stock or Common Stock
issued on conversion thereof of each Investor (and the shares or securities of
every other person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end of such
reasonable and customary period.

granted to and imposed upon any wholly unissued series of the Preferred
Stock. The Board of Directors (within the limits and restrictions of any
resolution adopted by it, originally fixing the number of shares of any

2. DIVIDEND PROVISIONS.
The holders of shares of Preferred Stock shall be
entitled to receive non-cumulative dividends, out of any assets legally
available therefor, prior and in preference to any declaration or payment of any
dividend (payable other than in Common Stock of this Corporation) on the Common
Stock or any other junior equity security of this Corporation, at the rate of
$.10 per share of Series A Preferred Stock, $.11 per share of Series B Preferred
Stock, $.125 per share of Series C Preferred Stock, $.23073 per share of Series
D Preferred Stock and $.3036 per share of Series E Preferred Stock per annum
plus an amount equal to that paid on outstanding shares of Common Stock of this
Corporation, whenever funds are legally available therefor, payable quarterly
when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors and shall be non-cumulative.
Dividends, if declared, must be declared and paid with respect to all series of
2
Preferred Stock contemporaneously, and if less than full dividends are declared,
the same percentage of the dividend rate will be payable to each series of
Preferred Stock.
3. LIQUIDATION PREFERENCE.
(a) In the event of any liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of this Corporation, either voluntary or involuntary,
the holders of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in
preference to any distribution of any of the assets of this Corporation to the
holders of Common Stock or any other junior equity security by reason of their
ownership thereof an amount for each share of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock, respectively, held by such holder equal to the sum of (i) $1.00
for each such outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock (the "Original
Series A Issue Price"), (ii) $1.10 for each such outstanding share of Series B
Preferred Stock (the "Original Series B Issue Price"), (iii) $1.25 for each such
outstanding share of Series C Preferred Stock (the "Original Series C Issue
Price"), (iv) $2.3073 for each outstanding share of Series D Preferred Stock
(the "Original Series D Issue Price"), (v) $3.036 for each outstanding share of
Series E Preferred Stock (the "Original Series E Issue Price") and (vi) in each
case, an amount equal to all declared but unpaid dividends on each such share.
If upon the occurrence of such an event the assets and funds thus distributed
among the holders of the Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit the
payment to such holders of the full aforesaid preferential amounts, then the
entire assets and funds of this Corporation legally available for distribution
shall be distributed, ratably among the holders of the Preferred Stock in
proportion to the product of the liquidation preference of each such share and
the number of such shares owned by each such holder.
(b) Upon the completion of the distribution
required by subsection 3(a) above, if assets remain in the Corporation, the
holders of the Common Stock shall receive an amount equal to $.21 per share
(adjusted to reflect any subsequent stock splits, stock dividends, or other
recapitalizations) for each share of Common Stock held by them. If, upon the
occurrence of such event, the assets and funds thus distributed among the
holders of the Common Stock shall be insufficient to permit payment to such
holders of the full aforesaid preferential amounts, then the entire assets and
funds of this Corporation legally available for distribution (after giving
effect to the distribution referred to in Section 3(a) hereof) shall be
distributed ratably among the holders of the Common Stock in proportion to the
amount of such stock owned by each such holder.
(c) After the distributions described in
subsections 3(a) and (b) have been paid, the remaining assets of this
Corporation available for distribution to stockholders shall be distributed
among the holders of Preferred Stock and Common Stock pro rata based on the
number of shares of Common Stock held by each (assuming conversion of all such
Preferred Stock).
4. REDEMPTION.
(a) The outstanding Preferred Stock shall be
redeemable as provided in this Section 4. The Series A Redemption Price shall be
the total amount equal to $1.00 per share of Series A Preferred Stock to be
redeemed together with any declared but unpaid
3
dividends on such shares to the Redemption Date (as such term is hereinafter
defined). The Series B Redemption Price shall be the total amount equal to
$1.10 per share of Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed together with any
declared but unpaid dividends on such shares to the Redemption Date. The
Series C Redemption Price shall be the total amount equal to $1.25 per share
of Series C Preferred Stock to be redeemed together with any declared but
unpaid dividends on such shares to the Redemption Date. The Series D
Redemption Price shall be the total amount equal to $2.3073 per share of
Series D Preferred Stock to be redeemed together with any declared but unpaid
dividends on such shares to the Redemption Date. The Series E Redemption
Price shall be the total amount equal to $3.036 per share of Series E
Preferred Stock to be redeemed together with any declared but unpaid
dividends on such shares to the Redemption Date.
(b) On or at any time after July 31, 2004,
upon the receipt by this Corporation from the holders of at least 66-2/3% of the
then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock,
voting as a single class, of a written request for redemption hereunder of their
respective shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series
C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock (the
"Redemption Request"), this Corporation shall, from any source of funds legally
available therefor, redeem all of the shares of Preferred Stock by paying in
cash therefor a sum equal to the Series A Redemption Price, the Series B
Redemption Price, the Series C Redemption Price, the Series D Redemption Price
and the Series E Redemption Price, respectively.
(c) (i) At least 15, but no more than 30,
days prior to the date fixed for any redemption of the Preferred Stock (the
"Redemption Date"), which Redemption Date shall be no later than 45 days
following the Corporation's receipt of the Redemption Request, written notice
shall be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each holder of record (at
the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which
notice is given) of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred
Stock to be redeemed at the address last shown on the records of this
Corporation for such holder or given by the holder to this Corporation for
the purpose of notice or if no such address appears or is given, at the place
where the principal executive office of this Corporation is located,
notifying such holder of the redemption to be effected, specifying the number
of shares to be redeemed from such holder, the Redemption Date, the Series A
Redemption Price, the Series B Redemption Price, the Series C Redemption
Price, the Series D Redemption Price or the Series E Redemption Price as the
case may be, the place at which payment may be obtained and the date on which
such holder's Conversion Rights (as hereinafter defined) as to such shares,
terminating and calling upon such holder to surrender to this Corporation, in
the manner and at the place designated, such holder's certificate or
certificates representing the shares to be redeemed (the "Redemption
Notice"). Except as provided in subsection 4(c)(iii), on or after the
Redemption Date, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock to be redeemed shall surrender to this Corporation the
certificate or certificates representing such shares, in the manner and at
the place designated in the Redemption Notice, and thereupon the Series A
Redemption Price, Series B Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, the
Series D Redemption Price or the Series E Redemption Price, as the case may
be, of such shares shall be payable, to the order of the person whose name
appears on such certificate
4
or certificates as the owner thereof and each surrendered certificate shall
be canceled. In the event less than all the shares represented by any such
certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued representing the
unredeemed shares.
(ii) If the funds of the Corporation
legally available for redemption of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock on any
Redemption Date are insufficient to redeem the total number of shares of
Preferred Stock to be redeemed on such date, those funds which are legally
available will be used to redeem the maximum possible number of such shares
ratably among the holders of (A) first, such shares of Series B, Series C,
Series D and Series E Preferred Stock to be redeemed, and (B) second, such
shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed. The shares of Preferred Stock
not redeemed shall remain outstanding and entitled to all the rights and
preferences provided herein. At any time thereafter when additional funds of
this Corporation are legally available for the redemption of shares of Preferred
Stock, such funds shall immediately be used to redeem the balance of the shares
which this Corporation has become obligated to redeem on any Redemption Date but
which it has not redeemed.
(iii) From and after the Redemption Date,
unless there shall have been a default in payment of the applicable Series A
Redemption Price, Series B Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D
Redemption Price or the Series E Redemption Price, all rights of the holders of
such shares as holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock
(except the right to receive the Series A Redemption Price, Series B Redemption
Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D Redemption Price or the Series E
Redemption Price, without interest, upon surrender of their certificate or
certificates) shall cease with respect to such shares, and such shares shall not
thereafter be transferred on the books of this Corporation or be deemed to be
outstanding for any purpose whatsoever.
(iv) At least three days prior to the
Redemption Date, this Corporation shall deposit the Series A Redemption Price,
Series B Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D Redemption Price
and Series E Redemption Price of all outstanding shares of the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, designated for redemption in the
Redemption Notice, and not yet redeemed or converted, with a bank or trust
company having aggregate capital and surplus in excess of $50,000,000, as a
trust fund for the benefit of the holders of the shares designated for
redemption and not yet redeemed. Simultaneously, this Corporation shall deposit
irrevocable instructions and authority to such bank or trust company to pay, on
and after the Redemption Date or prior thereto, the Series A Redemption Price,
Series B Redemption Price, Series C Redemption Price, Series D Redemption Price
and Series E Redemption Price, as the case may be, to the holders thereof upon
surrender of their certificates. Any monies deposited by this Corporation
pursuant to this subsection 4(c)(iv) for the redemption of shares which are
thereafter converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 5 hereof no
later than the close of business on the Redemption Date shall be returned to
this Corporation forthwith upon such conversion. The balance of any monies
deposited by this Corporation pursuant to this subsection 4(c)(iv) remaining
unclaimed at the expiration of two years following the Redemption Date shall
thereafter be returned to this Corporation, provided that the stockholder to
which such monies would be payable hereunder shall be entitled, upon proof of
its ownership of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series
C Preferred Stock,
5
Series D Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the case may be, and
payment of any bond requested by this Corporation, to receive such monies but
without interest from the Redemption Date.
5. CONVERSION. The holders of Preferred Stock shall have
conversion rights as follows (the "Conversion Rights"):
(a) RIGHT TO CONVERT.
(i) Subject to subsection 5(c), each
outstanding share of Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the
holder thereof at any time after the date of issuance of such share (and on or
prior to the fifth day prior to the Redemption Date, if any, as may have been
fixed in any Redemption Notice), at the office of this Corporation or any
transfer agent for such series of Preferred Stock, into such number of fully
paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the
Original Series A Issue Price, the Original Series B Issue Price, the Original
Series C Issue Price, the Original Series D Issue Price and the Original Series
E Issue Price, respectively, by the Conversion Price at the time in effect for
such series or shares of such series. The initial Conversion Price per share for
shares of Preferred Stock shall be the Original Series A Issue Price, the
Original Series B Issue Price, the Original Series C Issue Price, the Original
Series D Issue Price and the Original Series E Issue Price, respectively,
provided, however, that the Conversion Prices for the Series A Preferred Stock,
the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series C Preferred Stock, the Series D
Preferred Stock and the Series E Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment
as set forth in subsection 5(c).
(ii) Each outstanding share of Preferred
Stock shall automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the
Conversion Price at the time in effect for such shares immediately upon:
(A) the closing of this
Corporation's sale of its Common Stock in a bona fide, firm commitment
underwritten public offering registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"), which results in aggregate gross offering
proceeds to this Corporation of at least $15,000,000, at a public offering price
of not less than $7.50 per share (adjusted to reflect subsequent stock
dividends, stock splits or recapitalizations) (a "Qualifying Public Offering");
or
(B) the approval of (i)
holders of at least 75% of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred
Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class and (ii)
holders of not less than 60% of the Series D Preferred Stock voting as a class.
(b) MECHANICS OF CONVERSION. Before any holder
of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to convert the same into shares of Common
Stock, such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor,
duly endorsed, at the office of this Corporation or of any transfer agent for
such stock, and shall be given written notice by mail postage prepaid, to this
Corporation at its principal corporate office, of the election to convert the
same and shall state therein the name or names in which the certificate or
certificates for shares of Common Stock are to be issued. This Corporation
shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver at such
6
office to such holder of Preferred Stock, or to the nominee or nominees of
such holder, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common
Stock to which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. Such conversion
shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business
on the date of such surrender of the shares of such series of Preferred Stock
to be converted, and the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes
as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock as of such
date. If the conversion is in connection with an underwritten offer of
securities registered pursuant to the Securities Act, the conversion may, at
the option of any holder tendering shares of such series of Preferred Stock
for conversion, be conditioned upon the closing with the underwriter of the
sale of securities pursuant to such offering, in which event the person(s)
entitled to receive the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion of shares
of such series of Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to have converted such
shares of such series of Preferred Stock until immediately prior to the
closing of such sale of securities.
(c) CONVERSION PRICE ADJUSTMENTS OF THE
PREFERRED STOCK. The Conversion Prices of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
(i) (A) If this Corporation shall
issue any Additional Stock (as defined below) without consideration or for a
consideration per share less than the Conversion Price for shares of the Series
A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock in effect immediately prior to the
issuance of such Additional Stock, the new Conversion Price for such shares of
such series of Preferred Stock shall be determined by multiplying the Conversion
Price for such series of Preferred Stock in effect immediately prior to the
issuance of Additional Stock by a fraction:
(x) the numerator of
which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such issuance (for purposes of this calculation
only, including the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon
the conversion of all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock at the
Conversion Price for such shares in effect immediately prior to such
issuance of Additional Stock) plus the number of shares of Common Stock
equivalents which the aggregate consideration received by this
Corporation for the shares of such Additional Stock so issued would
purchase at the Conversion Price in effect at the time for the shares
of the series of Preferred Stock with respect to which the adjustment
is being made; and
(y) the denominator
of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such issuance (for purposes of this calculation
only, including the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon
the conversion of all outstanding shares of Preferred Stock at the
Conversion Price for such shares in effect immediately prior to such
issuance of Additional Stock) plus the number of such shares of
Additional Stock so issued.
7
Any series of issuances of Additional Stock consisting of
Common Stock or the same series of Preferred Stock, issued at the same price and
within a six-month period, shall be treated as one issuance of Additional Stock
for the purposes of this calculation.
(B) No adjustment of the
Conversion Price for such series of Preferred Stock shall be made in an amount
less than one cent per share, provided that any adjustments which are not
required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and
shall be either taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made prior to
three years from the date of the event giving rise to the adjustment being
carried forward, or shall be made at the end of three years from the date of the
event giving rise to the adjustment being carried forward. Except to the limited
extent provided for in subsections 5(c)(i)(E)(3) and (c)(i)(E)(4), no adjustment
of such Conversion Price for such series of Preferred Stock pursuant to this
subsection 5(c)(i) shall have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price for
such series of Preferred Stock above the Conversion Price for such series in
effect immediately prior to such adjustment.
(C) In the case of the issuance
of Common Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of
cash paid therefor before deducting any reasonable discounts, commissions or
other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by this Corporation for any
underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof.
(D) In the case of the issuance
of the Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the
consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as
determined by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment.
(E) In the case of the issuance
of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by
their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or options to
purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities
(which are not excluded from the definition of Additional Stock), the following
provisions shall apply:
(1) The aggregate
maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such
options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to
have been issued at the time such options or rights were issued and for a
consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in
subsections 5(c)(i)(C) and (c)(i)(D)), if any, received by the Corporation upon
the issuance of such options or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided
in such options or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby.
(2) The aggregate
maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in
exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the
exercise of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or
exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be
deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such
options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the
consideration, if any, received by this Corporation for any such securities and
related options or rights (excluding any cash received on
8
account of accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the additional
consideration, if any, to be received by this Corporation upon the conversion
or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options or
rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner
provided in subsections 5(c)(i)(C) and (c)(i)(D)).
(3) In the event of
any change in the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable or any increase
in the consideration payable to this Corporation upon exercise of such options
or rights or upon conversion of or in exchange for such convertible or
exchangeable securities, including, but not limited to, a change resulting from
the anti-dilution provisions thereof, the Conversion Price of the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the case may be, obtained with
respect to the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options,
rights or securities, and any subsequent adjustments based thereon shall be
recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment shall be made for
the actual issuance of Common Stock or any payment of such consideration upon
the exercise of any such options or rights or the conversion or exchange of such
securities; provided, however, that this section shall not have any effect on
any conversion of such series of Preferred Stock prior to such change or
increase.
(4) Upon the
expiration of any such options or rights, the termination of any such rights to
convert or exchange or the expiration of any options or rights related to such
convertible or exchangeable securities, the Conversion Price of the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the case may be, obtained with
respect to the adjustment which was made upon the issuance of such options,
rights or securities or options or rights related to such securities, and any
subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall be recomputed to reflect the
issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued upon the
exercise of such options or rights upon the conversion or exchange of such
securities or upon the exercise of the options or rights related to such
securities; provided, however, that this section shall not have any effect on
any conversion of such series of Preferred Stock prior to such expiration or
termination.
(ii) "Additional Stock" shall mean any
shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to
subsection 5(c)(i)(E)) by this Corporation after June 22, 1998, other than:
(A) Common Stock issued
pursuant to a transaction described in subsection 5(c)(iii) hereof, or
(B) 5,454,860 shares of Common
Stock, net of repurchases and the cancellation or expiration of options, issued
or issuable to employees, directors, consultants or advisors of this Corporation
under stock option and restricted stock purchase agreements approved by the
Board of Directors commencing as of May 1994, and such other number of shares of
Common Stock as may be fixed from time to time by the Board of Directors and
approved by a majority of then outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock, voting as a single class, issued or issuable to employees,
directors, consultants or advisors
9
of this Corporation under stock option and restricted stock purchase
agreements approved by the Board of Directors, or
(C) Common Stock issued or
issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred
Stock.
(iii) In the event this Corporation
should at any time or from time to time after the effective date hereof fix a
record date for the effectuation of a split or subdivision of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock or the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled
to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of
Common Stock or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the
holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common
Stock (hereinafter referred to as "Common Stock Equivalents") without payment of
any consideration by such holder for the additional shares of Common Stock or
the Common Stock Equivalents (including the additional shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof), then as of such record date (or
the date of such dividend distribution, split or subdivision if no record date
is fixed), the Conversion Price for the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock or Series E
Preferred Stock, as the case may be, shall be appropriately decreased so that
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of
such series shall be increased in proportion to such increase of outstanding
shares determined in accordance with subsection 5(c)(i)(E).
(iv) If the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding at any time after the effective date hereof is decreased by a
combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, following the
record date of such combination, the Conversion Price for the Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred
Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the case may be, shall be appropriately
increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of
each share of such series shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in
outstanding shares.
(d) OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. In the event this
Corporation shall declare a distribution payable in securities of other persons,
evidences of indebtedness issued by this Corporation or other persons, assets
(excluding cash dividends) or options or rights not referred to in subsection
5(c)(iii), then, in each such case for the purpose of this subsection 5(d), the
holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, shall be
entitled to a proportionate share of any such distribution as though they were
the holders of the number of shares of Common Stock of this Corporation into
which their shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series
C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock, as the
case may be, are convertible as of the record date fixed for the determination
of the holders of Common Stock of this Corporation entitled to receive such
distribution.
(e) RECAPITALIZATIONS. If at any time or from
time to time there shall be a recapitalization of the Common Stock (other than a
subdivision, combination or merger or sale of assets transaction provided for
elsewhere in this Section 5 or Section 6) provision shall be made so that the
holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
10
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, shall
thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of such series of Preferred
Stock the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of this
Corporation or otherwise, to which a holder of Common Stock deliverable upon
conversion would have been entitled on such recapitalization. In any such
case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the
provisions of this Section 5 with respect to the rights of the holders of
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock,
Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, after the
recapitalization to the end that the provisions of this Section 5 (including
adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares
purchasable upon conversion of such series of Preferred Stock) shall be
applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable.
(f) NO IMPAIRMENT. This Corporation will
not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any
reorganization, revitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger,
dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid
or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be
observed or performed hereunder by this Corporation, but will at all times in
good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 5
and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in
order to protect the Conversion Rights of the holders of the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock against impairment.
(g) FRACTIONAL SHARES AND CERTIFICATE AS TO
ADJUSTMENTS.
(i) No fractional shares shall be
issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred
Stock, and the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded to
the nearest whole share. Whether or not fractional shares are issuable upon such
conversion shall be determined on the basis of the total number of shares of
such series of Preferred Stock the holder is at the time converting into Common
Stock and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such aggregate
conversion.
(ii) Upon the occurrence of each
adjustment or, readjustment of the Conversion Price of Series A Preferred Stock,
Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock or
Series E Preferred Stock, as the case may be, pursuant to this Section 5, this
Corporation, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or
readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare and furnish to each
holder of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred
Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, or instrument
convertible into shares of any such series of Preferred Stock, as the case may
be, a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in
detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. This
Corporation shall, upon the written request furnish or cause to be furnished to
such holder a like certificate setting forth (A) such adjustment and
readjustment, (B) the Conversion Price at the time in effect, and (C) the number
of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other property which at the
time would be received upon the conversion of a share of such series of
Preferred Stock.
11
(h) NOTICES OF RECORD DATE. In the event of
any taking by this Corporation of a record of the holders of any class of
securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are
entitled to receive any dividend (other than a cash dividend) or other
distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any
shares of stock of any class or any other securities or property, or to
receive any other right, this Corporation shall mail to each holder of Series
A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series
D Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock at least 20 days prior to the
date specified therein, a notice specifying the date on which by such record
is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right and
the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right.
(i) RESERVATION OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON
CONVERSION. This Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available
out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock solely for the
purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred
Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, such number of its shares of Common Stock
as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all
authorized shares of such series of Preferred Stock, and if at any time the
number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be
sufficient to effect the conversion of all then authorized shares of such
series of Preferred Stock, in addition to such other remedies as shall be
available to the holders of such series of Preferred Stock, this Corporation
will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel be
necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to
such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.
(j) NOTICES. Any notice required by the
provisions of this Section 5 to be given to the holders of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock shall be deemed given if
deposited in the United States postage prepaid, and addressed to each holder
of record at such holder's address appearing on the books of this Corporation.
6. MERGER; CONSOLIDATION.
(a) If at any time after the effective date
hereof there is a merger, consolidation or other corporate reorganization in
which stockholders of this Corporation immediately prior to such transaction own
less than 50% of the voting securities of the surviving or controlling entity
immediately after the transaction, or sale of all or substantially all of the
assets of this Corporation (hereinafter, an "Acquisition"), then, as a part of
such Acquisition, provision shall be made so that the holders of the Series A
Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series C Preferred Stock, the
Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock shall be entitled to
receive, prior to any distribution to holders of Common Stock or other junior
equity security of the Corporation, the number of shares of stock or other
securities or property to be issued to this Corporation or its stockholders
resulting from such Acquisition in an amount per share equal to the Original
Series A Issue Price, Original Series B Issue Price, Original Series C Issue
Price, Original Series D Issue Price and Original Series E Issue Price, as
applicable, plus a further amount equal to any dividends declared but unpaid on
such shares. Subject to the following sentence, the holders of Common Stock
shall thereafter be entitled to receive, pro rata, the remainder of the number
of shares of stock or other securities or
12
property to be issued to this Corporation or its stockholders resulting from
such Acquisition. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6,
in the event the aggregate value of stock, securities and other property to
be distributed to this Corporation or its stockholders with respect to an
Acquisition is less than $5.25 per share (such dollar amount to be
appropriately adjusted to reflect any subsequent stock splits, stock
dividends or other recapitalizations) of Common Stock outstanding (for
purpose of this calculation only, including in the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon
conversion of all outstanding Preferred Stock), then the stock, securities or
other property shall be distributed among the holders of Series A Preferred
Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, the Series D
Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock and the Common Stock according to
the provisions of Section 3 hereof as if such Acquisition were deemed a
liquidation.
(b) Any securities to be delivered to the
holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, the Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock and
Common Stock pursuant to subsection 6(a) above shall be valued as follows:
(i) Securities not subject to investment
letter or other similar restrictions on free marketability;
(A) If traded on a securities
exchange, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices of
the securities on such exchange over the 30-day period ending three days prior
to the closing;
(B) If actively traded
over-the-counter, the value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid
or sale prices (whichever are applicable) over the 30-day period ending three
days prior to the closing; and
(C) If there is no active
public market, the value shall be the fair market value thereof, as mutually
determined by the Corporation and the holders of not less than a majority of the
then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, the Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred
Stock.
(ii) The method of valuation of
securities subject to investment letter or other restrictions on free
marketability shall be to make an appropriate discount from the market value
determined as above in subsections 6(b)(i)(A), (B) or (C) to reflect the
approximate fair market value thereof, as mutually determined by this
Corporation and the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, voting as a single class.
(c) In the event the requirements of
subsection 6(a) are not complied with, this Corporation shall forthwith either:
(i) cause such closing to be postponed
until such time as the requirements of this Section 6 have been complied with,
or
(ii) cancel such transaction, in which
event the rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of the Series A
Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
13
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock shall revert to and be the same as such rights, preferences
and privileges existing immediately prior to the date of the first notice
referred to in subsection 6(d) hereof.
(d) This Corporation shall give each holder of
record of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred
Stock, Series D Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock written notice of
such impending transaction not later than 20 days prior to the stockholders'
meeting called to approve such action, or 20 days prior to the closing of such
transaction, whichever is earlier, and shall also notify such holders in writing
of the final approval of such transaction. The first of such notices shall
describe the material terms and conditions of the impending transaction and the
provisions of this Section 6, and this Corporation shall thereafter give such
holders prompt notice of any material changes. The transaction shall in no event
take place earlier than 20 days after the Corporation has given the first notice
provided for herein or earlier than 10 days after the Corporation has given
notice of any material changes provided for herein; provided, however, that such
periods may be shortened upon the written consent of the holders of a majority
of the then outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock
voting as a class.
(e) The provisions of this Section 6 are in
addition to the protective provisions of Section 8 hereof.
7. VOTING RIGHTS; DIRECTORS.
(a) The holder of each outstanding share of
Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock,
Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock shall have the right to

Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D
Preferred Stock or Series E Preferred Stock could be converted on the record
date for the vote or written consent of stockholders. In all cases any

Offering;
(ii) upon the distribution to the
stockholders pursuant to Section 3 or Section 6 hereof of the net proceeds of
the sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation.

3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE INVESTORS.
Each Investor hereby represents warrants, covenants and agrees that:
3.1 AUTHORIZATION. Such Investor has full power and authority to
enter into this Agreement and that this Agreement constitutes a valid and
legally binding obligation of such Investor.
3.2 PURCHASE ENTIRELY FOR OWN ACCOUNT. This Agreement is made with
each Investor in reliance upon such Investor's representation to the Company,
which by such Investor's execution of this Agreement such Investor hereby
confirms, that the Series F Preferred Stock or the Common Stock issuable upon
conversion thereof (collectively, the "Securities") will be acquired for
investment for such Investor's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and
not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that
such Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation
in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, each
Investor further represents that such Investor does not have any contract,
undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, distribute or
grant participation to such person, or to any third person, with respect to
any of the Securities.
3.3 RELIANCE UPON INVESTORS' REPRESENTATIONS. Each Investor
understands that the issuance of the Securities may not be registered under
the Securities Act on the ground that the sale provided for in this Agreement
and the issuance of the Securities hereunder is exempt from registration
under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof and that the
Company's reliance on such exemption is predicated on the Investors'
representations set forth herein.
3.4 RECEIPT OF INFORMATION. Each Investor believes such Investor has
received all the information such Investor considers necessary for deciding
whether to purchase the Series F Preferred Stock to be issued to it. Each
Investor further represents that such Investor has had an opportunity to ask
questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and
conditions of the offering of the Series F Preferred Stock, and the business,
properties, prospects, and financial condition of the Company and to obtain
additional information (to the extent the Company possessed such information
or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense) necessary to
verify the accuracy of any information furnished to such Investor or to which
such Investor had access. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify
the representations and warranties of the Company in Section 2 of this
Agreement or the right of the Investors to rely thereon.
3.5 INVESTMENT EXPERIENCE. Each Investor represents that such
Investor is experienced in evaluating and investing in securities of
companies in the development state and acknowledges that such Investor is
able to fend for himself, herself or itself, can bear the economic risk of
such Investor's investment, and has such knowledge and experience in
financial and business matters that such Investor is capable of evaluating
the merits and risks of the investment in the Series F Preferred Stock. If
other than an individual, Investor also represents such Investor has not been
organized for the purpose of acquiring the Series F Preferred Stock,
-17-
or if such Investor has been organized for the purpose of acquiring the
Series F Preferred Stock that all investors in such fund are accredited.
3.6 ACCREDITED INVESTOR. Except as otherwise disclosed to the
Company in writing, Investor either is (a) an accredited investor as defined
in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D of the SEC under the Securities Act, or (b)
neither (x) a national or resident of the United States, its territories,
possessions or any area subject to its jurisdiction, nor (y) a corporation,
partnership, trust or other entity created or organized in the United States,
its territories, possessions or any area subject to its jurisdiction, nor (z)
a corporation, partnership, trust or other entity, any of the equity owners
of which is described in clause (x) or (y) above and agrees not to sell,
hypothecate, pledge or otherwise dispose of any interest in the Securities in
the United States, its territories, possessions or any area subject to its
jurisdiction, or to any person who is a national thereof or resident therein
(including any estate of such person), or any corporation, partnership or
other entity created or organized therein, unless such securities have been
either registered under the Securities Act, or are exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act, in the opinion of the
Company's counsel, and Investor has complied with any restrictions on
transfer contained in this Agreement.
3.7 RESTRICTED SECURITIES. Each Investor understands that the Series
F Preferred Stock (and any Common Stock issued on conversion thereof) may not
be sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of without registration under the
Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and that in the absence of an
effective registration statement covering the Preferred Stock or Common Stock
issued on conversion thereof or an available exemption from registration
under the Securities Act, the Series F Preferred Stock (and any Common Stock
issued on conversion thereof) must be held indefinitely. In particular, each
Investor is aware that the Series F Preferred Stock (and any Common Stock
issued on conversion thereof) may not be sold pursuant to Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act unless all of the conditions of that
Rule are met. Among the conditions for use of Rule 144 may be the
availability of current information to the public about the Company. Such
information is not now available, and the Company has no present plans to
make such information available.
3.8 CONFIDENTIALITY. Except for GE Capital Equity Investments, Inc.
who shall be bound by the confidentiality provisions in that certain letter
agreement between the Company and GE Capital Equity Investments, Inc. dated
of even date herewith, each Investor hereby represents, warrants and
covenants that it shall maintain in confidence, and shall not use or disclose
without the prior written consent of the Company, any information identified
as confidential that is furnished to it by the Company in connection with
this Agreement, including (without limitation) all financial statements,
budget and other information delivered or provided to such Investor. This
obligation of confidentiality shall not apply, however, to any information
(i) in the public domain through no unauthorized act or failure to act by
Investor, (ii) lawfully disclosed to Investor by a third party who possessed
such information without any obligation of confidentiality, (iii) known
previously by Investor or lawfully developed by Investor independent of any
disclosure by the Company or (iv) required to be disclosed by law. Each
Investor (other
-18-
than GE Capital Equity Investments, Inc.) further covenants that such
Investor shall return to the Company all tangible materials containing such
information upon request by the Company.
3.9 FURTHER LIMITATIONS ON DISPOSITION. Without in any way limiting
the representations set forth above, each Investor further agrees not to make
any disposition of all or any portion of the Preferred Stock or Common Stock
issued on conversion thereof without the consent of the Company, unless and
until the transferee has agreed in writing for the benefit of the Company to
be bound by this Section 3 and the Investors' Rights Agreement, provided and
to the extent that such sections are applicable, and:
(a) There is then in effect a Registration Statement under the
Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is
made in accordance with such Registration Statement; or
(b) The Investor shall have notified the Company of the
proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed
statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition and, if
reasonably requested by the Company, the Investor shall have furnished the
Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company,
that such disposition will not require registration of such shares under the
Securities Act. It is agreed that the Company will not require opinions of
counsel for transactions made pursuant to Rule 144, as currently in
existence, except in unusual circumstances.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a) and (b)
above, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel or consent of the
Company shall be necessary for a transfer by an Investor to an affiliated
entity which controls, is controlled by, or under common control with, the
Investor, provided that the transferee agrees in writing for the benefit of
the Company to be bound by this Section 3 and the Investors' Rights Agreement.

objection. If the Company does not object thereto within such ten (10) day

(d) The Company shall reimburse the Investors for any
attorneys' fees and expenses constituting Losses pursuant to this Section
6.15 promptly and in no event later than fifteen (15) days following receipt

LITIGATION
In June 2001, the Company received a letter from an attorney
representing American Medical Systems ("AMS") alleging that the Company breached
the terms of an exclusive distributorship agreement and demanding payment of
approximately $210,000.
In July 2001, the Company was served with a Writ of Garnishment with
respect to GENESIS PHARMACY SERVICES V. FLORIDA CARDIOLOGY AND NUCLEAR MEDICINE
GROUP, P.A. ET AL., a case currently pending in Hillsborough County, Florida
Civil Court. The plaintiff in the cause of action, Genesis Pharmacy Services
("Genesis"), is seeking approximately $157,600 plus interest from the defendants
("Florida Cardiology"). The Company has not been named as party to the
litigation. The Company purchased certain of the assets of Florida Cardiology
pursuant to a certain Asset Purchase Agreement executed with the defendants.
Through the Writ of Garnishment, Genesis is apparently attempting to determine
what funds Florida Cardiology and/or Dr. Kilgore may be owed by the Company. The
Company has engaged Florida counsel to assist with the Company's possible
involvement in the dispute.
In July 2001, the Company was served notice that MEDICAL MANAGEMENT CONCEPTS,
INC. V. DIGIRAD CORPORATION, ET AL. (the "Complaint") had been filed in the
United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The
Complaint alleges, among other things, breach of the terms of a certain Services
Agreement and Employee Lease Agreement, each dated September 2000 and entered
into by and between Digirad Imaging Systems, Inc. and Medical Management
Concepts, and seeks recovery of damages in an amount in excess of $150,000, more
specifically, approximately $81,000 plus 12.5% of the adjusted Estimated Net
Revenue generated from gross sums billed to the Company's mobile nuclear imaging
customers from May 1, 2001 to October 31, 2003, as more fully described in the
NIS Agreement referenced in Section 2.5 (a) above. The Company has engaged

