C. The Preferred Stock authorized by this Certificate of Incorporation may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Board of Directors is hereby expressly authorized to provide for the issue of all or any of the shares of the Preferred Stock in one or more series, and to fix the number of shares and to determine or alter for each such series, such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designation, preferences, and relative, participating, optional, or other rights and such qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated and expressed in the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors providing for the issuance of such shares and as may be permitted by the DGCL. The Board of Directors is also expressly authorized to increase or decrease the number of shares of any series subsequent to the issuance of shares of that series, but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding.

(b) If the Company in any manner subdivides or combines the outstanding shares of any class of Common Stock, the outstanding shares of each other such class will be subdivided or combined in the same proportion and manner, unless different treatment of the shares of each such class is approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of such class of Common Stock, each voting separately as a class.

(c) In connection with any Change in Control Transaction, shares of Common Stock shall be treated equally, identically and ratably, on a per share basis, with respect to any consideration into which such shares are converted or any consideration paid or otherwise distributed to stockholders of the Company, unless different treatment of the shares of each such class is approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class 1 Common Stock and Class 2 Common Stock, each voting separately as a class. Any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into any other entity, which is not a Change of Control

 

6.

3. Voting Rights.

(a) Common Stock. Each holder of shares of Class 1 Common Stock shall be entitled to three (3) votes for each share thereof held. Each holder of shares of Class 2 Common Stock shall be entitled to one (1) vote for each share thereof held. Except as otherwise provided by law or in this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of the Class 1 Common Stock and Class 2 Common Stock shall vote together as single class.

(b) Class 1 Common Stock Protective Provisions. So long as any shares of Class 1 Common Stock remain outstanding, the Company shall not, without the approval by vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the Class 1 Common Stock then outstanding, voting together as a single class, directly or indirectly, or whether by amendment, or through merger, recapitalization, consolidation or otherwise:

(i) amend, waive, alter, or repeal any provision of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws of the Company (including any filing of a Certificate of Designation), that modifies the voting, conversion or other powers, preferences, or other special rights or privileges, or restrictions of the Class 1 Common Stock; or

(ii) reclassify any outstanding shares of Class 2 Common Stock of the Company into shares having rights as to dividends or liquidation that are senior to the Class 1 Common Stock or the right to more than one (1) vote for each share thereof.

(c) General. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or as required by law, the holders of Preferred Stock, Class 1 Common Stock and Class 2 Common Stock shall vote together and not as separate series or classes.

4. Optional Conversion.

(a) Optional Conversion of the Class 1 Common Stock.

(i) At the option of the holder thereof, each one (1) share of Class 1 Common Stock shall be convertible at any time into one (1) fully paid and nonassessable share of Class 2 Common Stock as provided herein.

(ii) Each holder of Class 1 Common Stock who elects to convert the same into shares of Class 2 Common Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor (if any), duly endorsed, at the office of the Company or any transfer agent for the Class 1 Common Stock or Class 2 Common Stock, and shall give written notice to the Company at such office that such holder elects to convert the same and shall state therein the number of shares of Class 1 Common Stock being converted. Thereupon the Company shall (1) if such shares are certificated,

 

7.


promptly issue and deliver at such office to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Class 2 Common Stock to which such holder is entitled upon such conversion or (2) if such shares are uncertificated, register such shares in book-entry form. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of, if such shares are certificated, such surrender of the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class 1 Common Stock to be converted or, if such shares are uncertificated, then upon the written notice of such holder’s election to convert by this Article IV(D), Section 4(a)(ii). The person entitled to receive the shares of Class 2 Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Class 2 Common Stock on such date. If a conversion election under this Article IV(D), Section 4(a)(ii) is made in connection with an underwritten offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the conversion may, at the option of the holder tendering shares of Class 1 Common Stock for conversion, be conditioned upon the closing with the underwriters of the sale of the Company’s securities pursuant to such offering, in which event the holders making such elections who are entitled to receive Class 2 Common Stock upon conversion of their Class 1 Common Stock shall not be deemed to have converted such shares of Class 1 Common Stock until immediately after the closing of such sale of the Company’s securities in the offering.

5. Automatic Conversion.

(a) Automatic Conversion of the Class 1 Common Stock.

(i) Final Conversion Date. On the Final Conversion Date, each one (1) issued and outstanding share of Class 1 Common Stock shall automatically, without any further action, convert into one (1) fully paid and nonassessable share of Class 2 Common Stock. Following such conversion, the reissuance of all shares of Class 1 Common Stock shall be prohibited, and such shares shall be retired and cancelled in accordance with Section 243 of the DGCL and the filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware required thereby, and upon such retirement and cancellation, all references to the Class 1 Common Stock in this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation shall be eliminated. Upon the conversion of any then-outstanding shares of Class 1 Common Stock into Class 2 Common Stock upon the Final Conversion Date, such conversion shall be deemed to have been made upon the Final Conversion Date. Upon conversion of Class 1 Common Stock into Class 2 Common Stock on the Final Conversion Date, all rights of holders of shares of Class 1 Common Stock shall cease and (a) if such shares are certificated, the person or persons in whose name or names the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Class 2 Common Stock are to be issued or (b) if such shares are not certificated, the person registered as the owner of such shares in book-entry form, shall be treated for all purposes as having become the record holder or holders of such shares of Class 2 Common Stock.

