Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
(a) Effective September 22, 2009, the Company and Parker H. Petit, the Companys Chairman and Chief Executive Officer,
entered into a Subscription Agreement for a 5% Convertible Promissory Note (Subscription Agreement) and, in
connection therewith, issued a 5% Convertible Promissory Note (Note) and a Warrant to Purchase Common Stock
(Warrant), which expires in 3 years. The Subscription Agreement, Note and Warrant, the material terms of which are
described below, are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, and are incorporated herein by
reference.
Under the terms of the Subscription Agreement, Mr. Petit has agreed to advance the Company up to $500,000 to fund its
working capital needs as requested by the Company from time to time until December 20, 2009. Such indebtedness is
evidenced by the Note, which bears interest at the rate of 5% per annum, is due and payable in full on December 20,
2009 and, at the option of the holder, is convertible into the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company equal to
the quotient of (a) the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest of the Note as of the date of such election,
divided by (b) the selling price, if any, of the Companys Common Stock pursuant to a private placement approved by the
Corporations Board of Directors on September 22, 2009, or, if there are no such sales, $.60 per share (the Conversion
Price). In connection with the Subscription Agreement and the Note, the Company issued the Warrant for the number of
shares of Common Stock of the Company computed by dividing the aggregate amount of the advances made by Mr. Petit
pursuant to the Subscription Agreement by the Conversion Price and multiplying the resultant quotient by two. The
exercise price of the Warrant is the Conversion Price.
(b) On September 28, 2009, the Company and Matthew J. Miller, the Companys (Executive Vice President, Business
Development), and Veritas Trust (a family trust of which Mr. Miller is trustee) (Veritas) entered into a Right of
First Refusal Agreement (Refusal Agreement). The Refusal Agreement, the material terms of which are described below,
is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.4, and is incorporated herein by reference.
The Refusal Agreement provides that no Shares of the Company may be sold or otherwise transferred by Mr. Miller or
Veritas for a period of sixty (60) months from September 28, 2009, unless notice is given to the Company (a Transfer
Notice) which states the number of Shares to be transferred, the name and address of the proposed transferee, the date
of the intended Transfer and the price and terms of the intended Transfer. The Company or its designee(s) may elect to
purchase the Shares by providing notice of its election to purchase the Shares within seven (7) business days of the
Transfer Notice, at the same price and terms as stated in the Transfer Notice; provided that the purchase price with
respect to any intended open market Transfer shall be the closing price on the date of intended transfer as specified
in the Transfer Notice. The closing of the purchase of the Shares must be completed within seven (7) business days of
the date of the intended Transfer as stated in the Transfer Notice. Any Shares not purchased pursuant to the Refusal
Agreement may be sold as provided in the Transfer Notice, provided that such sale must be completed within thirty (30)
days of the date of the Transfer Notice, or the notice and refusal process must be followed again prior to any sale. A
Transfer to an Immediate Family member may be made upon ten (10) business days notice to the Company, provided that
such transferee must agree to sign and be bound by the Refusal Agreement.

September 22,
2009 |
For
value received MiMedx Group,
Inc., a
Florida corporation (the Company),
promises to pay to Parker H. PETIT (Holder) the principal sum of Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($500,000.00), or such lesser amount as has been advanced by the Holder to the Company by
the Holder, together with simple interest on the outstanding principal amount at the rate of five
percent (5.0%) per annum, calculated from the date of the applicable advance. The principal and all
accrued interest shall be due and payable in full on
December 20, 2009 (the Maturity Date).
Interest shall continue to accrue on the outstanding principal amount hereof until converted into
common stock of the Company (the Common Stock) as provided herein, or until the payment in full
of this Note whichever occurs first. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days
for the actual number of days elapsed. All cash payments of interest hereunder shall be in lawful
money of the United States of America. Upon payment in full of the amount of all principal and
interest payable hereunder (whether in cash or Common Stock upon a Voluntary Conversion, as
defined below), this Note shall be surrendered to the Company for cancellation.