EXHIBIT A
IMMEDIATELY EXERCISABLE
DIGIRAD CORPORATION
STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
AGREEMENT made as of this ___ day of ___________, 19__, by and among
Digirad Corporation, (the "Corporation"), _____________________, the holder of
a stock option (the "Optionee") under the Corporation's 1997 Stock Option/Stock
Issuance Plan and _______________, the Optionee's spouse.
I. EXERCISE OF OPTION
1.1 EXERCISE. Optionee hereby purchases ______________ shares
("Purchased Shares") of the Corporation's common stock ("Common Stock") pursuant
to that certain option ("Option") granted Optionee on _____________, 19___
("Grant Date") to purchase up to ____________ shares of the Common Stock ("Total
Purchasable Shares") under the Corporation's 1997 Stock Option/Stock Issuance
Plan (the "Plan") at an option price of $__________ per share ("Option Price").
1.2 PAYMENT. Concurrently with the delivery of this Agreement
to the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation, Optionee shall pay the Option
Price for the Purchased Shares in accordance with the provisions of the
agreement between the Corporation and Optionee evidencing the Option (the
"Option Agreement") and shall deliver whatever additional documents may be
required by the Option Agreement as a condition for exercise, together with a
duly-executed blank Assignment Separate from Certificate (in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit I) with respect to the Purchased Shares.
1.3 DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATES. The certificates representing
the Purchased Shares hereunder shall be held in escrow by the Corporate
Secretary of the Corporation in accordance with the provisions of Article VII.
1.4 SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS. Until such time as the Corporation
actually exercises its repurchase right, rights of first refusal or special
purchase right under this Agreement, Optionee (or any successor in interest)
shall have all the rights of a shareholder (including voting and dividend
rights) with respect to the Purchased Shares, including the Purchased Shares
held in escrow under Article VII, subject, however, to the transfer restrictions
of Article IV.
II. SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE
2.1 EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION. The Purchased Shares have not
been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"),
and are accordingly being issued to Optionee in reliance upon the exemption from
such registration provided by Rule 701 of the Securities and Exchange Commission
for stock issuances under compensatory benefit plans such as the Plan. Optionee
hereby acknowledges previous receipt of a copy of the documentation for such
Plan in the form
of Exhibit C to the Notice of Grant of Stock Option (the "Grant Notice")
accompanying the Option Agreement.
2.2 RESTRICTED SECURITIES.
A. Optionee hereby confirms that Optionee has been informed
that the Purchased Shares are restricted securities under the 1933 Act and may
not be resold or transferred unless the Purchased Shares are first registered
under the Federal securities laws or unless an exemption from such registration
is available. Accordingly, Optionee hereby acknowledges that Optionee is
prepared to hold the Purchased Shares for an indefinite period and that Optionee
is aware that Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission issued under
the 1933 Act is not presently available to exempt the sale of the Purchased
Shares from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act.
B. Upon the expiration of the ninety (90)-day period
immediately following the date on which the Corporation first becomes subject to
the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "Exchange Act"), the Purchased Shares, to the extent vested under Article
V, may be sold (without registration) pursuant to the applicable requirements of
Rule 144. If Optionee is at the time of such sale an affiliate of the
Corporation for purposes of Rule 144 or was such an affiliate during the
preceding three (3) months, then the sale must comply with all the requirements
of Rule 144 (including the volume limitation on the number of shares sold, the
broker/market-maker sale requirement and the requisite notice to the Securities
and Exchange Commission); however, the two (2)-year holding period requirement
of the Rule will not be applicable. If Optionee is not at the time of the sale
an affiliate of the Corporation nor was such an affiliate during the preceding
three (3) months, then none of the requirements of Rule 144 (other than the
broker/market-maker sale requirement for Purchased Shares held for less than
three (3) years following payment in cash of the Option Price therefor) will be
applicable to the sale.
C. Should the Corporation not become subject to the reporting
requirements of the Exchange Act, then Optionee may, provided he/she is not at
the time an affiliate of the Corporation (nor was such an affiliate during the
preceding three (3) months), sell the Purchased Shares (without registration)
pursuant to paragraph (k) of Rule 144 after the Purchased Shares have been held
for a period of three (3) years following the payment in cash of the Option
Price for such shares.
2.3 DISPOSITION OF SHARES. Optionee hereby agrees that
Optionee shall make no disposition of the Purchased Shares (other than a
permitted transfer under paragraph 4.1) unless and until there is compliance
with all of the following requirements:
(a) Optionee shall have notified the Corporation of
the proposed disposition and provided a written summary of the terms
and conditions of the proposed disposition.
(b) Optionee shall have complied with all
require-ments of this Agreement applicable to the disposition of the
Purchased Shares.
-2-
(c) Optionee shall have provided the Corporation with
written assurances, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Corporation, that (i) the proposed disposition does not require
registration of the Purchased Shares under the 1933 Act or (ii) all
appropriate action necessary for compliance with the registration
requirements of the 1933 Act or of any exemption from registration
available under the 1933 Act (including Rule 144) has been taken.
(d) Optionee shall have provided the Corporation with
written assurances, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Corporation, that the proposed disposition will not result in the
contravention of any transfer restrictions applicable to the Purchased
Shares pursuant to the provisions of the Commissioner Rules identified
in paragraph 2.5.
The Corporation shall not be required (i) to transfer on its
books any Purchased Shares which have been sold or transferred in violation of
the provisions of this Article II nor (ii) to treat as the owner of the
Purchased Shares, or otherwise to accord voting or dividend rights to, any
transferee to whom the Purchased Shares have been transferred in contravention
of this Agreement.
2.4 RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS. In order to reflect the restrictions
on disposition of the Purchased Shares, the stock certificates for the Purchased
Shares will be endorsed with restrictive legends, including one or more of the
following legends:
(i) "The shares represented by this certificate have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933. The shares may not be sold or
offered for sale in the absence of (a) an effective registration statement for
the shares under such Act, (b) a 'no action' letter of the Securities and
Exchange Commission with respect to such sale or offer, or (c) satisfactory
assurances to the Corporation that registration under such Act is not required
with respect to such sale or offer."
(ii) "The shares represented by this certificate are unvested
and accordingly may not be sold, assigned, transferred, encumbered, or in any
manner disposed of except in conformity with the terms of a written agreement
dated ____________, 19 __ between the Corporation and the registered holder of
the shares (or the predecessor in interest to the shares). Such agreement grants
certain repurchase rights and rights of first refusal to the Corporation (or its
assignees) upon the sale, assignment, transfer, encumbrance or other disposition
of the Corporation's shares or upon termination of service with the Corporation.
The Corporation will upon written request furnish a copy of such agreement to
the holder hereof without charge."
III. SPECIAL TAX ELECTION
3.1 SECTION 83(b) ELECTION APPLICABLE TO THE EXERCISE OF A
NON-STATUTORY STOCK OPTION. If the Purchased Shares are acquired hereunder
pursuant to the exercise of a non-statutory stock option, as specified in the
Grant Notice, then the Optionee understands that under Section 83 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the excess of the fair
market value of the Purchased Shares on the
-3-
date any forfeiture restrictions applicable to such shares lapse over the
Option Price paid for such shares will be reportable as ordinary income on
such lapse date. For this purpose, the term "forfeiture restrictions"
includes the right of the Corporation to repurchase the Purchased Shares
pursuant to the Repurchase Right provided under Article V of this Agreement.
Optionee understands that he/she may elect under Section 83(b) of the Code to
be taxed at the time the Purchased Shares are acquired hereunder, rather than
when and as such Purchased Shares cease to be subject to such forfeiture
restrictions. Such election must be filed with the Internal Revenue Service
within thirty (30) days after the date of this Agreement. Even if the fair
market value of the Purchased Shares at the date of this Agreement equals the
Option Price paid (and thus no tax is payable), the election must be made to
avoid adverse tax consequences in the future. THE FORM FOR MAKING THIS
ELECTION IS ATTACHED AS EXHIBIT II HERETO. OPTIONEE UNDERSTANDS THAT FAILURE
TO MAKE THIS FILING WITHIN THE THIRTY (30)-DAY PERIOD WILL RESULT IN THE
RECOGNITION OF ORDINARY INCOME BY THE OPTIONEE AS THE FORFEITURE RESTRICTIONS
LAPSE.
3.2 CONDITIONAL SECTION 83(b) ELECTION APPLICABLE TO THE
EXERCISE OF AN INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION. If the Purchased Shares are acquired
hereunder pursuant to the exercise of an incentive stock option under the
Federal tax laws, as specified in the Grant Notice, then the following tax
principles shall be applicable to the Purchased Shares:
A. For regular tax purposes, no taxable income will
be recognized at the time the Option is exercised.
B. The excess of (i) the fair market value of the
Purchased Shares on the date the Option is exercised or (if later) on
the date any forfeiture restrictions applicable to the Purchased Shares
lapse over (ii) the Option Price paid for the Purchased Shares will be
includible in the Optionee's taxable income for alternative minimum tax
purposes.
C. If the Optionee makes a disqualifying disposition
of the Purchased Shares, then the Optionee will recognize ordinary
income in the year of such disposition equal in amount to the excess of
(i) the fair market value of the Purchased Shares on the date the
Option is exercised or (if later) on the date any forfeiture
restrictions applicable to the Purchased Shares lapse over (ii) the
Option Price paid for the Purchased Shares. Any additional gain
recognized upon the disqualifying disposition will be either short-term
or long-term capital gain depending upon the period for which the
Purchased Shares are held prior to the disposition.
D. For purposes of the foregoing, the term
"forfeiture restrictions" will include the right of the Corporation to
repurchase the Purchased Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Right
provided under Article V of this Agreement. The term "disqualifying
disposition" means any sale or other
-4-
disposition (1/) of the Purchased Shares within two (2) years after
the Grant Date or within one (1) year after the execution date of
this Agreement.
E. In the absence of final Treasury Regulations
relating to incentive stock options, it is not certain whether the
Optionee may, in connection with the exercise of the Option for any
Purchased Shares at the time subject to forfeiture restrictions, file a
protective election under Section 83(b) of the Code which would limit
(I) the Optionee's alternative minimum taxable income upon exercise and
(II) the Optionee's ordinary income upon a disqualifying disposition,
to the excess of (i) the fair market value of the Purchased Shares on
the date the Option is exercised over (ii) the Option Price paid for
the Purchased Shares. THE APPROPRIATE FORM FOR MAKING SUCH A PROTECTIVE
ELECTION IS ATTACHED AS EXHIBIT II TO THIS AGREEMENT AND MUST BE FILED
WITH THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER THE
DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT. HOWEVER, SUCH ELECTION IF PROPERLY FILED WILL
ONLY BE ALLOWED TO THE EXTENT THE FINAL TREASURY REGULATIONS PERMIT
SUCH A PROTECTIVE ELECTION.
3.3 OPTIONEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS OPTIONEE'S SOLE
RESPONSIBILITY, AND NOT THE CORPORATION'S, TO FILE A TIMELY ELECTION UNDER
SECTION 83(b), EVEN IF OPTIONEE REQUESTS THE CORPORATION OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES
TO MAKE THIS FILING ON HIS/HER BEHALF. This filing should be made by registered
or certified mail, return receipt requested, and Optionee must retain two (2)
copies of the completed form for filing with his or her State and Federal tax
returns for the current tax year and an additional copy for his or her records.
IV. TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS
4.1 RESTRICTION ON TRANSFER. Optionee shall not transfer,
assign, encumber or otherwise dispose of any of the Purchased Shares which are
subject to the Corporation's Repur-chase Right under Article V. In addition,
Purchased Shares which are released from the Repurchase Right shall not be
transferred, assigned, encumbered or otherwise made the subject of disposition
in contravention of the Corporation's First Refusal Right under Article VI. Such
restrictions on transfer, however, shall not be applicable to (i) a gratuitous
transfer of the Purchased Shares made to the Optionee's spouse or issue,
including adopted children, or to a trust for the exclusive benefit of the
Optionee or the Optionee's spouse or issue, PROVIDED AND ONLY if the Optionee
obtains the Corporation's prior written consent to such transfer, (ii) a
transfer of title to the Purchased Shares effected pursuant to the Optionee's
will or the laws of intestate succession or (iii) a
-----------------
(1/) Generally, a disposition of shares purchased under an incentive
stock option includes any transfer of legal title, including a transfer by sale,
exchange or gift, but does not include a transfer to the Optionee's spouse, a
transfer into joint ownership with right of survivorship if Optionee remains one
of the joint owners, a pledge, a transfer by bequest or inheritance or certain
tax free exchanges permitted under the Code.
-5-
transfer to the Corporation in pledge as security for any purchase-money
indebtedness incurred by the Optionee in connection with the acquisition of
the Purchased Shares.
4.2 TRANSFEREE OBLIGATIONS. Each person (other than the
Corporation) to whom the Purchased Shares are transferred by means of one of the
permitted transfers specified in paragraph 4.1 must, as a condition precedent to
the validity of such transfer, acknowledge in writing to the Corporation that
such person is bound by the provisions of this Agreement and that the
transferred shares are subject to (i) both the Corporation's Repurchase Right
and the Corporation's First Refusal Right granted hereunder and (ii) the market
stand-off provisions of paragraph 4.4, to the same extent such shares would be
so subject if retained by the Optionee.
4.3 DEFINITION OF OWNER. For purposes of Articles IV, V, VI
and VII of this Agreement, the term "Owner" shall include the Optionee and all
subsequent holders of the Purchased Shares who derive their chain of ownership
through a permitted transfer from the Optionee in accordance with paragraph 4.1.
4.4 MARKET STAND-OFF PROVISIONS.
A. In connection with any underwritten public offering by the
Corporation of its equity securities pursuant to an effective registration
statement filed under the 1933 Act, including the Corporation's initial public
offering, Owner shall not sell, make any short sale of, loan, hypothecate,
pledge, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose or transfer
for value or otherwise agree to engage in any of the foregoing transactions with
respect to, any Purchased Shares without the prior written consent of the
Corporation or its underwriters. Such limitations shall be in effect for such
period of time from and after the effective date of such registration statement
as may be requested by the Corporation or such underwriters; PROVIDED, however,
that in no event shall such period exceed one hundred-eighty (180) days. The
limitations of this paragraph 4.4 shall remain in effect for the two-year period
immediately following the effective date of the Corporation's initial public
offering and shall thereafter terminate and cease to have any force or effect.
B. Owner shall be subject to the market stand-off provisions
of this paragraph 4.4 PROVIDED AND ONLY IF the officers and directors of the
Corporation are also subject to similar arrangements.
C. In the event of any stock dividend, stock split,
recapitalization or other change affecting the Corporation's outstanding Common
Stock effected as a class without receipt of considera-tion, then any new,
substituted or additional securities distributed with respect to the Purchased
Shares shall be immediately subject to the provisions of this paragraph 4.4, to
the same extent the Purchased Shares are at such time covered by such
provisions.
D. In order to enforce the limitations of this paragraph 4.4,
the Corporation may impose stop-transfer instruc-tions with respect to the
Purchased Shares until the end of the applicable stand-off period.
-6-
V. REPURCHASE RIGHT
5.1 GRANT. The Corporation is hereby granted the right (the
"Repurchase Right"), exercisable at any time during the sixty (60)-day period
following the date the Optionee ceases for any reason to remain in Service or
(if later) during the sixty (60)-day period following the execution date of this
Agreement, to repurchase at the Option Price all or (at the discretion of the
Corporation and with the consent of the Optionee) any portion of the Purchased
Shares in which the Optionee has not acquired a vested interest in accordance
with the vesting provisions of paragraph 5.3 (such shares to be hereinafter
called the "Unvested Shares"). For purposes of this Agreement, the Optionee
shall be deemed to remain in Service for so long as the Optionee continues to
render periodic services to the Corporation or any parent or subsidiary
corporation, whether as an employee, a non-employee member of the board of
directors, or an independent contractor or consultant.
5.2 EXERCISE OF THE REPURCHASE RIGHT. The Repurchase Right
shall be exercisable by written notice delivered to the Owner of the Unvested
Shares prior to the expiration of the applicable sixty (60)-day period specified
in paragraph 5.1. The notice shall indicate the number of Unvested Shares to be
repurchased and the date on which the repurchase is to be effected, such date to
be not more than thirty (30) days after the date of notice. To the extent one or
more certificates representing Unvested Shares may have been previously
delivered out of escrow to the Owner, then Owner shall, prior to the close of
business on the date specified for the repurchase, deliver to the Secretary of
the Corporation the certificates representing the Unvested Shares to be
repurchased, each certificate to be properly endorsed for transfer. The
Corporation shall, concurrently with the receipt of such stock certificates
(either from escrow in accordance with paragraph 7.3 or from Owner as herein
provided), pay to Owner in cash or cash equivalents (including the cancellation
of any purchase-money indebtedness), an amount equal to the Option Price
previously paid for the Unvested Shares which are to be repurchased.
5.3 TERMINATION OF THE REPURCHASE RIGHT. The Repurchase Right
shall terminate with respect to any Unvested Shares for which it is not timely
exercised under paragraph 5.2. In addition, the Repurchase Right shall
terminate, and cease to be exercisable, with respect to any and all Purchased
Shares in which the Optionee vests in accordance with the vesting schedule
specified in the Grant Notice. All Purchased Shares as to which the Repurchase
Right lapses shall, however, continue to be subject to (i) the First Refusal
Right of the Corporation and its assignees under Article VI, (ii) the market
stand-off provisions of paragraph 4.4 and (iii) the Special Purchase Right under
Article VIII.
5.4 AGGREGATE VESTING LIMITATION. If the Option is exercised
in more than one increment so that the Optionee is a party to one or more other
Stock Purchase Agreements ("Prior Purchase Agreements") which are executed prior
to the date of this Agreement, then the total number of Purchased Shares as to
which the Optionee shall be deemed to have a fully-vested interest under this
Agreement and all Prior Purchase Agreements shall not exceed in the aggregate
the number of Purchased Shares in which the Optionee would otherwise at the time
be vested, in accordance with the vesting
-7-
provisions of paragraph 5.3, had all the Purchased Shares been acquired
exclusively under this Agreement.
5.5 FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares shall be
repurchased by the Corporation. Accordingly, should the Repurchase Right extend
to a fractional share (in accordance with the vesting provisions of paragraph
5.3) at the time the Optionee ceases Service, then such fractional share shall
be added to any fractional share in which the Optionee is at such time vested in
order to make one whole vested share no longer subject to the Repurchase Right.
5.6 ADDITIONAL SHARES OR SUBSTITUTED SECURITIES. In the event
of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or other change affecting
the Corporation's outstanding Common Stock as a class effected without receipt
of consideration, then any new, substituted or additional securities or other
property (including money paid other than as a regular cash dividend) which is
by reason of any such transaction distributed with respect to the Purchased
Shares shall be immediately subject to the Repurchase Right, but only to the
extent the Purchased Shares are at the time covered by such right. Appropriate
adjustments to reflect the distribution of such securities or property shall be
made to the number of Purchased Shares and Total Purchasable Shares hereunder
and to the price per share to be paid upon the exercise of the Repurchase Right
in order to reflect the effect of any such transaction upon the Corporation's
capital structure; provided, however, that the aggregate purchase price shall
remain the same.
5.7 CORPORATE TRANSACTION.
A. The Repurchase Rights shall automatically terminate and
cease to be exercisable upon the consummation of any Corporate Transaction,
provided that such repurchase right shall not terminate if and to the extent the
Repurchase Rights are assigned to the successor corporation (or parent thereof)
in connection with such Corporate Transaction.
B. Repurchase rights which are assigned in connection with a
Corporate Transaction shall be exercisable with respect to the property issued
to the Optionee upon consummation of such Corporate Transaction in exchange for
the Common Stock held by the Optionee subject to the repurchase rights
immediately prior to the Corporate Transaction.
C. Any Repurchase Rights which are assigned in a Corporate
Transaction and do not otherwise become vested at that time, shall automatically
terminate and cease to be exercisable in the event the Optionee's Service should
subsequently terminate by reason of an Involuntary Termination within
twenty-four (24) months following the effective date of such Corporate
Transaction.
D. This Agreement shall not in any way affect the right of the
Corporation to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise make changes in its
capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or
sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.
-8-
VI. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL
6.1 GRANT. The Corporation is hereby granted rights of first
refusal (the "First Refusal Right"), exercisable in connection with any proposed
transfer of the Purchased Shares in which the Optionee has vested in accordance
with the vesting provisions of Article V. For purposes of this Article VI, the
term "transfer" shall include any sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or other
disposition for value of the Purchased Shares intended to be made by the Owner,
but shall not include any of the permitted transfers under paragraph 4.1.
6.2 NOTICE OF INTENDED DISPOSITION. In the event the Owner
desires to accept a bona fide third-party offer for the transfer of any or all
of the Purchased Shares (the shares subject to such offer to be hereinafter
called the "Target Shares"), Owner shall promptly (i) deliver to the Corporate
Secretary of the Corporation written notice (the "Disposition Notice") of the
terms and conditions of the offer, including the purchase price and the identity
of the third-party offeror, and (ii) provide satisfactory proof that the
disposition of the Target Shares to such third-party offeror would not be in
contravention of the provisions set forth in Articles II and IV of this
Agreement.
6.3 EXERCISE OF RIGHT. The Corporation shall, for a period of
forty-five (45) days following receipt of the Disposition Notice, have the right
to repurchase any or all of the Target Shares specified in the Disposition
Notice upon the same terms and conditions specified therein or upon terms and
conditions which do not materially vary from those specified therein. Such right
shall be exercisable by delivery of written notice (the "Exercise Notice") to
Owner prior to the expiration of the forty-five (45)-day exercise period. If
such right is exercised with respect to all the Target Shares specified in the
Disposition Notice, then the Corporation (or its assignees) shall effect the
repurchase of the Target Shares, including payment of the purchase price, not
more than ten (10) business days after delivery of the Exercise Notice; and at
such time Owner shall deliver to the Corporation the certificates repre-senting
the Target Shares to be repurchased, each certificate to be properly endorsed
for transfer. To the extent any of the Target Shares are at the time held in
escrow under Article VII, the certificates for such shares shall automatically
be released from escrow and delivered to the Corporation for purchase. Should
the purchase price specified in the Disposition Notice be payable in property
other than cash or evidences of indebtedness, the Corporation (or its assignees)
shall have the right to pay the purchase price in the form of cash equal in
amount to the value of such property. If the Owner and the Corporation (or its
assignees) cannot agree on such cash value within ten (10) days after the
Corporation's receipt of the Disposition Notice, the valuation shall be made by
an appraiser of recognized standing selected by the Owner and the Corporation
(or its assignees) or, if they cannot agree on an appraiser within twenty (20)
days after the Corporation's receipt of the Disposition Notice, each shall
select an appraiser of recognized standing and the two appraisers shall
designate a third appraiser of recognized standing, whose appraisal shall be
determinative of such value. The cost of such appraisal shall be shared equally
by the Owner and the Corporation. The closing shall then be held on the later of
(i) the tenth business day following delivery of the Exercise Notice or (ii) the
tenth business day after such cash valuation shall have been made.
-9-
6.4 NON-EXERCISE OF RIGHT. In the event the Exercise Notice is
not given to Owner within forty-five (45) days following the date of the
Corporation's receipt of the Dis-position Notice, Owner shall have a period of
thirty (30) days thereafter in which to sell or otherwise dispose of the Target
Shares to the third-party offeror identified in the Disposition Notice upon
terms and conditions (including the purchase price) no more favorable to such
third-party offeror than those specified in the Disposition Notice; provided,
however, that any such sale or disposition must not be effected in contravention
of the provisions of Article II of this Agreement. To the extent any of the
Target Shares are at the time held in escrow under Article VII, the certificates
for such shares shall automatically be released from escrow and surrendered to
the Owner. The third-party offeror shall acquire the Target Shares free and
clear of the Corporation's Repurchase Right under Article V and the
Corporation's First Refusal Right hereunder, but the acquired shares shall
remain subject to (i) the securities law restrictions of paragraph 2.2(a) and
(ii) the market stand-off provisions of paragraph 4.4. In the event Owner does
not effect such sale or disposition of the Target Shares within the specified
thirty (30)-day period, the Corporation's First Refusal Right shall continue to
be applicable to any subsequent disposition of the Target Shares by Owner until
such right lapses in accordance with paragraph 6.7.
6.5 PARTIAL EXERCISE OF RIGHT. In the event the Corporation
(or its assignees) makes a timely exercise of the First Refusal Right with
respect to a portion, but not all, of the Target Shares specified in the
Disposition Notice, Owner shall have the option, exercisable by written notice
to the Corporation delivered within thirty (30) days after the date of the
Disposition Notice, to effect the sale of the Target Shares pursuant to one of
the following alternatives:
(i) sale or other disposition of all the
Target Shares to the third-party offeror identified in the Disposition
Notice, but in full compliance with the requirements of paragraph 6.4,
as if the Corporation did not exercise the First Refusal Right
hereunder; or
(ii) sale to the Corporation (or its
assignees) of the portion of the Target Shares which the Corporation
(or its assignees) has elected to purchase, such sale to be effected in
substantial conformity with the provisions of paragraph 6.3.
Failure of Owner to deliver timely notification to the
Corporation under this paragraph 6.5 shall be deemed to be an election by Owner
to sell the Target Shares pursuant to alternative (i) above.
6.6 RECAPITALIZATION/MERGER.
(a) In the event of any stock dividend, stock split,
recapitalization or other transaction affecting the Corporation's outstanding
Common Stock as a class effected without receipt of consideration, then any new,
substituted or additional securities or other property which is by reason of
such transaction distributed with respect to the Purchased Shares shall be
immediately subject to the Corporation's
-10-
First Refusal Right hereunder, but only to the extent the Purchased Shares
are at the time covered by such right.
(b) In the event of any of the following transactions:
(i) a merger or consolidation
in which the Corporation is not the surviving entity,
(ii) a sale, transfer or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the Corporation's assets,
(iii) a reverse merger in which
the Corporation is the surviving entity but in which the Corporation's
outstanding voting securities are transferred in whole or in part to
person or persons other than those who held such securities immediately
prior to the merger, or
(iv) any transaction effected
primarily to change the State in which the Corporation is incorporated,
or to create a holding company structure,
the Corporation's First Refusal Right shall remain in full
force and effect and shall apply to the new capital stock or other property
received in exchange for the Purchased Shares in consummation of the transaction
but only to the extent the Purchased Shares are at the time covered by such
right.
6.7 LAPSE. The First Refusal Right under this Article VI shall
lapse and cease to have effect upon the earliest to occur of (i) the first date
on which shares of the Corporation's Common Stock are held of record by more
than five hundred (500) persons, (ii) a determination is made by the
Corporation's Board of Directors that a public market exists for the outstanding
shares of the Corporation's Common Stock, or (iii) a firm commitment
underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement
under the 1933 Act, covering the offer and sale of the Corporation's Common
Stock in the aggregate amount of at least $5,000,000. However, the market
stand-off provisions of paragraph 4.4 shall continue to remain in full force and
effect following the lapse of the First Refusal Right hereunder.
VII. ESCROW
7.1 DEPOSIT. Upon issuance, the certificates for any Unvested
Shares purchased hereunder shall be deposited in escrow with the Corporate
Secretary of the Corporation- to be held in accordance with the provisions of
this Article VII. Each deposited certificate shall be accompanied by a
duly-executed Assignment Separate from Certificate in the form of Exhibit I. The
deposited certificates, together with any other assets or securities from time
to time deposited with the Corporate Secretary pursuant to the requirements of
this Agreement, shall remain in escrow until such time or times as the
certificates (or other assets and securities) are to be released or otherwise
surrendered for cancellation in accordance with paragraph 7.3. Upon delivery of
the certificates (or other assets and securities) to the Corporate Secretary of
the Corporation, the Owner shall be
-11-
issued an instrument of deposit acknowledging the number of Unvested Shares
(or other assets and securities) delivered in escrow.
7.2 RECAPITALIZATION. All regular cash dividends on the
Unvested Shares (or other securities at the time held in escrow) shall be paid
directly to the Owner and shall not be held in escrow. However, in the event of
any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or other change affecting the
Corporation's outstanding Common Stock as a class effected without receipt of
consideration or in the event of a Corporate Transaction, any new, substituted
or additional securities or other property which is by reason of such
transaction distributed with respect to the Unvested Shares shall be immediately
delivered to the Corporate Secretary to be held in escrow under this Article
VII, but only to the extent the Unvested Shares are at the time subject to the
escrow requirements of paragraph 7.1.
7.3 RELEASE/SURRENDER. The Unvested Shares, together with any
other assets or securities held in escrow hereunder, shall be subject to the
following terms and conditions relating to their release from escrow or their
surrender to the Corporation for repurchase and cancellation:
(i) Should the Corporation (or its
assignees) elect to exercise the Repurchase Right under Article V with
respect to any Unvested Shares, then the escrowed certificates for such
Unvested Shares (together with any other assets or securities issued
with respect thereto) shall be delivered to the Corporation
concurrently with the payment to the Owner, in cash or cash equivalent
(including the cancellation of any purchase-money indebtedness), of an
amount equal to the aggregate Option Price for such Unvested Shares,
and the Owner shall cease to have any further rights or claims with
respect to such Unvested Shares (or other assets or securities
attributable to such Unvested Shares).
(ii) Should the Corporation (or its
assignees) elect to exercise its First Refusal Right under Article VI
with respect to any vested Target Shares held at the time in escrow
hereunder, then the escrowed certificates for such Target Shares
(together with any other assets or securities attributable thereto)
shall, concurrently with the payment of the paragraph 6.3 purchase
price for such Target Shares to the Owner, be surrendered to the
Corporation, and the Owner shall cease to have any further rights or
claims with respect to such Target Shares (or other assets or
securities).
(iii) Should the Corporation (or its
assignees) elect not to exercise its First Refusal Right under Article
VI with respect to any Target Shares held at the time in escrow
hereunder, then the escrowed certificates for such Target Shares
(together with any other assets or securities attributable thereto)
shall be surrendered to the Owner for disposition in accordance with
provisions of paragraph 6.4.
(iv) As the interest of the Optionee in
the Unvested Shares (or any other assets or securities attributable
thereto) vests in accordance
-12-
with the provisions of Article V, the certificates for such vested
shares (as well as all other vested assets and securities) shall be
released from escrow and delivered to the Owner in accordance with the
following schedule:
a. The initial release of
vested shares (or other vested assets and securities) from
escrow shall be effected within thirty (30) days following the
expiration of the initial twelve (12)-month period measured
from the Grant Date.
b. Subsequent releases of
vested shares (or other vested assets and securities) from
escrow shall be effected at semi-annual intervals thereafter,
with the first such semi-annual release to occur eighteen (18)
months after the Grant Date.
c. Upon the Optionee's
cessation of Service, any escrowed Purchased Shares (or other
assets or securities) in which the Optionee is at the time
vested shall be promptly released from escrow.
d. Upon any earlier
termination of the Corporation-'s Repurchase Right in
accordance with the applicable provisions of Article V, any
Purchased Shares (or other assets or securities) at the time
held in escrow hereunder shall promptly be released to the
Owner as fully-vested shares or other property.
(v) All Purchased Shares (or other
assets or securities) released from escrow in accordance with the
provisions of subparagraph (iv) above shall nevertheless remain subject
to (I) the Corporation's First Refusal Right under Article VI until
such right lapses pursuant to paragraph 6.7, (II) the market stand-off
provisions of paragraph 4.4 until such provisions terminate in
accordance therewith and (III) the Special Purchase Right under Article
VIII.
VIII. MARITAL DISSOLUTION OR LEGAL SEPARATION
8.1 GRANT. In connection with the dissolution of the
Optionee's marriage or the legal separation of the Optionee and the Optionee's
spouse, the Corporation shall have the right (the "Special Purchase Right"),
exercisable at any time during the thirty (30)-day period following the
Corporation's receipt of the required Dissolution Notice under paragraph 8.2, to
purchase from the Optionee's spouse, in accordance with the provisions of
paragraph 8.3, all or any portion of the Purchased Shares which would otherwise
be awarded to such spouse in settlement of any community property or other
marital property rights such spouse may have in such shares.
8.2 NOTICE OF DECREE OR AGREEMENT. The Optionee shall promptly
provide the Secretary of the Corporation with written notice (the "Dissolution
Notice") of (i) the entry of any judicial decree or order resolving the property
rights of the Optionee and the Optionee's spouse in connection with their
marital dissolu-tion or legal separation or (ii) the execution of any contract
or agreement relating to the distribution or division of
-13-
such property rights. The Dissolution Notice shall be accompanied by a copy
of the actual decree of dissolution or settlement agreement between the
Optionee and the Optionee's spouse which provides for the award to the spouse
of one or more Purchased Shares in settlement of any community property or
other marital property rights such spouse may have in such shares.
8.3 EXERCISE OF SPECIAL PURCHASE RIGHT. The Special Purchase
Right shall be exercisable by delivery of written notice (the "Purchase Notice")
to the Optionee and the Optionee's spouse within thirty (30) days after the
Corporation's receipt of the Dissolution Notice. The Purchase Notice shall
indicate the number of shares to be purchased by the Corporation, the date such
purchase is to be effected (such date to be not less than five (5) business
days, nor more than ten (10) business days, after the date of the Purchase
Notice), and the fair market value to be paid for such Purchased Shares. The
Optionee (or the Optionee's spouse, to the extent such spouse has physical
possession of the Purchased Shares) shall, prior to the close of business on the
date specified for the purchase, deliver to the Corporate Secretary of the
Corporation the certificates representing the shares to be purchased, each
certificate to be properly endorsed for transfer. To the extent any of the
shares to be purchased by the Corporation are at the time held in escrow under
Article VII, the certificates for such shares shall be promptly delivered out of
escrow to the Corporation. The Corporation shall, concurrently with the receipt
of the stock certificates, pay to the Optionee's spouse (in cash or cash
equivalents) an amount equal to the fair market value specified for such shares
in the Purchase Notice.
If the Optionee's spouse does not agree with the fair market
value specified for the shares in the Purchase Notice, then the spouse shall
promptly notify the Corporation in writing of such disagreement and the fair
market value of such shares shall thereupon be determined by an appraiser of
recognized standing selected by the Corporation and the spouse. If they cannot
agree on an appraiser within twenty (20) days after the date of the Purchase
Notice, each shall select an appraiser of recognized standing, and the two
appraisers shall designate a third appraiser of recognized standing whose
appraisal shall be determinative of such value. The cost of the appraisal shall
be shared equally by the Corporation and the Optionee's spouse. The closing
shall then be held on the fifth business day following the completion of such
appraisal; provided, however, that if the appraised value is more than fifteen
percent (15%) greater than the fair market value specified for the shares in the
Purchase Notice, the Corporation shall have the right, exercisable prior to the
expiration of such five (5)-business-day period, to rescind the exercise of the
Special Purchase Right and thereby revoke its election to purchase the shares
awarded to the spouse.
8.4 LAPSE. The Special Purchase Right under this Article VIII
shall lapse and cease to have effect upon the earlier to occur of (i) the first
date on which the First Refusal Right under Article VI lapses or (ii) the
expiration of the thirty (30)-day exercise period specified in paragraph 8.3, to
the extent the Special Purchase Right is not timely exercised in accordance with
such paragraph.

fifty percent (50%) or more of the total combined voting power of all

Agreement or in the Plan shall confer upon the Optionee any right to continue in
the Service of the Corporation (or any parent or subsidiary corporation of the
Corporation employing or retaining Optionee) for any period of specific duration
or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Corporation
(or any parent or subsidiary corporation of the Corporation employing or

Article V, or the failure of the Corporation (or its assignees) in any instance

Purchase Right granted under Article VIII shall not constitute a waiver of any
other repurchase rights and/or rights of first refusal that may subsequently
arise under the provisions of this Agreement or any other agreement between the
Corporation and the Optionee or the Optionee's spouse. No waiver of any breach
or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other or

assignees) shall make available, at the time and place and in the amount and
form provided in this Agreement, the consideration for the Purchased Shares to

SPECIAL PROTECTIVE ELECTION PURSUANT TO SECTION 83(b) OF THE INTERNAL
REVENUE CODE WITH RESPECT TO PROPERTY ACQUIRED UPON EXERCISE OF AN
INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION
The property described in the above Section 83(b) election is comprised of
shares of common stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an incentive stock
option under Section 422 of the Code. Accordingly, it is the intent of the
Taxpayer to utilize this election to achieve the following tax results:
1. The purpose of this election is to have the alternative
minimum taxable income attributable to the purchased shares measured by the
amount by which the fair market value of such shares at the time of their
transfer to the Taxpayer exceeds the purchase price paid for the shares. In the
absence of this election, such alternative minimum taxable income would be
measured by the spread between the fair market value of the purchased shares and
the purchase price which exists on the various lapse dates in effect for the
forfeiture restric-tions applicable to such shares. The election is to be
effective to the full extent permitted under the Internal Revenue Code.
2. Section 421(a)(1) of the Code expressly excludes from income
any excess of the fair market value of the purchased shares over the amount paid
for such shares. Accordingly, this election is also intended to be effective in
the event there is a "disqualifying disposition" of the shares, within the
meaning of Section 421(b) of the Code, which would otherwise render the
provisions of Section 83(a) of the Code applicable at that time. Consequently,
the Taxpayer hereby elects to have the amount of disqualifying disposition
income measured by the excess of the fair market value of the purchased shares
on the date of transfer to the Taxpayer over the amount paid for such shares.
Since Section 421(a) presently applies to the shares which are the subject of
this Section 83(b) election, no taxable income is actually recognized for
regular tax purposes at this time, and no income taxes are payable, by the
Taxpayer as a result of this election.
This form should be filed with the Internal Revenue Service Center with which
taxpayer files his/her Federal income tax returns. The filing must be made
within 30 days after the execution date of the Stock Purchase Agreement.