(ii) Conversion Upon Transfer(s).

(A) Each one (1) share of Class 1 Common Stock shall automatically be converted into one (1) fully paid and nonassessable share of Class 2 Common Stock upon a Transfer, other than a Permitted Transfer, of such share of Class 1 Common Stock.

 

8.


(B) Conversion pursuant to this Article IV(D), Section 5(a)(ii) shall occur automatically without the need for any further action by the holders of such shares and whether or not the certificates representing such shares are surrendered to the Company or its transfer agent; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to issue certificates (if such shares are certificated) evidencing the shares of Class 2 Common Stock issuable upon such conversion unless the certificates evidencing such shares of Class 1 Common Stock are either delivered to the Company or its transfer agent as provided below, or the holder notifies the Company or its transfer agent that such certificates have 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 certificates. Upon the occurrence of such automatic conversion of the Class 1 Common Stock, the holders of Class 1 Common Stock so converted shall surrender the certificates (if such shares are certificated) representing such shares at the office of the Company or any transfer agent for the Class 2 Common Stock. Thereupon, (A) if such shares are certificated, there shall be issued and delivered to such holder promptly at such office and in its name as shown on such surrendered certificate or certificates, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Class 2 Common Stock into which the shares of Class 1 Common Stock surrendered were convertible on the date on which such automatic conversion occurred or (B) if such shares are uncertificated, such shares shall be registered in book-entry form.

(b) Conversion Upon Death or Disability. Each share of Class 1 Common Stock held of record by a natural person shall automatically, without any further action, convert into one (1) fully paid and nonassessable share of Class 2 Common Stock upon the death of such stockholder or, solely with respect to the death or Disability of a Founder who is a natural person (the “Affected Founder”), each share of Class 1 Common Stock held of record by (i) the Affected Founder, (ii) any Permitted Entity of the Affected Founder (excluding any Permitted Entity in which the Affected Founder shares Voting Control with another Founder, provided such other Founder retains Voting Control following such death or Disability) and (iii) any Permitted Transferee of the Affected Founder or such Permitted Entity under clause (ii) (collectively, the “Affected Holders”) shall automatically, without any further action, convert into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Class 2 Common Stock upon the death or Disability of such Affected Founder; provided, however, that if any such Affected Holder transfers exclusive Voting Control of shares of Class 1 Common Stock to another Founder (the “Surviving Founder”) which transfer of Voting Control is contingent or effective upon the death or Disability of the Affected Founder, then each share of Class 1 Common Stock held of record by such Affected Holder shall automatically convert into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Class 2 Common Stock upon the date which is the earlier of (i) nine (9) months after the date of the death or Disability of the Affected Founder, as the case may be, or (ii) the date upon which the Surviving Founder ceases to hold exclusive Voting Control over such shares of Class 1 Common Stock.

6. Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Class 2 Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of the Class 1 Common Stock, as applicable, such number of its shares of Class 2 Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of Class 1 Common Stock; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Class 2 Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then-outstanding shares of Class 1 Common Stock, as applicable, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Class 2 Common Stock to such numbers of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose.

 

9.


7. Procedures. The Company may, from time to time, establish such policies and procedures relating to the conversion of the Class 1 Common Stock to Class 2 Common Stock and the general administration of this dual class stock structure, including the issuance of stock certificates with respect thereto, as it may deem necessary or advisable, and may from time to time request that holders of shares of Class 1 Common Stock furnish certifications, affidavits or other proof to the Company as it deems necessary to verify the ownership of Class 1 Common Stock, to confirm the validity of all Transfers purported to be Permitted Transfers, and to confirm that a conversion to Class 2 Common Stock has not occurred. A determination by the Secretary of the Company that a Transfer results in a conversion to Class 2 Common Stock shall be conclusive and binding.

8. No Further Issuances. Except for the issuance of Class 1 Common Stock issuable upon a Distribution payable in accordance with Article IV(D), Section 2, the Company shall not at any time after the time of acceptance of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Effective Time”), issue any additional shares of Class 1 Common Stock, unless such issuance is approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class 1 Common Stock.

V.

A. The liability of the directors of the Company for monetary damages shall be eliminated to the fullest extent under applicable law.

B. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company is authorized to provide indemnification of (and advancement of expenses to) directors, officers and agents of the Company (and any other persons to which applicable law permits the Company to provide indemnification) through Bylaw provisions, agreements with such agents or other persons, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise in excess of the indemnification and advancement otherwise permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL and, if applicable, Section 317 of the California General Corporation Law. If the DGCL or any other law of the State of Delaware is amended after approval by the stockholders of this Article V to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director to the Company shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as so amended.

C. Any repeal or modification of this Article V shall only be prospective and shall not affect the rights or protections or increase the liability of any director under this Article V in effect at the time of the alleged occurrence of any action or omission to act giving rise to liability or indemnification.

D. Unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company; (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Company to the Company or the Company’s stockholders; (iii) any action asserting a claim against the

 

10.


Company arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or the Bylaws of the Company; or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Company governed by the internal affairs doctrine. Unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of capital stock of the Company shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the provisions of this Section D of Article V.

VI.

For the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs of the Company, and in further definition, limitation and regulation of the powers of the Company, of its directors and of its stockholders or any class thereof, as the case may be, it is further provided that:

A. Board of Directors.

1. Generally. The management of the business and the conduct of the affairs of the Company shall be vested in its Board of Directors. The number of directors that shall constitute the Board of Directors shall be fixed exclusively by resolutions adopted by a majority of the authorized number of directors constituting the Board of Directors.

2. Election.

(a) Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect additional directors under specified circumstances, following the closing of the IPO, and for so long as permitted by applicable law, the directors shall be divided into three classes designated as Class I, Class II and Class III, respectively. The Board of Directors is authorized to assign members of the Board of Directors already in office to such classes at the time the classification becomes effective. At the first annual meeting of stockholders following the closing of the IPO, the term of office of the Class I directors shall expire and Class I directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At the second annual meeting of stockholders following the IPO, the term of office of the Class II directors shall expire and Class II directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At the third annual meeting of stockholders following the IPO, the term of office of the Class III directors shall expire and Class III directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At each succeeding annual meeting of stockholders, directors shall be elected for a full term of three years to succeed the directors of the class whose terms expire at such annual meeting.

(b) At any time that applicable law prohibits a classified board as described in Article VI, Section (A)(2)(a), all directors shall be elected at each annual meeting of stockholders to hold office until the next annual meeting. The directors of the Company need not be elected by written ballot unless the Bylaws so provide.

(c) No stockholder entitled to vote at an election for directors may cumulate votes to which such stockholder is entitled unless required by applicable law at the time of such election. During such time or times that applicable law requires cumulative voting, every stockholder entitled to vote at an election for directors may cumulate such stockholder’s votes and

 

11.


give one candidate a number of votes equal to the number of directors to be elected multiplied by the number of votes to which such stockholder’s shares are otherwise entitled, or distribute the stockholder’s votes on the same principle among as many candidates as such stockholder thinks fit. No stockholder, however, shall be entitled to so cumulate such stockholder’s votes unless (i) the names of such candidate or candidates have been placed in nomination prior to the voting and (ii) the stockholder has given notice at the meeting, prior to the voting, of such stockholder’s intention to cumulate such stockholder’s votes. If any stockholder has given proper notice to cumulate votes, all stockholders may cumulate their votes for any candidates who have been properly placed in nomination. Under cumulative voting, the candidates receiving the highest number of votes, up to the number of directors to be elected, are elected.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, each director shall serve until his successor is duly elected and qualified or until his earlier death, resignation or removal. No decrease in the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.

3. Removal of Directors. Subject to any limitations imposed by applicable law, any individual director or directors may be removed (a) with or without cause, for so long as the Key Holders hold or beneficially own a majority of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote generally at an election of directors (such period, the “Control Period”), by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote generally at an election of directors, or (b) with cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote generally at an election of directors.

4. Vacancies. Subject to any limitations imposed by applicable law and subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, any vacancies on the Board of Directors resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, removal or other causes and any newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors, shall, unless the Board of Directors determines by resolution that any such vacancies or newly created directorships shall be filled by the stockholders and except as otherwise provided by applicable law, be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board of Directors, and not by the stockholders. Any director elected in accordance with the preceding sentence shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of the director for which the vacancy was created or occurred and until such director’s successor shall have been elected and qualified.

B. Stockholder Actions. No action shall be taken by the stockholders of the Company except at an annual or special meeting of stockholders called in accordance with the Bylaws, and, at any time other than the Control Period, no action shall be taken by the stockholders by written consent or electronic transmission.

C. Bylaws. The Board of Directors is expressly empowered to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws of the Company. Any adoption, amendment or repeal of the Bylaws of the Company by the Board of Directors shall require the approval of a majority of the authorized number of directors. The stockholders shall also have power to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws of the Company; provided, however, that, in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of the Company required by law or by this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, such action by stockholders shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.