1. This Note is issued pursuant to that certain 5% Convertible Promissory Note Subscription
Agreement dated as of September 22, 2009, (the Note Subscription Agreement), and is subject to
its terms and conditions. However, in the event of any conflict between the terms of this Note and
the Note Subscription Agreement, the terms of this Note shall govern.
2. This Note is convertible at any time upon the election of the Holder into that number of
shares of Common Stock of the Company equal to the quotient of (a) the outstanding
principal amount and accrued interest of this Note as of date of such election, divided by
(b) the selling price of the Companys Common Stock pursuant to the $5,000,000 private placement
approved by the Corporations Board of Directors on September 22, 2009 or, if there are no such
sales, $.60 per share (the Conversion Price). Such voluntary election to convert by Holder is
herein called a Voluntary Conversion. Holder must give the Company written notice of its
election, addressed to
the Company at 811 Livingston Ct. SE, Suite B, Marietta, GA 30067, via hand delivery,
overnight courier or facsimile (678)-384-6741. Notice shall be deemed given upon receipt.
3. Upon receipt of written notice from the Holder of a Voluntary Conversion, the applicable
amount of outstanding principal and accrued interest under this Note shall be converted into Common
Stock of the Company at the Conversion Price, without any further action by the Holder and whether
or not the Note is surrendered to the Company or its transfer agent. The Company shall not be
obligated to issue certificates evidencing the shares of the Common Stock issuable upon such
conversion unless and until such Note is either delivered to the Company or its transfer agent, or
Holder notifies the Company or its transfer agent that such Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed
and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss
incurred by it in connection with such Note. The Company shall, as soon as practicable after such
delivery, or such agreement and indemnification, issue and deliver at such office to the Holder, a
certificate or certificates for the securities to which Holder shall be entitled and a check
payable to the holder in the amount of any cash amounts payable as the result of a conversion into
fractional shares, as determined by the board of directors of the Company. The person or persons
entitled to receive securities issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as
the record holder or holders of such securities on such date.
4. In the event of any default hereunder, Company shall pay all reasonable attorneys fees and
court costs actually incurred by Holder in enforcing and collecting this Note.
5. Company may NOT prepay the principal amount of this Note and accrued interest hereunder, in
whole or part, at any time prior to the Maturity Date.
6. If there shall be any Event of Default (as defined below) hereunder, at the option and upon
the declaration of the Holder and upon written notice to the Company (which election and notice
shall not be required in the case of an Event of Default under Sections 6(b) or 6(c)), this Note
shall accelerate and all principal and unpaid accrued interest shall become immediately due and
payable. The occurrence of any one or more of the following shall constitute an Event of Default:
(a) Company fails to pay timely any principal and accrued interest or other amounts due under
this Note on the date the same becomes due and payable, and such amount remains unpaid for a period
of ten (10) business days after written notice thereof from Holder;
(b) Company files any petition or action for relief under any bankruptcy, reorganization,
insolvency or moratorium law or any other law for the relief of, or relating to, debtors, now or
hereafter in effect, or makes any assignment for the benefit of creditors or takes any corporate
action in furtherance of any of the foregoing; or
(c) An involuntary petition is filed against Company (unless such petition is dismissed or
discharged within sixty (60) days under any bankruptcy statute now or hereafter in effect), or a
custodian, receiver, trustee, assignee for the benefit of creditors (or other similar official) is
appointed to take possession, custody or control of any property of Company.
7. This Note shall be governed by construed and under the laws of the State of Florida,
without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles.
8. Nothing contained in this Note shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder or any
other person the right to vote or to consent or to receive notice as a stockholder of the Company.
9. This Note may be transferred only upon (a) its surrender by Holder to the Company for
registration of transfer, duly endorsed, or accompanied by a duly executed written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and (b) compliance with applicable provisions of the
Note Subscription Agreement, including (without limitation) the Companys receipt, if it so
requests, of an opinion of counsel as set forth in the Note Subscription Agreement. Thereupon,
this Note shall be reissued to, and registered in the name of, the transferee, or a new Note for
like principal amount and interest shall be issued to, and registered in the name of, the
transferee. Interest and principal shall be paid solely to the registered holder of this Note.
Such payment shall constitute full discharge of the Companys obligation to pay such interest and
principal.