DIGIRAD CORPORATION
STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
RECITALS
A. The Board of Directors of the Corporation has adopted the Digirad
Corporation 1997 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan (the "Plan") for the purpose
of attracting and retaining the services of persons who contribute to the growth
and financial success of the Corporation.
B. Optionee is a person who the Plan Administrator believes has and
will contribute to the growth and financial success of the Corporation and this
Agreement is executed pursuant to and is intended to carry out the purposes of
the Plan.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed as follows:
1. GRANT OF OPTION. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions
set forth in this Agreement, the Corporation hereby grants to Optionee, as of
the grant date (the "Grant Date") specified in the accompanying Notice of Grant
of Stock Option (the "Grant Notice"), a stock option to purchase up to that
number of shares of the Corporation's Common Stock (the "Option Shares") as is
specified in the Grant Notice. The Option Shares shall be purchasable from time
to time during the option term at the option price per share (the "Option
Price") specified in the Grant Notice. Capitalized terms used herein which are
not otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Plan.
2. OPTION TERM. This option shall have a maximum term of ten (10)
years measured from the Grant Date and shall expire at the close of business on
the expiration date (the "Expiration Date") specified in the Grant Notice,
unless sooner terminated in accordance with Paragraph 5, 6 or 17.
3. LIMITED TRANSFERABILITY. This option shall be neither
transferable nor assignable by Optionee other than by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution following Optionee's death and may be exercised, during
Optionee's lifetime, only by Optionee.
4. DATES OF EXERCISE. This option may not be exercised in whole
or in part at any time prior to the time the Plan is approved by the
Corporation's shareholders in accordance with Paragraph 17. Provided such
shareholder approval is obtained, this option shall thereupon become exercisable
for the Option Shares in one or more installments as is specified in the Grant
Notice. As the option becomes exercisable in one or more installments, the
installments shall accumulate and the option shall remain
exercisable for such installments until the Expiration Date or the sooner
termination of the option term under Paragraph 5 or Paragraph 6 of this
Agreement.
5. SPECIAL TERMINATION OF OPTION TERM. The option term specified
in Paragraph 2 shall terminate (and this option shall cease to be exercisable)
prior to the Expiration Date should any of the following provisions become
applicable:
(i) Except as otherwise provided in
subparagraph (ii) or (iii) below, should Optionee cease to remain in
Service while this option is outstanding, then the period for
exercising this option shall be reduced to a three (3)-month period
commencing with the date of such cessation of Service, but in no event
shall this option be exercisable at any time after the Expiration Date.
Upon the expiration of such three (3)-month period or (if earlier) upon
the Expiration Date, this option shall terminate and cease to be
outstanding.
(ii) Should Optionee die while this
option is outstanding, then the personal representative of the
Optionee's estate or the person or persons to whom the option is
transferred pursuant to the Optionee's will or in accordance with the
law of descent and distribution shall have the right to exercise this
option. Such right shall lapse and this option shall cease to be
exercisable upon the earlier of (A) the expiration of the twelve (12)
month period measured from the date of Optionee's death or (B) the
Expiration Date. Upon the expiration of such twelve (12) month period
or (if earlier) upon the Expiration Date, this option shall terminate
and cease to be outstanding.
(iii) Should Optionee become permanently
disabled and cease by reason thereof to remain in Service while this
option is outstanding, then the Optionee shall have a period of twelve
(12) months (commencing with the date of such cessation of Service)
during which to exercise this option, but in no event shall this option
be exercisable at any time after the Expiration Date. Optionee shall be
deemed to be permanently disabled if Optionee is unable to engage in
any substantial gainful activity for the Corporation or the parent or
subsidiary corporation retaining his/her services by reason of any
medically determinable physical or mental impairment, which can be
expected to result in death or which has lasted or can be expected to
last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months. Upon
the expiration of such limited period of exercisability or (if earlier)
upon the Expiration Date, this option shall terminate and cease to be
outstanding.
(iv) During the limited period of
exercisability applicable under subparagraph (i), (ii) or (iii) above,
this option may be exercised for any or all of the Option Shares for
which this option is, at the time of the Optionee's cessation of
Service, exercisable in accordance with the exercise schedule specified
in the Grant Notice and the provisions of Paragraph 6 of this
Agreement.
(v) For purposes of this Paragraph 5 and
for all other purposes under this Agreement:
-2-
A. The Optionee shall be deemed to remain in Service
for so long as the Optionee continues to render periodic services to the
Corporation or any parent or subsidiary corporation, whether as an Employee,
a non-employee member of the board of directors, or an independent contractor
or consultant.
B. The Optionee shall be deemed to be an Employee of
the Corporation and to continue in the Corporation's employ for so long as
the Optionee remains in the employ of the Corporation or one or more of its
parent or subsidiary corporations, subject to the control and direction of
the employer entity as to both the work to be performed and the manner and
method of performance.
C. A corporation shall be considered to be a
subsidiary corporation of the Corporation if it is a member of an unbroken
chain of corporations beginning with the Corporation, provided each such
corporation in the chain (other than the last corporation) owns, at the time
of determination, stock possessing 50% or more of the total combined voting
power of all classes of stock in one of the other corporations in such chain.
D. A corporation shall be considered to be a parent
corporation of the Corporation if it is a member of an unbroken chain ending
with the Corporation, provided each such corporation in the chain (other than
the Corporation) owns, at the time of determination, stock possessing 50% or
more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock in one of the
other corporations in such chain.
6. EFFECT OF CORPORATE TRANSACTION.
A. Optionee shall automatically vest in full with
respect to all of the Option Shares in the event of a Corporate Transaction
so that each such option shall, immediately prior to the effective date of
the Corporate Transaction, may be exercised for any or all of the Option
Shares as fully-vested shares of Common Stock, provided that the Option
Shares shall not automatically vest in full if and to the extent: (i) this
option is, in connection with the Corporate Transaction, either to be assumed
by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or to be replaced with a
comparable option to purchase shares of the capital stock of the successor
corporation (or parent thereof), or (ii) such option is to be replaced with a
cash incentive program of the successor corporation which preserves the
spread existing on the unvested option shares at the time of the Corporate
Transaction and provides for subsequent payout in accordance with the same
vesting schedule applicable to those option shares. The determination of
option comparability under clause (i) above shall be made by the Plan
Administrator, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.
B. To the extent not previously exercised, this
Option shall terminate and cease to be exercisable upon the consummation of a
Corporate Transaction unless it is expressly assumed by the successor
corporation or parent thereof.
C. Option Shares available under any options which
are assumed or replaced in the Corporate Transaction and do not otherwise
accelerate at that time, shall automatically vest in full in the event the
Optionee's Service should subsequently
-3-
terminated by reason of an Involuntary Termination within twenty-four (24)
months following the effective date of such Corporate Transaction. Any
options so accelerated shall remain exercisable for fully-vested shares until
the earlier of (i) the expiration of the option term or (ii) the expiration
of the one (1)-year period measured from the effective date of the
Involuntary Termination.
D. This Agreement shall not in any way affect the
right of the Corporation to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise make
changes in its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate,
dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or
assets.
7. EFFECT OF CHANGE IN CONTROL
In the event of any Change in Control, Optionee shall
automatically vest in full with respect to all Option Shares so that each
such option shall, immediately prior to the effective date of the Change in
Control, be fully exercisable for any or all of Option Shares as fully-vested
shares of Common Stock.
8. ADJUSTMENT IN OPTION SHARES.
A. In the event any change is made to the Corporation's
outstanding Common Stock by reason of any stock split, stock dividend,
combination of shares, exchange of shares, or other change affecting the
outstanding Common Stock as a class without receipt of consideration, then
appropriate adjustments shall be made to (i) the total number of Option
Shares subject to this option, (ii) the number of Option Shares for which
this option is to be exercisable from and after each installment date
specified in the Grant Notice and (iii) the Option Price payable per share in
order to reflect such change and thereby preclude a dilution or enlargement
of benefits hereunder.
B. If this option is to be assumed in connection with a
Corporate Transaction described in Paragraph 6 or is otherwise to remain
outstanding, then this option shall be appropriately adjusted, immediately
after such Corporate Transaction, to apply and pertain to the number and
class of securities which would have been issuable to the Optionee in the
consummation of such Corporate Transaction had the option been exercised
immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction, and appropriate adjustments
shall also be made to the Option Price payable per share, provided the
aggregate Option Price payable hereunder shall remain the same.
9. PRIVILEGE OF STOCK OWNERSHIP. The holder of this option shall
not have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Option Shares
until such individual shall have exercised the option and paid the Option Price.
10. MANNER OF EXERCISING OPTION.
A. In order to exercise this option with respect to
all or any part of the Option Shares for which this option is at the time
exercisable, Optionee (or in the case of exercise after Optionee's death, the
Optionee's executor, administrator, heir or legatee, as the case may be) must
take the following actions:
-4-
(i) Execute and deliver to the
Secretary of the Corporation a stock purchase agreement (the "Purchase
Agreement") in substantially the form of Exhibit B to the Grant Notice.
(ii) Pay the aggregate Option
Price for the purchased shares in one or more forms approved under the
Plan.
(iii) Furnish to the Corporation
appropriate documentation that the person or persons exercising the
option, if other than Optionee, have the right to exercise this option.
B. For purposes of this Agreement, the Exercise Date
shall be the date on which the executed Purchase Agreement shall have been
delivered to the Corporation, and the fair market value of a share of Common
Stock on any relevant date shall be determined in accordance with
subparagraphs (i) through (iii) below:
(i) If the Common Stock is not
at the time listed or admitted to trading on any stock exchange but is
traded on the NASDAQ National Market System, the fair market value
shall be the closing selling price of one share of Common Stock on the
date in question, as such price is reported by the National Association
of Securities Dealers through its NASDAQ system or any successor
system. If there is no closing selling price for the Common Stock on
the date in question, then the closing selling price on the last
preceding date for which such quotation exists shall be determinative
of fair market value.
(ii) If the Common Stock is at
the time listed or admitted to trading on any stock exchange, then the
fair market value shall be the closing selling price per share of
Common Stock on the date in question on the stock exchange determined
by the Plan Administrator to be the primary market for the Common
Stock, as such price is officially quoted in the composite tape of
transactions on such exchange. If there is no reported sale of Common
Stock on such exchange on the date in question, then the fair market
value shall be the closing selling price on the exchange on the last
preceding date for which such quotation exists.
(iii) If the Common Stock at the
time is neither listed nor admitted to trading on any stock exchange
nor traded in the over-the-counter market, or if the Plan Administrator
determines that the value determined pursuant to subparagraphs (i) and
(ii) above does not accurately reflect the fair market value of the
Common Stock, then such fair market value shall be determined by the
Plan Administrator after taking into account such factors as the Plan
Administrator shall deem appropriate.
C. As soon after the Exercise Date as practical, the
Corporation shall mail or deliver to Optionee or to the other person or
persons exercising this option a certificate or certificates representing the
shares so purchased and paid for, with the appropriate legends affixed
thereto.
-5-
D. In no event may this option be exercised for any
fractional shares.
11. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND REGULATIONS.
A. The exercise of this option and the issuance of
Option Shares upon such exercise shall be subject to compliance by the
Corporation and the Optionee with all applicable requirements of law relating
thereto and with all applicable regulations of any stock exchange on which
shares of the Corporation's Common Stock may be listed at the time of such
exercise and issuance.
B. In connection with the exercise of this option,
Optionee shall execute and deliver to the Corporation such representations in
writing as may be requested by the Corporation in order for it to comply with
the applicable requirements of Federal and State securities laws.
12. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Except to the extent otherwise
provided in Paragraph 3 or 6, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to
the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, administrators, heirs,
legal representatives and assigns of Optionee and the successors and assigns of
the Corporation.
13. LIABILITY OF CORPORATION.
A. If the Option Shares covered by this Agreement
exceed, as of the Grant Date, the number of shares of Common Stock which may
without shareholder approval be issued under the Plan, then this option shall
be void with respect to such excess shares, unless shareholder approval of an
amendment sufficiently increasing the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable under the Plan is obtained in accordance with the provisions of
Article IV, Section 3, of the Plan.
B. The inability of the Corporation to obtain
approval from any regulatory body having authority deemed by the Corporation
to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Common Stock pursuant
to this option shall relieve the Corporation of any liability with respect to
the non-issuance or sale of the Common Stock as to which such approval shall
not have been obtained. The Corporation, however, shall use its best efforts
to obtain all such approvals.
14. NOTICES. Any notice required to be given or delivered to the
Corporation under the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and addressed
to the Corporation in care of the Corporate Secretary at its principal corporate
offices. Any notice required to be given or delivered to Optionee shall be in
writing and addressed to Optionee at the address indicated below Optionee's
signature line on the Grant Notice. All notices shall be deemed to have been
given or delivered upon personal delivery or upon deposit in the U.S. mail,
postage prepaid and properly addressed to the party to be notified.
15. LOANS. The Plan Administrator may, in its absolute discretion
and without any obligation to do so, assist the Optionee in the exercise of this
option by (i) authorizing the extension of a loan to the Optionee from the
Corporation or (ii) permitting
-6-
the Optionee to pay the option price for the purchased Common Stock in
installments over a period of years. The terms of any such loan or
installment method of payment (including the interest rate, the requirements
for collateral and the terms of repayment) shall be established by the Plan
Administrator in its sole discretion.
16. CONSTRUCTION. This Agreement and the option evidenced hereby
are made and granted pursuant to the Plan and are in all respects limited by and
subject to the express terms and provisions of the Plan. All decisions of the
Plan Administrator with respect to any question or issue arising under the Plan
or this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on all persons having an
interest in this option.
17. GOVERNING LAW. The interpretation, performance, and
enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of
Delaware without resort to that State's conflict-of-laws rules.
18. SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL. The grant of this option is subject to
approval of the Plan by the Corporation's shareholders within twelve (12) months
after the adoption of the Plan by the Board of Directors. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY
PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, THIS OPTION MAY NOT BE EXERCISED IN
WHOLE OR IN PART UNTIL SUCH SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL IS OBTAINED. In the event that
such shareholder approval is not obtained, then this option shall thereupon
terminate in its entirety and the Optionee shall have no further rights to
acquire any Option Shares hereunder.
19. ADDITIONAL TERMS APPLICABLE TO AN INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION. In
the event this option is designated an incentive stock option in the Grant
Notice, the following terms and conditions shall also apply to the grant:
A. This option shall cease to qualify for favorable
tax treatment as an incentive stock option under the Federal tax laws if (and
to the extent) this option is exercised for one or more Option Shares: (i)
more than three (3) months after the date the Optionee ceases to be an
Employee for any reason other than death or permanent disability (as defined
in Paragraph 5) or (ii) more than one (1) year after the date the Optionee
ceases to be an Employee by reason of permanent disability.
B. Should this option be designated as immediately
exercisable in the Grant Notice, then this option shall not become
exercisable in the calendar year in which granted if (and to the extent) the
aggregate fair market value (determined at the Grant Date) of the
Corporation's Common Stock for which this option would otherwise first become
exercisable in such calendar year would, when added to the aggregate fair
market value (determined as of the respective date or dates of grant) of the
Corporation's Common Stock for which this option or one or more other
incentive stock options granted to the Optionee prior to the Grant Date
(whether under the Plan or any other option plan of the Corporation or its
parent or subsidiary corporations) first become exercisable during the same
calendar year, exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in the
aggregate. To the extent the exercisability of this option is deferred by
reason of the foregoing limitation, the deferred portion will first become
exercisable in the first calendar year or years thereafter in which the One
Hundred Thousand Dollar ($100,000) limitation of this Paragraph 18.B would
not be contravened.
-7-
C. Should this option be designated as exercisable in
installments in the Grant Notice, then no installment under this option
(whether annual or monthly) shall qualify for favorable tax treatment as an
incentive stock option under the Federal tax laws if (and to the extent) the
aggregate fair market value (determined at the Grant Date) of the
Corporation's Common Stock for which such installment first becomes
exercisable hereunder will, when added to the aggregate fair market value
(determined as of the respective date or dates of grant) of the Corporation's
Common Stock for which one or more other incentive stock options granted to
the Optionee prior to the Grant Date (whether under the Plan or any other
option plan of the Corporation or any parent or subsidiary corporation) first
become exercisable during the same calendar year, exceed One Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($100,000) in the aggregate.
20. WITHHOLDING. Optionee hereby agrees to make appropriate
arrangements with the Corporation or parent or subsidiary corporation
employing Optionee for the satisfaction of all Federal, State or local income
tax withholding requirements and Federal social security employee tax
requirements applicable to the exercise of this option.

EXHIBIT C
INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT is made and entered into this ____ day of _______, 19__
between DIGIRAD CORPORATION., a Delaware corporation ("Corporation"), and
_____________________________ ("Director").
RECITALS:
A. Director, a member of the Board of Directors of Corporation,
performs a valuable service in such capacity for Corporation; and
B. The stockholders of Corporation have adopted Bylaws (the
"Bylaws") providing for the indemnification of the officers, directors,
agents and employees of Corporation to the maximum extent authorized by
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (the "Law");
and
C. The Bylaws and the Law, by their non-exclusive nature,
permit contracts between Corporation and the members of its Board of
Directors with respect to indemnification of such directors; and
D. In accordance with the authorization as provided by the
Law, Corporation may from time to time purchase and maintain a policy or
policies of Directors and Officers Liability Insurance ("D & O Insurance"),
covering certain liabilities which may be incurred by its directors and
officers in the performance of services as directors and officers of
Corporation; and
E. As a result of developments affecting the terms, scope and
availability of D & O Insurance there exists general uncertainty as to the
extent and overall desirability of protection afforded members of the Board
of Directors by such D & O Insurance, if any, and by statutory and bylaw
indemnification provisions; and
F. In order to induce Director to continue to serve as a
member of the Board of Directors of Corporation, Corporation has determined
and agreed to enter into this contract with Director;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of Director's continued service as
a director after the date hereof, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. INDEMNITY OF DIRECTOR. Corporation hereby agrees to hold
harmless and indemnify Director to the fullest extent authorized or permitted
by the provisions of the Law, as may be amended from time to time.
2. ADDITIONAL INDEMNITY. Subject only to the exclusions set
forth in Section 3 hereof, Corporation hereby further agrees to hold harmless
and indemnify Director:
(a) against any and all expenses (including attorneys' fees),
witness fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by Director in connection with any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative
or investigative (including an action by or in the right of Corporation) to
which Director is, was or at any time becomes a party, or is threatened to be
made a party, by reason of the fact that Director is, was or at any time
becomes a director, officer, employee or agent of Corporation, or is or was
serving or at any time serves at the request of Corporation as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise; and
(b) otherwise to the fullest extent as may be provided to
Director by Corporation under the non-exclusivity provisions of the Bylaws of
Corporation and the Law.
3. LIMITATIONS ON ADDITIONAL INDEMNITY. No indemnity pursuant
to Section 2 hereof shall be paid by Corporation:
(a) except to the extent the aggregate of losses to be
indemnified thereunder exceeds the sum of such losses for which the Director
is indemnified pursuant to Section 1 hereof or pursuant to any D & O
Insurance purchased and maintained by Corporation;
(b) in respect of remuneration paid to Director if it shall be
determined by a final judgment or other final adjudication that such
remuneration was in violation of law;
(c) on account of any action, suit or proceeding in which
judgment is rendered against Director for an accounting of profits made from
the purchase or sale by Director of securities of Corporation pursuant to the
provisions of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and
amendments thereto or similar provisions of any federal, state or local
statutory law;
(d) on account of Director's conduct which is finally adjudged
to have been knowingly fraudulent or deliberately dishonest, or to constitute
willful misconduct;
(e) on account of Director's conduct which is the subject of an
action, suit or proceeding described in Section 7(c)(ii) hereof;
(f) on account of or arising in response to any action, suit or
proceeding (other than an action, suit or proceeding referred to in Section
8(b) hereof) initiated by Director or any of Director's affiliates against
Corporation or any officer, director or stockholder of Corporation unless
such action, suit or proceeding was authorized in the specific case by action
of the Board of Directors of Corporation;
(g) on account of any action, suit or proceeding to the extent
that Director is a plaintiff, a counter-complainant or a cross-complainant
therein (other than an action, suit or proceeding permitted by Section 3(f)
hereof); or
(h) if a final decision by a Court having jurisdiction in the
matter shall determine that such indemnification is not lawful (and, in this
respect, both Corporation and Director have been
advised that the Securities and Exchange Commission believes that
indemnification for liabilities arising under the federal securities laws is
against public policy and is, therefore, unenforceable and that claims for
indemnification should be submitted to appropriate courts for adjudication).
4. CONTRIBUTION. If the indemnification provided in Sections 1
and 2 is unavailable and may not be paid to Director for any reason other
than those set forth in paragraphs (b) through (g) of Section 3, then in
respect of any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding in
which Corporation is or is alleged to be jointly liable with Director (or
would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), Corporation shall
contribute to the amount of expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments,
fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred and
paid or payable by Director in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
(i) the relative benefits received by Corporation on the one hand and
Director on the other hand from the transaction from which such action, suit
or proceeding arose, and (ii) the relative fault of Corporation on the one
hand and of Director on the other hand in connection with the events which
resulted in such expenses, judgments, fines or settlement amounts, as well as
any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of
Corporation on the one hand and of Director on the other shall be determined
by reference to, among other things, the parties' relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent the circumstances
resulting in such expenses, judgments, fines or settlement amounts.
Corporation agrees that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 4 were determined by pro rata allocation or any
other method of allocation which does not take account of the foregoing
equitable considerations.
5. CONTINUATION OF OBLIGATIONS. All agreements and obligations
of Corporation contained herein shall continue during the period Director is
a director, officer, employee or agent of Corporation (or is or was serving
at the request of Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan
or other enterprise) and shall continue thereafter so long as Director shall
be subject to any possible claim or threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal or investigative, by reason of
the fact that Director was serving Corporation or such other entity in any
capacity referred to herein.
6. NOTIFICATION AND DEFENSE OF CLAIM. Not later than thirty
(30) days after receipt by Director of notice of the commencement of any
action, suit or proceeding, Director will, if a claim in respect thereof is
to be made against Corporation under this Agreement, notify Corporation of
the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify Corporation will not
relieve it from any liability which it may have to Director otherwise than
under this Agreement. With respect to any such action, suit or proceeding as
to which Director notifies Corporation of the commencement thereof:
(a) Corporation will be entitled to participate therein at its
own expense;
(b) except as otherwise provided below, to the extent that it
may wish, Corporation jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly
notified will be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to Director. After notice from Corporation to
Director of its election to assume the defense thereof, Corporation will not
be liable to Director
under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by
Director in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs
of investigation or as otherwise provided below. Director shall have the
right to employ his own counsel in such action, suit or proceeding but the
fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from Corporation of
its assumption of the defense thereof shall be at the expense of Director
unless (i) the employment of counsel by Director has been authorized by
Corporation, (ii) Director shall have reasonably concluded that there may be
a conflict of interest between Corporation and Director in the conduct of the
defense of such action or (iii) Corporation shall not in fact have employed
counsel to assume the defense of such action, in each of which cases the fees
and expenses of Director's separate counsel shall be at the expense of
Corporation. Corporation shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any
action, suit or proceeding brought by or on behalf of Corporation or as to
which Director shall have made the conclusion provided for in (ii) above; and
(c) Corporation shall not be liable to indemnify Director under
this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of any action or claim
effected without its written consent. Corporation shall be permitted to
settle any action except that it shall not settle any action or claim in any
manner which would impose any penalty, out-of-pocket liability, or limitation
on Director without Director's written consent. Neither Corporation nor
Director will unreasonably withhold its or his consent to any proposed
settlement.
7. ADVANCEMENT AND REPAYMENT OF EXPENSES.
(a) In the event that Director employs his own counsel pursuant
to Section 6(b)(i) through (iii) above, Corporation shall advance to
Director, prior to any final disposition of any threatened or pending action,
suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative,
any and all reasonable expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred
in investigating or defending any such action, suit or proceeding within ten
(10) days after receiving copies of invoices presented to Director for such
expenses.
(b) Director agrees that Director will reimburse Corporation
for all reasonable expenses paid by Corporation in defending any civil or
criminal action, suit or proceeding against Director in the event and only to
the extent it shall be ultimately determined by a final judicial decision
(from which there is no right of appeal) that Director is not entitled, under
the provisions of the Law, the Bylaws, this Agreement or otherwise, to be
indemnified by Corporation for such expenses.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Corporation shall not be
required to advance such expenses to Director if Director (i) commences any
action, suit or proceeding as a plaintiff unless such advance is specifically
approved by a majority of the Board of Directors or (ii) is a party to an
action, suit or proceeding brought by Corporation and approved by a majority
of the Board which alleges willful misappropriation of corporate assets by
Director, disclosure of confidential information in violation of Director's
fiduciary or contractual obligations to Corporation, or any other willful and
deliberate breach in bad faith of Director's duty to Corporation or its
shareholders.
8. Enforcement.
(a) Corporation expressly confirms and agrees that it has
entered into this Agreement and assumed the obligations imposed on
Corporation hereby in order to induce Director to continue as a director of
Corporation, and acknowledges that Director is relying upon this Agreement in
continuing in such capacity.
(b) In the event Director is required to bring any action to
enforce rights or to collect moneys due under this Agreement and is
successful in such action, the Corporation shall reimburse Director for all
Director's reasonable fees and expenses (including attorneys' fees) in
bringing and pursuing such action.
9. SUBROGATION. In the event of payment under this agreement,
Corporation shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the
rights of recovery of Director, who shall execute all documents required and
shall do all acts that may be necessary to secure such rights and to enable
Corporation effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights.
10. NON-EXCLUSIVITY OF RIGHTS. The rights conferred on Director
by this Agreement shall not be exclusive of any other right which Director
may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of Corporation's
Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or
directors, or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to
action in another capacity while holding office.
11. SURVIVAL OF RIGHTS. The rights conferred on Director by
this Agreement shall continue after Director has ceased to be a director,
officer, employee or other agent of Corporation or such other entity.
12. SEPARABILITY. Each of the provisions of this Agreement is a
separate and distinct agreement and independent of the others, so that if any
or all of the provisions hereof shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable
to any extent for any reason, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof or the
obligation of the Corporation to indemnify the Director to the full extent
provided by the Bylaws or the Law, and the affected provision shall be
construed and enforced so as to effectuate the parties' intent to the maximum
extent possible.
13. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be interpreted and
enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware.
14. BINDING EFFECT. This Agreement shall be binding upon Director
and upon Corporation, its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit
of Director, his heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives and
assigns and to the benefit of Corporation, its successors and assigns.
15. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. No amendment, modification,
termination or cancellation of this Agreement shall be effective unless set
forth in a writing signed by both parties hereto.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement on
and as of the day and year first above written.

FORM OF OPINION
August 23, 1002 [LETTERHEAD]
To the Investors Listed on the
Schedule of Investors to the
Digirad Corporation Series F Stock Purchase Agreement
dated August 23, 2001
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel for Digirad Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), in connection with the issuance and sale of shares of its Series
F Preferred Stock pursuant to the Digirad Corporation Series F Stock Purchase
Agreement dated August 23, 2001 (the "Stock Purchase Agreement") among the
Company and you. This opinion letter is being rendered to you pursuant to
Section 4.4 of the Stock Purchase Agreement in connection with the Closing of
the sale of the Series F Preferred Stock. Capitalized terms not otherwise
defined in this opinion letter have the meanings given them in the Stock
Purchase Agreement.
In connection with the opinions expressed herein, we have made such
examination of matters of law and of fact as we considered appropriate or
advisable for purposes hereof. As to matters of fact material to the opinions
expressed herein, we have relied upon the representations and warranties as
to factual matters contained in and made by the Company pursuant to the Stock
Purchase Agreement and upon certificates and statements of government
officials and of officers of the Company. With respect to our opinion in
paragraph 3 regarding issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company,
such opinion is based solely on our review of a certificate of the Company
and of the Company's stock records and resolutions of the Company's Board of
Directors relating to such issuances. We have also examined originals or
copies of such corporate documents or records of the Company as we have
considered appropriate for the opinions expressed herein. We have assumed for
the purposes of this opinion letter the genuineness of all signatures, the
legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of the documents
submitted to us as originals, the conformity to the original documents of all
documents submitted to us as certified, facsimile or photostatic copies, and
the authenticity of the originals of such copies.
In rendering this opinion letter we have also assumed: (A) that the Stock
Purchase Agreement and the Amended and Restated Investors' Rights Agreement
(the "Investors' Rights Agreement") (collectively, the "Transaction
Agreements") have been duly and validly executed and delivered by you or on
your behalf, that each of you has the power to enter into and perform all
your obligations thereunder and has taken any and all necessary corporate,
partnership or other relevant action to authorize the Transaction Agreements,
and that the Transaction Agreements constitute valid, legal, binding and
enforceable obligations upon you; (B) that the representations and warranties
made in the Stock Purchase Agreement by you are true and
August 23, 2001
Page 2
correct; (C) that any wire transfers, drafts or checks tendered by you will
be honored; (D) if you are a corporation or other entity, that you have filed
any required state franchise, income or similar tax returns and have paid any
required state franchise, income or similar taxes; and (E) if you are a small
business investment company subject to the Small Business Investment Act of
1958, as amended, that you have complied with the provisions of such Act and
the regulations promulgated thereunder (the "SBIA Laws").
As used in this opinion letter, the expression "we are not aware" or the
phrase "to our knowledge," or any similar expression or phrase with respect
to our knowledge of matters of fact, means as to matters of fact that, based
on the actual knowledge of individual attorneys within the firm principally
responsible for handling current matters for the Company (and not including
any constructive or imputed notice of any information), and after an
examination of documents referred to herein and after inquiries of certain
officers of the Company, no facts have been disclosed to us that have caused
us to conclude that the opinions expressed are factually incorrect; but
beyond that we have made no factual investigation for the purposes of
rendering this opinion letter. Specifically, but without limitation, we have
not searched the dockets of any courts and we have made no inquiries of
securities holders or employees of the Company, other than such officers.
Nothing in this opinion or any inference from the fact that we represent the
Company shall be construed to imply that we are opining or representing to
you that the Transaction Agreements do not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or do not omit to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading.
This opinion letter relates solely to the laws of the State of California,
the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the federal law of
the United States and we express no opinion with respect to the effect or
application of any other laws. Special rulings of authorities administering
such laws or opinions of other counsel have not been sought or obtained.
Based upon our examination of and reliance upon the foregoing and subject to
the limitations, exceptions, qualifications and assumptions set forth below,
we are of the opinion that as of the date hereof:
1. The Company is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and the Company
has the requisite corporate power and authority to own its properties and to
conduct its business as, to our knowledge, it is presently conducted. The
Company is qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in the states of
California and Florida.
2. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to
execute, deliver and perform the Transaction Agreements. Each of the
Transaction Agreements has been duly and validly authorized by the Company,
duly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a legal, valid and
binding obligation of the Company, enforceable by you against the Company in
accordance with its terms.

