The shares were purchased by the Reporting Persons with working capital.

In March 2007, February 2008, July 2008 and October 2008, the Issuer issued a total of 1,487,680 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock at a price per share of $13.44 to entities affiliated with the Reporting Persons, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $20.0 million.

In January 2009, the Issuer sold $10.63 million in aggregate principal amount of convertible promissory notes, or the 2009 Convertible Notes, in a private placement to certain of its existing investors, including the Reporting Persons.

ITEM 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement

The Reporting Persons and certain other stockholders (collectively, the “Holders”) of the Issuer have entered into an Investors’ Rights Agreement dated March 23, 2007 (the “Investor Rights Agreement”) with the Issuer. Subject to the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement, holders of shares having registration rights (“Registrable Securities”) can demand that the Issuer file a registration statement or request that their shares be covered by a registration statement that the Issuer is otherwise filing.

Demand and Form S-3 Registration Rights. Subject to specified limitations, the Holders of at least thirty percent of the Issuer’s preferred stock having registration rights may demand that the Issuer register all or a portion of its Registrable Securities under the Securities Act. The Issuer is not obligated to file a registration statement pursuant to this provision:

 

   

until 180 days after the completion of the IPO; and

 

   

on more than three occasions.

In addition, the Holders of the Issuer’s Registrable Securities may demand that the Issuer register on Form S-3 all or a portion of the Registrable Securities held by them. The Issuer is not obligated to file a Form S-3 pursuant to this provision on more than two occasions in any 12-month period.

Incidental Registration Rights. If at any time after the completion of the IPO the Issuer proposes to file a registration statement to register any of the Issuer’s securities under the Securities Act, either for its own account or for the account of any of its stockholders, the holders of the Issuer’s Registrable Securities are entitled to notice of registration and are entitled to include their shares of common stock in the registration.

Limitations and Expenses. In the event that any registration in which the holders of Registrable Securities participate pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement is an underwritten public offering, the number of Registrable Securities to be included may, in specified circumstances, be limited due to market conditions. Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, the Issuer is required to pay all registration expenses, including the fees and expenses of one counsel to represent the selling holders, other than any underwriting discounts, selling commissions and similar discounts relating to underwriters or commissions related to sales, related to any demand or incidental registration.