(Eastern Standard Time) on the Expiration Date. The rights represented by this Warrant may be
exercised by the holder hereof then registered on the books of the Company, in whole or from time
to time in part (except that this Warrant shall not be exercisable as to a fractional share), by:
(i) delivery of a written notice, in the form of the subscription notice attached as Exhibit
A hereto (the Subscription Notice), of such holders election to exercise this Warrant, which
notice shall specify the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased; (ii) payment to the Company of
an amount equal to the Warrant Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to
which the Warrant is being exercised (plus any applicable issue or transfer taxes) in cash, by wire
transfer or by certified or official bank check; and (iii) the surrender of this Warrant, properly
endorsed, at the principal office of the Company in Marietta, Georgia (or at such other agency or
office of the Company as the Company may designate by notice to the Holder); provided, that if such
Warrant Shares are to be issued in any name other than that of the Holder, such issuance shall be
deemed a transfer and the provisions of Section 12 shall be applicable. In the event of any
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, a certificate or certificates for the Warrant
Shares so purchased, registered in the name of, or as directed by, the Holder, shall be delivered
to, or as directed by the Holder within a reasonable time after the date on which such rights shall
have been so exercised.
(b) Unless the rights represented by this Warrant shall have expired or have been fully
exercised, the Company shall issue, within such 15 day period, a new Warrant identical in all
respects to the Warrant exercised except (x) such new Warrant shall represent rights to purchase
the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately prior to such exercise under the warrant
exercised, less the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which such original Warrant was
exercised, and (y) the Warrant Exercise Price thereof shall be, subject to
further adjustment as provided in this Warrant, the Warrant Exercise Price of the Warrant
exercised. The person in whose name any certificate for Warrant Shares is issued upon exercise of
this Warrant shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Warrant
Shares immediately prior to the close of business on the date on which the Warrant was surrendered
and payment of the amount due in respect of such exercise and any applicable taxes was made,
irrespective of the date of delivery of such share certificate, except that, if the date of such
surrender and payment is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company are properly closed,
such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such Warrant Shares at the opening of
business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are open.
3
(c) In lieu of the Holder exercising this Warrant (or any portion hereof) for cash, it may, in
connection with such exercise, elect to satisfy the Warrant Exercise Price by exchanging solely (x)
this Warrant (or such portion hereof) for (y) that number of Warrant Shares equal to the product of
(i) the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise of the Warrant (or, if only a portion
of this Warrant is being exercised, issuable upon the exercise of such portion) for cash multiplied
by (ii) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the Market Price per share of the Common Stock at
the time of such exercise minus the Warrant Exercise Price per Warrant Share at the time of such
exercise, and (B) the denominator of which is the Market Price per share of the Common Stock at the
time of such exercise, such number of shares so issuable upon such exercise to be rounded up or
down to the nearest whole number of Warrant Shares.
3. Covenants as to Common Stock.
(a) The Company covenants and agrees that all Warrant Shares that may be issued upon the
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable. The Company further covenants and agrees that during the period within
which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have
authorized and reserved a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise
of the rights then represented by this Warrant and that the par value of said shares will at all
times be less than or equal to the applicable Warrant Exercise Price.
(b) If any shares of Common Stock reserved or to be reserved to provide for the exercise of
the rights then represented by this Warrant require registration with or approval of any
governmental authority under any federal or state law before such shares may be validly issued to
the Holder, then the Company covenants that it will in good faith and as expeditiously as possible
endeavor to secure such registration or approval, as the case may be.
4. Adjustment of Warrant Exercise Price upon Stock Splits, Dividends, Distributions and
Combinations; and Adjustment of Number of Shares.