4. Other than in connection with any securities laws (with respect
to which we direct you to paragraph 6 below), the Company's execution and
delivery of, and its performance and compliance as of the date hereof with
the terms of, the Transaction Agreements (including the issuance of the
Series F Preferred Stock and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion
thereof), do not violate any provision of any federal, Delaware corporate or
California law, rule or regulation applicable to the Company or any provision
of the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws
and do not conflict with or constitute a default under the provisions of any
judgment, writ, decree or order specifically identified in the Schedule of
Exceptions or the material provisions of any of the material agreements
specifically identified in the Schedule of Exceptions.
5. Other than in connection with any securities laws (with respect
to which we direct you to paragraph 6 below), all consents, approvals,
permits, orders or authorizations of, and all qualifications by and
registrations with, any federal or Delaware corporate or California state
governmental authority on the part of the Company required in connection with
the execution and delivery of the Stock Purchase Agreement and consummation
at the Closing of the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase
Agreement have been obtained, and are effective, and we are not aware of any
proceedings, or written threat of any proceedings, that question the validity
thereof.
6. On the assumption that the representations of the Investors in
the Stock Purchase Agreement are correct, the offer and sale of the Series F
Preferred Stock to the Investors pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase
Agreement are exempt from the registration requirement of Section 5 of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and from the qualification requirement of
the California Corporate Securities Law of 1968, as amended, and, under such
securities laws as they presently exist, the issuance of Common Stock to you
upon conversion of
August 23, 2001
Page 5
the Series F Preferred Stock would also be exempt from such registration and
qualification requirements.
7. We are not aware that there is any action, proceeding or
governmental investigation pending, or threatened in writing, against the
Company which questions the validity of the Transaction Agreements or the
right of the Company to enter into the Transaction Agreements nor are we
aware of, except as disclosed in Section 2.12 of the Schedule of Exceptions,
any litigation pending, or threatened in writing, against the Company by
reason of the proposed activities of the Company, the past employment
relationships of its officers, directors or employees, or negotiations by the
Company with possible investors in the Company or its business.
Our opinions expressed above are specifically subject to the following
limitations, exceptions, qualifications and assumptions:
A. The legality, validity, binding nature and enforceability of the
Company's obligations under the Transaction Agreements may be subject to or
limited by (1) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement,
moratorium, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws affecting the rights
of creditors generally; (2) general principles of equity (whether relief is
sought in a proceeding at law or in equity), including, without limitation,
concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, and the
discretion of any court of competent jurisdiction in awarding specific
performance or injunctive relief and other equitable remedies; and (3)
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) principles requiring
the consideration of the impracticability or impossibility of performance of
the Company's obligations at the time of the attempted enforcement of such
obligations, and (b) the effect of California court decisions and statutes
which indicate that provisions of the Transaction Agreements which permit any
of you to take action or make determinations may be subject to a requirement
that such action be taken or such determinations be made on a reasonable
basis in good faith or that it be shown that such action is reasonably
necessary for your protection.
B. We express no opinion as to the Company's or this transaction's
compliance or noncompliance with applicable federal or state antifraud or
antitrust statutes, laws, rules and regulations or the Exon-Florio Amendment.
C. We express no opinion concerning the past, present or future fair
market value of any securities.
D. We express no opinion as to the enforceability under certain
circumstances of any provisions indemnifying a party against, or requiring
contributions toward, that party's liability for its own wrongful or
negligent acts, or where indemnification or contribution is contrary to
public policy or prohibited by law. In this regard, we advise you that in the
opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, provisions regarding
indemnification of directors, officers
August 23, 2001
Page 6
and controlling persons of an issuer against liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, are against public policy and are
therefore unenforceable.
E. We express no opinion as to the enforceability under certain
circumstances of any provisions prohibiting waivers of any terms of the
Transaction Agreements other than in writing, or prohibiting oral
modifications thereof or modification by course of dealing. In addition, our
opinions are subject to the effect of judicial decisions which may permit the
introduction of extrinsic evidence to interpret the terms of written
contracts.
F. We express no opinion as to the effect of Section 1670.5 of the
California Civil Code or any other California law, federal law or equitable
principle which provides that a court may refuse to enforce, or may limit the
application of, a contract or any clause thereof which the court finds to
have been unconscionable at the time it was made or contrary to public policy.
G. We express no opinion as to the effect of Sections 1203 and
1102(3) of the California Uniform Commercial Code or any other California
law, federal law or equitable principle, providing for an obligation of good
faith in the performance or enforcement of contracts and prohibiting
disclaimer of such obligation.
H. Our opinions in paragraphs 4 and 5 above are limited to laws and
regulations normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated in
the Transaction Agreements and do not extend to licenses, permits and
approvals necessary for the conduct of the Company's business. In addition
and without limiting the previous sentence, we express no opinion herein with
respect to the effect of any land use, safety, hazardous material,
environmental or similar law, or any local or regional law. Further, we
express no opinion as to the effect of or compliance with any state or
federal laws or regulations applicable to the transactions contemplated by
the Transaction Agreements because of the nature of the business of any party
thereto other than the Company. Also, we express no opinion with respect to
any patent, copyright, trademark or other intellectual property matter, or as
to the statutes, regulations, treaties or common laws of any nation, state or
jurisdiction with regard thereto.
I. In connection with our opinion in paragraph 4 relating to the
agreements listed on the Schedule of Exceptions, we have not reviewed, and
express no opinion on, (i) financial covenants or similar provisions
requiring financial calculations or determinations to ascertain whether there
is any such conflict or (ii) provisions relating to the occurrence of a
"material adverse event" or words of similar import. In addition, our
opinions are subject to the effect of judicial decisions which may permit the
introduction of extrinsic evidence to interpret the terms of written
contracts. Moreover, to the extent that any of the agreements listed on the
Schedule of Exceptions are governed by the laws of any jurisdiction other
than the State of California our opinion relating to those agreements is
based solely upon the plain meaning of their language without regard to
interpretation or construction that might be indicated by the laws governing
those agreements.
August 23, 2001
Page 7
J. We express no opinion as to your compliance with any federal or
state law relating to your legal or regulatory status or the nature of your
business.
K. We express no opinion as to the compliance of the Company or the
sale of the Series F Preferred Stock to the Investors with the provisions of
the SBIA Laws, except to the extent that such compliance relates to the sale
of Series F Preferred Stock to Investors which are expressly identified in
the Stock Purchase Agreement as being small business investment companies.
L. We express no opinion as to the effect on our opinion in
paragraph 6 above of any subsequent public offering of securities of the
Company.
M. We express no opinion as to the effect of subsequent issuances of
securities of the Company, to the extent that further issuances which may be
integrated with the Closing may include purchasers that do not meet the
definition of "accredited investors" under Rule 501 of Regulation D and
equivalent definitions under state securities or "blue sky" laws and to the
extent that notwithstanding its reservation of shares the Company may issue
so many shares of Common Stock that there are not enough remaining authorized
but unissued shares of Common Stock for the conversion of the Series F
Preferred Stock (or may issue securities which by antidilution adjustment so
reduce the Conversion Price (as such term is defined in the Company's Amended
and Restated Certificate of Incorporation) of the Series F Preferred Stock
and/or other Company derivative securities that the outstanding shares of the
Series F Preferred Stock become convertible for more shares of Common Stock
than remain authorized but unissued).
N. We express no opinion as to:
(1) The effect on the redemption and liquidation provisions
of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of applicable state
law, federal law or equitable principles restricting in certain circumstances
distributions by a corporation to its shareholders, relating to dissenters'
rights or relating to involuntary dissolution;
(2) The enforceability under certain circumstances of
provisions to the effect that rights or remedies may be exercised without
notice, or that failure to exercise or delay in exercising rights or remedies
will not operate as a waiver of any such right or remedy;
(3) Any provision providing for the exclusive jurisdiction
of a particular court or purporting to waive rights to trial by jury, service
of process or objections to the laying of venue or to forum on the basis of
forum NON CONVENIENS, in connection with any litigation arising out of or
pertaining to the Transaction Agreements;
August 23, 2001
Page 8
(4) Section 2.4 of the Stock Purchase Agreement and Section
5.2 of the Investors' Rights Agreement to the extent that each purports to
exclude conflict of law principles under California law;
(5) The effect of any California or Delaware law, federal
law or equitable principles which limit the amount of attorneys' fees that
can be recovered under certain circumstances.
This opinion letter is rendered as of the date first written above solely for
your benefit in connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement and may not be
delivered to, quoted or relied upon by any person other than you, or for any
other purpose, without our prior written consent. Our opinion is expressly
limited to the matters set forth above and we render no opinion, whether by
implication or otherwise, as to any other matters relating to the Company. We
assume no obligation to advise you of facts, circumstances, events or
developments which hereafter may be brought to our attention and which may
alter, affect or modify the opinions expressed herein.
Very truly yours,

AMENDED AND RESTATED INVESTORS' RIGHTS AGREEMENT
August 23, 2001
INVESTORS' RIGHTS AGREEMENT
This AMENDED AND RESTATED INVESTORS' RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this
"Agreement") is made as of the 23rd day of August, 2001, by and between
Digirad Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), holders of a
majority of the shares held by the founders of the Company identified on
SCHEDULE A attached hereto under the heading "Founders" (the "Founders"),
holders of a majority of the Preferred Stock of the Company identified on
SCHEDULE A attached hereto under the heading "Existing Investors" (the
"Existing Investors") and each of the purchasers of the Series F Preferred
Stock of the Company identified on SCHEDULE A attached hereto under the
heading "New Investors" and Silicon Valley Bank (collectively, the "New
Investors"). The Existing Investors and the New Investors are collectively
referred to herein as, individually, an "Investor" and collectively, the
"Investors."
RECITALS
A. The Company has previously sold and issued shares of its capital
stock to the Founders and to the Existing Investors, pursuant to which the
Founders and the Existing Investors have become parties to that certain
Investors' Rights Agreement dated November 10, 2000, as amended (the
"Investors' Rights Agreement");
B. The Company desires to sell and issue shares of its Series F
Preferred Stock to the New Investors pursuant to that certain Series F
Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement of even date herewith (the "Purchase
Agreement"); and
C. As an inducement to the New Investors to purchase shares of its
Series F Preferred Stock, the Company, the Founders and the Existing
Investors all desire to completely amend and restate the Investors' Rights
Agreement pursuant to Section 5.7 with respect to the matters set forth
therein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual
promises and covenants contained herein it is hereby agreed:
1. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.
1.1 BOARD EXPENSES. The Company shall reimburse the Board
members for all reasonable out-of-pocket travel and expenses incurred by such
directors in attending the meetings of the Board and committees of the Board
of which any such director is a member.
1.2 RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER. Subject to the terms and
conditions specified in this Section 1.2, the Company hereby grants to
Investors, and to Jack F. Butler, Sr. and Clinton L. Lingren (and their
respective transferees) (collectively, the "Founders" and each an "Offeree"),
a right of first offer with respect to future sales by the Company of its
Shares (as hereinafter defined). Investors shall be entitled to apportion the
right of the first offer hereby granted among themselves and their partners
and affiliates in such proportions as they deem appropriate.
Each time the Company proposes to offer any shares of, or
securities convertible into or exercisable for, any class of its capital
stock (the "Shares"), the Company shall first make an offering of such Shares
to each Offeree in accordance with the following provisions:
(a) The Company shall deliver a notice by certified mail
("Notice") to the Offeree stating (i) its bona fide intention to offer or
issue such Shares, (ii) the number of such Shares to be offered, and (iii)
the price, if any, for which it proposes to offer such Shares.
(b) Within 20 calendar days after receipt of the Notice,
the Offeree may elect to purchase or obtain, at the price and on the terms
specified in the Notice, up to that portion of such Shares which equals the
proportion that the number of shares of Common Stock issued and held, or
issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock then held, by such Offeree
bears to the total number of shares of outstanding Common Stock and Common
Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock then outstanding. The
Company shall promptly in writing, inform each Offeree which purchases all
the shares available to it (a "Fully Exercising Offeree") of any other
Offeree's failure to do likewise. During the 10-day period commencing after
receipt of such information, each Fully Exercising Offeree shall be entitled
to obtain that portion of the shares subject to such right of first refusal
and not subscribed for by the Offerees which is equal to the proportion that
the number of shares of Common Stock issued and held , or issuable upon
conversion of the Preferred Stock then held, by such Fully Exercising Offeree
bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and held, or
issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock then held, by all Fully
Exercising Offerees who wish to purchase some of the unsubscribed shares.
(c) If all such Shares referred to in the Notice are not
elected to be obtained as provided in subsection 1.2(b) hereof, the Company
may, during the 60-day period following the expiration of the period provided
in subsection 1.2(b) hereof, offer the remaining unsubscribed Shares to any
person or persons at a price not less than that, and upon terms no more
favorable to the offeree than those, specified in the Notice. If the Company
does not enter into an agreement for the sale of the Shares within such
period, or if such agreement is not consummated within 60 days of the
execution thereof, the right provided hereunder shall be deemed to be revived
and such Shares shall not be offered unless first reoffered to the Offerees
in accordance herewith.
(d) The right of first offer granted in this Section 1.2
shall not be applicable (i) to the issuance or sale of shares of Common
Stock, or options granted to employees, directors, consultants or advisors of
the Company under stock option and restricted stock purchase agreements
approved by the Board of Directors commencing as of May 1994 (each, an
"Option, and collectively, "Options") or warrants therefor, to employees,
directors, consultants or advisors of the Company, provided each such person
executes an agreement relating to such issuance or sale in substantially the
form as approved by the Company's Board of Directors, (ii) to the issuance
and sale of the Company's securities to a corporation, partnership,
educational institution or other entity in connection with a research and
development partnership or licensing or other collaborative arrangement
between the Company and such institution or entity, (iii) to or after
consummation of a bona fide, firmly underwritten public offering of shares of
the Company's Common Stock registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"), which results in gross proceeds of at least
$15,000,000 at a price per share of
-2-
at least $7.50 (adjusted for any subsequent stock splits, stock dividends or
other recapitalizations), (iv) to the issuance of securities pursuant to the
conversion or exercise of convertible or exercisable securities, (v) to the
issuance of securities in connection with a bona fide business acquisition of
or by the Company, whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets, sale or
exchange of stock or otherwise, and (vi) to the issuance of securities in
connection with credit agreements with equipment lessors or commercial
lenders.
(e) Any term of this Section 1.2 may be amended and the
observance of any term of this Section 1.2 may be waived (either generally or
in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only
with the written consent of (i) the Company, (ii) the holders of a majority
of the shares held by the Founders, and (iii) the Investors holding of a
majority of the Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Series
A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series
D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock,
voting as a single class. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with
this paragraph shall be binding upon each holder of any securities of the
Company at the time outstanding (including securities into which such
securities are convertible) with rights under this Section 1.2, each future
holder of all such securities, and the Company.
1.3 BOARD OBSERVATION RIGHTS. A person beneficially holding
or controlling 300,000 (adjusted for stock splits, reverse stock splits, and
similar changes in capitalization) or more shares of the Company's Series A
Preferred Stock who is not a member of the Company's Board of Directors shall
receive from the Company, with such limitations as are provided herein,
notice of all meetings for the Board of Directors, and such stockholder shall
receive any materials distributed for such meeting and may attend such
meetings; provided, however, that the Company may require as a condition
precedent that such stockholder in requesting to attend any meeting of the
Board of Directors shall agree to hold it in confidence and trust all
information received during or in connection with such meeting and require
that such stockholder sign a confidentiality agreement with the Company and,
provided further, that the Company reserves the right not to provide
information and to exclude such stockholder from any meeting or portion
thereof if attendance at such meeting by such stockholder or dissemination of
any information at such meeting to such stockholder would, in the good faith
judgment of the Board of Directors, result in a conflict of interest. If such
stockholder in his or her good faith judgment believes that an item to be
discussed by the Board of Directors would result in any conflict of interest,
such stockholder shall promptly bring such conflict to the attention of the
stockholder on the Board. In no event shall any such stockholder have the
right to vote at any such meeting or shall any provision of this paragraph
waive any obligation of confidentiality to the Company owed by such
stockholder.
2. REGISTRATION RIGHTS.
The Company covenants and agrees as follows:
2.1 DEFINITIONS. For purposes of this Section 2:
(a) The terms "register," "registered," and "registration"
refer to a registration effected by preparing and filing a registration
statement or similar document in compliance with
-3-
the Securities Act, and the declaration or ordering of effectiveness of such
registration statement or document;
(b) The term "Registrable Securities" means (i) the Common
Stock issuable or issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock,
Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock,
Series E Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock and (ii) any Common
Stock of the Company issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise
of any warrant, right or other security which is issued as) a dividend or
other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for or in replacement of,
such Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred
Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred
Stock or Common Stock, excluding in all cases, however, any Registrable
Securities sold by a person in a transaction in which such person's
registration rights are not assigned;
(c) The number of shares of "Registrable Securities then
outstanding" shall be determined by the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding which are, and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
pursuant to then exercisable or convertible securities which are exercisable
or convertible into, Registrable Securities;
(d) The term "Holder" means any person owning or having the
right to acquire Registrable Securities or any assignee thereof in accordance
with Section 2.13 hereof; and
(e) The term "Form S-3" means such form under the
Securities Act as in effect on the date hereof or any registration form under
the Securities Act subsequently adopted by the SEC in lieu of Form S-3 which
permits inclusion or incorporation of substantial information by reference to
other documents filed by the Company with the SEC.
2.2 REQUEST FOR REGISTRATION.
(a) If the Company shall receive at any time after the
earlier of (i) January 1, 2002 or (ii) one year after the effective date of
the first registration statement for a public offering of securities of the
Company (other than a registration statement relating either to the sale of
securities to employees of the Company pursuant to a stock option, stock
purchase or similar plan or a SEC Rule 145 transaction), a written request
from the Holders of at least 30% of the Registrable Securities then
outstanding (or at least 25% of the Registrable Securities then outstanding
if such request is made following any Closing of the offering referred to in
subsection (ii) of this Section 2.2(a)) that the Company file a registration
statement under the Securities Act covering the registration of at least 20%
of the Registrable Securities then outstanding (or a lesser percent if the
anticipated aggregate offering price, net of underwriting discounts and
commissions, would exceed $15,000,000), then the Company shall, within 10
days of the receipt thereof, give written notice of such request to all
Holders and shall, subject to the limitations of subsection 2.2(b), file as
soon as practicable, and in any event within 60 days of the receipt of such
request, a registration statement under the Securities Act covering all
Registrable Securities which the Holders request to be registered within 20
days of the mailing of such notice by the Company in accordance with Section
5.5.
-4-
(b) If the Holders initiating the registration request
hereunder (the "Initiating Holders") intend to distribute the Registrable
Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall
so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this
Section 2.2 and the Company shall include such information in the written
notice referred to in subsection 2.2(a). In such event, the right of any
Holder to include such Holder's Registrable Securities in such registration
shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such underwriting
and the inclusion of such Holder's Registrable Securities in the underwriting
(unless otherwise mutually agreed by a majority in interest of the Initiating
Holders and such Holder) to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing
to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with
the Company as provided in subsection 2.4(e)) enter into an underwriting
agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for
such underwriting by the Company and consented to by a majority in interest
of the Holders proposing to distribute securities through such underwriting
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Section 2.2, if the underwriter advises the Company and the
Initiating Holders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation of
the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Company shall so advise all
Holders of Registrable Securities which would otherwise be underwritten
pursuant hereto, and the number of shares of Registrable Securities that may
be included in the underwriting shall be allocated among all Holders thereof,
including the Initiating Holders, in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to
the number of Registrable Securities of the Company owned by each Holder
including securities in the underwriting.
(c) The Company is obligated to effect only two such
registrations pursuant to this Section 2.2; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be obligated to effect a registration pursuant to this
Section 2.2 if within the 12 months immediately preceding a request hereunder
the Company has effected a demand registration under this Section 2.2.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall
furnish to Holders requesting a registration statement pursuant to this
Section 2.2 a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that
in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company it would
be seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such
registration statement to be filed and it is therefore essential to defer the
filing of such registration statement, the Company shall have the right to
defer such filing for a period of not more than 90 days after receipt of the
request of the Initiating Holders; provided, however, that the Company may
not utilize this right more than twice in the aggregate and not more than
once in any 12-month period.
2.3 COMPANY REGISTRATION. If (but without any obligation to
do so) the Company proposes to register (including for this purpose a
registration effected by the Company for stockholders other than the Holders)
any of its stock or other securities under the Securities Act in connection
with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than a
registration relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a
Company stock plan, or a registration on any form which does not include
substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a
registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Securities), the
Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder written notice of such
registration. Upon the written request of each Holder given within 20 days
after mailing of such
-5-
notice by the Company in accordance with Section 5.5, the Company shall,
subject to the provisions of Section 2.8, cause to be registered under the
Securities Act all of the Registrable Securities that each such Holder has
requested to be registered. No Holder shall have any rights under this
Section 2.3 unless it is the owner of at least 200,000 shares of the
Company's Common Stock either directly or through ownership of Preferred
Stock, as adjusted to reflect any stock splits, stock dividends or other
recapitalizations.
2.4 OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. Whenever required under
this Section 2 to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the
Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:
(a) Prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC") a registration statement with respect to such
Registrable Securities and use its reasonable efforts to cause such
registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the
Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder,
keep such registration statement effective for up to 120 days.
(b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in
connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply
with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of
all securities covered by such registration statement.
(c) Furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a
prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the
requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as they may
reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable
Securities owned by them.
(d) Use its reasonable efforts to register and qualify the
securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities
or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by
the Holders, provided that the Company shall not be required in connection
therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a
general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions.
(e) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter
into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual
and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each
Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform
its obligations under such an agreement.
(f) Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by
such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any
event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration
statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact
or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the
circumstances then existing.
(g) Furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting
registration of Registrable
-6-
Securities pursuant to this Section 2, on the date that such Registrable
Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale in connection with a
registration pursuant to this Section 2, if such securities are being sold
through underwriters, or, if such securities are not being sold through
underwriters, on the date that the registration statement with respect to
such securities becomes effective, (i) an opinion, dated such date, of the
counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in
form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten
public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders
requesting registration of Registrable Securities and (ii) a letter dated
such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company,
in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public
accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to
the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of
Registrable Securities.
2.5 FURNISH INFORMATION.
(a) It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of
the Company to take any action pursuant to this Section 2 that the selling
Holders shall furnish to the Company such information regarding themselves,
the Registrable Securities held by them, and the intended method of
disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect the
registration of the Registrable Securities.
(b) The Company shall have no obligation with respect to
any registration requested pursuant to Section 2.2 or Section 2.12 if, due to
the operation of subsection 2.5(a), the number of shares or the anticipated
aggregate offering price of the Registrable Securities to be included in the
registration does not equal or exceed the number of shares or the anticipated
aggregate offering price required to originally trigger the Company's
obligation to initiate such registration as specified in subsection 2.2(a) or
subsection 2.12(b)(ii), whichever is applicable.
2.6 EXPENSES OF DEMAND REGISTRATION. The Company shall bear
and pay all expenses other than underwriting discounts and commissions
incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant
to Section 2.2, including (without limitation) all registration, filing and
qualification fees, printers' and accounting fees, fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company and the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel
for the selling Holders selected by them; provided, however, that the Company
shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding
begun pursuant to Section 2.2 if the registration request is subsequently
withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable
Securities to be registered (in which case all participating Holders shall
bear such expenses), unless the Holders of a majority of the Registrable
Securities agree to forfeit their right to one demand registration pursuant
to Section 2.2; provided further, however, that if at the time of such
withdrawal, the Holders have learned of a material adverse change in the
condition, business or prospects of the Company from that known to the
Holders at the time of their request, then the Holders shall not be required
to pay any of such expenses and shall retain their rights pursuant to Section
2.2.
2.7 EXPENSES OF COMPANY REGISTRATION. The Company shall
bear and pay all expenses incurred in connection with any registration,
filing or qualification of Registrable
-7-
Securities with respect to the registrations pursuant to Section 2.3 for each
Holder (which right may be assigned as provided in Section 2.13), including
(without limitation) all registration, filing and qualification fees,
printers' and accounting fees relating or apportionable thereto and the
reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel for the selling Holders selected
by them, but excluding underwriting discounts and commissions relating to
Registrable Securities.
2.8 UNDERWRITING REQUIREMENTS. In connection with any
offering involving an underwriting of shares being issued by the Company, the
Company shall not be required under Section 2.3 to include any of the
Holders' securities in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the
underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected
by it, and then only in such quantity as will not, in the opinion of the
underwriters, jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. If the
total number of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by
stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the number of securities
sold other than by the Company that the underwriters reasonably believe
compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be
required to include in the offering only that number of such securities,
including Registrable Securities, which the underwriters believe will not
jeopardize the success of the offering (the securities so included to be
apportioned pro rata among the selling stockholders according to the total
number of securities entitled to be included therein owned by each selling
stockholder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by
such selling stockholders) but in no event shall the number of securities of
the selling Holders included in the offering be reduced below 30% of the
total number of securities included in such offering, unless such offering is
the initial public offering of the Company's securities in which case the
selling stockholders may be excluded if the underwriters make the
determination described above and no other stockholder's securities are
included.
2.9 DELAY OF REGISTRATION. No Holder shall have any right
to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such
registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect
to the interpretation or implementation of this Section 2.
2.10 INDEMNIFICATION. In the event any Registrable
Securities are included in a registration statement under this Section 2:
(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will
indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the officers and directors of each
Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder
and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the
meaning of the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as
such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof)
arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or
violations (each, a "Violation"): (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement,
including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or
any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission
to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary
to make the
-8-
statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged
violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state
securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities
Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law; and the Company will
reimburse each such Holder, officer or director, underwriter or controlling
person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement
contained in this subsection 2.10(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in
settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such
settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any
such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent
that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use
in connection with such registration by any such Holder, officer, director,
underwriter or controlling person.
(b) To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder
will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each
of its directors, each of its officers who have signed the registration
statement, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning
of the Securities Act, any underwriter and any other Holder selling
securities in such registration statement or any of its directors or officers
or any person who controls such Holder, against any losses, claims, damages
or liabilities (joint or several) to which the Company or any such director,
officer, controlling person, or underwriter or controlling person, or other
such Holder or director, officer or controlling person may become subject,
under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the
extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon
and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly
for use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will
reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or
any such director, officer, controlling person, underwriter or controlling
person, other Holder, officer, director, or controlling person in connection
with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or
action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this
subsection 2.10(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such
loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected
without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld; provided, that, in no event shall any indemnity under this
subsection 2.10(b) exceed the net proceeds (after deducting any discounts or
commissions received by an underwriter in connection with such registration)
from the offering received by such Holder.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under
this Section 2.10 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any
governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect
thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 2.10,
deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement
thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in,
and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other
indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with
counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an
indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the
fees and
-9-
expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such
indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be
inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such
indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such
proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party
within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not
relieve such indemnifying party of its obligations under this Agreement,
except to the extent, but only to the extent, that the indemnifying party's
ability to defend against such action is actually and materially impaired as
a result of the failure to give such notice. The omission to so deliver
written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying
party of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise
than under this Section 2.10.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in Sections
2.10(a), (b) and (c) is unavailable to an indemnified party under such
Sections (other than by reason of exceptions provided in those Sections) in
respect of any claims referred to in such Sections, then each applicable
indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a
result of such claims in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Holders of
Registrable Securities on the other in connection with the statements or
omissions which resulted in such claims as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result
of the claims referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other
fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with
investigating or defending any action or claim. The relative fault of the
Company on the one hand and of the Holders of Registrable Securities on the
other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the
applicable misstatement or alleged misstatement relates to information
supplied by the Company or by the applicable Holder of Registrable Securities
and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and
opportunity to correct or prevent such misstatement or alleged misstatement.
The Company and each Holder of Registrable Securities agree that it would not
be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.10(d) were
determined by PRO RATA allocation or by any other method of allocation which
does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.10(d), no Holder shall be
required to contribute any amount in excess of the net proceeds (after
deducting any discounts or commissions received by an underwriter in
connection with such registration) from the offering received by such Holder.
No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution
hereunder from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation.
(e) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this
Section 2.10 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable
Securities in a registration statement under this Section 2, and otherwise.
2.11 REPORTS UNDER SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934. With a
view to making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated
under the Securities Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may
at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public
without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form S-3, the Company
agrees to:
-10-
(a) make and keep public information available, as those
terms are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144, at all times after 90 days
after the effective date of the first registration statement filed by the
Company for the offering of its securities to the general public;
(b) take such action, including the voluntary registration
of its Common Stock under section 12 of the Exchange Act, as is necessary to
enable the Holders to utilize Form S-3 for the sale of their Registrable
Securities, such action to be taken as soon as practicable after the end of
the fiscal year in which the first registration statement filed by the
Company for the offering of its securities to the general public is declared
effective;
(c) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and
other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act; and
(d) furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any
Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the
Company that it has compiled with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144
(at any time after 90 days after the effective date of the first registration
statement filed by the Company), the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at
any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), or that
it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form
S-3 (at any time after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent
annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and
documents so filed by the Company and (iii) such other information as may be
reasonably requested in availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the
SEC which permits the selling of any such securities without registration or
pursuant to such form.
2.12 FORM S-3 REGISTRATION. In case the Company shall
receive from any Holder or Holders a written request or requests that the
Company effect a registration on Form S-3 and any related qualification or
compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned
by such Holder or Holders, the Company will:
(a) promptly give written notice of the proposed
registration, and any related qualification or compliance, to all other
Holders; and
(b) as soon as practicable, effect such registration and
all such qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would
permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such
Holder's or Holders' Registrable Securities as are specified in such request,
together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other
Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written
request given within 15 days after receipt of such written notice from the
Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect
any such registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to this Section
2.12: (i) if Form S-3 is not available for such offering by the Holders; (ii)
if the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the
Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell
Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate
price to the public (net of any underwriters' discounts or commissions) of
less than $1,000,000; (iii) if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a
certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good
faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company it would be seriously
detrimental to the Company and stockholders for such Form S-3
-11-
Registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall
have the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3 Registration Statement for
a period of not more than 90 days after receipt of the request of the Holder
or Holders under this Section 2.12; provided, however, that the Company shall
not utilize this right more than once in any 12-month period; (iv) if the
Company has, within the 12-month period preceding the date of such request,
already effected two registrations on Form S-3 for the Holders pursuant to
this Section 2.12 and other similar provisions granting rights to
registration on Form S-3; (v) if in any particular jurisdiction in which the
Company would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general
consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification
or compliance; or (vi) if the Holders hold in the aggregate less than 1% of
the outstanding shares of the Company's capital stock.
(c) Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a
registration statement covering the Registrable Securities and other
securities so requested to be registered as soon as practicable after receipt
of the request or requests of the Holders. All expenses incurred in
connection with a registration requested pursuant to Section 2.12, including
(without limitation) all registration, filing, qualification, printer's and
accounting fees and the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the
selling Holder or Holders and counsel for the Company (with the payment of
fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company dependent upon the
Company's including securities in such registration), shall be borne pro rata
by the Holder or Holders participating in the Form S-3 Registration;
provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay all such expenses,
including (without limitation) all registration, filing and qualification
fees, printer's and accounting fees and the fees and disbursements of one
counsel for the selling Holders, but excluding underwriting discounts and
commission relative to the Registrable Securities, with respect to the first
three such registration pursuant to this Section 2.12. Registrations effected
pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall not be counted as demands for
registration effected pursuant to Section 2.2.
2.13 ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights to cause
the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2 may
be assigned by a Holder to (i) a transferee or assignee of at least 100,000
of such Holder's shares of Registrable Securities, (ii) another Holder, (iii)
in the case of a partnership to a partner or retired partner of such
partnership who after such assignment holds at least 20,000 shares of
Registrable Securities or (iv) an affiliated entity controlling, controlled
by, or under common control with, such Holder; provided, in each case, the
Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with
written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the
securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned;
and provided, further, that such assignment shall be effective only if
immediately following such transfer the further disposition of such
securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities
Act.
2.14 LIMITATIONS ON SUBSEQUENT REGISTRATION RIGHTS. From
and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the
prior written consent of the Holders of a majority of the outstanding
Registrable Securities, enter into any agreement with any holder or
prospective holder of any securities of the Company which would allow such
holder or prospective holder (a) to include such securities in any
registration filed under Sections 2.2 or 2.3 hereof, unless under the terms
of such agreement, such holder or prospective holder may include
-12-
such securities in any such registration only to the extent that the
inclusion of such holder's securities will not reduce the amount of the
Registrable Securities of the Holders which is included or (b) to make a
demand registration which could result in such registration statement being
declared effective prior to the earlier of either of the dates set forth in
subsection 2.2(a) or within 120 days of the effective date of any
registration effected pursuant to Section 2.2.
2.15 MARKET STAND-OFF AGREEMENT. Each Holder hereby agrees
that it shall not, to the extent requested by the Company and an underwriter
of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company, sell or otherwise
transfer or dispose (other than to those donees who agree to be similarly
bound) of any Registrable Securities during a reasonable and customary period
of time, as agreed to by the Company and the underwriters, not to exceed 180
days, following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company
filed under the Securities Act (the "Lock-Up Period"); provided, however,
that:
(a) such agreement shall be applicable only to the first
such registration statement of the Company which covers shares (or
securities) to be sold on its behalf to the public in an underwritten
offering; and
(b) all officers and directors of the Company, all holders
of at least one percent (1%) of the issued and outstanding securities of the
Company and all other persons with registration rights (whether or not
pursuant to this Agreement) enter into similar agreements.
In order to enforce the foregoing covenant, the Company may
impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Registrable Securities
of each Holder (and the shares or securities of every other person subject to
the foregoing restriction) until the end of such reasonable and customary
period.
Neither the Company nor the underwriters in a public
offering shall reduce or eliminate the Lock-Up Period for any security holder
of the Company without similarly reducing or eliminating the Lock-Up Period
for each Holder.
2.16 TERMINATION OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The Company's
obligations pursuant to this Section 2 shall terminate as to any Holder of
Registrable Securities on the earlier of (i) when the Holder can sell all of
such Holder's shares pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act during any
90-day period or (ii) on the seventh anniversary of any Closing of the
Company's sale of its Common Stock in a bona fide, firm commitment
underwritten public offering registered under the Securities Act which
results in gross offering proceeds of at least $15,000,000, at a public
offering price of not less than $7.50 per share (adjusted to reflect stock
dividends, stock splits or recapitalizations); provided, however, in no event
shall such obligations terminate earlier than the first anniversary of any
Closing of the offering described in subsection (ii) of this Section 2.17.

use its best efforts to cause that all employees of and consultants to the
Company having access to the Company's proprietary and confidential

the foregoing, the Company shall adopt and implement a compliance plan
adequate to assure such compliance. The compliance plan shall include all
material elements of an effective program to prevent and detect violations of

3.7 INSURANCE. The Company and each of the Subsidiaries
will maintain in full force and effect with insurers insurance in such
amounts and against such losses and risks as is sufficient and reasonable
given the nature of their respective businesses.
4. SALES BY INVESTORS.
4.1 RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. The parties agree that before
there can be a valid sale, assignment or transfer by any Investor of 20,000
shares or more of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred
Stock or Series F Preferred Stock within any six (6) month period (other than
(i) a transfer not involving a change in beneficial ownership, (ii)
transactions involving the distribution of such shares by any of the
Investors to any of their partners, or stockholders, (iii) pursuant to a
transfer without consideration to the spouse or lineal descendants of the
transferring Investor, or a trust for the benefit of the transferring
Investor, his spouse and/or lineal descendants or (iv) a transfer to an
affiliated entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with,
the Investor), the Investor intending to transfer (the "Selling Investor")
shall first give notice in writing (the "Notice of Sale") to the Company of
his, her or its intention to sell such shares (the "Noticed Shares"). Such
Notice of Sale shall specify the number of Notice Shares to be sold, the name
of the proposed purchaser (the "Proposed Investor Purchaser"), the price per
Noticed Share and the terms and conditions upon which the Selling Investor
intends to make such sale. Promptly upon the Company's receipt of such Notice
of Sale, the Secretary of the Company shall mail or deliver a copy of such
Notice of Sale to all Investors owning an aggregate of Common Stock
Equivalents (as hereafter defined) representing at least 100,000 shares of
Common Stock (as adjusted for stock splits, contributions and stock
dividends) (such stockholders being hereinafter referred to as the "Optionee
Investors"). Within thirty (30) days thereafter, any such Optionee Investor
or Investor (the "Offering Investor") desiring to acquire any part or all of
the Noticed Shares shall deliver by mail or otherwise to the Secretary of the
Company a written offer or offers, to purchase a specified number of such
Noticed Shares at the price and upon the terms and conditions stated in such
Notice of Sale, accompanied by the stated consideration therefor with
authorization to transfer such consideration against delivery of such shares,
which offers, subject to Section 4.2, shall be accepted by the Selling
Investor. As used herein, "Common Stock Equivalents" shall mean outstanding
shares of Common Stock and shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
-16-
outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock or Series
F Preferred Stock.
If the total number of shares specified in said offers to
the Secretary exceeds the number of the Noticed Shares, each Offering
Investor shall be entitled to purchase that number of shares which is equal
to the lesser of:
(i) the number of shares specified in said offer or,
(ii) such proportion of the Notice Shares as the number of
shares (on an as-if-converted basis) that such Offering Investor holds bears
to the total number of shares held by all the Offering Investors (on an
as-if-converted basis).
If all of the Noticed Shares are not disposed of under the
apportionment pursuant to this Section 4.1, those shares remaining undisposed
of shall be apportioned among those Offering Investors whose number of Shares
specified in their respective offers under Section 4.1 exceed the number of
shares allocated to them, which excess shares shall be apportioned on the
basis of the apportionment formula set forth in this Section, and said
apportionment process shall be repeated with respect to any excess shares
after each apportionment until all Noticed Shares are allocated.
4.2 FAILURE TO EXERCISE OPTIONS AND MAKE OFFERS FOR ALL
SHARES. If options are not exercised and/or offers made in the aggregate for
all of the Noticed Shares within the thirty (30) day period referred to
herein, the Selling Investors shall not be obligated to sell the Noticed
Shares or any fraction thereof to the Optionee Investors, and may dispose of
all of the Noticed Shares to the Proposed Purchaser named in said Notice of
Sale, provided, however, that the Selling Investor shall not sell less than
all of said Noticed Shares nor shall it sell such shares at a lower price or
on terms or conditions more favorable to the Proposed Purchaser than those
specified in said Notice of Sale without first offering the new price, terms
and conditions to Optionee Investors as hereinabove set forth. If the Selling
Investor does not so sell the Noticed Shares to such Proposed Purchaser
within one hundred twenty (120) days after it first gave notice to the
Company pursuant to Section 4.1, it shall again first offer such shares to
the Optionee Investors prior to selling them to any Proposed Purchaser.
4.3 NONMONETARY CONSIDERATION.
(a) If part or all of the purchase consideration specified
in a Notice of Sale is other than money or purchaser's promissory note or
other evidence of indebtedness, such Notice of Sale shall also specify the
fair market value in cash of such other consideration. The Optionee Investors
shall have the right to exercise their respective options to purchase the
Noticed Shares by delivery of a written offer or offers specifying a cash
purchase price equal to the total of the monetary consideration and the fair
market value of the nonmonetary consideration specified in the Notice of Sale.
(b) If any Optionee Investor objects to the amount
specified in the Notice of Sale as the fair market value of any nonmonetary
consideration, such Optionee Investor shall,
-17-
within twenty (20) days of the receipt of the Notice of Sale, submit a
written request to the Company that the matter be submitted to the Board of
Directors for determination. Pending such determination, or a determination
pursuant to subsection (c) below, the time for exercising options to purchase
shares shall be stayed as of the date of such notice. Promptly upon the
Company's receipt of such notice from the objecting Optionee Investor, the
Secretary of the Company shall notice and call a special meeting of the Board
of Directors, to be held within fifteen (15) days of the Company's receipt of
notice from the objecting Optionee Investor, for the purpose of determining
in good faith the fair market value of the nonmonetary consideration
specified in the Notice of Sale. Any decision of the Board of Directors made
in good faith shall be final and binding upon all parties. The Board of
Directors shall promptly give written notice of its decision and the
resulting calculation of the purchase price to the parties.
(c) If the Board of Directors fails or refuses to make a
determination of the fair market value of such nonmonetary consideration within
such fifteen (15) day period from the date of the Company's receipt of notice
from the objecting Optionee Investor, the objecting Optionee Investor and the
Selling Investor shall select and agree upon a single appraiser. If the parties
are unable to agree upon a single appraiser within ten (10) days after the end
of the fifteen (15) day period specified above, then either party may apply to
the San Diego Superior Court (pursuant to a petition to compel arbitration) for
the appointment of a single appraiser in accordance with Section 1280 ET SEQ. of
the California Code of Civil Procedure. Such appraiser shall thereupon promptly
determine the fair market value of the nonmonetary consideration specified in
the Notice of Sale, and shall promptly give written notice of such appraiser's
decision and the resulting calculation of the purchase price to the parties and
to the Company.
(d) All expenses of the determination by the Board of
Directors or the appraisal and proceedings to appoint an appraiser, as the case
may be, shall be borne one-half by the Optionee Investors who exercise their
options to purchase the Noticed Shares (who shall share such expenses among
themselves in proportion to the number of shares each elects to purchase) and
one-half by the Selling Investor, unless the Optionee Investors thereafter fail
to exercise their respective options, in which case the objecting Optionee
Investor shall bear all such expenses.
4.4 TERMINATION. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rights of
first refusal set forth in this Section 4 shall terminate upon any Closing of
the Company's first firmly underwritten public offering of its Common Stock
registered under the Securities Act of 1933.
5. MISCELLANEOUS.

herein, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of

holder of any Registrable Securities then outstanding, each future holder of all
such Registrable Securities, and the Company.
5.8 SEVERABILITY. If one or more provisions of this Agreement
are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be
excluded from this Agreement and the balance of the Agreement shall be
interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in
accordance with its terms.

This AMENDED AND RESTATED CO-SALE AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made
as of this 10th day of November, 2000 by and among Digirad Corporation, a

"Founders" on SCHEDULE A attached hereto (each a "Founder", and collectively the
"Founders"), holders of a majority of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B
Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E
Preferred Stock listed under the heading "Existing Investors" on SCHEDULE A
attached hereto (the "Existing Investors") and each of the purchasers of the
Series E Preferred Stock of the Company listed under the heading "New Investors"
on SCHEDULE A attached hereto (the "New Investors").
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Founders and the Existing Investors have, from time to
time, purchased shares of the Company's Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock,
Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock
and/or Series E Preferred Stock and have become parties to that certain Co-Sale
Agreement dated May 13, 1994, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 to the
Co-Sale Agreement dated December 8, 1995, that certain Amendment No. 2 to the
Co-Sale Agreement dated April 23, 1996, that certain Amendment No. 3 to the
Co-Sale Agreement dated September 6, 1996, that certain Amendment No. 4 to the
Co-Sale Agreement dated September 30, 1996, that certain Amendment No. 5 to the
Co-Sale Agreement dated August 8, 1997, that certain Amendment No. 6 to the
Co-Sale Agreement dated March 15, 2000 and that certain Addendum to Amendment
No. 6 to the Co-Sale Agreement dated April 6, 2000 (collectively, the "Co-Sale
Agreement").
WHEREAS, the New Investors are purchasing shares of the Company's
Series E Preferred Stock pursuant to a Fourth Additional Series E Preferred
Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of even date herewith (the "Purchase
Agreement").
WHEREAS, as an inducement to the New Investors to purchase shares of
the Series E Preferred Stock, the Company, the Founders, the Existing Investors
and the New Investors all desire to completely amend and restate the Co-Sale
Agreement pursuant to Section 7.2 with respect to the matters set forth therein.
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein,
the parties agree as follows:
1. DEFINITIONS.
a. "Stock" shall mean outstanding shares of the
Company's Common Stock now owned by the Founders.
b. "Preferred Stock" shall mean outstanding shares of
the Company's Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C
Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock.
c. "Common Stock" shall mean the Company's Common Stock
and shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Company's
outstanding Preferred Stock.
d. "Stockholders" shall mean the Existing Investors and
the New Investors, collectively.
2. SALES BY FOUNDERS.
a. If any Founder proposes to sell or transfer any
shares of Stock except as otherwise permitted herein, then such Founder shall
promptly give written notice (the "Notice") to the Company and the Stockholders
at least 20 days prior to the closing of such sale or transfer. The Notice shall
describe in reasonable detail the proposed sale or transfer including, without
limitation, the number of shares of Stock to be sold or transferred, the nature
of such sale or transfer, the consideration to be paid, and the name and address
of each prospective purchaser or transferee. In the event that the sale or
transfer is being made pursuant to the provisions of paragraph 3(a) or 3(b)
hereof, the Notice shall state under which paragraph the sale or transfer is
being made.
b. Each Stockholder shall have the right, exercisable
upon written notice to such Founder within 15 days after receipt of the Notice,
to participate in such sale of Stock on the same terms and conditions. To the
extent one or more of the Stockholders exercise such right of participation in
accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below, the number of shares
of Stock that the Founder may sell in the transaction shall be correspondingly
reduced. A Stockholder with one or more affiliated funds may apportion the
number of shares it is entitled to sell pursuant to paragraph (c) below among
such funds in any manner the Stockholder may choose.
c. Each Stockholder may sell all or any part of that
number of shares of Stock equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the
aggregate number of shares of Stock covered by the Notice by (ii) a fraction the
numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such
Stockholder at the time of the sale or transfer and the denominator of which is
the total number of shares of Common Stock owned by the Founder and all of the
Stockholders at the time of the sale or transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
in the event of any purchase of shares of Stock by the Company (or its
assignees) pursuant to any right of first refusal or by the Stockholder under
paragraph (g) below, no Stockholder shall have any co-sale rights under this
Section 2 with respect to any shares of Stock so purchased.
d. Each Stockholder electing to participate (each a
"Participant," and collectively, the "Participants") shall effect its
participation in the sale by promptly delivering to the Founder for transfer to
the prospective purchaser one or more certificates, properly endorsed for
transfer, which represent:
2
(i) the type and number of shares of Common
Stock which such Participant elects to sell; or
(ii) that number of shares of Preferred Stock
which is at such time convertible into the number of shares of Common Stock
which such Participant elects to sell; provided, however, that if the
prospective purchaser objects to the delivery of shares of Preferred Stock in
lieu of Common Stock, such Participant shall convert such Preferred Stock into
shares of Common Stock and deliver such shares of Common Stock as provided in
subparagraph 2(d)(i) above. The Company agrees to make any such conversion
concurrent with the actual transfer of such shares to the purchaser.
e. The stock certificate or certificates that the
Participant delivers to the Founder pursuant to paragraph 2(d) shall be
transferred to the prospective purchaser in consummation of the sale of the
Stock pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in the Notice, and the
Founder shall concurrently therewith remit to such Participant that portion of
the sale proceeds to which such Participant is entitled by reason of its
participation in such sale. To the extent that any prospective purchaser or
purchasers prohibits such assignment or otherwise refuses to purchase shares or
other securities from a Participant exercising its rights of co-sale hereunder,
the Founder shall not sell to such prospective purchaser or purchasers any Stock
unless and until, simultaneously with such sale, the Founder shall purchase such
shares or other securities from such Participant.
f. The exercise or non-exercise of the rights of the
Stockholders hereunder to participate in one or more sales of Stock made by the
Founder shall not adversely affect their rights to participate in subsequent
sales of Stock subject to paragraph 2(a).
g. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the
holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock held by the
Stockholders so elect, the Stockholders shall have the right, exercisable upon
written notice to the Founders within 15 days after receipt of the Notice, to
purchase, within 30 days of receipt of the Notice, all (but not less than all)
of the shares of Stock specified in the Notice, excluding any shares purchased
or designated for purchase by the Company (or its assignees) pursuant to any
Company right of first refusal; provided, however, in the event the Company (or
its assignees) has any right of first refusal with respect to such shares, the
time periods specified in this sentence shall extend from the later of the date
of receipt by the Stockholders of the Notice and the date of receipt by the
Stockholders of notice from the Company (or its assignee) as to its decision to
exercise its right of first refusal with respect to such shares. Each
Stockholder participating in such purchase shall purchase the number of shares
equal to the aggregate number of shares of Stock specified in the Notice,
excluding any shares purchased or designated for purchase by the Company (or its
assignees) pursuant to any Company right of first refusal, multiplied by a
fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock owned by
such Stockholder at the time of the sale or transfer and the denominator of
which is the total number of shares of Common Stock owned at such time by all
Stockholders participating in such purchase. Subject to the restrictions
contained herein, the closing for any such purchase shall be held on a date set
by the Company and a majority of the Stockholders participating in such
purchase. The Company shall give the participating Stockholders and each Founder
notice of the closing date, at which time the portion to be purchased by each
participating Stockholder shall be determined.

3. EXEMPT TRANSFERS.
a. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the co-sale rights of
the Stockholders shall not apply to (i) any pledge of Stock made pursuant to a
bona fide loan transaction that creates a mere security interest, (ii) any
transfer to the ancestors, descendants or spouse or to trusts for the benefit of
such persons or a Founder; or (iii) any bona fide gift; provided that (A) the
transferring Founder shall inform the Stockholders of such pledge, transfer or
gift prior to effecting it and (B) the pledgee, transferee or donee shall
furnish the Stockholders with a written agreement to be bound by and comply with
all provisions of Section 2. Such transferred Stock shall remain "Stock"
hereunder, and such pledgee, transferee or donee shall be treated as a "Founder"
for purposes of this Agreement.
b. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of
Section 2 shall not apply to the sale of any Stock (i) to the public pursuant to
a registration statement filed with, and declared effective by, the Securities
and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act") or (ii) to the Company, or (iii) if prior to such sale, the
Founder held less than 5% of the Company's outstanding shares.
4. PROHIBITED TRANSFERS.
a. In the event a Founder should sell any Stock in
contravention of the co-sale rights of the Stockholders under this agreement (a
"Prohibited Transfer"), the Stockholders, in addition to such other remedies as
may be available at law, in equity or hereunder, shall have the put option
provided below, and the Founder shall be bound by the applicable provisions of
such option.
b. In the event of a Prohibited Transfer, each
Stockholder shall have the right to sell to the Founder the type and number of
shares of Stock equal to the number of shares each Stockholder would have been
entitled to transfer to the purchaser had the Prohibited Transfer under Section
2(c) hereof been effected pursuant to and in compliance with the terms hereof.
Such sale shall be made on the following terms and conditions:
(i) The price per share at which the shares are
to be sold to the Founder shall be equal to the price per share paid by the
purchaser to the Founder in the Prohibited Transfer. The Founder shall also
reimburse each Stockholder for any and all fees and expenses, including legal
fees and expenses incurred pursuant to the exercise or the attempted exercise of
the Stockholder's rights under Section 2.
(ii) Within 90 days after the later of the dates
on which the Stockholder (A) received notice of the Prohibited Transfer or (B)
otherwise become aware of the Prohibited Transfer, each Stockholder shall, if
exercising the option created hereby, deliver to the Founder the certificate or
certificates representing shares to be sold, each certificate to be properly
endorsed for transfer.
(iii) The Founder shall, upon receipt of the
certificate or certificates for the shares to be sold by a Stockholder, pursuant
to this subparagraph 4(b), pay the aggregate purchase price therefor and the
amount of reimbursable fees and expenses, as specified in subparagraph 4(b)(i),
in cash or by other means acceptable to the Stockholder.
4
(iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any attempt
by a Founder to transfer Stock in violation of Section 2 hereof shall be void
and the Company agrees it will not effect such a transfer nor will it treat any
alleged transferee as the holder of such shares without the written consent of a
majority in interest of the Stockholders.
5. ASSIGNMENT OF COMPANY'S RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. In the event
the Company does not exercise its right of first refusal provided for in any
stockholder agreement entered into between the Company and a Founder, the
Company shall assign such right to the Stockholders. In the event the holders of
a majority of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock so elect, the
Stockholders may exercise such right, within the time period specified in such
Stockholder Agreement, to purchase all (but not less than all) of the shares
subject to the Company's right of first refusal and specified in the notice to
the Company by the Founder as provided for in such Stockholder Agreement (the
"Offered Shares"). In that event, each Stockholder shall purchase the number of
shares of Stock specified in the notice to the Company equal to the number of
Offered Shares multiplied by the fraction set forth in Section 2(g) hereof.
6. LEGEND.
a. Each certificate representing shares of Stock now or
hereafter owned by the Founders or issued to any person in connection with a
transfer pursuant to Section 3(a) hereof shall be endorsed with the following
legend:
"THE SALE, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES
REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS
OF A CERTAIN AMENDED AND RESTATED CO-SALE AGREEMENT BY AND BETWEEN THE
STOCKHOLDER, THE CORPORATION AND CERTAIN HOLDERS OF STOCK OF THE
CORPORATION AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME. COPIES OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY
BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE SECRETARY OF THE CORPORATION."
b. Each Founder agrees that the Company may instruct its
transfer agent to impose transfer restrictions on the shares represented by
certificates bearing the legend referred to in Section 6(a) above to enforce the
provisions of this Agreement and the Company agrees to promptly do so. The
legend shall be removed upon termination of this Agreement.

principles of conflicts of laws.
7.2 AMENDMENT. Any provision may be amended and the

more than fifty percent (50%) in interest of the Common Stock held by the
Stockholders and their assignees, pursuant to Section 7.3 hereof, and (iii) as
to each Founder, such Founder, provided that any Stockholder may waive any of
its rights hereunder without obtaining the consent of any other Stockholder. Any

shares of Common Stock or (iii) to an affiliated entity controlling, controlled
by, or under common control with, a Stockholder.
7.4 TERM. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier
of (i) the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to
an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, covering the offer and sale of the Company's Common Stock at an
aggregate offering price of not less than $15,000,000 and at a public offering
price of not less than $7.50 per share (as adjusted to reflect subsequent stock
dividends, stock splits or recapitalizations) and (ii) the closing of the
Company's sale of all or substantially all of its assets or the acquisition of
the Company by another entity by means of merger or consolidation resulting in
the exchange of the outstanding shares of the Company's capital stock for

entity or its subsidiary.
7.5 OWNERSHIP. Each Founder represents and warrants that
he is the sole legal and beneficial owner of the shares of stock subject to this

provisions of this Agreement should, for any reason, be held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Agreement, and
this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provision had never been contained herein.
7.8 ATTORNEYS' FEES. In the event that any dispute among
the parties to this Agreement should result in litigation, the prevailing party
in such dispute shall be entitled to recover from the losing party all fees,

investors. Such new investors shall become party to this Agreement by executing
counterpart signature pages and no further signature shall be required by the
Company, the Founders, the Existing Investors or the New Investors. Such
investors shall be deemed to be "New Investors" and "Stockholders" under this
Agreement for all purposes hereunder.

AMENDED AND RESTATED
SERIES E VOTING AGREEMENT
This AMENDED AND RESTATED SERIES E VOTING AGREEMENT (this "Agreement")
is made as of this 10th day of November 2000 by and among Digirad Corporation, a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), holders of a majority of the Series E
Preferred Stock of the Company identified on SCHEDULE A attached hereto under
the heading "Existing Investors" (the "Existing Investors") and each of the
purchasers of the Series E Preferred Stock of the Company identified on SCHEDULE
A attached hereto under the heading "New Investors" (the "New Investors"). The
Existing Investors and the New Investors are collectively referred to herein as,
individually, an "Investor" and, collectively, the "Investors."
RECITALS
A. The Company has previously sold and issued shares of its Series E
Preferred Stock to the Existing Investors, pursuant to which the Existing
Investors have become parties to that certain Series E Voting Agreement dated
June 23, 1998, as amended by that certain Amendment Number One to the Series E
Voting Agreement dated March 15, 2000 and that certain Addendum to Amendment
Number One to the Series E Voting Agreement dated April 6, 2000 (collectively,
the "Voting Agreement");
B. The Company desires to sell and issue shares of its Series E
Preferred Stock pursuant to that certain Fourth Additional Series E Preferred
Stock Purchase Agreement of even date herewith (the "Purchase Agreement"); and
C. As an inducement to the New Investors to purchase shares of its
Series E Preferred Stock, the Company and the Existing Investors all desire to
completely amend and restate the Voting Agreement pursuant to Section 2(d) with
respect to the matters set forth therein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual
promises and covenants contained herein it is hereby agreed:
1. VOTING OF SHARES.
(a) Only with respect to a proposal submitted for stockholder
vote for matters on which the Series E Preferred Stock has a separate series
voting right as provided by applicable law (a "Stockholder Proposal"), each
Investor agrees to vote its shares of Series E Preferred Stock in connection
with such separate series voting right for or against such Stockholder Proposal
in the same proportion as a majority of the then outstanding shares of all
series of Preferred Stock (voting as a single class) are voted or abstain.
(b) Notwithstanding subsection (a) above, (i) with respect to
any proposal submitted for stockholder vote that meets the criteria set forth in
Article IV, Section B(8)(d) of the Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation, the Investor will not be subject to the restrictions of
subsection(a) above.
2. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall bind each Investor and
each and all of the heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives,
successors, and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Investor,
and its permitted transferees.
3. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in multiple
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which taken
together shall constitute one instrument. The parties contemplate that
Additional Closings may occur under the Purchase Agreement by which additional
shares of Series E Preferred Stock will be sold to certain investors. Such new
investors shall become party to this Agreement by executing counterpart
signature pages and no further signature shall be required by the Company, the
Existing Investors or the New Investors. Such investors shall be deemed to be
"New Investors" and "Investors" under this Agreement for all purposes hereunder.
4. SEVERABILITY. If in any judicial proceedings, a court shall refuse
to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, then such unenforceable
provision shall be deemed modified or limited so as to effectuate, to the
maximum extent possible, the parties' expressed intent, and if no such
modification or limitation could render it enforceable it shall be eliminated
from this Agreement, and the balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as
if such provision were so eliminated and shall be enforceable in accordance with
its terms.
5. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement constitutes the full and entire
understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects
hereof and thereof, and supercedes all prior agreements with regard to such
subjects.
6. AMENDMENTS. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or
terminated, except with the written consent of the Company and Investors holding
a majority in interest of the Series E Preferred Stock.
7. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws
of the State of Delaware without regard to principles of conflict of laws.
8. REMEDIES. Each of the parties hereby acknowledges and agrees that
the legal remedies available, in the event the covenants and agreements made in
this Agreement are violated, would be inadequate and that any party shall be
entitled, without posting any bond or other security, to temporary, preliminary
and permanent injunctive relief, specific performance and other equitable
remedies in the event of such a violation, in addition to any other remedies
which such party may have at law or in equity.
9. ATTORNEYS' FEES. In any legal proceeding arising out of this
Agreement, including with respect to any instrument, document or agreement made
under or in connection with this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be
entitled to recover its costs and actual attorneys' fees. As used in this
Agreement, "actual attorneys' fees" shall mean the full and actual cost of any
legal services actually performed in connection with the matters involved,
calculated on the basis of the usual hourly fees charged by the attorneys
performing such services.

DIGIRAD CORPORATION
1998 STOCK OPTION/STOCK ISSUANCE PLAN
(AMENDED AND RESTATED AS OF MAY 15, 2001)
ARTICLE ONE
GENERAL PROVISIONS
I. PURPOSE OF THE PLAN
This 1998 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan is intended to
promote the interests of Digirad Corporation by providing eligible persons with
the opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest, or otherwise increase their
proprietary interest, in the Corporation as an incentive for them to remain in
the service of the Corporation.
Capitalized terms shall have the meanings assigned to such
terms in the attached Appendix.
II. STRUCTURE OF THE PLAN
A. The Plan shall be divided into two separate equity
programs:
- the Discretionary Option Grant Program under
which eligible persons may, at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be
granted options to purchase shares of Common Stock, and
- the Stock Issuance Program under which
eligible persons may, at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be issued
shares of Common Stock directly, either through the immediate purchase of such
shares or as a bonus for services rendered the Corporation (or any Parent or
Subsidiary).
B. The provisions of Articles One and Four shall apply to
all equity programs under the Plan and shall govern the interests of all
persons under the Plan.
III. ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN
A. Except as provided in Paragraph B of this Section III,
the Plan shall be administered by the Board or one or more committees
appointed by the Board, provided that (1) beginning with the Section 12
Registration Date, the Primary Committee shall have sole and exclusive
authority to administer the Plan with respect to Section 16 Insiders, and (2)
administration of the Plan may otherwise, at the Board's discretion, be
vested in the Primary Committee or a Secondary Committee.
B. Members of the Primary Committee or any Secondary
Committee shall serve for such period of time as the Board may determine and
may be removed by the Board at any time. The Board may also at any time
terminate the functions of any Secondary Committee and reassume all powers
and authority previously delegated to such committee.
C. Each Plan Administrator shall, within the scope of its
administrative functions under the Plan, have full power and authority
(subject to the provisions of the Plan) to establish such rules and
regulations as it may deem appropriate for proper administration of the
Discretionary Option Grant and Stock Issuance Programs and to make such
determinations under, and issue such interpretations of, the provisions of
such programs and any outstanding options or stock issuances thereunder as it
may deem necessary or advisable. Decisions of the Plan Administrator within
the scope of its administrative functions under the Plan shall be final and
binding on all parties who have an interest in the Discretionary Option Grant
and Stock Issuance Programs under its jurisdiction or any option or stock
issuance thereunder.
D. Service on the Primary Committee or the Secondary
Committee shall constitute service as a Board member, and members of each
such committee shall accordingly be entitled to full indemnification and
reimbursement as Board members for their service on such committee. No member
of the Primary Committee or the Secondary Committee shall be liable for any
act or omission made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any option
grants or stock issuances under the Plan.
IV. ELIGIBILITY
A. The persons eligible to participate in the
Discretionary Option Grant and Stock Issuance Programs are as follows:
(i) Employees,
(ii) non-employee members of the Board or
the board of directors of any Parent or Subsidiary, and
(iii) consultants and other independent
advisors who provide services to the Corporation (or any Parent or
Subsidiary).
B. Each Plan Administrator shall, within the scope of its
administrative jurisdiction under the Plan, have full authority to determine,
(i) with respect to the option grants under the Discretionary Option Grant
Program, which eligible persons are to receive option grants, the time or
times when such option grants are to be made, the number of shares to be
covered by each such grant, the status of the granted option as either an
Incentive Option or a Non-Statutory Option, the time or times when each
option is to become exercisable, the vesting schedule (if any) applicable to
the option shares and the maximum term for which the option is to remain
outstanding and (ii) with respect to stock issuances under the Stock Issuance
Program, which eligible persons are to receive stock issuances, the time or
times when such issuances are to be made, the number of shares to be issued
to each Participant, the vesting schedule (if any) applicable to the issued
shares and the consideration for such shares.
C. The Plan Administrator shall have the absolute
discretion either to grant options in accordance with the Discretionary
Option Grant Program or to effect stock issuances in accordance with the
Stock Issuance Program.
-2-
V. STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN
A. The stock issuable under the Plan shall be shares of
authorized but unissued or reacquired Common Stock, including shares
repurchased by the Corporation on the open market. The maximum number of
shares of Common Stock initially reserved for issuance over the term of the
Plan shall not exceed 5,420,659 shares. Such share reserve includes (i)
1,720,659 shares that were initially reserved for issuance by the Board on
December 17, 1998 and approved by the stockholders on February 1, 1999, plus
(ii) an additional 1,000,000 shares that were approved for issuance by the
Board on March 9, 2000 and by the stockholders on November 14, 2000, plus
(iii) an additional 1,200,000 shares that were approved for issuance by the
Board and stockholders on November 14, 2000, plus (iii) an additional
1,500,000 shares that were approved for issuance by the Board on May 15, 2001
and by the stockholders on June 25, 2001. Such 5,420,659 share reserve shall
be in addition to the 2,734,201 shares issued or reserved for issuance under
the Corporation's 1997 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan.
B. Shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding options
shall be available for subsequent issuance under the Plan to the extent those
options expire or terminate for any reason prior to exercise in full.
Unvested shares issued under the Plan and subsequently cancelled or
repurchased by the Corporation, at the original issue price paid per share,
pursuant to the Corporation's repurchase rights under the Plan shall be added
back to the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the
Plan.
C. If any change is made to the Common Stock by reason of
any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares,
exchange of shares or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as
a class without the Corporation's receipt of consideration, appropriate
adjustments shall be made to (i) the maximum number and/or class of
securities issuable under the Plan, (ii) the number and/or class of
securities for which any one person may be granted stock options, separately
exercisable stock appreciation rights and direct stock issuances under this
Plan per calendar year, and (iii) the number and/or class of securities and
the exercise price per share in effect under each outstanding option under
the Plan. Such adjustments to the outstanding options are to be effected in a
manner which shall preclude the enlargement or dilution of rights and
benefits under such options. The adjustments deter-mined by the Plan
Administrator shall be final, binding and conclusive.
ARTICLE TWO
DISCRETIONARY OPTION GRANT PROGRAM
I. OPTION TERMS
Each option shall be evidenced by one or more documents in the
form approved by the Plan Administrator; provided, however, that each such
document shall comply with the terms specified below. Each document evidencing
an Incentive Option shall, in addition, be subject to the provisions of the Plan
applicable to such options.
-3-
A. EXERCISE PRICE.
1. The exercise price per share shall be fixed
by the Plan Administrator but shall not be less than eighty-five percent
(85%) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the option grant
date, provided that the Plan Administrator may fix the exercise price at less
than 85% if the optionee, at the time of the option grant, shall have made a
payment to the Company (including payment made by means of a salary
reduction) equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock
on the option grant date over such exercise price.
2. The exercise price shall become immediately
due upon exercise of the option and may, subject to the provisions of Section
I of Article Four and the documents evidencing the option, be payable in one
or more of the forms specified below:
(i) cash or check made payable to the
Corporation,
(ii) with respect to the exercise of

held for the requisite period necessary to avoid a charge to the
Corporation's earnings for financial reporting purposes and valued at
Fair Market Value on the Exercise Date, or
(iii) with respect to the exercise of
options for vested shares after the Section 12 Registration Date and
to the extent the sale complies with all applicable laws relating to
the regulation and sale of securities, through a special sale and
remittance procedure pursuant to which the Optionee shall concurrently
provide irrevocable written instructions to (a) a Corporation-
designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of the purchased
shares and remit to the Corporation, out of the sale proceeds available
on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate
exercise price payable for the purchased shares plus all applicable
Federal, state and local income and employment taxes required to be
withheld by the Corporation by reason of such exercise, and (b) the
Corporation to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares
directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale.
Except to the extent such sale and remittance procedure is
utilized, payment of the exercise price for the purchased shares must be made on
the Exercise Date.
B. EXERCISE AND TERM OF OPTIONS. Each option shall be
exercisable at such time or times, during such period and for such number of
shares as shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the
documents evidencing the option. However, no option shall have a term in excess
of ten (10) years measured from the option grant date.
C. EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF SERVICE.
1. The following provisions shall govern the
exercise of any options held by the Optionee at the time of cessation of Service
or death:
-4-
(i) Any option outstanding at the time
of the Optionee's cessation of Service for any reason shall remain
exercisable for such period of time thereafter as shall be
determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the documents
evidencing the option (which shall in no event be less than six (6)
months in the case of death or disability nor less than thirty (30)
days in the case of any other cessation of Service), provided no
such option shall be exercisable after the expiration of the option
term.
(ii) Any option exercisable in whole
or in part by the Optionee at the time of death may be subsequently
exercised by the personal representative of the Optionee's estate or
by the person or persons to whom the option is transferred pursuant
to the Optionee's will or in accordance with the laws of descent and
distribution.
(iii) Subject to clause C.2.(ii) below
of this Section I, during the applicable post-Service exercise
period, the option may not be exercised in the aggregate for more
than the number of vested shares for which the option is exercisable
on the date of the Optionee's cessation of Service. Upon the
expiration of the applicable exercise period or (if earlier) upon
the expiration of the option term, the option shall terminate and
cease to be outstanding for any vested shares for which the option
has not been exercised.
2. The Plan Administrator shall have complete
discretion, exercisable either at the time an option is granted or at any time
while the option remains outstanding, to:
(i) extend the period of time for
which the option is to remain exercisable following the Optionee's
cessation of Service from the limited exercise period otherwise in
effect for that option to such greater period of time as the Plan
Administrator shall deem appropriate, but in no event beyond the
expiration of the option term, and/or
(ii) permit the option to be
exercised, during the applicable post-Service exercise period, not
only with respect to the number of vested shares of Common Stock for
which such option is exercisable at the time of the Optionee's
cessation of Service but also with respect to one or more additional
installments in which the Optionee would have vested had the
Optionee continued in Service.
D. STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS. The holder of an option shall have
no stockholder rights with respect to the shares subject to the option until
such person shall have exercised the option, paid the exercise price and become
a holder of record of the purchased shares.
E. REPURCHASE RIGHTS. The Plan Administrator shall have
the discretion to grant options which are exercisable for unvested shares of
Common Stock and to reserve the right to repurchase any or all of those
unvested shares should the optionee thereafter cease to be in Service to the
Corporation. The terms upon which such repurchase right shall be exercisable
(including the period and procedure for exercise and the appropriate vesting
schedule for the purchased shares) shall be established by the Plan
Administrator and set forth in the document evidencing such repurchase right.
-5-
F. LIMITED TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS. During the
lifetime of the Optionee, options shall be exercisable only by the Optionee
and shall not be assignable or transferable other than by will or by the laws
of descent and distribution following the Optionee's death.
II. INCENTIVE OPTIONS
The terms specified below shall be applicable to all
Incentive Options. Except as modified by the provisions of this Section II,
all the provisions of Articles One, Two and Four shall be applicable to
Incentive Options. Options which are specifically designated as Non-Statutory
Options when issued under the Plan shall not be subject to the terms of this
Section II.
A. ELIGIBILITY. Incentive Options may only be granted to
Employees.
B. EXERCISE PRICE. The exercise price per share shall not
be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per share of
Common Stock on the option grant date.
C. DOLLAR LIMITATION. The aggregate Fair Market Value of
the shares of Common Stock (determined as of the respective date or dates of
grant) for which one or more options granted to any Employee under the Plan
(or any other option plan of the Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary) may
for the first time become exercisable as Incentive Options during any one
calendar year shall not exceed the sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000). To the extent the Employee holds two (2) or more such options
which become exercisable for the first time in the same calendar year, the
foregoing limitation on the exercisability of such options as Incentive
Options shall be applied on the basis of the order in which such options are
granted.
D. 10% STOCKHOLDER. If any Employee to whom an Incentive
Option is granted is a 10% Stockholder, then the exercise price per share
shall not be less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market
Value per share of Common Stock on the option grant date, and the option term
shall not exceed five (5) years measured from the option grant date.
III. CANCELLATION AND REGRANT OF OPTIONS
The Plan Administrator shall have the authority to effect, at
any time and from time to time, with the consent of the affected option holders,
the cancellation of any or all outstanding options under the Discretionary
Option Grant Program and to grant in substitution new options covering the same
or different number of shares of Common Stock but with an exercise price per
share based on the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the new grant
date.