(a) In case the Company shall at any time split or subdivide its outstanding shares of Common
Stock into a greater number of shares or issue a stock dividend (including any distribution of
stock without consideration) or make a distribution with respect to outstanding shares of Common
Stock or Convertible Securities payable in Common Stock or in Convertible Securities, the Warrant
Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision or stock
dividend or distribution shall be proportionately reduced and conversely, in case the
outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be combined into a smaller number of
shares, the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be
proportionately increased, in each case, by multiplying the then effective Warrant Exercise Price
by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such subdivision, stock dividend, distribution or combination
(determined on a fully diluted basis), and the denominator of which shall be the total number of
shares of Common Stock, immediately after such subdivision, stock dividend, distribution or
combination (determined on a fully diluted basis), and the product so obtained shall thereafter be
the Warrant Exercise Price. For purposes of this Warrant, on a fully diluted basis means that
all issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company, including all Convertible Securities, and
all outstanding options and warrants, whether or not vested, shall be taken into account.
4
(b) Upon each adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price as provided above in this Section 4,
the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to purchase, at the Warrant Exercise Price resulting from
such adjustment, the number of shares (calculated to the nearest tenth of a share) obtained by
multiplying the Warrant Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number
of shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product
thereof by the Warrant Exercise Price immediately after such adjustment.
5. Reorganization, Reclassification, Etc. In case of any capital reorganization, or
of any reclassification of the capital stock of the Company (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 split-up or
combination) or in case of the consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other
corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing
corporation and which does not result in the Common Stock being changed into or exchanged for stock
or other securities or property of any other person), or of the sale of the properties and assets
of the Company as, or substantially as, an entirety to any other corporation, this Warrant shall,
after such capital reorganization, reclassification of capital stock, consolidation, merger or
sale, entitle the Holder hereof to purchase the kind and number of shares of stock or other
securities or property of the Company or of the corporation resulting from such consolidation or
surviving such merger or to which such sale shall be made, as the case may be, to which the holder
hereof would have been entitled if he had held the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise hereof
immediately prior to such capital reorganization, reclassification of capital stock, consolidation,
merger or sale, and, in any such case, appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the
rights and interests of the holder of this Warrant to the end that the provisions thereof
(including without limitation provisions for adjustment of the Warrant Exercise Price and of the
number of shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall thereafter be applicable, as
nearly as may be in relation to any shares of stock, securities, or assets thereafter deliverable
upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby. The Company shall not effect any such
consolidation, merger or sale, unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the
successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger of
the corporation purchasing such assets shall assume by written instrument executed and mailed or
delivered to the registered holder hereof at the address of such holder appearing on the books of
the Company, the obligation to deliver to such holder such shares of stock,
securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holder may be
entitled to purchase.
5
6. Notice of Adjustment of Warrant Exercise Price. Upon any adjustment of the Warrant
Exercise Price, then the Company shall give notice thereof to the Holder of this Warrant, which
notice shall state the Warrant Exercise Price in effect after such adjustment and the increase, or
decrease, if any, in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable at the Warrant Exercise Price upon
the exercise of this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the
facts upon which such calculation is based.
7. Computation of Adjustments. Upon each computation of an adjustment in the Warrant
Exercise Price and the number of shares which may be subscribed for and purchased upon exercise of
this Warrant, the Warrant Exercise Price shall be computed to the nearest cent (i.e. fraction of .5
of a cent, or greater, shall be rounded to the next highest cent) and the number of shares which
may be subscribed for and purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be calculated to the
nearest whole share (i.e. fractions of less than one half of a share shall be disregarded and
fractions of one half of a share, or greater, shall be treated as being a whole share). No such
adjustment shall be made however, if the change in the Warrant Exercise Price would be less than
$.001 per share, but any such lesser adjustment shall be made (i) at the time and together with the
next subsequent adjustment which, together with any adjustments carried forward, shall amount to
$.001 per share or more, or (ii) if earlier, upon the third anniversary of the event for which such
adjustment is required.
8. No Change in Warrant Terms on Adjustment. Irrespective of any adjustment in the
Warrant Exercise Price or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise hereof, this
Warrant, whether theretofore or thereafter issued or reissued, may continue to express the same
means of establishing the exercise price and number of shares as are stated herein and the Warrant
Exercise Price and such number of shares as so determined shall be deemed to have been so adjusted.
9. Taxes. The Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes attributable to
the initial issuance of the Warrant Shares or any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of any
certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the registered holder hereof or upon
any transfer of this Warrant.