ARTICLE THREE
STOCK ISSUANCE PROGRAM
I. STOCK ISSUANCES
Shares of Common Stock may be issued under the Stock
Issuance Program through direct and immediate issuances without any
intervening option grants. Each such stock issuance shall be evidenced by a
Stock Issuance Agreement which complies with the terms specified below.
II. STOCK ISSUANCE TERMS
A. PURCHASE PRICE.
1. The purchase price per share shall be fixed
by the Plan Administrator, but shall not be less than eighty-five percent
(85%) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the issuance date.
2. Subject to the provisions of Section I of
Article Four, shares of Common Stock may be issued under the Stock Issuance
Program for any of the following items of consideration which the Plan
Administrator may deem appropriate in each individual instance:
(i) cash or check made payable to the
Corporation, or
(ii) past services rendered to the
Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary).
B. VESTING PROVISIONS.
1. Shares of Common Stock issued under the Stock
Issuance Program may, in the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be fully
and immediately vested upon issuance or may vest in one or more installments
over the Participant's period of Service or upon attainment of specified
performance objectives. The elements of the vesting schedule applicable to
any unvested shares of Common Stock issued under the Stock Issuance Program,
namely:
(i) the Service period to be completed
by the Participant or the performance objectives to be attained,
(ii) the number of installments in which
the shares are to vest,
(iii) the interval or intervals (if any)
which are to lapse between installments, and
(iv) the effect which death, Permanent
Disability or other event designated by the Plan Administrator is to
have upon the vesting schedule,
-7-
shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and incorporated into the Stock
Issuance Agreement.
2. Any new, substituted or additional securities
or other property (including money paid other than as a regular cash
dividend) which the Participant may have the right to receive with respect to
the Participant's unvested shares of Common Stock by reason of any stock
dividend, stock split, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of
shares or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class
without the Corporation's receipt of consideration shall be issued subject to
(i) the same vesting requirements applicable to the Participant's unvested
shares of Common Stock and (ii) such escrow arrangements as the Plan
Administrator shall deem appropriate.
3. The Participant shall have full stockholder
rights with respect to any shares of Common Stock issued to the Participant
under the Stock Issuance Program, whether or not the Participant's interest
in those shares is vested. Accordingly, the Participant shall have the right
to vote such shares and to receive any regular cash dividends paid on such
shares.
4. Should the Participant cease to remain in
Service while holding one or more unvested shares of Common Stock issued
under the Stock Issuance Program or should the performance objectives not be
attained with respect to one or more such unvested shares of Common Stock,
then those shares shall be immediately surrendered to the Corporation for
cancellation, and the Participant shall have no further stockholder rights
with respect to those shares. To the extent the surrendered shares were
previously issued to the Participant for consideration paid in cash or cash
equivalent (including the Participant's purchase-money indebtedness), the
Corporation shall repay to the Participant the cash consideration paid for
the surrendered shares and shall cancel the unpaid principal balance of any
outstanding purchase-money note of the Participant attributable to the
surrendered shares.
5. The Plan Administrator may in its discretion
waive the surrender and cancellation of one or more unvested shares of Common
Stock which would otherwise occur upon the cessation of the Participant's
Service or the non-attainment of the performance objectives applicable to
those shares. Such waiver shall result in the immediate vesting of the
Participant's interest in the shares as to which the waiver applies. Such
waiver may be effected at any time, whether before or after the Participant's
cessation of Service or the attainment or non-attainment of the applicable
performance objectives.
ARTICLE FOUR
MISCELLANEOUS
I. FINANCING
The Plan Administrator may permit any Optionee or Participant
to pay the option exercise price under the Discretionary Option Grant Program or
the purchase price of shares issued under the Stock Issuance Program by
delivering a full-recourse, interest bearing
-8-
promissory note payable in one or more installments. The terms of any such
promissory note (including the interest rate and the terms of repayment)
shall be established by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion. In no
event may the maximum credit available to the Optionee or Participant exceed
the sum of (i) the aggregate option exercise price or purchase price payable
for the purchased shares plus (ii) any Federal, state and local income and
employment tax liability incurred by the Optionee or the Participant in
connection with the option exercise or share purchase.
II. SHARE ESCROW/LEGENDS
Unvested shares issued under the Plan may, in the Plan
Administrator's discretion, be held in escrow by the Corporation until the
Participant's interest in such shares vests or may be issued directly to the
Participant with restrictive legends on the certificates evidencing those
unvested shares.
III. CORPORATE TRANSACTION
A. Except as otherwise provided in the agreements
evidencing an option, each outstanding option under the Discretionary Option
Grant Program shall automatically accelerate in the event of a Corporate
Transaction so that each such option shall, immediately prior to the
effective date of the Corporate Transaction, become fully exercisable with
respect to the total number of shares of Common Stock at the time subject to
such option and may be exercised for any or all of those shares as
fully-vested shares of Common Stock, provided that an outstanding option
shall not so accelerate if and to the extent: (i) such option is, in
connection with the Corporate Transaction, either to be assumed by the
successor corporation (or parent thereof) or to be replaced with a comparable
option to purchase shares of the capital stock of the successor corporation
(or parent thereof), (ii) such option is to be replaced with a cash incentive
program of the successor corporation which preserves the spread existing on
the unvested option shares at the time of the Corporate Transaction and
provides for subsequent payout in accordance with the same vesting schedule
applicable to those option shares or (iii) the acceleration of such option is
subject to other limitations imposed by the Plan Administrator at the time of
the option grant. The determination of option comparability under clause (i)
above shall be made by the Plan Administrator, and its determination shall be
final, binding and conclusive.
B. Except as otherwise provided in the agreements creating
the repurchase rights, outstanding repurchase rights, if any, shall terminate
automatically, and the shares of Common Stock subject to those terminated
rights shall immediately vest in full, in the event of any Corporate
Transaction, provided that such repurchase right shall not lapse to the
extent: (i) those repurchase rights are to be assigned to the successor
corporation (or parent thereof) in connection with such Corporate Transaction
or (ii) such accelerated vesting is precluded by other limitations imposed by
the Plan Administrator at the time the option is issued or the repurchase
right is created.
-9-
C. Immediately following the consummation of the Corporate
Transaction, all outstanding options shall terminate and cease to be
outstanding, except to the extent assumed by the successor corporation (or
parent thereof).
D. Each option which is assumed in connection with a
Corporate Transaction shall be appropriately adjusted, immediately after such
Corporate Transaction, to apply to the number and class of securities which
would have been issuable to the Optionee in consummation of such Corporate
Transaction had the option been exercised immediately prior to such Corporate
Transaction. Appropriate adjustments to reflect such Corporate Transaction
shall also be made to (i) the exercise price payable per share under each
outstanding option, provided the aggregate exercise price payable for such
securities shall remain the same, (ii) the maximum number and/or class of
securities available for issuance over the remaining term of the Plan and
(iii) the maximum number and/or class of securities for which any one person
may be granted stock options, separately exercisable stock appreciation
rights and direct stock issuances under the Plan per calendar year.
E. Repurchase rights which are assigned in connection with
a Corporate Transaction shall be exercisable with respect to the property
issued to the Optionee of Participant upon consummation of such Corporate
Transaction in exchange for the Common Stock held by the Optionee or
Participant subject to the repurchase rights immediately prior to the
Corporate Transaction.
F. Except as otherwise limited by the Plan Administrator
at the time an Option is granted, vesting under outstanding options will
automatically accelerate in the event the Optionee's Service subsequently
terminates by reason of an Involuntary Termination within twenty-four (24)
months following the effective date of any Corporate Transaction in which
those options are assumed or replaced and do not otherwise accelerate. Any
options so accelerated shall remain exercisable for fully-vested shares until
the earlier of (i) the expiration of the option term or (ii) the expiration
of the one (1)-year period measured from the effective date of the
Involuntary Termination. The portion of any Incentive Option accelerated in
connection with a Corporate Transaction or Change in Control shall remain
exercisable as an Incentive Option only to the extent the applicable One
Hundred Thousand Dollar limitation is not exceeded and the provisions
governing the exercise and holding period are met. To the extent such dollar
limitation is exceeded, the accelerated portion of such option shall be
exercisable as a Non-Statutory Option under the Federal tax laws.
G. Except as otherwise limited by the Plan Administrator
at the time the option is granted under the Discretionary Option Program or
the repurchase rights are created, the outstanding repurchase rights with
respect to shares held by an Optionee or Participant will automatically lapse
and cease to be exercisable in the event the Optionee's or the Participant's
Service subsequently terminates by means of an Involuntary Termination within
twenty-four (24) months following the effective date of any Corporate
Transaction in which those repurchase rights are assigned or otherwise
continue.
-10-
H. The outstanding options or repurchase rights shall in no way
affect the right of the Corporation to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or
otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate,
dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or
assets.
IV. CHANGE IN CONTROL
A. In the event of any Change in Control, each outstanding option
under the Discretionary Option Grant Program shall automatically accelerate
so that each such option shall, immediately prior to the effective date of
the Change in Control, become fully exercisable with respect to the total
number of shares of Common Stock at the time subject to such option and may
be exercised for any or all of those shares as fully-vested shares of Common
Stock.
B. Outstanding repurchase rights, if any, shall terminate
automatically, and the shares of Common Stock subject to those terminated
rights shall immediately vest in full, in the event of any Change in Control.
V. VESTING
Notwithstanding any other provision of this agreement, the
vesting schedule imposed with respect to any option grant or share issuance
shall not result in the Optionee or Participant vesting in fewer than 20% per
year for five years from the date of the option grant or share issuance.
VI. TAX WITHHOLDING
A. The Corporation's obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock
upon the exercise of options or the issuance or vesting of such shares under
the Plan shall be subject to the satisfaction of all applicable Federal,
state and local income and employment tax withholding requirements.
B. The Plan Administrator may, in its discretion, provide any or
all holders of Non-Statutory Options or unvested shares of Common Stock under
the Plan with the right to use shares of Common Stock in satisfaction of all
or part of the Taxes incurred by such holders in connection with the exercise
of their options or the vesting of their shares. Such right may be provided
to any such holder in either or both of the following formats:
STOCK WITHHOLDING: The election to have the Corporation withhold,
from the shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon the exercise of such
Non-Statutory Option or the vesting of such shares, a portion of those shares
with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the percentage of the Taxes (not
to exceed one hundred percent (100%)) designated by the holder.
STOCK DELIVERY: The election to deliver to the Corporation, at the
time the Non-Statutory Option is exercised or the shares vest, one or more
shares of Common Stock previously acquired by such holder (other than in
connection with the option exercise or share
-11-
vesting triggering the Taxes) with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to
the percentage of the Taxes (not to exceed one hundred percent (100%))
designated by the holder.
VII. EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERM OF THE PLAN
A. The Plan shall become effective immediately upon the Plan
Effective Date. Options may be granted under the Discretionary Option Grant
at any time on or after the Plan Effective Date. However, no options granted
under the Plan may be exercised, and no shares shall be issued under the
Plan, until the Plan is approved by the Corporation's stockholders. If such
stockholder approval is not obtained within twelve (12) months after the Plan
Effective Date, then all options previously granted under this Plan shall
terminate and cease to be outstanding, and no further options shall be
granted and no shares shall be issued under the Plan.
B. All options outstanding as of the Plan Effective Date shall be
incorporated into the Plan at that time and shall be treated as outstanding
options under the Plan. However, each outstanding option so incorporated
shall continue to be governed solely by the terms of the documents evidencing
such option, and no provision of the Plan shall be deemed to affect or
otherwise modify the rights or obligations of the holders of such
incorporated options with respect to their acquisition of shares of Common
Stock.
C. The Plan shall terminate upon the earliest of (i) the tenth
anniversary of the Plan Effective Date, (ii) the date on which all shares
available for issuance under the Plan shall have been issued as fully-vested
shares or (iii) the termination of all outstanding options in connection with
a Corporate Transaction. Upon such plan termination, all outstanding option
grants and unvested stock issuances shall thereafter continue to have force
and effect in accordance with the provisions of the documents evidencing such
grants or issuances.
VIII. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN
A. The Board shall have complete and exclusive power and authority
to amend or modify the Plan in any or all respects. However, no such
amendment or modification shall adversely affect the rights and obligations
with respect to stock options or unvested stock issuances at the time
outstanding under the Plan unless the Optionee or the Participant consents to
such amendment or modification. In addition, certain amendments may require
stockholder approval if so determined by the Board or pursuant to applicable
laws or regulations.
-12-
B. Options to purchase shares of Common Stock may be granted under
the Discretionary Option Grant and shares of Common Stock may be issued under
the Stock Issuance Program that are in each instance in excess of the number
of shares then available for issuance under the Plan, provided any excess
shares actually issued under those programs shall be held in escrow until
there is obtained any required approval of an amendment sufficiently
increasing the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under
the Plan. If such approval is not obtained within twelve (12) months after
the date the first such excess issuances are made, then (i) any unexercised
options granted on the basis of such excess shares shall terminate and cease
to be outstanding and (ii) the Corporation shall promptly refund to the
Optionees and the Participants the exercise or purchase price paid for any
excess shares issued under the Plan and held in escrow, together with
interest (at the applicable Short Term Federal Rate) for the period the
shares were held in escrow, and such shares shall thereupon be automatically
cancelled and cease to be outstanding.
IX. USE OF PROCEEDS
Any cash proceeds received by the Corporation from the sale of
shares of Common Stock under the Plan shall be used for general corporate
purposes.
X. REGULATORY APPROVALS
A. The implementation of the Plan, the granting of any stock option
under the Plan and the issuance of any shares of Common Stock (i) upon the
exercise of any granted option or (ii) under the Stock Issuance Program shall
be subject to the Corporation's procurement of all approvals and permits
required by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over the Plan, the
stock options granted under it and the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant
to it.
B. No shares of Common Stock or other assets shall be issued or
delivered under the Plan unless and until there shall have been compliance
with all applicable requirements of Federal and state securities laws,
including the filing and effectiveness of the Form S-8 registration statement
for the shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan, and all applicable
listing requirements of any stock exchange (or the Nasdaq National Market, if
applicable) on which Common Stock is then listed for trading.
XI. NO EMPLOYMENT/SERVICE RIGHTS
Nothing in the Plan shall confer upon the Optionee or the
Participant any right to continue in Service for any period of specific
duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the
Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining such person)
or of the Optionee or the Participant, which rights are hereby expressly
reserved by each, to terminate such person's Service at any time for any
reason, with or without cause.
-13-
XVII. FINANCIAL REPORTS
The Corporation shall deliver a balance sheet and an income
statement at least annually to each individual holding an outstanding option

DIGIRAD CORPORATION
STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
RECITALS
A. The Board of Directors of the Corporation has adopted the Digirad
Corporation 1998 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan (the "Plan") for the
purpose of attracting and retaining the services of persons who contribute to
the growth and financial success of the Corporation.
B. Optionee is a person who the Plan Administrator believes has and
will contribute to the growth and financial success of the Corporation and
this Agreement is executed pursuant to and is intended to carry out the
purposes of the Plan.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed as follows:
1. GRANT OF OPTION. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement, the Corporation hereby grants to Optionee, as of the
grant date (the "Grant Date") specified in the accompanying Notice of Grant
of Stock Option (the "Grant Notice"), a stock option to purchase up to that
number of shares of the Corporation's Common Stock (the "Option Shares") as
is specified in the Grant Notice. The Option Shares shall be purchasable from
time to time during the option term at the option price per share (the
"Option Price") specified in the Grant Notice. Capitalized terms used herein
which are not otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms
in the Plan.
2. OPTION TERM. This option shall have a maximum term of ten (10)
years measured from the Grant Date and shall expire at the close of business
on the expiration date (the "Expiration Date") specified in the Grant Notice,
unless sooner terminated in accordance with Paragraph 5, 6 or 17.
3. LIMITED TRANSFERABILITY. This option shall be neither
transferable nor assignable by Optionee other than by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution following Optionee's death and may be exercised,
during Optionee's lifetime, only by Optionee.
4. DATES OF EXERCISE. This option may not be exercised in whole or
in part at any time prior to the time the Plan is approved by the
Corporation's shareholders in accordance with Paragraph 17. Provided such
shareholder approval is obtained, this option shall thereupon become
exercisable for the Option Shares in one or more installments as is specified
in the Grant Notice. As the option becomes exercisable in one or more
installments, the installments shall accumulate and the option shall remain
exercisable for such installments until the Expiration Date or the sooner
termination of the option term under Paragraph 5 or Paragraph 6 of this
Agreement.
5. SPECIAL TERMINATION OF OPTION TERM. The option term specified in
Paragraph 2 shall terminate (and this option shall cease to be exercisable)
prior to the Expiration Date should any of the following provisions become
applicable:
(i) Except as otherwise provided in
subparagraph (ii) or (iii) below, should Optionee cease to remain in
Service while this option is outstanding, then the period for
exercising this option shall be reduced to a three (3)-month period
commencing with the date of such cessation of Service, but in no
event shall this option be exercisable at any time after the
Expiration Date. Upon the expiration of such three (3)-month period
or (if earlier) upon the Expiration Date, this option shall
terminate and cease to be outstanding.
(ii) Should Optionee die while this
option is outstanding, then the personal representative of the
Optionee's estate or the person or persons to whom the option is
transferred pursuant to the Optionee's will or in accordance with
the law of descent and distribution shall have the right to exercise
this option. Such right shall lapse and this option shall cease to
be exercisable upon the EARLIER of (A) the expiration of the twelve
(12) month period measured from the date of Optionee's death or (B)
the Expiration Date. Upon the expiration of such twelve (12) month
period or (if earlier) upon the Expiration Date, this option shall
terminate and cease to be outstanding.
(iii) Should Optionee become permanently
disabled and cease by reason thereof to remain in Service while this
option is outstanding, then the Optionee shall have a period of
twelve (12) months (commencing with the date of such cessation of
Service) during which to exercise this option, but in no event shall
this option be exercisable at any time after the Expiration Date.
Optionee shall be deemed to be permanently disabled if Optionee is
unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity for the
Corporation or the parent or subsidiary corporation retaining
his/her services by reason of any medically determinable physical or
mental impairment, which can be expected to result in death or which
has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not
less than twelve (12) months. Upon the expiration of such limited
period of exercisability or (if earlier) upon the Expiration Date,
this option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding.
(iv) During the limited period of
exercisability applicable under subparagraph (i), (ii) or (iii)
above, this option may be exercised for any or all of the Option
Shares for which this option is, at the time of the Optionee's
cessation of Service, exercisable in accordance with the exercise
schedule specified in the Grant Notice and the provisions of
Paragraph 6 of this Agreement.
(v) For purposes of this Paragraph 5
and for all other purposes under this Agreement:
A. The Optionee shall be deemed to remain in Service for so
long as the Optionee continues to render periodic services to the Corporation
or any parent or subsidiary
2
corporation, whether as an Employee, a non-employee member of the board of
directors, or an independent contractor or consultant.
B. The Optionee shall be deemed to be an EMPLOYEE of the
Corporation and to continue in the Corporation's employ for so long as the
Optionee remains in the employ of the Corporation or one or more of its
parent or subsidiary corporations, subject to the control and direction of
the employer entity as to both the work to be performed and the manner and
method of performance.
C. A corporation shall be considered to be a SUBSIDIARY
corporation of the Corporation if it is a member of an unbroken chain of
corporations beginning with the Corporation, provided each such corporation
in the chain (other than the last corporation) owns, at the time of
determination, stock possessing 50% or more of the total combined voting
power of all classes of stock in one of the other corporations in such chain.
D. A corporation shall be considered to be a PARENT
corporation of the Corporation if it is a member of an unbroken chain ending
with the Corporation, provided each such corporation in the chain (other than
the Corporation) owns, at the time of determination, stock possessing 50% or
more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock in one of the
other corporations in such chain.
6. EFFECT OF CORPORATE TRANSACTION.
A. Optionee shall automatically vest in full with respect
to all of the Option Shares in the event of a Corporate Transaction so that
each such option shall, immediately prior to the effective date of the
Corporate Transaction, may be exercised for any or all of the Option Shares
as fully-vested shares of Common Stock, provided that the Option Shares shall
not automatically vest in full if and to the extent: (i) this option is, in
connection with the Corporate Transaction, either to be assumed by the
successor corporation (or parent thereof) or to be replaced with a comparable
option to purchase shares of the capital stock of the successor corporation
(or parent thereof), or (ii) such option is to be replaced with a cash
incentive program of the successor corporation which preserves the spread
existing on the unvested option shares at the time of the Corporate
Transaction and provides for subsequent payout in accordance with the same
vesting schedule applicable to those option shares. The determination of
option comparability under clause (i) above shall be made by the Plan
Administrator, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.
B. To the extent not previously exercised, this Option
shall terminate and cease to be exercisable upon the consummation of a
Corporate Transaction unless it is expressly assumed by the successor
corporation or parent thereof.
C. Option Shares available under any options which are
assumed or replaced in the Corporate Transaction and do not otherwise
accelerate at that time, shall automatically vest in full in the event the
Optionee's Service should subsequently terminated by reason of an Involuntary
Termination within twenty-four (24) months following the effective date of
such Corporate Transaction. Any options so accelerated shall remain
exercisable for fully-vested
3
shares until the EARLIER of (i) the expiration of the option term or (ii) the
expiration of the one (1)-year period measured from the effective date of the
Involuntary Termination.
D. This Agreement shall not in any way affect the right of
the Corporation to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise make changes
in its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve,
liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.
7. EFFECT OF CHANGE IN CONTROL
In the event of any Change in Control, Optionee shall
automatically vest in full with respect to all Option Shares so that each
such option shall, immediately prior to the effective date of the Change in
Control, be fully exercisable for any or all of Option Shares as fully-vested
shares of Common Stock.
8. ADJUSTMENT IN OPTION SHARES.
A. In the event any change is made to the Corporation's
outstanding Common Stock by reason of any stock split, stock dividend,
combination of shares, exchange of shares, or other change affecting the
outstanding Common Stock as a class without receipt of consideration, then
appropriate adjustments shall be made to (i) the total number of Option
Shares subject to this option, (ii) the number of Option Shares for which
this option is to be exercisable from and after each installment date
specified in the Grant Notice and (iii) the Option Price payable per share in
order to reflect such change and thereby preclude a dilution or enlargement
of benefits hereunder.
B. If this option is to be assumed in connection with a
Corporate Transaction described in Paragraph 6 or is otherwise to remain
outstanding, then this option shall be appropriately adjusted, immediately
after such Corporate Transaction, to apply and pertain to the number and
class of securities which would have been issuable to the Optionee in the
consummation of such Corporate Transaction had the option been exercised
immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction, and appropriate adjustments
shall also be made to the Option Price payable per share, provided the
aggregate Option Price payable hereunder shall remain the same.
9. PRIVILEGE OF STOCK OWNERSHIP. The holder of this option
shall not have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Option
Shares until such individual shall have exercised the option and paid the
Option Price.
10. MANNER OF EXERCISING OPTION.
A. In order to exercise this option with respect to all or
any part of the Option Shares for which this option is at the time
exercisable, Optionee (or in the case of exercise after Optionee's death, the
Optionee's executor, administrator, heir or legatee, as the case may be) must
take the following actions:
4
(i) Execute and deliver to the Secretary
of the Corporation a stock purchase agreement (the "Purchase
Agreement") in substantially the form of Exhibit B to the Grant Notice.
(ii) Pay the aggregate Option Price
for the purchased shares in one or more forms approved under the
Plan.
(iii) Furnish to the Corporation
appropriate documentation that the person or persons exercising the
option, if other than Optionee, have the right to exercise this option.
B. For purposes of this Agreement, the Exercise Date shall
be the date on which the executed Purchase Agreement shall have been
delivered to the Corporation, and the fair market value of a share of Common
Stock on any relevant date shall be determined in accordance with
subparagraphs (i) through (iii) below:
(i) If the Common Stock is not at the
time listed or admitted to trading on any stock exchange but is
traded on the NASDAQ National Market System, the fair market value
shall be the closing selling price of one share of Common Stock on
the date in question, as such price is reported by the National
Association of Securities Dealers through its NASDAQ system or any
successor system. If there is no closing selling price for the
Common Stock on the date in question, then the closing selling price
on the last preceding date for which such quotation exists shall be
determinative of fair market value.
(ii) If the Common Stock is at the
time listed or admitted to trading on any stock exchange, then the
fair market value shall be the closing selling price per share of
Common Stock on the date in question on the stock exchange
determined by the Plan Administrator to be the primary market for
the Common Stock, as such price is officially quoted in the
composite tape of transactions on such exchange. If there is no
reported sale of Common Stock on such exchange on the date in
question, then the fair market value shall be the closing selling
price on the exchange on the last preceding date for which such
quotation exists.
(iii) If the Common Stock at the time
is neither listed nor admitted to trading on any stock exchange nor
traded in the over-the-counter market, or if the Plan Administrator
determines that the value determined pursuant to subparagraphs (i)
and (ii) above does not accurately reflect the fair market value of
the Common Stock, then such fair market value shall be determined by
the Plan Administrator after taking into account such factors as the
Plan Administrator shall deem appropriate.
C. As soon after the Exercise Date as practical, the
Corporation shall mail or deliver to Optionee or to the other person or
persons exercising this option a certificate or certificates representing the
shares so purchased and paid for, with the appropriate legends affixed
thereto.
5
D. In no event may this option be exercised for any
fractional shares.
11. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND REGULATIONS.
A. The exercise of this option and the issuance of Option
Shares upon such exercise shall be subject to compliance by the Corporation
and the Optionee with all applicable requirements of law relating thereto and
with all applicable regulations of any stock exchange on which shares of the
Corporation's Common Stock may be listed at the time of such exercise and
issuance.
B. In connection with the exercise of this option, Optionee
shall execute and deliver to the Corporation such representations in writing
as may be requested by the Corporation in order for it to comply with the
applicable requirements of Federal and State securities laws.
12. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Except to the extent otherwise
provided in Paragraph 3 or 6, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to
the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, administrators, heirs,
legal representatives and assigns of Optionee and the successors and assigns
of the Corporation.
13. LIABILITY OF CORPORATION.
A. If the Option Shares covered by this Agreement exceed,
as of the Grant Date, the number of shares of Common Stock which may without
shareholder approval be issued under the Plan, then this option shall be void
with respect to such excess shares, unless shareholder approval of an
amendment sufficiently increasing the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable under the Plan is obtained in accordance with the provisions of
Article IV, Section 3, of the Plan.
B. The inability of the Corporation to obtain approval from
any regulatory body having authority deemed by the Corporation to be
necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Common Stock pursuant to
this option shall relieve the Corporation of any liability with respect to
the non-issuance or sale of the Common Stock as to which such approval shall
not have been obtained. The Corporation, however, shall use its best efforts
to obtain all such approvals.
14. NOTICES. Any notice required to be given or delivered to
the Corporation under the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and
addressed to the Corporation in care of the Corporate Secretary at its
principal corporate offices. Any notice required to be given or delivered to
Optionee shall be in writing and addressed to Optionee at the address
indicated below Optionee's signature line on the Grant Notice. All notices
shall be deemed to have been given or delivered upon personal delivery or
upon deposit in the U.S. mail, postage prepaid and properly addressed to the
party to be notified.
15. LOANS. The Plan Administrator may, in its absolute
discretion and without any obligation to do so, assist the Optionee in the
exercise of this option by (i) authorizing the
6
extension of a loan to the Optionee from the Corporation or (ii) permitting
the Optionee to pay the option price for the purchased Common Stock in
installments over a period of years. The terms of any such loan or
installment method of payment (including the interest rate, the requirements
for collateral and the terms of repayment) shall be established by the Plan
Administrator in its sole discretion.
16. CONSTRUCTION. This Agreement and the option evidenced hereby are
made and granted pursuant to the Plan and are in all respects limited by and
subject to the express terms and provisions of the Plan. All decisions of the
Plan Administrator with respect to any question or issue arising under the
Plan or this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on all persons having
an interest in this option.
17. GOVERNING LAW. The interpretation, performance, and enforcement
of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware
without resort to that State's conflict-of-laws rules.
18. SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL. The grant of this option is subject to
approval of the Plan by the Corporation's shareholders within twelve (12)
months after the adoption of the Plan by the Board of Directors.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, THIS OPTION
MAY NOT BE EXERCISED IN WHOLE OR IN PART UNTIL SUCH SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL IS
OBTAINED. In the event that such shareholder approval is not obtained, then
this option shall thereupon terminate in its entirety and the Optionee shall
have no further rights to acquire any Option Shares hereunder.
19. ADDITIONAL TERMS APPLICABLE TO AN INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION. In the
event this option is designated an incentive stock option in the Grant
Notice, the following terms and conditions shall also apply to the grant:
A. This option shall cease to qualify for favorable tax
treatment as an incentive stock option under the Federal tax laws if (and to
the extent) this option is exercised for one or more Option Shares: (i) more
than three (3) months after the date the Optionee ceases to be an Employee
for any reason other than death or permanent disability (as defined in
Paragraph 5) or (ii) more than one (1) year after the date the Optionee
ceases to be an Employee by reason of permanent disability.
B. Should this option be designated as immediately
exercisable in the Grant Notice, then this option shall not become
exercisable in the calendar year in which granted if (and to the extent) the
aggregate fair market value (determined at the Grant Date) of the
Corporation's Common Stock for which this option would otherwise first become
exercisable in such calendar year would, when added to the aggregate fair
market value (determined as of the respective date or dates of grant) of the
Corporation's Common Stock for which this option or one or more other
incentive stock options granted to the Optionee prior to the Grant Date
(whether under the Plan or any other option plan of the Corporation or its
parent or subsidiary corporations) first become exercisable during the same
calendar year, exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in the
aggregate. To the extent the exercisability of this option is deferred by
reason of the foregoing limitation, the deferred portion will first become
exercisable
7
in the first calendar year or years thereafter in which the One Hundred
Thousand Dollar ($100,000) limitation of this Paragraph 18.B would not be
contravened.
C. Should this option be designated as exercisable in
installments in the Grant Notice, then no installment under this option
(whether annual or monthly) shall qualify for favorable tax treatment as an
incentive stock option under the Federal tax laws if (and to the extent) the
aggregate fair market value (determined at the Grant Date) of the
Corporation's Common Stock for which such installment first becomes
exercisable hereunder will, when added to the aggregate fair market value
(determined as of the respective date or dates of grant) of the Corporation's
Common Stock for which one or more other incentive stock options granted to
the Optionee prior to the Grant Date (whether under the Plan or any other
option plan of the Corporation or any parent or subsidiary corporation) first
become exercisable during the same calendar year, exceed One Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($100,000) in the aggregate.
20. WITHHOLDING. Optionee hereby agrees to make appropriate
arrangements with the Corporation or parent or subsidiary corporation
employing Optionee for the satisfaction of all Federal, State or local income
tax withholding requirements and Federal social security employee tax
requirements applicable to the exercise of this option.

EXHIBIT 10.25
IMMEDIATELY EXERCISABLE
DIGIRAD CORPORATION
STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
AGREEMENT made as of this ___ day of __________, 19__, by and among
Digirad Corporation, (the "Corporation"), ___________, the holder of a stock
option (the "Optionee") under the Corporation's 1998 Stock Option/Stock
Issuance Plan and ____________, the Optionee's spouse.
I. EXERCISE OF OPTION
1.1 EXERCISE. Optionee hereby purchases shares
("Purchased Shares") of the Corporation's common stock ("Common Stock")
pursuant to that certain option ("Option") granted Optionee on _____________,
19___ ("Grant Date") to purchase up to ____________ shares of the Common
Stock ("Total Purchasable Shares") under the Corporation's 1998 Stock
Option/Stock Issuance Plan (the "Plan") at an option price of $__________ per
share ("Option Price").
1.2 PAYMENT. Concurrently with the delivery of this
Agreement to the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation, Optionee shall pay
the Option Price for the Purchased Shares in accordance with the provisions
of the agreement between the Corporation and Optionee evidencing the Option
(the "Option Agreement") and shall deliver whatever additional documents may
be required by the Option Agreement as a condition for exercise, together
with a duly-executed blank Assignment Separate from Certificate (in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit I) with respect to the Purchased Shares.
1.3 DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATES. The certificates representing
the Purchased Shares hereunder shall be held in escrow by the Corporate
Secretary of the Corporation in accordance with the provisions of Article VII.
1.4 SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS. Until such time as the Corporation
actually exercises its repurchase right, rights of first refusal or special
purchase right under this Agreement, Optionee (or any successor in interest)
shall have all the rights of a shareholder (including voting and dividend
rights) with respect to the Purchased Shares, including the Purchased Shares
held in escrow under Article VII, subject, however, to the transfer
restrictions of Article IV.
II. SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE
2.1 EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION. The Purchased Shares have
not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933
Act"), and are accordingly being issued to Optionee in reliance upon the
exemption from such registration provided by Rule 701 of the Securities and
Exchange Commission for stock issuances under compensatory benefit
plans such as the Plan. Optionee hereby acknowledges previous receipt of a
copy of the documentation for such Plan in the form of Exhibit C to the
Notice of Grant of Stock Option (the "Grant Notice") accompanying the Option
Agreement.
2.2 RESTRICTED SECURITIES.
A. Optionee hereby confirms that Optionee
has been informed that the Purchased Shares are restricted securities under
the 1933 Act and may not be resold or transferred unless the Purchased Shares
are first registered under the Federal securities laws or unless an exemption
from such registration is available. Accordingly, Optionee hereby
acknowledges that Optionee is prepared to hold the Purchased Shares for an
indefinite period and that Optionee is aware that Rule 144 of the Securities
and Exchange Commission issued under the 1933 Act is not presently available
to exempt the sale of the Purchased Shares from the registration requirements
of the 1933 Act.
B. Upon the expiration of the ninety
(90)-day period immediately following the date on which the Corporation first
becomes subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the Purchased Shares, to the extent
vested under Article V, may be sold (without registration) pursuant to the
applicable requirements of Rule 144. If Optionee is at the time of such sale
an affiliate of the Corporation for purposes of Rule 144 or was such an
affiliate during the preceding three (3) months, then the sale must comply
with all the requirements of Rule 144 (including the volume limitation on the
number of shares sold, the broker/market-maker sale requirement and the
requisite notice to the Securities and Exchange Commission); however, the two
(2)-year holding period requirement of the Rule will not be applicable. If
Optionee is not at the time of the sale an affiliate of the Corporation nor
was such an affiliate during the preceding three (3) months, then none of the
requirements of Rule 144 (other than the broker/market-maker sale requirement
for Purchased Shares held for less than three (3) years following payment in
cash of the Option Price therefor) will be applicable to the sale.
C. Should the Corporation not become subject
to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, then Optionee may,
provided he/she is not at the time an affiliate of the Corporation (nor was
such an affiliate during the preceding three (3) months), sell the Purchased
Shares (without registration) pursuant to paragraph (k) of Rule 144 after the
Purchased Shares have been held for a period of three (3) years following the
payment in cash of the Option Price for such shares.
2.3 DISPOSITION OF SHARES. Optionee hereby agrees that
Optionee shall make no disposition of the Purchased Shares (other than a
permitted transfer under paragraph 4.1) unless and until there is compliance
with all of the following requirements:
(a) Optionee shall have notified the Corporation of
the proposed disposition and provided a written summary of the terms
and conditions of the proposed disposition.
2
(b) Optionee shall have complied with all
require-ments of this Agreement applicable to the disposition of the
Purchased Shares.
(c) Optionee shall have provided the Corporation with
written assurances, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Corporation, that (i) the proposed disposition does not require
registration of the Purchased Shares under the 1933 Act or (ii) all
appropriate action necessary for compliance with the registration
requirements of the 1933 Act or of any exemption from registration
available under the 1933 Act (including Rule 144) has been taken.
(d) Optionee shall have provided the Corporation with
written assurances, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Corporation, that the proposed disposition will not result in the
contravention of any transfer restrictions applicable to the Purchased
Shares pursuant to the provisions of the Commissioner Rules identified
in paragraph 2.5.
The Corporation shall not be required (i) to transfer on
its books any Purchased Shares which have been sold or transferred in
violation of the provisions of this Article II nor (ii) to treat as the owner
of the Purchased Shares, or otherwise to accord voting or dividend rights to,
any transferee to whom the Purchased Shares have been transferred in
contravention of this Agreement.
2.4 RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS. In order to reflect the
restrictions on disposition of the Purchased Shares, the stock certificates
for the Purchased Shares will be endorsed with restrictive legends, including
one or more of the following legends:
(i) "The shares represented by this
certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933. The
shares may not be sold or offered for sale in the absence of (a) an effective
registration statement for the shares under such Act, (b) a 'no action'
letter of the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to such sale or
offer, or (c) satisfactory assurances to the Corporation that registration
under such Act is not required with respect to such sale or offer."
(ii) "The shares represented by this
certificate are unvested and accordingly may not be sold, assigned,
transferred, encumbered, or in any manner disposed of except in conformity
with the terms of a written agreement dated ____________, 19__ between the
Corporation and the registered holder of the shares (or the predecessor in
interest to the shares). Such agreement grants certain repurchase rights and
rights of first refusal to the Corporation (or its assignees) upon the sale,
assignment, transfer, encumbrance or other disposition of the Corporation's
shares or upon termination of service with the Corporation. The Corporation
will upon written request furnish a copy of such agreement to the holder
hereof without charge."

III. SPECIAL TAX ELECTION
3.1 SECTION 83(b) ELECTION APPLICABLE TO THE EXERCISE OF A
NON-STATUTORY STOCK OPTION. If the Purchased Shares are acquired hereunder
pursuant to the exercise of a NON-STATUTORY STOCK OPTION, as specified in the
Grant Notice, then the Optionee understands that under Section 83 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the excess of the
fair market value of the Purchased Shares on the date any forfeiture
restrictions applicable to such shares lapse over the Option Price paid for
such shares will be reportable as ordinary income on such lapse date. For
this purpose, the term "forfeiture restrictions" includes the right of the
Corporation to repurchase the Purchased Shares pursuant to the Repurchase
Right provided under Article V of this Agreement. Optionee understands that
he/she may elect under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed at the time the
Purchased Shares are acquired hereunder, rather than when and as such
Purchased Shares cease to be subject to such forfeiture restrictions. Such
election must be filed with the Internal Revenue Service within thirty (30)
days after the date of this Agreement. Even if the fair market value of the
Purchased Shares at the date of this Agreement equals the Option Price paid
(and thus no tax is payable), the election must be made to avoid adverse tax
consequences in the future. THE FORM FOR MAKING THIS ELECTION IS ATTACHED AS
EXHIBIT II HERETO. OPTIONEE UNDERSTANDS THAT FAILURE TO MAKE THIS FILING
WITHIN THE THIRTY (30)-DAY PERIOD WILL RESULT IN THE RECOGNITION OF ORDINARY
INCOME BY THE OPTIONEE AS THE FORFEITURE RESTRICTIONS LAPSE.
3.2 CONDITIONAL SECTION 83(b) ELECTION APPLICABLE TO THE
EXERCISE OF AN INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION. If the Purchased Shares are acquired
hereunder pursuant to the exercise of an INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION under the
Federal tax laws, as specified in the Grant Notice, then the following tax
principles shall be applicable to the Purchased Shares:
A. For regular tax purposes, no taxable income
will be recognized at the time the Option is exercised.
B. The excess of (i) the fair market value of the
Purchased Shares on the date the Option is exercised or (if later) on
the date any forfeiture restrictions applicable to the Purchased Shares
lapse over (ii) the Option Price paid for the Purchased Shares will be
includible in the Optionee's taxable income for alternative minimum tax
purposes.
C. If the Optionee makes a disqualifying disposition
of the Purchased Shares, then the Optionee will recognize ordinary
income in the year of such disposition equal in amount to the excess of
(i) the fair market value of the Purchased Shares on the date the
Option is exercised or (if later) on the date any forfeiture
restrictions applicable to the Purchased Shares lapse over (ii) the
Option Price paid for the Purchased Shares. Any additional gain
recognized upon the disqualifying disposition will be either short-term
or long-term capital gain depending upon the period for which the
Purchased Shares are held prior to the disposition.
D. For purposes of the foregoing, the term
"forfeiture restrictions" will include the right of the Corporation to
repurchase the Purchased Shares pursuant to
4
the Repurchase Right provided under Article V of this Agreement. The
term "disqualifying disposition" means any sale or other disposition
(1/) of the Purchased Shares within two (2) years after the Grant Date
or within one (1) year after the execution date of this Agreement.
E. In the absence of final Treasury Regulations
relating to incentive stock options, it is not certain whether the
Optionee may, in connection with the exercise of the Option for any
Purchased Shares at the time subject to forfeiture restrictions, file a
protective election under Section 83(b) of the Code which would limit
(I) the Optionee's alternative minimum taxable income upon exercise and
(II) the Optionee's ordinary income upon a disqualifying disposition,
to the excess of (i) the fair market value of the Purchased Shares on
the date the Option is exercised over (ii) the Option Price paid for
the Purchased Shares. THE APPROPRIATE FORM FOR MAKING SUCH A PROTECTIVE
ELECTION IS ATTACHED AS EXHIBIT II TO THIS AGREEMENT AND MUST BE FILED
WITH THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER THE
DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT. HOWEVER, SUCH ELECTION IF PROPERLY FILED WILL
ONLY BE ALLOWED TO THE EXTENT THE FINAL TREASURY REGULATIONS PERMIT
SUCH A PROTECTIVE ELECTION.
3.3 OPTIONEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS OPTIONEE'S SOLE
RESPONSIBILITY, AND NOT THE CORPORATION'S, TO FILE A TIMELY ELECTION UNDER
SECTION 83(b), EVEN IF OPTIONEE REQUESTS THE CORPORATION OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES
TO MAKE THIS FILING ON HIS/HER BEHALF. This filing should be made by registered
or certified mail, return receipt requested, and Optionee must retain two (2)
copies of the completed form for filing with his or her State and Federal tax
returns for the current tax year and an additional copy for his or her records.
IV. TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS
4.1 RESTRICTION ON TRANSFER. Optionee shall not transfer,
assign, encumber or otherwise dispose of any of the Purchased Shares which
are subject to the Corporation's Repurchase Right under Article V. In
addition, Purchased Shares which are released from the Repurchase Right shall
not be transferred, assigned, encumbered or otherwise made the subject of
disposition in contravention of the Corporation's First Refusal Right under
Article VI. Such restrictions on transfer, however, shall not be applicable
to (i) a gratuitous transfer of the Purchased Shares made to the Optionee's
spouse or issue, including adopted children, or to a trust for the exclusive
benefit of the Optionee or the Optionee's spouse or issue, PROVIDED AND ONLY
IF the Optionee obtains the Corporation's prior written consent to such
transfer, (ii) a
----------------------
(1/) Generally, a disposition of shares purchased under an incentive
stock option includes any transfer of legal title, including a transfer by sale,
exchange or gift, but does not include a transfer to the Optionee's spouse, a
transfer into joint ownership with right of survivorship if Optionee remains one
of the joint owners, a pledge, a transfer by bequest or inheritance or certain
tax free exchanges permitted under the Code.
5
transfer of title to the Purchased Shares effected pursuant to the Optionee's
will or the laws of intestate succession or (iii) a transfer to the
Corporation in pledge as security for any purchase-money indebtedness
incurred by the Optionee in connection with the acquisition of the Purchased
Shares.
4.2 TRANSFEREE OBLIGATIONS. Each person (other than the
Corporation) to whom the Purchased Shares are transferred by means of one of
the permitted transfers specified in paragraph 4.1 must, as a condition
precedent to the validity of such transfer, acknowledge in writing to the
Corporation that such person is bound by the provisions of this Agreement and
that the transferred shares are subject to (i) both the Corporation's
Repurchase Right and the Corporation's First Refusal Right granted hereunder
and (ii) the market stand-off provisions of paragraph 4.4, to the same extent
such shares would be so subject if retained by the Optionee.
4.3 DEFINITION OF OWNER. For purposes of Articles IV, V, VI
and VII of this Agreement, the term "Owner" shall include the Optionee and
all subsequent holders of the Purchased Shares who derive their chain of
ownership through a permitted transfer from the Optionee in accordance with
paragraph 4.1.
4.4 MARKET STAND-OFF PROVISIONS.
A. In connection with any underwritten
public offering by the Corporation of its equity securities pursuant to an
effective registration statement filed under the 1933 Act, including the
Corporation's initial public offering, Owner shall not sell, make any short
sale of, loan, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option for the purchase of, or
otherwise dispose or transfer for value or otherwise agree to engage in any
of the foregoing transactions with respect to, any Purchased Shares without
the prior written consent of the Corporation or its underwriters. Such
limitations shall be in effect for such period of time from and after the
effective date of such registration statement as may be requested by the
Corporation or such underwriters; PROVIDED, however, that in no event shall
such period exceed one hundred-eighty (180) days. The limitations of this
paragraph 4.4 shall remain in effect for the two-year period immediately
following the effective date of the Corporation's initial public offering and
shall thereafter terminate and cease to have any force or effect.
B. Owner shall be subject to the market
stand-off provisions of this paragraph 4.4 PROVIDED AND ONLY IF the officers
and directors of the Corporation are also subject to similar arrangements.
C. In the event of any stock dividend, stock
split, recapitalization or other change affecting the Corporation's
outstanding Common Stock effected as a class without receipt of
considera-tion, then any new, substituted or additional securities
distributed with respect to the Purchased Shares shall be immediately subject
to the provisions of this paragraph 4.4, to the same extent the Purchased
Shares are at such time covered by such provisions.
D. In order to enforce the limitations of
this paragraph 4.4, the Corporation may impose stop-transfer instruc-tions
with respect to the Purchased Shares until the end of the applicable
stand-off period.
6
V. REPURCHASE RIGHT
5.1 GRANT. The Corporation is hereby granted the right (the
"Repurchase Right"), exercisable at any time during the sixty (60)-day period
following the date the Optionee ceases for any reason to remain in Service or
(if later) during the sixty (60)-day period following the execution date of
this Agreement, to repurchase at the Option Price all or (at the discretion
of the Corporation and with the consent of the Optionee) any portion of the
Purchased Shares in which the Optionee has not acquired a vested interest in
accordance with the vesting provisions of paragraph 5.3 (such shares to be
hereinafter called the "Unvested Shares"). For purposes of this Agreement,
the Optionee shall be deemed to remain in Service for so long as the Optionee
continues to render periodic services to the Corporation or any parent or
subsidiary corporation, whether as an employee, a non-employee member of the
board of directors, or an independent contractor or consultant.
5.2 EXERCISE OF THE REPURCHASE RIGHT. The Repurchase Right
shall be exercisable by written notice delivered to the Owner of the Unvested
Shares prior to the expiration of the applicable sixty (60)-day period
specified in paragraph 5.1. The notice shall indicate the number of Unvested
Shares to be repurchased and the date on which the repurchase is to be
effected, such date to be not more than thirty (30) days after the date of
notice. To the extent one or more certificates representing Unvested Shares
may have been previously delivered out of escrow to the Owner, then Owner
shall, prior to the close of business on the date specified for the
repurchase, deliver to the Secretary of the Corporation the certificates
representing the Unvested Shares to be repurchased, each certificate to be
properly endorsed for transfer. The Corporation shall, concurrently with the
receipt of such stock certificates (either from escrow in accordance with
paragraph 7.3 or from Owner as herein provided), pay to Owner in cash or cash
equivalents (including the cancellation of any purchase-money indebtedness),
an amount equal to the Option Price previously paid for the Unvested Shares
which are to be repurchased.
5.3 TERMINATION OF THE REPURCHASE RIGHT. The Repurchase
Right shall terminate with respect to any Unvested Shares for which it is not
timely exercised under paragraph 5.2. In addition, the Repurchase Right shall
terminate, and cease to be exercisable, with respect to any and all Purchased
Shares in which the Optionee vests in accordance with the vesting schedule
specified in the Grant Notice. All Purchased Shares as to which the
Repurchase Right lapses shall, however, continue to be subject to (i) the
First Refusal Right of the Corporation and its assignees under Article VI,
(ii) the market stand-off provisions of paragraph 4.4 and (iii) the Special
Purchase Right under Article VIII.
5.4 AGGREGATE VESTING LIMITATION. If the Option is
exercised in more than one increment so that the Optionee is a party to one
or more other Stock Purchase Agreements ("Prior Purchase Agreements") which
are executed prior to the date of this Agreement, then the total number of
Purchased Shares as to which the Optionee shall be deemed to have a
fully-vested interest under this Agreement and all Prior Purchase Agreements
shall not exceed in the aggregate the number of Purchased Shares in which the
Optionee would otherwise at the time be vested, in accordance with the
vesting provisions of paragraph 5.3, had all the Purchased Shares been
acquired exclusively under this Agreement.
7
5.5 FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares shall be
repurchased by the Corporation. Accordingly, should the Repurchase Right
extend to a fractional share (in accordance with the vesting provisions of
paragraph 5.3) at the time the Optionee ceases Service, then such fractional
share shall be added to any fractional share in which the Optionee is at such
time vested in order to make one whole vested share no longer subject to the
Repurchase Right.
5.6 ADDITIONAL SHARES OR SUBSTITUTED SECURITIES. In the
event of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or other change
affecting the Corporation's outstanding Common Stock as a class effected
without receipt of consideration, then any new, substituted or additional
securities or other property (including money paid other than as a regular
cash dividend) which is by reason of any such transaction distributed with
respect to the Purchased Shares shall be immediately subject to the
Repurchase Right, but only to the extent the Purchased Shares are at the time
covered by such right. Appropriate adjustments to reflect the distribution of
such securities or property shall be made to the number of Purchased Shares
and Total Purchasable Shares hereunder and to the price per share to be paid
upon the exercise of the Repurchase Right in order to reflect the effect of
any such transaction upon the Corporation's capital structure; provided,
however, that the aggregate purchase price shall remain the same.
5.7 CORPORATE TRANSACTION.
A. The Repurchase Rights shall automatically
terminate and cease to be exercisable upon the consummation of any Corporate
Transaction, provided that such repurchase right shall not terminate if and
to the extent the Repurchase Rights are assigned to the successor corporation
(or parent thereof) in connection with such Corporate Transaction.
B. Repurchase rights which are assigned in
connection with a Corporate Transaction shall be exercisable with respect to
the property issued to the Optionee upon consummation of such Corporate
Transaction in exchange for the Common Stock held by the Optionee subject to
the repurchase rights immediately prior to the Corporate Transaction.
C. Any Repurchase Rights which are assigned
in a Corporate Transaction and do not otherwise become vested at that time,
shall automatically terminate and cease to be exercisable in the event the
Optionee's Service should subsequently terminate by reason of an Involuntary
Termination within twenty-four (24) months following the effective date of
such Corporate Transaction.
D. This Agreement shall not in any way
affect the right of the Corporation to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or
otherwise make changes in its capital or business structure or to merge,
consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its
business or assets.
VI. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL
6.1 GRANT. The Corporation is hereby granted rights of
first refusal (the "First Refusal Right"), exercisable in connection with any
proposed transfer of the Purchased Shares in
8
which the Optionee has vested in accordance with the vesting provisions of
Article V. For purposes of this Article VI, the term "transfer" shall include
any sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or other disposition for value of
the Purchased Shares intended to be made by the Owner, but shall not include
any of the permitted transfers under paragraph 4.1.
6.2 NOTICE OF INTENDED DISPOSITION. In the event the Owner
desires to accept a bona fide third-party offer for the transfer of any or
all of the Purchased Shares (the shares subject to such offer to be
hereinafter called the "Target Shares"), Owner shall promptly (i) deliver to
the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation written notice (the "Disposition
Notice") of the terms and conditions of the offer, including the purchase
price and the identity of the third-party offeror, and (ii) provide
satisfactory proof that the disposition of the Target Shares to such
third-party offeror would not be in contravention of the provisions set forth
in Articles II and IV of this Agreement.
6.3 EXERCISE OF RIGHT. The Corporation shall, for a period
of forty-five (45) days following receipt of the Disposition Notice, have the
right to repurchase any or all of the Target Shares specified in the
Disposition Notice upon the same terms and conditions specified therein or
upon terms and conditions which do not materially vary from those specified
therein. Such right shall be exercisable by delivery of written notice (the
"Exercise Notice") to Owner prior to the expiration of the forty-five
(45)-day exercise period. If such right is exercised with respect to all the
Target Shares specified in the Disposition Notice, then the Corporation (or
its assignees) shall effect the repurchase of the Target Shares, including
payment of the purchase price, not more than ten (10) business days after
delivery of the Exercise Notice; and at such time Owner shall deliver to the
Corporation the certificates repre-senting the Target Shares to be
repurchased, each certificate to be properly endorsed for transfer. To the
extent any of the Target Shares are at the time held in escrow under Article
VII, the certificates for such shares shall automatically be released from
escrow and delivered to the Corporation for purchase. Should the purchase
price specified in the Disposition Notice be payable in property other than
cash or evidences of indebtedness, the Corporation (or its assignees) shall
have the right to pay the purchase price in the form of cash equal in amount
to the value of such property. If the Owner and the Corporation (or its
assignees) cannot agree on such cash value within ten (10) days after the
Corporation's receipt of the Disposition Notice, the valuation shall be made
by an appraiser of recognized standing selected by the Owner and the
Corporation (or its assignees) or, if they cannot agree on an appraiser
within twenty (20) days after the Corporation's receipt of the Disposition
Notice, each shall select an appraiser of recognized standing and the two
appraisers shall designate a third appraiser of recognized standing, whose
appraisal shall be determinative of such value. The cost of such appraisal
shall be shared equally by the Owner and the Corporation. The closing shall
then be held on the later of (i) the tenth business day following delivery of
the Exercise Notice or (ii) the tenth business day after such cash valuation
shall have been made.
6.4 NON-EXERCISE OF RIGHT. In the event the Exercise Notice
is not given to Owner within forty-five (45) days following the date of the
Corporation's receipt of the Disposition Notice, Owner shall have a period
of thirty (30) days thereafter in which to sell or otherwise dispose of the
Target Shares to the third-party offeror identified in the Disposition Notice
upon terms and conditions (including the purchase price) no more favorable to
such third-
9
party offeror than those specified in the Disposition Notice; provided,
however, that any such sale or disposition must not be effected in
contravention of the provisions of Article II of this Agreement. To the
extent any of the Target Shares are at the time held in escrow under Article
VII, the certificates for such shares shall automatically be released from
escrow and surrendered to the Owner. The third-party offeror shall acquire
the Target Shares free and clear of the Corporation's Repurchase Right under
Article V and the Corporation's First Refusal Right hereunder, but the
acquired shares shall remain subject to (i) the securities law restrictions
of paragraph 2.2(a) and (ii) the market stand-off provisions of paragraph
4.4. In the event Owner does not effect such sale or disposition of the
Target Shares within the specified thirty (30)-day period, the Corporation's
First Refusal Right shall continue to be applicable to any subsequent
disposition of the Target Shares by Owner until such right lapses in
accordance with paragraph 6.7.
6.5 PARTIAL EXERCISE OF RIGHT. In the event the Corporation
(or its assignees) makes a timely exercise of the First Refusal Right with
respect to a portion, but not all, of the Target Shares specified in the
Disposition Notice, Owner shall have the option, exercisable by written
notice to the Corporation delivered within thirty (30) days after the date of
the Disposition Notice, to effect the sale of the Target Shares pursuant to
one of the following alternatives:
(i) sale or other disposition of all the
Target Shares to the third-party offeror identified in the Disposition
Notice, but in full compliance with the requirements of paragraph 6.4,
as if the Corporation did not exercise the First Refusal Right
hereunder; or
(ii) sale to the Corporation (or its
assignees) of the portion of the Target Shares which the Corporation
(or its assignees) has elected to purchase, such sale to be effected in
substantial conformity with the provisions of paragraph 6.3.
Failure of Owner to deliver timely notification to
the Corporation under this paragraph 6.5 shall be deemed to be an election by
Owner to sell the Target Shares pursuant to alternative (i) above.
6.6 RECAPITALIZATION/MERGER.
(a) In the event of any stock dividend, stock
split, recapitalization or other transaction affecting the Corporation's
outstanding Common Stock as a class effected without receipt of
consideration, then any new, substituted or additional securities or other
property which is by reason of such transaction distributed with respect to
the Purchased Shares shall be immediately subject to the Corporation's First
Refusal Right hereunder, but only to the extent the Purchased Shares are at
the time covered by such right.
(b) In the event of any of the following
transactions:
(i) a merger or consolidation
in which the Corporation is not the surviving entity,
10
(ii) a sale, transfer or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the Corporation's assets,
(iii) a reverse merger in which
the Corporation is the surviving entity but in which the Corporation's
outstanding voting securities are transferred in whole or in part to
person or persons other than those who held such securities immediately
prior to the merger, or
(iv) any transaction effected
primarily to change the State in which the Corporation is incorporated,
or to create a holding company structure,
the Corporation's First Refusal Right
shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to the new capital
stock or other property received in exchange for the Purchased Shares in
consummation of the transaction but only to the extent the Purchased Shares
are at the time covered by such right.
6.7 LAPSE. The First Refusal Right under this Article VI
shall lapse and cease to have effect upon the earliest to occur of (i) the
first date on which shares of the Corporation's Common Stock are held of
record by more than five hundred (500) persons, (ii) a determination is made
by the Corporation's Board of Directors that a public market exists for the
outstanding shares of the Corporation's Common Stock, or (iii) a firm
commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the 1933 Act, covering the offer and sale of the
Corporation's Common Stock in the aggregate amount of at least $5,000,000.
However, the market stand-off provisions of paragraph 4.4 shall continue to
remain in full force and effect following the lapse of the First Refusal
Right hereunder.
VII. ESCROW
7.1 DEPOSIT. Upon issuance, the certificates for any
Unvested Shares purchased hereunder shall be deposited in escrow with the
Corporate Secretary of the Corporation- to be held in accordance with the
provisions of this Article VII. Each deposited certificate shall be
accompanied by a duly-executed Assignment Separate from Certificate in the
form of Exhibit I. The deposited certificates, together with any other assets
or securities from time to time deposited with the Corporate Secretary
pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement, shall remain in escrow until
such time or times as the certificates (or other assets and securities) are
to be released or otherwise surrendered for cancellation in accordance with
paragraph 7.3. Upon delivery of the certificates (or other assets and
securities) to the Corporate Secretary of the Corporation, the Owner shall be
issued an instrument of deposit acknowledging the number of Unvested Shares
(or other assets and securities) delivered in escrow.
7.2 RECAPITALIZATION. All regular cash dividends on the
Unvested Shares (or other securities at the time held in escrow) shall be
paid directly to the Owner and shall not be held in escrow. However, in the
event of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or other change
affecting the Corporation's outstanding Common Stock as a class effected
without receipt of consideration or in the event of a Corporate Transaction,
any new, substituted or additional
11
securities or other property which is by reason of such transaction
distributed with respect to the Unvested Shares shall be immediately
delivered to the Corporate Secretary to be held in escrow under this Article
VII, but only to the extent the Unvested Shares are at the time subject to
the escrow requirements of paragraph 7.1.
7.3 RELEASE/SURRENDER. The Unvested Shares, together with
any other assets or securities held in escrow hereunder, shall be subject to
the following terms and conditions relating to their release from escrow or
their surrender to the Corporation for repurchase and cancellation:
(i) Should the Corporation (or its
assignees) elect to exercise the Repurchase Right under Article V with
respect to any Unvested Shares, then the escrowed certificates for such
Unvested Shares (together with any other assets or securities issued
with respect thereto) shall be delivered to the Corporation
concurrently with the payment to the Owner, in cash or cash equivalent
(including the cancellation of any purchase-money indebtedness), of an
amount equal to the aggregate Option Price for such Unvested Shares,
and the Owner shall cease to have any further rights or claims with
respect to such Unvested Shares (or other assets or securities
attributable to such Unvested Shares).
(ii) Should the Corporation (or its
assignees) elect to exercise its First Refusal Right under Article VI
with respect to any vested Target Shares held at the time in escrow
hereunder, then the escrowed certificates for such Target Shares
(together with any other assets or securities attributable thereto)
shall, concurrently with the payment of the paragraph 6.3 purchase
price for such Target Shares to the Owner, be surrendered to the
Corporation, and the Owner shall cease to have any further rights or
claims with respect to such Target Shares (or other assets or
securities).
(iii) Should the Corporation (or its
assignees) elect not to exercise its First Refusal Right under Article
VI with respect to any Target Shares held at the time in escrow
hereunder, then the escrowed certificates for such Target Shares
(together with any other assets or securities attributable thereto)
shall be surrendered to the Owner for disposition in accordance with
provisions of paragraph 6.4.
(iv) As the interest of the Optionee in
the Unvested Shares (or any other assets or securities attributable
thereto) vests in accordance with the provisions of Article V, the
certificates for such vested shares (as well as all other vested assets
and securities) shall be released from escrow and delivered to the
Owner in accordance with the following schedule:
a. The initial release of
vested shares (or other vested assets and securities) from
escrow shall be effected within thirty (30) days following the
expiration of the initial twelve (12)-month period measured from
the Grant Date.
12
b. Subsequent releases of
vested shares (or other vested assets and securities) from
escrow shall be effected at semi-annual intervals thereafter,
with the first such semi-annual release to occur eighteen (18)
months after the Grant Date.
c. Upon the Optionee's
cessation of Service, any escrowed Purchased Shares (or other
assets or securities) in which the Optionee is at the time
vested shall be promptly released from escrow.
d. Upon any earlier
termination of the Corporation-'s Repurchase Right in accordance
with the applicable provisions of Article V, any Purchased
Shares (or other assets or securities) at the time held in
escrow hereunder shall promptly be released to the Owner as
fully-vested shares or other property.
(v) All Purchased Shares (or other
assets or securities) released from escrow in accordance with the
provisions of subparagraph (iv) above shall nevertheless remain subject
to (I) the Corporation's First Refusal Right under Article VI until
such right lapses pursuant to paragraph 6.7, (II) the market stand-off
provisions of paragraph 4.4 until such provisions terminate in
accordance therewith and (III) the Special Purchase Right under Article
VIII.
VIII. MARITAL DISSOLUTION OR LEGAL SEPARATION
8.1 GRANT. In connection with the dissolution of the
Optionee's marriage or the legal separation of the Optionee and the
Optionee's spouse, the Corporation shall have the right (the "Special
Purchase Right"), exercisable at any time during the thirty (30)-day period
following the Corporation's receipt of the required Dissolution Notice under
paragraph 8.2, to purchase from the Optionee's spouse, in accordance with the
provisions of paragraph 8.3, all or any portion of the Purchased Shares which
would otherwise be awarded to such spouse in settlement of any community
property or other marital property rights such spouse may have in such shares.
8.2 NOTICE OF DECREE OR AGREEMENT. The Optionee shall
promptly provide the Secretary of the Corporation with written notice (the
"Dissolution Notice") of (i) the entry of any judicial decree or order
resolving the property rights of the Optionee and the Optionee's spouse in
connection with their marital dissolu-tion or legal separation or (ii) the
execution of any contract or agreement relating to the distribution or
division of such property rights. The Dissolution Notice shall be accompanied
by a copy of the actual decree of dissolution or settlement agreement between
the Optionee and the Optionee's spouse which provides for the award to the
spouse of one or more Purchased Shares in settlement of any community
property or other marital property rights such spouse may have in such shares.
8.3 EXERCISE OF SPECIAL PURCHASE RIGHT. The Special
Purchase Right shall be exercisable by delivery of written notice (the
"Purchase Notice") to the Optionee and the Optionee's spouse within thirty
(30) days after the Corporation's receipt of the Dissolution Notice. The
Purchase Notice shall indicate the number of shares to be purchased by the
13
Corporation, the date such purchase is to be effected (such date to be not
less than five (5) business days, nor more than ten (10) business days, after
the date of the Purchase Notice), and the fair market value to be paid for
such Purchased Shares. The Optionee (or the Optionee's spouse, to the extent
such spouse has physical possession of the Purchased Shares) shall, prior to
the close of business on the date specified for the purchase, deliver to the
Corporate Secretary of the Corporation the certificates representing the
shares to be purchased, each certificate to be properly endorsed for
transfer. To the extent any of the shares to be purchased by the Corporation
are at the time held in escrow under Article VII, the certificates for such
shares shall be promptly delivered out of escrow to the Corporation. The
Corporation shall, concurrently with the receipt of the stock certificates,
pay to the Optionee's spouse (in cash or cash equivalents) an amount equal to
the fair market value specified for such shares in the Purchase Notice.
If the Optionee's spouse does not agree with the
fair market value specified for the shares in the Purchase Notice, then the
spouse shall promptly notify the Corporation in writing of such disagreement
and the fair market value of such shares shall thereupon be determined by an
appraiser of recognized standing selected by the Corporation and the spouse.
If they cannot agree on an appraiser within twenty (20) days after the date
of the Purchase Notice, each shall select an appraiser of recognized
standing, and the two appraisers shall designate a third appraiser of
recognized standing whose appraisal shall be determinative of such value. The
cost of the appraisal shall be shared equally by the Corporation and the
Optionee's spouse. The closing shall then be held on the fifth business day
following the completion of such appraisal; PROVIDED, however, that if the
appraised value is more than fifteen percent (15%) greater than the fair
market value specified for the shares in the Purchase Notice, the Corporation
shall have the right, exercisable prior to the expiration of such five
(5)-business-day period, to rescind the exercise of the Special Purchase