10. Warrant Holder Not Deemed a Shareholder. No holder, as such, of this Warrant
shall be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of shares of the Company for
any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the holder
hereof, as such, any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or
withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock,
reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of
meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance of record
to the holder of this Warrant of the Warrant Shares which he is then entitled to receive upon the
due exercise of this Warrant.
11. No Limitation on Corporate Action. No provisions of this Warrant and no right or
option granted or conferred hereunder shall in any way limit, affect or abridge the exercise by the
Company of any of its corporate rights or powers to recapitalize, amend its Articles of
Incorporation, reorganize, consolidate or merge with or into another corporation, or to transfer
all or any part of its property or assets, or the exercise of any other of its corporate rights and
powers.
6
12. Transfer; Opinions of Counsel; Restrictive Legends. To the extent applicable,
each certificate or other document evidencing any of the Warrant Shares shall be endorsed with the
legends set forth below, and Holder covenants that, except to the extent such restrictions are

(ii) Holder shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have

disposition will not require registration of the Warrant or any Warrant Shares under the
Securities Act and (B) the transferee shall have furnished to the Company its agreement to
abide by the restrictions on transfer set forth herein as if it were a purchaser hereunder.
(g) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 12, no such registration statement or

authorized to act on behalf of such Holder or its partners or equity holders), or (ii) if he or she
is an individual, to members of such individuals family for estate planning purposes; provided,
however, that the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms of this Section 12.
(h) Upon delivery of the foregoing opinion of counsel (with respect to a transfer of the
Warrant Shares) and the surrender of this Warrant to the Company at its principal office, together
with (i) the assignment form annexed hereto as Exhibit B (the Assignment Form) duly

issuable upon the exercise thereof.

RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL AGREEMENT
This Right of First Refusal Agreement (this Agreement) is made effective as of September
28th, 2009, by and among MiMedx Group, Inc., a Florida corporation (Company), and
Matthew J. Miller (Miller) individually and as sole trustee of Veritas Trust (a trust under the
laws of Florida) (Veritas).
WHEREAS, Veritas and/or Miller hold shares of common stock in the Company, and in
consideration of the proposed sale by Veritas and purchase by certain members of the Board of the
Company of 100,000 shares of stock in the Company, Miller and Veritas have agreed to grant to the
Company a right of first refusal on any future Transfer (as defined below) of Shares on the terms
set forth herein.
NOW THEREFORE, In consideration of the mutual promises, covenants and conditions herein
contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is
hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Definitions. Certain terms used herein are defined as follows:
(a) Immediate Family means any spouse, child, grandchild, parent, brother, or sister of
Miller.
(b) Shares means any shares of capital stock of the Company or any securities convertible
into or exchangeable for any class of capital stock of the Company and all securities into which
such Shares may hereafter be converted or reclassified as a result of any merger, consolidation,
stock split, stock dividend, or other recapitalization of the Company.
(c) Term of this Agreement means that period of time commencing on the date set forth in the
heading of this Agreement and ending sixty (60) months thereafter.
2. Restrictions on Transfer.
During the Term hereof, Miller and Veritas agree not to sell or engage in any transaction
(whether in a private or open market transaction or otherwise) which will result in a change in
the beneficial or record ownership of any Shares now owned or hereafter acquired by Miller or
Veritas, including, without limitation, a sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation,
encumbrance or gift (a Transfer), except as provided in this Agreement. Any such Transfer or
attempted Transfer of Shares in contravention of this Agreement shall be void and ineffective for
any purpose and shall not confer on any transferee or purported transferee any rights or interest
whatsoever in the Shares.
3. Right of First Refusal.
(a) Each time Miller or Veritas proposes to make a bona fide Transfer (except by gift to an
Immediate Family member) of any or all of the Shares held by or on behalf of Miller or Veritas
during the Term of this Agreement, Miller or Veritas, as the case shall be, shall first offer such
Shares to the Company in accordance with the following provisions:
(i) Miller shall deliver a written notice (a Transfer Notice) to Company stating: (A)
the bona fide intention of Miller or Veritas to Transfer such Shares, (B) the name and the
address of the proposed transferee, (C) the number of Shares to be transferred, (D) the
purchase price per Share (if a private transaction) and the terms of payment, and (D) the
intended date for the Transfer of such Shares.