SPECIAL PROTECTIVE ELECTION PURSUANT TO SECTION 83(b) OF THE
INTERNAL REVENUE CODE WITH RESPECT TO PROPERTY ACQUIRED UPON EXERCISE OF AN
INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION
The property described in the above Section 83(b) election is comprised of
shares of common stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an incentive
stock option under Section 422 of the Code. Accordingly, it is the intent of
the Taxpayer to utilize this election to achieve the following tax results:
1. The purpose of this election is to have the alternative
minimum taxable income attributable to the purchased shares measured by the
amount by which the fair market value of such shares at the time of their
transfer to the Taxpayer exceeds the purchase price paid for the shares. In
the absence of this election, such alternative minimum taxable income would
be measured by the spread between the fair market value of the purchased
shares and the purchase price which exists on the various lapse dates in
effect for the forfeiture restric-tions applicable to such shares. The
election is to be effective to the full extent permitted under the Internal
Revenue Code.
2. Section 421(a)(1) of the Code expressly excludes from
income any excess of the fair market value of the purchased shares over the
amount paid for such shares. Accordingly, this election is also intended to
be effective in the event there is a "disqualifying disposition" of the
shares, within the meaning of Section 421(b) of the Code, which would
otherwise render the provisions of Section 83(a) of the Code applicable at
that time. Consequently, the Taxpayer hereby elects to have the amount of
disqualifying disposition income measured by the excess of the fair market
value of the purchased shares on the date of transfer to the Taxpayer over
the amount paid for such shares. Since Section 421(a) presently applies to
the shares which are the subject of this Section 83(b) election, no taxable
income is actually recognized for regular tax purposes at this time, and no
income taxes are payable, by the Taxpayer as a result of this election.
This form should be filed with the Internal Revenue Service Center with which
taxpayer files his/her Federal income tax returns. The filing must be made
within 30 days after the execution date of the Stock Purchase Agreement.
NOTE: PAGE 2 SHOULD BE ATTACHED ONLY IF YOU ARE EXERCISING AN INCENTIVE

5. EQUIPMENT SELECTION; DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES; WAIVERS.
(a) Lessee acknowledges, represents and warrants that Lessee has made
the selection of Equipment based on Lessee's own judgment, and expressly
disclaims any reliance upon statements made by Lessor or Lessor's agents,
employees or salespersons.
(b) LESSOR MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS
TO THE CAPACITY, CONDITION, DESIGN, DURABILITY, MATERIAL, MERCHANTABILITY,
PERFORMANCE, QUALITY, SUITABILITY, WORKMANSHIP OR VALUE OF THE EQUIPMENT OR ITS
FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR THAT THE EQUIPMENT WILL SATISFY THE
REQUIREMENTS OF ANY LAW, RULE, REGULATION, SPECIFICATION OR CONTRACT, OR ANY
OTHER REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER WITH RESPECT
TO THE EQUIPMENT OR ANY ASSOCIATED ITEM OR ANY ASPECT THEREOF. AS TO THE LESSOR,
LESSEE LEASES THE EQUIPMENT "AS IS".
(c) Lessee acknowledge that (i) Lessor is neither the manufacturer of
the Equipment nor a manufacturer's agent, supplier or dealer, and has no
familiarity with the Equipment; and (ii) Lessor shall have no obligation to
assemble, install, test, adjust or service the Equipment.
(d) Lessor shall not be liable, to Lessee or otherwise, to any extent
whatsoever, for the selection, quality, condition, merchantability, suitability,
fitness, operation or performance of the Equipment. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, Lessor shall not be liable, to Lessee or otherwise,
for any liability, claim, loss, damage or expense of any kind or nature
(including strict negligent liability in tort) caused, directly or indirectly,
by the Equipment or any inadequacy thereof for any purpose, or any deficiency or
defect therein, or the use or maintenance thereof, or any repairs, servicing or
adjustments thereto; or any delay in providing or failure to provide any part
thereof, or any interruption or loss of service thereof, or any loss of
business, or any damage whatsoever and howsoever caused.
(e) REGARDLESS OF CAUSE, LESSEE WILL NOT ASSERT ANY CLAIM WHATSOEVER
AGAINST LESSOR FOR LOSS OF ANTICIPATORY PROFITS OR ANY OTHER INDIRECT, SPECIAL
OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. IT IS EXPRESSLY UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED THAT EACH AND
EVERY PROVISION OF THIS
AGREEMENT WHICH PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF
WARRANTIES OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES, IS INTENDED BY THE PARTIES TO BE
SEVERABLE FROM ANY OTHER PROVISION AND IS A SEPARABLE AND INDEPENDENT ELEMENT
OF RISK ALLOCATION AND IS INTENDED TO BE ENFORCED AS SUCH.
(f) If the Equipment fails to comply with any representation or
warranty made by the supplier or manufacturer thereof, or is defective or
improperly assembled or installed or otherwise unsatisfactory for any reason,
Lessee shall make claim on account thereof against the supplier or manufacturer
thereof, and Lessee shall nevertheless pay all rent and perform all other
obligations under this Master Lease and all Equipment Schedules without
asserting any claim against Lessor. Lessor hereby assigns to Lessee, without
recourse and solely for the purpose of prosecuting such a claim, all rights that
Lessor may have against the supplier and manufacturer of Equipment for breach of
warranty or other representations with respect to the Equipment; provided,
however that this assignment shall not preclude Lessor, in its sole discretion
from asserting and prosecuting such a claim. Lessee shall indemnify and hold
Lessor harmless from and against any and all claims, costs, expenses, damages,
losses and liabilities incurred or suffered by Lessor as a result or incident to
any such action by Lessee for breach of warranty or other representations with
respect to the Equipment.
(g) Lessor makes no representation or warranty as to the treatment of
this Master Lease or any Equipment Schedule for tax or accounting purposes or
otherwise.
(h) Lessee hereby waives its rights and remedies under the Uniform
Commercial Code Section 2A-508 through 2A-522 with respect to Lessee's right to
cancel any Equipment Schedule, reject any of the Equipment, recover damages or
any other rights and remedies provided thereunder in connection with any default
by Lessor or any other circumstances therein provided.
6. TITLE AND ASSIGNMENT.
(a) Nothing contained in this Master Lease, or in any Equipment
Schedule, shall give or convey to Lessee any right, title or interest in or to
the Equipment, or any additions, upgrades, accessions, or improvements thereto,
except as a Lessee as set forth in this Master Lease and such Equipment
Schedule, and Lessee represents and agrees that Lessee shall hold the Equipment
subject and subordinate to the rights of the owner thereof. The Equipment is and
at all times shall remain the property of Lessor (or Lessor's successor in
interest), and except as expressly set forth in this Master Lease or any
Equipment Schedule, Lessee shall have no right, title, equity or interest in the
Equipment and no right or option to purchase or otherwise acquire title to or
ownership of the Equipment. Lessee shall, at Lessee's sole cost and expense: (i)
defend and protect the ownership of, title to, and interest in the Equipment of
Lessor, Lessor's successors in interest, and any assignee or secured party,
against all parties claiming against or through Lessee; (ii) keep the Equipment
free and clear from any legal process, liens, claims, demands and encumbrances
(except those incurred by Lessor); and (iii) give Lessor prompt written notice
of any legal process, liens, claims, demands and encumbrances made by any party
(except Lessor) with respect to the Equipment. Lessee shall, and Lessor may on
behalf of Lessee, at Lessee's expense, execute and file such financing
statements, applications for registration and other documentation as Lessor
shall require for the purpose of protecting or perfecting the interest of
Lessor, or any assignee, transferee or secured party, in the Equipment.
(b) Lessee shall, at Lessee's expense, affix to the Equipment such
labels, signs or other devices as Lessor may supply to identify Lessor as the
owner and Lessor of the Equipment. Lessee authorizes Lessor to insert in any
Equipment Schedule and in any financing statement or other documents the serial
numbers and other identification data of the Equipment when determined by
Lessor. The Equipment is and at all times shall remain personal property
regardless of any attachment or affixation of the Equipment to any real property
or improvements thereon.
(c) LESSEE SHALL NOT, WITHOUT LESSOR'S PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT, (i)
ASSIGN THIS MASTER LEASE OR ANY EQUIPMENT SCHEDULE OR ANY INTEREST HEREIN OR
THEREIN, (ii) ENTER INTO ANY SUBLEASE, LOAN OR SIMILAR ARRANGEMENT WITH RESPECT
TO THE EQUIPMENT, OR (iii) TRANSFER, ASSIGN, CONVEY, ENCUMBER, PLEDGE OR
OTHERWISE DISPOSE OF ANY EQUIPMENT OR ANY INTEREST THEREIN; AND ANY ATTEMPT BY
LESSEE TO DO ANY OF THE FOREGOING WITHOUT LESSOR'S PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT SHALL
BE VOID.
(d) Lessee shall keep, maintain and use the Equipment only at the place
designated on the Equipment Schedule, and shall not move the Equipment to any
other location without the Lessor's prior written consent.
(e) This Master Lease and any rights of Lessor hereunder and under any
Equipment Schedule shall be assignable by Lessor without notice to or the
consent of Lessee. Lessee acknowledges and understands that the terms and
conditions of each Equipment Schedule have been fixed by Lessor in anticipation
of Lessor's ability to sell and assign its interest or grant a security interest
under each Equipment Schedule and the Equipment listed therein in whole or in
part to a security assignee (the "Secured Party") for the purpose of either
assigning: (i) Lessee's obligation to pay rent pursuant to such Equipment
Schedule (Lessor having transferred the right to receive such rent to the
Secured Party), or (ii) securing a loan to Lessor. Lessor may also sell and
assign its rights as owner and lessor of the Equipment under any Equipment
Schedule to an assignee (the "Assignee") which may be represented by a bank or a
trust company acting as a trustee (the "Owner Trustee") for the Assignee. After
such assignments the term Lessor shall mean, as the case may be, such Assignee
or Owner Trustee and any Secured Party (collectively "Lessor Transferee").
Lessee acknowledges and agrees that:
(1) Any such Lessor Transferee shall have and be entitled to exercise any and
all discretion, rights and powers of Lessor hereunder or under any
Equipment Schedule, but such Lessor Transferee shall not be obligated to
perform any of Lessor's obligations hereunder or under any Equipment
Schedule; provided, however, that such Lessor Transferee shall not
disturb Lessee's quiet and peaceful possession of the Equipment and use
thereof for its intended purpose during the terms hereof so long as
Lessee is not in default of any provision hereof and such Lessor
Transferee continues to timely receive all amounts of [illegible] payable
under such Equipment Schedule;
(2) Lessee will pay all rent and any and all other amounts payable by Lessee
under any Equipment Schedule to such Lessor Transferee, notwithstanding
and Lessee hereby waivers any defense or claim of whatever nature,
whether by reason of breach of such Equipment Schedule or otherwise,
which Lessee may or might now or hereafter have as against Lessor or any
prior Lessor Transferee (Lessee reserving its right to have recourse
directly against Lessor on account of any such defense or claim); and
(3) Subject to and without impairment of Lessee's leasehold rights in and to
the Equipment, Lessee holds the Equipment for such Lessor Transferee to
the extent of such Lessor Transferee's rights therein.
7. NET LEASE, TAXES AND FEES.
(a) Lessor and Lessee acknowledge and agree that each Equipment
Schedule constitutes a net lease and that Lessee's obligation to pay all rent
and any and all amounts payable by Lessee under any Equipment Schedule shall be
absolute and unconditional, and shall not be subject to any abatement,
reduction, setoff, defense, counterclaim, interruption, deferment or recoupment
for any reason whatsoever; and that such payments shall be and continue to be
payable in all events.
(b) Lessee shall, at Lessee's sole cost and expense and in addition to
the rent due under any Equipment Schedule, promptly pay all taxes, assessments,
license fees, permit fees, registration fees, fines, interest, penalties and all
other governmental charges (including without limitation income, gross receipts,
sales, use, excise, personal property, ad valorem, stamp, documentary and other
taxes), whether levied, assessed or imposed on Lessee, Lessor, the Equipment or
otherwise, relating to the Equipment or the delivery, leasing, operations,
ownership, possession, purchase, registration rental, sales or use thereof
during the term of any Equipment Schedule, or the interest of Lessee in the
Equipment or under any Equipment Schedule, or the rental or other payments
thereunder or earnings arising therefrom (excepting only taxes on Lessor's net
income). Lessee shall file all returns required in connection therewith and
shall promptly furnish copies to Lessor. Lessee shall reimburse Lessor for any
such taxes paid by Lessor within ten (10) days of receipt of Lessor's invoice
therefor. Any applicable sales tax will be paid to the manufacturer,
manufacturer's agent, supplier, dealer or appropriate taxing agency by Lessor.
Where applicable, Lessee acknowledges that such tax may have been included in
calculating lease payment.
8. CARE, USE, MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR, AND INSPECTION BY LESSOR.
(a) Lessee shall, at Lessee's sole expense, at all times during the
term of such Equipment Schedule and until return of the Equipment to Lessor, (i)
maintain the Equipment in good operating order, repair, condition, appearance
and protect the Equipment from deterioration, and provide all accessories,
upgrades, repairs, replacement parts and service required therefor; (ii) enter
into and maintain a maintenance contract with the manufacturer of the Equipment
or, with the prior written consent of Lessor, with such other party as shall be
acceptable to Lessor, and shall provide Lessor with a copy of such contract and
all supplements thereto; (iii) use the Equipment in a careful, proper and lawful
manner in accordance with standards, specifications or instructions issued by
the manufacturer, and provide necessary site preparation, supplies, energy and
personnel; (iv) comply with all of the laws, ordinances, rules, regulations and
other requirements relating to the installation, possession, use or maintenance
of the Equipment, including the requirements of any applicable insurance policy
or warranty; (v) obtain and comply with the requirements of all

use or maintenance of the Equipment; and (vi) purchase, or permit Lessor to
purchase, any and all additions, improvements, upgrades (as and when any
upgrades may become available) and maintenance contracts associated with such
upgrades, or accessions to any of the Equipment which Lessor may permit or
require Lessee to acquire or which Lessor may, at its option, elect to
acquire, with the cost of any and all such additions, improvements, upgrades,
maintenance contracts or accessions to be treated as additional original
equipment cost with respect to the applicable items of Equipment and which
additional cost shall be amortized as additional rental payments by
increasing the monthly rental amount payable under Section 3 hereof by the
amount corresponding to the amount which would be payable as monthly rent
hereunder as if such additional cost constituted a portion of the original
equipment cost of the applicable Equipment for Equipment to be leased under
the applicable Equipment Schedule for a term equal to the remaining lease
term of the applicable Equipment Schedule.
(b) Unless Lessor otherwise consents in writing, Lessee shall not: (i)
part with possession of or control over the Equipment; (ii) permit any party
other than Lessee and Lessee's qualified employees to operate the Equipment;
(iii) permit any nonqualified party to repair or service the Equipment; (iv)
permit the Equipment to be used for personal, family, household or agricultural
purposes; or (v) make any additions, alterations or improvements to the
Equipment other than as required or permitted by the terms of this Master Lease.
All repairs, replacement parts, alterations, additions, improvements, upgrades
and accessions to any of the Equipment, whether or not any of the foregoing was
authorized, required, financed or purchased by Lessor, shall become the property
of Lessor.
(c) Upon the request of Lessor, Lessee shall at reasonable times during
business hours make the Equipment available to Lessor for inspection at the
place where it is normally located and shall make Lessee's log and maintenance
records pertaining to the Equipment available to Lessor for inspection.
9. LESSEE'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.
Lessee hereby represents, warrants and agrees that, with respect to
this Master Lease and each Equipment Schedule:
(a) The execution, delivery and performance thereof by Lessee have been

(b) Each individual executing such was duly authorized to do so.
(c) This Master Lease and each Equipment Schedule constitute legal,
valid and binding agreements of Lessee enforceable in accordance with their
terms.
(d) The Equipment is personal property and when subjected to use by

obligators, guarantors and parties whose contracts with Lessee are used as
additional collateral under this Master Lease to deliver to Lessor audited or
reviewed financial statements for each of such party's most recent fiscal years
ended, tax returns and unaudited financial statements certified by such party
for the most recent quarter ended, consisting of at least a balance sheet,
income statements and statements of changes in financial position, and any other
information requested by Lessor from time to time, prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.
(f) Lessee shall provide any and all monthly operating statistics or
data and shall use its best efforts to obtain from any party benefiting from the
use of the Equipment through services provided by the Lessee any and all
operating statistics, data, or information requested by Lessor from time to
time.
(g) The execution, delivery and performance of this Master Lease and
each Equipment Schedule will not violate any law or regulation applicable to
Lessee, or cause a default under any agreement to which Lessee is a party or is
subject.
10. DELIVERY AND RETURN OF EQUIPMENT.
Lessee hereby assumes the full expense of transportation and in-transit
insurance to Lessee's premises and installation thereat of the Equipment. Upon
termination (by expiration or otherwise) of each Equipment Schedule, Lessee
shall, pursuant to Lessor's instructions and at Lessee's expense (including
without limitation expenses of transportation and in-transit insurance), return
the Equipment to Lessor in the same operating order, repair, condition and
appearance as when received, less normal depreciation and wear and tear. Lessee
shall have the Equipment deinstalled and removed from its location only by the
manufacturer of the Equipment, or by such other party as shall have been
previously approved in writing by Lessor. The manufacturer or such other
preapproved party shall certify in writing to Lessor at the time of such
deinstallation that the Equipment includes all appropriate or required upgrades
and that it is in good working order. Lessee shall transport the Equipment by
means and return the Equipment to Lessor at such address all as shall be
directed by Lessor. Lessee shall bear all costs of deinstallation, removal and
return of the Equipment, including all costs as may be incurred by Lessee or
Lessor to acquire the upgrades required under the terms of this Master Lease, to
service and repair the Equipment and to otherwise put the Equipment in the
condition required under this Section 10.
11. INSURANCE.
During the term hereof and until return of the Equipment to Lessor,
Lessee shall, at Lessee's expense: (i) maintain insurance covering damage,
destruction, loss or theft of the Equipment from any cause whatsoever for not
less than an amount equal to the greater of the replacement value or the amount
calculated pursuant to clause (vi) of Section 15(b) hereof; (ii) maintain public
liability (including liability with respect to the use of the Equipment),
professional liability insurance (covering Lessee and its employees and any and
all other parties as may have possession of or as may operate any of the
Equipment), and property damage insurance in an amount satisfactory to Lessor;
(iii) maintain, if applicable as determined in the sole discretion of Lessor,
business interruption and automobile insurance (where the Equipment constitutes
mobile magnetic resonance imaging equipment or other mobile equipment); and (iv)
promptly notify Lessor of any actual or alleged damage, destruction, liability,
loss or theft relating to the Equipment or the use or operation thereof. All
insurance shall be in form, substance and amount satisfactory to Lessor and/or
Lessor's Transferee, shall contain a lender's form endorsement with waiver of
breach of warranty clause (form 438-BFU or its equivalent), and shall be issued
by insurers acceptable to Lessor, and shall name Lessor or any Lessor Transferee
as loss payee with respect to all policies of property insurance and as an
additional insured with respect to all other policies of insurance. Lessee shall
obtain endorsements to all such policies of insurance which shall provide that
any amendment or cancellation of any such policy shall not be effective unless
Lessor shall have been given thirty (30) days' prior written notice of any such
intended amendment or cancellation. Self-insurance is unacceptable unless Lessor
shall so provide upon its prior written consent. Lessee shall deliver to Lessor
originals or certified copies of such policies, certificates of coverage
thereunder and loss payee, additional insured, [illegible] notice of amendment
or cancellation endorsements. In addition, as collateral security for Lessee's
obligations hereunder, and under the Equipment Schedules, Lessee hereby assigns,
transfers and conveys to Lessor all of Lessee's right, title and interest in and
to all of the foregoing policies of insurance and the insurance coverage
provided thereunder and Lessee shall deliver and cause each insurer under each
of such policies of insurance to deliver to Lessor assignments of such policies
and coverage with assignments shall be in form and substance satisfactory to
Lessor.
12. RISK OF LOSS.
During the term of each Equipment Schedule, and until return of the
Equipment to Lessor, Lessee shall bear all risk of damage, destruction, loss or
theft of the Equipment from any cause whatsoever. No damage, destruction, loss
or theft of the Equipment or delay in payment or deficiency or absence of
insurance proceeds, and no unavailability or delay in obtaining supplies, parts
or service for the Equipment or failure of the Equipment to function for any
cause whatsoever, and no change in laws or regulations governing or restricting
the use of the Equipment (including the future enactment of any laws or
regulations prohibiting the use of the Equipment), shall release Lessee of the
obligation to pay rent or any other obligation hereunder. Upon the occurrence of
any reparable damage, Lessee shall promptly make such repairs and restore the
Equipment to good repair, condition and working order. Upon the occurrence of
any irreparable damage, destruction for loss of the Equipment, Lessee shall, at
Lessor's option: (i) replace the Equipment with like equipment in good repair,
condition and working order with documentation creating clear title thereto in
Lessor; or (ii) pay Lessor the amounts required under Section 15 of this Master
Lease to the same extent as though a default had occurred hereunder. Subject to
such conditions as Lessor may require, any insurance proceeds paid to Lessor as
a result of any damage, destruction, loss or theft of the Equipment shall be
applied to Lessee's obligations hereunder, provided that if the Equipment is not
repaired or replaced as provided above, such insurance proceeds shall be applied
first to Lessor's expected residual interest in the Equipment. Lessor shall have
no obligation to collect or pursue any claim arising from any damage,
destruction, loss or theft of the Equipment, including any claim under any
applicable insurance policy.
13. INDEMNITY.
Lessee shall, at Lessee's sole cost and expense, indemnify, hold
harmless and defend Lessor and its agents, employees, officers and directors,
and its successors in interest from and against any and all claims, actions,
suits, proceedings, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities, including
attorney's fees, arising out of, connected with, resulting from or relating to
the Equipment or the condition, delivery, leasing, location, maintenance,
manufacture, operation, ownership, possession, purchase, repair, repossession,
return, sale, selection, service or use thereof, including without limitation:
(i) claims involving latent or other defects (whether or not discoverable by
Lessee or Lessor), (ii) claims for trademark, patent or copyright infringement,
and (iii) claims for injury or death to persons or damage to property or loss of
business or anticipatory profits, whether resulting from acts or omissions of
Lessee or Lessor or otherwise.
Lessee shall give Lessor prompt written notice of any claim or liability
covered by this section. The indemnities under this section shall survive the
satisfaction of all other obligations of Lessee herein and the termination of
this Master Lease or any Equipment Schedule.
14. SECURITY DEPOSIT.
For the purpose of securing all of Lessee's obligations under this
Master Lease and each Equipment Schedule, Lessee grants Lessor a security
interest in any security deposit described in any Equipment Schedule. Any such
security deposit may be commingled with other funds and shall be held without
interest to Lessee. Upon default under this Master Lease or any Equipment
Schedule, Lessor may, but shall not be obligated to, apply any such security
deposit to any obligation of Lessee under this Master Lease or any Equipment
Schedule, in which event Lessee shall promptly restore the amount thereof on
demand. Upon compliance by Lessee with all terms of this Master Lease and each
Equipment Schedule Lessor shall, at the end of the term of each Equipment
Schedule and the return of the Equipment to Lessor as provided herein, refund to
Lessee the balance of any security deposit pertaining to such Equipment
Schedule.
15. DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.

or party controlling, directly or indirectly, Lessee or any direct or indirect
subsidiary or affiliate of Lessee, to perform any obligation under any agreement
between Lessee or any such subsidiary; affiliate, owner or controlling party on
the one hand, and Lessor, any Lessor Transferee, or any direct or indirect
subsidiary or affiliate of Lessor or any Lessor Transferee, on the other hand,
which agreement shall include, without limitation, any master lease, any
equipment schedule, any promissory note or other debt obligation of Lessee to
Lessor; or (ix) assignment for the benefit of creditors or bulk transfer of
assets by, or insolvency, cessation of business, termination of existence, death
or dissolution of Lessee or any guarantor. As used in this Master Lease, the
term "guarantor" shall include an guarantor of this Master Lease or any
Equipment Schedule, and any owner of any property given as security for Lessee's

Lease to be immediately due and payable; (ii) require Lessee to assemble the
Equipment and make it available to Lessor at a place designated by Lessor; (iii)
take and hold possession of the Equipment and render the Equipment unusable, and
for this purpose enter and remove the Equipment from any premises where the same

on credit or otherwise, with or without representations or warranties, and upon
such terms as shall be acceptable to Lessor; (v) use and occupy the premises of
Lessee for the purpose of taking, holding, reconditioning, displaying, selling
or leasing the Equipment, without cost to Lessor or liability to Lessor; (vi)
demand, sue for and recover from Lessee the sum of (A) all rent and other
amounts due hereunder, plus, as liquidated damages for loss of a bargain and not
as a penalty, and in lieu of any further payments of rent for the Equipment, an
amount equal to Lessor's Return for such Equipment ("Lessor's Return" shall mean
if the applicable Equipment Schedule provides for Stipulated Loss Values, the
applicable Stipulated Loss Value, and, otherwise, the present value, discounted
at five percent (5%), of all unpaid rent payments to become due during the
remaining lease term; (B) all late charges provided in this Master Lease or any
Equipment Schedule; (C) all expenses, including attorney's fees, of Lessor or

herein including, without limitation, damages arising from Lessee's failure to
maintain the Equipment as provided herein. Any sale or lease of the Equipment by
Lessor after default shall be free and clear of any interest of Lessee.
(c) The rights and remedies of Lessor hereunder are in addition to all
other rights and remedies provided by law. All of Lessor's rights and remedies
are cumulative and not exclusive, and may be exercised separately or
concurrently and in such order and manner as Lessor may determine. The exercise
of any one remedy shall not be deemed to be an election of such remedy or to

AMENDMENT TO LOAN AGREEMENT
THIS AMENDMENT TO LOAN AGREEMENT (the "Amendment") dated as of May 13,
1994 amends the Loan Agreement dated as of September 1, 1993 by and between
AURORA TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION, a California corporation, with principal
offices at 7408 Trade Street, San Diego, California 92121-2410 (the "Company"),
and GERALD G. LOEHR, ("Lender"), as amended by the Addendum to Loan Agreement
dated as of January 1, 1994, February 17, 1994 and April 14, 1994 (collectively,
the "Original Agreement").
WHEREAS, Lender together with JACK F. BUTLER, and CLINTON L. LINGREN,
collectively (the "Founders"), have individually entered into loan agreements
with the Company which provide for the Company to repay to the Founders
principal totaling $735,000 and interest thereon;
WHEREAS, the Company and Kingsbury Capital Partners, L.P. ("Kingsbury")
have entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of May 13, 1994, whereby
Kingsbury will provide additional financing to the Company in exchange for
Series A Preferred Stock of the Company, pursuant to which the Company has
agreed to enter into this Amendment with Lender to amend the terms of the
Original Agreement by the terms set forth below;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and of the mutual
provisions and obligations hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as
follows:
1. PAYMENTS. Principal and interest under this Amendment shall be
paid as follows.
1.1 Interest shall be paid quarterly. The simple rate of
interest shall be six and thirty-five hundredths percent (6.35%) per annum.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Amendment, it is the intent and agreement
of the parties that in the event any interest specified herein is found to
violate any applicable law or regulation, this Amendment shall be construed or
deemed amended so that the interest is adjusted to the extent necessary to
comply with such applicable law or regulation.
1.2 Payment of principal shall not become due until the later
of (i) March 31, 1999 or (ii) March 31 of the year immediately following the
first year in which the Company's cash provided by operations is greater than
zero as shown on the Company's audited statement of cash flows for such year.
Subject to certain exceptions to payment provided herein, the principal shall be
paid to Lender in twelve (12) equal quarterly installments, the first such
payment to be made within forty-five (45) days of the initial due date and
subsequent quarterly installments to be paid within forty-five (45) days of the
end of each subsequent quarter. The Company shall make payment of quarterly
installments to Lender in equal proportion to the amounts paid to the other
Founders, and shall not make payment of any portion of Lender's principal before
similar payment to other Founders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, the aggregate amount of the quarterly installments to principal paid to
Lender and the other Founders shall not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the
Company's cash provided by operations as shown on the Company's unaudited
statement of cash flows for the prior quarter, in
which event, any unpaid amounts of principal shall be carried forward and
subsequent quarterly installments shall be adjusted accordingly to account for
the principal carried forward.
2. Except as set forth herein, there have been no other amendments to
the Original Agreement and all terms and conditions thereof shall remain in full
force and effect.
3. This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each
of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall
constitute one and the same instrument.
4. No waiver or modification of the terms of this Amendment shall be
valid unless in writing, signed by both parties to this Amendment.
5. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of California, irrespective of its choice of law
provisions.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Amendment to be
signed in duplicate by their duly authorized representatives. Entered into as
of the day and year first above written.

AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE
REGISTRATION THEREOF UNDER SUCH ACT OR PURSUANT TO RULE 144 AND AN EXEMPTION
UNDER APPLICABLE STATE LAW OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO
THE CORPORATION AND ITS COUNSEL, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.
WARRANT TO PURCHASE STOCK
Corporation: Digirad Corporation
Number of Shares: 42,490
Class of Stock: Series E Preferred Stock
Initial Exercise Price: $3.036
Issue Date: July 31, 2001
Expiration Date: July 31, 2006
THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES THAT, for the agreed upon value of
$1.00 and for other good and valuable consideration, SILICON VALLEY BANK
("Holder") is entitled to purchase the number of fully paid and nonassessable
shares of the class of securities (the "Shares") of the corporation (the
"Company") at the initial exercise price per Share (the "Warrant Price") all as
set forth above and as adjusted pursuant to Article 2 of this Warrant, subject
to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Warrant.
ARTICLE 1. EXERCISE.
1.1 METHOD OF EXERCISE. Holder may exercise this Warrant by
delivering a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached
as Appendix 1 to the principal office of the Company. Unless Holder is
exercising the conversion right set forth in Section 1.2, Holder shall also
deliver to the Company a check for the aggregate Warrant Price for the Shares
being purchased.
1.2 CONVERSION RIGHT. In lieu of exercising this Warrant as
specified in Section 1.1, Holder may from time to time convert this Warrant, in
whole or in part, into a number of Shares determined by dividing (a) the
aggregate fair market value of the Shares or other securities otherwise issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant minus the aggregate Warrant Price of such Shares
by (b) the fair market value of one Share. The fair market value of the Shares
shall be determined pursuant to Section 1.3.
1.3 FAIR MARKET VALUE. If the Shares are traded in a public
market, the fair market value of the Shares shall be the closing price of the
Shares (or the closing price of the Company's stock into which the Shares are
convertible) reported for the business day immediately before Holder delivers
its Notice of Exercise to the Company. If the Shares are not traded in a public
market, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine fair market value
in its reasonable good faith judgment.
1
1.4 DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATE AND NEW WARRANT. Promptly after
Holder exercises or converts this Warrant, the Company shall deliver to Holder
certificates for the Shares acquired and, if this Warrant has not been fully
exercised or converted and has not expired, a new Warrant representing the
Shares not so acquired.
1.5 REPLACEMENT OF WARRANTS. On receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an
indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company
or, in the case of mutilation, or surrender and cancellation of this Warrant,
the Company shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of
like tenor.
1.6 ASSUMPTION ON SALE, MERGER, OR CONSOLIDATION OF THE
COMPANY.
1.6.1 "ACQUISITION". For the purpose of this
Warrant, "Acquisition" means any sale, license, or other disposition of all
or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any reorganization,
consolidation, or merger of the Company where the holders of the Company's
securities before the transaction beneficially own less than 50% of the
outstanding voting securities of the surviving entity after the transaction.
1.6.2 ASSUMPTION OF WARRANT. Upon the closing of any
Acquisition, the successor entity shall assume the obligations of this
Warrant, and this Warrant shall be exercisable for the same securities, cash,
and property as would be payable for the Shares issuable upon exercise of the
unexercised portion of this Warrant as if such Shares were outstanding on the
record date for the Acquisition and subsequent closing. The Initial Exercise
Price and/or number of Shares shall be adjusted accordingly.
ARTICLE 2. ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SHARES.
2.1 STOCK DIVIDENDS, SPLITS, ETC. If the Company declares or
pays a dividend on its common stock (or the Shares if the Shares are securities
other than common stock) payable in common stock, or other securities,
subdivides the outstanding common stock into a greater amount of common stock,
or if the Shares are securities other than common stock, subdivides the Shares
in a transaction that increases the amount of common stock into which the Shares
are convertible, then upon exercise of this Warrant, for each Share acquired,
Holder shall receive, without cost to Holder, the total number and kind of
securities to which Holder would have been entitled had Holder owned the Shares
of record as of the date the dividend or subdivision occurred. If the
outstanding shares are combined or consolidated, by reclassification or
otherwise, into a lesser number of shares, the Initial Exercise Price shall be
proportionately increased.
2.2 RECLASSIFICATION, EXCHANGE, COMBINATIONS OR SUBSTITUTION.
Upon any reclassification, exchange, substitution, or other event that results
in a change of the number and/or class of the securities issuable upon exercise
or conversion of this Warrant, Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon
exercise or conversion of this Warrant, the number and kind of securities and
property that Holder would have received for the Shares if this Warrant had been
exercised immediately before such reclassification, exchange, substitution, or
other event. Such
2
an event shall include any automatic conversion of the outstanding or
issuable securities of the Company of the same class or series as the Shares
to common stock pursuant to the terms of the Companys* of Incorporation upon
the closing of a registered public offering of the Company's common stock.
The Company or its successor shall promptly issue to Holder a new Warrant for
such new securities or other property. The new Warrant shall provide for
adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the
adjustments provided for in this Article 2 including, without limitation,
adjustments to the Initial Exercise Price and to the number of securities or
property issuable upon exercise of the new Warrant. The provisions of this
Section 2.2 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges,
substitutions, or other events.
*CERTIFICATE
2.3 ADJUSTMENTS FOR DILUTING ISSUANCES. The *provisions set
forth for the Shares in the Company's Certificate of Incorporation relating to
the above in effect as of the Issue Date may not be amended, modified or waived,
without the prior written consent of Holder unless such amendment, modification