(ii) Within seven (7) business days after receipt of the Transfer Notice, the Company
or its designee(s) shall have the right to elect to purchase such Shares, upon the price and
terms of payment designated in the Transfer Notice. If the Transfer Notice provides for an
open market transaction the Company or its designee(s) shall have the right to purchase such
Shares at the closing price on the OTC:BB or any exchange on which the Companys shares may
be traded on the date of intended Transfer stated in the Transfer Notice. In order to
exercise such right of first refusal, the Company shall deliver to Miller a notice (a
Purchase Notice) within the seven (7) business day period stated above, and the closing of
such sale and purchase shall be completed not later than seven (7) business days after the
intended date of Transfer as set forth in the Transfer Notice. At the closing, Miller
and/or Veritas shall deliver the Shares covered by the Transfer Notice and the Company or
its designee(s) shall pay the purchase price in full if an open market Transfer had been
indicated in the Transfer Notice, and shall deliver the required consideration at closing in
the event a private sale was indicated in the Transfer Notice.
(iii) If the Company or its designee elects not to purchase all of the Shares
designated in the Transfer Notice, the Shares referred to in the Transfer Notice may be
Transferred to the proposed transferee, if completed within thirty (30) calendar days after
the date of the Transfer Notice and at the price and in accordance with terms designated in
the Transfer Notice. If the Transfer is a private transaction, the transferee must agree to
become a party to and to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement immediately
upon receipt of such Shares. Any purported Transfer not in full compliance with the
requirements of this subsection 3(a)(iii) shall be null and void, and a new Transfer Notice
must be provided in accordance with this Agreement prior to effecting any subsequent or
other Transfer of Shares.
(b) Notwithstanding Section 3(a), Miller or Veritas may Transfer Shares by gift to a member of
Millers Immediately Family or to a trust established for the benefit of a member or members of
Millers Immediate Family, provided that notice is given to the Company of such Transfer not less
than (10) business days prior to the Transfer. In the case of any Transfer under this Section 3
(b), the transferee must agree to become a party to and to be bound by this Agreement.
4. Notice. Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be delivered in person or
sent by telecopier or other electronic transmission (including e-mail), provided a copy of such
notice is also sent the day of such electronic transmission by regular mail, overnight courier or
certified mail, return receipt requested, postage and fees prepaid in all cases; in the case of
Company, to 811 Livingston Court, Suite B, Marietta, Georgia 30067, or the then current address of
its then principal business office, to the attention of the General Counsel, Fax No: (678)

or number as will have been specified by prior written notice to the sending party. Notice shall
be effective upon delivery if it is hand delivered; upon receipt if it is transmitted by
telecopier, e-mail, overnight courier or certified mail.
5. Miscellaneous. (i) Each party hereto agrees to perform any and all further acts
and to execute and deliver any documents which may reasonably be necessary to carry out the
provisions of this Agreement. (ii) This Agreement may be amended at any time only by the written
agreement of all of the parties hereto. (iii) This Agreement will be governed in all respects by
the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to its conflicts of law provisions. (iv) The
parties hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state or federal courts located in the
State of Georgia, Fulton County, for the resolution of any disputes arising out of this Agreement.
(v) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and upon
their permitted successors in interest of any kind whatsoever, their heirs, executors,
administrators, and personal representatives. (vi) This Agreement may be signed in any number of
counterparts, each of which will be an original, but all of which together will constitute one and
the same instrument. (vii) This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of
the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior or
contemporaneous agreements and understandings pertaining thereto whether oral or written. (viii) 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 this Agreement shall be
enforceable in accordance with its terms and interpreted as if such provisions were as excluded.
(ix) In the event that any dispute among the parties hereto should result in litigation or
arbitration, the prevailing party in such dispute shall be entitled to recover from the other party
all reasonable fees, costs and expenses of enforcing any right of the prevailing party, including,

related transactions, of securities of the Company representing in excess of fifty percent (50%) or
more of the combined voting power of the Companys then outstanding securities if such person or
his or its affiliate(s) do not own in excess of 50% of such voting power on the Effective Date, or
(y) the date of the closing of a disposition by the Company (whether direct or indirect, by sale

proportions as they hold prior to the transaction, substantially all of the voting securities of a

exception of (i) the agreement described in paragraph 8 and (ii) any stock or option agreements
between Executive and the Company. This Agreement (including the documents described in (i) and
(ii) herein) supersedes all prior negotiations, representations or agreements between Executive and

Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality
and enforceability of the remaining provisions (or any part thereof) shall not in any way be

Section 6 below), its rights in inventions (as defined in Section 2 below) and in all related
intellectual property rights. Accordingly, I am entering into this employee invention Assignment
and Confidentiality Agreement (this Agreement) as a condition of my employment with the Company,
whether or not I am expected to create inventions of value for the Company.
2. Disclosure of Inventions. I will promptly disclose in confidence to the Company
all (Inventions) defined as, improvements, designs, original works of authorship, formulas,
processes, compositions of matter, computer software programs, databases, mask works and trade
secrets that I make or conceive or first reduce to practice or create, either alone or jointly with
others, during the period of my employment, whether or not in the course of my employment, and
whether or not such Inventions are patentable, copyrightable or protectable as trade secrets.
17. Work for Hire; Assignment of Inventions. I acknowledge and agree that any
copyrightable works prepared by me within the scope of my employment are works for hire under the
Copyright Act and that the Company will be considered the author and owner of such copyrightable
works. I agree that all Inventions that (i) are developed using equipment, supplies, facilities or
trade secrets of the Company, (ii) result from work performed by me for the Company, or
(iii) relate to the Companys business or current or anticipated research and development, will be
the sole and exclusive property of the Company and are hereby irrevocably assigned by me to the
Company.
18. Assignment of Other Rights. In addition to the foregoing assignment of Inventions
to the Company, I hereby irrevocably transfer and assign to the Company: (i) all worldwide patents,
patent applications, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights
in any Invention; and (ii) any and all Moral Rights (as defined below) that I may have in or with
respect to any Invention. I also hereby forever waive and agree never to assert any and all Moral
Rights I may have in or with respect to any Invention, even after termination of my work on behalf
of the Company. Moral Rights mean any rights to claim authorship of an Invention, to object to or
prevent the modification of any Invention, or to
withdraw from circulation or control the publication or distribution of any Invention, and any
similar right, existing under judicial or statutory law of any country in the world, or under any
treaty, regardless of whether or not such right is denominated or generally referred to as a moral
right.
6
19. Assistance. I agree to assist the Company in every proper way to obtain for the
Company and enforce patents, copyrights, mask work rights, trade secret rights and other legal
protections for the Companys Inventions in any and all countries. I will execute any documents
that the Company may reasonably request for use in obtaining or enforcing such patents, copyrights,
mask work rights, trade secrets and other legal protections. My obligations under this paragraph
will continue beyond the termination of my employment with the Company for any reason or no reason,
provided that the Company will compensate me at a reasonable rate after such termination for time
or expenses actually spent by me at the Companys request on such assistance. I hereby constitute
and appoint the Company as my agent and attorney in fact to execute and deliver any such
assignments or documents, including applications for patent or copyright protection that I fail or
refuse to execute and deliver, this power and agency being coupled with an interest and being
irrevocable.
20. Proprietary Information. I understand that my employment by the Company creates a
relationship of confidence and trust with respect to any information of a confidential or secret
nature that may be disclosed to me by the Company that relates to the business of the Company or to
the business of any parent, subsidiary, affiliate, customer or supplier of the Company or any other
party with whom the Company agrees to hold information of such party in confidence (the
Proprietary Information). Such Proprietary Information includes, but is not limited to,
Inventions, marketing plans, product plans, business strategies, financial information, forecasts,
personnel information, customer lists and domain names.
21. Confidentiality. At all times, both during my employment and after its
termination, I will keep and hold all such Proprietary Information in strict confidence and trust.
I will not use or disclose any Proprietary Information without the prior written consent of the
Company, except as may be necessary to perform my duties as an employee of the Company for the
benefit of the Company. Upon termination of my employment with the Company, I will promptly
deliver to the Company all documents and materials of any nature pertaining to my work with the
Company. I will not take with me any documents or materials or copies thereof containing any
Proprietary Information.
22. No Breach of Prior Agreement. I represent that my performance of all the terms of
this Agreement and my duties as an employee of the Company will not breach any invention
assignment, proprietary information, confidentiality or similar agreement with any former employer
or other party. I represent that I will not bring with me to the Company or use in the performance
of my duties for the Company any documents or materials or intangibles of a former employer or
third party that are not generally available to the public or have not been legally transferred to
the Company.
23. Efforts; Duty Not to Compete. I understand that my employment with the Company
requires my attention and effort during normal business hours. While I am employed by the Company,
I will not, without the Companys express prior written consent, provide services to, or assist in
any manner, any business or third party which competes with the current or planned business of the
Company.
24. Notification. I hereby authorize the Company to notify my actual or future
employers of the terms of this Agreement and my responsibilities hereunder.
25. Non-Solicitation of Employees/Consultants. During my employment with the Company
and for a period of one (1) year thereafter, I will not directly or indirectly solicit away
employees or consultants of the Company for my own benefit or for the benefit of any other person
or entity.
7
26. Non-Solicitation of Suppliers/Customers. During my employment with the Company
and after termination of my employment, I will not directly or indirectly solicit or take away
suppliers or customers of the Company if the identity of the supplier or customer or information
about the supplier or customer relationship is a trade secret or is otherwise deemed confidential
information under applicable law.
27. Injunctive Relief. I understand that in the event of a breach or threatened
breach of this Agreement by me the Company may suffer irreparable harm and will therefore be
entitled to injunctive relief to enforce this Agreement.
28. Governing Law; Severability. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to that body of laws
pertaining to conflict of laws. If any provision of this Agreement is determined by any court or
arbitrator of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such
provision will be enforced to the maximum extent possible given the intent of the parties hereto.
If such clause or provision cannot be so enforced, such provision shall be stricken from this
Agreement and the remainder of this Agreement shall be enforced as if such invalid, illegal or
unenforceable clause or provision had (to the extent not enforceable) never been contained in this
Agreement. Notwithstanding the forgoing, if the value of this Agreement based upon the substantial
benefit of the bargain for any party is materially impaired, which determination as made by the
presiding court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction shall be binding, then this Agreement will
not be enforceable against such affected party and both parties agree to renegotiate such
provision(s) in good faith.
29. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each
of which when so executed and delivered will be deemed an original, and all of which together shall
constitute one and the same agreement.
30. Titles and Headings. The titles, captions and headings of this Agreement are
included for ease of reference only and will be disregarded in interpreting or construing this
Agreement. Unless otherwise specifically stated, all references herein to sections and
exhibits will mean sections and exhibits to this Agreement.
31. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents referred to herein constitute
the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter of this
Agreement, and supersede all prior understandings and agreements, whether oral or written, between
or among the parties hereto with respect to the specific subject matter hereof.
32. Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may be amended only by a written agreement
executed by each of the parties hereto. No amendment of, waiver of, or modification of, any
obligation under this Agreement will be enforceable unless set forth in writing signed by the party
against which enforcement is sought. Any amendment effected in accordance with this
section will be binding upon all parties hereto and each of their respective successors and
assigns. No delay or failure to require performance of any provision of this Agreement shall
constitute a waiver of that provision as to that or any other instance. No waiver granted under
this Agreement as to any one provision herein shall constitute a subsequent waiver of such
provision or of any other provision herein, nor shall it constitute the waiver of any performance
other than the actual performance specifically waived.
8
33. Successors and Assigns; Assignment. Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, this Agreement, and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder, will be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors,
administrators and legal representatives. The Company may assign any of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement. No other party to this Agreement may assign, whether voluntarily or by
operation of law, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, except with the prior
written consent of the Company.
34. Further Assurances. The parties agree to execute such further documents and
instruments and to take such further actions as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the
purposes and intent of this Agreement.
